Objective To observe the effect of single kneeling position trunk intensive training on the balance of patients with stroke Pusher syndrome. Methods From January, 2014 to February, 2016, forty patients with stroke Pusher syndrome were randomly divided into observation group and control group equally. They all accepted routine rehabilitation, while the observation group added a trunk intensive training with one knee kneeled. They were assessed with Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) of lower limb and Sheikh's Scale of Trunk Control before and after training. Results The scores of BBS, lower limb FMA and trunk control improved in both groups after eight weeks of treatment (t>1.756, P<0.05), and improved more in the observation group than in the control group (t>1.827, P<0.05). Conclusion Single kneeling trunk intensive training can effectively improve the balance in stroke patients with Pusher syndrome.

Objective To observe the blood biochemical and histological changes before and after pancreas freezing, to provide evidence for cryosurgery for pancreatic cancer. Methods Fifteen healthy pigs were divided into deep frozen group (n = 5), shallow frozen group (n = 5), non-frozen group (n = 3) and normal group (n = 2). After anesthesia and Iaparotomy, a probe of the Argon-Helium Surgical System was inserted into the pancreas, 100% and 10% argon output power were used in deep and shallow frozen group, respectively;and the temperature were - 130 ~ - 140℃ and - 110 ~ - 120℃, respectively;which results in an ice-ball with 15 ~ 20 mm in diameter. Then helium gas was inputted to increase the temperature to 10 ~ 20℃ for three minutes;then the whole process was repeated. A probe was inserted into the pancreas in the non-frozen group only and only laparotomy was performed in non-grozen group normal group and normal group. Serum amylase, IL-6, CRP levels before and after the experiment was determined;the pigs were sacrificed at day 7 and the pancreas was harvested for light microscope and electron microscope examination. Results The frozen pancreatic tissue became pitchy necrosis zone, and it could be distinguished from non-frozen tissue;there were obvious tissue necrosis in the center and para-center of frozen area, and the ultra-structure were destroyed and disappeared, mitochondria degranulation and rough endoplasmic reticulum degrannlation were observed. Serum amylase was elevated in 13 (86.7%) pigs and most returned to normal at 6th day. Serum IL-6 was slightly elevated in 5 (33.3%) pigs. There was no significant difference among all the groups in term of serum CRP. All the pigs were alive until the time of sacrifice. Conclusions Cryosurgery has affirmative fatal ablative effects on pancreatic tissue, and it is safe with no serious complications.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the mechanism of high transcription of the glial cell-line derived neurotrophic factor (gdnf) gene induced by hyperacetylation of histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) at its promoter region II in rat C6 glioma cells.
METHODSThe acetylation level of H3K9 at Egr-1 binding site in gdnf gene promoter region II and the binding capacity of Egr-1 to its binding site in gdnf promoter were examined by ChIP-PCR in C6 astroglioma cells and normal rat astrocytes, and its changes were investigated in C6 astroglioma cells after treatment with histone acetyltransferase inhibitor curcumin or deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A.
RESULTSCompared normal astrocytes, C6 astroglioma cells showed significantly increased acetylation level of H3K9 at Egr-1 binding site in gdnf gene promoter region II and Egr-1 binding capacity (P<0.01). Curcumin treatment significantly reduced H3K9 acetylation level at Egr-1 binding site and decreased both the binding of Egr-1 to promoter region II and gdnf mRNA levels in C6 astroglioma cells (P<0.05). Conversely, increased H3K9 acetylation at the Egr-1 binding site induced by trichostatin A significantly increased the binding of Egr-1 to promoter region II and gdnf mRNA expression levels (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONH3K9 hyperacetylation induces increased Egr-1 binding to gdnf gene promoter II, which might be the reason for the high transcription level of gdnf gene in rat C6 glioma cells.

Objective:
To conduct an epidemiological investigation on a cluster of overseas imported cases of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)in Qingtian County, Lishui,so as to provide reference for the prevention and control of COVID-19 imported from abroad.
Methods:
According to the COVID-19 Prevention and Control Program (FiFth Edition) issued by National Health Commission of China,a field investigation was employed and the close contacts of the case were tracked down ;the real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay was performed to detect the nucleic acid of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) from the sputum specimens or throat swabs of cases;the epidemiological characteristics,source of infection,route of transmission and disposal of the cluster were analyzed.
Results:
From March 1 to March 6,2020,eight confirmed cases and one asymptomatic case of COVID-19 were reported. Their median age was 33 years old. The nine cases all had no fever,no decrease in leukocyte and lymphocyte levels,and the clinical symptoms of seven cases were not obvious. The asymptomatic case had been tested negative for SARS-CoV-2 for six times,but had been weakly positive for IgM antibody and strongly positive for IgG antibody. Nine cases were all the employees of the same restaurant in Begamo,Italy. They lived in three independent villas and usually had lunch and dinner in the restaurant where they worked. Begamo had COVID-19 epidemic,but the staff of the restaurant did not take any protective measures such as wearing masks and environmental disinfection. Eight cases reported to have cold symptoms in Italy during mid February. Through a closed-loop management of“all people,all sites,all chains ”,such as treatment of current cases,screening and isolation of close contacts and health education,totally 372 close contacts were traced back,yet no fever or respiratory symptoms have been found.
Conclusions
It was a cluster of COVID-19 cases imported from abroad. The clinical symptoms of the cases were not obvious. Qingtian County adopted the closed-loop management in time,and effectively controlled the spread of the epidemic. No second-generation cases have been found.

Objective:
: Nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyl transferase 2 (NMNAT2) is a crucial factor for the survival of neuron. The role of NMNAT2 in damage following traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains unknown. This study was designed to investigate the role of NMNAT2 in TBI-induced neuronal degeneration and neurological deficits in rats.
Methods:
: The TBI model was established in Sprague-Dawley rats by a weight-dropping method. Real-time polymerase chain reaction, western blot, immunofluorescence, Fluoro-Jade C staining, and neurological score analyses were carried out.
Results:
: NMNAT2 mRNA and protein levels were increased in the injured-side cortex at 6 hours and peaked 12 hours after TBI. Knocking down NMNAT2 with an injection of small interfering RNA in lateral ventricle significantly exacerbated neuronal degeneration and neurological deficits after TBI, which were accompanied by increased expression of BCL-2-associated X protein (Bax).
Conclusion
: NMNAT2 expression is increased and NMNAT2 exhibits neuroprotective activity in the early stages after TBI, and Bax signaling pathway may be involved in the process. Thus, NMNAT2 is likely to be an important target to prevent secondary damage following TBI.
