干细胞增殖与分化的过程受多种内在机制和微环境的影响[1].脉冲电磁场(pulsed electromagnetic fields,PEMFs)作为一种非侵入性的物理干预方法,在临床上多用于治疗骨质疏松及骨不连[2].美国乔治亚理工学院、台湾中原大学、韩国国民大学、意大利菲拉市大学以及国内武汉华中同济大学和四川大学等诸多国内外科研机构和学者对PEMFs的生物学效应进行了深入研究.本文对PEMFs如何调控骨髓间充质干细胞、表皮干细胞、前软骨干细胞、神经干细胞及脂肪干细胞等的增殖与分化进行阐述;对其相关机制进行探讨,发现PEMFs可能通过影响细胞膜电位、细胞间信息传递、第二信使、基因调控以及氧化应激反应等调控干细胞的增殖与分化.因此,可以推断PEMFs通过直接或协同干预的方式发挥其生物学效应,调控干细胞的增殖与分化,在康复医学、组织工程学和再生医学等领域中具有广泛的应用前景.
BACKGROUND:Whole body vibration training, a recently developed method of neuromuscular training, is a useful method to improve muscle strength and postural control in the elderly. Recently, researchers attempt to explore whether whole body vibration training can reduce motor dysfunction for stroke patients. <br> OBJECTIVE:To summarize clinical progress in whole body vibration treatment on stroke patients with limb motor dysfunction, including muscle strength of the affected limbs, muscle tension, balance and gait. <br> METHODPubMed, EBSCO, Medline database were searched for articles relate to whole body vibration training intervention for stroke patients with motor dysfunction published from January 2002 to June 2014. Final y, 34 articles were included in result analysis. <br> RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Whole body vibration training is feasible and safe for stroke patients has the feasibility and safety. For therapeutic efficacy, we focus on the muscle strength, muscle tone, balance, posture control ability, but there is no sufficient evidence to support that the whole body vibration training can improve the motor dysfunction. There is also no recognized standard on specific intervention protocols, such as vibration type, treatment frequency, treatment amplitude, treatment time. Many researchers aim to observe the clinical curative effect at present, but rarely explore the intervention mechanism of the whole body vibration. Further large-sample, multi-center randomized control ed experiments are required to test the validity.

Objective This study focuses on systematic evaluation of the safety and the curative effect of intravenous vernakalant for rapid conversion of atrial fibrillation(AF).Methods Retrieve the related literature from Pub Med,Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials,The ISI Web of Knowledge Databases,EMBASE,www.clinicaltrials.gov,CBMdisc,CHKD,the time is ranging from the database′s initial construction to November 30,2011.In all the clinical trials for the vernakalant therapy of AF,three researchers will evaluate its quality and extract its information according to the The Grading of Recommendations Assessment,Development and Evaluation(GRADE) and then Meta analysis will be conducted on the results which meet the quality standard.Results Six randomized controlled trials(RCTs)(1 325 patients) met inclusion criteria and were included into this system. According to the outcomes of GRADE system,three are of high quality: the success rate of rapid conversion of paroxysmal AF,the success rate of rapid conversion of paroxysmal recent-onset AF,and the mortality;two of them were of moderate quality: the successrate of rapid conversion of persistent AF and the incidence of drug SAEs(serious adverse events).The following were the results of Meta analysis: ①Rapid conversion of paroxysmal AF: within 60 or 90 min,success rate of vernakalant group was superior to control group[50.15% vs 6.22%,OR 12.47, 95% CI(6.73,23.14),P<0.00001].②Rapid conversion rate of recent-onset AF:success rate of vernakalant group was superior to control group[57.02% vs 5.08%,OR 23.57,95% CI(11.86,46.85),P<0.00001] ③Rapid conversion rate of persistent AF: compared to control,vernakalant showed a higher rate of success,but there were no statistical difference between both groups [10.19% vs 1.30%,OR 6.31,95% CI(1.06,37.70),P=0.04].④Incidence of SAEs: there was no statistical difference between both groups [8.36% vs 9.26%,OR 0.95,95% CI(0.67,1.35),P=0.78]. ⑤Mortality rate:among the entire deaths one patient in the deaths was confirmed as vernakalant.Conclusion Vernakalant is effective and well-tolerated in the rapid conversion of recent-onset AF and paroxysmal AF,and will not increase the mortality rate and SAEs.
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS) in treating stroke patients with motor dysfunction.Methods?The Cochrane Library,MEDLINE,EMbase,CBM,CNKI and WanFang Data were searched from inception to January 2012,and the references of the included studies were also retrieved to collect the randomized controlled trials(RCTs) on rTMS in treating stroke patients with motor dysfunction.Two reviewers independently screened articles according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,extracted data and evaluated the quality of the included studies.Then meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.0.2 software,and evidence quality and recommendation level were assessed using the GRADE system.Results A total of 11 RCTs involving 376 patients were included.The results of meta-analysis(including 3 RCTs,low quality) showed that,compared with the routine rehabilitation treatment,2 to 4 weeks of rTMS was much beneficial to stroke patients with motor dysfunction,with significant differences(WMD=11.02,95%CI 2.56 to 19.47).The other 8 studies only adopted descriptive analysis accordingly.Conclusion It is still uncertain of the effectiveness of rTMS in improving motor dysfunction of stroke patients,so rTMS should be applied with caution in clinic.
This paper is aimed to introduce the definition and application of Population Impact Measures (PIMs). The PIMs use Number Need to Treat (NNT) for reference and generalize the variables of clinical research to interest population, which then can be used to measure the effectiveness of interventions and the harmfulness of risk factors, so as to provide evidence for making public health policy. Of the PIMs, the variables used for measuring the effectiveness of interventions include Disease Impact Number (DIN), Population Impact Number (PIN) and Number of Events Prevented in your Population (NEPP); Te variables used for measuring the harmfulness of risk factors include Exposure Impact Number (EIN), Exposed Cases Impact Number (ECIN), Population Impact Number (PIN), Case Impact Number (CIN) and Population Impact Number of Eliminating a Risk factor (PIN-ER-t). © 2012 Editorial Board of Chin J Evid-based Med.
Objective To evaluate Mental Imagery on rehabilitation of functions in patients with stroke.Methods Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials(CENTRAL),MEDLINE,EMbase,PEDro(www.pedro.org.au),OpenSIGLE,National Technical Information Service(NTIS),CNKI,VIP,Wanfang Data,and CBM were searched for the Randomized controlled trials(RCTs) of Mental Imagery on rehabilitation of functions in patients with stroke from the date of establishment of the databases to October 2010.The bibliographies of the included studies were searched,too.Three independent researchers evaluated the included studies using GRADE.The extracted data were analyzed by RevMan 5.0.25 and GRAEDprofiler 3.2.2.Results A total 16 trials were discovered.Meta-analyses showed that at the end of 4th,6th,and 8th,compared with conventional rehabilitation,the mental practice increased the score measured by FMA(WMD=7.81,95%CI 1.96 to 13.65;WMD=13.89,95%CI 4.53 to 23.25;and WMD=9.45,95%CI 3.67 to 15.23,respectively) and ARAT(WMD=5.70,95%CI 3.17 to 8.22,P=0.30).The 4 outcomes were all of low quality in the GRADE system.Conclusion The current evidence shows mental practice could improve the upper limb function in patients after stroke,and the side effects of mental practice are not found in meta-analyses.Compared with other rehabilitative therapies,it is simper,of lower input costs,and of low operating costs.The clinicians should recommend it.Due to the limitations of the included studies,more large-sample,high-quality RCTs are required.
Evidence is the core of Evidence-Based Medcine;the Grades of Recommendations Assessment,Development and Evaluation(GRADE System) is a milestone in the history of evidence development.is paper outlines the GRADE System and GRADEpro 3.2 so ware,and briefly explores the right and wrong application which was published in the Chinese Journal of Evidence-Based Medicine.The GRADEpro 3.2 so ware is easy to operate,but for evaluating the reasons of upgrade and downgrade,and the importance of the parameters of outcomes,it needs to comprehensively and systematically understand the knowledge of relevant background,and to construct a solid foundation in clinical epidemi-ology and systematic review.In view of this paper based on the current GRADE System,there may be some discrepancy to the later content with the GRADE System constant improvement.Therefore,it is strongly recommended that readers should keep constant learning and improving.
Objective To systematically review the efficacy of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS) compared with sham therapy for the treatment of major depressive disorder.Methods The Cochrane Library,Medline,EMbase,CBMdisk,CNKI and VIP were searched through computer from 1985 to 2011.The review included RCTs comparing the treatment efficacy of low-frequency rTMS located on right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex(DLPFC) with sham stimulation in the patients suffering major depressive disorder.The quality of the included RCTs was strictly evaluated and the data were extracted by two reviewers independently.The extracted data were analyzed by RevMan 4.2.Results Among seven double-blinded RCTs involving 234 patients included,1 was A level in quality,5 were B level,and 1 was C level according to the outcomes of quality evaluation.The results of Meta-analysis indicated that low frequency rTMS was superior to sham stimulation in remission rates after two weeks' treatment(RR=3.11,95%CI 1.56 to 6.19).Additionally,low frequency rTMS was lower than the sham stimulation in the scores of HDRS and MADRS(WMD= –6.41,95%CI –9.32 to –3.50,and WMD= –5.27,95%CI –9.08 to –1.46,respectively).But no significant difference in response rates between the low prequency rTMS group and the sham group was found(RR=1.72,95%CI 0.74 to 4.01).There were no severe and intolerable side effects reported in these seven studies.Conclusion The low frequency rTMS as a non-invasive and safe technique may appear to be effective for the treatment of major depressive disorder according to the positive results but the conclusion is not definite because of negative results.This review suggests that parameters could be sited as frequency: 1 Hz,intensity: 90%-110% motor threshold(MT),location: right DLPFC and duration: 2 weeks.Nevertheless,further multicenter and high quality studies are needed before it is used as a first-line treatment for major depressive disorder.
Objective To evaluate the effectivenes of continous passive motion(CPM) on limb function in patients after total knee arthroplasty.MethodsThe Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews,MEDLINE,EMBASE,PEDro,CNKI and VIP were retrieved from the date of establishment of the databases to July,2010 to collect randomized controlled trials(RCTs).The quality of RCTs was critically appraised and data were extracted by 4 reviewers independently.Meta-analysis was conducted for the eligible RCTs.Results26 RCTs were included.The result of Meta-analysis showed that CPM improved the range of motion(ROM) in active knee flexion and passive knee flexion,eliminate swelling in short term(6 weeks) and alleviate pain in short and medium term(less than 6 months).CPM showed no significant difference in improving the ROM in active and passive knee extention and quadriceps strength,and shortening hospital stay.ConclusionThe patients carried out CPM training after total knee arthroplasty can effectively improve limb flexion function,eliminate joint swelling,and relieve pain in the short term.But more high-quality and large-scale RCTs are needed.
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS) for treating dysfunction in patients with Parkinsonˉs disease(PD).Methods We searched the Cochrane Library(Issue 1,2010),MEDLINE,EMbase,CBMdisc,and CNKI from the date of the database establishment to April 2010.Randomized controlled trials(RCTs) of rTMS for patients with PD were collected.The quality of the included RCTs was critically appraised and data were extracted by two reviewers independently.Meta-analyses were conducted for the eligible RCTs.Re-sults Eight RCTs were included.The pooled results of the rst 2 RCTs showed that,there was no signi cant difference compared with control group about treating PD patients with clinical motor dysfunction by high-frequency rTMS 10 days later(WMD= ¨C4.75,95%CI ¨C13.73 to 4.23).The pooled analysis of another 3 studies showed that,no signi cant difference were found about improving symptoms with treatment of low-frequency rTMS for 1 month compared with control group(WDM= ¨C8.51,95%CI ¨C18.48 to 1.46).The pooled analysis of last 3 studies showed that,patient with treatment of low-frequency rTMS for 3 months,had been signi cantly improved in clinical symptoms such as neurological,behavior and emotional state,clinical motor function,and activities of daily living(WDM= ¨C5.79,95%CI ¨C8.44 to ¨C1.13).The frontal or motor cortex rTMS manifested as low frequency(u1Hz),high intensity(Y90% RMT),multi-frequency(Y3 times) and long time(Y3 months) had a positive effect on the clinical symptoms of patients with PD and also had a long-term effect.Conclusions rTMS can improve clinical symptoms and dysfunction of the patients with PD.
