Due to the high complexity and subject variability of motor imagery electroencephalogram, its decoding is limited by the inadequate accuracy of traditional recognition models. To resolve this problem, a recognition model for motor imagery electroencephalogram based on flicker noise spectrum (FNS) and weighted filter bank common spatial pattern ( w FBCSP) was proposed. First, the FNS method was used to analyze the motor imagery electroencephalogram. Using the second derivative moment as structure function, the ensued precursor time series were generated by using a sliding window strategy, so that hidden dynamic information of transition phase could be captured. Then, based on the characteristic of signal frequency band, the feature of the transition phase precursor time series and reaction phase series were extracted by w FBCSP, generating features representing relevant transition and reaction phase. To make the selected features adapt to subject variability and realize better generalization, algorithm of minimum redundancy maximum relevance was further used to select features. Finally, support vector machine as the classifier was used for the classification. In the motor imagery electroencephalogram recognition, the method proposed in this study yielded an average accuracy of 86.34%, which is higher than the comparison methods. Thus, our proposed method provides a new idea for decoding motor imagery electroencephalogram.

Objective: To compare the difference of intra-abdominal infection between intracorporeal anastomosis (IA) and extracorporeal anastomosis (EA) in patients undergoing laparoscopic right hemicolectomy within postoperative 30 days., Methods: Clinical date of right colon cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic right hemicolectomy at the Department of Colorectal Surgery, PUMCH from January 1st, 2013 to October 31st, 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with stage IV cancers which could not be radically resected, emergency operation and conversion to open surgery were excluded. The intracorporeal anastomosis and extracorporeal anastomosis were compared in the items of operation time, postoperative infection and postoperative hospital stay., Results: A total of 194 patients were enrolled in the study, including 73 patients with IA and 121 patients with EA. No significant differences were found in gender, age, previous operation history, tumor site and T stage of the tumor between two groups (all P>0.05). There were also no significant differences in mean operative time (162.4 minutes vs. 167.7 minutes, P=0.257), time to first flatus (3.3 days vs. 3.4 days, P=0.744), number of harvested lymph nodes (30.3 nodes vs. 33.8 nodes, P=0.071) and postoperative hospital stay (7 days vs. 7 days, P=0.067) between two groups. The incidence of intra-abdominal infection in patients with IA was significantly higher than that in those with EA [13.7%(10/73) vs. 1.7%(2/121), P=0.001], while the differences of the incidence of wound infection [1.4%(1/73) vs. 3.3%(4/121), P=0.652], respiratory infection [1.4%(1/73) vs. 3.3%(4/121), P=0.652] and urinary tract infection [2.7%(2/73) vs. 0.8%(1/121), P=0.558] were not significant., Conclusion: Compared with EA, IA may increase the risk of intra-abdominal infection in patients undergoing laparoscopic right hemicolectomy.
