Objective:To design a management system of internet of things(IoT)smart operation room based on business process reconstruction theory,and explore the application effect of that in improving management effectiveness for operation room.Methods:Aimed at the existing problems of key points in the management for operation room,the process was reconstructed on the basis of the original information system,relevant systems,workflows and standards of operation room of Fuwai Hospital of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College.Then,a management system of IoT smart operation room based on business process reconstruction theory was designed.The surgical data of 13159 patients who underwent relevant operation of cardiovascular surgery from January to December 2022 were selected,and they were divided into"before-application"group(6 483 cases)and"after-application"group(6 676 cases)according to the point before and after the system was applied.Some indicators'data,which included scheduling management situation of picking up and dropping off patients by medical auxiliaries,duration of preparing anesthesia,duration of preoperative waiting,interval duration of continuous surgery and usage amount of surgical gowns under same amount of surgery,between two groups were compared.Results:The transportation efficiency of patients who underwent surgery after system was applied was(1.38±0.09)surgeries/h,which was higher than(0.99±0.09)surgeries/h before it was applied,and the difference was statistically significant(t=6.604,P<0.001).The satisfaction score of medical auxiliaries increased from 3.83(3.33,4.5)before application to 4.50(4.33,4.83)after application,and the difference was significant(Z=2.02,P<0.05).The duration of preparing anesthesia and duration of preoperative waiting after the system was applied were respectively(62.04±2.29)and(8.09±2.46)min,both of which were less than those before the system was applied,and the differences of them between two groups were statistically significant(t=2.309,2.280,P<0.05).The usage amount of surgical gowns under same amount of surgery after the system was applied was(4.11±0.57)gowns/surgery,which was less than(5.81±0.29)gowns/surgery before the system was applied,and the difference was statistically significant(t=6.489,P<0.05).Conclusion:The application of the management system of IoT smart operation room based on business process reconstruction theory can provide more safely,high-qualitatively and efficiently medical services for patients,and improve work efficiency and management effectiveness for operation room,and reduce resource consumption and operating cost.
3.Polysomnography monitoring of sleep related bruxism comorbid with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome
Journal of Apoplexy and Nervous Diseases 2025;42(6):534-539
Objective To investigate the sleep architecture of sleep related bruxism(SB)in adults and the sleep architecture of SB comorbid with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS),as well as their correlation with age and other factors. Methods A total of 51 subjects with SB and 67 controls were included in this study to analyze the sleep architecture of SB and compare the sleep architecture of SB comorbid with different severities of OSAHS. Results Compared with the control group,the SB group had a younger age,increases in N1(%TST)and N2(%TST),a reduction in N3(%TST),and an increase in arousal index. The SB group was divided into non-OSAHS group(group 1),mild OSAHS group(group 2),and moderate-to-severe OSAHS group(group 3). Group 1 had a younger age than group 2 and group 3,and group 3 had increases in body mass index(BMI),N1(%TST),oxygen desaturation index(ODI),and arousal index and a reduction in N3(%TST). The Spearman's rank correlation analysis showed that BMI,N1(%TST),arousal index,and ODI increased with the increase in apnea-hypopnea index(AHI),while N3(%TST)decreased with the increase in AHI. The binary logistic regression analysis showed that SB was negatively correlated with age and was positively correlated with arousal index. Conclusion SB may affect sleep architecture by increasing light sleep,reducing deep sleep,and increasing the number of awakenings. There are changes in sleep architecture in case of SB comorbid with different severities of OSAHS. SB is negatively correlated with age and is positively correlated with arousal index.

Objective:To observe the synaptic plasticity and characteristics of transmembrane calcium flux in the hippocampus of 3xTg-AD mice.Methods:According to different genotypes, 6-month-old mice were divided into two groups: APP/PS1/tau triple transgenic AD (3xTg-AD) model mice and wild type (WT) mice, with 13 mice in each group.Six mice were randomly selected from each group to do in vivo electrophysiological recording.Field excitatory postsynaptic potential (fEPSP) was evoked by test stimulation, paired-pulse facilitation (PPF) was induced by two stimuli, and long-term potentiation (LTP) was induced by high frequency stimulation (HFS) in the hippocampal CA1 region of mice.The remaining seven mice in each group were used to detect the transmembrane calcium influx and efflux in the slices of hippocampal CA1 region by using non-invasive micro-test technology (NMT). In the electrophysiological and NMT experiments, one mouse fell off respectively.Finally, five mice were enrolled in the electrophysiological experiment and six in the NMT experiment.SPSS 18.0 was used for statistical analysis of all data, and two independent sample t-test was used for comparison between the two groups. Results:(1) In the in vivo electrophysiological experiments, the fEPSP slopes of 3xTg-AD mice and WT mice evoked by test stimulation were stable within 30 min, and the average fEPSP slopes were ((97.8±2.3)%) and ((92.6±12.6)%), respectively.There was no statistical difference of the average fEPSP slopes between the two groups ( t=0.91, P>0.05). After paired-pulse stimulation, the PPF values of 3xTg-AD mice and WT mice were (1.58±0.69) and (1.74±0.17) respectively, and there was no statistical difference between the two groups ( t=0.50, P>0.05). At 30 min and 60 min post-HFS, the LTP values in 3xTg-AD mice were ((104.9±10.9)%) and ((98.0±10.8)%) respectively, which were significantly lower than those in WT mice((156.5±21.3)%, t=4.43, P<0.01; (162.5 ±19.7)%, t=5.92, P<0.01). (2) In NMT experiments, the standardized mean and peak velocities of glutamate-induced Ca 2+ influx in hippocampal CA1 region of 3xTg-AD mice were ((-2 166.0±425.0)%) and ((-3 539.6±1 270.9)%) respectively, which were significantly higher than those in WT mice((-735.3±262.9)%, t=6.81, P<0.01; (-917.3±271.7)%, t=4.89, P<0.01). The standardized average and peak velocities of low Ca 2+ solution-induced Ca 2+ efflux in 3xTg-AD mice were ((1 451.6±297.1)%) and ((1 968.7±227.3)%) respectively, which were significantly lower than those in WT mice((2 579.3±810.9)%, t=2.92, P<0.05; (3 420.4±954.8)%, t=3.31, P<0.01). Conclusion:The hippocampal synaptic plasticity impairment observed in 6-month-old 3xTg-AD may be closely related with the intracellular Ca 2+ overload caused by increased calcium influx and decreased calcium efflux.
