生理信号检测中的同步工频陷波器

市电50Hz干扰一直是生理信号检测过程中最难以克服的问题之一。本文叙述了利用同步滤波器技术克服50Hz干扰的方法。同步滤波器可以自动跟踪市电频率的变化且具有极高Q值和理想的梳状滤波特性,而元件的灵敏度却很低,因而很容易获得40dB以上的陷波效果,可以从根本上克服50Hz干扰而几乎对有用信号毫无影响。     

中国人不同C4基因型时血中C4浓度的定量检测

用神经氨酸酶及羧肽酶B处理血浆,依次经C4高压琼脂糖电泳、免疫固定、薄层激光扫描等步骤,并结合血浆免疫火箭电泳定量法对我国武汉地区随机人群的血浆C4总量及C4两种同种型,主要别型,单、双QO,重复座位等时的血浆C4含量进行了检测与分析。结果发现:遗传因素明显影响血浆C4水平,因而在群体中表现宽广的C4浓度范围,特别在有C4QO与C4重复基因座位时差异特别明显。这一研究提示,不同的C4基因型,循环C4含量表现明显差异。临床上检测C4含量时应该考虑患者的C4基因型别。     

Increase of prolactin mRNA in the rat hypothalamus after intracerebroventricular injection of VIP or PACAP

Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), the structurally homologous pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide (PACAP) and the pituitary hormone, prolactin (PRL) enhance rapid eye movement sleep (REMS). VIP and PACAP are both inducers of PRL gene expression and release in the pituitary gland. Little is known about PRL regulation in the brain although it is hypothesized that the REMS-promoting activity of i.c.v. administered VIP may be mediated via the activation of cerebral PRL. To test whether VIP or PACAP in fact increase intracerebral mRNA, the peptides (VIP: 30 or 300 pmol; PACAP: 220 pmol) were injected i.c.v. into rats at dark onset. 1 h later, cDNA was synthesized from purified hypothalamic mRNA. Standardized amounts were analysed for PRL using the polymerase chain reaction followed by Southern blotting and hybridization. Compared with β-actin mRNA levels, both VIP and PACAP increased PRL mRNA levels in a dose-dependent fashion though VIP was more effective on a molar basis. The previously reported alternatively spliced PRL mRNA (lacking exon 4) was not detected. The data support the hypothesis that the REMS-promoting activity of central VIP and PACAP might be mediated by cerebral PRL.     

p53基因与肝癌

p53肿瘤抑制基因突变与多数恶性肿瘤的发生发展有关,包括肝细胞癌(hepatocelluar carcinoma,HCC)在内的人类恶性肿瘤中至少有50%发生了p53基因改变。因此,以正常p53基因治疗肿瘤就成了研究热点,随着介入放射学(inter-ventional radiology)向纵深发展,经介入放射方法进行肝癌的基因治疗令人关注。本文介绍了p53基因的结构与功能,其与肝癌的病理联系以及在肝癌治疗中的应用。     

The use of 3D surface fitting for robust polyp detection and classification in CT colonography

In this paper we describe the development of a computationally efficient computer-aided detection (CAD) algorithm based on the evaluation of the surface morphology that is employed for the detection of colonic polyps in computed tomography (CT) colonography. Initial polyp candidate voxels were detected using the surface normal intersection values. These candidate voxels were clustered using the normal direction, convexity test, region growing and Gaussian distribution. The local colonic surface was classified as polyp or fold using a feature normalized nearest neighborhood classifier. The main merit of this paper is the methodology applied to select the robust features derived from the colon surface that have a high discriminative power for polyp/fold classification. The devised polyp detection scheme entails a low computational overhead (typically takes 2.20 min per dataset) and shows 100% sensitivity for phantom polyps greater than 5 mm. It also shows 100% sensitivity for real polyps larger than 10 mm and 91.67% sensitivity for polyps between 5 to 10 mm with an average of 4.5 false positives per dataset. The experimental data indicates that the proposed CAD polyp detection scheme outperforms other techniques that identify the polyps using features that sample the colon surface curvature especially when applied to low-dose datasets.
