Methods: A total of 60 patients with KOA due to deficiency of liver and kidney who were admitted to No. 1 Department of Orthopedics in Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine of Guangdong Province from June 2019 to June 2021 were selected as the study subjects and randomized into treatment group and control group based on simple random number table, 30 cases in each group. Treatment group received oral administration of Xi Sanzang Decoction concomitant with auricular-plaster therapy using magnetic beads, while control group received Imrecoxib Tablets. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) and Lysholm and ROM knee score scale before and after treatment, clinical efficacy after treatment, and the recurrence rate one month after treatment discontinuation were compared between two groups 4 weeks later. Results: After treatment, the overall response rate was 96.66% in treatment group, evidently higher than the 86.66% in control group, and there was significant difference (P<0.01). After treatment, VAS score, stiffness score, ADL score and WOMAC total score decreased notably after treatment in both groups (P<0.01), which decreased more significantly in treatment group than those in control group (P<0.05). After treatment, ROM score and Lysholm score increased prominently after treatment in both groups (P<0.01), which increased more significantly in treatment group than those in control group (P<0.05). Treatment group was markedly lower than control group in the recurrence rate one month after drug discontinuation, and there was significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion: Xi Sanzang Decoction concomitant with auricular-plaster therapy using magnetic beads for the treatment of KOA due to deficiency of liver and kidney has certain efficacy and can improve the knee function and mobility and control medical condition with good safety.","PeriodicalId":6774,"journal":{"name":"2021 11th International Conference on Information Technology in Medicine and Education (ITME)","volume":"1 1","pages":"357-363"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79989031","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: Six patients with CU who met the requirements were recruited, and the changes in the degree of wind mass and itching at different time points were assessed using the Urticaria Activity Score (UAS), the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score of pruritus intensity, and the Dermatologic Disease Quality of Life Index (DLQI). The differential metabolites in the serum of patients before and after the treatment were further analyzed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry duplex (LC/MS) and non-targeted metabolomics analysis. Results: Compared with baseline scores, UAS, VAS, and DLQI scores decreased significantly in six patients after the treatment, with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). Results also suggested that stabbing and releasing blood for CU could down-regulate lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) in patients' serum. Conclusion: The combination of piercing and bloodletting with auricular acupressure can effectively improve the life quality of CU patients through lowering LPC in serum, and thus alleviating the clinical symptoms and improving the cure rate of CU patients.","PeriodicalId":6774,"journal":{"name":"2021 11th International Conference on Information Technology in Medicine and Education (ITME)","volume":"32 1","pages":"439-445"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81186094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most good deep neural networks now employ convolution operators for feature extraction, however due to convolution spatially agnostic and channel-specific, they lose their capacity to deal with diverse spaces and visual modes. As a result, this article uses a new operator involution based on the inverse con-volution operator's design principle, which is com-bined with the particle swarm optimization algorithm's (PSO) high precision and quick convergence features, as well as the variable length encoding approach. Convolution operator problems can be solved, and the most effective deep neural network structure for the image classification problem can be generated automatically. Experiments demonstrate that the neu-ral network structure created by the method presented in this study outperforms several similar algorithms in terms of recognition accuracy and number of pa-rameters generated, as well as saving a lot of time and computer resources.","PeriodicalId":6774,"journal":{"name":"2021 11th International Conference on Information Technology in Medicine and Education (ITME)","volume":"28 1","pages":"168-173"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84544757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In which various feature selection algorithms have been proposed to select informative features for hierarchical classification. How-ever, existing hierarchical feature selection algorithms consider that the feature space of data is completely obtained in advance, and neglect the uncertainty and dynamism, i.e., feature arrives dynamically in an online manner. In this paper, we present an online streaming feature selection framework with hierarchical structure. First, we apply the closeness matrix between internal nodes to the Relief algorithm, which can calculate the weights of the dynamic features. Second, significant features are dynamically selected for each internal node by considering the hierarchical relationships and feature weights between nodes in the tree structure. Moreover, we perform redundant analysis of features by calculating the covariance between features, and then obtain a superior online feature subset for each internal node. Finally, the proposed algorithm is compared with six online streaming feature selection methods on six hierarchical data sets. The experimental results prove that our algorithm can improve the classification accuracy of the classifier by 10% compared to the suboptimal algorithms, which indicates that the algorithm outperforms other comparative algorithms in hierarchical data sets.","PeriodicalId":6774,"journal":{"name":"2021 11th International Conference on Information Technology in Medicine and Education (ITME)","volume":"1 1","pages":"140-145"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82962993","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
