ABSTRACT
@#ObjectiveTo establish a new method for preparing synaptosomes.MethodsDensity gradient centrifugation method was used to isolate synaptosomes of mouse, checking by transmission electron microscopy.ResultsSynaptosomes prepared by this method had intact morphological characteristics, surrounding with a continuous oval-shaped membrane structure, moreover, mitochondrion and lots of synaptic vesicle in them.ConclusionThis method is applicable to establish a rapid, convenient and useful method for preparing synaptosomes.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To observe effects for exercise and diet on learning and memory ability in mice with encephalon aging induced by D-galactose(D-gal).Methods The model of mice with encephalon aging was made by D-gal.The learning and memory ability of mice was determined by Morris water maze.Results There was significant difference between high fat feed encephalon aging group and restrict food on normal feed encephalon aging group,normal feed and exercise encephalon aging group,high fat feed and exercise encephalon aging group,high fat feed normal group,normal feed and exercise group,normal feed group(all P<0.05).In spatial probe test,there was significant difference between restrict food on normal feed encephalon aging group and normal feed encephalon aging group(all P<0.05).Conclusion Exercise and restrict food can improve the learning and memory function in the mice;feed with high fat can promote encephalon aging.
ABSTRACT
@#ObjectiveTo make sure the factors of influencing supply and utilization rehabilitation service of hospitals in Beijing.MethodsFive grade A hospitals in different districts in Beijing were surveyed to realize the condition and factors of influencing supply and utilization of rehabilitation service in polyclinics in Beijing and make sure the developing situation of departments of rehabilitation medicine, and its restriction factors in their hospitals.ResultsThe departments of rehabilitation medicine in the five hospitals had not reached to requirement of administer criterion to comprehensive hospitals, issued by Ministry of Health. The factors of influencing supply and utilization of rehabilitation service in polyclinics in Beijing included: discordant cooperation between rehabilitation section and other sections in hospitals; leaders of hospitals and clinical personnel not understanding the importance of rehabilitation early intervention much; patients and their family not understanding the special curative effect to prevent and treat disability of rehabilitation; the application for reimbursement limitation to the fee for patients to accept rehabilitation treatment and/or stay in rehabilitation section in hospitalization insurance and plan as a whole, and so on.ConclusionThe factors above limit the further development of rehabilitation service of polyclinics in Beijing. Effective measures should be taken and correlative policies should be established in order to promote the rehabilitation service in Beijing.
ABSTRACT
@# ObjectiveTo observe the effects of comprehensive therapy on central pain after incomplete spinal cord injury. Methods12 patients with central pain after incomplete spinal cord injury who accepted comprehensive therapy were assessed with McGill pain questionnaire (MPQ) and visual analogue scale (VAS) before and after treating. ResultsThe scores of pain rating index sensory quality (PRI-S), pain rating index totality (PRI-T), the number of words chosen (NWC), pain rating index affective quality (PRI-A) and present pain intensity (PPI)max in MPQ and VAS were significantly decreased(P<0.01 or P<0.05).ConclusionThe comprehensive therapy is practical effective on central pain after incomplete spinal cord injury.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To approach the neurobiochemical mechanism of chronic central pain (CCP) after spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods 28 SD rats were divided into four groups, the normal group (group A), the pseudosurgery group (group B), and groups with CCP (group C) and without CCP (group D) after L1 spinal cord section injured with WADE method. T13 and L2 segments of rats' spinal cord were took and concentration changes of substance P (SP) in the spinal dorsal horn between two sections were examined by immunofluorescence histochemistry staining combined with confocal laser scanning microscope. Results Concentration of SP in the group D was decreased significantly compared with groups C,A and B (P<0.05-0.01), that of the group C was less than that of group A and B (P<0.05). Conclusion The rat model established by WADE method is proper to study CCP after SCI. SP in dorsal horn of spinal cord may inhibit the CCP after SCI in some degrees.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To analyze general and trace elements in cerebral spinal fluid (CSF)of patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods To assess contents of general and trace elements (K, Na, Ca, Mg, Zn, Mn, Fe, Cu) in CSF of six SCI patients using ICP-AES. Results Compared with normal value, contents of Ca and Zn were significantly decreased (P<0.01), Fe and Mn were significantly increased (P<0.01), but no significant differences for Na, Mg, K and Cu in CSF of SCI patients. Conclusion The excitation of central nerve system in SCI patients may be higher than normal people indeed.
