ABSTRACT
This practice guideline focuses on the cognitive assessment for mild cognitive impairment in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. To achieve the standardization and normalization of its clinical practice and generate individualized intervention, the National Core Cognitive Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, the Cognitive Disorders Branch of Chinese Geriatic Society, the Dementia Group of Neurology Branch of Guangdong Medical Association and specialists from Hong Kong and Macao developed guidelines based on China's actual conditions and efficiency, economic cost and accuracy. The article addresses the significance, background, and the process of the assessment and follow-up to realize the promotion and dissemination of cognitive assessment.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To study the effects and potential mechanism of anaphylactoid reaction induced by nonapeptide IVQKIKHCF activating mast cells. METHODS Using human mast cell line LAD2 as subject， and substance P as positive control， the activation effects of 25， 50 and 100 μmol/L IVQKIKHCF on mast cells were investigated by determining the release rate of β-aminohexosidase， histamine release， and the contents of inflammatory factors； using MrgprX2-knockdown LAD2 cells and Mas- related G protein-coupled receptor X2 （MRGPRX2） high-expression human embryonic kidney cell line HEK293 （MRGPRX2/ HEK293 cells） as subject， the correlation between the activation effect of IVQKIKHCF and MRGPRX2 was investigated by determining the release rate of β-aminohexosidase， and intracellular calcium ion concentration. RESULTS IVQKIKHCF with 25， 50， 100 μmol/L could significantly increase the release rate of β-aminohexosidase and histamine release in LAD2 cells （P＜0.05）， and promote the release of tumor necrosis factor-α， interleukin-8， macrophage inflammatory protein-1β and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 to varying degrees （P＜0.05）. After knocking down MrgprX2， the effects of 25， 50， 100 μmol/L IVQKIKHCF promoting the release of β-aminohexosidase in LAD2 cells were reversed significantly （P＜0.05）， resulting in an increase of calcium ion concentration in MRGPRX2/HEK293 cells. CONCLUSIONS Nonapeptide IVQKIKHCF can promote mast cells to release granular matter and inflammatory mediators by activating MRGPRX2 thus inducing anaphylactoid reaction.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the efficacy of urinary kallidinogenase plus batroxobin in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction.Methods 105 patients with acute cerebral infarction were selected and divided into 3 groups:urinary kallidinogenase group (35 cases),combined treatment group (39 cases),batroxobin group (31 cases).The NIHSS score,Barthel Index,MRS score were evaluated before treatment and 10 days after treatment,and the clinical efficacy was compared.Results The NIHSS score significantly decreased after treatment in the three groups (all P ＜ 0.05).The effective rate of combined treatment group was better than that of the single treatment group (urinary kallidinogenase group or batroxobin group) [79.5 ％ (31/39),71.4 ％ (25/35),35.4％ (11/31) (x2 =15.801,P =0.001)].The Barthel Index and MRS score of combined treatmentgroup were better than those of the batroxobin group (P =0.003),not better than the urinary kallidinogenase group (P =0.766).Conclusion Urinary kallidinogenase plus batroxobin is effective in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction.
