“…FIB is not only the most abundant macromolecular coagulation factor in plasma but also an acute-phase protein (9). The significant increase in plasma FIB concentration in 2019-nCoV patients may be related to the acute phase reaction after 2019-nCoV infection.…”

Objective: We aimed to explore the dynamic changes in coagulation function and the effect of age on coagulation function in patients with pneumonia under admission and non-admission treatment.Methods: We included 178 confirmed adult inpatients with COVID-19 from Wuhan Union Hospital Affiliated to Huazhong University of Science and Technology (Wuhan, China). Patients were classified into common types, and all were cured and discharged after hospitalization. We recorded the time of the first clinical symptoms of the patients and performed blood coagulation tests at the time of admission and after admission. In total, eight factors (TT, FIB, INR, APTT, PT, DD, ATIII, and FDP) were analyzed. Patients were classified into four groups according to the time from the first symptom onset to hospital admission for comparative analysis. The patients who were admitted within 2 weeks of disease onset were analyzed for the dynamic changes in their blood coagulation tests. Further division into two groups, one group comprising patients admitted to the hospital within 2 weeks after the onset of disease and the other comprising patients admitted to the hospital 2 weeks after disease onset, was performed to form two groups based on whether the patient ages were over or under 55 years. Chi-square tests and T tests were used to explore the dynamic changes in coagulation function and the influence of age on the results of coagulation function tests.Results: A total of 178 inpatients, 34 of whom underwent dynamic detection, were included in this analysis. We divided these patients into four groups according to the interval between the onset of COVID-19 pneumonia and the time to admission in the hospital: the 1–7 days (group 1), 8–14 days (group 2), 15–21 days (group 3), and >21-days (group 4). Eight factors all increased within 2 weeks after onset and gradually decreased to normal 2 weeks before the patient was admitted. The changes in coagulation function of patients admitted to the hospital were similar. After being admitted to the hospital, the most significant decreases among the eight factors were between week 2 and 3. There were distinct differences among the eight factors between people older than 55 years and those younger than 55 years. In the first 2 weeks after being admitted, the levels of the eight factors in patients >55 years were significantly higher than those in patients <55 years, and after another 2 weeks of treatment, the factor levels in both age groups returned to normal.Conclusion: The eight factors all increased within 2 weeks after onset and gradually decreased to normal after 2 weeks regardless of treatment. Compared with patients younger than 55 years, patients older than 55 years have greater changes in their blood coagulation test values.

Despite half-century old, but comprehensive national and international guidance, evidence of clinical effectiveness and widespread agreement on management of risk factors along with sophisticated measures for primary and secondary prevention of major cardiovascular events, cardiovascular disease remains the dominant cause of death and disability worldwide. Life style changes at population-level (e.g., lower salt and saturated fat consumption or reduced/banned amount of industrially-produced trans fatty acids in specific products, etc.) or changes at individual level (e.g., targeting modifiable risk factors/life style changes affecting smoking/tobacco use, poor diet, high blood cholesterol, high blood pressure, insufficient physical activity, overweight/obesity) have reduced coronary heart disease mortality to variable extent in different countries (mostly so reported in Finland, Iceland and Sweden) at the beginning of the new century. Overall, however, cardiovascular mortality is estimated to increase in the next coming years until 2030 at a cost exceeding US $1044 billion. Several decades of status quo are also noted in the therapeutic spectrum of cardiovascular disease, mainly consisting of variations to LDL-C lowering agents, antihypertensives, anticoagulants, antiplatelets and fibrinolytics. Most of the therapeutic interventions are "tertiary" in nature (probably some 60%), meaning that treatment is instituted once the individual has developed a pathologic condition; "secondary prevention" may cover some 25%-30% (meant to prevent re-occurrence of the condition or occurrence of complications) while "primary prevention" is left with 10%-15% share (most commonly implying life style changes at individual level and rarely pharmacological intervention). For almost three decades, the so-called inflammatory hypothesis has been promoted as a reasonable pathogenetic theory behind initiation and growth of atherosclerotic plaque (Alexander How to cite this paper: Pater, C.

“…Its instability is mainly affected by native coronary artery lesions, and it is characterized by a progressive exacerbation of angina symptoms and prolonged duration of pain. Thrombosis is mainly caused by the rupture of atherosclerotic plaques or the erosion of the mural walls in coronary arteries [ 2 , 3 ]. The effective treatment of unstable angina can improve the survival rate and quality of life of the patients.…”

The aim of this study was to systematically review the efficacy and safety of Shuxuening injection combined with conventional Western medicine in the treatment of unstable angina. Randomized controlled trials of Shuxuening injection combined with conventional Western medicine in the treatment of unstable angina were searched by the computer system from PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, VIP, CNKI, Wanfang Database, and Chinese Biomedical Database since the establishment of the database until June 2020, according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria for the selection of literature, using Rev Man5.3 Meta-analysis Software. The 28 randomized controlled trials were included, with a total of 3,127 patients. Meta-analysis results showed that Shuxuening injection combined with conventional western medicine was effective in improving the clinical efficacy of angina pectoris (RR = 1.23, 95% CI [1.19, 1.27], P<0.00001), improvement of ECG (RR = 1.31, 95% CI [1.23, 1.40], P < 0.00001), reduction of angina pectoris attack frequency (MD = −1.28, 95% CI [−1.88, -0.67], P < 0.0001), duration of angina (MD = −3.36, 95% CI [−3.69, −3.03], P < 0.00001), nitroglycerin dosage (MD = -0.39, 95% CI [−0.65, −0.13], P = 0.003), C-reactive protein (MD = −2.72, 95% CI [−3.41, −2.03], P < 0.00001), BNP (MD = −23.33, 95% CI [−27.87, −18.79], P < 0.00001), lower triglycerides (MD = −0.72, 95% CI [−1.05, −0.38], P < 0.0001), total cholesterol (MD = −1.39, 95% CI [−1.84, −0.94], P < 0.00001), and LDL cholesterol (MD = -1.20, 95% CI [−2.12, −0.29], P = 0.01) which is better than that of control group. The effect on raising HDL cholesterol was comparable between the two groups (MD = 0.49, 95% CI [−0.06, 1.04], P = 0.08) and the incidence of adverse reactions to differences had no statistical significance (RR = 0.99, 95% CI [0.54, 1.81], P = 0.97). The Shuxuening injection combined with conventional Western medicine in the treatment of unstable angina has clear efficacy and a certain degree of safety, so it is recommended for clinical application.
