The core problem of the brain-computer interface (BCI) based on neural signal is estimating neural firing rate from a spike train and then using neural population decoding algorithm to decode movement trajectory.In this artical, we review the theoretical basis of both classic and current firing rate estimations and compare the advantages and drawbacks of these methods. At the same time we also review the decoding algorithm which using neural firing rate to decode movement trajectory in brain- computer interface: population vector algorithm, linear filter and kalman filter. At last, some results applying these estimators of firing rate to decode arm movement in BCI are introduced. The results show apparently different performance of the different firing rate estimators, while minimal differences are observed in the actual application of BCI.

Objective To study the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), interleukin-1? (IL-1?) and ultrastructure changes in capillaries and to explore whether capillaries may play a role in the pathogenesis of polymyositis (PM). Methods Ten cases of patients with PM were collected. Control group 1 consists of 6 patients with other myopathies,Control group 2 consists of 2 muscle specimens without clinical and histological evidence of a neuromuscular disorder. An immunohistochemical technique was applied to indentify the expression of ICAM-1 and IL-1? in capillaries in the PM group, Control group 1 and Control group 2. The first analysis was a qualitative assessment. For the second analysis, the number of positive mononuclear cells and capillaries of the whole tissue section from each patient and control was estimated for all the immunologic markers investigated. 10 PM patients were also examined by electron microscopy in order to observe capillary changes in muscles. Results We found that the capillaries in tissues from PM (median (64?20)/mm~2 of tissue, ranging 44—106/mm~2) were significantly less than those from controls (median (157?46)/mm~2 of tissue, ranging 93—213/mm~2) (t=-4.523, P=0.003). A significantly higher number of capillaries expressed IL-1? in the PM group than in the Control group 1(median 15/mm~2 of tissue (ranging 6—46/mm~2) vs 3/mm~2 of tissue (ranging 0—16/mm~2)) (t=3.721, P=0.003). There was no significant difference between PM group and Control group 1 in the number of capillaries expressing ICAM-1 (t=0.529,P=0.617). However, ICAM-1 expressions in endothelial cells of capillaries were stronger in PM patients as IL-1?. Electronic microscopy found capillary changes in 6 PM patients, showing as thickening and duplication of basement membrane, swelling of endothelial cells, stenosis or occlusion of vessels.Conclusion Our findings indicate that capillary changes might take a role in the pathogenesis of PM.

The problem that the medical information work is specific expression of hospital comprehensive efficiency is pointed out. By giving medical information personnel is the key of the information construction, the emphasizing important effect of it and aiming directly at "patient-centered" to produce the construction level on the function of information center and medical information personnel. The hospital development combines with reality of medical information to prefer culti- vation suggestion of the medical information personnel.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of Yijing Recipe (YR) on the apoptosis of testis spermatogenic cells and the protein expression of Bcl-2/Bax in rats with adenine induced infertility.
METHODSTotally 75 Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups, i.e., the blank control group, the model group, the high dose YR group, the middle dose YR group, and the low dose YR group, 15 in each group. Except those in the blank control group, rats in the rest groups were intragastrically administered with adenine for 10 successive days. From the 11th day, rats in the blank control group and the model group were fed with equal volume of normal saline. Rats in the YR groups were intragastrically administered with YR at different doses (3.38 g/100 g; 1.69 g/100 g; 0.85 g/100 g), once daily for 20 consecutive days. All rats were killed by the end of the experiment and their testes extracted. The apoptosis of spermatogenic cells and the expression of Bcl-2/Bax proteins were detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated biotinylated UTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) and SABC method.
RESULTSCompared with the blank control group, the Bcl-2 protein expression decreased, the Bax protein expression increased, and the apoptosis index increased in the model group, showing statistical difference (P <0.01). Compared with the model group, the Bcl-2 protein expression increased in the three YR treated groups (P <0.01, P <0.05). The Bax protein expression level decreased in the high and middle dose YR groups (P <0. 01, P <0. 05). The apoptosis index decreased in the middle dose YR group (P <0.01).
CONCLUSIONYR could inhibit the apoptosis of spermatogenic cells through regulating the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax protein in the testis.

30%-50% patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)will occur cerebral metastasis in the course of their illnesses.NSCLC with brain metastases is one of the difficulties in cancer treatment. Treatment measures include surgery,radiotherapy,chemotherapy,biological targeted therapy and so on.The new prognostic scoring system is recommended to predict the prognosis of patients.Individualized treatment methods should be chosen according to prognostic score.

BACKGROUND: The initial stability of implantable distractor depends on the stress distribution of bone-distractor interface. The understanding of the biomechanical change in initial stage can improve the clinical success ratio of implantable distractor used in alveolar crest.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the influence of bone quality on stress distribution and deformation in initial distraction stage.METHODS: Four three-dimensional models with 10 079-11 456 cells and 17 299-20 101 nodes were prepared by finite element methods (11 mm in length and 3.7-4.1 mm diameter). Implantable distractor was embedded in a segment of mandible. The elastic modulus of cancellous bone and the thickness of cortical bone, stress and deformation of bones and distractor were calculated.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The highest stress in the bone was concentrated in transportable section and the maximum deformation of transportable section was observed at the edge of the cortical bone, both of which were increased with bone quality decreased. The subsidence of distractor was observed with bone quality decreased. Bone quality influenced the initial stability and the result of the implantal distraction. The decrease of bone elastic modulus would increase the failure risk of distraction osteogenisis.

Objective:To investigate the expression and relationship of differentiated embryo-chondrocyte expressed gene1(DEC1) and the signal tranducers and activator of transcription3 (STAT3) in gastric cancer tissues,and the significance of the two genes in gastric carcinogenesis. Methods:Immunohistochemistry method of SP was adopted to discover the expression of DEC1 and STAT3 in 59 gastric cancer tissues,19 normal tissues distant from tumor were regarded as control. Results:The positive expression rate of DEC1 in gastric cancer tissues was 71.2%(42/59),which was significantly higher than that in normal para-cancer tissues(26.3%)(P0.05). STAT3 expression was associated with TNM staging,invasion depth,lymph node involvement and tumor grade (P0.05). Conclusions:DEC1 expression was higher in gastric cancer tissues than that in normal para-cancer tissues distant from tumor,and was correlated with STAT3 in gastric cancer. DEC1 and STAT3 are both transcription factors,therefore the co-activation of DEC1 and STAT3 may play an important role in the carcinogenesis and development of gastric cancer.
