ObjectiveTo study the effect the low level laser irradiation in nostril combined with the electric stimulation of cerebellum on acute cerebral infarction.Methods88 patients with acute cerebral infarction were randomly divided into two groups, 45 cases in the study group who were accepted level laser irradiation in nostril combined with the electric stimulation of cerebellum and the normal medicine therapy, 43 cases in the control group who were accepted the normal medicine therapy only. The effects of two groups were observed.ResultsThe scores of the nervous function defect degree and the cerebrovascular dynamics indexes of study group were obviously increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01) compared with those before treatment. The indexes of blood viscosity were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.01).However, all these indexes of the control group showed no significantly difference before and after treatment. ConclusionThe low level laser irradiation in nostril combined with the electric stimulation of cerebellum therapy is effective on acute cerebral infarction.It is helpful for early comprehensive recovery of motor function of the hemiplegic limbs.

Objective: To investigate the influence of astragalosides (AST) and Panax notoginseng saponins (PNS) combination on oxidative stress of brain tissues in C57BL/6 mice with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. Methods: Eighty C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into sham-operated group, untreated group, high-dose combination group (AST at a dose of 220 mg/kg plus PNS at a dose of 230 mg/kg), medium-dose combination group (AST at a dose of 110 mg/kg plus PNS at a dose of 115 mg/kg), low-dose combination group (AST at a dose of 55 mg/kg plus PNS at a dose of 57.5 mg/kg), AST (110 mg/kg) group, PNS (115 mg/kg) group and edaravone (4 mg/kg) group. AST and PNS were administered by gavage once daily for 4 days and edaravone was administered by intraperitoneal injection twice daily for 4 days. On the fourth day, bilateral common carotid arteries were ligated for 20 minutes to induce cerebral ischemia, followed by 60 minutes of reperfusion. Ischemic brain tissue was used to prepare tissue homogenate, then contents of malonaldehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH) and nitric oxide (NO), and activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in the homogenate were detected. Twoxtwo analysis of variance of factorial design was used to analyze whether there was an interaction between AST at 110 mg/kg and PNS at 115 mg/kg. Results: Compared with sham-operated group, contents of MDA and NO, and activity of NOS in the untreated group were remarkably increased (P<0.01), activity of SOD and content of GSH were decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the untreated group, content of MDA in the AST group was decreased (P<0.01) and activity of SOD was increased (P<0.01), however, contents of GSH and NO and activity of NOS had no obvious changes (P>0.05). Contents of MDA and NO in the PNS group was decreased as compared with the untreated group (P<0.01), but activities of SOD and NOS and content of GSH had no changes (P>0.05). Contents of MDA and NO and activity of NOS in brain tissues in the edaravone group were decreased (P<0.01, P<0.05), and activity of SOD was increased (P<0.05), while content of GSH had no changes (P>0.05). Contents of MDA and NO and activity of NOS in brain tissue in the AST and PNS combination groups were decreased (P<0.01, P<0.05), the activity of SOD increased (P<0.01, P<0.05), the content of GSH increased (P<0.01, P<0.05), and activity of SOD and content of GSH were increased (P<0.01, P<0.05). The results of analysis of variance of factorial design showed that there were interactions between AST (110 mg/kg) and PNS (115 mg/kg) (P<0.01). Conclusion: Combination of AST (110 mg/kg) and PNS (115 mg/kg) has a restraint effect on the early oxidative stress injury in the brain after ischemia-reperfusion, and the combination has a synergistic or additive effect.

Objective To investigate the CT and MRI findings of solid-cystic papillary epithelial neoplasm of pancreas, and to improve the diagnosis ability of the disease. Methods CT was performed in all 3 patients with solid-cystic papillary epithelial neoplasm of pancreas proved surgically and pathologically. Of all 3 patients, plain and dynamic enhanced MRI was performed in 1 patient. Both clinical characteristics and CT and MRI findings were analyzed retrospectively. Results All 3 patients were young female without jaundice and were found to have giant solid-cystic mass in the head of pancreas. In 1 of 3 patients, calcification was found in the mass on CT scan. One patient was found to have mild pancreatic duct dilation. No intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct dilation was showed in 3 patients. MRI findings in one patient demonstrated mixed signal intensity on T 1WI and T 2WI. On enhanced CT and MRI, the wall of cyst and solid portions of the mass showed obvious enhancement. Conclusion CT and MRI findings of solid-cystic papillary epithelial neoplasm of pancreas are characteristic, and the disease can be preoperatively diagnosed combined with the clinical feature.

The clinical data of a child diagnosed with β-ketothiolase deficiency in Children′s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University in September 2018 were reviewed, and nutritional intervention and follow-up were carried out.The male child was 1 year and 4 months old, and he had clinical manifestations, including vomiting, diarrhea, mental depression and repeated metabolic acid poisoning.Gene detection: heterozygous variation of ACAT1 gene c. 401T>C (p.M134T) and c. 481T > C (p.Y161H). This study was mainly aimed at children with β-ketothiolase deficiency for nutritional treatment of individualized nutrition therapy, suggests that energy supply should be guaranteed and protein and fat intake should be limited in acute stage, and protein and fat intake should be increased gradually in remission stage, which can not only ensure growth and development, but also reduce the occurrence of metabolic crisis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of comprehensive rehabilitation therapy on movement function of stroke patients.Methods121 cases of acute stroke were randomly divided into the rehabilitation group (n=59) and control group (n=62). Patients of the rehabilitation group were treated with Bobaths and motive relearning method. Cases of the control group were treated with ordinary rehabilitation. All patients were assessed by the clinical neural function-defect assessment, concise Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA) and modified Barthel index (MBI).ResultsThe scores of the clinical neural function-defect assessment set, FMA, and MBI of two groups were not different before treatment (P>0.05), while there was a significant improvement after treatment (P<0.01), and scores of the rehabilitation group was significantly higher than that of the control group.ConclusionComprehensive rehabilitation therapy can facilitate the function recovery, and gain a good functional prognosis to the stroke patients.

Objective To study the effect of schistosomiasis transmission interruption model based on intensive agriculture in hilly endemic areas,so as to provide the reference for the similar endemic areas. Methods Based on the development of in-tensive agriculture in Guanghan City,a comprehensive demonstration area of schistosomiasis control with measures such as new rural construction,hardening ditches,the adjustment of industrial structure and water remediation measures was constructed. Ji-nhua,Shiguan and Hongyan villages were chosen as the evaluation sites to comparatively analyze the indexes of intensive agri-culture and schistosomiasis control effects. Results Compared with the demonstration area before construction,in 2014,the harden rates of ditches and village roads were increased by 49.57%and 39.33%respectively;and the proportion of agricultural machinery increased by 25%. The positive rate of serological tests of schistosomiasis was decreased by 81.74%. The Oncomela-nia hupensis snail area was decreased from 2.44 hm2(2007)to 0(2014). The awareness rate of schistosomiasis control knowl-edge and correct behavior rate of the residents were increased from 51.28% and 90.85% to 91.29% and 97.69% respectively. The experience of the demonstration area ensured the entire Guanghan District achieved the schistosomiasis transmission inter-ruption criterion at the end of 2014. Conclusions The schistosomiasis control model of intensive agriculture combined with oth-er comprehensive measures has a good effect on interrupting the endemic of schistosomiasis,and it can realize the sustainable development of the agricultural economy and schistosomiasis control.
