Despite networked cognitive training has been demonstrated to enhance cognitive function in MCI, its effectiveness for negative emotions is still unknown. This review aimed to exam the influences of networked cognitive training on negative emotions and quality of life in people with MCI. Methods: Searches for eligible studies were conducted using PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Psyc INFO, CNKI, Wanfang database, VIP database, and Sinomed. The retrieval time limit was set from their inception to 17 December 2025. The articles were reviewed and extracted by two researchers, and their quality was evaluated using the Cochrane risk-of-bias assessment tool. Subsequently, a meta-analysis was carried out utilizing RevMan 5.4 software. Results: The review comprised 13 randomized controlled trials with 626 individuals. The meta-analysis demonstrated that networked cognitive training significantly improved depression (SMD = -0.36;95% CI [-0.73, -0.00];p = .050), anxiety (SMD = -0.32;95% CI [-0.57, -0.06];p < .050), and quality of life (MD = 2.54;95% CI [0.98, 4.10];p < .001). In terms of the comparison of apathy, the effect of intervention was unclear. Conclusions: From these meta-analysis results, networked cognitive training may help patients for MCI with their anxiety, depression, and overall quality of life. However, because there are so few randomized controlled trials available, the evidence regarding apathy is still ambiguous. More thorough randomized controlled trials with larger samples are necessary to verify the significance of networked cognitive training on apathy and to consolidate the findings.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Orthopaedic surgical education has traditionally depended on the apprenticeship model of“see one,do one,teach one”.However,reduced operative exposure,stricter work-hour regulations,medicolegal constraints,and patient safety concerns have constrained its practicality.Simulation-based training has become a reliable,safe,and cost-efficient alternative.Dry lab techniques,especially virtual and augmented reality,make up 78%of current dry lab research,whereas wet labs still set the standard for anatomical realism.AIM To evaluate the effectiveness,limitations,and future directions of wet and dry lab simulation in orthopaedic training.METHODS A scoping review was carried out across four databases-PubMed,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,and EBSCOhost-up to 2025.Medical Subject Headings included:"Orthopaedic Education","Wet Lab","Dry Lab","Simulation Training","Virtual Reality",and"Surgical Procedure".Eligible studies focused on orthopaedic or spinal surgical education,employed wet or dry lab techniques,and assessed training effectiveness.Exclusion criteria consisted of non-English publications,abstracts only,non-orthopaedic research,and studies unrelated to simulation.Two reviewers independently screened titles,abstracts,and full texts,resolving discrepancies with a third reviewer.RESULTS From 1851 records,101 studies met inclusion:78 on dry labs,7 on wet labs,4 on both.Virtual reality(VR)simulations were most common,with AI increasingly used for feedback and assessment.Cadaveric training remains the gold standard for accuracy and tactile feedback,while dry labs-especially VR-offer scalability,lower cost(40%-60%savings in five studies),and accessibility for novices.Senior residents prefer wet labs for complex tasks;juniors favour dry labs for basics.Challenges include limited transferability data,lack of standard outcome metrics,and ethical concerns about cadaver use and AI assessment.CONCLUSION Wet and dry labs each have unique strengths in orthopaedic training.A hybrid approach combining both,supported by standardised assessments and outcome studies,is most effective.Future efforts should aim for uniform reporting,integrating new technologies,and policy support for hybrid curricula to enhance skills and patient care.

文摘Conventional surgical teaching techniques face several challenges,highlighting a necessity for ongoing innovation in ophthalmology education to align with the evolving demands of clinical practice.The recent rapid advancement of computer technology has enabled the integration of virtual reality(VR)into medical training,thereby revolutionizing ophthalmic surgical education through VRbased educational methods.VR technology offers a safe,risk-free environment for trainees to practice repeatedly,enhancing surgical skills and accelerating the learning curve without compromising patient safety.This research outlines the application of VR technology in ophthalmic surgical skills training,particularly in cataract and vitreoretinal surgery.Including assessing the effectiveness of intraocular surgery training systems,evaluating skills transfer to the operating room,comparing it with wet lab cataract surgery training,and enhancing non-dominant hand training for cataract surgery,among other aspects.Additionally,this paper will identify the limitations of VR technology in ocular surgical skills training,offer improvement strategies,and detail the advantages and prospects,with the objective of guiding subsequent researchers.
文摘Stroke patients experience varying degrees of upper limb functional impairment.Although bilateral arm training can help stroke patients recover movement after stroke,little is known about the way in which the brain and muscles work together during this type of training.To address this,we conducted a cross-sectional study at The Seventh Affiliated Hospital,Sun Yat-sen University in China,where we observed the connection between brain and muscle activity during bilateral upper limb training in 21 stroke patients and 17 healthy controls.We used functional near-infrared spectroscopy and surface electromyography to measure changes in cerebral cortex oxygenation and upper limb muscle contraction signals,respectively.The results showed that,compared with the healthy control group,stroke patients had reduced functional connectivity and more irregular muscle activity in the affected flexor muscle during bilateral upper limb training.Moreover,we found a significant correlation between the surface electromyographic signal characteristics of upper limb muscles and cerebral oxygenation indicators of multiple brain regions in stroke patients.These findings indicate that bilateral upper limb training is an effective rehabilitation method that improves upper limb motor function in stroke patients by promoting brain functional connectivity and improving muscle activity patterns.
文摘[Objectives]To investigate the clinical effects of implementing structured phased rehabilitation training,in addition to conventional rehabilitation,on shoulder joint function and pain alleviation in patients with rotator cuff injuries managed conservatively.[Methods]Eighty patients diagnosed with rotator cuff injury were selected and randomly assigned to either the control group or the experimental group,each comprising 40 individuals.The control group received conventional rehabilitation treatment,whereas the experimental group underwent phased rehabilitation training in addition to the conventional treatment for 6 weeks.Assessments were conducted prior to treatment,6 weeks following treatment,and 8 weeks after the completion of treatment(follow-up period).The visual analogue scale(VAS)was employed to evaluate pain intensity,the Constant-Murley score was utilized to assess shoulder joint function,and the shoulder joint range of motion was measured.[Results]Prior to treatment,no statistically significant differences were observed between the two patient groups across all measured indicators(P>0.05).Following 6 weeks of treatment and throughout the follow-up period,both groups exhibited significant reductions in VAS scores compared to baseline measurements,alongside improvements in Constant-Murley scores and shoulder joint range of motion(P<0.05).Furthermore,the magnitude of improvement in the experimental group was significantly greater than that in the control group(P<0.05).[Conclusions]Phased rehabilitation training can enhance shoulder joint function and alleviate pain in patients with rotator cuff injuries beyond the effects of conventional rehabilitation treatment,demonstrating notable clinical application value.
