DVH预测模型在VMAT计划培训中的应用

目的:以宫颈癌为例，探索使用剂量体积直方图（DVH）预测模型培训放疗物理师容积旋转调强（VMAT）计划设计的可行性及其效果。方法:随机选取20例宫颈癌测试病例对3名见习物理师进行两个阶段培训（第一阶段15例，第二阶段5例）。每位物理师分别采用两种方法设计VMAT计划:传统人工计划（MP）和基于DVH预测模型引导的自动计划（KBP）。对比不同阶段两种计划靶区和危及器官的各种剂量学参数，并做相应统计分析。结果:与人工计划相比，自动计划在明显提高PGTV靶区V60覆盖（P<0.001），改善高剂量控制（V66）（P=0.027）的情况下，显著降低膀胱（P<0.001）、直肠（P<0.001）、左右肾（P=0.001和P<0.001）以及左右侧股骨头（P<0.001和P<0.001）等绝大部分正常组织器官的受照剂量。在提高计划合格率的同时，亦减小了计划者间的质量差异。结论:DVH预测模型有助于深化物理师对VMAT初始优化参数设置的理解，加快培训进度，提升VMAT计划设计水平。     

基于Bark域的电子耳蜗频带划分分析和拟合研究

目前电子耳蜗主流的言语处理策略是基于滤波器组的言语处理算法，该算法通过分频带进行信号处理并把参数传递到对应的电极上。电子耳蜗滤波器组的频带划分不是等分的，而是按一定规律进行并且符合人耳听觉特性的，其中，Bark域的频带划分是重要的参考。本研究基于Bark域的电子耳蜗频带划分方法，探讨Bark域频带划分的特性并结合目前的电子耳蜗滤波器组的频带划分进行分析，进而探讨频带划分中的曲线拟合方法，为电子耳蜗滤波器组中的频带划分提供重要的方法和参数。     

Protective Role of Curcumin against N-Nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA)-Induced Toxicity in Rats

The present investigation was aimed at studying the possible role of curcumin against N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA)-induced toxicity in albino rats. Administration of NDEA to rats at a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml in drinking water ad libitum for 21 days produced toxicity in them, which was evident from histopathological changes in the rat livers, and increased levels of blood serum enzyme markers, i.e. aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, and lactate dehydrogenase. In addition, the levels of oxidative stress markers like lipid peroxidation (LPO), protein carbonyl (PCC), and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) activity were elevated and the total glutathione (GSH) content was reduced in the livers. The administration of curcumin to rats at concentrations of 10, 20, and 40 mg/ml in drinking water along with 0.1 mg/ml of NDEA for 21 days effectively suppressed NDEA-induced toxicity and also resulted in a dose-dependent reduction in the levels of blood serum enzyme markers (AST, ALT, ALP, and LDH). Moreover, LPO, PCC, and GST activity were reduced and the GSH level was increased upon the administration of curcumin along with NDEA. The results obtained for the comet assay in rat hepatocytes and blood lymphocytes showed a significant dose-dependent decrease in the mean tail length. The micronucleus assay performed on rat hepatocytes also showed a dose-dependent reduction in the frequency of micronucleated cells along with curcumin administration. These results suggest that curcumin has a protective role against NDEA-induced toxicity in albino rats.     

超声引导下双侧多点竖脊肌平面阻滞在后路脊柱侧凸矫正融合术中的应用

目的:探讨超声引导下双侧多点竖脊肌平面阻滞（ESPB）在后路脊柱侧凸矫正全麻手术中的应用和对术后镇痛的影响。方法:选取择期后路脊柱侧凸矫正融合术患者40例，ASA分级Ⅰ~Ⅱ，按照随机数字表法将所有患者分为ESPB组（E组）和对照组（C组），每组20例。E组于全身麻醉诱导前30 min分别行双侧T5和T10水平的ESPB，C组注射等量生理盐水。注药20 min后使用针刺痛觉评估法监测感觉阻滞平面。两组患者均采用相同的麻醉诱导及麻醉维持方案，术中均采用Narcotrend监测麻醉镇静深度。术后均行舒芬太尼自控静脉镇痛。记录两组患者术中麻醉药物用量、术后苏醒时间、术后2、4、6、12、24 h静息视觉模拟评分（VAS评分）和24 h PCA镇痛泵舒芬太尼用量及PCA按压次数；相关不良反应（恶心呕吐、呼吸抑制）以及阻滞相关并发症（穿刺部位感染、血肿、局麻药中毒）。结果:E组患者术中麻醉药物用量、苏醒时间、术后2、4、6、12 h VAS评分和PCA舒芬太尼用量及PCA按压次数均低于C组（P<0.05）。但术后24 h VAS评分两组比较差异无统计学意义。E组未出现穿刺部位感染、血肿、局麻药中毒等并发症。结论:超声引导下双侧多点ESPB在后路脊柱侧凸矫正融合术中能提供良好的镇痛，可以缩短麻醉苏醒时间，降低围术期阿片类药物的使用。

目的：探讨姜黄素对脑缺血再灌注自发性高血压（SH）大鼠认知功能的影响。方法:选取75只大鼠随机分为假手术组、模型组和实验组，每组25只；模型组和实验组构建脑中动脉栓塞（MCAO）模型，假手术组不阻塞大脑中动脉血供；实验组于术前30 min及再灌注后6 h腹腔注射姜黄素100 mg/kg，假手术组和模型组注射等量生理盐水。检测大鼠认知功能、缺血侧海马区神经元凋亡及相关蛋白的表达。结果：缺血再灌注2~72 h，与假手术组比，模型组神经元凋亡细胞数量增多，而实验组较模型组减少；模型组穿台次数减少，实验组多于模型组；模型组逃避潜伏期延长，实验组短于模型组；模型组缺血侧海马区磷脂酰肌醇3激酶（PI3K）、磷酸化蛋白激酶B（p-AKT）、半胱氨酸天冬氨酸蛋白酶-3（Caspase-3）蛋白含量高于假手术组，实验组PI3K、p-AKT蛋白含量高于模型组，Caspase-3蛋白低于模型组（均P<0.05）。结论:姜黄素可减轻脑缺血再灌注SH大鼠神经元凋亡程度，改善认知功能，其机制与上调PI3K、p-AKT蛋白表达及下调Caspase-3蛋白表达相关。     

Curcumin attenuates spatial memory impairment by anti-oxidative,anti-apoptosis,and anti-inflammatory mechanism against methamphetamine neurotoxicity in male Wistar rats: Histological and biochemical changes

ObjectiveMethamphetamine is used extensively around the world as a psychostimulant. The complications related to methamphetamine include methamphetamine-induced neurotoxicity, mainly involving intraneuronal processes, such as oxidative stress and excitotoxicity. Curcumin is effective against neuronal injury due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory effects. In this study, we examined the protective effects of curcumin against methamphetamine neurotoxicity.MethodsSixty male Wistar rats were divided into the following groups: control (n = 12), DMSO (n = 12), methamphetamine (n = 12), and methamphetamine + curcumin (100 and 200 mg/kg, respectively, intraperitoneal [IP]; n = 12). Neurotoxicity was induced by 40 mg/kg of methamphetamine administrated through 4 injections (4 × 10 mg/kg, q2h, IP). Curcumin (100 and 200 mg/kg) was administered at 7 days after the last methamphetamine injection. By using a Morris water maze task, the hippocampus-dependent memory and spatial learning were evaluated 1 day after the last curcumin injection. Then, the animal brains were isolated for biochemical measurements, as well as glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), ionized calcium-binding adaptor protein-1(Iba-1) and caspase-3 immunohistochemical staining.ResultsThe current study demonstrated that administration of curcumin significantly attenuates spatial memory impairment (P < 0.01) following methamphetamine neurotoxicity. Curcumin caused a significant increase in the levels of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase (P < 0.05). However, it decreased tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) (P < 0.05) and malondialdehyde (P < 0.01) levels as compared to the methamphetamine group. Also, curcumin significantly reduced Iba-1 (P < 0. 01), GFAP and caspase-3 positive cells in the hippocampus (P < 0.001).ConclusionCurcumin exerted neuroprotective effects on methamphetamine neurotoxicity because of its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect.     

基于心冲击信号的心率检测方法

针对现有基于心冲击描记图进行心率检测存在的抗干扰性不足问题，提出一种鲁棒的心率检测模型，首先对原始信号中受干扰的片段进行补偿重构，然后将J峰作为特征波形，通过基于J峰频段的滤波与差分增强处理放大特征，并设计改进的峰值提取算法定位心跳点，进而得到心率估计值。实验结果表明，所用模型对于不同情形下的心冲击描记图信号均表现出良好的适应性，逐拍检测平均覆盖率为98.3%，平均准确率为98.4%。心率输出结果与金标准一致性高，误差范围控制在[±]5%以内，且运算实时性好，可以为临床或家庭保健提供良好的心率检测方案。
