Freezing of gait is a common gait disorder in Parkinson disease (PD), which is highly disabling, situational and therapeutically challenging. At present, there is no clear and effective intervention method. In recent ten years, exercise training based on cognitive-motor dual tasks has been more and more used in the intervention treatment of freezing of gait of PD patients, and achieved certain clinical results. The muscle-brain crosstalk effect of exercise training promoting muscle secretory factors is crucial for freezing of gait rehabilitation of PD. There are differences in the effects of cognitive-motor dual tasks of different types and loads on gait, but the specific training types and loads and mechanism of action still need to be further elucidated. This paper focuses on the research progress of muscle-brain crosstalk mechanism in cognitive-motor interference effect of freezing of gait in PD patients, aiming to providing a new theoretical perspective for clinical cognitive-motor training intervention of freezing of gait in PD patients.

The grading of evidence is an important factor in clinical decision-making. The current evidence grading system based on western medicine is limited in the clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), therefore we propose the solutions to the development of grading system for TCM interventional evidence, following the international evidence grading standards, taking into considerations of the unique characteristics of TCM practice, based on the Grades of recommendation, assessment, development and evaluation (GARDE) evaluation system, and integrating with grading system regarding TCM classical literature and empirical evidence from modern famous doctors. The evidence from classical literature is suggested to be evaluated from three aspects including source of ancient medical records, comprehensive of treatment details, and the inheritance. The qualification of famous doctors, content integrity, and inheritance of experiences will be used to evaluate the evidence from famous doctors' experience. The multi-sourced evidence such as TCM classical literature, experience of modern famous doctors, and modern researches is mainly integrated in a qualitative way, and the overall level of evidence of TCM interventions will be graded consistently with the GRADE system based on modern research. The evidence from classical literature and modern famous doctors' experience will be assessed and considered as supplementary evidence, which will make the evaluation of clinical evidence more objectively and comprehensively, thereby guiding clinical practice further.

Objective:To investigate the value of cellular immune status before initial 131I treatment for predicting treatment response in young and middle-aged patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Methods:From March 2018 to April 2019, 150 young and middle-aged patients with PTC (46 males, 104 females, age (40.0±9.8) years) who underwent total thyroidectomy and neck lymph node dissection in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were enrolled retrospectively. All patients underwent radioablation 1-2 months after operation, and the serum lymphocyte subsets (CD3 + , CD4 + , CD8 + , CD4/CD8) as well as natural killer (NK) cells were detected 1 d before the initial 131I treatment. Patients were divided into excellent response (ER) group and non-ER group according to the response of 6-12 months after 131I treatment. Clinicopathological characteristics, preablative stimulated thyroglobulin (psTg), initial 131I dose and lymphocyte subsets that might affect the response to 131I treatment were analyzed (independent-sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test, multiple logistic regression analysis). ROC curve analysis was used to evaluate the predictive value of significant factors for non-ER. Results:Of 150 patients, 84 cases were in ER group (56.00%), and 66 cases (44.00%) were in non-ER group. Age ( z=-2.86, P=0.004), M stage ( χ2=13.64, P<0.001), psTg ( z=-8.94, P<0.001), initial 131I dose ( z=-7.60, P<0.001), CD4 + ( t=2.50, P=0.014), CD4/CD8 ( z=-2.22, P=0.027) of the two groups were significantly different. Multivariate analysis showed that psTg (odds ratio ( OR)=1.27, 95% CI: 1.16-1.40, P<0.001) and CD4/CD8 ( OR=0.39, 95% CI: 0.15-0.99, P=0.048) were independent factors for predicting 131I treatment response. The cut-off values of psTg and CD4/CD8 for predicting non-ER were 6.78 μg/L and 1.67, respectively. Conclusions:Cellular immune status before initial 131I treatment may predict treatment response in young and middle-aged patients with PTC. It indicates non-ER response when Tg is higher than 6.78 μg/L and CD4/CD8 is lower than 1.67.

Objective To explore cognitive impairment and related factors in patients with Wilson disease (WD) and to screen the risk factors of cognitive impairment in order to provide evidence for clinical intervention. Methods The Chinese Version Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination-III (ACE-III-C) was used to assess the cognitive function. The WD patients with cognitive impairment were analyzed the difference between those with non-cognitive disorders in the Young scale, Baethel scale and biochemical indicators. Risk factors for cognitive impairment in WD patients were analyzed by multiple linear regression. Results Cognitive impairment occurred in 43 (59.7%) of 72 patients with WD. ACE-III-C total score, attention, memory, language fluency, visual spatial factor scores, Young scores, Barthel scores and serum copper levels were significantly different between patients with cognitive impairment and patients with non-cognitive impairment (P<0.01). Linear regression analysis showed that serum copper levels were the most important risk factors for ACE-III-C total score and cognitive subfields (P<0.01). Serum zinc levels as a secondary risk factor of language fluency and visual space (P<0.05). Age-related participation affected language fluency (P<0.05). Conclusions Serum copper and zinc levels may be the main risk factors of cognitive impairment. Modulation of serum copper and zinc levels may be the key for intervention to treat cognitive impairment in WD patients.
