Objective To observe the effect of proximal needling at Tianzhu (BL10) plus electroacupuncture at the Balance Zone on the lower-limb motor function and walking function in cerebral stroke patients.Method A hundred cerebral stroke patients were randomized into a rehabilitation group and a proximal needling group. The rehabilitation group was intervened by balance training and conventional rehabilitation exercises; the proximal needling group was intervened by proximal needling at Tianzhu plus electroacupuncture at the Balance Zone in addition to the treatment given to the rehabilitation group. The interventions weregiven once a day, 5 times a week, successively for 4 weeks. Prior to the intervention and after 4-week treatment, the lower-limb motor function and walking function were estimated by using lower-extremity Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), time taken for 10-meter walk, and Holden's Functional Ambulation Classification (FAC).Result After 4-week treatment, the FMA, 10-meter walk time and FAC were significantly enhanced in both groups compared to the indexes prior to the treatment (P<0.01); the FMA, 10-meter walk time and FAC in the proximal needling group were significantly superior to those in the rehabilitation group (P<0.05).Conclusion In addition to conventional rehabilitation and acupuncture, proximal needling at Tianzhuplus electroacupuncture at the Balance Zone can increasethe lower-limb motor function score and promote the activities of daily life in cerebral stroke patients; it can also strengthen the security in walking and keep the patients from falling down.

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of horticultural therapy on improving university students mental health problems and to provide evidence to support the application of horticultural therapy in the prevention and treatment of university students mental health. Methods: From March to May 2022,a before-and after paired design was used with a blank control group, mental health screening abnormalities were recruited from a comprehensive university in Hebei Province, including 57 in the intervention group and 21 in the control group, and the Symptom Checklist-90(SCL-90) score and hair cortisol were included as outcome indicators, which was measured by enzyme linked immunoassay Elisa double antibody sandwich method. Results: The total SCL-90 scores of the intervention group decreased ( t=4.28, P <0.01) and were significantly lower compared with the control group( t=-2.66, P <0.01), while no significant difference was observed in the control group( t=0.29, P >0.05), and the difference between the pre and post measures on each dimension of the SCL-90 was significantly lower in the intervention group (all P <0.01); the difference between the pre and post measures of hair cortisol contentration in the intervention group was statistically significant( Z= -2.75, P <0.05), and the hair cortiso contentration in pre measure group was lower than that of control group( Z=-3.48, P < 0.01 ). In contrast, the difference between pre and post measurements of hair cortisol in the control group was not significant( Z= -0.75 , P >0.05). Conclusion Horticultural therapy can improve the psychological symptoms of university students is suitable for psychological interventions in the university population and is beneficial to the health and well being of university students.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with cutaneous intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL).Methods:The data of 30 cutaneous IVLBCL published between January 1989 and May 2019 in China were systematically reviewed. The clinical manifestation, biochemical and imaging characteristics and diagnostic features of patients were summarized, and then the survival of different groups was also analyzed.Results:The median onset age was 61.5 years old (25.0-83.0 years old), and there were 22 (73.3%) females. All 30 patients presented with cutaneous lesions. Initial symptoms showed cutaneous lesions in 16 (53.3%) patients; and B symptom, respiratory symptoms or central nervous system (CNS) occurred in 14 (46.7%) patients with late cutaneous lesions. Cutaneous lesions were heterogeneous, and 76.7% (23/30) lesions located in lower abdomen and proximal limbs. And 76.2% (16/21) were positive in image examination, and 78.3% (18/23) had two or more extranodal organs invasion. The median time from onset to visit was 2.5 months (0.4-24.0 months), and clinical misdiagnosis rate was 56.7%(17/30). All IVLBCL patients were confirmed by biopsy, including 6 cases (27.3%, 6/22) of bone marrow involvement, 1 case (3.3%) of hemophagocytic syndrome-associated variant, and 29 cases (96.7%) of classical variant. Finally, 81.8% (18/22) patients received anthracycline-based combined chemotherapy. Compared with non-chemotherapy group, the median OS time of chemotherapy group was prolonged [11.0 months (2.0-60.0 months) vs. 2.0 months (0.7-24.0 months), P = 0.002]. Patients with CNS symptoms had shorter median OS time compared with patients without CNS symptoms [2.0 months (0.7-6.0 months) vs. 11.0 months (1.0-60.0 months), P < 0.01]. The median OS time in the group of cutaneous lesions as initial symptom combined with other symptoms was longer than that in group of late cutaneous lesions and other symptoms as initial symptom [unreached (2.0-60.0 months) vs. 3.0 months (1.5-24.0 months), P = 0.032]. Conclusions:Cutaneous IVLBCL is a rare disease with atypical clinical characteristics in China. Prompt attention and biopsy in time will be helpful for early diagnosis. Accompanied with CNS symptoms suggests poor prognosis; and timely chemotherapy can improve the prognosis of the patients.

Objective:To investigate the treatment, safety and prognosis of advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients with leptomeningeal metastasis and performance status score more than 3.Methods:The clinical data of 6 NSCLC patients with leptomeningeal metastasis admitted to the People's Hospital of Wuhan University from November 2016 to September 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. The curative effect and adverse reactions were observed, and the prognosis was analyzed.Results:There were 5 females and 1 male among 6 patients. The median age was 57 years old (46-74 years old). All 6 patients were diagnosed as stage Ⅳ lung adenocarcinoma. There were 3 patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 21 mutation, 2 patients with exon 19 mutation and one with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) fusion mutation. The time window of leptomeningeal metastasis occurred after the progression of adenocarcinoma of lung: 3 cases was more than 12 months, the other 3 cases was less than 12 months, and the average was 20.3 month. Performance status score was more than 3 when leptomeningeal metastasis occurred. The brain magnetic resonance imaging of 6 patients showed linear enhancement of leptomeningeal, cancer cells were found in cerebrospinal fluid in one case, 4 cases were treated with a combination of bevacizumab and EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), 1 case was treated with oral administration of EGFR-TKI, 1 case was treated with oral administration of EGFR-TKI combined with temozolomide. The median overall survival (mOS) was 9 months (2-13 months), and the median progression free survival was 6 months (2-11 months).Conclusion:Lung adenocarcinoma may be prone to leptomeningeal metastasis; for NSCLC patients with leptomeningeal metastasis and performance status score more than 3, a combination of EGFR-TKI and bevacizumab has good tolerance, high safety and considerable curative effect.

Objective To sinicize the long and short forms of the English version of the visually induced mo-tion sickness susceptibility questionnaire(VIMSSQ)and to test the validity and reliability of the Chinese version of the questionnaire among college students.Methods The Chinese version of the VIMSSQ was sinicized using Brislin's translation model,the translated scale was cross-culturally adapted through expert consultation.At last,the Chinese version of the questionnaire survey was conducted among 757 college students,and 80 college students were selected to fill out the simulator sickness questionnaire(SSQ)at the same time to do a correlation analysis in order to verify the predictive efficacy of the scale,and the reliability and validity results of the scale were analyzed to form the Chinese version of the VIMSSQ.Results The total Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the long form question-naire was 0.94,and the alpha coefficients of the five factors were 0.85,0.85,0.85,0.84,and 0.83 respectively.The total retest reliability was 0.79,and the retest reliabilities of the five factors were 0.73,0.77,0.76,0.66,and 0.62 respectively.The split-half reliability was 0.84.The total Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the short form ques-tionnaire was 0.83,and the retest reliability was 0.81,and the split-half reliability was 0.77.The item-level con-tent validity index(I-CVI)for the long and short forms and the average scale-level content validity(scale-level con-tent validity index/average,S-CVI/Ave)were both 1.VIMSSQ scores for both the long and short forms were sig-nificantly correlated with the SSQ,with r=0.76(P＜0.001)between the long form and the SSQ,and with r=0.77(P＜0.001)between the short form and the SSQ.Conclusion The Chinese version of the VIMSSQ has good reliability and validity among college students,and can be used as a measurement tool to evaluate college students'susceptibility to visually induced motion sickness.

Objective To discuss the clinical application value of super selective renal artery embolization-assisted(SRAE-assisted)laparoscopic partial nephrectomy(LPN).Methods A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of patients with stage T1 renal carcinoma,who received LPN,was conducted.The patients were divided into SRAE group(performing LPN without adopting renal hilum vascular clamping)and VC group(performing LPN with adopting renal hilum vascular clamping).The time spent for operation,amount of intraoperative blood loss,and preoperative and postoperative renal functions were compared between the two groups.According to the warm ischemia time(WIT),the patients of the VC group were subdivided into WIT＜25 min subgroup and WIT≥25 min subgroup,and the preoperative and postoperative renal functions were compared between the two subgroups.Results A total of 59 patients with renal carcinoma were enrolled in this study,including 12 patients in SRAE group and 47 patients in VC group.In VC group,WIT＜25 min subgroup had 33 patients and WIT≥25 min subgroup had 14 patients.In both SRAE group and VC group,no patient was referred to open surgery or total nephrectomy.No patient in SRAE group was referred to traditional LPN.The time spent for operation in SRAE group and VC group was 100.50(73.75,132.50)min and 120.00(90.00,145.00)min respectively,the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).The postoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)in SRAE group was 100.56(82.85,106.81),which was remarkably higher than 84.66(70.84,94.85)in VC group(P＜0.05).The postoperative serum creatinine level in VC group was 90.50(77.10,104.90)μmol/L,which was strikingly higher than 72.24(65.97,80.27)μmol/L in SRAE group(P＜0.05).The amount of intraoperative blood loss in SRAE group was 50(50,50)mL,which was lower than 50(50,100)mL in VC group(P＜0.05).In VC group,the postoperative eGFR in WIT≥25 min subgroup was 66.13(47.08,82.50),which was lower than 90.80(77.18,98.78)in WIT＜25 min subgroup(P＜0.05).During the postoperative one-year follow-up,no recurrence was observed in both groups.Conclusion Compared with traditional LPN,SRAE-assisted LPN doesn't need to obstruct the renal hilus during surgery,which can avoid the ischemic impairment of the residual renal function and reduce the amount of intraoperative blood loss,moreover,it doesn't increase the operation time,doesn't increase the incidence of complications such as postoperative bleeding,etc.and doesn't affect the curative efficacy and patient's prognosis.

Objective: To investigate the salvage strategy and efficacy for patients with locally recurrent esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after definitive radiochemotherapy. Methods: A total of 126 patients who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled in this study and divided into the salvage surgery, salvage radiochemotherapy and best supportive care. Results: Fifty-eight of 126 patients received salvage esophagectomy, 52 underwent salvage radiochemotherapy and the remaining 16 patients received best supportive care. The 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rates of patients receiving salvage therapy were 51%, 16% and 4% for the three groups, whereas all patients in the best supportive care group died within 12.0 months (P<0.001). The 1-, 3-, 5-year survival rates in the salvage surgery and salvage radiochemotherapy groups were 48%, 20% and 7%, and 51%, 11% and 3%, respectively (P=0.473). Multivariate analysis by Cox proportional hazard model showed that T staging of recurrent tumors and salvage regimen were the independent prognostic factors in patients with locally recurrent esophageal cancer (both P<0.001). Postoperative infection occurred in 16% of the patients in the salvage surgery group, and the incidence of esophagotracheal fistula and mediastinoesophageal fistula was 10% and 6% in the salvage radiochemotherapy group. Conclusions A survival benefit can be elicited by salvage surgery or salvage radiochemotherapy in patients with locally recurrent esophageal cancer after definitive radiochemotherapy. Nevertheless, extensive attention should be paid to the management of postoperative complications in clinical practice.
