Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2012;18(8):713-716
Aphasia, as one of the common complications of cerebrovascular diseases, showed the rising trend year by year with the increasing of cerebrovascular diseases incidence, and communication difficulties and psychological barriers caused by aphasia had seriously affected the patients' quality of life. Blood oxygen level dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD-fMRI) made the brain morphology and function combined perfectly, had became the most widely available functional neuroimaging modality to explore the neuroplastic mechanisms responsible for recovery of language. This review made a summary about the neuroplastic mechanisms responsible for recovery of language

ObjectiveTo compare the therapeutic efficacy of acupuncture plus medication versus using Chinese medication or acupuncture alone in treating perimenopausal syndrome.MethodNinety patients with perimenopausal syndrome were randomized into 3 groups, 30 in each group, to respectively receive acupuncture plus Chinese medication, Chinese medication alone, and acupuncture alone, totally for 3 months. Modified Kupperman index was adopted to evaluate therapeutic efficacy.ResultAfter intervention, the Kupperman scores decreased significantly in all three groups (P<0.01). The Kupperman score of the acupuncture-medication group was markedly superior to that ofthe medication group and acupuncture group (P<0.05).Conclusion Combination of acupuncture and medication can significantly improve the symptoms of perimenopausal syndrome, and is valuablein clinic.

Objective To compare the hemostatic efficacies of radial artery balloon and spinning hemostat in elderly patients after radial artery intervention.Methods Eighty elderly patients undergoing transradial coronary intervention were randomly divided into balloon and spinning hemostat groups,with 40 cases in each group.After operation,balloons and spinning hemostats were used for hemostasis,respectively.The two groups were compared in terms of hemostatic effect,comfort degree and incidence of complications.Results These was no difference in hemostatic effect between the two groups(P>0.05).The balloon hemostat group was better than the spinning hemostat in respect of comfort degree.The incidences of ischemia and vagal reflex in the balloon hemostat group were significantly lower than the spinning hemostat group(P<0.05).Conclusion The balloon hemostat for radial artery intervention is more suitable for elderly patients undergoing oral treatment.

Objective To acknowledge the present status of clinical use of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs(NSAIDs) in China. Methods Five hundred and seventy-five valid questionnaires were collected from 50 hospitals in different areas of China including Shanghai, Beijing, Tianjin, Shenyang and Guangzhou. Results 54.7% of doctors used cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) selective inhibitors. The ratio of the doctors prescribing loxoprofen, diclofenac, meloxicam were 22.6%, 23.3%, 14.60%, respectively. The ratio of the doctors who prescribe uncoated routine-dose aspirin, uncoated low-dose aspirin, enteric-coated routine-dose aspirin, enteric-coated low-dose aspirin and others were 17.0%, 14.7%, 36.8%, 28.5% and 3.0%, respectively. The ratio of doctors who only "some-times" prescribed co-medicine to prevent gastrointestinal damages when they prescribed aspirin, conventional NSAID and COX-2 selective inhibitors were 41.10%, 40.70% and 45.1%, respectively, while the most commomly used co-medicine were H2 receptor antagonist (H2 RA) and proton pump inhibitor respectively. 37.1% of doctors examined H. pylori infection status, and 76.3% of doctors would eradicate H. pylori if positive. Conclusions The most commonly used conventional NSAID is diclofe-nac. The most commonly used formulation of aspirin is enteric-coated aspirin. Most doctors only "sometimes" prescribe co-medicine together with aspirin, conventional NSAID and COX-2 selective inhibitors to prevent gastrointestinal damages, and the most commonly used co-medicine is acid inhibitor. Only a few doctors examine H. pylori infection prior to the administration of NSAID.

Objective To explore the ultrasonic imaging features of fetal craniocerebrum, and improve the recognizition on the normal structure and deformity of fetal craniocerebrum. Methods Fetal cranium was measured during 12~40 weeks of gestation, including biaparietal diameter(BPD),lateral ventricular width(LVW),cerebellomedullary cistern(CM), and nuchal translucency(NT) or nuchal fold thickness(NF). Results 18 cases of abnormal craniocerebrum were identified,nine cases of which were accompanied with other abnormalities, and fourteen of which were found during 16~28 weeks of gestation. All cases were proved by subsequent labor or induced labor. Conclusion Second-trimester is the best period of prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of fetal craniocerebrum.

Objective: To report a newly designed method for treating supracondylar fracture of the humerus,and to inquire into the problems of cubitus varus deformity and joint stiff.Methods:Based on a review of anatomy,a new method which called tension band with sphenoid-shaped osteotomy through posterior approach was designed and applied for 46 cases of patients in clinic.The clinical effect was compared with effect of crossing Kirchner's wire.Results:The tension band with sphenoid-shaped osteotomy was a better method and can abide by anatomical and biomechanical principles.After follow-up for 12-36 months,curative effect was estimated as follow:30 cases were excellent,14 cases good and 2 cases poor according to Home's evaluation.Conclusions:It is a better methods in treating supracondylar fracture of the humerus following advantages including simple,reliable fixation and early mobilization etc.

Aim To investigate the effect of CD44 anti-body-A3 D8 on the expression of IL-3 Rα and down-stream PI3K/Akt in NB4 cells. Methods The ex-pression of IL-3 Rα mRNA was detected by real-time quantitative RT-PCR, the IL-3Rα protein expression and changes of PI3 K/Akt signal pathway in NB4 cells treated with A3D8 were analyzed by Western blot. An-nexin-V-FITC/PI double staining flow cytometry was u-tilized to detect the apoptotic cells. The inhibitor of PI3 K/Akt signaling LY294002 combined with A3 D8 was used to inhibit the PI3K/Akt in NB4 cells. Re-sults After treated with A3 D8 , both the transcription-al level and translational level of IL-3 Rα were remark-ably reduced, and the PI3K/Akt pathway was inhibi-ted. LY294002 improved the inhibitory and apoptotic effects of A3D8 on NB4 cells. Conclusion CD44 antibody A3 D8 can downregulate the expression of IL-3Rα and inhibit the downstream PI3K/Akt pathway.

Objective: To investigate the cytotoxicity of ICE gene transfection in Combination with Antitumor Chemicals killing Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells in vitro.Methods: The recombinant plasmid pLXSN-hICE was transferred to virus packing cell PA317 by electroporation method. And then the retrovirus containing human ICE cDNA generated by these PA317 cells were used to transfect human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2. The apoptosis of transferred cells were examined by gel electrophoresis. The influence of chemotherapeutic drug Carbo-platin to the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma cell line SMMC7721 and its derivative cells(SMMC7721-hICE,SMMC7721-antisence hICE,SMMC7721-neo)was observed by incorporation of 3H-TDR. Results: Electrophoresis of DNA displayed the apoptosis ladder of HepG2 transfected by ICE gene. The proliferation of SMMC7721-hICE was significantly suppressed in vitro induced by Carbo-alatin compared to the other three cell lines. Conclusion: ICE gene transfection could greatly increase the susceptibility of SMMC7721 cells to apoptotic cell death following chemotherapy. These findings suggest that combining ICE gene transfection with utilizing antitumor drugs would represent a novel approach for the effective treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.
