Objective To investigate the effects of high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation(HD-tDCS)on the modulation of the H-reflex and M-wave during ankle dorsiflexion-plantar flexion fatigue tasks to provide direction for the application of HD-tDCS in mitigating neuromuscular fatigue.Methods Twenty healthy young male participants were recruited and randomly assigned to either the real stimulation or sham stimulation group,with 10 participants in each group.The intervention consisted of a 5-day single-blind HD-tDCS application(duration:20 min;intensity:2 mA;target:Cz).Baseline measurements of the H-reflex and M-wave under resting conditions,M-wave during maximal voluntary isometric contraction(MVIC)of the dorsiflexor muscle,and MVIC torque of the dorsiflexor and plantar flexor muscles were obtained.An ankle dorsiflexion fatigue task was performed to determine the time to achieve fatigue for the task.The same fatigue task was repeated and evaluated one day after the intervention.A repeated-measures two-factor(stimulation condition x pre/post fatigue)analysis of variance(ANOVA)was used to analyze the effects of independent variables on the mechanical properties of the muscles and α-motoneuron conduction characteristics.Results After fatigue,voluntary activation(VA),maximal H-reflex(Hmax),maximal M-wave(Mmax),and dorsiflexor and plantar flexor MVIC torques in both groups were significantly reduced compared with pre-fatigue levels(P<0.05).However,compared to the real stimulation group,the sham stimulation group showed a more significant decline in VA and plantar flexor MVIC torque(P<0.05).Conclusions A continuous 5-day HD-tDCS intervention can effectively increase α-motoneuron activity at the spinal segment.It can also exert an inhibitory effect on reducing information transmission capacity at the peripheral neuromuscular junction under the ankle dorsi-plantarflexion fatigue task.

Sports fatigue of the lower limbs is one of the important factors affecting sports performance. How to improve the anti-fatigue ability of the lower limbs during endurance exercise is the focus of the research field of human sports biomechanics. This study systematically reviewed the relevant literature on transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) intervention on lower limb endurance performance, summarized the effect of tDCS on lower limb endurance performance, and analyzed the influencing factors and potential mechanisms. The results showed that: tDCS intervention has a significant effect on the endurance performance of the whole lower limbs, but there is no unified conclusion on the effect on the endurance performance of the knee joint. The researchers deem that tDCS can increase the excitability of the primary motor cortex and reduce the activation of the supplementary motor area and the premotor area to producing a lower rating of perceived exertion, but cannot affect the perception of exercise-induced pain, and stimulation protocols varied across studies, which may be partly responsible. This study can provide a theoretical basis for exploring the central mechanism of tDCS to improve endurance performance, formulating rehabilitation and sports training programsfor different groups of people, and developing new stimulation equipment to enhance the human body’s anti fatigue ability.

Objective:To investigate the clinical practice of chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) in maintenance hemodialysis patients in Shanghai, and to better understand the changes of clinical practice for CKD-MBD.Methods:Sixty-four hospitals with qualified dialysis center in Shanghai were selected for questionnaire survey as of March 2019. The survey questionnaire included the number of hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients, the implementation of CKD-MBD guidelines, the learning of CKD-MBD guidelines, the detection and distribution of CKD-MBD biochemical indicators, the treatment of hyperphosphatemia, the treatment of secondary heperparathyroidism (SHPT) and renal bone disease, and the concentration of calcium ion in dialysate. The results were compared with previous survey data in 2011.Results:There were sixty-three hospitals included in this study, with 10 168 maintenance hemodialysis patients and 4 610 maintenance peritoneal dialysis patients in Shanghai. 84.1%(53/63) hospitals implemented the guidelines smoothly, which increased by 28.5% compared with the rate (55.6%) of 2011. The successful implementation rates for guidelines in secondary and tertiary hospitals were 83.3%(25/30) and 84.8%(28/33) , which increased by 44.0% and 11.7% respectively (39.3% of secondary hospitals and 73.1% of tertiary hospitals in 2011). All hospitals carried out the detection for serum calcium and phosphorus. The rate for parathyroid hormone (PTH), total alkaline phosphatase (AKP), bone specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP), 25-hydroxy vitamin D[25(OH)D], and other bone metabolism-related biomarkers were 98.4%(62/63), 90.5%(57/63), 19.0%(12/63), 90.5%(57/63) and 42.9%(27/63), respectively; coronary artery CT, lumbar lateral X-ray plain, echocardiography, bone mineral density, and vascular ultrasound were carried out in 68.3%(43/63), 74.6%(47/63), 100.0%(63/63), 68.3%(43/63)and 69.8%(44/63), respectively. Compared with 2011, the proportion of detection for PTH, AKP, BAP, 25(OH)D, coronary artery CT, lumbar lateral film and echocardiography increased by 2.1%, 1.6%, 0.5%, 47.9%, 14.6%, 20.9% and 1.9%, respectively. The proportion of patients with serum phosphorus ranging in 0.80-1.45 mmol/L(KDIGO guideline), serum phosphorus ranging in 0.80-1.78 mmol/L(KDOQI guideline), calcium ranging in 2.10-2.54 mmol/L, and PTH ranging in 150-600 ng/L were 37.0%(3 323/8 969), 50.7%(4 571/9 018), 60.2%(5 568/9 244) and 33.2%(3 018/9 087). Compared with 2011(39.6%, 53.5% and 34.1%), the proportion of patients with ideal serum phosphorus (0.80-1.78 mmol/L) and calcium (2.10-2.54 mmol/L) levels increased by 11.1% and 6.7% respectively, and the proportion with PTH 150-300 ng/L decreased by 0.9%. The proportion of hospitals for using non-calcium phosphate binders (lanthanum carbonate from 1.9% to 87.3% and sevelamer carbonate from 14.8% to 63.5%) and surgical treatment (from 38.9% to 68.3%) for SHPT dramatically increased.Conclusions:Through the availability of medicine increases, and nephrologists gain deeper understanding in management and treatment of CKD-MBD, the detection rate for CKD-MBD indicators and the eligible rate have significantly improved compared with those in 2011. However, the comprehensive management of CKD-MBD in Shanghai still faces great challenges. It is still necessary to further improve eligible rate for serum phosphorus and iPTH, so as to provide more evidences and management strategies for integrated management of end-stage renal disease and prevention of abnormal calcium and phosphorus metabolism in patients.
