Using singular value decomposition （SVD） method for soft X-ray emission and for electron cyclotron emission （ECE）, the coupling spatial structures and coupling process between these two modes are analyzed in detail. The results of SVD for ECE reveal that the phase difference between these two modes equals to zero. This is consistent with the perfect coupling condition. Finally, performing statistical analysis of r1/1, ξ1/1 and w2/1, we find that r1/1 more accurately represents the coupling strength than ξ1/1, and r1/1 is also strongly related to the （2, 1） NTM triggering, where r1/1 is the width of （1, 1） internal mode, ξ1/1 is the perturbed amplitude of （1, 1） internal mode, and w2/1 denotes the magnetic island width of （2, 1） NTM.展开更多

Aim: We report two rare cases of PCI that are complicated during the chemotherapy for pulmonary nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) disease. Case Presentation: In this report, we described two cases (a 72-year-old woman and a 60-year-old woman) of PCI that appeared during the combined chemotherapy consisting of rifampicin, ethambutol and clarithromycin. Because there were few clinical symptoms and increased inflammatory responses, the diagnosis of PCI was delayed. However, there were fortunately no severe complications in both cases. Conclusion: Respiratory physicians should be aware of the potential development of PCI in patients during the chemotherapy for pulmonary NTM disease. It is important to detect PCI in the early stage through radiological examinations to avoid severe complications.展开更多
