Objective To use self-efficacy theory to intervene patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD),and assess its efficacy on the self management level of COPD patients.Methods 106 COPD patients hospitalized in the respiratory department of a certain hospital from October 2011 to April 2012 were randomly divided into the control group and the intervention group.Each group consisted of 53 patients.Two groups of patients received routine respiratory treatment and nursing.But patients in the intervention group were also systematically intervened under the guidance of Bandura self-efficacy theory.The self-management level of both groups of patients were assessed before the treatment and six weeks after the treatment respectively.Results The self-management level of the intervention group were significantly better than that of the control group after intervention.Conclusions Self-efficacy theory can improve the self-management level of patients with COPD.

Objective To study pathological feature of sacroiliitis of spondyloarthropathies (SpA) in different stages,and improve the threshold of early diagnosis of SpA.Method Samples of sacroiliac joints (SIJ) of 8 patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and 5 patients with undifferential spondyloarthropathies (uSpA) were taken when SIJ steroid injection was performed.The pathological feature was studied.Results Synovitis,including lining cell hyperplasia and inflammatory cell infiltration in looseconnective tissue,local cartilage degeneration,fibrosis and inflammatory cell infiltration in subchondral bony plate and marrow cave were found in 6 (86%,6/7) samples in patients with normal/suspectable SIJ CT scan.In the CT Ⅱ and Ⅲ degree sacroiliitis,marked degeneration and fibrosis of cartilage,inflammatory cell infiltration,pannus formation and subchondral bony plate destruction were increasingly prominent.In the advanced sacroiliitis (CT Ⅳ degree),destruction and calcification of cartilage and subchondral bony plate were the major feature.Eosinopil (EO) was increased in the infiltration cells of synovium and subchrodral bony plate in 3 samples.Conclusion Synovitis,including hyperplasia of lining cell and the infiltration of inflammatory cell in loose connective tissue,and local cartilage degeneration and inflammatory cell infiltration,and destruction of subchondral bony plate are the early changes identified in sacroiliitis.Pathological examination can improve the threshold of early diagnosis of sacroiliitis in case it cannot be confirmed with CT scan.

Objective To observe the effects of butylphthalide on the expression of autophagy-related protein and mRNA in l-meth-yl-4-phenyl-pyridiniumion (MPP+)-induced SH-SY5Y cells, and to explore the protective effect and possible mechanism of butylphthalide to the cell model of Parkinson's disease. Methods The SH-SY5Y cells were divided into control group (A), MPP+group (B), rapamycin pre-treated+MPP+group (C) and Butylphthalide pretreated+MPP+group (D). The relative viability of SH-SY5Y cells induced by MPP+was measured with MTT assay, the morphology of SH-SY5Y cells was observed. The expression of microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3)-II/I and Beclin 1 protein was detected by Western blotting. And the expression of LC3-II/I and Beclin 1 mRNA were assayed by re-al-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR). Results The viability rates of cells were significantly lower in group B than in group A (t=20.270, P<0.001), and were significantly higher in groups C and D than in group B (t>8.770, P<0.001), however, there was no significantly difference between groups C and D (t=2.270, P=0.064). The expression of LC3-II/I and Beclin 1 was higher in group B than in group A (t>6.647, P<0.01), and was higher in groups C and D than in group B (t>3.630, P<0.01), however, there was no significantly differ-ence between groups C and D (t<2.238, P≥0.05). Conclusion Butylphthalide could prevent the injury of SH-SY5Y cells induced by MPP+, which may affect Parkinson's disease by inducing autophagy.

BACKGROUND: Therapist-assisted treadmill training is good gait training, but it consumes great physical strength of therapists, and requires many persons. Clinical application was limited. Robot-assisted treadmill training has been paid great attention. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the role of robot in recovery of walking after spinal cord injury (SCI) and its influence on muscle activation patterns and kinematic patterns.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Although there is currently no evidence that robot-assisted gait training improves walking function more than other locomotor training strategies. Several advantages of robotic devices are obvious for applications targeting gait rehabilitation. Robotic devices are passive in nature and focus primarily on repeated movements of the limbs via fixed kinematic trajectories. These types of training abolish the cycle-to-cycle variation in the kinematics and the sensorimotor pathways. They also cannot sensitively monitor important characteristics of the training as therapists do. Therapists need to know the robot devices, understand how to change parameters to continuously challenge the subjects, and are able to assess when the workload is inappropriate for the subject's abilities so that they can maximize voluntary locomotor performance during assisted stepping to augment the recovery of functional walking.
