RESUMO
Bladder tumors are one of the most common tumors of the urinary system, accounting for the highest morbidity and mortality rates of urological tumors in China, and the recurrence rate of postoperative tumors is also high. In recent years, bladder instillation of gemcitabine after bladder cancer surgery has been started in clinical practice. In this review, the dose, infusion method, and treatment time of commonly used bladder infusions of gemcitabine were summarized, the advantages of gemcitabine for postoperative bladder infusion in bladder cancer were reviewed, and the care related to the process of bladder infusion and the management of related complications were discussed.
RESUMO
@#The protective effect and mechanism of Oroxylin A, a naturally occurring compound in Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, was investigated in this study. Isoproterenol administration to rats triggered classic cardiac failure, as demonstrated by objective parameters of cardiac dysfunction. Intragastric administration of oroxylin A at the dose of 25, 50 and 100 mg/(kg·d)significantly improved deranged cardiac parameters in the isoproterenol-induced heart failure model in a dose-dependent manner. At the same time, oroxylin A markedly ameliorated cardiac histological changes and down-regulated serum levels of various neuroendocrine factors including norepinephrine, aldosterone, brain natriuretic peptide, endothelin 1, angiotensin II and so on. Mechanistically, augmenting autophagy of myocardial cells via the inhibition of AKT1-RPS6KB1 signaling contributed to the improvement of isoproterenol-induced rat heart failure by oroxylin A. Taken together, these results suggest that oroxylin A ameliorates heart failure through promoting autophagy in myocardial cells.
RESUMO
Aim of the present research work was to study the relationship between the degree of dementia and the serum levels of homocysteine[Hcy], high-sensitive C-reactive protein[hs-CRP], D-Dimer and vascular dementia[VaD] of patients, and to investigate the mechanism of Hcy, hs-CRP and D-Dimer in the vascular dementia. Subjects were divided into normal group and VaD group. CRP and D-Dimer protein of each sample were detected by nephelometry method, and the serum Hcy level was detected by Fluorescent labeling immunoassay method. Compared with the normal control group, Hcy, hs-CRP and D-Dimer in VaD group were significantly higher than that of control group, and the difference was statistically significant. Linear correlation analysis showed a negative association between Hs-CRP, Hcy and MMSE score. There was no correlation between the levels of D-Dimer and the MMSE score. Hcy, hs-CRP and D-Dimer are involved in the pathogenesis of vascular dementia [VAD], There is a significant correlation between the severity of vascular dementia and Hcy and Hs-CRP
RESUMO
To explore the effect of Shexiang baoxin pills on clopidogrel resistance in patients with acute coronary syndrome [ACS]. 131 cases with ACS combining with clopidogrel resistance admitted to our hospital during March 2013 to November 2015 were recruited in this study and were divided into observation group [66 cases] and control group [65 cases] according to the random number table method. And the patients in observation group were given clopidogrel with Shexiang baoxin pills therapy while the control group clopidogrel therapy to observe the platelet aggregation rate, heart rate variability [HRV], and serum level of matrix metalloproteinase-2 [MMP-2]. After treatment, the platelet aggregation rate in observation group was significantly less than the group before treatment and that of control group [P<0.05]; And before treatment, the serum level of MMP-2 and HRV of the two groups were not statistically significant [P>0.05]. But after treatment, the serum level of MMP-2 and HRV of the observation group were significantly lower and better respectively than the observation group before treatment and control group [P<0.05]. Shexiang baoxin pill plays an active role in reducing clopidogrel resistance in patients with ACS, lowering platelet aggregation rate and serum level of MMP-2, improving HRV in the body

BACKGROUND:Restenosis after angioplasty severely limited the application and long-period therapeutic effects of percutaneous coronary intervention. Changes in smooth muscle cel phenotype and their proliferation are important mechanisms of restenosis after angioplasty. OBJECTIVE:To use bal oon in vivo transduction of osteopontin short hairpin RNA (OPN-shRNA), to inhibit osteopontin expression at the injured blood vessels of a rabbit model of experimental atherosclerosis, and to prevent restenosis after angioplasty. METHODS:A total of 20 rabbit models of atherosclerosis were established and randomly equal y assigned to empty plasmid group and OPN-shRNA plasmid group. The plasmid recombinant OPN-shRNA and empty plasmid were transferred to the ventral aorta by bal oon. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After bal oon dilatation, specific green fluorescence was detected in the layer of vascular smooth muscle in the two groups. Moreover, with prolonged time of transfection, fluorescence intensity gradual y decreased. Compared with the empty plasmid group, the expanded artery lumen area obviously increased in the OPN-shRNA plasmid group, and plaque burden evidently reduced. Results indicated that bal oon catheter used in regional blood vessels in rabbit models of atherosclerosis could successful y transduce OPN-shRNA plasmid. The restenosis of the expanded blood vessels lessened, and thrombus burden relieved. It is of great importance to prevent the occurrence of restenosis after angioplasty in rabbit models.
RESUMO
Objective To summarize radiofrequency cather ablation (RFCA)of tachycardias with right sid-ed accessory atrioventricular pathway in 7 patients with persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC). Methods RF-CA for right sided accessory atrioventricular pathway in 7 patients with PLSVC was carried out . Coronary sinus ac-cess was performed through the left subclavian and the left femoral vein respectively. Swartz sheath was used during ablation if neccesary. Results There was no siginificant differences in fluoroscopy time between the left subclavian approach and the left femoral vein approach[(2.8 ± 0.6)min vs (3.2 ± 0.3)min, P>0.05)]. No recurrence of ac-cessory pathway conduction was found during a mean follow-up of (23 ± 11) months. The mean discharging time and fluoroscopy time were (312 ± 67)s and (17 ± 5)min respectively. Conclusions Although RFCA of right sided accessory atrioventricular pathway in patients with PLSVC shows specialities in cather manipulation , mapping and ablation, high successful results can be achieved by experienced physician.
RESUMO
Objective To observe the effects of salvianolate injection on blood levels of high sensitively C-reactive protein (hs-CRP),pregnancy associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction.Methods The elderly patients with AMI (AMI group,n=160) and healthy controls (control group.n=30) were enrolled in this study and their blood concentrations of PAPP A,hs CRP and BNP were detected before and two weeks after treatment.The elderly patients in AMI group were randomized into conventional treatment group (n =80) and salvianolate group (n =80).Results The levels of PAPP-A,hs-CRP and BNP were significantly higher in AMI patients [(12.88±2.56) mg/L,(20.13 ±5.35) mU/L,(412.0±69.5) ng/L,respectively] than in healthy subjects[(1.20±0.88) mg/L,(1.90±0.46) mU/L,(89.0±5.6) ng/L,respectively] (t=24.670,3.780,11.939,respectively,P ＜0.01).But,before treatment there were no significant differences in the levels of PAPP-A,hs-CRP and BNP between the AMI group and control group (t=0.864,0.712,0.985,all P＞0.05).After two weeks of treatment,as compared with control group,AMI group showed that the serum concentrations of PAPP-A,hs-CRP and BNP were decreased significantly (P＜0.05).The levels of PAPP A,hs-CRP and BNP were (3.83±1.20) mg/L,(1.33±0.38) mU/L,(105.0±31.2) ng/L in salvianolate group and (5.71± 1.93) mg/L,(1.81±0.72) mU/L,(150.0±36.7) ng/L in conventional treatment group respectively,and the decrements in levels of PAPP-A,hs CRP and BNP were greater in the former than in the latter(t=7.399,5.273,8.356,respectively,all P＜0.05).Conclusions The dynamic serum concentrations of PAPP-A,hs CRP and BNP can be used as clinical indexes for the prognosis of acute myocardial infarction.Salvianolate injection can significantly decrease the serum levels of PAPP A,hs CRP and BNP.The salvianolate injection may have anti inflammatory effect and improve cardiac function in elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction,but the mechanism is still to be further discussed.

The incidence of adverse cardiovascular events in two groups were 17.81％ and 11.79％ ( P ＞ 0.05 ). ③ Multivarite logistic regression revealed that the predictors of adverse cardiovascular events were age [ OR =2.628,95％ confidence interval (CI) 1.395 ～ 4.954,P =0.003 ],New York Heart Association (NYHA) ≥ 3 grade ( OR =2.310,95％ CI 1.095 ～4.870,P =0.028) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ( OR =4.328,95％ CI 1.955 ～9.580,P ＜ 0.001 ).However,MS was not related with prognosis ( OR =1.170,95％ CI 0.583 ～ 2.345,P =0.659 ).④The cumulative survival rates of no adverse cardiovascular events in the two groups were no significant difference ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusions MS is a risk factor with coronary heart disease.Howerer,it has no relationship with adverse cardiovascular events in patients with ACS after PCI.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the myocardial protection of adiponectin (ADP) /adiponectin receptor 1 (ADPR1) related-signal pathway in rats with limb ischemic preconditioning.Methods Thirty SD male rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group,myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI) group,limb ischemic preconditioning (LIPC) group,LY294002 (the PI3-specific inhibitor) pretreatment group and LY294002+LIPC group (n=10 each).The mRNA level of myocardial ADP and ADPR1,the protein expressions of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3k)phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt) were determined by RT-PCR and Western blot,respectively. Results As compared with sham-operation group,the mRNA levels of ADP and ADPR1 in MIRI group were significantly decreased (0.53 ± 0.07 vs.0.74 ± 0.08 and 0.52 ± 0.02 vs.0.72 ± 0.04,P＜0.05).Compared with MIRI group,the mRNA levels of ADP (0.72±0.21) and ADPRI (0.80±0.023) in LIPC group were increased,ADP(0.49±0.07) and ADPR1 (0.52± 0.02) mRNA were decreased in LY294002 group (both P＜0.05),but there were no difference in ADP(0.70±0.16) and ADPR1(0.78±0.05) mRNA between LY294002+LIPC group and MIRI group.The protein levels of Pl3k and p-Akt were lower in MIRI group than in sham-operation group (3.85±0.23 vs.2.83±0.22and 3.77±0.32 vs.2.66±0.29,P＜0.05).In contrast to MIRI group,the yield of PI3k (2.65±0.32)and p-Akt(2.26±0.27) protein (P＜0.05) were increased in LIPC group,but there were unproductive protein of PI3k (3.75 ± 0.65) and p-Akt (4.01 ± 0.71) in LY294002 group with no differences versus the levels of PI3k (3.23 ± 0.48) and p-Akt (3.17 ± 0.54) in LY294002 + LIPC group. Conclusions Limb ischemic preconditioning may protect myocardium by promoting serum adiponectin levels,improving myocardial mRNA expressions of ADP and ADPR1,activating the ADP/PI3k/Akt signaling pathway in reperfusion injury.
RESUMO
ObjectiveTo investigate the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ)/Caspase-8/Caspase-3 signaling pathway in the development of hyperlipidemia in rats.Methods 60 healthy male SD rats 〔4-week old,weight (110 ± 10) g〕 were randomly divided into control group,high-fat diet group,folic acid group,vitamin B12 group,folic acid and vitamin B12 group.After one week's feeding for adaptability,the groups of foloc acid,vitamine B12 and foloc acid + vitamineB12 were dealt with intraperitoneal injection of folic acid (0.5 mg/d),vitamin B12 (0.05mg/d),and folic acid (0.5 mg/d) plus vitamin B12 (0.05 mg/d),respectively,and fed with high fat diet simultaneously.Control group was dealt with intraperitoneal injection of normal saline (0.5 ml/d)and fed with normal diet.High-fat diet group was only fed with high fat diet.Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to measure the mRNA level of PPARy,Caspase-8 and Caspase-3 in aorta abdominalis dissected at 17 weekends.Results Folic acid alone or jointed with vitamin B12 could effectively increase the level of PPARγ,while decrease the mRNA levels of Caspase8 and Caspase-3 as compared with high-fat diet group (P＜0.05),and folic acid plus vitamin B12 was more effective than folic acid alone (P＜0.05).Conclusions Folic acid alone or joined with vitamin B12 can improve the mRNA levels of PPARγ,Caspase-8 and Caspase-3 in vascular wall to protect endothelial injury from hyperlipidemia.

Objective To investigate the effect of sodium ozagrel injection on hemorheology, endothelin (ET) and nitrogen monoxidum (NO) of patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSEMI). Methods A total of 81 NSEMI patients were divided randomly into two groups: control group and experimental group. Isosorbide mononitrate, low molecular heparin and simvastatin were administered in the control group while sodium ozagrel was added to the experimental group apart from the above-mentioned drugs. The clinical effect of sodium ozagrel was observed. The changes in the indexes of hemorheology, ET and NO were analyzed. Results The clinical effect was significantly better in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05). The level of ET was obviously lower after treatment than that in the experimental group and the control group before treatment (P<0.05). The level of NO was obviously higher after treatment than that in the experimental group and the control group before treatment (P<0.05). The changes of ET and NO in the experimental group post-treatment were more significant than those in the control group after-treatment (P<0.05). The level of hemorheology index after treatment was lower than that before treatment in the experimental group (P<0.05). High-shear rate of whole blood viscosity, platelet adherence rate, and fibrin as hemorheology indexes were lower after-treatment than those pretherapy in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Sodium ozagrel injection could affect hemorheology,ET and NO of patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction. Thefore, the therapeutic efficacy can be better if sodium ozagrel is added to the conventional therapy.
RESUMO
Objective To explore clinical effect of integrative medical therapy on infantile bronchiolitis. Methods 96 infants with bronchiolitis were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group. The treatment group was treated with integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine, and the control group was treated with western medicine exclusively. Results The disappearance time for symptoms and signs in the treatment group was shorter than that of the control group. The hospitalized time (or time for observation of outpatient infusion) of the treatment group was also shorter than that of the control group (P＜0.05). The cure rate was 78.0% and the total effective rate was 96.0%% in the treatment group. However, the cure rate was 52.2% and the total effective rate was 69.6% in the control group, which had a significant difference in the two groups (P＜0.05). Conclusion Integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine can obviously shorten course of disease and hospitalized time, and also improve the curative effect of infantile bronchiolitis.
RESUMO
Objective To study the effect of simvastatin on improve ventricular remodeling in rats after myocardial infarction(MI). Methods The MI models of rat were constructed,and divided into three groups:(1)MI group(MI-C),only ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery(LAD);(2)Simvastatin group(MI-S),ligation of LAD and gavage with simvastatin 40 mg?kg~(-1)?d~(-1);(3)Sham group(sham),no ligation of LAD.Cardiac architecture and function were determined by the echocardiography.The TNF-? mRNA expression in infarction and non-infarction regions was measured by RT-PCR. TNF-? protein was determined by Western blot and immunohistochemical staining.Results The echocardiography showed that the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDd,(7.5?0.4)mm versus(4.5?0.3)mm) significantly increased in MI-C group,compared with sham group.The fractional shortening(FS,(20.5?2.5)% versus(51.6?3.1)%) and ejection fraction(EF,(41.4?4.3)%versus(85.2?3.7)%)markedly decreased in MI-C group,while compared with sham group. Simvastatin obviously reduced left ventricle(LV) expansion and improved LV function(P
