RESUMO
Objective To observe the effects of electroacupuncture at"Ciliao","Zhongji","Sanyinjiao"and"Dazhui"on urodynamics and expression of ERK/CREB/Bcl-2 pathway in spinal cord tissue of neurogenic bladder rats after suprasacral spinal cord injury.Methods Sixty female SD rats randomly selected 24 and divided into blank group and sham-operation group(12 rats in each group),the remaining 36 rats were subjected to surgical modeling.After modeling,rats were randomly divided into the model group and the electroacupuncture group,with 12 rats in each group.The electroacupuncture group received unilateral electroacupuncture stimulation at acupoints"Ciliao","Zhongji","Sanyinjiao",and"Dazhui"for 30 minutes each time,once a day,for 7 consecutive days.After administration,urodynamic testing was performed,HE staining was used to observe the morphology of bladder detrusor tissue,TUNEL method was used to detected apoptosis in spinal cord tissue,Western blot was used to detected expressions of p-ERK1/2,p-CREB,p-p90Rsk,CRE,Bcl-2,and Bax proteins in spinal cord tissue.Results Compared with the sham-operation group,the basal pressure,maximum pressure,and leakage point pressure of the bladder in the model group increased significantly(P<0.01),while the maximum capacity and compliance of the bladder decreased significantly(P<0.01);the structure of bladder smooth muscle cells was severely damaged and disorderly arranged,accompanied by a large amount of inflammatory cell infiltration;the apoptosis rate of spinal cord tissue cells significantly increased(P<0.01),and the expressions of p-ERK1/2,p-p90Rsk,p-CREB,CRE,and Bcl-2 proteins in spinal cord tissue were significantly decreased,while the expression of Bax protein significantly increased(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the basal pressure,maximum pressure,and leakage point pressure of the bladder in the electroacupuncture group decreased significantly(P<0.05),while the maximum capacity and compliance of the bladder increased significantly(P<0.05,P<0.01);the integrity of bladder smooth muscle cells was enhanced,the degree of cell edema was reduced,and inflammatory cell infiltration was reduced;the apoptosis rate of spinal cord tissue cells was significantly reduced(P<0.05),and the expressions of p-ERK1/2,p-p90Rsk,p-CREB,CRE,and Bcl-2 proteins in spinal cord tissue significantly increased,while the expression of Bax protein was significantly decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion Electroacupuncture can promote the repair of bladder detrusor tissue in rats with neurogenic bladder model after suprasacral spinal cord injury,increase the maximum capacity and compliance of the bladder,alleviate the high pressure state in the bladder,and its mechanism is related to activating the ERK/CREB/Bcl-2 pathway,reducing secondary apoptosis of damaged neurons,effectively improving bladder innervation,and protecting bladder function.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the situation of return-to-work (RTW) and its related factors in female injured works. Methods The da-ta of the basic information, counseling record and follow-up record after discharge were collected from social rehabilitation department in our center. The main influencing factors were analyzed by single factor analysis and two classification Logistic regression. Results 232 ob-jects were collected, among which, 149(64.2%) subjects had returned to work, and the median of absence time was 206.5 days. Single factor analysis indicated that their age, marriage, absence time and educational level were not correlated with the outcome of women injured work-ers' employment (P>0.05). However, place of social insurance, household register and injury severity correlated with the outcome (P<0.05). Conclusion Most of the female injured workers can return to work. The severity of injury, along with some system factors influence the RTW of them.
RESUMO
@#Objective To measure the reliability and validity of the Lam Assessment of Stages of Employment Readiness (LASER) Putonghua version for injured workers, and observe the confidence of return to work on different preparation stages. Methods 85 injured workers with limb fractures were included. The data was obtained through face-to-face structured interview. The test-retest reliability and internal consistency were measured. Factor analysis was used to examine construct validity of the Putonghua version LASER. Results Principle component analysis extracted four factors, which was consistent with the original version of LASER. Intra- class correlation coefficient (ICC) of test-retest ranged 0.27~0.89, whereas the internal consistence among these 4 stages ranged 0.691~0.796. There were significantly differences in confident scores in different stages among 3 different confidence groups. Conclusion The structure validity of Putonghua version of LASER is useful for reflecting the readiness of injured workers' return to work. However, the reliability coefficient is rather low in some of the items, which could be resulted in incorrect judgment of readiness of return to work of injured workers. The further study on items correction and development is apparent.
RESUMO
@#Objective To explore the case management model of return to work injured workers. Methods A retrospective cohort wasformed with 523 injured workers in rehabilitation centre. The social demographic information, medical data and intervention process wereextracted from the medical records. A Cox Regression Model was used to examine the effect of case management on work processes and otherrelevant factors affecting RTW. Results 275 cases (82.1%) out of the 335 subjects successfully returned to work after median absence durationof 36.0 days. Computer training prompted RTW outcomes (P<0.01), while disability adjustment activity showed an opposite effect(P<0.05). It showed that education level, family attitude to RTW and level of injury were significantly associated with outcomes of RTW.Conclusion Specific skills reconstruction and training would is one of the most important components of the case management interventionprogram on RTW. Although disability adjustment did not specifically benefit RTW, it might help in improving workers' general health status,and it should not be ignored in any case.
RESUMO
@#Objective To discuss with the principles and methods of whole rehabilitation plan including occupational rehabilitation and community re-integration for injured workers.MethodsAfter following up on 371 injured workers, 14 intensive investigation and follow-up injured workers' cases were taken out as samples and studied according to some elements including gender and family role, degree of physical disability, rehabilitation process, compensation for work injury. The status of occupational rehabilitation and community re-integration and affected factors were also analyzed.ResultsThe factors affecting injured workers' occupational rehabilitation and community re-integration included the degree of physical disability, gender and family role, compensation for work injury, work injury rehabilitation policy and the model of work injury rehabilitation service management by multi-professional group.ConclusionThe whole injury rehabilitation plan should be considered the needs of injury worker basic medical treatment, occupational rehabilitation and community re-integration, the appropriate support and guidance should be provided and the model of one stage and intensive investigation work injury rehabilitation service management should be established early.
