RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Naloxone has a significant arousal effect on many types of comas. It is usually believed that this is because its inhibition on endogenous opioid peptides. But depth of coma is not necessarily positively correlated to endorphin (EP).OBJECTIVE: Based on existing findings on direct stimulating effect of naloxone on cerebral cortex, further studies need to be done to explore whether it is dose-dependent or not.DESIGN: Single-factor design based on cells.SETTING: Neurology department in a university hospital and the neurology department in a hospital of a military medical university of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: This study was completed in the Laboratory Center of Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Thirty healthy new born Wistar rats, regardless of their gender, aging 8 - 12 days and weighing 150 -250 g, were selected.METHODS: The experiment was performed at room temperature. The perfusion slot were placed on the microscope stage, and cells with smooth surfaces, triangle or pyramidal shapes, strong refraction and more than one neurites were selected for patch clamp experiment. Patch clamp whole-cell recording technique was used to measure the pyramidal cells of the frontal lobe immediately after separated from the Wistar rats, and to investigate the fluctuations of their membrane potential of cerebral cortex neurons and the frequencies of their spontaneous electric activities after administration of naloxone at different doses.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The neural excitatory reaction rate, depolarization amplitude and increasing rate of spontaneous electric activities after administration of different doses of naloxone were selected as main outcome measurements.RESULTS: The excitatory reaction rates of cerebral cortex neurons immediately after separation to doses of naloxone(100, 50, 10, 1, 0. 1 μmol/L)were 83%, 67%, 86%, 71% and 33%; while the depolarization amplitude of them were 9. 8, 9.6, 8.4, 5.2 and 1. 3 mV respectively; and the corresponding spontaneous electric activity were increased by 587% , 375% ,291%, 125% and 69%.CONCLUSION: Naloxone can induce excitatory reactions in cerebral cortex neurons directly, and the reactions have proved to be dose-dependent.
RESUMEN
@#ObjectiveTo observe the effect of early rehabilitation on the clinical neurodefect score,limb movement ability,ability of daily living(ADL)after intracerebral hematoma eliminated by neuroendoscope.Methods31 cases after intracerebral hematoma eliminated by neuroendoscope were randomly divided into two groups:rehabilitation group(16 cases) and control group(15 cases).Rehabilitation group were treated with serial rehabilitation programs after the patients' living sign had been stable over 48 hours.ResultsIn rehabilitation group, the clinical neurodefect score,amended Fugl Meyer assessment score and Bathel index score were better than that in control(P<0.05).ConclusionsEarly rehabilitation after intracerebral hematoma eliminated by neuroendoscope can reduce neurodefect degree and disability rates,improve limbs movement ability and ADL.
RESUMEN
Objective To observe blood plasma matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) of the patients with different types of carotid plaque and investigate the relationship between MMP-9 and carotid plaque vulnerability. Methods Totally 64 patients were examined by CDI, TCD, cranium CT, MRI, DSA and nerves function score (NIHSS) to judge their types of carotid plaque. Their plasma levels of MMP-9 and C-reactive protein (CRP) were detected. Results Plasma MMP-9 had direct correlation with plaque vulnerability(r=0.92,P
