Objective To study the expression of microtubule-associated protein-2 (MAP-2) in the CA3 region of the hippocampus and any effect of acupuncture combined with exercise training on the recovery of learning and memory after experimental cerebral infarction.Methods Eighty Wistar rats were randomly divided into a sham-operation group (n = 8 ) and an operation group (n = 72 ) subdivided randomly and equally into a model group, an exercisetraining group and an acupuncture plus exercise training group, with 24 rats in each group. After right middle cerebral artery occlusion or a mock operation, the expression of MAP-2 in the CA3 region of the hippocampus was detected with immunohistochemistry 1, 3 and 5 weeks after the operation. Learning and memory function was assessed at the 5th week post operation.Results MAP-2- positive fibers were arranged in an orderly way and distributed densely in the shamoperation group. After cerebral infarction, number of MAP-2 positive neurons and dendrite fibers decreased in the CA3 region of the affected side. A week after the operation, MAP-2 positive fibers had increased significantly in the acupuncture plus exercise group compared with the model group and the exercise group. At the 3rd and 5th week post operation, expression of MAP-2 and optical density had increased significantly compared with the model group and the exercise training group. At the 5th week post operation, Y maze discrimination and learning tests showed that learning and memory had improved significantly more in the acupuncture plus exercise training group compared with the model group and the exercise training group.Conclusions Exercise training combined with acupuncture can promote changes in dendritic plasticity and increase MAP-2 expression in the CA3 region after cerebral infarction. This may be correlated positively with the recovery of learning and memory after cerebral infarction, at least in rats.

BACKGROUND: Although the sternohyoid muscular valves are traditionally used as reparative material for functional reconstruction after partial laryngectomy, the late-term results are not so satisfactory.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy of using external layer mucoperiosteum valve of thyroid cartilage to repair the wound surface and reconstruct vocal function.DESIGN: A self-controlled observational trial using the patients as subjects.SETTING: Department of otolaryngology of a municipal hospital.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 57 patients with laryngocarcinoma were selected from the Department of Otolaryngology, Shantou Second People' s Hospital, from June 1998 to May 2004. Among them, there were 56 men and 1 woman who were aged 37 to 78 years with the average age of 60. 38 years and whose disease duration was two months to one year with the average of five months.METHODS: In the 57 patients with laryngocarcinoma, their external layer mucoperiosteum valves of thyroid cartilages in the affected side were preserved and inverted into laryngeal cavities, which were used to cover the wound surface and rebuild the vocal fold.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The final outcome indices: changes in the symtoms and function and Karnofsky scores before and after treatment. Risk indices: adverse events and side effects.RESULTS: The operations on the 57 patients were successful. The incidence of respiratory tract obstruction and hoarseness in the patients before operation was 38.9% and 98. 1%, but 1.9% and 96. 3% after treatment. Karnofsky score was 40 and 70 before and after treatment, respectively. No complications of pharyngeal stricture occurred in the near and long term.CONCLUSION: Vertical partial laryngectomy and laryngeal reconstruction with mucoperiosteum valve are easy to operate. The recovery of the wound surface is good, phonation efficacy is satisfacory, and respiratory function is not affected. The treatment has low incidence of complications and satisfactory long-term results.

Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2019;35(12):955-960
Active management of the third stage of labour involves giving a prophylactic uterotonic, early cord clamping, controlled cord traction and uterine massage. Active management of the third stage, as the main package of procedure to prevent postpartum hemorrhage, can effectively shorten the third stage of labor and reduce the incidence of severe postpartum hemorrhage, this is a major cause of women dying in developing countries. In developed countries, severe bleeding occurs much less often, yet active management has become standard practice in many countries for several decades. The most common complications of active management of the third stage of labor are pain and side effects of oxytocin, in addition to serious complications such as inversion of uterus and retained placental. Therefore, in recent years, a variety of interventions have been adopted in the third stage of labour, especially for low-risk pregnant women, which have been questioned and the evidence for using active management for all women is insufficient. The purpose of this article is to compare the effectiveness and variations of different management of the third stage of labour, and provide the basis for reasonable and individualized management of the third stage of labour, ultimately promote the natural labour.

Objective:Establishment of a new model of human primary colon cancer transplantation tumor in normal immune mice and to provide a reliable experimental animal model for studying the pathogenesis of colon cancer under normal immunity.Methods:Human colon cancer cells come from colon cancer patients who underwent surgery in the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College in 2017. The mice in the cell control group were inoculated with phosphate buffered solution (PBS) containing colon cancer cells, the microcarrier control group was inoculated with PBS containing microcarrier 6, and the cell-microcarrier complex group was inoculated with the PBS containing colon cancer cell-microcarrier complex. The cells of each group were inoculated under the skin of the right axilla of mice by subcutaneous injection, and the time, size, tumor formation rate and pathological changes under microscope were recorded. The transplanted tumor tissue was immunohistochemically stained with the EnVisiion two-step method, and the tumor formation rate of the transplanted tumor was judged according to the proportion of positive cells in the visual field. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method was used to detect the expression of human-specific Alu sequence in mice tumor tissue.Results:After inoculation with tumor cells, the mice in the cell control group and the microcarrier control group did not die and did not form tumors; the mice in the cell-microcarrier complex group had palpable subcutaneous tumors in the right axillary subcutaneously on the 5th to 7th days after inoculation, and tumor formation rate is 67% (10/15), and the tumor volume can reach about 500 mm 3 2 to 3 weeks after vaccination. The immunohistochemistry results showed that CK20, CDX-2 and carcinoembryonic antigen were all positively expressed. The PCR results showed that the expression of human-specific Alu sequence can be detected in the transplanted tumor tissue of tumor-bearing mice. Conclusion:Human primary colon cancer cells used microcarrier 6 as a carrier to form tumors in normal immunized mice, and successfully established a new model of human colon cancer transplantation tumor in normal immune mice.
