ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between carotid atherosclerosis and progressing stroke.Methods103 patients with acute cerebral infarction within the first 24 hours from onset were tested with carotid color doppler ultrasonography during the first week from admission. Univariate and multiple logistic regression analyses were performed to examine the relationship between carotid intima media thickness (IMT), plaque structure, the degree of artery stenosis and the early deterioration of cerebral infarction.ResultsPrevalence of carotid plaque and thickness of IMT in patients with progressing stroke were higher than that in non progressing patients. In logistic regression, presence of carotid plaque was independent predictors of progressing stroke. Plaque size, extent of artery stenosis and IMT were not included in the regression model.ConclusionPlaque structure and its chemical feature may be the cause of progressing stroke.
5.Decision-making of restorations for endodontically treated teeth.
West China Journal of Stomatology 2015;33(2):115-120
Coronal restoration of endodontically treated teeth may be viewed as one of the main parameters that influence the outcome of endodontic treatment. The purposes of restoring endodontically-treated teeth include preventing recontamination of the root canal system and periapical area, replacing the compromised dental hard tissue, restoring the coronal morphology and function, providing necessary strength for the restoration/tooth complex for functional stress, and avoiding crown and/or root fracture. This article reviewed recent researches on the restoration of endodontically treated teeth, provided evidence for clinical practice on topics as when to restore them, basic principles to be considered during treatment planning, and specific restoration options for both anterior and posterior teeth under different functional occulsal load conditions. Several issues should be taken into account during the decision making process, such as remaining tooth tissue, functional masticatory forces, comprehensive oral rehabilitation, and esthetic requirements.

Fudan University Journal of Medical Sciences 2009;36(4):413-416
Objective To evaluate the clinical practical value of the heart rate viability test in the patients with malignant tumor during their therapies. Methods Totally 187 cases were analyzed and were divided into three different groups, which included 90 malignant tumor patients before therapy, 45 patients with chemotherapy and 52 non-malignant tumor cases (control group). We compared four HRV indexes(ASDNN5,SDANNS, SDNN and RMSSD) of the patients between the different groups as well as inside each group. Results There were statistical significances in the indexes of ASDNN5, SDANN5 and SDNN of patients at different stages before therapy, the three indexes of the stage Ⅲ group were lower than those of the stage Ⅰ group and the control group as well. The three indexes of the stage Ⅳ group compared with the stage Ⅰ group or the control group (P<0.05) were lower either. There was also statistical significances in SDNN between the stage Ⅲ and the stage Ⅱ of the before-therapy group (P< 0. 05). The indexes of SDANN5 and SDNN of the stage Ⅳ in the chemotherapy group were lower than those of the same stage in the before-therapy group(P<0.05). Conclusions The later the stage of malignant tumor patients is, the more the index of HRV declines. Chemotherapy may affect autonomic nerve function of stage Ⅳ patients with malignant tumor and decrease their HRV.

9.The parameter estimation method of Gaussian point spread function in microscopic images.
Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2014;31(1):53-57
As the most popular simplified model of the optical imaging system, the acquisition of the Gaussian point spread function (PSF) parameter is one of the hotspots and key points on which people do research in the field of image restoration. Based on the idea by which there exists deterministic mathematical relationship between Gaussian OTF feature points as well as its parameter and the frequency representation of the image in an existed literature, we proposed an automatic, accurate, stable, and improved approach. This method is able to give prominence to the related calculation feature by a Gaussian convolution and degeneration operation and finally realize the automatic esti mation of PSF parameter of a microscopic image. Experiments have proved that a good restoration result can be achieved utilizing the estimated PSF by the present method, which is of considerable application and reference value in restoration of other sorts with Gaussian approximate PSF model or 3D microscopic image restoration.
