Analysis of Spatiotemporal Evolution of Coordinated Development Between Transportation Infrastructure and Ecological Environment in the Yangtze River Economic Belt
The coupling and coordinated development of transportation infrastructure and ecological environment is an important way to achieve win-win economic, social, and ecological benefits. This study analyzes the coupling and coordinated development between transportation infrastructure and ecological environment in the Yangtze River Economic Belt. Based on panel data from 11 provinces in the Yangtze River Economic Belt from 2007 to 2022, establish their respective indicator systems and use entropy method to measure the comprehensive level of the two. Through the perspective of spatiotemporal differentiation, this study analyzes the changes in the coupling and coordinated development level of transportation infrastructure and ecological environment in 11 provinces. It is found that the overall coupling and coordinated development level of each province has significantly improved, but there are obvious regional differences. In the future, each province should formulate more precise and effective policy measures based on its own actual situation, strengthen regional cooperation and communication, and jointly promote the coupling and coordinated development of transportation infrastructure and ecological environment protection in the Yangtze River Economic Belt
Research on the Application of "Internet Plus" Rehabilitation Nursing in Children with Cerebral Palsy
Abstract: Currently, cerebral palsy has emerged as a severe disease deserving significant attention. Amidst the thriving development of internet technology, the "Internet+" platform has brought new support to the medical field. This study aims to explore the application effects of "Internet+"-based rehabilitation nursing for children with cerebral palsy. A total of 60 children with cerebral palsy were randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group. The control group received conventional rehabilitation nursing, while the experimental group underwent "Internet+"-based rehabilitation nursing intervention. Comparisons were made between the two groups in terms of overall disease recovery, fine motor function, gross motor function, activities of daily living (ADL), nursing satisfaction, and quality of life. The results showed that the experimental group surpassed the control group in motor function, ADL, disease recovery efficiency, nursing satisfaction, and quality of life assessments, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). The application of "Internet+"-based rehabilitation nursing for children with cerebral palsy can lead to more desirable overall nursing outcomes.
