Objective To observe rehabilitation and functional prognosis of patients suffered from brain infarction of acute phase complicated by depression. Method We selected 38 cases of acute brain infarct complicated with depression disorder as depression group, 40 cases of non－ depression patient admitted at the same period were selected as non depression group.Antidepressants drugs administration and rehabilitation therapy were performed.We evaluated patients according to functional independence measure(FIM)of Chinese edition. HAMD grading comparison was carried out in depression group. Result Before treatment,two groups score nearly the same,compared with pretreatment. After treatment,patients in depression group and non depression group showed significant improvement esp non－ depression group (P<0.01).11 cases with severe depression in the depression showed no changes in FIM score before and after treatment. Conclusion Compared with non－ depression patients,functional recovery of patients with depression following brain infarction of acute stage is much slower,especially for patients with severe depression.

Objective To observe the relationship between visual-spatial perception impairment and the characteristics of asymptomatic cerebral infarction (ACI). Methods After evaluating the cognitive impairment of 112 patients with ACI using the Revised Visual Retention Test (VRT), we compared the result of VRT test among different groups grouped by number, size and location of the cerebral infarction. Results The total score of the patients with ACI with correct answers in VRT was significantly lower than that of the controls (14.5?3.2 vs 22.8?3.3, P

Objective To explore the value cerebral blood flow in prediction of motor recovery of stroke patients. Methods After evaluating the cerebral blood flow velocities of bilateral middle cerebral arteries with TCD during passive elbow movement, 68 patients with cerebral infarction were treated by rehabilitation therapy. The motor function of upper limbs was evaluated with Fugl Meyer before and after 6,12 weeks of treatment. The patients were divided into groups A and B according to the Fugl Meyer scales score of the paralytic upper limb at 12 weeks and the changes of cerebral blood velocities were compared between the two groups. Results The score of upper limb motor function were not different between group B and A before the treatment, but the score of group B was significantly higher than that of group A ( P

Objective To investigate the influence of dynamic contraction to antagonist coactivity ratios during the stroke patient's knees exercise passively initiatively and resistively.Methods 24 stroke patients as observation group and 17 normal subjects as control group had performed dynamic contractions in knee flexion and extension. The electromyography signals were collected by surface electrode and then processed by linear time-and frequency-domain method. And then the antagonistic coactivity ratio was analyzed with factors statistics.Results The antagonist coactivity ratios of MF(median frequency) and MPF(mean power frequency) in paretic side of patients got high significantly but in non-paretic side got low significantly. But the antagonistic coactivity ratios of AEMG(average EMG) in paretic side got low and in non-paretic side got high significantly (P<0.01). The antagonist coactivity ratios of MF and AEMG in activity side were lower than in non-activity side (P<0.05). The antagonist coactivity ratios of MPF in exercise passively were lower significantly. The antagonist coactivity ratios of AEMG were lower following as the work load increased (P<0.001).Conclusion The motor unites are collected excessively in antagonist from paretic side of the stroke patient. The level of the synchronization of the excitement got low. The muscle strength got weak. But both the motor unites collected and the motor unites excited in antagonist from non-paretic side are excessive. The muscle strength get strong.

Objective To observe the surface electromyogram(sEMG)characteristics of the lower limbs muscles in stroke patients and healthy subjects during the passive and active-assisted anti-resistance movements.Methods Twenty four stroke patients and 17 healthy individuals(control group) participated in this study.sEMG of rectus femoris(RF),vastus lateralis(VL),ventralis medialis(VM)and biceps femoris(BF)was recorded during passive and active-assisted anti-resistance of knee joint in both groups.Average EMG(AEMG),mean power frequency(MPF)and median frequency(MF) were analyzed.Results Multiple factor ANOVA showed that very significant differences in the values of MF,MPF and AEMG between non-paretic and the paretic limbs appeared(P

Objective To study enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods A case-control study was conducted on 56 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy in our hospital from May 2012 to December 2016.These patients were divided into two groups:25 patients received ERAS management (the ERAS group) and 31 patients traditional perioperative management (the control group).The data on postoperative pancreatic leakage,bile leakage,postoperative bleeding,delayed gastric emptying,postoperative intestinal function recovery,hospitalization stay,medical cost and readmission rate within 90 days between the two groups were compared.Results The rate of delayed gastric emptying,postoperative intestinal function recovery,hospitalization stay and medical cost were significantly better in the ERAS group than the control group (all P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in the rates of pancreatic leakage,bile leakage,postoperative bleeding,and readmission within 90 days between the two groups (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Perioperative ERAS in pancreaticoduodenectomy was safe and efficacious.It improved recovery of patients and reduced hospital stay and expenses.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of the dynamic contractions on the surface electromyography (sEMG) single of stroke patients induced from the low limb muscle when exercising passively, exercising initiatively with assistant and against resistance.Methods 24 stroke patients with hemiplegia and 17 normal subjects were tested with sEMG under a dynamic contractions in coxa and knee flexion and extension passively, initiatively with assistant and against resistance. The myoelectric signals were collected and processed by linear time and frequency domain method.Results The values of median frequency (MF) and mean power frequency (MPF) of stroke group were significantly lower, but the value of average EMG (AEMG) was higher ( P<0.001). The values of MF and MPF in activity side were lower than that in non-activity side ( P<0.001). The values of MF and MPF when exercising passively were higher than that when exercising with resistance ( P<0.05). The value of AEMG when exercising with resistance was highest. The values of MF and MPF in the synergist muscle were higher. The values of AEMG in the antagonistic muscle and synergist muscle were higher than that agonist and synergist muscle ( P<0.01). The values of MF and MPF in non-paretic exercising side were higher significantly, but in paretic exercising side and non-paretic silent side were lower. The values of MF and MPF in exercising side from vastus lateralis (VL) were the highest. The values of AEMG in exercising side and non-exercising side from biceps femoris (BF) were the highest. The values of MF and MPF in low limb of stroke group reduced, that in rectus femoris (RF) from paretic side was the lowest; that in BF from non-paretic side was the lowest ( P<0.01). The value of AEMG in low limb of stroke group was high significantly, especially in BF from the low limb of the non-paretic side in stroke patients. The values of AEMG in four group muscles gradually were higher following the higher exercising load, and that in the BF was the highest, and that in vastus medialis (VM) rose significantly.Conclusion The values of MF and MPF of stroke patients with hemiplegia reduce significantly, but the value of AEMG is higher. The values of MF and MPF in exercising side are lower than that in non-exercising side and non-paretic exercising side rising significantly, but that in paretic exercising side and non-paretic silent side reduce significantly. The values of MF and MPF in assistant exercise are higher than that in passive exercise and resistance exercise, but the value of AEMG in resistance exercise is higher than that in assistant exercise and in passive exercise. The values of MF and MPF in synergist muscle rise, but the values of AEMG in antagonist and synergist muscle are higher than that agonist and synergist muscle.

Objective To observe the influence of dynamic contractions on the sEMG co-contraction ratio taken from the antagonist muscles of the knee joint of stroke patients.Methods 11 stroke patients and 14 healthy subjects were measured the dynamic contractions in both knee flexion and extension with the surface electromyography(sEMG).Results There was no significant differences of the median frequency(MF),mean power frequency(MPF),average EMG(AEMG)and the sEMG co-contraction ratio within the stroke patients and the healthy(P>0.05).There was no significant difference of the MF between the patients compared with the healthy(P>0.05),but the sEMG co-contraction ratio of the MPF increased significantly and that of AEMG decreased significantly(P<0.01).Conclusion The MPF,AEMG and the sEMG co-contraction ratio taken from the stoke patients may reflect the characters of the low limb muscle and the MF may not.

Objective To summarize the imaging features of computed tomography (CT)and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combined with multi-technology imaging and compare its effects in the preoperative evaluation of malignant perihilar biliary obstruction.Methods The clinical data of 20 patients receiving CT and MRI who were diagnosed with malignant perihilar biliary obstruction by pathological examination at the Wuxi Second People's Hospital between January 2008 and April 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients receiving CT combined with negative-contrast CT cholangiopancreatography (nCTCP) and computed tomography angiography (CTA) were allocated into the CT group,and patients receiving MRI combined with magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) were allocated into the MRI group.The images of the 2 groups were analyzed by 2 independent reviewers.The classification of malignant perihilar biliary obstruction,hepatic artery and portal vein invasions and lymph node and organ metastases were evaluated respectively,and then the results of evaluation were compared with the results of surgery and pathological examinations.The comparison between the accuracy of imaging examination in the 2 groups and accuracy of perihilar biliary obstruction classification were analyzed by the chi-square test.The comparison of evaluating accuracy (sensitivity and specificity) among vascular invasion and lymph node and organ metastases were done by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis,and the comparison of its accuracy were done by the z-score test.Results The imagings of bile duct involvement of the 2 groups showed that there were irregular thickening bile duct wall combined with retrograde intrahepatic bile duct dilatation.The symptoms of vascular invasion included the stricture and occlusion of blood vessels or more than half of vascular contact surface with tumor.The symptoms of lymph node metastasis included the enlarging short-axis or round-like circular enhanced lesions.The symptoms of organ involvement included the unclear boundary of lesions or low-density necrotic foci within organ.All the 20 patients underwent the surgical treatment,including 13 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma and 7 patients with gallbladder carcinoma.Hepatic artery invasions were detected in 5 patients,portal vein invasions in 10 patients,lymph node metastases in 10 patients and organ metastases in 4 patients.The cases of classification of perihilar biliary obstruction,hepatic artery invasion,portal vein invasion,lymph node metastasis and organ metastasis which were evaluated respectively by reviewer 1 and 2 were 18/18,19/18,18/18,17/16 and 18/19 in the CT group and 17/16,14/13,17/16,15/14 and 19/18 in the MRI group.The imaging of the 2 groups were compared with the evaluating accuracies of classification of malignant hilar biliary obstruction,hepatic artery and portal vein invasions,lymph node and organ metastases in the 2 groups,showing no significant differences (x2=12.593,8.889,z=1.823,1.956,0.462,0.817,0.977,0.751,0.233,1.403,P＞0.05).Conclusion CT and MRI for malignant hilar biliary obstruction had the same imaging features,meanwhile,they can provide an equivalent performance in the classification of malignant hilar biliary obstruction,hepatic artery and portal vein invasions and lymph node and organ metastases.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiological characteristics, diagnosis, treat-ment and prognosis of gallbladder cancer in China from 2010 to 2017.Methods:The single disease retrospective registration cohort study was conducted. Based on the concept of the real world study, the clinicopathological data, from multicenter retrospective clinical data database of gallbladder cancer of Chinese Research Group of Gallbladder Cancer (CRGGC), of 6 159 patients with gallbladder cancer who were admitted to 42 hospitals from January 2010 to December 2017 were collected. Observation indicators: (1) case resources; (2) age and sex distribution; (3) diagnosis; (4) surgical treatment and prognosis; (5) multimodality therapy and prognosis. The follow-up data of the 42 hospitals were collected and analyzed by the CRGGC. The main outcome indicator was the overall survival time from date of operation for surgical patients or date of diagnosis for non-surgical patients to the end of outcome event or the last follow-up. Measurement data with normal distribu-tion were represented as Mean±SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) or M(range), and com-parison between groups was conducted using the U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Univariate analysis was performed using the Logistic forced regression model, and variables with P<0.1 in the univariate analysis were included for multivariate analysis. Multivariate analysis was performed using the Logistic stepwise regression model. The life table method was used to calculate survival rates and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curves. Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Case resources: of the 42 hospitals, there were 35 class A of tertiary hospitals and 7 class B of tertiary hospitals, 16 hospitals with high admission of gallbladder cancer and 26 hospitals with low admission of gallbladder cancer, respectively. Geographical distribution of the 42 hospitals: there were 9 hospitals in central China, 5 hospitals in northeast China, 22 hospitals in eastern China and 6 hospitals in western China. Geographical distribution of the 6 159 patients: there were 2 154 cases(34.973%) from central China, 705 cases(11.447%) from northeast China, 1 969 cases(31.969%) from eastern China and 1 331 cases(21.611%) from western China. The total average number of cases undergoing diagnosis and treatment in hospitals of the 6 159 patients was 18.3±4.5 per year, in which the average number of cases undergoing diagnosis and treatment in hospitals of 4 974 patients(80.760%) from hospitals with high admission of gallbladder cancer was 38.8±8.9 per year and the average number of cases undergoing diagnosis and treatment in hospitals of 1 185 patients(19.240%) from hospitals with low admission of gallbladder cancer was 5.7±1.9 per year. (2) Age and sex distribution: the age of 6 159 patients diagnosed as gallbladder cancer was 64(56,71) years, in which the age of 2 247 male patients(36.483%) diagnosed as gallbladder cancer was 64(58,71)years and the age of 3 912 female patients(63.517%) diagnosed as gallbladder cancer was 63(55,71)years. The sex ratio of female to male was 1.74:1. Of 6 159 patients, 3 886 cases(63.095%) were diagnosed as gallbladder cancer at 56 to 75 years old. There was a significant difference on age at diagnosis between male and female patients ( Z=-3.99, P<0.001). (3) Diagnosis: of 6 159 patients, 2 503 cases(40.640%) were initially diagnosed as gallbladder cancer and 3 656 cases(59.360%) were initially diagnosed as non-gallbladder cancer. There were 2 110 patients(34.259%) not undergoing surgical treatment, of which 200 cases(9.479%) were initially diagnosed as gallbladder cancer and 1 910 cases(90.521%) were initially diagnosed as non-gallbladder cancer. There were 4 049 patients(65.741%) undergoing surgical treatment, of which 2 303 cases(56.878%) were initially diagnosed as gallbladder cancer and 1 746 cases(43.122%) were initial diagnosed as non-gallbladder cancer. Of the 1 746 patients who were initially diagnosed as non-gallbladder cancer, there were 774 cases(19.116%) diagnosed as gallbladder cancer during operation and 972 cases(24.006%) diagnosed as gallbladder cancer after operation. Of 6 159 patients, there were 2 521 cases(40.932%), 2 335 cases(37.912%) and 1 114 cases(18.087%) undergoing ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination before initial diagnosis, respec-tively, and there were 3 259 cases(52.914%), 3 172 cases(51.502%) and 4 016 cases(65.205%) undergoing serum carcinoembryonic antigen, CA19-9 or CA125 examination before initially diagnosis, respectively. One patient may underwent multiple examinations. Results of univariate analysis showed that geographical distribution of hospitals (eastern China or western China), age ≥72 years, gallbladder cancer annual admission of hospitals, whether undergoing ultrasound, CT, MRI, serum carcinoembryonic antigen, CA19-9 or CA125 examination before initially diagnosis were related factors influencing initial diagnosis of gallbladder cancer patients ( odds ratio=1.45, 1.98, 0.69, 0.68, 2.43, 0.41, 1.63, 0.41, 0.39, 0.42, 95% confidence interval as 1.21-1.74, 1.64-2.40, 0.59-0.80, 0.60-0.78, 2.19-2.70, 0.37-0.45, 1.43-1.86, 0.37-0.45, 0.35-0.43, 0.38-0.47, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that geographical distribution of hospitals (eastern China or western China), sex, age ≥72 years, gallbladder cancer annual admission of hospitals and cases undergoing ultrasound, CT, serum CA19-9 examination before initially diagnosis were indepen-dent influencing factors influencing initial diagnosis of gallbladder cancer patients ( odds ratio=1.36, 1.42, 0.89, 0.67, 1.85, 1.56, 1.57, 0.39, 95% confidence interval as 1.13-1.64, 1.16-1.73, 0.79-0.99, 0.57-0.78, 1.60-2.14, 1.38-1.77, 1.38-1.79, 0.35-0.43, P<0.05). (4) Surgical treatment and prognosis. Of the 4 049 patients undergoing surgical treatment, there were 2 447 cases(60.435%) with complete pathological staging data and follow-up data. Cases with pathological staging as stage 0, stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ, stage Ⅲa, stage Ⅲb, stage Ⅳa and stage Ⅳb were 85(3.474%), 201(8.214%), 71(2.902%), 890(36.371%), 382(15.611%), 33(1.348%) and 785(32.080%), respectively. The median follow-up time and median postoperative overall survival time of the 2 447 cases were 55.75 months (95% confidence interval as 52.78-58.35) and 23.46 months (95% confidence interval as 21.23-25.71), respectively. There was a significant difference in the overall survival between cases with pathological staging as stage 0, stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ, stage Ⅲa, stage Ⅲb, stage Ⅳa and stage Ⅳb ( χ2=512.47, P<0.001). Of the 4 049 patients undergoing surgical treatment, there were 2 988 cases(73.796%) with resectable tumor, 177 cases(4.371%) with unresectable tumor and 884 cases(21.833%) with tumor unassessable for resectabi-lity. Of the 2 988 cases with resectable tumor, there were 2 036 cases(68.139%) undergoing radical resection, 504 cases(16.867%) undergoing non-radical resection and 448 cases(14.994%) with operation unassessable for curative effect. Of the 2 447 cases with complete pathological staging data and follow-up data who underwent surgical treatment, there were 53 cases(2.166%) with unresectable tumor, 300 cases(12.260%) with resectable tumor and receiving non-radical resection, 1 441 cases(58.888%) with resectable tumor and receiving radical resection, 653 cases(26.686%) with resectable tumor and receiving operation unassessable for curative effect. There were 733 cases not undergoing surgical treatment with complete pathological staging data and follow-up data. There was a significant difference in the overall survival between cases not undergoing surgical treatment, cases undergoing surgical treatment for unresectable tumor, cases undergoing non-radical resection for resectable tumor and cases undergoing radical resection for resectable tumor ( χ2=121.04, P<0.001). (5) Multimodality therapy and prognosis: of 6 159 patients, there were 541 cases(8.784%) under-going postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and advanced chemotherapy, 76 cases(1.234%) under-going radiotherapy. There were 1 170 advanced gallbladder cancer (pathological staging ≥stage Ⅲa) patients undergoing radical resection, including 126 cases(10.769%) with post-operative adjuvant chemotherapy and 1 044 cases(89.231%) without postoperative adjuvant chemo-therapy. There was no significant difference in the overall survival between cases with post-operative adjuvant chemotherapy and cases without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( χ2=0.23, P=0.629). There were 658 patients with pathological staging as stage Ⅲa who underwent radical resection, including 66 cases(10.030%) with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and 592 cases(89.970%) without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. There was no significant difference in the overall survival between cases with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and cases without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( χ2=0.05, P=0.817). There were 512 patients with pathological staging ≥stage Ⅲb who underwent radical resection, including 60 cases(11.719%) with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and 452 cases(88.281%) without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. There was no significant difference in the overall survival between cases with postoperative adjuvant chemo-therapy and cases without post-operative adjuvant chemo-therapy ( χ2=1.50, P=0.220). Conclusions:There are more women than men with gallbladder cancer in China and more than half of patients are diagnosed at the age of 56 to 75 years. Cases undergoing ultrasound, CT, serum CA19-9 examination before initial diagnosis are independent influencing factors influencing initial diagnosis of gallbladder cancer patients. Preoperative resectability evaluation can improve the therapy strategy and patient prognosis. Adjuvant chemotherapy for gallbladder cancer is not standardized and in low proportion in China.
