Objective To explore the feasibility of He-Ne laser irradiation in promoting orthodontic tooth movement and periodontal remodeling through observing the effect of low power laser on the expression and distribution of matrix metalloproteinases- 9(MMP- 9) during orthodontic tooth movement in rabbit. Methods Thirty rabbits were divided into 1d,3d,5d,7d,14d and 21d groups, each group were given a coil spring connected to the maxillary upper first molar to the upper incisor and fixed bilaterally by a ligature wire and set force to 80g. He-Ne laser irradiation was performed on the right side of the orthodontic tooth, and the left side served as control. Radiation time ranged from 1 day to 5 days, once a day, 15min each time. All of the tissue sections were proceeded with MMP- 9 immunohistochemical staining. MMP- 9 average gray scale in periodontal tissue of the orthodontic teeth was analyzed by a Computer Image Analyzing System. Results The expression level of MMP- 9 increased earlier and lasted for a longer time in the compression and tension area on the side of irradiation by He-Ne laser as compared to those on the control side. There was significant difference between the irradiation side and the control side in terms of the MMP- 9 expression gray scale in the tension zones at 5 and 7 days post-operation, and in the pressure zones at 3,5,7 day post-operation. Conclusion During the movement of orthodontic teeth, local irradiation with He-Ne laser could increase the expression of MMP-9. It was suggested that the irradiation with low power laser accelerate blood vessel and bone remodeling.

Objective:This study aims to explore recent developments in DEA-based hospital efficiency studies in China, so as to provide reference for further research in DEA-based hospital efficiency. Methods:In this study, a 30-year retrospective systematic review is conducted for the classification of 85 hospital efficiency studies that have been published in China with DEA. The characteristics are summarized and compared with those of international liter-ature according to the selection of input and output indicators to evaluate the normalization of studies in China. Re-sults:The classification reveals several problems existing in DEA-based hospital efficiency studies in China, such as too few studies on hospital allocation efficiency, the application of simple classical models, imprecise selection of in-put-output indicators, inappropriate application of monetary variables as output indicators, etc. Conclusions and sug-gestions:The normalization and rationality of DEA methods applied in China’s hospital efficiency research need to be improved, so as to shorten the gap between China and the international world. Chinese researchers should pay more attention to studying the latest international research findings, so as to scientifically select input and output indicators. In depth analysis of methods and application conditions should be conducted so as to improve the normalization and science of China’s hospital efficiency research.

In this paper, an adaptive notch filter based on QRD-LS algorithm for power line interference in ECG is researched. It can automatically eliminate the power line interference in order to improve the signal-to-interference ratio. Furthermore, QLD-LS algorithm, which is recursive least-squares minimization using systolic arrays, is employed to adjust the weight vector. Compared with the adaptive notch filter based on LMS (least mean square) algorithm, it has good robustness. Simulation examples confirm the results. QRD-LS adaptive notch filter has better performance in comparison with LMS method.

Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 2020;36(11):902-906
Objective:With Diagnosis related groups(DRG)indicator introduced into the hospital efficiency evaluation, to analyze the adjustment effect of DRG on the efficiency value, and to compare the similarities and differences between the DEA efficiency value and the DRG efficiency indicator.Methods:The DRG pilot data in 2017 and 2018 of tertiary hospitals in Hubei province and related data from other reports were collected. Indicators including the actual number of beds, the number of employees, the actual total bed days occupied, and medical income were used as input indicators, and total admissions, number of discharges, weight of DRG and number of DRG groups were used as output indicators. 7 models were constructed using different indicator combinations. The efficiency of the hospital was calculated by the Bootstrap-DEA efficiency evaluation method. The relationship between hospital attributes and efficiency was analyzed by a generalized linear model.Results:There was an abnormal phenomenon that the higher the hospital level, the lower the efficiency in the efficiency value calculated by the traditional method. The efficiency values of county hospitals, city hospitals and provincial hospitals were 0.83, 0.74 and 0.71, respectively( P<0.01). DRG weight and group number were used as output for DEA analysis, and the efficiency values of county hospitals, city hospitals, and provincial hospitals were 0.95, 0.95 and 0.96( P=0.20)respectively. The DRG efficiency indications of county hospitals, city hospitals and provincial hospitals were 1.42, 1.11, 1.00 respectively( P<0.01). The higher the level, the lower the efficiency, while the efficiency values calculated by DEA were 0.84, 0.82, 0.86, respectively( P=0.58). Conclusions:The efficiency value calculated by the traditional method presents a systematic bias, which could be corrected effectively when DEA analysis using DRG weights is used as output indicator. The results developed new ideas of efficiency analysis for hospitals practicing DRG management.
