Objective To establish an IT-based follow-up platform, and to explore its application effect in patients with ischemic stroke.Methods By constructing a follow-up model and a recurrence risk warning model for ischemic stroke patients, such a follow-up platform was established.Thanks to the retrospective comparative and analysis method, we built a study group comprising ischemic stroke patients discharged since the platform and a control group comprising 228 such patients discharged prior to the platform.These two groups were followed up by means of IT-based manner and traditional paper-based manner respectively at the first,third,sixth,ninth,and twelfth months since their discharge.These patients were analyzed in terms of their medication adherence,activities of daily living and recurrence rate.Results One year after the follow-up,32 cases were lost of contact in the study group and 42 cases from the control group.Medication adherence of the study group was higher than that of the control group at the sixth month (2.72 ±0.62), ninth month(2.86 ±0.37)and twelfth month(2.83 ±0.40)after discharge, with the differences being statistically significant(P <0.05).The recurrence rate of the study group at the ninth months(6.38%)and twelfth months(10.21%)after follow-up was lower than that of the control group,a difference being statistically significant(P<0.05).The difference of BI scores between the two groups was not statistically significant(P>0.05).Conclusions The IT-based follow-up platform could improve the medication adherence of ischemic stroke patients,and reduce the recurrence rate of ischemic stroke,but the effect of improving activities of daily living was still not significant.

Objective:To aid in the detection of thyroid cancer by using deep learning to differentiate the unique bioimpedance parameter patterns of different thyroid tissues.Methods:An electrical impedance system was designed to measure 331 ex-vivo thyroid specimens from 321 patients during surgery. The impedance data was then analyzed with one dimensional convolution neural (1D-CNN) combining with long short-term memory (LSTM) network models of deep learning. In the process of analysis, we assigned 80% of the data to training set (1072/1340) and the remaining 20% data to the test set (268/1340). The performance of final model was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. In addition, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, Youden index were applied to compare impedance model with ultrasound results.Results:The ROC curve of the two-classification (malignant /non-malignant tissue) model showed a good performance (area-under-the-curve AUC=0.94), with an overall accuracy of 91.4%. To better fit clinical practice, we further performed a three-classification (malignant/ benign/ normal tissue) model, of which the areas under ROC curve were 0.91, 0.85, 0.92 for normal, benign, and malignant group, respectively. The results indicated that the area under micro-average ROC curve and the macro-average ROC curve were 0.91 and 0.90, respectively. Moreover, compared with ultrasound, the impedance model exhibited higher specificity.Conclusions:A deep learning model (CNN-LSTM) trained by thyroid electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) parameters shows an excellent performance in distinguishing among different in-vitro thyroid tissues, which is promising for applications. In future clinical utility, our study does not replace existing tests, but rather complements others, thus contributing to therapeutic decision-making and management of thyroid disease.

Objective:To investigate the serotype distribution and drug resistance of Streptococcus pneumoniae ( S. pneumoniae) isolated in Urumqi Children′s Hospital and to evaluate the significances of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) in preventing infection and controlling drug resistance. Methods:The S. pneumoniae isolates stored in clinical laboratory of Urumqi Children′s Hospital from January to December in 2018 were re-cultured.The serotypes were detected by capsule swelling experiment to assess the coverage rate of PCV13.The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Penicillin, Amoxicillin, Cefotaxime and Ceftriaxone were detected by E-test method, and the susceptibility of the isolates to Meropenem and other 9 antibiotics was detected by VITEC 2 Compact system. Results:A total of 225 S. pneumoniae strains were identified.The common serotypes were 19F (32.9%), 23F (12.0%), 19A (10.7%), 6B (10.2%) and 6A (8.0%). PCV13 coverage rate was 80.4%.There was no significant difference in serotype distribution and PCV13 coverage between children < 2 years old and ≥ 2 years old, as well as between Han and minority people.The 57.8% and 31.7% strains showed intermediate susceptibility and resistance against oral Penicillin, respectively.Based on the breakpoints for meningitis, 89.4% strains were resistant against pare-nteral Penicillin, and 47.5% and 64.6% strains were non-susceptible (mainly intermediately susceptible) to Ceftria-xone and Cefotaxime, respectively.The resistance rates of strains against Erythromycin, Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim and Tetracycline were as high as 98.1%, 67.6% and 89.6%, respectively.More than 90% tested isolates were susceptible to Amoxicillin, Meropenem, Levofloxacin or Moxifloxacin.PCV13 strains were more resistant to Penicillin than non-PCV13 strains. Conclusions:The serotypes 19F, 23F, 19A, 6B and 6A are common among the S. pneumoniae isolated in Urumqi.The coverage rate of PCV13 is about 80%.There was no significant difference in serotype distribution between Han and minority nationality children. S. pneumoniae were frequently resistant against Erythromycin.The high resistance to Penicillin and other beta-lactams should be taken into account when treatment is decided for suspected pneumococcal meningitis.Universal administration of PCV13 would be effective strategy to prevent pneumococcal infection in children and to control the drug resistance of S. pneumoniae.
