ABSTRACT
Aerosol microorganisms are important constituents of aerosols. They participate in physical and chemical reactions in the air and are also closely related to disease transmission and human health. With the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic， aerosol microorganisms have become a public health topic of great concern. Studying the composition and influencing factors of the air microbiome therefore has significant public health implications. Due to the limitations of traditional technologies for sampling and determination， the aerosol microbiome has not been fully understood. However， with the development and maturity of high-throughput sequencing technology， the aerosol microbiome has shown promising research prospects. This article reviews the composition， characteristics， detection methods and influencing factors of aerosol microorganisms， providing basic knowledge for further research on the air microbiome. In-depth research on microbial aerosols has significant implications on urban air quality control， national security and public health.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To observe the of changes of cerebral blood flow and electroencephalography in chronic cerebral circulation insufficiency (CCCI) treated with fastigial nucleus stimulation (FNS) and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO). Methods 144 cases of CCCI were divided into 4 groups: 36 cases were treated with FNS and HBO, 36 cases with FNS, 36 cases with HBO, 36 cases without any treatment as control group. The blood velocity of anterior, middle, posterior cerebral arteries, vertebral artery and basilar artery were measured with transcranial Doppler (TCD) and the brain waves （α, β, δ, θ） were recorded with electroencephalography (EEG) before and after the treatment. Results Compared with the control, the brain blood velocity and α wave increased in all the treatment groups, especially in the HBO+FNS group, while β, δ, θ waves decreased (P<0.05). Conclusion FNS and HBO can increase cerebral blood flow and improve the cerebral function respectively.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the clinical therapeutic effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy and swallowing training combined with Fengchi acupoint acupuncture on dysphagia caused by pseudobulbar paralysis after stroke. Methods Seventy-five patients were randomly divided into control group, HBO therapy group, swallow training group, acupuncture group and combined treatment group (n = 15). Patients in all groups were given cerebro-vascular disease routine treatment. In addition, the patients in HBO therapy group, swallowing training group and ac-upuncture group were given HBO therapy, swallowing training and Fengehi (GB20) acupoint acupuncture simultane-ously, respectively. The patients in combined treatment group were given HBO therapy combined with swallowing training and Fengchi acupoint acupuncture. Modified Kubota-Chiari's swallowing functional classification was used to assess swallowing function before and on the 3rd d,6th d,9th d, 12th d, 15th d, 18th d and 21st d after treatment. Results It was shown that the patients in all groups but the control group got significant improvement in swallowing after treatment, as demonstrated by the swallowing function scores (P < 0.05). Moreover, the priority order in im-provement of swallowing function and recovering rate were: combined treatment group > acupuncture group > swal-low training group > HBO therapy group > control group(P < 0.05). Conclusion The combination of HBO ther-apy, swallowing training and Fengchi acupoint acupuncture could act synergically to ameliorate dysphagia caused by pseudobulbar paralysis after stroke.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To observe the effect of hyperbaric oxygen,rehabilitation training or acupuncture at Fengchi acupoint on pseudobulbar paralysis after stroke.Methods 90 patients were divided into group Ⅰ(A,B,C) or Ⅱ(A,B,C) randomly.Patients in all groups were given conventional therapy,while those in groups ⅠB and ⅡB were given hyperbaric oxygen,ⅠC and ⅡC were given swallowing training and group Ⅱ was given acupuncture at Fengchi acupoint additionally.They were assessed with Modified Kubota-Chiari's swallowing functional classification before and after treatment.Results In all groups except ⅠA,swallowing function scores improved after treatment significantly(P<0.05).The scores were different significantly between group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ after treatment(P<0.05).Except 3 d after treatment,the scores were different significantly between sub-group of group Ⅰ or group Ⅱon other time points(P<0.05).Conclusion The hyperbaric oxygen is more effective than conventional therapy on pseudobulbar paralysis,but less than swallowing training.Acupuncture at Fengchi acupoint can improve their efficacy.
