Objective To review the up-to-date development of overseas cl inical study on exercise therapy for patients with knee osteoarthritis. Methods The cl inical researches of exercise therapy for knee osteoarthritis were summarized by reviewing l iterature concerned in recent years. Results Exercise therapy was extensively used in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis not only in hospital but also in community rehabil itation abroad. The main patterns of exercise therapy included muscle strengthening exercise, aerobic exercise and underwater exercise. It was capable of effectively improving patient’s independent l iving abil ity and l ive qual ity, and postproning the time of surgical intervention. But the long-term efficacy of exercise therapy was still under debate. Conclusion Exercise therapy is an effect method to treat knee osteoarthritis.
In 2020, chronic kidney disease has become one of the top 10 causes of death in the world. More and more evidence shows that proper exercise rehabilitation is beneficial to the health of patients with chronic kidney disease, which can improve the survival rate and slow down the decline of renal function. However, existing studies have significant differences in form, intensity, duration, and specific implementation methods of sports rehabilitation, which need to be further standardized and unified. This article introduces the impact of exercise rehabilitation on patients with chronic kidney disease and the clinical application of Chinese traditional exercises in patients with chronic kidney disease, and mainly discusses the application experience of exercise rehabilitation characterized by “Three-in-one Taiji” in the Department of Nephrology of West China Hospital of Sichuan University. It aims to provide a basis for the model innovation of integrated management of chronic kidney disease in China.
Elderly patients with chronic kidney disease not only suffer from senescence-related muscle strength decline, but also exist muscle attenuation caused by chronic kidney disease. Sarcopenia of this group are more obvious, and falls, incapacity, weakness and death caused by sarcopenia are more prominent. At present, clinicians’ understanding of sarcopenia is still in the aspects of concept popularization and basic research, and there is a lack of practical diagnosis and treatment process and clinical prevention and treatment practice. Starting from the evolution of the definition of sarcopenia, this paper elaborates on the characteristics of sarcopenia in elderly patients with chronic kidney disease, as well as the exercise rehabilitation of sarcopenia in elderly patients with chronic kidney disease, in order to improve the attention and understanding of renal colleagues on sarcopenia in elderly people with chronic kidney disease.
Most patients with end-stage renal disease choose maintenance hemodialysis to prolong survival. The clinical application of exercise therapy has a definite effect on maintenance hemodialysis patients, and can effectively improve their quality of life and promote rehabilitation. Individualized exercise therapy under the guidance of medical professionals has positive effects on patients’ physical and mental rehabilitation. This paper mainly summarizes the status of exercise, factors affecting exercise, exercise therapy, exercise and rehabilitation of maintenance hemodialysis patients, and reviews the impact of exercise therapy on the physical and mental health of maintenance hemodialysis patients, in order to provide some references for clinical intervention and prognosis studies.
Objective To investigate the influence of the integration of fracture treatment and exercise rehabilitation on the effectiveness in the patients with intertrochanteric fracture of femur. Methods Between January 2007 and December 2009, 3 873 patients with intertrochanteric fracture of femur were surgically treated in 56 hospitals. Of them, 1 970 cases were treated with rehabilitation training according to scale of safety assessment of early exercise rehabilitation of patients with fractures (trial group), 1 903 cases were treated with traditional rehabilitation training methods (control group). There was no significant difference in age, gender, fracture type, internal fixation type, or postoperative safety score between 2 groups (P gt; 0.05). Results All the patients were followed up 13-49 months (mean, 30.5 months). There was no significant difference in the incidences of bone nonunion, delayed union, and systemic complication between 2 groups (P gt; 0.05); significant differences were found in the incidences of incision complication, deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremity, and the overall complication between 2 groups (P lt; 0.05). At 6 and 12 months after operation, the trial group was significantly better than the control group in the recovery of hip motion, curative effectiveness classification, and the excellent and good rate (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion The treatment of intertrochanteric fracture of the femur guided by the integration of fracture treatment and exercise rehabilitation can apparently improve the prognosis and reduce the incidence of complications.
Chronic kidney diseases (CKD) with long duration and a variety of complications have caused great physical and psychological problems for patients, and the overall quality of life of patients is low. Taijiquan, as a traditional Chinese techniques project, is beneficial to improving cardiopulmonary function, enhancing lower limb muscle strength, and reducing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risks. We summarized the latest progress in clinical research concerning taijiquan as exercise rehabilitation for patients with CKD, aiming to promote the clinical application of taijiquan and other traditional exercises in the rehabilitation process of CKD patients and improve the overall quality of life of CKD patients.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy of exercise intervention on smoking cessation. MethodsCNKI, WanFang Data, VIP, Web of Science, PubMed and EMbase databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and randomized cross controlled trials (RCDs) on exercise intervention for smoking cessation from inception to September 2021. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using Stata 12.0 software. ResultsA total of 47 studies (35 RCTs and 12 RCDs) involving 5 130 subjects were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that acute exercise could significantly reduce the quitters’ desire to smoke (P<0.05), alleviate most of the withdrawal symptoms, and the effect of acute exercise was maintained for at least 30 minutes. Periodic exercise significantly reduced 7-day point abstinence and sustained abstinence rates in ex-smokers (P<0.05), and the effect of periodic exercise was maintained for at least 12 weeks, however, depression and stress were not found to be effectively relieved, and mood was not found to be significantly improved (P>0.05). ConclusionExercise intervention to quit smoking has a positive effect, however, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
Objective To study the application effect of Snyder hope theory combined with Satir model in the rehabilitation therapy of young and middle-aged patients with stroke. Methods A total of 224 young and middle-aged patients with stroke admitted to Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University between August 2018 and August 2020 were divided into four groups (control group, Satir group, Snyder group, and combined group) according to the random number table method by taking admission time as sequence. All patients were given rehabilitation training on the basis of conventional treatment, and the Satir group was given group guidance of Satir model, the Snyder group was given hope therapy based on Snyder hope theory, and the combined group was given intervention combined Snyder hope theory with Satir model. All patients were continuously treated for six weeks. The scores of Herth Hope Index (HHI), Self-perceived Burden Scale (SPBS), exercise rehabilitation willingness questionnaire, Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile Ⅱ (HPLP Ⅱ), and Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ) were compared among the four groups before and after intervention. Results There were 53, 52, 54, and 52 patients enrolled in the control group, the Satir group, the Snyder group, and the combined group, respectively. The differences among the four groups in basic information such as sex, age, and type of stroke and the scores of the above scales before intervention were not statistically significant (P>0.05). After intervention, the total scores of HHI scale (27.65±6.34, 30.54±6.85, 32.79±7.12, 35.08±7.63), scores of exercise rehabilitation willingness (39.85±8.16, 40.52±7.93, 40.17±8.25, 43.81±7.46), total scores of HPLP Ⅱ scale (149.87±26.08, 159.32±26.73, 165.89±28.01, 173.18±28.54), and scores of positive coping style of SCSQ scale (19.65±5.08, 22.46±5.29, 25.04±4.91, 28.45±5.12) of the four groups significantly increased compared with those before intervention (P<0.05), while the total scores of SPBS scale (27.35±4.92, 23.74±5.02, 25.16±4.98, 21.49±5.27) and scores of negative coping style of SCSQ scale (4.83±1.25, 3.71±1.02, 3.94±1.08, 4.13±0.96) significantly decreased compared with those before intervention (P<0.05); the scores of HHI scale, exercise rehabilitation willingness, HPLP Ⅱ scale, and positive coping style of SCSQ scale of the combined group were higher than those of the other three groups (P<0.05), while the score of SPBS scale was lower than that of the other three groups (P<0.05). Conclusions Snyder hope theory combined with Satir model for rehabilitation therapy of young and middle-aged patients with stroke can help to improve the hope level, reduce the self-perceived burden, and improve the exercise rehabilitation willingness, health behaviors and coping styles. In addition, it is of great significance for promoting the rehabilitation of patients.
Under the new era background of actively advocating the " active health” in the elderly, the prevention methods of falls not only include environmental modification, reasonable drugs, emotional support, disease prevention and control, etc., but exercise should also be integrated into them. Exercise training can significantly improve muscle strength, balance, and mobility in the elderly, thereby reducing the risk of falls. This paper reviews the biomechanical causes of falls in the elderly, the sports training prescriptions for fall prevention in the elderly, and the research prospects of sports training for fall prevention in the elderly. It is hoped that the elderly population could establish an active healthy lifestyle based on sports training, elevate the physical fitness continuously, reduce the fall injury, and improve the quality of life through strength, balance, and endurance training.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy of exercise therapy for patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP) by network meta-analysis (NMA).MethodsThe PubMed, EBSCO, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP and CBM databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCT) on exercise for patients with CLBP from inception to May, 2020. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed risk of bias of included studies. Then, NMA was performed by Stata 15.1 software.ResultsA total of 79 RCTs involving 5 782 CLBP patients were included. The effect of exercise therapy on pain in patients with CLBP were in the following rankings: yoga (SMD=−1.25, 95%CI −1.87 to −0.64, P<0.000 1), health Qigong/Taichi (SMD=−1.12, 95%CI −1.87 to −0.64, P=0.002), sling exercise (SMD=−1.07, 95%CI −1.64 to −0.50, P<0.000 1), Mackenzie therapy (SMD=−1.05, 95%CI −1.68 to −0.42, P=0.001), pilates (SMD=−0.96, 95%CI −1.74 to −1.78, P=0.016), multimodal training (SMD=−0.80, 95%CI −1.33 to −0.27, P=0.003) and stabilisation/motor control (SMD=−0.62, 95%CI −1.03 to −0.21, P=0.003). The effect of exercise therapy on function in patients with CLBP were in the following rankings: Mackenzie therapy (SMD=−0.62, 95%CI −1.03 to −0.21, P=0.003), and yoga (SMD=−0.88, 95%CI −1.51 to −0.25, P=0.007). Clusterank results showed that Mackenzie therapy, yoga, pilates, sling exercise and multimodal training were similar in improving pain and physical function in patients with CLBP.ConclusionsThe current study shows that yoga, Mackenzie therapy, pilates, sling exercise and multimodal training constitute the optimal group for improving CLBP symptoms. Health Qigong/Taichi is second only to yoga in improving pain in patients with CLBP, which has great promotional value.
