METHODS: Two hundred and fifty-seven H pylori-infected patients were randomly assigned to standard triple therapy (group A, n = 129) or triple therapy plus ecabet sodium (group B, n = 128). Successful eradication was defined as a negative 13C-urea breath test 6-8 wk after completion of treatment. RESULTS: After completion of therapy, 194/257 patients showed negative 13C-urea breath test results. According to intention-to-treat analysis, the infection was eradicated in 93/129 (72.1%) patients in group A and 101/128 (78.9%) in group B (P = 0.204). Per-protocol analysis showed successful eradication in 93/118 (78.8%) patients from group A and 101/114 (88.6%) from group B (P = 0.044). There were no significant differences in the side effects experienced by the patients in the two treatment groups. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that the addition of ecabet sodium improves the efficacy of the standard triple therapy for H pylori.展开更多

METHODS: A total of 396 patients with 13C-urea breath test positive for H pylori were assigned into two groups: 239 patients received one-day quadruple therapy (amoxicillin 2000 mg qid; metronidazole 500 mg qid; bismuth citrate 900 mg qid and lansoprazole 60 mg once daily) and 157 patients received 7-d standard triple therapy (amoxicillin 1000 mg bid; clarithromycin 500 mg bid and lansoprazole 30 mg bid). All the patients underwent a 13C-UBT to assess the eradication of Hpylori infection six weeks after treatment. RESULTS: Two hundred and twenty-nine patients completed the one-day therapy (95.8%) and 148 patients completed the 7-d therapy (94.2%). The oneday therapy eradicated H pylori infection in 64 patients (27.95%). In contrast, 103 patients (69.59%) were Hpylori negative after the 7-d therapy (P 〈 0.01). CONCLUSION: This pilot study suggests there is no beneficial effect of the one-day therapy in treatment ofHpylori infection compared with the 7-d standard therapy.展开更多

METHODS: One hundred and sixty H pylori positive patients were randomly assigned to two groups based on the following 2 wk investigation; (1) group A or low-dose regimen received omeprazole 20 mg b.i.d, clarithromycin 250 mg b.i.d and amoxicillin 500 mg b.i.d; and (2) group B or high-dose regimen received omeprazole 20 mg b.i.d, clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d and amoxicillin 1000 mg b.i.d. During the study Hpylori status was assessed by histology and rapid urease test prior and by 13C-urea breath test 6 wk after the therapy. Standard questionnaires were administered to determine the compliance to treatment and possible adverse events of therapy. Data were subject to x^2 to compare the eradication rates in the two groups. The significant level of 95% (P ≤ 0.05) was considered statistically different. RESULTS: We found that the per-protocol eradication rate was 88% (68/77) in group A, and 89% (67/75) in group B. The intension-to-treat eradication rate was 85% (68/80) in group A and 83.75% (67180) in group B. Overall adverse events were 26% in group A and 31% in group B. The adverse events were generally mild in nature and tolerated well in both groups with a compliance of 98% in group A vs 96% in group B. CONCLUSION: The omeprazole-based low dose regimen of darithromycin and amoxicillin for two weeks in Hpylori eradication is as effective as high dose regimen in Iranian population.展开更多

METHODS: We prospectively studied 115 consecutive patients with H pylori-infected active peptic ulcers. H pylori infection was confirmed if any two of H pylori DNA, histology, and rapid urease test were positive. Patients were assigned to either an open-labeled 3-d course of oral amoxicillin 1 000 mg b.i.d., clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d., and rabeprazole 20 mg b.i.d., or 7-d course of oral amoxicillin 1 000 mg b.i.d., clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d., and rabeprazole 20 mg b.i.d. Subsequently, all patients received oral rabeprazole 20 mg once daily until the 8th wk. Three months after therapy, all patients were followed-up endoscopically for the peptic ulcer, H pylori DNA, histology, and rapid urease test. One year after therapy, H pylori infection was tested using the 13C-urea breath test. RESULTS: The ulcer healing rates 3 mo after therapy were 81.0% vs 75.4% for the 3-d and 7-d groups [intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis, P=0.47] respectively, and 90.4% vs 89.6% for the 3-d and 7-d groups [per-protocol (PP) analysis, P=0.89] respectively. The eradication rates 3 mo after therapy were 75.9% vs 73.7% for the 3-d and 7-d groups (ITT, P=0.79) respectively, and 84.6% vs 87.5% for the 3-d and 7-d groups (PP, P=0.68) respectively. One year after therapy, seventy-five patients returned to receive the 13C-urea breath test, and the eradication rates were 78.4% vs 81.6% in 3-d and 7-d groups (PP, P=0.73) respectively. CONCLUSION: Our study showed the eradication rates against H pylori infection 3 and 12 mo after triple therapy were not different between the 3-d and 7-d rabeprazole-based groups. Therefore, the 3-d rabeprazole-based triple therapy may be an alternative treatment for peptic ulcers with H pylori infection.展开更多

Over time, human ingenuity has allowed us to develop more effective treatments, but at traditionally massive monetary costs. In order to combat such costs, PerformRx came up with three ways to drive costs downward but also increase different outcomes for the Pennsylvania Medicaid population it serves. By restricting access to drugs via prior authorizations, tracking members within a DTM (drug therapy management) program, and giving members touchscreen tablet devices, there was an observed cost savings and a better ability to service members. Even though there was little impact on overall member outcomes, these initial interventions were the right steps to be innovative and create a beneficial scenario for both members and clients.展开更多

METHODS: One hundred one patients with H pylori infection were included in the study. Patients were randomised to receive triple therapy comprising of lansoprazole 30 mg,amoxycillin 1 g,clarithromycin 500 mg,all b.d. (LAC),or quadruple therapy comprising of lansoprazole 30 mg b.d.,metronidazole 500 mg t.d.s.,bismuth subcitrate 240 mg b.d.,and tetracycline chloride 500 mg q.d.s. (LMBT). Cure was defi ned as a negative 13C urea breath test 2 mo after treatment. RESULTS: Seven patients were withdrawn after randomisation. Fifty patients were assigned to LAC group and 44 to LMBT group. The intention-to-treat cure rates were 92% and 91%,whereas the per-protocol cure rates were 92% and 97%,respectively. Side effects were common,with 56% experiencingmoderate to severe symptoms in the LAC group and 59% in the LMBT group. Symptoms of vomiting,diarrhoea and black stools were significantly more common in the LMBT group. Patient compliance was 100% for triple therapy and 86% for quadruple therapy (P < 0.01). One-third of patients in both groups were still taking acid-reducing medications at six-month follow-up. CONCLUSION: One-week triple and quadruple therapies have similar intention-to-treat eradication rates. Certain side effects are more common with quadruple therapy,which can compromise patient compliance. Patient education or modifi cations to the regimen are alternative options to improve compliance of the quadruple regimen.展开更多

This study sought to evaluate the efficacy and safety of OAC plus clopidogrel with or without aspirin in a real-world setting. Methods We retrospectively analyzed data from an international, multi-center registry be- tween 2003 and 2014 (n = 15,401). Patients with ACS and receiving OAC after PCI were screened. The composite primary endpoint was 1-year all-cause death, re-infarction, or severe bleeding. Results The final analysis enrolled 642 patients including 62 patients (9.7%) with OAC and clopidogrel (dual therapy), and 580 patients (90.3%) with the combination of aspirin, OAC and clopidogrel (triple therapy). Pa- tients on triple therapy were more often female and were more likely to have comorbidities. There was no significant difference regarding the primary end point between dual therapy with triple therapy patients [17.74% vs. 17.24%; unadjusted hazard ratio (HR): 1.035; 95% confi- dence interval (CI): 0.556-1.929; adjusted HR: 1.026; 95% CI: 0.544-1.937]. However, the re-infarction rate was significantly higher in dual therapy than triple therapy patients (14.52% vs. 5.34%; unadjusted HR: 2.807; 95% CI: 1.329-5.928; adjusted HR: 2.333; 95% CI: 1.078-5.047). In addition, there was no difference between two regimes in all-cause death and severe bleeding. Conclusions In real-life patients with ACS following PCI and with an indication of OAC, triple therapy was not associated with an increased rate of adverse out- comes compared to dual therapy. Moreover, it decreased risk of re-infarction and did not increase risk of severe bleeding.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)is a Gram-negative bacterium that relies on flagellar motility to colonize the stomach,damaging the gastric mucosa through various mechanisms and leading to various digestive disorders.Accurate assessment and precise treatment are essential in initial intensive therapy.AIM To investigate the efficacy and safety of a vonoprazan(VPZ)-based triple regimen for first-line eradication of H.pylori in China.METHODS This multicenter noninferior randomized controlled trial(June 2022 to November 2023)involved 524 H.pyloripositive patients across 19 centers in Shandong,China.Participants were randomized to 14-day esomeprazole/bismuth/amoxicillin/clarithromycin(EBAC),14-day VPZ/amoxicillin/clarithromycin(VACa),or 10-day VPZ/amoxicillin/clarithromycin(VACb)-all administered twice daily.Primary outcomes(eradication rates)were assessed via intention-to-treat(ITT)and per-protocol(PP)analyses.Secondary endpoints included adverse events and adherence.Noninferiority testing andχ^(2)tests were used for statistical comparisons.RESULTS A total of 524 patients participated in this study.In ITT analysis,the eradication rates of the EBAC,VACa,and VACb groups were 72.6%(127/175),88.0%(154/175),and 83.3%(145/174),respectively(P=0.001).The difference in the eradication rate between the EBAC and VPCa groups was 15.4%[95%confidence interval(CI):7.3-23.6,P<0.001],and that between the EBAC and VACb groups was 10.8%(95%CI:2.1-19.4,P=0.018).In PP analysis,the eradication rates of the EBAC,VACa,and VACb groups were 81.4%(127/156),93.9%(154/164),and 90.6%(145/160),respectively(P=0.001).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions among the three groups,which were 36.6%,33.8%and 29.6%,respectively(P=0.50).CONCLUSION VPZ-based triple therapies demonstrate noninferiority to 14-day bismuth-containing regimens,with the 10-day regimen showing comparable efficacy and similar adverse event rates.
文摘Objective:To evaluate the efficacy rate of rebamipide combined with triple therapy in the treatment of senile peptic gastric ulcers.Methods:A cohort of 68 elderly patients diagnosed with peptic gastric ulcers was enrolled in this study between January 2022 and December 2024.Using the envelope method for randomization,the patients were divided into two equal groups:a control group administered standard triple therapy and an observation group that received the same triple therapy supplemented with rebamipide.The clinical efficacy,gastric mucosal morphology(mucosal thickness,gland density,active inflammatory cell infiltration,chronic inflammatory cell infiltration),and pepsinogen I/II were compared between the two groups.Results:The total effective rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group,with a statistically significant difference(p<0.05).After treatment,the scores of all items in both groups were significantly lower than those before treatment,and the scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(p<0.05).After treatment,the ratios in both groups were significantly higher than those before treatment,and the ratio in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group,with statistically significant differences(p<0.05).Conclusion:Rebamipide combined with triple therapy can significantly improve the treatment efficacy of senile peptic gastric ulcers,effectively improve the histological status of the gastric mucosa,and promote the recovery of gastric mucosal function,with superior efficacy compared to triple therapy alone.

文摘The global burden of Helicobacter pylori infection continues to drive the need for effective,well-tolerated,and regionally adaptable eradication regimens.Recently Han et al presented compelling results from a multicenter randomized controlled trial in China,demonstrating the non-inferiority and potential superiority of vonoprazan(VPZ)-based triple therapy over the standard 14-day bismuth quad-ruple regimen.Both the 10-day and 14-day VPZ-amoxicillin-clarithromycin regi-mens achieved eradication rates exceeding 90%per protocol,with similar or fewer adverse events,suggesting improved patient tolerability.This study reinforces the potential of VPZ to overcome the limitations of proton pump inhibitor-based regimens,particularly in populations with CYP2C19 polymorphisms and increa-sing clarithromycin resistance.These findings also lend support to shortened trea-tment durations,which could enhance adherence and reduce antimicrobial expo-sure.These data highlight an important shift in the therapeutic landscape,positio-ning VPZ as a strong candidate for first-line empirical therapies.However,broa-der implementation requires careful consideration of local resistance patterns,drug accessibility,and pharmacoeconomic implications.
文摘BACKGROUND Standard triple therapy is an effective treatment for eradicating Helicobacter pylori infection,but it is encountered with drug resistance.The stool antigen test is a cost-effective and easy-to-perform test to confirm the eradication of H.pylori,4-8 weeks post-therapy,with 86%sensitivity and 92%specificity.AIM To assess the H.pylori eradication rate of standard triple therapy and factors affecting the eradication rate.METHODS We conducted a prospective,multicenter follow-up study in Addis Ababa,Ethiopia,at selected healthcare facilities among dyspeptic patients with positive stool H.pylori antigen tests from June 1,2023 to October 30,2023 to assess the H.pylori eradication rate.After completing the standard triple therapy,the eradication was confirmed using a stool antigen test 4 weeks later.The data were analyzed using bivariate and multivariate logistic regression methods.RESULTS The H.pylori eradication rate was 85.4%.Patients with a previous diagnosis of H.pylori infection,smokers,and local alcohol consumption were associated with a lower H.pylori eradication rate,with adjusted odds ratio(AORs)of 0.159[95%confidence interval(CI):0.050-0.511],0.206(95%CI:0.052-0.822),and 0.228(95%CI:0.052-0.997),respectively.Patients with complete symptom resolution were 5.383 times more likely to achieve eradication than patients without symptom improvement,AOR=5.383,95%CI:1.74-21.089.CONCLUSION H.pylori eradication rate was lower than expected.Post-treatment testing is crucial to confirm eradication and guide further management,such as susceptibility testing.

文摘AIM: To investigate whether adding ecabet sodium to the standard triple therapy for H pylori infection improve eradication rate. METHODS: Two hundred and fifty-seven H pylori-infected patients were randomly assigned to standard triple therapy (group A, n = 129) or triple therapy plus ecabet sodium (group B, n = 128). Successful eradication was defined as a negative 13C-urea breath test 6-8 wk after completion of treatment. RESULTS: After completion of therapy, 194/257 patients showed negative 13C-urea breath test results. According to intention-to-treat analysis, the infection was eradicated in 93/129 (72.1%) patients in group A and 101/128 (78.9%) in group B (P = 0.204). Per-protocol analysis showed successful eradication in 93/118 (78.8%) patients from group A and 101/114 (88.6%) from group B (P = 0.044). There were no significant differences in the side effects experienced by the patients in the two treatment groups. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that the addition of ecabet sodium improves the efficacy of the standard triple therapy for H pylori.
文摘AIM:To compare the effectiveness of sequential therapy for Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori) infection with that of triple therapy of varying durations.METHODS:The 460 patients enrolled in this study had H.pylori-associated gastritis or a gastric or duodenal ulcer.After screening,H.pylori-infected patients were randomly assigned to receive either conventional triple therapy for 7,10 or 14 d,or a new 10-d sequential therapy.Each of the 4 treatment groups included 115 patients.The outcomes of eradication therapy were assessed 4 wk after treatment by the urea breath test and histology.RESULTS:The overall eradication rate was 81.0%,and eradication rates were 75.7% for 7-d conventional triple therapy,81.9% for 10-d conventional triple therapy,84.4% for 14-d conventional triple therapy,and 82.0% for 10-d sequential therapy.Neither intention-to-treat analysis nor per protocol analysis showed significant differences in eradication rates using sequential therapy or the standard triple therapy(P = 0.416 and P = 0.405,respectively).CONCLUSION:There are no significant differences between 10-d sequential eradication therapy for H.pylori and any duration of standard triple treatment in Korean patients.

文摘AIM: To compare the one-day quadruple therapy with a standard 7-d triple therapy for H pylori eradication in a rural population of China. METHODS: A total of 396 patients with 13C-urea breath test positive for H pylori were assigned into two groups: 239 patients received one-day quadruple therapy (amoxicillin 2000 mg qid; metronidazole 500 mg qid; bismuth citrate 900 mg qid and lansoprazole 60 mg once daily) and 157 patients received 7-d standard triple therapy (amoxicillin 1000 mg bid; clarithromycin 500 mg bid and lansoprazole 30 mg bid). All the patients underwent a 13C-UBT to assess the eradication of Hpylori infection six weeks after treatment. RESULTS: Two hundred and twenty-nine patients completed the one-day therapy (95.8%) and 148 patients completed the 7-d therapy (94.2%). The oneday therapy eradicated H pylori infection in 64 patients (27.95%). In contrast, 103 patients (69.59%) were Hpylori negative after the 7-d therapy (P 〈 0.01). CONCLUSION: This pilot study suggests there is no beneficial effect of the one-day therapy in treatment ofHpylori infection compared with the 7-d standard therapy.
文摘AIM: To investigate the efficacy and tolerability of H pylori eradication in an omeprazole-based triple therapy with high and low dose of clarithromycin and amoxicillin. METHODS: One hundred and sixty H pylori positive patients were randomly assigned to two groups based on the following 2 wk investigation; (1) group A or low-dose regimen received omeprazole 20 mg b.i.d, clarithromycin 250 mg b.i.d and amoxicillin 500 mg b.i.d; and (2) group B or high-dose regimen received omeprazole 20 mg b.i.d, clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d and amoxicillin 1000 mg b.i.d. During the study Hpylori status was assessed by histology and rapid urease test prior and by 13C-urea breath test 6 wk after the therapy. Standard questionnaires were administered to determine the compliance to treatment and possible adverse events of therapy. Data were subject to x^2 to compare the eradication rates in the two groups. The significant level of 95% (P ≤ 0.05) was considered statistically different. RESULTS: We found that the per-protocol eradication rate was 88% (68/77) in group A, and 89% (67/75) in group B. The intension-to-treat eradication rate was 85% (68/80) in group A and 83.75% (67180) in group B. Overall adverse events were 26% in group A and 31% in group B. The adverse events were generally mild in nature and tolerated well in both groups with a compliance of 98% in group A vs 96% in group B. CONCLUSION: The omeprazole-based low dose regimen of darithromycin and amoxicillin for two weeks in Hpylori eradication is as effective as high dose regimen in Iranian population.
文摘BACKGROUND Massive hemorrhagic ascites caused by endometriosis is exceedingly rare,and the treatment strategy remains controversial.Here,we report a case of endometriosis with massive hemorrhagic ascites treated with a novel triple therapy including conservative surgery,gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist,and then dienogest.CASE SUMMARY A 28-year-old nulliparous patient was admitted to Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University,and exploratory laparoscopy was performed.A total of 9500 mL of brown ascites was aspirated from the pelvic cavity,the bilateral ovaries strongly adhered to the posterior of the uterus and were fixed to the pelvic floor,and endometriotic cysts were not observed in either ovary.The pelvic and abdominal peritonea were covered with patchy red,white,and brown endometriotic lesions and defects.Partial surgical resection of endometriotic lesions on the peritoneum was performed while we simultaneously collected multiple peritoneal biopsies.The final pathological diagnosis was endometriosis coupled with hemorrhagic necrotic tissue.CONCLUSION Postoperative injection of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist was provided three times,followed by dienogest administration,and we will continue to follow up with this ongoing treatment.

文摘AIM: To investigate the long-term role of a 3-d rabeprazole-based triple therapy in patients with Helicobacter pylori (H pylori)-infected active peptic ulcers. METHODS: We prospectively studied 115 consecutive patients with H pylori-infected active peptic ulcers. H pylori infection was confirmed if any two of H pylori DNA, histology, and rapid urease test were positive. Patients were assigned to either an open-labeled 3-d course of oral amoxicillin 1 000 mg b.i.d., clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d., and rabeprazole 20 mg b.i.d., or 7-d course of oral amoxicillin 1 000 mg b.i.d., clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d., and rabeprazole 20 mg b.i.d. Subsequently, all patients received oral rabeprazole 20 mg once daily until the 8th wk. Three months after therapy, all patients were followed-up endoscopically for the peptic ulcer, H pylori DNA, histology, and rapid urease test. One year after therapy, H pylori infection was tested using the 13C-urea breath test. RESULTS: The ulcer healing rates 3 mo after therapy were 81.0% vs 75.4% for the 3-d and 7-d groups [intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis, P=0.47] respectively, and 90.4% vs 89.6% for the 3-d and 7-d groups [per-protocol (PP) analysis, P=0.89] respectively. The eradication rates 3 mo after therapy were 75.9% vs 73.7% for the 3-d and 7-d groups (ITT, P=0.79) respectively, and 84.6% vs 87.5% for the 3-d and 7-d groups (PP, P=0.68) respectively. One year after therapy, seventy-five patients returned to receive the 13C-urea breath test, and the eradication rates were 78.4% vs 81.6% in 3-d and 7-d groups (PP, P=0.73) respectively. CONCLUSION: Our study showed the eradication rates against H pylori infection 3 and 12 mo after triple therapy were not different between the 3-d and 7-d rabeprazole-based groups. Therefore, the 3-d rabeprazole-based triple therapy may be an alternative treatment for peptic ulcers with H pylori infection.
文摘One of the major infections that plague our world today, hepatitis C, has been causing liver disease in humans since early history. Over time, human ingenuity has allowed us to develop more effective treatments, but at traditionally massive monetary costs. In order to combat such costs, PerformRx came up with three ways to drive costs downward but also increase different outcomes for the Pennsylvania Medicaid population it serves. By restricting access to drugs via prior authorizations, tracking members within a DTM (drug therapy management) program, and giving members touchscreen tablet devices, there was an observed cost savings and a better ability to service members. Even though there was little impact on overall member outcomes, these initial interventions were the right steps to be innovative and create a beneficial scenario for both members and clients.

文摘AIM: To compare a lansoprazole-based triple versus quadruple therapy for Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) eradication with emphasis on side effect prof ile,patient compliance and eradication rate at a rural district general hospital in Wales,United Kingdom. METHODS: One hundred one patients with H pylori infection were included in the study. Patients were randomised to receive triple therapy comprising of lansoprazole 30 mg,amoxycillin 1 g,clarithromycin 500 mg,all b.d. (LAC),or quadruple therapy comprising of lansoprazole 30 mg b.d.,metronidazole 500 mg t.d.s.,bismuth subcitrate 240 mg b.d.,and tetracycline chloride 500 mg q.d.s. (LMBT). Cure was defi ned as a negative 13C urea breath test 2 mo after treatment. RESULTS: Seven patients were withdrawn after randomisation. Fifty patients were assigned to LAC group and 44 to LMBT group. The intention-to-treat cure rates were 92% and 91%,whereas the per-protocol cure rates were 92% and 97%,respectively. Side effects were common,with 56% experiencingmoderate to severe symptoms in the LAC group and 59% in the LMBT group. Symptoms of vomiting,diarrhoea and black stools were significantly more common in the LMBT group. Patient compliance was 100% for triple therapy and 86% for quadruple therapy (P < 0.01). One-third of patients in both groups were still taking acid-reducing medications at six-month follow-up. CONCLUSION: One-week triple and quadruple therapies have similar intention-to-treat eradication rates. Certain side effects are more common with quadruple therapy,which can compromise patient compliance. Patient education or modifi cations to the regimen are alternative options to improve compliance of the quadruple regimen.

文摘OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of this plant as adjunctive therapy on Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)eradication.METHODS:The plant capsules were prepared and their physicochemical properties were assessed.In this clinical trial,99 patients with H.pylori infection were randomized to receive Salvia mirzayanii Rech.f.&Esfand(S.mirzayanii)or placebo capsules for two weeks.All the patients in both groups received clarithromycin-based triple therapy.Both intention to treat and per protocol analyses were performed.Eradication rates,treatment side effects,and medication compliance were evaluated in both groups.RESULTS:H.pylori eradication rate of all the randomized participants was 59.59%.The eradication rate of H.pylori was significantly higher in S.mirzayanii group compared with that in the placebo group for per protocol analysis(84.62%,P=0.026)but not for intention to treat one(65.31%,P=0.252).There were no significant differences between the two groups regarding the frequencies of the medications side effects and the patients with poor compliance.CONCLUSION:The use of S.mirzayanii as adjunctive therapy to 14-day clarithromycin-based triple therapy might improve H.pylori eradication rate.
文摘Objective The optimal antithrombotic regimen for patients on oral anticoagulation (OAC) after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains debated. This study sought to evaluate the efficacy and safety of OAC plus clopidogrel with or without aspirin in a real-world setting. Methods We retrospectively analyzed data from an international, multi-center registry be- tween 2003 and 2014 (n = 15,401). Patients with ACS and receiving OAC after PCI were screened. The composite primary endpoint was 1-year all-cause death, re-infarction, or severe bleeding. Results The final analysis enrolled 642 patients including 62 patients (9.7%) with OAC and clopidogrel (dual therapy), and 580 patients (90.3%) with the combination of aspirin, OAC and clopidogrel (triple therapy). Pa- tients on triple therapy were more often female and were more likely to have comorbidities. There was no significant difference regarding the primary end point between dual therapy with triple therapy patients [17.74% vs. 17.24%; unadjusted hazard ratio (HR): 1.035; 95% confi- dence interval (CI): 0.556-1.929; adjusted HR: 1.026; 95% CI: 0.544-1.937]. However, the re-infarction rate was significantly higher in dual therapy than triple therapy patients (14.52% vs. 5.34%; unadjusted HR: 2.807; 95% CI: 1.329-5.928; adjusted HR: 2.333; 95% CI: 1.078-5.047). In addition, there was no difference between two regimes in all-cause death and severe bleeding. Conclusions In real-life patients with ACS following PCI and with an indication of OAC, triple therapy was not associated with an increased rate of adverse out- comes compared to dual therapy. Moreover, it decreased risk of re-infarction and did not increase risk of severe bleeding.

文摘Objective:To investigate the effect of Wei’s triple nine needling therapy on the N2-P2 wave of the flash visual evoked potential(FVEP)in rats of the of the transverse directional pulling model.Methods:Thirty-six Wistar rats were randomly grouped,nine were in normal control group without any treatment,and the remaining 27 were surgically modelled in the right eyes.Eighteen of these rats were randomly divided into a Wei’s triple nine needling therapy group and a model group of nine rats each after the TON model was made using the transverse quantitative retraction method.The other 9 rats were sham-operated,and only the optic nerve was exposed without retraction.On the next day of modelling,the Wei’s triple nine needling therapy group was treated with Wei’s triple nine needling therapy for 20 minutes/1 time/1 day for 14 days.The model group,sham-operated group and normal control group were not intervened.Wei's triple nine acupoints were represented as follows:1st link:"Jingming"(BL1)and"Chengqi"(ST1);2nd link:"Sizhukong"(SJ23)penetrating"Taiyang"(EX-HN5);and the third:"Fengchi"(GB 20)and"Taichong"(LV3).The FVEP of each group was observed on 1d,7d and 14d.The FVEP of each group was observed on 1d,7d and 14d.Results:Compared with the model group,the N2 wave latency and P2 wave latency were shortened in the Wei’s triple nine needling therapy on 1d(P<0.05,P<0.01);on 7d,their N2 wave latency was shortened(P<0.01)and the N2-P2 wave amplitude was increased compared with the model group(P<0.05);on 14d,their P2 wave latency was shortened(P<0.05)and the N2-P2 wave amplitude was increased.There was no statistical difference in N2 wave latency,P2 wave latency and N2-P2 wave amplitude in the sham-operated group on 1d,7d and 14d(P>0.05).The delayed N2 and P2 wave latencies in the model group did not improve from 1d to 14d(P>0.05)and the amplitude decreased throughout,showing a significant difference on 14d compared to 1d(P<0.05).In contrast,the N2 wave latency in Wei’s triple nine needling therapy group was not significantly different until 7d to 14d(P<0.05);its P2 wave latency,although significantly delayed from 1d to 7d(P<0.05),recovered on 14d and reached a level that was not statistically different from 1d and 7d(P>0.05).There was also no significant decrease in N2-P2 wave amplitude between 1d and 14d in Wei’s triple nine needling therapy group(P>0.05).Conclusion:In this experiment,the TON rat model was successfully established by the transverse quantitative retraction method,and the treatment of TON rats with Wei’s triple nine needling therapy reduced the P2 wave delay of the FVEP electrophysiological signal and increased the N2-P2 amplitude,which had a certain positive effect on the repair of optic nerve injury,probably related to its effect of improving the conduction function of the optic nerve and protecting the retinal ganglion cells that had not been degenerated and necrosed.
