Objective: To analyze the clinical efficacy of neurointerventional catheter thrombolysis for cerebral infarction. METHODS: A total of 56 patients with cerebral infarction admitted to our hospital from April 2018 to June 2019 were enrolled for the experimental study. Two different treatments were applied to patients, and patients were divided into observation groups and controls according to different treatment methods. After grouped into two groups the control group was treated with intravenous thrombolysis. The observation group was treated with neurointerventional arterial catheter thrombolysis. The treatment effect, NIHSS score and BI index, neurological deficit score before and after treatment, and coagulation index were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: The therapeutic effect of the observation group (92.86%) was significantly different from that of the control group (67.86%), and the observation group was higher than the control group. The data of the observation group in the NIHSS score and the BI index were 5.42±1.77 and 95.64±2.15, respectively, which were better than the control group. The neurological deficit scores of the observation group before and after treatment were 19.88±6.24 and 9.14±5.81, respectively. After treatment, the difference was significant compared with the control group, p<0.05. The coagulation indexes of the observation group in FIB, PT, TT, etc. were respectively 3.68±1.04, 11.46±1.62, 15.37±2.46, all were better than the control group (2.13±0.47, 13.72±2.72, 19.85±2.62), P<0.05.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) intravenous thrombolysis in combination with mild hypothermia therapy in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction. Methods: One hundred and thirty-two patients with acute cerebral infarction who were admitted to our hospital were selected and grouped into a control group and an observation group, 66 each group. Patients in the control group were given conventional treatment in combination with local mild hypothermia therapy, and patients in the observation group were given rt-PA intravenous thrombolysis on the basis of conventional treatment and local mild hypothermia therapy. National institute of health stroke scale (NIHSS) score and intracranial pressure (ICP) of the two groups before and after treatment was recorded. The efficacy of the two groups was evaluated. The modified Rankin scale (MRS) score was followed up for three months. The blood samples of the patients were collected before and after thrombolysis. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the plasma were detected. Results: The NIHSS score of the two groups decreased in the 1st, 3rd and 7th day after treatment compared to before treatment (p<0.05), but the NIHSS score of the two groups had no significant difference at different time points after treatment (p>0.05). The ICP of the two groups decreased in the 1st, 3rd and 7th day after treatment compared to before treatment (p<0.05), and the decrease of ICP of the observation group was more significant than that of the control group at the same time point (1st, 3rd and 7th day after treatment) (p<0.05). The clinical efficacy of the observation group was higher than that of the control group after treatment, and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). The MDA concentration of both groups decreased at different time points after treatment (p<0.05), but the SOD concentration increased (p<0.05). The MDA concentration of the observation group was lower than that of the control group at different time points after treatment (p<0.05), and the SOD concentration of the observation group was higher than that of the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: rt-PA intravenous thrombolysis in combination with mild hypothermia therapy has significant efficacy in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction. It can effectively relieve neurological function. Its action mechanism may be realized by relieving oxidative stress response. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.35.4.311 How to cite this:Liu X, Rao S, Wang J.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of sequential butylphthalide therapy combined with dual antiplatelet therapy in the treatment of elderly patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI). Methods: One hundred and twenty-two elderly patients with ACI who were admitted to the department of neurology of our hospital at May 2016-August 2018 were selected grouped into a control group and an observation group by random number table method, 61 in each group. On the basis of conventional treatment, the patients in the control group were given dual antiplatelet therapy (aspirin enteric-coated tablets + clopidogrel bisulfate tablets), while the patients in the observation group were given sequential butylphthalide therapy on the basis of the control group. The clinical effects of the two groups were compared after four weeks of treatment, and the changes of National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), ADL score, plasma 3-mercaptopyruvate sulphurtransferase (3-MST) and Amyloid β42 (Aβ42) levels and the occurrence of adverse reactions during treatment were recorded. Results: The clinical efficacy of the observation group was better than that of the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in NIHSS and ADL scores between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05). After treatment, the NIHSS and ADL scores of the observation group were better than those of the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in plasma levels of 3-MST and AB42 between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05). The level of plasma 3-MST in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, and the level of plasma Aβ42 was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). No serious adverse reactions occurred during the treatment period in both groups. Conclusion: Butylphthalide sequential therapy combined with dual antiplatelet therapy is effective in the treatment of elderly ACI. It can effectively improve the plasma level of 3-MST and decrease the plasma level of Aβ42, which is conducive to improving the living ability and neurological function of patients and has high safety. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.36.4.1831 How to cite this:Wo X, Han J, Wang J, Wang X, Liu X, Wang Z.

Objective. This study aimed to explore the clinical efficacy and relevant mechanism of Tripterygium glycosides combined with low molecular weight heparin calcium (LMWH) in the treatment of Henoch–Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN) in children. Methods. 64 cases of children patients with HSPN treated at Qilu Hospital (Qingdao) from January 2015 to May 2020 were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the observation group and 32 cases in each group. Conventional medical treatment was applied in the two groups, besides which the control group was given LMWH while the observation group was given Tripterygium glycosides based on the control group. The clinical efficacy and the indexes of clinical symptoms of the two groups were compared. Immune globulin level, fibrinogen content (FIB), prothrombin time (PT), platelet level (PLT), and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) level of the two groups were compared before and after the treatment. Results. The total effective rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group, and the recurrence rate in the observation group was lower than that in the control group. After treatment, urine red blood cell count and 24 h urine protein were obviously better than those of the control group. There was no statistically significant difference in PT between the two groups of children before and after treatment. The levels of PLT and FIB in the two groups of patients after treatment were significantly lower than before treatment, and the PLT levels in the observation group were lower than those in the control group. Conclusion. The combination of Tripterygium glycosides and LMWH had good clinical effects in the treatment of children with HSPN, and it could improve the clinical symptoms, the mechanism of which might be related to the increase of PT, a decrease of PLT, and the improvement of coagulation function.
