Objective To discuss the clinical feature ,diagnosis and treatment of the occult cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea after tracheotomy in patients with severe traumatic brain injury .Methods The clinical data of 18 cases of the occult cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea after tracheotomy in patients with severe traumatic brain injury were retro -spectively analyzed .Results 15 cases showed involuntary swallowing movements ,frequent stimulus-likecough, abnormal increased secretions in the oral and nasal;3 cases performance of aspiration ,hypoxemia ,respiratory distress . After a three -dimensional thin skull CT , cisternography , nasal endoscopic examination can confirm the diagnosis . After the treatment with replacing the tracheostomy tube with a balloon ,continuous lumbar drainage ,endoscopic repair leak,the cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea were cured .Conclusion Patients with occult cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea performance the diversity and easily missed ,early detection and timely treatment can prevent cerebrospinal fluid rhi-norrhea delayed healing and intracranial infection and promote patient recovery .

Objective:To explore any effect of repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on the upper limb motor function and cerebral cortex activation of stroke survivors.Methods:Sixty stroke survivors were randomly divided into an intervention group and a control group, each of 30. In addition to routine rehabilitation training (including drug therapy, comprehensive hemiplegic limb training and physical factor therapy), the intervention group received 15 minutes of rTMS daily, five days a week for 4 weeks while the control group was given false rTMS. Upper limb motor function was evaluated before and after the treatment using the Fugl Meyer upper limb motor function rating scale (FMA-UE). Functional near-infrared spectroscopy was used to detect and compare the activation (β values) of the prefrontal cortex, the motor cortex and the primary somatosensory cortex in the 2 groups. The correlation between the FMA-UE scores and the β values was quantified.Results:①There was no significant difference in the average FMA-UE scores between the two groups before the treatment. Afterward, though both groups′ average scores had increased significantly, there was significantly greater improvement in the treatment group. ②There was also no significant difference in average β value between the two groups before the experiment, but afterward the average βs of channels 27 and 13 in the intervention group were significantly higher than in the control group. Moreover, in patients with lesion in the left brain, the β-values of CH27 and CH13 were also significantly higher than the control group ( P<0.05). ③The FMA-UE scores of the intervention group were moderately correlated with the CH27 and CH13 β values, but those of the control group were only weakly correlated with the β values of CH27. Conclusion:Transcranial magnetic stimulation activates a lesioned left brain region, improving upper limb motor function. The improvement is correlated with the activation of the left prefrontal cortex and the left primary somatosensory cortex.
