[Objective]To use urodynamic method to evaluate "free sacro-capsule"pre-operation and post-operation effect,also evaluate bladder and urethral function.[Method]Twenty children were included in this study.[Result]All children had none damage after operation.The PVR and DLPP of post-operative group are significantly decreased.The BC and MCC of post-operation group was significantly higher than pre-operation group(P

Objective To explore the clinical and imaging features of primary lateral sclerosis(PLS).Methods The clinical and imaging data of 3 patients with PLS were analysed.Results 3 patients included 2 females and 1 male.The onset of the disease was insidious.The initial symptoms included rigidity and weakness of right upper limb(case 1),rigidity and weakness of legs(case 2),and pseudobulbar palsy(case 3). As the disease progressed slowly,the patients presented with spastic paralysis of four extremities,reduced muscle strength(3 to 4 degree),clasp-knife like of muscular tension,hyperactivity of tendon reflexes,ankle clonus and presence of Babinski sign.In T2-weighted images of the brain MRI,the abnormal high signals were symmetrically situated in the motor cortex,the posterior limbs of internal capsules,cerebral peduncles and basilar part of pons.1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy(1HMRS) showed decreases of N-acetylasartate(NAA) and the ratio of N-acetylaspartate/Creatine(NAA/Cr) in the focal regions.Conclusion PLS presents with characteristic features of clinical symptoms,signs and abnormal changes of MRI.In addition,1HMRS may be helpful in diagnosis of this disease.

An electro-acupuncture stimulator for hemiplegia rehabilitation is designed, which adopts 51 series of SCMs and CPLD as the control unit to fulfill parameter setup, numerical display and separated multi-channel output.

Objective To explore the antitumor activities and mechanisms of bifid bacterial surface molecules,whole peptidoglycan(WPG).Methods First,large intestine cancer Lovo cell was cultured in vitro.Then,anti-proliferative effect and apoptosis inducing effect of WPG to LoVo cell were observed respectively by MTT assay and flow cytometry.Results In the group treated with WPG,the growth of LoVo cell was inhibited significantly in a dose-and time-dependent manner ;early apoptotic cells were greatly increased,and compared with the blank control group,a big difference existed(P

Objective To investigate the inhibitive effect of antisense VEGF165 cDNA on growth and angiogensis of human neuroblastoma in nude mouse models.Methods Three kinds of SH-SY5Y cells which had been stably transfected by sense VEGF165 cDNA,antisense VEGF165 cDNA and empty vector respectively,were inoculated subcutaneously to nude mice.The size of subcutaneous tumors was measured,and the morphology of tumor tissue was observed by microscope.The microvessel density(MVD)in tumor mass was analyzed by CD31 immunohistochemistry staining.Apoptotic cells were detected by the electron microscope.Results The growth of tumor mass,which was inoculated with antisense VEGF,significantly decreased in nude mice compared with empty vector group(P

Objective To observe the protective effect of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction (XZD) on vascular endothelial cells (VEC) injured by the serum of blood_stasis_syndrome ( BSS) rabbits. Methods The morphological features of VEC cultured with norma l rabbit serum (Group A), BSS rabbit serum(Group B), the serum of normal rabbit medicated with XZD(Group C) and the serum of BSS rabbit medicated with XZD(Group D) were observed respectively under light microscope and electron microscope. Results Under light microscope, VEC was shrinked, intercellular space widene d and cytoplasm contained dark granules in Group B. The change of intercellular space was not obvious in Group D. Under electron microscope, pinocytotic vesicle s increased, rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) decreased and dilated, mitochondr ia became smaller and indistinct and only a small amount of microvilli appeared on cell membrane with top expanded and merged in VEC of Group B as compared with Group A and Group C. Less RER but no dilatation and fewer microvilli without to p merged were found in VEC of Group B. Conclusion The serum of BSS rabbits c an injury normal VEC cultured in vitro and XZD exerts a certain protective effe ct on VEC injured by the serum of BSS rabbits.
