ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of sacubitril and valsartan combined with bisoprolol in the treatment of chronic heart failure and its effect on N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP) level.Methods:The clinical data of 89 patients with chronic heart failure who received treatment in Jinan 2 nd People's Hospital from January 2020 to April 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into Group A ( n = 48) and Group B ( n = 41) according to different treatment methods. Group A was treated with sacubitril and valsartan combined with bisoprolol. Group B was treated with sacubitril and valsartan combined with metoprolol. All patients were treated for 3 months. Clinical efficacy as well as heart function and NT-pro BNP level pre- and post-treatment were compared between the two groups. The incidence of adverse reactions was calculated in each group. Results:Total response rate in group A was significantly higher than that in group B [95.83% (46/48) vs. 82.93% (34/41), χ2 = 4.05, P < 0.05]. After treatment, the left ventricular ejection fraction in both groups increased significantly and the left ventricular ejection fraction in group A was significantly higher than that in group B ( t = 2.19, P < 0.05). After treatment, NT-pro BNP level in group A was (416.51 ± 30.56) ng/L, which was significantly lower than (450.20 ± 35.79) ng/L in group B ( t = 4.79, P < 0.001). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:The efficacy of sacubitril and valsartan combined with bisoprolol in the treatment of chronic heart failure is superior to that of sacubitril and valsartan combined with metoprolol. The former can greatly decrease NT-pro BNP level. Corresponding drugs can be selected for the treatment of chronic heart failure according to the actual needs of patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare the effects of esketamine and opioids on postoperative cellular immune function in the patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecological surgery.Methods:Fifty patients, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠor Ⅱ, aged 20-65 yr, with height 150-180 cm, weighing 50-80 kg, who underwent laparoscopic non-oncologic gynecological surgery with general anesthesia in the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from September 2020 to February 2021, were divided into 2 groups using a random number table method: esketamine group (group K) and opioid analgesic group (group O), with 25 patients in each group.Anesthesia was induced as follows: esmketamine 0.25-0.50 mg/kg was intravenously injected in group K, sufentanil 0.2-0.4 μg/kg was intravenously injected in group O, and propofol 2 mg/kg and rocuronium 0.6-0.9 mg/kg were intravenously injected in two groups.Anesthesia was maintained as follows: esketamine was intravenously infused at 0.5 mg·kg -1·h -1 in group K, remifentanil was intravenously infused at 10-20 μg·kg -1·h -1 in group O, and propofol 4-10 mg·kg -1·h -1 was intravenously infused, and rocuronium 0.2-0.3 mg/kg was intermittently injected in two groups.Blood samples from elbow veins were collected before anesthesia induction (T 1) and immediately after extubation (T 2) for determination of T lymphocyte subsets (CD3 + , CD4 + , CD8 + , CD4 + CD25 + CD127 low) and NK cells and B lymphocyte (by flow cytometry) and serum interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-10 concentrations (by multiplexed fluorescent microsphere immunoassay). Routine blood tests were performed on preoperative day 1 and postoperative day 3, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio were calculated. Results:Compared with group O, the percentages of CD3 + and CD4 + cells, ratio of CD4 + /CD8 + and percentage of NK cells were significantly increased, serum IL-6 concentrations were decreased, and serum IL-10 concentrations were increased after extubation, white blood cell, monocyte and neutrophil counts were increased, and lymphocyte count was decreased on postoperative day 3 ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio in group K ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with opioid analgesics, esketamine has less inhibition of postoperative cellular immune function in the patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecological surgery.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of amlodipine atorvastatin calcium tablets in the treatment of patients with hypertension and coronary heart disease complicated with carotid atherosclerosis .Methods From August 2013 to August 2017,280 patients with hypertension and coronary heart disease complicated with carotid atherosclerosis in the Second People＇s Hospital of Ji＇nan were selected,and they were divided into two groups by envelope randomization packet mode,with 140 cases in each group.The control group was treated with amlodipine benzenesulfonate.The observation group was treated with amlodipine atorvastatin calcium tablets .The incidence of adverse reactions,diastolic blood pressure (DBP) level,systolic blood pressure (SBP) level,total effective rate,hs-CRP,TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C,IMT,PV were compared between the two groups.Results There were no statistically significant differences in PV,IMT,SBP and DBP between the two groups (t ＝1.150,0.861,0.195,0.637,all P＞0.05).The incidence rate of adverse reactions (2.86%),DBP level[(78.95 ±3.11)mmHg],SBP level[(121.63 ±5.42)mmHg],total effective rate (96.43%),hs-CRP levels[(4.15 ±1.65)mg/L],TC level [(3.28 ±1.98)mmol/L],TG level[(1.22 ±0.34)mmol/L],HDL-C level[(1.98 ±0.75)mmol/L],LDL-C level[(1.33 ±0.54)mmol/L],IMT[(1.12 ±0.05)mm],PV[(0.11 ±0.03)cm3]in the observation group were better than those in the control group (χ2＝22.630,t＝15.839,37.209,χ2＝25.053,t＝20.056,7.381,8.659,15.110,21.951,15.665,12.951,all P＜0.05).Conclusion The effect of amlodipine atorvastatin calcium tablets in the treatment of patients with hypertension and coronary heart disease complicated with carotid atherosclerosis is remarkable.
ABSTRACT
Clinical probation is an important part of clinical teachings for foreign students in Medical Colleges.We chose some physicians and candidate doctors as teachers,who had both high professional level and English ability,according to the characteristics of the students.Before class,teachers had to complete the teaching plan,prepare for the language and lectures,and choose a good case.During the procedure,teachers began the training from the trivial matter,and used PBL teaching methods,put emphasis on care history collecting and physical examination,paid a great attention to the culture of clinical thinkings,etc.At last,some suggestions were put forward to solve the existing problems.
