RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the psychological effect of physical function dependence on maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients and their primary family caregivers.Methods:The study was a cross-sectional survey. The MHD patients in the hemodialysis centre, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from March 2022 to June 2022 were enrolled. The patients' demographics and laboratory data were collected. Katz and Lawton-Brody questionnaires were used to assess patients' physical function, and Five Item Mental Health Inventory (MHI-5) was used to evaluate the psychological conditions of the patients and their primary family caregivers. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of MHI-5 scores of the patients and their primary family caregivers.Results:A total of 116 patients were included, with 61 males and 55 females. There were 47 patients (40.5%) with physical function dependence. In the physical function dependence group, serum albumin ( t=-2.512, P=0.013), MHI-5 scores of patients and their primary family caregivers ( t=-8.461, P < 0.001; t=-8.533, P < 0.001) and male ratio ( χ2=8.467, P=0.002) were significantly lower, and the age ( t=9.754, P < 0.001) and the proportions of hypertension ( χ2=20.421, P < 0.001), diabetes ( χ2=10.470, P=0.002), cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases ( χ2=9.898, P=0.003) were significantly higher than those in the normal physical function group. The incidence of mental disorders in MHD patients was 39.7%(46/116), and the incidence of mental disorders in the physical function dependence group was significantly higher than that in the normal physical function group [72.3%(34/47) vs. 17.4%(12/69), χ2=35.275, P < 0.001]. The incidence of mental disorders in the primary family caregivers was 32.8%(38/116), and the incidence of mental disorders in the primary family caregivers of physical function dependence group was significantly higher than that in the normal physical function group [66.0%(31/47) vs. 10.1%(7/69), χ2=39.536, P < 0.001]. The incidence of mental disorders in the primary family caregivers of MHD patients who were not spouses was significantly higher than that of spouses [46.0%(29/63) vs. 17.0%(9/53), χ2=11.028, P=0.001], and in physical function dependence group, the incidence of mental disorders in non-spouses was significantly higher than that in spouses [80.6%(25/31) vs. 37.5%(6/16), χ2=8.749, P=0.003]. Multiple linear analysis showed that bathing ( β=-5.182, P=0.015), doing laundry ( β=-7.053, P < 0.001), taking medication ( β=-8.680, P=0.003), and female patients ( β=-2.982, P=0.030) were the influencing factors of MHI-5 scores decline in MHD patients. Bathing ( β=-4.404, P=0.032), preparing meals ( β=-3.954, P=0.041), managing money ( β=-5.067, P=0.021), and female patients ( β=-2.466, P=0.042) were the influencing factors of MHI-5 scores decline in primary family caregivers. Conclusions:The incidence of physical function dependence in MHD patients is high, and its manifestations and influencing factors are diverse. The incidence of mental disorders in MHD patients and their primary family caregivers is also high, especially in patients with physical function dependence and non- spouse family caregivers. Clinicians should pay attention to and assess the physical function dependence of MHD patients as early as possible, and intervene in time. At the same time, they should also pay attention to the mental health of MHD patients and their primary family caregivers.
RESUMEN
@#AIM: To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of the foldable capsular vitreous body(FCVB)implantation in the treatment of severe ocular trauma and also explore the effect of ciliary body function on the FCVB implantation. <p>METHODS: This study retrospectively analyzed 10 cases(10 eyes)with severe ocular trauma which had accepted FCVB implantation performed in Affiliated Xiaolan People's Hospital, Southern Medical University from January 2018 to July 2020. Ciliary body function was judged by score which was made by preoperative examination results. The case which scored 5 or less was studied as ciliary failure: 8 eyes scored more than 5, 2 eyes scored 5 or less. Followed up for 1-31mo, the postoperative best corrected visual acuity(BCVA)and intraocular pressure, anterior chamber, retinal reattachment, FCVB condition and adverse reactions were observed. <p>RESULTS: The operations of 9 eyes with aphakia eyes were successful. Iridodialysis occurred during the operation of 1 eye with lens. Retinal reattachment was found in all 10 eyes, and the position of FCVB in all patients was proper. There was no severe adverse reactions. Comparing the preoperative and postoperative BCVA and intraocular pressure, the difference was not statistically significant(<i>P</i>>0.05). In the group(8 eyes)that ciliary body function scored more than 5, 2 eyes had a supplementary operation individually, 1 eye underwent 2 supplementary operations. In the group(2 eyes)which scored 5 or less, supplementary operations were performed 5 times in 1 eye, only 1 time in the other one case. <p>CONCLUSION: Implantation of FCVB is a safe option to treat severe ocular trauma. But the postoperative visual acuity cannot be improved. The ciliary body function associates with persistent intraocular hypotension and shallow anterior chamber after FCVB implantation.
RESUMEN
Objective To systematically evaluate the effect of early mobilization on the physical function of patients in intensive care unit (ICU). Methods The randomized controlled trials (RCT) about early intervention in ICU patients were retrieved from the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Wed of Science, Medline, CBM, CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang database, all of which were published literatures from the establishment to October 2018. Early activities were carried out in the intervention group, while only routine nursing was carried out in the control group. Outcome measures included the medical research council score (MRC-Score), physical function ICU test (PFIT), independent walking ability, score of quality of life health survey short form (SF-36), incidence of ICU-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) and hospital mortality. Two researchers independently screened the literature, evaluated the quality of the literature and extracted the data. After literature selection, literature quality evaluation and date extraction was performed, and RevMan 5.3 software was used for Meta-analysis. The publication bias was analyzed by funnel plot. Results A total of 13 literatures were included, 10 in English and 3 in Chinese; of the 1 347 patients, 695 in intervention group and 652 in control group. Compared with the control group, the MRC-Score was increased in intervention group [mean difference (MD) = 4.74, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 2.30-7.19, P = 0.000 1], independent walking ability was improved [odds ratio (OR) = 2.04, 95%CI =1.39-2.99, P = 0.000 3], the incidence of ICU-AW was decreased (OR = 0.22, 95%CI = 0.14-0.35, P < 0.000 01), and there was no significant difference in PFIT (MD = -0.19, 95%CI = -0.69-0.31, P = 0.46), physical health (PCS) after 6 months (MD = -1.39, 95%CI = -4.18-1.39, P = 0.33) and inpatient mortality (OR = 0.77, 95%CI = 0.53-1.12, P = 0.17) between two groups. It was shown by funnel plot that the publication bias of each literature was relatively small in terms of MRC-Score, PFIT, independent walking ability and SF-36. Conclusion Early mobilization are beneficial for the physical function recovery of ICU patients, which can improve the muscle strength, improve the ability of patients to walk independently, reduce the occurrence of ICU-AW, and do not increase the mortality rate in hospital.

Objective To evaluate the effect of type WIYIS-6/90 plateau oxygen generating vehicle on the high altitude spot. Methods Totally 20 male soldiers during field training at 4 280 m altitude were involved in this trial. They were given administration of oxygen inhalation at 2 L/min by nasal cannula. Blood pressure, heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, vital capacity, left and right hand strength, digit span and discriminative reaction time were detected before and after oxygen inhalation for 20 minutes and finished for 10 minutes. Results After oxygen inhalation for 20 minutes, blood oxygen saturation, vital capacity, left and right hand strength, digit span and correct times increased and heart rate decreased compared with before oxygen inhalation (P<0.05,or P<0.01).Stopping oxygen inhalation for 10 minutes,vital capacity and right hand strength increased and response time decreased(P<0.05,or P<0.01).Conclusion Using type WIYIS-6/90 plateau oxygen generating vehicle for oxygen supply at high altitude can improve brain-body function and promote work ability.
RESUMEN
Based on the theory and approach of International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), the literatures on the improvement of physical function by physical exercise were reviewed. People with disabilities can improve their body functions, in-cluding mental function, cardiovascular, blood, immune and respiratory function and neuromuscular skeletal and motor related functions via sport and exercise rehabilitation. Some advice was suggested about sports rehabilitation for the disabled.
RESUMEN
In fall 2012, we renovated the grounds surrounding our hospital and constructed a “rehabilitation promenade,” along which patients could stroll and be in touch with the natural environment. The course is 500m long and includes pathways through a wood and along a pond. Using the promenade, patients can go for a stroll, exercise, or interact with other people. In our ambulatory rehabilitation center, the promenade has been incorporated in one of the center’s programs since last year. This time, we herein report a survey on the changes in the mental and physical function over a 6-month period from May 2013 and their satisfaction level with the use of the promenade by a questionnaire in December 2013. 22 subjects with a mean age of 77.5 ± 6.8 years were included in the survey on the mental and physical functions. Also, in satisfaction survey, valid responses were received from 58 individuals (mean age, 78.2 ± 8.2 years; 25 men and 33 women). As a result, in terms of the 6-month changes in mental and physical functions were generally maintained. In the questionnaire, more than 90% of users were satisfied with their use of the promenade, and the statistical analysis revealed that the highest level of satisfaction concerned going outside (p<0.01). For example, “I could feel the fresh air and the seasons” and “I could see a range of scenery.” In addition, compare the results for each category according to sex, the women chose significantly more answers that were related to interacting with other people, whereas the men chose significantly more answers that were related to exercise. From this survey, utilizing the surrounding environment may enable the development of more varied and satisfying forms of rehabilitation. We will continue with initiatives that utilize the promenade to help improve the QOL of those who use it.

Theoretical studies of detection system of human body functions reflecting characteristics of Chinese medicine show that the three indicators of intake of the body from outside and the digestion and absorption of supply perunit time to ensure maximum quality,the energy consumed to maintain the five internal organs function perunit time and the dissipation of body storage perunit time will be able to fully reflect the changes in physiological and pathological status.Based on this theory,data obtained from the new understanding of the classification of the clinical symptoms in the characteristics of life as well as traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) symptoms,TCM symptoms unit and clinical symptoms attribute to TCM symptom information instrument detection.The human body function tests will be an extension of the TCM diagnostic methods,which will supplement the content of clinical symptoms and is expected to become a TCM therapeutic evaluation of quantitative detection methods.
RESUMEN
Objective To study the internal linkage of Hetu and Luoshu that reveals the law from which the universe occurs and develops. Methods By finding out the root causing the difference of the Middle Palace Numbers between Hetu and Luoshu, we try to interpret the origin of the universe and its development. Results The number Five and Ten in the Middle Palace of Hetu are generated by the combination of Sheng-cheng Numbers in Hem's four directions which are One-six, Two-seven, Three-eight, Four-nine which can be producted by each other orderly. The number Five in the Middle Palace of Luoshu is generated by the Yang numbers One-Three-Seven-Nine in Luoshu's four positive directions which have properties of Duidai and Heshi and the Yin numbers of Two-Four-Six-Eight in Luoshu's four comers do not produce the Middle Palace's Ten. Conclusion The combination of respective separations of Sheng-cheng Numbers in Hetu's four directions is the prerequisite of transformation from Hetu to Luoshu. The root of the universe's occurrence is Duidai and Heshi in Luoshu and the root of the universe's development is the separations of Sheng-cheng Numbers from the unity in Hetu.
