Objective To quantify the lower limb muscle synergy characteristics of athletes during the abdominal take-off phase before and after exercise-induced fatigue(EIF)and reveal the impact of EIF on the lower limb muscle synergy characteristics of athletes during the abdominal take-off phase.Methods The surface electromyographic data of the lower limbs during the abdominal take-off phase of 10 second-level male athletes in track and field special classes before and after EIF intervention were compared.Muscle synergy structures were analyzed before and after EIF.The paired sample t-test was used to compare the differences in synergy parameters before and after EIF.Results Two synergistic elements were extracted before and after EIF,and alternate activation of the muscle synergy structures was observed.After EIF,the degree of activation of synergy element 2 decreased significantly from 53.21±7.90 to 43.44±10.23.However,there was no significant change in synergy element 1.After EIF,the contribution of the rectus femoris muscle of synergy element 1 significantly increased from 0.37±0.04 to 0.44±0.07,and the contribution of the semitendinosus muscle decreased significantly from 0.13±0.05 to 0.08±0.05.Conclusions During abdominal take-off,as fatigue increases,the activation degree of the synergistic elements of each lower limb muscle decreases,and the contribution of the rectus femoris muscle in the synergy element to absorb the ground reaction force increases.This indicates that the rectus femoris muscle is at risk of sprain,and prevention of rectus femoris muscle injury should be strengthened.

Objective:To analyze the biomechanical characteristics of the knee joint under different lateral cut angles and ground contact modes using the validated finite element model of the knee joint,which provided a theoretical basis for preventing lateral cut sports injuries in football players and formulating rehabilitation training pro-grams after injury. Method:Fifteen male football players(all of whom are national second-level athletes and above)were recruit-ed to perform cutting movements at the angles of 45°,90° and 135° in front and rear touchdown modes at a speed of 6m/s±10%.The kinematics and dynamics data of the knee joint were calculated by Visual 3D soft-ware,and the peak moment of ground reaction force in the six touchdown actions was numerically simulated based on the verified knee joint model. Result:①The cutting angle is positively correlated with the peak knee flexion angle(P<0.05),indicating that as the cutting angle increases,while vertical ground reaction force decreases significantly with increase cutting angle(P<0.05).②Significant differences in kinematics and dynamics exist between forefoot and rearfoot strik-ing(P<0.05).In the forefoot striking mode,there are larger knee flexion angles,external rotation,and inter-nal rotation peak angles,along with higher upward ground reaction force.③At the moment of side cutting contact,the distribution of Von Mises stress in the meniscus and the contact stress in the femoral cartilage show characteristics related to the cutting angle and the mode of foot contact.In the 90° rearfoot striking mode,there is a noticeable concentration of stress on the external edge of the medial meniscus and the medi-al femoral cartilage,which may indicate an increased risk of knee joint injury under these conditions. Conclusion:Performing a 90° cut with a rearfoot striking pattern may lead to an imbalance in internal knee joint stress,particularly causing significant stress concentration on the external edge of the medial meniscus,indicating a higher risk of injury.

Objective To propose a human-machine coupling dynamics modeling method based on virtual muscles, so as to quantitatively analyze the characteristics of human-computer interaction force and muscle activation of the musculoskeletal system. Methods First, in the gait experiment of wearing exoskeleton, the human motion capture system and self-developed mechanical monitoring device were used to obtain the wearer’s walking dynamics, electromyography (EMG) signals, exoskeleton drive status and local human-computer interaction information. The human-machine coupling model was established in modeling environment of the bone system, and the gait experiment data and the exoskeleton joint torques were used as driving information of the coupling model to perform inverse mechanical calculations. Finally, by adjusting strength and stiffness parameters of the virtual muscles, the real data of the model was compared with the experimental test result, to quantitatively evaluate effectiveness of the human-machine coupling model of the lower extremity exoskeleton. Results The normal interaction force calculated by inverse dynamics of the coupled model and the activation of lower limb muscles had a good consistency in response curve trend compared with measurement results of the gait experiment, and the interaction force results had a high degree of correlation (r=0.931, P<0.01), the root mean square error was small, and the peak error of lower limb muscle activation was lower than 5%. Conclusions The human-machine coupling model proposed in this study can effectively calculate the interaction force between human and exoskeleton. The establishment of the coupling model provides a theoretical basis for verification and iteration of the exoskeleton structure optimization and control algorithm, as well as performance evaluation on mobility assistance effects of the exoskeleton.

Objective:
To examine the effects of obesity and central obesity on hypertension, so as to provide insights into the prevention and control measures of hypertension.
Methods:
From September to December 2018, residents at ages of 35 to 75 years were sampled using the multi-stage random sampling method in Baiyin District, Baiyin City, Gansu Province, and subjected to questionnaire surveys and physical examinations. The interaction between obesity/central obesity and hypertension was evaluated using logistic regression analysis. The synergy index ( SI ), relative excess risk due to interaction ( RERI ) and attributable proportion due to interaction ( AP ) were calculated using Excel compiled by Andersson et al.
Results:
A total of 6 246 questionnaires were allocated and 6 169 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 98.77%. The respondents included 3 038 men ( 49.25% ) and 3 131 women (50.75%), with a mean age of ( 52.05±8.78 ) years. There were 832 respondents with obesity ( 13.49% ) and 2 278 with central obesity ( 36.93% ). The crude and standardized prevalence rates of hypertension were 35.89% and 33.05%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that obesity ( OR=2.020, 95%CI: 1.705-2.393 ) and central obesity ( OR=1.622, 95%CI: 1.433-1.836 ) were statistically associated with hypertension. There was no multiplicative interaction between obesity or central obesity and hypertension ( OR=1.011, 95%CI: 0.655-1.560 ), and no additive interaction was detected between obesity or central obesityand hypertension ( SI=1.405, 95%CI: 0.815-2.424; RERI=0.658, 95%CI: -0.298 to 1.614; AP=0.201, 95%CI: -0.075 to 0.476 ).
Conclusions
Obesity and central obesity increase the risk of hypertension; however, no interaction is detected between obesity or central obesity and hypertension.

BACKGROUND:
Lung cancer is the most common neoplasmas with a poor prognosis and a low 5-year survival rate. Early screening is an important measure for the prevention and treatment of lung cancer. At present, different countries have issued corresponding lung cancer screening guidelines, but China still lacks guidelines based on Chinese population research. Therefore, the National Cancer Center launched a Multi-center Cancer Screening Program in Urban China. This study analyzed the evaluation of lung cancer risk assessment model and screening effect in urban China of Yunnan, so as to explore the evaluation model of high-risk lung cancer population suitable for China's national conditions and develop lung cancer screening guidelines for Chinese.
METHODS:
A questionnaire survey and lung cancer risk assessment were conducted on 165,337 people in 36 street offices in 4 main urban areas of Kunming, Yunnan Province, using cluster sampling method from January 2015 to December 2019. People with high-risk of lung cancer conducted low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening of chest. What's more, all participants were followed up by active or passive follow-up.
RESULTS:
There were 264 patients were diagnosed lung cancer by pathology, and the overall incidence of lung cancer was 0.16% (264/165,337). The high-risk group (0.31%, 116/37,914) was higher than the non-high-risk group (0.12%, 148/127,423), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). The incidence of lung cancer in the high-risk group was higher than the non-high-risk group among the male, female, and lower 50-year-old or more than 50-year-old subgroups, with statistical differences (P<0.001), but there was no statistical difference in the group without LDCT screening (P=0.73). The sensitivity of the lung cancer high-risk population assessment model was 43.94% (116/264) and the specificity was 77.10% (127,275/165,073). The early diagnosis rate of the screening group was 72.97% (54/74), which was significantly higher than that of the non-screening group [28.48% (43/151)].
CONCLUSIONS
The lung cancer high-risk population assessment model of National Key Public Health Program: Cancer Screening Program in Urban China can detect high-risk populations and improve the early diagnosis rate of lung cancer effectively.
