The level of RF, CRP, anti-CCP antibodies were also assessed in RA patients. Results The level of GPI was higher in RA patients [(2.4?5.0) ?g/ml] than that of normal control group [(0.12?0.14) ?g/ml (P

Objective BOLD-fMRI was used to observe the activated auditory cortex evoked by pure tone stimuli in patients with sensorineural hearing loss and this paper is to discuss the objective measure for patient with sensorineural hearing toss. Methods BOLD-fMRI examinations were taken in 22 patients with unilateral moderate to severe sensorneural hearing loss and 15 control subjects. The volumes and intensities of the two hemispheres of the activated auditory cortex were analyzed quantitatively. Results Significant activation was found in the temporal lobe in control subjects, and significant differences in the volume and intensity were noted between the contralateral and ipsilateral activated auditory cortexes in them (P<0.01), exhibiting clearly eontralateral predominance. When the normal ear of patients with sensorineural hearing loss received signals, there was no significant difference be-tween contralateral and ipsilateral activated auditory cortexes (P>0.05). Conclusion When the normal ear of pa-tients with sensorneural hearing loss was stimulated by pure tone, the contralateral hemisphere predominance disap-peared. This result seems to show the plasticity of auditory cortex of patients with unilateral hearing loss.

Objective To explore the short-term and long-term effects ofapplication of Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangioscopic Lithotripsy on the treatment of hepatolithiasis. Methods Eighty-threecases of hepatolithiasis were treated with the PTCSL and the other 87cases were treated with the Laparoscopic exploration lithotomy.The general clinical parameters , curative effect in the near future and long-term curative effect were anlyzed. Results No significant differences were found between the two groups in the general clinical parameters (P>0.05). The operation time,intraoperative blood transfusion volume and intraoperatve blood soss in group A were significantly shorter than those in group B(P<0.05, respectively). The original calculi residual rate was 2.4%, the eventually calculi residual rate was 4.8%and the recurrent cholangitis was4.8%in the model of PTCSL (Group A). The original calculi residual rate was 18.4%, the eventually calculi residual rate was 23.0% and the recurrent cholangitis was 23.0%in the model of Laparoscopic exploration lithotomy (Group B), with significant difference between these two groups (P<0.05). The calculi recurrence rate of group A was 12.0%,the calculi recurrence rate of group B was 22.9%,withno significant difference between these two group (P>0.05). No patients died in each group. The results of complications showed thatthe incidence of residual calculi of group A was significantly lower than that of group B (P<0.01). Conclusions Compared with the model of Laparoscopic exploration lithotomy, the PTCSL was more safe, minimally invasive and effective. The short-term efficacy of the model of PTCSL was better than that of the model of Laparoscopic exploration lithotomy.

Objective To investigate the effect of evidence-based nursing on the clinical curative effect and prognosis of patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.Methods 120 patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage were selected,and they were randomly divided into observation group(60 cases) and control group(60 cases) according to the digital table.The control group was treated with routine nursing,the observation group was treated with routine nursing and evidence-based nursing.Before and after nursing,the SDS,self rating anxiety scale (SAS),neurological deficit score NIHSS,Barthel score,the incidence of sequelae,hospitalization time,nursing quality score and patients’ satisfaction with nursing were compared between the two groups.Results There were no statistically significant differences in SDS,SAS,NIHSS and Barthel scores between the two groups before nursing intervention(all P ＞ 0.05).After nursing intervention,the SDS,SAS,NIHSS and Barthel scores of the observation group were (38.74 ± 6.21) points,(35.83 ± 8.17) points,(11.24 ± 3.08) points,(92.58 ± 6.46) points,respectively,which in the control group were (44.58 ± 7.10) points,(43.66 ± 8.06) points,(15.34 ± 3.29) points,(84.27 ± 5.82) points,there were significant differences between the two groups (t =4.796,5.285,7.047,7.403,all P ＜0.05).,The incidence rate of venous thrombosis,muscle atrophy and joint ankylosis sequelae of the observation group was 8.33％,which was lower than 40.00％ of the control group,there was significant difference between the two groups(x2 =16.415,P ＜ 0.05).The hospitalization time of the observation group was (9.55 ± 2.43)d,which was shorter than (15.97 ± 4.68) d of the control group (t =9.430,P ＜ 0.05).The health education nursing quality score,ward management score,basic nursing score,nursing care of critical patients score,nursing document writing score of the observation group were (97.66 ± 2.45) points,(98.23 ± 3.46) points,(97.54 ± 3.18) points,(96.88 ± 3.49) points,(98.76 ± 1.31)points,respectively,which were higher than those of the control group [(88.79 ± 2.37) points,(90.72 ±3.52) points,(91.05 ±3.16) points,(91.67 ± 5.34) points,(93.04 ± 1.12) points],there were significant differences between the two groups(t =20.156,11.786,11.214,6.326,25.707,all P ＜ 0.05).The patients’ nursing satisfaction of the observation group (96.67％) was higher than that of the control group (85.00％),there was significant difference between the two groups (x2 =4.904,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Evidence -based nursing can effectively relieve patients’ anxiety and depression of patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage,improve the quality of life of patients,reduce the incidence of complications,shorten the hospitalization time,improve patients'satisfaction.

Betulinic acids are lupine-type pentacyclic triterpenoid saponins commonly found in some plants of Betulaceae family, especially in the bark of betula alba (birch). The potent anti-HIV and anti-tumor activities of betulinic acids have been greatly concerned. The natural betulinic acids include betulinic acid, 23-hydroxy betulinic acid, betulin and so on. Some investigations on the structural modifications of betulinic acids were carried out, and many derivatives with excellent biological activity have been obtained nowadays. In this paper, the research advances of the structural modification of betulinic acids, as well as their anti-HIV and anti-tumor activities are reviewed.

Objective To investigate the effects of sinomenine on hind limb ischemia?reperfusion ( I∕R) injury and expression of Bcl?2 and Bax in skeletal muscle cells of rats. Methods Fifty?four healthy adult male Wistar rats, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 180-220 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=18 each) using a random number table: sham operation group ( group S) , group I∕R and sinomenine group ( group SIN) . The rats were subjected to 4 h of ischemia on the proximal part of the right hind limb using elastic rubber bands followed by reperfusion in I∕R and SIN groups. Sinomenine 60 mg∕kg was injected intraperito?neally at 30 min before reperfusion in group SIN, and the equal volume of normal saline was given instead of sinomenine at 30 min before reperfusion in S and I∕R groups. Immediately after onset of reperfusion and at 4 and 24 h of reperfusion, blood samples were collected from the cardiac apex to measure the concentra?tions of serum lactate dehydrogenase ( LDH) and creatine kinase ( CK) . The animals were sacrificed imme?diately after blood sampling, and the gastrocnemius specimens of the hind limb were immediately removed for determination of the wet to dry weight ratio ( W∕D ratio) and expression of Bcl?2 and Bax in gastrocnemi?us cells ( by immunohistochemistry) and for examination of the pathological changes after haematoxylin and eosin staining. The Bcl?2∕Bax ratio was calculated. Results Compared with group S, the gastrocnemius W∕D ratio and concentrations of serum LDH and CK were significantly increased, the expression of Bcl?2 was significantly down?regulated, the expression of Bax was significantly up?regulated, and the Bcl?2∕Bax
ratio was significantly decreased in I∕R and SIN groups ( P<0?05) . Compared with group I∕R, the gastroc?nemius W∕D ratio and concentrations of serum LDH and CK were significantly decreased, the expression of Bcl?2 was significantly up?regulated, the expression of Bax was significantly down?regulated, and the Bcl?2∕Bax ratio was significantly increased in group SIN ( P<0?05) . The pathological changes of the gastrocne?mius were significantly attenuated in group SIN as compared with group I∕R. Conclusion Sinomenine can attenuate hind limb I∕R injury, and the mechanism may be related to maintenance of the balance between Bcl?2 and Bax and to inhibition of apoptosis in skeletal muscle cells of rats.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the therapeutic effect of early use of alprostadil and the effects on PTX-3,renal function and stability of carotid plaque in patients with acute cerebral infarction. METHODS:93 patients with acute cerebral infarction in our hospital from Aug. 2011 to Aug. 2015 were selected,and divided into observation group(47 cases,2 case withdrew from the test and 45 cases completed the test)and control group(46 cases,1 case withdrew from the test and 45 cases completed the test) by odd and even number of registration order. Control group was given Citicoline sodium injection 0.5 g + Extract of ginkgo biloba leaves injection 20 ml added into Sodium chloride injection(NS)250 ml,ivgtt,qd;observation group was additionally given Al-prostadil injection 20 μg added to NS 250 ml,ivgtt,qd. They were treated for 2 weeks. Clinical efficacy,and the differences of PTX-3,blood urea nitrogen(BUN),serum creatinine(SCr),24 h urinary protein(Upro),stability of carotid plaque before and after treatment,and the incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:The total effective rate in observation group(91.1%)was higher than control group(73.3%),the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). There was no statisti-cal significance in PTX-3,BUN,SCr,24 h Upro between 2 groups before treatment (P>0.05). After treatment,PTX-3,BUN, SCr,24 h Upro in 2 groups decreased,and observation group was lower than control group;stability of carotid plaque in observa-tion group(100.0%)was higher than control group(64.0%),the differences were no statistically significant(P<0.05). The ad-verse reactions in 2 groups relieved themselves with no special treatment,and with no statistical significant(P>0.05). CONCLU-SIONS:The early use of alprostadil is effective for acate cerebral in farction,and can obviously reduce PTX-3 and improve renal functions,increase stability of carotid plaque with good safety.
