Objective To explore the effects of sole desensitization physical therapy on standing balance and walking function among recovering stroke patients.MethodsStroke patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to the observation group (40 cases) or the control group (40 cases). All patients received traditional rehabilitation. In addition, the observation group received sole densensitization physical therapy. The total course of treatment lasted for 1 month. The Berg balance scale (BBS) and Holden's functional ambulation classification (FAC) were used to evaluate balance and walking ability before and after treatment. The Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA) was used to assess the motor function of the affected ankle, and footprint analysis was used to measure and record any changes in time and distance walked and to analyze improvements in gait.ResultsAfter the sole desensitization training, the BBS (37.41 ± 8.14), FAC ( 3.91 ±0.92) and FMA motor function (6.42 ± 1.12) results of the observation group were all significantly better than before training. Walking time and distance also improved.ConclusionsSole desensitization can affect foot proprioception. As a result, stroke patients' soles adapt to the surroundings, recover their ability to provide physiological support and promote improved motor function of the ankle.Sole desensitization can thus improve the standing balance and walking of stroke patients.

Lower back pain refers to the pain in the lower back. It usually refers to the region below the lower costal margin on the back. The pain mostly occurs on L4 and L5, or L5 and L1, which is usually called as lower back pain. For the treatment of low back pain, it has lacked the effective and objective measurement methods based on the functional and structural features of spinal muscles. This article discussed on the core stability and core strength, the identification and classification of core muscle group, the relation between core stabilizing muscle group and low back pain. It also discussed the characteristics and effects of training motion therapy in the improving of core strength. The core of human body was consisted of waist, pelvis and hip joint. Core stabilizing training can effectively stabilize the spine and transmit power. The question of how to train and improve the core strength to relieve low back pain and make effective evaluation according to its therapeutic results are the key points in the future study.

AIM: Using simvastatin and vitamine E (Vit-E) treatment to coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with low HDL, to investigate the relationship between Ox-LDL, platelet activation and HDL. METHODS: 40 CAD patients with low HDL were divided into two groups (A and B): A group oral simvastatin, B group oral simvastatin and Vit-E. The level of serum Ox-LDL, TXB 2 and GMP-140 were measured before and after treatment. The relationship between Ox-LDL, TXB 2, GMP-140 and HDL were analysed. RESULTS:The level of serum HDL was significantly increased in A and B group after treatment and attained normal level. The level of serum Ox-LDL, TXB 2 and GMP-140 were decreased significantly after simvastatin and Vit-E treatment and neared normal. CONCLUSIONS:This study confirmed that HDL can effectively refrain LDL oxidation. It also revealed that Vit-E and simvastatin treatment were more effectively refrained platelet activation by increasement of HDL and decreasement of Ox-LDL.

Objective To report the treatment of type A3 distal tibiofibular fractures with the fibular posterolateral approach and minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO).Methods We reviewed 61 patients with type A3 distal tibiofibular fracture (observation group) who had been treated with MIPPO and the fibular posterolateral approach from June 2011 to May 2015.Our control group included 78 patients with type A3 distal tibiofibular fracture who had been treated by traditional open reduction and internal fixation from April 2009 to September 2013.Interval between injury and surgery,surgical time,intraoperative bleeding,hospital stay,postoperative complications,X-ray Lane-Sandhu osteotylus score and limb weight-bearing score one year after operation were compared between the 2 groups.Results All the 139 patients were followed up for more than one year.There were significant differences between the 2 groups in terms of interval between injury and surgery (8.0 ± 3.5 h versus 140.7 ± 52.4 h),surgical time (66.2 ± 7.2 min versus 92.1 ±6.6 min),intraoperative bleeding (59.8 ± 12.8 mL versus 209.5 ±50.4 mL),hospital stay (9.4 ± 1.9 d versus 26.1 ± 15.7 d),postoperative complications,X-ray Lane-Sandhu osteotylus score (3.9 ±0.2 points versus 3.0 ±0.6 points) and limb weight-bearing score (3.9 ±0.1 points versus 3.0 ±0.7 points) one year after operation,favoring the observation group(P < 0.001).Conclusions In the treatment of type A3 tibiofibular fractures,MIPPO plus the fibular posterolateral approach is superior to the traditional open reduction and internal fixation because it can benefit fracture healing by shortening the time for preoperative preparation,surgery and hospitalization,and decreasing the amount of intraoperative bleeding and the incidence of postoperative complications.

Objective:
To investigate the impact of temperature changes between neighboring days (TCN) on the mortality risk of respiratory diseases, so as to provide the evidence for the study of deaths from respiratory diseases caused by climate change.
Methods:
The monitoring data of deaths from respiratory diseases in Zibo City from 2015 to 2019 were collected from Shandong Provincial Management Information System for Chronic Diseases and Cause of Death Surveillance. The meteorological and air pollutant data of the same period were collected from China Meteorological Data Website and ChinaHighAirPollutants dataset. The effect of TCN on the risk of deaths from respiratory diseases was examined using a generalized additive model combined with a distributed lag non-linear model, and subgroup analyses for gender and age were conducted. The disease burden attributed to TCN at different intervals was assessed by calculating attributable fraction.
Results:
Totally 11 767 deaths from respiratory diseases were reported in Zibo City from 2015 to 2019, including 6 648 males (56.50%) and 5 119 females (43.50%). There were 1 307 deaths aged <65 years (11.11%), and 10 460 deaths aged 65 years and older (88.89%). A monotonically increasing exposure-response relationship was observed between TCN and deaths from respiratory diseases in the general population, females, and the population aged 65 years and older. The 95th percentile of TCN (P95, 3.84 ℃) reached the peak at a cumulative lagged of day 11 (RR=2.063, 95%CI: 1.261-3.376). The results of subgroup analyses showed greater impacts on females and the population aged 65 years and older, with cumulative lagged effects peaking at day 12 (RR=3.119, 95%CI: 1.476-6.589) and day 11 (RR=2.107, 95%CI: 1.260-3.523). The results of attributional risk analysis showed that next-day warming might increase the attributable risk of deaths from respiratory diseases, and next-day cooling might decrease the attributable risk.
Conclusion
Next-day warming may increase the mortality risk of respiratory diseases, and has greater impacts on females and the population aged 65 years and older.
