ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect of B ultrasound-guided percutaneous catheter drainage combined with veno-venous hemofiltration at different time points and multi-site in treatment of hyperlipidemic severe acute pancreatitis (HL-SAP). MethodsThe clinical data of 34 patients with HL-SAP initially underwent B ultrasound-guided percutaneous catheter drainage combined with veno-venous hemofiltration at different time points and multi-site from January 2010 to June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different of the onset to treatment time, 34 cases were divided into the≤24 h group and > 24 h group. The serum platelet activating factor (PAF) and triglyceride (TG) at the time of admission and after admission 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 days were detected, and the hospitalization time, mortality, and the rate of conversion to open surgery were observed. ResultsThe levels of PAF and TG in the both groups tended to gradually decrease with different degrees, were significantly lower than that the before treatment (P < 0.05), and the decline of PAF and TG in≤24 h group were more significant than > 24 h group. The hospitalization time, mortality, and the rate of conversion to open surgery in the≤24 h group were significantly lower than those of the > 24 h group (P < 0.05). ConclusionThe early using of B ultrasound-guided percutaneous catheter drainage combined with veno-venous hemofiltration at different time points and multi-site would have a beneficial impact on the management of HL-SAP and complications.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of electroacupuncture in animal hyperlipidemia models. MethodsDatabases such as CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP, CBM, PubMed, EMbase and The Cochrane Library (Issue 12, 2013) were searched for studies concerning the efficacy and safety of electroacupuncture in animal hyperlipidemia models up to December 2013. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data and assessed the methodological quality of included studies by using reformative CAMARADES List. Then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.2 software. ResultsA total of 4 studies involving 89 rats were included. The average score of CAMARADES List was 4. The results of meta-analysis showed that:there were no significant differences between electroacupuncture group and medication group in reducing the levels of TC (MD=0.06, 95%CI -0.08 to 0.20, P=0.40), TG (MD=-0.01, 95%CI -0.08 to 0.06, P=0.74), LDL-C (MD=0.01, 95%CI -0.04 to 0.03, P=0.65) and increasing the level of HDL-C (MD=-0.00, 95%CI -0.09 to 0.08, P=0.93). ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that there are no differences between electroacupuncture and medication in reducing levels of TC, TG, LDL-C and increasing the level of HDL-C in hyperlipidaemia rats. But due to the limitation of sample size of included studies, more large-scale, high quality studies are needed.
Objective To compare two ways of establishing hyperlipidemia model in rats with fat emulsion.Methods Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups， which fed with normal diet （normal control group）， low concentration fat emulsion （low concentration fat emulsion group）， and high concentration fat emulsion （high concentration fat emulsion group）， respectively. All the rats were sacrificed and tested for serum total cholesterol （TC）， triglyceride （TG）， high density lipoprotein-cholesterol （HDL-C）， and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol （LDL-C）in two weeks after establishment. Results The levels of TC， TG， HDL-C， and LDL-C in the high concentration fat emulsion group were significantly higher than those in the normal control group and the low concentration fat emulsion group （P＜0.05）；the levels of TC， TG， and HDL-C in the low concentration fat emulsion group didn’t significantly differ from normal control group （P＞0.05）. Conclusions High concentration fat emulsion can be used to establish hyperlipidemia model in SD rats， low concentration fat emulsion is not suitable for establishing hyperlipidemia model in SD rats.
ObjectiveTo investigate the practice effect of WeChat on the treatment compliance of patients with hyperlipidaemia in general out-patient department. MethodsFrom June 2012 to May 2013, 178 patients with hyperlipidaemia who could use WeChat software were selected. The patients were randomly divided into the control group (87 patients) and experimental group (91 patients). All the patients were treatment with routine nursing intervention. The experimental group was giving nursing intervention based on WeChat. After 180 days, the compliance score and serum lipid level of the patient were tested and analyzed. ResultsThe score in experimental group on the treatment compliance were as follows:diet:6.57±0.78, take medicine:8.64±1.13, exercise:5.11±0.97, and return visit:5.75±0.74; the percentage effective control of lipid level was 93.4%. The score of the control group on the treatment compliance were as follows diet:4.63±1.23, take medicine:6.91±0.73, exercise:3.98±0.54, and return visit:4.86±0.39; the percentage effective control of lipid level was 57.5%. The difference in the results between two groups is significant (P<0.05). ConclusionApplying WeChat software on nursing intervention for patients with hyperlipidaemia may increase the treatment compliance and enhance the control of serum lipid level.
Objective To investigate the relationship between dyslipidemia and diabetic retinopathy in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus（NIDDM） patients． Methods In 55 health controls，60 NIDDM patients with DR and 75 NIDDM patients without DR，the plasma total cholesterol（TC），triglycerides（TG），high-density lipoprotein（HDL）and HDL subfractions，fasting plasma glucose（FPG），fasting plasma insulin（FINS）and glycosylated hemogolbin（HbA 1C）were measured，and the plasma lowdensity lipoprotein （LDL） and very lowdensity lipoprotein（VLDL）were caculated． Results In NIDDM patients with DR，the TC，LDL，FPG，HbA 1C and duration of NIDDM were higher or longer than those in NIDDM patients without DR．Moreover，the TC，LDL，FPG、FINS、HbA 1C and dutation of NIDDM were increased or lengthened in NIDDM patients with proliferative DR as compared with those with backgroud DR．The correlation analysis showed the severity of DR was positively correlated with TC，LDL，HbA 1C and duration of NIDDM． Conclusion Dyslipidemia may play some role in the onset and development of DR． (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1998,14:21-23)
In recent years, the incidence of hyperlipidemia acute pancreatitis (HLAP) has been increasing year by year, but its pathogenesis has not been completely clear. There are many clinical treatment methods for HLAP, such as lipid-lowering drugs, low molecular weight heparin, insulin, and plasma exchange. Actively reducing serum triglyceride is the core of treatment. Plasma exchange can quickly and effectively reduce the level of triglyceride, and its application in the treatment of HLAP is gradually increasing. This article reviews the recent advances in the pathogenesis, clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of HLAP, focusing on the mechanism, indications, timing, and disadvantages of plasma exchange therapy for HLAP.
ObjectTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of the combination therapy of atorvastatin and JiangZhi Decoction (ZJD) for primary hyperlipidemia (Tan Zhuo Zu E Zheng) and to analyze the interactions of drugs in hypolipidemic effect. MethodsA 2*2 factorial design, single-blind, stratified randomized controlled trial according to the level of lipid was conducted. Primary hyperlipidemia (Tan Zhuo Zu E Zheng) patients met the inclusion criteria were divided into 5 groups:ATV 10 mg group (group A), ATV 20 mg group (group B), ATV 10 mg+JZD group (group C), ATV 20 mg+JZD group (group D), JZD group (group E). After two weeks treatment, the efficacy and safety among the 5 groups were compared. ResultsA total of 92 patients were included, of which, 20 were in group A, 25 in group B, 21 in group C, 17 in group D, and 9 in group E. The results showed that:(1) There was no significant difference between group C and group B in the reduction of serum total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (PTC=0.226, PLDL-C=0.818). (2) The results of 2*2 factorial analysis showed that, there was no significant interaction between TCM factor and western medicine factor (PTC=0.605, PLDL-C=0.843). (3) There were no significant differences in safety outcomes among 5 groups (all P values >0.05). ConclusionATV 10 mg+JZD and ATV 20 mg have a similar efficacy in reducing TC and LDL-C. There is no obvious interaction between JZD and ATV in hypolipidemic effect, and the combination therapy of ATV and JZD is safe.
