Because there are the fiber connections between striatum and substantia nigra, the striatal infarction may result in the secondary degeneration of the substantia nigra. In recent years, there have been a series of characteristics on secondary lesions of the substantia nigra, pathophysiological mechanisms, and the studies of how to detect the patients with striatal infarction in vivo. This article reviews the advances in this field.

A focal cerebral infarction results in anterograde and retrograde secondary degenera-tion in remote site. The secondary degeneration in remote site may progress gradually in a certain time and cause harmful effects on the neural function recovery of patients.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and toxicity of bortezomib in combination with dexamethasone for the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma(MM).Methods Fourteen patients(11 males,3 females,mean age 65.1 yrs)with MM,who were hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical College from June 2005 to July 2007,were treated with bortezomib(1.3 mg/m2)by intravenous bolus twice a week for 2 weeks in a 21-day cycle,followed by an intravenous injection of dexamethasone 20～40 mg.The patients received one to eight courses.Response to bortezomib was evaluated according to the criteria of the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation(EBMT)before initiation of each bortezomib chemotherapy course.Adverse effects were graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria,version 3.0.Results The median follow-up duration from the begining of bortezomib treatment was 3.5 months.Clinical reponse was observed in 12 patients(86%),including complete response in 2,nearly complete response in 6,partial response in 3,minimal response in 1 and progressive disease in 2.The most common adverse effects were fatigue(10 patients),peripheral neuropathy(7 patients),gastrocnemius myalgia(2 patients),gastrointestinal symptoms(4 patients),thrombocytopenia(5 patients),disseminated herpes zoster(1 patient)and refractory hyponatremia(1 patient).The adverse effects were subsided on routine supportive care.Conclusion Bortezomib in combination with dexamethasone is an effective therapy with a high response rate for MM patients.All the adverse effects are more than common but are manageable with symptomatic therapy and(or)dose modification.

AIM: To investigate the changes of bladder volume , pressures and pelvic nerve firing induce by different speeds and ways of instillation .METHODS:Female SD rats (n=20) were randomly divided into 2 groups.The rats in group A was performed using 3-F polyethylene tubing inserted into the bladder through the urethra .The rats in group B were performed using 3-F tubing inserted into the dome of the bladder and secured by silk suture .The rats in both groups were infused with saline into the bladder at different speeds of 50, 100, 200 and 400μL/min.The changes of bladder vol-ume and pressure were recorded by urodynamic measuring devices .The changes of pelvic nerve firing during instillation were recorded by multi-channel physiologic recorder .RESULTS:In group A, the maximum firing frequency , bladder leak point pressure ( BLPP) and maximum voiding pressure ( MVP) were increased with the increase in the instillation speed . No significant difference of the maximum bladder capacity (MBC) at different speeds was observed .In group B, the maxi-mum firing frequency had no significant difference at different speeds .MBC was decreased with the increase in the instilla-tion speed , and exhibited significant decrease at 200 and 400 μL/min.No significant difference of BLPP and MVP at dif-ferent speeds was observed .Compared with group A , the maximum firing frequency and MBC in group B significantly de-creased at different speeds .However , BLPP and MVP in group B were higher than those in group A at the speeds of 50 and 100 μL/min.CONCLUSION:Different instillation speeds with the method of group A will not change the bladder volume but influence the pelvic nerve firing , so the process of method A may take various speeds according to different aims .How-ever, process of method B at the speed of over 200 μL/min may not be good to MBC, thus instillation under 200 μL/min is re-commended .
