目的 采用网络药理学阐明济脉通片多成分-多靶点-多途径的作用理念，为进一步研究济脉通片降压药效物质基础和机制提供一定理论参考。方法 通过TCMSP数据库，结合口服利用度（≥ 30%）和类药性分析（≥ 0.18）参数，筛选济脉通片的活性成分；通过Drugbank和TCMSP数据库进行靶点预测分析；通过GENCARD数据库筛选出高血压疾病相关基因；结合DAVID和KEGG数据库进行GO分析和通路分析；使用Cystoscope软件构建"化合物-靶点-作用通路"网络图。结果 经筛选后得到济脉通片的33个化合物，148个潜在靶基因并映射到了223条信号通路，其中31条信号通路与高血压的发生发展密切相关，其中AGE-RAGE signaling pathway in diabetic complications、PI3K-Akt signaling pathway、TNFsignaling pathway、Adrenergic signaling in cardiomyocytes和Focal adhesion为重要的通路枢纽。结论 济脉通片主要通过多成分、多靶点、多通路调节血管内皮功能、炎症反应、钙钠离子转运、糖脂代谢等参与血管舒张、改善炎症、调节机体代谢、调节离子转运等而产生降压作用。     

Investigation of non-linear Mate1-mediated efflux of trimethoprim in the mouse kidney as the mechanism underlying drug-drug interactions between trimethoprim and organic cations in the kidney

The purpose of this study was to elucidate the involvement of Mate1 in the tubular secretion of trimethoprim and saturation of Mate1-mediated efflux to address the mechanisms underlying the pharmacokinetic drug interactions with trimethoprim. Trimethoprim is a more potent inhibitor of MATE2-K than MATE1 with K_i values (μM) of 0.030–0.28 and 2.4–5.9, respectively. Trimethoprim is a substrate of human MATE1 and MATE2-K with K_m values of 2.3 ± 0.9 and 0.018 ± 0.004 μM, and mouse Mate1, but not human OCT2, mouse Oct1 and Oct2. Pyrimethamine significantly reduced the renal clearance (CL_R) of trimethoprim (mL/min/kg) from 40.0 ± 5.1 to 20.1 ± 3.7 (p < 0.05). Trimethoprim was given to mice at three infusion rates (150, 500, and 1500 nmol/min/kg). Together with an increase in the plasma concentrations of trimethoprim, the CL_R (mL/min/kg) of trimethoprim decreased to 25.9 ± 3.2, 13.5 ± 5.7, and 8.92 ± 1.50 at the respective rates. Trimethoprim decreased the CL_R of rhodamine 123 in an infusion rate-dependent manner: 11.5 ± 1.3 (control), 5.17 ± 1.55, 1.31 ± 0.50, and 0.532 ± 0.180. These results suggest that Mate1 mediates the tubular secretion of trimethoprim, and at therapeutic doses, MATEs-mediated efflux can be saturated, and thereby, cause drug interactions with other MATE substrates.     

Patients with Gastric Antral Vascular Ectasia (GAVE) Are at a Higher Risk of Gastrointestinal Bleeding in the Absence of Cirrhosis

Background and Aims: Gastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE) is commonly found in patients with cirrhosis, but it is also associated with other diseases in the absence of cirrhosis. Whether GAVE confers a different severity of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding between patients with and without cirrhosis remains unknown. We aim to examine whether there is a difference in clinically significant GI bleeding due to GAVE in patients with or without cirrhosis. Methods: This is a retrospective case-control study of patients who were diagnosed with GAVE between January 2000 and June 2014. Patients were categorized into cirrhosis and noncirrhosis groups, and those with an additional GI bleeding source were excluded. Univariate comparisons and multivariable models were constructed using logistic regression. Results: In total, 110 patients diagnosed with GAVE on esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) were included in our analysis; 84 patients had cirrhosis (76.4%) and 26 (23.6%) did not. Active GI bleeding was more prevalent in patients without cirrhosis (63.4% vs. 32.1%, p=0.003) despite similar indications for EGD, and endoscopic treatment with argon plasma coagulation (APC) was required more often in this group, approaching statistical significance (27% vs. 10.7%, p=0.056). There was no difference in bleeding severity, as evidenced by similar re-bleeding rates, surgery, or death attributed to uncontrolled bleeding. The strongest independent risk factor for GI bleeding was the absence of cirrhosis (odds ratio (OR): 5.151 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.08-24.48, p=0.039). Conclusions: Patients with GAVE in the absence of cirrhosis are at higher risk for active GI bleeding and require more frequent endoscopic treatment than similar patients with cirrhosis. It may be worthwhile to treat GAVE in this population even in the absence of active bleeding.

肌少症对老年肝癌术后恢复及预后的影响

目的:肌少症对老年肝癌术后恢复及预后的影响。方法:选取2015年1月至2017年12月收治的114例老年肝癌，根据有无合并肌少症，分为肌少症组（n=35）和非肌少症组（n=79）。比较两组患者的术后恢复及生存情况。结果:肌少症组总并发症发生率、住院时间和30 d再入院率均高于对照组，差异均有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。肌少症组中位生存时间为25.9个月，1年、2年、3年累积总生存率为74.3%、51.1%、24.5%，而非肌少症组中位生存时间为35.7个月，1年、2年、3年累积总生存率为87.3%、75.6%、49.4%，差异有统计学意义（P=0.004）。单因素分析结果显示，老年肝癌术后预后与Charlson合并症指数（CCI）、肌少症、巴塞罗那分期（BCLC）、甲胎蛋白、肿瘤大小、肿瘤个数、肿瘤分化程度、微血管侵犯（MVI）相关（P＜0.05）。Cox多因素分析结果显示，CCI、肌少症、BCLC分期、肿瘤个数、MVI是老年肝癌术后预后的独立危险因素（P＜0.05）。结论:肌少症会增加老年肝癌患者术后并发症发生率，延长住院时间，影响术后恢复，同时也会降低总生存率。     

“治未病”思想在老年高血压病防治中的应用探讨

老年高血压病以肾气亏虚为主要病机,具有特殊的发病基础、临床症状、传变规律和预后。以"治未病"思想为指导,在老年高血压病发生、发展、预后的各个阶段进行提前干预,有利于扶助正气,增强抗病能力,延缓病情进展。具体而言,未病之时,应通过调整生活方式、服用中药保养和培补肾气,做到未病先防。已病之时,既病防变,阴阳俱虚者,治以补益肾气,方选肾气丸加减;肾阴虚者,治以滋阴补肾,方选左归丸合天麻钩藤饮加减;肾阳虚者,治以温补肾阳,方选右归丸加减。疾病初愈之时,继续以中药补肾虚、调气血,同时避免六淫邪气与情志内伤对机体的损害,以防疾病复发。     

Effect of group reminiscence therapy on depression and perceived meaning of life of veterans diagnosed with dementia at veteran homes

ABSTRACT

Most senior veterans who live in veteran homes in Taiwan have few interpersonal relationships. Aging is often accompanied by solitude and illness, which causes senior veterans to doubt the meaning of life and to lose confidence in the value of life. This study tested the effectiveness of a group reminiscence therapy protocol on the depression and meaning of life among elderly institutionalized veterans. A quasi-experimental design was applied. A convenience sample of older adults was drawn from two veteran homes in southern Taiwan. Participants were assigned to intervention or control groups based on the veterans' homes they attended. The participants in the intervention group carried out group reminiscence therapy for 8 weeks in addition to their daily activities. The participants in the comparison group maintained their daily activities. Both groups were evaluated using the GDS-SF and MLS scale including two aspects of depression mood and meaning of life in weeks 1 and 8. The overall life satisfaction increased significantly over time for the intervention group compared to the comparison group from week 1 to week 8. The group reminiscence therapy programs showed promising effects in improving the depression and meaning of life of older veterans living in veteran homes.     

四方联动防跌护理在社区跌倒高危老年人中的应用

目的探讨专科护士-社区护士-个体-家庭四方联动防跌护理模式在社区跌倒高危老年人中的应用与效果。方法选取深圳市龙岗区的2个社区,随机分为观察组和对照组,从两个社区登记建档的跌倒高风险老年居民中分别随机抽选45名进行干预。观察组采用"专科护士-社区护士-个体-家庭"四方联动推进的综合干预方案。对照组接受社区防跌倒常规护理。于干预前及干预后12个月使用修订版社区老年人跌倒危险评估量表、步态和平衡测试量表对两组老年人进行评测,记录两组1年内跌倒发生例次。结果干预期间跌倒发生情况:观察组1人次,对照组6人次。观察组步态和平衡测试得分提高,跌倒危险评估表得分降低,与对照组比较,差异有统计学意义(均P0.01)。结论四方联动的综合干预方案应用于社区居家老年人,能有效降低老年人跌倒风险,提升其防跌能力,对预防社区老年人跌倒的发生有积极作用。
