A method is proposed to distinguish patients with schizophrenia from healthy controls based on data measured by functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) during a cognitive task, which combines principal component analysis (PCA) and support vector machine (SVM). Firstly, a data reduction technique is applied prior to PCA, and then PCA is used to extract features on oxygenated hemoglobin (oxy-Hb)...
We report on an experimental exploration of ex vivo measurements and real-time monitoring of the motions of heart wall for perfused rat hearts, by employing a surface-contact type of electromechanical probes based on piezoelectric transduction. In a hybrid experimental apparatus consisting of a conventional heart perfusion system and external electromechanical probing devices and circuitry, prototyped...
The gene encoding 34kDa protein gene from Mycobacterium paratuberculosis C-2, chromosomal DNA was amplified by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), the PCR product was approximately 897bp DNA segment. The PCR product was cloned into pGEM-T vector and the cloning plasmid pGEM-T-34 was constructed successfully. The purified 34kDa protein gene was subcloned into the expression vector pET28a(+), and...
The purpose of this paper was to find some feature pattern which may be used in diagnosis of blood stasis syndrome (BSS, a unique concept of traditional Chinese medicine) with myocardial ischemia. After establishing an animal model of Chinese experimental miniature swine, 7 indicators in plasma, e.g. troponin T (cTNT), heat shock protein 27 (HSP27), cytochrome C (Cyt C), endothelin-1 (ET-1), calcitonin...
Objectives: to screen anti-HIV agents from telomerase restrictors(TRs); Method: Selection of the maximum concentration of telomerase restrictor with minimum toxicity by means of MTT proliferation determination, and screening of anti-HIV agents by means of determining CEM-GFP fluorescence with FACS and through INNOTEST P24 HIV Antigen mAb EIISA. Results: Two telomerase restrictors were demonstrated...
The coronary artery disease is a major cause of deaths in the western world. One indicator for coronary artery disease (CAD) is coronary artery calcification (CAC). An accurate and reproducible scheme is desired to monitor the progression of patient's coronary calcification in follow-up studies. Traditional approaches for CAC estimation lack to provide accurate and reproducible results. In This work,...
