1.Multi-scale Permutation Entropy and Its Applications in the Identification of Seizures.
Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2015;32(4):751-756
The electroencephalogram (EEG) has proved to be a valuable tool in the study of comprehensive conditions whose effects are manifest in the electrical brain activity, and epilepsy is one of such conditions. In the study, multiscale permutation entropy (MPE) was proposed to describe dynamical characteristics of EEG recordings from epilepsy and healthy subjects, then all the characteristic parameters were forwarded into a support vector machine (SVM) for classification. The classification accuracies of the MPE with SVM were evaluated by a series of experiments. It is indicated that the dynamical characteristics of EEG data with MPE could identify the differences among healthy, interictal and ictal states, and there was a reduction of MPE of EEG from the healthy and interictal state to the ictal state. Experimental results demonstrated that average classification accuracy was 100% by using the MPE as a feature to characterize the healthy and seizure, while 99. 58% accuracy was obtained to distinguish the seizure-free and seizure EEG. In addition, the single-scale permutation entropy (PE) at scales 1-5 was put into the SVM for classification at the same time for comparative analysis. The simulation results demonstrated that the proposed method could be a very powerful algorithm for seizure prediction and could have much better performance than the methods hased on single sale PF

China Pharmacy 2005;0(18):-
OBJECTIVE: To guarantee safety of drug use in medical institutions of Yangpu District of Shanghai and to promote rational use of drugs. METHODS: 159 ADR cases reported to Shanghai ADR Monitoring Center by 3 secondary hospitals of Yangpu District of Shanghai in 2009 were analyzed statistically. RESULTS: 71 kinds of drugs were involved in 159 ADR cases. 99 ADR cases were induced by antibiotics(62.26%). 14 ADR cases were induced by hypotensive and antianginal drugs (8.81%). 10 ADR cases were caused by TCM preparations (6.29%). 123 ADR cases were caused by intravenous route (77.36%). ADR incidence of male was higher than female (1.2 ∶ 1). 63 ADR cases were patients over 60 years old (39.62%). Main clinical manifestation were lesion of skin and its appendants in 75 cases (47.17%). There were 6 new ADR cases,5 severe ADR cases and 1 dead case. CONCLUSION: Great importance should be attached to ADR monitoring and reporting in order to promote rational use of drug.

The relation between patent applications and published papers in hospitals of Guangdong Province since 2000 on China Intellectual Property Network was analyzed , which showed that the quality and quantity of patents were lower in hospitals of Guangdong Province than in those of Shanghai and Beijing , the quality of patents was re-lated with the medical service level in hospitals, the patent applications were centralized in large class A hospitals of Guangzhou , and inventive patents were those of medical preparations .Suggestions were thus put forward for hos-pitals of Guangdong Province to improve their awareness of patent application, the quality of patents, transformation of patents, cooperation with patent service organizations, research of patent application, and balance of patent dis-tribution in different areas.

Objective To compare the clinical application between peripherally inserted central catheterization(PICC) and subclavian central venous catheterization in severely ill patients.Methods A prospective study was carried out in 80 severely ill patients who had been randomly divided into two groups: receiving either PICC(PICC Group,40 patients) or subclavian central venous catheterization(Subclavian Group,40 patients).The success rate,the puncturing time,and the incidence of adverse reactions in the two groups were observed.Results The rate of successful puncture on one session was higher in the PICC Group(92.5%) than in the Subclavian Group(75.0%)(?2=4.501,P=0.034).And as compared with the Subclavian Group,the PICC Group reported a shorter puncturing time(15.7?5.3 min vs 23.9?6.3 min;t=-6.263,P=0.000) and a lower rate of adverse reactions(10.0% vs 27.5%;?2=4.021,P=0.045).Conclusions Use of peripherally inserted central catheterization is simple and safe to perform,superior to subclavian central venous catheterization.

Chinese Journal of General Practitioners 2017;16(8):618-620
Clinical data of 448 patients aged ≥60 years with osteoporotic hip fractures admitted in Shanghai Huashan Hospital between January 2010 and December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Among 448 cases,there were 143 males and 305 females;196 cases aged 80-89 years (43.8%) and 137 cases aged 70-79 years (30.6%);304 cases of femoral neck fracture (67.9%) and 144 cases of intertrochanteric femoral fracture (32.1%);the fractures caused by fall in 328 cases (73.2%) and comorbidity with hypertension and diabetes mellitus in 415 cases (92.6%).Two hundred and sixty eight patients were followed up for 2 years,among whom re-fractures occurred in 17 cases.The study indicates that health education is important for prevention of osteoporotic fractures in elderly people.

Objective To observe high residual platelet reactivity in patients with acute coronary syndrome and diabetes mellitus receiving dual antiplatelet therapy with clopidogrel or ticagrelor and its influence on prognosis. Methods A total of 175 patients with acute coronary syndrome and diabetes mellitus in Wuhan Asia Heart Hospital were included in this retrospective study, and all patients were divided into two groups : ticagrelor group ( n = 22 ) and clopidogrel group ( n = 153 ) . The platelet aggregation function was tested by light transmission platelet aggregation (LTA). The high residual platelet reactivity was defined as maximum platelet aggregation rate ﹥46. 0%. The differences of high residual platelet reactivity and the effect of high residual platelet reactivity on cardiovascular events were compared between the two groups. Results The number of patients with high residual platelet reactivity in the clopidogrel group were 99 patients (64. 7%), and 8 patients(36. 4%) in the ticagrelor group (P=0. 011) . For stent thrombosis developed in three months, 3 patients were from the high residual platelet reaction group ( n=107 ) , none from the normal residual platelet reaction group ( n =68 ) ( P =0. 016 ) . For bleeding events at 3 months, there were 2 patients (1. 9%, 2/107) from the high residual platelet reaction group and 2 patients (2. 9%, 2/68) were from the normal residual platelet reaction group (P=0. 631). Conclusions Ticagrelor significantly decreases high residual platelet reactivity than clopidogrel. High residual platelet reactivity increases stent thrombosis risk for ACS and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To study cell proliferation and apoptosis of renal corpuscle in normal developing mouse.Methods PCNA immunohistochemisty method,terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP-biotin nick endlabeling(TUNEL staining method)and light,electron microscopy were used to observe proliferation and apoptosis within corpuscle at different stages of development.Results Nearly all cells in Ⅰ and Ⅱ stages had nuclear PCNA immunolabeling.The number of PCNA immunolabeling cells during Ⅲ and Ⅳ stages was gradually decreased,and to less in Ⅴ stage.TUNEL positive cells could be easily observed before birth and identified in Ⅲ and Ⅳ stages.Electron microscope revealed that the mitotic activity was observed in all cells of Ⅰ and Ⅱ stages renal corpuscles.The mitotic phases of endothelial cells and podocytes could be seen in Ⅲ stage,but only endothelial mitotic activities in Ⅳ stage of renal corpuscle.Apoptotic activities of endothelial cell and Bowman's parietal cell were noted,predominantly in Ⅲ and Ⅳ stages.Conclusion Proliferation and apoptosis exist universally in the course of developing renal corpuscle,and supervise and control the regular development of renal corpuscle cooperatively.
