Objective:To study the effects of Shengui Jiajian Pills on myocardial fibrosis and the transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)/Smads signaling pathway in elderly rats with hypothyroidism; To preliminarily explore the mechanism of Shengui Jiajian Pills in treating hypothyroid heart disease through the TGF-β1/Smads pathway.Methods:Totally 60 SD rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group, sodium levothyroxine group, and Shengui Jiajian Pills low-, medium-, and high-dosage groups, with 10 rats in each group. A model of elderly hypothyroid heart injury in rats was prepared by freely drinking 0.1% propylthiouracil (PTU) for 10 weeks. Each group of rats was gavaged with the corresponding drug once a day for 6 weeks. After the last gastric lavage, an electrocardiogram was performed, hematoxylin-eosin staining (HE) was used to observe pathological changes in the heart tissue; bitter acid-toluidine blue staining was used to detect fibrosis of the heart tissue; TUNEL staining was used to observe myocardial cell apoptosis; Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the levels of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4) in the serum, as well as brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), creatine kinase isoenzymes MB (CK-MB), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH); Western blot was used to detect the relative expressions of TGF-β1, p-Smad2, p-Smad3, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), TIMP1, Bax, and Caspase-3 in the heart tissue; and immunofluorescence was used to detect the positive expressions of TGF-β1, Smad3, α-SMA, and MMP-1 in the heart tissue.Results:Compared with the model group, the inflammatory cell infiltration and cell damage in the heart of rats in each dosage group of Shengui Jiajian Pills were improved, the myocardial fibrosis area ratio was significantly reduced ( P<0.05), and the myocardial cell apoptosis rate significantly decreased ( P<0.05), the levels of TSH, BNP, CLD, and HK-MB in serum significantly decreased ( P<0.05). The levels of FT3 and FT4 increased in the Shengui Jiajian Pills medium- and high-dosage groups ( P<0.05), while the positive expressions of TGF-β1, Smad3, α-SMA, and MMP-1 decreased ( P<0.05). The protein expression of TGF-β1, p-Smad3, MMP-1, Bax, and Caspase-3 decreased ( P<0.05), and the expression of TIMP-1 increased ( P<0.05). The expression of Smad7 increased in the Shengui Jiajian Pills medium-dosage group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Shengui Jiajian Pills may reduce myocardial collagen fiber deposition by modulating the TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway, thereby partially reversing the pathological features of hypothyroidism-induced myocardial injury, with more pronounced effects observed in the medium and high dosage groups.

At present,mechanical thrombectomy(MT)is the most effective means of achieving vascular recanalization in treating acute ischemic stroke(AIS)caused by large vessel occlusion.However,the monitoring and management of the patient's complications after MT has become a thorny clinical problem and it has attracted wide attention.Being of its non-invasive,flexible and quick diagnosis,and other advantages,the neurosonography has already established a perfect system in the evaluation and monitoring field of cerebral hemodynamic and structural pathology.With the innovation in technology and equipment,the guiding mode for non-invasive monitoring of intracranial pressure,autoregulation of cerebral blood flow,monitoring of intracranial hemorrhage and detection of other space-occupying lesions has been used for AIS patients,which has gradually become an important tool for the postoperative management of MT.This paper aims to make a comprehensive review about the application of neurosonography monitoring technology in AIS patients after MT,so as to provide a basis for the clinical implementation of prospective interventions,to enable AIS patients to obtain the maximum benefits from the postoperative management of MT,and to reduce the mortality of AIS patients.

Neuropathic pain is a clinical symptom with complex mechanisms and high incidence. The commonly used analgesics have limited efficacy and can cause serious side effects. The theory of chronic pain entering collaterals was proposed by YE Tianshi， a famous physician focusing on warm diseases in the Qing dynasty， on the basis of the ancient therapies for pain. This theory is particularly suitable for the diagnosis and treatment of neuropathic pain in view of the clinical course and manifestations. The chronic neuropathic pain can enter the Yin collateral in deeper sites. The pathogenesis of neuropathic pain is summarized as a deficiency in origin and excess in superficiality. The root cause is the dysfunction of Zang-Fu organs， mainly the liver, kidney and heart， while the superficial causes are phlegm and stasis caused by the obstructed Qi and blood movement due to the consumption of Qi and blood in collaterals. Accordingly， the therapies such as dispelling blood stasis， resolving phlegm， and dredging collaterals should be adopted. This paper expounds the traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） pathogenesis and treatment of neuropathic pain， enriching the knowledge and providing new ideas for the TCM prevention and treatment of this disease as a collateral disease.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of pneumovesicoscopic Cohen and Politano-Leadbetter procedures in the treatment of vesicoureteral junction obstruction (VUJO) in children.Methods:The data of 48 children with VUJO who underwent operations in the Department of Urology, Anhui Provincial Children′s Hospital from January 2017 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the operation time, the patients were divided into the pneumovesicoscopic Cohen group(group C) (28 cases) and pneumovesicoscopic Politano-Leadbetter group(group P) (20 cases). The operation time, postoperative urinary catheterization duration, hematuria duration, hospitalization time, and the improvement of hydronephrosis, ureteral dilatation, and renal function after surgery were compared between the 2 groups.The enumeration data were compared by the χ2 test or Fisher′ s exact probability method.The measurement data were compared by the t-test. Results:All the 48 children were successfully operated on by the same surgeon, without conversion to open surgery.Six cases in the group C had a megaureter and underwent ureter tailoring.Two cases in the group P had calyceal and ureteral calculi, which were all removed after operation.There was a statistically significant difference in the operation time between group C and group P[(136.5±35.4) min vs.(165.8±33.2) min, t=-3.154, P=0.002]. The patients were followed up for (10.3±2.6) months after operation.There were 8 cases and 6 cases of urinary tract infection in group C and group P within 2 months after the operation, respectively.They all improved after conservative anti-infection treatment, and the infection was well controlled after removal of the D-J tube.Besides, their intravenous pyelography 6 months after operation showed that the ureter was unobstructed.In group C, 6 months after the operation, the anterior and posterior diameters of the renal pelvis [(1.62±0.54) cm vs.(2.55±1.24) cm, t=-5.027, P=0.001] and the largest diameter of the ureter [(0.95±0.27) cm vs.(1.51±0.52) cm, t=-8.495, P<0.001] were significantly decreased, compared with those before operation.However, the renal cortex thickness was increased significantly [(1.47±0.25) cm vs.(0.86±0.46) cm, t=2.028, P=0.004], and the renal function (as indicated by the diuretic nephrogram) was notably improved [(46.27±2.16)% vs.(41.83±3.04)%, t=1.647, P=0.030]. In group P, 6 months after operation, the anterior and posterior diameters of the renal pelvis[(1.48±0.82) cm vs.(2.68±1.41) cm, t=-2.740, P=0.003] and the maximum diameter of the ureter [(1.05±0.46) cm vs.(1.36±0.27) cm, t=-1.635, P=0.040] were significantly smaller than those before operation.However, the renal cortical thickness was increased [(1.38±0.33) cm vs.(0.74±0.39) cm, t=9.073, P<0.001], and the renal function (as indicated by the diuretic nephrogram) was significantly improved [(45.18±3.35)% vs.(39.55±2.49)%, t=1.277, P=0.030]. Politano-Leadbetter surgery outperformed Cohen surgery in promoting the recovery of the anterior and posterior diameters of the renal pelvis [(1.48±0.82) cm vs.(1.62±0.54) cm, t=-1.748, P=0.030]. Conclusions:Pneumovesicoscopic Politano-Leadbetter operation can establish a longer submucosal tunnel without changing the ureteral shape and opening position, having good effects in treating VUJO combined with calyceal and ureteral calculi.Pneumovesicoscopic Politano-Leadbetter operation can also better improve postoperative recovery from hydronephrosis than Cohen operation.However, the pneumovesicoscopic Politano-Leadbetter operation is more difficult and requires longer time.The surgeon should choose a reasonable operation based on his/her own experience.

Myocardial infarction promotes cardiac remodeling and myocardial fibrosis, thus leading to cardiac dysfunction or heart failure. Peiminine has been regarded as a traditional anti-fibrotic Chinese medicine in pulmonary fibrosis. However, the role of peiminine in myocardial infarction-induced myocardial injury and fibrosis remained elusive. Firstly, rat model of myocardial infarction was established using ligation of the left coronary artery, which were then intraperitoneally injected with 2 or 5 mg/kg peiminine once a day for 4 weeks. Echocardiography and haemodynamic evaluation results showed that peiminine treatment reduced left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, and enhanced maximum rate of increase/decrease of left ventricle pressure (± dP/dt max) and left ventricular systolic pressure, which ameliorate the cardiac function. Secondly, myocardial infarction-induced myocardial injury and infarct size were also attenuated by peiminine. Moreover, peiminine inhibited myocardial infarction-induced increase of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α production, as well as the myocardial cell apoptosis, in the rats. Thirdly, peiminine also decreased the myocardial fibrosis related protein expression including collagen I and collagen III. Lastly, peiminine reduced the expression of p38 and phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 in rat model of myocardial infarction. In conclusion, peiminine has a cardioprotective effect against myocardial infarction-induced myocardial injury and fibrosis, which can be attributed to the inactivation of mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiological characteristics, diagnosis, treat-ment and prognosis of gallbladder cancer in China from 2010 to 2017.Methods:The single disease retrospective registration cohort study was conducted. Based on the concept of the real world study, the clinicopathological data, from multicenter retrospective clinical data database of gallbladder cancer of Chinese Research Group of Gallbladder Cancer (CRGGC), of 6 159 patients with gallbladder cancer who were admitted to 42 hospitals from January 2010 to December 2017 were collected. Observation indicators: (1) case resources; (2) age and sex distribution; (3) diagnosis; (4) surgical treatment and prognosis; (5) multimodality therapy and prognosis. The follow-up data of the 42 hospitals were collected and analyzed by the CRGGC. The main outcome indicator was the overall survival time from date of operation for surgical patients or date of diagnosis for non-surgical patients to the end of outcome event or the last follow-up. Measurement data with normal distribu-tion were represented as Mean±SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) or M(range), and com-parison between groups was conducted using the U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Univariate analysis was performed using the Logistic forced regression model, and variables with P<0.1 in the univariate analysis were included for multivariate analysis. Multivariate analysis was performed using the Logistic stepwise regression model. The life table method was used to calculate survival rates and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curves. Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Case resources: of the 42 hospitals, there were 35 class A of tertiary hospitals and 7 class B of tertiary hospitals, 16 hospitals with high admission of gallbladder cancer and 26 hospitals with low admission of gallbladder cancer, respectively. Geographical distribution of the 42 hospitals: there were 9 hospitals in central China, 5 hospitals in northeast China, 22 hospitals in eastern China and 6 hospitals in western China. Geographical distribution of the 6 159 patients: there were 2 154 cases(34.973%) from central China, 705 cases(11.447%) from northeast China, 1 969 cases(31.969%) from eastern China and 1 331 cases(21.611%) from western China. The total average number of cases undergoing diagnosis and treatment in hospitals of the 6 159 patients was 18.3±4.5 per year, in which the average number of cases undergoing diagnosis and treatment in hospitals of 4 974 patients(80.760%) from hospitals with high admission of gallbladder cancer was 38.8±8.9 per year and the average number of cases undergoing diagnosis and treatment in hospitals of 1 185 patients(19.240%) from hospitals with low admission of gallbladder cancer was 5.7±1.9 per year. (2) Age and sex distribution: the age of 6 159 patients diagnosed as gallbladder cancer was 64(56,71) years, in which the age of 2 247 male patients(36.483%) diagnosed as gallbladder cancer was 64(58,71)years and the age of 3 912 female patients(63.517%) diagnosed as gallbladder cancer was 63(55,71)years. The sex ratio of female to male was 1.74:1. Of 6 159 patients, 3 886 cases(63.095%) were diagnosed as gallbladder cancer at 56 to 75 years old. There was a significant difference on age at diagnosis between male and female patients ( Z=-3.99, P<0.001). (3) Diagnosis: of 6 159 patients, 2 503 cases(40.640%) were initially diagnosed as gallbladder cancer and 3 656 cases(59.360%) were initially diagnosed as non-gallbladder cancer. There were 2 110 patients(34.259%) not undergoing surgical treatment, of which 200 cases(9.479%) were initially diagnosed as gallbladder cancer and 1 910 cases(90.521%) were initially diagnosed as non-gallbladder cancer. There were 4 049 patients(65.741%) undergoing surgical treatment, of which 2 303 cases(56.878%) were initially diagnosed as gallbladder cancer and 1 746 cases(43.122%) were initial diagnosed as non-gallbladder cancer. Of the 1 746 patients who were initially diagnosed as non-gallbladder cancer, there were 774 cases(19.116%) diagnosed as gallbladder cancer during operation and 972 cases(24.006%) diagnosed as gallbladder cancer after operation. Of 6 159 patients, there were 2 521 cases(40.932%), 2 335 cases(37.912%) and 1 114 cases(18.087%) undergoing ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination before initial diagnosis, respec-tively, and there were 3 259 cases(52.914%), 3 172 cases(51.502%) and 4 016 cases(65.205%) undergoing serum carcinoembryonic antigen, CA19-9 or CA125 examination before initially diagnosis, respectively. One patient may underwent multiple examinations. Results of univariate analysis showed that geographical distribution of hospitals (eastern China or western China), age ≥72 years, gallbladder cancer annual admission of hospitals, whether undergoing ultrasound, CT, MRI, serum carcinoembryonic antigen, CA19-9 or CA125 examination before initially diagnosis were related factors influencing initial diagnosis of gallbladder cancer patients ( odds ratio=1.45, 1.98, 0.69, 0.68, 2.43, 0.41, 1.63, 0.41, 0.39, 0.42, 95% confidence interval as 1.21-1.74, 1.64-2.40, 0.59-0.80, 0.60-0.78, 2.19-2.70, 0.37-0.45, 1.43-1.86, 0.37-0.45, 0.35-0.43, 0.38-0.47, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that geographical distribution of hospitals (eastern China or western China), sex, age ≥72 years, gallbladder cancer annual admission of hospitals and cases undergoing ultrasound, CT, serum CA19-9 examination before initially diagnosis were indepen-dent influencing factors influencing initial diagnosis of gallbladder cancer patients ( odds ratio=1.36, 1.42, 0.89, 0.67, 1.85, 1.56, 1.57, 0.39, 95% confidence interval as 1.13-1.64, 1.16-1.73, 0.79-0.99, 0.57-0.78, 1.60-2.14, 1.38-1.77, 1.38-1.79, 0.35-0.43, P<0.05). (4) Surgical treatment and prognosis. Of the 4 049 patients undergoing surgical treatment, there were 2 447 cases(60.435%) with complete pathological staging data and follow-up data. Cases with pathological staging as stage 0, stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ, stage Ⅲa, stage Ⅲb, stage Ⅳa and stage Ⅳb were 85(3.474%), 201(8.214%), 71(2.902%), 890(36.371%), 382(15.611%), 33(1.348%) and 785(32.080%), respectively. The median follow-up time and median postoperative overall survival time of the 2 447 cases were 55.75 months (95% confidence interval as 52.78-58.35) and 23.46 months (95% confidence interval as 21.23-25.71), respectively. There was a significant difference in the overall survival between cases with pathological staging as stage 0, stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ, stage Ⅲa, stage Ⅲb, stage Ⅳa and stage Ⅳb ( χ2=512.47, P<0.001). Of the 4 049 patients undergoing surgical treatment, there were 2 988 cases(73.796%) with resectable tumor, 177 cases(4.371%) with unresectable tumor and 884 cases(21.833%) with tumor unassessable for resectabi-lity. Of the 2 988 cases with resectable tumor, there were 2 036 cases(68.139%) undergoing radical resection, 504 cases(16.867%) undergoing non-radical resection and 448 cases(14.994%) with operation unassessable for curative effect. Of the 2 447 cases with complete pathological staging data and follow-up data who underwent surgical treatment, there were 53 cases(2.166%) with unresectable tumor, 300 cases(12.260%) with resectable tumor and receiving non-radical resection, 1 441 cases(58.888%) with resectable tumor and receiving radical resection, 653 cases(26.686%) with resectable tumor and receiving operation unassessable for curative effect. There were 733 cases not undergoing surgical treatment with complete pathological staging data and follow-up data. There was a significant difference in the overall survival between cases not undergoing surgical treatment, cases undergoing surgical treatment for unresectable tumor, cases undergoing non-radical resection for resectable tumor and cases undergoing radical resection for resectable tumor ( χ2=121.04, P<0.001). (5) Multimodality therapy and prognosis: of 6 159 patients, there were 541 cases(8.784%) under-going postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and advanced chemotherapy, 76 cases(1.234%) under-going radiotherapy. There were 1 170 advanced gallbladder cancer (pathological staging ≥stage Ⅲa) patients undergoing radical resection, including 126 cases(10.769%) with post-operative adjuvant chemotherapy and 1 044 cases(89.231%) without postoperative adjuvant chemo-therapy. There was no significant difference in the overall survival between cases with post-operative adjuvant chemotherapy and cases without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( χ2=0.23, P=0.629). There were 658 patients with pathological staging as stage Ⅲa who underwent radical resection, including 66 cases(10.030%) with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and 592 cases(89.970%) without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. There was no significant difference in the overall survival between cases with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and cases without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( χ2=0.05, P=0.817). There were 512 patients with pathological staging ≥stage Ⅲb who underwent radical resection, including 60 cases(11.719%) with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and 452 cases(88.281%) without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. There was no significant difference in the overall survival between cases with postoperative adjuvant chemo-therapy and cases without post-operative adjuvant chemo-therapy ( χ2=1.50, P=0.220). Conclusions:There are more women than men with gallbladder cancer in China and more than half of patients are diagnosed at the age of 56 to 75 years. Cases undergoing ultrasound, CT, serum CA19-9 examination before initial diagnosis are independent influencing factors influencing initial diagnosis of gallbladder cancer patients. Preoperative resectability evaluation can improve the therapy strategy and patient prognosis. Adjuvant chemotherapy for gallbladder cancer is not standardized and in low proportion in China.

The following curriculum reforms in medical functional experiment have been performed in Guangzhou Medical University: taking comprehensive experiments as main contents, supported by self-designed experiments and innovative experiments after class, applying the blended teaching mode by combining virtual simulation experiments and animal experiments, setting up "simulative functional experiment" as an optional course based on intelligent simulated human system, and developing medical popular science education for teenagers. Questionnaire results show that, through these reforms, remarkable effects have been achieved in students' integrated practical ability, scientific accomplishment, clinical and innovative thinking ability.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of gallbladder cancer (GBC) patients in China.Methods:This retrospective multicenter cohort study enrolled 3 528 consecutive GBC patients diagnosed between January 2010 to December 2017 in 15 hospitals from 10 provinces. There were 1 345 (38.12%) males and 2 183 (61.88%) females.The age of diagnosis was (63.7±10.8) years old (range: 26 to 99 years old) .There were 213 patients (6.04%) in stage 0 to Ⅰ, whereas 1 059 (30.02%) in stage Ⅱ to Ⅲ, 1 874 (53.12%) in stage Ⅳ, and 382 (10.83%) unavailable. Surgery was performed on 2 255 patients (63.92%) . Three hundred and thirty-six patients received chemotherapy or radiotherapy (9.52%; of which 172 were palliative); 1 101 (31.21%) received only supportive treatment.The patient source, treatment and surgery, pathology, concomitant gallstone, and prognosis were analyzed.Results:Among the 3 528 GBC patients, 959 (27.18%) were from East China, 603 (17.09%) from East-North China, 1 533 (43.45%) from Central China, and 433(12.27%) from West China. Among the 1 578 resectable tumor, 665 (42.14%) underwent radical surgery, 913 (57.86%) underwent surgery that failed to follow the guidelines.Eight hundred and ninety-one (56.46%) patients were diagnosed before surgery, 254 (16.10%) during surgery, and 381 (24.14%) after surgery (time point of diagnosis couldn′t be determined in 52 patients) .Among the 1 578 patients with resectable tumor, 759 (48.10%) had concomitant gallstone.Among the 665 patients underwent radical surgery, 69 (10.4%) showed positive resection margin, 510 (76.7%) showed negative resection margin, and 86 (12.9%) unreported margin status.The 5-year overall survival rate (5yOS) for the 3 528-patient cohort was 23.0%.The 5yOS for patients with resectable tumor was 39.6%, for patients with stage ⅣB tumor without surgery was 5.4%, and for patients with stage ⅣB tumor underwent palliative surgery was 4.7%.Conclusions:More than half GBC patients in China are diagnosed in stage Ⅳ.Curative intent surgery is valuable in improving prognosis of resectable GBC.The treatment of GBC needs further standardization.Effective comprehensive treatment for GBC is in urgent need.

Objective:To study the effects of different doses of atorvastatin combined with valsartan on blood pressure variability (BPV) and circadian rhythm in patients with hypertension.Methods:Eighty patients with grade 2 and grade 3 hypertension from March 2018 to March 2019 in Hefei First People′s Hospital were divided into low-dose group (20 mg/d atorvastatin combined with valsartan) and high-dose group (40 mg/d atorvastatin combined with valsartan) according to the random number table method. The efficacy after 8 weeks of treatment was compared between the two groups. The BPV, circadian rhythm, vascular endothelial factors [nitric oxide (NO), endothelin (ET)], serum disease-related factors [human cartilage glycoprotein (YKL-40), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(sICAM-1), folate] and blood lipids [total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)] were recorded before treatment and 8 weeks after treatment, and the occurrence of adverse reactions during medicine was counted in the two group.Results:After 8 weeks of treatment, the total effective rate was 97.50%(39/40) in low-dose group and was 92.50%(37/40) in high-dose group, and there was no significant difference in the total effective rate between the two groups ( P>0.05). After 8 weeks of treatment, the 24 h SBPV, daytime SBPV, nighttime SBPV, 24 h DBPV, daytime DBPV and circadian rhythm in the two groups were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment, and the 24 h SBPV, daytime SBPV, daytime DBPV and circadian rhythm in high-dose group were significantly lower than those in low-dose group: (9.53 ± 1.73)% vs. (10.89 ± 1.98)%, (9.14 ± 1.90)% vs. (10.33 ± 2.07)%, (11.56 ± 2.78)% vs. (13.06 ± 3.16)%, (4.78 ± 1.56)% vs. (5.70 ± 1.81)%( P<0.05). After 8 weeks of treatment, the levels of NO, folate and HDL-C in the two groups were significantly increased compared with those before treatment, and the levels with in high-dose group were significantly higher than those in low-dose group: (67.16 ± 13.14) μmol/L vs.(60.53 ± 12.50) μmol/L, (14.94 ± 2.07) mmol/L vs.(13.83 ± 2.28) mmol/L, (1.42 ± 0.15) mmol/L vs. (1.31 ± 0.18)mmol/L ( P<0.05). The levels of ET, YKL-40, sICAM-1, TC, TG and LDL-C in the two groups were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment, and the levels in high-dose group were significantly lower than those in low-dose group: (33.63 ± 5.15) ng/L vs. (37.44 ± 5.13) ng/L, (32.68 ± 6.16) μg/L vs. (36.94 ± 6.03) μg/L, (203.78 ± 41.19) ng/L vs. (249.93 ± 50.81) ng/L, (6.78 ± 1.03) mmol/L vs. (7.38 ± 1.30) mmol/L, (2.88 ± 0.61) mmol/L vs. (3.39 ± 0.85) mmol/L, (3.14 ± 1.05) mmol/L vs. (3.85 ± 1.44) mmol/L ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Different doses of atorvastatin combined with valsartan are effective in the treatment of hypertension, but high dose of atorvastatin combined with valsartan has better effects on blood pressure variability and circadian rhythm, and can effectively improve vascular endothelial function.

Objective:To explore the effect of continuous improvement of emergency procedures in different departments on reperfusion and prognosis of patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction after chest pain center certification.Methods:From March 2018 to July 2019, the clinical data of 206 patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction and percutaneous coronary intervention diagnosed in the chest pain center of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University&Hefei First People′s Hospital were analyzed retrospectively.Ninety-eight patients admitted before certification were set as the control group, and 108 patients admitted after certification were set as the study group.The patients in the study group and the experimental group were compared in terms of the time from the onset to the initial medical contact, the time from the entrance to the implantation of balloon dilation, the time from the initial medical contact to the implantation of balloon dilation, the time of total ischemia and the incidence of major cardiovascular adverse events 30 days after percutaneous coronary intervention.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of major adverse cardiovascular events 30 days after operation.Results:Compared with the control group, the time from initial medical contact to implantation of balloon was (84.5 (73.0, 96.0) min), the time of total ischemia was (205.0(159.8, 307.0) min), the time from entrance to implantation of balloon was (72.5(58.3, 83.8) min) in the study group, which was (112.0(93.0, 132.5) min, 241.0(199.0, 329.0) min, 78.0(68.0, 96.5) min was significantly shorter than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). The time from the onset of disease to the initial medical contact in the study group was slightly shorter than that in the control group(124.5 (77.3, 201.0) min and 130.0 (76.3, 216.0) min), there was no significant difference ( P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the incidence of major cardiovascular adverse events in the study group was lower 30 days after operation (16.7%(18/108) and 28.6%(28/98)), the difference was statistically significant( P=0.040). According to the results of multivariate logistic regression analysis, Killip Ⅲ, Ⅳ ( OR 2.618, 95% CI1.244-5.509, P=0.011), the time from onset to initial medical contact>90 min ( OR 4.562, 95% CI 2.167-9.603, P<0.001), the time from entrance to implantation of balloon>60 min ( OR 2.227, 95% CI1.087-4.563, P=0.029) was an independent risk factor for major adverse cardiovascular events 30 days after operation. Conclusion:The continuous improvement of chest pain center process can promote the rational utilization of medical resources in the region, more effectively shorten the treatment time of myocardial infarction patients, and reduce the occurrence of major cardiovascular adverse events within 30 days after operation.
