1.Patent information-based analysis of EEG technology maturity and network analysis of EEG technology
Chinese Journal of Medical Library and Information Science 2016;25(4):7-12
The life cycle, evolution and trend of EEG technology were studied by plotting its S curve model ac-cording to its maturity theory with Derwent Innovation Index Database-covered EEG technology patent data as a sample. Cluster analysis and strategic coordinate analysis according to the co-classification network of Derwent pa-tent classification code showed the linkage relationship and evolution trend in different fields of EEG technology. The frequency and centrality of EEG technology were analyzed according to the co-word network of Derwent manual code in order to identify the distribution and hotspots of research on EEG technology.
2.Technological assessment of transcranial magnetic stimulation based on literature and patent information
Military Medical Sciences 2017;41(3):222-226
Objective To assess the life cycle, focus of research and developments of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) from the perspective of technology management and information research.Methods Based on data sources from the Web of Science Core Collection and Derwent Innovations Index,such research methods as statistical analysis and social network analysis were adopted.The whole dataset was loaded into Bicomb, Loglet Lab and UCINET for further bibliometric analysis and network drawing.Results and Conclusion TMS research is currently quite active.The technology trajectory is in the second phase, having developed from the stage of growth to the stage of maturity.Network structure of TMS is taking shape, and there is still the lack of core technology themes.The present research focus of TMS will provide strong and firm support for its future medical application.In the next phase, research on the mechanism and neurobiological effects of TMS will be a hot spot.For practical assessment of specific technology, we should strengthen data mining and analysis, while bringing in the expert consultation method.

This article reports a case of hyperthyroidism complicated with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis(CVST). A 33-year-old woman patient was admitted to the Department of Endocrinology due to hyperthyroidism. She developed convulsions of the legs, unconsciousness, and " epileptic" seizures in the early morning of the next day and was transferred to the Department of Neurology. The patient′s clinical manifestations and laboratory tests suggested hyperthyroidism, Graves′ disease complicated with CVST formation, internal jugular vein thrombosis, and venous acute cerebral infarction. After standard treatment for hyperthyroidism, anticoagulation, and reduction in intracranial pressure were given, the patient′s condition improved. After 3 months of follow-up, the patient had a good prognosis. Until now, 41 patients with hyperthyroidism complicated with CVST have been described in case reports. For patients with hyperthyroidism presenting with headaches, especially those with severe neurological symptoms such as epilepsy or hemiplegia, clinicians should be vigilant and conduct appropriate imaging evaluations to assess the possibility of CVST. Once the diagnosis of CVST is confirmed, treatment for both hyperthyroidism and CVST should be initiated simultaneously to achieve a favorable prognosis.
