ABSTRACT

@#The recovery of disorders of consciousness after brain injury is very difficult, music therapy is one of the important ways to promote the awakening. The effects of music therapy are various among individuals, the vegetative state and the minimally conscious state, and the pieces of music. The default mode network is one of the most important networks to maintain awareness, which many other networks participate in. The brain regions affected by music involve in many networks, including hearing, cognition, emotion, and so on.

ABSTRACT

@#Sensory Modality Assessment and Rehabilitation Technique (SMART) is one of the tools for assessing patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC) after brain injury, to detect signs and meaningful responses to the conscious presence of DOC patients, and to optimize the patient's potential communication and motor function through the development of a treatment plan, that can be used in the assessment, treatment, and long-term prognosis of patients with DOC. SMART can effectively reduce the misdiagnosis of DOC due to the environment, long observation and evaluation, the incorporation of family and care teams in the evaluation, and the normalization of the evaluation content. Besides an assessment tool, SMART provides treatment options. At present, the SMART treatment stage has been formalized, which can create personalized treatment plan for patients. The intervention after DOC evaluation can be divided into exploration, strengthening and education. SMART is advantaged in evaluation, treatment and prognosis, that can benefit the standardization of diagnosis and intervention of DOC in China.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the method of controlled cortical impact(CCI) on long term cognitive disorder after traumatic brain injury(TBI) and to investigate the possible pathological mechanism.Methods Sixty male SD rats were randomly assigned into 3 groups:sham surgery group(n =10),control group (n =10) and CCI group(n =40).CCI application was used to make the bilateral frontal lobe controlled cortical impact model (depth:1.5 mm,velocity =3.5 m/s,dwell time =400 ms).Morris water maze test and Nissl's staining was used to assess the cognitive function and pathological changes after 8 weeks of CCI.The expressions of brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and tyrosine protein kinase B (TrkB) mRNA in frontal lobe and hippocampus tissue was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results The mortality in CCI group was only 12.5%.Morris water maze test results showed the escape latency in CCI group was longer than that in sham surgery and control groups(F =51.784,P < 0.05).Percent of time spend in goal quarter during probe trial in CCI group was significantly less than that in sham surgery and control groups(F =13.468,P < 0.05).Nissl's staining showed frontal lobe had obviously defects; Nissl's bodies of frontal cortex and CA1 region in hippocampus reduced.The expressions of BDNF and TrkB mRNA in frontal lobe and hippocampus were significantly less than those in sham surgery and control groups(P < 0.05).Conclusions The CCI model can be applied for study on long term cognitive disorder after TBI with good stability and repeatability.Using the experimental parameters of CCI can damage the long term cognitive function after TBI in rats,and lead the pathology changes of brain tissue clearly.This may have some relationship with the expressions of BDNF and TrkB mRNA.

ABSTRACT

@#Objective To investigate the characteristics of Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and analyze the influence of age, coma or not, injury side, and injury area on the scores of MoCA. Methods 135 stroke patients were evaluated with MoCA. Results The scores were poor in delayed recalling, abstraction, verbal fluency, view space and executive function, and were less poor in naming, attention and orientation. There was significantly difference in the total score, attention, verbal fluency, delayed recalling and orientation of MoCA between older and younger patients (P<0.05). There was significantly difference in the total score, view space and executive function, attention, orientation between patients with coma and without coma (P<0.05). There was significantly difference in the total score, attention, verbal fluency, abstraction, delayed recalling and orientation between thoses with left side injury and right side injury (P<0.05). Compared with basal ganglia injury, front lobes injury tended to impact the total scores, attention, abstraction and delayed recalling (P<0.05); frontal, temporal and parietal lobes tended to impact the total score, naming, abstraction and delayed recalling (P<0.05). Conclusion The total scores of MoCA do reflect the cognitive impairment in patients with stroke, while the age, coma or not, injury side and injury area of the brain may impact the cognitive impairment in patients.

ABSTRACT

@# Objective To investigate the influence of age, injury side and injury area on Mini- Mental State Examination (MMSE)scores. Methods General data of 67 patients with severe traumatic brain injury were recorded, and they were assessed with MMSE. Results The scores were low in recalling, orientation, calculation, writing and drawing, while they were high in naming, memorizing, reiteration and comprehension. The total MMSE scores and the scores of space orientation and reading were lower in 45~65 years old patients than in 18~44 years old patients (P<0.05). There was significantly difference in time orientation, space orientation, recalling and calculation between basal ganglia injury and front lobes injury (P<0.05), as well as in total MMSE scores, time orientation, space orientation, calculation and drawing between basal ganglia injury and front, temporal and parietal lobes injury (P<0.05). Conclusion MMSE scores do reflect cognitive impairment in patients with traumatic brain injury, the specific age and injury area of the brain can influence the cognitive impairment in patients.

ABSTRACT

@#ObjectiveTo study the effect of a course of regular rehabilitation treatment on patients with different traumatic brain injury(TBI) course, explore the costs of one rehabilitation course in patients with different TBI course, and study the timing and focus of rehabilitation on patiens with different stages.Methods250 TBI patients were distributed to five groups by different TBI courses: <3 months, 3~6 months, 6 months~1 year, 1~2 years and >2 years. The clinical data and initial function evaluation were done at the admission. All of them received at least one regular rehabilitation treatment, then another function evaluation was done. Effects and costs of one rehabilitation course in patients with different TBI course were investigated.ResultsThe longer the duration of illness, the higher the cost-effectiveness ratio. The cost-effectiveness ratio of the second treatment course was higher than the first one. The patients within 12 months should receive a comprehensive rehabilitation treatment, and should be prevented and treated hydrocephalus and other complications; for patients within 1~2 years, there would be no significant improvement in balance and lower limb function, should enhance the training of activity of daily living (ADL) and upper extremity function; for the patients more than two years just improved ADL using of residual function.ConclusionTBI patients should accept rehabilitation as soon as possible, and should be conducted corresponding trainings according to different disease course.
