BACKGROUND: Osteoporosis has been one of the main reasons for old people' s in decline living standard and shortening of lifespan. The onset of osteoporosis is related to the loss of functional coupling in osteoblast and osteoclast. So observation of the regulative effect of medicines on osteoblast is a good method to evaluate their preventive and therapeutical efficacy in osteoporosis.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of genistein on osteoblast culture in vitro.DESIGN: A randomined, controlled and single-blind study based on rat osteoblasts.SETTING: Department of laboratory in amunicipal hospital.MATERIALS: The experiment was completed in the Room of Isotope, Department of Nuclear Medicine, China-Japan Friendship Hospital of Beijing from February to December 2001. Ten SD rats of 24 hours old were provided from Beijing Weitong Lihua Experimental Animal Ltd. Co. (license:SCXK11-00-0008 ). The laboratory was SPF grade.METHODS: Skull osteoblasts of rats were selected to culture in vitro. Microculture tetrozolium, p-nitrophenyl phosphate, atomic absorptiometry and alizarin red were used to observe the effect of genistein on proliferation,activity of alkaline phosphatase(ALP), contents of matrix calcium and the number of mineral nodes of osteoblasts cultured in vitro.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Morphological observation, determination of proliferation ratio, ALP stain, determination of matrix calcium accumulation and number of mineralized nodes with alizarin red stain.RESULTS: It was found that genistein stimulated the proliferation of osteoblasts, improved the ALP activity, and increased the contents of matrix calcium and the number of mineral nodes in cultured osteoblasts.CONCLUSION: Genistein has the effects on stimulating the proliferation,differentiation, maturation and mineralization of osteoblasts cultured in vitro.

Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2010;16(4):370-371
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) for motor function of upper extremity after stroke.Methods28 stroke patients with upper-limb hemiparesis were divided into two groups, 14 cases in each group. The observation group received constraint-induced movement therapy, treated with intensive shaping training with constraint of the unaffected arms. While the control group received routine rehabilitation with no constraint of the unaffected arms. The effect was evaluated by The Fugl-Meyer Asseseement(FMA).ResultsThe scores of FMA is higher after than before treatment in the observation group, (P<0-05). The flexibility of upper extremity of the observation group improved more significantly than that of the control group after treatment (P<0-05).ConclusionCIMT can enhance the effect of rehabilitation in the function of upper extremity and the activities of daily living of hemiplegia patients.

Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2010;16(4):372-373
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of motor relearning programme(MRP) training on lower Limbs function of stroke patients.MethodsSixty patients were randomly and equally allocated to training group (30 patients) and control group (30 patients). The control group was prescribed Bobath therapy while the training group received the MRP training. The lower limbs function was then assessed by the Fugl-Meyer Assessment Scale.ResultsLower limbs function improved significantly in both groups while the training group was better than the control group after three months(P<0-05). ConclusionMRP training can promote the recovery of lower limbs function of patients with stroke.
