To better use the phase information to compensate the influence of blood flow, the phase unwrapping problem in susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) is studied in this paper. In order to improve the accuracy of unwrapping, this paper proposes a magnitude image-guided phase unwrapping algorithm of SWI. The basic idea is as follows: (1) reduce the influence of noise by improving the rotational invariant non-local principal component analysis method (PRI-NL-PCA); (2) extract the corresponding solid region in the phase image to avoid the influence of the background noise on the phase unwrapping method; (3) use the phase compensation method to constrain the phase image reconstructed by the K-space. Finally, the reliability of the unwrapping method is evaluated by using four kinds of statistics as quantification index: the number, mean (M), variance (Var), and positive percentage (Pos) and negative percentage (Neg) of phasic error points. By comparing the simulated data with 226 sets of true head SWI data, the results show that the proposed algorithm has high accuracy compared with the classical branch cut method and the least squares method.
Objective To study the comparability of liver function results between the two detection systems. Methods Based on the NCCLS EP9-A document, 8 fresh serum samples were collected daily for the assay of 10 routine liver function parameters by utilizing the Olympus AU1000 and Backman CX7 detection systems respectively. The results were recorded over 5 days consecutively. Linearity equation and relative deviations were calculated. The comparability between the results obtained from different detection systems was evaluated according to the systematic error at medical decision level of CLIA, 88. Results The paired t-test showed that the results of the fresh serum samples had no significant difference between the two detection systems (Pgt;0.05). Except that the systematic error of albumin at low medical decision level exceeded the allowable error, all the other systematic errors at medical decision level were acceptable. Conclusion The results of liver function are comparable between the two detection systems, and the systematic errors between the two detection systems are clinically acceptable.

Methods A total of 198 pre-correction CBCT data sets from 23 NPC patients from April 2007 to December 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. The matching areas in CBCT images were divided into up and down region of interest (ROI). For the up ROI, the superior, inferior, left and right, anterior, and posterior boundary were set parallel with sphenoid sinus up side, C4 down side, mandible outside, and 1/2 of maxillary air sinus and acanthi. For the down ROI, the lines were set parallel with C4 down side, T2-3 down side, neck outside, skin surface and acanthi respectively in all directions. All registrations were performed automatically by bony anatomy and the results were compared. Results The registration results by the up and the down ROI showed significant difference except Y direction for rotation. The translation error was (1.14±2.80),(0.47±1.41),and (0.58±3.88) mm, respectively; and the rotation error was (0.90±1.98),(0.80±2.03),and (0.68±1.90) ° in X, Y, and Z direction, respectively. 〖WTHZ〗Conclusions〖WTBZ〗There are some significant deformation errors at neck areas in NPC radiotherapy. It is important to find out the deformation and correct it with CBCT image guiding. This kind of error information may provide clues for re-planning in addition to clinical practice and the changes of clinical targets and involved organs.
The COSMIN-RoB checklist includes three sections with a total of 10 boxes, which is used to evaluate risk of bias of studies on content validity, internal structure, and other measurement properties. COSMIN classifies reliability, measurement error, criteria validity, hypothesis testing for construct validity, and responsiveness as other measurement properties, which primarily focus on the quality of the (sub)scale as a whole, rather than on the item level. Among the five measurement properties, reliability, measurement error and criteria validity are the most widely used in the studies. Therefore, this paper aims to interpret COSMIN-RoB checklist with examples to guide researchers to evaluate the risk of bias of the studies on reliability, measurement error and criteria validity of PROMs.

Methods From January 2009 to January 2010, 530 patients with T2DM were enrolled in this study, including 265 subjects taking oral hypoglycemic agents and the other 265 subjects taking intensive insulin treatment. All the subjects underwent CGM (American Medtronic MiniMed) for three days. Meanwhile, capillary glucose values through self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) were inputted four times a day for adjustment. The correlation of CGM value and capillary glucose value was analyzed by linear regression method. The consistency was analyzed by Clarke error grid. Mean absolute relative difference (MAD) was used to assess accuracy and correlated factors of MAD were also analyzed. Results ① A total of 6 350 pairs of CGM and SMBG values were collected [(9.66±3.54) mmol/L vs. 9.64±3.38) mmol/L,Pgt;0.05]. Pearson correlation analysis showed that CGM value was positively correlated with SMBG value (r=0.959,Plt;0.001). ② Clarke error grid demonstrated that 99.89% of paired SMBG-CGM values were located in zone A and zone B and the remaining seven pairs (0.11%) of glucose values were located in zone D. ③ The overall MAD value was 7.2% (5.5%-9.5%). According to the analysis of daily MAD value, MAD value decreased, while accuracy elevated gradually with monitoring time. ④ MAD value of intensive insulin treatment group was higher than that of the oral hypoglycemic agent treatment group (Plt;0.05). And stepwise multiple regression analysis indicated that MAD value had negative correlation with glycated albumin level (β=-0.134, Plt;0.01) and positive correlation with intensive insulin treatment (β= 0.117,Plt;0.05). Conclusions ① The results of CGM are accurate, and have good correlation and consistency with capillary glucose. ② Besides monitoring time, the accuracy of continuous glucose monitoring may be also associated with hypoglycemic treatment strategy.

The inverse problem of electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is seriously ill-posed, which restricts the clinical application of EIT. Regularization is an important numerical method to improve the stability of the EIT inverse problem as well as the resolution of the imaging. This paper proposes a self-diagnosis regularization method based on Tikhonov regularization and diagonal weight regularization method (DWRM). Firstly, the ill-posedness of the inverse problem is analyzed by sensitivity. Then, the performance of the self-diagnosis regularization is analyzed through the singular value theory. Finally, some simulated experiments including simulations and flume experiment are carried out and verify that the self-diagnosis regularization has better image quality and anti-noise ability than those of traditional regularization methods. The self-diagnosis regularization method weakens the ill-posedness of inverse problem of EIT and can prompt the practical application of EIT.
Objective To evaluate the accuracy of newer-generation home blood glucose meter (Accu-Check? Integra) in patients with impaired glucose regulation (IGR) and newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods A cross-sectional study was performed on 109 cases with newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes or IGR who were asked to take oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), while paired samples, that were Accu-Check? Integra in capillary blood glucose (CBG) and laboratory glucose in venous plasma glucose (VPG ), were taken simultaneously. Taking VPG as the reference value, the accuracy of the home glucose meter was assessed according to the international standardization organization (ISO), including, the accuracy was studied by means of Median absolute difference (Median AD) and Median absolute relative difference (Median RAD), the consistency of CBG and VPG was studied by Clarke Error Grid analysis, the correlation of CBG and VPG was analyzed according to liner regression analysis, and the sensitivity and specificity for hyperglycemia were also calculated. Results There were 292 VPG values paired with CBG values, among which 93.49% of CBG values met ISO home glucose meter criteria, the median AD was 7.2 mg/dL, and the median RAD was 4.76%. Paired glucose measurements from the Accu-Check Integra meter and laboratory glucose measurement demonstrated that 100% of paired points in the overall subject population fell in zones A and B of the Clarke Error Grid. The CBG value was well correlated to VPG value in the overall level, and the sensitivity and specificity were 94.6% and 95.7% respectively for hyperglycemia. Conclusion The newer-generation home blood glucose meter (Accu-Check? Integra) demonstrates a high degree of accuracy, and it can precisely report the real value of blood glucose.
