ObjectiveTo explore the effect of respiratory training based on core stabilization training on lumbar disc herniation. MethodsFrom January, 2023 to October, 2024, 96 patients with lumbar disc herniation admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University were divided into control group (n = 32), core group (n = 32) and respiratory group (n = 32). All the groups underwent conventional rehabilitation therapy, with core stabilization training in the core group and respiratory training combined with core stabilization training in the respiratory group, additionally, for four weeks. Before and after training, the scores of Visual Analogue Scale, Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) and Oswestry Dysfunction Index (ODI) were compared, the average electromyographic value (AEMG) and root mean square (RMS) value of the multifidus and transversus abdominis were detected by surface electromyography (sEMG); and the thickness of the multifidus and transversus abdominis were measured by musculoskeletal ultrasonography bilaterally. ResultsThe intra-group effect (F > 597.796, P < 0.001), inter-group effect (F > 16.535, P < 0.001) and interaction effect (F > 49.622, P < 0.001) were significant in the scores of VAS, JOA and ODI; which were better in the respiratory group than in the control group and the core group (P < 0.05), and were better in the core group than in the control group (P < 0.001). The intra-group effect (F > 7971.631, P < 0.001), inter-group effect (F > 177.760, P < 0.001) and interaction effect (F > 478.771, P < 0.001) were significant in the thickness of the transversus abdominis and multifidus; which were better in the respiratory group than in the control group and the core group (P < 0.001), and were better in the core group than in the control group (P < 0.001). The intra-group effect (F > 144303.007, P < 0.001), inter-group effect (F > 1495.458, P < 0.001) and interaction effect (F > 3121.361, P < 0.001) were significant in the RMS of the multifidus and transversus abdominis; which were better in the respiratory group than in the control group and the core group (P < 0.001), and were better in the core group than in the control group (P < 0.001). The intra-group effect (F > 1890.532, P < 0.001), inter-group effect (F > 607.132, P < 0.001) and interaction effect (F > 824.923, P < 0.001) were significant in the AEMG of the multifidus and transversus abdominis; which were better in the respiratory group than in the control group and core group (P < 0.001), and were better in the core group than in the control group (P < 0.001). ConclusionCore training combined with respiratory training can more effectively reduce pain and improve dysfunction by enhancing the strength and control of the core muscles， thus improving the quality of life of patients with lumbar disc herniation.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of transcranial combined peripheral magnetic stimu-lation on bladder and voiding ability in patients with NB after spinal cord injury.Methods From September 2023 to October 2024,60 patients with NB after spinal cord injury were chosen from the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University,and were separated into the regular group(n=15),M1 area stimulation group(n=15),sacral nerve root stimulation group(n=15),and combined stimulation group(n=15).The control group underwent conventional rehabilitation treatment,the M1 area stimu-lation group added repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)of the M1 area of the motor cortex,the sacral nerve root stimulation group added repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation(rPMS)of the sacral 3 nerve roots,and the co-stimulation group added rTMS of the M1 area and rPMS of the sacral 3 nerve roots,and the treat-ment was carried out for 4 weeks in total.Urodynamic indices,voiding diaries,and neurogenic bladder symptom scores(NBSS)were assessed before and after therapy in the four groups.Results Before therapy,the differences in maximum bladder capacity,bladder capacity at the time of the first urge to urinate,maximum urine flow rate,residual urine volume,average number of urination per day,average daily urinary output,and NBSS scores of the four groups were not statistically significant when compared with those of the pre-treatment group(P<0.05);after treatment,the maximum bladder capacity,bladder capacity at the time of the first urge to urinate,maximum urine flow rate,residual urine volume,average number of urination per day,average daily urinary output,and NBSS scores were all improved compared with those before treatment(P<0.05);in comparison between the groups,after treatment,the Urodynamic indices,voiding diaries,and NBSS scores of the combined group were better than those of the other three groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Transcranial combined peripheral bidirectional feedback magnetic stimulation therapy can improve urodynamic and voiding symptoms and promote the recovery of bladder and voiding function in patients with NB after spinal cord injury

Objective To explore the effect of robotic training under position limitation on upper limb of patients with shoulder sub-luxation after stroke. Methods From March to December,2023,sixty patients with shoulder subluxation after stroke in the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University were randomized into conventional group(n = 20),robot group(n = 20)and position-limited group(n = 20).All the groups accepted conventional rehabilitation,while the robot group underwent robot training and the position-limited group underwent robot training under position limitation,for four weeks.Before and after treatment,Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities(FMA-UE)and modified Bar-thel Index(MBI)were used for evaluation,surface electromyography(sEMG)was used to measure the average electromyography(AEMG)and root mean square(RMS)of posterior deltoid fasciculus and supraspinatus during contraction,and musculoskeletal ultrasonography was used to determine the distance of acromion-greater tuber-osity(AGT)of the affected side. Results After treatment,FMA-UE score,MBI score,AEMG,RMS and the distance of AGT improved in all the groups(|t|>10.850,P<0.001),and all the indexes were optimal in the position-limited group(F>42.031,P<0.001). Conclusion Robotic training for upper limb under postural limitation can further improve upper limb function and sub-luxation status,activities of daily living,and peri-shoulder muscle in patients with shoulder subluxation after stroke.
