The sympathetic skin response in patients was measured with an electromyo-graphy/evoked potential instrument 1 day before transplantation and 3-8 weeks after trans-tion. Spinal nerve function of patients was assessed using the American Spinal Injury Association impairment scale. The sympathetic skin response was elicited in 32 cases before olfactory en-sheathing celltransplantation, while it was observed in 34 cases after transplantation. tantly, sympathetic skin response latency decreased significantly and amplitude increased cantly after transplantation. Transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells also improved American Spinal Injury Association scores for movement, pain and light touch. Our findings indicate that factory ensheathing celltransplantation improves motor, sensory and autonomic nerve functions in patients with chronic spinal cord injury.展开更多

Methods Free skin flap with skin vein was transplanted on the site of tissue defect, connecting by anastomosis the vein with artery or vein of the finger. Results Seven cases were treated with this method,among which 5 cases have sikin defect on the palm aspect of fingers, the rest have skin defect on the dorsal aspect skin of finger. All fingers survived with good shape and function. Conclusion This is a simple and effective method of finger reconstruction for the patients with defect of vessels and skin. 6 refs.展开更多
