Intelligent prosthesis is going to be a research focus recently with the increment of the transfemoral amputees and the devel-opment of microelectronic technology, control technology and so on. As the fundamental part of the lower extremity prosthetics, the knee prostheses with high performance is still hard to design. This paper reviewed the development of the intelligent knee prostheses, classified the current available prostheses in the term of construction design, and discussed the drawback of their design and the trend of the further de-velopment.

Objective To investigate the value of acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) on evaluating the renal tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis of IgA nephropathy(IgAN).Methods 117 patients diagnosed with IgAN,and 80 normal cases were examined with conventional ultrasonography and ARFI,recording the shear wave velocities(SWV),the hemodynamics and the renal biopsy results to quantify the elastic changes of renal cortex,with the aim of assessing AFRI's advantages on early diagnosing the impair of kidney.Results The SWV value of renal cortex,renal medulla of IgAN group were smaller than that of normal group (P ＜0.05),while the collective system SWV value had no difference(P ＞0.05).According to the ROC curve,the cut-off value of SWV in renal cortex was 2.7 cm/s.The accuracy of the diagnosis was 71 ％,which was better than RI (61.9％).The SWV value of the renal cortex decreased with the different stage of 1,2,3,4,but stage 5 was larger than stage 4.The degree of renal tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis(T) can be classified by the SWV of renal cortex,and the SWV of T2 was larger than T1 (P ＜0.05).Conclusions By quantifying the elastic change of kidney,ARFI technology is able to distinguish the degree of renal tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis,diagnose renal impairment early and judge the clinical stages.Furthermore the sensitivity,specificity,accuracy of it are superior to hemodynamic.

Objective To establish a HPLC method for the determination of chlorogenic acid, baicaliin, forsythin and wogonin in Shuanghuanglian oral liquid. Methods The column was VP-ODS C18 (250 mm?4.6 mm, 5 ?m). The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0.2% phosphoric acid with gradient elution. The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min and the detection wavelength was at 278 nm. Results The calibration curves were linear within the range of 0.44～6.60 ?g (r=0.999 1) for chlorogenic acid, 0.52～6.18 ?g (r=0.999 1) for baicaliin, 0.20～2.04 ?g (r =0.999 3) for forsythin (r =0.999 3) and 0.13～1.76 ?g (r =0.999 1) for wogonin, respectively. The average recovery of them were 97.0% (RSD=1.1%), 98.98% (RSD=1.1%), 103.55% (RSD = 1.1%) and 96.49% (RSD = 1.1%), respectively. Conclusion The method is simple, practicable, accurate and rapid. It can be applied to content determination of chlorogenic acid, baicaliin, forsythin and wogonin in Shuanghuanglian oral liquid.

Objective To investigate the incidence of adult epilepsy patients with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and the characteristics of ADHD subtypes, and to explore the correlations between several epilepsy-related factors and ADHD. Methods According to corresponding inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria, 82 adult epilepsy patients from March 2012 to March 2016 were enrolled as study group. Eighty-two healthy adults were enrolled as the control group. Using the Chi-square test and Logistic regression analysis and the other statistical methods, the phenomenon of ADHD in adults with epilepsy and the factors that may contribute to the phenomenon was analyzed. Results The detection rate of ADHD in 82 adult patients with epilepsy was 26.8%(22/82), significantly higher than that in the heathly control group which was 4.9%(4/82),χ2=18.672, P<0.05. Symptomatic epilepsy 8/17 and the electroencephalogram showed multifocal discharge 6/14 had higher detection rate of comorbid ADHD and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). The results of binary Logistic regression analysis showed that epilepsy age of onset was possibly an important factor for epilepsy with ADHD (B=-0.891, P<0.05). Conclusions The risk of ADHD in adults with epilepsy is higher than that in the healthy adults and attention-deficit is the common subtype. The etiology, age of onset and electroencephalogram features of adults with epilepsy may be associated with the occurrence of ADHD.

OBJECTIVE:To develop an HPLC method for the determination of the content of curcumine in Rujiexiao tablets.METHODS:The separation of sample was performed on VP-ODS C18 column (250 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m).The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0.2% phosphoric acid(61∶39) with a flow rate of 1.0 mL?min-1.The detection wavelength was set at 428 nm. RESULTS:The calibration curve of curcumine was linear within the range of 0.036～0.216 ?g (r=0.999 8) with an average recovery of 98.93%(RSD=0.99%,n=9).CONCLUSION:This method was proved to be simple,reliable and reproducible,and applicable for the quality control of Rujiexiao tablets.

Objective To understand the personality and self-rated health status and the relationship between them in medical students. Methods By multi-stage cluster random sampling, 878 medical students were selected to investigate the personality by Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Revised (Short Scale For Chinese) and the health status by self-rated health measurement scale (SRHMS1.0). Results The score of L dimension among male and female medical students was significantly higher than that of nation- wide young population. The scores of E, N and P dimensions had no significant difference between them. The score of P dimension of male students was significantly higher than that of female students. The score of students' SRHMS was 339.28?41.19, which was higher than that of general population in China. The score of physical health subscale among male and female students was 144.90?11.41 and 142.73?11.36, respectively (t=2.829, P=0.005). The scores of SRHMS and its three subscales were significantly different in medical students with different personality traits except the score of physical health subscale in students with different grades of P dimension. The scores of E and L dimensions had significantly positive correlation with SRHMS, and the scores of N and P dimensions had significantly negative correlation with SRHMS. Conclusion The personality traits of medical students were remarkably influenced on their self-rated health. To encourage medical students to reform the wholesome personality will be helpful to their health.

Objective To investigate the relationship of nitric oxide with nitric oxide synthase system in fetal rat kidney and the mechanism of renal injury after acute intrauterine ischemia(hypoxia)/reperfusion ischemia(hypoxia)/reperfusion. Methods Wistar rats of 21 gestational days were selected and divided into seven groups according to the different ischemia(hypoxia)/reperfusion time. The level of nitric oxide and the expression of nitric oxide synthase system were detected by biochemistry, immunohistochemistry and RT PCR. Results The NO level was decreased gradually with extension of ischemia, which was significantly different from sham group ( P
