模糊聚类分析方法在髋关节图像处理中的应用

针对医学图像的模糊特点,结合模糊连接度,提出一种新的用模糊聚类分析检测圆弧的方法,它可以精确提取出圆弧.首先把曲线按一定长度进行分段处理,分别拟合出各段的圆心坐标和半径,通过模糊关系把具有一定相似性的聚为一类,把同一类中连续的段合在一起组成新段,再进行拟合,然后再对此段两端一定范围内寻找,直至找到最佳的圆弧.这种方法已应用到股骨头轮廓圆弧的提取.     

Uncooked rice of relatively low gelatinization degree resulted in lower metabolic glucose and insulin responses compared with cooked rice in female college students

Cooking processes that gelatinize granules or disrupt structure might increase the glucose and insulin responses because a disruption of the structure of starch by gelatinization increases its availability for digestion and absorption in the small intestine. We hypothesized that the uncooked form of rice, which has a relatively low degree of gelatinization even though in powder form, would result in lower metabolic glucose and insulin responses compared with cooked rice (CR). To assess the effects of the gelatinization of rice on metabolic response of glucose and insulin, we investigated the glucose and insulin responses to 3 rice meals of different gelatinization degree in female college students (n = 12): CR (76.9% gelatinized), uncooked rice powder (UP; 3.5% gelatinized), and uncooked freeze-dried rice powder (UFP; 5.4% gelatinized). Uncooked rice powders (UP and UFP) induced lower glucose and insulin responses compared with CR. The relatively low gelatinization degree of UPs resulted in low metabolic responses in terms of the glycemic index (CR: 72.4% vs UP: 49.7%, UFP: 59.8%) and insulin index (CR: 94.8% vs UP: 74.4%, UFP: 68.0%). In summary, UPs that were less gelatinized than CR induced low postprandial glucose and insulin responses.     

实时双平面超声心动图初步临床应用研究

目的　探讨实时双平面超声心动图的临床应用价值。方法　对 83例受检者进行实时双平面超声 (BP)检查 ,其中男 46例 ,女 3 7例 ,平均年龄 2 0 92± 19 16岁。正常人 10例 ,先天性心脏病 44例 ,心瓣膜病 2 6例 ,其他心脏病变3例。结果　实时双平面超声有助于理解心脏立体解剖 ;能通过有限的声窗获得更多的切面 ,并可显示常规经胸超声不易得到的切面 ;多切面显示心脏瓣膜及其病变 ,有利于获得瓣膜狭窄或关闭不全的最佳观察平面 ;多切面显示房、室间隔缺损 ,便于寻找缺损的最佳显示切面以及与毗邻结构的关系。房、室间隔缺损BP、2DE测值与手术测值均有良好相关性 ;室间隔缺损BP测值与手术测值无显著性差异 ;BP、2DE均有低估房间隔缺损大小的倾向。实时双平面超声能同时显示复杂先心病的多种解剖畸形 ,有利于确定房室连接 ;辨认主、肺动脉。结论　实时双平面超声有其独特的优势 ,可为心血管疾病的准确诊断提供更多的信息。     

在深静脉血栓—肺栓塞病程中腔静脉滤器的应用价值分析

目的：探讨腔静脉滤器(Vena cava filter VCF)在深静脉血栓(Deep venous thrombosis DVT)—肺栓塞(Pulmonary embolism PE)病程中的应用价值。方法：结合本组25例高危深静脉血栓一肺栓塞患者，对其中24例置放5种构型的永久型或临时型下腔静脉滤器(IVCF)26枚的临床疗效、影响病程与预后因素及病生理改变，复习文献分析讨论。结果：DVT有可能脱落导致PE或致死性肺栓塞；置放IVCF可有效预防肺栓塞，早期进行溶栓治疗，改变预后。结论：严格按适应证植入IVCF，对DVT—PE的早期治疗和预防致死性肺栓塞有重要意义，但其应用价值需进行综合评价和进一步探讨。

泰素蒂加顺铂治疗进展期NSCLC的临床研究

目的观察泰素蒂加顺铂方案治疗进展期非小细胞肺癌的临床疗效、毒副作用。方法收集可评价疗效的进展期非小细胞肺癌50例,以泰素蒂加顺铂方案进行化疗,泰素蒂75 mg/m2静脉滴注,第1天;顺铂25 mg/m2～30 mg/m2静脉滴注,第2天～第5天,每3周为一个周期,2～3周期后评价疗效和毒副反应并随访。结果50例患者中,总有效率为50.0 %,其中初治病例为53.1 %,复治病例为44.4 %,初复治病例间差异无显著性(P >0.05)。中位缓解期为5个月。中位生存期为9.5个月,1年生存率为61.0 %。毒副反应主要为骨髓抑制,白细胞下降达Ⅲ度、Ⅳ度者52.0 %,血小板下降达Ⅲ度、Ⅳ度者为14.0 %。血红蛋白下降不严重。其他毒副反应还有脱发、过敏反应、水钠潴留、静脉炎、末梢神经炎、口腔炎、腹泻等,但发生率均较低。结论泰素蒂加顺铂方案治疗进展期非小细胞肺癌,特别是复发病例,临床疗效比较满意,毒副反应能够耐受。辅以G蛳CSF可防治重度的骨髓抑制,有较好的临床应用价值。     

严重脊柱侧凸矫形患者围术期的舒适护理

对28例严重脊柱侧凸患者行矫形手术，结果手术均获成功，松解术后1周行后路矫形内固定加植骨融合术，术后Cobb角平均为40．8°，侧弯矫正率平均为52．0％。术后随访6～30个月，均无并发症发生。提出在做好脊柱侧凸矫形手术常规护理的同时，加强患者心理、体位、呼吸、镇痛、排便等方面的舒适护理，可增强患者舒适感，为手术获得成功和患者顺利康复提供有力保障。     

Lithium and haloperidol differentially alter the dynorphin A (1-8) and enkephalin levels in the neurointermediate lobe of rat pituitary

Repeated administration of the antimanic drug lithium (4 mEq/kg/day for 2, 4 or 6 days, i.p.) to rats produced a progressive decline and eventual depletion of dynorphin-A (1-8) (DYN) concentration whereas Met5-enkephalin (ENK) was only marginally decreased in the neurointermediate lobe of the pituitary (NIL). Administration of a neuroleptic haloperidol neither affected ENK and DYN levels nor influenced lithium-induced changes. The study reveals that lithium produces a preferential perturbation in the dynorphin system relative to the enkephalin system. These results taken together with other evidence, indicate that dynorphin is possibly coreleased with vasopressin following lithium administration and provide a pharmacological support to the previously described colocalization and corelease of these endogenous peptides in the NIL.
