It has been reported that preoperative rehabilitation reduces the risk of postoperative complications. We examined the factors impacting the efficacy of preoperative rehabilitation. Forty-three cancer patients who underwent abdominal surgery after preoperative rehabilitation at our hospital were assessed". Walkable"was defined as having the ability to walk to the toilet(distance>30 meters)without requiring support. Following the clinical path, if patients became"walkable"by the second day after surgery, they belonged to the smooth group, while the remaining patients belonged to the delayed group. We examined the factors influencing walking ability. The smooth group consisted of 34 patients(79%), and the delayed group consisted of 9 patients(21%). The significant factors related to delays in acquiring walking ability were old age and weakened lower limb function. Improving lower limb function through preoperative rehabilitation may lead to patients acquiring walking ability earlier after surgery, especially in older patients.

Background: This study aims to evaluate the optimal rehabilitation regimen for lower limb dysfunction in stroke patients by analyzing the effects of proprioceptive training (PT) in combination with different rehabilitation interventions.
Methods: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published up to April 23, 2024, were searched from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and SinoMed. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool (ROB 2.

Purpose: To systematically evaluate the effects of mind-body exercise on physical ability, mental health and quality of life in stroke patients.
Methods: According to the PRISMA statement, we searched Web of science, Pubmed, Embase, Sinomed, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP databases to collect randomized controlled trials on the effects of mind-body exercise on improving balance function, motor capacity, walking function, depression and quality of life in stroke patients. The search was conducted in January 2024.

Background: Increasing one's walking speed is an important goal in post-stroke gait rehabilitation. Insufficient arm swing in people post-stroke might limit their ability to propel the body forward and increase walking speed.
Purpose: To investigate the speed-dependent changes (and their contributing factors) in the arm swing of persons post-stroke.

The human microbiota may influence the effectiveness of drug therapy by activating or inactivating the pharmacological properties of drugs. Computational methods have demonstrated their ability to screen reliable microbe-drug associations and uncover the mechanism by which drugs exert their functions. However, the previous prediction methods failed to completely exploit the neighborhood topologies of the microbe and drug entities and the diverse correlations between the microbe-drug entity pair and the other entities.
