Effects of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy and Hand Massage on Body Composition and Serum Lipids According to Serum Cholesterol Level in Korean Women

Obesity, particularly abdominal obesity, increases the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study investigates the effects of six-week (twice a week, 12 sessions total) extracorporeal shockwave therapy (SWT) and hand massage therapy (HT) on body composition and serum lipids in overweight and obese Korean women aged between 35 and 59, according to their serum cholesterol level (≥200 mg/dL versus <200 mg/dL). After the program, weights decreased significantly in both the HT Group and SWT Group (p < 0.05);weights of those with cholesterol < 200 mg/dL significantly decreased in the HT Group (p = 0.038), while weights of those with cholesterol ≥ 200 mg/dL significantly decreased in the SWT Group (p = 0.001). BMIs decreased significantly in both the HT Group and the SWT Group (p < 0.05);BMIs of those with cholesterol < 200 mg/dL significantly decreased in the HT Group (p = 0.018), while BMIs of those with cholesterol ≥ 200 mg/dL significantly decreased in the SWT Group (p = 0.001). The body fat percentage of subjects significantly decreased only in the SWT Group (p = 0.027);the waist-hip ratio significantly decreased only in HT Group (p = 0.034). Serum cholesterol levels significantly decreased in those with cholesterol < 200 mg/dL in the HT Group (p < 0.05) and those with cholesterol ≥ 200 mg/dL in SWT Group (p = 0.055). Triglyceride significantly decreased in both those with cholesterol < 200 mg/dL and those with cholesterol ≥ 200 mg/dL, but did not significantly decrease in either subgroup of the HT Group. The study results suggest that SWT is effective in improving body measurements and serum lipids in those with cholesterol ≥ 200 mg/dL, while HT therapy is effective in those with cholesterol < 200 mg/dL. In conclusion, SWT and HT improved abdominal obesity by reducing body weight and waist circumference and helped improving serum lip index, suggesting the benefit for managing body measurements and serum lipids of overweight and obese individuals.

Analysis on pivot turning of quadruped robot with bionic flexible body driven by the PAMs

The pivot turning function of quadruped bionic robots can improve their mobility in unstructured environment.A kind of bionic flexible body mechanism for quadruped robot was proposed in this paper,which is composed of one bionic spine and four pneumatic artificial muscles(PAMs).The coordinated movement of the bionic flexible body and the leg mechanism can achieve pivot turning gait.First,the pivot turning gait planning of quadruped robot was analyzed,and the coordinated movement sequence chart of pivot turning was presented.Then the kinematics modeling of leg side swing and body bending for pivot turning was derived,which should meet the condition of the coordinated movement between bionic flexible body and leg mechanism.The PAM experiment was conducted to analyze its contraction characteristic.The study on pivot turning of the quadruped robot will lay a theoretical foundation for the further research on dynamic walking stability of the quadruped robot in unstructured environment.

Apocalypse and Body Transgression： On Picasso’s Crucifixion （1930）

The article deals with the question of the possibility of a new interpretation of Picasso’s picture entitled Crucifixion, which was created in the context of the art paradigm shift in the 1930s when the master focused his attention to the return to painting as a reference framework of myth and religion. But this return was only a turning point towards a modern understanding of the world and art from other sources. It should be noted that the problem of pictorial turn nowadays has a strong impact on the postmodern theology, which encompasses various cultural traditions, and also quite opposite philosophical attitudes. The article shows, thus, the inner relationship and connection between painting art and the search for transgression in the language that was the idea of Bataille. In the first part of this article, author tries to show the consequences of Bataille’s thinking of transgression; the second part has attempted to articulate the problems of interpretation of Picasso’s canvas Crucifixion; and concluding remarks is an attempt to review the emphasis on relationship with pictorial turn and transformations in the notion of contemporary art concerning the body as a sovereign event of the freedom and sacrifice.

Investigation into the Effects of SORxSOAP in the Job-Related Performance of Deli Meat Slicers over a One-Month Period

Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization is well researched and widely accepted to improve circulation, decrease pain, improve function, increase strength, and promote overall soft tissue health. However, the administration of this intervention, in most cases, is limited to the brief amounts of time we spend mobilizing our soft tissue. SORxSOAP offers a pragmatic strategy by which one may mobilize their soft tissue while simultaneously showering or washing a specific part of their body. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the effects SORxSOAP has on functional measures of upper extremity activity in the slicing hands of employees at a corporate deli franchise over the course of a one-month period. 31 employees of a corporate deli franchise were asked to participate in a study involving the use of SORxSOAP. The subjects were assigned to experimental and control groups rough random sampling. Twenty-one subjects in the experimental group were given a one month’s supply of SORxSOAP to use on a regular basis while showering. Ten subjects in the control group were not exposed to any independent variable. The subjects from both groups completed a questionnaire that asked the subjects to rate the level of ease at which specific job-related activities were for them to perform. Hand-strength/grip and range of motion measurements were also taken utilizing a handheld dynamometer and goniometer respectively by one evaluator both before and after a one-month duration of the experimental group’s exposure to SORxSOAP. Independent t-tests were performed to test the difference between pre and post-test values for the control and experimental groups. It was found that SORxSOAP significantly improves wrist flexion range of motion, results in significantly greater improvements in hand-grip strength compared to control, and significantly improves wrist extension range of motion over a one-month period. Improvements in the ease of job-related activities also appear to be correlated to the use of SORxSOAP for items #1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 9. Significant differences were also found between the slicing and non-slicing hands for pre-test wrist extension range of motion measurements, indicating the presence of possible over-use injury in occupations and activities placing excessive demand on certain body regions. This provides isolated evidence that supports the notion that SORxSOAP could be a viable option for preventing the steady decline of wrist extension range of motion and actually promoting and maintaining soft tissue and overall joint health, making it clear how further investigation into the effects of SORxSOAP can not only improve joint and soft tissue health, but prevent the emergence of joint and soft tissue impairment entirely. Clinical Bottom Line: The use of SORxSOAP has the potential to significantly improve muscle and soft tissue performance and function over a period of one month.

身体转向与表演理论

表演理论的兴起受益于批评理论的身体转向,实现了批评理论危机之后文学、文化批评理论施行于社会现实的抱负,同时也有注重身份建构、着眼从社会文化意识层面批判和转变社会现实的物质关怀之意。这其中对语言的社会政治功能的关注及其诉诸在肉身层面的操演成为表演理论最大的生成机制。

从离身到具身:高校劳动教育的具身化转向

劳动创造了人和人类社会,是人类最基本的实践活动。劳动教育作为中国特色社会主义教育制度的重要内容,具有树德、增智、强体、育美的综合育人价值。但受重智轻劳、“唯分数论”等传统思想的影响,劳动教育逐渐被弱化、软化、淡化,劳动教育实践也将身体排除在外,陷入“离身化”困境。以“身体在场”为核心的具身认知理论强调身体对认知生成发挥着不可替代的作用,倡导身心一体,为劳动教育的发展奠定了坚实的理论基础。为此,高校要倡导身心统一的教育理念,从活动过程、外部环境以及评价体系等方面推动劳动教育实现具身化转向。

“身体”转向:论竞技体育之“体”的遮蔽与去蔽

本研究基于“身体”的角度,对竞技体育发展问题进行反思与展望。运用文献资料法和逻辑分析法,基于身体哲学的视域,对竞技体育之“体”的基本属性进行阐释。分析了西方哲学中身体的隐匿与失落,阐述了竞技体育中“身体”的遮蔽及其异化。研究认为,竞技体育的兴衰,与西方传统哲学之于身体的隐匿与遮蔽密切相关。基于此,现代竞技体育发展应遵循一种“身体”转向的逻辑理路,规避竞技体育中作为主体的“身体”失落。同时,以重塑尊身取向为基础,以彰显身体形象为本义,从而重拾一种健康发展的取向与路径。

当代文艺思潮的“后人文主义”转向——从“人性”到“物性”的流变研究

当代中国文艺理论肇始于对“人学”问题的思考,伴随着这一问题而出现的“人性”“新启蒙”等概念,标志着人文主义理论思潮的形成。但在20世纪90年代中后期,随着一些源自西方的诸如身体、事件论、思辨实在论以及物性论等新概念的翻译和引介,当代中国文艺思潮中的人文主义逐渐为后人文主义所取代。如果从文艺理论演绎的内在逻辑来看,从人文主义到后人文主义的转变,也可视为从人与物主客二元对立的建构论(语言论),转向人与物交融互通的物性论(反语言论),并为当代中国文艺理论的新变提供契机与可能性。

论毕飞宇《推拿》中的身体叙事

身体叙事在毕飞宇的《推拿》中十分显著,主要通过盲人推拿师不同欲望身体的书写与刻画进行呈现。他用人物身体符号化的描写来解读“人物的内部”,诠释文本中存在的欲望身体,展示其身体认同的渴望和身体压抑的异化。以人物为中心的文本结构,交代出推拿师们的相同与不同,同样渴望认同,让他们时刻维护着日常的尊严;而不同个体也存在不同的诉求,使其产生不同的行为举止、心理节奏与身体表现等。厘清《推拿》中的身体叙事,有助于人们真正走入“人物的内部”,理解社会边缘的盲人群体。

儒学的身体转向及其文明史意义--重思晚明儒学中的泰州学派

以儒学身体观为线索,从文明史和儒学史的交互视野,可以看到儒学在晚明时代发生了一次“身体转向”,即从以心为本转到以身为本,这种转向不只是内容上的修补,更是结构上的变革。由此可见以王心斋为核心的泰州学派在儒学史上的独特意义,及其在现代性叙事中的文明史意义。从“心本”到“身本”的结构转换,与西方文化中从意识到身体的转换有类似之处,但二者也有差别。从以身为本的一体感应论逻辑中,可以发现关于现代性的另一种叙事,即关于人类社会现代化进程的儒学方案。

人工智能语境中的身体美学及其话语生产

关于身体与技术关系的探讨已由来已久,而在审美维度上进行追问可发现两者关系在演化的进程中紧密关联。随着人工智能技术的普及应用,可显著发现其开拓了身体实践的新范式,并引发感知、经验、意识等身体美学意蕴的变化,深刻重构当下的身体话语。一方面,智能技术推动身体实践,提高了生产效率,赋予身体新表征;另一方面,技术理性对身体的渗透已难以忽视,正潜移默化侵蚀身体主体性,影响身体审美感知。在双向度的境遇里,身体话语的转向带来了意义解构,这不仅唤起学界对当下身体话语转变的重视,也为当下身体美学理论拓展提供了另一种思考视角。

梁漱溟与笛卡尔的“身、心”二元论对比分析研究——兼论东西方文化交流互鉴中的中国境域

梁漱溟早期文化“三路向”说中的“身、心”二元论虽取材于笛卡尔,却不拘囿于本体论和认识论的视域,其以笛卡尔的二元论为参照,虽在理论构型的立场、目标、元点上实现了对西方传统理性主义的反转,突破了传统“天人合一”的旧有范式,构建了以传统儒家人伦为基础的价值本体论,推动了近代中华传统文化的生存转向和现代性转型。但是,梁漱溟以“心”为本所创生的“善恶”的形而上学依据,在结构主义的对比分析视角下存在严重的价值论困境和模糊的现实指向。文章旨在批判性考察梁漱溟“身、心”二元论困境,揭示出遮蔽在困境背后有益的东西方文化交流通路,以兹为当代坚守中国文化、返本开新提供侧面参考意蕴。
