BACKGROUND:Health has been paid more and more attention in modern society, the health of those special groups, such as the elderly and the disabled, should also be brought to the forefront. As fitness equipment is more and more popular in contemporary, our focus should be transferred to the use of fitness equipment for these special groups.
OBJECTIVE:To put forward the design strategy of fitness equipment control interface, for the special groups to use common fitness equipment comfortably and conveniently.
METHODS:Based on the research of existing fitness equipment control interface, according to the usage habits and cognitive awareness of special groups on control interface, a new design strategy has been put forward using the general design method and ergonomics.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Based on the existing 45 kinds of exercise bikes, 84 kinds of running machines and 129 kinds of treadmil fitness equipments, we found that these equipments are designed for common users in the aspects of design and production process and control interface. Universal design is a design concept beyond the lack of capacity to meet the different needs of different populations, and designed products can reduce or even eliminate the difference in the ability of special populations and the general population in use. The new strategy makes design of fitness equipment control interface generalized and good man-machine interactive, which can meet the demand of the special groups and help them do fitness exercise to improve their health and body function.

ObjectiveTo explore the efficacy of sevoflurane or propofol combined with remifentanil during the maintenance of general anesthesia in thyroid gland surgery.MethodsSixty patients underwent thyroid gland surgery were randomly divided into tow groups.Once the larynx mask was intubated, anesthesia was maintained with propofol(the effect site concentration was 2.5 ～3.5mg/L) and remifentanil(the effect site concentration was 4.5 ～5.5μg/L) by TCI technique in group P,but with sevoflurane(2％～4％) and remfentanil(the effect site concentration was 2.5 ～4.0g/L)in group S.The depth of anesthesia was measured by the A-line TM AEP Monitor which expressed as A-Line ARX Index TM(AAI).All patients' SBP,DBP and HR were recorded at eight time points: before induction time(T0) ,after induction but before larynx mask intubation time(T1) ,intubate larynx mask time(T2) ,cut skin time (T3), separate thyroid gland time (T4), cut thyroid gland time (T5), remove larynx mask time (T6) ,leave the operation room time(T7).The emergency time,the conscious of the patients after anesthesia and the side effects were also recorded.ResultsThere were no significant differences between the groups with respect to age,gender,weight,the duration of operation,the emergency time and the conscious of the patients after anesthesia.SBP,DBP,HR of the patients in both groups showed no significant difference at T0,T1 ,T2, T3 (all P ＞ 0.05), but had significant difference at T4,T5,T6, T7 (all P ＜ 0.05).Compare with group P,the incidentce of restlessness, dizziness, drowsiness, rigor and pain was significantly lower in group S(all P ＜0.05).The incidentce of nausea,vomit and aspiration did not appear in both groups.ConclusionBoth groups showed good anesthesia effects and the patients also emerged from anesthesia quickly.But the anesthesia maintained with sevoflurane and remifentanil could bring more stable hemodynamics and lower incidence rate of the side effects.

Objective To compare the effects of patient's tolerance to laryngeal mask airway (LMA) and tracheal tube (TT) on the appropriate level of sevoflurane anesthesia.Methods Eighty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 30-60 yr weighing 50-70 kg undergoing elective thyroid or breast surgery were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=40 each):LMA group and TT group.Anesthesia wag induced with propofol 1.6mg/kg,fentanyl 3μg/kg and recuronium 0.6mg/kg.LMA or tracheal tube was inserted,and the patients were mechanically ventilated.Anesthesia was maintained with inhalation of 1.5%-3.0% sevoflurane and 50% N2O in O2 in group LMA,and with 2.5%-5.0% sevoflurane and 50% N2O in O2 in group TT.The flow of O2 and N2O was 0.7-1.0L/min,and the concentration of sevofluranee was adjusted to maintain AAI at 15-25.ECG,HR,MAP,SpO2,PETCO2,AEP and end-tidal sevoflurane concentration were continuonsly monitored.The end-tidal sevoflurane concentration was recorded at 1,5 and 10 min after LMA/TT was placed (T1-3),at 1h after skin incision (T4) and at the end of operation before removal of LMA or extubation (T5).The recovery time of consciousness,adverse cardiovascular events and adverse reactions were recorded.Results The end-tidal sevoflurane concentration was significantly lower,the recovery time of consciousness and removal of LMA or extubation time were shorter,and the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events and adverse reactions was lower in LMA group than in TT group.Conclusion At the same depth of anesthesia (AAI 15-25),sevoflurane concentration is significantly lower in LMA group than in TT group,with fewer complications and smaller cardiovascular reaction.

Objective To evaluate the effect of age on the median-effective target plasma concentration (EC50) of propofol inhibiting body movement evoked by gastroscopy in the patients.Methods Ninety adult patients of both sexes,of ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,with body mass index 19-25 kg/m2,scheduled for elective gastroscopy,were divided into 3 groups according to age (n =30 each):18-39 yr group (Ⅰ group),40-64 yr group (Ⅱ group) and 65-85 yr group (Ⅲ group).In Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ groups,propofol was given by target-controlled infusion with the initial target concentrations of 2.5,2.0 and 1.5 μg/ml,respectively,and gastroscopy was performed when the target concentration was achieved.Body movement was defined as the directional movement in head or four extremities during gastroscopy.The target plasma concentration of propofol was determined by up-and-down sequential trial.Each time the plasma concentration of propofol increased/decreased by 0.5 μg/ml in the next patient depending on whether or not body movement developed.The EC50 and 95 ％ confidence interval of propofol inhibiting gastroscopy-evoked body movement were determined using Probit analysis.Results The EC50 (95 ％ confidence interval) of propofol was 4.2(3.8-4.5),4.1(3.7-4.4) and 2.4(1.8-2.7) μg/ml in Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ groups,respectively.There was no significant difference in the EC50 of propofol between group Ⅱ and group Ⅰ.The EC50 of propofol was significantly lower in group Ⅲ than in Ⅰ and Ⅱ groups.Conclusion Age affects propofol-induced analgesia in patients with visceral pain,and the potency of propofol inhibiting visceral pain during gastroscopy in the elderly patients is significantly enhanced as compared with that in the young and middle-aged patients.

Objective:To explore the correlation between SAM domain and HD domain-containing protein 1 (SAMHD1) and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in lung adenocarcinoma.Methods:The expression of SAMHD1 in lung adenocarcinoma and its effect on prognosis were analyzed by online database GEPIA and Kaplan-Meier Plotter. The expression of SAMHD1 in lung adenocarcinoma cell lines was detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and Western blotting. SAMHD1 gene was silenced in H1975, H1299 and LLC cells by small interfering RNA transfection and lentivirus infection, respectively. The mRNA and protein expression levels of PD-L1 in lung adenocarcinoma cells of control group, siSAMHD1-1 group and siSAMHD1-2 group were detected by qPCR and Western blotting. The membrane PD-L1 level was detected by flow cytometry. A mouse lung adenocarcinoma xenograft model was constructed. The PD-L1 levels in the tumor tissues of control group and shSAMHD1 group were detected by immunohistochemistry. Cell proliferation activities of the control, siSAMHD1-1 and siSAMHD1-2 groups were detected by CCK-8 assays.Results:The GEPIA database results showed that the mRNA expression of SAMHD1 in lung adenocarcinoma was lower than that in normal lung tissue (4.81±0.90 vs. 5.99±0.76, t=20.67, P<0.001) .

The expression level of PD-L1 in the siSAMHD1-1 and siSAMHD1-2 groups was higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05) . Flow cytometry results showed that in H1975 cells, the fluorescence intensity of membrane PD-L1 in the control, siSAMHD1-1 and siSAMHD1-2 groups were 246.83±27.59, 325.60±8.00 and 308.93±7.60 ( F=17.56, P=0.003) , and in H1299 cells, the fluorescence intensity of membrane PD-L1 in the three groups were 959.00±6.25, 1 084.33±7.64 and 1 085.33±21.22 ( F=86.74, P<0.001) . The fluorescence intensity of PD-L1 in the siSAMHD1-1 group and siSAMHD1-2 group was higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05) .
