Objective To analyze the application of flipped classroom in the practical teaching of rehabilitation assessment courses for rehabilitation therapy majors,and to explore a new teaching method for rehabilitation therapy.Methods Eighty students majoring in rehabilitation therapy from the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of Guangzhou Xinhua University in grade 2020 were selected as the research objects.They were assigned into observation group or control group according to the random number table method,with 40 cases in each group.The observation group adopted the flip classroom teaching mode,and the rehabilitation assessment course teaching based on flipped classroom was carried out,while the control group adopted the traditional teaching mode.The students'theoretical and operational assessment results,teaching effect,and teaching model satisfaction were analyzed.Results No statistically significant differences were found in theoretical test scores between the two student groups(by gender/course).The students in the observation group had higher theoretical scores[(80.25±11.65 vs 72.50±14.28)score].The observation group showed significantly higher satisfaction scores than the control group across all three dimensions:classroom learning enthusiasm,teacher-student interaction,and overall teaching satisfaction.(P<0.05).Conclusion The application of flipped classroom in the rehabilitation therapy teaching is helpful to improve the professional theoretical level of students,and to a certain extent,it is beneficial to improve the professional level of teachers.

Objective: To investigate the molecular mechanism of NOD-like receptor(NLR) signaling pathway induced cellular focal death in mouse kidney tissues under plateau hypoxia based on transcriptomic sequencing technology. Methods: Animal models were constructed in high-altitude kidney test group(HKT group) and plain kidney control group(PKC group),and C57/BL6 mice were bred at an altitude of 4 200 m and 400 m,respectively.Kidney tissues were aseptically taken out after 30 d and used for observation of renal histopathological changes and transcriptomics sequencing,respectively,and then differentially expressed genes(DEGs) were enriched by KEGG and GO analysis.Key gene and protein expression levels were verified by reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR) and Western blot analysis. Results: Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining showed that the renal tubules of HKT mice were disorganized,and the tubular epithelial cells were edematous with inflammatory cell aggregation.Transcriptomics sequencing analysis revealed that a total of 3 007 DEGs were identified in the HKT group,and KEGG analysis showed that DEGs were significantly enriched in the NLR signaling pathway.The mRNA expression of the key differentially expressed genes,CASP1,CASP11,GSDMD,IFI16,NAIP5,IRF9,and the downstream inflammatory factors,IL-1β and IL-18,was upregulated,and protein expression of CASP1,CASP11,and GSDMD was up-regulated. Conclusion The plateau hypoxic environment induces cellular pyroptosis by regulating the expression of NLR signaling pathway and releases downstream inflammatory factors to cause inflammatory responses.

In magnetic resonance examination,the interaction between implants and the radio frequency(RF)fields induces heating in human tissue and may cause tissue damage.To assess the RF-induced heating of implants,three steps should be executed,including electromagnetic model construction,electromagnetic model validation,and virtual human body simulations.The crucial step of assessing RF-induced heating involves the construction of a test environment for electromagnetic model validation.In this study,a hardware environment,comprised of a RF generation system,electromagnetic field measurement system,and a robotic arm positioning system,was established.Furthermore,an automated control software environment was developed using a Python-based software development platform to enable the creation of a high-precision automated integrated test environment.The results indicate that the electric field generated in this test environment aligns well with the simulated electric field,making it suitable for assessing the RF-induced heating effects of implants.

This paper investigates the mechanism of radio-frequency(RF)heating that occurs when two adjacent orthopedic implants are present together under magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)at 1.5 Tesla and 3.0 Tesla.When a patient has multiple implants close to each other,interactions between the implants may increase RF heating.Typical generic interlocking plate and antibiotic nail implants are adopted as examples.To analyze the effect of adjacent implants,the amplitude and direction of incident and scattering vector electric fields at the hot spot position are calculated and extracted using numerical simulation based on Huygens principle.It is shown that a strong coupling effect occurs due to the existence of both the incident field and a strong scattering field.Huygens principle can be used to obtain the first and second order scattering fields generated between implants.If the first-and second-order electric field terms are summed within a certain region,the RF-induced heating of this dual-implant system increases.

Objective:To establish a multilocus sequence typing (MLST) assay for Corynebacterium ( C.) striatum, explore the population structure and evolution relationship of clinical isolates of C. striatum. Methods:Seven housekeeping genes ( gyrA, gyrB, hsp65, sodA, secA1, rpoB, 16S rRNA) were amplified with PCR by using self-designed specific primers and sequenced. Then, the sequences were assembled with software SeqMan. The gene diversity and gene recombination characteristics were evaluated by using software DnaSP 5.10.01 and Splits tree 4.14.2. The phylogenetic tree and the minimum spanning tree were constructed based on the sequence types (ST) characteristics by using software MEGA 7.0.14 and BioNumerics, respectively. In addition, the genetic evolutionary relationship among STs were analyzed by using software eBURST 3.0. Results:The expected amplification products of seven sites selected in all the test strains were obtained. Splits tree showed that the clustering of all C. striatum strains was consistent, suggesting that gene recombination is the potential driving force for the evolution of C. striatum. All of the 344 C.striatum strains were divided into 72 STs by MLST and 85.7% of the strains formed clonal complexes. CC19 was the predominant clonal complex, whereas ST16 in the clonal complex was detected in the most strains. ST had a certain geographic clustering and a certain correlation with the isolation time. Conclusions:C. striatum showed high genetic diversity in China and CC19 was the predominant clonal complex. The MLST assay established in this study can be used for the typing of C. striatum, but further improvement is needed.
