Objective To observe neurobehavior and pathological changes of spinal cord injury (SCI) model in adult rats.Methods The Basso Beattie Bresnahan (BBB) scoring,histological and immunohistochemical changes after SCI were observed by means of self-designed spinal cord injurying device controlled by electrocircuit.Results From the 3rd day(1.0 ± 0.7),the BBB score of injured group began to increase (increased to 4.2 ± 1.3significantly at 7th day,and at the 28th day was 7.2 ± 1.3),and the hind limb could not support the body weight.Degeneration,necrosis of lots of neurons and glial cells proliferation could be observed obviously in spinal cord injured group.Immunohistochemical experiments showed that the grey level began to decrease 2nd hour after injury,went down the minimum at the 1st day,then 3rd day recovered,and at 28 th day was still lower than that of sham group.The glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunostaining positive cells area was gradually increased from 3rd day,reached the apex in the 14 th day,then decreased in the 28 th day.The changes of neuron specific enolase (NSE),neurofilament protein 200 (NF200) and GFAP had a close relationship with BBB score (r =0.856,0.856,0.795 respectively,P＜0.01).Conclusion The changes of NSE,NF200,GFAP after spinal cord injury reflect the characteristic of pathological change,which have a close relationship with functional recovery.

Objective To study the effect of bird's nest nursing on the vital signs,gastroenteric function,body weight and growth of premature infants.Methods 456 cases of premature infants were divided into the warm box group and the bird's nest group randomly according to odd and even number of birth,namely 228 cases in each group.The warm box group adopted routine nursing care.The bird's nest group adopted routine nursing care and bird's nest nursing in the mean time,namely the bird's nest wag put into the warm box,the premature infants slept in the pre-heated bird's nest.The condition of the two groups Was compared.Results On the first day of birth,there were no statistical difference(P＞0.05)between the two groups in respiration,heart rate,milk amount and body weight.On the seventh and fourteenth day,respiration and heart rate were stable and milk amount and body weight increased rapidly in bird's nest group.There Was statistical difference(P＜0.05)between the two groups.In bird's nest group,the premature had long sleeping time and body temperature-fluctuation was reduced.There was statistical differencere(P＜0.01)between the two groups.Conclusions After the bird's nest was used in premature care,diseases were recovered rapidly,hospitalization days were shortened and it was beneficial to the development of intelligence and body and mind of the premature infants.

Objective To investigate the accuracy of real-time continuous glucose monitoring(RT-CGM)system in the type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM). Methods A total of 318 subjects hospitalized between 2013 May to 2014 August were recruited. Each subject received a RT-CGM system. In order to calibrate the interstitial glucose level, finger-stick blood glucose were measured at least four times every day. Patients were divided into three groups according to their finger-stick blood glucose level:≤6.99 mmol/L, 7.0-10.0 mmol/L and≥10.01 mmol/L. Pearson correlation was used to analyze the relationship between the finger-stick glucose and interstitial glucose gained from RT-CGM. Clarke error grid analysis was used to analyze the accuracy of RT-CGM. Results (1)A total of 2, 815 glucose meter values from finger-stick were com?paired with glucose from RT-CGM. A positive relationship(r=0.847)were found between CGM and finger-stick blood glu?cose. The correlation was closer with higher finger-stick blood glucose levels(r=0.457, 0.648 and 0.852 respectively in≤6.99 mmol/L group, 7.0-10.0 mmol/L group and≥10.01 mmol/L group. P<0.001).(2)The Clarke error grid analysis re?vealed that 76.69%of the readings from RT-CGM were clinical perfect (zone A), 20.28%were acceptable (zone B), 3.03%were unacceptable (zone C-E). Clinical perfect rate was lower when the finger-stick glucose≤6.99 mmol/L , compared with that when it is between 7.0-10.0 or≥10.01 mmol/L group(73.12%vs 78.63%&79.28%,P<0.05), there was no significant difference between group of 7.0-10.0 mmol/L with group≥10.01 mmol/L (P>0.05). Conclusion RT-CGM provides accu?rate blood glucose values to guide the treatment of diabetes, and the accuracy is more reliable in high glucose environment.

This study was aimed to discuss the relations between relieving depression and benefit findings for advanced cancer patients.A total of 80 advanced cancer patients with the anxiety / depression assessment of more than 7 points and less than 15 points,were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group,in comprehensive hospitals.Finally,76 cases were included with 39 cases in the intervention group,and 37 cases in the control group.The progressive muscle relaxation training (PMRT) was used in the control group.Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) special technique (i.e.,TCM five-element musicotherapy plus PMRT) was used in the intervention group.The reduced fraction of the Benefit Finding Scale (BFS) and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) were used in the effect evaluation after 8-week intervention.The results showed that after 8-week treatment,the reduced fractions of BFS and HADS in the intervention group were obviously higher than the control group with statistical significance.The variation tendencies of BFS and HADS in the intervention group were obviously higher than the control group with statistical significance.There were 8 individual values in BFS of the intervention group were higher than the control group with statistical significance.It was concluded that the benefit findings for advanced cancer patients were related to the application of TCM special techniques,can improve the levels of benefit findings among advanced cancer patients.It enriched and perfected the depression regulation plan of cancer patients by TCM special techniques.

Various sleep disorders are the most common group of non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD),which can also occur during the prodromal phase of PD.All types of sleep disturbances may be encountered in PD:insomnia,excessive daytime sleepiness,rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorders,restless legs syndrome and sleep-disordered breathing.Standardized management of PD patients with sleep disturbance will be beneficial to improve the overall quality of diagnosis,treatment and prognosis.More high-quality clinical trials need to be carried out in the future.

Objective To study the target setup margin and dose evaluation for cervical cancer patients with volume-modulated arc therapy in the off-line adaptive radiation therapy (off-line ART),Methods A total of fifty patients with cervical cancer were randomly divided into test group and control group.Cone beam CT scanning was performed twice a week,the setup errors in directions of LR,AP and CC were recorded in the whole treatment process.The target setup formula was used to calculate the new CTV-PTV setup margin.At the same time,the setup error was returned to planning isocenter (ISO).For the control group,the dose was recalculated on the basis of the original PTV after considering ISO shift.For the test group,the dose was also recalculated after the new extended boundary of the target.The dosimetric parameters of CTV and organs at risk (OAR) were evaluated between two groups after dose recalculation.Results According to the target setup formula,extended boundaries of CTV in the direction of LR,AP,CC were 0.45,0.46 and 0.82 cm,respectively.The test group increased in CTV with D100％ and D95％ (t =-8.16,-6.73,P ＜0.05) and decreased in femoral head with V40,V30 and D (t=3.14,-9.52,-7.48,P＜0.05) than the control group.The test group decreased in the pelvis with V34 and D than control group (t =10.14,-9.38,P ＜0.05).Conclusions The CTV-PTV setup margin and the dose of OAR were effectively reduced,and the coverage of target area was extended when the off-line ART technology was conducted in the volume-modulated arc therapy for cervical cancer.

Objective To evaluate the applicability of a modified U-shaped forearm flap for the repair of small-and medium-sized defects in the oral and maxillary areas to provide a reference for clinicians.Methods This study was re-viewed and approved by the Ethics Committee,and informed consent was obtained from the patients.Ten patients with small-and medium-sized defects in the oral and maxillary areas underwent surgical repair using modified U-shaped fore-arm flaps.There were 8 males and 2 females aged 43-72 years.The donor site was apposed primarily after harvesting the modified U-shaped forearm skin flap.The flaps ranged from 6 cm × 4 cm to 8 cm × 5 cm in size.Six months after the operation,hand movements(finger extension,fist clenching,wrist rotation upward and wrist rotation downward),the forearm donor site,hand sensations and the satisfaction score for the postoperative quality of the scar at the donor site were evaluated(0 to 10;0:very unattractive,10:very satisfactory).Results A total of 10 patients with modified U-shaped forearm flaps survived.One patient developed venous crisis 24 hours after surgery and survived after surgical ex-ploration.Delayed healing occurred at the donor site of the forearm in 1 patient,and the wounds at the donor site of the forearm in the other patients all healed in the first stage.One patient presented with dysesthesia in the hand 2 weeks af-ter surgery and recovered within 3 months.Six months after surgery,all patients had no limited hand movement and no paresthesia at the forearm donor site or hand.The patients were basically satisfied with the appearance of the donor site,and the average satisfaction score of the subjective questionnaire was 8.4 points.Conclusion Modified U-shaped fore-arm flaps can directly close forearm donor site wounds,which avoids surgical trauma to the secondary donor site and sig-nificantly reduces related complications.Modified U-shaped forearm flaps provide an alternative to conventional forearm flaps for the repair of small-and medium-sized defects in the oral and maxillary areas.

Objective:To explore the relationship between doing housework and gait speed(GS)in order to identify ways to maintain physical capability in elderly people.Methods:A nationwide cross-sectional survey was conducted from Jan.2011 to Dec.2011.Subjects in this survey, with a sample of 2 519 males and 2 541 females aged ≥60 years, came from six regions across the country and satisfactorily completed a GS test.A GS in the lower 20% of the reference population(<0.7 m/s)was used as the cut-off point to define slow GS(SGS). Housework was defined as activities such as house cleaning, shopping, cooking and taking care of grandchildren and a response of"often"(≥5 d/week)was considered as doing housework.Propensity Score Matching(PSM)was performed to select comparable sub-groups of the study population to evaluate the association between housework and GS.Results:There were 3 290 subjects(1 645 pairs)selected by PSM.Logistic regression analysis showed that doing housework was inversely associated with SGS, and housework activities reduced the risk of SGS by 60%( OR=0.40, 95% CI: 0.35-0.46, P<0.01). Conclusions:Elderly people who conduct housework often are more likely to maintain GS and therefore should be encouraged to engage in daily activities to help maintain adequate physical performance.

Objective: To evaluate the vitamin D nutritional status in Chinese women of child-bearing age by analyzing serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level in 2010-2012. Methods: Data were obtained from the China Nutrition and Health Survey in 2010-2012. Using cluster sampling and proportional stratified random sampling, 1 514 women of child-bearing age (18-44 years old) from 34 metropolis and 41 small and medium-sized cities were included in this study. Demographic information was collected by questionnaire and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration was determined by radioimmunoassay, in accordance with the 2010 Institute of Medicine of the National Academies standards. We compared differences in vitamin D levels, specifically serious deficiency, lack of deficiency, insufficiency, and excess. Results: The overall serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level of Chinese urban women of child-bearing age (P₅₀ (P₂₅-P₇₅)) was 20.1 (15.1-26.3) ng/ml; minorities had a significantly higher serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level of 22.0 (15.9-27.5) ng/ml compared with women of Han nationality (19.8 (14.9-26.2) ng/ml) (χ²=7.02, P=0.008). The proportions of women with serious deficiency, lack of deficiency, insufficiency, and excess vitamin D were 11.6% (n=175), 37.9% (n=574), 35.1% (n=531), and 0.3% (n=5), respectively. Only 15.1% (n=229) of women of child-bearing age had normal vitamin D nutritional status. No significant differences in vitamin D nutritional status were observed according to age, body mass index, city, nationality, educational level, marital status, or household income per capita (P>0.05). Conclusion Most Chinese urban women of child-bearing age have poor vitamin D levels and require vitamin D supplementation.
