Chinese Journal of cardiovascular Rehabilitation Medicine 2017;26(4):437-441
Objective:To explore therapeutic effect of pharyngeal treatment machine (PTM) combined resuscitating acupuncture (RA) on patients with dysphagia after stroke.Methods: A total of 98 stroke patients with dysphagia were selected.According to random number table, they were randomly and equally divided into pure pharyngeal treatment group (received pure PTM therapy based on routine treatment) and combined treatment group (received RA based on pure pharyngeal treatment group).Video fluorography (VFG) score and swallow-quality of life (SWAL-QOL) score before and after treatment, and total effective rate were evaluated and compared between two groups.Results: Compared with before treatment, there was significant rise in VFG score, and significant reduction in SWAL-QOL score in both groups after treatment, P<0.01 all;compared with pure pharyngeal treatment group after treatment, there was significant rise in VFG score [(5.46±2.04) scores vs.(6.54±2.75) scores], and significant reduction in SWAL-QOL score [(741.33±25.92) scores vs.(632.54±26.77) scores] in combined treatment group, P=0.032, 0.001 respectively.Total effective rate of combined treatment group was significantly higher than that of pure pharyngeal treatment group (93.88% vs.75.51%), P=0.014.Conclusion: Compared with pure pharyngeal treatment machine, pharyngeal treatment machine combined resuscitating acupuncture possesses better therapeutic effect for recovery of swallowing function, which is worth extending.

Recombinant plasmids pHY-PA, pBBR-PA were constructed in which genes pdc and adhB were placed under the control of tac promoter, respectively, and had successfully expressed in Escherichia coli. Then these recombinant plasmids were electroporated into Lactobacillus strains for ethanol production. Preliminary ethanol fermentation using these Lactobacillus strains and their recombinants was carried out using 42℃ as fermentation temperature. The results indicated that introducing pdc and adhB, ethanologenic pathway was successfully constructed in L.plantanum CICIM B0080. 0.4% (V/V) ethanol was detected at the end of fermentation with 6.7% glucose, and that is 67-fold as the wild-type B0080. Two-fold of ethanol production was detected in L.amylovorus B0112 (pHY-PA) and L.acidophilus B0068 (pBBR-PA). Introducing both pdc and adhB, and meanwhile knock-outing the lactate dehydrogrnase gene may better convert carbon flux to ethanologenic direction.

Objective To observe the effect of Kouchuangping oral liquid (KCP), which can clear away stomach-heat, purge fire, nourish yin, on golden yellow hamster aphtha that induced by PQ. Methods Inject PQ which can cause membrana mucosa ulceration in golden yellow hamster’s cheek pouch, observe the pathomorphological process of ulcerative lesion and antioxidation of three different KCP dosage teams. Result The KCP has the function of anti-inflammation and anti-exudation on ulcerative lesion, which can relieve epithelium necrosis and promote the recovery of ulceration. It also can increase the vigor of SOD in serum and degrade the content of MDA. Conclusion KCP has the functions of antioxidation and eliminate oxydic and metabolic products.

Objective To investigate the significance of serum IP-10 levels in different types of diabetic patients. Methods Serum IP-10 level in 78 cases with type 1 diabetes,49 cases with type 2 diabetes and 33 cases of healthy controls was measured with ELISA assays. Type 1 diabetic patients were divided into classic type 1 diabetes (n=39) and latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA,n=39) according to their disease process,and they were also divided into autoimmune type 1 diabetes (n=58) and idiopathic type 1 diabetes (n=20).Type 2 diabetic patients,according to carotid intima-media thickness (IMT),were divided into patients with (n=24) or without atherosclerosis (n=25). Results 1) Serum IP-10 levels were not statistically different among type 1 diabetes,type 2 diabetes and healthy controls. 2) Serum IP-10 concentrations in autoimmune type 1 diabetes with positive islet autoantibody were higher than those in healthy controls(184.96?104.48pg/ml vs 146.10?74.61pg/ml,P=0.03);while there were no difference in type 1 diabetes with variable disease durations. 3) No difference in IP-10 levels was found between type 2 patients with(173.5?69.6pg/ml) and without atherosclerosis (188.5?79.7 pg/ml). Conclusions Serum IP-10 level is augmented in autoimmune type 1 diabetes.

Objective To develop a new vascular heat transfer model in the neck to analyze temperature field affected by vertebral artery. Methods With numerical simulation based on the experimental dimension data, a new model along the axial temperature distributions of blood vessels of neck was established as neck surface under normal temperature condition and during hypothermia therapy. In addition, the results were compared with those based on conventional models without vertebral arteries considered. Results It was showed that vertebral arteries played an essential role in the process of transporting blood to the brain, and it was more effective to cool the vertebral arterial blood than any other major cervical arteries in order to cool the blood before entering the Circle of Willis. Conclusion All the results obtained in this study may offer some theoretical supports to the medical proposal to cool down the brain by hypothermia therapy, for example, by covering the head and neck with ice helmet.

Objective To discuss the X-knife radiosurgery (XKS) in the treatment of brain metastasis of lung carcinoma. Methods A total of 100 patients with similar prognostic factors were divided into two groups with 50 patients in each group, receiving either whole-brain radiotherapy alone (30~40 Gy/3~4 weeks) (Radiotherapy Group) or XKS combined with radiotherapy (Combination Group). In the Combination Group, 27 patients received XKS with single fraction of radiation, with a median prescription dose of 14.2 Gy, and the other 23 patients received multiple fractions of radiation (5~10 Gy/f, 3 times weekly), with a total dose of 15~30 Gy. Results In the Combination Group and the Radiotherapy Group, the median survival time was 16.4 and 10 months, respectively (P=0.0064), the 2-year local tumor control rate was 88% (44/50) and 44% (22/50), respectively (?2=21.569,P=0.000), and the effective rate under CT or MRI scanning at 1~3 months after treatment was 87.5% (35/40) and 52.2% (24/46), respectively (?2=16.497,P=0.001). An analysis on the cause of death showed that 11.9% of patients (5/42) in the Combination Group died from brain metastasis, which was significantly lower than that in the Radiotherapy Group (55.6%, 25/45) (?2=25.908,P=0.000). The incidence of complications was not significantly different between the Combination Group (8%, 4/50) and the Radiotherapy Group (4%, 2/50) (?2=0.709,P=0.400). Conclusions Combined use of X-knife radiosurgery and routine radiotherapy has better therapeutic effects than radiotherapy alone for treating brain metastatic tumor.
