Objective To explore the effects of upper limb robot-assisted therapy on motor recovery in acute stroke patients. Methods From August, 2013 to September, 2014, 46 acute stroke patients at their first-ever stroke were enrolled and randomized into experimental group and control group with 23 cases in each group. Both groups received routine therapy. Additional robot-assisted therapy was provided to the experimental group, and additional repetitive movement training was provided to the control group, 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week for 12 weeks. Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Limb (FM-UL), modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) and modified Barthel index (MBI) were used to assess the motor function of the upper limbs and hands, the muscular tension of elbow, and activities of daily living (ADL) before and after treatment. Results After treatment, the scores of FM-UA, MAS and MBI improved in both groups (t>3.856, Z>1.889, P<0.05), and the scores of FM-UA and MAS were better in the experiment group than in the control group (t=-2.386, Z=-2.625, P<0.05), however, there was no significant difference in the score of MBI between two groups (t=-1.326, P=0.098). Conclusion Upper limb robot-assisted therapy can facilitate the recovery of the motor function of upper limbs in acute stroke patient.

Objective To investigate in evaluation of various capacity requirement of probationer nurs-ing students by nurses in operation room in order to improve clinical teaching work. Methods A self-de-signed questionnaire was applied, 191 qualified teaching nurses from nine grade three A general hospitals in Beijing were invited to fdl the questionaires. The results underwent subsequent analysis. Results The teach-ers had high expectations for various capacity of the probationer nursing students. Conclusions Clinical teachers should establish feasible teaching scheme according to the existing teaching syllabus in order to in-crease teaching quality, make students gain new insights through reviewing old materials, so that they can mas-ter various technique in operation room in short time.

A novel hemiacetal, citrinacetal (1) was isolated from a marine-derived fungus Penicillium citrinum by column chromatography on silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 and semi-preparative HPLC. Its structure and stereochemistry was established on the basis of HR-ESI-MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic methods. The NMR spectrum showed this compound exists in solution as a mixture of two stereoisomers. The cytotoxic effect of compound 1 was evaluated in A-549, HL-60, HeLa, and K562 cancer cell lines. However, compound 1 only displayed weak cytotoxic activity on HL-60 cell, with IC50 value 77.4 micromol x L(-1).

Objective To study the fecel-oral and blood transfusion of TT virus. Methods Paired feces and serum samples from 6 patients with type B and/or C hepatitis were tested for TTV DNA and its titers by PCR with seminested primers.Genotypes were determined after their sequences were compared with the original N22 and TA278 clone.Results TTV DNA was detected in sera from all patients,while it was detected in feces from 3 patients,including 2 with high viral titers in serum.The detection of fecal TTV DNA was dependent on the viral titers in serum.TTV isolates in 3 pairs of feces and serum had identical sequence of 222 base pairs.Their genotypes were 1a,1b and 2,respectively.Conclusion The excretion of TTV into feces indicates that TTV would be transmitted not only parenterally but also nonparenterally by a fecal-oral route.

Objective To explore the role of ureteroacopy for acute upper urinary tract obstructive anuria.Methods Clinical data of 37 cases with acute upper urinary tract obstructive anuria were analyzed.Results Among 37 cases,34 cases were successfully performed ureteroseopy or ureteroseopic lithotripsy with double-J sent incubation (successful rate was 91.9%).Renal function were recovery in 32 cases.4 Cases returned to 180μmol/L,1 case need hemodialysis periodically.Conclusion Ureteroscopy could rapidly remove the obstruction and protect renal function in management of acute upper urinary tract obstruction anuria,which was contributed to the diagnosis.It was safe,effective and the preferred method.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the cytotoxicity of the nickel ion and provide with basic data for the biological evaluation of those medical devices containing nickel. Seven cell lines were chosen. They were L929, h9c2(2-1), 293[HEK-293], hFOB1.19, THLE-3, H9 and IM-9 respectively. According to the principle of biological evaluation of medical devices, MTT method was chosen to test the cytotoxicity in different concentrations of nickel ion. For each cell line, the relative growth rate (RGR) was obtained and the cytotoxic grade was classified. Besides, IC50 values were calculated. As a result, it was found that the sensitivity was different among all cell lines. H9 was the most sensitive one, while the L929 was the most tolerant one. The concentration which is not above 1.25 mg/L was safe for all seven cell lines, because the cytotoxicity for all cells exposed in this concentration were not higher than grade 1. According to the criteria for medical devices, the concentrations not above 5 mg/L were safe for L929 cells. This result helps us to roughly assess the cytotoxicity and systematic toxicity caused by nickel contained in medical devices.
