This paper collected the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescriptions of osteoporosis and osteoarthritis from CNKI to set up database and used TCM inheritance system to analyze the composing principles in prescriptions. We collected 103 and 106 prescriptions for osteoporosis and osteoarthritis respectively, then analyzed inherent principles between herbs in prescriptions by using the TCM inheritance system, and obtained the frequency of each herb, and drug combinations of two diseases' prescriptions. The result showed that the principles in TCM prescriptions of osteoporosis and osteoarthritis are similarities, buch as tonifying kidney and invigorating the circulation of blood, but differences of the specific drugs. That is to say, tonifying kidney is the main method of osteoporosis treatment, however, invigorating the circulation of blood is the main method of osteoarthritis treatment.

Objective To explore the optimal protocol of lower-extremity contrast-enhanced MRA (CE-MRA) in the evaluation of diabetic foot.Methods Twenty eight healthy volunteers were scanned by CE-MRA in crus twice with parellel imaging factor (PIF) of 3 or 4.The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR),contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and image quality of popliteal artery,posterior tibial artery,anterior tibial artery and peroneal artery were compared.Twenty patients with diabetic foot underwent CE-MRA by both of protocol 1 and 2 in leg,crus and foot.Protocol 1 was the traditional Care-bolus protocol and protocol 2 was the optimized K-space center filling delay-time protocol.The difference of two protocols in venous aliasing and in display of femoral artery,popliteal artery,posterior tibial artery,anterior tibial artery,peroneal artery,dorsalis pedis artery,medial plantar artery and lateral plantar artery were compared.The SNR,CNR of two different PIF sequences were compared by paired t test,and the display of artery of crus was compared by Wilcoxon.The display of vessels and venous aliasing of 2 protocols of diabetic foot patients were compared by Wilcoxon.Results In the images of healthy volunteers with PIF of 3,the SNR were 267±84,174±51,147±42;and the CNR were 232 ±83,139±51,108±39 at popliteal artery,posterior tibial artery and peroneal artery.However,in the images with PIF of 4,the SNR were 239±73,157±53,132±35;and CNR were 206±71,124±50,103±33,respectively.Both the SNR and CNR were higher in the former than in the latter(t values were 2.31 to 4.11,P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the vessel display between the different PIF volunteers (P＞0.05).In the protocol 1 of patients with diabetic foot,the display of popliteal artery,posterior tibial artery,anterior tibial artery,peroneal artery,dorsalis pedis artery,medial plantar artery and lateral plantar artery,the venous aliasing in crus and foot were 3.40±0.82,2.70±0.80,2.50±1.00,2.20±0.77,2.30±0.92,2.15± 1.04,1.45±0.60,2.20± 1.01,2.20± 1.06.And in the protocol 2,they were 3.85±0.37,3.55± 0.69,3.30±0.92,2.90±0.79,3.30±0.92,3.25±0.79,1.95±1.10,3.70±0.47,3.65±0.49,respectively(P＜0.05).All of these parameters of protocol 2 were superior to protocol 1.Conclusion Using a higher PIF properly,setting the personalized K-space center filling delay-time can contribute to improving the image quality of whole lower-extremity MRA in patients with diabetic foot.

BACKGROUND: The traditional ankle-foot orthosis focuses on the protection, correction, stability, and compensation;therefore, it is important to explore a new rehabilitation method for ankle joint dysfunction.OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of computer-aided movable and measurable ankle-foot orthosis that designed by the Department of Rehabilitation in Longgang Central Hospital of Shenzhen on postoperative dysfunction after ankle fracture.METHODS: Fifty-two patients with ankle fractures at 3 weeks after internal fixation were selected and equivalently randomized into two groups. Both groups received conventional oral medication and rehabilitation therapy. In addition,the patients in control group were given joint mobilization treatment, while those in experimental group were given computer-aided movable and measurable of ankle-foot orthosis, 20 minutes daily, 6 days weekly for consecutive 4 weeks. The efficacy was evaluated by muscle strength, active range of motion, Kofoed ankle score and visual analogue scale on computer at baseline, 7, 14, and 28 days after training.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) There were no significant differences in baseline data and ankle function scores between two groups before training (P > 0.05), and all above indicators were significantly improved in both two groups at 4 weeks after training (P < 0.05). (2) Compared with the control group, the muscle strength, Kofoed ankle score and visual analogue scale scores on computer in the experimental group were significantly improved at 7, 14 and 28 days after training (P < 0.05). (3) The active plantar flexion angle in the experimental group was significantly larger than that in the control group at 28 days after training (P < 0.05).The active plantar flexion and dorsiflexion angles at 7 and 14 days after training, and active dorsiflexion angle at 28 days after training did not differ significantly between two groups (P >0.05). To conclude, the unique ankle-foot orthosis can reduce postoperative pain, enhance muscle strength and improve ankle mobility after ankle fracture.
