OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of moxibustion at Yongquan（KI 1） on the cognitive function and lower limb motor function in patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment of kidney essence deficiency. METHODS: Eighty-four patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment of kidney essence deficiency were randomly divided into an observation group（42 cases，1 case dropped off）and a control group（42 cases，1 case dropped off）.The control group was treated with medication，electroacupuncture，rehabilitation training and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation（rTMS）；on the basis of the treatment as the control group，moxibustion at bilateral Yongquan（KI 1）was adopted in the observation group.Both groups were treated once a day，5 days a week with 2-day interval，4 weeks were required. The Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) score, mini-mental state examination (MMSE) score, Fugl-Meyer assessment-lower extremity (FMA-LE) score, Berg balance scale (BBS) score, functional independence measure (FIM) score, modified fall efficacy scale (MFES) score and scale for the differentiation of syndromes of vascular dementia (SDSVD) score before and after treatment were observed in the two groups. RESULTS: After treatment，the MoCA, MMSE, FMA-LE, BBS, FIM and MFES scores were higher than those before treatment in both groups (P<0.05), and the scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment，the SDSVD scores were lower than those before treatment in both groups (P< 0.05), and the SDSVD score in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (P< 0.05). CONCLUSION Moxibustion at Yongquan（KI 1） can improve the cognitive function and motor and balance function of lower limbs in patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment of kidney essence deficiency，reduce the risk of fall and improve the quality of life.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of Kegel exercise combined with biofeedback electrical stimulation in the treatment of postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction(PFD).Methods A total of 100 postpartum PFD patients diagnosed and treated in Shaoxing Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from January 2022 to May 2023 were selected and divided into KEG group and combination group according to random number table method,with 50 cases in each group.Patients in KEG group were given Kegel exercise,and patients in combination group were treated with Kegel exercise combined with biofeedback electrical stimulation.The clinical efficacy,pelvic floor electrophysiological indexes,bladder neck mobility,urethral rotation angle and sexual function were compared between two groups.Results The total effective rate of combination group was significantly higher than that of KEG group(x2=4.891,P=0.026).After treatment,the anterior resting average electromyogram value(aEMG),posterior resting aEMG,slow muscle aEMG and fast muscle maximum electromyogram value(mEMG)of pelvic floor muscles and sexual satisfaction scores in two groups were significantly higher than before treatment,bladder neck mobility and urethral rotation angle in combination group were significantly lower than before treatment,the duration of vaginal contraction in combination group was significantly longer than before treatment,and the pain score of coitus in combination group was significantly lower than before treatment(P＜0.05).The anterior resting aEMG,posterior resting aEMG,slow muscle aEMG and fast muscle mEMG of pelvic floor muscles and sexual satisfaction scores in combination group were significantly higher than those in KEG group,bladder neck mobility and urethral rotation angle were significantly lower than those in KEG group,the duration of vaginal contraction was significantly longer than that in KEG group,and the pain score of coitus was significantly lower than that in KEG group(P＜0.05).No complications occurred in both groups after treatment.Conclusion Kegel exercise combined with biofeedback electrical stimulation can significantly improve pelvic floor muscle function,sexual function and urinary function in patients with postpartum PFD with good safety,and its efficacy is better than Kegel exercise.

Objective:To retrieve, evaluate, and summarize the best evidence for peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) related thrombosis in children.Methods:Guideline websites, relevant society websites, and databases at China and abroad were searched for guidelines, evidence summaries, expert consensuses, and systematic reviews related to thrombosis before and after PICC catheterization in children published up to June 30, 2021 based on evidence-based nursing. The quality of the literature was independently evaluated by 2 researchers with reference to Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation InstrumentⅡ and the criteria of the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) in Australia (2016) . Data were extracted from the literatures that met the standards through expert demonstration, and the evidence was graded and recommended according to the JBI evidence pre-grading system (2014 edition) .Results:A total of 11 articles were included, including 4 guidelines, 1 systematic review, 1 expert consensus, and 5 evidence summaries. 27 pieces of evidence were summarized from 7 aspects: organizational management, catheter selection, blood vessel selection and puncture, location of catheter tip, physical prevention, drug prevention, and evaluation.Conclusions:This paper summarizes and analyzes the best evidence for PICC-related thrombosis in children and provides an evidence-based reference for the clinical application and practice of PICC-related thrombosis in children.
