Objective To investigate the treatment effect of fasudilon inflammatory bowel disease ( IBD) in rats. IBD was induced by using an enema of trinitro-benzene-sulfonic acid ( TNBS ) . Methods A total of 30 female SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group (0. 9% sodium chloride for induction and 0. 9% sodium chloride for treatment), model control group (TNBS for induction and 0. 9% sodium chloride for treatment), and fasudil group (TNBS for induction and fasudil 4. 5 mg·kg-1 for treatment). The disease activity index(DAI) was estimated 14 days later. The MPO activity, TNF-αcontent and IL-1β level in the colon were investigated, while Rho kinase expression was detected by Western blot. The pathological changes were detected by HE staining. Results The DAI of the normal control, model control, and fasudil groups were:(0. 00±0. 00),(7. 76±1. 32),and (3. 20±0. 98), respectively. MPO activity was (59. 32±9. 08),(96. 65±16. 57),and (69. 58±11. 40) U·g-1, respectively. TNF-α was (0. 15±0. 11),(0. 28±0. 22),and (0. 20±0. 62) ng·mL-1, respectively. IL-1β content was (0. 04±0. 01),(0. 08±0. 02),and (0. 06±0. 02) ng·mL-1, respectively. Rho kinase expression was 0. 713± 0. 170,1. 083±0. 210,and 0. 907±0. 260, respectively. Conclusion Fasudil excerts protective effects against IBD in rats by lowering the expression of Rho kinase and attenuating the release of inflammatory mediators, suggesting that Rho kinase could be a new therapeutic target for IBD.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors and effectiveness of community follow-up in patients with cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation.Method:A total of 132 patients who received CIED implantation in the Department of Cardiology of Tongren Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from February 2021 to February 2022 were enrolled in this prospective cohort study. Among them 33 patients were followed up in community health service centers associated with Tongren Hospital (community follow-up group) and 99 matched patients were followed up in the CIED outpatient clinic of the hospital (outpatient follow-up group) with a ratio of 1∶3. The clinical data of the selected patients were collected through a questionnaire survey; the follow-up data were extracted through the CarelinkExpress electronic follow-up platform and the CIED outpatient information system of Tongren Hospital. Adjustment of the treatment protocol or CIED parameters at follow-up, and the referral from the community health service centers were defined as visit with-an-action (VWA). The endpoint of follow-up was the occurrence of major adverse events. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors influencing patient selection for community follow-up.Results:The univariate analysis showed that the frequency of visits to community health service centers and the service contracting rate in community follow-up group were higher than those of outpatient follow-up group ( P<0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the contracted community physician service was an independent influencing factor of patient choosing community follow-up ( OR=2.143, 95% CI: 1.103-4.166, P=0.025). A total of 469 visits of followed up occurred in 132 patients, including 45 community visits and 424 outpatient visits. VWA accounted for 22.2% (10/45) in the community follow-up group, and 17.2% (73/424) in the outpatient follow-up group ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the safety and effectiveness indicators (VWA, major adverse events, and unplanned follow-up) between the two groups ( P>0.05). More patients in the community follow-up group walked to the hospital than the outpatient follow-up group ( P<0.05);and the main transportation for the later was by bus or taxi(42(42.4%)or 41(41.4%)). The average waiting time in the community follow-up group was significantly shorter than that in outpatient follow-up group ( P<0.05). The total time required for a single follow-up in the community follow-up group was 50.0 (45.0, 59.5) minutes, which was significantly shorter than that in the routine outpatient follow-up group (107.0 (90.0, 135.0) minutes, P<0.05). Conclusions:The contracting with community physicians is an independent influencing factor for CIED implanted patients to choose community follow-up. The safety and effectiveness of community follow-up are comparable to routine outpatient follow-up, and community follow-up is more convenient.

As the guiding theory for the diagnosis and treatment of encephalopathy in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), The marrow sea theory has important theoretical connotation and clinical value. This paper summarized the clinical research literature on the differentiation and treatment of common encephalopathy based on the marrow sea theory published in recent years, analyzed the treatment method and effects from eight aspects in terms of stroke, dizziness, insomnia, headache, constraint syndrome, dementia, tremor syndrome, and atrophy syndrome, and discussed the possible mechanism based on the relevant basic research. It is believed that marrow sea depletion is the common pathogenesis of encephalopathy in TCM. Guided by the method of supplementing essence and boosting marrow, the corresponding formulas and medicinals are recommended in accordance with differentiated syndromes, which can effectively improve the symptoms of the disease, delay the progression, increase the daily life ability of the patients, and improve the quality of life. Based on the marrow sea theory, the method of supplementing essence and boosting marrow, rectifying healthy qi and dispelling pathogen can be used to highlight the advantages of TCM and provide ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of encephalopathy in TCM.
