ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the application value of the mechanical thrombectomy system in the treatment of acute limb ischemia.Methods:The clinical data of 50 patients with lower limb ischemia who were treated with the Rotarex mechanical thrombectomy system from Jun 2017 to Sep 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:In 4 cases of popliteal artery rupture occurred during the operation. The success rate of the operation was 92%. Catheter-directed thrombolysis was used in 7 cases, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty was used in 4 cases and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty combined with stent implantation was used in 39 cases. The ankle-brachial index of these 50 patients before and after operation was 0.18±0.24 and 0.64±0.28 respectively ( t=12.87, P<0.001). Treatment was successful in 43 cases. Follow-up ranged from 1 to 24 months, 5 cases were amputated, 2 cases had no improvement of toe ulcer gangrene, 9 cases had thrombus recurrence, and no complications such as bleeding were observed. The primary patency rates at 3, 6 and 12 months were 92%, 84% and 74%, respectively. Conclusion:The mechanical thrombectomy system is safe and effective in the treatment of acute lower limb ischemia with ideal short-term patency.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of low frequency pulsed electromagnetic field (LFPEMF) on peritumoral edema in patients with glioma, providing a theoretical basis for clinical treatment of peritumoral edema. Methods This study included 32 patients with recurrent cerebral glioma with peritumoral edema after the operation of glioma in department of glioma, Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Capital Medical University from March 2017 to December 2018.The period of LFPEMF treatment was 10-14 days.The clinical symptoms related to brain edema were recorded before and after treatment.The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (National Institute of health stroke scale, NIHSS), Karnofsky quality of life score (KPS), brain edema and tumor range in cranial MRI, T lymphocyte subgroup CD4+/CD8+, superoxide dismutase (SOD) were recorded.The SPSS21.0 statistical analysis software was used to carry out analysis by using self controlled study.P < 0.05 was statistically significant. Results After the treatment of LFPEMF, the results showed that LFPEMF was effective in 25 patients, invalid in 7 patients, and the total effective percentage was 78.13%.The area of brain edema was significantly improved after using LFPEMF(P < 0.05).There was no significant improvement in the area of brain tumor after using LFPEMF therapy (P>0.05).KPS and NIHSS scores improved significantly after using LFPEMF (P < 0.05). Conclusion In the patients with peritumoral edema of glioma, the application of LFPEMF in the patients′ Yongquan point and Lao Gong point can reduce peritumoral edema, and improve clinical symptoms.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE：To study the effects of gin seng root extract on autophagy ，proliferation and cytokine of splenic lymphocyte of mice ，and to study its mechanism. METHODS ：The splenic lymphocyte of mice were divided into blank control group，positive control group （concanavalin A ，5 μg/mL），different concentration of ginseng root extract groups （32，125，500 μg/mL，by lyophilized powder ）. After 48 h of culture with the corresponding medicine ，acridine orange staining method was used to detect autophagy of splenic lymphocyte ；CCK-8 assay was used to detect the cell proliferation ；ELISA assay was used to determine the levels of IL- 4，IL-6 and TNF-α in cell culture；Western blotting method was used to detect the expression of LC 3B and Beclin- 1，as well as the phosphorylation of AMPK ，AKT and mTOR. RESULTS ：Compared with blank control group ，32， 125，500 μg/mL ginseng root extract could increase the number of acidic autophagosomes in splenic lymphocytes of mice（P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）；125，500 μg/mL Ginseng root extract could significantly enhance the survival rate of splenic lymphocytes，the levels of IL- 4，IL-6 and TNF-α and the transformation of LC3BⅠ to LC 3BⅡ，significantly increased the protein expression of Beclin- 1， quinacrine cationic liposomes for treating non-small cell @163.com lung cancer[J]. J Drug Target ，2015，23（3）：232-243. the phosphorylation of AMPK protein ，and significantly reduced the phosphorylation level of AKT and mTOR proteins ，with statistical significance （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS ：Ginseng root extract can induce autophagy of mice splenic lymphocytes，activate the activity of splenic lymphocytes ，regulate the secretion of cytokine by activating AMPK and inhibiting the activation of AKT which can inhibit the activity of mTOR ，so as to exert immune enhancement effect.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the content determination of verbascoside in Naosaitong honeyed pill. METHODS:HPLC was performed on the column of Zorbax ODX with mobile phase of acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid(16∶84, V/V)at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min,the detection wavelength was 334 nm,column temperature was 30 ℃,and the injection volume was 10 μl. RESULTS:The linear range of verbascoside was 0.200-1.000 μg(r=0.999 8);RSDs of precision,stability and repro-ducibility tests were lower than 1%;recovery was 95.16%-99.78%(RSD=1.80,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple and accurate,and suitable for the content determination of verbascoside in Naosaitong honeyed pill.
