Lymphedema refers to swelling that generally occurs in one of your arms or legs. Sometimes both arms or both legs swell.

Lymphedema is most commonly caused by the removal of or damage to your lymph nodes as a part of cancer treatment. It results from a blockage in your lymphatic system, which is part of your immune system. The blockage prevents lymph fluid from draining well, and the fluid buildup leads to swelling.

While there is presently no cure for lymphedema, it can be managed with early diagnosis and diligent care of your affected limb.

Lymphedema signs and symptoms, which occur in your affected arm or leg, include:

· Swelling of part or all of your arm or leg, including fingers or toes

· A feeling of heaviness or tightness

· Restricted range of motion

· Aching or discomfort

· Recurring infections

· Hardening and thickening of the skin (fibrosis)

The swelling caused by lymphedema ranges from mild, hardly noticeable changes in the size of your arm or leg to extreme changes that make the limb hard to use. Lymphedema caused by cancer treatment may not occur until months or years after treatment.

Causes

Your lymphatic system is crucial to keeping your body healthy. It circulates protein-rich lymph fluid throughout your body, collecting bacteria, viruses and waste products. Your lymphatic system carries this fluid and harmful substances through your lymph vessels, which lead to lymph nodes. The wastes are then filtered out by lymphocytes — infection-fighting cells that live in your lymph nodes — and ultimately flushed from your body.

Lymphedema occurs when your lymph vessels are unable to adequately drain lymph fluid, usually from an arm or leg. Lymphedema can be either primary or secondary. This means it can occur on its own (primary lymphedema), or it can be caused by another disease or condition (secondary lymphedema). Secondary lymphedema is far more common than primary lymphedema.

Causes of secondary lymphedema

Any condition or procedure that damages your lymph nodes or lymph vessels can cause lymphedema. Causes include:

· Surgery. Removal of or injury to lymph nodes and lymph vessels may result in lymphedema. For example, lymph nodes may be removed to check for spread of breast cancer, and lymph nodes may be injured in surgery that involves blood vessels in your limbs.

· Radiation treatment for cancer. Radiation can cause scarring and inflammation of your lymph nodes or lymph vessels.

· Cancer. If cancer cells block lymphatic vessels, lymphedema may result. For instance, a tumor growing near a lymph node or lymph vessel could enlarge enough to block the flow of the lymph fluid.

· Infection. An infection of the lymph nodes or parasites can restrict the flow of lymph fluid. Infection-related lymphedema is most common in tropical and subtropical regions and is more likely to occur in developing countries.

Causes of primary lymphedema

Primary lymphedema is a rare, inherited condition caused by problems with the development of lymph vessels in your body. Specific causes of primary lymphedema include:

· Milroy's disease (congenital lymphedema). This disorder begins in infancy and causes lymph nodes to form abnormally.

· Meige's disease (lymphedema praecox). This disorder often causes lymphedema around puberty or during pregnancy, though it can occur later, until age 35.

· Late-onset lymphedema (lymphedema tarda). This occurs rarely and usually begins after age 35.

In the medical field, heat and cold therapy, as an ancient and effective means of treatment, is widely used in the treatment of various diseases and injuries. It uses temperature changes to affect the body’s blood circulation, nerve conduction and tissue metabolism to achieve pain relief, reduce inflammation, promote healing and other purposes. This paper will introduce the purpose of cold and heat therapy in detail, and briefly introduce a modern treatment equipment-cold and heat compression therapy machine.





The purpose of cold therapy

Reduce local congestion or bleeding: Cold therapy through a substance below the temperature of the human body, directly acting on the skin tissue, so that the epidermal blood vessels contraction, avoid capillary dilation and rupture, thereby improving vascular congestion and bleeding and other symptoms. This is especially effective for acute soft tissue injuries, nose bleeding and other conditions.

Reduce pain: Cold therapy can reduce the skin temperature, slow down the nerve conduction speed, reduce the transmission of painful nerve impulses, and thus reduce the sense of pain to a certain extent. It is often used for toothache, burn and other pain treatment.

Control the spread of inflammation: Cold therapy can slow blood flow, reduce cell metabolism and microbial activity, and help control the spread of inflammation. This is an important treatment for patients in the early stages of inflammation.

Hypothermia: Cold therapy lowers body temperature through direct contact with the skin, using physical effects such as conduction and evaporation. It is often used in the treatment of patients with high fever, heat stroke, etc., and can also be used for local or systemic cooling of patients with brain trauma and brain hypoxia to reduce brain cell metabolism and oxygen demand.



The purpose of heat therapy

Promote the dissipation of inflammation: Heat therapy acts on the skin tissue through heat higher than the skin surface temperature, so that the inflammatory exudate is quickly absorbed and dissipated, which is conducive to dissolving the necrotic tissue and promoting tissue repair.

Reduce pain: heat therapy can accelerate the absorption of pathogenic tissues and inflammatory exudates, relieve the stimulation and pressure of nerve endings, reduce the excitability of pain nerves, thereby reducing the sense of pain. It has a better relief effect on the pain caused by mild to moderate muscle soreness and arthritis.

Reduce deep tissue congestion: Heat therapy can speed up blood circulation, reduce blood viscosity, and cause blood vessels to dilate, thereby reducing the symptoms of deep tissue congestion.

Warm and comfortable: Heat therapy by heat action on the skin tissue, so that blood vessels in a state of dilation and accelerated blood circulation, increase blood volume, increase skin temperature, improve skin discomfort and cold feeling.



Introduction to hot and cold compression therapy machines

The hot and cold compression therapy machine is a modern medical equipment that combines the functions of cold compress and hot compress, as well as pressure technology. It is usually composed of two parts of the main engine and peripheral accessories, the main engine includes the refrigeration system, the temperature control system and the water circulation control system, the peripheral accessories include the thermal insulation hose and the special protection of the hydrofoil in each part.



This device provides a cold source or heat source through a semiconductor refrigeration system, cools or heats the water in the tank to the clinically required water temperature, and then outputs it to the water sac through the water circulation system. The water sac is in contact with the patient’s body and uses the water cycle to take away heat or provide heat to achieve local cooling or heating effect. At the same time, the device also has a pressurization function, which can promote blood circulation and lymphatic return through pressure, further accelerating the dissipation of inflammation and wound healing.



The cold and heat compression therapy machine has the advantages of simple operation, controllable temperature, adjustable pressure, etc., which is suitable for the treatment of various diseases and injuries. It can be used not only for the treatment of acute soft tissue injury, joint fracture before and after surgery, but also for the treatment of patients with degenerative osteoarthropathy, hemophilia acute joint swelling stage, etc. In addition, the device is also widely used in rehabilitation training, for patients with joint swelling pain, fever has a significant effect.



In short, heat and cold therapy, as a simple and effective means of treatment, plays an important role in the medical field. The cold and heat compression treatment machine, as a modern application equipment for cold and heat therapy, provides patients with more convenient and efficient treatment options.

The history of  Goodyear welt

Before the Industrial revolution, shoemaking craftsmen needed to use awls to taper holes and then sew the welts by hand, which is the hand welt process. In 1871, after the start of the second industrial revolution, a patent called "Goodyear Shoemaking Technology" was approved by the United States Patent Office. A brand-new sewing machine was invented that could replace manual work to remove soles and sew inner threads. The inventor was Charles Goodyear. Mr. Goodyear was an American inventor, known as the "Father of Rubber" for his invention of vulcanized rubber.

                                                   

                                                    Charles Goodyear and Goodyear shoe machine

The process of the Goodyear welt

The process of the Goodyear welt is as follows: Firstly, paste a layer of canvas strips on the insole, so as to form a rib structure similar to manual slotting. And then use a machine to complete the sewing of the welt,upper and insole. It is worth noting that the Goodyear shoe machine only sews inner threads and has nothing to do with outer threads. As early as 1856, Lyman Reed Blake had invented the Rapid stitch machine, a machine that could sew outer stitches (Lyman Reed Blake was also the inventor of the Blake process). The emergence of the Goodyear shoe machine has greatly improved the production efficiency of shoes. Together with the upper sewing machine and the rapid stitch outer thread sewing machine, the shoemaking industry has been brought into the machine age, liberating manpower.

Now, we can draw a clear conclusion that the Goodyear welt is used to replace Hand welt, and it has been tied to the machine since its birth. Shoes with welts sewn by craftsmen can only be called “hand welt” , not Goodyear welt.

In movies and video games, body armor makes you invulnerable, able to survive many shots without even slowing down. In real life, of course, things are much different: Body armor doesn’t repel bullets. Being shot — even with armor on — is a traumatic experience at best. When a bullet hits body armor, the tough layered fibers that make up the armor decelerate the bullet and spread out its force. The bullet’s effect on the armor, and the tissue beneath it, is still considerable, and can cause tearing of the skin, bruising, and even broken bones.

 

We- China Xinxing Guangzhou Imp&Exp Co., Ltd.  will introduce how to test the body armor.

 

However, the amount of deformation must fall within certain limits or the armor will fail to live up to the standards co-authored by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the National Institute of Justice (NIJ). The standards were developed with input from a wide variety of stakeholders and published by the NIJ. These standards require that the armor be tested by mounting it onto a block of clay with specific, well-understood properties. Researchers use clay that is only deformed by a specific amount when a 63.5 mm (2.5 inch) diameter steel sphere is dropped onto it from a height of 2 meters (6.56 feet). When the armor is tested, it must withstand 12 shots, six front and six back, and the deformations in the clay block behind it may be no deeper than 44 mm (1.73 inches). 

Research at NIST has found that moisture from sweating, along with the folds that occur in the vests’ fibers from the officers wearing the armor, can cause certain types of fibers to weaken and fail. As a result, part of the current test method requires six samples of each type of armor to be tumbled in something like a commercial dryer with a controlled heat and humidity to simulate wear and tear before they are subjected to the live fire test.

NIST worked with the U.S. Army and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to develop the first generation of these tests in the 1970s. Today, NIST partners with the NIJ, the research arm of the DOJ, to develop standards and Bulletproof body armor. The DOJ provides funding to police departments to buy vests that have been shown to be trustworthy by adhering to those standards and passing those tests. While we would hope that no officer should ever have their armor tested in the field, testing and standards for body armor reassures us that the armors they wear will perform for them when they need it most.
