OBJECTIVE:To study the protective effects of Xingnaojing(XNJ)and Ligustrazine(Lig)on rat's cortical neu_ rons of primary culture.METHODS:The effects of XNJ and Lig in counteracting the excitotoxicity of glutamic acid(10?l/L,3h)in rat's cortical neurons of primary culture were observed.RESULTS:Both XNJ and Lig could decrease the release of LDH from cells into culture medium and reduce the changes in cell morphology.CONCLUSION:XNJ or Lig can protect cultured cortical neurons from excitotoxicity of glutamic acid and more obvious effect can be initiated through combined use of them.

Objective To summarize the perioperative nursing experience of microsurgical denervation of the spermatic cord to treat idiopathic chronic orthialgia.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical record data of two patients with idiopathic chronic orthialgia,who received microsurgical denervation of the spermatic cord in our hospital,including pre-and postoperative symptom scores,evaluation of mental state and wound nursing.Results Both patients got complete pain relief and were discharged one week after operation.No would infection and mental fluctuation was noted.Conclusions The reasonable individual perioperative nursing is an elemental component of recovery for patients with chronic orthialgia who experienced microsurgical management.

Objective To evaluate the application of multi-parameter three-dimension arterial spin labeling (3D-ASL) in observing the brain perfusion of patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA). Methods A total of 42 TIA patients, admitted to our hospital from July 2014 to March 2017, were included in this study. All subjects underwent conventional MRI, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and 3D-ASL scanning. Abnormal signals, and cerebral arterial stenosis or occlusion were observed under MRI, DWI and MRA; cerebral blood flow (CBF) map was drew after analyzing the 3D-ASL imaging, and abnormal reperfusion of ASL-CBF was qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed. The detection rate of abnormal reperfusion in TIA patients by 3D-ASL (PLD=1.5 s, PLD=2.5 s) and MRA were compared. Results Forty-two TIA patients showed no positive findings on conventional MRI and DWI maps, of which 18 patients showed different degrees of cerebral artery stenosis on MRA maps. Twenty-seven patients (PLD=1.5 s, 64.29％) and 21 (PLD=2.5 s, 50％) on ASL-CBF maps showed different sizes and degrees of abnormal hypoperfusion, and significant difference was found in detection rate of hypoperfusion by 3D-ASL (PLD=1.5 s and PLD=2.5 s, χ2=23.333, P=0.000). The detection rates of hypoperfusion by 3D-ASL (PLD=1.5 s and PLD=2.5 s) were 中华神经医学杂志2017年12月第16卷 第12期 Chin J Neuromed, December 2017, Vol.16, No.12 significantly higher than that by MRA (χ2=17.500, P=0.000; χ2=31.500, P=0.000). Conclusions The 3D-ASL can quantitatively analyze the degrees of perfusion of patients with TIA. 3D-ASL can comprehensively reflect the perfusion status in patients with TIA, and short PLD 3D-ASL is more sensitive than long PLD ASL in finding TIA, while long PLD 3D-ASL can reflect the perfusion status more truly.
