RESUMEN
Cognitive impairment after infectious meningitis seriously affects the activities of daily living for survivors. There has been lack of systematic researches on the cognitive impact of infectious meningitis so far, it is not clear how to early identify and evaluate the cognitive impairment after meningitis, how to properly carry out early rehabilitative intervention to improve the activities of daily living and to reduce the social and economic burden of patients. This article reviews the characteristics, evaluation methods and rehabilitative interventions of cognitive impairment in patients after infectious meningitis, to provide reference for clinical application.
RESUMEN
Objective:To translate the English version and cross-cultural adaptation of Readiness for Return-To-Work Scale (RRTW) into Chinese and tested the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of RRTW in young and middle-aged stroke patients.Methods:RRTW was translated into Chinese with standard translation-retroversion. From August to December 2020, 235 stroke patients in the First Affiliated Hospital, College of Medicine, Zhejiang University were recruited by convenient sampling. The scale was tested by the reliability and validity.Results:The Chinese version of RRTW for stroke was composed of two parts: The first part was divided into four dimensions, with a total of 13 entries; For the unworked stroke population, the second part was divided into two dimensions, with a total of nine entries for the reworked stroke population. The content validity index (CVI) for each item was from 0.875 to 1.000. The total CVI for all items was 0.994. The Pearson correlation coefficient between dimension and scale was from 0.523 to 0.876. Four common factors were obtained from the first part and the cumulative contribution rate was 62.563%. Two common factors were obtained from the second part and the cumulative contribution rate was 49.908%. The Cronbach α coefficient in the first part was 0.760 and in the second part was 0.693.Conclusions:The Chinese version of RRTW for stroke patients has good reliability and validity, which can be used to assess the readiness level of stroke patients to return to work in Chinese society.
RESUMEN
@#The Notch signaling pathway plays a pivotal role in the process of neurogenesis in central nervous system. It not only maintains the appropriate number and proportion of neurons and glial cells in the growth and development of embryo, but also regulates the injured neural stem/progenitor cells to differentiate into neurons/glial cells of the adult nervous system, promoting the repair of the nervous system.
