Objective To increase the speed of thermoacoustic imaging, a deconvolution reconstruction (DR) algorithm is proposed for small-scale need detecting living beings, on the basis of deconvolution of thermoacustic imaging algorithm. Methods A new function was firstly constructed from the detected acoustic pressure function. Then, the distribution of electromagnetic wave absorption coefficient of the need detecting living beings could be reconstructed from this new function based on the deconvolution method. Computer simulation studies were carried out to compare the DR algorithm with the two popular algorithms: the time-domain reconstruction (TDR) and the filtered back projection (FBP). Results For small-scale need detecting living beings, the accuracy of DR was nearly equivalent to TDR and slightly better than FBP. However, DR was about 4 to 6 times faster than TDR and about 25 to 100 times faster than FBP under the simulation experiment condition. Conclusion DR is a fast and effective algorithm of thermoacoustic imaging for small-scale living beings.

Objective To study the method based on gradient vector flow (GVF) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) for realizing multimodal medical image registration and improving its accuracy. Methods In view of three major components of image registration, i.e. the feature space, the similarity metric and the search strategy, a novel method was proposed with three improvements. Firstly, the GVF field was employed as the feature space. Then three similarity metrics were proposed based on GVF field. Finally, an improved PSO combined with crossover mechanism of genetic algorithm was utilized to search for the optimal transformation of two images. Results With 54 times of experiments on both simulated and real medical images, it was demonstrated that this method accurately registered the multimodal medical images to be superior to the method based on PSO of pixels, and the Walsh transform method. Conclusion The method based on GVF and PSO is effective for multimodal medical image registration.

CD4 +T cells from patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection undergo apoptosis at an enhanced rate, which leads to immune system damage and invalidation to withstand the virus intrusion. The current antiviral drugs aim at the virus can not clear the chronically infected cells which are the virus reservoirs. But treatment of HIV/AIDS patients with the HIV protease inhibitors (PIs) can reduce the cell apoptosis induced by HIV infection, which can improve immune function, and that is separate from the antiviral effects of PIs. Such suggests that immune reconstruction is a new strategy to cure AIDS. This text reviews HIV PIs research and development, their function characteristics and the effects on cell apoptosis. To define the relationship between HIV PIs and cell apoptosis may inspire new ways of curing the AIDS.-

Objective:To explore the effects of formative assessment using sitcom play in obstetrics and gyne-cology nursing teaching.Methods:Totally 214 undergraduate of grade 2011 nursing students were recruited in the present study.Using envelope method,2 classes were randomly selected as the control group and 2 as the experi-mental group.Students in the control group (n--107) were assessed with traditional assessment method,while those in the experimental group (n =107) were taught using situational drama performance and assessed with form-ative assessment method throughout the process.Students' test scores of obstetrics and gynecology nursing in these two groups were compared,and the opinions on the formative assessment method using sitcom play were investiga-ted among students in the experimental group.Results:Students in the experimental groupscored significantly high-er than those of the control group(78.43 ± 5.21 vs.76.67 ± 6.40,t =2.20,P ＜ 0.05).About 98.31％ of the students approved the formative assessment mode.They reported that this approach was helpful to improve the abili-ty to combine theory and practice andto communicate with others,to cultivate students' creative thinking,and to stimulate their learning interest and learning initiative.Conclusion:The application of formative assessment mode using sitcom play in obstetrics and gynecology nursing teaching is beneficial to enhance teaching effect and improve the ability of nursing students,which is worth popularizing.

ObjectivesTo study the clinical characteristics, the risk factors and outcomes of arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) and hemorrhagic stroke (HS) in children.MethodsThe clinical data from 142 children with AIS or HS were retrospectively re-viewed and compared from Nov. 2010 to May 2014.ResultsIn these children, 92 cases (64.8%) was diagnosed of AIS, amont whom there were 60 males and 32 females and the onset age of stroke was 4.6±3.6 years (1 months to 16 years old), and 50 cases (35.2%) was diagnosed of HS, among whom there were 34 males and 16 females and the onset age of stroke was 2.6±3.7 years (1 months to 13 years old). The difference in age between two groups was statistically signiifcant (P=0.007). The most common presentation of AIS were focal neurological dysfunction including paralysis (73 cases, 79.3%), central facial palsy (30 cases, 32.6%) and speech impairment (19 cases, 20.7%). The most common presentation of HS were diffuse neurological dysfunction including dizziness (29 cases, 58.0%), nausea/vomiting (22 cases, 44.0%) and headache (14 cases, 28.0%). The major risk factors of AIS were arteriopathy (49 cases, 53.3%), infection (47 cases, 51.1%) and minor head injury (16 cases, 17.4%). The major risk factors of HS were vitamin K deifciency (22 cases, 44.0%), intracranial vascular anomalies (8 cases, 16.0%) and haematological disorders (6 cases, 12.0%). Five cases (6.4%) were died, 48 cases (61.5%) became disabled and 9 cases (11.5%) were relapsed in children with AIS while 15 cases (34.1%) were died, 19 cases (43.2%) became disabled in children with HS. The mortality was signiifcantly higher in children with HS than that in children with AIS (P<0.01).ConclusionsIn childhood stroke, HS occurs more frequently than is commonly appreciated and it has a poorer prognosis than AIS.

Objective: To investigate the effect of different analgesia methods on blood coagulation in patients who underwent esophageal carcinoma surgery through thrombelastography (TEG). Methods:A total of 60 patients who underwent radical esophagecto-my were randomly divided into the patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) group and patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) group with 30 cases each. The visual analogue scale (VAS) and patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) bottom pressing times were recorded at 6, 12, 24, and 48 h after surgery. The TEG parameters were measured at the time before anesthesia (T0), the end of surgery (T1), first day after operation (T2), second day after operation (T3), and third day after operation (T4). Results:(1) Compared with the PCIA group, the VAS scores and PCA bottom pressing times were significantly lower (P<0.05). (2) The R and K values of the PCEA group had no significant difference compared with T0 (P>0.05), and were significantly prolonged than those in the PCIA group at T2, T3, and T4 (P<0.05). (3) The platelet amount of the two groups decreased at T2 and T3 compared with that at T0 (P<0.05). Conclu-sion:The analgesic effect of PCEA was better than that of PCIA in patients who underwent esophageal carcinoma surgery, and may im-prove their hypercoagulability.
