Objective To observe the preventive effects of electroacupuncture therapy on glenohumeral subluxation(GHS)in patients of cerebral stroke of super-early period. Methods A total of 160 cases with cerebral stroke were randomly recruited into a control group of 80 cases and a treatment group of 80 cases. The control group was treated with conventional medicine and rehabilitation training, while the treatment group was given electro-acupuncture therapy based on conventional medicine and rehabilitation training. All treatments were performed once in each day, and one treatment course lasted for ten days. The preventive effect was evaluated after the successive three courses. Results 4 cases in treatment group and 2 cases in control group quitted in therapeutic process. The GHS incidence rate in the third course of treatment group was significantly lower than control group (P<0.05). The severe GHS incidence rate of treatment group was significantly lower than control group in the second course (P<0.05)and the third course (P<0.01). The GHS scale of the treatment group showed no significant difference in all three courses (P>0.05), while the control group showed significant difference in one course of all three(P<0.05). Conclusion Electro-acupuncture therapy can significantly decrease GHS incidence rate, relieve pathogenetic condition, control its progress, and so thus prevent GHS of stroke patients in super-early period.

AIM:To study the epigenetic mechanisms involved in the evolution of prostate cancer from an an-drogen-dependent state to an androgen-independent state , and the global difference of histone H 3 methylation between an-drogen-dependent and -independent prostate cancer cells .METHODS:The methylation sites and patterns of histone H 3 in androgen-dependent prostate cancer cell line LNCaP and androgen-independent prostate cancer cell line DU 145 were ana-lyzed by heavy methyl stable isotope labeling with amino acids in cell culture ( SILAC) coupled with 2D LC-MS/MS.West-ern blotting was used to verify the results from MS .The differential expression of related methylases and demethylases was tested by real-time PCR.RESULTS:Five methylation sites on histone H3 were found in both cell lines, the patterns of which were as follows: H3K14me2, H3R17me1, H3K36me1, H3K36me2, H3K36me3, H3R72me2, H3K79me1 and H3K79me2.There were 2 different peptides both containing methylated H 3K36,“KSAPATGGVKKPHR” and“KSAPSTG-GVKKPHR”, which were different from the 31th amino acid residue “A” and “S”.The former peptide belonging to his-tone H3 variants, H31T, H31 and H32, was mainly identified in DU145 cells, the total peptide counts of which were much more than that of the latter peptide belonging to histone H 3 variant H31T, suggesting that these 2 cell lines expressed differ-ent histone H3 variants.Mono-and dimethylation of H3K36 were not different between these 2 cell lines, but the trimethyl-ation was significantly higher in DU 145 cells than that in LNCaP cells .Many H3K36 demethyltransferases were decreased in DU145 cells compared with LNCaP cells .CONCLUSION: The differential expression of histone H 3 variants and H3K36 demethyltransferases may result in up-regulation of H3K36 tri-methylation during the evolution of prostate cancer from an androgen-dependent state to an androgen-independent state .

Objective To propose a technique and treatment of percutaneous polymethyl methacrylate(PMMA) cementoplasty for painful metastatic lesions of the pelvis, humerus, and tibia. Methods Percutaneous PMMA cementoplasty was performed in 24 cases, including the lesions of S1 in 9 cases, acetabulum in 7 cases, ischium in 5 cases, humerus in 2 cases, and tibia in 1 case. There were 26 local lesions. The puncture approach was performed under fluoroscopic guidance. The S1 vertebral body puncture was performed with lateral transsacroiliac joint approach. The needle progression was controlled in the anteroposterior projection with a needle course above the level of the S1 foramen. With the needle adjacent to the S1 vertebral body edge, the needle tip should center just in front of the spinal canal in the lateral fluoroscopic projection. The acetabular roof puncture was performed with lateral approach. The needle progression was controlled in the anteroposterior and lateral projections alternately with a needle course parallel to the body axial plane. The puncture needle arrived directly at the lesions. The puncture to the ischium was from ischium tubercle to the lesions. The puncture progression to the internal compartment of the acetabulum was with the trajectory of the needle from the ischium tubercle to the lesion. The puncture progression to the humerus should avoid conflicting with the radial nerve and upper extremity vessels. The needle course should be from the dorsal upper arm to the lesions. As for the lesions of the tibia, the needle was punctured from the front of tibia to the lesion. After the needle tip placement in the lesions, PMMA in paste condition was injected with the precession injector pressure device under continuous visual control with adequate filling and avoidance of important PMMA leakage. Results Partial or complete pain relief was obtained in all 24 patients (CR in 10 cases, PR in 14 cases) within 7 days after the operation. Clinical improvement was maintained in 23 patients at the follow-up of 2-7 months. One patient with lesion of humerus re-experienced severe pain in local area of PMMA injection 27 days after the operation when he got up by using the treated arm for the support of the body weight. The condition was considered as the fracture at the cement-bone interface, and the gradual pain relief was obtained in 2 days with the external fixation of plaster for limiting the motion of the treated arm, and the complete relief maintained. There was PMMA leakage in 2 cases without corresponding clinical importance. Conclusion The technique and treatment of percutaneous PMMA cementoplasty in osteolytic metastases of the pelvis and peripheral bone was safe and effective. Considering the incidence of the potential fracture, the external fixation for motion limitation should be given after PMMA injection to extremity lesions.
