Objective To assess the therapeutic effect of music- regulated laser therapy on mild and moderate primary hypertension (PH) so as to provide clinical evidence for the development of an effective non-drug therapy for hypertension. Methods One hundred mild and moderate PH patients were divided into obser-vation ( n = 50 ) and control groups ( n = 50 ) according to their stage of hypertension. There were two phases of treatment with 6 weeks in each phase for a total of 12 weeks. In the first phase, patients in the observation group received music-regulated laser therapy while the control group received drug therapy. In the second phase, the treatments were reversed, with the observation group receiving the drugs. The blood pressure and quality of life (QOL) of all the patients was evaluated after each phase. Results Before therapy there were no significant differences in average blood pressure or QOL between the groups. After the first phase, systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) had been reduced significantly in both groups, but the decrease was significantly greater in the control group. The score on each item of the QOL evaluation was not significantly different between the two groups. After the second phase, blood pressure had decreased further in the observation group, but no significant change was observed in the control group, and there was no significant difference in blood pressure between two groups. The scores on each item of the QOL evaluation were not significantly different between the two groups, but average somatic symptoms, healthy and pleasant feelings, task perform-ance and life satisfaction were significantly ameliorated in both groups. Conclusions Music-regulated laser therapy can lower the blood pressure of mild and moderate PH patients effectively. Compared with antihyperten-sion drugs, music-regulated laser therapy provides a weaker effect in lowering blood pressure, but plays an e-quivalent role in improving the QOL of patients.

Objective Using surface electromyography (sEMG) techniques to investigate the patterns of frequency domain indexes of sEMC signals recorded from adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients' paraspinal muscles. Methods Twenty-five AIS patients were enrolled. All the patients undertook the Biering Sorensen test ( BST) ,the object-lifting test and a semi-bridge test, the ME3000P sEMG instrument was applied to record the electric activities of paraspinal muscles (convex/concave) of all subjects, and the time domain indexes such as averaged EMG(AEMG)and spectrum area(SPA) were analyzed, values in three tests were compared with one way ANOVA. Results The differences of AEMGs and SPAs on both convex and concave sides among the three tests showed no statistical significances (P = 0. 10,0.23, 0. 24 and 0. 45, respectively). Conclusions Any of the Biering Sorensen test( BST) , the object-lifting test or the semi-bridge test can be used to test the electric activities of paraspinal muscles (convex/concave) of AIS patients.

Objective To study the influencing elements in x-Gal staining method and optimize the reactive conditions so that nonspecific background can be eliminated and grafted exogenous cells carrying LacZ gene can be discerned correctly. Methods C17 2 cells (carrying lzcZ gene) were injected into the right lateral ventricle both in the adult and newborn animals. After one week they were perfused using two methods, then the slices were stained at different pH and incubating time respectively. The X-gal positive cells in hippocampus were counted under light microscope. Results Background staining in this method has close correlation with the species and age of the host animals and it decreases when pH is higher or incubating time is shorter. The results are the best when pH 9 5 and the incubating time is 1*!h.Conclusion The reliability of X-gal staining method depends on optimization of several parameters, including pH, incubating time, perfusion etc. It is necessary to establish the correspondent controls.;
