Objective To evaluate the molluscicidal effect of spraying different formulations of niclosamide ethanolamine salt with drones against Oncomelania hupensis in ditches. Methods A semi-dry and semi-wet ditch with O. hupensis snails was selected in the second branch field of Jiangbei Farm, Jiangling County, Hubei Province in May 2023, and divided into 4 experimental areas, named groups A1, A2, B1 and B2. Environmental cleaning was performed in groups A1 and B2, and was not conducted in groups A2 or B2. Then, 50% wettable powder of niclosamide ethanolamine salt was sprayed with drones at an effective dose of 2 g/m² in groups A1 and A2, and 5% niclosamide ethanolamine salt granule was sprayed with drones at an effective dose of 2 g/m² in groups B1 and B2. O. hupensis snails were surveyed using the systematic sampling method 1, 3, 5, 7, 14 days after spraying, and the natural mortality and corrected mortality of O. hupensis snails were calculated. Results The occurrence of frames with living snails, mean density of living snails and natural mortality of snails were 97.50% (117/120), 6.30 snails/0.1 m² and 1.18% (9/765) in the test ditch before spraying, respectively. There were significant differences in the mortality of snails among four groups 1, 3, 5, 7 and 14 days after spraying niclosamide formulations with drones (χ² = 17.230, 51.707, 65.184, 204.050 and 34.435, all P values < 0.01). The overall mortality rates of snails were 94.51% (1 051/1 112), 79.44% (908/1 143), 96.54% (977/1 012) and 88.55% (1 021/1 153) in groups A1, A2, B1 and B2 (χ² = 207.773, P < 0.05), respectively. In addition, there was no significant difference in the overall snail mortality between groups A1 and B1 (P > 0.05), and the snail mortality in groups A1 and B1 were both statistically different from that in groups A2 and B2 (all P values < 0.05). Conclusion Both 50% wettlable powder of niclosamide ethanolamine salt and 5% niclosamide ethanolamine salt granule sprayed with drones are active against O. hupensis snails in ditches, and environmental cleaning may improve the molluscicidal effect.

Objective:To investigate the consistency of swept-source optical coherence tomography(SS-OCT)and time-domain optical coherence tomography(TD-OCT)in measuring the parameters of anterior chamber angle.Methods:A total of 46 myopic patients(92 eyes)were retrospectively selected from Department of Ophthalmology of Army Specialty Medical Center from January 2023 to May 2023.Both SS-OCT and TD-OCT were used to measure respectively the parameters of anterior chamber angle of patients.And then,the differences of central anterior chamber depth(ACD),angle opening distance(AOD500,AOD750),scleral spur angle(SSA),trabecular iris area(TISA500,TISA750)between SS-OCT and TD-OCT were compared and analyzed.The Pearson correlation analysis and Bland-Altman test were adopted to analyze and measure the correlation and consistency of the measures.Results:There was significant difference in ACD between the two kinds of scan methods(t=-6.83,P<0.001).Additionally,the differences of the AOD500,AOD750,SSA500,TISA500 and TISA750 of measured data beside of nose were significant(t=-5.16,5.51,-6.51,-4.75,-5.69,P<0.001),respectively.Similarly,the differences of them beside of temple were significant(t=-5.04,-4.8,-6.06,-3.84,-4.02,P<0.001),respectively.There was positive correlation between the two kinds of scan methods(r=0.71-0.92).The Bland-Altman analysis showed that 2.1% to 8.9% of the measured values were outside the consistency limit by 95%.Conclusion:There are differences between SS-OCT and TD-OCT in the measures of the parameters of anterior chamber angle of myopic patients,and the measured results of them appear positive correlation.

Non-suicidal self-injury behavior and suicidal ideation are important risk factors for suicide attempts in patients with depression.At present,studies have found that there are obvious differences in electroencephalogram(EEG)characteristics between these two.Resting-state EEG analysis reveals that the absolute power of Gamma in specific electrode points is significantly increased in patients with depression accompanied by suicidal ideation.The Beta and Gamma activities of those with non-suicidal self-injury behavior changed.EEG microstate research shows that there are differences in microstates between those with non-suicidal self-injury behavior and those with suicidal ideation.Among them,short segments of microstate sequences have certain potential.In event-related potentials,these two show specific characteristics in components such as P3 wave and N2 wave.The amplitude of N2 wave in patients with depression accompanied by non-suicidal self-injury behavior is lower.Although there are few machine learning-related studies on EEG technology,it has shown certain application prospects.Therefore,this article will summarize the progress of EEG research related to the two,aiming to provide a basis for early prediction of suicide in depression.

Ultrasonic therapy technology is a research hotspot in the field of biomedicine,and the quality control and regulatory requirements for the ultrasonic physiotherapy equipment are also increasing.Based on this,the working principle and structure of ultrasonic physiotherapy equipment were analyzed,and a calibration method of ultrasonic physiotherapy equipment was proposed from the aspects of ultrasonic output power,effective radiation area and acoustic working frequency,etc.,aiming at its main measurement parameters,so as to provide technical reference for its measurement performance evaluation.Two ultrasonic physiotherapy equipment produced by different manufacturers were selected and tested to analyze the calibration results.The results showed that the calibration results were scientific and reasonable,highly operational,and in line with national standards,which can provide technical reference for metrology technical institutions to carry out related work.

A corresponding calibration method was proposed for the key performance parameters of the endoscopic liquid expansion pump,such as the pressure indication error,the flow rate indication error and the flow rate repeatability.4 different brands of endoscopic liquid expansion pumps in clinical use in the hospital were selected for calibration,and the feasibility of the calibration method was evaluated.In the pressure and flow range of the endoscope liquid expansion pump,3 calibration points of high,medium and low were selected,and each flow point was calibrated 3 times.The calibration results showed that the maximum error of pressure indication was 4.3%,the maximum error of flow indication was 9.3%,and the maximum repeatability of flow indication value was 0.8%,all of which met the technical requirements for the maximum allowable error of"Medical Endoscopes.Endoscope Functional Supply Units.Irrigation Pump"(YY/T 0864-2011)and"Calibration Specification for Syringe Pumps and Infusion Pumps"(JJF 1259-2018).The calibration method for endoscopic liquid expansion pump can improve the metrological traceability system of this type of equipment,ensure the accuracy and reliability of equipment values,improve product quality,and ensure medical safety.

Objective:To explore the calibration method of quality detection of spectrum therapy instrument in low pressure environment,so as to ensure its safety and stability in clinical use.Methods:Aimed at the 4 types of vertical spectrum therapy instrument,the calibration of quality test were carried out in normal environment and the simulated low pressure environment for 5 different altitudes that included 1.0,2.5,3.5,4.5 and 5.5 km.The detection of appearance function,unevenness of surface temperature and surface error,as well as the repetition of measurement of spectrum therapy instrument among different low pressure environment were compared.Results:In the low pressure environments of 5 different altitudes,the performance parameters of 3 types of spectrum therapy instruments were better,and the error of temperature unevenness was less than 10％.The performance of one type of spectrum therapy instrument was poor,and the error of temperature unevenness was between 10％and 20％.For the error of surface temperature of radiator,one type of spectrum therapy instrument was＜10％,and one type of that was＞15％,and two types of that cannot be assessed because there was not specific value.In normal environment,each detection indicator of 4 spectrum therapy instruments were normal.In this trial,the repetition of the result of only 1 type of spectrum therapy instrument was relatively larger,which was between 1.5％and 2.4％,and the repetition of other types was smaller.Conclusion:The calibration and detection methods of quality test of spectrum therapy instrument was explored in this article,which can ensure the clinical therapeutic effect,safety and stability.It is helpful to reduce the risk of that in clinical use.

Objective:To explore the genetic causes of cerebellar hypoplasia (CH) diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound.Methods:This retrospective study involved 32 fetuses with CH diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound in Wuxi Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2014 to December 2022. Prenatal ultrasound findings and genetic testing results for amniotic fluid were collected and analyzed. The correlation between fetal CH and genetic abnormality was analyzed. A descriptive statistical method was used for data analysis.Results:(1) General data: The 32 mothers were (28.0±4.9) years old, ranging from 18 to 37 years old; the gestational age at amniocentesis was (24.2±4.0) weeks, ranging from 18 +3 weeks to 37 +2 weeks. Apart from one case lost to follow-up, the other 31 cases terminated the pregnancies, including 30 terminated before 28 weeks of gestation and one at 33 weeks of gestation due to unmarried status. (2) Ultrasonic features: Among the 32 cases, 30(93.8%) were complicated by intracranial or extracranial abnormalities including cardiac abnormalities (15 cases), dilated lateral ventricles (ten cases), and abnormalities in limbs (eight cases) and face (nine cases). Two CH cases (6.2%) were isolated. (3) Genetic testing: Among the 32 cases, 13 cases (40.6%) had normal results of amniotic fluid karyotype analysis and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array. Among the 19 cases with abnormal amniotic fluid test results (59.4%), 16 cases have abnormal results in amniotic fluid karyotype analysis and SNP array detection [nine cases were numerical abnormalities, including five cases of trisomy-18, three of trisomy-21, and one of trisomy-13; seven cases were chromosomal structural abnormalities, including four cases of terminal deletion of chromosome 5 (Cri-du-Chat syndrome) and three cases of reciprocal translocation of chromosomes]. There was no abnormality in karyotype analysis of amniotic fluid in three cases. Still, their SNP array test results showed copy number variations (CNV) [one of 6q terminal deletion, one of 6q terminal deletion with 5p15.33 duplication, and one of 6q terminal deletion with 15q26.3 duplication; all variations were of unknown significance]. (4) Of the 19 cases with abnormal SNP array results, 17 were accompanied by abnormal intracranial/extracranial ultrasound findings. Among them, ten cases showed cardiac malformation, seven showed lateral ventricular widening, and seven showed limb abnormality. Conclusions:Numerical abnormalities, CDCS, and 6q terminal deletion are the most common genetic causes of CH diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound. Chromosome microarray analysis should be recommended for fetuses with ultrasound-diagnosed CH to evaluate fetal prognosis accurately.
