Objective To explore the effects of tilted seat surface on front protraction of upper limb and postural adjustment while sitting in children with spastic cerebral palsy. Methods From 2010 to 2014, 15 children with spastic cerebral palsy (patients group) and 15 healthy children (control group) were recruited. They were asked to reach forward sitting on the tilted seat surface with different degrees (-15°, 0°, 15° ) to test the reaction time and movement time. The contraction times of rectus abdominis and back extensors were recorded and ana-lyzed. Results The reaction time and movement time were shorter, and the contraction rates of rectus abdominis and back extensors were lower in the degree with-15° than with 0° and 15° (P<0.001). There was no difference in reaction time between two groups (P>0.05), and the movement time was longer in the patients group than in the control group (P<0.001). The contraction rates were higher in the patients group than in the control group. Conclusion Anterior tilted seat surface may improve the front protraction function of upper limb and the postural adjustment in children with cerebral palsy.

Objective To observe the effects of total flavone from litchi chinensis sonn (TFL) on the liver function in-cluding p16 protein, pro collagen type 3 (PC3) and pro collagen typeⅠ(PCⅠ) in model rats with liver fibrosis induced by bile duct ligation. Methods Forty rats were randomly divided into four groups:sham operation (SO) group, bile duct liga-tion (BDL) group, TFL group and silibinin (SIL) group. Rats were gavaged with saline (5 mL·kg-1·d-1) in SO and BDL group, rats were gavaged with TFL (200 mL·kg-1·d-1) in TFL group and rats were gavaged with SIL (5 mL·kg-1·d-1) in SIL group for four weeks. The serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), bilirubin direct (BILD) and bilirubin total (BILT) were detected in four groups. The liver tissues were stained by HE and Masson methods. The ex-pression levels of p16, PC3 and PCⅠin liver tissues were determined by Western blot assay. Results The serum levels of ALT (44.6 IU/L±8.0 IU/L), AST (103.8 IU/L±18.1 IU/L), BILD (0.76 μmol/L±0.28μmol/L) and BILT (1.48μmol/L±0.35μmol/L) were lower in SO group. There was a higher level of ALT in BDL group (147.4 IU/L±86.3 IU/L) than that of TFL group (92.9 IU/L±47.3 IU/L). The serum level of ALT was higher in AST group (362.7 IU/L±106.6 IU/L) than that of TFL group (290.1 IU/L ± 171.7 IU/L) and SIL group (250.2 IU/L ± 54.9 IU/L). The serum level of BILD was lower in BDL group (99.71μmol/L±40.87μmol/L) than that of SIL group (137.01μmol/L±38.86μmol/L). The serum levels of BILD and BILT were significantly lower in TFL group (81.48μmol/L±47.50μmol/L, 106.64μmol/L±61.04μmol/L) than those of SIL group (P<0.05). There were small amount of new bile duct and no obvious cells degeneration, small amount of infiltration of in-flammatory cells and collagen deposition in TFL group. The liver fibrosis improved significantly in TFL group than that of BDL group. There were more new bile duct in hepatic portal area in SIL group than those of TFL group. The expression levels of p16, PC3 and PCⅠwere significantly higher in BDL group than those of TFL group. The expression level of PC3 was significantly lower in BDL group than that of SIL group. The expression level of PCⅠwas significantly higher in BDL group than that of SIL group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the expression level of p16 between BDL group and SIL group. The expression levels of PC16 and PC3 were significantly lower in TFL group than those of SIL group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the ex-pression level of PCⅠbetween TFL group and SIL group. Conclusion TFL can improve the liver function in model rats with choles-tatic liver fibrosis and reduce liver fibrosis, which may be related with inhibitory effects on the expressions of p 16, PC3 and PCⅠ.

ObjectiveTo observe the architectural parameter changes of the muscles around the knee in middle-aged and elderly women with early knee osteoarthritis (KOA) by musculoskeletal ultrasound, and to clarify the indicators of muscles that affect early KOA. MethodsFrom January to August, 2022, 20 healthy middle-aged and elderly healthy women (controls) and 20 middle-aged and elderly women with unilateral early KOA (KOA group) were recruited through Beijing Bo'ai Hospital, to measure muscle thickness of the popliteus muscle, the muscle thickness and the pennation angle of the quadriceps, as rectus femoris, vastus intermedius, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis longus and vastus medialis oblique. ResultsCompared with the healthy limb of KOA group, and the controls, the muscle thickness of vastus medialis longus, vastus medialis oblique and popliteus muscle of the affected limb of KOA group became thinner (t > 2.133, P < 0.05); the proportion of thickness of vastus medialis oblique to thickness of vastus lateralis became smaller (t > 3.660, P < 0.05). The pennation angle was smaller in the affected limb of KOA group than in the matched dominant side of the controls (t = 3.101, P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the muscle thickness of vastus medialis oblique (OR = 0.235, 95%CI 0.068 to 0.805, P = 0.021) and popliteus muscle (OR = 0.387, 95%CI 0.152 to 0.980, P = 0.045) were related to the onset of early KOA. ConclusionThe thickness of vastus medialis longus, vastus medialis oblique and popliteus muscle decrease, and the balance of the strength of vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis weakens in the affected limbs of the middle-aged and elderly women with early KOA. The thickness of vastus medialis oblique and popliteus muscle are protective factors for onset of KOA.

ObjectiveTo analyze the effect of standardized training on post competency of rehabilitation therapists, based on World Health Organization rehabilitation competency framework (RCF), and combined with the characteristics of rehabilitation and the requirements of standardized training in China. MethodsFrom 2018 to 2022, a total of 30 rehabilitation therapists who participated in the standardized training were selected. Before and after the standardized training, the closed-book theoretical assessment and Mini-clinical Evaluation Exercise (Mini-CEX) assessment were carried out, and a 360-Degree Evaluation scale was distributed to their teachers, peers and patients. Through multi-dimensional post competency analysis, the data obtained from the scales were combined with the five dimensions of basic theoretical knowledge, clinical practice ability, medical humanities literacy, scientific research and teaching ability, and organizational management ability to analyze the effect of standardized training on post competency of rehabilitation therapists. ResultsAfter training, the therapists improved in theory and case analysis (Z > 2.716, P < 0.05). They also improved in medical interview skills, physical examination, humane care/professionalism, clinical judgment ability and overall clinical level (Z > 2.162, P < 0.05) according to Mini-CEX. The medical ethics, daily work, management ability, social ability, interpersonal communication ability, basic professional ability and operation ability improved (Z > 1.978, P < 0.05) according to the 360-Degree Evaluation scale. The effect of standardized training was significant in basic theoretical knowledge, clinical practice ability and medical humanities literacy by the post competency analysis model. ConclusionThe effect of standardized training of rehabilitation therapists is significant, and the therapists can be competent for daily work in diagnosis and treatment after training.

ObjectiveTo compare the effect of proprioceptive neuromuscular training methods on pain and motor ability of knee in patients with early knee osteoarthritis (KOA) . MethodsFrom November, 2022 to May, 2023, 60 early KOA patients from Beijing Bo'ai Hospital and community were randomly divided into groups A, B and C, with 20 patients in each group. Group A received proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF), group B received neuromuscular exercise (NEMEX), and group C received PNF and NEMEX, for six weeks. They were assessed with Visual Analogue Scale for pain (VAS), angle reappearance test, difference of pre-motor reaction time (VM-VL), active range of motion (AROM) of knee flexion, 10-meter walk test (10MWT), and Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) before and after treatment. ResultsAll the indexes improved in all the groups after treatment (|t| > 2.532, P < 0.05). Among the groups, the VAS score was the least in group A, and then groups C and B; the angle reappearance error was the least in group C, and similar in groups A and B; the VM-VL was the least in groups A and C, followed by group B. ConclusionPNF, NEMEX and PNF+NEMEX can relieve the pain and improve the motor function of knee in patients with early KOA, however, PNF is the most effective on relieving pain, and PNF+NEMEX is the most effective on improving knee function.

【Objective】 To analyze the clinical data of prostate cancer patients with normal PSA level confirmed with transperineal prostate biopsy or transurethral prostate surgery, in order to improve the diagnostic level of this disease. 【Methods】 The clinical data of 6 patients were retrospectively analyzed. The age,clinical manifestations, body mass index (BMI),prostate specific antigen density (PSAD),blood triglycerides,blood cholesterol,color ultrasound imaging,magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),pathological types and Gleason scores were analyzed. The clinical characteristics and high-risk factors were summarized. 【Results】 Two cases were confirmed with prostate biopsy and four after prostate resection. Three patients had high blood triglycerides, three were negative for bone imaging, and the other three were not examined. PSAD was 0.017 to 1.215. Color ultrasound indicated that two cases had irregular morphology, two uneven echo, and one both irregular morphology and uneven echo; all six cases had calcification. In the three cases who received MRI, two had PIRADS4 nodules, one had PIRADS5 nodules, invasion of seminal vesicle, rectum, posterior wall of urinary bladder,bilateral thickening of NVB, and lymph nodes enlargement. Pathology suggested prostatic acinar adenocarcinoma in five cases, four of which had a Gleason score of 3+3=6 and one had 5+5=10; one case suggested a high-grade neuroendocrine carcinoma. 【Conclusion】 The clinical detection rate is low for prostate cancer with normal PSA. The biopsy indications should be determined by combining the characteristics and high-risk factors to improve the detection rate.
