摘要
ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of Pingwei Capsules （平胃胶囊） for chronic atrophic gastritis from rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma / mitogen-activated protein kinase /extracellular-signal-regulated kinase （Raf/MEK/ERK） pathway that influences the activation of fibrosarcoma protein/mitogen. MethodsFifteen SD rats were randomly divided into 5 rats in the blank group and 10 rats in Pingwei Capsules group. The rats in the blank group were given 1 ml/100 g of saline by gavage， and the rats in Pingwei Capsules group were given 0.63 g/（kg·d） of Pingwei Capsule suspension by gavage， and serum was collected for 3 consecutive days. N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine （MNNG） was used to induce human gastric mucosal epithelial cells GES-1 to establish a precancerous lesion cell model. The successful cells were divided into control group （10% fetal bovine serum）， blank serum group （10% fetal bovine serum plus 10% blank serum）， and medication-containing serum group （serum with medication of Pingwei Capsule）， and the volume fraction and time of intervention of Pingwei Capsule-containing serum were screened by CCK-8 assay. Human gastric mucosal epithelial cells GES-1 were divided into normal group， model group， blank serum group， medication-containing serum group， U0126 group， and combined group， with 6 replicate wells in each group. After successful modelling of the cells in all groups except the blank group， an equal volume of fetal bovine serum was added to the normal and model groups， an equal volume of blank serum was added to the blank serum group， a screening volume fraction of Pingwei Capsule-containing serum was added to Pingwei Capsule group， a 10 μmol/L mitogen-activated extracellular signal regulated kinase 1 （MEK1） inhibitor U0126 was administered in the U0126 group， an equal dose of Pingwei Capsule-containing serum plus 10 μmol/L of U0126 was administered to the combined group. After the selected incubation time， the level of interleukin 6 （IL-6） was detected in the cells by ELISA， the expression of IL-6 and MEK1 was detected by immunofluorescence， and the expression of IL-6， Raf， MEK1， and ERK mRNA was detected by RT-qPCR， and the expression of IL-6， Raf， MEK1， and ERK mRNA in the cells was detected by Western blot. ResultsThe 5.35% volume fraction， 48 h intervention of Pingwei Capsule-containing serum was selected for subsequent experiments. Compared with the normal group， the IL-6 content in cell supernatants and the expression of IL-6， Raf， MEK1， ERK mRNA and ERK1/2 proteins in cells increased in the model group and blank serum group （P＜0.01）. Compared with the model group， all of the above indexes were improved in medication-containing serum group， U0126 group， and combined group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with medication-containing serum group， the expression of IL-6， MEK1 expression， the expression of IL-6， Raf， MEK1 and ERK mRNA， and the expression of IL-6， Raf， MEK1 and ERK1/2 proteins reduced in the cells of combined group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the U0126 group， IL-6 expression reduced and IL-6， MEK1 and ERK1/2 protein expression reduced in cells of combined group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. ConclusionThe Pingwei Capsule-containing serum may play a role in the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis by improving the inflammation-cancer transformation of GES-1 cells through inhibiting the Raf/MEK/ERK pathway.

Objective:To understand main problems existing in the construction of advanced stroke centers in China and put forward solutions, for reference in promoting the standardization construction of advanced stroke centers and improving the efficiency of acute stroke treatment.Methods:The data were derived from relevant data of on-site export guidance in the construction of advanced stroke centers at 175 tertiary hospitals from 2020 to 2021, and the scores of on-site evaluation indicators for the establishment of stroke centers and their formal approval were compared and analyzed. Based on on-site investigation and expert consultation, the common problems existing in the construction of advanced stroke centers were summarized. All data were analyzed by descriptive analysis, the scores of on-site evaluation indicators were expressed by ± s, and paired t test was used for comparison between groups. Results:Compared with the total score(693.04±72.06) of on-site evaluation at the stage of project launch, the total score(747.94±78.10) of on-site evaluation for formal approval of stroke centers of 70 hospitals was higher, and the difference was significant( P<0.01). There were seven common problems in the construction of stroke centers in 175 hospitals, including insufficient attention paid by hospitals, lack of effective performance incentive policies, imperfect treatment procedures and medical norms, and so on. Conclusions:Experts on-site guidance plays an important role in the construction of stroke centers in China. At present, there were still problems to tackle in the construction of stroke centers in hospitals. In order to promote the standardized construction of stroke centers in China and improve the efficiency of stroke treatment, the authors suggest fuorther strengthening the importance attached by hospital leadership and the coordination and organization of functional departments, establishing stroke center models conforming to the actual situation of the hospital, seting up the post of brain and heart health manager, and improving the regional prevention and treatment level of acute stroke.
摘要
A nationwide survey was conducted from October 2018 to September 2019 to assess the prevalence of hyperhomocysteinemia (Hhcy) and its influencing factors in China. A standardized questionnaire was used to collect information. Hhcy was defined as the level of serum homocysteine (HCY) ⩾ 15.0µmol/L. The H-type hypertension (HHYP) was defined as hypertension with an elevated serum HCY 15.0µmol/L). Finally, 110 551 residents ⩾ 40 years of age from 31 provinces in the mainland of China were included. Overall, the median serum HCY level was 10.9µmol/L (interquartile range 7.9-15.1). A total of 28 633 participants (25.9%) were defined as Hhcy. The Hhcy prevalence ranged from 7.9% in Shanghai to 56.8% in Tianjin. The data showed that serum HCY levels were associated with age, male gender, cigarette smoking, hypertension, diabetes, ethnicity, endurance in exercise (inverse), and fruit and vegetable intake (inverse). In addition, 15 486 participants were defined as HHYP, and the rate was 14.0%. HHYP was an independent predictor of stroke with an adjusted odds ratio of 1.752 (95% CI 1.338-2.105). The geographical distribution pattern of the Hhcy epidemic reflects dynamic differences, and national strategies should be carried out to further improve the care of patients with Hhcy across China.

To enhance primary and secondary stroke prevention, the Stroke Prevention and Control Project committee of the National Health Commission launched since October 2017 a nationwide training program for cerebrocardiac health advisors in the country. The authors introduced the standardized training system for such advisors, and the health management plan for stroke patients, in an effort to provide full-course health management scheme for stroke patients, and explore a stroke management model led by cerebrocardiac health advisors. Such efforts were designed to promote effective implementation of integrated prevention and control strategies for stroke, and provide a reference for the clinical practice of cerebrocardiac health advisors in a comprehensive and in-depth manner.
摘要
Stroke is one of the main causes of mortality, long-term physical and cognitive impairment in China. In order to meet the challenge, Stroke Prevention and Treatment Project of the National Health Commission(SPTPC) was established in April 2011 in the Ministry of Health. In 2016, SPTPC issued a work plan of stroke center hospital. In order to shorten the time of pre-hospital, the SPTPC established the stroke center network, stroke map and stroke green channel to create "the three 1-hour gold rescue circle" to form a hierarchical stroke diagnosis and treatment system. The current construction of the Chinese Stroke Center is divided into two levels and four layers. As of December 31, 2018, SPTPC has certified a total of 310 advanced stroke centers, including 30 demonstration advanced stroke centers and 280 advanced stroke centers, and 127 stroke prevention centers, including 85 demonstration stroke prevention centers and 42 stroke prevention centers. The median time from admission to intravenous thrombolysis (DNT) at the advanced stroke center was decreased by 13.2% (53 min vs. 46 min) in the fourth quarter of 2018 as compared with that in the first quarter of 2017.The national thrombolytic rate of acute ischemic stroke was increased 3.24 times (1.78% vs. 0.42%) in 2017 compared that in 2010. In the next step, SPTPC will vigorously promote the construction of stroke centers and graded diagnosis and treatment mechanisms, consolidate quality control and standardization, increase the scope of influence of mobile stroke and remote diagnosis and treatment, and further improve the construction of stroke center systems with Chinese characteristics.
摘要
Objective@#To investigate the association between the combination of different health-related behaviors and the risk of stroke in people with hypertension.@*Methods@#The data in this study were obtained from the China National Stroke Screening Survey (CNSSS). The case group was the people with hypertension who were also diagnosed as the first-ever stroke cases (total stroke and ischemic stroke) during 2013-2014 screening period. Their corresponding controls (1∶3 frequency-matched for age group and urban/rural ratio) were randomly selected from individuals with hypertension without stroke. The information on demographic data, stroke history, influence factors and health-related behaviors (non-smoking, normal body mass index maintenance and physical activity) was obtained using standardized face-to-face questionnaires. Univariate analysis included t-test and Chi-square test. Multivariate analysis included unconditional logistic regression.@*Results@#There were 603 total stroke cases (1 909 controls) and 536 ischemic stroke cases (1 608 controls) in men with hypertension, and 600 total stroke cases (1 800 controls) and 534 ischemic stroke cases (1 602 controls) in women with hypertension. We found that women with three health-related behaviors had lower risk of total stroke (OR=0.29, 95%CI: 0.11-0.79) and ischemic stroke (OR=0.28, 95%CI: 0.10-0.77). Only the combination of non-smoking and physical activity was significantly associated with the decreased risk of total stroke (OR=0.30, 95%CI: 0.11-0.78) and ischemic stroke (OR=0.32, 95%CI: 0.12-0.87). We had not found significant association between the combination of different health-related behaviors and risk of total stroke and ischemic stroke (P>0.05) in men.@*Conclusion@#This study indicated that health-related behavior intervention might be more effectively to prevent stroke in women with hypertension, especially the smoking control and physical activity.

Objective@#To explore gender-specific factors and their contributions to ischemic stroke among atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. @*Methods@#A case-control study was conducted. The relevant data were obtained from the database of China National Stroke Screening Survey. The cases were first-ever ischemic stroke cases diagnosed from September 2013 to September 2015. Frequency-matched for the age and distribution of city and country, controls were randomly selected by 1∶3 ratio from individuals with AF but without stroke in the program. Altogether, there were 85 male cases (320 controls) and 147 female cases (484 controls). Unconditional logistic regression model was applied for the analysis of relevant factors of the onset of ischemic stroke, and their population-attributable risk proportion [PARP, (95%CI)] was calculated. @*Results@#The age of male subjects in the case group and control group were (65.26±11.20) and (64.83±11.08) years old, and that of females in two groups were (63.63±10.40) and (63.93±10.35) years old. According to the PARP (95%CI), relevant factors of the onset of ischemic stroke in a descending sequence were hypertension history [35.63 (18.64−47.73)], family history of stroke [28.70 (23.63−32.30)]and physical inactivity [15.73 [5.62−23.06)] among male AF patients, and family history of stroke (29.39 (24.21−33.08)), dyslipidemia (22.17 (2.26−36.45)) and smoking [2.09 (0.76−3.24)] among female AF patients. @*Conclusion@#The relevant factors of ischemic stroke were different between male and female AF patients.

摘要
AIM To investigate whether the relaxation characteristics of phytoestrogens resveratrol and phloretin on contractile response of aortic strips are similar to that of estrogen and the mechanisms underground. METHODS Aortic strips from rabbits were suspended in organ baths containing Krebs solution, and then isometric tension was measured. RESULTS Resveratrol and phloretin inhibited the contractile responses to norepinephrine (NE), KCl and CaCl2, shifted their concentration-response curves rightward with pD2′ values of 2.89, 3.34, 3.37 for resveratrol and 3.23, 3.52, 3.77 for phloretin respectively. Also both of them concentration-dependently relaxed KCl-precontracted aortic strip. The relaxing response of resveratrol but not of phloretin in aortic strip was significantly reduced by removal of endothelium or incubation with Nω-L-nitro-arginine and methylthioninium chloride, however both their relaxant effects were not affected by indometacin and propranolol. In Ca2+-free Krebs solution containing 0.01 mmol·L-1 EGTA, resveratrol and phloretin inhibited NE-induced contraction which was caused by Ca2+ release from intracellular store, but did not affect the contraction which was induced by Ca2+ influx. CONCLUSION Resveratrol and phloretin can induce vasorelaxations which may relate to inhibition of Ca2+ influx through potential-dependent calcium channels and Ca2+ release from intracellular stores, and the relaxing response of resveratrol is endothelium-dependent in part, but of phloretin is not endothelium-dependent.
