Objective To investigate the long-term outcome of intra-arterial thrombolysis in patients with acute ischemic stroke and its influencing factors.Methods Patients with acute ischemic stroke received intra-arterial thrombolysis were included in the study.The neurological outcome at day 90 was assessed using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS).They were divided into the good outcome group (mRS scores,0 to 2) and the poor outcome group (mRS scores,3 to 6)according to the evaluation results; the degree of recanalization after thrombolysis was assessed by the grading criteria of the Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) trial; the incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage within 7 days after thrombolytic therapy and the mortality at 3months were recorded.Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to screen the influencing factors of long-term outcome of arterial thrombolysis.Results A total of 42 patients were included,of them,19 (45.2％) with good outcome and 23 (54.8％) with poor outcome after intra-arterial thrombolysis; 27 patients (64.5％ ) with good recanalization (TIMI grade,2 to 3); 13 patients (31.0％) occurred intracranial hemorrhage within 7 days,and 8 of them (19.0％ ) had symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage; 11 (26.2％ ) died within 90 days.Univariate analysis showed that the baseline blood glucose levels (P=0.019),the baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores (P =0.014),symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (P =0.005),and the degree of recanalization (P =0.002) could influence the longterm outcome of patients with intra-arterial thrombolysis.Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the lower level of basdine glucose and good recanalization were the independent predictive factors of the good long-term outcome after intra-arterial thrombolysis in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Conclusion After the exclusion of contraindications,the intra-arterial thrombolysis was safe and effective for patients with acute ischemic stroke.The lower blood glucose levels on admission and the good recanalization after thrombolysis were associated with the good long-term outcome of intm-arterial thrombolysis.

Objective:To investigate the effects of sodium phenylbutyrate(NaPB) on the matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1(TIMP-1) expression and invasive ability of human thyroid follicular carcinoma cell line CGTHW-1.Methods: CGTHW-1 cells were treated with different concentrations of NaPB,then the invasive ability of CGTHW-1 cells was assessed using Transwell assay.The expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 was examined by immunocytochemistry staining and RT-PCR in CGTHW-1 cells.Results: After treatment with NaPB(4 mmol/L) for 72 h,CGTHW-1 cells passing the Transwell were significantly reduced[(29.8?1.77) vs(11.00?2.59),P

Objective:To evaluate the effects of smokeless tobacco extract(ST) on number,morphology,ultrastructure and proliferation of human gingival fibroblasts(HGFs) on titanium in vitro.Methods:HGFs on titanium were cultured in the presence of ST at various concentrations.The cell changes in the morphology and ultrastructure were examined by scanning electrical microscope(SEM).The growth and attachment of the cells were measured by MTT method.Results:The size of the cells became smaller gradually and their shapes changed from spindle type to oval or round when the concentrations of ST increased.Ultrastructure showed that pseudopod decreased in number,the growth and attachment were dose-dependently inhibited.Conclusion:ST can change number,morphology and ultrastructure of HGFs on titanium,they can inhibit the cells growth,suggesting ST may play a pathological role on implant-gingiva interface.

In the past, panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) and vitrectomy (PPV) were the main treatments for proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). In recent years, anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drugs have been used more and more widely in PDR due to their advantages in rapidly subtracting new blood vessels, reducing leakage, and promoting the absorption of blood. The combination of anti-VEGF drugs and PRP in the treatment of PDR, especially high-risk PDR, can increase the rate of neovascularization and prevent some patients with mild to moderate vitreous hemorrhage from PPV. The application of anti-VEGF drugs during the perioperative period of PPV can also reduce bleeding during the operation, shorten the operation time, and reduce surgical complications. Although clinical studies have confirmed that anti-VEGF drugs can be used as an alternative treatment for PRP, most patients require multiple and long-term treatments, which increase the psychological and economic burden of patients. It is expected that the cost of anti-VEGF drugs and the development of long-acting dosage forms can be reduced and bring better efficacy and benefits to PDR patients in the future.

Objective To assess the accuracy of ultrasonographic measurement of gastric fluid volume in predicting the occurrence of nausea and vomiting during and after emergency cesarean section.Methods Seventyseven ASA Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients aged 18-35 yr weighing 66-87 kg undergoing emergency cesarean section were divided into 3 groups according to the preoperative gastric fluid volume:group A ≤ 0.4 ml/kg (n =21); group B 0.4-0.8ml/kg (n =34) and group C ＞ 0.8 ml/kg (n =22).Gastric fluid volume was calculated by Bouvet regression equation,based on antral area of the stomach measured with M-Turbo ultrasonography system (Somo Site Co.USA).Cesarean section was performed under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia with 0.4％ ropivacaine.BP,HR and SpO2 were measured and recorded after entering the operating room,at skin incision and at the end of operation.The occurrence of nausea and vomiting was recorded during operation and within 1 h after operation.Results There was no significant difference in hemodynamic variables among the 3 groups.The incidence of nausea was comparable among the 3 groups:33％ in group A,35％ in group B and 46％ in group C,while the incidence of vomiting was significantly higher in group C (46％) than in group A (10％) and group B (15％).Conclusion The incidence of vomiting is significantly higher during and within 1 h after emergency cesarean section in patients with preoperative gastric fluid volume ＞ 0.8 ml/kg,but the incidence of nausea is not related to preoperative gastric fluid volume.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine injected into axillary sheath in alleviating the tourniquet pain during brachial plexus block with ropivacaine.Methods Sixty ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 18-60 yr,weighing 52-85 kg,scheduled for the replantation of amputated finger,were randomly divided into 2 equal groups (n =30 each):ropivacaine group (group R) and dexmedetomidine mixed with ropivacaine group (group DR).All patients underwent axillary brachial plexus block guided by a nerve stimulator.When the intensity of electric stimulation ≤ 0.4 mA,flexion of fingers or wrist still existed,and the local anesthetic was injected into the axillary sheath.0.5％ ropivacaine 40ml was injected in group R.0.5％ ropivacaine mixed with 100μg dexmedetomidine 40ml was injected in group DR.The pressure of inflation was set at 200-250mmHg,and the stress duration was 120 min.Tourniquet pain and the level that the patients could tolerate was evaluated using visual analog scale (VAS) at 120 min of stress status.The patient' s satisfaction with anesthesia was rated and the development of adverse cadiovascular events and local and systemic adverse reactions were recorded.Excessive sedation was measured with Ramsay score in group DR.Results Compared with group R,the tourniquet pain that the patients could tolerate was significantly increased,the severity of tourniquet pain was reduced and the incidence of adverse cadiovascular events was decreased in group DR (P ＜ 0.01).No serious tourniquet-related complications were observed in both groups.No patients developed excessive sedation in group DR.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine 100μg injected into the axillary sheath can safely and effectively alleviate the tourniquet pain when used during brachial plexus block with ropivacaine.

Objective To investigate the applied value of adipose-derived stromal cells(ADSCs) transfected glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor(GDNF)by lentivirus in cerebral transplantation.Methods Primarily isolated and cultured, the rat ADSCs were transfected GDNF by high-titer lentivirus. Then, configuration of cells and expression of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) were observed. By stereotaxic frame, transfected ADSCs were intrastriatally transplanted.1month and 2month after transplantation, survival and migration of marked cells were detected. GDNF expression, verified by Western blot, was compared with control group.Results ADSCs, transfected by lentivirus, can differentiate into neuron-like cells and express NSE in cytolymph. 1 month after transplantation, the majority of cells survived in transplanting area. 2 month later, part of transplanted cells still survived and migrated far from the transplanting area. In addition, the level of GDNF protein in the brain tissue was significantly higher compared with control group (all P
