Chinese Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2011;33(9):648-651
Objective To study the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on rats'locomotor function after hemisectional spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods A model of hemisectional SCI was established at the T10 segment in 12 rats,which were then randomly divided into an SCI-rTMS group and an SCI-control group.Another 6 rats served as normal controls.The SCI-rTMS group received threshold rTMS daily for 4 weeks,while the SCI-control group was given sham rTMS.The normal control group was left without any treatment.BassoBeatti-Bresnahan (BBB) locomotor scores were recorded weekly.Motor evoked potential (MEP) was detected at the 28th day after the operation.Neurofilament-200 (NF-200) was detected with immunofluorescent staining of the spinal cord lesions. Results The BBB scores in the SCI-rTMS group improved more than those in the SCI-control group.MEP of the fight hindlimb was detected in the rTMS group,but not in the control group.Expression of NF-200 marker increased significantly more than in the rTMS group. Conclusions rTMS can improve locomotor function of rats after spinal cord hemisectioning,which may result from increased expression of NF-200 and the regeneration of axons.

To study the dynamic changes of CT perfusion parameters during the first 12 h in the embolic cerebral ischemia models. Local cerebral ischemia model were established in 7 New Zealand white rabbits. All CT scans were performed with a GE Lightspeed 16 multislice CT. Following the baseline scan, further CT perfusion scans were performed at the same locations 20 min, 1-6 h and 8, 10 and 12 h after the embolus delivery. Maps of all parameters were obtained by CT perfusion software at each time point. The brains, taken 12 h after the scan, were sliced corresponding to the positions of the CT slices and stained by 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC). On the basis of the TTC results, the ischemic sides were divided into 3 regions: core, penumbra and the relatively normal region. The changes of all parameters were then divided into 3 stages. In the first two hours (the first stage), the CBV dropped more remarkably in the core than in the penumbra but rose slightly in the relatively normal region while the CBF decreased and MTT, TTP extended in all regions to varying degrees. In the 2nd-5th h (the second stage), all the parameters fluctuated slightly around a certain level. In the 5th-12th h (the third stage), the CBV and CBF dropped, and MTT and TTP were prolonged or shortened slightly in the core and penumbra though much notably in the former while the CBV, CBF rose and MTT, TTP were shortened remarkably in the relatively normal region. We experimentally demonstrated that the location and extent of cerebral ischemia could be accurately assessed by CT perfusion imaging. The pathophysiology of the ischemia could be reflected by the CT perfusion to varying degrees.
