Objective To detect the long term effect of pure and multiple concussions on spatial cognitive of rats.Methods One hundred and eighty 7-week-old Spragne-Dawley male rats with weight of 280 ± 30g were chosen and randomly divided into a control group and a concussion group.The cerebral concussion was induced in the rats using a metallic pendulum striker concussive device.After the first strike,the brain injury group was randomly divided into a pure cerebral concussion(PCC)group and a multiple cerebral concussion(MCC) group.After the second strike,the MCC group was randomly divided into two-fold cerebral concussion(2MCC) group and three-fold cerebral concussion(3MCC) group.The striking interval was 24h.One,3 and 6 months after trauma,their cognitive function was tested using Morris water maze.Results One month later after injury,there was no significant difference in the escape latency between the control group and PCC group.Significant differences in the measurement were observed between the control/PCC group and 2MCC group on the 7th day after the injury,also between the control/PCC and 3MCC groups on the 6th and 7th day.And there were significant differences between the 2MCC and 3MCC groups on the 6th and 7th days.The non-platform test did not observe any significant differences among the four groups.Three months after injury,there was still no significant difference between the control group and PCC group,PCC and 2MCC groups,as well as 2MCC and 3MCC groups in the escape latency.However,there was significant difference between the control group and 2MCC group on the 5th,6th and 7th days,between the control group and 3MCC group on the 4th,5th,6th and 7th days,as well as between PCC group and 3MCC group on the 6th and 7th days.In the non-platform test,there was no significant difference between the control group and PCC group,between PCC group and 2MCC group,as well as between 2MCC group and 3MCC group.However,2MCC and 3MCC groups spent significantly less time in the former platform quadrant,when compared with the control group and 3MCC group spent significantly less time than PCC group.Six months after injury,significant differences in the escape latency were observed between the control group and PCC group on the 6th and 7th days,and 2MCC group on the 5th,6th and 7th days,also and 3MCC groups on the 2nd,3rd,4th,5th,6th and 7th days,still between PCC group and 2MCC group on the 6th and 7th days,as well as between PCC group and 3MCC group on the 4th,5th,6th and 7th days.Moreover,there was significant difference between 2MCC and 3MCC groups only on the 7th day.In the non-platform test,PCC group,2MCC group and 3MCC group spent significantly less time in the former platform quadrant compared with the control group.Moreover,in this test significant differences were found between PCC group and 2MCC/3MCC group,but not between 2MCC group and 3MCC group.Conclusion With the increase of cerebral concussion times,earlier and more serious damage of spatial cognition will appear,with a significant cumulative effect in rats.Such rat model can be used to study the pathological changes of cognitive impairment in chronic traumatic encephalopathy.

ObjectiveTo observe the prepulse inhibition(PPI) ot the startle reflex of pure cerebral concussion (PCC) suffered from one concussion and multiple cerebral concussion (MCC) suffered from three concussions in rats,and to explore accumulate effect upon cognitive dysfunction of MCC.MethodsA metallic pendulum striker device for closed head injury was employed to duplicate PCC and MCC models in Stragu-Dawley rats.The MCC rats were hit three times on rats'head and it is interval 24 hours for every hit.According to the criteria of cerebral concussion,the investigated animals were divided into PCC group and MCC group at freedom.One control group was used.Each group included 10 animals.Each experience mental animal was tested from 3 days pre-injury to 28 days post-concussion.Startle reflex amplitude (for P values),pre-stimulation induced reflex amplitude on three standard stimulations,that was,67dB,69dB and 73dB (for PP67,PP69 and PP73 values) and prepulse inhibition of the startle reflex (PPI) were collected.ResultsThe P values and three PP values in the first three days of pre-replication experiment,there was no statistical significance in each group.However the P values and PP67,PP69 and PP73 values declined until to the 16th day after injury (P＜0.05),then recovered in PCC group.The P value and PP67,PP69 and PP73 values changes of MCC group declined and not recovered until to test end (P＜0.05 ) and they were more lower than PCC.The three PPI values were a little bit increase in both groups,there were statistics significance at some test points (P＜0.05) compared with control.ConclusionThe startle reflex amplitude and pre-stimulation induced reflex amplitude weaken after cerebral concussion and there is damaging accumulate effect to injury times,the PPI is enlanced by cerebral concussion.

Objective To observe learning and memory behavior changes of one time cerebral concussion called pure cerebral concussion(PCC)and three times cerebral concussion called multiple cerebral concussion (MCC)after injured 24 days in rats.Methods A metallic pendulum striker device was deployed to duplicate PCC and MCC model in SD rata which were the complete closed head injury model.The animals were divided into PCC and MCC groups at random.One control group was used,each group has eight animals(n=8).One 8-arms radial maze was used to assessed each animal's capabilities,that is,spatial reference memory,working memory,spirited activity and take in food.Results Compared with control group,there were some significance(P＜0.05)in both experiment groups post injury,that was,(1)The food intake decreased,PCC group from the 1st to the 11th day(from 0.00±0.00 to 2.62±1.76)after injury,MCC group from the 1st day to the 24th day(from 0.00±0.00 to 0.75±1.48)after injury.(2)Spirited activity depressed,PCC group on the 1st to the 7th,13rd day(from 4.87±1.24 to 10.0±2.39)after injury,MCC group on the 1st to 8th,22nd day(from 4.25±5.03 to 9.37±4.20)after injury.(3)The spatial reference memory was lower in early then gradually increased,PCC group on the 1 st to 7th day(from 0.50±0.75 to 3.O0±1.06)after injury,MCC group from the 1st to 19th day(from 1.88±2.10 to 2.50±2.44)after injury.(4)The working memory was delaying damaged,PCC group from the 1st to the 6th day and the 10th to the 23rd day(from 0.00±0.00 to 4.25±3.05)after injury,MCC group on the 1～4th,6th,9～13th,15th,16th,19th～22nd day(from 0.25±0.46 to 3.12±2.87)after injury.Conclusion The injured rata'capability of spatial reference memory,working memory,spirited activity and food intake were obviously damaged after CC,and the MCC group's capability of spatial reference memory,spirited activity and food intake was worse than PCC group.

Effect of microendoscopic disectomy (MED) is compared with that of traditional open operation in treating lumbar disc herniation. MED has advantages of less trauma, shorter operating time, quick postoperative recovery, and little suffering, but with more complications. Strictly controlled indication and dedicate operative skill are need to improve the treating effect.

Purpose: In order to explore the clinical mechanism of Neiguan (PC 6) in the treatment of acute seizure of migraine and the relationship between Neiguan (PC 6) and cerebral blood flow. Methods: Clinically, 30 cases of the patients with acute seizure of migraine (ascending phase) were selected, in TCD abnormality, and divided randomly into the treatment group and control group, 15 cases in each group. In acute seizure of migraine, Neiguan (PC 6)was punctured with electric stimulation on the healthy side of the patients in the treatment group and Xuehai (SP 10) was punctured with electric stimulation on the healthy side of the patients in the control group. TCD was determined in the patients 30 min before and after the treatment. Results and conclusion: After transdermal electric stimulation on Neiguan (PC 6),the velocity of intracranial blood flow was obviously slowed down, indicating that transdermal electric stimulation on Neiguan (PC 6) can effectively relieve the spasm of intracranial blood vessels and also shows its relative specificity.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cefepime in the treatment of serious community acquired lower respiratory infection. Methods Eighty-six patients of serious community acquired lower respiratory infection were randomized into the experimental group (n=44) receiving cefepime (2 g, intravenous infusion, twice a day) for 7-14 d and the control group (n=42) receiving cefotaxime (3 g, intravenous infusion, three times a day) for 7-14 d. Results There were no statistical differences of age, severity of the disease, original diseases, or distribution of pathogens between the two groups. In the experimental group, cefepime had a good therapeutic efficacy against not only the gram-negative bacteria infection and the gram-positive bacteria infection, but also other cephalosporin-resistant bacteria infection. Its cure rate was 86.4%, and effective rate 93.2%. In the control group, cefotaxime had a less therapeutic efficacy against the infection caused by some resistant strains of the gram-negative bacteria and the gram-positive bacteria. Its cure rate was 64.3%, and effective rate 76.2%. Conclusion The antibacterial activity of cefepime is stronger than that of cefotaxime. So cefepime is an effective and safe antibiotic, and suggested to use in the empirical treatment for serious community acquired lower respiratory infection.
