Aging is an inevitable, physiological process of the human body, leading to deterioration in bodily function and increased susceptibility to various diseases. Effective endogenous therapeutic strategies for anti-aging and related diseases remain limited. Exercise confers multifaceted benefits to physical health by augmenting osteogenic and myogenic processes, enhancing cardiovascular and nervous system function, and attenuating chronic inflammation. Angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis play pivotal roles in anti-aging, tissue repair, and immune response modulation, underscoring their potential as therapeutic targets for age-related diseases. Modulating angiogenic and lymphangiogenic pathways may provide a promising strategy for mitigating vascular decline and immune system dysfunction associated with aging. Exercise-induced endogenous angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis can exert beneficial effects on physiological function, thereby representing a potential therapeutic paradigm for combating age-related decline and diseases. This review offers a thorough summary of the present knowledge regarding angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis induced by exercise, encompassing the underlying mechanisms and the effects in different organs. In addition, it explores the potential of physical activity as a non-pharmacological intervention for anti-aging strategies and disease management, offering novel insights into the intersection of physical activity, aging, and disease progression.

Objective To evaluate the impact of the re-modified Sugiura procedure on portal hemodynamics and liver function in cirrhotic patients with portal hypertension.Methods Forty patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension who underwent the re-modified Sugiura procedure in the Yichang Second People's Hospital from June 2006 to October 2014 were studied.Changes in the free portal pressure (FPP),portal venous flow (PVF) and liver functions before and after operation were analyzed.Results (1) The FPP at different phases of the operation (after opening the abdomen,after splenectomy,and after devascularization) were (43.2 ± 1.8) cmH2O,(34.8 ± 1.6) cmH2O and (35.2 ± 1.7) cmH2O,respectively.There were significant differences in FPP between the phases of after splenectomy and after opening the abdomen,as well as after devascularization and after opening the abdomen (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in FPP between after devascularization and after splenectomy (P ＞ O.05).(2) The PVF,which were measured with Doppler sonography at 4 time points (preoperative 1 day,postoperative 10 days,postoperative 6 months,postoperative 18 months),were (1 420.4 ± 137.7) ml/min,(1 205.2 ± 126.7) ml/min,(875.8 ± 118.0) ml/min and (893.8 ± 114.7) n1/min,respectively.There were significant differences in PVF between postoperative 10 days and preoperative 1 day,between postoperative 6 months and postoperative 10 days,as well as between postoperative 18 months and preoperative 1 day (P ＜0.05).There was no significant difference in PVF between postoperative 18 months and postoperative 6 months (P ＞0.05).(3)The liver functions were evaluated using the Child-Pugh score at 4 time points (preoperative 1 day,postoperative 10 days,postoperative 6 months,postoperative 18 months).There were no significant differences among the time points,(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The re-modified Sugiura's procedure durably,appropriately and effectively reduced the PVF and FPP,but it did not have any negative effects on the liver functions of patients with cirrhosis.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics ,treatment and outcome of Ebola virus disease so as to provide early clinical recognition and treatment for this disease .Methods The clinical manifestations and treatment of 5 cases of Ebola virus disease in Ebola Holding Center of Sierra‐Leone China Friendship Hospital from 15 March 2015 to 15 May 2015 were retrospectively analyzed .And the clinical characteristics and possible effective treatment were discussed combined with related literature . Results Five patients were diagnosed with Ebola virus disease by polymerase chain reaction and 4 cases of 5 patients had confirmed contact history ,while 1 case had no clear contact history .All the 5 cases presented with low fever ,headache and joint pain .Three cases then progressed into severe gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea ,vomiting ,diarrhea and hypovolemic shock .The patients presented with fast heart rate and shortness of breath and other inflammatory response syndrome in acute phase .One patient rapidly progressed to liver pain ,jaundice and anuria ,then died .Three severe cases recovered after treated with fluid resuscitation ,circulation maintenance and electrolyte balance in acute phase .Conclusions The early symptoms of Ebola virus disease are low fever ,joint pain and nausea .Frequent vomiting ,diarrhea , low blood pressure and electrolyte disorder indicate severe conditions .Shock and electrolyte disorder are deadly complications .Early recognition ,diagnosis and treatment are the key to improve the prognosis .

Objective To optimize prescription for double-layered Erhuang sustained-release suppository. Methods Amounts of PEG400, PEG4000, HPMC were selected as influence factors for L9(34) orthogonal experiment. A comprehensive assessment was conducted by setting the cumulative release degree at three different time points as index, and the inner and outer layers of double-layered Erhuang sustained-release suppository were optimized. Results The best prescription was the inner HPMC∶PEG4000∶PEG400=1.5∶10∶4;outer HPMC∶PEG4000∶PEG400=0.5∶10∶4. Conclusion Prescription for double-layered Erhuang sustained-release suppository has good forming property and a good sustained-release effect according to the optimized prescription, which has certain reference value for researches and development of TCM suppository.

Objective To analyse the therapeutic effect and safety of radiofrequency thermocoagulation on refractory neuralgia after craniotomy.MethodsFourteen patients with refractory neuralgia after craniotomy were treated by radiofrequency thermocoagulation. The pain degree (Numeric Rating Scales, NRS) and the complication were observed.ResultsNRS decreased significantly after treatment(P<0.01). No serious complication was observed after radiofrequency thermocoagulation except numbness. No patients recurred after one year follow-up.ConclusionRadiofrequency thermocoagulation is effective on refractory neuralgia after craniotomy.

Objective To investigate the effect of radiofrequency on trigeminal neuralgia as the chief complaint of intracranial benign tumor. Methods 18 patients with intracranial benign tumor mainly presenting with trigeminal neuralgia were treated with radiofrequency thermocoagulation guided by CT scanning. The numeric rating scales (NRS) of pain and the complication were observed. Results The scores of NRS decreased significantly after treatment (P<0.01). The common complications included facial numbness and masticatory movement obstacle. One patient recurred 13 months and another patient recurred 24 months after operation. Both were treated with radiofrequency once again, and the pain ceased. Conclusion Radiofrequency is effective on secondary trigeminal neuralgia after intracranial benign tumor.
