Objective To study the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on rats'locomotor function after hemisectional spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods A model of hemisectional SCI was established at the T10 segment in 12 rats,which were then randomly divided into an SCI-rTMS group and an SCI-control group.Another 6 rats served as normal controls.The SCI-rTMS group received threshold rTMS daily for 4 weeks,while the SCI-control group was given sham rTMS.The normal control group was left without any treatment.BassoBeatti-Bresnahan (BBB) locomotor scores were recorded weekly.Motor evoked potential (MEP) was detected at the 28th day after the operation.Neurofilament-200 (NF-200) was detected with immunofluorescent staining of the spinal cord lesions. Results The BBB scores in the SCI-rTMS group improved more than those in the SCI-control group.MEP of the fight hindlimb was detected in the rTMS group,but not in the control group.Expression of NF-200 marker increased significantly more than in the rTMS group. Conclusions rTMS can improve locomotor function of rats after spinal cord hemisectioning,which may result from increased expression of NF-200 and the regeneration of axons.

Objective To study the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) combined with hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy on the recovery of neurological functional after cerebral infarction,and to discuss its possible mechanism.Methods Forty-five patients with cerebral infarction were randomly divided into a control group,an rTMS group and an rTMS plus HBO group,each group with 15 patients.The patients in the two treatment groups received 1 Hz rTMS to inhibit the unaffected hemisphere and 3 Hz rTMS to stimulate the affected hemisphere.One of the treatment groups also received HBO therapy,14 daily sessions.The National Institutes of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) and the Barthel index (BI) were evaluated on the 1st,14th and 30th day of treatment.Results The neurological function scores of those in the rTMS group and the rTMS & HBO group improved significantly.On the 1st and 14th day,no significant difference in NIHSS or BI scores was observed among the three groups,but by the 30th day the average neurological functional score in the rTMS & HBO group had improved significantly compared with the control group.The rTMS plus HBO group showed significantly better improvement than the rTMS group in terms of BI scores,but no significant difference in average NIHSS and BI scores was observed between the rTMS group and the control group.Fifteen days after the treatments had finished,the follow up results showed the improvements of the patients in the rTMS plus HBO group were significantly better than those in the other groups.Conclusion For patients with cerebral infarction,rTMS combined with HBO therapy can improve neurological function more significantly than rTMS therapy alone.

Objective To compare the clinical effects of extracorporeal shock wave treatment (ESWT) on lumbar ramus posterior nervorum spinalium syndrome and to compare the effectiveness of applying it in X-ray orientation with pain-point orientation.MethodsSixty patients with lumbar ramus posterior nervorum spinalium syndrome were randomly divided into an X-ray orientation group and a pain-point orientation group with 30 subjects in each group.The two groups then received ESWT with the X-ray orientation and pain-point orientation,respectively.The ESWT was delivered at the energy of 0.12 to 0.20 mJ/cm2 and the frequency of 60-80 pulses per minutes.A total of 1000-1500 shock wave pulses were delivered every time.Three sessions of ESWT were administered,with a 3-5 days of interval between each session.The results were rated using the 75 scores of the lumbar function quantification index recommended by Greenough.Ratings were done before treatment,and after the first,the second and the third treatment.ResultsThere was no significant difference between the groups' average index scores before treatment.There were however significant differences from the baseline scores after the first,the second and the third treatments.There was no significant difference in average lumbar function quantification scores between the groups after the first treatment,but the inter-group differences were statistically significant after the second and the third treatments.After three treatments the cure rate in the X-ray orientation group was 76.7％ and overall effectiveness was 93.3％.Both were significantly higher than in the pain-point orientation group (33.3％ and 76.7％ respectively).ConclusionsThe advantages of X-ray orientation when administering ESWT for lumbar rami posterior nervorum spinalium syndrome are more exact positioning and more effective treatment.The effect was obviously better than with pain-point orientation.

OBJECTIVE To isolate Acinetobacter bacteriophages and analyze their lysis spectrum.METHODS A total of 78 Acinetobacter strains were isolated from the sewage of different sources whose lysis spectrum was determined by method of single layer plates.RESULTS From them only two kinds of Acinetobacter bacteriophages AB46 and AB54 with different lysis spectrum were isolated from 2 strains.The former had a lysis spectrum of 46(1.28%)and the latter had a lysis spectrum of 54,57,59,60,62,69,70 and 78(10.27%).CONCLUSIONS Acinetobacter bacteriophages are isolated and their lysis spectrums are obtained.The lysis spectrums are narrow which need to improve their lysis ranges but they can infect their hosts virulently and form transparent plaques.

BACKGROUND:As a new self-synthetized medical orthopedic fixation material, micron traditional Chinese medicine functional lining material can promote the secretion of alkaline phosphatase and cal us formation, decrease serum calcium level, as wel as increase serum phosphorus level and calcium-phosphorus product. OBJECTIVE:To further verify the therapeutic effect of micron traditional Chinese medicine functional lining material on fracture healing. METHODS:Twenty-four New Zealand rabbits were selected to prepare models of right radial fracture, and then were randomly al ocated into four groups:rabbits in micron group were treated with micron traditional Chinese medicine functional lining material (micron Panax notoginseng powder mixed with active ingredients of Daval ia divaricata and Carthamus tinctoriousplus) plus plaster external fixation;those in traditional Chinese medicine control group treated with ordinary Chinese medicine functional material plus plaster external fixation;those in lining material control group treated with ordinary lining material (sterile degreasing cotton) plus plaster external fixation;those in model control group received no treatment. The whole blood viscosity at high/middle/low shear rates and plasma viscosity were detected at 2, 4 and 6 weeks before and after modeling. Additional y, rabbits in each group were kil ed at 6 weeks after modeling, and radial samples were removed for histological observation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The whole blood viscosity at high/middle/low shear rates and plasma viscosity in the micron group were al lower than those in the other three groups in the same period, and had significant differences from those in the model control group at 4 and 6 weeks after modeling (P<0.05 or 0.01). A large number of osteoblasts could be found, woven bone began to form and the bone marrow cavity was recanalized in the micron group;in the traditional Chinese medicine group, woven bone, chondrocytes and endochondral ossification coexisted and there was a connection between cal uses inside and outside of the broken end, but the bone marrow cavity was not recanalized. In contrast, neither connection between cal uses inside and outside of the broken end, nor recanalized bone marrow cavity appeared in the lining material and model control groups. In conclusion, micron traditional Chinese medicine functional lining material can promote fracture healing by improving microcirculation and accelerating osteoblast proliferation.
