“…External fixation of the elbow joint is required in the early stage after manual reduction, which may easily lead to the loss of elbow joint function. Strong internal fixation provides a prerequisite for the early postoperative functional rehabilitation training of patients [13,14]. Immobilization of the affected limb for too long can easily lead to obstruction of lymphatic and venous return, fibrin deposition, and serous fibrous exudation in the tissues around the joint.…”

A nanoscaffold is a porous scaffold. It injects antibiotics, cells, and polymer particles into damaged cavities in the form of injectables and forms hydrogels after the molecules self-assemble at the injection site. Sports rehabilitation is a new frontier field integrating sports, health, and medicine, also known as physical therapy. It is the use of various sports methods for the injured or disabled, so that they can fully recover their physical functions and spirits, and can make them reintegrate into society. It mainly studies the relationship between sports and health. Among the tissue engineering scaffolds used as seed cell carriers, nanomaterials are playing an increasingly important role in the study of joint injury and repair due to their unique effects such as cell adhesion and proliferation. The purpose of this paper is to study a reliable nanoscaffold material for the treatment of patients with hip injuries in athletes and to observe its actual effect in combination with sports rehabilitation therapy. In this paper, an electrospinning method was proposed to prepare nanoscaffold materials, and the nanoscaffold materials were applied to the exercise rehabilitation process of two groups of hip patients, and the data of the patients’ rehabilitation were calculated. The results showed that the OD value of the cells in the exercise rehabilitation therapy using nanofiber scaffolds increased significantly, and the average daily growth rate of the OD value was 0.112. And the rehabilitation after 5 months was 19.8 points higher in hip range of motion score, 11.3 points higher in overall function score, and 6.2% lower in complication rate compared with ordinary exercise rehabilitation therapy. Therefore, it can be concluded that the therapy of the nanofiber scaffold material combined with exercise rehabilitation can more efficiently help patients with hip joint injury to recover, and the probability of complications is lower compared with the traditional exercise rehabilitation therapy.

Background: Differences in structure and function of the hand and wrist between distinct populations affect our approach to treatment, expectations and functional outcomes. The aim of this study is to compare wrist motion and grip strength in Caucasian, Chinese and Japanese populations. Methods: A total of 424 normal wrists were evaluated that included 99 Japanese, 139 Caucasian and 186 Southern Chinese. Demographic information collected included age, gender, hand dominance and occupation. Evaluation included measurement of active motion and grip strength. Motion was measured using a goniometer. Grip strength was evaluated using a JAMAR dynamometer. Demographic information and evaluation was compared among the three cohorts using statistical tests. Multivariate mixed-effect model was further used to assess the racial impact on each evaluation controlling for demographic factors as well as two-hand measurements of everyone. Results: There was no difference in global wrist motion between the cohorts. We did find significant differences between the cohorts in all discrete measurements. Conclusions: Differences in wrist motion and grip strength between normal Japanese, Chinese and Caucasian populations may be due to bony structure rather than soft tissue properties. Knowledge of these disparities can provide references for personalised wrist examination, diagnosis, treatment and comparison of outcomes between different cohorts. Level of Evidence: Level III (Diagnostic)

Introduction Scapholunate instability is one of the most frequent types of wrist instability, but optimal management is not established. This research aims to identify current conservative management strategies for stage-one scapholunate instability and how these interventions are evaluated in the UK. Methods A cross-sectional online survey of UK physiotherapists and occupational therapists with self-reported experience in the rehabilitation of stage-one scapholunate instability (ReSOS), was developed using the CROSS guideline and a clinical vignette. The frequency of treatment strategies was collated via a five-point Likert-type scale and evaluation strategies via fixed-response answers at three-to-six, seven-to-eleven and after 12 weeks post-injury. Data were analysed descriptively. Results Forty-three electronic surveys were completed and analysed. Thirty physiotherapists and 13 occupational therapists responded, with 90% working in the NHS. Activity advice and education was the most frequently used treatment at all time-points (100%, 98%, 98%). Quick-DASH was most frequently used region-specific patient reported outcome measure at all time-points (72%, 60%, 67%). Discussion Despite some identified themes, including neuromuscular rehabilitation strategies, the supporting evidence is limited in the ReSOS. It is unclear what rehabilitation and evaluation strategies are optimal and the development of a consensus on best practice is recommended.
