1.Corticospinal Tract after Spinal Cord Injury (review)
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2013;19(4):349-353
Spinal cord injury causes motor dysfunction below the level of damage plane, that due to the interruption of descending tracts passing movement instruction from the brain to the spinal cord. The main tract is the corticospinal tract which dominate the extremity motor function. The regeneration of the corticospinal tract or functional remodeling after spinal cord injury is anatomical pathology basis of promoting recovery of extremity motor function. This article discussed the anatomical knowledge of the corticospinal tract and previous classic methods of promoting corticospinal tract axon regeneration and repair and the latest research progress, in order to help the clinical treatment.

To investigate the effects of brachial plexus block(BPB) and satellite ganglion block(SGB) on the blood flow of upper limb, 22 patients were randomly divided into two groups,and given BPB(group A,n=11) or SGB(group B,n=11) with 1% lidocaine 10 ml every other day for 5 times. Ulnar-radial artery blood flow was measured by using a TCD 30 minutes before and after the block. Finger pulse amplitude was measured by pulse oximeter 5,10,15,20,30 minutes after the block.The average increase in ulnar-radial artery blood flow was 13 cm/s in group A and 5 cm/s in group B. Finger pulse amplitude increased by (9.04±2.12)mm in group A and(3.54±1.42)mm in group B.A significant difference was observed between the two groups (P<0.01).It suggested that BPB could induce more increase in blood flow of the upper limb than SGB.

Objective:To explore the effect of stage target intervention on mental state, quality of life and prognosis of spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage, so as to provide reference for improving the quality of life and prognosis of patients with spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage.Methods:A total of 261 patients with spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage from June 2017 to June 2019 in Beijing Union Hospital were selected as the research subjects. Patients were divided into the observation group (131 cases) and the control group (130 cases) by the random number table method. The control group was treated with routine nursing intervention, and the observation group applied stage target intervention based on the control group. The psychological state, quality of life and prognosis of the two groups were evaluated by Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), modified Rankin Scale (mRS), Stroke Specific Quality of Life scale (SS-QOL).Results:There were no significant differences in SAS, SDS, mRS, SS-QOL before intervention between the two groups ( P >0.05) . After intervention, the scores of energy, family role, language, activity, emotion, personality, self-care ability, social role, upper limb function, work / labor and total scores of SS-QOL in the two groups were all increased ( P < 0.05), and the increase of energy, family role, language, activity, emotion, personality, self-care ability, social role, upper limb function, work / labor and total scores of SS-QOL in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). After intervention, the scores of SAS, SDS and mRS were (42.07±4.14), (43.09±4.79), (3.06±0.42) points in the observation group and (51.83±4.65), (54.82±4.92), (3.57±0.50) points in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 17.912, 19.516, 8.925, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Stage target intervention can improve the anxiety and depression of patients with spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage, improve the quality of life, and reduce the incidence of poor prognosis.
