Objective To investigate the effect of an intelligent telerehabilitation developed with reinforcement theory on the postoperative functional recovery and return to sport in patients after reconstructive surgery of anterior cruciate ligament.Methods By using the convenience sampling method,120 patients after reconstructive surgery of anterior cruciate ligament at a tertiary general hospital in Wuhan from June 2022 to June 2023 were selected as the research subjects.Sixty patients admitted to our hospital between June 2022 and December 2022 were assigned to a control group,while another 60 patients admitted to our hospital between January 2023 and June 2023 were assigned to an trial group.The patients in the control group received conventional surgical treatment,nursing care and instructions for rehabilitation,whereas additional rehabilitation based on the intelligent telerehabilitation developed with reinforcement theory was given to the patients in the trial group.The two groups were compared in terms of postoperative knee function and compliance with rehabilitation exercise.Results The compliance of the trial group with home rehabilitation training was higher than that of the control group.The comparison between the two groups showed a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).12 months after surgery,patients in the trial group exhibited higher scores in International Knee Documentation Committee Subjective knee form(IKDC)and Lysholm and Gillquist knee scores compared with those in the control group(both P<0.05.Also,the patients in trial group showed lower incidences of pain,swelling and joint instability compared with those in the control group(all P<0.05).At 12 months after surgery,the patients in trial group showed better capability to perform daily activities and participate in sports in comparison with those in the control group(both P<0.05).Conclusion The intelligent telerehabilitation based on reinforcement theory can improve the compliance of patient with rehabilitation.It therefore is able to reduce incidences of postoperative complications such as pain,swelling,knee instability and locking in patients who had the surgery for reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament.It also enhances the function recovery of knee,and helps patients to resume the activities in life and sports.

Purpose: Vascular calcification (VC) is a common complication of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). This study aimed to examine changes in the expression of miR-21-5p in ESRD patients with VC and to explore its clinical value in predicting the occurrence and progression of uremic VC. Materials and Methods: 120 ESRD patients were divided into patients without VC group (n=38) and patients with VC group (n=82). All patients were followed up for 2 years to evaluate VC progression. qRT-PCR was used to detect serum miR-21-5p levels.Receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed to assess diagnostic value. Kaplan-Meier and log-rank methods were utilized to calculate associations between VC progression and risk factors. Results: Serum miR-21-5p levels were significantly higher in ESRD patients with VC than in those without VC and increased progressively with increasing disease severity. Serum miR-21-5p levels were able to distinguish patients with VC from those without VC, with an area under the curve value of 0.883, a sensitivity of 81.7%, and a specificity of 84.2%. After 2 years of follow-up, miR-21-5p expression had increased in patients with worse VC severity, compared with those with stable VC severity. Patients with high miR-21-5p levels were more likely to develop more severe VC, indicating an association between miR-21-5p and VC progression (log-rank p=0.002). Multivariable Cox regression analysis suggested that serum miR-21-5p is an independent predictive factor of VC progression in ESRD patients (hazard ratio=2.064, 95% confidence interval=1.225–3.478, p=0.006). Conclusion miR-21-5p is overexpressed in the serum of ESRD patients with VC. Our results suggest that overexpression of miR-21-5p is closely associated with VC progression.

Proteins and peptides have become a significant therapeutic modality for various diseases because of their high potency and specificity. However, the inherent properties of these drugs, such as large molecular weight, poor stability, and conformational flexibility, make them difficult to be formulated and delivered. Injection is the primary route for clinical administration of protein and peptide drugs, which usually leads to poor patient's compliance. As a portable, minimally invasive device, microneedles (MNs) can overcome the skin barrier and generate reversible microchannels for effective macromolecule permeation. In this review, we highlighted the recent advances in MNs-mediated transdermal delivery of protein and peptide drugs. Emphasis was given to the latest development in representative MNs design and fabrication. We also summarize the current application status of MNs-mediated transdermal protein and peptide delivery, especially in the field of infectious disease, diabetes, cancer, and other disease therapy. Finally, the current status of clinical translation and a perspective on future development are also provided.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect and complication of whole γ-knife stereotactic radiotherapy on the non-small cell lung cancer and explore the value of γ-knife stereotactic radiotherapy in treatment of non - small cell lung cancer. Methods42 patients with non -small cell lung cancer:γ-knife radiotherapy patients ,4 ～ 8Gy once a day,five times a week,4 ～ 10times and 40 ～50Gy in total. ResultsThe overall response rate (CR + PR) in γ-knife was 71.4％. The1-,2-and 3-year survival rates were 95.5％, 59.5％, 33.3％. ConclusionCompared with conventional radiation,γ-knife stereotactic radiotherapy could achieve tumor dose escalation,and give the normal tissue better protection at the same time. It could improve the tumor control rate of non-small cell lung cancer,improve long survival rate,and so could reduce the radiation reaction.
