Objective To explore the effect of training weights on energy expenditure(EE)among young males during squatting.Methods Twenty young males with strength training experience≥1 year were recruited and performed 3 sets of squats,with 5 repetitions per set,at 40%1RM,60%1RM and 80%1RM,respectively,with an interval of at least 72 hours.Oxygen uptake(VO2),heart rate,blood lactate,and the mechanical work on the barbell during squat exercises were measured before,during,and after each sets.Moreover,one-way repeated-measures ANOVA was used to compare EE differenc-es between different training weights,and two-way ANOVA was employed to examine the weight×method effect on metabolic equivalent(MET)values.Meanwhile,Pearson's correlation analysis was conducted to examine the correlation between EE and barbell mechanical work.Results(1)Training weight has significant effects on the total energy expenditure and EE during excess post-exercise oxy-gen consumption(EPOC)stage(P<0.001),while a significant increase was observed in the glycolytic EE only at 80%1RM and the aerobic EE with no less than 60%1RM(P<0.01 and P<0.05).(2)The percentage of EPOC-stage and glycolytic EE in the total energy expenditure was significantly higher than the aerobic EE(P<0.01),while that of aerobic EE at 40%1RM and 60%1RM was significantly higher than at 80%1RM(P<0.01).(3)Total energy expenditure(r=0.65,P<0.001)and EPOC-stage EE(r=0.68,P<0.001)showed moderate correlation with the mechanical work done.(4)Aerobic EE was significantly lower than the mechanical work done during squatting(P<0.001).Moreover,the MET values of squats calculated using aerobic EE during exercise at 40%-80%1RM was 2.42±0.54,2.89±0.87 and 2.7±0.56,while the MET ones calculated using the total energy expenditure reached 14.99±2.94,20.52±4.51 and 28.57±6.88.Conclusions Only EPOC-stage and glycolytic EE elevate with the increase of weight.Moreover,EE and the MET value scalculated using VO2 dur-ing exercise may under estimate the actual intensity of squat.Meanwhile,the accuracy of EE estima-tion may be improved by introducing the mechanical work.

OBJECTIVE:To conduct a Meta-analysis of evaluating the effects of whole-body vibration training on bone mineral density in postmenopausal women.METHODS:We searched CNKI,WanFang,PubMed,and Web of Science for studies on whole body vibration training to improve bone mineral density in postmenopausal women from database inception to April 3,2024,with the search terms whole-body vibration training,postmenopausal women,osteoporosis,and bone mineral density.Included indicators were lumbar spine(L1-L4,L2-L4),femoral neck,greater trochanter,Ward's triangle,and whole-body bone density.Revman 5.3 and R 4.3.3 were used for data analysis.RESULTS:(1)A total of 28 randomized controlled studies were included.(2)Vibration intensity:Vibration frequency＞20 Hz and amplitude＞2 mm could significantly increase the bone mineral density of the femoral neck,greater trochanter,Ward region,L1-L4 and L2-L4 lumbar vertebrae(P＜0.01,I2＞50％).(3)Training period and frequency:2-3 times per week,48-96 times per week,the bone mineral density at each site increased significantly(P＜0.05,I2＜50％).(4)Movement patterns:Dynamic training significantly increased bone mineral density in the femoral neck(P=0.03,/2=0％),greater trochanter(P＜0.001,I2=0％)and Ward region(P＜0.001,I2=0％);static squat significantly increased bone mineral density in L1-L4 lumbar spines(P＜0.001,I2=0％);and static multiple squatting was effective in improving bone mineral density in L2-L4 lumbar spines(P＜0.01,/2=0％)and the femoral neck(P=0.04,I2=34％).CONCLUSION:Whole-body vibration training has potential in improving bone mineral density in postmenopausal women.Recommended vibration frequencies and amplitudes are not less than 20 Hz and 2 mm,respectively,with no less than 48 training sessions.Static training is recommended for improving lumbar bone mineral density,while dynamic training is recommended for improving hip bone mineral density.

Objective: To analyze the impact of life satisfaction and parental rearing methods on accidental injuries of primary and secondary school students in rural areas, and to provide a therotical reference for injury prevention and intervention among primary and secondary school students in rural areas. Methods: A stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 2 045 rural primary and middle school students in Luliang County, Yunnan Province, questionnaire survey regarding injury, MSLSS and EMBU was administered. Results: The incidence of accidental injury among rural primary and middle school students was 16.19 %, and the rate of boys (19.51%) were higher than that of girls (12.26%) ( χ 2=19.69, P <0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis found that women, low injury risk behavior scores, and high life satisfaction scores were associated with less accidental injuries( OR =0.62, 0.98,0.81), while day to day school and father s overprotection were associated with more for accidental injuries( OR =1.50, 1.04, P <0.05). Conclusion Parents should pay more attention to children s safety education while creating a good living environment for their children, but they should pay attention to their own education methods to reduce accidental injuries.

Objective To analyze the effect of high and low dose radiation on the expressions of Th1,Th2 and Th3 /Tr1 related-genes in mice thymocytes and investigate the possible underlying molecular mechanism.Methods ICR mice were randomly divided into low-dose group (0.075 Gy),high-dose group (2.0 Gy) and sham-control group.The mouse thymus tissue was extracted at 16 hours after irradiation and the expressions of Th1-Th2-Th3 related genes were measured by PCR array.Results Eight genes were up-regulated and five genes were down-regulated after low dose radiation (0.075 Gy);while 54 genes were up-regulated and three genes were down-regulated after high dose (2.0 Gy) radiation.These genes included Th1 cell related genes,Th2 cell related genes,Th3/Tr1 cell related genes,Th1/Th2 immune response genes and transcription factor related genes.Low dose radiation induced up-regulation of Stat4 and Socs1 of genes related to the Th1 cells,and it induced down-regulation of IL-4ra,Cebpb,Gata3 and Tgfb3 associated with Th2 and Th3 cells,which lead to Sftpd genes up-regulation of Th1 immune response eventually.The high dose radiation up-regulated all of Th1,Th2 and Th3/Tr related genes and also enhanced the expressions of Cd86,IL-18,IL-10 and Irf4 genes related to Th2 immune response,but it did not alter the gene expression of Th1 immune response.Conclusions Low-dose radiation induces Th1-type immune response,while high doses radiation triggers Th2 type immune response.

AIM: To establish the model of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS)/acute lung injury (ALI) by LPS administration in rats and to measure the content of interleukin-10 massage RNA(IL-10 mRNA) and activator protein-1 (AP-1) activity in order to investigate the anti-inflammatory mechanism.METHODS: Wistar rats were injured with increased dose of LPS to set up the SIRS/ALI model. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) were used to measure IL-10 mRNA content and the AP-1 binding activity in rat lung, respectively.RESULTS: ①LPS could be applied to simulate SIRS-ALI in rats.②Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) could be induced under condition of LPS≥6 mg/kg, which was similar to that of the excessive expression of SIRS. ③ LPS may cause the increase content of IL-10 mRNA and AP-1 activity in lung in rat. ④Content of IL-10 mRNA and AP-1 activity were increased significantly under LPS≥6 mg/kg. CONCLUSIONS: ①LPS≥6 mg/kg might cause the SIRS/acute lung injury in rats.②The rats with excessive SIRS/acute lung injury had an obvious increase of transcription of IL-10 gene and upregulated AP-1. ③ Intensified anti-inflammatory mechanism plays a pathological role in SIRS/acute lung injury.
