中医舌象计算机识别研究的现状分析

从静态舌图像计算机识别研究的关键环节出发,对当前的研究现状进行了分析.认为在舌图像的采集方面有必要引入正交设计、图像质量评价等方法以筛选出高标准、统一、实用的图像采集条件;图像分割研究可以考虑从多角度入手,综合使用多种分割方法,取长补短,以提高分割效果;同时采用Delphi评价法、多中心的网上专家判别等手段,大样本集中专家经验,综合各家的辨舌经验,建立科学规范的舌象诊断标准;当前舌象识别研究的热点主要集中在舌的颜色领域,研究的方向有待向颜色以外的其他方面拓展,并最终由定性向定量转化,而实现舌诊内容的综合判别将是今后努力的方向.     

Delayed sleep phase syndrome: A placebo-controlled cross-over study on the effects of melatonin administered five hours before the individual dim light melatonin onset

In a double-blind placebo-controlled cross-over study, 30 patients with Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome (DSPS) were included, of whom 25 finished the study. Melatonin 5 mg was administered during two weeks in a double-blind setting and two weeks in an open setting successively or interrupted by two weeks of placebo. The study's impact was assessed by measurements of the 24-h curves of endogenous melatonin production and rectal temperature (n=14), polysomnography (n=22), actigraphy (n=13), sleep log (n=22), and subjective sleep quality (n=25). Mean dim light melatonin onset (DLMO) (±SD), before treatment, occurred at 23.17 hours (±138 min). Melatonin was administered five hours before the individual DLMO. After treatment, the onset of the nocturnal melatonin profile was significantly advanced by approximately 1.5 hour. Body temperature trough did not advance significantly. During melatonin use, actigraphy showed a significant advance of sleep onset and polysomnography, a significant decreased sleep latency. Sleep architecture was not influenced. During melatonin treatment patients felt significantly more refreshed in the morning. These results show that analysis of DLMO of patients suffering from DSPS is important both for diagnosis and therapy. These results are discussed in terms of the biochemistry of the pineal.     

Limitations of a thermal camera in measuring surface temperature of laser-irradiated tissues

Thermal cameras are used in research laboratories to measure tissue temperature during laser irradiation. This study was an evaluation of the accuracy of a 3-5 microns thermal camera and two 8-12 microns cameras in detecting the maximum temperatures of small targets. The size of the targets was within the range of laser spot diameters which are used for vessel welding, angioplasty, and dermatology. The response to a sharp thermal edge was measured and analyzed for the three cameras, which had a scanning rate of 30 frames per second. The response of the 3-5 microns camera to reference black body targets of different sizes was also studied. It was found that the detector system required an average of 2.44 microseconds to reach 90% of maximum step response for the 8-12 microns system and 5.85 microseconds for the 3-5 microns system. With a 3 x telescope and a 9.5 inch focal distance close-up lens, the 3-5 microns camera underestimated the temperature of targets smaller than 2.0 mm because of its slow detector response. Although the 8-12 microns camera provides more accurate measurements due to its faster detector response, it still underestimates the temperature of targets smaller than 900 microns, when similar magnification and focal distance are used. Methods to compensate for the inaccuracies are discussed, including empirical correction factors and the inverse filtering technique.

目的通过建立完全性睡眠剥夺的幼鼠模型,探讨短期完全性睡眠剥夺对幼鼠体温调节及生长的影响。方法2005-01-03将上海交通大学附属新华医院儿科研究所12只出生后3周刚断奶的雄性幼鼠,随机分为试验组和对照组。采用小站台水环境的方法对幼鼠进行48h的睡眠剥夺。睡眠剥夺前、24h及48h后,分别进行体温、体重及进食量的监测,并计算日能耗,睡眠剥夺结束后处死幼鼠并对重要脏器进行称量。结果实验结果表明48h睡眠剥夺后,两组幼鼠体温均出现随时间变化特点,在睡眠剥夺24h后增高,48h后出现体温下降;睡眠剥夺后试验组幼鼠体重明显低于对照组,而试验组的进食量在48h后明显多于对照组;在日能量消耗的比较中,试验组在24h睡眠剥夺后的能耗明显高于对照组;睡眠剥夺48h后各器官重量仅双肺重量与体重的比值在两组间存在差异。结论幼鼠完全性睡眠剥夺的早期即出现体温显著下降,较早显现体温调节中枢的失衡,并且体格发育受到显著影响。

Intracerebral temperature monitoring in severely head injured patients

Summary In a series of 6 severely head injured patients, intraventricular as well as rectal, bladder and jugular vein temperature is recorded. The relationship between these temperatures in different conditions is evaluated. Intracerebral temperature is 0.5±0.2 °C (mean ± SD) higher than bladder temperature except in conditions such as brain death. It is concluded that rectal temperature is not representative and therefore not a good alternative to the measurement of brain temperature. More data on human intracerebral temperature are mandatory as well as prospective studies correlating intracerebral temperature with final outcome in head injury.

Temperature-controlled radiofrequency catheter ablation of AV conduction: first clinical experience

A new technique for catheter ablation of atrioventricular (AV)conduction, using temperature-controlled radiofrequency energyand a bipolar asymmetrical electrode configuration, was appliedto 12 patients (mean age, 48 ± 15 years; range, 18–69years) with medically refractory atrioventricular nodal reentranttachycardia (AVNRT) or rapid atrial rhythms. The energy sourcewas a 500 kHz generator with automatic power regulation to apreselected temperature of 80 °C. A specially designed 7F bipolar asymmetric thermo-catheter was used for ablation inall cases. The endpoints of the procedure were: first-degreeAV block in patients with AVN R T and third-degree block inpatients with atrial fibrillation or flutter. Energy was appliedover a range of 1–14 times per patient. After a mean follow-upof 8±4 months, third- or first degree AV block persistedin eight patients. In comparison to constant-power radiofrequencyablation, where impedance rises are commonly observed, no impedancerise or coating of the electrode occurred during any of the97 energy applications in this study. Variable wall contactof the electrode was identified in 20 of 97 applications bya slow temperature rise or a drop in temperature and frequentpower adjustments. Thus, monitoring temperature and automaticpower regulation may help to reduce the total delivered energy.Temperature control during radiofrequency energy avoids coagulumformation and consequently the associated potential hazardsof constant-power application.
