Chinese Journal of Geriatrics 2001;0(01):-
Objective To investigate the effect of levodopa on Parkinson's disease rats induced by 6-OHDA lesioned in different degrees. Methods Each group of PD rats whose nigrostriatal had been previously lesioned unilaterally by 6-OHDA received levodopa or saline injections twice daily for three weeks. The rotational behavior, immunohistochemistry and GSH level were observed. Results The rotational behavior ameliorated levodopa was seen only in severely lesioned PD rat. The levels of GSH in striatum were upregulated by levodopa treatment in moderately and severely lesioned PD rats. The number of tyrosine hydroxylase immunorecative neurofibers in the striatum were increased in mildly and moderately lesioned PD rats received levodopa treatment. Conclusions Levodopa upregulates the level of GSH in the striatum in moderately and severely lesioned PD rats. Levodopa will be benefical to mildly and moderately lesioned PD rats and has neurotrophic effect to promote the recovery of TH immunoreactive neurofibers in the striatum.

Objective:To analyze the optimal application groups and influent factors of MMSE were studied. Methods:A total of 4921 old people aged 55 years and over were selected by means of randomized stratification cluster sampling from the urban and rural areas in Xi'an. The MMSE scores distribution and positive predictive values were analyzed among subjects of different ages and educational levels. Multiple stepwise regression method was used to evaluate significant variables. Results:MMSE scores showed a negative and cliff distributions for different ages, education levels, as well as for the whole sample. Moreover, these features were found to be most pronounced in relatively younger old subjects (less 70 years) with comparably higher educational levels (upper high school). Accordingly, the screening-out rates for dementia were higher among relatively older subjects with poor educational levels, when compared to younger and fairly well-educated subjects. Variables such as education, age, sex, hearing loss and daily functional abilities could significantly affect the MMSE score ( P

Aim To explore the antioxidation of pergolide on rat models of Parkinson disease and its mechanism. Methods Wistar rats were pretreated daily with pergolide(1.0 mg?kg -1,ip),pergolide combined with sulpiride(25 mg?kg -1) or sulpiride alone for 7 days, and then sacrificed by decapitation. The activity of SOD and GSH in striatum was determined. Unilateral Parkinsonian models were made in rest of the rats by stereotaxically injecting 6-OHDA. After two weeks, apomorphine (APO)-induced rotational behavior of each group was compared, and the concentrations of striatal dopamine (DA),dihydroxyphenyl acetic acid(DOPAC) and homovanilic acid(HVA) were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Result Administration of pergolide for 7 days significantly increased the act- ivities of SOD and GSH in the striatum (P

We reported one case of a patient with Sjögren's syndrome and dental implant. This patient was followed up for more than one year. The patient was diagnosed with Sjögren's syndrome for 5 years and treated with long-term corticosteroid. Four implant-tissue interface hydrophilic implants were placed on 15, 16, 44, and 46 of the mandibular and maxillary areas. After the surgery was completed, the patient was treated with oral antibiotic and "shenggu pills" to prevent infection and glucocorticoid to manage Sjögren's syndrome. Consequently, six implants were placed in other parts of the mandibular and maxillary areas. After more than one year of follow-up, the implants and prosthesis remained stable and had no complications. Cone beam CT reconstruction showed good implant-bone combination.

Objective To study the incidence,possible risk factors,and influence on patient outcomes of diaphragmatic dysfunction in patients after surgical treatment of type A aortic dissection using ultrasound.Methods Patients who received replacement of hemiarch or total arch with concomitant procedures concerning aortic pathology,and an elephant trunk procedure for the descending aorta were prospectively enrolled in this study from February to May 2017.After surgery,they were transferred to the cardiac surgical intensive care unit.They were divided into two groups based on diaphragmatic excursion:diaphragmatic dysfunction (DD) group and diaphragmatic function normal (DN) grouBilateral diaphragmatic excursions were evaluated using ultrasound during spontaneous breathing trial by T-tube.The differences in demographic characteristics,operation-related variables and outcomes were compared between the two groups.Results A total of 42 patients were enrolled in this study,and 32 of them suffered from diaphragmatic dysfunctions.Compared with DN group,the excursion of the influenced diaphragm in DD group was significantly reduced[(0.450 ± 0.331)cm vs.(1.801 ± 0.616)cm,P<0.01],while the excursion of the non-influenced diaphragm was not reduced[(2.013±0.655)cm vs.(1.801 ±0.616) cm,P=0.254].Diaphragmatic thickness was comparable [(0.184±0.028)cm vs.(0.189±0.028)cm,P=0.559 ] between the two groups while thickening fraction was significantly reduced in DD group[(4.67%±3.63)% vs.(23.58%±10.69)%,P<0.01].Meanwhile,respiratory rate was significantly higher in DD group as compared to DN group [(24.13 ± 4.98)times/min vs.(20.50 ± 3.17)times/min,P=0.037].Patients in DD group showed longer cross-clamp duration[(121.78±27.75)min vs.(93.10±18.84)min,P=0.004] and longer cardiopulmonary bypass duration [(208.09±32.78)min vs.(182.70±24.38)min,P=0.03] than patients in DN grouFurthermore,binary logistic analysis indicated that longer cross-clamp duration was the potential risk factor for diaphragmatic dysfunction after type A aortic dissection surgery.Mechanical ventilation duration was longer in DD group than in DN group (88 h vs.37 h,P=0.194) but without statistical significance.The usage of noninvasive ventilation was significantly increased in DD group as compared to DN group (46.88% vs.10%,P=0.036).Other outcomes such as post-operative complications,mortality,ICU length of stay were comparable between the two groups.Conclusions Diaphragmatic dysfunction was very common after surgical treatment of type A aortic dissection.Longer duration of cross-clamp was considered as a potential risk factor of diaphragmatic dysfunction.A sequential management of noninvasive ventilation after extubation was feasible for diaphragmatic dysfunction after surgical treatment of type A aortic dissection.
