BACKGROUND: Continuous passive motion assisted with diathermia will promote the restoration of joint movement of the extremities.OBJECTIVE: To improve joint movement with continuous motion assisted with diathermia after surgical treatment on simple fracture of upper or lower extremity.DESIGN: A randomized controlled trial.SETTING: Huaxi Hospital of Sichuan University.PARTICIPANTS: Eighty-four cases of simple extremity fracture treated in the Orthopedic Department of Huaxi Hospital of Sichuan University from October 2000 to July 2002 were included in this trial. Of them, 16 cases were elbow movement disorder and 68 were knee movement disorder. They were randomly assigned into two groups with 42 cases each.METHODS: The 42 cases in the treatment group were preheated before continuous passive motion while those in the control group just received continuous passive motion. The improvement of joint movement between thetwo groups were assessed and compared according to the joint movement scale.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The joint movement before and after treatment and the indices of joint movement scale in the two groups.RESULTS: All of the eighty-four cases entered the analysis. The joint movement in the treatment group was better than that in the control group [ (101.40 ± 25.76)° vs (86.14 ± 27.66)°, t = 5.25, P ＜ 0.01 ]. The index of joint movement scale in the treatment group was also higher than that of the control group[ (84.32 ± 16.54) vs(64. 89 ± 13.76) ] ( t = 4.24, P ＜ 0.01 ) ].CONCLUSION: Continuous passive motion assisted with diathermia is better than simple continuous passive motion in improving the joint movement and function of elbow and knee.

Objective To evaluate whether glucose is associated with thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow before primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods Pre-operation blood glucose level, TIMI flow and baseline characteristics of 120 consecutive acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients treated with primary PCI were analyzed. Hyperglycemia was defined as whole blood glucose ≥7.8 mmol/L (140 mg/dL). Results Only 18 patients (15%) had TIMI 3 flow before primary PCI and hyperglycemia was observed in 87 patients (72.5%). TIMI grade 3 flow were more commonly found in the normoglycemia group compared with the hyperglycemia group before primary PCI (27.3% vs 10.3%,P

Objective To explore effect of rehabilitation training on deglutition disorders of children with cerebral palsy . Methods Twenty-seven children patients from January to June in 2013 were set as control group and thirty-one patients from July 2013 to January 2014 as experiment group. The children in the control group were treated with tube-feeding combined with spoon feeding and bottle-feeding by professional nurse. Children in the experiment group were treated with oral rehabilitation training by professional therapists and nurses apart from the same feeding as in the control group. The two groups were compared in terms of effect of deglutition within 4 weeks, time and rate of removing the stomach tube. Results The recovery of deglutition function in the experiment group was much better than that in the control group , the total effective rate and rate of removing the stomach tube within 3 months were higher and the intubation duration was significantly lower as compared with those of the control group (P < 0.01). Conclusion Rehabilitation training can improve the recovery of deglutition disorders, improve active feeding ability of children with cerebral palsy, shorten time of tube feeding and improve their life quality.

AIM: To study the effects of theasinesin(TS) on proliferation and apoptosis of murine lymphocytes. METHODS: MTT method was employed to investigate the proliferatory response of murine splenocytes. Cellular morphological observation, DNA agarose gel electrophoresis and flow cytometry analysis were used to study the effects of TS on apoptosis of murine thymocyte and splenocyte. RESULTS: 50,150 and 500 mg?L -1 TS could markedly promote ConA-induced splenocyte proliferation in mice. In the cellular morphologic observation and DNA biochemical analysis, murine thymocytes cultured for 20 h in vitro showed keryopyk-nosis, condensation of cell, typical "ladder" on gel electrophoresis and typical apoptotic peak (AP) by FACS analysis. After treatment with 50, 150 and 500 mg?L -1 TS , DNA ladder and apoptotic peak were decreased gradually and apoptotic rates were reduced to 12.14%, 9.49%, 6.71% respectively from 19.87% in control group. But the apoptosis of murine splenocytes induced by 10 -5 mol?L -1 DEX was not affected by TS. CONCLUSION: TS can significantly promote splenocyte proliferation in mice and has an inhibitory effect on spontaneous apoptosis of murine thymocytes.

This study examined the relationship between PDGF-induced proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and Nur77 expression and the effect of atorvastatin on VSMC proliferation and Nur77 in PDGF-treated VSMCs. Rat VSMCs were isolated and cultured. After incubation with atorvastatin or Nur77 siRNA, the cells were stimulated with PDGF and detected for BrdU incorporation to measure the proliferation of the VSMCs. Quantitative PCR and Western blotting were used to determine the Nur77 protein and the CREB phosphorylation level, to observe their relations with PDGF-induced VSMC proliferation. Our results showed that PDGF increased the BrdU incorporation in VSMCs, suggesting that it induced the proliferation of the cells. The VSMC proliferation was associated with increased Nur77 expression and elevated CREB phosphorylation. Atorvastatin inhibited the PDGF-induced VSMC proliferation, suppressed Nur77 expression. After silencing of Nur77 gene, the PDGF-induced VSMC proliferation was decreased. It was concluded that PDGF-induced VSMC proliferation was related to the Nur77 expression and CREB phosphorylation. Atorvastatin reduced the Nur77 expression and, at the same time, inhibited the VSMC proliferation.

Objective To explore the role of type Ⅶ collagen (COL7A1) gene in the pathogenesis of pretibial dominant dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DDEB-Pt).Methods Peripheral blood samples were obtained from a sporadic Chinese patient of Han nationality with DDEB-Pt,his parents and 100 healthy human controls.A modified salting-out method was used to extract genomic DNA from the blood samples,and PCR was performed to amplify 118 exons of the COL7A1 gene followed by DNA sequencing.Results A G→A mutation was identified at position 6109 (G6109A) in exon 78 of the COL7A1 gene in this patient,which caused a change from GCT to ACT at codon 2037 in the triple helix region,and resulted in the substitution of glycine (Gly) by arginine (Arg) (p.Gly2037Arg).Conclusion A novel glycine substitution mutation was identified in the COL7A1 gene in the patient with DDEB-Pt,which may be a pathogenic mutation.
