  • A non-contact continuous blood pressure measurement method based on video stream

    Hypertension is the primary disease that endangers human health. A convenient and accurate blood pressure measurement method can help to prevent the hypertension. This paper proposed a continuous blood pressure measurement method based on facial video signal. Firstly, color distortion filtering and independent component analysis were used to extract the video pulse wave of the region of interest in the facial video signal, and the multi-dimensional feature extraction of the pulse wave was preformed based on the time-frequency domain and physiological principles; Secondly, an integrated feature selection method was designed to extract the universal optimal feature subset; After that, we compared the single person blood pressure measurement models established by Elman neural network based on particle swarm optimization, support vector machine (SVM) and deep belief network; Finally, we used SVM algorithm to build a general blood pressure prediction model, which was compared and evaluated with the real blood pressure value. The experimental results showed that the blood pressure measurement results based on facial video were in good agreement with the standard blood pressure values. Comparing the estimated blood pressure from the video with standard blood pressure value, the mean absolute error (MAE) of systolic blood pressure was 4.9 mm Hg with a standard deviation (STD) of 5.9 mm Hg, and the MAE of diastolic blood pressure was 4.6 mm Hg with a STD of 5.0 mm Hg, which met the AAMI standards. The non-contact blood pressure measurement method based on video stream proposed in this paper can be used for blood pressure measurement.

  • Effect of Lymph Node-Targeted Chemotherapy with Carbon Nanoparticles Absorbing 5-Fluorouracil on Expressions of bcl-2, bax and Caspase-3 in Gastric Cancer Tissues and Metastatic Lymph Nodes

    Objective To determine whether lymph node-targeted chemotherapy with carbon nanoparticles absorbing 5-FU affects expressions of bcl-2, bax and caspase-3 in gastric cancer tissues, metastatic lymph nodes and normal gastric mucosa. Methods Twenty-eight patients with gastric cancer in our department were divided into lymph node-targeted chemotherapy (LNTC) group and control group from October 2005 to August 2006. The patients were treated with carbon nanoparticles absorbing 5-FU before operation in LNTC group and those were operated directly in control group. The gastric cancer tissues, metastatic lymph nodes and normal gastric mucosa were collected after operation. The expressions of bcl-2, bax and caspase-3 in those tissues were determined by immunohistochemical technique. Results In LNTC group, the positive expression rate of bcl-2 in gastric cancer tissues and metastatic lymph nodes was significantly lower than those in control group (28.6% vs . 78.6% , 25.0% vs . 70.0% , P < 0.05), the positive expression rate of bax (85.7% vs . 28.6% , 80.0% vs . 30.0% ) and caspase-3 (57.1% vs . 14.3% , 55.0% vs . 15.0% ) in gastric cancer tissues and metastatic lymph nodes was significantly higher than those in control group ( P < 0.05). The positive expression rate of bcl-2, bax and caspase-3 in normal gastric mucosa was not significantly different between two groups ( P > 0.05). Conclusion The lymph node-targeted chemotherapy with carbon nanoparticles absorbing 5-FU can down-regulate the expression of bcl-2 and up-regulate the expression of bax and caspase-3 in gastric cancer tissues and metastatic lymph nodes, and therefore by affecting the expression levels of these apoptosis molecules may be one of the ways to induce tumor cell apoptosis.

  • Design and support performance evaluation of medical multi-position auxiliary support exoskeleton mechanism

    Aiming at the status of muscle and joint damage caused on surgeons keeping surgical posture for a long time, this paper designs a medical multi-position auxiliary support exoskeleton with multi-joint mechanism by analyzing the surgical postures and conducting conformational studies on different joints respectively. Then by establishing a human-machine static model, this study obtains the joint torque and joint force before and after the human body wears the exoskeleton, and calibrates the strength of the exoskeleton with finite element analysis software. The results show that the maximum stress of the exoskeleton is less than the material strength requirements, the overall deformation is small, and the structural strength of the exoskeleton meets the use requirements. Finally, in this study, subjects were selected to participate in the plantar pressure test and biomechanical simulation with the man-machine static model, and the results were analyzed in terms of plantar pressure, joint torque and joint force, muscle force and overall muscle metabolism to assess the exoskeleton support performance. The results show that the exoskeleton has better support for the whole body and can reduce the musculoskeletal burden. The exoskeleton mechanism in this study better matches the actual working needs of surgeons and provides a new paradigm for the design of medical support exoskeleton mechanism.

  • Prediction and influencing factors analysis of bronchopneumonia inpatients’ total hospitalization expenses based on BP neural network and support vector machine models

    ObjectiveTo predict the total hospitalization expenses of bronchopneumonia inpatients in a tertiay hospital of Sichuan Province through BP neural network and support vector machine models, and analyze the influencing factors.MethodsThe home page information of 749 cases of bronchopneumonia discharged from a tertiay hospital of Sichuan Province in 2017 was collected and compiled. The BP neural network model and the support vector machine model were simulated by SPSS 20.0 and Clementine softwares respectively to predict the total hospitalization expenses and analyze the influencing factors.ResultsThe accuracy rate of the BP neural network model in predicting the total hospitalization expenses was 81.2%, and the top three influencing factors and their importances were length of hospital stay (0.477), age (0.154), and discharge department (0.083). The accuracy rate of the support vector machine model in predicting the total hospitalization expenses was 93.4%, and the top three influencing factors and their importances were length of hospital stay (0.215), age (0.196), and marital status (0.172), but after stratified analysis by Mantel-Haenszel method, the correlation between marital status and total hospitalization expenses was not statistically significant (χ2=0.137, P=0.711).ConclusionsThe BP neural network model and the support vector machine model can be applied to predicting the total hospitalization expenses and analyzing the influencing factors of patients with bronchopneumonia. In this study, the prediction effect of the support vector machine is better than that of the BP neural network model. Length of hospital stay is an important influencing factor of total hospitalization expenses of bronchopneumonia patients, so shortening the length of hospital stay can significantly lighten the economic burden of these patients.

  • Construction of a prediction model for induction of labor based on a small sample of clinical indicator data

    Because of the diversity and complexity of clinical indicators, it is difficult to establish a comprehensive and reliable prediction model for induction of labor (IOL) outcomes with existing methods. This study aims to analyze the clinical indicators related to IOL and to develop and evaluate a prediction model based on a small-sample of data. The study population consisted of a total of 90 pregnant women who underwent IOL between February 2023 and January 2024 at the Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Healthcare Hospital, and a total of 52 clinical indicators were recorded. Maximal information coefficient (MIC) was used to select features for clinical indicators to reduce the risk of overfitting caused by high-dimensional features. Then, based on the features selected by MIC, the support vector machine (SVM) model based on small samples was compared and analyzed with the fully connected neural network (FCNN) model based on large samples in deep learning, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was given. By calculating the MIC score, the final feature dimension was reduced from 55 to 15, and the area under curve (AUC) of the SVM model was improved from 0.872 before feature selection to 0.923. Model comparison results showed that SVM had better prediction performance than FCNN. This study demonstrates that SVM successfully predicted IOL outcomes, and the MIC feature selection effectively improves the model’s generalization ability, making the prediction results more stable. This study provides a reliable method for predicting the outcome of induced labor with potential clinical applications.

  • Application of medial column support in the treatment of proximal humeral fractures

    Open reduction and internal fixation with plate and screw is one of the most widely used surgical methods in the treatment of proximal humeral fractures in the elderly. In recent years, more and more studies have shown that it is very important to strengthen the medial column support of the proximal humerus during the surgery. At present, orthopedists often use bone graft, bone cement, medial support screw and medial support plate to strengthen the support of the medial column of the proximal humerus when applying open reduction and internal fixation with plate and screw to treat proximal humeral fractures. Therefore, the methods of strengthening medial column support for proximal humerus fractures and their effects on maintaining fracture reduction, reducing postoperative complications and improving functional activities of shoulder joints after operation are reviewed in this paper. It aims to provide a certain reference for the individualized selection of medial support methods according to the fracture situation in the treatment of proximal humeral fractures.

  • The Effect of Full Nutritional Management Model on Perioperative Nutritional Status in Patients with Head and Neck Malignancies

    ObjectiveTo explore the effect of full nutritional management pattern on perioperative nutritional status in patients with head and neck malignancies. MethodsSixty-four patients with head and neck cancer treated in our department between March 2012 and June 2013 were randomly divided into control group and study group with 32 in each. The control group received conventional dietary guidance, while patients in the study group were given full nutritional management. Nutritional Risk Screening Scale 2002 (NRS-2002) was used for nutrition screening and assessment before surgery (after admission) and after surgery (3 days after surgery). The study group received full nutritional support, along with nutrition-related physical examination and biochemical tests, and observation of postoperative complications, and hospital stay and costs were also observed. ResultsNutritional risk existed in 29.7%-48.4% of the head and neck cancer patients during various stages of the perioperative period. Through the full nutritional support, patients in the study group had a significantly lower risk than those in the control group (P<0.01). Body mass index, triceps skinfold thickness, mid-arm muscle circumference, prealbumin, and creatinine in the study group were significantly more improved compared with the control group (P<0.01). No significant difference was detected in blood urea and serum albumin between the two groups. Postoperative complications in the study group was significantly lower (P<0.05), and hospital stay and costs were significantly lower than the control group (P<0.001). ConclusionFull nutritional management pattern can significantly improve the perioperative nutritional status in head and neck cancer patients. Early detection of nutritional risk and malnutrition (foot) in the patients and carrying out normal and scientific nutrition intervention are helpful in the rehabilitation of these patients. We suggest that qualified hospitals should carry out the full nutritional management model managed by a Nutrition Support Team for patients with malignancies.

  • ST segment morphological classification based on support vector machine multi feature fusion

    ST segment morphology is closely related to cardiovascular disease. It is used not only for characterizing different diseases, but also for predicting the severity of the disease. However, the short duration, low energy, variable morphology and interference from various noises make ST segment morphology classification a difficult task. In this paper, we address the problems of single feature extraction and low classification accuracy of ST segment morphology classification, and use the gradient of ST surface to improve the accuracy of ST segment morphology multi-classification. In this paper, we identify five ST segment morphologies: normal, upward-sloping elevation, arch-back elevation, horizontal depression, and arch-back depression. Firstly, we select an ST segment candidate segment according to the QRS wave group location and medical statistical law. Secondly, we extract ST segment area, mean value, difference with reference baseline, slope, and mean squared error features. In addition, the ST segment is converted into a surface, the gradient features of the ST surface are extracted, and the morphological features are formed into a feature vector. Finally, the support vector machine is used to classify the ST segment, and then the ST segment morphology is multi-classified. The MIT-Beth Israel Hospital Database (MITDB) and the European ST-T database (EDB) were used as data sources to validate the algorithm in this paper, and the results showed that the algorithm in this paper achieved an average recognition rate of 97.79% and 95.60%, respectively, in the process of ST segment recognition. Based on the results of this paper, it is expected that this method can be introduced in the clinical setting in the future to provide morphological guidance for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases in the clinic and improve the diagnostic efficiency.
