Objective To observe the effects of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) on spasticity of biceps brachii after stroke. Methods 12 patients with spasticity of biceps brachii after stroke were divided into control group (n=6) and ESWT group (n=6). The ESWT group received a session of ESWT and the control group received placebo treatment. All patients were assessed before and immediately after treatment, including integrated electromyogram (iEMG) and co-contraction ratio during maximum isometric voluntary contraction (MIVC) of elbow extension with surface electromyography, the modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) and content of shoulder and elbow of Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA). Results The scores of MAS and FMA, the iEMG and the cocontraction ratio of biceps brachii improved in the ESWT group after the treatment (P<0.05), and improved more than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion ESWT can immediately relieve the spasticity of biceps brachii, inhibit the cocontraction of biceps brachii during elbow extension and improve the motor function of upper limb in patients post stroke.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility,effectiveness and safety of Carto3 three-dimensional electrophysiological mapping system in guiding radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT).Methods The clinical data of a total of 28 patients with PSVT (Carto group),who received RFA guided by Carto3 three-dimensional electrophysiological mapping system during the period from March 2015 to February 2016,were retrospectively collected.Other 36 parents with PSVT,who received fluoroscopy-guided RFA during the period from March 2014 to February 2015,were collected as control group.The X-ray irradiation time,success rate of operation,operation time,complication and recurrence rate were calculated and the results were compared between the two groups.Results The mean fluoroscopy time in Carto group was (2.6±2.3) min,which was significantly less than (15.8±9.5) min in the control group (P＜0.001),and among them zero X-ray irradiation was obtained in 8 patients who had atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT).The operation success rates of Carto group and the control group were 100％ (28/28) and 94.4％ (35/36) respectively (P＞0.05).The operation time in Carto group and the control group was (162.7±34.4) min and (149.4±46.2) min respectively (P＞0.05).In Carto group no any complications occurred,and in the control group one patient with AVNRT developed transient degree Ⅱ atrioventricular block during ablation process.All patients were followed up for 6 months,and no recurrence was observed in all patients of both groups.Conclusion For the treatment of PSVT,RFA guided by Carto3 three-dimensional electrophysiological mapping system is safe and effective,it can significantly reduce the X-ray irradiation time,even zero X-ray radiation in some AVNRT patients,meanwhile,this technique does not increase operation time and operation risk.

ObjectiveTo investigate the state of rehabilitation professionals in knowledge about chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods60 rehabilitation professionals had received a 3-hour education delivered by four pulmonary rehabilitation experts. The trainees were assessed by Bristol COPD Knowledge Questionnaire (BCKQ) after the course.ResultsThe score of BCKQ was from 42 to 80 while the average score was (60.00±9.33).ConclusionThe rehabilitation professionals' knowledge about COPD was poor.

Objective To evaluate the effect of Jatropha see soma japonicum so as to screen the optimum process and formulations. Methods The cercaria directly contacting tests with Jatro-pha seed oils extracted by 6 different extraction processes were carried out,and the mouse immediate contacting cercaria infection trials with different formulations of Jatropha seed oil and various additives were performed. Results With 95%ethanol,the ratio of material to liquid being 1∶8,and 2 h extraction,the oil extraction rate was 30.7%. The cercaria directly contacting tests showed that 6 kinds of Jatropha seed oil killed all cercaria within 30 min. In the mouse immediate contacting cercaria infection trials,the worm declined rate of Jatropha seed oil liquid was 70.97%,and the worm declined rate of the sample added with benzyl benzoate was 58.87%,and the worm declined rate of the sample added with laurocapram was 77.42%. The worm declined rate of the sam-ples added with benzyl benzoate,dibutyl phthalate and laurocapram was 100%. Conclusion The process with 95%ethanol,the ratio of material to liquid being 1∶8,and 2 h extraction is the optimum,and the Jatropha seed oil has a good killing schistosome cercaria effect.

Objective To evaluate the effects of community-based rehabilitation therapy on activitv of daily living performance of the Chinese stroke patients. Methods In a single blinded,randomized,controlled multicenter trial,737 consecutive stroke patients were stratified by two groups of cerebral infarction and hemorrhage. All the patients were randomly divided into a rehabilitation group and a control group.The patients in the rehabilitation group received atandardized community-based rehabilitation therapy,while those in the control group did not.All the patients were followed up for 5 months for evaluation of their performance with activity of daily living by using Modified Barthel Index before intervention,after follow-up 2 and 5 months,respectively. Results Patients in the rehabilitation group performed better in ADL as reflected by the Modified Barthel Index score than those in the control group after 5 months of intervention(P＜0.05).Although both the rehabilitation group and control group improved over time,the rehabilitation group showed a greater improvement with the Modified Barthel Index scores when compared with the control group(P＜0.01).After 5 months follow-up,the total gain of Modified Barthel Index scores was 26.28 and 32.89 for those with cerebral infarction and hemorrhage,respectively,in the rehabilitation group. In comparison,the gain of Modified Barthel Index scores was 7.65 and 2 1.70 for those with cerebral infarction and those with hemorrhage,respectively in the control group.This implies a difference in improvement of 1 8.63 in cerebral infarction group and 1 1.19 in hemorrhage group,in favor of the rehabilitation group. Conclusion Standardized community-based rehabilitation therapy may help stroke patients to improve their performance in activity of daily living significantly.

Allergy-related diseases are common and frequently-occurring in children. Its onset follows the sensitization transfer rule from skin allergy to respiratory allergy, which is called the natural process of allergic disease or atopic march. The relationship between intestinal microbiota and allergic diseases has been a hot topic in recent years. Immunoregulation and neuromodulation with the participation of intestinal microbiota are two important aspects that affect the development of allergic diseases. Therefore, in this paper, we systematically reviewed the interaction of bacteria-immune-neural network in atopic march from the perspective of multi-system sensitization, so as to open up new perspectives for the mechanism research and prevention of sensitization progress.

Traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage commonly presents in traumatic brain injury patients, and it may lead to complications such as meningitis, ventriculitis, brain abscess, subdural hematoma or tension pneumocephalus. When misdiagnosed or inappropriately treated, traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage may result in severe complications and may be life-threatening. Some traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage has concealed manifestations and is prone to misdiagnosis. Due to different sites and mechanisms of trauma and degree of cerebrospinal fluid leak, treatments for traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage varies greatly. Hence, the Craniocerebral Trauma Professional Group of Neurosurgery Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Neurological Injury Professional Group of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate the " Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage in adults ( version 2023)" based on existing clinical evidence and experience. The consensus consisted of 16 recommendations, covering the leakage diagnosis, localization, treatments, and intracranial infection prevention, so as to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage and improve the overall prognosis of the patients.
