Temporal lobe epilepsy is the most common type of epilepsy in clinic. In recent years, many studies have found that patients with temporal lobe epilepsy have different degrees of influence in executive function related fields. This influence may not only exist in a certain field of executive function, but may be affected in several fields, and may be related to the origin site of seizures. However, up to now, there is no unified standard for the composition of executive function, and it is widely accepted that the three core components of executive function are working memory, inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility/switching. In addition, the International League Against Epilepsy proposed a new definition in 2010, and epilepsy is a brain network disease. There is a close relationship between brain neural network and cognitive impairment. According to the cognitive field, the brain neural network can be divided into six types: default mode network, salience network, executive control network, dorsal attention network, somatic motor network and visual network. In recent years, there has been increasing evidence that four related internal brain networks are series in a range of cognitive processes. The executive dysfunction of temporal lobe epilepsy may be related to the changes of functional connectivity of neural network, and may be related to the left uncinate fasciculus. This article reviews the research progress related to executive function in temporal lobe epilepsy from working memory, inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility, and discusses the correlation between the changes of temporal lobe epilepsy neural network and executive function research.
Objective To explore the application effect of the four-dimensional teaching library model in the training of neuroinfection subspecialty continuing physicians, and compare it with traditional rotational training. Methods Continuing physicians who received training in the Department of Neurology of Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University between March 2021 and February 2023 were selected. The continuing physicians who received traditional rotational training between March 2021 and February 2022 would serve as the control group, and the continuing physicians who received four-dimensional teaching library model training between March 2022 and February 2023 would serve as the experimental group. The Mini-CEX scale was used to evaluate the clinical comprehensive abilities of two groups of continuing physicians. At the same time, self-made questionnaires were used to evaluate the evaluation of two groups of continuing physicians on different teaching modes. Results A total of 55 continuing physicians were included. Among them, there were 27 people in the control group and 28 people in the experimental group. There was no statistically significant difference in the comparison of general information between the two groups (P＞0.05). At the time of graduation, all items on the Mini-CEX scale in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The survey questionnaire results showed that the experimental group scored higher than the control group in terms of improving learning interest, improving self-learning ability, improving clinical thinking, improving analysis and problem-solving ability, improving doctor-patient communication ability, and increasing teamwork (P<0.05). Conclusion The application effect of the four-dimensional teaching library model in the training of neuroinfection subspecialty continuing physicians is better than that of traditional rotational training, which can significantly improve the clinical comprehensive ability of continuing physicians and is worth promoting.
Vision is an important way for human beings to interact with the outside world and obtain information. In order to research human visual behavior under different conditions, this paper uses a Gaussian mixture-hidden Markov model (GMM-HMM) to model the scanpath, and proposes a new model optimization method, time-shifting segmentation (TSS). The TSS method can highlight the characteristics of the time dimension in the scanpath, improve the pattern recognition results, and enhance the stability of the model. In this paper, a linear discriminant analysis (LDA) method is used for multi-dimensional feature pattern recognition to evaluates the rationality and the accuracy of the proposed model. Four sets of comparative trials were carried out for the model evaluation. The first group applied the GMM-HMM to model the scanpath, and the average accuracy of the classification could reach 0.507, which is greater than the opportunity probability of three classification (0.333). The second set of trial applied TSS method, and the mean accuracy of classification was raised to 0.610. The third group combined GMM-HMM with TSS method, and the mean accuracy of classification reached 0.602, which was more stable than the second model. Finally, comparing the model analysis results with the saccade amplitude (SA) characteristics analysis results, the modeling analysis method is much better than the basic information analysis method. Via analyzing the characteristics of three types of tasks, the results show that the free viewing task have higher specificity value and a higher sensitivity to the cued object search task. In summary, the application of GMM-HMM model has a good performance in scanpath pattern recognition, and the introduction of TSS method can enhance the difference of scanpath characteristics. Especially for the recognition of the scanpath of search-type tasks, the model has better advantages. And it also provides a new solution for a single state eye movement sequence.
Objective To review targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) surgery for the construction of intelligent prosthetic human-machine interface, thus providing a new clinical intervention paradigm for the functional reconstruction of residual limbs in amputees. MethodsExtensively consulted relevant literature domestically and abroad and systematically expounded the surgical requirements of intelligent prosthetics, TMR operation plan, target population, prognosis, as well as the development and future of TMR. Results TMR facilitates intuitive control of intelligent prostheses in amputees by reconstructing the “brain-spinal cord-peripheral nerve-skeletal muscle” neurotransmission pathway and increasing the surface electromyographic signals required for pattern recognition. TMR surgery for different purposes is suitable for different target populations. Conclusion TMR surgery has been certified abroad as a transformative technology for improving prosthetic manipulation, and is expected to become a new clinical paradigm for 2 million amputees in China.

Methods Three hundreds and eighty-one stroke patients were randomly divided into stroke unit group (n=186) and general ward group (n=189). The stroke unit group patients were treated with the stroke unit model designed by ourselves, while the control group patients were treated with traditional method, The clinical efficacy was compared before treatment, seven days, 15 days and 30 days after treatment. Results Improvement in neurological score was significantly better among patients treated in the SU than in the GW. NIHSS scores gradually reduce in the both groups after treatment, which were significantly lower than those in the control group on 15 days and 30 days after treatment(P=0.007,0.004). The satisfactory of relatives in the stroke unit group was better than that in the general ward group(P=0.002). Conclusion The efficacy of treatment with stroke unit model was better than that of treatment with traditional method in the stroke patients.
Objective To provide references and recommendations about emergency physician training for our country by analyzing the characteristics of emergency physicians training objective, subject, process, content, appraisal and assessment in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia. Methods Such databases as Ovid, Proquest, MDConsoult and relevant websites of national emergency medicine were searched to include literature covering guidelines and documents on emergency education and training in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia. According to the evidence-based scientific principles and methods, we graded and analyzed the included information. Results A total of 40 articles were included, covering 12 guidelines and documents, 2 reviews and 26 research documents. Each of the four countries owned a sound emergency specialist training access system especially on how they used competency as the core to design the training content, courses and appraisal and assessment system to improve overall ability and quality of emergency physicians. Conclusion Our country’s emergency physician training certainly has lagged behind those of the developed countries. We should learn from positive experience of the developed countries to standardize emergency physician training, improve the emergency physician training content and curriculum, strengthen access management and the construction of appraisal system, and cultivate the competency of emergency physicians.
