BACKGROUND: Knee arthroplasty can correct the joint deformity, alleviate the pain and improve the joint function,thereby improving the patients' quality of life. Early rehabilitative training is the key to the functional recovery of the joint.OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical effectiveness of early gait training on the rehabilitation of patients after knee arthroplasty.METHODS: Eighty-six cases undergoing unilateral knee arthroplasty in the Department of Sports Medicine were selected and randomly divided into experimental and control groups (n=43 per group). The experimental group wasgiven rehabilitation instruction before operation, and the gait training was carried out just after the operation. The patients in the control group only received the basic rehabilitation training. The Visual Analogue Scale and the Hospital for Special Surgery scores were evaluated at baseline and 2, 4, and 8 weeks, and 6 months postoperatively, and the clinical effectiveness was compared between two groups.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The range of motion of the knee in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group at 4 and 8 weeks, and 6 months postoperatively (P < 0.05). (2) At 8 weeks and 6 months postoperatively, the Visual Analogue Scale scores in the two groups both were significantly decreased (P < 0.05). (3) At 2 weeks postoperatively, the Hospital for Special Surgery scores in both groups were significantly increased (P < 0.05);the scores at 8 weeks postoperatively in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group (P > 0.05);the scores at 6 months postoperatively in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). (4) These findings suggest that compared with conventional training, early gaiting training can significantly improve the range of motion and pain of the knee, as well as enhance the functional recovery of the knee joint, which exhibits remarkable curative efficacy in the rehabilitation following knee arthroplasty.

Objective To analyze the assessment results of iodine deficiency disorders(IDD) External Quality Control Laboratories at all levels in Guizhou province and the network operation to further standardize and improve the laboratory, improve network performance, provide reliable laboratory quality assurance for epidemiological surveillance and control of IDD and reliable decision-making. Methods The results of different level of IDD labs in Guizhou that took part in the entire country's IDD lab exo-network quality control examination of 1999 - 2008, which organized by the nation iodine deficiency disorder reference lab were analyzed. Results In the past 10 years, except the provincial laboratory examination results of urinary iodine in 2000 was failed, the other results were all qualified in the rest 9 years;iodized salt examination results were qualified. The urinary iodine laboratory response rate of Guizhou provinces and municipalities(state, district), from 1999 to 2002, were 88.9%(8/9), 66.7%(6/9), 77.8%(7/9), 66.7%(6/9), respectively, and the rate was stable at 100% from 2003 to 2008. Qualifying rate reached 100% in 2007, the remaining 9 years were 33.0%(3/9) - 88.9%(8/9). The iodized salt laboratory response rates were 100%(9/9) in 2000 - 2008. The pass rates were 77.8%(7/9), 88.9%(8/9),77.8%(7/9) from 2001 to 2003, 88.9%(8/9) in 2007, and the remaining 5 years 100%. Response rate of iodized salt laboratory at the county level that participated in the External Quality Control were 66.7% (20/30), 90.0%(27/30), 80.0% (24/30), 96.7% (29/30) from 2000 to 2003, respectively, and 2006 was 96.7% (29/30), and the remaining four years were all 100% (30/30). The pass rates in 2000 - 2008 were between 53.3% (16/30) -93.3%(28/30). Conclusions The accuracy of test results of external quality controls and the normal operation of the network at all levels of laboratories is closely related to the IDD laboratory conditions, detection techniques, and the degree of attention of relevant departments and professional bodies.
