ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the effects of respiratory training on pulmonary and motor function for patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods:From January, 2018 to November, 2019, 60 inpatients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease from the Second Rehabilitation Hospital of Shanghai were randomly divided into control group (n = 30) and experimental group (n = 30). All the patients accepted routine rehabilitation, while the experimental group accepted respiratory training with Power Breathe in addition. They were measured the pulmonary function, and assessed with Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) part II and III, and modified Barthel Index (MBI) before and four weeks after treatment. Results:The scores of UPDRS II and III, and MBI improved in both groups after treatment (|t| > 2.550, P < 0.05), while the forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) and maximum expiratory flow rate at 50% vital capacity (MEF50) increased in the experimental group (|t| > 2.838, P < 0.01), but did not in the control group (|t| < 1.058, P > 0.05). FVC, FEV1, MEF50, MBI score and UPDRS II score improved more in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 2.191, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Respiratory training can improve pulmonary function for patients with Parkinson's disease, to further improve their activities of daily living. No synergistic effect is found on motor function.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the prevalence and influencing factors of anxiety and depression among pregnant women in Jianyang City. Methods Convenience sampling method was used to select 322 pregnant women in Jianyang Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Jianyang City. The depression and anxiety of the participants were measured with self-rating anxiety scale(SAS) and self-rating depression scale(SDS)，and the degree of social support was measured with social support rating scale (SSRS). Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between anxiety, depression and social support. The chi square ( 2) test and the non-conditional Logistic regression model were used to analyze the influencing factors of anxiety and depression. Results Anxiety rate and depression rate of pregnant women in Jianyang city were 5.3% and 5.6% respectively. There was a negative correlation between anxiety, depression and social support (P<0.05). Absence of prenatal examination (OR=4.554, 95% CI: 1.063-19.510) was a risk factor for anxiety among pregnant women in Jianyang City. Late pregnancy (OR=5.381, 95% CI: 1.422-20.363) and medium degree of social support (OR=4.150, 95% CI: 1.198-14.375) were risk factors for depression among pregnant women in Jianyang City. Junior high school (OR=0.015, 95% CI: 0.001-0.275), high school or technical secondary school (OR=0.004, 95% CI: 0.001-0.128), junior college or above (OR=0.053, 95% CI: 0.003-0.851) were protective factors for depression. Conclusions The prevelance of anxiety and depression in pregnant women cannot be ignored. It is important to carry out mental health intervention according to the above factors.
