Introduction: Recently, the obesity rate in Chinese universities has increased substantially and the indicators of physical fitness have declined. The physical quality of college students is an alarming problem that cannot be ignored. The results of structured work could establish a basis for colleges and universities to formulate scientific functional physical training programs. Objective: Analyze the role of functional physical training in teaching physical education to male college students in colleges and universities. Methods: 116 male volunteer students from 4 colleges and universities were selected and divided into control and experimental groups. The groups received three physical education classes lasting 90 minutes for eight weeks. The experimental group received an additional 30 minutes of functional physical training. Both groups were tested for vital capacity, seated forward bending, standing long jump, 50-meter run, pull-up, and 1000-meter test. The tests were compared and statistica50-meteryzed. Results: After 1000-meters of training, the experimental group was superior to the control group on all measures except sitting forward flexion. The results showed significant changes (P0.05). Conclusion: The 8 weeks of functional physical training promoted a significant effect on improving the physical health of college students. Functional physical training should be appropriately reinforced in university physical education classes to improve students' physical fitness. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.

Background: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in China. Hence, how best to live with and improve the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of this growing population of women is thus becoming of great public health importance. The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship of lifestyle habits to HRQoL among younger and older women who were initially diagnosed with breast cancer within the first two weeks, determine the contribution of lifestyle habits factors on HRQoL.Methods: A multi-center, hospital-based, case control study was conducted among breast cancer women from 22 hospitals in 11 provinces or municipalities in northern and eastern China from April 2012 to April 2013. The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast Cancer (FACT-B) simplified Chinese version 4 was used to measure HRQoL. Chi-square test, ANOVA and Multivariable generalized linear models were conducted to verify differences in HRQoL between two groups and to evaluate the contribution of lifestyle habits factors ( including smoking, passive smoking, alcohol intake, Tea, Coffee, Sleep satisfaction, Current life satisfaction, Physical activity, BMI) on HRQoL of breast cancer patients.Results: 1199 eligible breast cancer patients were used for analysis. Younger women (age Conclusion: The relationship of the nine lifestyle habit items to HRQoL were different between younger and older women. Associated variable of low HRQoL can help clinicians take intervention early in order to improve the prognosis of breast cancer patients.

This study aimed to investigate risk factors associated with breast cancer among Han Chinese women in northern and eastern China. A matched case-control study involving 1489 patients with breast cancer and 1489 controls was conducted across 21 hospitals in 11 provinces in China, from April 2012 to April 2013. We developed a structured questionnaire to record information from face-to-face interviews with participants. Student's t-tests, Pearson's chi-square tests, and univariate and multivariate conditional logistic regression analyses were used to identify variables with significant differences between the case and control groups. Ten variables were identified (P

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the potential ability of medicated serum of Erzhi pills on growth, proliferation and inflammation of the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 cells. Methods: 3-month-old female Sprague–Dawley rats were used to prepared medicated serum, and randomly assigned into four groups: control group (distillated water), low doses (2.25g/kg/d), middle doses (4.5g/kg/d), high does (9.0g/kg/d). The growth curve was meas-ured by MTT method, the proliferation was examined by colony formation assay. Inflam-matory cytokines IL-1β, IL-18 and IL-6 was detected by Quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Western blot was used to examine the expression of NF-kB signal pathway. Results: The medicated serum of Erzhi pills could inhibit the growth and proliferation of breast cancer cell MCF-7, especially, in the group of middle doses and high does (P

To investigate whether chronic bacterial prostatitis (CBP) increases oxidative stress and damage in patients with CBP, and to explore its possible mechanism.Eighty patients with CBP and 80 healthy adults as controls were enrolled in a case-control study, in which levels of nitric oxide (NO), vitamin C (VC), and vitamin E (VE) in plasma, as well as malondialdehyde (MDA), activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase (CAT) in erythrocytes were determined by spectrophotometry.Compared with the average values of NO, VC, VE, MDA, SOD, and CAT in the healthy control group, those of plasma NO and erythrocyte MDA in the CBP group were significantly increased (P0.001), and those of plasma VC and VE as well as erythrocyte SOD and CAT in the CBP group were significantly decreased (P0.001). Findings from partial correlation analysis for course of the disease and NO, VC, VE, MDA, SOD, and CAT in 80 patients with CBP, adjusted for age, suggested that with prolonged course of the disease, values of NO and MDA were gradually increased (P0.001), and those of VC, VE, SOD, and CAT were gradually decreased (P0.05-0.001). The findings from stepwise regression analysis for course of the disease and NO, VC, VE, MDA, SOD, and CAT in CBP group suggested that the model of stepwise regression was Y = -19.1160 + 0.3112MDA + 0.0337NO, F = 22.1734, P0.001, r = 0.6045, P0.001. The findings from the reliability analysis for VC, VE, SOD, CAT, NO, and MDA in the CBP group showed that the reliability coefficients' alpha (6 items) was 0.7195, P0.0001, and the standardized item alpha was 0.9307, P0.0001.There exist increased oxidative stress and damage induced by chronic bacterial prostatitis in patients, and such a phenomenon is closely related to the course of disease.

The level of total adiponectin, a mixture of different adiponectin forms, has been reported associated with breast cancer risk with inconsistent results. Whether the different forms play different roles in breast cancer risk prediction is unclear. To examine this, we measured total and high molecular weight (HMW) adiponectin in a case-control study (1167 sets). Higher circulating HMW adiponectin was negatively associated with breast cancer risk after adjusting for menopausal status and family history of breast cancer (P=0.024). We analyzed the relationship between adiponectin and breast cancer risk in 6 subgroups. Higher circulating HMW adiponectin was also negatively associated with breast cancer risk (P=0.020, 0.014, 0.035) in the subgroups of postmenopausal women, negative family history of breast cancer, BMI>=24.0. Total adiponectin was positively associated with breast cancer (P=0.028) in the subgroup of BMI=24.0 subgroups, whereas higher circulating HMW adiponectin levels is a risk factor in women with a family history of breast cancer. Further investigation of different forms of adiponectin on breast cancer risk is needed.

The development of a fieldbus based electro-hydraulic converter with functions of non-sensor fault self-diagnostic, fault prediction, fault-tolerant and fault self-removing is described. Non-sensor fault self-diagnostic and fault prediction were implemented through the detection of an oscillation current. The current was selected as the criterion of jam fault. Redundancy construction was adopted to realize the fault-tolerant function. Also, the switching principle of the redundancy construction was discussed. A concept of “electrical hammer” was presented to resolve the jam fault on-line automatically. A CEBus based powerline communication network was developed to fulfill the communication demands of field devices which are normally interconnected by “low voltage” wiring. The effectiveness of the proposed converter was demonstrated through simulations and experiments. It was concluded that the converter has a promising future in engineering applications, especially in turbine governing systems that suffer from jam fault. Keywords : Fault diagnostic, fault predict, fault tolerant, fault self-removing, fieldbus, electro-hydraulic, non-sensor

To evaluate the effect of decoction for invigorating the kidney and improving blood circulation to thrombosis on rabbits blood stasis model.Thirty rabbits were randomly divided into normal group, model group, heavy dose group, slight dose group and xue shuan ning group. Tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI), fibrinogen (Fbg) and D-dimer (DD) were investigated after those rabbits had been treated. One was selected randomly from each group to observe pathological changes.There was significant difference in t-PA, PAI, Fbg and DD between normal group and other groups (P0.01). Among groups of heavy dose, slight dose, xue shuan ning and model, the statistical differences were significant, as well as among groups of heavy dose, slight dose and xue shuan ning (P0.05). However, there was no statistical difference between heavy dose group and slight dose group (P0.05). The pathological changes in model group were most serious, and those in xue shuan ning were less serious. There were slight pathological change in heavy dose group and light dose group.Models were made successfully. Heavy dose group and slight dose group have stronger effect on thrombosis than xue shuan ning group.

To evaluate the effects of Yi-Shen-Huo-Xue Fang on expression of GMP-140 and cleaning out the oxygenic free radicle on rabbits blood stasis model.Thirty rabbits were divided randomly into five groups as the normal group, model group, large dose of "Yi-Shen-Huo-Xue Fang" group, small dose of "Yi-Shen-Huo-Xue Fang" group and "Xue-Shuan-Xin-Mai-Ning" group. After being treated respectively, granule membrane protein 140(GMP-140), erythrocyte sueroxide dismutase (E-SOD), erythrocyte lipid peroxide(E-LPO), plasma lipid peroxide(P-LPO) were checked up.The GMP-140, E-SOD, E-LPO, P-LPO in normal control were compared with those in model groups, With the difference(P0.01), model control group was compared with large dose group and small dose group (P0.01), with "Xue-Shuan-Xin-Mai-Ning" group(P0.05), large dose group was compared with "Xue-Shuan-Xin-Mai-Ning" group(P0.05), and large dose group were compared with small dose group (P0.05).The model was made successfully. Large dose group, small dose group and "xue-shuan-xin-mai-ning" group can inhibit expression of GMP-140, enhence SOD activity and decrease LPO content on blood stasis rabbit model. Large dose group and small dose group have stronger effect than "xue-shuan-xin-mai-ning" group.
