  • Effects of pulmonary rehabilitation training on pulmonary function in patients post-stroke: a Meta-analysis

    Objective To examine the effects of pulmonary rehabilitation training on pulmonary function in patients post-stroke. Methods We searched Cochrane Library, PubMed, ProQuest, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wangfang Database, Chinese Biomedical Database, and VIP Chinese Science and Technology Journal Database for randomized controlled trials of investigating the effects of pulmonary rehabilitation training on pulmonary function in stroke patients published before September 2018. The patients in the training group were treated with pulmonary rehabilitation, including respiratory muscle training, chest breathing, or abdominal breathing training, with or without respiratory training device. The patients in the control group received conventional stroke rehabilitation. The outcome indicators included forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), FEV1 percentage predicted (FEV1%pred), peak expiratory flow rate, maximal inspiratory pressure (PImax), maximal expiratory pressure, exercise endurance, and quality of life. Two researchers independently carried out literature retrieval and data extraction, using Physiotherapy Evidence Database scale, and standard data extraction forms adapted from Cochrane Collaboration model to evaluate the studies quality. The Meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager Version 5.3. Results Eleven studies met the study criteria with a total of 500 stroke patients, including 274 patients in the training group and 226 patients in the control group, respectively. The Meta-analysis showed that after pulmonary rehabilitation training, the values of FVC [mean difference (MD)=0.30 L, 95% confidence interval (CI)(0.26, 0.34) L, P<0.000 01], FEV1 [MD=0.28 L, 95%CI (0.25, 0.32) L, P<0.000 01], and 6-minute walking test [MD=43.43 m, 95%CI (7.92, 78.95) m, P=0.02] in the training group were significantly higher than those in the control group, as well as the change of PImax [MD=6.49 cm H2O (1 cm H2O=0.098 kPa), 95%CI (3.67, 9.32) cm H2O, P<0.000 1]. The advantages of pulmonary rehabilitation training had not been found in improving FEV1/FVC and FEV1%pred (P>0.05). Conclusions The implementation of pulmonary rehabilitation training in the way of respiratory muscle training combined with conventional rehabilitation therapy could improve two kinds of indicators of pulmonary function referring to FVC and FEV1, inspiratory muscle strength and 6-minute waking distance. The long-term effect of pulmonary rehabilitation training on stroke patients, the respiratory training mode of different prescriptions, the endurance of exercise and the quality of life need further study.

  • Research of front-end speech enhancement and beamforming algorithm based on dual microphoneforcochlear implant

    Speech enhancement methods based on microphone array adopt many microphones to record speech signal simultaneously. As spatial information is increased, these methods can increase speech recognition for cochlear implant in noisy environment. Due to the size limitation, the number of microphones used in the cochlear implant cannot be too large, which limits the design of microphone array beamforming. To balance the size limitation of cochlear implant and the spatial orientation information of the signal acquisition, we propose a speech enhancement and beamforming algorithm based on dual thin uni-directional / omni-directional microphone pairs (TP) in this paper. Each TP microphone contains two sound tubes for signal acquisition, which increase the overall spatial orientation information. In this paper, we discuss the beamforming characteristics with different gain vectors and the influence of the inter-microphone distance on beamforming, which provides valuable theoretical analysis and engineering parameters for the application of dual microphone speech enhancement technology in cochlear implants.

  • Effectiveness and Safety of Power Chain versus Nickel Titanium Coil Springs in Closing Dental Extraction Space: A Meta-Analysis

    Objective To systematically review the effectiveness and safety of power chain vs. nickel titanium coil springs in closing dental extraction space. Methods Databases including PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Chinese Biomedicine Literature Database, Chinese Scientific Journals Full-text Database, and Chinese Journal Full-text Database were searched to collect the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on comparing power chain with nickel titanium coil springs published before February 2012. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the quality of the included studies. Then meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.0 software. Results A total of 4 RCTs involving 122 patients were included. The results of meta-analyses showed that there was a significant difference in the rate of space closure between the two groups (MD=0.30 mm per month, 95%CI 0.17 to 0.44, Plt;0.000 1); The results of subgroup analyses indicated that, both high-quality trials (MD=0.20, 95%CI 0.07 to 0.34, P=0.003) and low quality trials (MD=0.40, 95%CI 0.30 to 0.50, Plt;0.000 01) showed no significant difference in the rate of space closure. Conclusion Current clinical evidence indicates nickel titanium coil spring is superior to power chain in the rate of space closure, but its long-term effect still needs to be proved by more large-scale RCTs.

  • Comparative Analysis on Survival Condition after Total Gastrectomy and Proximal Gastrectomy for Gastric Cardia Cancer

    Objective To study the clinical significance of total gastrectomy in treatment for gastric cardia cancer.Methods The clinical data of 118 patients with gastric cardia cancer underwent operation from May 1997 to October 2012 in the Department of General Surgery of Baiyin Hospital, Affiliated to Lanzhou University were analyzed retrospe-ctively. Among these 118 patients, there were 65 patients treated by total gastrectomy (total gastrectomy group) and 53patients treated by proximal gastrectomy (proximal gastrectomy group). The postoperative complications, survival rate,quality of life, and nutrition indexes were compared after operation between the total gastrectomy group and the prox-imal gastrectomy group. Results ① The incidence of postoperative complications was 7.7% (5/65) and 13.2% (7/53) in the total gastrectomy group and the proximal gastrectomy group, respectively, the difference was not statistically signi-ficant (χ2=0.972, P=0.248). ② 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rate after operation were 63.1%, 46.2%, and 30.8% in thetotal gastrectomy group;which were 66.0%, 36.9%, and 18.5% in the proximal gastrectomy group. The difference of 1-year survival rate after operation was not statistically significant in two groups (χ2=0.193, P=0.402), the 3- and the 5-year survival rates of the total gastrectong group were significantly higher than those of the proximal gastrectony group (χ2=4.508, P=0.022;χ2=30.271, P=0.000). ③ The Spitzer quality of life score had no difference at the different timeafter operation in two groups (P>0.05). Compared with the proximal gastrectomy group, the points of heartburn, swallo-wing problem, appetite, and food intake on 12 months after operation in the total gastrectomy group were higher (P<0.05), the points of the other indexes had no significant differences (P>0.05). ④ The nutrition indexes after operationhad no differences at the different time after operation in two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Total gastrectomy in treatment for gastric cardia cancer would not increase complications, also can improve 5-year survival for patients withⅠ-Ⅲ stage, and survival condition after operation is also much better than that of proximal gastrectomy.

  • Measurement and performance analysis of functional neural network

    The measurement of network is one of the important researches in resolving neuronal population information processing mechanism using complex network theory. For the quantitative measurement problem of functional neural network, the relation between the measure indexes, i.e. the clustering coefficient, the global efficiency, the characteristic path length and the transitivity, and the network topology was analyzed. Then, the spike-based functional neural network was established and the simulation results showed that the measured network could represent the original neural connections among neurons. On the basis of the former work, the coding of functional neural network in nidopallium caudolaterale (NCL) about pigeon's motion behaviors was studied. We found that the NCL functional neural network effectively encoded the motion behaviors of the pigeon, and there were significant differences in four indexes among the left-turning, the forward and the right-turning. Overall, the establishment method of spike-based functional neural network is available and it is an effective tool to parse the brain information processing mechanism.

  • Distribution and influencing factors of enlarged perivascular spaces in acute ischemic stroke

    Objectives To observe the distribution of enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVSs) in acute ischemic stroke, and determine the factors that influence basal ganglia and centrum semiovale EPVSs. Methods We prospectively registered consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke at the neurological wards of Jianyang Municipal People’s Hospital and West China Hospital of Sichuan University from February 1st to November 1st, 2014. Patients with ischemic stroke within 14 days of symptom onset, having magnetic resonance image (MRI) scan were included. Basal ganglia and centrum semiovale EPVSs, white matter hyperintensity, cerebral atrophy and lacunar infraction were rated using validated scales by reading MRI. Clinical information was obtained using standardized forms. The distribution of EPVSs was observed and analyzed. The evalution of EPVSs was analyzed in relation to age, vascular risk factor, cerebral atrophy, white matter hyperintensity, lacunar infraction, etc, by using univariate and multivariate logistical regression to evaluate the influencing factors for basal ganglia and centrum semiovale EPVSs. Results A total of 170 patients with acute ischemic stroke within 14 days from onset were included; in whom, 97.6% had EPVSs in basal ganglia and all had EPVSs in centrum semiovale. The most common scores of basal ganglia EPVSs were 1 point and 2 points. The most common scores of centrum semiovale EPVSs were 2 and 3 points. In logistic regression, age [odds ratio (OR)=1.043, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.015, 1.071), P=0.002], periventricular white matter hyperintensity [OR=4.203, 95%CI (1.525, 11.583), P=0.006] and hypertension [OR=3.965, 95%CI (1.927, 8.157), P<0.001] were independently associated with increased severity of basal ganglia EPVSs. Only periventricular white matter hyperintensity [OR=2.248, 95%CI (1.054, 4.795), P=0.036] was independently associated with increased severity of centrum semiovale EPVSs in logistic regression. Conclusions EPVSs are common in ischemic stroke. There is a lower prevalence of EPVS in the basal ganglia compared with the centrum semiovale. Compared with centrum semiovale EPVSs, basal ganglia EPVSs are more associated with hypertensive cerebral small vessel disease, which may be a marker for hypertensive cerebral small vessel disease.
