Cobb syndrome, or cutaneomeningospinal angiomatosis, is a clinically rare manifestation of angiomatosis or arteriovenous malformations of the skin, spine, spinal cord, and viscera in the same spinal segment. A 48 years old female patient with Cobb syndrome treated ecently is reported as follow. The patient was admitted to hospital due to lower limbs weakness for three days. Left lumbar and abdominal pain occurred before onset without obvious causes, and then lower limbs weakness occurred. In this case, clinical manifestations were acute onset and development rapidly. Imaging showsed myeleterosis from C 1 to T 11, consistent with vertebral segments of hemangiomas in the left parotid gland, the left axillary, the left subclavian, the right femoribus internus, and the right lobe of the liver, etc. Her symptoms and imaging manifestations all meet the diagnostic criteria of Cobb syndrome. Cobb syndrome is easy to be missed diagnosis and misdiagnozed clinically with poor prognosis. This paper discussed and analyzed the rare case in combination with relevant literature, in order to improve clinicians′ understanding of Cobb syndrome, so as to achieve early diagnosis and treatment, thus to reduce permanent neurological complications.

Objective　To investigate the abnormal distribution of lymphocytes in eutopic and ectopic endometrium of patients with endometriosis and its significance. Methods　In 43 cases, biopsies of ectopic tissues were taken by laparoscopy and laparotomy from patients with endometriosis and eutopic endometrium by curettage at the same time. In 19 cases, eutopic endometrium was taken from hysterectomy for myomatous uterus. Immunohistochemical techniques were employed to demonstrate the difference in the number and ratio of the lymphocyte subsets between the patients with endometriosis and the controls. Results　In the patients with endometriosis, in the proliferative phase, ectopic endometrium contained respectively CD+3、CD+8T cells and CD+68 macrophages (67.2±13.5)/5HP, (45.0±14.0)/5 HP and (37.2±10.6)/5 HP, significanly higher then that in the eutopic endometriun (52.4±11.3)/5HP (P<0.01), (32.5±10.0)/5HP (P<0.05)， and (30.7±10.3)/5HP， and also higher as compared with the control group (52.1±14.9)/5HP (P<0.05)， (28.9±12.7)/5HP (P<0.01), (26.3±9.3)/5HP (P<0.05); in the secretory phade, CD+8/CD+4, and CD+68 content was respectively 3.5±1.2，(40.3±12.2)/5HP, higher than that in the control group, 3.2±0.8 (P<0.05), (28.6±10.6)/5HP (P<0.01). The number of macrophages was also significantly increased. No cyclic changes in the number of lymphocytes in each subpopulation in ectopic endometrium were found. Conclusions　In the patients with endometriosis, the changes in T lymphocytes and macrophages are mainly on the endometriotic sites. The infiltration of many lymphocytes and macrophages into the ectopic endometrium formed a chronic inflammatory process. The lymphocytes are not able to clear the ectopic endometrium in the late stages of endometrium，on the contrary, they stimulate the further growth of the endometrium.

Objective:To explore the relationship between coronary heart disease (CHD)and silent brain infarction (SBI).Methods:A total of 430 patients who had received coronary angiography were enrolled,including 330 CHD patients and 100 non-CHD patients.According to complicated with SBI or not scanned by cranial MRI,CHD pa-tients were divided into CHD+SBI group (n=208)and CHD without SBI group (pure CHD group,n=122).Levels of high sensitive C reactive protein (hsCRP)and homocysteine (Hcy)were measured,and coronary artery score (CAS)and Gensini score (GS)were calculated in all patients.Results:Incidence rate of complicated SBI in CHD patients was significantly higher than that of non-CHD patients (63% vs.31%,P <0.01);compared with pure CHD group,there were significant rise in age [(60.79±9.65)years vs.(67.14±9.77)years],percentages of hy-pertension (41.0% vs.66.8%),hyperlipidemia (37.7% vs.55.8%)and levels of hsCRP [(3.92±2.17)g/L vs. (5.85±6.27)g/L],Hcy [(9.20±3.20)μmol/L vs.(10.54±4.25)μmol/L],CAS [(0.88±0.88)scores vs. (1.94±0.94)scores]and GS [(18.62±16.23)scores vs.(53.04±39.61)scores],and percentage of left anterior descending artery stenosis (25.4% vs.69.2%)in CHD+SBI group,P <0.01;Logistic regression analysis indicated that risk factors of SBI were age (OR=1.07,95%CI:1.032~1.108),hypertension history (OR=2.195,95%CI:1.104~4.366),Hcy (OR=1.088,95%CI:1.001~1.182),CAS (OR=1.776,95%CI:1.049~3.007)and GS (OR =1.039,95%CI:1.013~ 1.066),P <0.05 or <0.01. Conclusion:Incidence rate of SBI in CHD pa-tients is significantly higher than that of non-CHD patients;the more severe coronary artery disease is,the higher percentage of complicated SBI is.CAS and Gensini score abnormities suggest there may be SBI existence simultaneously.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of abdominal acupuncture in treating patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF).
Methods:Forty-five eligible OVCF patients were randomized into an abdominal acupuncture (AA) group, a body acupuncture (BA) group and a medication group according to the random numbers generated by the SPSS 11.5 version software, 15 subjects in each group. Patients in the medication group were intervened by Ossotide injection (intravenous injection), Caltrate (oral administration), Alfacalcidol (oral administration), and Salcatonin injection (muscular injection). In addition to the intervention given to the medication group, patients in the AA group additionally received acupuncture at Zhongwan (CV 12), Xiawan (CV 10), Qihai (CV 6), Guanyuan (CV 4), Shuifen (CV 9), and Huaroumen (ST 24); while patients in the BA group additionally received acupuncture at Jiaji (EX-B 2, superior and inferior to the affected area) points, Ashi points, Weizhong (BL 40) and Chengshan (BL 57). For the AA and BA groups, the acupuncture treatment was given once a day, 6 d per week, for 3 weeks in total. Prior to the intervention, and respectively after 1-week treatment, 2-week treatment and 3-week treatment, visual analogue scale (VAS) and Barthel index (BI) were adopted to evaluate pain degree and activities of daily living (ADL).
Results:After intervention, the VAS and BI scores were significantly changed in the three groups (P<0.05). Respectively after 1-week, 2-week and 3-week treatment, the VAS and BI scores in the two acupuncture groups were significantly different from those in the medication group at the same time point (P<0.01). After 1-week and 2-week treatment, the improvements of VAS and BI scores in the AA group were more significant than those in the BA group(P<0.05); after 3-week treatment, there was no significant difference in comparing the VAS score between the two acupuncture groups (P>0.05), but a significant difference was found in comparing the BI score (P<0.05).
Conclusion:Abdominal acupuncture can produce a more significant effect in improving VAS and BI scores in OVCF patients than body acupuncture and pure medication treatment, and it’s efficient and causes few sufferings.
