BACKGROUND:Research on foot and ankle proprioception is crucial for the rehabilitation of chronic ankle instability and geriatric diseases as well as for the improvement of body posture control and motor performance.Previous studies have often studied the sensory evaluation of the foot and ankle joints separately,which has limitations for a comprehensive understanding of their sensory function. OBJECTIVE:The foot and ankle complex is the only part in direct contact with the support surface,and plays an important role in the collective sensory feedback and regulation and balance control.By combing the existing investigation and research of foot and ankle ontology,the measurement and evaluation methods of the sensation of the foot and ankle complex are combed,in order to pave the way and provide the theoretical basis for future related studies. METHODS:Chinese terms"(foot OR foot ankle OR ankle)AND(sensation OR proprioception)"and English terms"(foot OR ankle)AND(feel OR proprioception)"were used as the keywords for retrieving relevant literature in the Web of Science,PubMed,and CNKI.We understood the basic concepts,current status and scope of research on the foot and ankle,summarized and evaluated the proprioceptive evaluation methods of the foot and ankle,and finally included 57 papers for further review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The evaluation of foot and ankle complex sensation was mainly divided into sensory evaluation of the foot and proprioceptive evaluation of the ankle joint.The sensory evaluation of the foot mainly describes the sensation of the skin and the sensory feedback under the intervention conditions.The methods mainly include the pressure sensory threshold test,the two-point discrimination test of the foot(planar and plantar),and the duration test of skin vibration sensation.Ankle joint proprioception evaluation focuses on the description of joint position,motion range,force value and functional performance.The methods are mainly divided into static joint angle reset test,motion minimum threshold test,force perception reproduction test and dynamic balance,speed and walking ability tests.The report of quantitative results is generally expressed by"an error,"which is generally divided into absolute error,relative error,constant error,etc.To conclude,the foot and ankle complex has specific sensory capabilities,including foot sensation and ankle proprioception,which affect the quality of life and athletic performance of humans.Weakness of both foot sensation and ankle proprioception is associated with reduced human balance,and the combined measurements of the two can comprehensively and effectively evaluate foot and ankle function.The combination of foot and ankle sensory measures is selected according to different research needs and various influencing factors such as environment,emotion and reporting style are fully considered,to improve the validity of measurement and evaluation.
4.Plantar Pressure and Plantar Sensory Characteristics in Patients with Flat Foot
Journal of Medical Biomechanics 2024;39(2):278-284
Objective To investigate the relationship between plantar pressure and plantar sensation in people with different foot types and provide theoretical references for injury evaluation and sports recovery in patients with flat feet.Methods Recruited participants were initially screened using a three-dimensional(3D)foot scanner.They were divided according to the arch index as follows:16 in the normal foot group and 16 in the flat foot group.Plantar pressure and sensation tests were performed in different groups using the Footscan high-frequency plantar pressure test system and the Semmes-Weinstein monofilament test,respectively.The test results were analyzed for statistical descriptions and correlations.Results The plantar pressure impulses of the left and right arches and the medial area in the flat foot group increased significantly compared with those in the normal foot group(P<0.05).The plantar sensory thresholds of the first metatarsal bone and arch position in the flatfoot group were lower than those in the normal foot group(P<0.05).There was a significant positive correlation between left foot sole sensation,right foot arch position,and plantar pressure in the flat foot group.Conclusions The structural features of reduced arches and excessive valgus in people with flat feet result in increased plantar pressure impulses and lower thresholds of plantar sensory sensitivity in the arch and medial heel positions.Meanwhile,there is a correlation between plantar sensation and plantar pressure;the greater the load of plantar pressure,the lower the threshold of plantar sensation.

Inclusion criteria: ①Aged 18-70 years, with verifiable clinical data showing at least 3 episodes of acute UTIs within 1 year and at least 2 episodes within 6 months, and cured by antimicrobial therapy; ② At the time of enrollment, the patients had no obvious symptoms of urinary tract irritation, normal white blood cell count in midstream urine routine (within the normal range of laboratory standards of each unit) or ≤3HP by centrifuge microscopy, negative leucocyte esterase and nitrite, and negative urine culture; ③No abnormal urinary anatomic function (such as urinary obstruction, calculus or congenital urinary malformation) and residual urine volume ≤50 ml were detected by B-ultrasound of urinary system; ④Informed consent signed by the person or agent; ⑤Clear consciousness, able to answer questions independently, according to the requirements of the test plan to complete the research questionnaire. Exclusion criteria: ①Patients allergic to the above drugs; ②Any complex signs of urinary tract infection or pyelonephritis (manifested as low back pain, fever ≥37.3℃, systemic symptoms); ③Drugs affecting immune function were used within 7 days before randomization; ④Patients with basic diseases of urinary system such as obstruction, calculus, urinary stenosis, vesicoureteral reflux or other functional abnormalities, urine diversion, indwelling catheter or stent tube or intermittent catheterization; ⑤Combined with or existing systemic lupus erythematosus, AIDS and other diseases that can lead to systemic immune function abnormalities; ⑥Patients who are known or suspected to be pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning a pregnancy within 3 months of stopping the drug; ⑦Patients with malignant tumors and mental patients; ⑧Persons who have received any other investigational drug treatment or participated in another interventional clinical trial within 4 weeks prior to screening; ⑨Failure to comply with the trial protocol or other conditions deemed unsuitable for enrollment by the investigator. Patients were randomly divided into 2 groups. The experimental group was given Pseudomonas aeruginosa injection for 5 times, 0.5 ml for the first time, and 1 ml/ time per week for the following 4 weeks. The control group was given fosfomycin aminotriol 3g orally, once every 10 days, for 9 consecutive times. The patients were followed up for 6 to 8 months, during which urinary tract symptoms developed and routine urine tests showed abnormally elevated white blood cells, which was defined as recurrent UTIs. Urine routine, liver and kidney function, and urinary secretory immunoglobulin A(SIgA) were reviewed 0-2 days (V2) after the 5th administration of the experimental group and the 4th administration of the control group. Urine routine and urine SIgA were reviewed at (90±10) d (V3) and (180±10) d (V4) after treatment. At (270±10) d (V5) after treatment, the recurrence (re-infection caused by the same species of bacteria) or re-infection (re-infection caused by non-same species of bacteria) of the two groups were compared, and non-inferiority analysis was performed, and the non-inferiority threshold was set at 0.2. Results:From March 2021 to May 2022, a total of 152 rUTIs patients were enrolled in this study, including 80 patients in the experimental group, 71 patients in the intention-to-analysis set (ITT) and 66 patients in the protocol analysis set (PPS). In the control group, 72 cases met ITT in 69 cases and PPS in 67 cases. There were no significant differences in age, body mass index, marital status, duration of urinary tract infection, history of diabetes, history of previous major surgery, history of infection, and urinary SIgA between the two groups (all P>0.05). The recurrence rates of the experimental group and the control group at V5 time point were 44.78% (30/67) and 42.65% (29/68), respectively ( P=0.803) (ITT data set analysis results showed that the difference in recurrence rates between the two groups was 0.0213(95% CI-0.1460-0.1886, P=0.0048). PPS data set analysis showed that the difference of recurrence rate between the two groups was -0.0021(95%CI -0.1711-0.1670, P=0.0109), and the recurrence rate of the experimental group was not worse than that of the control group. At V2 time points, there were no significant differences in liver and kidney function indexes between test group and control group ( P>0.05). At V2 to V4 time points, urinary SIgA of test group and control group were 0.90 (0.37, 2.89) mg/L and 1.32 (0.34, 3.08) mg/L, 1.54 (0.44, 3.23) mg/L and 1.71 (0.27, 2.92) mg/L, 1.11 (0.65, 3.42) mg/L and 2.18 (0.43, 3.26) mg/L, there was no statistical significance ( P>0.05). The incidence of adverse events in the experimental group was 30.0% (24/80), including 14 cases of redness, pain and discomfort at the injection site, 5 cases of fever, 2 cases of allergic rash, and 1 case of urticaria, headache and constipation each. The incidence of adverse events in the control group was 5.6% (4/72), all of which were diarrhea, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.01). No life-threatening serious adverse events occurred in both groups, and all adverse events were self-healing without additional intervention. Conclusions:Compared with fosfomycin aminotriol, Pseudomonas aeruginosa injection has the same clinical effect in preventing rUTI and has good safety.

Objective:To observe the effectiveness of bone cement-enhanced proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) in the treatment of severe osteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture.Methods:Between January 2016 and June 2017, 23 patients with severe osteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture were treated with bone cement-enhanced PFNA at Department of Orthopaedics, The Second Affiliated Hospital to Luohe Medical College. They were 9 men and 14 women with an average age of 85.3 years (range, from 80 to 91 years). According to AO/OTA-2018 classification, there were 2 cases of type 31-A1.3, 5 cases of type 31-A2.2, 13 cases of type 31-A2.3 and 3 cases of type 31-A3.3. According to Singh standard grading, 4 cases were rated as level 1, 16 cases as level 2 and 3 cases as level 3. The PFNA fixation was enhanced by bone cement in all. The operation time, amount of intraoperative bleeding, postoperative complications, fracture healing time and hip Harris scores at the last follow-up were recorded.Results:The operation time averaged 56.3 minutes (range, from 47 to 91 minutes) and the amount of intraoperative bleeding 197 mL (range, from 110 to 450 mL). All patients were followed up for 5 to 27 months (mean, 14.7 months). One patient who had been rated as good by the Harris hip score died 5 months after surgery because of acute suppurative obstructive cholangitis. All the 23 fractures achieved bony union. The healing time averaged 11.3 weeks (range, from 8 to 18 weeks). By the Harris scores at the last follow-up, 11 cases were excellent, 10 cases good and 2 cases fair, giving an excellent and good rate of 91.3%.Conclusion:Bone cement-enhanced PFNA can bring about good short-term outcomes for severe osteoporotic intertrochanteric fractures because it can improve the screw control and reduce the risk of internal fixation failure.
