Objective To investigate the incidence of the post-stroke emotion disorder, the relationship between post-stroke emotion disorder and the location of stroke, and the effects of Paroxetine combined with psychotherapy in treating post-stroke emotion disorder. Methods 181 patients with acute brain stroke were assessed by SDS and SAS. Of these patients, 54 patients met the criteria of depression and anxiety after acute brain stroke. These 54 patients were divided into 2 groups randomly. They were treated with routine anti-stroke medication, routine anti-stroke medication with Paroxetine combined with psychotherapy for 6 weeks, respectively. The rating scales such as SSS, HAMD, HAMA, TESS and so on were used to evaluate the improvement of symptoms and side effects. Results According to the evaluation of SDS or SAS, there were 81 patients (44.75%) with post-stroke emotion disorder. The rate of post-stroke depression with anxiety was 66.67%. Post-stroke depression with anxiety was related to the location of brain stroke, such as frontal cortex,left cerebral hemisphere and basal ganglia (P

Objective To study the effect of hypothermia on cerebral mitochondrial respiratory function and ultrastructure after traumatic brain injury(TBI). Methods Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to moderate brain injury by using lateral fluid-percussion(LFP)and randomly divided into sham operation group,normothermic TBI group(rectal temperature for 36-37℃)and hypothermic TBI group(rectal temperature for 31-32℃ lasting for two hours).The ipsilateral brains were dissected and homogenized brain tissues were extracted to obtain mitochondfia by density-centrifugation and speed-centrifugation at 2,24 hours and at days 3 and 7 after TBI.The mitochondrial uhrastructure was studied by electron microscope.The indices of respiratory control rate(RCR)and P/O ratio of mitochondrial respiratory function were measured after oxygen consumption was determined with a Clark-type electrode.Results The mitochondrial uhrastructure of normothermic TBI group was damaged severely while that of hypothermic TBI group kept relatively integrated.The RCR and P/O ratio were markedly decreased two hours after TBI and reached the lowest level at the 24th hour(P<0.01).At day 7,RCR kept at a lower level compared with sham operation group but P/O ratio recovered to normal.Change of RCR was similar in hypothermie TBI group and normothermic TBI group.However,RCR of the hypothermic TBI group was significantly higher than that of the normothermic TBI group within three days after TBI.In the meantime,P/O ratio recovered to normal three days after TBI. Conclusion Hypothermia can improve cerebral mitochondrial respiratory function and protect the mitochondrial structure after TBI.

Objective To assess the safety and efficacy of stent-assisted coil embolization for acutely ruptured wide-necked intracranial aneurysms. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 192 wide-necked intracranial aneurysms in 178 patients. The efficacy and peri-procedure complications of stent-assisted embolization were compared between rup?ture aneurysms and unrupture aneurysms. Results Stent was successfully implanted in 78 rupture aneurysms and 114 un?rupture aneurysms. There was statistically significant difference between rupture aneurysms and unrupture aneurysms groups in rate of poor prognosis on discharge ( 23.1%vs. 5%,χ2=12.726, P<0.001) but not in the peri-procedure compli?cations rate (14.1%vs. 6.1%,χ2=3.456,P>0.05)nor in the rate of mortality and permanent disability (8.9%vs. 6.1%,χ2=0.475, P>0.05). Angiograms at 14.7 months of follow-up did not reveal any significant difference between rupture aneu?rysms and unrupture aneurysms groups in aneurysm complete occlusion (74.1%vs. 70.6%,χ2=0.197,P>0.05), recana?lization (10.3%vs. 9.4%,χ2=0.034,P>0.05)and in-stent stenosis (3.4%vs. 4.7%,χ2=0.136,P>0.05). Conclusion Stent-assisted coil embolization for acutely rupture wide-necked intracranial aneurysms can prevent recurrence effective?ly and can achieve high complete occlusion rate in long term follow-up. However, its procedure related complications and mortality is higher in rupture aneurysms than in unrupture aneurysms, which indicates that a caution is needed to conduct stent-assisted coil embolization in rupture aneurysms.

Objective: To ascertain the role of nitric oxide(NO) in hemodynamic dysfunction in patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods: The plasma levels of NO and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) of 28 cirrhotic patients and 16 normal controls were measured by Griess and colorimetric methods. Meanwhile, cardiac output (CO), cardiac index (CI) and systemic vascular resistance (R) were determined. Results: Higher plasma levels of NO and NOS activity were observed in cirrhotic patients than those in normal controls (52.34 vs 36.95 ?mol/L, P

Objective To observe any effects of using isokinetic strengthening exercises combined with intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate and joint mobilization in treating patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA).Methods Eighty-one KOA patients were divided into a combined treatment group,a conventional treatment group and a control group.The combined treatment group received isokinetic strengthening training,intra-articular injections of sodium hyaluronate and joint mobilization therapy; the conventional treatment group received the injections and mobilization only; the control group was instructed to do ankle pumps at home on their own.Before the start of treatment and after 4 weeks,knee pain was self-assessed [using a visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain] along with knee range of motion (ROM),quality of life (using the WOMAC condensed health survey rating scale) and indexes of isokinetic strength [including the knee flexors,extensor peak torque (PT),and the flexion and extension angles corresponding peak torque (AOPT)] in both groups.Results After 4 weeks of treatment,statistically significant improvements compared to the baseline values were observed in both groups.The combined treatment group,however,improved to a significantly greater extent than the conventional treatment group in terms of all of the measures.Conclusion Isokinetic strength training combined with intra-articular injections of sodium hyaluronate and joint mobilization has a synergistic effect in enhancing knee stability and improving the performance in activities of daily life of KOA patients.

Extraction of teeth is the most basic and widely used operation of oral and maxillofacial surgery. According to characteristics of extraction of teeth, the author views medical ethics principles which in the diagnoses and treatments process from the aspect of medical ethics, they are,①Doctors must intensify their own quality and self - cultivations and establish the idea of " People First ". ②Doctors must carry on the overall and systematic inspection, make the plan of diagnoses and treatments synthetically toimplement the idea of " People First ". ③Doctors should pay attention to interact with patient, meet different patients' demands and create the harmonious medical environment.

Objective To explore the clinical significance of serum ProGRP in diagnosis of SCLC.Methods Serum ProGRP were detected in twenty-three SCLC patients,forty NSCLC patients and forty-three patients with benign pulmonary disease whose were definite diagnosis collected from April 15,2016 to July 19,2016,and a contemporary cohort of 40 healthy controls were while recruited.Results The levels of ProGRP in SCLC group were significantly higher than those in NSCLC group,benign pulmonary disease group and healthy control group(P <0.05).The levels of ProGRP in extensive disease group were significantly higher than those in 1imited disease group(P <0.05).There was no significant difference in the positive rates of ProGRP between the sex group and age group (P > 0.05 ).The boundary value of diagnosis of SCLC through ProGRP identified through ROC curve was 65.66 ng/L.The sensitivity and specificity of the ProGRP for the diagnosis of SCLC were respectively 90.9% and 89.9%.Conclu-sion Serum ProGRP can be use as a sensitive and specific index for diagnosis of SCLC,and the level of ProGRP can also be used for the clinical staging of SCLC.
