ABSTRACT
@#Objective Gait analysis plays an important role in the description of the site and degree of injury in the lower limbs, and symmetry is an important indicator of gait characteristics. The aim of this study is to quantitatively describe gait information and its asymmetry in three-dimensional space, dig deeper into gait information and improve the analysis of abnormal gait characteristics.Methods The information about the change of coronal-sagittal plane angle in different parts was obtained based on the inertial gait sensor, and the gait space vector was inverted to build the movement curve and form a motion symmetry detection method based on three-dimensional space angle vector distance. The characteristics of normal subjects (control group) and the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture patients (patients group) were analyzed from July, 2017 to January, 2018, and its effectiveness was verified.Results There was a better discrimination effect in the calf, thigh and knee asymmetry, etc., between the control group and the patient group (P<0.05). The characteristics of the calf space motion vector were highest among the control group and the patient group, and the discrimination was relatively stable, and not various with gender, age, height or body mass index.Conclusion The time-coronal-sagittal vector diagrams of left and right limbs were obtained by inertial sensor and the average of the square of the Euclidean distances in space at the selected gait cycle time points was calculated in three-dimensional space, which could be used as a gait asymmetry analysis method.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical value of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT)in diagnosis of internal abdominal hernia (IAH).Methods The MSCT findings in 1 5 patients with IAH confirmed by surgery were retrospectively analyzed.Results MSCT showed intestinal obstruction in 14 patients with strangulating intestinal obstruction in 8.The typical features of MSCT were as follows:translocated position of intestines (occupying effect),closed loop intestinal obstruction (gathered intestinal loops with different forms),assembled,expanded and translocated blood vessels of mesenteries,and thickened intestinal walls with ischemic edema and abnormal density.Surgical results showed paraduodenal hernia in 2,transomental hernia in 2,transmesenteric hernia in 5,ankylenteron strap hernias in 4,pericecal hernia in 1 and hernia through the Douglas fossa in 1,Intestinal obstruction in 14 and strangulating intestinal obstruction in 8 were also confirmed by surgery.The CT findings of IAH were correlated with the surgical results,and the accurate rate of grading of intestinal obstruction with CT was also consistent with the surgical results (Kappa=0.758,t=3.462,P=0.001).Conclusion IAH can be diagnosed accurately by MSCT in most patients,MSCT is helpful for guiding the surgical programs.
