Résumé
Objective To investigate the role of HBO on the change of levels of ACA and thrombomodulin among parents with ischemic encephalopathy. Methods Patients were divided into three groups: group A (patients with atherosclerosis and thrombosis),group B (patients with cardiogenic embolism) and group C (patients with small artery lesion). All patients were treated with HBO and regular drugs. And then sss scores were recorded and levels of ACA-IgG and thrombomodulin were detected by ELISA before and after therapy of HBO. Results The index of ACA-IgG and lelvel of TM in A,B and C group were higher than those in control group,there are differences among them(P＜0.05),and the level of them were higher in B group than in A and C group.There were significant differences in SSS score for brain function using different therapies in A、B and C group (P＜0.05), but there are no differences among them(P＞0.05).There were differences in the index of ACA-IgG and thrombomodulin using different therapies in A,B and C group(P＜0.05),however,there were no differences among them (P＞0.05). Conclusion HBO can alleviate clinical symptoms and improve recovery of neuron by decreasing the level of ACA-IgG and thrombomodulin in blood,but the effect is not significantly different for ischemic encephalopathy caused by different factors.

Objective To evaluate the predictive value of ABCD2 scoring system in cerebral infarction and death events in the medium-term after transient ischemic attack (TIA) of Chinese population. Methods One hundred and seventy-nine patients with TIA having complete clinical data,admitted to our hospital from January 2008, were chosen in our perspective study. The ABCD2 scale was applied to all the patients and used to observe the 18-month cerebral infarction risk events; according to these data, patients after TIA were divided into cerebral infarction group and non-cerebral infarction group; To the end of 18 months, according to the death event, the patients were divided into survival group and death group. The age, level of blood pressure, clinical features, duration of symptoms and history of diabetes were collected and compared between each 2 groups; the cutofflevel of ABCI2 scale for anticipating cerebral infarction risk and mortality was evaluated according to receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results Among the studied 179 patients, 52 patients appeared cerebral infarctions within 18 months of TIA; patients in the cerebral infarction group had significantly higher percentage of patients with blood pressure ≥ 140/90 mm Hg (86.5％), unilateral weakness (42.3％),duration of symptoms ≥60 minutes (55.8％), or duration of symptoms 10 to 59 minutes (40.4％), and diabetes (80.8％) as compared with patients in the non-cerebral infarction group (P＜0.05). According to the ROC curve, area under curve was 0.874 of ABCD2 scale for anticipating cerebral infarction risk, 95％confidence interval (CI) was 0.817-0.931 and the cutoff level of ABCD2 scale for anticipating medium-term cerebral infarction risk was 4.5. Among the studied 179 patients, 35 patients died within 18months of TIA; no significant difference in the scores of ABCD2 scale was noted between survival group and death group (P＞0.05); according to ROC curve, area under curve was 0.492 of ABCD2 scale for anticipating mortality, and 95％ CI was 0.389-0.596. Conclusion ABCD2 scale has predictive value in cerebral infarction event, while not in death event in the medium-term of TIA.

Objective To investigate the role and the mechanism of NgR (310)ecto-Fc in experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). Methods EAE models were successfully induced in 90 Lewis rats and equally randomized into group A (without treatment), group B (giving NgR(310)ecto-Fc treatment 1 d after the success of model making) and group C (giving NgR(310)ecto-Fc treatment right after onset of the disease). The clinical scores, pathological changes of the animals were observed and compared before and after treatment. Changes of NgR expression and counts of NgR(310)ecto-Fc positive cells in the myeloid tissue were tested by immunohistochemistry before and after treatment.Results Clinical scores in group B (3.020±1.017, 1.365±0.127) and group C (2.853±0.958, 1.275±0.092) were significantly lower than those in group A (4.476± 1.525, 1.894+0.135) on the 15th and 25th d of success of model making (P＜0.05), while no significant differences on the clinical scores were noted between group B and group C. NgR expression was observed in the myeloid tissue of all groups; the counts of NgR(310)ecto-Fc positive cells in the myeloid tissue in group B (79.07± 10.31, 45.89±4.77) and group C (70.47±7.40, 40.63±4.15) were obviously decreased as compared with those in group A (101.12±11.97, 62.95±7.11) on the 15th and 25th d of success of model making (P＜0.05); while no significant differences on the counts of NgR (310)ecto-Fc positive cells were noted between group B and group C (P＞0.05). Conclusion NgR (310)ecto-Fc can alleviate the clinical symptoms of EAE by suppressing the expression of NgR, leading to no activation of myelin-related inhibitory factor (Nogo-A, MAG and OMgp), and inducing the growth of axons in EAE.
