All patients were assessed by the clinical neural function-defect assessment, concise Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA) and modified Barthel index (MBI).ResultsThe scores of the clinical neural function-defect assessment set, FMA, and MBI of two groups were not different before treatment (P>0.05), while there was a significant improvement after treatment (P<0.01), and scores of the rehabilitation group was significantly higher than that of the control group.ConclusionComprehensive rehabilitation therapy can facilitate the function recovery, and gain a good functional prognosis to the stroke patients.

OBJECTIVETo observe the long-term therapeutic efficacy of standardized specific subcutaneous immunotherapy on persistent allergic rhinitis in children. METHODSFrom Jan. 2007 to Aug. 2009, 236 children with persistent allergic rhinitis were divided into two groups, which 120 cases underwent standardized house dust mite allergen subcutaneous specific immunotherapy (SCIT), another 116 cases accepted a serious of steroids nasal spray and oral antihistamine (control group). The efficacy of the patients was evaluated by using the visual analog scale (VAS) and Rhino conjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire (RQLQ).RESULTSAfter patients underwent 3-years SCIT, the VAS score was 2.3±0.7, 2.4±0.6, 1.6±0.4, 1.9±0.5, and the RQLQ score was 7.7±1.6, 7.4±1.1, 4.3±0.7, 4.1±0.9, respectively, at the follow-up period of 3 month, 1 year, 3 years and 5 years, and both scores were significantly lower than the score of pre-treatment (P<0.001). Compared the single dust mite allergen positive patients with multiple allergens positive patients, both VAS and RQLQ scores were not significantly changed at each follow-up period after SCIT (P>0.05). No serious adverse events occurred in all treatments.CONCLUSIONThe standardized specific immunotherapy has the long-term efficacy for dust mite positive children with persistent allergic rhinitis. It demonstrated a similar effect in both single dust mite positive patients and multiple allergens positive patients.

Objective To explore the effect of comprehensive management of cardiac rehabilitation on the quality of life of patients after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). Methods A total of 60 patients with PCI were randomly divided into the rehabilitation group and the control group with 30 cases each by convenience sampling method. The control group received routine treatment and nursing care of postoperative PCI, and the rehabilitation group received cardiac rehabilitation management on the basis of the control group, including training guidance, management of double heart psychological intervention, nutritional intervention diet guidance, evidence-based medicine, and set up system etc. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale(HADS) score, 6 minutes walking distance (6MWD), coronary heart disease risk factors and Seattle Angina Score (SAQ score) were observed at 6 months after PCI. Results HADS score anxiety rate, depression rate, anxiety and depressive state at 6 months after PCI was 10.0%(3/30), 10.0%(3/30), 0 respectively in the rehabilitation group, and 33.3%(10/30), 36.7%(11/30), 13.3%(4/30) in the control group respectively, and there was significant difference between 2 groups (χ2=4.504, 5.963, 1.071. all P<0.05). 6MWD was (451 ± 48) m in the rehabilitation group and (402 ± 42) m in the control group, and there was significant difference between 2 groups (t=6.155, P=0.022). Compared two groups of coronary heart disease risk factors control level: there was significant difference in total cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, glycosylated hemoglobin, body mass index, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure(t=-2.927-5.981, P<0.01 or 0.05). SAQ score in physical limitation, angina stability , angina pectoris, treatment satisfaction, disease awareness scores were (73.79 ± 6.04), (80.35 ± 7.63), (75.31 ± 8.11), (80.23 ± 5.44), (76.59 ± 14.29) points in the rehabilitation group, and (53.19 ± 5.13), (65.87 ± 18.85), (64.41 ± 6.31), (70.49 ± 8.01), (45.83 ± 8.65) points in the control group, there were significant differences between 2 groups (t=-21.630-18.959, all P<0.01). Conclusions The comprehensive management of cardiac rehabilitation alleviates the anxiety and depression of patients after PCI, reduces the risk factors of coronary heart disease, and improves the exercise ability and quality of life.

Epidemics of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) have mainly been caused by Coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16) and Enterovirus A 71 (EV-A71), which circulated alternatively or together in the affected area. CVA16 has caused numerous outbreaks and epidemics in multiple countries and geographical regions, and has become an important public health problem. Based on an analysis of the complete VP1 coding region, all CVA16 strains can be divided into genotypes A, B1, and B2. Furthermore, genotype B1 can be divided into subgenotypes B1a, B1b, and B1c. After 2000, no reports of genotype B2 virus strains have been reported. All of the CVA16 strains reported in mainland China have belonged to subgenotypes B1a and B1b. Most CVA16-associated infections cause only mild symptoms; however, some CVA16 infections can lead to severe complications and even death. Vaccination is considered to be the most effective method to control the transmission and infection rate of this virus. A number of research groups are studying various vaccine types, including inactivated vaccines, genetic engineering vaccines, and DNA vaccines, amongst others. In this review, an overview is provided of the research advances in molecular epidemiology and vaccines of CVA16.
