RESUMO
Objective: To observe the effects of acupuncture at the Governor Vessel acupoints plus language training on the language function and cerebral blood flow in patients with motor aphasia after ischemic stroke. Methods: Eighty-six patients were randomized into a control group and an observation group, with 43 cases in each group. Conventional symptomatic treatment was offered to both groups. Besides, the control group received language training, while the observation group received language training plus additional acupuncture at the Governor Vessel acupoints. Before and after treatment, the aphasia battery of Chinese (ABC) and Chinese functional communication profile (CFCP) were tested, and the mean velocity (Vm) and resistance index (RI) of the left middle cerebral artery (MCA) were detected. Results: The total effective rate was higher in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the observation group gained higher scores in oral expression, comprehension, repeating, naming objects, reading, and writing, as well as the general score of ABC (all P<0.05), higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The CFCP score increased in both groups after intervention, showing significant intra-group differences (both P<0.05), and the CFCP score was higher in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, Vm of the left side MCA increased in the control group (P<0.05), while no significant change was observed in RI (P>0.05); in the observation group, Vm of the left side MCA increased and RI decreased significantly compared with the baseline (both P<0.05), and were markedly different from those in the control group (both P<0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture at the Governor Vessel acupoints plus language training can produce valid efficacy in treating motor aphasia after ischemic stroke; it can notably improve the language function, everyday oral communication ability, and increase cerebral perfusion of the patients.

RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the aesthetic effect of Millard' s method in patients with unilateral cleft lip by three dimensional sensing system.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>19 patients with unilateral cleft lip (class II: 7 cases, class III: 12 cases) were randomly selected. The pre- and postoperative 3-D facial profiles were recorded using a 3 DSS scanner. Then 3D geometric models were established by Geomagic Studio 10.0. In the software, columella length, nostril floor width, alar base-subnasale distance, alar length, upper lip height, lateral upper lip height and lip length were measured before and after lip repair respectively. Paired-samples T test and one-sample T test were used for statistical analysis with SPSS 12. 0 software package.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There were significant differences in the nostril floor width, alar base-subnasale distance, alar length and lip length before and after operation (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). The ratio of asymmetry in normal people was no more than 0.1. There was significant difference in the asymmetry ratio of columella length and lateral upper lip height between postoperative class II patients and normal people (P < 0.05). There was significant difference in the asymmetry ratio of columella length, nostril floor width, alar base-suhnasale distance, lateral upper lip height and lip length between postoperative class III patients and normal people (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Millard's technique is useful for repairing unilateral cleft lip in rebuilding nasal floor, the Cupid' bow and in correction of the columella deviation, except for a relatively insufficient lip height and columella length at the operated side. Besides, the nostril floor width at the operated side in class III patients is still wider than that at the opposite side.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the feasibility of constructing tissue engineered trachea-like cartilage graft in vitro by using bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) sheet and PLGA internal support.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Rabbit BMSCs were expanded and induced by transforming growth factor-1 to improve chondrocyte phenotype of BMSCs. BMSCs sheets were obtained by continuous culture and wrapped the PGLA scaffold in the shape of cylinder. The constructs were incubated in spinner flask for 8 weeks and cartilage formation was investigated by gross inspection, histology, glycosaminoglycan and mechanical strength content.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>After in vitro culture, cartilage like tissue in cylindrical shape had been regenerated successfully. Stiff, shiny, pearly opalescence tissues were observed. Histological analysis showed engineered trachea cartilage consisted of evenly spaced lacunae embedded in matrix, cells stationed in the lacunae could be noticed clearly. Safranin-O staining on the sections showed homogenous and positive red staining, which demonstrated that the engineered tissue was rich in proteoglycans.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Based on the cell sheet and internal support strategy, trachea-like cartilage in cylindrical shape could be successfully fabricated which provided a highly effective cartilage graft substitute and could be useful in many situations of trachea-cartilage loss encountered in clinical practice.</p>
