BACKGROUND: Kinematics studies the movement of the objects using a method of geometry, with strength and quality not taken into consideration; Kinetics major studies the force of people acting on objects and its relationship with the movement of objects. OBJECTIVE: Through an introduction to kinematics and kinetics research equipment, this study was aimed to lead to the current status of kinematics and kinetics, to provide for experimental basis for the research of new equipment and gait experiments. METHODS: Taking "gait, kinetics, kinematics" in English for the search terms, Pubmed database (1999-01/2009-06)was retrieved. Taking "gait, kinematics, kinetics" in Chinese for the search terms, CNKI database (1999-01/2009-06) was searched. Literatures were limited to English and Chinese languages. The kinematics and kinetics research equipment regarding the gait were included, while other kinematics and kinetics experiments were excluded, also outdated and repetitive researches were excluded. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Totally 2 367 literature were obtained from the computer screen, and 33 documents of them were involved for analysis according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, in case of gait analysis method, at home and abroad scholars have carried out extensive studies although the content are quite different, they used identical instruments and methods in the testing of gait, in spite of photography or video recording were applied to calculate and measure kinematic parameters, the force platform was all used to record kinetic parameters. Also there are a small number of studies using the distribution of plantar pressure to measure more precise foot-ground pressure distribution, and then proceed to a comprehensive statistical analysis. Kinetics and kinematics gait analysis is applied not only in rehabilitation medicine, but also widely in athletics sports and the related footwear manufactures, the commonly used method is the plane fixed-point photograph and force platform analysis.

Aim To study the mechanisms of inotropic responses to doxazosin enantiomers in the isolated rat atrium.Methods We analyzed the positive inotropic response to (-)doxazosin and the negative inotropic response to (+)doxazosin in the left atrium of rat u-sing receptor-pharmacological technique.Results In the preparation treated with verapamil,the positive in-otropic responses to 3 μmol·L-1 (-)doxazosin were significantly inhibited from the control level (245.7 1 ± 44.29)mg to (172.50 ±43.34)mg,(P<0.05).In the preparation treated with methylene blue,the posi-tive inotropic responses to 3 μmol·L-1 (-)doxazosin were significantly potentiated from the control level (245.7 1 ±44.29 )mg to (303.33 ±45 .90 )mg,(P<0.05 ).In the preparation treated with H-89 ,the positive inotropic responses to 3,10 and 30 μmol · L-1 (-)doxazosin were (338.57 ±96.86 ) mg, (471.43 ±107.61)mg and (520.00 ±103.44)mg, which were significantly (P<0.05 ~0.01)larger than the control levels of (245.71 ±44.29)mg,(314.29 ±90.34)mg and (357.14 ±68.49 )mg.Treatment with phenoxybenzamine,atropine,propranolol or indo-methacin did not significantly affect the responses to doxazosin enantiomers.Conclusion The positive ino-tropic responses to (-)doxazosin in the isolated left a-trium of rat are partially involved in L-type Ca2+chan-nels and intracellular cGMP level.However,α-adre-noceptors,muscarinic receptors,β-adrenoceptors and cyclooxygenases are not related to the responses to doxazosin enantiomers.

BACKGROUND:The comfortable shoes can absorb or reduce the impact force from the ground. Is the damped system is absent in shoes to relieve the impulse,the feet will be extremely tired,even damage the human knee joint,waist,back and brain. OBJECTIVE:To measure the changes of human plantar pressure by different sole hardness through the measurement system of plantar pressure. DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:An observation experiment was performed in the Shanghai University of Sport between December 2008 and February 2009.PARTICIPANTS:Six volunteers wearing the experimental designed shoes were recruited from Nanjing Institute of Physical Education.METHODS:Three pairs of experimental shoes weighing 103 g were measured with shore hardness tester,as 51,62 and 69 hardness values. Accordingly they were named soft shoes,medium hardness shoes and hard shoes. The subjects were asked to do a 60-minute walk test at the speed of 2 m/s on the running platform with the experimental designed shoes,and they were determined using the insole plantar pressure measurement system of German's Novel style series of Emed-pedar.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE:The pressure,contact area and impulse in the sole of foot.RESULTS:With the increase in hardness soles,the pressure of center plantar was shown to move from the medial first metatarsal outwards by turns. Compared with barefoot walking,the trail length of the center plantar was prolonged in subjects with medium hardness shoes and hard shoes,while shortened in subjects with soft shoes. The total pressure when you walked with soft shoes and medium hardness shoes were reduced than barefoot walking,and the pressure of walking phase wearing these two types of shoes were also reduced,while total pressure and walking phase pressure with hard shoes were both increased compared with barefoot walking. The contact area was similar between soft shoes and medium hardness shoes,but the smallest in the hard shoes. Except the increase in the initial 10 minutes,the soft shoes had no change with the medium hardness shoes. The hard shoes were firstly increased but then declined. The total impulse of medium hardness shoes was the closest to bare feet,while that of soft shoes and hard shoes were increased compared with bare foot.CONCLUSION:The plantar pressure was the greatest in the hard shoes,then medium hardness shoes and last soft shoes;the contact area was the greatest in soft shoes,then medium hardness shoes and last hard shoes;the impulse was the greatest in hard shoes,then soft shoes,and last medium hardness shoes.

Objective: This study aims to analyze the effects of catastrophic disease insurance (CDI), especially to evaluate the influences of CDI on the discrepancy of benefits between the patients covered by the Employee's Medical Insurance (EMI) and the Resident's Medical Insurance (RMI).Methods: The data used in the study are collected from the health insurance database of Zhuhai City in the years of 2012 and 2014.A descriptive analysis is made to depict the general situation of CDI in the city, and a logistic regression model is used to analyze the factors that affect the probability to get the benefits of CDI.Moreover, a triple difference model is built up to probe into the CDI's effects on the discrepancy of reimbursement ratio between patients covered by EMI and RMI.Results: The benefits of CDI favor the patients with old age, high medical expenditures and chronic diseases.When other factors are controlled, patients covered by EMI have lower probability to get CDI benefits than those covered by RMI.Within the patients with high medical expenditures who have gotten the CDI benefits, those covered by EMI enjoy higher reimbursement ratio than those covered by RMI, but CDI decreases the discrepancy by 3.2%.Conclusions: Since the CDI gives more favor to the vulnerable population and narrows the gap of the benefits between EMI and RMI, the policy improves the equity of health security.

The expression of microRNA (miRNA) is closely related to radio-chemosensitivity in glioma stem cells (GSCs).Moreover,the growth of glioma stem cells could be inhibited comprehensively by increasing radio-chemosensitivity and apoptosis,simultaneously with the regulation of a single miRNA,which has been confirmed by some researches.Thereby microRNA is prospective for the adoption as a specific agent in targeted therapy of glioma,so as to increase the radio-chemosensitivity in glioma stem cells.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of thyroid nodules among residents of Ningbo City and to explore the risk factors for thyroid nodules.Methods Totally 3 596 residents aged 6-70 were selected by multistage stratified cluster random sampling in Ningbo City,2011.Thyroid ultrasound examination was performed in all participants,while salt iodine and urinary iodine were measured.Possible risk factors for thyroid nodules were analyzed by single factor and multi-factor logistic regression.Results The prevalence rate of thyroid nodules in residents of Ningbo City was 22.66％ (815/3 596),with standardized prevalence rate of 17.69％.Female [(odds ratio (OR) =2.06,95％ confidence interval (CI) =1.74-2.43],groups of aged 18-(OR =3.42,95％ CI =1.22-9.61),aged 40-(OR =13.06,95％ CI =4.80-35.51),aged 65-(OR =16.67,95％ CI =5.97-46.54) and occasional consumption of seafood habits (less than twice per week,OR =1.23,95％ CI =1.02-1.49) were significant associated with thyroid nodules.Conclusions There is no link Letween iodine nutrition and thyroid nodules.It is demonstrated that female and aged ≥ 18 groups have higher risk of thyroid nodules; frequent consumption of seafood seems to be a protective factor.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the improvement effects of Zhuanggushenjin capsules on osteoporosis induced by reti-noic acid in mice. METHODS:84 mice were randomly divided into normal control group,model control group,positive control group [Gushukang granules,5 g(crude drug)/kg] and Zhuanggushenjin capsules high-dose,medium-dose and low-dose groups [7.80,3.90,1.95 g(crude drug)/kg]. Except for normal control group,those groups were given retinoic acid(90 mg/kg)to induce osteoporosis model. 7 days after modeling,all drug groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically,normal control group and model control group given normal saline intragastrically ,once a day,for consecutive 14 days. ALP activity and the contents of cal-cium and phosphorus in serum and thigh-bone were determined. The body weight, the dry weight, length and diameter of thigh-bone were determined,and organ coefficients (spleen,testicle,ovarium and uterus) were calculated. RESULTS:Compared with normal control group,the activity of ALP in serum of mice increased in model control group,while the contents of calcium and phosphorus,body weight,length and diameter of thigh-bone decreased significantly;spleen coefficients increased,while testi-cle and uterus coefficients decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with model control group,the contents of calcium and phos-phorus increased in Zhuanggushenjin capsules groups,while spleen coefficient decreased;the activity of ALP in serum of mice de-creased in high-dose and medium-dose groups,while body weight,the length of thigh-bone,testicle and uterus coefficients in-creased;diameter of thigh-bone increased in high-dose group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:Zhuanggushenjin capsules can improve retinoic acid-induced osteoporosis in mice to certain extent.
