Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2002;8(12):755-756
ObjectiveTo study the effect of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) treatment on post-stoke depression (PSD) and neurological functional rehabilitation.Methods60 patients with PSD were randomly divided into two groups, treatment group and control group. Patients in the treatment group were given HBO treatment in addition to the regular treatment. Changes of scores of Hamilton depression (HAMD), Chinese stroke scale (CSS), and activity of daily living (ADL) before and after treatment in two groups were observed and evaluated.ResultsAfter 1 month treatment scores of HAMD, CSS, and ADL in the treatment group got obviously better results than before treatment (P<0.01). While scores in the control group had no significant difference(P>0.05).Conclusions It is suggested that HBO may improve the depressive symptom and neurological functional rehabilitation in PSD patients.

The aim of this study was to assess the peri-implant parameters and evaluate the clinical status with the survival of dental implants in body of maxilla after treatments of oral tumor. A follow-up examination included 27 patients who underwent the ablative tumor and (or) reconstructive surgery during a 5-year period. The follow-up protocol included clinical examination, radiological evaluation, and an interview using a standardized questionnaire. The reasons related to implant failure were studied by comparing the amount of failure with the value of marginal bone resorption, probing pocket depth, and plaque index using statistical t-test. The relationship between smoking and implant failure was analyzed statistically by chi-square test. The results showed among the 112 implants observed after implant loading, 29 have failed with the failure rate being 22.14 %. There was no significant correlation between the peri-implant status and the implant failure (P>0.05), however, the association of smoking and implant failure was statistically tested (P<0.05). It was suggested that the association of peri-implant status and implant failure in the maxilla after tumor surgery can't be statistically tested, however smoking was still a mainly significant factor.

Objective To summarize the experience in the treatment of cardiac and thoracic aortic injury.Methods 30 patients with cardiac and thoracic aortic injury from 1996 to 2007 are retrospectively studied,including the diagnosis,preoperative preparation,main points of the operation and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.Results 24 patients were completely cured,having no residual in the follow-up periods.4 patients with multiple wound died of complication.2 patients with thoracic aortic injury died in the operation.Conclusion Prompt diagnosis after injury,fast preoperative preparation,precise operative approach and technique,effective cardiopulmonary resuscitation and refraining from omitting associated injury are the key points to the salvage of cardiac and thoracic aortic injury.

Objective To explore the risk factors and seek effective intervention of intracranial hemorrhage in the premature in-fants .Methods Clinical data of the premature infants in our hospital from January 2009 to December 2013 was retrospectively ana-lysed and single factor analysis of 20 relevant factors was done for cases with intracerebral haemorrhage and without intracerebral haemorrhage .Logistic regression analysis were done for some influence factors of intracranial hemorrhage .Results 1 726 cases of premature babies were included in the study ,including 264 cases of intracranial hemorrhage .Logistic regression analysis results shown that the neonatal transport network and integrated active transport models are protective factors of intracranial hemorrhage in the premature infant .We found that basic-level hospital transport was an independent risk factor .Between January 2009 and De-cember 2011 ,142 of 714 premature infants were intracranial hemorrhage ,including 88 cases from 348 patients transported from bas-ic-level hospital ,the incidence of intracranial hemorrhage was 25 .29% ,and compared with the incidence of intracranial hemorrhage (14 .75% ) of our hospital ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .From January 2012 ,we established perfect neonatal transport network and implementation of comprehensive active transport model .122 of 1 012 premature infants were intracranial hemorrhage ,including 75 cases of 490 patients from basic-level hospitals .The incidence was statistically significant different com-pared with the incidence of intracranial hemorrhage(9 .00% ) transported from our hospital(P<0 .05) .The incidence of intracranial hemorrhage in the premature infants transported from basic-level hospitals were statistically different before and after neonatal transport network and comprehensive active transport model was established (P<0 .01) .Conclusion It will effectively reduce the incidence of intracranial hemorrhage in the premature infant by establishing the perfect regional neonatal three-level network trans-port system and comprehensive active transport models .

Objective To study the genetic diversity of different geographical populations of Houttuynia cordata in China.Methods The genetic diversity of 15 geographical populations of H.cordata from 13 provinces in China was estimated using amplified fragment length polymorphism(AFLP) markers.The data of amplified bands were analyzed by the software POPGENE and MEGA.Results The ten AFLP primers employed produced a total of 110 discernable and reproduceable amplified fragments.The percentage of polymorphic bands within different populations was 70.51%.Genetic diversity analysis showed that effective number of alleles(Ne) was 1.210,Nei′s gene diversity(H) was 0.119,and Shannon′s genetic diversity index(I) was 0.186.The coefficient of genetic distance was 0.008 9—0.181 8 among populations.A UPGMA dendrogram based on Nei′s(1972) genetic distance visualized that the 15 populations were grouped into three different clusters,Emei population was one individual cluster group and the other populations were grouped into two different clusters corresponding to the different geographical areas.Conclusion The genetic diversity within different geographical populations of H.cordata in China is plentiful.

The fused gene (PTH-HSA) of parathyroid hormone (PTH) gene and Human Serum Albumin(HSA) gene was amplified without linker by Overlapping PCR technology. The spliced gene was clone into Pichia pastoris secretory vector pPIC9K. With the help of promoter AOX1 and mat ? signal peptide, the PTH-HSA gene was designed to secretory expression.Linearized by restriction enzyme SalI, The recombinant plasmid pPIC9K/PTH-HSA was transformed into Pichia pastoris KM71 by electroporation. The recombinant strains which were identified by G418 and PCR analysis were induced by methanol to express protein PTH-HSA. The target protein was expressed in fermentation supernatant. Western blot analysis of the fusion protein showed that the expressed fusion protein PTH-HSA had the antigenicity of HSA.adenylate cyclase assay proved that the fused protein exhibited the bioactivity to stimulate cAMP synthesis The specific activity of broth was about 318IU/ml.
