Objective: To investigate risk factors of acute cerebrovascular events and effects on the prognosis within 1 year after hip fracture surgery.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 320 elderly patients with hip fracture treated from July 2017 to December 2020, including 111 males and 209 females, aged from 60 to 101 years old with an average of (79.05±8.

This study aims to explore underlying mechanism of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos(LJF) in protecting rats against acute alcoholic liver injury(ALI) based on mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK) pathway. First, the targets of LJF in preventing ALI were predicted by network pharmacology and the component-target-pathway network was constructed, so that the key targets of LJF components acting on MAPK pathway were screened. Second, male SD rats were randomized into the control(KB) group, model(MX) group, positive(YX) group, and LJF high-(GJ), medium-(ZJ), and low-(DJ) dose groups.

Objective: To observe the efficacy and safety of PEG-interferon alpha-2a (PEG-IFNalpha-2a) treatment on lamivudine (LAM)-resistant chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients.
Methods: Eighty-one patients with lamivudine-resistant HBeAg (+) chronic hepatitis B patients were enrolled and divided into PEG-IFNalpha-2a treatment group (40 cases) and adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) control group (41 cases). Two groups were combined with LAM in the first 12 weeks(w).
Background: A liver support therapy, named molecular adsorbents recirculating system (MARS), has been used for more than 700 liver failure patients in China. We made here a summary to evaluate the effects of MARS treatment in different applications with emphasis on hepatitis B virus (HBV) based liver failure.
Methods: This report analyzed data of 252 patients (mean age (44.
Objective: To study the clinical efficacy of three kinds of hybrid bioartificial liver support systems (HBLSS) in treating chronic severe hepatitis.
Methods: A bioartificial liver support system (BAL), comprising porcine hepatocytes and fiber tube style bioreactor, was constructed. Then three kinds of HBLSS were constructed: Molecular absorbent recirculating system (MARS) plus BAL; slow plasma exchange (SPE) plus continuous hemodiafiltration (CHDF) and BAL; and SPE plus hemoperfusion (HP) and BAL.

Objective: To assess the effectiveness of molecular adsorbent recirculation system (MARS) to remove nitric oxide(NO) and cytokines in multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MODS) in patients with severe liver failure.
Methods: Single MARS treatment were performed for 198 times with duration ranging from 6 to 24 hours on 61 MODS patients (42M/19F). The efficacy was evaluated by sequential organ failure assessment, biochemical parameters and the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Objective: To evaluate the epidemiologic feature, diagnosis and treatment of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS).
Methods: To describe the epidemiologic and clinical features of the first case of SARS in Foshan city, Guangdong province retrospectively, and to review the diagnostic procedure.
Results: This case had the following features: (1) a history of contact with mild cats and eating the animal's meat; (2) high fever (temperature, > 38 degrees C), followed by dry cough, rapid progression to respiratory failure, followed by radiographic evidence of bilateral air-space lesions; (3) no leukocytosis; (4) spread to 4 family members who had had direct contact with this patient; (5) the patient's serum SARS virus IgG was confirmed to be positive; (6) the patient was treated with anti-viral agents, antibiotics and mechanical ventilation and molecular adsorbent re-circulating system (MARS).
A previously healthy patient was transferred to our infectious department with a 9-day-history of continued fever. The patient was placed on assisted respiration support in addition to anti-viral medication. The diagnosis of SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) was made in view of the severe hypoxemia and the characteristic symptoms exhibited by the patient.
