Usually the blood pressure will elevated in patients with acute ischemic stroke during the first 24 hours after the onset of symptoms, and the blood pressure levels are associated with the prognosis of patients. Regardless of trying to reduce or elevate blood pressure, the management of blood pressure in acute stroke is controversial. This article reviews the relations between the changes of blood pressure in the acute phase of ischemic stroke and the management of blood pressure and stroke prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) on intestinal motility disorder in rats with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in order to provide experimental evidence for improving clinical treatment to IBS with EA. Methods: IBS was induced by inserting a balloon into the rectum of male Sprague-Dawley rats from their neonatal age (8th, 21st day after birth) and applying colorectal distention stimulation by inflating air into the balloon. Peristaltic wave (PW) was used to estimate intestinal motility. Rats were divided into 4 groups (n=6): normal group, untreated group, sham EA group and EA group. Acupoints of Zusanli (ST36) and Shangjuxu (ST37) in the hind limbs bilaterally were chosen for EA and sham EA treatment. Trains of dense-sparse frequencies (100 Hz and 2 Hz alternately) and intensity of 1, 2 and 3 mA (10 min for each) were applied for 30 min with each EA treatment while inserting similar needles without electrical stimulation was done as sham EA treatment. PW recorded for 30 min in normal and untreated groups respectively was taken as control values, while PW recorded after EA or sham EA treatment for 30 min was taken as responsive values. Results: Frequency of PW was significantly increased in the untreated group as compared with that in the normal group (P<0.05), and decreased after 30-min EA treatment (P<0.05). There was no significant change in the PW of sham EA group as compared with the control group and before treatment (P>0.05). Conclusion: These results suggest that 1) there is an abnormal increase in intestinal motility indicating an intestinal motility disorder in IBS rats; 2) EA but not sham EA can relieve such intestinal motility disorder.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of Helicobacter pylori(Hp)infection in community patients. Methods:In July 2020,Three hundred and sixty outpatients with Hp infection confirmed by 14C breath test from August 2018 to July 2019 in Pengpuxincun community health service center of Jing′an District of Shanghai were selected by simple random sampling for a questionnaire survey. The contents of the questionnaire included general information, symptoms of digestive tract, awareness of disease hazards, frequency of dining out, Hp infection in family members. A total of 335 valid questionnaires were collected with a response rate of 93.06% (335/360). Results:Among 335 cases of Hp infection, 282 cases had clinical symptoms and 53 cases had no clinical symptoms. The infection rate of family members of Hp infected patients with and without clinical symptoms was 55.67% (157/282) and 56.60% (30/53) respectively (χ2=0.016, P>0.05). Belching was the most common symptom(27.09%,175/646), followed by abdominal distension(22.45%,145/646), acid reflux (17.03%,110/646), abdominal pain(14.86%), halitosis(14.55%). There was no significant difference in the frequency of halitosis, acid regurgitation, belching, abdominal distension and abdominal pain among the three groups(χ2=13.297, P>0.05). The Hp infection rate of family members with frequent or seldom out dining was 82.40% (103/125) and 40.00% (84/210), respectively, (χ2=57.122, P<0.05). The awareness rates of Hp hazard in patients with educational levels of primary school and below, junior high school, senior high school and junior college and above were 9.43% (5/53), 51.55% (50/97), 62.50% (65/104) and 87.65% (71/81), respectively(χ2=82.447, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the age distribution between males and females (χ2=1.155, P>0.05). Conclusion:It is necessary to strengthen the health management of Hp infected people and improve the awareness of Hp infection hazards among community residents to reduce Hp infection rate in the community.
