Troubles psychotiques révélateurs de maladie de Creutzfeldt-Jakob sporadique

The onset of the sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is usually characterized by dementia or neurological symptoms. We are reporting the case of a 31 year-old man with a sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease characterized by a schizophrenia-like onset. The schizophrenic symptoms developed for sixteen months before the neurological symptoms appeared. The psychiatric onset of the present case was linked with the early age of onset and the long duration of the disease and could have been influenced by polymorphism of the codon 129 of the prion protein gene (PRNP) and a type of pathological prion protein (PrPres).     

Cerebral autoregulation is preserved in multiple system atrophy: A transcranial Doppler study.

Patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA) present large changes in blood pressure (BP) due to autonomic disturbances. We analyzed how this change may influence dynamic cerebral autoregulation (DCA). Simultaneous recordings of arterial BP (Finapres) and middle cerebral artery (MCA) blood flow velocity (BFV) (transcranial Doppler) were performed in 10 patients with MSA (61 +/- 12 yr of age) and 12 healthy volunteers (61 +/- 11 yr of age): cerebral BFV response to oscillations in mean BP was studied in the supine position by cross-spectral analysis of mean BP and mean MCA BFV. The DCA was also studied during the decrease in BP the first seconds when standing up from a sitting position by the assessment of the cerebrovascular resistance index (CR; mean BP/mean MCA BFV ratio). The MCA BFV/BP cross-spectral analysis showed a phase for the mid-frequency band (0.07-0.2 Hz) significantly larger in MSA, suggesting more active autoregulation in response to larger changes in BP. Changes in CR reflecting the rate of autoregulation, when standing did not differ between the two groups. These data suggest that dynamic cerebral autoregulation is preserved in MSA.     

超短波对大鼠坐骨神经损伤后脊髓内GAP-43和CGRP表达的影响

目的探讨超短波对坐骨神经损伤后大鼠脊髓中GAP-43和CGRP表达的影响。方法60只成年雌性SD大鼠制成右侧坐骨神经钳夹损伤模型，随机分为超短波治疗组和非治疗对照组。免疫荧光方法观察术后1周、2周、4周、8周和12周不同时间点两组大鼠脊髓中GAP-43和CGRP表达的动态变化规律。结果大鼠坐骨神经损伤后脊髓内GAP-43和CGRPmRNA表达增强。术后1、2、4和8周超短波治疗组的变化与对照组比较差异有统计学意义（P〈0．05），且GAP-43的表达在时间上早于对照组。结论超短波在早期能够明显增加GAP-43和CGRP的表达量，提示早期应用超短波治疗能够促进周围神经的     

移植人羊膜细胞对大鼠创伤性脑损伤的实验研究

目的 探究大鼠TBI后脑内移植人羊膜细胞（HACs）对大鼠运动功能的影响。方法 HACs经分离、Hoechst33342标记后重悬调整细胞浓度为10^5/μl；采用改进的Feeney自由落体法打击大鼠脑皮层后肢运动区域，损伤后24h经微量注射器和立体定向仪将Hoechst33342标记的HACs 10μl分别移植于挫伤灶中心和挫伤灶边缘；在TBI后的28d内采用钉板平衡木行走测试大鼠运动功能变化，运动功能检测结束后取出脑组织行组织学检测。结果 治疗组滑落脚步数明显少于对照组（P〈0．05）；移植的HACs呈蓝色荧光；部分移植HACs可见MAP-2阳性表达。结论 移植HACs使大鼠TBI后运动功能明显改善。     

促血小板生成素对预测脑瘫高危儿的意义

目的探讨缺氧缺血性脑病(hypoxia-ischem ia encephalopathy,H IE)胎儿和H IE新生儿血清中促血小板生成素(Thrombopoietin,TPO)水平与脑损伤的关系,为脑瘫(cerebral palsy,CP)高危儿人群进行早期干预提供监测手段。方法收集23例H IE胎儿和34例H IE新生儿血清以及25例正常胎儿和30例正常新生儿血清,34例H IE新生儿包括11例轻度H IE,8例中度H IE和15例重度H IE。采用双抗体夹心ABC-ELISA法检测H IE胎儿组和轻、中、重H IE新生儿组血清中TPO的水平,并与正常胎儿组和正常新生儿组比较。结果H IE胎儿组和H IE新生儿组TPO分别高于正常胎儿组和正常新生儿组(分别P<0.01,P<0.01),重度H IE组TPO低于轻度H IE组(P<0.05)。结论血清TPO水平与H IE所致脑损伤严重程度有关。脐血TPO检测可为脑瘫高危儿人群进行早期干预提供监测手段。     

一种防脱出易制作义眼台的研制

目的探讨一种新型简易防脱出的义眼台的制作方法与效果。方法根据眼球摘除后的解剖特点设计义眼台大小,选择聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯和涤纶布为材料制作复合材料义眼台,并对6只家兔行眼球摘除后置入义眼台,经HE染色观察及肉眼观察术后不同时间置入物与眼周围组织的解剖关系。结果聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯部分与组织无黏连,涤纶布形成牢固黏连,周围有纤维组织长入并包绕,义眼台无脱出、移位。结论以聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯和涤纶布为材料制作复合义眼台,方法简易,效果可靠,组织相容性好,术后反应轻,值得在临床上推广使用。
