Effect of multi-target transcranial direct current stimulation on performance of working memory-postural control dual-task in healthy adults / 中国康复理论与实践

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of multi-target transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and single-target tDCS on the performance of working memory-postural control dual-task in healthy adults, and to compare the regulatory effect of the two stimulation protocols. MethodsFrom November, 2020 to February, 2021, 19 healthy adults in Shanghai University of Sport were recruited and randomly accepted multi-target tDCS, single-target tDCS and sham stimulation with at least one week interval between any two stimulation protocols. The target areas of multi-target tDCS included left dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex (L-DLPFC) and bilateral primary motor cortex (M1), and single-tDCS only applied to L-DLPFC. Before and after stimulation, participants completed walking and standing balance tests under single task and dual-task conditions with the second task being a N-back task. The dual-task postural control performance, dual-task cost (DTC) and working memory performance were observed before and after stimulation. ResultsSignificant differences were observed among three stimulation protocols in the changes of stride variability (F = 3.792, P = 0.029), DTC of stride variability (F = 3.412, P = 0.040) and velocity of center of pressure (Vcop) (F = 3.815, P = 0.029). The stride variability (P = 0.047) and Vcop (P = 0.015) were significantly lower and the decrease in DTC of stride variability tended to be significant (P = 0.073) following multi-target tDCS, as compared to sham stimulation. Single-target tDCS significantly decreased the changes of stride variability (P = 0.011), DTC of stride variability (P = 0.014) and Vcop (P = 0.025), as compared to sham stimulation. Compared with single target tDCS, multi-target tDCS reduced the changes of the dual-task cost of the area of center of pressure (P = 0.035). Moreover, no significant difference was observed among the three stimulation protocols in the changes of each measure in the working memory test (P > 0.05). ConclusionBoth multi-target tDCS and single-target tDCS can improve the performance of working memory-postural control dual-task in healthy adults, and compared with single-target tDCS, multi-target tDCS has some advantages in regulating postural control.

Pharmacokinetics,distribution,and excretion of sodium oligomannate,a recently approved anti-Alzheimer's disease drug in China / 药物分析学报

The National Medical Products Administration has authorized sodium oligomannate for treating mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease.In this study,an LC-MS/MS method was developed and validated to quantitate sodium oligomannate in different biomatrices.The plasma pharmacokinetics,tissue distri-bution,and excretion of sodium oligomannate in Sprague-Dawley rats and beagle dogs were system-atically investigated.Despite its complicated structural composition,the absorption,distribution,metabolism,and excretion profiles of the oligosaccharides in sodium oligomannate of different sizes and terminal derivatives were indiscriminate.Sodium oligomannate mainly crossed the gastrointestinal epithelium through paracellular transport following oral administration,with very low oral bioavail-ability in rats(0.6％-1.6％)and dogs(4.5％-9.3％).Absorbed sodium oligomannate mainly resided in circulating body fluids in free form with minimal distribution into erythrocytes and major tissues.So-dium oligomannate could penetrate the blood-cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)barrier of rats,showing a con-stant area under the concentration-time curve ratio(CSF/plasma)of approximately 5％.The cumulative urinary excretion of sodium oligomannate was commensurate with its oral bioavailability,supporting that excretion was predominantly renal,whereas no obvious biliary secretion was observed following a single oral dose to bile duct-cannulated rats.Moreover,only 33.7％(male)and 26.3％(female)of the oral dose were recovered in the rat excreta within 96 h following a single oral administration,suggesting that the intestinal flora may have ingested a portion of unabsorbed sodium oligomannate as a nutrient.

Reducing Dimension of Biomechanical Parameters of On-Water Rowing Technique and its Application in Rowing Training / 医用生物力学

Objective To extract key parameters from a series of biomechanical parameters of rowing technique, so as to provide useful information for coach training. Methods Based on rowing performance of 16 rowers in national team, the factor analysis was used to extract reducing dimension of biomechanical parameters of rowing technique of 80 oxygen utilisation 2 （UT2） training pieces. Results The biomechanical parameters of rowing techniques were classified as technical characteristic factors (angle of 70% peak force, work portion of per 25% stroke length, drive start time, finish slip, position of peak force and angle of peak force), power factor (rower power, average of boat power, port swivel power and stroke swivel power), stroke length factor (catch angle and finish angle) and oar’s motion factor (recovery time, stroke rate and distance of per stroke). Conclusions Monitoring and analyzing these biomechanical factors would contribute coaches and scientific researchers to accurately judge the technical characteristics and shortcomings of rowers.

Successful perform of prolonged cardiopulmonary and cerebral resuscitation on repeated cardiac arrest:one case report / 中华危重病急救医学

Cardiac arrest (CA) is the most serious clinical emergency situation and cardiopulmonary-cerebral resuscitation (CPCR) performed on site with high quality is the optional therapy for its management. It has been reported that prolonging the resuscitation time after 30-minute failed conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) could improve the in-hospital survival rate of CA patients, and how to improve the out-hospital survival rate and survival quality of these patients is a research hot focus at present. A male patient admitted to Emergency Center of Shihezi People's Hospital reported in Xinjiang in this study had two CAs. In 2002, he experienced Adams-Strokes syndrome due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and survived after 35-minute of successful CPR. The criminal vessel was judged to re-canalize clinically 2 hours after thrombolytic therapy with urokinase, and he was cured and discharged from hospital 25 days later. In 2016, the second CA insult him and after the 185-minute CPR, he survived but experienced the post-CA syndrome. As long as 7-day continuous mild hypothermia was performed, the temperature of displacement fluids in continuous blood purification (CBP) was adjusted to 35 ℃ to achieve the goal of brain protection management requirements. He was cured and discharged from hospital 75 days later. During the 9-month follow-up, he did well in activities of daily living and could engage in routine housework. This paper introduces the treatment process of the patient in detail, and provides experience for clinical treatment.
