ABSTRACT
Purpose@#This study was to investigate the work experience of newly recruited male nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. @*Methods@#With a phenomenological approach, this qualitative study was adopted semistructured interviews by phone or video calls. A total of 9 male nurses newly recruited for the COVID-19 wards in Chinese hospitals were interviewed for this study. And Colaizzi's method was applied for evaluation in the data analysis. @*Results@#Based on our findings, three themes were extracted. First, the newly recruited male nurses showed negative emotions at the beginning of COVID-19 epidemic, which was caused by changes in working conditions and content, but also prompted the nurses to change the way of coping with the crisis. Second, they gradually mastered the working skills and psychological training to cope with COVID-19 and developed a positive attitude toward life and a high sense of professional responsibility. Finally, we learned about their needs to respond to public health emergencies such as the COVID-19 pandemic. @*Conclusion@#COVID-19 is a disaster for all of humanity. The newly recruited male nurses are an important force in emergency rescue. Although they suffered from short-term negative emotions, they quickly adapted to the crisis. In order to better prepare for future emergencies, the disaster response capacity of newly recruited male nurses needs to be further improved. In addition, newly recruited male nurses have a strong demand for timely and personalized career development guidance.

ABSTRACT
Breast cancer patients experience many symptoms during treatment. In most cases, the symptoms do not appear alone, but several symptoms appear at the same time and form symptoms cluster, which causes severe physical and mental burden on the patient. This paper summarized the study on symptom cluster of breast cancer patients at home and abroad from the perspectives of concept, categories, influencing factors and management, so as to provide basis for future symptom cluster management.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To investigate the needs and service of rehabilitation status of the people with intellectual disability, to support rehabilitation service for them. Methods A total of 167,872 cases with intellectual disability from the Administration Data of 2017 Basic Service Status and Needs of People with Disabilities in Henan Province were analyzed and rehabilitation needs included medical service and support, assistive productions, and rehabilitation training. Results 56.4% of the people with intellectual disability reported their rehabilitation needs. The rehabilitation needs were different with their ages, levels of disability and household registration (χ2 > 976.42, P < 0.001). Only 19.0% of the people with intellectual disability accessed rehabilitation services, and the influential factors included demographic variables, family economic status, transportation, knowledge and information, etc. Conclusion There are huge needs of rehabilitation services for the people with intellectual disability needed to be tailored. It is necessary to increase the supply of rehabilitation services using approach of precise rehabilitation, and improve the quality of rehabilitation services.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To analyzes the situation and influential factors of participation in physical activities for the people with disabilities. Methods The Administration Data of 2017 Basic Service Status and Needs of People with Disabilities in Henan Province were analyzed. Results There were 4% of the people with disabilities participation in physical activities. The main reasons for failing participation in physical activity included lack of suitable events, inadequate places and facilities, incomplete organization and guidance, and lack of family and social support. The participation in physical activities was influenced by factors as genders, ages, types of disability, grades of disability and household registration (P < 0.05). Conclusion The rate of participation of physical activity is low and the factors of gender, age, category and severity of disabilities may influence on it.
ABSTRACT
This paper reviews the history of traditional Chinese medicine powder from germination, birth, prosperity to the clinical application, which is gradually reduced. And it enumerates the clinical application of traditional Chinese medicine powder taken orally, external application. The powder preparation process are outlined, summarizes the preparation results including crushing, drying, mixing, taste masking and inhibition of volatilization, sterilization with combining innovation and advice of researchers in the process of powder research. It discussed the main problems of restricting large-scale production that running through preparation, quality standard, clinical application (such as dependence of patients) of powder. Then, it forecasted that more and more hospitals and families will use traditional Chinese medicine powder to relieve pain of patients, in order to enhance the level of preparation and quality control, boosting the normalization and standardization of powder.
ABSTRACT
This paper was aimed to study the moisture adsorption of Chinese herbal medicine ingredients at different environment.The film mass transfer model and Fick's second law were applied to evaluate the moisture diffusion for Chinese herbal medicine ingredients.The results showed that under the temperature of 25℃ and 50％ relative humidity,the diffusion coefficient of 13 medicine ingredients reached the highest.The diffusivity was controlled by film mass transfer.However,both film mass transfer and Fick's second law can be existed at the same time under different temperature and humidity.It was concluded that the diffusion of water in the traditional Chinese medicine might have been driven by a variety of diffusion mechanism,which was obviously affected by environmental factors.

ABSTRACT
Based on the theory and approach of International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), the literatures on the improvement of physical function by physical exercise were reviewed. People with disabilities can improve their body functions, in-cluding mental function, cardiovascular, blood, immune and respiratory function and neuromuscular skeletal and motor related functions via sport and exercise rehabilitation. Some advice was suggested about sports rehabilitation for the disabled.
ABSTRACT
In this paper, microcrystalline cellulose WJ101 was used as a model material to investigate the effect of various process parameters on granule yield and friability after dry granulation with a single factor and the effect of comprehensive inspection process parameters on the effect of granule yield and friability, then the correlation between process parameters and granule quality was established. The regress equation was established between process parameters and granule yield and friability by multiple regression analysis, the affecting the order of the size of the order of the process parameters on granule yield and friability was: rollers speed > rollers pressure > speed of horizontal feed. Granule yield was positively correlated with pressure and speed of horizontal feed and negatively correlated rollers speed, while friability was on the contrary. By comparison, fitted value and real value, fitted and real value are basically the same of no significant differences (P > 0.05) and with high precision and reliability.
