Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of acupuncture plus Bobath therapy in treating motor dysfunction of the core muscles in patients with hemiplegia after cerebral stroke.Method Totally 144 patients with post-stroke hemiplegia were divided into a control group, treatment group 1 and treatment group 2. The treatment group 1 was intervened by Bobath therapy, while the treatment group 2 was by abdominal acupuncture and scalp acupuncture in association with Bobath therapy. The recruited patients were examined for the manual muscle strength rating of the abdominal core muscles, Berg Balance Scale (BBS) score, and Barthel Index (BI) score on the day of admission, the 30th day and 60th day after admission.Result There were no significant inter-group differences in comparing the core muscle strength, BBS, and the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) on the day of admission (P>0.05). The core muscle strength, BBS, and ADL were significantly increased on the 30th and 60th day after admission in the three groups (P<0.05), and the scores in treatment group 2 were significantly higher than that in the control group and treatment group 1 (P<0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture plus Bobath therapy can significantly improve the motor dysfunction of the core muscles in patients with hemiplegia after cerebral stroke.

BACKGROUND: The population of male and female adolescents in China accounts for 1/5. Adolescents have much psychological bewilderment,troublesome and even diseases on sexual issues.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the development status quo and the regulation of adolescents' sexual physiology, sexual psychology, sexual knowledge and sexual education.DESIGN: A cross-sectional survey by employing students of junior high school as subjects.SETTING: A clinic for adolescent of a tertiary hospital.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 960 students aged between 14 and 19 years old of three junior high schools in Dalian city were selected as subjects between November and December of 2001.METHODS: Self-complied questionnaire was used in the survey based on the sexual psychological education situation scale for junior and senior high school students. Classes were randomly selected for anonymous survey based on voluntary principle.Answers to sex-related questions and differences between male and female students.RESULTS: The average age of menarche in female students was 12.96years old and the average age of first emission in male students was 13.89years old, which were consistent with the results of similar national researches. The incidence and frequency of masturbation and sexual impulse was significantly higher in males than females. There were significant differences in sexual concept and the understanding of sexual knowledge between males and females. The desire to affiliate with the opposite sex was far more than the real occurrence.CONCLUSION: The understanding of sexual knowledge in adolescent is not satisfied. Students are also not satisfied with the sexual education provided by their schools. Hence, school sexual education for adolescents should be enhanced with the involvement of community.

Objective To construct the eukaryotic expression vector with the mutant of hypoxia inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) that could over express nonhypoxic dependent HIF-1α and investigate its expression in eukaryotic cells PC12. Methods The coding sequence of HIF-1α was amplified from total RNA from the injured spinal cord of rats by means of RT-PCR. Then, overlapping extension PCR was employed to obtain one complete sequence encoding HIF-1α mutant without oxygen-sensitive degradation domain (ODD). By using gene recombination technique, the gene HIF-1α△ODD was inserted into eukaryotic expression vector _pEGFPC1 that contained a reporter gene of enhanced green fluorescent protein. The recombinant plasmid was successfully constructed and transfected into the neural cell line PC12. The expression of HIF-1α△ODD was analyzed by fluorescent observation and Western blot. Results A 2kb gene fragment encoding H1F-1α△ODD was successfully obtained by overlapping extension PCR. On this basis, the recombinant plasmid _pEGFPC1-HIF-1 α△ODD was constructed and testified with restriction enzyme digestion and DNA sequencing. After this recombinant plasmid was transfected into the neural cell line PCI2, both fluorescent observation and Western blot demonstrated that HIF-1α△ODD was over expressed under nonhypoxia conditions. Conclusion The eukaryotic expression vector _pEGFPC1-HIF-1α△ODD is successfully constructed and HIF-1α△ODD over expresses in transfected PCI2 cell lines.

Objective To investigate relationship between microRNA-200c and ZEB1 in cervical epithelial mesenchymal transition factor. Methods 50 cases diagnosed with cervical cancer whose tumor tissue were taken to be the experiment group.50 cases diagnosed with uterine myoma whose normal tissue were taken to be the control group.ZEB1 and microRNA-200c of uterine tissue were were detected.Results The average level of ZEB1 in the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05), and in cervical cancer, lymph node metastasis and the depth of myometrial invasion had statistically significant (P<0.05).In experimental group, microRNA-200c average was lower than control group (P<0.05), and in cervical cancer, different pathological grade group, lymph node metastasis and deep muscular layer infiltration had statistically significant(P<0.05).In experimental group, ZEB1 and microRNA-200c showed negative correlation(r =-0.270 P =0.001).Conclusion The expression level of ZEB1 in cervical cancer is higher, and the expression level of microRNA-200c in cervical cancer is lower, suggesting that the two factors may play an important role in the invasion and metastasis of cervical cancer.The correlation between the two factors suggests that microRNA-200c may be involved in the process of cervical cancer by ZEB1.

Objective To analyze and evaluate the safety and efficacy of modified Pie-crusting ( PC) technique for releasing medial tightness during primary total knee arthroplasty ( TKA) . Methods We completed primary TKA by the same performer with modified PC technique in 30 patients (34 knees) with genu varus from March 2014 to June 2016.By using a special curved scalpel with width limit of 3 mm and depth limit of 5 mm to poke the tension parts , we released the anterion bondle of superficial medial collateral ligament ( sMCL) and posteromedial corner structures ( PMCS) during tension happened in extension , and we released the posterior bondle of sMCL during tension happened in flexion .According to the gap value measured intraoperatively , we divided these cases into three groups: extension with flexion tension group ( 10 knees ) , extension tension group ( 13 knees ) , and flexion tension group (11 knees).The difference between medial and lateral gap value no more than 1 mm was defined as gap balance.We calculated the gap balance rate of each group .Series of weighted frontal X-ray were conducted at fixed period to evaluate the varus angle of the knee postoperatively.The range of motion (ROM), HSS scores and WOMAC scores were also recorded at the same time . Results Among the 34 knees , 31 knees reached the medial and lateral gap balance at both extension and flexion .There was a difference of 2 mm in medial and lateral gap value at extension in 1 knee and the same difference at flexion in the other 2 knees.The total postoperative gap balance rate was 91.2%( 31/34 ).The constrained inserts were implanted in 3 cases.No technical-related complications happened after the surgery.After the releasing procedure, the flexion gap value had an increase of 1 mm (range, 1-3mm) in the extension tension group , and the extension gap value had an increase of 1 mm ( range, 1-2 mm) in the flexion tension group, without significant difference (Z=-1.118, P=0.264).The ROM was 83.3°±14.7°preoperatively and 100.7°±14.2° postoperatively (t=-7.714, P=0.000).The median alignment of the knee was 11.5°(range, 7°-32°) preoperatively and 1° (range, 0°-4°) postoperatively (Z=-5.092,P=0.000).The HSS scores were (42.7 ±16.3) points preoperatively and (88.1 ± 9.9) points postoperatively (t=-21.868, P=0.000).The WOMAC scores were (76.2 ±8.2) points preoperatively and (11.4 ± 9.7) points postoperatively (t=31.726, P=0.000).All of them were significantly improved in comparison with those before the surgery. Conclusions Using modified PC technique is safe and effective in medial releasing during primary TKA .Both extension and flexion gap value will be affected by releasing tensed fiber at extension or flexion position .
