Objective To investigate the effect of lower limb rehabilitation training robot combined with task-oriented training on walking ability after stroke. Methods From February 2014 to August 2015,74 consecutive patients with post-stroke who received rehabilitation therapy and met the inclusion criteria admitted to the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine,Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University were collected prospectively. They were all the patients with the first-ever stroke for 1 to 12 months. They were divided into either an observation group (n = 39)or a control group (n = 35)according to whether they were treated with the lower-limb rehabilitation robot. The patients of both groups received task-oriented training,2 times a day,once for 20 min,5 days a week for 12 weeks. The observation group was also treated with the lower-limb rehabilitation training robot,1 time a day,once for 30 min,5 days a week. Berg balance scale,Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA),timed up-and-go test (TUG)and knee flexion active range of motion (KFAROM)were used to assess the efficacy. Results (1)After treatment,the Berg scale and FMA scale scores were increased in the observation group and the control group compared with before treatment. There was significant difference (Berg scale:28 ±9 vs. 22 ±9,29 ±9 vs. 24 ±9;FMA scores:47 ± 8 vs. 36 ± 8,40 ± 6 vs. 36 ± 7;all P < 0. 01),however,there was no significant difference between the two groups (P <0. 05),and there was significant difference in FMA scores between the 2 groups (P < 0. 01 ). The differences of Berg scale scores in the observation group and the control group were 10. 75 + 0. 30 and 4. 71 + 0. 14 respectively before and after treatment. There was no significant difference between the 2 groups (t = 0. 95,P = 0. 345). The differences of FMA scores in the observation group and the control group were 5. 8 ±0. 6 and 4. 9 ±0. 8 before and after treatment (t =5. 16,P <0. 01). (2)After treatment,the tug test and KFAROM of the observation group and the control group were better than those before treatment. There were significant differences (TUG test:35 ± 13 s vs. 56 ± 18 s,53 ± 17 s vs. 58 ± 18 s;KFAROM:82 ± 24° vs. 60 ± 23°,63 ± 23° vs. 57 ± 26°;all P < 0. 01),and there were significant differences between the 2 groups (all P < 0. 01). The differences of the TUG test in the observation group and the control group before and after treatment were 21. 5 ± 5. 0 and 4. 6 ± 0. 6 s respectively. There was significant difference between the 2 groups (t = 9. 55,P < 0. 01);the differences of KFAROM in the observation group and control group before and after treatment were 5.8 ±0.6° vs. 4.9 ±0.8° respectively. There was significant differences between the 2groups (t =4.17,P <0. .01). Conclusion Lower limb rehabilitation training robot combined with task-oriented training may improve the lower extremity motor function,walking ability,knee flexion joint activity of the patients after stroke,but the improvement effect of the lower limb balance is not obvious.

Purpose To explore the diagnostic value of multiple image technique derived from dual-energy CT in arterial+parenchymal phase scan mode in detecting pancreatic adenocarcinoma so as to provide more valuable information for clinical treatment.Materials and Methods Thirty two patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma proved pathologically underwent dual-phase scan with dual-source CT.Linear blend image,non-linear blend image and iodine map were acquired.The absolute enhancement value of tumor (AEV),the relative enhancement value of tumor (REV),enhancement ratio (ER) of tumor to pancreatic parenchyma,and the image contrast to noise ratio (CNR) were also calculated,so that the diagnostic value and the ability image in two phases to display the pancreatic adenocarcinoma lesions could be assessed.Results On arterial phase,the differences in AEV,REV and CNR value were significant among the three groups images (P＜0.05).On parenchymal phase,the difference in REV,ER,and CNR value were also significant among the three groups (P＜0.05).When the three sequences on the 2 phases were compared with each other,the differences in AEV and REV value of tumor tissues were significant among the groups (P＜0.05).Moreover,the differences of ER value in linear blend image and CNR in the iodine map were significant in dual phase enhancement (P＜0.05).Conclusion Dualenergy CT enhanced scan mode on dual phase combined with multiple sequences can improve the sensitivity in detection of pancreatic adenocarcinoma lesions.

Objective Toinvestigatetheeffectofpowerelectricalstimulation(PES)incombination withtask-specifictrainingonlowerextremitymotorfunctioninstrokepatientswithfootdrop.Methods Fifty patients with poststroke foot drop were enrolled retrospectively. They were divided into either an experimental group or a control group (n=25 in each group). The control group received routine rehabilitation treatment. On this basis,the experimental group was given PES in combination with task-oriented training. Both groups of patients were trained 2 times a day,once for 40 minutes,5 days a week for 6 weeks. The ankle active range of motion,plantar flexor muscle tension,and tibialis anterior muscle strength were determined before and after treatment. The balance and lower extremity motor function of the patients were assessed by using Berg balance scale score,Fugl-Meyer lower extremity score,modified Barthel index,and Holden walk grading. At thesametime,thewalkingspeedandsteplengthbeforeandaftertreatmentwerecompared.Results Six weeks after treatment,the ankle activity,plantar flexors tension,and tibialis anterior muscle strength scores in patients of the experimental group were improved compared with before treatment,and each indicator was significant better than the control group (t=6. 261,-6. 163,and 2. 968,respectively;all P<0. 05). Berg balance scale,walking speed and step length scores were also improved as compared with before treatment, and each indicator was better than the control group (t=10. 733,9. 074,and 9. 013,respectively;all P<0.01). The lower limb motion scores,modified Barthel indexes,and Holden walk grading scores were improved compared with before treatment,and each indicator was significantly better than the control group (t=3.261,7.573,and4.010,respectively;allP<0.05).Conclusion Usingpowerelectricalstimulation in combination with task-oriented training may effectively improve the lower extremity motor function in stroke patients with foot drop.

Gene deletion vector pLJ04(pKC1139∷bkdF+bkdH)was used to disrupt bkdFGH in Streptomyces avermitilis 76-02-e,an industrial producer of anthelmintic avermectin.The disruptants were confirmed by PCR.Shake flask experiment and HPLC analysis showed that the mutant lost the ability to produce avermectins.As it is expected,the mutant,named S.avermitilis bkd76-3,could restore the ability of producing avermectins when the feeding of methylbutyric acid and isobutyric acid to its fermentations was carried out.The addition of cyclohexanecarboxylic acid(CHC)into fermentations of the S.avermitilis bkd76-3 allowed for production of four components,two of which was confirmed as CHC-B1 and CHC-A2 by LC/MS analysis,respectively.
