The potential mechanism and clinical application value of remote ischemic conditioning in stroke

Some studies have confirmed the neuroprotective effect of remote ischemic conditioning against stroke. Although numerous animal researches have shown that the neuroprotective effect of remote ischemic conditioning may be related to neuroinflammation, cellular immunity, apoptosis, and autophagy, the exact underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. This review summarizes the current status of different types of remote ischemic conditioning methods in animal and clinical studies and analyzes their commonalities and differences in neuroprotective mechanisms and signaling pathways. Remote ischemic conditioning has emerged as a potential therapeutic approach for improving stroke-induced brain injury owing to its simplicity, non-invasiveness, safety, and patient tolerability. Different forms of remote ischemic conditioning exhibit distinct intervention patterns, timing, and application range. Mechanistically, remote ischemic conditioning can exert neuroprotective effects by activating the Notch1/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt signaling pathway, improving cerebral perfusion, suppressing neuroinflammation, inhibiting cell apoptosis, activating autophagy, and promoting neural regeneration. While remote ischemic conditioning has shown potential in improving stroke outcomes, its full clinical translation has not yet been achieved.

Application of Heuristic Method to the Clinical Teaching of Internal Medicine

There is an old saying,“Give a man a fish,and he will eat for a day.Teach a man to fish,and he will eat for the rest of his life.”In clinical teaching,students should not only be taught about diseases,but their intelligence should also be cultivated,along with their analytical,comprehension,and independent learning skills.The ability to solve problems enables students to think independently and acquire knowledge.This is known as the heuristic method of teaching.In this study,we mainly analyze the application value of the heuristic method in the clinical teaching of internal medicine.
