It interferes with day-to-day living activities and is associated with the major eye blinding diseases. Numerous tests are used to carry out diagnosis of VI, but their outcomes are unreliable. Objective: To develop a functional scoring system, for accessing the ailment of patients with VI based on observations and clinical symptoms. Methods and Findings: We prepared the list of all possible symptoms that were associated with low vision. Based on this list, we established a scoring system, Nutech Functional Score (NFS), which is a 33-point positional and directional scoring system that evaluates the patient with VI. The scores have been converted into numeric values for conducting probability based studies. All the symptoms are graded between 1 to 5 that runs in BAD → GOOD direction. Conclusion: NFS is a distinctive tool that can be used globally to evaluate the patients with low vision.展开更多
目的:探讨跖骨截骨联合外侧软组织松解治疗拇外翻的效果。方法:选取2018年4月—2022年1月溧阳市中医医院收治的60例拇外翻患者,采用简单随机法将患者分为两组,各30例,参照组采用第一个跖骨Chevron或者Scarf治疗,试验组在第一个跖骨Chev...目的:探讨跖骨截骨联合外侧软组织松解治疗拇外翻的效果。方法:选取2018年4月—2022年1月溧阳市中医医院收治的60例拇外翻患者,采用简单随机法将患者分为两组,各30例,参照组采用第一个跖骨Chevron或者Scarf治疗,试验组在第一个跖骨Chevron或者Scarf截骨基础上采用外侧软组织松解。术后24周,评估患者术后恢复情况[拇外翻角(HVA)、第1、2跖骨间夹角(IMA)],踝功能评分,肿胀值,疼痛程度视觉模拟评分法(VAS)评分,统计患者骨性愈合时间。结果:术前,两组拇外翻患者IMA、HVA比较差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05),术后,两组拇外翻患者IMA、HVA均降低,试验组IMA、HVA均低于参照组(P<0.05)。术后两组拇外翻患者美国骨科足踝外科协会评分(AOFAS)评分均升高,肿胀值均降低(P<0.05);试验组AOFAS评分较参照组高,肿胀值较参照组低(P<0.05)。与术前比较,两组术后1、2、5 d VAS评分均降低(P<0.05),与术后1 d比较,两组术后2 d VAS评分均升高,术后5 d VAS评分均降低(P<0.05),与术后2 d比较,两组术后5 d VAS评分均降低(P<0.05);试验组术后2、5 d VAS评分均低于参照组(P<0.05)。试验组、参照组骨性愈合时间分别为(2.83±0.35)、(3.95±0.27)个月,试验组骨性愈合时间较参照组短(P<0.05)。结论:跖骨截骨联合外侧软组织松解能够促进拇外翻患者术后恢复,缓解术后疼痛及肿胀,有利于跖趾关节恢复,值得在临床中推广与应用。展开更多
