Objective To investigate efficacy of citalopram on pathological crying after cerebral infarction.Methods 106 patients with pathological crying after cerebral infarction were randomly divided into two groups,treatment group(54 cases) and control group(52 cases).Control group received conventional treatment of cerebrovascular disease.Treatment group taken citalopraml0-20mg orally one time per day for three months based on conventional treatment.The total response rate,effectual time,and Hasegawa Dementia Scale (HDS) scores were compared between two groups after treatment.Results There were significant differences in total response rates (94.4％ and 38.5％,respectively),effectual time(1.98 ± 1.24 and 78 ± 17.95,respectively) and HDS(8.43 ±2.21 and 6.24 ±2.02,respectively) between treatment group and control group (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The study suggests that it is effective to treat pathological crying with citalopram and its effect is quick.Citalopram can not only control patient’s pathological crying,but also improve cognitive function.

Objective To characterize the clinical manifestations and to evaluate the value of the electrophysio-logical examination in patients with peripheral nerves injuries caused by neurobrucellosis. Methods Electrophysiology examination was conducted in 32 patients with peripheral nerve injuries caused by neurobrucellosis and 32 normal controls who had equivalent age and gender. The results were further statistically analyzed. Results There were sig-nificant difference between patients and healthy control group in distal motor latency (DML), compound motor active potentials (CMAP) amplitude, motor nerve conduction velocity (MCV), sensory nerve action potential latency(SL),senso-ry nerve action potential (SNAP) amplitude and sensory nerve conduction velocity (SCV) ( P﹤0.05). Electrophysiology examination revealed peripheral nerve damage of limbs involving, both sensory nerve and motor nerves, of which sen-sory and motor nerve injuries accounted for 55.47% and 16.80%, respectively. Median and sural nerve injuries were most frequently affected in upper (64) and lower limbs (16). Motor and sensory nerve conduction velocity was delayed in 43 nerves (16.80%) of 256 examined motor nerves and in 142 nerves (55.47%) of 256 examined sensory nerves. The damage of the sensory nerves was more severe than those of the motor nerves and damage of nerves in the upper limbs was more severe than those in the lower limbs. Conclusion Electrophysiologoical examination provides objective basis for the diagnosis of peripheral nerve injuries in neurobrucellosis.

Objective To explore a new way assisted by digital technology to establish a quantitative index to assess the matching performance of anatomically contoured plate. Methods We collected the thin-slice CT data of 20 adults with normal tibias who had received 32-slice spiral CT scanning from April 2015 to June 2016. They were 10 males and 10 females, aged from 28 to 52 years (average, 36.2 years). 3D reconstruction of the tibias was performed with Mimics 18.0. Two brands of 8-hole anatomically contoured plate for distal tibia (Kongli versus GE) were digitized. The curve of the plate facing the bone surface was extracted. The operational process of putting the plate curve on the medial surface of the distal tibia was simulated in Rhino 5.0. The volume of the gap between plate curve and bone surface was measured. The mean distance of the gap between plate cure and bone surface was figured out after the volume divided by the plate area. The inverse value of the mean distance of the gap was used as the index for matching performance. The wall thickness analyzing tool in 3-matic Research was used to mark the various thicknesses of the gap with different colors. The matching performances of the 2 brands of plate were assessed and compared according to the matching performance index and nephogram. Results Of the Kongli 8-hole distal tibial plate, the gap volume was 3,834 mm3± 701 mm3, the mean thickness 1.8 mm ± 0.3 mm, and the matching index 0.56 ± 0.10. Of the GE 8-hole tibial plate, the gap volume was 7,690 mm3± 1,503 mm3, the mean thickness 3.0 mm ± 0.6 mm, and the matching index 0.34 ± 0.06. The significant difference in matching performance between the 2 kinds of plate favored the Kongli plate (t=10.402, P <0.01). There were no significant differences in matching per-formance between different genders among the plates of the same brand (P> 0.05). The nephogram showed a large fixed red area at the proximal part in the GE 8-hole tibial plate. Conclusions As this index for matching performance is simple and intuitive, it can be used to assess and compare the matching performances between different kinds of plates. It can be also used before operation to assess the matching performance of a specific plate for a specific patient to avoid mismatch because of individual differences.

Objective To explore the progress and prospect of preventive, predictive, personalized and participatory (4P) medicine in China in order to promote the ^“4P^” medicine and provide reference for the government and medical institutions to strengthen health management. Methods An in-depth analysis and review of the ^“4P^” medical service model was conducted through literature review. The prospect of the future development of the ^“4P^” medicine was discussed. Results In recent years, with the advancement of human health concepts and the completion of the genome project, the human healthcare model has been gradually shifting to the ^“4P^” medical service model, namely preventive-predictive-personalized-participatory integrated medicine. It can be seen that modern medical model has been in the process of continuous transformation, which is more human-oriented and emphasizes people^’s initiative. Conclusions With the widespread and understanding of the ^“4P^” medicine among healthcare workers, the value of the “4P” medicine in public health and clinical practice has been continuously proven.

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) can lead to lower back pain and may be even accompanied by scoliosis, neurological dysfunction and other complications, which will affect the daily activities and life quality of patients. Vertebral augmentation is an effective treatment method for OVCF, but it cannot correct unbalance of bone metabolism or improve the osteoporotic status, causing complications like lower back pain, limited spinal activities and vertebral refracture. The post-operative systematic and standardized rehabilitation treatments can improve curative effect and therapeutic efficacy of anti-osteoporosis, reduce risk of vertebral refracture, increase patient compliance and improve quality of life. Since there still lack relevant clinical treatment guidelines for postoperative rehabilitation treatments following vertebral augmentation for OVCF, the current treatments are varied with uneven therapeutic effect. In order to standardize the postoperative rehabilitation treatment, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized relevant experts to refer to relevant literature and develop the "Guideline for postoperative rehabilitation treatment following vertebral augmentation for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (2022 version)" based on the clinical guidelines published by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) as well as on the principles of scientificity, practicality and advancement. The guideline provided evidence-based recommendations on 10 important issues related to postoperative rehabilitation treatments of OVCF.
