Objective To observe and explore the therapeutic effect of acupuncture combined rehabilitation training in treating with spasm cerebral palsy patients.Methods 128 spasm cerebral palsy patients in our hospital from February 2012 to May 2014 were selected and randomly divided into the observation group (68 cases) and the control group (60 cases).The patients of the control group were given massage,ganglioside intravenous treatment,the patients of the observation group were given acupuncture combined rehabilitation training on the basis of the control group.The total treatment was 3 months,after the treatment,the Ashworth score and the total effective effective rate of the two groups were compared.Results After treatment,the observation group of patients with Ashworth spasm rating scale significantly better than that of control group (P < 0.05),the observation group of patients and the control group after treatment in patients with Ashworth spasm of rating scale were significantly better than that of before treatment (P < 0.05),the treatment of patients with observation group total effective rate is significantly higher than control group (P< 0.05).Conclusions On the basis of the comprehensive treatment of acupuncture combined rehabilitation training therapy in patients with spastic type cerebral palsy treatment effect significantly,can significantly improve the patient' s level of limb muscle tension,worthy of clinical popularization and application.

OBJECTIVETo observe abnormal metabolic changes caused by ischemic cerebral apoplexy and the regulating action of Tongsaimai pellets on abnormal metabolism by analyzing the change of small molecules in plasma of ischemic cerebral apoplexy rat. To find the potential biomarkers, and to explore metabolic mechanisms of Tongsaimai pellets.
METHODRat models of middle cerebral artery occlusion was established with electric coagulation, and rats were divided into 4 groups, model group, sham-operation group, Tongsaimai pellets group and positive control group. Tongsaimai pellets and positive control group were orally administrated by 13.2 g x kg(-1) x d(-1) of crude drugs and 32 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1) of Nimodipine respectively, m odel and sham-operation group by equal volume of distilled water for a week. Plasma of model and sham-operation group were collected, and plasma of Tongsaimai pellets and positive control group were collected on the 1st, 3rd , 7th day after administration. Endogenous metabolites of four groups were determined with GC-MS. Partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) was applied to analyze multivariate data and set up model, and T-test was used in significant statistical analysis.
RESULTCompared with sham-operation group rats, pyruvic acid, taurine and hydroxyproline obviously increased in model group rats, while lactic acid, glyceric acid, aminomalonic acid, fructose, tryptophan and leucine significantly decreased, so these metabolites were potential metabolic biomarkers. These endogenous metabolites except taurine got restoration in Tongsaimai group rats.
CONCLUSIONAbnormal metabolite level in plasma can be certainly recovered by Tongsaimai pellets, and the treatment of Tongsaimai pellets can be connected with the regulation of related metabolic pathways.
