Study on the Food and Drug Administration System Based on Theory of Hall Three-Dimensional Structure / 医药导报

The institutional reform of Chinese food and drug administration initiated the structural adjustment proceeding of linkage and optimizing about the responsibilities and institutional integration. Local governments have adopted the synthetically localized or professional regulatory mode. It is necessary to think the general institutional reform trend by adopting the strategic height and new thinking. The paper proposed the analytical framework of Hall three-dimensional structure about the institutional reform of Chinese drug and food administration based on the analysis of the administration system evolution, institutional reform, and so on. Then the author discussed the internal relationship among some factors of the food and drug administration system. It would bring to play the function and performance of the food and drug administration based on three-dimensional system.

Obese elderly women exhibit low postural stability: a novel three-dimensional evaluation system

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the multisegmental static postural balance of active eutrophic and obese elderly women using a three-dimensional system under different sensory conditions. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 31 elderly women (16 eutrophic and 15 obese) aged 65 to 75 years. The following anthropometric measurements were obtained: weight, height, waist and hip circumference, and handgrip strength. The physical activity level was evaluated using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. Body composition was measured using the deuterium oxide dilution technique. The Polhemus® Patriot (three-dimensional) equipment was used to measure the parameters of postural balance along the anteroposterior and laterolateral axes. The data acquisition involved one trial of 60 s to test the limit of stability and four trials of 90 s each under the following conditions: (1) eyes open, stable surface; (2) eyes closed, stable surface; (3) eyes open, unstable surface; and (4) eyes closed, unstable surface. RESULTS: For the limit of stability, significant differences were observed in the maximum anteroposterior and laterolateral displacement (p<0.01) and in the parameter maximum anteroposterior displacement in the eyes closed stable surface condition (p<0.01) and maximum anteroposterior and laterolateral displacement in the eyes open unstable surface (p<0.01 and p = 0.03) and eyes closed unstable surface (p<0.01 and p<0.01) conditions. CONCLUSIONS: Obese elderly women exhibited a lower stability limit (lower sway area) compared with eutrophic women, leaving them more vulnerable to falls.
