人工神经网络用于中药材雷公藤和昆明山海棠的分类识别研究

应用误差反向传播学习算法(BP算法)对中药材雷公藤和昆明山海棠浸出物的红外光谱进行分类识别。网络为3层结构,输入节点为9个,隐层节点为21个,输出节点为1。分类结果与XIM-CA法基本一致。此外,本文还考察了网络参数间的相互关系。     

Duodenal ulcer healing rates in a one-year follow-up study with ranitidine bismuth citrate and antibiotics

BACKGROUND/AIMS: The aim of this study was to determine the one-year outcome of an eradication therapy with ranitidine bismuth citrate and antibiotics in Helicobacter pylori-positive duodenal ulcer patients in respect to ulcer and Helicobacter pylori relapse rates. METHODOLOGY: This multicenter, randomized, double-blind study involved 648 duodenal ulcer patients and had been carried out to compare the following regimens: ranitidine bismuth citrate b.i.d. co-prescribed with either clarithromycin 250 mg q.i.d. or clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d. or clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d. plus metronidazole 400 mg b.i.d. for 2 weeks, followed by a further 14 days of treatment with ranitidine bismuth citrate 400 mg b.i.d. to facilitate ulcer healing. H. pylori eradication was assessed by 13C-urea breath test and histology at least 4 weeks, 26 weeks and 52 weeks after the end of treatment. Ulcer relapse and H. pylori status were assessed 4 weeks, 26 weeks and 52 weeks post-treatment or if ulcer symptoms recurred. For the remainder of the follow-up period only serious adverse events were collected. RESULTS: At 12 months data of 438 (69%) patients were evaluable. The observed H. pylori eradication rates were 88-91%. H. pylori relapse rates were 2.1% after 26 weeks and 3.9% after 52 weeks. At the week 26 visit 26 patients (5.6%) and at the week 52 visit 25 patients (5.7%) had documented gastroesophageal reflux disease. CONCLUSIONS: Our data confirm the reduction of duodenal ulcer relapses after the cure of Helicobacter pylori infection.     

复合自适应滤波器用于体感诱发电位信噪比的提高

本研究以可靠、快速提取体感诱发电位为目标,试图解决相干叠加方法既费时又不能反映体感诱发电位时变特征的缺点。运用以自适应噪声减法器和自适应增强器为基础构造的复合自适应滤波器提取体感诱发电位。仿真实验表明,运用复合自适应滤波器可实现从强噪声背景中快速提取体感诱发电位,能更快地识别体感诱发电位的潜伏期及幅值,并且系统性能稳定。     

老年人的疼痛问题

何为"老"?理解衰老的最好办法是将其视为一种从生到死的过度和渐变过程.在人们眼中,一旦到了80岁,身体就会变得很衰弱,易受伤,易残疾.但凡事都有例外,最典型的例子就是著名的黑人领袖纳尔逊.曼德拉,他虽年事已高(88岁),但他的才学、智慧、饱经磨难和乐观豁达都是少有人能及的.     

黄柏及中成药中小檗碱和巴马亭的高效液相色谱法测定

本文以正相高效液相色谱法,用窗口图解技术对色谱条件进行了优化。对黄柏及其中成药中的有效成分——小檗碱、巴马亭的提取、测定条件、标准曲线进行了研究。并对两种含黄柏的中成药样品进行了分析。其中小檗碱的回收率均在97%以上,巴马亭的回收率均在96%以上。     

Partially hydrolysed guar gum supplemented comminuted chicken diet in persistent diarrhoea: a randomised controlled trial.

BACKGROUND: Partially hydrolysed guar gum (Benefiber) added to a diet is fermented in the colon, producing short chain fatty acids, which improve intestinal function, including colonic salt and water absorption. AIMS: To evaluate the effect of Benefiber supplemented comminuted chicken diet in the treatment of persistent diarrhoea. METHODS: One hundred and sixteen children (aged 5-24 months), presenting to Dhaka Hospital with a history of watery diarrhoea for more than 14 days (persistent diarrhoea), were randomised to receive either: (1) comminuted chicken diet with Benefiber (study diet); or (2) comminuted chicken diet without Benefiber (control diet). The study period was seven days. RESULTS: Of 116 children, 57 received the study diet and 59 received the control diet. Diarrhoea resolved in a greater number of children with the study than with the control diet (46/55 (84%) v 36/58 (62%); odds ratio 3.12, 95% CI 1.19 to 8.4). Survival analysis for the duration of diarrhoea also showed a reduced duration of diarrhoea in children receiving the study diet. There was also a trend in daily stool reduction in children receiving the study diet, significant on days 4-7. CONCLUSION: Results show that Benefiber supplemented comminuted chicken diet enhances recovery of children with persistent diarrhoea, indicating its therapeutic potential.
