Objective To detected the motor cortex reorganization and compared the influence on reorganization process as regard to different transfer modes of contralateral seventh cervical nerve root (C7)in young rats model of total brachial plexus root avulsion. Methods The young Sprague-Dawley rats model of total brachial plexus root avulsion was established. The left radix dorsalis and radix ventralis from the fifth cervical nerve root (C5) to the first thoracic nerve root (T1)were exposed and the roots from C5 to T1 were avulsed from the spinal cord. Then, the contralateral C7 transfer operation was performed. Three different operative modes were applied randomly which included contralateral C7 transference to anterior division of the upper trunk (group A, n=30), to both musculocutaneous and median nerves (group B, n=30), or to median nerve (group C, n=30). The movement evocation of motor cortex was measured by intracortical microstimula-tion in both hemispheres, and functional reorganization was assessed dynamically in 1.5, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after operation. Results After contralateral C7 transference, the ipsilateral motor cortex initially acti- vated the injured limb at 1.5 month, and subsequently the motor cortex of both hemispheres activated the in-jured limb at the 3rd and 6th month. The injured limb was activated mainly by the contralateral motor cortex in group A at the 9th month. The contralateral motor cortex exclusively controlled the injured limb in all three groups at the 12th month after the operation. Meanwhile, the extent of functional reorganization was better in group B than that of group C. Conclusion After contralateral C7 transfer operation, motor cortex in charging injured limb developed a transhemispheric functional reorganization in young rats with total brachial plexus root avulsion. Different operative modes contributed to the functional reorganization of motor cortex. Transferring contralateral C7 to anterior division of the upper trunk or to both musculocutaneous and median nerves provided better functional reorganization than to median nerve.

Objective To explore the impact of systematic retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy (SL) in patients with advanced ovarian cancer. Methods The data on 188 patients with FIGO stageⅢC epithelial ovarian cancer were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients underwent primary debulking surgery and then received platinum-based chemotherapy. The patients were divided into SL group and non-systematic lymphadenectomy (USL) group. Progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) times were analyzed. Results PFS and OS were higher in SL group than in USL group (36 versus 17 months and P = 0.022; 58 versus 52 months and P = 0.041). Univariate analysis showed that both SL and optimal debulking surgery were the independent prognostic factors , but multivariate analysis indicated that optimal debulking surgery was the only independent prognostic factor. However , for 143 patients without enlarged retroperitoneal lymph nodes , multivariate analysis showed that either SL or optimal debulking surgery were the independent prognostic factor (P = 0.040 and P = 0.014). Conclusions Optimal debulking surgery is helpful in improvement of the survival in patients with advanced ovarian cancer. For patients without enlarged retroperitoneal lymph nodes, SL still has a positive effect on the prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the damaged level of auditory processing and diagnose the type of language impairment in an auditory agnosia patient using Psycholinguistic Assessment in Chinese Aphasia (PACA), and predict the outcome of the language function. Methods A patient with a bilateral damage involving the temporal lobe could physically hear the sounds, but was unable to recognize or differentiate between the sounds. Speech and language evaluations were taken with PACA 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 3 months after the onset of disease. Results At 4 weeks, the correct rates were 2.5% and 95.0% in spoken word-picture matching and written word-picture matching (P<0.001), and were 5.6% and 80.6% in spoken semantic knowledge and written semantic knowledge (P<0.001). The scores of auditory input processing function score were low, including phoneme discrimination, spoken word matching with minimal differences, environmental sounds identification. The correct rates were 67.5% in oral picture naming, 0 in word repetition, 70.0% in word reading, 0 in dictation, 100.0% in directly copy writing. At 8 weeks and 3 months, there was complete recovery in written word- picture matching (both 100%) and written semantic knowledge (97.2%, 100%), and improvement in oral picture naming (87.5%, 90%), word repetition (87.5%, 97.5%), picture name writing (77.5%, 87.5%) and copy writing (both 100%) (P<0.05). But no change was found in auditory input processing function examinations, spoken word-picture matching (5.0%, 7.5%), spoken semantic knowledge (2.8%, 5.6%), word repetition (0, 3.3%) and dictation (both 0). Conclusion The patient was diagnosed as auditory agnosia with the inability to distinguish sounds. PACA can well identify the impaired level of auditory comprehension disorder and the outcome of language function recovery for aphasics.
