Objective To investigate the distribution and synaptic connectivity of neuropeptide Y (NPY)-like immunoreactivity (IR) in Bullfrog retina, Rana Calesbeiana, especially in the inner plexiform layer. Methods Light microscopy immunofluorescence and post-embedding colloidal gold labeling electron microscopy techniques were employed in this study. Results NPY immunoreactivity was associated with a small population of amacrine cell bodies in the inner nuclear layer and cell processes, ramified with 3 distinct bands, in the inner plexiform layer. As for ultrastructure, quantitative analysis showed that NPY-IR amacrine cell processes were most often presynaptic to NPY negative amacrine cell processes (49.7%) and ganglion cell dendrites (49.3%). NPY-IR amacrine cells predominantly received synaptic input from bipolar cell axon terminals (86%), while a few input from other amacrine cell processes (14%). Conclusion NPY-IR in Bullfrog retina is mainly distributed in the inner part and predominately receives excitatory glutamate modulation from bipolar cells.

OBJECTIVE: A series of Bobath concept, Bobath theoretical hypothesis and clinical practice were summarized, to proVide a better understanding of Bobath concept involved in nervous tissues repairing and functional reconstruction. METHODS: Articles concerning the Bobath treatment for stroke-related literature were retrieved in Highwire press, MEDLINE, and Google from 2001 to 2009, using the key words of "Bobath concept, stroke physical therapy". Data of each study were extracted and analyzed following retrieval. Inclusion criteria:①Bobath concept and its theoretical hypothesis. ②New development of Bobath concept in clinical practice. Exclusion criteria: Repetitive studies. The results of retrieved literatura were analyzed. RESULTS: The theoretical basis of Bobath concept is based on present-day knowledge of motor control, motor learning, neural and muscle plasticity, and biomechanics. The latest theories and viewpoints are rasourced from International Bobath Instructors Training Association and the British Bobath Tutors Association. They expounded on the Bobath concept from linking participation, activities and underlying impairments, organization of human behavior and motor control, the consequences of injury and dysfunction in the execution of movement, neural and muscle plasticity, motor learning and so. This article also discusses several important questions which meet in clinical practice. CONCLUSION: Bobath therapy, as a traditional method for stroke rehabilitation, is constantly absorbing the research results from current neuroscience, psychology and other disciplines, and blended with other treatments to promote the development of neuro-rehabilitation medicine.

Objective] The treatment of pediatric asthma in remission period is summarized from the positive and negative aspects, in order to provide new ideas and methods for clinical treatment. [Methods] By consulting the related literatures on the traditional Chinese medicine treatment of children with asthma in remission phase, the paper mainly summarized the different physicians' understanding of pathogenesis and approaches to the treatment of pediatric asthma in remission stage. [Results]The treatment of physicians for pediatric asthma in remission phase can be divided into asthenia healthy qi and sthenia pathogenic factor syndrome.The treatment of healthy qi deficiency mainly includes treating lung,spleen,kidney seperately;curing lung-spleen,lung- kidney, spleen-kidney ;treating three viscera meanwhile.The therapy of pathogenic excess contains treating wind,phlegm,stasis respectively;curing phlegm-stasis. [Conclusion]The treatment of traditional Chinese medicine for pediatric asthma has a unique advantage in improving children's physique, reducing the frequency of asthma attacks, and improve children's life quality which has significant clinical effect.
