RESUMO
ObjectiveTo design a simple leg-sliding rehabilitation equipment for patients with lower limb dysfunction who need to exercise their leg muscles in bed at the early stage of rehabilitation. MethodsThe mechanism scheme was designed using the crank slider transmission system. The kinematic model was established and the structural dimensions were determined according to the human joint mobility, analysis and verification were then implemented; and the strutural strength of the machanism was verified, and based on the analysis, a protype was built to verify the feasibility of proposed scheme. ResultsThe range of joint activities of the proposed mechanism was in line with the normal human joint activities, the structural strength met the requirements, the prototype operated smoothly, and the actual running speed was basically consistent with the theoretical planning speed. ConclusionThis design could meet the needs of rehabilitation training for bedridden patients with lower limb dysfunction at the early stage of rehabilitation. It has the advantages of small size and light weight, which provides reference value for promoting the development of miniaturized and lightweight lower extremity rehabilitation equipment.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the protective effects of Cordyceps sinensis from Tibet and Qinghai on acute renal injury in-duced by gentamicin sulphate ( GM) . Methods:The rat model of acute renal injury induced by GM was established. The biochemical indicators including blood urea nitrogen ( BUN) and serum creatinine ( Scr) in serum and NAG enzyme and urine total protein in urine were detected. HE staining was used to observe the pathologic changes in kidney. Results:Compared with those in the model group, the levels of BUN and Scr in serum and NAG enzyme and urine total protein in urine were significantly reduced in the Cordyceps sinen-sis groups, and kidney cells necrosis was improved in the Cordyceps sinensis groups at low, medium and high dose (P0.05). Conclusion:Cordyceps sinensis from Qinghai and Tibet both have protective effect on acute kidney injury induced by GM in rats, and the difference between them is not remarkable.
