Objective To conduct a retrospective analysis of the relationship between the time of rehabilitation intervention and its effectiveness among hemiplegic patients after cerebral infarction.Methods Fifty-four hemiplegic stroke patients within 1 week of onset were randomly divided into three equal groups of 18:In the A group rehabilitation was begun 1 to 2 weeks after onset; in the B group it was started between 2 and 4 weeks; in the C group rehabilitation was begun after four weeks.The patients all received comprehensive hemiplegic limb training,electric standing bed training,functional electrical stimulation and medical gymnastics for hemiplegia.Motor function was assessed using the Fugl-Meyer balance function assessment and the modified Barthel index before treatment,in the course of the first week of treatment and 3 months later.Results A group and B group made similar progress,but the curative effect in group C was significantly weaker.Conclusion Rehabilitation should be started within 1 month after the onset of cerebral infarction.

Objective To observe the influence of telephone follow-up and home follow-up on compliance behavior and activities of daily living (ADL) of stroke patients during rehabilitation. Methods 50 cases were as telephone follow-up group and 50 cases were as home follow-up group extracted from 355 stroke patients who discharged the hospital during August 1, 2010 to July 1, 2012. They were followed up 2 weeks, 1 month and 3 months after discharge respectively. Their ADL were assessed with Bathel index (BI) at discharge and 3 months after discharge, and the compliance behavior were assessed 3 months after discharge. Results There was no significant difference in the score of BI between 2 groups at discharge (P>0.05), and the score of BI improved in both groups 3 months after discharge (P<0.05), but it was higher in the home follow-up group than in the telephone follow-up group (P<0.05), as well as the rate of compliance behavior (P<0.01). Conclusion Regular home follow-up can improve the compliance behavior of stroke patients during rehabilitation.

Genomic instability is one of the most pervasive characteristics of cancer cells,and DNA damage response (DDR) pathway plays a crucial role in genomic stability.The DDR pathway is a complex signaling network,which involves cell DNA repair,apoptosis and cell cycle regulation.Deficiencies in these repair pathways can result in several different genetic disorders,including cancer.Targeted therapy based on inhibiting the DDR pathway in cancers offers a novel therapy strategy for patients with tumors lacking specific DDR functions.Many small-mole-cule compounds targeting DDR pathway are typically developed for solid cancer therapy.The poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor is a kind of DDR inhibitors which exploits the principle of synthetic lethality to selectively kill cancer cells.This review highlights the molecular mechanisms of PARP inhibitor action,the progress of PARP inhibitors in cancer therapy,drug resistance and the challenge of PARP inhibitor in the future.

Objective To investigate the role of norepinephrine in the down-regulated visceral sensitivity of rats deprived of rapid eye movement(REM)sleep.Methods Twenty-four male Sprague- Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:cage-yoked rats as control(YC),rats with REM sleep deprivation(SD)and rats with yohimbine administered intraperitoneally after REM sleep deprivation(YSD).Flower pot technique was employed to make sleep deprivation model.YSD group was given vohimbine intraperitoneally at the 48th hour after REM sleep deprivation.After both SD and YSD groups had completed these processes,rats of all the three groups were given colorectal distension(CRD)and electromyogram (EMG)was recorded at the same time.The number of discharges of EMG and the threshold of Dain perception of the rats were observed to evaluate the visceral sensitivity.The thalamus,rectum and distal colon were taken after CRD;MAO-mRNA and TH-mRNA in three tissues were detected with RT-PCR.Resuits On 48th hour,the number of discharges of EMG in 10 seconds responding to CRD in group SD was significantly less than that in group YC and the threshold of pain perception in group SD was higher than that in group YC(P＜0.05).The number of discharge of EMG in group YSD was significantly more than that in group SD(P＜0.05).The expression of MAO-mRNA in group SD was lower than that in group YC(P＜0.05)and the expression of TH-mRNA in group SD was higher than that in group YC(P＜ 0.05).Conclusions The visceral sensitivity in rats is down-regulated by REM sleep deprivation,which can increase synthesis of norepinephrine.Norepinephrine can modulate visceral sensitivity.

Objective To investigate the differential expression profile in the progeny of human liver cells surviving from ionizing radiation.Methods Complemental DNA gene chip was used to measure the transcriptional profile in progeny of HL-7702 cells exposed to 0, 2, 4, and 6 Gy of 60Co γ-rays, and the differentially expressed genes HAVCR2 and RAN were further identified by real-time PCR.Results The transcription level of 262 genes, 2746 genes and 3406 genes changed in the progeny of survival cells at 2, 4 and 6 Gy, respectively.A total of 71 common differentially expressed genes were screened, most of which were associated with transduction, cell cycle regulation, cellular immunity, cytoskeleton and movement, cell replication and repair mechanism.Conclusions Ionizing radiation could induce the expression changes of many genes, which might reveal the molecular mechanisms of gene expression in radiation induced genomic instability.

Objective To evaluate the efficiency of transcatheter closure of secundum artrial septal defect (ASD) using Amplatzer occluder device in 5 years.Methods There were 18 children with ASD.Each ASD was occluded using Amplatzer occluder device through the percutaneous procedure.The closure procedure was guided by fluoroscopy and transthoracic echocardiography.All patients were followed up by physical examination,color flow echocardiography,chest radition,electrocardiography at 48 h,1month,3 month,6 month,one year,two years,three years,four years and five years.Results Cardiac murmur disappeared or lightened.Arrhythmia and right heart volume in all patients were improved after the procedure.A case revealed a trival shunt of short duration and vanished after one month color flow echo.A case has “spring′s beat” in heart when she goes to bed in three years after the procedure.Another patient had serious headach after closure and recoved after heparin therapy.Conclusions Transcatheter closure of secundum ASD using amplatzer occluder device is safe and efficient by follow-up.In order to prevent cerebral embolism,heparin should be injected in vein in two days.

Objective To investigate the effect of high mobility group box chromosomal protein 1 (HMGB-1) on the proliferation and inflammatory phenotype of human fibroblast like synoviocytes (FLS).Methods FLSs were isolated from the synovial tissues of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients undergoing joint replacement surgery.All the experiments described here utilize the FLSs between the third and sixth passages.FLS were incubated with HMGB1 at (100,500,2 000 ng/ml) or interleukin (IL)-1β (0.5 ng/ml) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (100 ng/ml) alone or HMGB1/IL-1β complexes or HMGB1/LPS complexes.Cell proliferation assay were used by CCK-8,IL-6,IL-8 and matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) in culture supernatants were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.The measurement data were compared with single factor analysis of variance.Results Stimulation with all concentrations of HMGB1,IL-1β and LPS alone did not affect the cell proliferation of FLS.HMGB1/IL-1β complexes and HMGB1/LPS complexes did not affect the cell proliferation of FLS,neither (F=0.415.P=0.915).Except high concentration of HMGB1 (2 000 ng/ml) could significantly stimulate the secretion of IL-6 from FLS [(23.0±1.1) ng/ml],HMGB1,IL-1β and LPS alone did not affect the production of IL-6,IL-8 and MMP-3.However,HMGB1/IL-1β complexes and HMGB1/LPS complexes increased IL-6,IL-8 and MMP-3 production from FLS (F=97.804,117.383,70.179,P=0.000).Conclusion Neither HMGB1,IL-1β,LPS alone nor HMGB1/IL-1β complexes or HMGB1/LPS complexes affect the cell proliferation of FLS.HMGB1 in complex with LPS or IL-1β boost IL-6,IL-8 and MMP-3 production in synovial fibroblasts from RA patients.

Objective To establish a new traceability pathway of point-of-care testing ( POCT ) of HBA1c by using commutable quality controls, in order to improve the accuracy of POCT HBA1c and the harmonization of testing results with those of central laboratories.Methods The study was about measurement traceability. Human frozen whole blood samples with IFCC assigned values were used to calibrate the G8 HBA1c Variant in June, 2013.According to the CLSI EP9-A2-IR guideline, 50 patient samples and 2-level commercial QC samples were then analyzed by G8 system and DCA Ventage system.The best fitting curves for fresh patient samples and the commercial QC materials were established separately. The patient results tested on the DCA Ventage were modified and verified.Paired t-test and Passing Bablok linear regression were used.Results The linear equation of DCA/G8 before calibration was Y=0.899 5X+0.389 1(R2 =0.991 0).Calibration by fresh patient samples reduced the mean bias of DCA/G8 from -0.40%±0.34%to 0.00%±0.29%.Calibration by QCs reduced the mean bias to 0.15%±0.29%.The linear correlation established by quality controls was stable, which made the bias was lower between DCA and G8 in the consequent six runs.Conclusions The accuracy and the traceability of POC testing could be realized by using commutable QC materials traceable to IFCC assigned values.Through this method, POC testing can become more comparable to the results of clinical laboratory HBA1c instruments.

Aim To establish the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic(PK-PD) modeling to characterize the antipyretic effects of coptisine, an active component in coptis chinensis on rats.Methods Nine healthy male Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into three groups, each with three.The rats in the first group were injected intravenously with lipopolysaccharide(LPS,100 μg·kg-1) alone.The second and third group rats were given coptisine high-dose(3.87 mg·kg-1) and coptisine low-dose(1.93 mg·kg-1) by tail vein injection at 30 min after LPS injection, respectively.Body temperature was measured at different time points, and blood samples from tail vein were collected simultaneously.The blood concentration of coptisine was determined by ultra performance liquid chromatography.Monolix software was used to model PK-PD of coptisine mean plasma concentration and temperature effects,by population computation with non-covariates.Besides.the model with advantage was selected by the fitting goodness.Results Coptisine could inhibit body temperature of endotoxin-induced fever in rats significantly.Two-compartment linear elimination model was used to describe the final PK model.Gaussian function, an input function of body temperature changes, which was used to depict PD model, the PK and PD models were connected by the Emax model.At last, the final model was fitted better;the fitting results indicated that the EC50 of antipyretic effect of coptisine was 89.7 μg·L-1, and the Emax was 1.88℃.Conclusions Coptisine has a powerful anti-pyretic effect on endotoxin-induced pyrexia of rats with high potency, Low in vivo distribution and quick clearance.
