Objective To study and design a fluid resuscitation control system which is suitable for the treatment of hemorrhagic shock in the battlefield and prehospital settings. Methods The physiological parameters of the wounded were set as the system input and fuzzy control technology was used to identify the hemorrhagic shock (HS) severity and made a decision. At last, fluid resuscitation was finished with the use of the efficient blood transfusion and infusion pump. Results High-speed resuscitation could be carried out when the wounded was in severe condition, while low-speed resuscitation could be conducted when the wound was in mild condition. Conclusions Compared with the traditional resuscitation method, the designed fluid resuscitation control system can improve the efficiency of fluid resuscitation and the treatment success rate.

Objective: To evaluate value of application of intravascular ultrasound imaging (IVUS) in diagnosing borderline lesions in left anterior descending artery (LAD) and left main coronary artery (LM). Methods: According to results of coronary angiography (CAG) in 60 cases with coronary borderline lesions, including 20 cases in LM, 20 cases in proximal segment of LAD and 20 cases in middle segment of LAD, the diagnostic value of IVUS in coronary borderline lesion was evaluated. Results: Compared with CAG, mean diameter stenosis rate of each coronary artery [LM: (65.3l±7.81) % vs. (75.28±8.89) %，proximal segment of LAD: (66.67±8.79) % vs. (78.89±7.88) %，middle segment of LAD: (71.55±6.83) % vs. (75.3l±7.81) %, P<0.01 all] significantly increased in IVUS. The differences of detection rate of plaque calcification and plaque rupture were no significant between CAG and IVUS（＞0.05）. Conclusion: Different degrees of underestimation of coronary artery stenosis exist in CAG, especially in proximal segment of LAD. IVUS can be an effective complement to CAG.

Objective To develop an intelligent system which is able to offer an optimized emergency treatment recommendation for fast triage automatically.Methods An algorithm and intelligent platform for grading injury were developed based on physiological signal collecting technology, intelligent grading algorithm and integration technology.A comparison between this system and traditional methods was made.Results This intelligent system was able to increase accuracy by 21%and took only 48%of the time taken by traditional methods.There was significant difference between the two groups(P=0.038<0.05).Conclusion The accuracy of the triage is improved by this intelligent system that is less time-consuming.With this device, the injury statement can be identified quickly and the targeted medical treatment can be performed accurately.The efficiency of emergency treatment in case of disaster will thus be dramatically increased.

To have a thorough understanding of the CPR quality based on patients' various physiological states, the doctors must do something to simulate the chest compression physiological feedback parameters (CCPFP). The CCPFP simulation plays an important role in raising efficiency of CPR training and improving chest compression quality. In this study, the CCPFP, including cardiac output (CO), coronary perfusion pressure (CPP), partial pressure of End-tidal CO2 (PETCO2) and mean arterial relaxation pressure (MARP), was simulated using Charles F. Babbs' Model. Simulation results showed that the effect of compression depth upon CCPFP was important in the range of 2-6 cm, whereas compression rate had little effect on the CCPFP higher than 100/min; the thoracic factor is inversely proportional to the CCPFP with fixed compression depth and compression rate. The CCPFP simulation can be implemented at the various physiological statuses, and verified well with the animal experimental results and the clinical results.

Objective To compare the effect of nutritional support with and without tube feeding on the incidence of adverse reactions in radiotherapy for esophageal cancer.Methods A total of 120 esophageal cancer patients with high-risk factors receiving radiotherapy were selected and randomly assigned into the tube feeding (TF,n=60) and non-tube feeding groups (NTF,n=60) according to the random number method.Nutritional interventions were performed during radiotherapy in both groups.The incidence of esophagitis and myelosuppressioa,aulmonary infectioa,autritional status and the completion of radiotherapy were observed and statistically compared between TF and NTF groups.Results In the TF groua,ahe incidence of ≥ grade 2 esophagitis was lower than that in the NTF group.The incidence of grade 3 esophagitis significantly differed between two groups (P＜ 0.05).The incidence of grade 1-2 myelosuppression did not differ between two groupa,ahereas the incidence of grade 3 myelosuppression in the TF group was significantly lower than that in the NTF group (P＜0.05).In the TF groua,ahe incidence of pulmonary infection was remarkably lower than that in the NTF group (P＜0.05).The changes of BMI and prealbumin in the TF group were better than those in the NTF group (both P＜0.05).One patient in the NTF group failed to complete the radiotherapy due to grade Ⅳ esophagitia,and 5 cases in the NTF group (P＜ 0.05).In the TF groua,ahe length of hospital stay was significantly shortened by 6.2 d on average (P＜ 0.05).Conclusions During radiotherapy for esophageal cancer patients with high-risk factora,autritional support with tube feeding can effectively reduce the incidence of adverse reactiona,amprove the completion rate of treatmena,and shorten the average length of hospital stay.

Objective To investigate the application value of ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology of lymph nodes in the pre-radiotherapy evaluation of superficial lymph nodes metastases in patients with lung cancer and esophageal cancer. Methods A total of 115 patients with lung cancer and esophageal cancer prepared for thoracic radiotherapy from February 2017 to September 2018 in Cancer Hospital of Huanxing Chaoyang District Beijing were retrospectively analyzed. Ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology examination was performed in 166 lymph nodes. Puncture tissues were prepared for cytology production. Then cytological specialist read the film to evaluate if the cancer cells metastasis were present after conventional papanicolaou staining. The effects of short diameter of lymph nodes, blood flow signal and tumor characteristics of patients on the results of cytological examination were analyzed. Results The ultrasound results showed the median short diameter of lymph nodes was 0.6 cm (0.2-3.5 cm), and 25 (15.1％) lymph nodes had blood flow signals, 50 (30.1％) lymph nodes had positive results of puncture tissues cytology. The positive rate of puncture tissues cytology was 10.0％(4/40), 21.6％(21/97) and 86.2％(25/29) in the shortdiameter of lymph nodes <0.5 cm group, ≥0.5 cm and <1 cm group, and ≥1 cm group, respectively (P<0.01). Cytology positive rate of lymph nodes with or without blood flow signal detected by ultrasound was 48.0％ (12/25) and 27.0％ (38/141), and there was a statistical difference (P = 0.034). Location of primary tumor, T stage and chemotherapy history had no significant influence on the cytological results in patients with lung cancer (all P> 0.05). Pathological types had a significant influence on cytological results (χ2= 8.050, P= 0.045). Lymph node metastasis of the upper mediastinum was a risk factor for lymph node metastasis in lower neck and supraclavicular region (χ2= 9.699, P= 0.002). Location of primary tumor, T stage and chemotherapy history had no significant influence on cytological results in patients with esophageal cancer (all P> 0.05). Conclusions Ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology is safe and efficient. It can be used to evaluate the metastasis status of superficial lymph nodes in pre-radiotherapy patients with lung cancer and esophageal cancer.

COVID-19 has brought a significant impact to the global health system, and also opportunities and challenges to epidemiological researches. Theoretical epidemiological models can simulate the process of epidemic in scenarios under different conditions. Therefore, modeling researches can analyze the epidemical trend of COVID-19, predict epidemical risks, and evaluate effects of different control measures and vaccine policies. Theoretical epidemiological modeling researches provide scientific advice for the prevention and control of infectious diseases, and play a crucial role in containing COVID-19 over the past year. In this study, we review the theoretical epidemiological modeling researches on COVID-19 and summarize the role of theoretical epidemiological models in the prevention and control of COVID-19, in order to provide reference for the combination of mathematical modeling and epidemic control.
