ObjectiveMatching pursuit algorithm(MAP),for its good parametric characterization,was applied in epileptic electroencephalography(EEG) to study time-frequency distribution.MethodsSimulation experiment of time-frequency analysis was carried out to verify the matching pursuit algorithm s superiority on frequency resolution and parametric characterization.Fourier transform,Wigner-Ville distribution and matching pursuit algorithm were applied to the time-frequency analysis on normal EEG and epileptic EEG to study epileptic discharge in the time-frequency plane and the results were compared.ResultsSimulation results showed that the matching pursuit algorithm obtained a better time-frequency distribution.Distributions of epileptic EEG and normal EEG had significant difference in time-frequency plane.ConclusionTime-frequency analysis based on matching pursuit can better reveal the EEG characteristics.

Objective To investigate the surgery-related complications and risk factors of ileocolic Crohn's disease (CD).Methods The retrospective case-control study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 52 patients with ileocolic CD who underwent surgery at the Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2010 to April 2016 were collected.Observation indicators:(1) surgery-related complications,(2) risk factors analysis of surgery-related complications:gender,age of onset,preoperative body mass index (BMI),course of disease,smoking history,history of appendectomy,perianal lesions,oral ulcer,C-reactive protein (CRP),erythrocyte sedimentation rate,disease behavior,short crohn's disease activity index (sCDAI),preoperative amino salicylic acid therapy,preoperative hormone therapy,preoperative antituberculosis therapy,preoperative immunosuppressive agents therapy,preoperative biologic agents therapy,emergency operation,surgical method and ileocolic anastomosis method,(3) follow-up.The follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect recurrence of disease up to August 2016.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as-x ± s.The univariate analysis was done using the chi-square test,and multivariate analysis was done using the Logistic regression model.Results (1) Surgery-related complications:of 52 patients,12 had postoperative complications.Four patients complicated with wound infection had good healing of the wound after debridement and dressing change.Of 4 patients with abdominal infection,3 were improved by anti-infection symptomatic treatment and 1 die of septic shock at postoperative day 1.One patient with intestinal obstruction had a smooth recovery after open adhesiolysis.One patient with intestinal fistula discharged from hospital due to a critical condition under families' requestion.One patient with acute cholecystitis and 1 with acute pancreatitis were respectively improved by conservative treatment.(2) Risk factors analysis of surgery-related complications:theresult of univariate analysis showed that sCDAI and emergency operation were the factors infecting surgery-relatedcomplications of ileocolic CD (x2 =6.299,8.494,P ＜ 0.05).The result of multivariate analysis showed that sCDAI was an independent factor infecting surgery-related complications of ileocolic CD [OR =2.716,95％ confidence interval (CI):1.216-6.066,P ＜ 0.05].(3) Follow-up:all the 52 patients were followed up for 5-76 months with a median time of 39 months.During the follow-up,15 had recurrence of diseases and then underwent medical treatment.Conclusions Patients with ileocolic CD are easily complicated with wound infection and abdominal infection in the active period,and sCDAI is an independent factor infecting surgery-related complications of ileocolic CD.
