BackgroundDifference between combined inspiratory and expiratory muscle training in same respiratory cycle or different cycles remained unclarified. We explored the difference between both patterns of combined trainings in patients with COPD.MethodsIn this randomized, open-label, controlled trial, stable COPD subjects trained for 48 minutes daily, for 8 weeks, using a monitoring device for quality control. Ninety-two subjects were randomly and equally assigned for sham training, inspiratory muscle training(IMT), combined inspiratory and expiratory muscle training in same cycle(CTSC) or combined inspiratory and expiratory muscle training in different cycles(CTDC). Respiratory muscle strength, as the primary endpoint, was measured before and after training. Registry: ClinicalTrials.gov (identifier: NCT02326181).ResultsRespiratory muscle training improved maximal inspiratory pressure(PImax), while no significant difference was found in PImax among IMT, CTSC and CTDC. Maximal expiratory pressure(PEmax) in CTSC and CTDC was greater than IMT(P = 0.026, and P=0.04, respectively) and sham training (P = 0.001). IMT, CTSC, and CTDC shortened inhalation and prolonged exhalation(P < 0.01). Subjects with respiratory muscle weakness in IMT and CTDC exhibited greater increase in PImax than those without. IMT, CTSC and CTDC showed no difference in symptoms and quality of life scales among themselves(P > 0.05).ConclusionBoth patterns of CTSC and CTDC improved inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength, while IMT alone only raised PImax. Respiratory muscle training might change the respiratory cycles, and be more beneficial for COPD patients with inspiratory muscle weakness.

Objective: The study investigated isthmocele rate, residual myometrium thickness, blood loss, and closure lengths by comparing the classical primary continuous(CPCS) and novel technique uterine suturing (NTUS) after caesarian. Design: All patients were divided into two groups according to suture technique. Setting: CPCS was applied to the patients in Group-1, while the NTUS was applied in Group-2 as Z suture on both corners and 8 sutures in the remaining middle part incision closure. Population: A total of 402 C/S patients were included in this single-center prospective clinical study. Main Outcome Measures: Patients in the NTUS group bleed lesser than in the CPCS groups (p<0.0001). Incision length after closure was longer in the CPCS than in the NTUS (p<0.0001). Similarly, the number of sutures we applied was higher in the CPCS (p<0.0001). In the comparison of residual myometrium thickness, the mean values measured 197±50 mm in the NTUS and 146±39 mm in the CPCS (p<0.0001). Results: Residual myometrium thickness showed a negative strong correlation with incision length after closure (r=-0,436; p<0.0001), how many times the needles have been passed (r=-0,423; p<0.0001) and time for suturing (r=-0,237; p<0.0001). NTUS and CPCS groups were similar in comparison to isthmocele. Conclusions: The NTUS, termed Erkayiran’s suture, showed a successful reflection in our surgical cesarean section application compared to the classical suture. Although the occurrence of isthmocele in patients was similar, results were quite successful operationally in terms of both minimal blood loss and increased residual myometrium thickness.

Prospective Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Early Protected Movement and Splinting for Fifth Metacarpal Neck Fracture

et al. 2021

Background: Fifth metacarpal neck fractures account for 20% of all hand fractures, yet there remains debate with respect to management, particularly when conservative treatment is initiated. The objective of this study is to compare functional and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in patients treated with early protected movement or splint immobilization. Methods: This national multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial compared 2 groups; elastic bandage with early protected movement versus immobilization with splinting. Demographic characteristics were collected at baseline. Functional outcomes (grip strength testing) and PROs (Brief Michigan Hand Questionnaire [bMHQ]) were collected at 4, 8, and 12 weeks post-intervention. Grip strength values of the injured hand were normalized to both the non-injured hand (at baseline), and the Canadian reference values. Results: Thirty-seven participants from 5 Canadian centers were randomized into the splint (n = 21) or elastic bandage group (n = 16). There were no significant differences in the bMHQ score between the splint (52.1 ± 27.2) or the elastic bandage (46.6 ± 20.4) groups ( P = .51). There were no differences in baseline grip strength between the splint (15.3 ± 8.9 kg) and elastic bandage (19.9 ± 7.5 kg) groups. At 8 weeks, the elastic bandage group had a significantly higher grip strength than the splint group (93% vs 64%, respectively: P < .05), when standardized as a percentage of the Canadian reference values. Conclusion: Patients with Boxer’s fractures treated with early protected movement had better functional outcomes by 8 weeks post-treatment as compared to the Canadian reference values of those treated with immobilization and splinting. Providers should manage Boxer’s fractures with early protected movement.
