Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of different heel height on the electromyographic (EMG) activity in Rectus abdominis (RA) and Erector spinae (ES) during gait activity. Methods : A repeated measures design was used. 33 healthy females carried out a standardized gait activity under 3 conditions; with heel wedges of 1, 7, and 12cm in height. EMG activity was recorded from RA and ES during the activity. Data was analysed using the repeated one-way ANOVA. Results : First, as the shoe-heel height was getting higher, change of muscle activation indicated the statistically significant difference in rectus abdominis(p<0.05). Second, as the shoe-heel height was getting higher, change of muscle activation indicated the statistically significant difference in erector spinae(p<0.05). Conclusion : We found that as heel height increased, there was an increase in EMG activity in both RA and ES. This indicated that no RA : ES imbalance was elicited. This study provides information that will inform future research on how heel height affects muscle activity around the trunk.

Information service for the aged is a new challenge for public libraries in Korea. To develop an internet-based information service at public library perspectives, information sources, information need, and information seeking and using behavior are investigated. Interview survey is performed to 1060 adults aged 60 and over. Finding revealed that the respondents led to few channels to information except for mass media and informal oral communication. It ascertain ways in which 23% of the respondents currently use internet, and identify barriers of nonusers. The information need of the elderly are diverse, but health/medicine, news, hobbies, religion, leisure/travel are most identified need in descending order. Based on data analysis and previous research results, a cooperative service model consisting of information contents, online reference, interface design, and education is developed. Finally problems and suggestions for future improvement are discussed.

This study was to analyze the effect of dancesport heel-shoes heights on Rumba Cucarachas Movement in terms of analysis, and to provide the essential information to decide the proper heel-shoes heights for individual. six female subjects participated in this study. Dependent variables were set and divided into the amount of movement regarding the velocity and angle of the right elbow, pelvis, ankle, and knee. The following conclusion was drawn blow. 1) Angle: We all appeared in 5, 7, 9cm heel height so that we were similar in a knee and elbow angle and no significantly. The plantar flexion appeared greatly as an ankle angle's shoe high and significantly. 2) Velocity: An elbow velocity all appeared in a three shoes so that it was similar. We speed fast speed some in a 7cm heel height. A knee velocity expressed fast speed some in a 5cm heel height. The pelvis velocity in a that it was similar. Generaly, The aspect to be a dancesport competition o'clock and aesthetic is the height. and the muscular strength train after we need the thing to choose suitable to the individual shoe height. It is logical that the decision of heel-shoes heights should be made by anthropometric and sport dynamic analysis in order to maximize the dynamic and aesthetic aspect of dance sport.

Over time, advanced technology became more complicated and the requirement of work have been more harder. So there is a need for systematic management system. Modern process has most of the management system. However, in a typical process, there is still no management system. We are only managed in the process according to the memoirs and oral by -step cycle also experience. As a result, the business is stagnant, efficiency in terms of quality will be even lower. Thus, in this paper, not only the modern process, even in a general process, it is desired to develop a process management system that can provide a more efficient working environment.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the changes in the electromyographic (EMG) activity of the trunk and the lower limb muscles during quiet standing on an unstable surface while wearing low-heeled shoes (3 cm), high-heeled shoes (7 cm) and without footwear (0 cm) in 20 young healthy women. The subjects stood on an unstable surface for 30 seconds. We examined the differences in the EMG data of the erector spinae, rectus abdominis, biceps femoris, rectus femoris, tibialis anterior, and the gastrocnemius medialis muscle. A one-way repeated analysis of variance was used to compare the effects of shoe heel height on the EMG activity with the level of significance set at ${\alpha}=.05$. The EMG activity of the erector spinae and the rectus femoris were significantly increased (p<.05) in the subjects who wore elevated heel height, while the tibialis anterior and the gastrocnemius medialis were significantly decreased (p<.05). However, the rectus abdominis and the biceps femoris exhibited no significant difference among the three conditions. The above results indicate that wearing high-heeled shoes may change the postural strategy. The findings of this study suggest that excessive heel height could contribute to an increased fall risk during quiet standing.

Injured peoples usually care their body at medical institutions. But if they need some more rehabilitation to the affected area thus exist. These medical institutions according to the scale there are significant differences in rehabilitation programs, most of the small-scale rehabilitation program for medical doctors and patients to be progression of the conversation is an issue. In this paper, in a small medical facility rehabilitation to assist in the accuracy and reliability, physical contact and force sensors that can measure a combination of substitution and the tactile sensor and tactile sensor alternative with a similar function is proposed. Perceptron neural networks by applying the contact evaluation according to the algorithm to determine the pattern is applied.

This study examined the expression of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) in red seabream Pagrus major infected by the, acanthocephalan parasites Longicollum pagrosomi. We cloned the full-length Hsp70 cDNA from the liver of the red seabream. The full-length cDNA had a 1,950 bp open reading frame (ORF) that encoded a protein of 650 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of Hsp70 contained all of the conserved Hsp70 family signature sequences and an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)/guanosine triphosphate (GTP) binding motif, including the EEVD (consensus sequence that terminates in Hsp70 family) consensus sequence. The expression of Hsp70 mRNA was upregulated int the fish head-kidney and liver, as determined by quantitative real-time PCR. We quantified the Hsp70 mRNA expression in normal red seabream and fish infected fish by L. pagrosomi. The expression of Hsp70 mRNA was significantly higher in the infected red seabream. These results suggest that Hsp70 play a role of protection against stress and inflammation caused by the parasite and may help maintain homeostasis.
