Chinese Journal of Geriatrics 2008;27(9):668-669
Objective To summarize the treatment experience of acute cerebral infarction (ACI)combined with deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of lower extremities in the elderly. Methods Thirty cases of elder patients with ACI combined with DVT (ACI group) were enrolled in this study, and 31 cases of elder patients with DVT were served as control group. All the patients were immobilized for 3 days and treated with low molecular heparin calcium (100 IU/kg,Q12 hX14 d). On the tenth day,warfarin was used and INR was controlled in 2.0~2.5. Low molecular dextran was infused intravenously per day for 14 days (500mg/d). Results Edema in the lower limbs of patients were apparently reduced. 4 eases had cerebral hemorrhage in ACI group, and none in the control group.Hemorrhage occured from 3 to 7 days during the treatment with low molecular heparin calcium. One of the patient died of massive intraeranial hemorrhage with lung infection. Conclnsions It should be more careful to use the low molecular heparin to treat the elder patients older than 80 years old with ACI combined with DVT.

Objective To study the impact of local fractionated irradiation on lung metastasis in H22-bearing mice, and to explore its mechanism involved. Methods Subcutaneous transplantation tumor model bearing with H22 was established. Mice were divided into three groups as healthy control, tumor control and irradiation groups. The size of subcutaneous tumors was measured and lung metastasis was observed. The expressions of PCNA, VEGF and MVD were detected immunohistochemically. The plasma levels of CD4 and CD8 were determined by using flow cytometry. Results The tumor size in irradiated group was smaller than that in tumor control group. The tumor inhibition rate in irradiated group was 30%.Lung metastasis in irradiated group was more severe than that in tumor control group (x2 = 8.31,4.48,9. 60, P< 0.05 ). The expressions of PCNA, VEGF and MVD in two groups were statistically different( t =23.78,-2.47, -6.43, P < 0. 05). The levels of CD4 and CD8 in irradiated group were statistically different compared to healthy control group ( t = 4. 72 and 3.31, P< 0.05 ). Conclusions For the H22 model, radiation might inhibit the local transplantation tumor, but increase the risk of lung metastasis.

Objective To investigate the value of differential diagnosis for subcortical ischemic vascular dementia(SIVD)and Alzheimer's disease(AD)with memory and executive screening(MES) scale. Methods Fifty SIVD and 50 AD patients treated in the outpatient and wards of the Department of Neurology,Fuxing Hospital,Capital Medical University from June 2012 to November 2013 were enrolled retrospectively. They were enrolled in either a SIVD group or an AD group. Fifty healthy subjects in Yuetan community of Fuxing hospital were selected as a control group at the same period. The age,sex and education level of the subjects in the 3 groups were matched. The Mini-Mental State Examination( MMSE) and MES were used to measure all subjects and were compared;receiver operating characteristic curves was used to analyze the radio of memory and executive part for SIVD and AD discrimination. Results (1)There was no significant difference in total MMSE score between the SIVD group and the AD group(20. 6 ± 5. 5 vs. 20. 6 ± 3. 3;P>0. 05).(2)There were significant differences in each MES indexes among the patients of the 3 groups(all P>0. 05). The 1,3,4 and 5 scores for the sentence memory in the SIVD group were significantly higher than those of the AD group. There were significant differences(all P<0. 01). The indicators of executive part:the continuous action,instruction and action contradictory stimulation,knock and un-knock with finger scores of the SIVD group were all lower than those of the AD group(5. 1 ± 3. 1 vs. 7. 3 ± 2. 1, 5. 2 ± 3. 0 vs. 7. 7 ± 1. 9,3. 5 ± 4. 4 vs. 6. 2 ± 4. 3;all P<0. 01). The MES-R of the SIVD group was higher than that of the AD group(1. 2 ± 0. 7 vs. 0. 5 ± 0. 2;P>0. 05).(3)When MES-R was≥0. 7,the sensitivity and specificity of differentiating SIVD were 76. 7% and 83. 3%,and the total score of MMSE for differentiating the sensitivity and specificity of SIVD were 40. 0% and 0. 7%. Conclusion The differences of MES reflecting sentence memory and executive part may better distinguish the patients with SIVD and AD.
