A computer and video display based system for training eccentric viewing in macular degeneration with an absolute central scotoma

A new approach designed to establish the most suitable area for eccentric viewing and to teach and train patients with severe age-related macular degeneration (AMD) to use the eccentric viewing technique is described. Using a computer and video display based system, as well as software written specifically for this purpose, we investigated and trained ten consecutive patients with AMD. The patients were 80.1 ± 5.6 years old, on average. All of them had an absolute central scotoma. Mean visual acuity was 0.035 ± 0.016. After 30 min of testing, instruction and reading on the screen, followed by 2.6 ± 0.69 one-hour training sessions, on average, with the low vision therapist, reading newspaper and book texts with the aid of hyperoculars or aplanatic systems and a very short reading distance, the patients achieved a reading speed of 58.9 ± 19.7 words/min, significantly (p<0.001) higher than the initial speed when reading on the screen, 11.5 ± 4.5 words/min.

高温高湿环境下守岛官兵训练时脑血流和脑电生理的变化研究

目的 探讨高温高湿环境下守岛官兵训练前后脑血流和脑电生理的变化,为临床防治热致疾病提供依据.方法 从守岛官兵中随机抽取在常温常湿环境下温度(27.40±1.37)℃,湿度(50.25±6.76)%]新兵100名为常温新兵组,高温高湿环境下(温度≥35℃,湿度≥80%)新兵100名为高温新兵组;高温高湿环境下服役2～3 年的官兵100名为高温老兵组.受试者负重15 kg,分次在3000 m/15 min,5000 m/30 min和10 000 m/45 min内完成跑步训练.10 000 m训练后,根据受试者脑血流高低又分为脑血流增高组(24名)、脑血流降低组(46名)和脑血流正常组(230名).训练前后行经颅多普勒血流诊断仪和脑电图仪检测.结果 (1)3000 m训练后3组受试官兵脑平均血流速度(Vm)较训练前均显著增高(P＜0.01),但5000 m和10 000 m训练后,常温新兵组降低6%和16%,高温老兵组降低5%和15%,高温新兵组降低14%和31%,比常温新兵组和高温老兵组低(P＜0.01);(2)10 000 m训练前后3组脑电图均在正常范围,3组比较差异无统计学意义(P＞0.05);(3)10 000 m训练后脑血流增高组和降低组脑电图比正常血流组活跃(P＜0.01).结论 高温高湿环境下10 000 m训练对官兵的脑血流有较大的影响,但对脑电生理无影响,老兵在此环境下则表现出较好的热耐受力和适应性.     

Similarities in Skeletal Muscle Strength and Exercise Capacity Between Renal Transplant and Hemodialysis Patients

Exercise intolerance is common in hemodialysis (HD) and renal transplant (RTx) patients. Aim of the study was to assess to what extent exercise capacity and skeletal muscle strength of RTx patients differ from HD patients and healthy controls and to elucidate potential determinants of exercise capacity in RTx patients. Exercise capacity, muscle strength, lean body mass (LBM) and physical activity level (PAL) were measured by cycle-ergometry, isokinetic dynamometry, DEXA and Baecke Questionnaire, respectively, in 35 RTx, 16 HD and 21 controls. VO2peak and muscle strength of the RTx patients were significantly lower compared to controls (p<0.01), but not different compared to HD patients. In RTx patients, strength (p<0.001), PAL (p=0.001) and age (p=0.045) were significant predictors of VO2peak. Muscle strength was related to LBM (p=0.001) and age (p=0.001), whereas gender (p<0.001) and renal function (p=0.01) turned out to be significant predictors of LBM. No effects of corticosteroids were observed. Exercise capacity and muscle strength seem equally reduced in RTx and HD patients compared to controls. In RTx patients, muscle strength and PAL are highly related to exercise capacity. Renal function appears to be a significant predictor of LBM, and through the LBM, of muscle strength and exercise capacity.     

含钛合金及Ni-Cr合金与瓷粉结合强度的实验研究

目的:研究含钛合金(4%～6%)[熔附HeraCeramJC瓷粉(A1组)和Vita瓷粉(A2组)]、HeraCeram公司的Ni-Cr合金[熔附HeraCeramJC瓷粉(B1组)和Vita瓷粉(B2组)]及西北有色金属厂的Ni-Cr合金[熔附HeraCeramJC瓷粉(C1组)和Vita瓷粉(C2组)]的金-瓷结合强度,为临床工作提供参考。方法:运用三点弯曲法对各组的金-瓷结合强度进行测试,并对金-瓷结合界面进行电镜观察分析。结果:电镜显示各组瓷粉均与金属基体结合紧密,无明显气泡、中间层等缺陷。结合强度:A1组:(41.08±2.98)MPa,B1组:(46.05±3.16)MPa,C1组:(44.04±3.69)Mpa;A2组:(42.29±3.38)MPa,B2组:(42.05±3.26)MPa,C2组:(47.47±2.92)MPa。①HeraCeramJC瓷粉与3种合金结合的结合强度比较:B1>A1(P<0.05);B1>C1、C1>A1(P>0.05)。②Vita瓷粉与3种合金结合的结合强度比较:C2>A2、C2>B2(P<0.05);A2>B2(P>0.05)。结论:本实验表明临床常用的3种非贵合金与瓷粉的金-瓷结合强度均大于ISO所要求的基本值25MPa,但各组间还存在一定差异,为临床工作中根据患者的具体情况选择合适的烤瓷修复基底材料和瓷粉提供实验依据。     

Neglected rupture of the Achilles tendon treated with peroneus brevis transfer: A functional assessment of 5 cases

The purpose of this study was to review the clinical results of 5 patients who underwent repair of a chronic Achilles tendon rupture using a combination of peroneus brevis transfer and plantaris tendon augmentation. The technique belongs to the group of local tendon transfer procedures making use of the transferred peroneus brevis tendon as strengthening material together with the plantaris tendon as suturing material. There were 4 males and 1 female with an average age of 49.4 years and an average time to presentation postinjury of 19.8 weeks (range 5-40 wk). All patients underwent Cybex strength testing before and approximately 1 year after surgery. This testing demonstrated a postoperative improvement in peak plantarflexion torque (Newton-meters/body weight) in all cases. The peak torque of plantar flexion increased in all patients (range, 21%-410%). Four patients were found to have an increase of the dorsal flexors peak torque (range, 31%-290%), whereas one patient showed a decrease (-37%). No patient experienced wound closure complications, postoperative pain, or functional limitations. In spite the possibility of residual lateral ankle instability, we found this modification to be a valuable innovation that offers a very good functional result, low morbidity, technical advantages to the surgeon and, most important, a durable and satisfactory result for the patients.     

综合心理干预对高原新兵训练伤的影响

目的探讨综合心理干预对高原新兵训练伤发生率的影响。方法1000名高原新兵随机分为心理干预组和对照组。在新兵训练期间,对心理干预组新兵,除常规的生理卫生教育和监督外,进行综合心理干预;利用症状自评量表(SCL-90)、焦虑自测量表(SAS)、抑郁自测量表(SDS),在新训开始和结束时,进行心理状态测定;并统计各组新兵训练伤发生情况。结果心理干预组战士在SCL-90中的躯体化、抑郁、焦虑、恐怖等项的分值,在SAS和SDS中的总分值明显低于对照组(P<0.05),心理干预组战士训练伤中的软组织损伤、骨关节损伤、训练伤总发生率均明显低于对照组(P<0.05)。结论适当的综合心理干预对于训练伤的预防有积极的作用。
