1.Study on Neural Co-activation during Human Upper Limb Muscle Fatigue Based on Surface Electromyography
Chinese Journal of Sports Medicine 2017;36(4):290-295
Objectives To observe the co-activation phenomenon during exercise fatigue induced by the proximal muscles on the upper limbs.Methods Sixteen undergraduates not majoring in sports participated in this study,and their left arms were chosen as the observed arms and right arms were selected as the weighted arms.The weighted arm was alternatively in the state of relaxation without any load and fatigue after bending and extending elbow joints to uphold a 5 kg dumbbell.However,the observed arm kept weighing a 4 kg dumbbell with 90 degrees elbow flexion until the muscles were exhausted.The surface electromyography of biceps brachii and triceps brachii of the observed arms was measured using the ME6000.And the integrated surface electromyography (IEMG),root of mean square (RMS),mean power frequency (MPF)and median frequency (MF)were further analyzed.Results The IEMG and RMS of biceps brachii and triceps brachii of the observed arms increased gradually after the exercise began (P<0.05)regardless of in the relaxed state or in the in the state of weighing a 5 kg dumbbell for the weighted arm,but in the state of weighting a 5 kg dumbbell the IEMG and RMS increased more significantly (P<0.01),Meanwhile the electrical activities of the triceps brachii as an antagonistic muscle were intensively inhibited.The changes of MPF and MF of biceps brachii in the observed arms were more significant in the state of exercise fatigue than in the relaxed state (P<0.01),but without such an impact on the triceps brachii.Conclusions The fatigue in one arm can trigger contingent changes in sEMG time domain and frequency domain indexes of its contralateral parallel muscles,suggesting that sEMG changes of upper limb proximal muscles have the co-activation effect.
2.Necessity and feasibility of screening for colorectal cancer in China.
Chinese Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery 2011;14(1):16-18
Incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer has increased significantly in recent years. Screening for colorectal cancer is the most effective method to decrease mortality. Colorectal adenoma is the precancerous lesion of colorectal cancer and can be detected through colonoscopy, which is the crucial in the early diagnosis and early treatment for colorectal cancer. The first step of screening is the selection of target population and the second step is colorectal examination. The selection of candidate for screening has direct effect on the efficacy of screening. The methods in common use include fecal occult blood test, questionnaire for high risk factors of colorectal cancer, colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy, and CT virtual colonoscopy. Among those, colonoscopy is the most reliable method and widely used in the screening for colorectal cancer.

The current study indicates that the abnormal expression of lncRNA is closely related with breast cancer progression. Some lncRNA takes part in regulating the process of breast cancer invasion and metastasis. This article reviews the abnormal expression of lncRNA in breast cancer and the relevance with breast cancer invasion and metastasis, which is expected to provide new strategy for breast cancer diagnosis and treatment.
10.Advances in Studies on Missed Diagnosis of Intestinal Polyps and Related Factors in Colonoscopic Examination
Chinese Journal of Gastroenterology 2016;21(2):115-117
In recent years,the incidence of colorectal polyps and colorectal carcinoma showed a trend to increase gradually. Statistical analysis demonstrated that 80% of colorectal carcinoma were developed from colorectal adenoma,and adenomatous polyps accounted for 1 / 2-1 / 3 of colorectal polyps. Endoscopy is the golden standard for examining intestinal lesions,yet it is not completely correct and certain missed diagnosis has occurred. Factors causing missed diagnosis of colonoscopy include lesion factors and non-lesion factors. This article reviewed the advances in studies on missed diagnosis of intestinal polyps and related factors in colonoscopic examination.
