Objective To observe the effect of body-weight supported treadmill training (BWSTT) on the lower limb motor function of elderly hemiplegia patients with acute cerebral infarction using semi-quantitative analysis of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) through single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Methods Seven patients with cerebral infarction were given comprehensive rehabilitation therapy for 10 weeks in three stages: a baseline period of 2 weeks ( conventional rehabilitation therapy), an intervention period of 6 weeks ( conventional rehabilitation therapy plus BWSTT) and a withdrawal period of 2 weeks (conventional rehabilitation therapy). During the intervention period the exercise duration increased gradually from 15 to 30 minutes, once a day, 5 times a week,for 6 consecutive weeks. Dynamic changes in rCBF in the cortex were observed with SPECT before and after treat ment. Results During the baseline period there was no significant change in average MWS (maximum walking speed) or BBS ( Berg balance scale) scores. During the intervention period both scores improved significantly. During the withdrawal period there were some changes in MWS and BBS scores, but they were not significant. There was a significant change in average rCBF in the cortex after treatment compared with before. Conclusions BWSTT is effective for improving the walking speed and balance of elderly patients with acute cerebral infarction. There is a positive correlation between the recovery of lower limb motor function and changes in rCBF in the cortex.

Aim To observe the production of anti-idiotypic antibodies directed against AK auto Ab in the rabbit sera after long-term, high dose allogenic AK auto Ab injection. Methods Allogenic AK auto Ab (5mg/kg)was injected intramuscularly to rabbit once every other day for 90 days. Anti-idiotypic antibodies in rabbit sera were detected by ELISA. Results Rabbits injected with AK auto Ab generated anti-idiotypic antibodies that could react to F(ab′ )2 of AK auto Ab. The titers of anti-idiotypic antibodies reached the highest levels at 4 weeks after the administration of AK auto Ab and then gradually decreased. Conclusion Rabbits could be induced to form immune tolerance when high-does allogenic AK auto Ab is administrated for long-term.

Objective To compare effect of three therapies( modified constraint-induced movement therapy (mCIMT), constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) and Bobath therapies)on the recovery of motor function in upper-extremities of patients with apoplexy hemiparalysis. Methods Fifty-seven patients with apoplexy hemiparalysis were randomly divided into CIMT treatment group ( n = 19), mCIMT group (n = 19) and Bobath group (n = 19). Patients in Bobath group exercised 2 h/d, 5 d/week for 6 weeks. CIMT group and mCIMT group had restriction of movement at the unimpaired upper extremity by placing it in a sling a whole day for training using impaired extremity. Patients in CIMT treatment group exercised 6 h/d,5 days a week for 2 weeks in a row; mCIMT treatment group exercised for 1 h/d, 3 days a week, and also exercised in daily life at least 2 hours every day, for ten consecutive weeks. The patients in all three groups were assessed for upper-extremities motor function using FMA of Fugl-Meyer, for recovery of upperextremities motor speed using STEF and for recovery of daily ability at respective time-points of pre-treatment and the second week, sixth week and tenth week of post-treatment. Results In 3 assessments in the 3 groups there was no obvious change before treatment, while the FMA score was 45. 2 ± 5.1 (F = 1. 107 ,P =0. 382), BI score was 63. 1 ± 10. 3 ( F = 0. 930, P = 0. 401 ), STEF score was 63.4 ± 8.6 ( F = 1. 843, P =0. 168). At the second week, sixth week and tenth week of the treatment, the difference of assessment in the three groups was significant. The improvement in CIMT group was better after 2 weeks treatment compared with Bobath and mCIMT group, while the Bobath group showed better results than mCIMT group did after 6 weeks treatment. After 10 weeks treatment, the FMA, STEF in mCIMT and CIMT groups were improved better than Bobath group, while the BI score in mCIMT group was better than that in Bobath and CIMT group. Conclusions The mCIMT and CIMT therapy are better in improving the upper limb function in stroke patients compared with Bobath, while the mCIMT therapy is more effective in improving the abilities of daily life in stroke patients compared with the other two treatments.
