In this paper, the Fourier transform based minimum mean square error (FT-based MMSE) method is used to calculate the regional cerebral blood volume (rCBV) in magnetic resonance (MR) perfusion imaging, and the method is improved to handle the existing noise in the imaging process. In the experiments with signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 50 dB, the rCBV values were compared with the results using MMSE method. The effects of different SNRs on the estimation of rCBV were analyzed. The experimental results showed that MMSE was a simple way to filter the measurement noise, and could calculate rCBV accurately. Compared with other existing methods, the present method is not sensitive to environment, and furthermore, it is suitable to deal with the perfusion images acquired from the environment with larger SNR.

Objective To explore the nursing intervention on pregnancy rate and endocrine indexes in obese patients with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)combined with infertility.Meth-ods 40 infertile patients with polycystic ovary syndrome were randomly divided into control group and observation group.Control group was given the therapy of medication induced ovulation while the observation group was given nursing intervention before treatment for four months in advance. The pregnancy rate and endocrine index were compared.Results The pregnancy rate in the ob-servation group was 45%(9 /20)which was significantly higher than 15%(3 /20)in the control group.The difference was statistical significant(P <0.05).Through nursing interventions,obesi-ty,polycystic ovary syndrome,infertility endocrine indexes including testosterone (T),luteinizing hormone (LH),LH /FSH and insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR)had changed compared with the condition before.The difference was significant.Conclusion The systematic nursing inter-vention is significant on polycystic ovary syndrome,particularly for obese women with polycystic o-vary syndrome.It could increase pregnancy rates,endocrine metabolism,lifestyle and mental health,so it is worthy of promotion.

Objective To explore the perioperative clinical treatment of thyroid cancer patients with heart disease. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 39 thyroid cancer patients with heart disease admitted to the Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University from April 2014 to February 2018, including 25 males and 14 females, the age ranged from 59 to 75 years, with an average age of 67.3 ± 6.2 years. Perioperative clinical monitoring indicators included cardiac ultrasound left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), degree of vascular stenosis revealed by coronary CT, hypersensitive troponin I (TNI), b-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), fibrinogen degradation products, and coagulation indexes. This panel of patients comprised 26 cases with 50％ ≤LVEF<60％, 10 cases with 40％ ≤ LVEF<50％, 3 cases with 36％≤LVEF<40％, 27 cases with 0≤BNP<100 ng/L, 7 cases with 100≤BNP<400 ng/L, and 5 cases with 400≤BNP<700 ng/L. Coronary CT showed no coronary artery stenosis>75％. The vascular graft was patent and the coronary artery after stenting was unobstructed. For 3 patients with LVEF<40％ and 5 patients with BNP>400 ng/L,cardiotonic,diuretic,and nutritional myocardial therapy were used for 1 week. SPSS 17.0 software was used to analyze the data. Results All 39 patients successfully completed the operation under general anesthesia,including 32 cases of total thyroidectomy,7 cases of glandular lobe and isthmic resection,and 40 cases of lateral neck dissection. One patient developed heart failure three days after surgery and was discharged after two weeks of treatment . No other cardiac related events,cerebrovascular and pulmonary thrombosis occurred during the perioperative period. The anesthesia preparation time was significant different between the group with 0≤BNP<100 ng/L and 50％≤LVEF<60％ and the group with 0≤BNP<100 ng / L and 36％≤LVEF<50％. Conclusions Multi-indicators were utilized to adequately assess cardiac function before surgery. According to the results of cardiac ultrasound and coronary CT examination, the corresponding treatment should be conducted to improve the cardiac function. After the perioperative risk assessment and management of thyroid cancer patients with heart disease,standardized thyroid cancer surgery can be performed safely.
