There is a belief that walking just after a meal causes fatigue, stomach ache, and other types of discomfort. However, the author and one volunteer participant had no such negative reactions, and found that walking just after a meal was more effective for weight loss than waiting one hour after eating before walking. For people who do not experience abdominal pain, fatigue, or other discomfort when walking just after a meal, walking at a brisk speed for 30 minutes as soon as possible just after lunch and dinner leads to more weight loss than does walking for 30 minutes beginning one hour after a meal has been consumed. The author lost nearly 3 kg and a volunteer participant lost nearly 1.5 kg during one month of walking just after lunch and dinner. The author walked at a brisk pace, while the volunteer walked at a stroll. We repeated the preliminary experiment twice, between April and early May 2002, and once between August and September 2006, and obtained the same results.

We describe the first verified domestic HEV case in a previously healthy 53-year-old man who presented a three-day history of upper stomach pain, nausea, fever, arthralgia and fatigue. At the first phase laboratory tests revealed high levels of AST and ALT and at the second phase high levels of bilirubin. Serum was positive for anti-HEV IgM and for HEV RNA confirming the diagnosis of acute hepatitis E. The HEV was genotype 3. Jaundice resolved in three months. In nonendemic areas autochthonous hepatitis E is more common than previously recognized and is possible in patients with acute hepatitis.

This study compared residual depressive and somatic symptoms and functional impairment between remitted and partially remitted patients with major depressive disorder (MDD), and explored the associations of functioning with demographic and clinical characteristics including residual depressive symptoms. Altogether, 1503 outpatients with MDD formed the study sample. Residual symptoms and psychosocial functioning were measured using standardized instruments. Approximately half (51.2%) of the patients who responded to antidepressant treatment achieved remission ('remitters'), while the rest who responded to treatment achieved only partial remission ('non-remitters'). Residual mood symptoms in remitters included sleep disturbances (66.6%), fatigue (32.3%), decreased concentration (31.3%), appetite/weight disturbances (28.8%), psychomotor changes (23.2%), sad mood (21.9%) and loss of interest (21.1%) measured by the Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology-Self-Report. Residual somatic symptoms included headache (31.9%), intestinal complaints (31.3%), heart pounding/racing (26.3%), gastric complaints (22.3%), dizziness (22.2%) and stomach pain (20.6%) measured by the Patient Health Questionnaire-15. Such residual symptoms were even more frequent in the 'non-remitters' group. Residual symptoms of fatigue, psychomotor changes, sleep disturbance and appetite/weight disturbance contributed to impairment of all functional domains. Given the negative impact of residual symptoms on psychosocial functioning, more attention needs to be paid to the assessment and treatment of residual depressive symptoms.

The Aspongopus chinensis is an insect of the genus Hemiptera, which can be used both as a medicinal and as a gourmet in the folk. It has a long history as a drug, which has the effect of regulating Qi and relieving pain, and warming the Yang. It is mainly used to treat stomach cold and pain, liver and stomach pain, kidney deficiency and impotence, and waist and knee pain. Modern pharmacological studies have shown that A. chinensis has a variety of pharmacological activities. For example, it can be used to fight tumors, improve reproductive damage, and antibacterial, anti-oxidation, anti-coagulation, anti-ulcer, anti-fatigue and so on. The chemical constituents of A. chinensis currently reported mainly include odorous components, vitamins, fatty acids and proteins, amino acids, and other nutrients, as well as nucleosides and dopamines. This study summarizes and analyzes the related research literatures of A. chinensis in China and abroad, and provides a reference for its further development and research from the aspects of chemical composition, pharmacological action and clinical application.
