RESUMO
Objective:To explore the effect of whole body vibration (WBV) on lower extremities loading, balance and walking for stroke patients based on weight-bearing training. Methods:In 2017, 70 stroke inpatients were randomly divided into control group (n = 35) and experimental group (n = 35). They all accepted routine rehabilitation and weight-bearing training, while the experimental group accepted WBV in addition, for six weeks. They were assessed with weight-bearing time, gait length and speed, Berg Balance Scale (BBS) and Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) before and after treatment. Results:The weight-bearing time, gait length and speed, and the scores of BBS and FAC improved after treatment in both groups (t > 8.835, P < 0.001), and improved more in the experimental group than in the control group (F > 19.644, P < 0.001). Conclusion:WBV may further improve the abilities of lower extremities for stroke patients.
RESUMO
Objective To observe the effects of aerobic training and aerobic combined with resistance training on motor function, like muscle strength,cardiopulmonary endurance and so on,in patients with chronic kidney disease(CKD). Methods From July,2015 to August,2016,60 patients with CKD were randomly divided into control group(A,n=20), aerobic training group(B,n=20)and aerobic combined with resistance training group(C,n=20).Group B per-formed cycle ergometer at 50% peak oxygen uptake(VO2peak)for 30 minutes a time,and group C performed one section of Thera-Band resistance training based on group B, three times a week for twelve weeks.All patients were evaluated with one repetition maximum-upper limb (1 RM-U), one repetition maximum-lower limb (1 RM-L),Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test(CPET),Arm Curl Test(ACT),30-second Chair Stand(CS-30),Six-Min-ute Walk Test(6MWT),and estimated gomerular filtration rate(eGFR)and serum creatinine(sCr)were calculat-ed and recorded before and after training. Results There was no significant difference in all indexes among three groups before training(F<1.841,P>0.05).After training,all indexes improved in groups B and C(t>2.162,P<0.05),and were better in groups B and C than in group A(t>2.132, P<0.05).After training, 1 RM-U, 1 RM-L, VO2peak,ACT, CS-30 and 6MWT were better in group C than in group B(t>2.081,P<0.05). Conclusion Aerobic training could improve the motor function of patients with CKD,and it is more effective combined with resistance training.
