Effects of Makeup Application on Diverting the Gaze of Others from Areas of Inflammatory Lesions in Patients with Acne Vulgaris

Skin manifestations can be major sources of stress for patients with skin diseases;hence, the effective use of makeup and cosmetic products for these patients has been established. The objective of this study was to determine if makeup can divert observers’ gaze from areas of inflammatory acne lesions. Both base and point makeup were applied to two Japanese female patients with mild to moderate acne vulgaris to hide skin manifestations, as well as to accentuate the eyes and lips. Photographs of their faces were shown, at various stages of makeup application, to 22 observers (11 men and 11 women). The effects of makeup application, and other eye-diverting strategies (e.g., clothing, accessories, and hairstyle), used to draw observers’ gaze away from acne lesions, were evaluated by analyzing observers’ eye movements. As base makeup application proceeded, time to first fixation, total fixation duration, and fixation count changed. Compared to “no makeup”, the time to first fixation, total fixation duration, and fixation count also decreased significantly after point makeup application. The additional eye-diverting strategies used also had significant gaze-diverting effects. Therefore, makeup can be useful for patients with acne to divert others’ gaze from lesions. Therefore, it should be actively integrated into acne management.

Patient Reported Frequency of Lupus Flare: Associations with Foundation Makeup and Sunscreen Use

Objective: To test the hypothesis that usage of foundation makeup (FM) and sunscreen lotion (SS), used individually or in combination, is associated with significant changes in the likelihood of lupus symptom exacerbation. Methods: Self-reported flare days (SRF) and use of FM and SS products, were retrospectively examined in 80 Caucasian Australian women with ACR classified SLE for a year. Negative binomial regression modelled SRF days (outcome) against independent FMSS variable and covariates: age;diagnosis years;outdoor hours;BMI;stress;immune therapy medication (ITM) use. Results: Statistically significant inverse associations between SRF days and FMSS use were found. Protective effects were statistically significant (p < 0.05) for combined FMSS exposure days (OR 0.998, CI 0.997 - 1.0) and FM alone (OR 0.603, CI 0.363 - 1.0). Significant associations consistent with increased SRF risk were seen in sub-analysis models for participants taking ITM: univariate model (OR 1.968, p = 0.03);multivariate model for FMSS (OR 2.11, CI 1.161 - 3.835);FM days (OR 1.855, CI 1.023 - 3.364). Results show SRF day reduction of 0.15% for each day of product exposure. Conclusion: Study results highlight protective effects of wearing FM with or without SS. This reduction in flare days ultimately has potential to improve quality of life in SLE patients.

Makeup Activates Brain Activity in Visually Impaired Persons: Evaluation by Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Cosmetics are used to improve physical appearance, but the benefits may be limited to people without visual impairment. The importance of attractiveness among blind persons has not been assessed. We investigated the influence of makeup on brain activity of blind persons using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Participants were 7 blind females (BFs) who learned to fully apply makeup and 9 mostly age-matched normally sighted females (NSFs). Brain activity was measured using fMRI before and after application of makeup and during a makeup image task in each state. In the default mode network at rest, there was no difference between the BFs and NSFs. However, a lateral visual network to the opposite side was observed in the NSFs, whereas no such network was noted in the BFs. A weak network was noted in the BFs in the occipital fusiform gyrus and temporal occipital fusiform cortex, and an extensive visual area network defect was noted. Also, activity after makeup application was significantly higher in the nucleus accumbens, pallidum, and hippocampus. Activity in the right middle cingulate gyrus, right cerebral white matter, and right anterior cingulate gyrus was higher before makeup in both BFs and NSFs, and the activity was significantly higher and more extensive in the BFs. In conclusion, applying makeup is a personally rewarding activity, even for BFs, as it strongly activates the reward system and the reward/memory system network, even in the absence of a visual area network.

A Simulated Annealing Approach tothe Train Routing and Makeup

This paper presents the formulation and solution of a train routing and makeupmodel.This formulation results in a large scale 0-1 integer programmingproblem with nonlinear objective function, and linear and nonlinearcoastraints. We know this problem is NP-complete;hence,it is diffieult to solvefor a globelly optimal solution. In this paper we propose a simulated annealingalgorithm for the train routing and makeup problem. This method avoidsentrapment in the local minima of the objective function. The effectiveness ofthis approach has been demonstrasted by results from test casee,

Efficacy Evaluation of a Compound Plant Extract Used in Makeup Base

Cytological test and human skin test were used to study the antioxidant,anti-aging and moisturizing effects of a compound plant extract,and to evaluate its safety.The cytological test results showed that the compound extract could significantly scavenge the reactive oxygen species(ROS)generated by H2O2 stimulation and protect cells from oxidative damage.It can significantly inhibit the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-1(MMP-1).The results of human skin test showed that the moisture content of cheek stratum corneum,R2 value and Q1 value of skin elasticity were significantly improved after 28 days of continuous use of the Makeup Base product added with the compound plant extract.The Ra value,Rz value and Rt value of skin texture around eyes have been significantly improved,which shows that the product has the effects of improving the moisture content of stratum corneum,improving skin elasticity and diminishing the fine lines around the eyes;the product has good safety.

SDTK1井钻铤接头二次上扣特性分析与井下等效冲击扭矩预测

基于8"(203.2mm)钻铤接头三维弹塑性有限元模型,分析复杂载荷条件下NC56钻铤接头内、外螺纹的受力特征和井下二次上扣特性,通过有限元分析,根据接头内、外螺纹台肩处相对偏移量计算井下等效冲击扭矩,形成井下等效冲击扭矩的预测模型,利用塔里木盆地GT1井井下实测结果验证该模型正确性,并应用于中国第1口超万米特深井——深地塔科1井(SDTK1井)。结果表明:复杂载荷作用下钻铤接头应力分布不均匀,台肩处和靠近台肩的螺纹牙处vonMises应力水平相对较高;对于按API(美国石油学会)标准上扣的203.2mm钻铤接头,当井下等效冲击扭矩超过65 kN·m时,钻铤接头的上扣预紧平衡被打破,钻铤接头发生二次上扣;随井下等效冲击扭矩的增大,内、外螺纹台肩处相对偏移量增加。SDTK1井井下存在较大冲击扭矩,井下载荷环境复杂,需要采用双台肩钻铤接头以提高接头的抗冲击扭矩能力或优化作业参数来降低井下冲击扭矩,从而有效防止钻具失效。

中国女性反化妆性别经验的质性考察——以“返璞归真|AwakendPhoenixes”豆瓣小组为例

一批中国青年女性正经历从化妆转变为不化妆。研究发现,反化妆对青年女性来说是一种认知重构后的性别实践,同时,放弃化妆被她们视为抵抗父权制的微观政治诉求。在这个过程中,她们采取组合化和策略化的方式使用媒介。中国青年女性的反化妆实践,一方面体现了对消费主义的一定抵制,展现了对性别平等的追求;另一方面体现了她们对美的认知较为切面化和功能化。媒介在女性反化妆实践中起到了基础设施的作用,然而又在一定程度上遏制了该实践在“再做性别”方面的潜力。

特深井井下等效冲击扭矩作用下钻铤接头三维力学特征分析

特深井钻井时钻柱在井下受到强烈的冲击扭矩作用,严重威胁着钻井施工安全,需要进行特深井钻柱井下冲击扭矩的测量和分析。首先,采用三维力学分析方法得到了不同扭矩作用下钻铤螺纹接头的受力特征,建立了内、外螺纹之间相对偏移量与井下等效冲击扭矩之间的对应关系;然后,以西部油田某特深井上部井段ϕ203.2 mm钻铤NC56接头为例,利用刻痕法测量内、外螺纹台肩的相对偏移量,反演得到与偏移量相对应的井下等效冲击扭矩,并用实际测得的钻铤接头卸扣扭矩进行了验证。实测数据表明,钻井过程中井下存在很大的冲击扭矩,使钻铤接头在井下发生二次上扣。根据实测偏移量反演计算的井下等效冲击扭矩与卸扣扭矩吻合程度高,表明该方法具有较好的可靠性。分析表明,上扣预紧状态对钻铤接头的井下二次上扣特性有很大影响,避免欠扭矩上扣是防止钻铤接头井下二次上扣的有效手段。

The New View of Makeup and the Consumption of Cosmetics among the Women of Shanghai in the Modern Age

Under the pressure of the national crisis in modem China,millennia-old traditional concepts have been broken and adjusted,and new trends and ideas have emerged in large numbers.In order to defeat local cosmetics,from the moment they entered China foreign cosmetics companies attacked the traditional Chinese cosmetics of eyebrow pigment(dai),lip pigment(gong),rouge(zhi),and face powder(fen).Corresponding to the enlightenment ideas of the early twentieth century,women could no longer pursue beauty in a way that harmed their bodies.In the movement to liberate women's bodies in the 1920s,radical intellectuals developed a severe criticism of the bad habits of using corsets and applying powder,and the concept of"healthy beauty"came into being.However,in the context of the development of the women's liberation movement and the respect for women's consumer rights,the healthy beauty theory failed to suppress women's consumption of beauty products,and"natural beauty"and"artificial beauty"ultimately coexisted in lifestyles of women in the modem era of Shanghai.

一种新型三水箱太阳能热水系统及控制策略

在传统集中式双水箱太阳能热水系统的基础上,提出一种引入补水加热水箱的新型三水箱太阳能热水系统,并进一步开发了相应控制策略,以在太阳辐射量较低和较高情况下均可充分利用该水箱蓄存太阳能并对补水进行加热,从而实现系统太阳能保证率的提升和辅助热源运行时间的减少.为探究所提系统的运行性能,建立了TRNSYS仿真模型并通过实验对其进行了验证.在该模型的基础上,对该系统运行性能及相应影响因素进行了分析.研究结果表明,与传统系统相比,所提系统全年太阳能保证率的相对提升率为22.42%;单纯增大补水加热水箱体积并不会使得系统全年太阳能保证率不断提升,因此实际应用中应综合考虑系统全年太阳能保证率与初投资以合理选择补水加热水箱体积;在不同用水行为模式下所提系统与传统系统相比均可更为充分地利用太阳能.此外,针对长沙地区某居住建筑的经济性分析显示,与传统系统相比,采用所提系统后年运行费用降低了18.31%,相应投资回收期为0.66年.
