Objective To investigate the effect of high-voltage electrostatic therapy on chronic migraine. Methods 86 cases who met inclusioncriteria were randomly divided into two groups: high-voltage group (n=43) was treated with high-voltage therapeutic device for 20d. Control group (n=43) was blank control. The recovered cases were followed up for 4 weeks after cessation of treatment. They were assessedwith McGill Pain Questionnaire (MPQ), and their results of laboratory tests were recorded before and after treatment. The data set analyzedincluded Intention-To-Treat, and per protocol. Results The differences between 2 groups were statistically significant in Pain RatingIndex, Visual Analog Score and Present Pain Intensity after treatment (P<0.05). 6 patients in the treatment group and 1 patient in the controlgroup recovered. During the 4-week follow-up, 1 case recured in each group, the intensity of pain was not statistically significant. There wasno difference in the laboratory indice of blood, urine, stool routine, liver and kidney function (ALT, BUN, Cr) and ECG in both groups beforeand after treatment. Conclusion The high-voltage electrostatic therapy is effective and safe on chronic migraine.

Objective To evaluate the change of cellular immunity and its clinical significance in JRA.Methods 7 lymphocyte swbpopulation was analyzed by immunofluorescein and interleukin 2 (IL-2) produced by peripheral blood mononuclear cells in vitro by MTT colorimetric assay. 29 times of various stage with JRA were examined, including 14 clinically active patients, 8 posttreatment or 7 clinically inactive ones. There are 19 healthy children of similar age in control group.Results In active patients, the number of OKT8, OKT4, the ratio of OKT4/OKT8 and the level of IL-2 decreased significantly compared with normal controls. These changes recovered matkedly in remission patients though they did alter affective treatment for (2～4) weeks.Conclusion Patients with active JRA are characterised by aberration of cellular immunity and the aberration reverses obviously slow in comparision with the clinical manifestetions and the routine laboratory investigation.

ObjectiveTo assess the diagnostic value of dual-energy dual-source CT in detecting the enhancement ofhepatocellularcancer( HCC )aftertransarterialchemoembolization( TACE )treatment.Methods Twenty-seven patients with HCC underwent dual-energy dual-source CT including nonenhanced,arterial,portal,and delayed phases scanning after TACE treatment.Arterial phases were acquired with the dual-energy mode for reconstruction of virtual nonenhanced images and color overlay images.DSAs were performed in all these patients.Two blinded and independent readers evaluated the data in 2 reading sessions:standard nonenhanced,arterial phase,portal phase,and delayed phase images were read in session A,and virtual nonenhanced,arterial phase,portal phase,and delayed phase images in session B.Sensitivity and specificity were calculated,with the DSA data set as the reference standard.The sensitivity and specificity were compared with Chi-square test.Results DSA revealed 63 lesions in 27 patients,and 39 of them had blood supply.Overall sensitivity and specificity were 74.4％ (29/39) and 83.3％ (20/24) for session A,and 94.9％ (37/39),95.8％ (23/24) for session B,respectively.The sensitivity of the two reading sessions was significantly different (x2 =6.303,P ＜ 0.05 ),while the specificity was insignificantly different ( x2 =2.009,P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion Compared with standard dynamic protocols,an arterial dual-energy dual-source CT scan with reconstruction of virtual nonenhanced and color overlay images enables detection of relapse and intrahepatic metastasis of HCC after TACE treatment with higher accuracy.

OBJECTIVETo study the reliability and validity of Chinese version of International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and to provide an instrument for physical activity measurement in Chinese-spoken population.

METHODSTest-retest reliability was systemically assessed in 94 participants sampled from college students. Questionnaires were completed twice with a three-day interval. The validity was established in 39 volunteers by Caltrac accelerometer monitoring and 24-hour activity recording for seven consecutive days.

RESULTSBoth long vision (LV) and short vision (SV) had intraclass correlation coefficients above 0.7 for physical activity. The total energy expenditure measured by LV, SV and PA records were 264.5 +/- 260.9, 185.4 +/- 128.9 (compared with activity records, P < 0.05) and 250.5 +/- 141.2 MET-min/d respectively. Energy expenditure of moderate physical activity were 81.7 +/- 165.4, 32.0 +/- 42.5 (compared with activity record, P < 0.05) and 61.3 +/- 72.0 MET-min/d. Caltrac accelerometer was moderately correlated with LV (r = 0.50) and SV (r = 0.63) while SV measured total daily energy expenditure was lower than activity records. When participants were categorized into two groups according to their time spent in physical activity above or below the target level, proportions of agreement of questionnaires and 24-hour activity records were high, including vigorous physical activity above 90% and moderate physical activity above 70%. LV, SV and activity records were measured during sedentary condition at an approximate level.

CONCLUSIONSBoth LV and SV of IPAQ appeared to have acceptable reliability and validity, compared to other physical activity instruments that were used in various large epidemiological studies. The total or physical energy expenditures were similar between LV and activity records. For activity levels, the proportion of agreement were similar between activity records and LV or SV. However, SV underestimated the energy expenditure of total and moderate physical activity.
