1.Medical image processing based on wavelet characteristics and edge blur detection.
Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2014;31(3):493-498
To solve the problems of noise interference and edge signal weakness for the existing medical image, we used two-dimensional wavelet transform to process medical images. Combined the directivity of the image edges and the correlation of the wavelet coefficients, we proposed a medical image processing algorithm based on wavelet characteristics and edge blur detection. This algorithm improved noise reduction capabilities and the edge effect due to wavelet transformation and edge blur detection. The experimental results showed that directional correlation improved edge based on wavelet transform fuzzy algorithm could effectively reduce the noise signal in the medical image and save the image edge signal. It has the advantage of the high-definition and de-noising ability.

2.Role of immunoglobulin in treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with fungal infection
Chinese Journal of Infection Control 2014;(5):281-283
Objective To explore the clinical effect of intravenous immunoglobulin(IVIG)on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)and fungal infection.Methods Seventy-two COPD patients with fungal infection were randomly and equally divided into conventional and intervention group.Patients in conventional group were treated with common schedule for COPD plus antifungal agents;patients in intervention group received 1 0 g/d IVIG besides routine therapy.Length of hospital stay and prognosis were recorded,and therapeutic effectiveness were evaluated. Results The effectiveness rate of intervention group was significantly higher than that of conventional group ([88.89%,32/36]vs [66.67%,24/36]);the average length of hospital stay was significantly shorter than conven-tional group ([12.62±7.51]d vs [20.81±6.92]d),and mortality was lower than conventional group ([5.56%, 2/36]vs [22.22%,8/36]),the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion IVIG for treating COPD with invasive pulmonary fungal infection can improve therapeutic efficacy,shorten length of hospital stay and decrease mortality rate.

Objective To study the location of coronary chronic total occlusion and the correlatin between coronary chronic total occlusion and coronary collateral. Methods SPSS was used to analyze the general clinical and coronary angiographic data of 113 patients with coronary bypass surgery performed. Results There were 61 patients with coronary chronic total occlusion. 71 sites of coronary chronic total occlusions were observed by coronary angiography, of which, one was located in left main coronary artery (0 9%), 17 in proximal left anterior descending artery (15 0%) , 9 in middle left anterior descending artery (8 0%), 3 in distal left anterior descending artery (2 7%), 5 in proximal left circumflex artery (4 4%), 6 in middle left circumflex artery (5 3%), 3 in distal left circumflex artery (2 7%), 9 in proximal right coronary artery (8 0% ), 10 in middle right coronary artery (8 8% ) and 8 in distal right coronary artery (7 1% ). There were 72 patients with coronary collateral. The coefficient of correlation between collateral and coronary chronic total occlusion was 0 707 (P=0 000 ).Conclusions Coronary chronic total occlusion is frequently located in proximal, middle left anterior descending artery and right coronary artery. There is significantly positive correlation between collateral and coronary chronic total occlusion.
5.Assessing stroke patients with the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health core sets
Chinese Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2009;31(11):748-752
Objective To investigate the functional states of stroke patients using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) core sets for stroke. Methods Fifty in-patients with stroke participated in this study. Twenty-five patients less than one month after a stroke were assigned to the acute group, and another 25 patients with more than one month since their stroke were assigned to the sub-acute and chronic group. All the patients were assessed using the Glasgow coma scale, Rankin grading and the Barthel index. The ICF core set for stroke assessment was also used with both groups. The data was analyzed by using a Chi squared frequency test. Results Rankin grades and Barthel indices were significantly different between the two groups, and the functional states in the acute group were better than those in the sub-acute and chronic group. Some of the items, such as consciousness state, functions of structures adjoining the eyes, hearing, substitutive sound, accessory respiration, temperature regulation and protection function of the skin had no significant difference between the groups. The number of patients suffering from disorders of joint motion, joint stability, muscle endurance and control of voluntary movement was significantly greater in the sub-acute and chronic group than in the acute group. Both groups were influenced to different degrees by most of the environmental factors. Conclusion The ICF core sets correctly indicated joint motion, joint stability, muscle endurance and control of voluntary movement difficulties of stroke patients.

Objective To study the treatment of renal artery stenting for patients with coronary artery heart disease and renal artery stenosis who need coronary atery bypass graft (CABG) and its effect on preventing acute renal dysfunction after CABG. Methods From April 2001 to January 2005, renal artery stenting was carried out in 82 patients (a total of 104 renal arteries) with CHD and renal artery stenosis who needed CABG. Among the 82 patients, 77 of them accompanied with hypertension and 21 of them had abnormal renal function. Heparin was selected as anticoagulant other than anti-platelet drug and low molecular weight heparin before stenting. Results All of the stents were successfully implanted in 104 renal lesions without complication. Blood creatinine (Cr) reduced in 9 patients with renal dysfunction by the time of discharge. Three patients had blood Cr increased provisionally after stenting. Four patients with normal pre-operational renal function showed transient increase in blood Cr after stenting. All of the patients with transient blood Cr elevation had bilateral renal artery stenosis. Conclusion Renal artery stenosis may cause acute renal failure after CABG. Pre-CABG renal artery stenting may prevent the occurance of acute renal failure after operation.

Purpose: At present ,the local control of esophageal carcinoma have been improved by using intra-cavitary irradiation, but the complications a much more than before. It is necessary to study the real condition of these complications.Materials and Methods: From August 1993 to May 1994,38 patients with esophageal carcinoma were treated with external beam combined with intra-cavitary radiotherapy in our hospital. Conventional radiotherapy was used 200cGy/F,5F/W.When the dose of external beam reached 3800cGy/19F,intra-cavitary radiotherapy was added with the dose of 500cGy/F/W(patient did not receive the external beam at the same day). The total dose of external and intra-cavitary radiotherapy were 5000cGy/25F/5W and 1500cGy/3F/3W at end of the course respectively.Results: ① 68.4%(26/38) patients had esophagitis.②25 patients suffered from the non-carcinoma esophagostenosis, which was related to the length of tumor before treatment, the shade of soft tissue around lesion, the esophagitis, the diameter of esophagus cavitary and stiff of esophagus wall before intracavitary radiotherapy.③10 of 38 cases had non-carcimoma ulcer. All patients had received 1500cGy/3F/3W intracavitary radiotherapy and occured serious esophagitis, 7 of 10 suffered from the non-carcinoma stricture and ulcer before or later.④ 6 of 38 cases had the fistula and 5 patients had been exposed 1500cGy/3F/3W intracavitary radiotherapy.Conclusion: Esophageal carcinoma treated by afterloading techniques may improve the serious obstruction immediately, but it is not sure the long-term survial yet. We also find the increasing serious complications and the decreasing life quality by using this treatment.We suggests that this method only can be used as an auxilliary way with the external beam radiotherapy.
