Chinese Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2011;33(10):731-735
Objective To study the effects of rehabilitation training on the regeneration of nerve cells in rats after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).Methods A total of 75 male SD rats were randomized into a training group,a control group and a sham operated group,25 rats/group.The ICH models were induced by stereotactical injection of collagenase type Ⅶ into the globus pallidus.The training group was trained with grasp,balancing and rotating exercise every day,the control group was restricted to their cages,and the sham operated group received normal saline injections.Each group was further subdivided into 1,4,7,14 and 28 day subgroups.Neurological function was measured in each group.Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) was used to label S phase cells,immunohistochemical single and double staining with antibodies against BrdU,microtubal-associated protein (MAP) and neuronal nuclei (NeuN) were used to determine neuronal proliferation,migration and differentiation in the subventricular zone ( SVZ ) and subgranular zone (SGZ) in the training and control groups.Results The motor function scores of the animals in the rehabilitation group were significantly lower than those of the control group.Proliferative BrdU + cells of the SVZ and SGZ in the control group rats were clearly less than those in the rehabilitation training rats at all time points.The results of the immunohistochemical double staining indicated that one week after ICH BrdU +/MAP + cells in the SVZ had increased significantly in the training group compared to the control group,and then decreased two weeks later.At the same time,BrdU +/MAP cells were found in the striatal boundary on the hemorrhage side,in numbers up to 8 times that in the control group.In the rehabilitation group striatal neuron differentiation on the hemorrhage side was 2 to 3 times that in the control group.Conclusion Rehabilitative training can enhance nerve cell proliferation,regeneration and neuron migration after ICH.

Objective To systematically review the efficacy and tolerance of levofloxacin-based rescue regimens for H.pylori eradication failures.Methods A search of Medline,Embase,Cinahl, CBM-disc was performed.Randomized controlled trials comparing levofloxacin-based triple therapy with bismuth-based quadruple therapy were selected for meta-analysis.Assessment of study quality and ex- tracting data to calculate eradication rate and side effect rate.Results Seven randomized controlled stud- ies met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were recruited.Ten-day levofloxacin-based triple therapy was more effective(86.9% vs 61.8% P

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and principle of direct reduction and fixation through the pedicle of fractured vertebra in treatment of thoracolumbar burst fractures.Methods Between June 2001 and November 2005,24 cases of one level thoracolumbar burst fracture,16 males and eight females,were treated in our department.Their average age was 32.5 years old.The fractured vertebrae were as follows:T11 in two cases,T12 in nine cases,L1 in 11 cases and L2 in two cases.According to the ASIA(American Spinal Injury Association) neurological function grading system,there were one grade A,two grade B,five grade C,three grade D anti 13 grade E.The vertebral canal area blocked was rated as gradeⅠ(<1/4)in three cases,gradeⅡ(1/4~1/2)in nine cases,gradeⅢ(1/2~3/4)in 10 cases and gradeⅣ(>3/4)in two cases.The pedicle-screws were im- planted into the pedicles of the fractured vertebra and its adjacent ones.The connective rod was pre-bent according to the normal sagittal curvature of the fixation segment.After necessary decompression of the vertebral canal,the pedicle-screws stabilized the rod which was rotated to prop open upper and lower pedicle screws and push the burst vertebra so that the kyphosis and lateral dislocation were corrected.The graft bone was implanted between the transverse processes.Results On average,the height of fractured vertebra was restored from 48.3% of the normal value before operation to 93.6% after operation,the lateral dislocation from 17.1% to 0.6%,the Cobb's angle on the sagittal plane from 26.5?to 3.1?,and the Cobb's angle on the frontal plane from 9.5?to 0?.The area of vertebral canal was enlarged from 44.6% of the normal value to 92.1%.There were no complications.For in- complete neurological injuries,improvement of one to two grades was made in neurological functions.Conclusion Direct reduction and fixation through pedicles of fractured vertebrae is a safe and effective therapeutic option to treat the thoracolumbar burst fracture,for it can improve the stabilization and stress distribution.

0.05).Our data also showed no significant association between the genotypes and the severity of the disease.One-way ANOVA showed that BDNF genotype had no association to the age of onset for developing AD.Conclusions Our results indicate that Va166Met SNP in BDNF gene is not associated with AD.

Objective To analyze the incidence of BK virus (BKV) infection after kidney transplantation in our center and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of conversion treatment with Mizoribine (MZR) on BKV infection after kidney transplantation.Methods The information of recipients who received BK virus screening in hospital or outpatient during 2015-02 to 2016-12 in our center was retrospectively analyzed.The recipients positive for BKV were divided into experiment group (given conversion treatment with MZR) and control group (not given MZR conversion) according to the inclusion criteria.The negative rate of BKV,AR,hyperuricemia and the function of renal allograft during the conversion treatment with MZR were observed.Results 182 recipients accepted BKV screening during 2015-02 to 2016-12 and 68 cases were positive.The positive rate of BKV was 38.5 %.The positive rate of peripheral blood specimens and midstream urine specimens was 7.1% and 36.8% respectively.Twelve recipients were positive for BKV in both peripheral blood specimens and midstream urine specimens.There were 27 recipients in experiment group and 36 cases in control group.Fourteen recipients positive for BKV became negative after MZR conversion in experiment group and the negative rate was up to 51.9%.The mean time of negative rate was 3.2 ± 2.7 (1-10) months after MZR conversion.During the conversion treatment with MZR,AR occurred in 1 case and was reversed by the impact therapy with Thymoglobulin in experiment group.The value of serum uric acid was maintained stable before and after MZR conversion under the action of uric-acidlowering drug.The renal function was kept stable in both experiment group and control group after renal transplantation.No deaths and renal allograft failure cases occurred in both groups during the research period.The 2-year survival rate for patients and kidneys was both 100%.Conclusion The incidence of BKV infection after kidney transplantation was high and the treatment scheme of MZR conversion was safe and effective.
