Objective To study the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of Baihuadan Analgesic Spray, so as to provide theoretical basis for further development of new drugs. Methods Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in the inflammatory tissues of mice with xylene-induced auricular inflammation and in the rats with albumen-induced pedal swelling were measured for the observation of anti-inflammation action of Baihuadan Analgesic Spray. The pain threshold in mouse hot-plate test and mouse acetic acid writhing test was determined to observe the analgesic effect of Baihuadan Analgesic Spray. Results Middle dose of Baihuadan Analgesic Spray (1 mg/mL) significantly reduced the auricular swelling rate induced by xylene in mice, improved the pain threshold of mice and prolonged pain latency in hot plate test (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). High dose of Baihuadan Analgesic Spray (2 mg/mL) reduced the content of PGE2 in pedal inflammatory tissues (P < 0.05), and the effect on reducing the times of mouse writhing was obviously superior to that of the Voltaren Gel group. Conclusion Baihuadan Analgesic Spray has obvious anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

Objective To establish animal models of functional dyspepsia with spleen deficiency and to compare the efficacy of different methods.Methods Rat models were established by iodoacetamide(IA)-treatment or combined with swimming.Appearance,body weight,food intake of the rats were observed,and serum motilin,cholecystokinin,lactate,gastrin content and urinary D-xylose excretion rates were detected to confirm whether the model of functional dyspepsia with spleen deficiency was established.Results The IA-treated rats had less food intake and a slower body weight gain.The IA-treated combined with swimming rats presented spleen-hypofunction symptoms,such as emaciation,hair dry and loose stools,their urinary D-xylose excretion rate,serum motilin,gastrin content were decreased,and serum cholecystokinin and lactate contents were increased significantly (P<0.05 for all).Conclusions All the three methods used in this study can result in symptoms of functional dyspepsia with spleen deficiency.However,IA-treatment combined with swimming models appear more close to spleen deficiency-like presentation,and the best model is the IA-treated combined with platform standing.

OBJECTIVETo verify whether the extracellular domain of kinase domain region (KDR) has anti-angiogenesis activity in vivo.

METHODScDNA was cloned into adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector pSNAV and transfected to baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells. Recombinant AAV was obtained from the cell culture supernatant after adding helper virus. Recombinant AAV-infected human bladder cancer EJ cell line (EJ cells) were injected subcutaneously into Balb-c nude mice. Tumor specimens were removed from the mice, paraffin-embedded and sliced, then stained by immunohistochemistry. Microvessel density (MVD) was determined under a microscope.

RESULTSThe tumor volume developed by EJ cells transfected with the extracellular domain of KDR was significantly smaller (1.70 +/- 0.18 cm(3)) compared with that in the control (5.62 +/- 0.67 cm(3)) (P < 0.05), although tumor developed to be detectable on almost the same time (14.7 +/- 2.4 days vs 14.1 +/- 3.2 days). Further, MVD in the experimental group was lower than that in the control (41.3 +/- 4.8 vs 6.2 +/- 2.1, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe extracellular domain of KDR could be expressed in nude mouse bladder cancer tissue and inhibit tumor angiogenesis.

Objective:This study sought to investigate the feasibility, anatomical indications and operating points of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedure in the treatment of pure aortic regurgitation (AR).Methods:The medical records of 4 elderly patients with pure AR who were treated in the cardiology department, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from March 2020 to March 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were implanted with self-expandable valve stents via peripheral artery approach for TAVR treatment. The feasibility, anatomical indications and key points of TAVR were analyzed.Results:The 4 patients with pure AR who were carefully screened had an average age of 66 years, and all achieved TAVR treatment success without serious perioperative complications and death. Postoperative examination and follow-up data showed that cardiac functions and cardiac remodeling indexes were significantly improved.Conclusions:This exploratory study shows that TAVR is technically feasible and effective treatment option for selected elderly patients with native pure AR, which is worthy of further study.

Objective To determine the incidence and clinical features of headache after carotid endarterectomy (CEA).Methods A retrospective analysis was made on the data of patients undergoing CEA in the Department of Vascular Surgery,Peking Union Medical College Hospital from Jan 2014 to Jan 2015.There were 119 males and 24 females,including 97 cases of symptomatic carotid stenosis and 110 cases of severe carotid stenosis.Results The incidence of newly emergent headache after surgery was 44％ (63/143).The earliest time of headache was 30 minutes after surgery and the latest was 6 days after surgery.95％ of headache occurred within 48 hours after surgery (60/63).79.4％ (50/63) of the headache lay ipsilaterally with CEA,and bilateral headache accounted for 20.6％ (13/63).Severe headache accounted for 4.8％ (3/63),all were ipsilaterally frontal and temporal headache,complicating central nervous system symptoms.Conclusions After CEA headache is a common clinical symptom.Most were mild to moderate and unilateral,which can be relieved spontaneously.Cerebral hemodynamics need to be further examined to differentiate the different pathological states of severe headache on the operative side after CEA because of the high risk of developing hyperperfusion syndrome or cerebral infarction.History of TIA or stroke is the risk factor of post-CEA headache.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of sodium hyaluronate gel in preventing adhesion after prophylactic enterostomy.Methods:One hundred and twenty four patients from 6 hospitals were enrolled in this prospective multi-center randomized controlled trial. Patients were randomized into the study group ( n=59) or the control group ( n=65).All patients underwent prophylactic enterostomy. Patients of study group received odium hyaluronate gel for adhesion-prevention,while those in control group did not receive any adhesion-prevention treatment. The incidence of moderate to severe adhesion around the incision in the stoma area were evalutated during stoma reduction surgery. Results:The incidence of moderate to severe adhesion around the incision in the stoma area was 6.3% in the study group, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) compared to that of the control group (32.6%). Conclusion:Sodium hyaluronate gel can safely and effectively reduce the incidence of moderate and severe adhesions after abdominal surgery.
