BACKGROUND: An epidemic outbreak of poliomyelitis occurred in Pizhou City, Jangsu Province, 15 years ago. It is important to appraise the daily living and function of those survived children.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the physical status of the survived children and propose appropriate suggestions on rehabilitation.DESIGN: Case-based cross-sectional study based on patients.SETTING: Department of Rehabilitative Medicine of First Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 545 patients with poliomyelitis sequela, which was onset in 1989, were found in Qizhou, and 333 of them were randomly selected from the local"New Hope" nursing house and its surrounding areas.All patients were assayed in one week.METHODS: The survey included 333 polio victims in the nursing house or from the surrounding areas. The study was conducted by five research groups, with two physiatrists and one therapist in each group. Assessment included muscle strength, joint rang of motion, limb deformities, activities of daily living, previous surgical interventions and orthosis. The distance was measured from the anterior superior iliac to medial malleolus and from nave to the medial malleolus, respectively. Anatomic length and functional length were also measured.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Major outcomes included the forms,shapes, or functions of foot, pelvic, hip, knee and ankle joints.RESULTS: According to intention-to-treat analyses, 333 patients with poliomyelitis sequela entered the final analysis. Most of them aged from 15 to 17 years old, which accounted for 97%. Totally 135 patients(40.5% )walked independently and 148 (44.4%) walked with-orthsis and/or crutches. The discrepancy was between 0. 5 cm to 13.0 cm. Patients with paraplegia were 112(33.6% ), which was lesser than those with monoplegia (211, 65.8% ). There were 3 cases with quadriplegia and 2 cases with upper limb involvement. Another 46 sufferers had already underwent the scoliosis prthomorphia. There were 254 subjects with orthosis, including 110 knee ankle feet orthosis for both legs and 131 knee ankle feet orthosis for one leg,with 62 at left and 79 at right. Only three ankle-foot orthosis were employed.CONCLUSION: Besides the factor of muscle strength, limb teratism is the key factor that causes walking disorders. Physical functions maybe improved through surgical intervention, orthosis modification, and rehabilitation training. Every child who received survey required further rehabilitative therapy. A multi-disciplinary team is essential to achieve a better outcome.

In the occupational production and the daily life,the pollutant of pesticides may enter our bodies through the skincontact,the breath and the gastrointestinal absorption and so on. It may cause the reproductive organ and the spermatogenic cell damaged,abnormal endocrine function and the reproduction related genes expressed abnormally,resulting to abnormal spermatogenesis,which leads to oligospermia,asthenospermia,teratospermia and azoospermia. In order to look for a normal pattern and investigate the intrinsic mechanism of the cytotoxicity to the spermatogenic cell correlated with the pesticide pollution,it is necessary to review the relationship between the toxicity of pesticide pollutant and the abnormity of male spermatogenic cell,which will provide some basic information for preventing and controlling the reproductive toxicity of pesticides and ensuring the reproduction healthy of people.

Objective To explore the effect of bio-resonance on walking efficiency in healthy youths. Methods Ten young male participants were involved in this study (age 16 ± 2 years, height 1.73 ±:0. 1 m and weight 56. 1 ± 7 kg). The time-space data were collected using a motion analysis system, and oxygen cost was meas-ured with a Cosmed K4b2 portable gas analysis system. Walking at a self-selected, comfortable walking frequency was recorded through three dimensional gait analysis. Each participant walked at 100% , 80% and 120% of their comfortable walking frequency. Results The average 100% , 80% and 120% comfortable walking frequencies were 107.60 ± 1.78, 85.80 ± 7.45 and 128.60 ±10.46 steps/min, respectively. Oxygen consumption at the three frequencies was significantly different (P≤0.01), and the oxygen costs were 0. 140 ± 0.011, 0. 193 ± 0. 049 and 0. 192 ± 0. 035 ml/m/kg, respectively. Above or below the self-selected pace, oxygen cost increased significantly (P ≤0.05). Conclusion There is an inherited bio-resonance in human walking, and walking with this natural rhythm is reflected in the lowest oxygen cost. Any change from the natural walking rhythm may result in increased en-ergy expenditure and decreased efficiency.

Objective To observe the characteristic of the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) brain map in health adult undergoing clenching and relaxing the fist, for exploring the essence of the fMRI brain map in patients suffering from motor dysfunction by cerebrovascular accidents. Methods Twelve healthy volunteers had been chosen to partake the experience. Everyone had accomplished the following three actions separately: (1) Only clenching and relaxing the fist of left hand. (2) Only clenching and relaxing the fist of right hand. (3) Clenching and relaxing the fist of both hands at one time. The data had been analyzed statistically using analysis of functional neuroimages (AFNI) software. Results Under condition of F (6,1121), P = 0.005. Only clenching and relaxing the fist of left hand had gained the following brain functional area: right precentral gyms, left parietal,right superior temporal gyrus,right parietal, right parahippocampal gyrus, right superior frontal gyrus, right medial frontal gyrus, left precuneus, right superior parietal lobule, right middle frontal gyrus, left superior frontal gyrus. Only clenching and relaxing the fist of right hand had gained the following brain functional area: left precentral gyms, left postcentral gyrus right parietal, right medial frontal gyrus. Clenching and relaxing the fist of beth hands simultaneously had gained the following brain functional area: left precentral gyms,left postcentral gyrus, right precentral gyrus, right postcentral gyrus. Conclusions Hand movement (clenching and relaxing the fist) has its own specific brain activated areas. The brain areas activated by clenching and relaxing the fist of both hands simultaneously concentrate in the motor area of both cerebral hemisphere. The brain areas activated by clenching and relaxing the fist of single hand contain not only the motor area, but also the supplementary motor area. As compared with the right handedness, the brain areas activated by clenching and relaxing the fist of left hand is more widespread.
