Background The purpose of the study was to investigate parents’ perceptions of antibiotic use for their children, interactions between parents and physicians regarding treatment with antibiotics, and factors associated with parents self-medicating children with antibiotics. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in vaccination clinics in two rural Chinese counties. Primary caregivers (the...
Background The erythrocyte membrane lesion is a serious diabetic complication. A number of studies suggested that n-3 fatty acid could reduce lipid peroxidation and elevate α- or γ-tocopherol contents in membrane of erythrocytes. However, evidence regarding the protective effects of flaxseed oil, a natural product rich in n-3 fatty acid, on lipid peroxidation, antioxidative capacity and membrane deformation...
In this paper, we introduce a new real-time rendering algorithm for virtual endoscopy based on GPU. The algorithm reduces the amount of data collected by the Image Memory without affecting 3-D image display accuracy. And it can be applied to compute any complex ray-generation and rendering clips in the volume rendering, making use of GPU's power of parallel computation computing and multi-data processing...
This paper presents a method which based on Fourier-Mellin transform registration algorithm to rotate the archaic epigraph images correction without reference object. In our research range, we improve the traditional methods of edge detection based on the characters of archaic epigraph images, propose the block edge detection method and the multi-scale edge detection method based on Wavelet Transform...
