Objective To observe the effect of kinesiotherapy-combined scalp acupuncture plus rehabilitation on the joint range of motion (ROM) and activities of daily life (ADL) in kids with spastic cerebral palsy. Method Fifty-one eligible patients with spastic cerebral palsy were divided into a treatment group of 23 cases and a control group of 28 cases by the random number table. The control group received conventional rehabilitation, whereas the treatment group received kinesiotherapy-combined scalp acupuncture in addition to the rehabilitation therapy. Before and after treatment, a joint protractor was used to measure the passive ROM of ankle, knee, and hip joints; the Modified Ashworth Scale was used to evaluate the muscular tension of the adductor muscles of lower limbs, hamstring muscles, and gastrocnemius; the scale for ADL was adopted to evaluate the ADL. Result The joint ROM was significantly improved by different degrees in the treatment group after intervention (P<0.05), and the popliteal angle and dorsal flexion of foot in the treatment group were significantly different from that in the control group (P<0.05). In the treatment group, the muscular tension of hamstring muscles and gastrocnemius after treatment was significantly different from that before treatment (P<0.05); the change of the muscular tension of gastrocnemius in the treatment group after intervention was significantly different from that in the control group (P<0.05); the change of ADL in the treatment group after intervention was significantly different from that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Kinesiotherapy-combined scalp acupuncture plus conventional rehabilitation can markedly improve the ROM and ADL in patients with spastic cerebral palsy.

Objective To investigate the effect of scalp acupuncture plus MOTOmed virtual scene training on gross motor function and ADL in patients with spastic cerebral palsy. Methods Thirty patients with spastic cerebral palsy meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly allocated to a treatment group of 12 cases and a control group of 18 cases. The control group received routine rehabilitation therapy and the treatment group, scalp acupuncture plus MOTOmed virtual scene training in addition. Adductor, gastrocnemius and hamstring muscle tensions were determined using the Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), gross motor function was measured using the Gross Motor Scale and the activities of daily living were assessed using the ADL in the two groups of patients before and after treatment. Results There were statistically significant pre-/post-treatment differences in adductor, gastrocnemius and hamstring muscle tensions in the treatment group (P<0.05). There was a statistically significant pre-/post-treatment difference in adductor muscle tension in the control group (P<0.05). There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in gastrocnemius and hamstring muscle tensions between the treatment and control groups (P<0.05). There were statistically significant pre-/post-treatment differences in the foot dorsiflexion angle and popliteal fossa angle in the treatment group (P<0.05). There was a statistically significant pre-/post-treatment difference in the posterior femoral angle in the control group (P<0.05). There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in the foot dorsiflexion angle and popliteal fossa angle between the treatment and control groups (P<0.05). There were statistically significant pre-/post-treatment differences in the GMFM score and the ADL score in the two groups (P<0.05). There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in the GMFM score and the ADL score between the treatment and control groups (P<0.05).

Objective:To investigate the predictors of intracranial hemorrhage in patients with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST).Methods:Patients with CVST treated in Drum Tower Hospital Affiliated to Medical School of Nanjing University from January 2008 to March 2021 were retrospectively enrolled. The risk factors, clinical manifestations, imaging examination and 90 d follow-up data were collected. The complicated intracranial hemorrhage group and non-intracranial hemorrhage group were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent predictors of intracranial hemorrhage in patients with CVST. Results:A total of 104 patients with CVST were enrolled, including 42 males and 62 females. Their age was 35.24 ± 10.92 years old (range 22-68 years). Thirty-eight patients (36.84%) were complicated with intracranial hemorrhage, including 34 hemorrhagic cerebral infarction and 4 complicated subarachnoid hemorrhage. Univariate analysis showed that compared with the non-intracerebral hemorrhage group, the intracranial hemorrhage group was more common in puerperal/pregnant patients (60.52% vs. 48.48%; P=0.012), with more acute onset (57.89% vs. 48.48%; P=0.004), focal neurological signs (47.37% vs. 19.70%; P=0.003) and seizure (39.47% vs. 18.18%; P=0.017), and the site of thrombosis was more common in the superior sagittal sinus (57.89% vs. 36.36%; P=0.033). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that puerperium/pregnancy (odds ratio 2.857, 95% confidence interval 1.095-7.453; P=0.031) and superior sagittal sinus thrombosis (odds ratio 2.847, 95% confidence interval 1.110-7.302; P=0.027) were the independent predictors of intracranial hemorrhage in patients with CVST. The analysis at 90 d after onset showed that there was no significant difference in the good outcome rate between the intracranial hemorrhage group and the non-intracranial hemorrhage group (86.84% vs. 89.39%; P=0.695). Conclusions:Puerperium/pregnancy and superior sagittalsinus thrombosis are the independent risk factors for intracranial hemorrhage in patients with CVST. However, complicated with intracranial hemorrhage is not associated with 90-day clinical outcomes.
