3.Hyperprolactinemia in Female Patients with Spinal Cord Injury (review)
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2016;22(3):290-292
Some female spinal cord injured patients may present a raise of serum prolactin which is irrelevant with pregnancy, and re-sults in irregular menstruation and galactorrhea. Hyperprolactinemia may even happen in men after spinal cord injury. This kind of hyperpro-lactinemia does not relate with the level or severity of spinal cord injury, and maintains for various time. The hypersensitivity to thyrotro-pin-releasing hormone may relate to the elevatory serum prolactin and amenorrhea. In addition, there are some suspicious factors, such as chest wall injury, pituitary body contusion, enkephalins increasing, the stimulation of spinal neural pathways, stress, and so on. Bromocripti-ne has been tried for it.

Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2014;(49):8026-8030
BACKGROUND:With the development of industrial society and traffic, the incidence of spinal cord injury has gradualy increased. In addition to radiological laboratory examinations, the neurophysiological test also becomes an effective way of auxiliary examination. Due to the high accuracy and easy operating, neurophysiological test is widely used and the evoked potentials play a role in this project. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the application of somatosensory evoked potentials and motor evoked potentials in rabbits of spinal cord injury. METHODS:A computer-based online research of CNKI and PubMed databases was performed with the key words of “spinal cord injury; evoked potentials; animal models” in Chinese and English. Finaly 33 articles were included in the analysis according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The operational approach, waveform analysis, application value, influencing factor of somatosensory evoked potentials and motor evoked potentials were determined in details, the correlation between evoked potentials and prognosis assessment in animals was also detected. Somatosensory evoked potentials is a good indicator for the evaluation of dorsal funiculus of spinal cord, it is easy to operate and reflects the changes of sensory functions. Motor evoked potentials can provide sensitive diagnosis of spinal cord diseases, and they wil be used as a means to assess the spinal cord injury during rehabilitation. The combination of the two can provide a more accurate result.

Objective To study the expression of VEGF, MMP-2 and MMP-9 in benign and malignant lesions of breast and their effects on breast carcinoma's invasiveness and metastasis. Methods VEGF,MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression was detected by SP method in 20 breast fibroadenoma and 12 normal breast specimens taken from non-cancerous regions adjacent to breast cancer tissue and 38 breast carcinomas. Results The expression rate of VEGF, MMP-2 and MMP-9 in breast carcinoma was remarkably higher than those in normal breast tissue and breast fibrogdenoma (63.2% vs 25.0% and 30. 0% ,78. 95% vs 33.3% and 35.0% and 71.1% vs 41.7% and 45.0% ,respectively; P <0.05). There was a correlation between VEGF, MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression and nodal metastasis ( P <0.05). High expression of VEGF, MMP-2 and MMP-9 was correlated with pathological grade ( P < 0.05, respectively). The overexpression of VEGF was related with those of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in breast cancer( VEGF and MMP-2:rs =0.541, P <0.01 ;VEGF and M M P-9: rs = 0.11, P < 0.01; MMP-2and M MP-9: rs= 0P < 0.01 ). Conclusion VEGF,MMP-2 and MMP-9 overexpression is strongly related to the invasiveness and metastasis of breast carcinoma, which might be valuable in evaluating tumor invasion and metastasis.
