Assembling an adapted smoothing method and a classifier of wavelet transform combined support vector machine ( SVM) , a Raman spectrum recognition approach was built for low signal noise ratio situation. Firstly, spectra data were denoised by the adapted smoothing method. The smoothing window was adapted to the signal noise ratio, which would effectively remove noise with the intensity of the signal well remained. Secondly, the wavelet transform was used for dimension reduction of the data. The decomposition level of wavelet transform was optimized according to the best classification result of the training set. Lastly, SVM was used for classification. Cross Validation ( CV ) was applied to obtain the optimized parameters of SVM. Conditions for the effective parameters were searched considering the relation between the cross_validation result and the classification accuracy. Combined with the surface enhanced Raman scattering ( SERS ) technology , the developed spectrum recognition approach was used for qualitative analysis of methamphetamine ( MAMP ) and 3, 4_methylenedioxymethamphetamine ( MDMA ) in peopleˊs urine, where the detecting accuracy is above 95. 0%. The uniform Au nanorods (NRs) SERS substrate synthetized by the Hefei Institute of Intelligent Machines of Chinese Academy of Sciences was used for the experiment. Raman spectra were acquired using an Inspector Raman ( DeltaNu) spectrometer, with the excitation wavelength of 785 nm and the integrate time of 5 seconds.

Objective To investigate the role of dual-source parallel radio frequence (RF) and single-source excitation in liver imaging at 3.0 T MR.Methods This study was a retrospective analysis.One hundred and seven subjects underwent a 3.0 T TX MR scanning including axial spectrally selective attenuated inversion recovery (SPAIR) T2WI,axial DWI and coronal balanced-fast field echo( Balanced FFE).Each sequence was carried out with both single-source and dual-source RF excitation.Student＇s t test was used to compare the differences between single-source and dual-source RF excitation in the image uniformity,signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR).Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to determine whether there was difference between conventional and parallel transmission in the score of image quality.Reader agreement was assessed using the Cohen＇s Kappa test.Results For the image uniformity,there was significant difference between single-source and dual-source excitation (418.40 ± 66.75 for single-source vs.416.26 ± 50.61 for dual-source,t =2.524,P ＜ 0.05 ).There also existed significant difference between single-source and dual-source excitation in SNR and CNR,respectively.The SNR and CNR of parallel transmission (22.03 + 12.16 and 18.33 ± 10.01,respectively) were both higher than those of single transmission (20.36 ± 11.21 and 15.22 ± 8.95,respectively) ( t =- 2.630,P ＜ 0.05 for SNR and t =- 4.238,P ＜ 0.05 for CNR).Image quality comparisons revealed significantly better results with dual-source than single-source RF excitation at SPAIR T2 WI ( 1.40 + 0.42 vs.1.81 ± 0.27 ),DWI ( 1.08 ± 0.40 vs.1.63 ± 0.36 ) and Balanced FFE sequence ( 0.95 ± 0.45 vs.1.65 ± 0.37,Z =- 5.894,- 5.801 and - 6.985,respectively,P ＜ 0.01 ).In the comparison of image quality,the agreement between the two readers was very good ( Kappa ＞ 0.8,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Dual-source parallel RF excitation MR imaging in liver enables reducing dielectric shading,improving homogeneity of the RF magnetic induction field,and increasing SNR and CNR at 3.0 T.

Objective To approach the mechanism and efficacy of regional intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy with the mixture of lipid emulsion-CDDP (LE-CDDP) for treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer. Methods Twenty-four health dogs were divided into four groups (group A, B, C, and D). The dosage of CDDP was used in 4 mg/kg/body weight for each animal The 20% LE, as a solvent, was used in the experimental animals with 2 ml/kg/ body weight (group A) and 1 ml/kg/bedy weight (group B), respectively. Normal sodium (NS) as a solvent was used as control with 2 ml/kg/bedy weight (group C) and 1 ml/kg/body weight (group D), respectively. The LE-CDDP mixture and the NS-CDDP mixture were infused into the proximal segment of splenic artery under the DSA, with transfemoral arterial approach. Blood samples were collected after infusion at 0,3,5,10,20,30,40,50,60 min and the tissues were obtained after the 60 min's blood sample was collected. Blood samples, absorbent gland in peripancreas, liver, spleen, kidney, heart, portal vein, the superior segment of jejunal and pancreas and parapancreatic tissues were obtained for CDDP concentration analysis and histopatholngic examination. Results The values of the area under curve (AUC), the incipient serum concentration ( C0 ) and the elimination half-life (t1/2 ) of the serum CDDP concentration-time curve in four groups were A (54. 5 ± 10.1)%,(2.6±0.5) mg/L, (16.7±3.6) min;B (18.3±6.0)%,(1.5±0.2) mg/L, (47.9 ± 11.1) min; C (116.7±20.6)%, (6.5±0.4) mg/L, (10.5±2.8) min and D (126.6±30.7)%, (5.5±0.4) mg/L, ( 10. 1±3. 1 ) min, respectively. There were significant difference among these four groups ( F(AUC) = 42. 42, F(C0) = 249. 61, F( t1/2 ) = 12. 48, P < 0. 01 ). The values of AUC and C0 in the group A were significantly lower than those in the group C (t(AUC) = 6. 64,t(C0) = 16. 34, P <0. 01 ), and the corresponding values in the group B being also significantly lower than those in the group D (t(AUC) = 8.49, t(C0) =22. 30, P<0. 01 ). The value t1/2 in the group A was significantly longer than that of in the group C ( t = 3.36, P < 0. 01 ), and that of group B was also significantly longer than that of group D ( t = 3.71, P <0. 01 ). The values of AUC and C0 in the group B were significantly lower than those in the group A (t(AUC) = 7. 57, t(C0) = 5.48, P < 0. 01 ), and the value t1/2 in the group B was significantly longer than that in the group A (t = 3.22, P < 0. 05 ). The concentrations of the left lobe and horn of pancreas were higher in the group B (0. 18, 0. 18 mg/L) than those in the group A (0. 05, 0. 05 mg/L) (t =2. 52, 2. 73, P < 0. 05). The tissue CDDP concentration of the right lobe of pancreas and spleen were no significant difference between group A ( 0. 11, 0. 29 mg/L ) and group B ( 0. 07, 0. 24 mg/L) ( P > 0. 05 ). Perivascular lymphocytic and neutrophilic infiltration, congestion and hemorrhage were found in the pancreas, parapancreatic absorbent gland, liver and spleen in the group A and group B. The micro-particles of intralipid were present in the capillary vessel of these tissues. No specific pathological changes were found in other groups and organs. Conclusions The regional intra-arterial infusion with LE-CDDP mixture could increase the pancreatic CDDP concentration, meanwhile, it also could decrease the serum CDDP concentration. The more of the CDDP concentration in the LE-CDDP mixture, the more CDDP concentration at the pancreatic tissue accordingly.

Objective To discuss feasibility and therapeutic effect of the interventional management through biliary tract drainage with percutaneous transhepatic puncture technique for biliary tract stricture after orthotopic liver transplantation. Methods A retrospective review of the clinical and imaging materials of 292 postoperative orthotopic liver transplantation cases was made. Of these 292 cases, 30 patients suffered from biliary tract complications and treated with billiary balloon dilatation, bile drainage and biliary stenting techniques. Results After biliary balloon dilatation, 3 cases of biliary tract strictures and leaks, 3 cases of simple biliary anastomosis site strictures and 7 out of the 8 cases of multiple biliary tract strictures were cured. In one of the multiple biliary tract stricture patients, a hepatic hematoma after biliary balloon dilatation was found and a second liver transplantation was done. In the 14 cases of multiple biliary tract strictures accompanied with biliary sludge, balloon dilatation technique was repeatedly performed. In 12 of the 14 cases, the strictures were improved remarkably and jaundice was subsided; In one of 14 cases, biliary tract stenting procedure was performed, but liver re-transplatation was carried out because of stent obstruction by much sludge. In the remaining 1 of the 14 cases, because there was no improvement of the strictures and relief of jaundice was revealed after the repeated procedures, liver re-transplantation was finally done In 2 cases of strictures at the opening segment of the T tube, the procedure of percutaneous transhepatic puncture for bile drainage was managed. After the procedure, the strictures were alleviated and the jaundice relieved. Conclusion The interventional managements through percutaneous transhepatic puncture techniques were effective, convenient and minimally invasive for treating biliary tract strictures after orthotopic liver transplantation.

Objective:To explore the application effect of continuous nursing based on hybrid electronic platform and fragmentation time in the out-of-hospital rehabilitation of patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.Methods:This was a randomized controlled study. From April 2020 to October 2021, a total of 90 patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in Weifang People′s Hospital were selected as the research objects by convenience sampling. Forty patients from April to December 2020 were selected as control group, and 45 patients from January to October 2021 were selected as intervention group. The control group implemented routine discharge guidance and follow-up, while the intervention group was given continuous nursing plan based on the concept of hybrid electronic platform and fragmented time. Before operation and 1, 3 and 6 months after operation, the knee range of motion and Lysholm score of patients in the two groups were analyzed. At 1, 3 and 6 months after operation, the rehabilitation exercise compliance score, self-efficacy score and knee stability examination of the two groups were analyzed.Results:A total of 41 patients in each group completed the study. At 1 month after operation, the knee range of motion, Lysholm score, rehabilitation exercise compliance score and self-efficacy score of intervention group were (96.46 ±3.58) ° and (53.54 ± 6.57), (69.17 ± 6.27), (4.01 ± 0.38) points, respectively. In the control group, they were (89.02 ± 4.22)° and (45.02 ± 7.61), (56.78 ± 8.45), (3.61 ± 0.42) points. At 3 months after operation, they were (136.83 ± 4.30)° and (72.76 ± 4.96), (60.71 ± 5.87), (4.97 ± 0.32) points in the intervention group, (133.54 ± 3.58)° and (69.83 ± 6.65), (56.73 ± 8.57), (4.83 ± 0.45) points in the control group, respectively. At 6 months after operation, they were (139.39 ± 1.99)° and (85.61 ± 6.11), (57.71 ± 7.41), (6.58 ± 0.96) points in the intervention group, (138.29 ± 2.65)° and (81.80 ± 6.38), (47.90 ± 6.02), (6.35 ± 1.23) points in the control group, respectively. The knee range of motion, Lysholm score and rehabilitation exercise compliance score of the intervention group were better than those of the control group at 1, 3 and 6 months after operation, and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.12-8.61, all P<0.05). The self-efficacy score of the intervention group was higher than that of the control group at 1 month after operation, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=4.57, P<0.05). Conclusions:The continuous nursing program based on hybrid electronic platform and fragmented time can improve the knee function of patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in the early postoperative period, improve the compliance of rehabilitation exercise and the level of early self-efficacy.
