The Century Legend of Aspirin (4)

Before the above < < aspirin sword has double edges > > Old trees and new flowers When Felix Hoffman synthesized aspirin in those days, he never imagined that people had discovered so many effects of aspirin today. In addition to the aforementioned anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and analgesic effects, and prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, scientists have recently turned their attention to the anti-cancer research of aspirin. Previous readers have learned that aspirin inhibits the synthesis of prostaglandins, Prostaglandins are converted from arachidonic acid under the catalysis of cyclooxygenases (Cox-1 and Cox-2). Aspirin inhibits the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenases to exert its many effects. Inhibitors of Cox-2 can promote tumor apoptosis. Reduce mitosis and angiogenesis of tumor cells, Read More …

The Century Legend of Aspirin (1)

[If I are going to be on a desert island and choose to carry some medicine with me, then she may be the first thing to think about-aspirin)] -Professor John A. Baron, Dartmouth School of Medicine Doubts about one’s life experience In other words, the current rapid upgrading of drugs, It has almost reached a dazzling level. Even some doctors are likely not to know the latest development of some drugs in their relevant specialties.

The Century Legend of Aspirin (3)

Before the above < < Aspirin is a thoughtful [good] drug > > The sword has two edges While people marvel at the various effects of aspirin, it should also be noted that many researchers have said: [But it is a double-edged sword.] As we already know, Aspirin plays an antipyretic and analgesic role because it can inhibit the production of prostaglandins. Her role in protecting the heart is also related to this. Because certain types of prostaglandins can bond particles in the blood to each other, Thrombosis occurs. If this thrombosis occurs in the heart, then myocardial infarction will occur. Aspirin can reduce the chance of thrombosis by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, thus playing its corresponding protective role. Read More …

Is Aspirin Reliable to Prevent Cancer?

Last year, I wrote an article on cancer prevention, which received great response. There are also many criticisms, Especially on aspirin, Because some negative research results have been published in the past year, Some people who are shooting behind the scenes are not very idle. To be on the safe side, I took this in the manuscript, Some people request reprinting is also so ordered. In private, people often ask, Whether there has been a change of opinion about aspirin, I have not given a public reply. Because I know there will definitely be positive research results. Indeed, it did. But this time I am not proud. I am Zhuge Liang again. Instead, I discussed it privately with some professionals. Read More …

Aspirin, it’s okay. Don’t eat it indiscriminately.

A few days ago, a patient called me and said that he suffered from myocardial infarction and had been taking aspirin. Before that, he had a sudden massive hemorrhage in the upper digestive tract and was sent to the emergency department. According to him, the amount of hemorrhage was very large at that time, and he was already hypotensive and unconscious. Fortunately, the rescue was timely. This phone call made me a little depressed. Over the past few years, I have treated many patients with coronary heart disease. During taking aspirin, gastrointestinal bleeding is not rare. Many people know aspirin, but they don’t really know it. In the early treatment stage of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, aspirin is the basic Read More …
