Objective To observe any therapeutic effect of transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation (TENS) on patients with shoulder-hand syndrome after stroke (SHSAS) and to examine the influence of TENS on sympathetic skin response (SSR).Methods Sixty-eight patients with SHSAS were randomly divided into a treatment group (35 cases) treated with routine rehabilitation training and TENS therapy and a control group (33 cases)treated with routine rehabilitation training only.The therapy for both groups lasted 3 weeks.The severity of pain and edema of the affected upper limb was assessed with a visual analogue scale (VAS) while sympathetic skin response was recorded from the affected upper limb before and after treatment.Results VAS scores improved significantly in the treatment group,and significantly more than in the control group.There was no significant difference in the SSR latencies,amplitudes or abnormality rates between the two groups before treatment.The latencies and abnormality rates of both groups improved significantly after treatment,but the improvement in the treatment group was more obvious.The SSR amplitudes did not change significantly after treatment in either group.There was a positive correlation between the SSR latencies and abnormality rates and the VAS scores,but no significant correlation between SSR amplitude and the VAS scores.Conclusions TENS therapy combined with routine rehabilitation training showed not only good clinical results,but also significant changes in SSR among patients with SHSAS.This indicates that SSR could be used to evaluate therapeutic effects in SHSAS patients.

Objective To investigate the prothetic effect of free grafting of microvascular anastomotic peroneal artery perforator flap when used to repair the donor tissue defects of wrap-around flap of toe.Methods From January 2008 to March 2013,twenty-six cases thumb avulsion at proximal and distal phalanx level with skin and nail bed defect caused by trauma were admitted to our hospital.After incising wrap-around flap of toe to repair the thumb defects,microvascular anastomotic peroneal artery perforator flap was transplanted freely to repair the donor site of it.Results The skin flaps of 26 cases all successfully survived.After a followed-up of 3 months to 4 years,the length of donor toes were the same as before.The appearance of skin flaps were no fat and clumsy and the abradability of their skin were well.Algesia,thalposis and thigmesthesia were partially recovery.Two point discrimination reached to 5-10 mm.There were no obvious uncomfortableness in donor feet when standing and walking except wearing flip-flops.Conclusion Free grafting of peroneal artery perforator flap is a good method to repair the donor defect caused by incising wrap-around flap of toe.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of arsenic trioxide (ATO) on the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in K562/A02 cells and to explore the correlation between VEGF and P-gp. METHODS: The inhibition rate of K562/A02 cell proliferation was detected by using methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium assay (MTT); the level of VEGF was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the expression rate of P-gp was determined by flow cytometry (FCM). RESULTS: 0.05 micromol/L ATO had no influences on the cell proliferation and the expression of VEGF in K562/A02 cells; 0.4 and 3.2 micromol/L ATO could significantly inhibit the K562/A02 cell proliferation and down-regulate the expression of VEGF in K562/A02 cells (P<0.05). The expression of P-gp did not changed after being exposed to 0.05 and 0.4 micromol/L ATO for 24, 48 and 72 hours (P>0.05). 3.2 micromol/L ATO could remarkably reduce the expression of P-gp in K562/A02 cells after 48- and 72-hour incubation with ATO (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The down-regulation of P-gp and VEGF after being exposed to ATO probably contributes to the reversion of multidrug resistance in K562/A02 cells. The level of VEGF may be related to the expression rate of P-gp in K562/A02 cells.

Objective:To explore the inhibitory effect of arsenic troixide (ATO) on the growth of human endometrial cancer HEC-1-A cells in vitro and in vivo. Methods:Tetrazolium salt assay (MTT) was used to compare the inhibitory effect of ATO on HEC-1-A cells with that of progesterone, medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) and cisplatin (CDDP). Flow cytometry and DNA electrophoresis were used to determine the effects of ATO on cell cycle and apoptosis. Human endometrial cancer xenografted model was established in nude mice. The tumor-bearing nude mice were randomly divided into the experimental groups: ATO low dose group (4 mg·kg-1·d-1), medium dose group (6 mg·kg-1·d-1), high dose group (8 mg·kg-1·d-1), CDDP positive control group (3 mg·kg-1·d-1) and saline negative control group. The drugs were administered intraperitoneally for 14 consecutive days, and then the tumor volume and tumor inhibition rate were calculated. Results: ATO 1-20 μmol/L and CDDP markedly inhibited the cell growth. The inhibitory effect of ATO was higher than that of CDDP. ATO 5 μmol/L treatment induced apoptosis and arrested cells at S and G2/M phase. ATO 4, 6, and 8 mg·kg-1·d-1 and CDDP 3 mg·kg-1·d-1 inhibited tumor volume by 50.97%, 75.58%, 56.92%, and 52.23%, respectively; and inhibited the tumor weight by 10.15%, 29.33%, 16.67%, and 14.69%, respectively. The difference was significant compared with negative control group (P<0.05). Conclusion:ATO inhibited the growth of endometrial cancer cells HEC-1-A in vitro and in vivo. It may become a novel therapeutic reagent for the treatment of endometrial cancer.
