BACKGROUND There is insufficient evidence regarding the effect of high-intensity statin therapy in older adults.This study aimed to investigate the effects of high-intensity statin treatment on the clinical outcomes in older adults with myocardial infarc-tion (MI).METHODS Consecutive patients with MI aged at least 75 years were analyzed retrospectively.The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE),defined as a composite of all-cause death,MI,rehospitalization due to un-stable angina,repeat revascularization,and ischemic stroke.The high-intensity group was compared to the low-to-moderate in-tensity group in the propensity score-matched cohort.RESULTS Average age of total 546 patients was 81 years.Among them,84% of patients underwent percutaneous coronary in-tervention.The unadjusted seven-year MACCE rate differed by statin intensity (high-intensity statin group:38%,moderate-intensity statin group:42%,low-intensity statin group:56%,and no-statin group:61%,P =0.004).However,among these groups,many baseline characteristics were significantly different.Among the 74 propensity score-matched pairs,which lacked any significant differences in all baseline characteristics,the high-intensity group had a significantly lower rate of MACCE than the low-to-moderate intensity group (37% vs.53%,P =0.047).Follow-up low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were significantly lower in the high-intensity group than that in the low-to-moderate intensity group (69.4 ± 16.0 mg/dL vs.77.9 ± 25.9 mg/dL,P=0.026).CONCLUSIONS In older adult patients with MI,the use of high-intensity statin caused significantly less occurrence of MACCE in comparison to that in low-to-moderate intensity for up to seven years of follow-up.

近年来糖尿病的发病趋向呈上升态势,在全球迅速发展,成为危害人们身体健康的重大因素.糖尿病属代谢性疾病,在其发展过程中,可引发多种并发症,其中糖尿病视网膜病变(diabetic retinopathy,DR)为微血管病变中最常见的一类,成为糖尿病患者致盲的最重要病因.因此糖尿病视网膜病变的防预和治疗是医学研究者亟待解决的问题之一.DR的发病机制尚未明确,各种治疗方法疗效各异,目前DR的临床治疗手段主要有激光治疗、药物治疗、手术治疗.在药物治疗方面,二肽基肽酶4抑制剂作为一类新型降糖药,亦可用于糖尿病视网膜病
目的 观察补中益气汤联合穴位贴敷治疗变应性鼻炎(allergic rhinitis,AR)肺脾气虚证患者临床疗效.方法 将80例AR肺脾气虚证患者随机分为中医综合治疗组和常规西药对照组,每组各40例,其中常规西药对照组予常规西药治疗,中医综合治疗组在常规西药对照组基础上予补中益气汤联合穴位贴敷治疗,两组患者均连续治疗4周.分析两组患者治疗前后中医证候积分、鼻部症状评分、肺功能指标[第1秒用力呼气容积(FEV1)、用力肺活量(FVC)、第1秒用力呼气量占用力肺活量百分率(FEV1/FVC)]、小气道功能指标
阈下抑郁是介于健康人群及抑郁症之间的一种轻微的抑郁状态,西医并未视阈下抑郁为病,而中医将阈下抑郁归于“郁证”范畴,积极采取《黄帝内经》“治未病”的思想,运用脐针这一操作简便、绿色无痛、奇用奇效的特色针法,从易医理论及脐全息理论出发,结合探究阈下抑郁与心神、脑肠轴与腹脑、脾胃系统等密切的关联性,分析阈下抑郁人群最常见证型——肝郁脾虚型的病因病机,认为其与阳气不足或郁遏、心神失养、肝脾不和、心肾不交等密切相关,并针对其发病特点,在易医脐针后天八卦图的五行生克制化理论指导下,结合易医脐针思想的理论和优势,提出脐
