Common spatial pattern (CSP) is a very popular method for spatial filtering to extract the features from electroencephalogram (EEG) signals, but it may cause serious over-fitting issue. In this paper, after the extraction and recognition of feature, we present a new way in which the recognition results are fused to overcome the over-fitting and improve recognition accuracy. And then a new framework for EEG recognition is proposed by using CSP to extract features from EEG signals, using linear discriminant analysis (LDA) classifiers to identify the user's mental state from such features, and using Choquet fuzzy integral to fuse classifiers results. Brain-computer interface (BCI) competition 2005 data sets IVa was used to validate the framework. The results demonstrated that it effective ly improved recognition and to some extent overcome the over-fitting problem of CSP. It showed the effectiveness of this framework for dealing with EEG.

Objective To investigate the inhibition rate of cell proliferation, cell apoptosis rate and their effects on the cell cycle proceeding of the SSMC7721 cell line when 5-FU combined with thermotherapy is induced into the cells, and then provide theoretical bases to the combined therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods The inhibition rate of cell proliferation was detected by the MTT under different conditions, the cell cycle proceeding and the cell apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry and the subcellular structure was detected by the electronmicroscope. Results The cell inhibition rate of the thermotherapy group, 5-FU group and the combinedgroup were 18.4% ,28. 3% and 52. 7% ,respectively. The inhibition rates in the latter two groups were significantly different to the thermotherapy group. The results of flow cytometry showed that the cell numbers increased in G1 stage decreased in S stage,and increased in G2/M stage;the cell apoptosis rate increased. There was significant difference between different groups(P < 0.01 or P <0.05). The results of the electronmicroscop showed that the nuclear chromatins agglutinated in the borderline and the mitochondriums became swelled. Conclusions The 5-FU combined with thermotherapy could significantly improve the inhibition rate of cell proliferation, inhibit the cell cycle proceeding from G1 stage to S stage, and induce cells apoptosis and change the subcellular structures in the SSMC7721 cell line.

Due to the insufficient education of medical ethics and tending to medical moral educa-tion, the residents lack the ability to make ethical decisions. Therefore, we applied Four Topics method in the clinical ethics training of residents. The clinical ethics training was divided into three stages, and each stage had different training content and objectives. Dongyang People's Hospital adopted the form of lectures and panel discussions. During the group discussion, the group leader was in charge of case preparation, which came from clinical practice, and then all members applied the Four Topics method to analyze and discuss the ethical conflicts, and make the ethical decision. Through this process, residents' ability to solve ethical problems in clinical practice was enhanced.

Objective:Our study aims to predict acute kidney injury (AKI) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) by establishing a random forest model.Methods:By using the clinical database from affiliated Dongyang Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, a total of 1 363 AMI cases were included. Then, 75% of participants were analyzed as training subsets and the remaining 25% were testing subsets. The CARET package in R was used to filter variables and build random forest. The prediction ability of established model was evaluated by specificity, sensitivity, accuracy, relative operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) in testing subsets. In addition, the performance of random forest was compared with other 3 commonly used machine learning algorithms (Artificial Neural Network, Naive Bayes, and Support Vector Machine).Results:In this study, 30 variables including the demographic information, risk factors of cardiovascular disease, vital signs at admission, laboratory tests were identified and used to establish our random forest prediction model. The area under the curve of the testing subsets ROC was 0.893. The specificity and sensitivity of prediction model was 0.791 and 0.866, respectively. And the first creatinine, first blood urea nitrogen, and D-dimer after admission, age, mechanical ventilation were the top-five factors in this model. After comparing various machine learning algorithms, random forest model had a better performance.Conclusion:The random forest model would be used to predict the occurrence of AMI with AKI.
