ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To explore the correlation between HPLC fingerprint and analgesic efficacy of Zhejiang vinegar Corydalis Rhizoma, and to screen out the material basis of analgesic effect of Zhejiang vinegar Corydalis Rhizoma.METHODS Established HPLC fingerprint of Zhejiang vinegar Corydalis Rhizoma and dysmenorrhea model in rats. The weight loss rate, writhing response, serum malondialdehyde(MDA), estradiol(E2), prostaglandin E2(PGE2) and prostaglandin F2α(PGF2α) levels were used as the evaluation indexes of analgesic efficacy. Combined with chemometrics, the main active components of analgesic effect of Zhejiang vinegar Corydalis Rhizoma and the important components with great contribution to the content were screened.RESULTS The fingerprints of different batches of Zhejiang vinegar Corydalis Rhizoma were established, and nine components were identified; compared with the blank group, the weight loss rate, writhing reaction, MDA, E2 and PGF2α levels in the model group were significantly increased. Compared with the model group, the above indexs in the administration group was decreased. Compared with the blank group, the PGE2 level in the model group was significantly decreased. Compared with the model group, the PGE2 level in the administration group was significantly increased. The vinegar Corydalis Rhizoma produced in Zhejiang had a good analgesic effect, and the main active components of its analgesic effect were protopine, palmatine hydrochloride, and dehydrocorydaline. The important components with greater contribution to the content were tetrahydropalmatine, protopine, palmatine hydrochloride and stylopine.CONCLUSION The efficacy of Zhejiang vinegar Corydalis Rhizoma is the result of the combined action of multiple components, and each component has a strong correlation with the pharmacodynamic indexes. This study provides a reference for the screening of analgesic material basis of Zhejiang vinegar Corydalis Rhizoma.

Objective To investigate the relationship between gait spatiotemporal parameters and balance function in stroke hemiplegic patients. Methods From September, 2018 to March, 2020, 76 stroke hemiplegic patients (38 in Brunnstrom Ⅳ and V, respectively) were assessed balance function with Active Balancer EAB-100 and Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT), and gait parameters of speed, cadence and asymmetry, named step length asymmetry ratio (SLA), swing time asymmetry ratio (SWTA), stance time asymmetry ratio (STA), maximum flexion angle ratio (MFA) of hip and knee. The correlation among gait parameters and balance function was analysed. Results The balance and gait parameters were better in those in Brunnstrom V than in Brunnstrom Ⅳ (|t| > 2.268, P < 0.05). The speed and cadence correlated with the most balance indexes (|r| > 0.335, P < 0.05). SLA correlated with SEBT in Brunnstrom Ⅳ patients (r = -0.467~-0.613, P < 0.01), while it correlated with medial-lateral (M-L) stability limits in Brunnstrom V patients (r = -0.356, P = 0.028). SWTA correlated with stability limit of Anterior-Posterior (A-P) (r = -0.335, P = 0.040) and M-L (r = 0.510, P = 0.001), and most of SEBT (r = -0.330~ -0.445, P < 0.05) in Brunnstrom Ⅳ patients. MFA of hip and knee correlated with balance indexes in Brunnstrom Ⅳ patients (|r| > 0.326, P < 0.05), while MFA of knee correlated with most balance indexes in Brunnstrom V patients (r > 0.329, P < 0.05), and MFA of hip correlated with A-P stability limit (r = 0.369, P = 0.023). Conclusion Both speed and cadence of steps can well respond to the balance function in stroke hemiplegic patients. For the asymmetry, it is related with balance in patients with poorer recovery.

How to effectively repair esophageal fistulas, caused by esophageal perforation, rupture and anastomotic leakage after esophagectomy has always been a key problem for the digestive surgeon. Although there are many clinical treatment methods, the therapeutic effect is still completely unsatisfactory, especially when severe mediastinal purulent cavity infection is associated with the esophageal fistula. In recent years, foreign centers have promoted a new minimally invasive endoscopic treatment technology to repair the esophageal fistula, endoscopic vacuum-assisted closure therapy, with significantly curative effect. In this article, we will review the specific operation, advantages and disadvantages, as well as the clinical efficacy of endoscopic vacuum-assisted closure therapy in treating the esophageal fistulas, to provide a new therapeutic technique for esophageal fistulas and expand the new field of minimally invasive endoscopic therapy.

Objective    To investigate the clinical effect of Maze Ⅳ in the treatment of elderly patients with valvular heart disease and persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods    We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 78 elderly patients with cardiac valve disease combined with persistent AF in our hospital from 2017 to 2018. The patients were allocated to two groups including a trial group (n=37) and a control group (n=41). There were 21 males and 16 females aged 61 to 74 (65.2±2.5) years in the trial group. There were 23 males and 18 females aged 62 to 76 (64.8±3.3) years in the control group. The clinical effects of the two groups were compared. Results    There was no statistical difference in baseline data between the two groups (P>0.05). The aortic occlusion time, extracorporeal circulation time, and operation time of the trial group were longer than those of the control group with statistical differences (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in postoperative ventilator assistance time, complication rate, mortality, ICU retention time, perioperative drainage, red blood cell transfusion volume, or length of hospital stay between the two groups (P>0.05). At the time of discharge, postoperaive 1-month, 3-month, 6-month, and 12-month, the maintenance rates of sinus rhythm in the control group were statistically different from those of the trial group (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, left atrial diameter, left ventricular end diastolic diameter and the decrease of pulmonary artery systolic blood pressure were statistically different (P<0.05). Conclusion    Maze Ⅳ is safe and effective in the treatment of elderly patients with valvular heart disease and persistent AF, which is conducive to the recovery and maintenance of sinus rhythm, and is beneficial to the remodeling of the left atrium and left ventricle and the reduction of pulmonary systolic blood pressure with improvement of life quality of the patients.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of co-culture with AEC (amniotic epithelial cell) on the biological characteristics of AMSC (amniotic mesenchymal stem cell), and to investigate the roles of SDF-1/CXCR4 axis in the homing and migration of AMSC. Methods: AMSC andAEC were isolated from human amnion, and then cultured, amplified and identified, respectively. TheAMSC were divided into three groups:AEC co-cultured group, serum-free cultured group and serum cultured group.After culture for 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h, the proliferation viability ofAMSC was measured by CCK-8 assay and trypan blue staining; the expression of CXCR4 mRNAwas analyzed by flow cytometry and Real-time RT-PCR, and the migration ability ofAMSC in vitro was observed by migration assay. Results: Cell viability (48 h and 72 h) and survival rate in the co-culture and serum groups were higher than those in the serum-free group (all P<0.05). The mRNA and protein expressions of CXCR4 in AMSC of the co-culture and serum-free groups were significantly higher than those of the serum group (P<0.05). The migration ability of AMSC in the co-culture and serumfree groups, which increase with the SDF-1 (stromal cell derived factor-1) concentration gradient, were higher than that in the serum group (P<0.05). Conclusion: AMSC co-cultured with AEC still have the basic biological characteristics of MSC, and showed good growth activity. Co-culture withAEC can up-regulate CXCR4 onAMSC surfaces and enhance the migration ability ofAMSC in vitro.

Objective To observe the effects of Children&#39;s Crawling-Promotion-Training-Robot on gross motor function and cognitive function in children with spastic diplegia.Methods From January to December, 2017, 60 children with spastic diplegia were selected and randomly divided into three groups, with 20 cases in each group. All the groups received routine comprehensive rehabilitation therapy. In addition, group I received manual crawling training, group II was treated with crawler-training therapy, and group III was treated with Children&#39;s Crawling-Promotion-Training-Robot. They were treated ten minutes every day, five days a week for twelve weeks. Before and after treatment, the gross motor development, the muscle tension and cognitive function were evaluated with Gross Motor Function Measure Scale-88 (GMFM-88), modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) and developmental quotient (DQ) in Gesell Developmental Scale (GDS), respectively.Results After treatment, the overall percentage of GMFM-88 and the score of C dimension which were tightly tied to crawling and kneeling improved in all the groups (t>17.438, P<0.001), and the score was better in groups II and III than in group I (P<0.05), especially in group III (P<0.05); the score of MAS improved in all the groups (t>2.144, P<0.05), and no significant difference was found among them (F=0.199, P>0.05); the score of DQ in GDS improved in groups II and III (t>3.040, P<0.001), and the score was better in groups II and III than in group I (P<0.05), especially in group III (P<0.05).Conclusion Children&#39;s Crawling-Promotion-Training-Robot could improve the gross motor and cognitive function of children with spastic diplegia, which is better than manual crawling training and crawler-training.

Two­photon microscopy is a new technique which combines laser scanning con-focal microscopy and two-photon excitation technique. Two-photon fluorescence microscopy has the advantages of little light damage, small bleaching area, strong penetrability, high resolution, high fluorescence collection efficiency, and high image contrast. It is suitable for dark field imaging and multi-labeled compound measurement, and has been widely used in small animals in vivo optical imaging, such as research for tumour, gene therapy, stem cells, drug development, spinal cord injury, etc.

MicroRNAs are short non-coding RNAs that regulate and control the translation of target genes, and play an important role in gene expression involved in the development of spinal cord and spinal cord injury, which constitute novel targets for therapeutic intervention to promote repair and regeneration of the spinal cord, also they are the potential biomarkers of spinal cord injury. This article reviewed the mechanism of microRNAs and listed several microRNAs in spinal cord injury area.
