ObjectiveTo investigate the present situation of input, output, outcome and impact of all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia in China, and analyze how the input predict the output, outcome and impact. MethodsFrom March 1st to April 30th, 2025, a questionnaire survey was conducted on all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia, covering four dimensions: input, output, outcome and impact. A total of 1 365 questionnaires were distributed. The input included four items: laws and policies, human resources, equipment and facilities, and rehabilitation information management. The output included two items: technical paths and benefits/effectiveness. The outcome included three items: coverage rates, rehabilitation interventions and functional results. The impact included two items: health and sustainability. Each item contained several questions, all of which were described in a positive way. Each question was scored from one to five. A lower score indicated that the situation of the community-based rehabilitation station was more in line with the content described in the question. Regression analysis was performed using the total score of each item of input dimension as independent variables, and the total scores of the output, outcome and impact dimensions as dependent variables. ResultsA total of 1 262 valid questionnaires were collected. The mean values of input, output, outcome and impact of community-based rehabilitation stations were 1.827 to 1.904, with coefficient of variation of 45.892% to 49.239%. The regression analysis showed that, rehabilitation information management, human resources, and laws and policies significantly predicted the output dimension (R² = 0.910, P < 0.001). Meanwhile, all four items in the input dimension predicted both the outcome (R² = 0.850, P < 0.001) and impact dimensions (R² = 0.833, P < 0.001). ConclusionInput, output, outcome and impact of the community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia were generally in line with the content of the questions, although some imbalances were observed. Additionally, the input of community-based rehabilitation stations could significantly predict their output, outcome and impact.

Objective To explore the biomechanical safety of applying traditional Chinese orthopedic manipulation therapy after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion(ACDF)surgery,so as to provide a theoretical basis for clinical treatment in biomechanics.Methods Based on CT data,a three-dimensional finite element model of the normal C0-T1 cervical spine was established,and an ACDF postoperative finite element model of the C5-6 segment was constructed on this basis.Cervical spine rotation manipulation was simulated at the C4 and C7 segments of both models,and the von Mises stresses of the vertebral body,bilateral facet joints,intervertebral discs,and internal fixation system under manipulation loading of the C4 and C7 segments in both models were compared and analyzed.Results When the C4 segment was manipulated,the stress on the C5,C6,and C7 vertebral bodies in the ACDF postoperative model decreased by 12.3％,11.5％,and 26.4％,compared to the normal model.The stress on the left facet joints of the C4-5,C5-6,and C6-7 segments decreased by 12.3％,58.8％,and 15.4％,and the stress on the right facet joints decreased by 16.6％,92.1％,and 17.2％.The stress on the C4-5 and C6-7 segments decreased by 13.2％and 4.0％,while the maximum stress of the fusion cage,titanium plate,and screws in the C5-6 segment were 9.349,111.9,and 300.8 MPa.When the C7 segment was manipulated,the stress on the C4,C5,and C6 vertebral bodies in the ACDF postoperative model increased significantly compared to the normal model,especially the C5 vertebral body,with an increase of nearly 18 times.Except for the stress on the left facet joint of the C4-5 segment increased by 57.7％,the stress on the bilateral facet joints of other segments generally decreased,but the stress on the C4-5 and C6-7 segments increased by 43.2％and 21.7％and the stresses on the fusion cage,titanium plate,and screws in the C5-6 segment were 2.926,205.4,and 256.2 MPa.Conclusions The safety of performing manipulation on the upper vertebral body of the fusion segment after ACDF surgery is relatively high,but performing manipulation on the lower vertebral body of the fusion segment may lead to stress concentration and increase the risk of injury.When postoperative conservative treatment is implemented,the manipulation safety and indications should be considered to avoid operations in high-risk areas,and more precise and safe manipulation intervention treatment should be implemented based on the specific postoperative biomechanical state of the patient.

Objective To explore the biomechanical characteristics of different types of lumbar disc herniation(LDH),and provide a theoretical basis for the clinical classification,diagnosis,and treatment of LDH.Methods A normal lumbar spine model with spinal nerves and four types of LDH models(central type,paracentral type/lateral recess type,intervertebral foramen type,extreme type)were constructed,and the biomechanical characteristics of the intervertebral discs and nerve roots in neutral posture and under six degrees of freedom conditions were analyzed.Results In neutral position,the stress of normal intervertebral disc was carger than that of the herniated intervertebral disc,and the stress ratio of annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus in normal model was greater than that of annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus in herniated models.In neutral position,the disc stress was mainly concentrated at the incisor between the protrusion and normal part,and recruitment occurred at outer edge of the disc.In flexion and extension position,the stress of the herniated intervertebral disc shifted to the right side.The maximum stress of herniated intervertebral disc appeared during right flexion,and the nerve root stress on the right side was carger than that on the left side.The stress of the herniated intervertebral disc during right rotation was slightly lower than that during right flexion,and the stress of nerve root on the right side was smaller than that on the left side.Conclusions The intervertebral disc is important in maintaining lumbar dynamic and static stability and flexibility.Different positions have an obvious effect the intervertebral disc stress.For patients with LDH,forward bending,flexion of the affected side and large extension should be avoided.Appropriate rotation of the affected side can help relieve the symptoms of nerve root compression.

ObjectiveTo investigate the willingness of rehabilitation patients within an urban medical group to accept downward referrals and analyze the influencing factors. MethodsFrom June to October, 2023, a survey was conducted using a simple random sampling method among neurological and orthopedic rehabilitation patients in hospitals within a specific urban medical group. The 2013 version of the Andersen Model was employed to construct a theoretical framework for the willingness of rehabilitation patients to accept downward referrals and influencing factors. Within this framework, a questionnaire was designed using a 5-point Likert scale, comprising three sections including personal characteristics, environmental features and healthcare service utilization choices, totaling 23 questions. A preliminary survey was conducted, and the questionnaire had underwent reliability and validity testing. ResultsA total of 350 questionnaires were collected, with 314 valid questionnaires. The willingness of rehabilitation patients to accept downward referrals was found to be associated with age, rehabilitation specialties, rehabilitation phases, previous experiences with downward referrals, awareness of and perceptions regarding bidirectional referral policies, and understanding and opinions about the urban medical group (χ² > 7.755, P < 0.05). The primary influencing factors were rehabilitation specialties, rehabilitation phases, previous experiences with downward referrals and perceptions of the necessity of bidirectional referral policies (P < 0.05). ConclusionRehabilitation specialties, rehabilitation phases, previous experiences with downward referrals and perceptions of the necessity of bidirectional referral policies are the primary factors that influenced the willingness of rehabilitation patients to accept downward referrals. We should formulate targeted and focused improvement measures based on the specific circumstances and key influencing factors of rehabilitation patients within the urban medical group regarding their willingness to accept downward referrals. Continuously enhancing the proportion of patients willingness to accept downward referrals is essential for the effective implementation of bidirectional referral for rehabilitation patients.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of low dose S-ketamine in analgesia of elderly patients with non-traumatic acute abdomen (NTAA) in emergency department.Methods:This was a randomized controlled trail. From January to August 2021, elderly patients with NTAA in the Emergency Department of the No. 904 Hospital of the Joint Logistic Support Force were selected. Analgesia was administered intravenously with 0.3 mg/kg S-ketamine or 0.1 mg/kg morphine injection for 15 min. Visual analogue score (VAS), respiratory rate, heart rate, non-invasive blood pressure and pulse oxygen saturation were recorded at 15 min, 30 min, 60 min and 90 min. The mini-mental state examination (MMSE) scores were recorded at 90 min after injection. The incidence of salvage analgesia, incidence of adverse reactions and diagnostic accuracy after analgesia were recorded in the two groups. VAS scores and vital signs were compared between the two groups by two-way repeated measures analysis of variance, and multiple comparisons between and within groups were performed.Results:A total of 137 elderly patients with NTAA were selected and randomly divided into two groups: S-ketamine group (SK group, 68 cases) and morphine group (M group, 69 cases). After the exclusion of patients with abscission, 39 cases were included in the SK group and 45 cases in the M group. VAS score of the SK group was significantly lower than that of the M group in 15 min after administration [(3.1±1.8) vs. (4.8±2.2)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.013). There were no significant differences in vital signs and MMSE score between the two groups or within the group at each time point after medication (all P>0.05). However, the incidence of dizziness in the SK group was significantly higher than that in the M group (61.54% vs. 31.11%, P=0.005). Conclusions:Intravenous administration of low dose S-ketamine is not considered to be more effective than morphine in alleviating acute abdominal pain in elderly patients with NTAA. S-ketamine provides not only satisfactory analgesia but also short recovery time and high controllability. S-ketamine is one of the recommended analgesic alternatives of NTAA for elderly patients in emergency.

Objective:To compare the clinical effects of hip arthroplasty through direct anterior approach (DAA) in lateral decubitus in the treatment of hip osteoarthritis caused by Kaschin-Beck disease and congenital acetabular dysplasia.Methods:The prospective study method was used to select the patients who needed hip arthroplasty in the Fourth Department of Orthopedics, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from January 2015 to December 2019. All of them were operated with lateral decubitus DAA. According to the inclusion criteria, they were divided into Kacshin-Beck disease hip osteoarthritis group (group A) and congenital acetabular dysplasia hip osteoarthritis group (group B). Hip Harris score, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) score, visual analogue scale (VAS) score were conducted, and hip abduction angle and flexion angle were measured before surgery, 3, 14 days and 1, 3, and 12 months after surgery.Results:Nineteen and twenty-two patients were included in group A and group B, respectively. All patients successfully completed the surgery. There was no significant difference in Harris score between the two groups before surgery, 3, 14 days, and 1, 12 months after surgery ( P > 0.05). There were no significant differences in WOMAC score, VAS score, hip abduction angle and hip flexion angle between the two groups before surgery and each time point after surgery ( P > 0.05). In the same group, there were significant differences in Harris score, WOMAC score, VAS score, hip abduction angle and hip flexion angle at different time points ( P < 0.001). All postoperative indicators were significantly improved compared with those before surgery. Conclusions:There is no significant difference in the clinical effects of hip arthroplasty through lateral decubitus DAA in the treatment of hip osteoarthritis caused by Kaschin-Beck disease and congenital acetabular dysplasia. This surgical method has good therapeutic effect on both types of hip osteoarthritis.

Objective:To investigate the changes of monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells (M-MDSC) in children with acute Kawasaki disease (KD) and its roles in the immunological pathogenesis of KD.Methods:A total of 38 children with acute KD were enrolled in the present study and 32 age-matched healthy children were selected as control group. The proportions of HLA-DR -CD11b + CD33 + CD15 -CD14 + M-MDSC and CD4 + CD25 + CD127 - regulatory T cells (Treg) in peripheral blood, concentrations of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and expression of arginase-1 (Arg-1), CD39, CD73, CD40, CD40L and CCR5 at protein levels were detected by flow cytometry. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to evaluate the transcription levels of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in M-MDSC and the transcription levels of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated antigen 4 (CTLA4) and lymphocyte-activation gene 3 (LAG3) in Treg. Concentrations of NO, CCL3, CCL4, CCL5, IL-10 and TGF-β in the supernatants of cell culture were measured by ELISA. Results:(1) The proportion of HLA-DR -CD11b + CD33 + CD15 -CD14 + M-MDSC, the concentration of intracellular ROS and the expression of iNOS, CD39 and CD73 in M-MDSC decreased significantly in patients with acute KD as compared with those in the control group ( P<0.05), and the concentrations of NO, IL-10 and TGF-β in culture supernatant of M-MDSC were lower than those in the control group upon lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation for 48 h ( P<0.05). All of the aforementioned indexes restored to some extent after intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy ( P<0.05). No statistical differences were found in Arg-1 expression between healthy controls and patients with KD before or after IVIG therapy ( P<0.05). (2) CD40 expression on M-MDSC was significantly lower in the acute KD group than in the control group ( P<0.05). The concentrations of CCL3, CCL4 and CCL5 in the culture supernatants of M-MDSC were lower in the acute KD group than in the control group after LPS stimulation ( P<0.05). With IVIG treatment, all of the indexes were up-regulated significantly ( P<0.05), although CD40 expression was still lower in the acute KD group than in the control group ( P<0.05). (3) The proportion of CD4 + CD25 + CD127 -Treg and the expression of CTLA4, LAG3, CD40L and CCR5 reduced significantly in patients with acute KD as compared those in healthy controls ( P<0.05), and all increased remarkably after IVIG therapy ( P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between the proportions of M-MDSC and Treg in patients with acute KD ( r=0.58, P<0.05). Conclusions:Insufficiency and impaired function of M-MDSC might be a major cause of immune dysfunction in patients with acute KD.
