The treatment of depressive symptoms in patients affected by schizophrenia is often a concern for clinicians [2] due to potential interaction, in terms of safety and efficacy. Citalopram seems to be a safe SSRI as adjunctive treatment to Olanzapine because of the lack of interactions. We report a serendipitous finding showing that the adjunction of Citalopram to Olanzapine, led to disappearence of residual hallucinations and depersonalization symptoms in a few weeks.Mr A is a 27-year-old male, living in the community, with a 4-year history of schizophrenia,. He was treated with low doses of Olanzapine (10 mg/daily) since 2000 because of an intolerance to dose increments (weight gain and mydriasis).The persistence of sporadic hallucinations (commenting voices) and depersonalization symptoms (when he walked alone he felt his self leaving the body) was well tolerated by the patient. The social functioning was satisfactory: he had a protected job and was involved in a comprehensive rehabilitation programme.

This case report assesses the role acupuncture played in the rehabilitation therapy of an African penguin with bilateral hind limb paresis and paralysis following egg binding and a caesarean section. Egg binding is the failure of the oviduct to pass the egg down into the cloaca. In avian species the sciatic nerve runs through the middle of the kidney. Swelling of the kidney tissue due to the pressure exerted by the retained egg will cause pressure on the sciatic nerve which may lead to hind limb paresis/paralysis. Acupuncture was used to relieve any muscle, joint or nerve pain and to attempt to stimulate recovery of the sciatic nerve. Acupuncture was incorporated into a fairly intensive physical rehabilitation programme to help the penguin to walk again so that it could be re-introduced back into the sanctuary's captive colony.

Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute demyelinating poliradioculopathy and autoimmune condition, with a fast rapid natural course, and with high disability and usually episodic immune treatment. Clinical features include areflexia, limb weakness and uncommonly, sensory loss proceeding to neuromuscular paralysis involving bulbar, facial and respiratory function with maximum severity of symptoms atin 2-4 weeks. The eEtiology of GBS is not incompletely understood, however, prognosis is usually good with early detection and prompt treatment. In thise paper, we present a unique case of comprehensive rehabilitation treatment for a pregnant woman with GBS atin the 8th week of pregnancy. On the basis of this case report, we discuss possible and safe rehabilitation treatment for women in the first trimester of pregnancy, with significantly weakened muscle strength, after stabilizsation of vital signs and immunotherapy. The paper describes comprehensive care provided to the pregnant woman with teraplegia, hyperstesia and dysphagia after stabiliszation of vital signs, which was conducted until delivery atin the 39th week of pregnancy.

Objective: To analyse the clinical effect of comprehensive rehabilitation therapy in patients with deep burns at different functional joint areas. Methods: Eighty-one patients with deep burns with different functional joint areas from April 2018 to April 2019 were divided into the conventional and rehabilitation groupings. The conventional group (n=40) received routine treatment and rehabilitation while the rehabilitation group (n=41) was given comprehensive rehabilitation treatment. Thereafter, the recovery of joint function in patients with deep burns in different areas, the combined value of clinical long-term treatment, the recovery of joint function and the score of daily living ability were calculated. Results: The total long-term effective rate of treatment, the recovery of the joint function, and the score of daily living ability of the patients with deep burns in the rehabilitation group were more favourable than those of the conventional group as demonstrated by P<0.05, the index data indicating statistical significance. Conclusion: Comprehensive rehabilitation therapy can reduce complications and improve the quality of life in patients with deep burns in different functional joint areas.
