ABSTRACT
Objective To prolong the working time of the crew under a high temperature and high humidity environment in armored vehicles , improve work efficiency , and to prevent excessive heat load from doing any harm to the human body . Methods The man-machine environment was analyzed , the corresponding environment and the conditions aboard were further quantitatively studied , and man-machine-environment interactions were analyzed .Also,a questionnaire survey was conducted at the same time .Results and Conclusion The thermal equilibrium and thermal comfort calculation program were compiled and validated through the questionnaire survey in order to provide support for environment assessment and protection design .
ABSTRACT
The characteristics of human body impact response and several impact test objects are analyzed.The strengths and weaknesses of different research methods applied to different human landing impact test objects are contrasted.The relevant experimental findings and evaluation criteria of domestic and international tests on human landing impact are analyzed.The results show that the selected human substitutes in several research tests have some flaws, so it is urgent to formulate regulations on the load characteristics, individual characteristics, the posture of the test object and the protection status, and it is recessary to study impact tolerance and protective methods of corresponding operating personnel for different transports.
ABSTRACT
Objective To design a measuring system for operative gestures used for the crew in armored vehicles. Methods The MEMS sensor was used to collect gesture parameters of important parts of four crew members,such as the head, neck,trunk,arms,legs.The infrared tracking auxiliary measurement was used to calibrate the gesture parameters of arms of drivers.The wireless transceiver was used to transmit data to the control unit for preprocessing and then send the data to the collector for storage, before being transmitted to the back-end computers.A software system was used to process and display the body posture parameters.Results and Conclusion The system can mesure the operative gestures of the crew and provide means by which to analyze the kinematics for the crew in armored vehicles.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the clinical value of preparatory treatment using estradiol valerate and mifepristone before the curettage of the late small missed abortion.Methods One hundred and twenty patients with late small missed abortion were randomly divided into two groups:pretreated group(n =660) and control group(n =60).Women in the pretreated group were given 5 mg of Estradiol Valerate 3 times/day and 25 mg of Mifepristone twice/day for 3 days each before conducted curettage on the fourth day.While for the control group,curettage was done directly.The condition of operation and the occurrence of short-and long-term complications were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the control group,the pretreated group had a significant shorter operation duration[(8.6±2.7) rnin vs.(10.5±3.4) min,t =3.390,P =0.001]and less blood lose during operation[(47.5±18.3) ml vs.(61.8±20.5) ml,t =4.031,P ＜ 0.001].In terms of complications,the rates of incomplete curettage[(0 vs 13.3％,x2 =6.563,P =0.010],artificial abortion syndrome(3.3 ％ vs 15.0％,x2 =4.904,P =0.027),the cervical canal adhesion/Asherman' s syndrome(0 vs 11.7％,x2 =5.461,P =0.019),and the vaginal bleeding duration[(7.5±2.7) days vs(8.7±3.4) days,t =2.141,P =0.034]in the pretreated group were significantly lower than those in the control group.The average recovery time of menstruation after operation in the pretreated patients was significantly shorter than that in the control group[(30.5±9.3) days vs.(35.5±7.4) days,t =3.259,P =0.002].Contusion Estradiol valerate and Mifepristone as a preparatory treatment before the operation can help reduce the occurrence of complications and side effects in the late small missed abortion curettage and is helpful for the patients' recovery,thus worth wide clinical application.
ABSTRACT
Objective To establish a patient-like human ovary carcinoma/spontaneous metastasis model using orthotopic transplantation of histologically intact tumor tissue. Methods An highly metastatic ovarian tumor line (8910PM: human serum carcinoma of the ovary) previously grown substaneously was transplanted into the ovicapaule using microsurgery technique. Histologically intact human ovary tumor pieces gained from implantation site were passaged between ovicapsules for four generations. Results All mice developed ovary tumors and the metastatic rates were about 50 %. The tumors only metastasized to liver. The earliest appearance of metastasis was 14 days and the average survival period was 20.7 ±4.89 days. The microscopic appearance of the metastases was similar to the tumor observed in the substaneous xenografts and orthotopically transplanted.Chromosomes analysis exhibited the feature of human carcinoma and retained genetic stability during the processes of passage. Conclusion Orthotopic implantation provides a suitable micro-environment in which ovarian cancer can express its intrinsic clinically-relevant properties. This approach is relevant to the spontaneous development of ovarian cancer and is thought to be a useful model for studies of metastatic mechanism and therapy for ovary cancer.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the profile of local immunity of vagina and the immune defense mechanisms against lower genital tract infections. Methods Vaginal lavage was collected from healthy women and patients of vulvovaginal candidiasis, bacterial vaginosis, Trichomonol vaginitis, human papilloma virus infection(VVC), and chlamydia trachomatis infection. Each group included 60 cases. The level of interleukin (IL) 2,4,5, 13,8 and human defensin 5 (HD5) were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Results (1) Cytokine of helper T cell 1(Th1): the level of IL-2 between healthy women and VVC/ bacterial vaginosis (BV)/ trichomonol vaginitis (TV)/ chlamydia trachomatis (CT) patients had no significant difference. The IL-2 level(96±33 )×10-3 pg/L of human papilloma virus (HPV) infection patients was significantly higher than that of healthy women( P<0.05). (2)Cytokine of helper T cell 2 (Th2) : the level of IL-4 between healthy women and VVC/CT patients had no significant difference. The level of IL-5 between healthy women and BV patients had no significant difference. The IL-13 level(42±15)×10-3 pg/L of TV patients was significantly higher than that of healthy women (30±29)×10-3 pg/L (P<0.05). The IL-4 level (103±28)×10-3 pg/L of HPV infection patients was significantly higher than that of healthy women (36±22)×10-3 pg/L (P<0. 05 ). (3) IL-8 : the IL-8 level (5.8± 2.7) pg/L of TV infection patients was significantly higher than that of healthy women (2. 6±2.4) pg/L (P<0.05). The level of IL-8 between healthy women and BV patients had no significant difference. (4)HD5:the HD5 level of TV , BV, VVC, HPV and CT infection patients were significantly higher than that of healthy women (P<0.05). Conclusions (1) HD5 plays an important role in the defence of vaginal epithelial cell. (2) Th2 may be more important than Thl in lower genital tract infections.(3) IL-8 plays an important role in extrinsic source infections.
