Objective@#To investigate the reversibility of ischemic core defined by CT perfusion imaging in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis within different time windows and influencing factors.@*Methods@#The data of AIS patients who received intravenous thrombolysis in the Department of Neurology of Lishui People′s Hospital from May 2016 to December 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. All patients had finished multi-model CT imaging before thrombolysis and multi-model MRI examination 24-48 hours after thrombolysis. The baseline ischemic core volume (hypoperfusion area with relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF)<30%) was quantitatively assessed based on CT perfusion images using MIStar software, and the final ischemic core volume was assessed based on diffusion weighted imaging acquired 24-48 hours after thrombolysis. The reversibility of ischemic core was defined as baseline ischemic core volume-the final infarct volume ≥5 ml. Then the clinical and imaging features of the patients between reversible group and irreversible group were compared, and the predictors of ischemic core reversibility were analyzed by binary Logistic regression analysis.@*Results@#Finally, 97 patients were enrolled in the present study, of which 64 (66%) patients achieved successful recanalization, 51 (53%) patients with reversible baseline ischemic core. For patients with recanalization, the incidence of reversibility was 76% (26/34), 71% (17/24), 2/5 and 0 (0/1) in patients with time window from onset to thrombolysis (ONT) <3.0 h, 3.0-4.5 h, 4.6-6.0 h, and >6.0 h, respectively. In the non-recanalization group, six patients were also showed with ischemic core reversibility, including 4 (4/12) in the ONT<3.0 h group and 2 (2/12) in the ONT 3.0-4.5 h group. It was found that the reversible volume was positively correlated with baseline ischemic core volume (r=0.805, P<0.001) by Spearman correlation analysis. Finally, binary Logistic regression analysis revealed that the history of hypertension, ONT and recanalization were independent predictors of reversible changes of baseline ischemic core.@*Conclusions@#The ischemic core defined by CT perfusion imaging (rCBF<30%) was considerably inaccurate for patients with ONT<6.0 h. If recanalization could be achieved within this time window, most of the patients would manifest with ischemic core reversibility, the predictors of which also included hypertension history and ONT.

OBJECTIVE:To comp are cytotoxicity and anti-inflammatory effects of raw Aconitium kusnezoffii and A. kusnezoffii processed with Terminalia chebula . METHODS :Using H 9c2 cardiomyocytes isolated from rat as subjects ,CCK-8 assay was used to detect the effects of 0.5,1,2,4,6,8,10 mg/mL raw A. kusnezoffii and A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula on cell inhibition rate after cultured for 4,8,12,24 h. Hoechst 33258 staining was used to observe the effects on cell morphology characteristics after treated with 2,4,6 mg/mL raw A. kusnezoffii and A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula . Using macrophages RAW264.7 cells as subjects ,CCK-8 assay was used to detect the effects of 0.05,0.1,0.25,0.5,0.75,1,1.5,2 mg/mL raw A. kusnezoffii and A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula on cell survival rate after cultured for 24 h. ELISA assay was used to detect the effects of 0.05,0.1,0.25,0.5 mg/mL raw A. kusnezoffii and A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula on the release of NO , TNF-α and IL-6 in RAW 264.7 inflammation cells induced by LPS. RESULTS :When the mass concentration was 0.5,1 mg/mL, neither raw A. kusnezoffii and A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula had no inhibitory effect on H 9c2 cells. When the mass concentration was 2 mg/mL,the inhibitory effects of A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula on H 9c2 cells was higher than that of raw A. kusnezoffii (P<0.05 or P<0.01);fluorescence intensity of cells treated for 24 h was stronger than that of raw A. kusnezoffii,but its nucleus was intact. When the mass concentration was 4-10 mg/mL,the inhibitory rate of A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula on H 9c2 cells at different time points (except for 24 h culture of 8,10 mg/mL)was significantly lower than raw A. kusnezoffii (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The characteristics of cell morphology also showed that the fluorescence intensity of raw A. kusnezoffii group at 4,6 mg/mL was stronger than that of A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula group,and the cell nucleus fragmentation was more serious in the raw A. kusnezoffii group. 0.05-0.5 mg/mL raw A. kusnezoffii and A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula had no toxicity to RAW264.7 cells. 0.25,0.5 mg/mL raw A. kusnezoffii and 0.1,0.25,0.5 mg/mL A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula showed significant inhibitory effect on the release of NO ,0.05,0.1,0.25,0.5 mg/mL raw A. kusnezoffii and A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula showed significant inhibitory effect on the release of TNF-α and IL-6 in RAW 264.7 cell(P<0.05 or P< 0.01). The inhibitory effects of A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula at the same concentration on the release of NO was better than that of raw A. kusnezoffii ,but poorer than raw A. kusnezoffii in the inhibitory effects on the release of TNF-α and IL-6. CONCLUSIONS:The toxicity of A. kusnezoffii can be reduced after processed with T. chebula ,especially the toxicity of it in medium or high concentration and short-term use is lower than that of raw A. kusnezoffii . At the same time ,the anti-inflammatory effect of A. kusnezoffii processed with T. chebula is comparable to that of raw A. kusnezoffii at the same concentration.

Objective To evaluate the effects of selective brain hypothermia on the expression of miR-484 during cerebral ischemia-reperfusion ( I/R) in rats. Methods A total of 120 clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8-10 weeks, weighing 250-300 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group ( group S) , cerebral I/R group ( group I/R) , hypothermia group ( group H) and normothermia group ( group N) . Blood vessels were only separa-ted and ligated without blockade in group S. In the other three groups, cerebral I/R was induced by inser-ting a nylon thread with rounded tip into the right internal carotid artery, and the middle cerebral artery was occluded for 2 h followed by reperfusion. In group H, 4℃ normal saline was infused for 15 min at a rate of 80 ml·kg-1 ·h-1 through the internal carotid artery immediately after removing the nylon thread. In group N, 37 ℃ normal saline was infused in the same way. Neurological deficit scores were evaluated at 6, 24 and 48 h after reperfusion. Animals were then sacrificed, the cerebral cortex of the ischemic penumbra was removed for determination of nerve cell apoptosis ( by TUNEL method) , expression of mitochondrial fission protein 1 ( Fis1) ( by Western blot) and expression of miR-484 ( quantitative real-time polymerase chain re-action) . The apoptotic rate was calculated. Results Compared with group S, the neurological deficit score and apoptotic rate of nerve cells were significantly increased, and the expression of Fis1 was up-regulated at each time point in the other three groups, the expression of miR-484 was significantly down-regulated in I/R and N groups, and the expression of miR-484 was significantly up-regulated in group H ( P<0. 05 or 0. 01) . Compared with group I/R and group N, the neurological deficit score and apoptotic rate of nerve cells were significantly decreased, and the expression of Fis1 was down-regulated, and the expression of miR-484 was up-regulated at each time point in group H ( P<0. 05 or 0. 01) . Conclusion The mechanism by which se-lective cerebral hypothermia attenuates cerebral I/R injury is associated with up-regulating miR-484 expres-sion and thus down-regulating Fis1 expression in rats.

Objective To examine the effectiveness of simulation newborn simulator in neona-tal resuscitation training for pediatric residents. Methods From June 2011 to June 2012, 11 residents working in neonatal ward of the Third Hospital of Peking University were enrolled into the study. Eval-uation on the residents was made before the training. Training of simulated teaching using simulation newborn simulator was conducted and evaluation was made after the training. SPSS 18.0 was used for statistical analysis. Comparison was made between pre- and post-training test by paired t test. P<0.05 was considered statistical significant. Questionnaire survey was conduct to acquire residents' feedback. Results A total of 11 participants completed the training and finished the questionnaire. The score of pre-training was 37.82±1.17 versus that of post-training 39.18±0.87(t=4.89, P<0.01). All residents were satisfied with the simulation-based training. Conclusion Simulation training can improve pedi-atric residents' knowledge and skills in neonatal resuscitation.
