1.Improvement of Body Function with Physical Exercise in People with Disabilities (review)
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2017;23(3):315-318
Based on the theory and approach of International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), the literatures on the improvement of physical function by physical exercise were reviewed. People with disabilities can improve their body functions, in-cluding mental function, cardiovascular, blood, immune and respiratory function and neuromuscular skeletal and motor related functions via sport and exercise rehabilitation. Some advice was suggested about sports rehabilitation for the disabled.

In this paper, microcrystalline cellulose WJ101 was used as a model material to investigate the effect of various process parameters on granule yield and friability after dry granulation with a single factor and the effect of comprehensive inspection process parameters on the effect of granule yield and friability, then the correlation between process parameters and granule quality was established. The regress equation was established between process parameters and granule yield and friability by multiple regression analysis, the affecting the order of the size of the order of the process parameters on granule yield and friability was: rollers speed > rollers pressure > speed of horizontal feed. Granule yield was positively correlated with pressure and speed of horizontal feed and negatively correlated rollers speed, while friability was on the contrary. By comparison, fitted value and real value, fitted and real value are basically the same of no significant differences (P > 0.05) and with high precision and reliability.

Objective To research the unmet needs and services of rehabilitation for people with physical disabilities in rural areas in Henan, China. Methods The data of 2016 Basic Service Status and Unmet Needs for People with Disabilities in Henan, China were ana-lyzed. Results A total of 1,028,598 people with physical disabilities from all 19 cities had been surveyed, accounting for 61.7% male. In terms of rehabilitation needs, there were 19,348 (1.9%) responsed surgery, 202,855 (19.7%) responsed medical treatment, 197,592 (19.2%) responsed functional training, 360,754 (35.1%) responsed assistive products, and 158,012 (15.4%) responsed nursing, there were significant differences in the number of people who needed rehabilitation among different disability levels (χ2>18.080, P<0.001). For rehabilitation ser-vice, there were 6061 (0.6%) reported surgery, 93,905 (9.1%) reported medicine, 62,967 (6.1%) reported function training, 81,437 (7.9%) reported assistive products, and 34,595 (3.4%) reported nursing, there were significant differences in the number of people who got rehabili-tation among different disability levels (χ2>15.920, P<0.01). For the people without rehabilitation services, there were 165,172 (20.3%) per-son-times lack of understanding of rehabilitation policy, 151,448 (18.6%) reported lack of rehabilitation financial support, 20,369 (2.5%) re-ported not to access rehabilitation institutions, 540,971 (66.5%) reported lack of rehabilitation professionals or services, there were signifi-cant differences in the number of people who did not get rehabilitation services among different disability levels (χ2>19.182, P<0.001). Con-clusion The unmet needs and services of rehabilitation for people with physical disabilities in rural areas in Henan were explicated. It recom-mended to train rehabilitation professionals and improve the service delivery capacity, to raise awareness, increase investment in rehabilita-tion services and provide reasonable accommodation for people with disabilities.

AIM: To explore the influence of Huqi San on the Hedgehog signaling pathway in rats with prehe-patocarcinoma.METHODS: The model of prehepatocarcinoma in the rats was established by a modified solt-farber method.The rats were intragastric administrated with Huqi San solution for 3 d after subtotal hepatectomy.Four weeks after administration of the Huqi San solution, the hepatic damage was observed by histopathological analysis.The protein expression of glutathione S-transferase-π (GST-π), alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), OV6, albumin (ALB) and glioma-associated oncogene homolog 2 (Gli2) was detected by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence staining.The expression of Sonic hedgehog (Shh), Smoothened (Smo), Gli2, cyclin D and cyclin E at mRNA and protein levels in the rats was determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot, respectively.The serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) were assayed using diagnostic kits.RESULTS: Compared with model group, Huqi San decreased the serum levels of ALT, AST and GGT, and alleviated the pathological changes in prehepatocarcinoma rats.Huqi San inhibited the protein expression of GST-π and AFP (P<0.05) in the prehepatocarcinoma rats.Huqi San also promoted the protein expression of OV6 and ALB (P<0.05).Furthermore, Huqi San activated Hedgehog signaling pathway and its downstream targeting molecules such as Shh, Smo, Gli2, cyclin D and cyclin E.In addition, the results in vitro showed that Huqi San may activate Hedgehog signaling pathway and promoted oval cell proliferation.CONCLUSION: Huqi San not only promotes hepatic progenitor cell proliferation, but also induces hepatic progenitor cell differentiation and inhibits prehepatocarcinoma in the rats probably via activating Hedgehog signaling pathway.

Breast cancer patients experience many symptoms during treatment. In most cases, the symptoms do not appear alone, but several symptoms appear at the same time and form symptoms cluster, which causes severe physical and mental burden on the patient. This paper summarized the study on symptom cluster of breast cancer patients at home and abroad from the perspectives of concept, categories, influencing factors and management, so as to provide basis for future symptom cluster management.

Purpose:
This study was to investigate the work experience of newly recruited male nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods:
With a phenomenological approach, this qualitative study was adopted semistructured interviews by phone or video calls. A total of 9 male nurses newly recruited for the COVID-19 wards in Chinese hospitals were interviewed for this study. And Colaizzi's method was applied for evaluation in the data analysis.
Results:
Based on our findings, three themes were extracted. First, the newly recruited male nurses showed negative emotions at the beginning of COVID-19 epidemic, which was caused by changes in working conditions and content, but also prompted the nurses to change the way of coping with the crisis. Second, they gradually mastered the working skills and psychological training to cope with COVID-19 and developed a positive attitude toward life and a high sense of professional responsibility. Finally, we learned about their needs to respond to public health emergencies such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
Conclusion
COVID-19 is a disaster for all of humanity. The newly recruited male nurses are an important force in emergency rescue. Although they suffered from short-term negative emotions, they quickly adapted to the crisis. In order to better prepare for future emergencies, the disaster response capacity of newly recruited male nurses needs to be further improved. In addition, newly recruited male nurses have a strong demand for timely and personalized career development guidance.

OBJECTIVETo study the correlation of dry granulation with Chinese extract powder physical properties and dry granulating process parameters to find out the main factors affecting the granulation progress.
METHODThe correlation with the physical properties including angle of repose, compression degree, cohesion, water content, feeding speed, wheel speed and wheel pressure with the yield of grain was investigated by multiple regression analysis.
RESULTThe results showed that compression degree, water content, feeding speed and wheel pressure was positively correlated with the yield of grain in measured range. The angle of repose, cohesion, wheel speed was negative correlated with the yield of grain in measured range.
CONCLUSIONDry granulating was highly influenced by the physical properties of herbal extracts and the parameters of dry granulating process. The greater impact on grain dry method are compression, cohesion and wheel speed.
