Objective To evaluate the effects of rehabilitation training according to Brtmnstrom stage on ability of daily life (ADL) and motor function of stroke patients. Methods 120 bemiplegia patients who suf-fered from stroke were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group with 60 cases in each group. Both groups received routine cerebrovascular medicine treatment and routine nursing, the observation group received rehabilitation training according to Brannstrom stage(including body position,simple kinesithera-py,daily life exercise), psychological nursing and health guidance. The motor function and ADL were as-sessed respectively by Brurmstrom assessment and Barthel index before and 4 weeks after training using rank test. Results Brurmstrom stage and ADL of the observation group were better than those of the control group after rehabilitation training. Conclusions Early rehabilitation training according to Bnmnstrom stage can obviously improve the recovery of motor function and ADL as well as life quality of stroke patients.

Objective To invest the effect of minimal inflammation on patients with maintenance hemodialysis(MHD) and the intervention effect of ftuvastatin.Methods Blood indicators such as PA,ALB and BUN,Cr,TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C,Lp(a),SF,hs-CRP,IL-6 and TNF-α were detected at the first day of the study and six months later in all patients.Patients were divided into inflammation group(CRP≥8 mg/L) and non-inflammation group(CRP<8 mg/L) according to CRP levels.Only inflammation group used fluvastatin.Two groups were observed for six months.Results The level of hs-CRP,IL-6,TNF-α,TG,Lp(a),SF in MHD patients was obviously higher than the normal control group.The level of ALB was obviously lower than the normal control group.The angiocardiopathy incidence of inflammation group was obviously higher than that of the non-inflammation.The more obvious of minimal inflammation,the more significant of lipid metabolism disturbance and malnutrition.Hs-CRP,IL-6,TG,TC,LDL-C and Lp(a) of inflammation group decreased obviously(P<0.01 or P<0.05).ALB、HDL-C increased obviously(P<0.05).Indicators of the non-inflammation had no statistical difference after therapy.Conclusions Patients with MHD generally have minimal inflammation and malnutrition.Minimal inflammation has important effect on the angiocardiopathyincidence,lipid metabolism disturbance and malnutrition.Fluvastatin not only could regulate lipid metabolism but also improve the minimal inflammation of patients with MHD.Early detection and therapy of minimal inflammation has important significance on improving prognosis of patients with MHD.
