Methods Sixty cases of young patients of hypertension were randomly divided into an electroacupuncture group and a western medicine group, 30 cases in each group. In the electroacupuncture group, electroacupuncture was applied at Quchi (曲池LI 11) and Taichong (太冲LR 3). In the western medicine group, Captopril was taken orally. Twenty-four hour dynamic blood pressure, and blood pressure variability and circadian rhythms were observed after treatment for 14 days in the two groups. Results Electroacupuncture at Quchi (曲池LI 11) and Taichong (太冲LR 3) significantly decreased systolic pressure and diastolic pressure at different time phases in the young patients with hypertension (all P〈0.01), with no significant difference as compared with the western medicine group (all P〉0.05); electroacupuncture at Quchi (曲池LI 11) and Taichong (太冲LR 3) significantly reduced the standard deviations of systolic pressure and diastolic pressure at different time phases in the young patients with hypertension as compared with those before the treatment (P〈0.01, P〈0.05). There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in 24 h systolic standard deviation (24 h SSD), 24 h diastolic standard deviation (24 h DSD), daytime SSD (dSSD), nighttime SSD (nSSD) and nighttime DSD (nDSD) (P〈0.01, P〈0.05); and there was significant difference between the two groups in numbers of the Dipper and the non-Dipper after treatment (P〈0.05). Conclusion Electroacupuncture at Quchi (曲池LI 11) and Taichong (太冲LR 3) has a better long-term effect of decreasing blood pressure and improves effectively changes of circadian rhythms in young patients with hypertension, which are an effective point pair for hypertension.展开更多

The Li-ion transport over electrode-electrolyte and electrolyteelectrolyte interfaces, vital for the performance of solid-state batteries, is investigated by impedance spectroscopy and solid-state NMR experiments. An all-solid-state Li-ion battery is assembled with the Li7P3S11 electrolyte, nano-Li2S cathode and Li-In foil anode, showing a relatively large initial discharge capacity of 1139.5 m Ah/g at a current density of 0.064 m A/cm^ 2 retaining 850.0 m Ah/g after 30 cycles. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy suggests that the decrease in capacity over cycling is due to the increased interfacial resistance between the electrode and the electrolyte. 1D exchange ^7Li NMR quantifies the interfacial Li-ion transport between the uncycled electrode and the electrolyte, resulting in a diffusion coefficient of 1.70(3) ×10^-14cm^2/s at 333 K and an energy barrier of 0.132 e V for the Li-ion transport between Li2S cathode and Li7P3S11 electrolyte. This indicates that the barrier for Li-ion transport over the electrode-electrolyte interface is small. However, the small diffusion coefficient for Li-ion diffusion between the Li2S and the Li7P3S11 suggests that these contact interfaces between electrode and electrolyte are relatively scarce, challenging the performance of these solid-state batteries.展开更多
