Objective To explore the short and long term efficacy of ultrasound therapy combined with muscle imbalance adjustment training in patients with adhesive capsulitis(AC) ofthe shoulder. Methods A total of 60 AC patients were divided into an observation group and a control group,both each consisting of 30 cases. The observation group underwentultrasound therapy along with muscle imbalance adjustment training,while the control group received acupuncture treatment,both for a duration of 20 days. The Visual Analogue Scale(VAS),goniom-eter for ROM,Manual Muscle Testing(MMT),Constant-Murley Shoulder Score,and modified Barthel index were used to access shoulder jointpain level,range of motion (ROM),peripheral muscle strength,shoulder joint func-tion,and daily living abilities,respectively. The Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) were utilized to evaluate the levels of anxiety and depression.All the assessments were conducted and compared between the two groups before treatment,at the end of treatment,and at 6 and 12 months after treatment. Results Both groups showed varying degrees of improvement in ROM,MMT,VAS,Constant-Murley score,modified Barthel index,and emotional status compared to pre-treatment. The observation group demonstrated superior outcomes in posterior shoulder extension strength,VAS,Constant-Murley score,modified Barthel index,HAMA,and HAMD scores at the end of treatment (P<0.05). At 6 months post-treatment,the observation group showed better shoulder joint flexion,extension,abduction,and adduction ROM,as well as muscle strength in flexion,external rotation,and internal rotation,VAS,Constant-Murley score,modified Barthel index,HAMA,and HAMD scores. At 12 months after treatment,the observation group continued to show superior outcomes in all the aforementioned indexes (P<0.05). Conclusion The combination of ultrasound therapy and muscle imbalance adjustment training can effectively reduce shoulder joint pain,improve ROM,enhance muscle strength around the shoulder joint,improve shoulder joint function,alleviate anxiety and depression,and ultimately enhance the quality of life for patients with AC.

As population aging intensifies,stroke incidence is rising yearly.Complicated with neurological impairment,this condition often leads to motor dysfunction,affecting walking stability and coordination and severely impacting the patient's daily life and mental state.In recent years,digital technology-assisted walking rehabilitation training has shown great potential in post-stroke rehabilitation.By integrating modern digital technolo-gies such as virtual reality,intelligent feedback systems,and remote rehabilitation,this approach not only provides personalized rehabilitation plans but also promotes the recovery of walking function through immersive training,real-time feedback,and remote monitoring.This article reviews the application status,effectiveness,and limita-tions of digital-technology-assisted walking rehabilitation for post-stroke hemiplegic patients.It aims to clarify the new direction of post-stroke walking training and explore more effective rehabilitation methods to help patients regain their walking ability.

Hepatitis E virus (HEV) sequences including four major genotypes representative strains available in GenBank were aligned with the DNAMAN software. The highly conserved internal region of ORF2 was then subjected to design primers and a probe. Furthermore, a 0.3 kb fragment of HEV ORF2 containing the amplification region was transcribed in vitro to synthese cRNA standard and a universal real-time TaqMan PCR assay was optimized and developed to detect and quantify main genotypes RNA of HEV. The specificity and reliability of the real-time RT-PCR was confirmed by testing genotype I HEV, genotype IV HEV and clinical samples. The detection limit of real-time RT-PCR was found 2.0 x 10(1) copies per reaction using in vitro transcribed cRNA. Compared with nested RT-PCR in diagnosis of HEV, the real-time RT-PCR developed was 10 to 100-fold more sensitive than the nested RT-PCR. The detection results from 54 clinical specimens indicated real-time RT-PCR was a rapid, sensitive and reproducible diagnostic method for HEV. This assay will be useful as an early and rapid diagnostic assay for HEV.
