Objective:To explore the clinical therapeutic effect of comprehensive rehabilitative treatment on dyspha-gia after acute cerebral stroke .Methods :A total of 78 patients with dysphagia after acute cerebral stroke ,who visi-ted to our hospital from Jun 2011 to Jun 2012 ,were selected ,randomly and equally divided into Vitalstim electrical stimulus plus swallowing training group (rehabilitation treatment group ) and traditional swallowing training group (routine training group) .Patients received Kubota's water drinking test before and after treatment .Therapeutic effects were observed ,compared and statistically analyzed .Results:Total effective rate of rehabilitation treatment group was significantly higher than that of routine training group (92.3% vs .74.3% ,χ2 = 4.191 , P= 0.041 );mean declining amplitude of swallowing function score in rehabilitation group was significantly higher than that of routine training group [ (2.0 ± 0.5) scores vs .(1.1 ± 0.6) scores , t=5.284 , P=0.032] .Conclusion:Comprehen-sive rehabilitation training can significantly improve dysphagia caused by cerebral stroke .

Objective To explore the effect of status epilepticus(SE) on learning and memory and expression of phosphorylated c-AMP response element binding protein(pCREB) in hippocampus in developmental rats.Methods Developmental male SD rats were assigned randomly to two groups:the SE rats,induced by intraperitoneal injection of pentylenetetrazole(PTZ);normal saline(NS) control group,received saline intraperitoneal.Learning and memory test with the Morris water maze and Y maze were performed at 7 days after SE.After testing,a subset of rats were killed and the brain was evaluated for pCREB immunostaining,an important transcription factor underlying learning and memory.Results In SE group,the mean escape latency of searching the platform significantly prolonged(P

Objective To investigate the relationship of placental vascular anastomosis and physical development and morbidity of the disease in twin neonates.Methods Fourteen pairs of twin neonates deliveried from Sep.2005 to Aug.2009 were enrolled in Newborn Intensive Care Unit,the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University.These twins were divided into 2 groups according the conditions of placental vascular anastomosis:significant placental vascular anastomosis group(group A) and no significant vascula anastomosis group(group B).Birth weight,head circumference,length,the morbidity of disease were all investigated in 2 groups.Clinic follow-up included neonatal behavioral neurological assessment(NBNA) and children′s development center of China(CDCC).The correlation of neonates placental vascular anastomosis between twin neonates were compared.Results There were statistically significant differences between group A and group B in birth weight,head circumference and body length(t=6.070,5.237,5.784,Pa

Objective To investigate the influence of preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) on neurological development of preterm infants.Methods The preterm infants were classified into 2 groups( PPROM group and control group).The neonatal behavioral neurological assessment (NBNA) and CDCC of infants in two groups were measured and compared after retrieved:gestational age 40 weeks,3 months and 6 months.Results Psycho-moter developmental index(PDI) of PPROM group after retrieved gestational age 3,6 months was significantly lower than that of control group(Pa

Objective To explore the clinical manifestations of ultrasonography(US),99mTc-methoxyisobutylisonitrile(99mTc-MIBI),and 131I whole body scan(131I-WBS)of patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma(DTC)and cervical lymph node metastasis.Methods A total of 117 cases received examinations of US and 99mTc-MIBI before uses of 131I and received 131I-WBS after 6 d of 131I treatment.Combined with serum thyroglobulin(Tg),131I-SPECT/CT,lymph node biopsy and clinical follow-up of patients,cervical lymph node metastases were identified.Results In 117 patients,the sensitivity of US,99mTc-MIBI and 131I-WBS were 76.5%,67.1% and 83.5%(P

Objective To study the different expressions of receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligang(RANKL) mRNA in spleens of rats fed with diet of low calcium and high fluoride. Methods A 2× 2×2 factorial design was used and the factors were calcium, fluoride and action time. In the design, 40 Wistar rats [average body mass(118.9±13.5)g] were divided into four groups randomly by weight: control with normal diet (0.790%, calcium), low calcium group with low calcium intake(0.063%, calcium), high fluoride group with normal diet and high fluoride intake(100 mg/L, fluoride) and low calcium and high fluoride group with low calcium and high fluoride intake. After 4 and 8 months, 5 rats of each group were sacrificed and total RNA was extracted from spleen. And the expression levels of RANKL mRNA were determined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results At time of 4 months, the expression level of RANKL mRNA was 0.13± 0.05,0.13± 0.03,0.17±0.02,0.27± 0.05 and at time of 8 months, it was 0.11 ± 0.01,0.16 ± 0.02,0.16± 0.03,0.36 ± 0.07 in control group, low calcium group, high fluoride group, low calcium with high fluoride group, repectively. The factorial design AVONA showed that low calcium and high fluoride had significant effects on RANKL mRNA expression(F = 40.224,56.679, all P < 0.05) while action time had not(F = 2.850, P > 0.05 ). The interactions of low calcium with high fluoride or high fluoride with action time were signifieant(F = 7.247, 18.789, all P < 0.05) while the interaction of high fluoride with action time was not(F = 1.751, P > 0.05). Conclusions Low calcium alone or high fluoride alone or low calcium with high fluoride or low calcium with action time can increase the the RANKL mRNA expression level. High fluoride does not affect the RANKL mRNA level as the action time is prolonged.
