Pulsed arterial spin-labeling, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) are useful for predicting glioma survival. We performed a comparative review of multiple parameters obtained using these pulse sequences on 3-Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) including the molecular status and Ki-67 labeling index in newly diagnosed supratentorial glioblastomas. ⋯ Our findings indicate that the preoperative rCBF ratio and Ki-67 labeling index are useful parameters for predicting the overall survival of cerebral glioblastomas.

To analyze artificial intelligence image-assisted knee ligament injury repair and femoral nerve block analgesia after surgery. ⋯ The artificial intelligence image-assisted diagnosis system for analysis and processing of multiparametric magnetic resonance images is useful for clinical decision making, reducing physicians' labor intensity, improving efficiency, and lowering the rate of misdiagnosis.

The lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) was a revolutionary approach devised by Luiz Pimenta that allowed the surgeon to access the lumbar spine through the major psoas muscle. Although the traditional LLIF had enabled enormous advances, the technique has its drawbacks. A new concept to perform the traditional LLIF has been proposed, with the patient being prone to decubitus with slightly extended legs. Our study aims to analyze the early outcomes of patients who had undergone the prone transpsoas (PTP) for degenerative spine pathologies including the L4/5 level. ⋯ The prone transpsoas is safe and feasible for approaching the L4/5 disk, presenting with a low rate of complication and new-onset neurologic deficits.

To use computed tomography image analysis of iterative reconstruction algorithm to understand effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation of quadriceps on motor function rehabilitation after total knee arthroplasty. ⋯ Neuromuscular electrical stimulation of the quadriceps muscle early after total knee arthroplasty helps to improve the function of the knee extension device and accelerate functional rehabilitation. Computed tomography has found that changes in tibial subchondral bone plate and subchondral cancellous bone in patients with knee osteoarthritis are mainly due to destruction of ultrastructural homeostasis. This change may be the cause of knee osteoarthritis.

The study aimed to provide a guideline for continuous rehabilitation nursing for patients with severe finger replantation, and establish a satellite contact point for patients with severe finger replantation after discharge, so as to ensure scientific and effective rehabilitation training after discharge and explore the role of continuous rehabilitation nursing measurement in severe finger rehabilitation and neurovascular preservation. ⋯ Continuous rehabilitation nursing measures should be taken after the replantation of the severed finger after neurovascular preservation, which provides standardized rehabilitation training standards for patients with replantation of severed finger after discharge, improves patient training compliance, promotes hand function recovery as soon as possible, and enables patients to return to society as soon as possible, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
