Purpose: To evaluate the responsiveness of two outcome measures of participation restriction [as measured by the Community Integration Questionnaire (CIQ)] and quality of life [as measured by the Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life (MSQOL)] following a physiotherapy intervention in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Method: A sample of 265 patients completed both instruments first at the time of initial visit and then after 4–6 weeks physiotherapy. In addition, patients were asked to complete the 7-point global rating scale as an external criterion of change at the post-intervention time. The responsiveness was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) method and the correlation analysis. Two useful statistics were area under the ROC curve (AUC) and the minimally clinically important difference (MCID). The AUC and correlation coefficient greater than 0.70 were considered as acceptable responsiveness. Results: The CIQ achieved the acceptable responsiveness with an AUC of 0.81. However, the AUCs of 0.61 and 0.66 were obtained for the MSQOL physical and mental, respectively. Moreover, good correlation coefficient was obtained for the CIQ (Gamma?=?0.76) while fair correlations of 0.28 and 0.33 were obtained for the MSQOL physical and mental, respectively. The MCIDs were approximately 0.50, 1.5 and 2.5 points for the CIQ, MSQOL physical and mental, respectively. Conclusions: In contrast to the MSQOL, the CIQ was responsive outcome measure in detecting changes in participation restriction of patients with MS. Moreover, the MCID values obtained in this study will help the clinicians and researchers to determine if a patient with MS has experienced a true change following physiotherapy intervention.
- Implications for Rehabilitation
The results provide valuable information regarding to the ability of two outcome measures (i.e. the CIQ and MSQOL) to detect treatment effects in patients with MS.
In contrast to the MSQOL, the CIQ is a responsive measure to changes in participation restriction due to physiotherapy.
A patient with MS had to change at least 0.50 point on the CIQ, 1.5 points on the MSQOL physical and 2.5 points on the MSQOL mental to be judged as having clinically changed.

Objective
Functional polymorphisms within vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene have shown association with various conditions including diabetic neuropathy and retinopathy. In this study we have performed a candidate gene association study in order to examine VEGF gene polymorphism association with diabetic foot ulcer (DFU).Methods
The study group comprised of type 2 diabetes patients with (N = 247) and without (N = 241) DFU. Healthy control subjects (N = 98) were also recruited from the same area. The ARMS-PCR technique was applied for genotyping of VEGF gene SNPs at positions −7*C/T and −2578*C/A.Results
The frequency of genotype AA was significantly decreased in patients with DFU compared with diabetic subjects without DFU (AA vs CA + CC, p = 0.003, OR = 0.44, CI = 0.24-0.80). Also there was a significant decrease in frequency of A allele in patients with DFU compared to the controls (p = 0.02, OR = 0.68, CI = 0.48-0.96).Conclusion
It seems that lower frequency of A allele in patients with DFU is conferring a protective effect which might be as a result of increased angiogenesis in patients carrying this allele. 相似文献6.

Background
Chronic pain is a frequent disability that negatively affects patient''s quality of life. Understanding of the possible relation between sociodemographic and medical variables with Health Related Quality of Life (HRQL) may help identifying the multidimensionality of pain and risk factors that limit physical and psychological adjustment of the patients. The present study was done to find these possible relationships, based on using Medical Outcomes Survey-Short Form (SF-36).Methods
Among the patients who were referred to pain clinic of Iranian Pain Society, 101 consecutive outpatients were select based on the defined inclusion and exclusion criteria. All the participants in this study orally satisfied and were fully informed by a check list and SF-36 questionnaire. The possible impact of demographic variables, characteristics, diagnosis, analgesic use, smoking and opium addiction were collected as the first part of a routine pretreatment evaluation.Results
Our findings showed significant relation between HRQL and gender (P < 0.05), the rate of chronic pain in female was higher than male, and same results found for elderly patients compared to younger ones. Our findings also showed significant relation between employment and intensity of pain (p = 0.001) as, employed patients showed less physical and psychotic problems than unemployed ones. The mean average of intensity of pain in these patients was 7.5±2.2; few patients used alcohol (4%), opium (1%) and cigarette (10%). Large number of participants used analgesic (%78.2). No significant difference between sociodemographic features with pain duration and quality of life was found. In contrast our data showed significant difference between pain intensity and quality of life (p < 0.001).Conclusion
Based on our findings it could be concluded that chronic pain in Iranian patients certainly leads to poor HRQL, the state is more serious in the elderly and female patients. Thus, in order to re-socialize the patients suffering chronic pain and decrease the impact of their pain on their life, these findings should be considered in any kind of pain relief therapy. 相似文献7.

Our aim is to assess the effect of cinnamon powder capsules on insulin resistance, anthropometric measurements, glucose and lipid profiles, and androgens of women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Out of 80 women that were diagnosed as PCOS by Rotterdam Criteria, 66 were enrolled in this randomized double‐blind placebo‐controlled clinical trial. All of the PCOS women were taking medroxy progesterone acetate 10 mg/day for the last 10 days of their menstrual cycles. The cases were randomly allocated to 2 groups. The women in the first group were treated by cinnamon powder capsules 1.5 g/day in 3 divided doses for 12 weeks and the second group by similar placebo capsules. Anthropometric measurements, fasting blood sugar, fasting insulin, blood glucose 2 hr after taking 75 g oral glucose, HbA1c, testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate, homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance, triglyceride, and cholesterol (low‐density lipoprotein, high‐density lipoprotein, and total) before and after the intervention were evaluated and compared as outcome measures. Fasting insulin (p = .024) and homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (p = .014) were reduced after 12 weeks in the cinnamon group compared with the placebo. There was also a significant decrease in low‐density lipoprotein in cinnamon group (p = .004) as compared with baseline that caused significant difference with placebo (p = .049). However, changes in other outcome measurements did not lead to statistically significant difference with placebo. The present results suggest that complementary supplementation of cinnamon significantly reduced fasting insulin and insulin resistance in women with PCOS. 相似文献

In this study, an unsaturated Cu-based MOF, HKUST (Cu3(BTC)2), was fabricated and modified with sulfonate groups in two steps, leading to the construction of a novel sulfo-functionalized MOF. The prepared framework was utilized in the adsorption and separation of various organic dyes (MB, Er, FS, and MV). The adsorption process represented intriguing features due to the introduction of the SO3H functional groups into the framework. Such an attractive feature has rarely been depicted in previous works. In addition to the substantially increased adsorption capacity of the modified framework compared with that of pristine MOF, a reverse and selective phenomenon was perceived in the cases of FS and MV. The sulfo-functionalized MOF could adsorb MV with high adsorption capacity but barely adsorbed FS, and the opposite condition was observed for pristine MOF. In addition, the prepared framework showed high selectivity in a mixed solution of dyes. On the other hand, the modified framework had no role in the first step of the adsorption and separation process and showed the same behavior as pristine MOF. Furthermore, the sulfonate functional groups could not be directly incorporated into HKUST. The experimental data followed the pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir isotherm model. Thermodynamic studies demonstrated an exothermic spontaneous mechanism for the dye adsorption process. The prepared adsorbents were capable of being recycled for four sequential cycles. Hereupon, this study presents a notably efficacious approach for the reverse performance of frameworks for the dye adsorption and separation process.A novel sulfo-functionalized MOF was utilized as an efficient adsorbent for a reversal in the removal and selective separation of dyes from contaminated water. 相似文献
