Perceptual learning, a new method for treating amblyopia, improves the ability to process signals from the cerebral optic nerve system by specific visual stimulation and visual learning, as well as activation of the visual signal pathway utilizing brain nervous system plasticity. OBJECTIVE: This study investigated and evaluated the curative effects of perceptual learning, which can directionally increase brain plasticity, on the treatment of amblyopia in children. The relationship between curative effect and time was also analyzed. DESIGN: A self-control experiment. SETTING: Visual Science and Optometry Center, People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 125 amblyopic children (250 amblyopic eyes), 73 males, 52 females, averaging (6 ± 2) years of age, received treatment at the Visual Science and Optometry Center, People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region between September 2006 and February 2007 and were recruited for this study. All children presented with no structural disease of the eyeballs. Written informed consent for therapeutic regiments was obtained from each child's parent. The protocol received approval from the Hospital's Ethics Committee. METHODS: Visual function was tested with a perceptual learning system (Research Center for Human Health and Development of Sun Yat-sen University, National Engineering Technique Research Center for Medical Care Implement) for visual noise, position noise, contour discrimination, contrast sensitivity, grating stereogram, and random-dot fusion. These tests helped to evaluate the efficiency of visual information processing of these children, and to determine the degree of defects of the optic nerve cells and the connections of visual cortical neurons. According to results of visual function tests, individualized treatment was adopted for each amblyopia patient using perceptual learning system. One course of treatment lasted one month, and treatment was performed twice every day with two training procedures (each training procedure lasted for ten minutes). There was a ten-minute time interval between the two training procedures. The training treatment was performed in a quiet and dark environment. Visual acuity and recovery of visual function were tested every month. Original training procedure was continued or adjusted according to the results of visual function. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Visual function change; relationship of curative effects and curative time. RESULTS: A total of 125 amblyopia children were included in the final analysis. The total efficiency of perceptual learning for treating amblyopia in children was 75.2%. Visual acuity began to greatly increase 3 months after treatment (P < 0.05). Visual acuity was best corrected from 0.60 ± 0.23 before treatment to 0.86 ± 0.26 after treatment (P < 0.05). The mean time to reach improved levels with curative effects was (2.82 ± 1.30) months, and to reach a basically cured level was (2.87 ± 1.40) months. Percentage of improved visual acuity was the highest [98% (39/40)] in children that received 3 months of treatment and the lowest [55% (31/56)] in children that received 1 month of treatment (P < 0.05). The percentage of basically cured levels with curative effects increased with length of learning time and was the greatest in children that received 4 months of treatment [67% (31/46), P < 0.05]. CONCLUSION: Perceptual learning rapidly and remarkably improves visual function of amblyopia children; however, the curative effects are first apparent two and three months after intervention.展开更多

文摘Objective:To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and analgesic effect of acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of herpes zoster by comparing western medicine.Methods:Randomized controlled trials on acupuncture and western medicine for herpes zoster were searched from CNKI,Wanfang Database,VIP,CMB,PubMed,Embase and Cochrane library databases,and the retrieval time was from January 2010 to July 2020.RevMan5.3 software was used for Meta analysis.Results:A total of 30 randomized controlled studies were included,involving a total of 4292 patients.Subgroup analysis was conducted according to different intervention measures in the experimental group.The results showed that:(1)The total effective rate of the subgroup analysis showed that the combined effect of acupuncture treatment alone RR=1.10,95%CI[1.05,1.15],P<0.0001.Results:RR=1.16,95%CI[0.86,1.57],P=0.33.It suggests that the therapeutic effect of acupuncture and moxibustion on herpes zoster is superior to that of western medicine,but acupuncture and western medicine treatment cannot improve the clinical efficacy of western medicine.However,due to the unstable meta-analysis of acupuncture and western medicine treatment in the subgroup,the results need to be treated with caution and further clinical verification is still needed.(2)VAS score improvement analysis showed that the combined effect of acupuncture alone RR=2.20,95%CI[1.53,2.87],P<0.00001.RR=1.12,95%CI[0.39,1.85],P=0.002,suggesting that acupuncture is significantly better than western medicine in improving the pain of shingles,and western medicine combined with acupuncture can improve the analgesic effect.(3)The subgroup analysis of sequelae incidence showed that the combined effect amount of acupuncture alone on sequelae incidence at 30 days was RR=0.34,95%CI[0.25,0.48],P<0.00001,and the combined effect amount of acupuncture combined with western medicine was RR=0.18,95%CI[0.05,0.69],P=0.01.Incidence of sequelae at 60 days RR=0.38,95%CI[0.23,0.62],P=0.0001;The incidence of post-herpetic neuralgia treated with acupuncture alone at 90 days RR=0.39,95%CI[0.20,0.74],P=0.004,suggesting that the incidence of post-herpetic neuralgia treated with acupuncture is significantly lower than that treated with western medicine,and western medicine combined with acupuncture can reduce the incidence of post-herpetic neuralgia.(4)The time analysis of the onset of pain relief showed that the combined effect of acupuncture alone RR=-2.32,95%CI[-2.48,-2.17],P<0.00001.RR=-2.39,95%CI[-2.70,-2.09],P<0.00001,suggesting that the onset time of acupuncture and moxibustion was shorter than that of western medicine,and western medicine combined with acupuncture and moxibustion could accelerate the onset time of analgesia.(5)The time analysis of pain relief showed that the combined effect of acupuncture alone RR=-10.80,95%CI[-12.49,-9.01],P<0.00001.RR=-5.98,95%CI[-11.55,-0.41],P=0.04,suggesting that acupuncture treatment of herpes zoster can significantly reduce the pain time,combined with western medicine can shorten the pain time.Conclusion:Acupuncture and moxibustion treatment of herpes zoster in the total effective rate,pain relief and the incidence of post-neurosis is significantly better than western medicine;Acupuncture and moxibustion combined with western medicine can improve the analgesic effect and reduce the incidence of post-neurosis.In view of the low overall quality of the literature included in this study,further clinical validation is needed for this conclusion.
文摘To investigate the efficacy of repairing finger nail bed defects by split-thickness nail bed grafts in one stage,and evaluate the functional recovery of nail beds comprehensively.Methods From February 2000 to Decemeber 2003,33 fingers with nail bed defect in 26 patients (7 thumbs,13 index fingers,9 middle fingers,4 ring fingers)were repaired with middle thickness grafts of nail bed harvested from the residual nail beds of the same fingers or from nail beds of 1st,1nd and 3rd toes.Brachial plexus block or regional anesthesia was used.When the area of nail bed defect area was less than one third of the nail,the graft was taken from the same finger under rubber tourniquet.In condition of the area of nail bed defect larger than one third of the nail beyond nail plica or two nail bed defects,the grafts were taken from the nail beds of 1st,2nd and 3rd toes.Results In the study,there were 23 fingers (18 patients) with the nail bed defects area more than 5 mm and less than one third of the nail repaired with the grafts of the same finger nail;there were 10 fingers (8 patients) with the nail bed defects more than one third of the nail beyond the nail plica or two nail bed defects transplanted with toe nail bed.All patients were followed up from 6 months to 30 months with an average of 17 months,all grafts survived very well.No pain,no infection and obvious deformed growth of nail were found,and a sound recovery was obtained in all patients.Excellent and good rates were 87.9% in 23 patients with 29 fingers;poor rate was 12.1% in 3 patients with 4 fingers according to the criteria by Lü Gui-xin.Conclusion The transplantation of middle split-thickness nail bed to repair nail bed defect is simple and easy to operate.The grafted nail can grow in good appearance,and the deformation rate is lower.8 refs,3 figs.
