Objective To observe the effect of electric-impulse stimulation to Jiaji points (EX-B2) on spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods Totally 126 eligible SCI patients were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 63 cases in each group. The control group was intervened by conventional rehabilitation training plus acupuncture, while based on which the treatment group additionally received electric-impulse stimulation to Jiaji points (EX-B2). The spasticity, function, and activities of daily living (ADL) were evaluated 90 d later. Results The spasticity score was significantly changed after intervention in the treatment group(P＜0.01). Tendon reflex and spasticity score were significantly changed in the control group (P＜0.01). After intervention, there was a significant difference between the two groups in comparing spasticity score (P＜0.01). The changes of motor function and sensory function scores in the treatment group were significantly different from that in the control group (P＜0.01, P＜0.05). The Barthel Index (BI) scores were significantly changed in both groups after intervention (P＜0.05). There was a significant difference in comparing the BI score between the two groups after intervention (P＜0.05). Conclusion Electric-impulse stimulation to Jiaji (EX-B2) plus conventional rehabilitation training can significantly improve spasticity, and the motor and sensory functions, and promote the recovery of activities of daily living.

Objective To observe the curative effect of Jiawei-Haiqi pill on senile osteoporosis. Methods 124 patients in Shantou hospital of Traditional Chinese orthopedics were gathered from May 2010 to December 2012 in accordance with the criterion of diagnosis of senile osteoporosis. The 124 patients were divided into 2 groups randomly according to their case number. Sixty cases in the study group were treated with Jiawei-Haiqi pill, 6 gram per time once a day.

BACKGROUND:To in vitro isolate neural stem cel s with high purity and uniform biological properties and to establish a complete set of neural stem cel culture system is the basis for neural stem cel research.
OBJECTIVE:To establish an isolation and culture system for neural stem cel s from newborn mouse hippocampus, olfactory bulb and cortex and to analyze the biological properties of cel s.
METHODS:Neural stem cel s were isolated from the hippocampus, olfactory bulb and cortex tissue of newborn Kunming mice by mechanical separation and trypsin digestion. Serum-free culture technology, mechanical pipetting and trypsin digestion were used for subculture of neural stem cel s. 10%fetal bovine serum was used to induce differentiation of neural stem cel s. Neural stem cel s and their differentiated products were identified by
immunofluorescent staining of Nestin, CD133,β-TubulinIII, glial fibril ary acidic protein.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The neural stem cel obtained from newborn mouse hippocampus, olfactory bulb and cortex had the capacity of self-renewal and differentiation which were positive for Nestin and CD133. After induction with fetal bovine serum, neural stem cel could differentiation toβ-tubulinIII or glial fibril ary acidic protein positive cel s that were neurons and astrocytes. This experiment has successful y established the neural stem cel isolation, culture, identification and induction system, providing experimental basis for subsequent studies of neural stem cel s.

PurposeThe monitor of organ microcirculation is significant in the diagnosis and treatment of hemorrhagic shock (HS). We established an HS experimental model and evaluated it by contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), which aimed to evaluate the value of CEUS and time-intensity curve (TIC) in quantitative analysis of renal cortical microcirculation.Materials and Methods The experimental models of HS were established in 30 healthy New Zealand white rabbits by controlled exsanguinations and were divided into four groups according to the shock grade: normal (100% MAP), mild (70% MAP), moderate (50% MAP) and severe (40% MAP). The right kidneys of the experimental model were examined by CEUS. The corresponding parameters of the TIC such as arrival time (AT), time to peak (TTP), peak intensity (PI) and area under the curve (AUC) were measured with the TIC analysis software package when the region of interest was set in superficial of renal cortex.Results The model of HS were successfully established with 30 healthy New Zealand rabbits. Twenty-seven healthy New Zealand rabbits were alive at the end of the experiment, and three died of severe shock. The TIC rose steeply and reached the peak quickly, and then declined slowly to the baseline, which reflected the transition of microbubble in the region of interest. As the hemorrhagic shock model progressed from normal to mild, PI and AUC gradually decreased and the differences were significant (P<0.05); no significant changes were found in AT and TTP (P>0.05). AT and TTP gradually prolonged compared with normal and mild shock groups, and the differences were significant (P<0.05).Conclusion CEUS and TIC can quickly and accurately assess the renal perfusion changes of acute hemorrhagic shock model of animals in a quantitative way. It can be used as a new noninvasive monitoring tool in quantitative analysis of renal cortical microcirculation.
