Objective To explore the effect of robot-assisted gait training on the standing and walking balance of persons with acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) resulting from hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD).Methods Thirty-six persons with AFP resulting from HFMD were randomly divided into a control group and a training group,each of 18.Both groups were given conventional rehabilitation training,while the training group was additionally provided with robot-aided gait training.The control group received additional massage of their affected limbs.Before and after 15 days of treatment the subjects' standing and walking ability were evaluated using parts D and E of the gross motor function (GMFM) scale.Their balance was quantified using the Berg balance scale (BBS) and integrated surface electromyograms were recorded.Results There were no significant differences between the two groups before the treatment.After 6 weeks of treatment the average scores of both groups had improved significantly,with a significantly bigger increase observed in the training group.After the treatment,the average GMFM and BBS scores of the training group were significantly higher than those of the control group.Conclusion Gait training in addition to conventional rehabilitation training can significantly improve the standing,walking and balance of patients with HFMD resulting from AFP and promote their recovery.

BACKGROUND: There is no uniform standard for acromioclavicular dislocation. Clavicular hook plate fixation is a commonly used fixation method clinically, but minimally invasive ligament reconstruction technology and arthroscopic surgery have become a research hotspot. OBJECTIVE: To observe the application value of suture bridge with thread anchor under arthroscopy in the treatment of acromioclavicular dislocation. METHODS: Patients with Tossy type III acromioclavicular dislocation who were admitted to Department of Orthopedic Surgery of General Hospital of Jizhong Energy Xingtai Mining Group between January 2016 and April 2018 were selected as the subjects. The patients were randomly divided into two groups. The patients in the arthroscopy group were treated with arthroscopic suture bridge technique with suture anchor for reduction and fixation, while those in the clavicle hook plate group were treated with clavicular hook plate for internal fixation. The length of surgical incision, duration of surgery, hospitalization time and time to return to work of both groups were recorded. The shoulder function was evaluated according to the Lazzcano criterion of curative effect at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery. The visual analogue scale score of shoulder pain, abduction and raising, forward bend and raising were compared between the two groups. All patients were followed up for 1 year to record the occurrence of complications. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of General Hospital of Jizhong Energy Xingtai Mining Group. All subjects signed the informed consent. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) There was no significant difference in the duration of surgery between the two groups (P > 0.05). The surgical incision, hospitalization time and time to return to work of the arthroscopy group were significantly better than those of the clavicle hook plate group (P < 0.01). (2) According to the Lazzcano criterion of curative effect, the excellent and good rate of curative effect in the arthroscopy group (84%) was significantly better than that in the clavicle hook plate group (66%) at 3 months after surgery (P < 0.05). The excellent and good rates of curative effect in the arthroscopy group at 6 and 12 months after surgery were higher than those in the clavicle hook plate group (P > 0.05). (3) Visual analogue scale scores of the two groups showed a decreasing trend at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery (P < 0.01). The visual analogue scale score of arthroscopy group was significantly lower than that of the clavicle hook plate group at the same time point (P < 0.01). (4) Angles of abduction and raising, forward bend and raising of both groups showed an increasing trend at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery (P < 0.01). The angles of abduction and raising, forward bend and raising of the arthroscopy group were larger than those of the clavicle hook plate group at the same time point (P < 0.01). (5) The 1-year follow-up results showed that the incidence of complications in the arthroscopy group (6%) was significantly lower than that in the clavicle hook plate group (63%) (P < 0.01). (6) Compared with clavicular hook plate fixation, the technique of suture anchors under arthroscopy has the advantages of small trauma, quick recovery, fewer complications and no need to remove endografts again. Meanwhile, the surgery can also clearly diagnose the concomitant lesions in the joints and treat them when necessary, so as to improve the treatment effect.

Objective　To study the indication, contraindication and short-term clinical effects of stereotactic radiotherapy (X-knife) in lung cancer. Methods　A total of 56 cases (Treatment group) of lung cancer were treated with X-knife composing of the modern 3-D treatment planning system and the stereotactic body frame, and SL-75 accelerator. And another 53 cases only treated with routine external radiation served as the control. In treatment group, 42 cases received 50 Gy radiation, at 2 Gy per day, 5 d per week in the upper mediastinum, hilus of lung, below the primary focus first and then underwent X-knife for the primary focuses, and other 14 recurrent and metastatic cases received irradiation of 8-12 Gy per day, 5 d by X-knife alone. Results　The actually reexamination rate for 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after X-knife treatment in 78 focuses from 56 cases was 79.5% (62/78), 89.8% (70/78), 87.2% (68/78) and 78.2% (61/78) respectively. The focuses reappeared in 3 months after the treatment and the growth rates of focus in 3, 6, and 12 month after the treatment were 2.6% (2/78), 5.1% and 9% (7/78) respectively. There were 2 focuses received a second treatment with X-knife because no change after the first one. Both the 1-and 2-year survival rates of 36 cases of the primary lung cancer in the treatment group were higher than that of control group (89.1%, 53.9% and 77.4%, 39.6%). Conclusion　The stereotactic radiotherapy is of applicable and prospective in the treatment of lung cancer. The indications include: ①As a boost dose in case when primary focus is less than 5 cm after the first external radiotherapy may reduce the exposure of lung tissue to x-ray and the occurrence of radiation pneumonia; ②Treatment for the recurrence after radiotherapy and operation; ③Radical treatment for the metastatic focus less than 5 cm. Attention must be paid to when multiple treatment is carried on the volume of the focus, the Karnofsky scores and the general condition when stereotactic radiotherapy combined with X-knife for lung cancer.

OBJECTIVETo standardize the experimental procedure of the gene test for autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxias (ADCA), and provide the basis for quantitative criteria of the dynamic mutation of spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) genes in Chinese population.

METHODSGenotyping of the dynamic mutation loci of the SCA1, SCA2, SCA3, SCA6 and SCA7 genes was performed, using florescence PCR-capillary electrophoresis followed by DNA sequencing, to investigate the variation range of copy number of CAG tandem repeat of the genes in 263 probands of ADCA pedigrees and 261 non-related normal controls. Based on the sequencing result, the bias of the CAG copy number estimation using capillary electrophoresis with different DNA controls was compared to analyze the technical detailes of the electrophresis method in testing the dynamic mutation sites.

RESULTSPCR products containing dynamic mutation loci of the SCA genes showed significantly higher mobility than that of molecular weigh marker with relatively balanced GC content. This was particularly obvious in the SCA2, SCA 6 and SCA7 genes whereas the deviation of copy number could be corrected to +/-1 when known CAG copy number fragments were used as controls. The mobility of PCR products was primarily related to the copy number of CAG repeat when the fragments contained normal CAG repeat. In the 263 ADCA pedigrees, 6 (2.28%) carried SCA1 gene mutation, 8 (3.04%) had SCA2 mutation and 81 (30.80%) harbored SCA3 mutation. The gene mutation of SCA6 and SCA7 was not found. The normal variation range of the CAG repeat was 17-36 copies in SCA1 gene, 13-30 copies in SCA2, 14-39 copies in SCA3, 6-16 copies in SCA6 and 6-13 copies in SCA7. The heterozygosity was 76.1%, 17.7%, 74.4%, 72.1% and 41.3%, respectively. The mutation range of the CAG repeat was 49-56 copies in SCA1 gene, 36-41 copies in SCA2, 59-81 copies in SCA3. Neither homozygous mutation of an SCA gene nor double heterozygous mutation of the SCA genes was observed in the study.

CONCLUSIONThe copy number of the CAG repeat in SCA genes could be calculated accurately based on the result of florescence PCR-capillary electrophoresis when limited amount of known repeat copy number controls were used. Our result supported that the notion that SCA3 gene mutation was the most common cause for ADCA, and the obtained data would be helpful for establishing quantitative criteria of the dynamic mutation of the SCA genes in Chinese.
