ABSTRACT
@#As a standard framework of disability definition and measurement, International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is widely used in disability statistics. This paper reviewed the progress of international disability statistics based on ICF in the fields of disability measurement tools and disability surveys. There were many disability measurement tools have been developed and applied. These promote international disability statistics and disability statistics system. The disability statistics in China was analyzed and three recommendations were put forward.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the rehabilitation needs of people with disabilities and the related factors,so as to provide a scien-tific basis for the rehabilitation policy-making for people with disabilities. Methods From June,2014 to July,2015,based on the national special survey of basic services and needs of people with disabilities in Jiangsu,China,this paper clarified the factors related with the rehabilitation needs of the disabled into the individual characteristics, economic characteristics, environmental characteristics and so on by the de-scriptive statistics method. The Logit model was established to explore the factors related with rehabilitation needs. Results In Jiangsu,43% people with disabilities aged 16 and above had rehabilitation needs.Contingency table analysis and Chi square test showed that individual characteristics,economic characteristics and environmental character-istics had significant impact on the rehabilitation needs of the disabled.Multiple regression analysis showed that all the 18 variables were the significant related factors. Conclusion In order to meet the rehabilitation needs of the disabled, the refined and precise rehabilitation program should be designed in line with the different characteristics of the disabled.Through the effective docking of sup-plies and needs,we can provide accurate rehabilitation services for the disabled.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the static postural balance of patients with lumbar disc herniation (LDH). Methods From January to September, 2015, thirty patients with LDH were as observation group, and thirty healthy adult people were as control group. Their bal-ance function were detected and compared. Results The sway length, sway area and anteroposterior sway velocity were higher in the obser-vation group than in the control group (t>2.262, P2.767, P2.326, P<0.05). Conclusion Impairment of the proprioception and lower back pain affected the postural control of patients with LDH, who relied more on vision input to maintain postural stability.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the possible effect of fully knee extension in sitting position with or without hip adduction on quadriceps imbalance in patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) by using surface electromyography (sEMG). Methods sEMG signals of vastus lateralis (VL) and vastus medialis oblique (VMO) muscles from 30 patients with PFPS as PFPS group and 30 healthy subjects as control group were collected, during their fully knee extension in sitting position with or without hip adduction. All the EMG data were then analyzed by extracting time domain indexes, namely, the root mean square (RMS) and integrated EMG (IEMG), to compare the balanced relationship between VL and VMO muscles. Results In PFPS group, there were no significant differences in VL time domain indexes during knee extension in sitting position with or without hip adduction, while statistical differences were found in VMO time domain indexes, and values of RMS and IEMG of VMO were higher under hip adduction, which indicated that the VMO muscle recruitment was strengthened. Conclusions Fully knee extension in sitting position with hip adduction can promote EMG activities of VMO muscles in patients with PFPS, which will help to balance the VL and VMO muscles.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the regulatory mechanism of Wnt/?-Catenin passthway-influenced apoptosis of human gastric cancer line SGC-7901 by detecting the expression of ?-Catenin mRNA,Bcl-2mRNA,Caspase-8mRNA and Caspase-3mRNA.Methods:(1) Expressions of ?-Catenin,Bcl-2,Caspase-8 and Caspase-3mRNAs in groups with or without indomethacin induction were detected by RT-PCR.(2) Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) assay was used to measure the anticancer activity of indomethacin.Results:(1)As compared with groups without indomethacin induction,expression of ?-Catenin mRNA and Bcl-2 mRNA were lower,however,increased expression of Caspase-8 and Caspase-3mRNA were found in SGC-7901 cells after treatment with indomethacin.(2) Indomethacin of 50 ?mol/L at 24 h couldn't induce apoptosis of gastric cancer cells.Indomethacin of 50?mol/L at 48 and 72 h and of 100?mol/L and 200?mol/L at 24、48 and 72 h could induce apoptosis of gastric cancer cells in a dose-and time-dependent manner.Conclusion:Gastric cancer cells may be caused by apoptosis inbalance through Wnt/?-Catenin passthway,which activates expression of proto-oncogene Bcl-2 and inhibites expressions of Caspase-8 and Caspase-3.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To establish a method for determination of isofraxidin in Xiaoerkaiwei Oral Liquid (Radix Acanthopanacis Senticosi, Endothelium Corneum Gigeriae Galli, Semen Alpiniae Katsumadai, Semen Pharbitidis, etc.) by RP HPLC. Methods: The HPLC system consisted of Symmetry C 18 column(3.9m?150mm, 5?m), methanol water (0.1% formic acid) (30∶70) mixture as a mobile phase, detection wavelength at 342nm, 0.8mL?min -1 of flow rate and column temperature at 30℃.Results: The calibration curves of the isofraxidin were linear ( r =0.9993). The precision were perfect ( RSD =1.87). The samples were stable in 6 h. The average recovery of Xiaoerkaiwei Oral Liquid was 102.4% with RSD of 1.76%.Conclusion: This method is simple, quick and specific, suitable for the quality control.
