Moyamoya disease is a chronic progressive cerebrovascular disease. It got its nickname, the moyamoya disease, because the image of abnormal blood vascular net at the skull base in the encephaloangiography of such patients is very similar to smog. The moyamoya disease can be divided into two types: ischemic and hemorrhagic according to its clinical manifestations and imaging characteristics. In the ischemic type of moyamoya disease, when the blood vascular lumens are not narrow enough to completely block the blood flow, the chief manifestation is the cerebral blood circulation insufficiency; when the salvage is not in time, the disease will further progress to develop vascular obstruction or thrombosis, resulting in cerebral infarction, finally hemiplegia, aphasia, etc. irreversible symptoms and signs occur. In the primary hospital, the first choice for treatment of acute cerebral infarction (ACI) is drug thrombolysis. However, the main treatment for moyamoya disease with ACI is chiefly revascularization. This article reported a patient with moyamoya disease and ACI successfully treated by intravenous reteplase for thrombolysis in People's Hospital of Pucheng County.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of ultrasonic elastography and fine flow imaging in differential diagnosis of cervical lymph nodes.Methods Totally 87 lymph nodes were examined with ultrasonic elastography,fine flow and conventional ultrasonography.The results were confirmed with postoperative pathology or fine-needle biopsy as well as follow-up.Using consistency check of Kappa and ROC curve to analyse the accuracy of three types of ultrasonic examination.Results Taking the results of postoperative pathology or fine-needle biopsy as well as follow-up as golden standards,the Kappa value of conventional ultrasonography was poor (Kappa =0.153,P =0.078),fine flow was moderate (Kappa =0.526,P ＜0.01) and ultrasonic elastography was better (Kappa =0.741,P ＜0.01).The area under ROC of ultrasonic elastography,fine flow and conventional ultrasonography was 0.899 (P ＜0.01),0.787 (P ＜0.01) and 0.568 (P =0.241),respectively.Conclusions Ultrasonic elastography is more valuable to differentiate malignant from benign lymph nodes.

0.05). Conclusion: RVPI and RSVPI of can be used as a measure to assess VPF and speech articulation of CP patients after operation.

Objective To investigate the effect of education in pregnant women’s school on primipara mode of delivery and puerperal behavior.Methods Two hundred and twenty cases who delivered in our hospital and paid postpartum visits were divided into observation group and control group equally according to whether they had attended the pregnant women’s school.The observation group included those having attended the school and the control those who had not.The two groups were compared in terms of primipara mode of delivery and puerperal behavior.Results The rates of maternal vaginal delivery and cesarean section rate in observation group were 71.8%and 28.2%,both significantly higher than those of the control group(52.7%and 47.3%)(P<0.01).The rate of caesarean section due to social factors in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).Besides,the observation group had higher rates of puerperiumal shampoo, showering, eating vegetables and fruits,brushing,use of air-conditioners than the control group did(all P<0.01).Conclusions Prenatal maternal health education in the pregnant women’s school affects puerperous behavior.It suggests that prenatal parturients actively participate in related education on maternal health care,which can help establish a good pregnancy and puerperium maternal behavior,reduce maternal cesarean section and thus help them live through puerperium.

Objective To observe the effects of cyclic tensile strain (CTS) on in vitro expression of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) in rabbit chondrocytes of different ages.Methods Nine male New Zealand rabbits were grouped into juvenile (2 months), adult (8 months), and senior (31 months) groups. The bilateral knee joints were harvested using sterile technique from each rabbits. In each age group, rabbit articular chondrocytes were cultivated in vitro after randomization into a control group and a CTS group, with 6 specimens in each. In the next 3 days, CTS was applied (sin10％, 0. 5 Hz, 6 h/d) in the CTS group for 6 hours per day while no CTS was applied in the control group. After the first CTS treatment, the supernatant of cell culture was collected every 12 hours from each specimen in both groups to assess the GAG levels by Alcian blue assay.Results Expressions of GAG showed significant increases in both control and CTS groups in each age group ( P ＜ 0. 05) . Different age groups showed significant differences in the GAG secretion over different time points. Compared with the younger cells, the older ones showed the most significant difference in growth between the control and CTS groups at 12 hours, though the older cells produced less GAG than the younger ones in both groups at the end of the experiment (72 hours).Conclusions CTS can stimulate rabbit chondrocytes of different ages to secrete more GAG, and younger cells tend to produce more GAG than the older ones.

Conclusion The developed method is simple with lower cost, by which loganin and morroniside can be used as reference substances for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of Chinese herbal medicine.

BACKGROUND: Microglia play an important role in immune surveillance in their quiescent state, but the role of the activated microglia is under discussion. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the mechanism of activated microglia in acute cerebral infarction. METHODS: Totally 96 male Kunming mice were selected and randomly divided into four groups, including transplantation, placebo, blank control and sham operation groups. Permanent occlusion of the middle cerebral artery was performed using suture method in the mice of the transplantation, placebo and blank control groups, followed by injection of microglia suspension via subclavian vein, medium containing the same volume of microglia, and nothing, respectively, at 12 hours after modeling. In the meanwhile, the same amount of microglia suspension was injected into the mice of the sham operation group. The Zea-longa scale and brain-derived neurotrophic factor expression at 12, 24 and 72 hours after modeling, the volume of cerebral infarction and the number of nerve cells positive for microtubule-associated protein-2 at 72 hours after modeling were detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The Zea-longa scale score was 0 point in the sham operation group, which was significantly lower than that in the other three groups at each time point after modeling (P < 0.01). The Zea-longa scores in the transplantation group were significantly lower than those in the placebo and blank control groups at 24 and 72 hours after transplantation (P < 0.01). The positive expression rate of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in the transplantation group was significantly higher than that in the other three groups after transplantation (P < 0.01). The sham group showed no infarction, while the size of cerebral infarction in the transplantation group was significantly lower than that in the placebo and blank control groups (P < 0.01), and the microtubule-associated protein-2 positive rate was significantly higher than that in the placebo and blank control groups (P < 0.01). These results manifest that the activated microglia can improve the survival rate of nerve cells, promote the recovery of cerebral nerve function and reduce the size of cerebral infarction.

Objective To investigate the relationship of gene transfection efficiency with different ultrasound exposure time and different dose of microhuhble,and to find the appropriate ultrasound parameters for gene transfection. Methods Plasmid encoding enhanced green fluorescent protein(pEGFP) was chosen as a report gene and HepG2 cells were chosen as research object. The HepG2 cells plus pEGFP and different dose of microbubble were exposed to ultrasound(1 MHz,0.5 W/cm2) with varying time. Twenty-four hours later, the expression of EGFP in the cells was observed by fluorescence microscope,the transfection efficiency was assessed by FACS and the cell viability was observed by trypan blue exclusion. Results The expression of EGFP in all experimental groups was different,and the approving transfection efficiency was got by ultrasound exposed for 20 s when the dose of microbubble was 60 μl. Conclusions With fixed ultrasound frequency and power, different transfection efficiency was got when the exposure time and dose of microbubble were different. The appropriate parameter was 20 s,60 μl, which can supply information for further study.
