RESUMO
Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy(HDP)is a group of diseases including high blood pressure during pregnancy. Strengthening clinical monitoring, risk factors assessment and early intervention would promote outcomes of women and their children. Blood pressure and proteinuria are key monitoring during pregnancy. Antihypertensive drugs recommended for pregnancy include methyldopa, labellol, or nifedipine. Early screening and intervention of preeclampsia is one of the keys to the prevention of cardiovascular risk during pregnancy. In addition to medication, weight control, screening and treatment of obstructive sleep apnea(OSA), lifestyle intervention and so on can not be ignored.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of argatroban versus aspirin plus clopidogrel in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. Methods Seventy five patients with acute ischemic stroke within 48h of symptom onset were randomly divided into two groups: argatroban group (argatroban was used for 7 days according to the instructions, followed by aspirin 100mg per day plus clopidogrel 75mg per day until discharge, n=35), and combination antiplatelet group (300mg of clopidogrel for the first day, then 75mg daily plus aspirin 100mg daily until discharge, n=40). Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project (OCSP) classification was assessed in patients before treatment. National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) was used for rating neurological deficit score of patients, and Barthel index for rating activities of daily life (ADL), and modified Rankin scale for handicap score. NIHSS was assessed one week after enrollment, while ADL and mRS assessment were recorded 3 months after onset. Brain imaging, liver and kidney function, blood routine tests and blood coagulation capacity of the patients were measured before and one week after enrollment to observe changes in hemorrhage and biochemical indicators. Drugs-related adverse events were recorded during treatment. All patients received TOAST analysis before leaving hospital. Results 1. In both groups, NIHSS was reduced after oneweek treatment, compared with that before treatment, while ADL was improved at three-month follow-up, compared with those at admission. The results showed statistically significant difference (P0.05) was found between two groups. The transient ischemic attacks (TIA) disappeared in both groups. Brain imaging showed that in three patients the lesion advanced to infarction in argatroban group (total 6 patients), and two patients in the combined antiplatelet group (total 5 patients) suffered from the same change. 2. The brain imaging and measuring of relevant laboratory indicators of patients in both groups were performed again after one-week treatment. There was no bleeding events (including intracranial hemorrhage and hemorrhage in other organs) or impairment of hepatorenal function (P>0.05). 3. In both groups, OCSP classifications of patients were mainly divided into the partial anterior circulation infarction (PACI), lacunar infarction (LACI) and posterior circulation infarction (POCI), while TOAST etiological analyses of patients were mainly large-artery atherosclerosis (LAA) and small artery occlusion (SAO). In both groups, the neurological defects were improved after treatment, and there was no significant bleeding events during treatment period. There was no significant difference of NIHSS one week after enrollment between PACI subgroups (P>0.05), while better neurological improvement was showed in the POCI subgroup of argatroban group. Conclusions Argatroban anticoagulant and combination antiplatelet therapy with aspirin plus clopidogrel can effectively improve neurological deficit of patients, reduce recurrence rate and deterioration of the illness in acute phase, and improve patients' daily activities (ADL). Argatroban therapy showed better neurological function improvement in the posterior circulation infarction patients. As a new anticoagulant drug, argatroban is safe in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. For the patients who have infarction involving the posterior circulation, argatroban, as a more aggressive treatment, should be recommended. (The trial registered number: ChiCTR TRC-13003384)
RESUMO
Preoperative fasting is prescribed for a certain period before operations or procedures in which patients are not allowed oral intake to prevent aspiration of gastric content. Fasting recommendations prohibit the consumption of a heavy meal for 8 hours, a light meal or milk for 6 hours, and breast milk for 4 hours, and permit the consumption of clear liquid until 2 hours before an operation. However, sometimes, in an emergency situation such as increased intra-cranial or intraabdominal pressure and other trauma, the recommended fasting time might not be an absolute policy for preventing the aspiration of gastric content because the disease or trauma itself causes changes on the esophageal sphincter pressure, volume of the gastric content, and pH of the gastric fluid. Preparation of a safe anesthetic technique and appropriate preoperative medications can be helpful in preventing aspiration pneumonitis in an emergency situation.

Objective To assess the effects of Urinary Kallid inogenase combined with Asprin for cerebral infarction patients. Methods All the patiens received Asprin treatment,while patients in study group received Urinary Kallidino-genase through injection additionally,the control growp received Asprin Chinese Stroke Scale (CSS)、Modified Barthel Index (MBI) and Fugal-Meyer Assessment (FMA) were used to evaluate clinical conditions. Results Scores of CSS, MBI and FMA showed clinical improvement after 14 or 28 days in each subgroups. In the study group, MBI scores were significantly higher than that in control group after 14 days,while CSS,MBI and FMA scores in study group were statistically improved than that of control group 28 days later. Urinary Kallid inogenase combined with asprin showed better clinical outcomes in the patients with cerebral infarction. Conclusion Urinary Kallidinogenase combined with Asprin can increase the clinical effectiveness,reduce the rate of disability and improve the quality of life for cerebral infarction patiens.
RESUMO
The administration status of enteric coated aspirin in 348 diabetic patients aged over 40 from Xujiahui Subdistrict of Shanghai was surveyed. One hundred and two out 348 patients ( 29. 3% ) used aspirin regularly, among them only 36 cases used the correct dosage (75 - 162 mg/d), accounting for 10. 3% (36/348) of all patients surveyed. The results indicate that aspirin was not used properly in diabetic patients to prevent the heart and cerebrovascular diseases,and it is necessary for medical providers to promote health education for diabetic patients.
