Stroke is a common and frequently-occurring disease, which seriously endangers human health. Rehabilitation treatment can effectively reduce the disability rate of stroke and improve the quality of life. The tertiary rehabilitation treatment system for stroke can effectively improve the motor function of stroke patients and improve the quality of life. This paper focuses on the choices and methods of physical therapy and occupational therapy at all levels of the hospitals and in different periods of the disease. It also aims to summarize the tertiary rehabilitation strategy for motor dysfunction in stroke patients, to provide references for all levels of hospitals and communities, achieve standardization and unification of rehabilitation treatment, as well as the rehabilitation efficacy of homogeneity.
Objective Peri pheral nerve injury is a common cl inical disease, to study the effects of the physical therapy on the regeneration of the injured sciatic nerve, and provide a reference for cl inical treatment. Methods Sixty-four female adult Wistar rats (weighing 252-365 g) were chosen and randomly divided into 4 groups (n=16): group A, group B, groupC, and group D. The experimental model of sciatic nerve defect was establ ished by crushing the right sciatic nerve in groups B, C, and D; group A served as the control group without crushing. At 2 days after injury, no treatment was given in group B, electrical stimulation in group C, and combined physical therapies (decimeter and infrared ray) in group D. At 0, 7, 14, and 30 days after treatment, the sciatic nerve function index (SFI) and the motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) were measured, and morphological and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) examinations were done; at 30 days after treatment, the morphological evaluation analysis of axons was performed. Results At 0 and 7 days after treatment, the SFI values of groups B, C, and D were significantly higher than that of group A (P lt; 0.05); at 14 and 30 days after treatment, the SFI value of group D decreased significantly, no significant difference was observed between group D and group A (P gt; 0.05) at 30 days; whereas the SFI values of groups B and C decreased, showing significant difference when compared with the value of group A (P lt; 0.05). At 0, 7, and 14 days after treatment, the MNCV values of groups B, C, and D were significantly lower than that of group A (P lt; 0.05), and there were significantly differences between group B and groups C, D (P lt; 0.05); at 14 days, the MNCV value of group D was significantly higher than that of group C (P lt; 0.05); and at 30 days, the MNCV values of groups B and C were significantly lower than that of group A (P lt; 0.05), but there was no significant difference between group D and group A (P gt; 0.05). At 0 and 7 days, only collagen and l i pid were observed by TEM; at 14 and 30 days, many Schwann cells and perineurial cells in regeneration axon were observed in groups B, C, and D, especially in group D. Automated image analysis of axons showed that there was no significant difference in the number of myelinated nerve fibers, axon diameter, and myelin sheath thickness between group D and group A (P gt; 0.05), and the number of myelinated nerve fibers and axon diameter of group D were significantly higher than those of groups B and C (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion Physical therapy can improve the regeneration of the injured sciatic nerve of rats.
目的:探讨物理治疗在新生儿经会阴肛门形成术中的治疗效果,提高护理质量。方法:将103例新生儿肛门直肠畸形患儿,随机分为实验组和对照组,对照组实施常规护理治疗。实验组在常规护理治疗基础上,实施物理治疗。结果:物理治疗实验组患儿肛周的局部红肿情况明显低于对照组(P<0.05),实验组患儿的平均住院日较对照组明显缩短(P<0.05)。结论:物理治疗能降低新生儿经会阴肛门成形术术后并发症的发生率,缩短住院天数,降低医疗费用,提高护理质量。
Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a common ocular surface disease, and the pathogenesis of MGD is closely related to the alteration of meibomian gland morphology and (or) function. At present, the treatment strategy for MGD consists of physical therapy, artificial lubricants, topical and systemic antibiotics and anti-inflammatory agents, topical steroids and Ω-3 dietary supplementation. Recently, the thermal pulsation system (LipiFlow) has been used clinically, which allows heat to be applied to the palpebral surfaces of the upper and lower eyelids directly over the meibomian glands, while simultaneously applying pulsatile pressure to the outer eyelid surfaces. Due to its specific design, the cornea and eyeball can successfully avoid the potential damage from overheating and improper expression, which will greatly improve the safety during the clinical application and patients’ compliance. Studies have showed that the effectiveness of LipiFlow when treating MGD is at least as well as twice-daily lid warming and massage for 3 months, which displays a broad application prospect. At present, the application of LipiFlow in China has not been fully developed, and only some hospitals have experimental applications. This paper summarizes the research progress of LipiFlow treatment in MGD.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the effect of Schroth therapy on adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. MethodsThe PubMed, EBSCO, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI and WanFang Data databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) related to the objectives from inception to November 2024. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsA total of 14 RCTs involving 589 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that Schroth therapy significantly reduced patients' Cobb angle (MD=−3.21, 95%CI −3.87 to −2.55, P<0.01) and angle of trunk rotation (ATR) (MD=−2.39, 95%CI −3.07 to −1.71, P<0.01), and improved SRS-22 quality of life score (MD=0.16, 95%CI 0.01 to 0.30, P=0.04) compared with the control group. Subgroup analysis results showed that Schroth therapy had a better effect on improving the quality of life in moderate patients. Schroth therapy for 1.5-3 months, 5-7 times therapy a week, and a single 30 minute and 40-60 minutes therapy showed better improvement in patients' quality of life. Conclusion Current evidence shows that Schroth therapy can effectively improve Cobb angle, ATR, and quality of life in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis. The improvement effect on quality of life is influenced by the intervention period, frequency, and duration of each intervention.
