    As a theoretical foundation and source of Chinese Medicine, HDNJĀ·SW (Huang Di Nei JingĀ· Su Wen) which studies the human physiology, pathology, and diagnosis and prevention of diseases covers the fields of ā€œYin Yangā€ and ā€œWuxingā€ philosophy, astrophysics, human physiology, geography, literature and so on. Present studies on the translation of HDNJĀ·SW are usually recognized as an unsystematic work because most researchers are confined to study the scattered terminology. With the guidance of deconstruction translation theory, this thesis studies the translation methods of HDNJĀ·SW from perspectives of language, figures of speech and medicine by taking the text and terminology. This paper analyzes the characteristics of the text of HDNJĀ·SW and related problems in translation, three principles are summarized: information conveyance, culture conveyance and form conveyance. The research reveals that with the great differences on materials, languages, cultures and forms between Chinese and English, in order to achieve the three translation principles, different translation methods should be adopted in different situations for the purpose of conveying the values of medicine, culture and rhetoric.Key words: TCM; HDNJĀ·SW; Information conveyance; Culture conveyance; Form conveyanc

    Analyzing the Effectiveness of Kinesio-taping in Golf-induced Chronic Low Back Pain Management

    The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of Kinesio-Taping (KT) in golf-induced chronic low-back pain management. The golfing population continues to grow each year, and the risks of golf-induced chronic low back pain (CLBP) remain high. The Kinesio-taping technique is a non-invasive treatment intervention utilized in sports injury rehabilitation and prevention. Due to the lack of research on KT in golf-related injuries, this study addresses the injury mechanism of golf-induced CLBP and the proposed physiological mechanism and therapeutic effects on the musculoskeletal system of KT. This study is a comprehensive review of the golf swing, prevalence and risk factors of golf induced CLBP, treatment modalities for non-specific low back pain, and the use of KT in sports medicine and healthcare settings. The target population of this study includes active adults and older adults who are at risk or currently experiencing CLBP and those who may golf professionally or recreationally. The literature search (February- October 2022) was performed using multiple databases, including UCF Libraries, PubMed, GoogleScholar, SagePub, ScienceDirect, and Ebscohost. Keywords employed by this research include low back* golf* or golf swing* Kinesio-tape* or Kinesio-taping* and pain* or injury* . Search results were carefully screened, and relevant literature was selected for this study. A total of 78 scientific studies were included in this review. This literature review found insufficient empirical evidence to support the application of KT in golf-induced low back pain management. Although the subjects\u27 contextual effects should not be overlooked, the reasoning behind how KT physiologically affects target injury sites remains unclear. Further research is suggested to examine the effectiveness of KT in treating golf induced CLBP

    Microscopic properties of crystal aluminum thin film have been investigated using the quasi-continuum method in order to study the influence of surface defects in nanoindentation. Various distances between the surface pit defect and indenter and various sizes of the pit have been calculated. In this simulation, as the distance between the pit and indenter increases, the nanohardness increases in a wave that goes up in a period of three atoms, and it is found closely related to the crystal structure of periodic atom arrangement on {1Ā 1Ā 1} atomic close-packed planes of FCC metal; there is almost no influence on the nanohardness when the adjacent distance between the pit and indenter is more than 16 atomic spacing. We have modified the theoretical equation of the necessary load for elastic-to-plastic transition of Al film with the initial surface defect size. Furthermore, when the size coefficient of width (of height) equals about one unit (half unit), the yield load experiences an obvious drop. When it reaches about two units (one unit), the yield load is nearly close to that of the nanoindentation on a stepped surface. Additionally, compared to the width, the height of surface pit defect displays a greater influence on the yield load of thin film

    Leading Power Accuracy in Lattice Calculations of Parton Distributions

    Full text link
    In lattice-QCD calculations of parton distribution functions (PDFs) via large-momentum effective theory, the leading power (twist-three) correction appears as O(Ī›QCD/Pz){\cal O}(\Lambda_{\rm QCD}/P^z) due to the linear-divergent self-energy of Wilson line in quasi-PDF operators. For lattice data with hadron momentum PzP^z of a few GeV, this correction is dominant in matching, as large as 30\% or more. We show how to eliminate this uncertainty through choosing the mass renormalization parameter consistently with the resummation scheme of the infrared-renormalon series in perturbative matching coefficients. An example on the lattice pion PDF data at Pz=1.9P^z = 1.9 GeV shows an improvement of matching accuracy by a factor of more than 3āˆ¼53\sim 5 in the expansion region x=0.2āˆ¼0.5x= 0.2\sim 0.5.Comment: Updated to version published on PL
