Serious motor dysfunction is the leading cause of disability in individuals with stroke. Rehabilitation is the most effective intervention. Taking “stroke” “cerebrovascular accident” “rehabilitation” “motor dysfunction” and other key words, the relevant studies published from January 2015 to January 2020 were searched in Web of Science database to explore the advance in rehabilitation of motor dysfunction in individuals with stroke based on basic and clinical researches. Basic researches mainly focused on the mechanism of neural plasticity, neural loop and various intervention measures, and clinical researches mainly focused on novel rehabilitation intervention technologies for motor dysfunction in individuals with stroke. In addition, mechanism and rehabilitation are still two hotpots in the field of the disease. This paper reviews the search results in order to provide reference for subsequent relevant clinical work and scientific research.
Objective To investigate the clinical application value of GeneXpert Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB)/ rifampin (RIF) in urine samples for tuberculosis diagnosis. Methods The patients with clinically highly suspected tuberculosis admitted to West China Hospital of Sichuan University between January 1, 2018 and June 1, 2023 were selected retrospectively. The diagnostic efficacy of urine GeneXpert MTB/RIF detection, such as sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value, were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate its clinical value in the diagnosis of tuberculosis. Correlation analysis was further conducted to explore the correlation between positive levels of GeneXpert MTB/RIF in urine samples and laboratory test indicators. Results A total of 400 patients were included. Among them, 163 cases were in the clinical tuberculosis group and 237 cases were in the clinical non tuberculosis group. In the clinical tuberculosis group, 112 cases were urogenital tuberculosis patients and 51 cases were non-urogenital tuberculosis patients. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of urine GeneXpert MTB/RIF in the diagnosis of tuberculosis were 55.2%, 97.5%, 93.8% and 76.0%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of urine GeneXpert MTB/RIF in the diagnosis of urogenital tuberculosis were 65.2%, 92.0%, 76.0% and 87.2%, respectively, and the diagnostic sensitivity was further improved. Correlation analysis showed that the positive degree of urine GeneXpert MTB/RIF was correlated with the levels of hemoglobin, serum total protein, blood serum albumin, and other indicators. Conclusions Urine GeneXpert MTB/RIF detection offers high sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of tuberculosis, especially in urogenital tuberculosis, which is helpful for the early and rapid diagnosis of tuberculosis patients. The positive degree reported by the GeneXpert MTB/RIF in urine may indicate disease severity.
In recent years, the prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) has been remarkably increasing. Infections caused by CRE have significantly increased the burden on patients both medically and economically, and the CRE often leads to outbreaks of healthcare-associated infections. It has now become a global public health concern. Consequently, international organizations and academic societies/associations, including the World Health Organization, have developed corresponding prevention and control guidelines. This article provides a detailed introduction to the background, principles, key understandings, and implementation recommendations of China’s Standard for Prevention and Control of Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (WS/T 826-2023). The aim is to enhance the recognition of healthcare workers and medical administrators to prevent and control CRE and to provide detailed technical guidance for healthcare facilities in responding to the spread of CRE, thus ensuring medical quality and patient safety.
Objective To study the clinical protective effect of hemoperfusion combined with hemofiltration on inflammatory reaction of hyperlipidemia severe acute pancreatitis (HLSAP). Methods Thirty-seven patients with HLSAP treated between January 2012 and December 2014 were selected and divided into three groups based on different treatments. Thirteen patients were allocated into hemoperfusion combined with continuous veno-venous hemofiltration group (HP+CVVH group) and treated with hemoperfusion combined with hemofiltration; 11 patients were allocated into continuous veno-venous hemofiltration group (CVVH group) and treated with hemofiltration; and all the other patients were allocated into control group and treated with conventional treatment. The levels of blood triglyceride, C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8) and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE)Ⅱ score of the patients after treatment were observed. The hospital stay, organ dysfunction rate and mortality of the patients were measured. Results Compared with the control group, the levels of blood triglyceride, C-reactive protein, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 and APACHE Ⅱ score of the patients in the HP+CVVH group and CVVH group were both significantly reduced 72 hours after therapy (P<0.05). However, the levels of blood triglyceride, C-reactive protein, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 and APACHE Ⅱ score of the patients in the HP+CVVH group were significantly lower than those in the CVVH group at the same time point (P<0.05). The hospital stay of the patients in the HP+CVVH group and CVVH group was significantly shorter than that in the control group (P<0.05). Compared with the CVVH group, the hospital stay of patients in the HP+CVVH group was significantly shorter (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in organ dysfunction rate and mortality among the three groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Hemoperfusion combined with hemofiltration is an effective method for HLSAP by cleaning the inflammatory mediators availably and inhibiting the excessive inflammatory reaction.
Objective To evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS) in preoperative anxiety in patients with local anesthesia. Methods From May to December 2020, a convenient sampling method was used to conduct an APAIS questionnaire survey on patients undergoing percutaneous renal biopsy in the Department of Nephrology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, and the reliability and validity of the scale were analyzed. ResultsA total of 460 questionnaires were distributed and 444 valid questionnaires were returned, with a valid response rate of 96.5%. The Cronbach α of APAIS was 0.896, the Guttman split-half reliability was 0.811, and the content validity index was 0.891. The model fit was 12.122 for the chi-square fit index/degree of freedom, 0.916 for the goodness-of-fit index, 0.902 for the value-added fit index, 0.079 for the root mean square error of approximation, and 0.946 for the comparative fit index. The APAIS anxiety subscale score was positively correlated with the 7-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale score (r=0.518, P<0.001). Conclusion The APAIS has good reliability and validity for evaluating the level of preoperative anxiety in patients with local anesthesia, but the application of the scale in other conditions requires further testing.
ObjectiveTo detect the development of retinal neovascularization (NV) induced by metabolic acidosis in neonatal rats and investigate the relationship between the occurrence of NV and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). MethodsA total of 425 newborn Sprague-Dawley rats in experimental group underwent tubal feeding of NH4Cl (535 mg/kg) with the concentration of (50 mg/ml) (twice per day) from the 2nd day after the birth for 6 days and followed by a period of recovery. Additional 150 neonatal rats were in the control group without the tubal feeding. The rats were executed at the 3rd, 5th, 8th, 10th, 13th, 20th day after birth respectively. The retinal vessels were evaluated through retinal stretched preparation andadenosine diphosphatase (ADPase) staining; VEGF in retina was detected by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).ResultsIn the experimental group, the incidence of retinal NV at the 3rd, 5th, 8th, 10th, 13th, 20th day after birth was 0%,9%,26%,55%,19%, and 0% respectively. At the 3rd day, the expression of VEGF protein was lower in experimental group [(101.1±14.2 )pg/mg] than that in the control group [(133.2±15.9) pg/mg](P=0.004), while at the 8th day it was higher in experimental group[(98.4±19.2) pg/mg]than that in the control group[(78.1±8.7) pg/mg](P=0.028). There was no significant difference between the two groups at the 5th, 10th, 13th, and 20th day (Pgt;0.05). ConclusionsMetabolic acidosis may induce NV by injuring the developing retinal vessels. Retinal NV induced by acidosis relates to VEGF. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2005,21:296-299)
Skeletal muscle and metabolic function are important factors affecting the health status of the elderly. Branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) can improve muscle recovery, reduce muscle soreness after exercise, and BCAA can also enhance metabolic health, helping to regulate blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity in the elderly. In addition, BCAA can improve cognitive function, reducing the risk of age-related cognitive decline. This article reviews the relationship between BCAA and aging, skeletal muscle, and metabolic diseases, explaining how BCAA can support and promote muscle mass and function in the elderly, as well as have a positive impact on metabolic health and cognitive function.
ObjectiveTo explore the current status of treatment adherence in patients with chronic kidney disease without dialysis and to analyze its influencing factors.MethodsThe patients who visited the Outpatient Department of Nephrology of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from September to December 2020 were taken as the research objects. Self-designed general information questionnaire, treatment adherence questionnaire, physician-patient communication satisfaction, health information seeking behavior questionnaire, and physician-patient concordance questionnaire were used to investigate, and path analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of treatment adherence.ResultsA total of 203 valid questionnaires were obtained. Treatment adherence score was (21.69±2.42) points, self-reported health status was (2.48±0.91) points, physician-patient concordance was (20.39±2.70) points, physician-patient communication satisfaction was (67.73±5.52) points, and health information seeking behavior was (13.17±2.65) points. Health information seeking behavior (r=0.214, P=0.002), physicians-patient concordance (r=0.494, P<0.001), physician-patient communication satisfaction (r=0.229, P=0.001) were positively correlated with treatment adherence. Self-reported health status was negatively correlated with treatment adherence (r=?0.225, P=0.001). Path analysis showed that physicians-patient concordance was the most influencing factor of treatment adherence (total effect=0.474).ConclusionHealth information-seeking behavior and physicians-patient concordance are important factors affecting treatment adherence in chronic kidney disease patients without dialysis. In order to improve treatment adherence of chronic kidney disease patients, healthcare providers can provide various ways to provide information, which can help make more disease-related health knowledge available to patients. Moreover, healthcare workers should also further explore ways to improve the concordance related to reaching agreement between doctors and patients on medical and treatment options.
