Objective:To compare the simplicity, safety, efficacy, prognoses and economic burden of CAS-R-2 frameless stereotactic device and Leksell frame stereotactic device in assisting surgery for patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage (ICH, hematoma volume: 20-40 mL).Methods:The clinical data of 120 patients with supratentorial ICH, admitted to our hospital from December 2012 to December 2019, were retrospectively analyzed; trepanation and drainage assisted by CAS-R-2 frameless stereotactic device was performed in 65 patients (frameless group), and trepanation and drainage assisted by Leksell frame stereotactic device was performed in 55 patients (frame group). The differences of surgery time, hematoma evacuation rate 7 d after surgery, incidences of recurrent hemorrhage and intracranial infection during hospitalization, length and expense of hospitalization, and modified Rankin scale (mRs) scores 6 months after surgery were compared between the two groups.Results:As compared with those in the frame group, patients from the frameless group had significantly shorter surgery time ([0.5±0.1] h vs. [2.2±0.5] h), significantly lower incidence of recurrent hemorrhage (0% vs. 9.1%) and significantly lower incidence of intracranial infection (1.5% vs. 9.1%) during hospitalization ( P<0.05). The hospitalization expense of patients from the frame group was significantly lower than that in the frameless group ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in hematoma evacuation rate 7 d after surgery, length of hospital stays, and mortality and mRs scores 6 months after treatment between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:For patients with supratentorial ICH, trepanation and drainage assisted by CAS-R-2 frameless stereotactic device has the same curative effect and prognoses as Leksell frame stereotactic one; the former has higher simplicity and clinical safety, and the latter has lower economic burden.

Object: To investigate the effects of Huaiqihuang Granule, a compound Chinese herbal medicine, on expressions of nephrin and podocin of slit diaphragm of glomerular podocytes in rats with adriamycin-induced nephrosis and to explore the mechanism in reducing the proteinuria. Methods: Twenty SD rats were randomly divided into five groups: control group, model group, glucocorticoid group, Huaiqihuang Granule group and Huaiqihuang Granule plus glucocorticoid group. The 24-hour urine was collected 7, 14, 21 and 28 days after adriamycin injection respectively to measure 24-hour urinary protein, and all rats were sacrificed after 28-day treatment. Pathological changes in renal tissues were observed under a light microscope and an electron microscope. Expressions of nephrin and podocin mRNAs in renal cortex were determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction, and protein levels of nephrin and podocin were detected by Western blotting. Results: (1) In the model group and the treatment groups, the level of urinary protein increased significantly from the 14th day. (2) Under the light microscope, inflammatory cells and slight fibroplasia were found in renal interstitium of the model group, but there were less inflammatory cells in renal interstitium in the intervention groups than in the model group. Under the electron microscope, 29 days after adriamycin injection, extensive fusion of foot processes was observed. (3) The expressions of nephrin and podocin were higher in treatment groups than in the model group. (4) Proteinuria level was negatively correlated with the expressions of nephrin mRNA and nephrin and podocin proteins. Conclusion: The above results indicate that Huaiqihuang Granule can maintain the integrity of the slid diaphragram in podocyte, alleviate the lesion of glomerular filtration membrane, and decrease the proteinuria by up-regulating the expressions of nephrin and podocin. Huaiqihuang Granule plus glucocorticoid maybe has better effects than glucocorticoid alone.
