RESULTS:After treatment,LH,FSH,T and FINS of patients in observation group were lower than before treatment and control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05);control time of disease and actual treatment time of observation group were significantly shorter control group (P<0.05),with statistical significance;HOMA-IR and HOMA-β of observation group were significantly lower than those of control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05);clinical effective rate of patients in observation group was significantly higher than control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Clomiphene combined with metformin in the treatment of polycystic ovarian syn-drome can improve biochemical indicators,shorten control time of disease and actual treatment time and enhance clinical effi-cacy.
6.Electroencephalogram recognition of imaginary right and left hand movements by brain-computer interface
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2009;13(17):3370-3374
Based on the peak value of power spectral density (PPSD) and corresponding frequency (CF), an approach that performs electroencephalogram (EEG) feature extraction during imaginary right and left hand movements was proposed. The data were gained from brain computer interface competition in 2003 provided by Graz University of Technology. The EEG signals between 8-16 Hz were decomposed by db3 wavelet packet at three levels. The PPSD and CF of electrodes C3 and C4 were defined as the EEG feature vectors and calculated respectively. The left and right hand motor imaginary tasks were distinguished by the time-variable linear classifier. The proposed method was applied to the test data for 140 trials. The satisfactory results were obtained with the highest classification accuracy 89.29%. The maximum mutual information was 0.622 8 bit, and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) was 1.371 3. The PPSD and its CF on electrodes C3 and C4 between 8 and 16 Hz were coincident with event-related desynchronization (ERD) and event-related synchronization (ERS). This method is simple, quick, and promising for on-line brain computer interface system.
7.Sustainable Development of Biomedical Research Ethics
Chinese Medical Ethics 1994;0(05):-
Traced back to the one decade's development of research ethics in China,the author summarizes the current issues,such as: not sufficient implementing of informed consent,relatively loose review of IRB,IRBs lack ability to improve the review level and not provide much education opportunities to researchers,and not yet take account into the continuous review to the protocols approved before.By comparing the current issues of China and the conditions of U.S.in 1998,we can find some similarities exist,so we can learn from the lessons and experiences of the development of research ethics in the United and the other country,such as adding the model of region ethical review committee,instead of only institutional IRB.The author aims to point out some general ideas about research ethics capacity building,enforce training continuously,government pay much attention to IRB regulation and consider much on cultural elements,which are all bases for the road of sustainable development of research ethics in China.
