Objective To investigate the effect of elispheric motion on balance and walking ability of hemiplegic patients after stroke. Methods From September to December, 2016, 40 hemiplegic patients after stroke were randomly divided into control group (n=20) and ob-servation group (n=20). Both groups received conventional rehabilitation, additionally, the control group received juggling ball training, and the observation group received elispheric motion combined with juggling ball training, 20 minutes a day, six days a week for six weeks. They were assessed with the Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Sensory (FMA-S), Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Lower Extremity (FMA-LE), Berg Bal-ance Scale (BBS) and TimedUp and GoTest (TUGT) before and six weeks after training. Results After training, the scores of FMA-S, FMA-LE, BBS significantly increased (t>10.012, P<0.05) in both groups, and were higher in the observation group than in the control group (t>2.129, P<0.05);the time of TUGT significantly shortened (t>10.001, P<0.001) in both groups, and were shorter in the observation group than in the control group (t>4.669, P<0.05). Conclusion Elispheric motion can facilitate to improve the balance and walking ability of hemi-plegic patients after stroke.

The contents of schisandrin, schizandrin A, B and C were determined by HPLC, and the effects of the climate factors and altitude on lignin contents were analyzed in order to select the optimal cultivation area of S. chinensis. The lignin contents were analyzed by HPLC using a ZORBAX SB-C18 column (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm). The column temperature and detection wave length were set at 35 degrees C and 254 nm, respectively. Methanol-water was used as the mobile phase in gradient elution mode and the flow-rate was 1.0 mL min(-1). The method had a good repeatability, stability and accuracy. The correlation of climate factors and lignins contents was analyzed by SPSS software. The results showed that the schizandrin A content in S. chinensis fruits were higher than 0.4% in Ji'an, Liuhe, Antu and Fusong in Jilin province, which met the quality requirement. It had significant linear negative correlation relationship between schisandrin, schizandrin A, B and altitude, the contents decreased with the increase of altitude. The significant negative linear fitting coefficient was 0.844 1 between schisandrin and altitude; but it had not significant correlation between schizandrin C and altitude. A significant positive correlation of climate factors and the contents of S. chinensis lignins were mainly the temperature factors (the average annual temperature, the highest temperature in July, the average temperature in July, the highest temperature in January, the average temperature in January) and precipitation factor (average annual precipitation), which reveals that higher temperature and precipitation were helpful to the formation and accumulation of lignins of S. chinensis. So the cultivation area of S. chinensis should be in the low elevations region with warm and rainy climate.

OBJECTIVETo observe the change of peripheral blood Th17 cells in patients with different kinds of CRSwNPs and the relationship between the frequency of Th17 cells and inflammatory cell density in nasal polyps tissue, and to explore the correlation between levels of peripheral blood Th17 cells and prognosis of patients with CRSwNPs.METHODSEighty one patients with CRSwNPs and 20 controls were recruited in this research. Flow cytometer was used to detect the expression of peripheral blood Th17 cells. The number per 10000μm2 of infiltrated inflammatory cells in nasal polyp tissue (including eosinophils, neutrophils, lymphocytes and plasma cells) was counted at a high-power field. The CT scores were evaluated by Lund-Mackay system and the nasal endoscopy scores were graded according to Lund-Mackay methods. RESULTSThe percentages of Th17 cells in patients with E-CRSwNPs and NE-CRSwNPs were 2.10% (3.75%, 1.40%)和1.10% (1.70%, 0.73%). There was significant difference between the two groups (Mann-WhitneyU=358.0,Z=-2.965, P=0.001). Furthermore, a positive association between the percentage of Th17 cells in peripheral blood and the eosinophil density of nasal polyp (r=0.408,P<0.001) was demonstrated. The percentage of Th17 cell in peripheral blood was significantly correlated with the endoscopic score of CRSwNPs at third month after the operation (r=0.458, P<0.001).CONCLUSIONThl7 might be involved in the pathogenesis and prognosisof eosinophilic CRSwNPs.
