ABSTRACT
Objective To study the correlation among property, efficacy and target of herbal Chinese materia medica; To analyze the molecular mechanism of cold and heat property of Chinese materia medica; To provide references for explaination of microcosmic mechanism and scientific connotation of property of Chinese materia medica. Methods Recordings about property and efficacy of single medicine in 2015 edition of Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China were sorted out. According to Pharmacological Research of New Ideas and New Targets and Pharmacology, 509 kinds of herbal Chinese materia medica were selected. Relevant articles about property, efficacy, pharmacologic action, and target in CNKI and Chinese Academic Journal Database (Wanfang Data) were searched by computers. The target information was screened and standardized, and the database was constructed by using MySQL5.7.13. The correlation between the property, efficacy and the target of the herbal Chinese materia medica was studied by using the frequency analysis and correlation rule algorithm of R software platform 3.3.1. Results 509 kinds of herbal Chinese materia medica were selected, including 227 kinds of cold-property medicine, 106 kinds of neutural-property medicine and 176 kinds of hot-property medicine. According to the result of data mining, efficacy of cold-roperty medicine was quenching thirst, clearing liver and treating stranguriaetc. The target was transforming growth factor β2 and liver microsome, etc. The efficacy of hot-property medicine was warming the middle, releasing cold and dissolving lumps. The target was bone morphology protein 2, rheumatoid factor, etc. The efficacy of neutural-property medicine was clearing lungs, diminishing distension and increasing energy. The target was β-amyloid and prostaglandin E2 receptors. Conclusion There is certain correlation in property, efficacy and target in Chinese materia medica.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of endovascular cooling on perioperative brain injury in patients undergoing intracranial aneurysm resection.Methods Sixteen Hunt-Hess Ⅱ -Ⅳ patients of both sexes aged 18-64 yr undergoing intracranial aneurysm resection were randomly divided into 2 groups(n = 8 each): mild hypothermia group(group MHT)and nonnothermia group(group NT).A CL-2295AE catheter was placed in the femoral vein after anesthesia induction to perform endovascular cooling.Bladder temperature was reduced to 34 ℃ and maintained for 24 h.The hemodynamic parameters were recorded during and after operation.Coagulantion function and electrolyte levels were determined at 24 h before operation and at 12 and 24 h after operation.The serum neuron-specific enolase(NSE)and S100B concentrations were determined at 1 d before operation and at 1,3and 7 d after operation by ELISA.Neurological function was assessed with GOS grade at 1 and 3 months after operation.Results There was no significant difference in hemodynamic parameters,electrolyte levels(Na+ ,K+ ,Ca2+)and coagulantion function(PT,APTT,Plt)between the two groups(P ＞ 0.05).The GOS grade was significantly higher,while serum NSE and S100B concentrations were significantly lower after operation in group MHT than in group NT(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Endovascular cooling(34℃,24 h)can reduce the brain injury safely and effectively during the perioperative period in patients undergoing intracranial aneurysm resection and improve the prognosis.
ABSTRACT
To study the clinical feature and surgical outcome of subretina and vitreous hemorrhage associated with senile macular degeneration (SMD). Vitrectomy was performed in 29 eyes of 29 patients with subretina and vitreous hemorrhage associated with SMD. Changes in the retina were observed, and the results of surgery were analyzed. The results showed that there was submacular hemorrhage in 16 patients, in whom 4 showed periomacular subretinal hematoma. There was peri macular subretinal hematoma only in 13 cases. The pathological changes in the macular region included discoid degeneration, submacular neovascularization, fixed foldings, exudation, scar and atrophic discoid cicatrization. All patients got visual acuity improvement after surgery. However those patients who had subretinal hemorrhage got less improvement of visual acuity than the others. It suggested that the SMD patients who was complicated by subretinal hemorrhage had a severer macular lesion. Pars plana vitrectomy could restore central vision of patients who suffered from subretinal and vitreous hemorrhage. But the outcome was related with the position of subretinal hemorrhage.
