Objective To apply a hand function laserimager to evaluate the effect of acupuncture on hand dysfunction after stroke. Meth-ods From January to June, 2016, 18 stroke patients with upper limb dysfunction were divided into control group (n=9) and acupuncture group (n=9). The control group received routine medication and rehabilitation, while the acupuncture group received acupuncture in addi-tion. They were assessed with modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) of upper limb motor function and modified Bathel Index (MBI) before and after three-week treatment, while the region of interest (ROI) of their hands was tested with the hand func-tion laserimager. Results The scores of MAS and FMA improved after treatment in both groups (t>4.44, P<0.01), and improved in the score of MBI in the acupuncture group (t=3.95, P<0.01). The scores of MAS, FMA, and MBI improved more in the acupuncture group than in the control group (t>3.17, P<0.01). Meanwhile, the scores of ROI decreased in the affected hands after treatment (t>7.78, P<0.001), and de-creased more in the acupuncture group than in the control group (t=-2.23, P<0.05). No significant difference was observed in the scores of ROI of the unaffected hands (t=-0.11, P>0.05) between groups. Conclusion The hand function laserimager, which responds to the blood perfusion of the hand, can be used as a tool to evaluate the hand function.

Objective: To explore the factors affecting the prevalence of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) among HIV/AIDS patients, so as to provide insights into developing HAND prevention measures. Methods: HIV/AIDS patients aged 18 years and above in the Infection Department of Nanjing Second Hospital were selected.Demographic data, treatment regimen and blood biochemical indicators were collected. Depression was evaluated using Patient Health Questionnaire Depression Scale, frailty was evaluated using Chinese version of Tilburg Frailty Indicator, and HAND was evaluated by Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale. Factors affecting HAND were analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 440 questionnaires were allocated and 426 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective rate of 96.82%. The median age of patients investigated was 33.00 (interquartile range, 10.00) year. There were 407 males, accounting for 95.54%; 232 patients with bachelor degree or above, accounting for 54.46%; 171 patients with HAND, accounting for 40.14%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that educational level (bachelor degree or above, OR=0.291, 95%CI: 0.157-0.541), depression (OR=2.499, 95%CI: 1.530-4.083), frailty (OR=2.121, 95%CI: 1.307-3.441) and treatment regimen including efavirenz (OR=2.223, 95%CI: 1.367-3.615) were the influencing factors for HAND among HIV/AIDS patients. Conclusion Educational level, depression, frailty and use of efavirenz may be associated with HAND risk.

AIM: To investigate the effect of cyclin B1 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ASON) with liposomal transfection on proliferation of HL60 cells. METHODS: After cyclin B1 ASON with liposomal transfection was used in vitro co-culture with HL60 cells,the protein and mRNA expression levels of cyclin B1 were measured by flow cytometry and RT-PCR. The cell apoptosis was detected by electron microscopy, in situ cell apoptosis detection kit (POD),DNA agarose gel electrophoresis and flow cytometry. RESULTS: In cyclin B1 ASON group the protein and mRNA expression levels of cyclin B1 were significantly inhibited than those in sense oligodeoxynucleotide (SON) group and blank group. Morever,when the ASON concentration increased,the proliferation ratio of HL60 cells and CFU-HL60 clony unit were also significantly inhibited. The apoptosis of HL60 cells was also observed. CONCLUSION: Cyclin B1 ASON specifically inhibited its protein and mRNA expression levels as well as the HL60 cell proliferations and induced leukemia cell apoptosis. It's effect depended upon the concentration of ASON.

BACKGROUND: Numerous studies concerning dysferlin focus on muscle diseases (such as muscular dystrophy), but the relationship between membrane repair after exercise-induced muscle damage and dysferlin is little reported. OBJECTIVE: To observe the cell membrane permeability and expression levels of dysferlin and calpain3 in the rat gastrocnemius after acute eccentric exercise, so as to provide an theoretical reference for exploring the molecular mechanism of muscle regeneration and the exercise therapy of muscular diseases. METHODS: Thirty-two Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups including control, 24, 48 and 72 hours post exercise groups. The membrane permeability and expression levels of dysferlin and calpain3 were determined by immunohistochemistry, western blot assay and qRT-PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The activity of serum creatine kinase, and expression levels of calpain3 mRNA and dysferlin protein, as well as membrane permeability at 24 hours post exercise were significantly greater than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01). The expression level of dysferlin mRNA at 24 and 48 hours post exercise was significantly higher than that at 72 hours post exercise (P ＜ 0.05). Therefore, the damage to the skeletal muscle cell membrane was the most severe at 24 hours after eccentric exercise. Due to Ca2+influx, expression of calpain3 mRNA was activated, and then the damaged cell membrane was repaired by increasing the expression of dysferlin.

BACKGROUND : After femoral neck fracture, incidences of ischemic necrosis and bone non-healing are closely related to biomechanical characteristics of internal fixation devices. Compression stress can improve fracture healing, tension force can delay fracture healing, and shear stress can inhibit fracture healing. How to relieve shear stress and expand compression stress is of significance for theories and clinical applications.OBJECTIVE: To compare the biomechanical characteristics of the two geometric configurations of three cannulated compression screws in the fixation for femoral neck fracture and to provide a theoretical foundation in the treatment of femoral neck fracture.DESIGN : Observational contrast study.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, the 251 Hospital of Chinese PLA; Department of Orthopaedics, the Third Hospital, Hebei Medical University.PARTICIPANTS: The experiment was carried out in the Hebei Orthopaedic Institute from November 2002 to March 2003. Five cadavers including 4 males and 1 female with similar bone mineral density (BMD) were provided by Department of Anatomy, Hebei Medical University. X-ray photographs proved that all the cadavers did not have rheumatism, tuberculosis, tumor, fracture or deformity.METHODS: Ten femurs were randomly divided into inverted and upright isosceles triangle with 5 in each group. Femur samples with femoral neck fracture were fixed with three cannulated screws and measured with the biomechanical machine (CSS-44020, made in Changchun Experimental Researching Institute, provided by Hebei Orthopaedics Institute). The compression strength, torsibility and the maximal vertical loading were compared between the two configurations of screws.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:①Displacement of femoral head at 600 N and 750 N during torsibility test; ②torque-moment at 2°and 4°during torsibility test;③load during maximal vertical loading test.CONCLUSION: The effect of three cannulated compression screws configured as an inverted isosceles triangle on the treatment of femoral neck fracture is superior to that of three cannulated compression screws as an upright isosceles triangle.
