Objective Using Mental Practice as a training method to train students grasping skills of minimally invasive surgery(MIS),and analyze the change of mental practice in training grasping skills of MIS.Methods 36 students were randomly divided into mental practice training group (MPTG) ( n =12 ),conventional training group (CTG) ( n=12),control group (CG) ( n=11 ).Under the uniform appraisal standards and conditions,using different training methods to teach the grasping skills of MIS,and analyze the results statistically.Results MPTG' s pre-training test results ( 16.18 ± 5.73 ) and post-training test results (79.47 ± 22.05 ) were significantly different(P ＜ 0.001 ),post-training and two weeks later test results ( 89.32 ± 31.56) displayed no significant difference(P=0.283) ; CTG' s pre-training test results ( 17.47 ±8.33) and post-training test results (57.18± 21.83 ) were significantly different (P ＜ 0.001 ),post-training and two weeks later test results (42.27 ± 24.64)had significant difference(P=0.048) ; CG's pre-training test results ( 18.19 ± 4.74) and post-training test results (38.04 ± 19.13 ) were significantly different(P =0.003 ),post-training and two weeks later test results (23.71 ±15.71 ) had significant difference (P=0.034).Compared with MPTG in pre-training test,CTG (P=0.632) and CG (P =0.464) neither had significant difference,but in the post-training test,CTG (P =0.014) and CG (P ＜0.001 ) both had significant difference compared with MPTG.In the two weeks later test,CTG and CG both (P＜0.001 ) had significant difference compared with MPTG.Conclusion Mental practice training method can improve the pedormance of gasping skills of MIS significantly and better durability,improve the learning curve,easy to implement in teaching,easy to master students,it will be a new method of MIS skills training in the future.

Diabetic foot ulcer is a major complication of diabetes which is the most expensive and the most difficult to deal with and leads to a high rate of non-traumatic amputation.Diabetic foot osteomyelitis results from aggravation of diabetic foot ulcer.Unfortunately,the current therapeutic outcomes of diabetic foot osteomyelitis are still unsatisfactory because of its difficult diagnosis and special treatment protocols which are entirely different from those for conventional soft tissue infections.This paper summarizes the latest advances achieved in diagnosis and treatment of diabetic foot osteomyelitis.

Objective:To compare the clinical effects on new bone formation and foot-ankle function between proximal tibial bone transport and distal tibial bone transport in the treatment of massive bone defects after tibial osteomyelitis debridement.Methods:From July 2012 to July 2017, 42 patients with chronic tibial osteomyelitis received bone transport surgery at Department of Orthopaedics, Nanfang Hospital.According to the Cierny-Mader classification for chronic osteomyelitis, all of them belonged to diffusive tibial osteomyelitis (type IV).Of them, 32 were treated by proximal tibial bone transport after tibial osteomyelitis debridement.In the proximal group, there were 27 males and 5 females, aged from 17 to 65 years and involving 20 left and 12 right sides. The other 10 cases received distal tibial bone transport. In the distal group, all of them were male, aged from 25 to 63 years and involving 6 left and 4 right sides. The 2 groups were compared in terms of external fixation index (EFI) and American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society(AOFAS) Ankle and Hindfoot Scale.Results:There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in the preoperative general data such as gender, age or osteomyelitis site, indicating the 2 groups were comparable ( P>0.05). Both groups obtained complete follow-up. The proximal group was followed up for 590.1 d ± 287.3 d and the distal group for 615.6 d ± 130.6 d, showing no significant difference between groups ( P>0.05). In the proximal group 2 cases developed talipes equinovalgus after bone transport while in the distal group 3 cases did, and surgical intervention was needed for them. Surgical intervention was also carried out for16 cases of non-union at the docking site in the proximal group and for 2 ones in the distal group. The EFI was 76.2 d/cm±50.0 d/cm for the proximal group and 84.3 d/cm ± 59.9 d/cm for the distal group, showing no significant difference between groups ( P>0.05). The AOFAS scores were 81.4±10.1 for the proximal group and 60.0±5.9 for the distal group, showing a significant difference ( P<0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of massive bone defects after tibial osteomyelitis debridement, no significant difference has been observed in the effect on bone formation between proximal tibial bone transport and distal tibial bone transport, but the former transport may have a less adverse effect on foot-ankle function.

Objective:To explore the relationship between anxiety, depression and various dimensions of cognitive function in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) .Methods:The convenient sampling method was adopted to conduct memory screening for 727 elderly people who visited the multidisciplinary joint memory clinic of a Class Ⅲ Grade A hospital in Beijing from January to December 2019. With their consent, 247 MCI patients were investigated using Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) , Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7) and Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) .Results:A total of 247 questionnaires were distributed and 233 valid questionnaires were returned. There were 67 cases (28.8%) of MCI patients with anxiety and depression, 11 cases (4.7%) with anxiety, 53 cases (22.7%) with depression and 102 cases (43.8%) without anxiety and depression. In MCI patients, anxiety was positively correlated with delayed recall ( P<0.05) , while depression was negatively correlated with language function ( P<0.05) . MCI patients with different emotional states had statistically significant differences in language function ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:MCI patients have a higher incidence of anxiety and depression, and anxiety and depression will affect different dimensions of cognitive function in MCI patients. Medical staff need to provide targeted interventions for MCI patients with different emotional characteristics.
