Perception, affection and consciousness are basic psychological functions of human being. Affection is the subjective reflection of different kinds of objects. The foundation of human being's thinking is constituted by the three basic functions. Affective computing is an effective tool of revealing the affectiveness of human being in order to understand the world. Our research of affective computing focused on the relation, the generation and the influent factors among different affections. In this paper, the affective mechanism, the basic theory of affective computing, is studied, the method of acquiring and recognition of affective information is discussed, and the application of affective computing is summarized as well, in order to attract more researchers into this working area.

The apoplexy was first formally proposed by Zhang Zhongjing in TCM.After extensive study of the medical researchers,its on causes,pathogenesis,diagnosis and treatment and prescription were developed.The cause and pathogenesis covered three stages:The period of exopathic wind,endogenous wind and combination of internal and external wind.The knowledge of the cause and the pathogenesis of the apoplexy during Jing,Yuan and Ming dynasty focused on endogenous wind.The article reviews the medical researchers' understanding of the apoplexy's pathogenic rule from the review on classical literatures of this period.

Objective To compare 76% meglucamine diatrizoate solution with 60%barium sulphate suspen-sion for use in videofluoroscopic swallowing studies(VFSSs).Methods Forty-nine cases of dysphagia caused by brain injury.brainstem lesion ir nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC)were recruited for this study.They were divided into a meglucamine diatrizoate group of 22 patients who were administered 76% meglucamine diatrizoate solution as a contrast agent,and a barium sulphate group of 27 patients with whom 70%barium sulphate suspension was used.All the Datients were treated by balloon dilatation and other routine dysphagia rehabilitation procedures.The treatment end point was either the patient's resuming an oral diet or after 4 weeks of treatment. All cases were evaluated by VFSS pre-and post-treatment.Results The patients in the meglucamine diatrizoate group showed significant pre-and post-treatment differences in terms of the pharynx transit times of brain injury and brainstem lesion victims.NPC patients showed no significant differences.In the barium sulphate group there were significant pre-and post-treatment differences in Dharynx transit time for patients with all three conditions. Conclusions Using 76%meglucamine di-atrizoate solution as a contrast agent decreases the sensitivity of VFSS. Using 60% barium sulphate suspension in VFSS is recommended.

Objective:To investigate the surface characterization,cell adhension and proliferation of ultrafine grained titanium (UFG Ti) after different sand blasting and acid-etching(SLA).Methods:The billets of UFG Ti and commercially pure titanium Ti(CP Ti) were incised into cylindrical specimens with 7 mm in diameter and 2 mm in height.The specimens were sand blasted at the air pressure of 0.2,0.4,0.6 and 0.8 MPa respectively(n =10) and then acid-etched.The surface morphology,roughness and surface wettability of the specimens were examined.Rat embryo osteoblasts MC3T3-E1 were cultured on the speciments for 1 d,3 d and 5 d respectively,the cell morphology and cell density were observed.Results:The different hierarchical porous topographies were formed on the surface of UFG and CP Ti after modified by SLA.The sizes of blasted holes on the surface and the surface roughness of both materials increased with the increase of blast pressure,but the values of UFG Ti were lower than those of CP Ti correspondingly(P ＜ 0.05).The surface wettability of them was also changed with the blast pressure,but the values of UFG Ti was significantly smaller than those of CP Ti(P ＜ 0.05).When the blast pressure was 0.6 Mpa,the UFG Ti exhibited excellent wettability,the cell density was the highest,the morphology of MC3T3-E1 cells on UFG Ti was superior to that on CP Ti.Conclusion:UFG Ti exhibits proper surface morphology,roughness and excellent wettability,which is more appropriate for adhension and proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells after modification by SLA at blast pressure of 0.6 Mpa.

Objective:To investigate the renal injury of portal hypertensive rat after one hour of occlusion of portal vein and inferior vena cava.Methods:Healthy male Wistar rats were taken randomly as normal control、portal hypertensive control and trial group.The recoverable portal hypertensive model was induced firstly.Three weeks later ,15 model rats were taken randomly as portal hypertensive control group,others had another operation and were divided randomly into 0,6h,12h,24h,48h,72h,7d group according to different reperfusion time after 1 hour of occlusion of portal vein and inferior vena cava.At the corresponding time points after reperfusion,the examinations below were done:serum ALT,TBIL,BUN,Cr concentrations;mor-phological changes of liver and kidney,the ultrastructure of renal tissue.Results:Serum and Cr in trail group reached their peak value 12~24 hours after reperfusion,then decreased gradually,and returned to normal 72 hours after reperfusion.The main injury of kidney was located in proximal tubular epithelial cell ,it peaked at 12 hours and 24 hours after reperfusion,the sporadic karyopyknosis and karyorrhexis could be seen,but the basement membrane preserved well.48 hours later,the restoration could be seen.7 days later it restored obviously.Conclusion:There are obvious injury in tubular epithelial cell in the portal hypertensive rat after 1 hour of occlusion of portal vein and inferior vena cava.But the injury of kidney is reversible.

Objective:To evaluate the reliability and validity of the adaptation OSSIQ in measuring the life quality of the populations with different types of subjective skin.Methods:A stratified samplings strategy was adopted to select 140 college students, workers, personnel of enterprises and institutions aged 18-60 years old.The reliability and validity of adaptation OSSIQ were evealuated using internal consistency validity, split half reliability, and construct validity.Results:The adaptation OSSIQ had a Cronbach's α efficient of 0.924 and 0.902.Split half reliability, the Spearman-Brown before and after skin care were 0.877 and the Guttman Split-Half coefficients were 0.876 and 0.874 respectively.Contentvalidity, the Item-scale correlation coefficients exceed 0.5 (P<0.001) before and after skin care.Satisfactory (100%) convergent validity and discriminant validity were found.The contract validity was checked by factor analysis;after quartimax rotation, the researcher extracted the factors by the default principle of eigenvalue>1.Each factor consisted of the items with factor loading≥0.6;the load factor value belonged to high level (≥0.6) by factor analysis.Conclusion:Adaptation OSSIQ has good reliability and validity for the evaluation on life quality of the populations with different types of subjective skin.It can be used to evaluate the influence of different types of skin in the life quality.

Objective To investigate the effects of using a catheter balloon to treat crieopharyngeal achala-sia in patients with brainstem lesions. Methods Thirty cases of dysphagia caused by brainstem lesions were diag-nosed as crieopharyngeal achalasia through videofluoroscopy of swallowing.The cases were divided into a treatment group and a control group randomly.The treatment group was treated with balloon dilatation and routine dysphagia re-habilitation training once daily,while the control group was treated with routine dysphagia rehabilitation training only.The treatment end point was either the patient resuming an oral diet or after 4 weeks of treatment.All eases were evaluated videofluoroscopically with a drinking test pre-and pest-treatment.Results After 10 to 24 balloon dilata-tions,10 of the 15 patients in the treatment group regained the ability to take solid food and water orally,thoush 2 of them could take pasty food only.Only 2 of the 15 patients in the control group regained the ability to take common food by mouth,though 5 of them could take pasty food.The other patients had no improvement.There wag a signifi-cant difference between the two groups.The cricopharyngeal aehalasia of 12 patients in the ffeatment group improved from incomplete relaxation/opening to complete relaxation/opening.Pooling and residue in the pyriform sinus or val-leculae was reduced and no misaspiration was observed.In the control group only 7 patients had some improvement.The mesn time for the bolus passing the pharynx after treatment was significantly shortened from 0.23 s to 0.15 s in the treatment group,but not significantly in the control group.Conclusions Catheter balloon dilatation is effective for cricopharyngeal achalasia caused by brainstem injury and is helpful for relieving the symptoms in the pharynx phase and the esophagus phase of dysphagia.

Objective Objective To explore the reasons of lung hypervolemia after liver transplantation and the corresponding treatment strategies.Method 291 patients received liver transplantation,in which 35 cases underwent pulmonary edema at early stage (pulmonary hypervolemia group),and the rest without pulmonary hypervolemia served as control group.Average central venous pressure (CVP) was recorded pre-,intra-and post-operatively.Total intake,total discharge and fluid balance were also recorded intraoperatively and 3 days post-operatively.Result In pulmonary hypervolemia group,CVP was (12.33 ± 5.08),(14.33 ± 3.03) and (16.50 ± 4.57) mmHg pre-,intra-and post-operatively,significantly higher than that in control group (P＜0.05 for all).Total intake,total discharge and fluid balance in pulmonary hypervolemia group were significantly higher than those in control group intraoperatively and 3 days post-operatively (P＜0.05 for all).After diuretic therapy and hemodialysis,30 cases in pulmonary hypervolemia group recurred,and 5 cases died of infection.Conclusion Pulmonary hypervolemia at early stage after liver transplantation is related to fluid balance.The reasonable control of total intake,total discharge and fluid balance is necessary.

Objective To investigate the effect of moderate pain on attentional bias towards emotional pictures among healthy subjects.Methods Thirty-two healthy college students aged from 17 to 26 (21.8±2.2;16 males and 16 females) participated in this study.A tourniquet was tied to each subject's left upper arm 1 to 2cm above the cubits horizontal grain.Pain was inflicted by inflating the tourniquet,and the pressure was maintained at 26.66kPa.While tourniquet was inflated (with pain) or not (no pain),each subject was asked to finish a pictorial dot-probe task with three kinds of pictures-emotionally positive,negative and neutral.In experiment 1,subjects performed the dot-probe tasks with the contralateral hand while the tourniquet was tied on the left upper arm without inflation.In experiment 2 the tourniquet was inflated until the subject completed the dot-probe task (for about 10min).The reaction times (RTs) and the error rates (Ers) in the recognition task were recorded,and the intensity of the subject's pain and discomfort were measured using a verbal rating scale.Results The subjects reported moderate to severe pain with the tourniquet inflated.The RT and ER data were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) which showed a significant difference between the average RTs of the males (482±73ms without pain and 466±82ms with pain) and those of the females (536±90ms without pain and 519±100 ms with pain).The average ER was significantly different between the pain (2.38±1.49)％ and no pain (1.09±0.82)％ conditions in both groups.Holn-Sidak multiple comparison testing showed significant differences in both groups' average ER between the negative picture (3.81±1.73)％ and the positive picture (1.66±0.97)％,and between the negative and neutral pictures (1.68±0.8) ％ in the pain condition.Mild attentional avoidance was observed with the positive [pain condition (-5.1±4.8) ms and no pain (-4.6±4)ms] and negative pictures [pain condition (-3.43±6) ms and no pain (-0.79±4.1)ms],but no significant difference was found between the pain and no pain conditions.Conclusion The error rate in a pictorial dot-probe task is influenced by pain,especially with negative pictures.
