Yukun Chu, Jia Xu

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 183 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.183

Abstract：

Athletes are prone to injury during daily training and competition. In order to achieve better results, they are subjected to heavy training every day, who challenge the limits of their bodies. Excessive exertion, inattention, and irregular movements may all lead to muscle strains in athletes. The hamstrings, consisting of the biceps, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus, are susceptible to injury. Traditional research on hamstring injury rehabilitation training focuses on the prevention of muscle strains and the restoration of muscle elasticity. However, traditional training methods are often unable to make targeted adjustments to each athlete’s specific situation. The actual application effect is not good. In order to improve the effectiveness of rehabilitation training for hamstring injury, this paper has introduced the BP neural network algorithm model. Based on the BP (Back Propagation) algorithm model, this paper has conducted an in-depth analysis of the causes of muscle strain in athletes. The results showed that the average accuracy of the algorithm was 97.83%, which had a high accuracy for the analysis of the cause. Muscle strain rehabilitation training methods were further analyzed. Research showed that the BP neural network algorithm could optimize up to 31%, and the effectiveness was above 96%. In the comparison of these two methods, it can be clearly seen that the algorithm in this paper is more scientific and efficient, which is conducive to better and faster recovery of the injured hamstrings of athletes.

Abstract：

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of early weaning and nutritional interventions on growth performance, nutrient digestion and metabolism, and serological indices of hu sheep lambs, with a view to providing a basis for the feasibility of early weaning of hu sheep lambs under conditions of supplemental milk replacer. Ninety neonatal hu sheep lambs were weaned at 21 days ( n = 60) (divided into two groups: early weaned, EW; and resveratrol-fed, RSV) as well as 49 days ( n = 30) (control group, CON) weaning, and the trial period was 90 days. The results showed that: 1) there was no significant difference ( P > 0.05) in the initial and final weights of the lambs, and the average daily gain (ADG) of the EW and RSV groups was significantly lower than that of the CON group ( P < 0.05) from 31 to 45 days of age. Early weaned lambs were more susceptible to weaning stress compared to late weaned lambs and the effect of nutritional intervention (feeding resveratrol) on lamb growth performance was not significant. 2) The apparent digestibility of crude protein (CP) in the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P < 0.05), and the nitrogen intake, net protein utilization and protein biological value indexes of lake lambs in the experimental group were significantly different from those of the control group ( P < 0.05). 3) Early feeding of resveratrol was not significant in improving the digestive metabolism of nutrients. 4) Early weaning as well as the addition of resveratrol had a significant effect on the serum GLU and TC indexes of the lambs ( P < 0.05), but did not show a significant effect on any of the other indexes.

Abstract：

Breathing exercises are widely used to enhance respiratory function and athletic performance. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of a modified exercise regimen on respiratory parameters and its effect on the performance of young swimmers in competition. Thirty-one swimmers aged 16–17 from various clubs in Latvia were selected, comprising an experimental group ( n = 15, height: 174.36 ± 7.85 cm, weight: 65.80 ± 9.35 kg, body mass index: 21.60 ± 1.54) and a control group ( n = 16, height: 180.78 ± 7.05 cm, weight: 69.90 ± 6.49 kg, body mass index: 21.40 ± 1.56). With an average of eight years of experience, participants trained for approximately 43–45 weeks annually (pool and gym sessions), with an average training duration of 20 ± 2 hours per week. Measurements were conducted on days one and 30, involving spirometry and swimming performance assessment based on the best results in the freestyle 100-meter distance. The experiment consisted of a modified breathing exercise performed thrice weekly for four weeks. Significant improvements were observed in the experimental group compared to the control group in forced vital capacity ( p = 0.02), peak inspiratory flow ( p = 0.001), and performance ( p = 0.001), with p -values < 0.05. However, no significant changes were noted in peak expiratory flow ( p = 0.46 > 0.05). The findings indicate that modified breathing exercises effectively enhance respiratory parameters and performance in competitive swimmers.

Lulu Yang, Yu Dong

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 215 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.215

Abstract：

In the process of sports training and competition, if sports injury occurs, it not only has a serious impact on the physical and psychological of athletes, but also has a negative impact on the overall training and competition. During the competition, if effective treatment is not obtained, it can have an irreversible impact on athletes’ future participation in sports. Nowadays, many athletes lack knowledge on the prevention and treatment of sports injuries during physical exercise. Therefore, it is urgent to conduct research and analysis on the treatment methods for training injury rehabilitation. In this paper, the visual analogue scale (VAS) and cell landscape analysis technology were used to analyze and compare the therapeutic effects of platelet rich plasma (PRP) injection technology, diclofenac, indomethacin, Qili San and placebo tablets. Focusing on how these drugs promote rehabilitation by affecting mechanical parameters and tissue mechanical properties, it is concluded that PRP injection technique, diclofenac and indomethacin improve the treatment effect of pain after rehabilitation of sports injuries. The number of people who completely recovered with Indomethacin was 4 and that with placebo was 2. The results show that these drugs significantly improve the mechanical properties of the tissue and contribute to the rehabilitation process. This study has further explored the drug treatment of sports injury, explored several drug treatment mechanisms and efficacy and has guiding significance for subsequent drug treatment of sports injury.

Pan Wang, Peijin Liu, Wen Ao

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 307 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.307

Abstract：

Micro mechanics involves the examination of the mechanical behavior of heterogeneous materials, taking into account inhomogeneities such as voids, fractures, and inclusions, and building on mathematical models developed. Composites bring engineering design barriers despite their strengths. Composite manufacturing and processing need specialized equipment, strategies, and labor, ensuring they are challenging and expensive. Mechanical behavior deals with how a composite material performs if faced with mechanical effects and action. Scalable sensor-assisted multi-scale computational Methods (SS-MSCM) are used to investigate topics ranging from the molecular basis of soot production in combustion to how molecule-level flaws influence macroscopic mechanical qualities. Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) are generated by mixing graphene fiber with a resin, like vinyl ester and epoxy, to render a composite material with superior performance to the component ingredients. Hence, SS-MSCM-CFRP has Improved mechanical qualities achieved by incorporating nano-reinforcements, including carbon nanofibers and graphene nanoplates, into the CFRP matrix: enhanced flexural and compressive strengths, energy absorption upon impact, toughness to fracture, and interlaminar bonding. Composite materials feature excellent mechanical qualities like high strength and stiffness, fatigue resistance, and durability. It is possible to insert scalable sensors throughout the manufacturing process, which enables real-time monitoring of structural health, strain, and other factors. Scalable sensor-assisted multi-scale computational methods offer enhanced accuracy, real-time monitoring, and cost-effectiveness by integrating sensor data with computational models, improving predictions and failure mechanism insights. However, they face limitations like sensor dependency, computational complexity, data integration challenges, and high implementation costs, leading to potential discrepancies between simulation and experimental results. Important qualities include corrosion resistance, thermal conductivity, and electrical conductivity. As the composite materials develop to satisfy the established mechanical stress and temperature conditions, they offer high durability and strength.

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 336 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.336

Abstract：

The hospitality industry embraces digital technologies to enhance efficiency, guest satisfaction, and environmental sustainability. Integrating biosensors and big data analytics allows hotels to monitor operational processes while maintaining high ecological health standards. However, the impact on environmental health is not fully understood, leading to suboptimal decisions and missed opportunities. This research proposes a novel Tabu Search Drove-Extended Multi-Layer Perceptron (TSD-EMLP) to evaluate the effectiveness of digital operations in hotels through the use of biosensors and big data for predicting hotel environmental conditions. Initially, smart biosensors are deployed in key areas and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning denoted as HVAC systems in the hotel, then the water quality data, noise levels, lighting quality, waste management data, operational data, financial and operational effectiveness data are collected and transmitted to the Internet of Things (IoT) cloud for further process. Interquartile Range (IQR) utilizes the IoT cloud data to remove sensor errors and anomalous events to frame outlier data for the Wavelet Packet Transform (WPT) feature extraction process to decompose sensor data into detailed frequency bands, allowing for precise analysis of complex environmental signals, TSD-EMLP model predicts the environmental health in hotels using the decomposed data. The results demonstrate reducing energy consumption, ventilation systems, indoor environment control, and guest satisfaction, improving air quality, and adjusting environmental settings based on real-time environmental conditions through TSD-EMLP optimized settings. TSD-EMLP classification model achieved high accuracy in predicting hotel environmental health, with a low improvement in guest satisfaction metrics.

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 276 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.276

Abstract：

The physical health of Chinese ethnic minority college students is often concerned, but there is limited research on continuously and effectively monitoring physical health and screening out groups with inadequate physique. This study mainly proves an effective method for screening out normal and unqualified physique groups through longitudinal and dynamic physique investigation. This study tracked Chinese college students’ physique changes during a 4-year physical-fitness system. Using body mass index combined with test results of lung capacity, standing long jump, Sit and Reach, and the 50-m run to evaluate the physical health of students. Calculate the proportion of individuals of different BMI (Body Mass Index) types to the total number of sampled individuals. Using SPSS 22.0 and T-test to examine the differences in physique among 3314 senior students. The quantitative data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Physical health is a dynamic process of change. The BMI combinations of 772 minority senior students were divided into four types. Type 1 ( n = 117): normal as freshmen but unqualified as seniors. Type 2 ( n = 149) was unqualified in both freshmen and seniors. The items with decreased physical fitness for Type 1 and Type 2 were: boys’ lung capacity and 50-m run. Type 3 ( n = 72) was unqualified in freshmen and normal in seniors. The items with decreased physical fitness were girl’ 50-m run. Type 4 ( n = 434) was normal in both freshmen and seniors. The items with decreased physical fitness were: boys’ lung capacity and 50-m run. A four-year longitudinal dynamic survey combining BMI with physique can effectively monitor students’ physical health. Minority students’ proportion of normal BMI has been declining, the main contributors are boys. Girls pay attention to weight management, their physique approaches that of the Han, even surpassing Han in Sit and Reach, and 50-m run. However, boys neglected weight management and their BMI significantly increased year by year. Their overall physical fitness is lower than that of the Han, especially with lung capacity far lower than Han, and their physical health is a key focus of physique monitoring.

Using biosensors and machine learning algorithms to analyse the influencing factors of study tours on students’ mental health

Kunfeng Li

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 328 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.328

Abstract：

College students nowadays will inevitably deal with stress. Personal emotional and behavioural responses may be extremely strong when faced with stress. One of the most prevalent sources of stress for college students throughout the globe is mental health issues connected to stress. However, there is a lack of research focusing on the impact of specific activities, such as study tours, on students’ mental health and how these activities can be monitored using advanced technologies. As a result of its ability to analyze, classify, and alert college students’ psychological data with high quality, deep learning and machine learning have recently found widespread application in college students’ mental health education and management. Moreover, the integration of biomechanics and biosensor data offers new insights into understanding the physical and psychological impacts of study tours on mental health. This can potentially promote the development of colleges’ mental health education programs. Hence, this study proposes the Biosensor-based and Deep Neural Network-based College Student Mental Health Prediction Model (BDNN-CSMHPM) for detecting the mental stress of college students during study tours. Using biosensor data, including EEG and biomechanical metrics, this model employs the most effective BDNN to categorize the mental health condition as normal, negative, or positive. Consequently, BDNN is utilized to categorize the gathered emotional and biomechanical information, and based on the classification outcomes, the emotional condition of college students is determined. Considering that different features might stand in for different elements in the original data, it is necessary to extract several biosensors features to represent the information in the original EEG data accurately. Second, fusing various features is essential in the auto-learn model integration method. Third, the BDNN is fed the combined features, resulting in emotion classification. The numerical outcomes demonstrate that the BDNN-CSMHPM model enhances the student’s mental health prediction ratio of 98.9%, accuracy ratio of 96.4%, emotion recognition ratio of 95.3%, Pearson correlation coefficient rate of 97.2% and psychological monitoring ratio of 94.3% compared to other popular methods.

Hui Jia, Yali Kong

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 311 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.311

Abstract：

Graphene-based 2D carbon composites and Morchella mushrooms are used in the paper to study the mechanobiological mechanisms of soil lead remediation. Soil is contaminated with lead, which threatens ecosystems and human health, making it even more important to find remedies. To fully comprehend these processes, present-day materials, and organic compounds are needed to improve soil nutrition and eradicate lead. To deal with the challenge of finding effective means of lead removal; limitations associated with traditional soil pollution remediation methods; and merging biology and material sciences. Multifunctional graphene wettability-patterned nanocoated membranes (MGW-PNM) is a novel technique developed to overcome these challenges. Such processes result in membranes with different wettability patterns that take advantage of the properties of graphene. This facilitates better interaction between the membrane itself and the surrounding soil as well as lead contaminants by modifying its hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity characteristics. For effective removal of lead, extensive simulation studies were done using MGW-PNM. In line with this, it can be inferred that MGW-PNM also remediates highly capable soils at high-efficiency levels. This was established when comparing modern techniques to past ones where considerable improvements were made on how much lead is extracted from them. The study suggests new ways of addressing environmental contamination resulting from microbial activities in soils by combining advanced materials with biological substances such as Morchella spp. For this purpose, it investigates various molecular interactions occurring among carbonaceous species called Morchella microbes and environmental pollutants like those including Pb.

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 321 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.321

Abstract：

Athletes’ success in field and track competitions has been reported to be determined by their sprinting skills. Therefore, it is crucial to understand what biomechanical and physiological factors contribute to the most effective sprinting attributes. The scientific research on sprint evaluation has predominantly dealt with discrete metrics simultaneously, avoiding the interplay between multiple factors as the sprint progresses. Incorporating all the factors that could potentially influence the impact of excellent sprint ability is the primary objective of the present study. This research investigates the biomechanics of sprinting using a Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) hybrid approach, focusing mainly on factors like stride length, ground reaction forces, joint angles, and muscle activation patterns. The hybrid Machine Learning (ML) model accurately identifies between the two groups, and the results indicate that sprinters performing at the national level have more extended movements, higher reaction time to ground forces, and improved joint angles. The research project set up a 20-meter track for the race, and 30 participants, divided 50-50 between two distinct groups that included comparable college-level and national-level performers, participated. With a 92.4% accuracy, 90.2% precision, and 90.9% F1 score, the hybrid approach performed better than standard models in predicting optimum sprinting patterns. The higher efficiency is caused by phase-specific changes that the model unattended, such as enhanced knee angles and joint accelerated motion in the swing phase. In comparison, the SVM model, though respectable, lags behind with an accuracy of 85.7% and a lower precision and recall (82.4% and 80.9%, respectively). The RF model performed better than SVM with an accuracy of 88.1% and a balanced F1-score of 86.8% but still fell short of the CNN-LSTM hybrid. The standalone LSTM model performed relatively well, with an accuracy of 89.3% and an F1 score of 88.1%, showing its capability but still not matching the hybrid model’s performance.

Abstract：

Aims: To examine burn shock monitoring and the connection between lactate clearance and shock prognosis in individuals with severe burns. Materials and methods: This retrospective analysis comprised 100 patients with significant burns treated in our hospital between August 2017 and August 2021. The patients were split into two groups based on whether they survived or not: 50 cases each in the survival and death groups. Both groups had their blood lactate levels, partial pressure of oxygen, and other relevant indices tested. Analysis was done on the correlation between lactate level, lactate clearance, and death as well as the association between lactate clearance and prognosis at each time and point. Results: The lactate clearance rates at 6 h, 12 h, 24 h and 24 h in the survival group were greater than those in the death group, and the differences were significant ( p < 0.05). The lactate clearance rates at each time point were compared at a cut-off of 20%, and patients with 6 h and 12 h blood lactate clearance rates ≥20.0% had lower prognostic morbidity and mortality rates than those <20.0%, with a significant difference ( p < 0.05). Conclusion: Lactate clearance is directly correlated with the prognosis of patients with severe burns, and survivors also have a high clearance rate. As a result, in patients with severe burns, lactate clearance monitoring during the shock phase can improve prognostic prediction and enable early treatment plan modification based on outcomes.

Abstract：

Introduction: Mental health monitoring encompasses the systematic observation and assessment of an individual’s psychological well-being, aiming to detect, understand and manage mental health conditions. It involves various techniques and interventions tailored to support individuals in achieving and maintaining optimal mental wellness. Recent advancements include the use of biosensors and biomechanics to analyze physiological signals that correlate with mental states, providing a more comprehensive understanding of psychological well-being. Aim: The aim of this research is to construct an innovative mental health monitoring system established on intelligent algorithms and biomechanical data through behaviour analysis and intervention strategies. Methodology: We propose a novel Snow Ablation-driven Bi-directional Fine-tuned Recurrent Neural Network (SA-BFRNN) to identify the state of mental health. In addition to behavioural data, biosensors are employed to collect real-time physiological signals such as heart rate variability, skin conductance, and muscle tension, offering objective markers of mental stress and anxiety. These biomechanical inputs are integrated into the system for multi-modal analysis. We employ the SA algorithm, iteratively removing less influential connections and nodes based on their impact on model performance. This process enhances network efficiency and generalization capabilities, refining the BFRNN for mental health state identification. Utilizing a questionnaire with 25 questions, administered to a selected group of 756 individuals, we validate our proposed model. Biosensor data is synchronized with questionnaire responses to improve the precision of mental state identification. Clustering-derived labels are validated with mean opinion score. These labels inform classifiers for individual mental health prediction, aligning with our objective of robust mental health assessment through data-driven approaches. SA-BFRNN integrates both forward and backward temporal information, enhancing its ability to discern subtle patterns in behaviour. Through iterative fine-tuning, our network learns to adapt to diverse datasets, enabling precise identification of mental health states. Research findings: In the result evaluation phase, we thoroughly examine how well our proposed SA-BFRNN model recognizes various states of mental health across different parameters. Our findings also highlight the significance of incorporating biomechanics, where biosensor data showed a strong correlation with mental health indicators, thereby augmenting the accuracy of the system. Our findings emphasize the efficacy of the SA-BFRNN technique, as demonstrated by its overall performance in terms of recall (92.56%), accuracy (90.13%), F1-score (88.16%) and precision (89.23%). Our experimental results unequivocally demonstrate that our proposed model performed better than other traditional approaches in classifying contents from multimodal data, showing notable enhancements in accuracy and robustness, particularly under dynamic conditions.

Ayman Alhammad, Hussain Ghulam, Ibrahim Al Zaqrati, Abdulaziz Alsahli, Abdulaziz Alhazmi, Husam Almalki, Omar Althomali

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 342 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.342

Abstract：

Football’s global popularity is often overshadowed by frequent lower limb injuries, particularly hamstring strains, which are linked to imbalances in the strength ratio of hamstring-to-quadriceps (H/Q). Research on these factors among Saudi Premier League players, specifically in Madinah City, is limited. Our study is a cross-sectional study that assessed 42 male professional football players from Ohoud Football Club, divided into Underage 17 (UD- 17) and Under age 19 (UD-19) of age groups. The Strength of muscle for hamstrings and quadriceps, as well as the H/Q ratio, was measured using handheld dynamometers (HDD), and demographic data were analyzed using SPSSv26. Results showed that UD-19 players had significantly greater quadriceps strength on both dominants (dominant and non-dominant) sides compared to UD-17 players, with no significant differences in strength of hamstring. The ratio of hamstring to quadriceps was significantly higher in UD-17 players on the dominant side compared to UD-19 players, but statistically significant differences were not found on the non-dominant side. These results suggest that quadriceps strength develops with age and training, potentially reducing injury risk, while the strength of hamstring stabilizes earlier. Tailored training programs focusing on quadriceps strength and balanced hamstring development are recommended for improving injury prevention and performance. Future research involving larger and more diverse samples could further validate these findings and provide a deeper understanding of muscle dynamics in young football players.

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 265 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.265

Abstract：

Dark tea, a traditional fermented tea in China, is known for its unique flavor and enhanced health potential due to its fermentation process. However, previous studies on the evolution of its active ingredients and antioxidant properties have been limited by inadequate sample collection, single analytical methods, and insufficient data processing. To address these challenges, this study employed a comprehensive strategy to analyze the dynamic changes of active compounds and antioxidant efficacy during dark tea fermentation using refined sampling, diverse assay techniques, and advanced data analysis. A multi-point temporal sampling method was used to capture key stages of fermentation, ensuring comprehensive data. High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and various antioxidant assays (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH), 2, 2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), Ferric ion reducing antioxidant power (FRAP)) enabled precise quantification of tea polyphenols, catechins, theaflavins, and thearubigins. Multivariate statistical analysis revealed that tea polyphenols and catechins decreased, theaflavins increased then slightly declined, and thearubigins steadily rose as fermentation progressed. These changes were linked to fluctuations in antioxidant capacity, peaking at around 30 mg/g of phenolic compounds. The study also explored optimizing fermentation to enhance the retention of beneficial components, maximizing antioxidant properties and improving product quality. This research advances the understanding of dark tea fermentation and supports the sustainable development of the dark tea industry.

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 150 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.150

Abstract：

There are many dynamic indicators of jumping ability, and the athlete’s neural activity pattern is an important factor in regulating limb activities. This article uses data mining technology to collect, preprocess, data modeling and analysis, and data visualization of dynamic index data of athletes’ neural activity patterns of jumping ability. The results show that the jumping ability of athletes with higher neural activity intensity increased significantly after training to around 40 cm–50 cm, while athletes with lower neural activity intensity did not change significantly and remained around 30 cm–35 cm. The overall learning ability of athletes with higher levels of neural activity improved by about 10 cm, and the base of neural activity also increased significantly. It shows that there is a significant correlation between the intensity of neural activity and dynamic indicators of jumping ability, which is the main driving force for athletes’ jumping explosive power. The research results can help formulate reasonable and scientific training methods to improve athletes’ jumping ability and overall sports level.

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 186 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.186

Abstract：

Chronic diseases are the number one killer in the world today, and the most common cause of chronic diseases is lack of exercise. Research on the application of artificial intelligence technology in the medical field can shorten the distance between clinical best practice and practical application, and promote the standardized management of clinicians according to specifications. In this paper, three different exercise methods, continuous aerobic, anaerobic, and control, were used to conduct a 12-week study. This paper discussed the effects of three different forms of exercise on the body shape, body composition, and metabolism of patients with chronic diseases, and discussed the intervention effects of the same exercise mode in different periods (0–6 weeks, 6–12 weeks), to provide a theoretical basis for more effective and targeted choice of exercise intervention programs. Through training load, training frequency, training sequence, training interval, and other factors, a training plan can be designed. To avoid mistakes, experts often try to do some items that are prone to mistakes, especially lung function measurement. The scores of self-care, extraction, standing, occupation/housework, social activities, and total scores were significantly lower than those before intervention ( P < 0.01). Advanced resistance kinetic energy can significantly improve the exercise and cardiopulmonary function of patients with various types of chronic diseases. Advanced resistance kinetic energy can significantly promote the strength and explosive force of the shoulder, waist, and back muscles in chronic patients, and can significantly promote the muscle adaptability of the shoulder, waist, and back muscles in chronic patients.

Abstract：

Exercise is one of the important ways for people to exercise, with characteristics such as sociality and strong participation. Especially with the improvement of the level of economic development and the improvement of the quality of life of the people, more and more people begin to attach importance to the maintenance of their own health. Physical fitness monitoring, as an effective means, is widely used in daily life, especially among the elderly. However, most of the existing monitoring methods are relatively simple, lacking pertinence, and the data collection process is relatively cumbersome and unstable, which cannot meet current needs. Therefore, it is very necessary to explore a new type of equipment that can more comprehensively and accurately monitor various physiological parameters of the human body to replace existing traditional detection technologies. Service Robots are currently the most promising intelligent hardware products. They mainly provide personalized services centered on users, sensing user behavior and implementing intelligent decision-making based on their characteristics, thereby better meeting the needs of different groups of people. This article focused on the research and development of Service Robots, and designed a comprehensive solution for Service Robots based on theories such as the Internet of Things, cloud computing, big data technology, and artificial intelligence. This article compared existing intelligent monitoring systems with fitness monitoring systems based on Service Robots, and proved that the user experience of fitness monitoring with robot participation has improved by about 4.68%. Its application scenarios were richer and its effects were more significant, enabling it to better complete tasks such as analysis and prediction of physical fitness status, real-time warning, etc., reducing the risk of people suffering from diseases, and enhancing individual protection awareness.

Jiarong Liu

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 277 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.277

Abstract：

In response to the problems of low reliability and long time consumption in traditional research on sound production, this article used electromyography (EMG) signals as input signals to build a high-precision sound production mechanics model. A Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller was used to dynamically adjust the model and develop a real-time feedback system. This article established a detailed three-dimensional (3D) finite element model including the vocal cords and throat, defined the nonlinear elastic properties and linear elastic properties of different tissues, and used tetrahedral grid partitioning technology to improve the computational accuracy of the model. Through a EMG sensor, an individual EMG was collected and filtered to remove noise. The processed EMGs were used as input parameters for the finite element model to drive the muscle units in the model. By using a PID controller to receive real-time EMG input, the error was calculated and the model was adjusted, enabling accurate simulation of the mechanical properties of vocal cord vibration under different vocal states and achieving real-time feedback. Considering the complexity of vocal cord vibration driven by biological signals, this article simulated and analyzed the modal characteristics of vocal cord vibration, and analyzed the differences in vocal cord vibration characteristics under different vocal states. The sound pressure distribution and resonance frequency were simulated and analyzed to understand the propagation characteristics of sound. Finally, by comparing and analyzing the simulated data with the actual collected data, it was found that the maximum relative error rate of the model under different sound states was 6.14%, and the overall error rate of the model was relatively low, which verified the reliability of the model. The findings demonstrated that the feedback delays of the model in different sound states were all within 100 milliseconds, indicating that the system had high real-time performance and accuracy, which was promising in practical applications.

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 227 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.227

Abstract：

Biochemical monitoring of sports training is a major part of training monitoring. It uses biochemical methods and techniques to measure some biochemical indicators in athletes during training, so that athletes can maximize their sports ability. But for a long time, people’s awareness of the importance of biochemical indicators monitoring of athletes is not enough, which is one of the main factors that restrict and affect the development of athletes themselves. In this paper, computational intelligence technology is used to research and analyze various indicators and strengths of athletes’ load intensity. It takes the changes of creatine kinase, heart rate and hemoglobin before and after quantitative load exercise as the entry point. And through this intelligent technology, the changes in the index data can be objectively and accurately reflected, so that it is hoped that the subsequent practical training can be guided more scientifically and the blindness of training can be reduced. The results showed that the activity of serum CK (creatine kinase) enzyme increased, and the heart rate also reached a peak immediately after training, which indicates that after the optimization of the training model, these biochemical indicators can make more scientific analysis of training volume, training intensity and recovery status. Among them, the maximum difference between the values of CK and BU (blood urea) is 10. At the same time, it can also provide some reference and reference for formulating more reasonable training methods and plans in the later stage and adjusting exercise load in time.

Physical properties of Korean normal aortic valves based on fluid–structure interactions

Jeongrim Choi, Jieun Park, Junghun Kim, Jongmin Lee

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 123 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.123

Abstract：

Recently, numerical methods such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD), have been widely used in heart valve research. The CFD approach has fewer restrictions compared to clinical and experimental methods as it involves interpretations through computer calculations, and it can be used to predict and analyze fluids. For valve numerical analysis using CFD, the mechanical properties of the valve must be defined based on the physical properties. However, most of the existing heart valve numerical analysis studies have been conducted for westerners, and only a few studies on the same topic have focused on Asians. Thus, in this paper, we aim to determine the physical property parameters suitable for defining the mechanical properties of the normal aortic valves of Koreans over time. In this study, we used a fluid−structure interaction technique for the valve simulation and applied three representative valve characteristics presented in previous aortic valve simulation studies. Herein, the valve patency rates in case of simulation and multidetector computed tomography images were compared and analyzed through statistical techniques. Our results revealed that the physical properties, such as density (1050 kg/m 3 ), Young’s modulus (2 MPa), and Poisson’s ratio (0.3), are like those of the Korean aortic valve over time. If hemodynamic evaluation of the Korean aortic valve is performed through simulation using these conditions, it can be effective in identifying the factors of heart valve disease.

Abstract：

Sports mechanics is a thorough analysis of sports motions that lowers the chance of injury and promotes athletic ability. Sport and exercise biomechanics are a scientific field that studies the mechanics of human movement. The purpose of this study is to explore biomechanics to analyze the various mechanical forces that affect the human body during sports and exercise using the biomechanical model. This study aims to identify the underlying causes of injuries such as ligament tears. According to statistics from injury surveillance, collegiate players are more likely to sustain injuries after suffering sports-related injuries (SRI). A total of 550 players participated in this study. The players are divided into two groups: group A, which focuses on sports-related injuries, and group B, which focuses on healthy players. The data was analyzed using SPSS software. The result showed a significant relation between groups. The findings demonstrated ligament tears on both the primary leg and secondary leg during the LCT compared to Group B. Players with sports-related injuries can be more susceptible to lower limb injuries due to reduced ligament tearing during land-and-cut exercises. This study advances the understanding of the mechanical forces behind sports-related injuries, hence improving athlete safety and performance.

Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.21, No.1, 21(1), 212 , 2024, DOI: 10.62617/mcb.v21i1.212

Abstract：

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a malignant tumor that threatens the whole world, previous studies found that Polyphyllin II (PPII) can suppress NSCLC cells growth, exhibits significant antitumor activity. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) can regulate the expression of other genes and play a crucial role in the prevention and development of cancer. However, the miRNA portrait of ginsenoside PPII-treated NSCLC A549 cells has not yet been studied. In this work, miRNA-seq analysis was used to determine the changes in miRNA expression profile of NSCLC A549 cells PPII-treaded. In addition, Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis were performed on differentially expressed miRNA target genes. Then, predicted the target genes of miRNA and performed functional enrichment analysis on them. We identified 58 up-regulated and 24 down-regulated miRNAs displaying changes their expression in PPII treated A549 cells were greater than 2-fold. In addition, the expression levels of miRNAs were validated by real-time PCR. Therefore, this work has a certain promoting effect on the study of the anti-cancer mechanism of PPII in lung cells.

Abstract：

Electric vehicle (EV) battery replacement poses significant mechanical strain on technicians, increasing the risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). This study uses Python-based simulations and biomechanical modeling to evaluate the mechanical load distribution during the battery replacement process, focusing on joint stress and technician posture. The analysis covers different task phases, including battery removal, transport, and installation, with statistical methods used to assess forces and torques applied to critical joints. The results indicate that the removal and installation phases exert the highest mechanical loads on the lower back and shoulders. The study suggests ergonomic interventions such as workstation redesign, lifting tools, and improved posture techniques to reduce the risk of injury and enhance the safety and efficiency of EV maintenance tasks.

Abstract：

In table tennis competitions, the movement data of table tennis players plays an important role in daily training. In recent years, artificial intelligence technology has been widely used in sports competitions. With the development of artificial intelligence, how to use artificial intelligence to analyze sports video to obtain sports data of athletes has become more and more important. This paper is to use artificial intelligence to research and analyze the athletes in the table tennis competition, and then obtain the sports data of the athletes. This has important guiding significance for athletes and coaches in their daily training. Table tennis is a widely developed sport in China, and as China’s “national ball”, table tennis has always been in a leading position in the world table tennis competitions. It is widely loved by the public for its simple and easy access to sports facilities, low site requirements and sports methods. In this study, mathematical statistics and experimental methods were used. Combined with the application of the functional sports screen function test, 20 table tennis players from Shandong Sport University were selected as the test objects, and their sports performance was tested. The total score of 10 first-level athletes was 162 points, and the average score was 16.2 points. The total score of the 10 second-level athletes was 144 points, and the average score was 14.4 points. The performance of the first-level athletes was significantly higher than that of the second-level athletes. It showed that the first-level athletes were generally better than the second-level athletes in all aspects.
