Objective To reduce the execution time of neural network training. Methods Parallel particle swarm optimization algorithm based on master-slave model is proposed to train radial basis function neural networks, which is implemented on a cluster using MPI libraries for inter-process communication. Results High speed-up factor is achieved and execution time is reduced greatly. On the other hand, the resulting neural network has good classification accuracy not only on training sets but also on test sets. Conclusion Since the fitness evaluation is intensive, parallel particle swarm optimization shows great advantages to speed up neural network training.

The serum level of 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 was determined in patients with type 2 diabetes,diabetic nephropathy,and healthy objects..The results demonstrated that the serum 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 level in type 2 diabetic patients with nephropathy was lower than that in the healthy objects or type 2 diabetes objects.Blood β2-M,total cholesterol,creatinine,24 h urinary albumin,and course of illness in type 2 diabetic patients with nephropathy have relationship with serum 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3.

Objective To investigate whether pulse pressure variation (△PP) reflect the effects of PEEP and fluid resuscitation (FR) on hemodynamic effects.Methods Twenty critical patients with acute lung injury was ventilated with volume control (VT =8 mL/kg,Ti/Te = 1: 2) ,and PaCO2 was kept at 35 to 45 mm Hg.PEEP was setted as 5 cm H2O and 15 cm H2O in randomized order.Hemodynamic parameters including cardiac index, pulse pressure, central venous pressure, etc.were monitered by PiCCO system.Measurements were performed after the application of 5 cm H2O PEEP (PEEPs group)and 15 cm H2O PEEP (PEEP15 group) respectively.When the PEEP-induced decrease in cardiac index (CI) was > 10%, measurements were also performed after fluid resuscitation.Results Compared with PEEPs group, CI was decreased significantly in PEEP15 group(P < 0.05), and APP was increased significantly (P < 0.05).In 14 patients whose PEEP-induced decrease in CI was > 10%, fluid resuscitation increased CI from (3.01±0.57)L · min-1· m-1to (3.62±0.68)L · min-1 · m-2(P<0.01),and decreased △PP from (17±3)% to (10±2) % (P < 0.01).PEEP15-induced decrease in CI was correlated negatively with APP on PEEP5 (r =-0.91,P < 0.01) and with the PEEP15-induced increase in △PP (r =-0.79, P < 0.01).FR-induced changes in CI correlated with APP before FR (r = 0.96, P < 0.01) and with the FR-induced decrease in APP (r =-0.95, P < 0.01).Conclusions In ventilated patients with ALI, △PP may be a simple and useful parameter in predicting and assessing the hemodynamic effects of PEEP and FR.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between the newly recominended chronic heart failue (CHF) marker-serum galection-3 (Gal-3)level and the prognosis of CHF by Meta-analysis.Methods The Chinese and English literatures about the relationship between Gal-3 and CHF prognosis were searched in PubMed,EMbase, Chinese Biomedical Literature Databases. All literatures were assessed by the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Hazard ratio (HR)and 95% confidence interval (CI)in each literature were extracted for Meta-analysis using STATA 12.1 software.The stability and reliability were evaluated by sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis.Results Ten literatures complying with the requirements were included.The results of heterogeneity test were as follows:① When the influence of other factors were not excluded,heterogeneity test showed that P =0.000,I 2 =89.2%,heterogeneity existed in different studies,so statistics were combined using a random effects model.The combined HR of univariate analysis was 1.36 and 95% CI was 1.23-1.50.2.When the influence of other factors were excluded,heterogeneity test showed that P < 0.001,I 2 = 68.4%,heterogeneity existed in different studies,so statistics were combined using a random effects model.The combined HR of multivariate analysis was 1.17 and 95% CI was 1.07-1.26.3.Sensitivity analysis showed that when the study with the largest samples was excluded,the combined HR of univariate analysis was 1.54 and 95% CI was 1.32 - 1.77;the combined HR of multivariate analysis was 1.26 and 95% CI was 1.09 - 1.42.When the study with the smallest samples was excluded,the combined HR of univariate analysis was 1.34 and 95% CI was 1.20 - 1.47;the combined HR of multivariate analysis was 1.15 and 95% CI was 1.06-1.24.Conclusion The serum level of Gal-3 is increased significantly in the patients with CHF and it may be an independent risk factor for poor prognosis of the CHF patients.

Background The visual evoked potential (VEP) is an important functional index to assess visual cortex plasticity.Monocular form deprivation(MD) of rat is a classic model to study visual cortex plasticity change.Utilizing VEP technique record the shift of ocular dominance in adult rats model is of an important significance for explore the treating opportunities of amblyopia.Objective The present study was to observe the pattern VEP changes in different ages of Long-Evens rats and the adult rats after binocular form deprivation.Methods Thirty-six healthy SPF Long-Evens rats were divided into PW3,PW4,PW5,PW6 groups according to the postnatal weeks,and PW7 rats included 36 SPF Long-Evens rats.The left eye lids of the rats were sutured in PW3,PW6 and PW7 rats for 3,5,7 days respectively,and PVEP in both left and right eye were recorded to assess the rat age that visual cortex plasticity ended.Bilateral PVEP were recorded in PW7 rats,and the bilateral eyelids were sutured to establish the bilateral form deprivation models.The right eyes were opened in 7,10,14 days,and the left eyes were opened in the next 3,5,7 days respectively and the PVEPs were recorded again to find the shift of ocular dominance and whether binocular form deprivation induce the visual cortex plasticity in adult rats.Results The P100amplitudes of the left eyes were gradually declined and those of the right eyes were raised from 3 to 7 days after MD of the left eyes in rats of PW3 group in comparison with before MD ( P＜0.01 ).In PW6 groups,no significant changes in P100amplitudes of both the right and left eyes were found in the third day after MD,but significant raise in the right eyes and lowing in the left eyes were seen in the 5 and 7 days after MD in comparison with before MD(P＜0.01 ).No any P100changes in both eyes were found in 3-7 days after MD compared with before MD in PW7 rats (P＞0.05).The C/I ratio (contralateral VEP amplitude to ipsilateral VEP amplitude in occluded eyes) in the rats of PW3,PW4 and PW5 groups were 1.07±0.15,1.16±0.16 and 1.14±0.15 respectively in 3 days after MD,showing the significant lowing in comparison with before MD (2.69±0.45,2.58±0.4,2.62±0.32) (P＜0.01),but those of PW6 and PW7 were unchanged (2.80±0.48 vs 2.90±0.46,2.59 ±0.36 vs 2.90±0.46,P＞0.05 ),indicating the absence of ocular dominance plasticity in the adult rats.In rats of PW7 with binocular form deprivation for 14 days,a significant decrease was observed in the C/I ratio in rats with next MD for 3 days,demonstrating that the visual cortex plasticity was reactivated after 14 days of binocular form deprivation in PW7 rats( 1.33±0.18 vs 2.70±0.45,P＜0.01 ).Conclusions PVEP can be recorded in Long-Evens rats.It is a major index for identifying the shift of ocular dominance in the Long-Evens rats.Binocular form deprivation can reflect the visual cortex plasticity in the adult rats.
