Objective To discuss how to use the core elements of international classification of functioning,disability and health(ICF) as a guide in stroke operation treatment to develop targeted,effective therapy plan and rehabilitation goals,establish individualized treatment of rehabilitation,and to observe the effect of limb movement function in stroke patients. Methods Sixty cases patients with stroke and aged from 40 to 65 years old were selected. The body function and structure of all stroke patients were marked by comprehensive evaluation scores of The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale ( NIHSS ) and Fugl?Meyer assessment. And then they were randomly divided into two groups,30 cases in each group. The observation group used the Chinese version of brief ICF Core Sets for evaluation, and set individualized treatment according to the results of the assessment;The control group, according to the conventional rehabilitation process, involved in training routine physical therapy. Again 8 weeks after treatment for patients with evaluation,the assessment results was compared with the results of the first assessment. Results Before treatment, the NIHSS, Fugl?Meyer assessment and Chinese version of brief ICF core elements scale scores for the observation group were 7. 95±2. 37,34. 5±4. 0 and 82. 15±17. 96,for the control group were 7. 58±2. 25,34. 8±4. 0 and 81. 55±18. 78. After treatment,the above three rating scale scores, for the observation group were improved to 4. 78 ± 1. 63, 56. 3 ± 4. 2, 60. 45 ±11. 04,for the control group were improved to 5. 13±1. 75,48. 1±3. 8,73. 56±16. 89. The two groups were significantly improved ( observation group:t=4. 94, 15. 51, 18. 59, P<0. 05;control group:t=3. 17, 14. 66, 12. 33,P<0. 05). After treatment,compared with the control group of three rating scale scores(5. 13±1. 75,48. 1
±3. 8 and 73. 56±16. 89),the observation group(4. 78±1. 63,56. 3±4. 2 and 60. 45±11. 04) improved more apparently(t=3. 15,14. 54,15. 45,P<0. 05) . Conclusion Guided by the idea of ICF and scale,with the demand of the patients as the center,to develop personalized physical therapy,can achieve more productive and more targeted rehabilitation goals.

Objective Few researches have been reported on the gene methylation in children with steroid-sensitive nephrot-ic syndrome (SSNS) or steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome (SDNS).This study aimed to investigate the possible pathogenesis and therapeutic target of SSNS and SDNS by screening differentially methylated genes ( DMGs) and bioinformatic analysis using DNA meth-ylation microarray. Methods This study included 3 hospitalized children with SSNS and another 4 with SDNS, all treated with full dose of prednisone ( 2 mg per kilogram of the body weight per day or 60 mg per m2 per day).Negative urine protein was achieved within 4 weeks in the former group , while the latter , though sensitive to hor-monal therapy , relapsed within 2 weeks after drug withdrawal or dose reduction .DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of the patients in both groups for screening DMGs and bioinformatic analysis using DNA methylation microarray . Results Compared with the patients with SSNS, 318 DMGs were found in the SDNS group , among which 193 were hypermethylated and the other 125 hypomethylated .These abnormal genes were mainly located in the open reading frame of DNA and the CpG island region .DMGs were mainly involved in Rho guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity , nucleoside-triphosphatase regulator activity , GTPase activator activity , and other molecular functions .The biological processes were chiefly associ-ated with the regulation of the generation of precursor metabolites and energy , antigen processing and presentation , regulation of Rho and Ras protein signal transduction , lamellipodium assembly , regeneration , and other biological processes .The cell composition was mainly related to MHC protein complexes , perichromatin fibrils , and the MHC class I protein complex .Analysis of the KEGG signaling pathway showed that DMGs participated in 9 signaling pathways , involving type I diabetes , starch and sucrose metabolism , allograft re-jection, autoimmune thyroid disease , and others. Conclusion The heterogeneity of methylation is widespread in children with SDNS and may be one of the causes of steroid dependence , which has provided a basis for searching for potential therapeutic targets .

9.Yun shou tai chi with visual feedback can improve the balance of stroke survivors
Chinese Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2023;45(7):614-619
Objective:To observe any effect of Yun shou tai chi training with visual feedback on the balance of persons who have survived a stroke.Methods:Fifty-six stroke survivors were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, each of 28. Both groups were given routine balance function training, while the observation group was additionally given Yun shou tai chi training with visual feedback. Before and after the four weeks of training, the subjects′ balance and posture were evaluated using a Nomex visual feedback balance system. Lower limb strength was evaluated with a microFET2 portable muscle strength tester. The Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Timed Up and Go Test (TUGT), 10-metre walk times (10MWTs) and the modified Barthel Index (MBI) were also applied.Results:After the training the average BBS, TUGT, 10MWT and MBI results of the observation group had improved significantly. Among the control group only TUGT times and MBI scores had improved significantly, but even then the average MBI score of the observation group was significantly higher. The training improved the strength of the trainees′ quadriceps femoris (QUA), tibialis anterior (TA) and gastrocnemius (GAS) on the hemiplegic side. Their hamstrings and GAS on the non-hemiplegic side were also significantly stronger, on average. The improvement in the QUA of the hemiplegic side in the observation group was significantly better than the control group′s average improvement. The path length (PL) and the covered area (CA) in the observation group had decreased significantly after the training, while among the controls only the CA had decreased significantly. The average PL in the observation group was therefore significantly shorter than in the control group.Conclusion:Yun shou tai chi training with visual feedback can promote the recovery of balance function after a stroke. Such training is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Objective:To investigate the current application of colonoscopy at hospitals in China.Methods:From November 2019 to January 2020, an online questionnaire survey was conducted among gastroenterologists and colonoscopists in hospitals of different levels. The contents of questionnaire survey included basic information of colonoscopy at the respondent′s hospital, protocols and patient education of bowel preparation, implementation of colonoscopy quality control, and colonoscopists′ understanding of polypectomy techniques and post-polypectomy follow-up.Results:A total of 236 valid questionnaires were collected, involving 187 hospitals, and 143 (76.5%) had an annual operation capacity of more than 5 000 cases. In terms of bowel preparation, split-dosed polyethylene glycol electrolyte powder (PEG) was the most commonly used (60.4%, 113/187) and the most common volume of PEG was 3 L (67.4%, 126/187). Verbal (90.9%, 170/187) and written (79.7%, 149/187) instructions were given more often than other methods for patient education of bowel preparation. Antifoaming agent was routinely used in 124 (66.3%) hospitals. In terms of quality control, only 11.5% (20/174) hospitals implemented all four measures. In terms of polypectomy techniques, 98.1% (203/207) colonoscopists chose hot snare polypectomy or endoscopic mucosal resection for lesions of diameter>1 cm, while options varied for lesions of diameter<1 cm. The interval of follow-up after polypectomy recommended by colonoscopists was shorter than that by guidelines.Conclusion:Several problems are found in the survey in the application of colonoscopy in China, i. e., patient education of bowel preparation is not diversified; quality control of colonoscopy still needs to be strengthened; polypectomy techniques and follow-up after polypectomy need to be further standardized.
