This paper introduces an ECG real time monitoring system based on LabVIEW.With Wavelet transformation,the original ECG signals are processed to increase the accuracy of R peak detection.The feature of real time in this system is ensured by the application of simplified algorithm.The result panel offers various types of HRV information in time domain,including numerical and graphical displays which make the data more intuitional and more convenient to obtain.The system runs well in lab and the result is acceptable.

To determine whether the pathological changes caused by injury to the spinal cord can be correlated with values obtained by the Magnetic Motor Evoked Potential (MEPs) technique, we studied spinal cords from 41 adult cats who were divided into 4 groups. The groups ranged from normal cats whose spinal cords were not compressed, to slightly, moderately and severely injured. MEPs were recorded before compression and in 30 minutes, 6 hours, 1 week, 2 week and 4 week after the compression unit was installed. Pathological changes with increased pressure were seen in blood vessels, nerve cells and fibers, Nissl substance and the central canal. A reversal of pathological changes was observed in slight or moderate injury during the 4 weeks of the experiment. Extensive injury, however, caused irreversible changes in the nerve cells with loss of motor function. The latency of MEPs at 30 minutes and 6 hours in the slightly injured group was 0.37 and 0.38 times greater than the baseline and returned to normal levels in 4 weeks. In the moderately injured group, the latency was increased 0.77 and 0.81 times and in the severely injured 1.32 and 1.36 times over the baseline. Recovery in the second group was partial and not at all in the severely injured. Thus, there appears to be good correlation between observed pathological changes, motor functions and MEPs.

Objective To explore the histological basis of diffusion tensor tractography (DTT)fiber tracer images of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)and prostate cancer (PCa).Methods Sixty-eight patients with PCa and sixty patients with BPH confirmed by pathology were recruited for this study.Conventional MRI and DTI examinations were performed.The original DTI data were processed at the AW4.5 workstation.After pos-t processed,FA and ADC values were recorded,DTT was plotted.Fiber bundle travel was observed and scored by two senior radiologists.The BPH and PCa specimens were stained with Masson fibers,and the diameter and angle of the fiber bundles were recorded.Results The FA values of BPH and PCa were 0.22±0.05 and 0.47±0.01 ,respectively.ADC values of BPH and PCa were (1.31 ±0.27)×10－3 mm2/s and (0.6 1 ±0.09)× 10－3 mm2/s,respectively.The differences in ADC and FA values among BPH and PCa were statistically significant (P＜0.05).DTT showeded that the fibers of BPH were dense and long,while the fibers of PCa were messy and short.The diameter and angle of collagen fibers and smooth muscle fibers for BPH were both larger than those for PCa,but only the difference between the diameter of smooth muscle fibers was statistically significant (P＜0.05).Conclusion There are significant differences between BPH and PCa in DTT images,which is consistent with the characteristics of fiber structure.DTI fiber bundle can reflect the differences of fiber structure between BPH and PCa.

Objective To evaluate the effect of prone ventilation in children with severe pneumonia at high altitude.Methods By convenience sampling method,80 children with severe pneumonia hospitalized in intensive care department of a tertiary A children's hospital in Xining,Qinghai Province from June 2021 to June 2023 were selected as the study subjects,and the regional randomization group method was used to divide into a test group and a control group with 40 cases in each group.On the basis of routine care,the test group received prone ventilation once a day for 6 to 12 h;the control group received supine ventilation.Respiratory mechanical parameters(oxygenation index,oxygen saturation,arterial oxygen partial pressure,arterial CO2 partial pressure),mechanical ventilation duration and safety parameters(incidence of unplanned extubation,stress injury)at 6 h and 12 h of mechanical ventilation were compared.Results There were no shedding cases.The interaction between oxygenation index,blood oxygen saturation and arterial oxygen partial pressure(P＜0.05)in the 2 groups was compared(P＞0.05).The results of simple effect analysis showed that at 6 h,the oxygen saturation and oxygenation index in the test group were higher than those in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).At 12 h of mechanical ventilation,the oxygenation index,blood oxygen saturation and arterial oxygen partial pressure in the test group were higher than those in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The time of mechanical ventilation in the test group was102.00(60.00,153.00)h and 126.00(108.00,156.00)h in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.013).The incidence of unplanned extubation and pressure injury were compared,and the differences in 2 groups were not significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion Prone ventilation in children with severe pneumonia at high altitude is safe and feasible,which is helpful to improve the respiratory function and shorten the time of mechanical ventilation.
