1.Clinical Study on Treatment of Vascular Dementia with Scalp Acupuncture
Journal of Acupuncture and Tuina Science 2008;6(1):24-26
Objective: To explore a treatment method for vascular dementia. Methods: Sixty patients were randomly allocated into two groups. The observation group was treated with long-term needle-retaining method of scalp acupuncture and the control group was treated by medications. Evaluation was made respectively before and after the treatment by means of Hasegawa dementia scale (HDS), neurological function deficit (NFD) score and main symptom (MS) score. Results: There were statistically significant differences in HDS, NFD score and MS score in both groups (PO.01) before and after the treatment. There were statistically significant differences in HDS, NFD score and MS score between the two groups (P<0.05) before and after the treatment. The total effective rate was 86.8% in the observation group and 80.0% in the control group. There was a statistically significant difference in the effects between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion: This long-term needle-retaining method of scalp acupuncture is precisely effective for vascular dementia.

Objective To summarize the nursing experience for patients with filtering bleb infection after glaucoma filtering surgery. Methods We introduced the following nursing interventions such as accurate and prompt use of atropine eyedrop according to medical orders, local and intravenous administration of antibiotics and glucocorticoid, reasonable arrangement of medication, close monitoring of patients condition and reaction to treatment. In the same time we also supplied psychological nursing and health education. Results After intervention the symptoms disappeared and inflammation was under control, the filtering bleb became clear and anterior chamber exudation was absorbed, the visual acuity improved in 7 patients with 1 exception. The infection diffused and developed to endophthalmitis in this patient resulting in excavation of eyeball because of delaying hospital admission. Conclusion The keys to prevent filtering bleb infection were accurate, prompt and reasonable arrangement of medication according to medical orders and just-in-time adoption of nursing measures.

Objective To explore the perioperative nursing care of cooled radiofrequency for refractory craniofacial postherpetic neuralgia.Methods 13 refractory craniofacial postherpetic neuralgia patients were reviewed. Results Visual analogue score significantly decreasedafter the treatment (P<0.01), and severe dropsy after treatment was relieved in 2~3 weeks. Conclusion The cooled radiofrequency iseffective on refractory craniofacial postherpetic neuralgia, while the perioperative nursing care was safe, feasible, and worthy for more application.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy and side effect of regional blockade using diprospan combined with oxycodone and acetaminophen taking orally which called balanced analgesia on severe tension-type headache. Methods 32 patients diagnosed as severe tension-type headache were treated with regional blockade using diprospan mixed with 0.4% lidocaine, combined with oxycodone and acetaminophen. The severity of pain (using numeric rating scales, NRS) and the duration of headache were observed and the side effects were recorded. Results There was a significant decrease in the severity of pain and the duration of headache after treatment compared with those before (P<0.01). No serious side effects were observed. Conclusion The balanced analgesia therapy mainly including regional blockade and oxycodone and acetaminophen can be significantly effective on the severe tension-type headache.

Aim To study the protective effect and mechanism of geniposide on human umbilical vein endothelial cell(HUVEC) injury induced by H2O2.Methods The injured model was established by HUVEC treated with H2O2.HUVECs were cultured in vitro and divided into five groups:control group,H2O2 group and geniposide with different concentrations plus H2O2 group respectively.HUVECs were incubated with 400 ?mol?L-1 H2O2 for 12 hours in the absence or presence of various concentrations of geniposide pre-incubation.Survival rate of HUVECs was determined by tetrazolium assay.The intracellular activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px),total nitric oxide synthase(NOS) and extracellular nitric oxide(NO) level were detected.The intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS) level and the apoptotic index and cell cycle alteration were detected by flow cytometry.Results Geniposide concentration-dependently increased the viability of injured endotheial cells,while increased the activity of SOD,GSH-Px,NOS and NO production.The intracellular ROS level and the apoptotic index were reduced by geniposide.The cell proliferation was increased with geniposide incubation.Conclusion Geniposid may be a potential anti-oxidation agent which has a protective effect against HUVEC injuries induced by H2O2.
