Objective: To explore the correlation of balance ability with short term memory and executive function among college students, so as to provide a theoretical basis for balance training and cognitive enhancement in college students. Methods: In November 2024, 80 college students were recruited from Chongqing Normal University. The dynamic and static balance abilities were measured using the Y-balance test(YBT) and PhysioSensing equipment. Short term memory and executive function were assessed through the digital span test, trail making test(TMT) and Stroop colour-word task. Pearson or Spearman analysis was used to explore the correlation between balance ability and cognitive function among college students. Results: The comprehensive scores of the balance YBT for college students were as follows: left side (95.14±5.93)% and right side (95.17±5.24)%.The average sway velocity of static balance under the conditions of stable surface with eyes open, stable surface with eyes closed, unstable surface with eyes open and unstable surface with eyes closed were 27.58(20.45, 37.64), 23.56(17.57, 34.77), 61.15(40.73, 78.05), 55.88 (40.84, 66.65)mm/s. The comprehensive scores of the YBT for both lower limbs in college students were negatively correlated with the time taken for TMT Part A (TMT-A), TMT Part B (TMT-B), and the difference in time spent between TMT-A and TMT-B (TMT-D) ( r =-0.55 to -0.24，all P <0.05). The average sway velocity under the four conditions was positively correlated with TMT-A, TMT-B, TMT-D, consistent reaction time, conflict reaction time and reaction time difference ( r =0.26-0.69，all P < 0.05). Under conditions of normal vestibular sensation with proprioception interference, the visual contribution in college students was negatively correlated with TMT-A, TMT-B, conflict reaction time and reaction time difference ( r =-0.28 to -0.22,all P < 0.05 ). Under conditions of normal vision and vestibular sensation, the proprioception contribution in college students was positively correlated with TMT-A, TMT-B, consistent reaction time, conflict reaction time and reaction time difference( r =0.26-0.39,all P < 0.05). Under conditions of normal vestibular sensation with visual interference, the proprioception contribution in college students was positively correlated with consistent reaction time and conflict reaction time ( r =0.24, 0.25,both P <0.05). Conclusions There is a correlation between balance ability and executive function in college students. When maintaining static balance, if the visual or proprioceptive system is interfered with, college students with poorer executive function rely more on other systems for compensation.

ObjectiveTo systematically investigate the discrepancies between employment preferences and actual job placements among postgraduate students in rehabilitation medicine, explore the influencing factors, and elucidate the underlying mechanisms of their employment decisions. MethodsA cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted among 100 full-time postgraduate students who had graduated from Capital Medical University School of Rehabilitation in the past six years. A self-designed questionnaire was used to collect information on personal background, self-assessed competencies, employment preferences, and actual job placements. Logistic regression models were employed to analyze the factors influencing employment preferences and actual job placements, respectively. ResultsEmployment preferences among rehabilitation medicine postgraduates were highly concentrated on large tertiary hospitals (79.0%), yet the actual placement rate (61.0%) showed a significant gap. Preference for tertiary hospitals showed no significant association with individual factors such as gender, degree type or self-assessed competencies (P > 0.05). Univariate analysis revealed that those who entered tertiary hospitals scored significantly higher in self-assessed clinical skills, research ability, communication and coordination, and resource integration (|t| > 3.661, P < 0.001), and demonstrated clearer career planning (P = 0.012). Multivariate logistic regression analysis did not identify any independent predictors of actual employment within the context of this study sample (P > 0.05). ConclusionEmployment among rehabilitation medicine postgraduates is characterized by highly homogeneous preferences coexisting with complexity of factors influencing actual employment. It is recommended to optimize the training system, deepen personalized career education, and establish diversified employment guidance mechanisms to promote rational talent flow and facilitate the balanced development of the rehabilitation medical service system.

ObjectiveTo study on the different therapeutic effects and potential mechanisms of Rhei Radix et Rhizoma（RH） before and after steaming with wine on constipation model mice. MethodsFifty-four male ICR mice were randomly divided into control group， model group， lactulose group（1.5 mg·kg^-1）， high， medium and low dose groups of RH and RH steaming with wine（PRH）（8， 4， 1 g·kg^-1）. Except for the control group， the constipation model was replicated by gavage of loperamide hydrochloride（6 mg·kg^-1） in the other groups. After 2 weeks of modeling， each administration group was gavaged with the corresponding dose of drug solution， and the control and model groups were given an equal volume of normal saline， 1 time/d for 2 consecutive weeks. After administration， the feces were collected for 16S rRNA sequencing， the levels of gastrin（GAS）， motilin（MTL）， interleukin-6（IL-6）， γ-interferon（IFN-γ） in the colonic tissue were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA）， the histopathological changes of colon were observed by hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining， flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion changes of CD4⁺， CD8⁺ and regulatory T cell（Treg） in peripheral blood. ResultsCompared with the control group， the model group showed significantly decrease in fecal number in 24 h， fecal quality and fecal water rate（P<0.01）， the colon was seen to have necrotic shedding of mucosal epithelium， localized intestinal glands in the lamina propria were degenerated， necrotic and atrophied， a few lymphocytes were seen to infiltrate in the necrotic area in a scattered manner， the contents of GAS and MTL， the proportions of CD4⁺， CD8⁺ and Treg were significantly reduced（P<0.01）， the contents of IL-6 and IFN-γ were significantly elevated（P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the fecal number in 24 h， fecal quality and fecal water rate of high-dose groups of RH and PRH were significantly increased（P<0.05， P<0.01）， the pathological damage of the colon was alleviated to varying degrees， the contents of GAS， MTL， IL-6 and IFN-γ were significantly regressed（P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the proportions of CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ were significantly increased（P<0.01）， although the proportion of Treg showed an upward trend， there was no significant difference. In addition， the results of intestinal flora showed that the number of amplicon sequence variant（ASV） and Alpha diversity were decreased in the model group compared with the control group， and there was a significant difference in Beta diversity， with a decrease in the relative abundance of Lactobacillus and an increase in the relative abundances of Bacillus and Helicobacter. Compared with the model group， the ASV number and Alpha diversity were increased in the high-dose groups of RH and PRH， and there was a trend of regression of Beta diversity to the control group， the relative abundance of Lactobacillus increased， and the relative abundances of Bacillus and Helicobacter decreased. ConclusionRH and PRH can improve dysbacteriosis， promote immune system activation， inhibit the release of inflammatory factors for enhancing the gastrointestinal function， which may be one of the potential mechanisms of their therapeutic effect on constipation.

Objective The biomechanical performance of Ilizarov fixator models with different configurations for humeral shaft defect was compared,so as to provide a biomechanical basis for selecting the appropriate circular external fixation structure for the clinical treatment of humeral shaft defects using Ilizarov technology.Methods Based on CT data of the humerus from a healthy volunteer,the external fixators with three configurations,namely,hybrid frame,semi-ring frame and 90° fan frame were established.The finite element method was used to simulate the displacement and stress distribution under different loading conditions,and the finite element results were validated by biomechanical tests.Results Finite element analysis results:in terms of displacement,under compression,tensile and torque conditions,the displacement of 90° fan model was smaller than that of hybrid and semi-ring models.In terms of stress,the 90° fan model had the smallest displacement under tensile condition.In compression and torque tests,the semi-annular model had the lowest stress.Biomechanical test results:the semi-ring model exhibited the smallest displacement under axial compression,but there was no significant difference between the three models(P＞0.05).Conclusions The semi-ring and 90° fan frames can achieve a similar stability as the traditional hybrid frame through the strategy of'reducing the ring and increasing the stem'.The unilateral structure of the 90° fan frame has the advantages of small size,light weight,and structural stability,as well as a small impact on the shoulder and elbow joints,which makes it more valuable in clinical applications.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of minimally invasive neuroendoscopy combined with intraventricular drainage in the treatment of intraventricular hemorrhage.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 88 patients with intraventricular hemorrhage who underwent surgical treatment from January 2018 to December 2023.All patients received bilateral ventricular indwelling external drainage tubes.Among them,37 cases were included in the endoscopy group.The bleeding side or side with more blood accumulation underwent a midline fistula.With the assistance of neuroendoscopy,the intraventricular blood clots were removed and a ventricular drainage tube was inserted.The contralateral ventricle was punctured and a ventricular drainage tube was inserted;The remaining 51 cases were included in the drainage group,in which bilateral ventricular drainage tubes were placed according to the traditional intraventricular drainage protocol.Results There was no significant statistical difference(P>0.05)between the endoscopic group and the drainage group in terms of mortality rate(10.8%vs.13.7%),rebleeding rate(8.1%vs.11.8%,P=0.576),intracranial infection rate(10.8%vs.17.6%,P=0.372),and hydrocephalus rate(10.8%vs.23.5%,P=0.166).Similarly,no significant statistical difference was found in the total hospitalization cost between the endoscopy group and the drainage group[(90700±73000)yuan vs.(99500±66000)yuan]and the GOS score during the 6-month follow-up(3.16±1.14 vs 3.02±1.12)showed(P>0.05).However,the postoperative GCS score improvement was significantly better in the endoscopic group than in the drainage group[2.00(2.00,4.00)vs.1.00(0.00,3.00),P=0.002].The duration of the extracranial drainage catheter placement was significantly shorter in the endoscopic group than in the drainage group[(7.16±2.99)days vs.(10.12±3.93)days,P<0.001].Conclusion Neuroendoscopy-assisted evacuation of intraventricular hemorrhage facilitates effective hematoma clearance,reduces the duration of ventricular drainage catheterization,and may contribute to improved patient outcomes.
