Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2015;21(6):717-722
Objective To discuss the application of Chinese version of Stanford Acute Stress Reaction Questionnaire (SASRQ) in trau-matic fracture patients. Methods 96 patients with traumatic fracture in the Second Hospital of Tangshan City were recruited in the early stage. All the subjects were assessed with SASRQ in 2 weeks after trauma for the first time, and then they were assessed with SASRQ for the second time after an interval of 2 days. 496 patients with traumatic fracture completed SASRQ and Abbreviated Injury Scale-Injury Se-verity Score (AIS-ISS) assessment. Results The Cronbach's alpha was 0.930 in SASRQ, and were 0.729~0.812 in each dimension (P<0.01). Test-retest reliability at 2-day intervals was 0.980 (P<0.01). 133 cases (26.8%) were detected with acute stress disorder (ASD). According to a single entry≥3 as a positive screening, 31.7%suffered separation symptoms, 49.6%suffered re-experience traumatic symptoms, 39.5%suffered avoidance symptoms, 75.6%suffered symptoms of anxiety or increased awareness. The scores of SASRQ (t=37.807, P<0.05) and each dimension (t=36.503, 29.019, 31.111, 19.369, respectively, P<0.001) was significantly higher in the ASD positive group than in the neg-ative group. There was significantly difference in the score of SASRQ and each dimension in different age groups (F=112.319, 94.109, 95.099, 103.291, 61.497, respectively, P<0.001), the acute stress symptoms were lighter in the older group than in the other groups. There was significantly difference in the score of SASRQ and each dimension between men and women (t=7.707,-6.190,-8.944,-7.221,-9.949, respectively, P<0.001), the acute stress symptoms were lighter in men than women. There was sig-nificantly difference in the score of SASRQ and each dimension in different trauma types (F=68.516, 44.464, 59.725, 48.966, 54.827, P<0.001), the acute stress symptoms were severer in the traffic accident patients group than in the other groups. There was significantly differ-ence in the score of SASRQ and each dimension in different trauma degrees (F=63.584, 69.704, 51.569, 43.669, 33.911, respectively, P<0.001), the acute stress symptoms were lighter in the lighter group than in the other groups. Conclusion There is a high incidence and clear gender and age differences of ASD in patients with traumatic fracture.

Objective To investigate the effect of Tomatis audio training on executive dysfunction in patients with stroke. Methods A total of 80 stroke patients from the Rehabilitation Branch,Tangshan Worker′s Hospital were enrolled prospectively. They were divided into either a music group or a control group (n = 40 in each group)according to random number table. On the basis of conventional rehabilitation training,both groups received music training. The patients of the control group received conventional music training (conventional frequency music without audio processing);the patients of the music group received Tomatis audio training. Both groups were trained at the same time,once a day for 60 -90 min,and they were trained for 2 cycles. The first cycle was 14 days and the second one was 10 days,the interval of the 2 cycles was 30 days (a total of 54 days). The Behavioral Assessment of Dys-executive Syndrome (BADS)was used to assess their executive dysfunction before and after music training. Results The 6 sub-projects of BADS in the music group after music training:the rule shift cards test,action program test,key seek test, temporal judgment test,zoo map test,modified six elements test,and total standard score (median 75 ])2. 0 (1. 2,2. 7),2. 0 (1. 0,2. 0),2. 0 (1. 0,2. 0),2. 0 (1. 0,2. 0),2. 0 (2. 0,2. 0),2. 0 (2. 0,3. 0),and 11. 0 (11. 0,12. 0),respectively). They were compared with those of the control group (1. 0[1. 0,2. 0],1. 0[1. 0,2. 0],1. 0[1. 0,2. 0],1. 0[1. 0,2. 0],1. 0[1. 0,2. 0],1. 0[1. 0,1. 0],and 8. 0[8. 0,10. 0],respectively]. There were significant differences between the 2 groups (all P < 0. 05). Conclusion Tomatis audio training may effectively improve the executive function in patients with stroke.

Objective To translate the English version of Comprehensive Frailty Assessment Instrument (CFAI) into Chinese and evalu-ate its reliability and validity. Methods CFAI was translated into Chinese with the Brislin's translation mode. From May to July, 2015, 200 community aged people in Shijiazhuang, China were assessed with the Chinese version of CFAI and World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF), and 30 of them were assessed with CFAI again after a week. The content validity was rated by six experts of gereology. The total scores of CFAI and WHOQOL-BREF were analyzed with Pearson's correlation, as well as the scores of CFAI test and retest. The CFAI were analyzed with Factor Analysis. The Cronbach's α was tested. Results There were 23 items in 4 dimensions. The content validity index was 0.782. Six factors were extracted by Factor Analysis and the cumulated variance was 64.05%. The total score of CFAI correlated with the score of WHOQOL-BREF (r=-0.764, P<0.001). The Cronbach's α was 0.704~0.897 in dimensions (P<0.001), and the r= 0.604~0.941 (P<0.001) between test and retest. Conclusion The Chinese version of CFAI is reliable and valid, that can be applied to evaluate frailty in community aged people.

Objective To explore the effects of hypoxic post-conditioning on cognitive function and the expression of silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) in hippocampal CA1 of rats with cerebral ischemia. Methods Sixty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, model group and treatment group with 20 cases in each group. Each group was divided into one day, two days, three days, seven days subgroups according to the time of ischemia reperfusion. Global cerebral ischemia reperfusion was induced with modified Pulsinelli′4-vessel occlusion. The treatment group received 8%oxygen for two hours after ischemia. The cognitive function was assessed with Morris water maze test. Morphological changes of the hippocampal CA1 region were observed by HE staining. The expression of SIRT1 in the hippocampal CA1 region was detected with immunohistochemical assay and Western blotting. Results Compared with the model group, the escape latency significantly shortened (P<0.05), the number of times crossing the platform increased (P<0.05), the speed and the percentage of time spent in the platform quadrant increased (P<0.05), and the total distance decreased (P<0.05);the expression of SIRT1 in hippocampal CA1 increased (P<0.05) and the number of normal neurons increased (P<0.05) in the treatment group. Conclusion Hypoxic post-conditioning can improve the cognitive function of rats with global cerebral ischemia, which may relate with up-regulating SIRT1 in hippocampus.
