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 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.

Objective To investigate the effects of clesmatine on the myelination and neural oscillation-related firing activities during sleep in the hippocampus of adult APP/PS1 mice.Methods Oral administration of clemastine in drinking water was given to APP/PS1 mice for 3 months to enhance myelination in adulthood.Based on the treatment regimens,the mice were randomly assigned into APP/PS1 group,APP/PS1+clemastine group,and wild-type(WT)group.Local field potentials combined with three-dimensional acceleration of the head and neck were employed to determine the brain states,that is,wakefulness,non-rapid eye movement(NREM)sleep,REM sleep.In vivo multi-electrode arrays were utilized to continuously monitor neuronal firing activities in the dorsal hippocampus across the 3 sleep states.Results ① Oral clemastine administration via drinking water significantly increased MBP+protein expression levels in APP/PS1+Clemastine mice than the APP/PS1 controls(P<0.001).② Clemastine administration did not alter the time proportions of NREM sleep,REM sleep and wakefulness during the daytime phase in APP/PS1 mice(Ps>0.05).③ Clemastine administration obviously reduced the mean firing rate of hippocampal pyramidal cells(P<0.05)while increasing that of hippocampal interneurons(P<0.05)in APP/PS1 mice.④ Clemastine administration increased the occurrence rate of hippocampal sharp wave-ripple(SWR)oscillations during NREM sleep and specifically reduced the firing rate of pyramidal cells during SWR oscillations in APP/PS1 mice(P<0.05).⑤ Clemastine administration had no significant effect on the hippocampal neuronal firing activity during theta oscillation in REM sleep in APP/PS1 mice(Ps>0.05).Conclusion Clemastine administration not only enhances the adult myelination,but also rescues both the SWRs and associated hippocampal neuronal firing during NREM sleep in APP/PS1 mice.

Objective:To investigate the value of CT imaging radiomics in predicting the therapeutic effect of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for pancreatic duct stones.Methods:The clinical data of 167 patients with pancreatic duct stones treated with ESWL in the Department of Gastroenterology, the First People's Hospital of Hangzhou, Westlake University from July 2016 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into complete lithotripsy group (stone diameter ≤3 mm, n=94) and incomplete lithotripsy group (stone diameter>3 mm, n=73), according to the size of the largest residual stone after the first ESWL treatment. ITK SNAP software was used to delineate the images of pancreatic duct stones, and the artificial intelligence tool kit developed by United Shadow Company was used to extract the image radiomics characteristics. The pancreatic duct stone data set was randomly assigned into the training set ( n=118) and the test set ( n=29) in the ratio of 8∶2, and the absolute maximum normalization treatment was used, followed by peacekeeping selection through the minimum absolute contraction and selection operator (Lasso) to calculate the CT image radiomics score, and the logistic regression classifier was used to construct the ESWL treatment effect prediction model of pancreatic duct stones. Receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC) were plotted, and the area under the curve (AUC) and sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were calculated to assess the performance of the prediction model. Decision curve analysis was used to evaluate the clinical value of CT radiomics score in the diagnosis of ESWL for pancreatic duct stones. Results:A total of 2 287 imaging radiomics characteristics were extracted, and 11 optimal imaging radiomics characteristics were finally screened by Lasso regression dimensionality reduction to establish a prediction model for ESWL treatment effect of pancreatic duct stones. The AUC values of the training set and the test set were 0.89 and 0.87, respectively, and the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 82% and 79%, 82% and 82%, 82% and 80%, respectively. The AUC value in the independent validation set was 0.90, and the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 78%, 90%, and 85%, respectively. The results of decision curve analysis showed that when the probability of ESWL efficacy in the diagnosis of pancreatic duct stones with CT image radiomics score was >0.05, the use of CT image radiomics score in the diagnosis of ESWL efficacy in pancreatic duct stones was more beneficial to patients in clinical practice than not.Conclusions:The treatment effect of ESWL for pancreatic duct stones can be predicted by CT imaging radiomics model.
