Objective To investigate the effect of music therapy on anxiety and depression in patients with spinal cord injury. Methods Forty anxious and depressive patients with spinal cord injury were selected as the control group from December 2012 to October 2013, and another 40 anxious and depressive patients with spinal cord injury as the observation group from November 2013 to September 2014. Patients in the observation group were given the following metheds after admiting for 3 days besides psychological nursing; music therapy once a day, 1 hours one time for 4 weeks. The two groups were compared in terms of the scores by Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA) scores and Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) before and after treatment. Results There were insignificant differences in HAMA scores and HAMD scores between the two groups before music therapy (P>0.05), but the scores by HAMA and HAMD in the observation group were both significantly lower than those in the control group. Conclusion Music therapy can alleviate anxiety and depression of patients with spinal cord injury, and promote the functional recovery.

BACKGROUND: Through exercise and/or hypoxia to increase the body's stress level and timing of hypoxia, so as to improve the body's adaptation level to exercise and/or hypoxia. However, little was known concerning the effects of acute exercise and/or hypoxia on vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF) expression in skeletal muscles.OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of acute exercise and/or hypoxia on VEGF expression in rats' gastrocnemius muscles. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The randomized controlled animal experiment was performed at the Clinical Laboratory, People's Hospital of Jiangsu Province, between September 2005 and September 2006.MATERIALS: Totally 108 health male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups, namely, normoxia quiet, normoxia high intensity, normoxia moderate intensity, hypoxia quiet, living high-training low high intensity and living high-training low high intensity moderated intensity groups, with 12 animals in each group.METHODS: In acute normoxia exercise models, rats were performed adaptive activity at 48 hours prior to experiment. The high intensity exercise was comprised of 50 m/minx1.5 min training with 2 minutes rest. The moderate intensity exercise was 30 m/min×30 min. Hypoxia environment was produced by using low oxygen instrument to simulate hypoxia training, with hypoxia for 3 days, 22 h/d, 12.8% altitude, with 22 ℃ temperature and 55% humidity. In acute training low-living high models, rats were placed in above hypoxia environment after high intensity Or moderate intensity exercise. Four rats were sacrificed at hours 0, 2 and 4 after training, and the gastrocnemius muscles were obtained.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The expression of VEGF in rats' gastrocnemius muscles was detected by using western-blot.RESULTS: Hypoxia and acute normoxia exercise enhanced the expression of VEGF, hypoxia after exercise weakened exercise-induced VEGF expression, and the exercise with long time and common intensity induced the higher level VEGF expression. The expression of VEGF was the most at the time points of instantaneousness and 2 hour after exercise, the sorting of the recovery speed of VEGF changes from fast to slow was: hypoxia or training low-living high and normoxic exercise. CONCLUSION: The expressions of VEGF in rats' skeletal muscles induced by acute exercise and/or hypoxia belong to the effect of immediate-early, with existing intensity-threshold, which recovery speed is inversely proportional to the expression amplitude;"training low-living high" may be able to enhance the adaptation of skeletal muscles to sports.

AIM:To reveal the characteristics and patterns of mental activity in the cerebral cortex of patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and explore the pathogenetic characteristics of ADHD.METHODS: The ADHD patients were asked to record their mental activity, general health condition and obsessions before the onset of pathological symptoms by means of psychological introspective reports.RESULTS: The direct cause of attention distraction and failure of attention focus is the patients' inability to perform cognitive tasks (including perception, memory and recollection, imagination, association and thought)in a continuously ongoing manner in relaxation. The frequent stagnancy and pause during the course of recognition precipitated the patients in a stressful state, which contributed to the onset of various hyperactivities and also resulted in the acquisition of "silent verbal thinking". This is an important psychopathological phenomenon long been neglected. All theses abnormalities caused the patients much discomfort, which was naturally relieved by means of impulsive and irritable behaviors.CONCLUSION: A series of clinical symptoms of ADHD arises from the same pathogenic factor of difficulty in mental activity and inability to carry out the activities in the cerebral cortex in a relaxed manner. The difficulty in mental activity is the key problem of ADHD and the source of various synptoms, which should be ;reated for the first place. The cause of this key problem is possibly lowered metabolism of the cerebral cortex, and the effect of "instinct" can not be neglected in the attempt to explain the pathogenesis of ADHD.

The discovery of high performance leading antidiabetic compounds containing sulfonamide and 4-aminophenylacetic acid moieties is reported. This was achieved by the synthesis of 6 intermediates and subsequently 20 target molecules using 4-aminophenylacetic acid as the starting materials, and through a few synthetic routes aided by multi-step reactions including sulfonylation of amino group, deacylation of amides and esterification of carboxyl group, as well as acylation of amino group. The chemical structures of the twenty-four new compounds were determined using 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HR-MS techniques. Screening in vitro of their peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) activation activities showed weak relative PPAR activation activities to most of the target molecules. However, 4 target molecules exhibit PPAR over 58%, and as high as 81.79% for TM2-i, presenting itself as potent leading compound for antidiabetic drugs. This research also confirms that it is probable to achieve esterification of carboxyl group and deacylation of fatty acid N-phenyl amides concurrently in SOCl2/alcohol solvent system. This provides new synthetic method for the selective reaction within molecules containing both carboxyl and N-aryl amido groups of fatty acids.
