Objective To systematically review the clinical efficacy of botulinum toxin A for the treatment of upper limb spasticity after stroke. Methods PubMed,EMbase,Cochrane Library,CBM, China National Knowledge Internet (CNKI),and Wanfang Data were retrieved by a computer. The randomized controlled trials and Case-control study of comparing botulinum toxin A combined with rehabilitation training and routine rehabilitation treatment for upper limb spasticity after stroke were collected. The retrieval time was from the foundation of the database to September 1,2016. At least two reviewers conducted literature screening,data extraction,and quality evaluation according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Rev-Man 5. 3 software provided by the Cochrane Collaboration was used to conduct the Meta-analysis. Results A total of 356 articles were retrieved. Finally,11 articles met the inclusion criteria. The modified Jadad score showed that the scores of 9 articles were more than 4,which belonged to high-quality literature. Eleven articles included 614 patients,in which 316 were treated with botulinum toxin A. There were 298 patients in the control group. The results of Meta-analysis indicated that the Fugl-Meyer score (SMD =0. 94,95% CI 0. 75 to 1. 12),modified Ashworth score (SMD = - 1. 59,95% CI - 1. 78 to - 1. 40),and modified Barthel index (SMD = 0. 86,95% CI 0. 65 to 1. 08)in the botulinum toxin treatment group were superior to the control group. There were significant differences (all P < 0. 05). The incidence of adverse events (RR = 1. 06,95% CI 0. 78 to 1. 45)was similar in both groups. There was no significant difference (P > 0. 05). Conclusion The efficacy of treatment of upper limb spasticity after stroke with botulinum toxin A is exact,and the security is high. The appropriate rehabilitation training can effectively improve the limb motor function,muscle tension,and quality of life of patients.

AIM: To discuss the clinical efficacy of fresh amniotic membrane ( AM ) during the microscopic adjustable suture surgery in children's intercommunity strabismus, in order to guide clinical treatment.
METHODS: With the clinical randomized control study (RCT), 60 (112 eyes) cases of patients in childhood who received microscopic strabismus surgery in our hospital were divided them into two different groups from Jan. 2010 to Oct. 2015. According to the application of AM on the basis of ophthalmology outpatient number, 30 cases (58 eyes) in group A were treated with rectus muscle recession surgery combined adjustable suture combined with AM. The other 30 cases (54 eyes) in group B were treated with rectus muscle recession surgery combined adjustable suture only. All patients in two groups were followed-up over 6mo after the strabismus surgery.
RESULTS:Twenty-seven cases ( 48 eyes ) of all the strabismus patients must be adjusted after strabismus surgery, and the eye position adjustment rate was 42.9%. At 1mo after surgery, eye position of 18 cases (29 eyes) can be adjusted in all patients, and 44. 8% (16 cases, 26 eyes ) in group A with the average of adjustment lengths was 2. 56±0. 64mm, and 5. 6% ( 2 cases, 3 eyes ) in group B, with the average of adjustment lengths was 0. 52±0. 28mm, the differences of the adjustment rate and the average of adjustment amount were both high statistically significant (χ2 =22.477, P<0. 01; t=16. 502, P<0. 01 ) between the two groups. Except of 3 cases who couldn't cooperate with eye position adjustment, they all received eye position adjustment in different degrees in one month after strabismus surgery,and after eye position adjustment, 27 cases (53 eyes) in group A got normal eye position, and the correction rate of eye position was 91. 4%, and 16 cases (28 eyes) in group B got normal eye position after eye position adjustment, the correction rate was 51. 9%, the differences of the correction rate were statistically significant (χ2=21. 827, P<0. 01) between the two groups.
CONCLUSION: The application of fresh AM in the microscopic adjustable suture strabismus surgery is exactly effective in treatment of children's intercommunity strabismus. It can significantly extend the adjustment time and increase the adjustment amount, and it also can statistically improve the controllability and achievement ratio for children's strabismus surgery.

Aim To investigate the relationship be-tween the cardioprotection of apigenin ( Api ) from an-oxia/reoxygenation ( A/R) injury and Bcl-2 pathway. Methods H9 c2 cardiomyocytes were cultured and di-vided into normal control group, A/R group, Api pre-treatment group ( Api ) , Api + Bcl-2 inhibitor group ( Api + ABT-737 ) . Expression of Bcl-2 was deter-mined by Western blot,and cell viability was measured by MTT method. LDH, SOD, GSH-Px, MDA activity were determined by chromometry. ROS generation, mi-tochondrial membrane potential and apoptosis were de-termined by flow cytometry. Results 25h after apige-nin precondition,the expression of Bcl-2 was upregulat-ed in cardiomyocytes ( P <0. 01 ) . In the group pre-treated with 40 μmol · L-1 apigenin before A/R, the activity of LDH in culture medium decreased; the ac-tivity of intracellular SOD, GSH-Px increased; the content of MDA and ROS generation decreased; cell viability increased; mitochondrial membrane potential could be more stable and cell apoptosis decreased ( P<0. 01 ) . However, all these protective effects were attenuated significantly in the group pretreated with apigenin and Bcl-2 inhibitor ABT-737 . Conclusion The effect of apigenin against A/R injury in cardiomyo-cytes involves Bcl-2 pathway, and at least partly de-pends on its effect on upregulating the expression of Bcl-2 .

Objective To analyze the differential expression of microRNA-146a (miR-146a) in monocyte-macrophage cell line (THP-1 cells) after induction by Cryptococcus neoformans (C.neoformans,reference strain WM148) or Cryptococcus gattii (C.gattii,reference strain R265),and investigate the mechanism of miR-146a in regulating the inflammatory response of cryptococcal meningitis.Methods The cultured THP-1 cells were divided into two groups to be induced by C.neoformans or C.gattii,respectively.THP-1 cells were induced with inactivated WN148 (or R265) strains at multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 5 in all experiments.The supematant and the cell pellet were collected separately after incubation.The expression of miR-146a was measured by real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) technique.The levels of TNF-u and IL-6 release were assayed by ELISA.Results The expression of miR-146a increased significantly in the C.neoformans induction group compared to 0 h.It reached peak at 3 h (P<0.01),and then declined gradually.The level of TNF-α increased in supematant and reached peak at 12 h.The expression of IL-6 did not change significantly at each time point.The expression of miR-146a and TNF-α increased gradually and reached peak at 12 h in the C.gattii induction group (P <0.01),but the change did not reach statistical significance at 3 h,6 h time points.The expression of IL-6 gradually increased,and reached peak at 12 h time point.Conclusions Following stimulation with C.neoformans or C.gattii,the expression ofmiR-146a in THP-1 cells showed different patterns over time.The expression levels of TNF-α and IL-6 showed different patterns.These findings suggest that there may be different regulatory mechanisms in the THP-1 cells-associated inflammatory response after stimulation by inactivated C.neoformans and C.gattii strains.
