Objective To observe the effect of electroacupuncture on hand dysfunction after stroke. Methods Forty hemiplegic patients after stroke were selected from a multi-center large-scale trail, belonged to rehabilitation group (n=20) and electroacupuncture group (n=20), who accepted routine rehabilitation and additional electroacupuncture, respectively, for six weeks. They were assessed with Brunnstrom Grade, Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT) and modified Barthel index (MBI) before treatment, two, four and six weeks during treatment, and twelve weeks after treatment. Results There were differences between two groups in scores of FMA, WMFT and total time to complete WMFT twelve weeks after treatment (t>1.900, P<0.05). There was no difference between two groups in scores of MBI and Brunnstrom Grade (t=0.532, Z<1.79, P>0.05), but electroacupuncture group seemed to improve more. Conclusion Elec-troacupuncture may improve the muscle strength for patients in flaccid paralysis, and promote the recovery of hand function for patients af-ter stroke.

Objective To observe the effect of treadmill training on metabotropic glutamate receptor of a middle cerebral artery occlusion model in rat and its underlying mechanisms. Methods Sprague-Dawley male rats of 2 or 3 months old were randomly divided into 3 groups: a sham operation group, an iscbemia-reperfnsion group and a treadmill training group (subject to 2 weeks of training after the ischemia-reperfusion). All the animals were sacri-ficed after 2 weeks of training and their brains were sampled for measurement of the expression level of the striatum mGluR Ⅰ-mRNA, using RT-PCR technique. Results The striatum mRNA of mGluR1 and mGluR5 was signifi-cantly elevated in the ischemia-reperfusion group(P<0.01), but treadmill training significantly suppressed the ele-vation of the expression of mRNA of mGluR1 and mGluR5 (P<0.01). Conclusions Treadmill training can signif-icantly downregulate mGluR Ⅰ-mRNA expression. This might be one of the important mechanisms for inhibition of the excitatory glutamate production.

Objective To investigate the value of CysC-based CFR in comparison with creatinine-based GFR (CG-GFR and MDRD-GFR) as an accurate serum marker in the prediction of early diabetic nephropathy. Methods A tatal of 133 type 2 diabetic patients (74 males and 59 females, aged 58.1 ±12.3) were enrolled. The level of diabetic nephropathy (normoalbuminuric, microalbuminuric and macroalbuminuric) was staged and estimated GFR based on serum creatinine and cystatin C(CysC) was calculated. The plasma clearance of Tc-DTPA, serum CysC, creatinine, BMI, HbA1c, serum lipid and blood pressure were measured. Results 99mTc-DTPA-GFR was used as golden standard. At 90 and 75 ml· min-1· (1.73 m2)-1 cut-points, diagnostic efficiencies of CysC-GFR (89% and 92%) were better than those of CG-GFR (79%=86%, P=0.004, 0.04) and MDRD-GFR (80%-86%, P=0.02, 0.04). At 60 ml · min-1 · (1.73 m2)-1 cut-point, diagnostic efficiencies of CysC-GFR,CG-GFR and MDRD-GFR were 92%, 90% and 92% respectively (P= 0.49, P=0.71). The Logistic regression analyses showed that retinopathy, HbA1c, CysC, diabetic duration, and CysC-GFR were indicators to predict the development of microalbuminuria. Conclusion CysC-GFR is more valuable than CG-GFR and MDRD-GFR in the prediction of early diabetic nephropathy and should be applied clinically.

Objective:To study the curative efficacy of decitabine combine with CAG regimen in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia and its effects on the serum Interferon-γ (IFN-γ),alpha hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels.Methods:70 cases of patients with acute myeloid leukemia who were treated from February 2013 to October 2016 in our hospital were selected as research objects.According to the random number table,the patients were divided into the observation group (n=35) and the control group (n=35).Both groups of patients were treated conventional treatment.The control group was treated with CAG scheme,intravenous injection of aclarubicin,20 mg each time,granulocyte colony stimulating factor,300 μg each time,subcutaneous intravenous cytarabine,10～15 mg/m2 each time,while the observation group was treated with intravenous drip of decitabine on the basis of control group,15 mg/m2 each time.Then the therapeutic effect,serum interferon-γ (IFN-γ),alpha hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels before and after treatment,incidence of adverse reactions were compared between two groups.Results:After treatment,the total effective of observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group [91.42％(32/35)vs68.57％(24/35)] (P ＜0.05);the serum IFN-γ,HBDH,LDH levels were significantly higher than those of the control group [(3.21± 1.01)pg/ml vs.(5.13 ± 1.90)pg/mL,(103.62± 26.39)U/L vs.(118.80± 28.60)U/L,(101.36± 27.32)U/L vs.(123.08 ± 30.59)U/L] (P ＜0.05);the incidence rate of adverse reactions was significantly lower than that of the control group [20.00％(7/35) vs.42.85％(15/35)(P ＜0.05)].Conclusion:Decitabine combined with CAG regimen was more effective for acute myeloid leukemia than CAG regimen alone,which might be related to reduce the serum levels of IFN-γ, HBDH and LDH.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the bacterial distribution and antibiotic resistance situation with urinary tract infection(UTI) for the guidance of rational use of antibiotics.METHODS The antibiotic resistance of clinical isolates from urinary tract infection from Mar 2005 to Jul 2006 was analyzed. RESULTS The most common pathogens in urinary tract infection were Escherichia coli(50.2%),Enterococcus(14.4%),Staphyloccus aureus(8.7%),Klebsiella pneumoniae(7.3%),and Proteus mirabilis(3.9%).E.coli,K.pneumoniae,and P.mirabilis were found to be highly resistant to ampicillin,quinolones and SMZ(70.6-100.0%).Enterococcus were highly resistant to penicillin and quinolones(81.0-96.8%).41.4% of E.coli and 31.3% of K.pneumoniae isolates produced ESBLs.HLGR-Enterococcus were 79.4%.78.9% S.aureus isolates were resistant to oxacillin.CONCLUSIONS The high antibiotic resistance of commonly encountered pathogens is a serious problem and much attention should be paid to detect pathogens and their antibiotic resistance.

Objective To investigate the expression of FTO in gastric cancer tissues and the functional significance of FTO in MGC-803 cell line.Methods The FTO mRNA was detected by RT-qPCR in 54 cases of gastric cancer samples and their paired adjacent normal control tissues.The effect of FTO overexpression in MGC-803 on cell proliferation,cell migration and invasion were detected by CCK-8,wound heal and ranswell assays,respectively.Results The expression of FTO mRNA was significantly lower than that of adjacent tissues(P＜O.05).Furthermore,overexpression of FTO in MGC-803 cells inhibited cell proliferation,cell migration and invasion.Conclusions FTO is low expressed in gastric cancer tissues and inhibits gastric cancer cell line MGC-803 proliferation,migration and invasion.FTO is closely associated with the development of gastric cancer.

Objectives This study was designed to observe the correlation of the levels of serum N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP) and high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP) between the 3rd day after acute myocardial infarction(AMI) and after 3 months of left ventricular remodeling(LV remodeling) and to establish the predictive levels of NT-proBNP,hs-CRP for LV remodeling after AMI.Methods The blood samples from 106 patients with the first AMI and echocardiography were examined on the 3rd day and after 3 month.LV remodeling was estimated by the changes of left ventricular end-diastolic volume(LVEDV) during the 3rd day and after 3 month.Based on the change of LV remodeling,the 106 patients were divided into two groups:LV remodeling group(defined as the change rate of LVEDV more than 20%) and non-LV remodeling group.Results The correlation coefficients of the change of LVEDV were 0.706 for serum NT-pro BNP and 0.596 for hs-CRP.With a cutoff value of 0.20,the area under the ROC curve(AUCs) was(0.892) for NT-proBNP and 0.825 for hs-CRP.There was no statistically difference between NT-proBNP and hs-CRP.The ROC plot indicated that NT-proBNP was superior to hs-CRP for predicting LV remodeling.Conclusion The level of serum NT-proBNP appropriately reflects LV remodeling after AMI and shows more efficacious than the level of serum hs-CRP.The level of serum NT-proBNP on the 3rd day after AMI and LV remodeling were positively correlated with the level after 3 months.
