Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2005;11(1):23-24
ObjectiveTo introduce a rapid and stable rat model of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Methods32 Wistar male rats were used to induce focal cerebral ischemia according to Longa's method. The main difference from Longa's was to introduce a nylon suture into the cervical internal carotid artery without ligation the pterygopalatine artery (PPA). Regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF), neurological deficit, brain water content, red tetrzolium (TTC) stain and pathology were evaluated in all rats.ResultsThe operation proceeded about 15 min after anaesthesia. Rats after operation presented severe neurological deficits companied with rCBF decreases. There were significant increases of brain water contents in ischemic brain regions. TTC staining showed infarct areas and histological examinations revealed remarkable astrocyte swelling and neuronal necrosis.ConclusionInducing rat MCAO without ligation of PPA could produce reliable ischemic changes,with the advantage of shortening operation time.

Journal of Clinical Pediatrics 2013;(9):854-857
Objectives To conduct nutritional risk assessment analysis of hand-foot-mouth disease in children and to explore rational and feasible nutritional intervention. Methods The information of children with hand-foot-mouth disease in three hospitals in Guilin area was collected by ifxed-spot continuous sampling. Inquiry investigations, physical mea-surements combined with clinical diagnosis were undertaken, and nutritional risk assessment and management were con-ducted by the malnutrition screening tool of children (STAMP scoring). Those with STAMP scores ≥4 were considered at high nutritional risk. Nutritional risk reassessment was conducted on children with high nutritional risk after nutritional intervention and management. Results A total of 192 children with hand-foot-mouth disease were selected. The occur-rence rate of high nutritional risk was 68.75%(132/192). The hospitalization time of patients with high nutritional risk was prolonged and the hospitalization expense was increased apparently. The nutritional support treatment and nutritional edu-cation were undertaken on the children with high nutritional risk. The incidence of high nutritional risk from admission to discharge decreased from 68.75%to 36.98%(P<0.05). The clinical outcomes of those children accepting nutritional inter-vention were signiifcantly improved (P<0.05). Conclusions The occurrence and prognosis of hand-foot-mouth disease is closely related to the nutritional status of children, so nutritional risk assessment, nutritional intervention and management should be performed as early as possible.

Objective: To investigate moderating role of sense of humor to the relationship between stressful events and mental health. Methods: 836 middle-school students were investigated by MSHS, ASLEC and GHQ-20. Results: Sense of humor had a positive effect on students’ mental health, and strong humor could deduce the level of anxiety and depressed emotion. Sense of humor could buffer the relationship of stressful events and depression, but it could not adjust the relationship of stressful events with self-affirmation and anxiety. Conclusion: Sense of humor has a moderating effect on the stressful events and some aspects of mental health.

Objectives To validate the Screening Tool for the Assessment of Malnutrition in Pediatrics (STAMP) in hospitalized pediatric patients, and to assess the nutritional status and nutritional risk using STAMP. Methods the nutritional status of hospitalized pediatric patients was investigated by adopting STAMP. The STAMP score≥4 was deifned as a high standard of nutritional risk. Results Among 1 506 hospitalized children, children with high nutritional risk accounted for 26.56%. The overall prevalence of malnutrition and stunting was 19.12%and 10.16%, respectively. There was signiifcant diffe-rence in stunting among each department (P<0.05), which was the highest in department of internal pediatrics. The proportion of patients receiving nutritional support was 10.09%. Among them, the rate of parenteral and enteral nutrition support was 7.84%and 2.92%, respectively. The ratio of parenteral nutrition to enteral nutrition was 2.68:1. After intervention to hospitalized pa-tients with high nutritional risk, the overall prevalence of high nutritional risk decreased from 26.56%at admission to 21.71%at discharge (P<0.05). Conclusions STAMP can objectively relfect the possible malnutritional risk in hospitalized pediatric patients. The nutrition condition of the pediatric patients can be improved through nutritional risk management.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of exogenous IGFBPrP1 on collagen content in liver tissue. Methods Twenty-four male C57BL/6 wild-type mice were randomly divided into three groups: Control group (n=8), rmIGFBPrP1 2 weeks group (n=8) and rmIGFBPrP1 4weeks group (n=8). Both hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and picric acid-Sirius red staining were performed. The protein expression of IGFBPrP1, Collagen Ⅰ , Collagen Ⅲ, FN, TGF-β1, Smad3 andp-Smad2/3 was evaluated by immunohistochemistry or Western blot. Results Exogenous IGFBPrP1 can cause pathological changes in liver tissue. Collagen content was significantly increased by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and picric acid-Sirius red staining (P<0.05). The protein expression of IGFBPrP1, FN and Collagen Ⅰ was gradually increased after rmIGFBPrP1 injection for 2 weeks and 4 weeks by Western blot (P<0.01). The protein expression of Collagen Ⅲ was obviously increased in the rmIGFBPrP1 2 weeks group and rmIGFBPrP1 4 weeks group by immunohistochemistry, and the level in the 4 weeks group was higher than that in the 2 weeks group (P<0. 01). The protein expression of TGF-β1, Smad3 and p-Smad2/3 in liver tissue was significantly increased after rmIGFBPrP1 injection in a time-dependent manner by both immunohistochemistry and Western blot (P<0. 01).Conclusion Exogenous IGFBPrP1 can cause a marked increase in collagen content and the excessive deposition of ECM through the TGF-β1/Smad3 pathway in liver tissue.
