Abstract:Objective To investigate the changes of estradiol( E2) and prolactin( PRL) levels before and after treatment and their relationship with clinical efficacy in bipolar disorder patients. Methods A total of 57 patients( 36 male, 21 female) who met the diagnostic criteria of international disease classification (Tenth Edition)( ICD-10) for bipolar disorder in Beijing Huilongguan Hospital from January 2014 to May 2015 were recruited, among which there were 39 cases of bipolar mania and 18 cases of bipolar depression. After admission, patients were treated with drugs for 6 weeks. Depressive symptoms were assessed by Hamilton Depression Scale-24 items( HAMD-24), and manic symptoms were assessed by Bech-Rafaelsen Mania Rating Scale( BRMS). The serum E2 and PRL levels in peripheral blood were detected by chemiluminescence immunoassay. Results Compared with the baseline, the PRL level decreased after the treatment, and the difference was statistically significant( P=0.01), while there was no significant increase in E2( P>0.05). The PRL of the mania phase group decreased, and the difference was statistically significant( P=0.01). The changes in PRL and E2 of the depression phase group were not significant( P>0.05). After the treatment, the BRMS score of mania phase group and HAMD score of depression phase group were statistically decreased, and the differences were statistically significant( P < 0.01). A positive correlation was found between PRL levels and scores of BRMS before treatment in mania phase group( r=0.41,P< 0.01). The change level of PRL and E2 before and after treatment in mania phase group was positively correlated with the reduction of BRMS score (r=0.39,P < 0.01;r=0.33,P=0.03). Conclusions PRL level decreased after the psychiatric medicine treatment in bipolar disorder patients and mania phase patients. There is a correlation between the level of PRL and the manic symptoms and curative effect.

Abstract:Objective To investigate the risk factors of vascular cognitive impairment with no dementia( VCIND) in patients with moderate to severe internal carotid artery( ICA) stenosis, and to provide reference for clinical prevention and treatment of VCIND. Methods A retrospective analysis was made of 56 patients with moderate or severe ICA stenosis admitted from April to December 2017, including 26 with VCIND and 30 without VCIND. The clinical data of the two groups were analyzed by univariate analysis, and the risk factors of VCIND in ICA patients with moderate or severe stenosis were analyzed by Logistic regression. Results Univariate analysis revealed that age, systolic blood pressure, cerebrovascular reserve, homocysteinemia( Hcy) were relative factors of VCIND in patients with moderate to severe ICA stenosis (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the patient's impaired cerebrovascular reserve and hyperhomocysteinemia were independent risk factors for VCIND in patients with moderate to severe ICA stenosis (OR=6.333,3.733,P < 0.05). Conclusions Impaired cerebrovascular reserve and hyperhomocysteinemia were independent risk factors for VCIND in patients with moderate to severe ICA stenosis.

Abstract:Objective To observe the efficacy and safety of sertraline and celecoxib in the treatment of post-stroke depression( PSD). Methods From May 2015 to Decemer 2017, a total of 60 patients with PSD in the Neurology Department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University were randomly divided into study group( n=30) and control group( n=30). Both groups were given conventional medication. The study group was additionally given sertraline and celecoxib, while the control group was given additionally sertraline and placebo for 6 weeks. The efficacy and safety of the two groups were evaluated with the Hamilton Depression table(HAMD) and adverse symptoms scale before treatment and at the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 6th week after treatment. Results After 6 weeks of treatment, the effective rates of the study group and the control group were 83.3%( 25/30) and 76.67%( 23/30) respectively. There was significant statistical difference between the two groups( χ2=6.75, P<0.05). The HAMD score of the study group at the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 6th week after treatment were all lower than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant( P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the difference of incidence of adverse effect[ 23.33%( 7/30) vs 20.00%( 6/30)]. In addition, the adverse effects were mild. Conclusions The efficacy of sertraline combined with celecoxib in the treatment of PSD was better than that of sertraline alone. It takes effect more quickly than sertraline alone. But the safety of sertraline combined with celecoxib in the treatment of PSD was comparable to that of sertraline alone.

Abstract:Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation combined with dietary guidance on dysphagia after stroke. Methods A total of 95 patients with dysphagia after cerebral apoplexy were enrolled in this study from June 2014 to October 2016, and were randomly divided into the study group and the control group. There were 47 cases in the case group and 48 cases in the control group. There were 2 cases of shedding in the case group and 3 cases in the control group due to pulmonary infection. The control group received traditional swallowing rehabilitation training. On the basis of traditional swallowing rehabilitation training, the patients in the case group received neuromuscular electrical stimulation therapy according to the causes of swallowing disorders, combined with corresponding dietary guidance, including improving food characteristics, adjusting patients' eating position, improving feeding methods, choosing eating apparatus, training swallowing skills and so on. To evaluate the efficacy of the treatment, vidio fluoroscopic swallowing study( VFSS), Functional Oral Intake Scale( FOIS) and Videofluoroscopic Dysphagia Scale( VDS) were applied to evaluate patients with dysphagia after stroke. Results The functional scores of the two groups were significantly improved after the training( P< 0.05). The functional score of the case group after training was significantly higher than that of the control group( P < 0.05). The improvement of the case group was significantly better than that of the control group. Before the intervention of the two groups, the feeding condition and VDS score were not statistically significant( P > 0.05). After the intervention, the feeding situation and VDS score of both groups were improved to a certain extent, and the case group was superior to the control group( P<0.05). The total effective rate of the case group was 86.67%, the control group was 68.90%, and the case group was higher than the control group( χ2=3.38, P=0.026). Conclusions Neuromuscular electrical stimulation combined with dietary guidance and swallowing training has a better improvement of swallowing dysfunction in patients after stroke than using swallowing training alone.

Abstract:Post stroke depression( PSD) refers to a group of affective disorder syndrome after stroke. The diagnosis of PSD depends on the diagnostic criteria of the symptomatology of depression, and disease assessment requires mastering the time and scope of the relevant assessment scale. At present, researches on the risk factors of PSD involve neural function, metabolism, psychosocial and oxidative stress. Prevention of PSD mainly includes drug intervention and psychological intervention. Besides that, physical therapy and traditional Chinese medicine also gradually show the advantages in preventing disease. Identifying high-risk groups and improving interventions for PSD can significantly reduce the incidence, recurrence rate and mortality of PSD, and improve the prognosis of patients with stroke.
