Objectives: To investigate the effect of atorvastatin on inflammatory factors, hemorheology, and renal function damage in patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN). Methods: One hundred and six DN patients who were treated in our hospital between June 2018 and August 2019 were selected and randomly grouped into observation group and control group, 53 each group. Patients in the control group were given the conventional treatment; patients in the observation group were given atorvastatin treatment on the basis of the conventional treatment. They were treated for three months. The hemorheology indexes (whole blood viscosity, erythrocyte aggregation index, and fibrinogen (FIB)), renal function damage indexes (macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM)-1, Secreted frizzled-related protein-5 (SFRP5), and mAIb/Cr) and inflammatory factor related indexes (C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-1 (IL-1), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)) were compared between the two groups before and after three months of treatment. Results: After three months of treatment, the hemorheology indexes, renal function damage indexes, and inflammatory factors related indexes in the two groups changed. Compared with the control group, the whole blood viscosity, erythrocyte aggregation index, FIB, MIF, VACM-1, mAIb/Cr, CRP, IL-1, and TNF-α levels in the observation group significantly decreased, while the levels of SERP-5 significantly increased; the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: Atorvastatin can effectively alleviate the renal function damage in patients with DN, reduce the level of serum inflammatory factors, and improve hemorheology, which has a good clinical application value for DN patients. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.37.5.4045 How to cite this:Li R, Shi T, Xing E, Qu H.

This study is to investigate the effect of atorvastatin combined with losartan on inflammatory factors, vascular endothelial function, and cardiovascular events in patients with diabetic nephropathy. A total of 128 patients with diabetic nephropathy treated in our hospital from January 2014 to December 2015 were selected as the study subjects, and 64 cases were randomly divided into observation group and 64 cases in the control group. The control group was treated with losartan on the basis of routine treatment, and the observation group was treated with atorvastatin on the basis of the control group. The blood lipid, inflammatory factors, changes in vascular endothelial function and cardiovascular events were compared between the two groups. The levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were not significantly different between the two groups before treatment ( P > 0.05); after treatment, the levels of TC, TG, and LDL-C in the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group, and the level of HDL-C was significantly higher than that of the control group ( P < 0.05). The levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), and interleukin 6 (IL-6) were not statistically different between the two groups before treatment ( P > 0.05); after treatment, the levels of hs-CRP, TNF-α, and IL-6 in the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group ( P < 0.05), the level of HDL-C was significantly higher than that of the control group ( P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the levels of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and nitric oxide (NO) between the two groups before treatment ( P > 0.05). After treatment, the level of ET-1 in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P < 0.05), and the level of NO was significantly higher than that of the control group ( P < 0.05). After treatment, all patients were followed up for 2 years, and the incidence of secondary cardiovascular events in the observation group was 12.50% (8/64), which was significantly lower than 29.69% (19/64) of the control group ( P < 0.05). Combination of atorvastatin and losartan can significantly improve the levels of blood lipid, inflammatory factors, and vascular endothelial function in patients with diabetic nephropathy and can effectively reduce the incidence of cardiovascular events.

This study is to investigate the high expression of miR-365, cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) and inflammatory factors in knee osteoarthritis and their correlation with disease activity. The 94 patients with knee osteoarthritis were selected as the observation group. Controls were 94 healthy people matched according to the age and gender of the observation group. The expression levels of blood miR-365, cartilage oligomeric matrix protein, and the inflammatory IL-6 and TNF-α were compared between two groups and correlations between these indicators and Lysholm knee scores were determined. The serum levels of miR-365, cartilage oligomeric matrix protein and the inflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-α in osteoarthritis patients exceeded those in the normal control group (P < 0 05), and miR-365 was positively correlated with cartilage oligomeric matrix protein and IL-6 and TNF-α (P < 0 05). In addition, the positive correlation was found between the Lysholm osteoarthritis score and the above factors (P < 0 05). Finally, logistic analysis of elevated peripheral blood miR-365 and COMP is an independent risk factor for osteoarthritis. MiR-365, COMP and inflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-α are highly expressed in knee osteoarthritis.

This study was designed to analyze the effects of atorvastatin on microcirculation, blood lipids, inflammatory factors, and characteristic markers in patients with diabetic nephropathy. A total of 170 patients with diabetic nephropathy randomly divided into control and study groups with 85 patients in each group. The control group was treated with diet and lifestyle intervention, and hypoglycemic drugs. The study group was additionally treated with atorvastatin. Nitric oxide (NO), endothelin-1 (ET-1), thromboxane-2 (TXB2), 6-ketone-prostaglandin F-1α (6-Keto-PGF-1α), superoxide dismutase (SOD), total cholesterol (TC), triacylglycerols (TGs), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), homocysteine (Hcy), cystatin C (CysC), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels were observed for 8 weeks. Post-treatment of atorvastatin, the levels of NO, 6-Keto-PGF-1α, and SOD were significantly higher than pre-treatment in both groups, while the levels of ET-1 and TXB2 were lower than pre-treatment ( P < 0.05). The levels of NO, 6-Keto-PGF-1α, and SOD in the study group post-treatment were significantly higher ( P < 0.05) than the control group, and the levels of ET-1 and TXB2 in the study group were lower than the control group. After 8 weeks, the levels of TC, TG, and LDL were significantly lower, while the level of HDL was significantly higher in the study group. The level of TC was lower in the control group of post-treatment, while the HDL level was higher than pre-treatment ( P < 0.05). The levels of CRP, TNF-α, and IL-6 in the study group of post-treatment were significantly lower than pre-treatment comparing to the control group ( P < 0.05). There was no statistical significance ( P > 0.05) for above-mentioned indicators in control groups of pre- and post-treatment. The levels of VEGF, CysC, and Hcy in the two groups were lower than pre-treatment. Atorvastatin could effectively improve all the study parameters.

The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of expanded endonasal approaches (EEAs) in the treatment of pituitary adenoma, and the effects of serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-12 (IL-12) in patients were further analyzed. A total of 80 cases of patients with pituitary adenoma admitted to our hospital from January 2013 to May 2015 were randomly divided into the observation group and control group, with 40 cases in each group. The observation group was treated with EEA technique, while the control group was treated with transcranial microsurgery. The prolactin (PRL), growth hormone (GH) and other endocrine hormone indexes, as well as inflammatory factors such as TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-12 were compared before and 1 week after the operation between the two groups. Moreover, the scores of Karnofsky performance status (KPS) and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) at preoperative and postoperative 1 week were also compared between the two groups. The operation time, hospitalization time, and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. And the patients were followed up for 2 years to observe the recurrence rate. The operation time and hospital stay in the observation group were 62.8 ± 9.3 min and 12.5 ± 2.1 days, respectively, while the operation time and length of stay in the control group were 105.6 ± 15.7 min and 18.2 ± 3.4 days, respectively. The operation time and hospitalization time were shorter than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). Before surgery, there was no significant difference in serum levels of PRL and GH between the two groups ( P > 0.05). At 1 week after surgery, the levels of PRL and GH in the two groups were significantly lower than those before surgery ( P < 0.05). And the serum levels of PRL and GH in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the observation group at 1 week after the operation ( P < 0.05). Before operation, there was no significant difference between the two groups of KPS and MMSE scores ( P > 0.05). At 1 week after operation, the scores of KPS and MMSE in both groups were significantly higher than those before the operation ( P < 0.05), and the scores of KPS and MMSE in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P < 0.05). Furthermore, there was no significant difference in the serum levels of IL-6, IL-12, and TNF-α between the two groups before operation ( P > 0.05). At 1 week after surgery, the serum levels of IL-6, IL-12, and TNF-α in the two groups were significantly lower than those before surgery ( P < 0.05), while the serum levels of IL-6, IL-12, and TNF-α in the observation group were evidently lower than those in the control group at 1 week after the operation. Besides, the incidence of postoperative complications in the observation group was 7.5%, which was significantly lower than that in the control group (17.5%) ( P < 0.05). All the patients in the two groups were followed up for 2 years. And there was no recurrence in the observation group and one case in the control group. The therapeutic effect of EEAs on pituitary adenoma is better. It can improve the level of high endocrine hormone in patients with pituitary adenoma, improve the functional status of the patients, reduce the serum level of inflammatory factors, and shorten the hospital stay. Meanwhile, it also has the characteristics of fewer complications and low recurrence rate, so it can be popularized in clinical practice.

Purpose: To investigate the comparative anti-thrombotic effects of saffron and Honghua, and also to explore possible mechanisms in thrombosis based on network pharmacology. Methods: A network pharmacology model was used for bioactive components, targets and pathways for saffron and HongHua via Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP), PharmMapper, Genecard, Uniprot and KEGG databases. In animal experiments, 72 rats were randomly divided into 9 groups: normal control group (NC), model control group (MC), crocetin groups (80, 40, 20 mg/kg), hydroxysafflor yellow A(HSYA) groups (80, 40, 20 mg/kg), and aspirin group (40 mg/kg). Using in vitro thrombosis models and an acute blood stasis model in vivo, the anti-thrombotic effects of these treatments on clotting time, hemorheology parameters, Thromboxane B2 (TXB2), plasmin activator inhibitor (PAI), protein C (PC), protein S (PS), and thrombinantithrombin complex (TAT) were determined and comparisons made for saffron and HongHua. Results: Five potential compounds, 16 anti-thrombotic targets and 27 pathways were predicted for saffron, while 22 compounds, 37 disease targets and 35 pathways were found for HongHua (p < 0.05). Pharmacological experiments revealed that crocetin and HSYA had significant effects on thrombus length, thrombus wet/dry mass, whole blood viscosity (WBV), erythrocyte aggregation index (EAI), clotting time and D-dimer for the high and middle groups. Unlike HSYA, crocetin also had significant and dose-dependent effects on PAI, prothrombin fragment 1+2 (F1+2) and PS and had highly significant effects on TXB2 and TAT. Conclusion: This research provides a systematic, comprehensive and comparative analysis of component, target and anti-thrombotic pathways of saffron and HongHua based on network pharmacology, and also shows that saffron has more significant anti-thrombotic effect than HongHua.

Purpose: To determine the therapeutic effect of Xuezhitong capsule in patients with microvascular angina (MVA), and its impact on vascular endothelial function.Methods: In total, 172 MVA patients treated in Beijing City Fengtai District Nanyuan Hospital from September 2017 to September 2019 were selected and randomized into control group which received conventional treatment, and treatment group which received Xuezhitong capsules plus. There were 86 patients in each group. Therapeutic effect, levels of inflammatory factors, i.e., high-sensitivity C- reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-(IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and vascular endothelial factors such as nitric oxide (NO), thromboxane B2 (TXB2) and endothelin (ET), were determined.Results: Markedly higher total treatment effectiveness was observed in the treatment group than in the control group (89.53 % vs. 72.94 %; p < 0.05). In both groups, treatment reduced the levels of hs-CRP, IL-6, TNF-α, TXB2 and ET, but elevated NO, with better results for treatment group than the control group (p < 0.05). Better optimizations of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TGs), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were observed in the treatment group, relative to the control group (p < 0.05). Patients in the treatment group experienced fewer (8.14%) adverse reactions than those in control group (21.18 %, p < 0.05).Conclusion: Xuezhitong capsule, when combined with conventional treatment, exerts high therapeutic effectiveness and safety in MVA patients by inhibiting inflammatory reactions, optimizing endothelialfunction, reducing blood lipid levels, and decreasing the incidence of cardiovascular adverse events. Thus, the combination therapy is a potentially superior therapeutic strategy to the conventional approach for the management of MVA patients.

Objective: To discuss the specific application of Zhuang Medicine Crystal Sugar Ye’An Decoction in senile skin pruritus and its effects on serum IgE detection level. Methods: 90 patients with senile skin pruritus admitted to our hospital from February 2019 to April 2020 were randomly grouped. The general treatment effect, itching, secondary skin lesion severity, serum IL-6, IgE level and adverse reactions between 45 patients treated with Chlorcyclizine Hydrochloride Tablets (The control group) and 45 patients treated with Crystal Sugar Ye’An Decoction were compared. Results: The total effective rate of the treatment in the observation group was 93.33%, much higher than that in the control group, 75.56%. The difference was verified and statistically significant (P<0.05). Before the treatment, the itching area, frequency, duration and severity of secondary skin lesions were at the same level (P>0.05). After the treatment, the above data were all reduced, and the reduction of the observation group was more significant than that of the control group, indicating the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Before the treatment, there was no difference in serum IL-6 and IgE test data between the two groups (P>0.05). After the treatment, the tendency all declined, and that of the observation group was more obvious, indicating the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). During the experiment, no obvious adverse reactions were observed in both groups. Conclusion: In the treatment of patients with senile pruritus, the application of Zhuang Medicine Crystal Sugar Ye’An Decoction is not only safe and reliable, but can promote the improvement of patients’ symptoms, adjust the level of inflammatory factors, and enhance clinical efficacy.
