Objective To investigate the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on aphasia recovery after stroke. Meth-ods From April, 2012 to January, 2013, 20 aphasic patients after stroke were enrolled in an A-B experiment design. During phase A, ten times of sham tDCS and language training (five days a week) were implemented, then ten times language training combined with tDCS (five days a week) were implemented in phase B. The treatment lasted for four weeks. Picture naming was measured for all patients before and af-ter treatment both in phase A and phase B. Results The D-value scores of picture naming before and after treatment were significantly more in phase B than in phase A in both treatment items and non-treatment items (t>3.030, P<0.05). Conclusion tDCS could raise the accuracy of picture naming in patients with aphasia after stroke.

Objective To investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided paravertebral nerve block on stress reaction in patients undergoing esophageal resection. Methods Eighty patients scheduled to do the operation of esophageal resection were randomly divided into two groups with 40 cases in each group. The patients in group A were given the general anesthesia combined with ultrasound-guided paravertebral block, and the patients in group B were given the general anesthesia only. Both of two groups received postoperative patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA). The amount of propofol and remifen-tanil used were recorded. The data of blood pressure, heart rate (HR) and pulseoxygen saturation (SpO2) before anesthesia (T1), before induction (T2), after intubation (T3), in 2 h of surgery (T4), after surgery (T5), 1 h after surgery (T6), 8 h after surgery (T7), 24 h after surgery (T8), 48 h after surgery (T9)were recorded. The analgesic effect was measured by VAS scores and Ramsay sedation scores were also recorded at T6-T10. The levels of blood glucose, epinephrine (E), norcpincphrinc (NE) and dopamine (DA) were also detected at T1, T4, T5, T9. Results The amount of propofol and remifentanil used in group A were lower than those in group B: (960.0 ± 216.9) mg vs. (1 242.5 ± 200.2) mg, (1.5 ± 0.4) mg vs. (2.3 ± 0.4) mg, P<0.05. The patients in two groups successfully completed surgery, and intraoperative vital signs was stable. The quiet and active VAS scores at T6-T9 in group A were significantly lower than those in group B (P<0.05). The Ramsay sedation scores at each time point in two groups had no significant differences (P>0.05). The levels of blood glucose and NE at T9 were significantly higher than those at T1, T4 or T5 of same group, P<0.05.The level of E at T4 and T5 was significantly lower than that at T1 and T9 of same group, P<0.05. The level of DA at T9 was significantly higher than that at T1, T4 and T5 in group B (P<0.05). The levels of blood glucose, NE, E and DA at T9 in group B were significantly higher than those in group A (P<0.05). Conclusions General anesthesia combined with ultrasound-guided paravertebral nerve block could offer favorable anaesthesia effect. It could decrease stress reaction and anesthetics requirements in patients undergoing esophageal resection.

Objective Summarize the experiences of treating after-operation ventricular electrical storm (VES) with extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) .Methods Examine the clinical data of seven cases of treating after-operation VES with ECMO from January 2013 to April 2014 and analyze the basic pre-operation conditions of the patients ,diagnoses ,causes of VES ,ai-ding processes with ECMO ,and prognoses .Results Seven patients all were successfully separated from the machine after the treat -ment ,one patient infected seriously after being separated from the machine ,having multiple organ failure one week later and dis-charged voluntarily ;one patient having cerebral hemorrhage two days later after being separated from the machine and discharged voluntarily ;the remaining five patients cured and discharged with no complications .Conclusion ECMO can provide effective circu-lar support to patients suffering VES after heart operation ,maintaining coronary blood supply ,avoiding further myocardial damage , stabilizing electrolytes and the internal environment ,and gain time for restoration of heart rhythm and treatment according to the causes and triggers .

ObjectiveTo investigate the individual factors of postural adjustment reaction time and movement time during adaptive equilibrium. MethodsFrom March to December, 2021, 126 healthy adults aged 18 to 80 years were recruited at the First Medical Center of the General Hospital of the Chinese PLA. The DE-A somatosensory balance detection system was used to detect their postural adjustment reaction time (RT) and movement time (MT) as the platform tilting in multiple directions during standing (static) or walking (dynamic). The ages, genders, body mass index (BMI) and physical activity level of them were investigated. ResultsThe age was the only factor independently associated with dynamic RT and MT in all the directions (β > 0.632, P < 0.05). For static MT, as the platform tilting forward, physical activity level (β = -0.143, P < 0.05), BMI (β = 0.154, P < 0.05) and age (β = 0.663, P < 0.05) were the independently associated factors; as the platform tilting leftward, gender (β = -0.173, P < 0.05) and age (β = 0.647, P < 0.05) were the independently associated factors; and age was the only independently associated factor for other directions (β > 0.571, P < 0.05). For the static RT, age was the only independently associated factor for all the directions (β > 0.615, P < 0.05). ConclusionAge is the most important independently factor related to postural adjustment during adaptive equilibrium, and aging may delay the postural adjustment after instability.

With the rapid development of clinical trials, the relevant medical research and molecular detection based on biological samples are closely related to the progress of clinical trials, making the role of biological samples in clinical trials increasingly obvious. The standardized supervision mode of biological samples is an important prerequisite for carrying out high-quality clinical trials. Although the laws and regulations related to clinical trials are becoming more and more perfect, there are still a large number of adverse events related to biological samples, which seriously affects the progress and results of clinical trials, and is one of the important challenges currently facing. Therefore, it is urgent to enhance the supervision of biological samples and improve the management methods of biological samples in clinical trials at this stage. Through in-depth discussion of the current status of biological sample management in clinical trials at home and abroad, this paper analyzed the issues existed during the supervision of biological samples, and supplemented the biological sample management methods by further combing the existing relevant laws and regulations and the Guidelines for the Ethical Management of Biological Samples in Clinical Trials, with a view to providing suggestions and ideas for optimizing the management mode of biological samples in clinical trials.
