Objective: To explore the mechanism of cistanche deserticola(meat cistanche) in treating Alzheimer′s disease(AD) through network pharmacology, molecular docking, and animal experiments. Methods : Effective components of meat cistanche were mined from the TCMSP database, and AD-related targets were filtered using the SwissTargetPrediction, DisGeNET, and GeneCards databases. The intersection of these targets was analyzed using protein-protein interaction(PPI) networks. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were conducted via the Metascape database. Molecular docking of meat cistanche′s active components with core targets was performed using AutoDock Vina. Based on network pharmacology predictions, an AD model was established using 8-month-old SAMP8 mice, with Morris water maze tests assessing learning and cognitive functions, Nissl staining observing hippocampal neuron morphology, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and Western blotting detecting the expression levels of cAMP signaling pathway-related proteins in hippocampal tissues. Results : Network pharmacology analysis predicted that meat cistanche might act on 74 AD targets through 8 active components. Molecular docking showed high affinity of active components like acteoside with core targets such as ESR1, BDNF, MAPK1, and APP. KEGG analysis indicated involvement in pathways related to cancer, cAMP signaling, and AD. Animal experiments demonstrated that meat cistanche effectively improved learning and cognitive impairments in AD mice and alleviated hippocampal neuron damage. ELISA and Western blotting results indicated that meat cistanche significantly increased the expression levels of cAMP, PKA, P-CREB in the cAMP pathway and promoted the expression of downstream neurotrophic factor BDNF. Conclusion Meat cistanche can improve learning and cognitive disorders in AD model mice and may exert therapeutic effects on AD by up-regulating the cAMP signaling pathway and the expression of downstream BDNF protein targets, thereby improving hippocampal neuron injury.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of intracranial hemorrhage in elderly patients with acute occlusion of intracranial arteries after treatment and reperfusion.Methods:A retrospective selection was conducted on elderly patients with acute occlusion of the intracranial artery who were treated at the Hebei Petro China Central Hospital from February 2019 to May 2021. Sixty patients who received mechanical thrombectomy treatment were selected as the observation group, and 60 patients who received combined arterial and venous thrombolysis treatment were selected as the control group. The vascular reperfusion rate and incidence of intracranial hemorrhage were observed and compared between the two groups. Meanwhile, multiple logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influencing factors of intracranial hemorrhage.Results:The reperfusion rate of the observation group′s blood vessels was 85.00%(51/60), significantly higher than the control group′s 68.33%(41/60), and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=4.658, P=0.031). The National Institutes of Health Neurological Deficit Score (NIHSS) of the observation group after treatment was (10.57±2.23), significantly lower than that of the control group (14.73±2.84), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The reperfusion rate of blood vessels in patients under 80 years old in the observation group was significantly higher than that in patients ≥80 years old ( P<0.05). The results of univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in age, NIHSS at admission, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS), and neutrophil absolute value/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) between patients with and without intracranial hemorrhage (all P<0.05); Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=1.756, 95% CI: 1.184-2.604) and NIHSS at admission ( OR=2.392, 95% CI: 1.401-4.084) were risk factors for postoperative intracranial hemorrhage in elderly patients with acute occlusion of the large intracranial artery, while ASPECTS ( OR=0.364, 95% CI: 0.190-0.697) was a protective factor. Conclusions:Mechanical thrombectomy has good clinical efficacy in the treatment of elderly patients with acute occlusion of intracranial arteries, and is worthy of clinical use; The intracranial hemorrhage after reperfusion is mainly influenced by the patient′s age, NIHSS at admission, and ASPECTS.

Objective :To explore influence of CYP2C19 gene polymorphism on clopidogrel resistance after percutane‐ous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods :A total of 100 CHD pa‐tients ,who were treated and received PCI in our hospital ,were selected .There were 24 cases with clopidogrel re‐sistance (CR ,CR group) and 76 cases without CR (NCR ,NCR group).According to CYP2C19 genotype ,patients were divided into rapid metabolism CYP2C19*1／*1 (n＝49) ,medium metabolism CYP2C19*1／*2 (n＝28) and*1／*3 (n＝11) ,and slow metabolism CYP2C19*2／*2 (n＝9) and *2／*3 (n＝3).Relationship among differ‐ent genotypes ,CR ,maximum platelet aggregation rate (MPA) and incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were analyzed .Results :With rapid metabolism CYP2C19*1／*1 as the base ,there was significant rise in CR risk in medium metabolism (CYP2C19*1／*2 and *1／*3 ,OR＝4. 16 ,5. 03 , P＜0.05 both) and slow metab‐olism (CYP2C19*2／*2 and *2／*3 ,OR＝7.04 ,17. 6 , P＜0.01 both ) ,medium metabolism increased by 4. 16 and 5. 03 times respectively ,while slow metabolism increased by 7. 04 and 17. 60 times respectively .Compared with rapid metabolism genotype ,there were significant rise in MPA and incidence rate of MACE in medium and slow me‐tabolism genotypes , P＜0.05 or ＜0. 01 ;incidence rate of MACE in CR group was significantly higher than that of NCR group (20. 8% vs.5. 3%, P＝0.02).Conclusion : CYP2C19 gene polymorphism possesses certain influence on CR after PCI in CHD patients .Those with medium or slow metabolism genotypes are more likely to suffer from CR ,higher MPA and incidence rate of MACE .
