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.

Objective:Helicobacter pylori is one of the human pathogens causing gastric ulcers and cancers.A key virulence factor of H.pylori is the Cag pathogenicity island,which encodes a type IV secretion system.HP0525 is an essential component of the Cag system and acts as an inner membrane associated ATPase.To construct recombinant plasmid containing hp0525 gene of Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)NCTC 11637,and analysis of sequence nucleic acid,express it in E.coli BL21 and study the influence of the HP0525 protein on proliferation of SGC-7901 cells.Methods:H.pylor hp0525 gene was amplified from the genome DNA by PCR,then operated T-A cloning and sequenced.The hp0525gene fragment was inserted directionally into vector pMD18-T to construct recombinant clones of hp0525 and was sequenced.The recombinant plasmid was transformed into E.coli BL21for expressing under induction of IPTG.Purify the expressed protein by Ni2+-NTA column chromatography.Expressed product was analyzed by Western blot and MALDI-TOF.Added the purified protein into SGC-7901 cells,the effect of cell proliferation in SGC-7901 cells induced by the recombinant protein was observed by MTT.Results:A 993 base pairs long hp0525 gene,which encodes a product of 330 amino acid,was obtained using PCR method and was cloned into pMD18-T vector successfully.The sequence analysis for hp0525 showed that it shares 97%~99% homology with other strains in Gene bank.SDS-PAGE showed a protein band with a relative molecular weight of 36 000,which was consistent with the expectation.The expressed product reached a purity of 97% after Ni2+-NTA column chromatography.The protein after dialyzed and annealed,was co-cultured with SGC-7901 cells,The protien of different concentration co-cultured with SGC-7901 cells for different times,found that the protein in low concentration stimulates proliferation of cells,to achieve some concentration,it inhibits proliferation of cells along with multiplication of the concentration of the protein;The protein inhibits proliferation of cells relay on the extension of time and concentration.Conclusion:It is indicated that the correct hp0525 gene was obtained and expressed in E.coli BL21.High purified protein was obtained by Ni2+-NTA column chromatography,the protein can inhibits proliferation of SGC-7901cells,and T-ATPase activity which posed a basis for further researching on its biological function.
