To explore the effect of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) nursing combined with limbs training on shoulder joint range of motion and neurological function of patients with rotator cuff injury after surgery.60 patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, with 30 cases in each group. The experimental group received ERAS nursing combined with rehabilitation training, while the control group received routine nursing. The prognostic effects of nursing care and shoulder joint range of motion between the two groups were compared.There were differences in general indicators between the two groups (P = .001). There was no significant difference in the evaluation indexes of the two groups of patients (P > .05). The visual analog scale score and the degree of swelling of the affected limb of the experimental group were lower than those of the control group (P = .001; .001). After 1, 6, 12 weeks of treatment, the Constant-Murley, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons and University of California-Los Angeles scores of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group (P = .001; .001; .001). After 2, 4 weeks of treatment, the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale scores of the experimental group were lower than those of the control group (P = .001). The self-efficacy evaluation of the experimental group was significantly better than that of the control group (P = .001); the complication rate was lower than that of the control group (P = .006).Compared with simple postoperative nursing recovery, ERAS nursing combined with limbs training can improve the exercise capacity of the shoulder joint and the recovery of neurological function, reduce the occurrence of complications.
Background
Gene regulatory network analysis has found that long noncoding ribonucleic acids (lncRNAs) are strongly associated with the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis.
Objectives
To determine the differential expression of lncRNAs and microRNAs (miRNAs) in normal chondrocytes and those from a model of articular chondrocyte degeneration.
Methods
Chondrocytes were cultured from cartilage obtained from patients diagnosed with osteoarthritis of the knee. Stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) was used to induce their degeneration. Total RNA was extracted, analyzed, amplified, labeled, and hybridized on a chip to determine expression. The set of enriched differentially expressed miRNAs was analyzed by gene ontology and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes to describe the functional properties of the key biological processes and pathways. We conducted a bioinformatics analysis using Cytoscape to elucidate the interactions between miRNAs and proteins.
Results
We found that the expression of 186 lncRNAs was significantly different in the model of chondrocyte degeneration, in which 88 lncRNAs were upregulated, and 98 were downregulated. Expression of 684 miRNAs was significantly different. Analysis of the protein–protein interaction (PPI) network indicated that the genes for CXCL10, ISG15, MYC, MX1, OASL, IFIT1, RSAD2, MX2, IFI44L, and BST2 are the top 10 core genes, identifying the most important functional modules to elucidate the differential expression of miRNAs.
Conclusions
These data may provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms of chondrocyte degeneration in osteoarthritis, and the identification of lncRNAs and miRNAs may provide potential targets for the differential diagnosis and therapy of osteoarthritis.
