Objective To study the phase correlation of cutaneous multichannel impedance measurements and the contractions, peristalsis of stomach and the conduction properties in space.Methods A spiral gastric body model was rotated to simulate shrinkage and creep of the stomach.In order to verify the feasibility and validity of the multichannel impedance gastric dynamic measurement, experiments with emulation of multichannel impedance gastric motility measuring principle were conducted through three-dimensional simulation on the electrical characteristics of gastric body model in saline tank simulator.Results The emulation results showed that the change of epigastric current density and potential distribution is consistent with the course of moving from top to bottom when lateral edge of model (namely the intumescent location when the stomach is full) after detecting electrodes in sequence.Meanwhile, the measurement voltage wave forms clearly showed the contraction location of stomach after the model rotating for three cycles in a row, and the phase relationship between adjacent measurement channels was also measured.The sixty seconds data acquired by the experiment device proved that voltage wave form of three measurement channels corresponded to the phase relationship of movement status of the gastric body model.Conclusions Cutaneous multichannel wave forms prove a cyclical movement of stomach, and phase difference among the multichannel signals relating to speed of peristaltic wave, position of the measuring electrodes and channel spacing, etc.This study provides simulation and experimental basis for explanation of quantitative study of conduction properties in space and phase relationship between the results of surface multichannel impedance measurements and the contractions, peristalsis of stomach.

Objective To verify the effectiveness of electrical impedance tomography (EIT) with multi-layer electrodes in gastric emptying measurement by simulation experiments using EIT with three-layer electrodes.Methods Firstly,EIT system with three-layer electrodes and gastric emptying measurement simulation equipment was designed and constructed to simulate gastric emptying process and obtain EIT reconstruction images.Secondly,the region where the electrical characteristic of gastric changes was selected as region of interest.Finally,the relative impedance change rate in region of interest for every image obtained from all three layers was consecutively recorded,then the gastric emptying curve was formed and gastric emptying time was calculated.Results There are obvious differences among the sharp of impedance change curves of interested region for three layers,and the gastric emptying time and process of each layer is also different from one another.It is suggested that the passing path and emptying manner of food in gastric emptying process reflected by EIT images varied from layer to layer.Therefore,the necessity and feasibility of using EIT with three-layer electrodes in gastric emptying measurement study is verified.Conclusions EIT with three-layer electrodes can provide more abundant information of gastric motility function associated with gastric emptying pathology and physiology state.It is likely to be a noninvasive,convenient and effective imaging method for the detection and evaluation research on gastric emptying and gastric motility.

Objective:To evaluate early corneal biomechanical change, safety and effectiveness after small-incision lenticule extraction combined with ultraviolet A corneal collagen cross-linking (SMILE-CXL) for myopic eyes and compare with SMILE.Methods:A non-randomized controlled clinical study was performed.Forty-four myopic eyes of 25 patients were included in Hankou Aier Eye Hospital from December 2017 to July 2018.SMILE-CXL or SMILE was carried out for 22 eyes of 12 patients or 22 eyes of 13 patients, respectively, based on the normal posterior surface manifestation of Belin by Pentacam tomography or not.The posterior surface manifestation of Belin was normal in the SMILE group, and the posterior surface of Belin was yellow or red with Corvis biomechanical index and tomographic biomechanical index<0.3 (except keratoconus) in the SMILE-CXL group.The refractive diopter of the eyes was detected before and 6 months after surgery, including spherical diopter, cylindrical diopter and spherical equivalent (SE) with a comprehensive refractometer.The corneal biomechanical parameters of the eyes were detected before and 6 months after surgery with a Scheimpflug-based dynamic tonometry (Corvis ST). The safety index, a ratio of postoperative mean best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) to preoperative mean BCVA, and efficacy index, a ratio of postoperative uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) to preoperative BCVA, were compared between SMILE-CXL group and SMILE group.BCVA and UCVA were examined using standard chart and converted to logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution (LogMAR) units.This protocol complied with the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by an Ethics Committee of Hankou Aier Eye Hospital (No.WHS2017052701). Written informed consent was obtained from each patient prior to entering into the cohort.Results:The postoperative UCVA of the eyes in both groups was more than 1.0.There were no significant differences in safety index, efficacy index and SE change between the SMILE-CXL group and SMILE group (all at P≥0.05). At 6 months after surgery, the values of second applanation time (A2T), time from the start until the highest concavity (HC-Time) and DA ratio 2 mm were significantly increased in comparison with before operation in both SMILE-CXL group and SMILE group (all at P<0.05). The changes of A2T, HC-Time and DA ratio 2 mm in the SMILE-CXL group were significantly lowered than those in the SMILE group at the sixth month after surgery ( P=0.001, 0.001, 0.036). The deformation amplitude, maximum corneal velocity during the first applanation (Vin), distance between both non-deformed peaks and integrated radius during the maximum depression were significantly increased, and the central curvature radius at highest concavity, cord length of first applanation, cord length of second applanation, Ambrósio's relational thickness horizontal, stiffness parameter applanation 1 and biomechanical intraocular pressure during the maximum depression were significantly lower at the sixth month after surgery than those before surgery (all at P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the parameters mentioned above between the two groups (all at P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with SMILE alone, SMILE-CXL shows a comparable safety and efficacy, and better corneal biomechanical properties.
