This paper analyzes the functional MRI changes in patients with ischemic stroke after treadmill training with voluntary and passive ankle dorsiflexion. Functional MRI showed that there are some changes in some regions of patients with ischemic stroke including primary sensorimotor cortex, supplementary motor area and cingulate motor area after treadmill training. These findings suggest that treadmill training likely improves ischemic stroke patients' lower limb functions and gait performance and promotes stroke recovery by changing patients' brain plasticity; meanwhile, the novel treadmill training methods can better training effects.展开更多

New Zealand rabbits, aged 14 weeks, underwent tenotomy followed immediately byAchilles tendon microsurgery to repair the Achilles tendon rupture. The tendon was then immobilized or subjected to postoperative early motion treatment (kinesitherapy). Mass spectrography results showed that after 14 days of motion treatment, 18 protein spots were differentially expressed, among which, 12 were up-regulated, consisting of gelsolin isoform b and neurite growth-related protein collapsing response mediator protein 2. Western blot analysis showed that gelsolin isoform b was up-regulated at days 7-21 of motion treatment. These findings suggest that active Achilles tendon kinesitherapy promotes the neurite regeneration of a ruptured Achilles tendon and gelsolin isoform b can be used as a biomarker for Achilles tendon healing after kinesitherapy.展开更多

文摘Aims and objective:A theoretical model based on guided postoperative rehabilitation with feedback was developed for patients with lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion to explore the effects of feedback-based health education.Patients were assessed in terms of disease knowledge,general self-efficacy,medical behaviour,and the Oswestry disability index(ODI).During postoperative rehabilitation,nursing staff provided health education regarding lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion.Design:The CONSORT 2010 statement extension for cluster randomized trials checklist(Campbell et al.,2012)was used to guide reporting outcomes(File S1).Methods:The methods were based on previous research on the feedback method of health education.A cluster randomized controlled trial design was used.From March 2019 to January 2020,patients who underwent spinal surgery at a first-class tertiary hospital were enrolled,and 76 met the inclusion criteria for lumbar disc disease(lumbar disc herniation,LDH).Patients were divided into an experimental group and a control group,with 38 patients in each group.Feedback-based health education was conducted for the experimental group,and routine health education was provided for the control group.Disease knowledge,general self-efficacy,compliance behaviour,and ODI scores were compared between the two groups.The intervention effect was compared between groups by means of t tests.SPSS 23.0 was used for statistical analysis,and P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.The research was reported according to CONSORT statement.Results:1.Comparison of baseline data between the two groups before the intervention.Before the intervention,there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of general demographic data,disease-related data,disease knowledge,general self-efficacy,compliance behaviour,or ODI(P>0.05).2.Comparison of relevant indicators between the two groups of patients before and after the intervention.(1)One,four and 12 weeks after surgery,the disease knowledge,general self-efficacy and postoperative compliance behaviour of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P<0.05).(2)At 1,4 and 12 weeks after surgery,the ODI of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusions:Feedback-based health education is conducive to improving disease knowledge,general self-efficacy and compliance behaviour and reducing ODI scores in patients with LDH.Relevance to clinical practice:This study provides nurses worldwide with a reference for health education during postoperative rehabilitation for lumbar disc herniation.
文摘Purpose The Farmer’s Walk(FW)may supplement resistance training through functional tasks like lifting and carrying weight over various distances.Minimal information exists concerning the intramuscular responses resulting from FW per-formance,possibly impacting its application in exercise prescription.Therefore,the purpose of the study was to investigate Creatine Kinase(CK)and myoglobin(Mb)responses following the Farmers Walk Condition(FWC)compared to a control protocol(NWC).Methods Fifteen participants(Mean±SEM;age:21.6±0.5 years;height:172.5±2.4 cm;body weight:81.8±4.0 kg)completed an initial session to measure body composition,lower body power,and strength.Participants then completed two counter-balanced exercise protocols consisting of a 20-m walk performed within 5 sets of 2 repetitions while either carrying weight(FWC;average wt:85.15±25.55 kg)or not(NWC)with collection of Visually Perceived Muscle Soreness(VPMS),Ratings of Perceived Exertion(RPE),and blood samples.VPMS,blood samples,and Countermovement Jump(CMJ)height were also collected during recovery from each exercise protocol with significance of P<0.05.Results Significant differences were observed between exercise protocols performed including participant RPE(P<0.01),CK(P=0.01),and overall,upper body,and lower body VPMS(P<0.05)post-FWC.No significant differences were noted for Mb or CMJ height.Conclusion Training variables implemented during the FWC may have indirectly minimized muscle damage and neuro-muscular inhibitions in performance.Although participants reported mild soreness,the negligible physiological damage suggests the FWC is a safe and appropriate functional movement exercise.
文摘Objective To observe the efficacy of combining therapy in treatment of 90 patients with scapulohumeral periarthritis in different phases. Method Ninety patients with scapulohumeral periarthritis were treated with Fu's subcutaneous needling(FSN) combined with physiotherapy in painful phase, acupotomology and massage in adhesion phase, and appropriate functional exercise in rehabilitation phase. Seven days were considered as one course of treatment, and efficacy evaluation was performed after three courses. Function evaluation of shoulder joint was made. Result The total effective rate was 100%(38/38) in acute phase, 93.5%(29/31) in adhesion phase, and 100%(21/21) in rehabilitation phase. After treatment, the range of motion(ROM) of shoulder joint, pain, muscle force, activities of daily living(ADL) and joint local morphology of the patient have been improved obviously. Conclusion Better clinical efficacy is achieved in treatment of scapulohumeral periarthritis in different phases by combining therapy centering on FSN.
