OBJECTIVETo compare the efficacy difference of analgesia and detumescence on ankle sprain among acupuncture at Xiaojie point combined with tendon regulation manipulation, acupuncture at Xiaojie point and tendon regulation manipulation.

METHODSSixty cases of ankle sprain were randomized into a combined therapy group, a Xiaojie point group and a tendon-regulation manipulation group, 20 cases in each one. The combined therapy of acupuncture at Xiaojie point and tendon regulation manipulation, the acupuncture at Xiaojie point and the simple application of tendon-regulation manipulation were applied respectively in the three groups, once a day, 3 treatments were required. The symptom score such as pain, ecchymosis, swelling and motor dysfunction and the total score were observed before and after treatment in the three groups. The different values of pain and swelling scores were compared before and after treatment in the three groups. The efficacy was compared among the groups.

RESULTSThe total effective rate was 100.0% (20/20) in each group. But the curative rate was 85.0% (17/20) in the combined group, 65.0% (13/20) in the Xiaojie point tion manipulation group. After treatment, the symptom scores of pain, ecchymosis, swelling and motor dysfunction and the total score were all improved as compared with those before treatment in the three groups (P < 0.01, P < 0.05). The pain score in either the combined therapy group or Xiaojie point group was lower than that in the tendon-regulation manipulation group after treatment (0.20 -/+ 0.41, 0.15 +/- 0.37 vs 0.60 +/- 0.50, both P < 0.05). Swelling score in the Xiaojie point group was different significantly from that in the tendon-regulation manipulation 0.49 vs 06.4 vs. 20+0.41, P < 0.05). The different value of pain score in either the combined therapy group or Xiaojie point group was higher than that in the tendon-regulation manipulation group before group after treatment (0.65 bined therapy group or Xiaojie point group was higher than that in the tendon-regulation manipulation group before and after treatment (2.35 +/- 0.59, 2.45 +/- 0.51 vs 2.00 +/- 0.46, both P < 0.05). The different value of swelling score in the tendon-regulation manipulation group was higher than that in the Xiaojie point group before and after treatment (2.30 +/- 0.57 vs 1.60 +/- 0.60, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONAcupuncture at Xiaojie point combined with tendon-regulation manipulation achieve an apparent effect of analgesia and detumescence on ankle sprain.

BACKGROUND:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells have the chemotaxis and homing role that promotes immune system reconstruction, eliminate residual lesions and prevent recurrence in patients.
OBJECTIVE:To observe therapeutic effect of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transplantation into high-metastatic potential hepatocellular carcinoma animal models on metastatic potential of high-metastatic potential hepatocellular carcinoma.
METHODS:Nude mouse models of high-metastatic potential hepatocellular carcinoma were established in vivo. In the experimental group, 5×105 cells were injected via the tail vein on day 7 after tumor inoculation, twice a week. In the control group, cellculture medium, 0.2 mL per mouse, was injected by the tail vein. After the start of the experiment, tumor volume was measured every 4 days. After tumor inoculation for 14 days, 21 days, 28 days, 35 days, 42 days, animal models were sacrificed, and then tumor mass and body mass were recorded to calculate the inhibition rate. PCR was employed to detect osteopontin, bone sialoprotein, and integrinα Ⅴ mRNA expression, as wel as bcl-2, bax, caspase3 mRNA expression.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The inhibition rate of tumor mass showed the best results in week 3. As time went on, the tumor inhibition rate was gradual y decreased. Metastasis-related biological factors showed a gradual down-regulated trend, indicating the polarization of tumor apoptotic indexes, that is, anti-apoptotic factor, bcl-2, showed a decreasing trend, while apoptotic factors, bax and caspase3, appeared to have a gradual y increased trend. These findings suggest that human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells effects to inhibit high-metastatic potential hepatocellular carcinoma animal models appear to vary with time. After human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transplantation for 3 weeks, the inhibition performance on high-metastatic potential hepatocellular carcinoma is the best, and then it weakens with time. Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are found to inhibit the metastatic potential of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Results The proportion of patients whose MMSE scale≥ 21 points and living ability score ranging from71 to 95 1 month and 3 months after care were higher than those of the control group.The satisfaction degree of patients in the observation group was also higher than the control group. Conclusions Humanistic care can significantly improve the cognitive dysfunction and living ability of patients with Alzheimer's disease,besides,family members of patients are more satisfied with this nursing model.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To illustrate the effect of methylene blue ( MB) on T-lymphocyte subsets and oxidative stress of the thymus in rats with paraquat ( PQ) poisoning.METHODS: Male SD rats ( n=40) were randomly assigned to 4 groups:normal group, control group, low-dose (2 mg? kg-1? d-1 ) MB group and high-dose (4 mg? kg-1? d-1 ) MB group.After 72 h, the pathological morphological changes of the thymus were observed under microscope with HE staining. The SOD activity and MDA content were measured by colorimetry method.The expression of Bcl-2, Bax, CD4 and CD8 was determined by immunohistochemical method.RESULTS:In MB group, the thymus tissue showed good corticomedul-lary demarcation.MDA content decreased and SOD activity increased, indicating that the ability of antioxidation enhanced. Bcl-2 and Bax expression was down-regulated, Bcl-2/Bax ratio increased, and CD4 positive cells increased.CONCLU-SION:MB protects against oxidative damage induced by PQ, and regulates the distribution of T-lymphocyte subsets in the cortex and medulla, thus relieving the persistent body damage.
