RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the effect of hyperuricemia treatment on vascular endothelial function and blood pressure in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods:A total of 138 cases from the same center were enrolled in the study. 92 cases of acute cerebral infarction patients combined with hyperuricemia were selected. They were randomly divided into the experimental group (46 cases) and control group (46 cases). 46 cases of acute cerebral infarction patients with normal uric acid were selected in the same period. Patients in the experimental group received oral allopurinol for 3 months to treat hyperuricemia. Serum uric acid, blood lipid, and hs-CRP were tested before and after treatment in these populations. Blood pressure and body mass index (BMI) were also detected, and vascular endothelial function was evaluated using ultrasound non-invasive blood flow mediated vasodilation function (FMD). Comparison and statistical analysis were carried out in groups.Results:Uric acid [(479.7±49.0) μmol/L vs. (381.2±76.7) μmol/L]、hs-CRP[(8.1±6.7) mg/L vs. (5.1±4.6) mg/L]、systolic blood pressure [(124.7±26.3) mmHg vs. (97.4±13.5) mmHg] decreased significantly in the experimental group after 3 months of treatment with allopurinol ( P<0.05), and blood flow mediated vasodilation function [(7.6±3.5) vs. (11.2±3.9)]significantly increased ( P<0.05). The decrease of serum uric acid was positively correlated with the increase of FMD in the experimental group ( r=0.463, P<0.01). Multiple Regression analysis showed that serum uric acid was an independent predictor of FMD( β=-0.229, P=0.035). Conclusions:The treatment of hyperuricemia in patients with acute cerebral infarction can significantly improve the vascular endothelial function of patients, improve inflammation state and lower blood pressure. It is further confirmed that a higher uric acid level is related to worse endothelial function which may contribute to atherosclerosis.
RESUMO
Scarless healing is considered as the most ideal mode of wound repair. This ability generally exists in the early period of mammalian embryos, however it gradually turns to scar healing with the development of the embryos. This phenomenon is the result of the interaction of multiple biological functions, and the mechanism is still uncertain. This article deals with a systematical review of literature concerning the mechanism of scarless healing based on the recent experimental studies, hoping to provide evidence for the treatment of wounds to realize scarless healing in adult.
