RESUMO
Based on the summary and reflection of the existing course construction content, this paper redesigns the course teaching to Brain Functional Imaging and forms a new curriculum construction scheme, including improving the professional teachers' ability of the teaching team by means of "internal training" + "external introduction", building an online and offline integrated teaching mode by combining online teaching resources such as course website with offline teaching (such as literature guidance, classroom discussion, comprehensive experimental design, etc.), and designing comprehensive experiments related to Electroencephalography (EEG) and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), which is driven by scientific research projects, based on the scientific research experimental platform of the teaching and research department. This construction scheme is of great significance for improving the teaching quality of the course, stimulating the learning interest of graduate students, and cultivating the comprehensive application and practical innovation ability of graduate students' brain imaging technology. And it also provides the reference for the further construction of the course and teaching reform in the future.
RESUMO
"Flipped Classroom" is a new kind of "student-centered" teaching model, which can give full play to the advantages of both sides of teaching and learning. According to this teaching model, we redesigned the teaching process, in which the students studied by themselves and built their own knowledge system. Moreover, each of them took part in three stages of experimental design including digital signal collection, analysis and processing in groups. Results have shown that this model can fully stimulate students' learning interest, not only helps students to deepen understanding of digital signal processing theory knowledge, but also strengthen the ability of autonomous learning and team collaboration. The teaching model maybe have certain reference function in comprehensive experiment teaching of Digital Signal Processing course for biomedical engineering specialty.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Xuesaitong for injection on microembolic signal (MES) and blood lipid of patients with middle cerebral artery (MCA) atherosclerotic stenosis complicated with MES positive transient ischemic attack (TIA). METHODS: A total of 98 patients with MCA atherosclerotic stenosis complicated with MES positive TIA in the Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu University of TCM during May 2015-May 2016 were divided into routine group and Xuesaitong group according to random numble table, with 49 cases in each group. Routine group received routine treatment. Xuesaitong group was additionally given Xuesaitong for injection (lyophilized) 400 mg intravenously, once a day, for consecutive 15 d, on the basis of routine treatment. The distribution of MES classification and the number of MES were observed in 2 groups before treatment, 15 d after treatment and 3rd and 6th month after treatment. The levels of TG, TC, LDL were observed before treatment and 15 d after treatment. The occurrence of ischemia event and ADR were recorded. RESULTS: Fifteen days after treatment, the distribution of MES classification in 2 groups was significantly better than before treatment; Xuesaitong group was significantly better than routine group, with statistical significance (P＜0. 05). At 3rd and 6th month after treatment, the distribution of MES classification in Xuesaitong group was significantly better than routine group; 6th month after treatment was significantly better than 3rd month after treatment, with statistical significance (P＜0. 05). Fifteen days and the 3rd, 6th month after treatment, the number of MES in 2 groups were significantly lower than before treatment and decreased as time; Xuesaitong group was significantly lower than routine group, with statistical significance (P＜0. 05). Fifteen days after treatment, TG and TC levels of 2 groups were significantly lower than before treatment; Xuesaitong group was significantly lower than routine group, with statistical significance (P＜0. 05); there was no statistical significance in the level of LDL before and after treatment (P＞0. 05). The incidence of ischemic events in routine group at 6th month after treatment was significantly higher than 3rd month after treatment, and the incidence of ischemic events in Xuesaitong group at 3rd and 6th month after treatment was significantly lower than routine group, with statistical significance (P＜0. 05). At 6th month after treatment, the incidence of ADR in 2 groups was significantly lower than 3rd month, with statistical significance (P＜0. 05). CONCLUSIONS: Based on routine treatment, Xuesaitong for injection can reduce the number of MES, reduce the incidence of ischemia events and further improve the level of blood lipid in patients with MCA atherosclerotic stenosis complicated with MES positive TIA without increasing the occurrence of ADR.
RESUMO
Objective To discuss whether Omega-3 fish oil fat emulsion has the potential protective mechanism for 7-day-old rats with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD).Methods One hundred and sixty-eight 7-day-old SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:group A (sham group),group B (Omega-3 fish oil fat emulsion group),group C (normal fat emulsion group),group D (model group),and there were 42 cases in each group.Neonatal HIBD was induced by the method of Rice.Rats were sacrificed at 1 d,3 d and 7 d after the surgery.Hippocampus was removed for Real-time PCR and Western blot test to detect Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) mRNA and protein expression.TUNEL staining comparison was done among different groups to observe the number of cellular apoptosis.Results HE staining of hippocampus CA1 area in 3 d showed that brain tissues in group A maintained normal structures;those in group D had much more brain cells with severe edema than other groups;TLR4 and NF-κB mRNA and protein expression levels in group D were higher than those in group A in 1 d (all P ＜0.05);TLR4 and NF-κB expression levels of mRNA and protein in group B (4.89 ± 0.51,9.30 ± 1.53;1.15 ±0.10,1.44 ± 0.14) were lower than those in group C (17.58 ± 2.50,20.13 ± 1.00;2.56 ± 0.10,2.82 ± 0.09) and group D (15.94-± 2.52,26.21 ± 3.00;2.34 ± 0.11,4.51 ± 0.36) in 3 d (all P ＜ 0.05),and compared with group A (6.30 ± 1.52,5.32 ± 1.06;1.32 ± 0.10,2.42 ± 0.14),there was significant difference (all P ＞ 0.05);TLR4 and NF-κB mRNA and protein expression levels in group B were lower than those in group C and group D in 7 d(all P ＜0.05),and compared with group A there was no significant difference (all P ＞ 0.05).The apoptotic cell number of brain tissues in 3 d:group B (13.67 ±2.52) were lower than those in group C (27.67 ±2.52) and group D (41.00 ±3.61) (all P ＜0.05),and compared with the group A (6.00 ±2.00),the difference was not statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Omega-3 fish oil fat emulsion plays an important role in protecting neonatal rats with HIBD.The mechanisms were likely to reduce TLR4,NF-κB and cell apoptosis levels.
