Baoxing airborne medical team of West China Hospital participated in the medical rescue in 2013 “4?20”Lushan earthquake. The medical team excellently fulfilled their rescue task for 1 week in the earthquake-struck areas where there was power and communication failure and lack of water and food supply. We found some experiences and problems in airbornemedical team assembly and member selection, which may provide quotable experiences for future disaster assistance and rescue teams.
This research was aimed to study the effect of Emodin gel on the hypertrophic scars of rabbit ears. A total of 18 rabbits were randomly divided into Emodin group (9 rabbits) and control group (9 rabbits) after the successful animal model for hypertrophic scars had been made. The rabbits in the Emodin group were treated with Emodin Gel,while no special treatment was given to those in the control group. The other living conditions were all kept the same in the two groups. The diameter,hardness, and expression of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and interleukin-1 (IL-1) of hypertrophic scars were measured after 4 weeks. Transmission electron microscopy was applied to observe the ultra-structure of the fibroblasts of hypertrophic scars. But there was no difference between the two groups in the diameter of hypertrophic scars (P>0.05). The hardness, expression of TGF-β and IL-1 in hypertrophic scars in the Emodin group decreased, compared to the control group (P<0.05, P<0.01, P<0.05). Transmission electron microscopy showed that the fibroblast and organelle lessened in the cytoplasm and the collagen fibers dissolved obviously. The study showed that Emodin gel decreased the hardness of hypertrophic scars in the rabbit ears, and inhibited the proliferation of fibroblasts in local area. Therefore, Emodin gel treatment would be one of the methods to prevent and treat hypertrophic scars.
Stroke is a kind of cerebrovascular disease with high incidence and disability rate. Motor dysfunction and cognitive dysfunction are common dysfunctions of stroke. Rehabilitation treatment can effectively reduce the disability rate of stroke and improve the quality of life. The short-term hospitalization and ambulatory rehabilitation treatment cannot meet the rehabilitation needs of stroke patients. Cloud rehabilitation is one of the ways to solve this problem. This article introduces the definition and application of cloud rehabilitation and artificial intelligence (including assisted rehabilitation assessment and assisted rehabilitation treatment), and summarizes the current problems in the development of stroke cloud rehabilitation in China, so as to promote the construction of remote rehabilitation based on artificial intelligence in China and provide some references for the selection of rehabilitation programs for patients with stroke.
