Objective To observe the effect of Chinese medicine Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong Ⅰ/Ⅱ mixture on the knee joint function disorder after fracture.Methods 143 patients with knee joint function disorder after fracture were randomly divided into the treatment group(n=50),control Ⅰ group(n=48),control Ⅱ group(n=45).The cases of the treatment group were treated with Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong Ⅰ mixture 150 ml three times per day orally,Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong Ⅱ mixture exteral washing once every day,and combined with Honghua oil and TDP instrument therapy.The cases of the control Ⅰ group were treated with the prepared medicine Shenjin Dan 6 pieces,three times a day,combined with Honghua oil and TDP instrument therapy.The cases of the control Ⅱ group were treated only with Honghua oil and TDP instrument therapy.15 days were as a treatment course,and performed 1~2 treatment courses.The patients of the three groups also took the vitamins and calcitium simultaneously.The curative effect was evaluated according to the standard of Lysholm Joint Function.Results After treatment,the total excellent rates of the treatment group,control Ⅰ group and control Ⅱ group were 78%,39.58% and 24.44%,respectively,the result of the treatment group was significantly superior to that of the control Ⅰ group and control Ⅱgroup(P<001).The total effective rates of the treatment group,control Ⅰ group and control Ⅱ group were 98%,85.42% and 75.55%,respectively.The effect of the treatment group was also significantly superior that of the control Ⅰ group(P<0.05) and control Ⅱ group( P<0.01).Conclusion The Chinese native medicine Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong Ⅰ/Ⅱ mixture has an obvious therapeutic effect in the multidisciplinary therapies on the knee joint function disorder after fracture.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of citrate anticoagulation for continuous renal placement therapy (CRRT) in patients at high risk of bleeding. Methods Forty-seven patients who needed to CRRT and were admitted into the department of critical care medicine from January 2015 to October 2016 were enrolled in this study. According to the patient′s actual condition, they were divided into citrate groups (24 cases) and saline group (23 cases). Patients in saline group were given saline wash. The efficacy and safety were compared between the two groups. The filter lifetime, after treatment the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), hemoglobin (Hb), blood gas indexes were compared between the two groups. Results The citrate group used 76 filters while the 0.9% sodium chloride group used 87 filters. The average filter lifetime in citrate group was (22.4 ± 12.7) h which was longer than (8.6±3.3) h in 0.9%sodium chloride group (t=9.79, P<0.01). The incidence of coagulation in extracorporeal circulation was 3.9%(3/76) which was lower than 16.1%(14/87) in 0.9%sodium chloride group(χ2=5.20, P<0.05). Conclusions Regional citrate anticoagulation is a safe and effective option for CRRT in patients at high risk of bleeding.

The effects of antisense FosB and CREB intra-striatum injection on the expression of prodynorphin (PDyn) gene in striatal neurons of Levodopa-induced dyskinesias (LID) rats with Parkinson disease (PD) were explored. PD model in rats was established by 6-OHDA microinjection stereotaxically. The rats were treated with chronic intermittent Levodopa celiac injection for 28 days to get the LID rats. Antisense FosB and cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) were injected into striatum of all rats respectively. In situ hybridization was used to measure the changes in the expression of PDyn mRNA in striatum and behavior changes were observed. The results showed after administration of antisense FosB, abnormal involuntary movement (AIM) was decreased and the expression of PDyn mRNA in striatum was increased in LID rats as compared with sense FosB group (P<0.01, respectively). As compared with the control group, the expression of PDyn mRNA in striatum was decreased by antisense CREB-treated LID group (P<0.01) and compared with sense CREB treated LID group, antisense CREB-treated LID group showed no changes in AIM scores and the expressions of PDyn mRNA (both P>0.05). In conclusion, FosB protein, which replaced the CREG, could regulate the expression of PDyn mRNA and play critical role in the pathogenesis of LID.

Background Monosodium L-glutamate (MSG) is a food flavour enhancer and its potential harmfulness to the heart remains controversial.We investigated whether MSG could induce cardiac arrhythmias and apoptosis via the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor.Methods Myocardial infarction (MI) was created by ligating the coronary artery and ventricular arrhythmias were monitored by electrocardiogram in the rat in vivo.Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were isolated and cultured.Cell viability was estimated by 3-(4,5)-dimethylthiahiazo(-z-yl)-3,5-di-phenytetrazoliumromide (MTT) assay.Calcium mobilization was monitored by confocal microscopy.Cardiomyocyte apoptosis was evaluated by acridine orange staining,flow cytometry,DNA laddering,reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blotting.Results MSG (i.v.) decreased the heart rate at 0.5 g/kg and serious bradycardia at 1.5 g/kg,but could not induce ventricular tachyarrhythmias in normal rats in vivo.In rats with acute MI in vivo,however,MSG (1.5 g/kg,i.v.) induced ventricular tachyarrhythmias and these arrhythmias could be prevented by blocking the AMPA and N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors.Selectively activating the AMPA or NMDA receptor induced ventricular tachyarrhythmias in MI rats.At the cellular level,AMPA induced calcium mobilization,oxidative stress,mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis in cultured cardiomyocytes,especially when the AMPA receptor desensitization were blocked by cyclothiazide.The above toxic cellular effects of AMPA were abolished by AMPA receptor blockade or by H2O2 scavengers.Conclusions MSG induces bradycardia in normal rats,but triggers lethal tachyarrhythmias in myocardial infarcted rats probably by hindering AMPA receptors.AMPA receptor overstimulation also induces cardiomyocyte apoptosis,which may facilitate arrhythmia.
