The interface software between HIS and MIS of social medical insurance makes it possible to interchange data between the two systems and apply HIS to medical insurance management. Usually, the social medical insurance center offers a standard method of interface, which is called the upper interface. The interface between the upper interface and HIS, called the lower interface, requires specific design based on specific HIS. This article discusses a case in which a HIS client computer can transmit data to the server at the insurance center and receive real-time processing results. The upper interface consists of two dynamic link libraries (DLL). Three tasks have to be accomplished to program the lower interface, which are to create a table in HIS database and arrange every item in HIS price list with its corresponding item in the insurance list, to create tables or fields in HIS database to store proper data for medical insurance business, and to design a special HIS application module and alter several existing modules for medical insurance business. There are some key points in programming such as invoking a function in the DLL properly, gathering data to form a character storing variables for the function and parsing the returned character string to extract result data.

A QRS complex detection algorithm based on empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and adaptive windowing technique is proposed in this paper. In this algorithm we mainly used Hilbert-Huang transform to propose EMD method suitable for QRS complex detection, with which the 30th signal in sddb database and the 208th signal in mit-db database could be processed, and then obtained R wave detection results. At the same time, Q and S points' detection technique was analyzed with adaptive windowing technique. The detection results, through proceeding R wave detection on part data of MIT/BIT arrhythmia database, showed that the proposed algorithm in this paper had a very good detection effect, and that its average correct detection rate of R wave reached 99.62%, its average sensitivity of QRS complex was 98.91%, and the corresponding average specificity was 99.35%.

Objective:To investigate the changes of occlusal delay time, percentage of occlusal force and patients′ subjective satisfaction of masticatory function for single implant crown in one year after the application of space reserved occlusion design. To provide data support and suggestions for clinical occlusion design.Methods:Patients who had received single posterior dental implant restoration in Department of Prosthodontics, Capital Medical University School of Stomatology from January 2019 to December 2019 were selected. At 0.5, 3, 6 and 12 months after restoration, the T-scan Ⅲ occlusal analyzer was used to detect and record the initial occlusal contact time of the natural tooth and implanted single crown, the occlusal force percentage of single implant prosthesis and corresponding tooth on the contralateral side (control teeth) on the contralateral side (control teeth) were also recorded. Subjective satisfaction with the masticatory function of the implants was recorded using visual analogue scale (VAS). The changes of occlusal delay time (the difference of the initial occlusal time between implant restoration and the natural teeth), percentage of occlusal force and patients' subjective feeling with time were analyzed. All data were analyzed by repeated measurement analysis of variance, bilatteral P<0.01 was considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 48 patients aged (36.8±8.4) years (23 males, 25 females, aged 23-50 years) were recruited. The occlusal delay time at 0.5 months was 0.15 (0.08, 0.20) s, at 3 months was 0.11 (0.06, 0.16) s, at 6 months was 0.07 (0.03, 0.13) s and at 12 months was 0.06 (0.03, 0.10) s. The occlusal delay time was shortened at every two time points, and the occlusal force percentage of the implant crown increased significantly. The percentage of occlusal force of implant prosthesis at 0.5 months was (7.7±4.8)%, at 3 months was (10.6±5.9)%, at 6 months was (12.3±6.2)% and at 12 months was (13.2±6.7)%. The most significant change was during the period of 0.5-3 months. At 0.5 months, the occlusal force of implant prosthesis was significantly lower than that of control teeth (14.3±6.5)% ( P<0.01). The VAS score at 0.5 months was (7.06±1.64) and was (8.71±0.74) at 12 months. The score was increased and the difference was statistically significant from 3 month to 12 month ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The change of occlusal force percentage of single posterior dental implant is most obvious within 3 months after restoration. The occlusal condition should be reexamined and adjust occlusal after 3 months of implant restoration as appropriate.

Objective:To evaluate the association between the number of teeth missed and the prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in adults.Methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out in 26 983 adults from Tianjin Chronic Low-grade Systemic Inflammation and Health Cohort Study. The number of teeth missed (excluding third molars) was recorded and classified into four categories: 0, 1-, 3- and ≥6. NAFLD was diagnosed by at least two liver ultrasonography examinations. Adjusted multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to access the association between the number of missed teeth and NAFLD in adults.Results:The overall prevalence of NAFLD was 7 270 and the number of the subjects with at least one tooth missed was 9 667. The multivariable-adjusted ORs (95% CI) of NAFLD across the categories of tooth missing (0, 1-, 3- and ≥6) were as follows: 1.00, 1.04 (0.93-1.15), 1.08 (0.93-1.26) and 1.38 (1.09-1.76) (trend test P=0.030) in males; 1.00, 0.96 (0.82-1.12), 1.11 (0.91-1.35) and 1.22 (0.90-1.64) (trend test P=0.450) in females. Conclusion:The number of missed teeth was positively associated with a higher prevalence rate of NAFLD in males with over 6 teeth missed, but not in females.

Objective:To observe the short-term effects of intravitreal injection of aflibercept (IVA) for initial treatment and dressing change on exudative age-related macular degeneration (eAMD).Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From June 2018 to February 2021, forty-nine eAMD eyes of 38 patients who underwent IVA treatment in Department of Ophthalmology of Central Theater Command Hospital of People’s Liberation Army were included in the study. Among them, there were 24 males with 29 eyes and 14 females with 20 eyes; the average age was 66.82±8.71 years. All affected eyes were treated with IVA. The initial loading dose was 2.0 mg, which was injected once a month for 3 consecutive months, followed by monthly review and treatment as needed. Of the 49 eyes, 26 eyes were initially treated (initial treatment group), they were diagnosed within 3 months of the first onset and followed by IVA treatment, and no intraocular drugs and surgery were performed from the onset to the first diagnosis. Twenty-three eyes were treated with drug exchange therapy (dressing change group), they received intravitreal injection of ranibizumab and/or conbercept more than 4 times 6 months before the replacement therapy, during which there was persistent interlaminar cystoid edema and/or subretinal fluid (SRF) in the macular area and no improvement in pigment epithelial detachment (PED). Before IVA treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), foveal thickness (CMT), PED height (PEDH), and PED volume (PEDV) of the two groups of eyes before IVA treatment ( P>0.05). The same equipment and methods as before treatment were used for related examinations, and the changes of BCVA, CMT, PEDH, PEDV and complications of the two groups of eyes were recorded in 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment. The comparison of BCVA, CMT, PEDH, and PEDV between the two groups were used repeated measures analysis of variance. Results:Six months after treatment, the number of IVA injections in the eyes of the initial treatment group and dressing change group were 4.15±0.73 and 4.39±0.72 times, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( t=-1.141, P=0.260). The BCVA, CMT, PEDH, and PEDV of the the initial treatment group ( F=5.345, 22.995, 6.764, 5.425) and the dressing change group ( F=12.519, 15.576, 8.843, 9.406) were significantly improved compared before treatment with 1, 3, and 6 months. All were statistically significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in BCVA, CMT, PEDH, and PEDV between the initial treatment group and the dressing group at each time point after treatment ( F=1.741, 0.069, 0.876, 3.455; P>0.05). During the follow-up period, none of the affected eyes had complications such as persistent intraocular pressure increase, endophthalmitis, and retinal pigment epithelial tear. Conclusions:IVA can improve eyesight of patients with eAMD and reduce CMT, PEDH, and PEDV. The initial treatment and dressing change have the same effect.

Objective To observe the value of zero echo time(ZTE)3.0T MRI for detecting lung cancer nodules.Methods Totally 126 lung cancer patients(176 lung nodules)were prospectively enrolled and underwent 3.0T MR axial lung scanning,including T1-volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination(VIBE),T2-BLADE,T2-half-Fourier acquisition single-shot turbo spin-echo(HASTE)and ZTE sequences.The consistency between ZTE MRI and previous CT for displaying characteristics of pulmonary nodules was analyzed,and the sensitivity of different MR sequences for detecting pulmonary nodules were observed.Results Among 176 pulmonary nodules showed on CT,ZTE MRI detected 140 and missed 36 ones.The consistency between ZTE MRI and CT for displaying the maximum diameter and actual maximum diameter of pulmonary nodules were both good(ICC=0.954,0.943,both P＜0.001),and the difference between ZTE MRI and CT was small.The consistency between ZTE MRI and CT for displaying tracheal vascular bundles,pleural indentation and internal bronchial inflation signs were all good(Kappa=0.894,0.912,0.917),while for displaying the type and shape of nodules were both moderate(Kappa=0.661,0.501).The sensitivity of ZTE MRI for detecting pulmonary nodules was higher than that of other individual MR sequences(all P＜0.05),of combination of ZTE and T2 BLADE was higher than that of other sequence combinations(all P＜0.05).Conclusion ZTE 3.0T MRI could be used to detect lung cancer nodules,which was superior to conventional MRI.Combination of ZTE 3.0T MRI with T2-BLADE could improve the sensitivity for detecting pulmonary nodules.

Objective:To investigate the application value of dynamic scintigraphy single-photonemission computed tomography (SPECT) 99m-technetium-galactosyl human serum albumin diethy-lenetriamine pentaacetic ( 99Tc m-GSA) scintigraphy in assessing liver function of perihilar cholangio-carcinoma after portal vein embolization (PVE). Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 16 patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma who underwent 99Tc m-GSA scintigraphy after PVE in Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital Affiliated to Tsinghua University from October 2019 to January 2021 were collected. There were 8 males and 8 females, aged from 46 to 78 years, with a median age of 64 years. Observation indicators: (1) liver volume after PVE; (2) liver function after PVE; (3) typical case analysis. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Count data were represented as absolute numbers or percentages. Comparison of data of the same patient was analyzed using the paired t test. Results:(1) Liver volume after PVE:the morphological liver volume and functional liver volume for the 16 patients were (1 420±211)mL and (389±112)mL. The morphological liver volume and functional liver volume were (636±143)mL and (234±106)mL of planning reserved lobe, (784±210)mL and (151±106)mL of planning resection lobe, respectively. The functional liver density (FLD) of planning reserved lobe and planning resection lobe were 0.36±0.12 and 0.19±0.11, showing a significant difference between them ( t=3.794, P<0.05). The planning resection rate of morpholo-gical liver volume and functional liver volume were 37.8%±0.6% and 54.8%±0.2%, showing a significant difference between them ( t=?3.720, P<0.05). (2) Liver function after PVE: 13 of 16 patients completed the indocyanine green (ICG) test, and 3 patients didn't complete the ICG test due to intolerance. For the 13 patients undergoing ICG test, the total ICG-K value was (0.15±0.03)/minutes, and the ICG-K value of planning reserved lobe was (0.07±0.02)/minutes. The total GSA-K value of 16 patients was (0.14±0.10)/minutes, and the GSA-K value of planning reserved lobe was (0.08±0.06)/minutes. (3) Typical case analysis: a 46-year-old male patient with type Bismuth Ⅲa perihilar cholangiocarcinoma was planned to perform perihilar hepatectomy combined with right hepatectomy. The imaging evaluation showed that the volume of reserved liver lobe accounted for 27% of the total liver volume. The serum total bilirubin was 256 μmol/L when admitted and decreased to 118 μmol/L on the day 5 after percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage. The right anterior and right posterior branches of PVE was performed. SPECT 99Tc m-GSA examination was performed on the day 37 after PVE. The morphological liver volume was 559 mL of planned reserved lobe and 1 461 mL of the whole liver. The planned morphological liver volume resection rate was 61.7%. ICG-K was 0.12/minutes of the whole liver, and 0.04/minutes of planned reserved lobe. The functional liver volume was 134 mL of planned reserved lobe and 309 mL of the whole liver. The planned resection rate of functional liver volume was 56.6%. The GSA-K was 0.20/minutes of the whole liver and 0.09/minutes of planned reserved lobe. R 0 resection was achieved in perihilar hepatectomy combined with right hepatectomy and no liver failure occurred. The survival time of patients was 11 months. Conclusion:Dynamic SPECT 99Tc m-GSA scintigraphy can effectively evaluate the regional function of the reserved liver lobe in patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma after PVE.

Objective:To observe the efficacy of intravitreal injection of aflibercept (IVA) in the treatment of exudative age-related macular degeneration (wAMD) combined with RPE detachment (PED).Methods:A retrospective case study. From June 2018 to June 2019, 32 eyes (overall group) of 27 wAMD patients with PED were included in the study. All eyes were treated with IVA. The initial loading dose was 2.0 mg, which was injected once a month for 2 consecutive months and and then use a PRN regimen after evaluation. According to the maximum height of PED (PEDH) 2 months after treatment, the overall group was divided into the response group and the partial response group, with 20 (62.50%) and 12 (37.50%) eyes respectively. The response group: PEDH decreased by ≥25% compared with before treatment. The partial response: PEDH decreased by <25%. The macular fovea was scanned with the 3D-OCT 2000 instrument from Topcon (Japan). PEDH, PED area (PEDA), PED volume (PEDV), and macular foveal retinal thickness (CMT) were measured. There was no significant difference in BCVA, CMT, PEDH, PEDA, and PEDV of the eyes in the response group and the partial response group ( t=-0.791, -0.488, -0.900, -1.130, -0.400; P=0.435, 0.630, 0.380, 0.270, 0.690). The changes of BCVA, PEDH, PEDA, PEDV, CMT in each group were observed before treatment and 1, 2, 4, and 6 months after treatment. The comparison of BCVA and PED-related indicators and CMT before and after treatment were performed by repeated measures analysis of variance. Results:Compared with before treatment, the BCVA, CMT, PEDH, PEDA and PEDV of the eyes in the overall group, the response group, and the partial response group were obviously improved after treatment. Among them, there were statistically significant differences in all indicators of the overall group and the response group ( FBCVA=5.871, 3.798; P=0.001, 0.019. FCMT=24.526, 14.109; P=0.000, 0.001. FPEDH=12.569, 12.091; P=0.000, 0.000. FPEDA=7.534, 6.286; P=0.000, 0.000. FPEDV=5.139, 4.104; P=0.004, 0.014); there was no statistically significant difference in PED-related indicators in the partial response group ( FPEDH=3.210, P=0.054; FPEDA=1.913, P=0.183; FPEDV=3.500, P=0.051), the difference between BCVA and CMT was statistically significant ( FBCVA=3.033, P=0.027; FCMT=11.140, P=0.001). Two months after treatment, the eye number of PEDH reduction rate <25%, 25%-<50%, 50%-<75%, and ≥75% were 12 (37.50%), 8 (25.00%), 9 (28.13%), and 3 (9.38%) in the overall group, respectively. And PED in one eye (3.13%) was completely eliminated. Six months after treatment, the proportion was 13 (40.23%), 5 (15.63%), 7 (21.88%) and 7 (21.88%), respectively, among which 4 eyes (12.50%) with PED were completely resolved. Conclusions:Aflibercept treatment of wAMD combined with PED can restore its anatomical indicators and improve visual function of patients in a short time; the efficacy of PED in the PRN stage is related to the efficacy of the loading dose stage.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of tibial transverse transport (TTT) combined with modified neurolysis in treatment of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) through a prospective randomized controlled study. METHODS: The patients with DFU and diabetic peripheral neuropathy, who were admitted between February 2020 and February 2022, were selected as the research objects, of which 31 cases met the selection criteria and were included in the study. The patients were divided into two groups by random number table method. The 15 patients in the trial group were treated with TTT combined with modified neurolysis, and the 16 patients in the control group received treatment with TTT alone. There was no significant difference in gender, age, duration of DFU, ulcer area, Wagner classification, as well as preoperative foot skin temperature, visual analogue scale (VAS) score, ankle-brachial index (ABI), motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) of the common peroneal nerve, MNCV of the tibial nerve, MNCV of the deep peroneal nerve, two-point discrimination (2-PD) of heel, and cross-sectional area (CSA) of the common peroneal nerve between the two groups ( P>0.05). The time for ulcer healing, foot skin temperature, VAS scores, ABI, 2-PD of heel, and CSA of the common peroneal nerve before operation and at 6 and 12 months after operation were recorded and compared between groups. The differences in MNCV of the common peroneal nerve, MNCV of the tibial nerve, and MNCV of the deep peroneal nerve between pre-operation and 12 months after operation were calculated. RESULTS: All patients in both groups were followed up 12-24 months (mean, 13.9 months). The surgical incisions in both groups healed by first intention and no needle tract infections occurred during the bone transport phase. Ulcer wounds in both groups healed successfully, and there was no significant difference in the healing time ( P>0.05). During the follow-up, there was no ulcer recurrences. At 12 months after operation, the MNCV of the common peroneal nerve, the MNCV of the tibial nerve, and the MNCV of the deep peroneal nerve in both groups accelerated when compared to preoperative values ( P<0.05). Furthermore, the trial group exhibited a greater acceleration in MNCV compared to the control group, and the difference was significant ( P<0.05). The foot skin temperature, VAS score, ABI, 2-PD of heel, and CSA of the common peroneal nerve at 6 and 12 months after operation significantly improved when compared with those before operation in both groups ( P<0.05). The 2-PD gradually improved over time, showing significant difference ( P<0.05). The 2-PD of heel and VAS score of the trial group were superior to the control group, and the differences were significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in ABI, foot skin temperature, and CSA of the common peroneal nerve between groups after operation ( P>0.05). CONCLUSION Compared with TTT alone, the TTT combined with modified neurolysis for DFU can simultaneously solve both microcirculatory disorders and nerve compression, improve the quality of nerve function recovery, and enhance the patient's quality of life.
