The topology structure of the rectifier circuit is introduced and the double closed-loop control strategy in three-phase stationary coordinate system is analyzed. For the deficiency of control strategy, the control strategy in two-phase synchronous rotating coordinate system is proposed. This makes the independent control of active current and reactive current to be realized. The simulation model of the PWM rectifier is built and the effectiveness of the control method proposed in this paper is verified by simulation.展开更多

Compared with other patients, the incidence and multidrug resistance of MDRAb are higher in children in pediatric intensive care unit （PICU） because of immune deficiency, severe basic diseases, prolonged hospitalization and invasive operations. Hence it is significant to study the epidemiology and changes of antibacterial susceptibility in order to reduce the incidence of MDRAb in children. A total 115 patients with MDRAb pneumonia and 45 patients with negative MDRAb （NMDRAb） pneumonia who had been treated from January 2009 to August 2011 were studied retrospectively at the PICU of Wuhan Children＇s Hospital. Clinical data were analyzed with univariate and multivariate Logistic regression. In 176 clinical strains of Acinetobacter baumannfi isolated, there were 128 strains of MDRAb, accounting for 72.73%. Drug susceptibility tests showed that the resistance rates of 13-1actam antibiotics were more than 70% except for cefoperazone sulbactam. The rates to carbapenems were higher than 90%. They were significantly higher than those of NMDRAb. Amikacin, levofloxacin, ciprofloxacin and minocycline had the lowest drug-resistance rates （〈20%）. Multivariate Logistic regression revealed that ICU stay, the time of mechanical ventilation, anemia, hypoproteinemia and the use of carbapenems were independent risk factors for MDRAb pneumonia. MDRAb is an important opportunistic pathogen to pneumonia in PICU, and its drug-resistance is severe. It increases significantly the mortality of patients. It is important to take the effective prevention measures for controlling it.展开更多

From January 2014 to December 2017, collected data included those on socio-demographic, history of diseases and physical examination, and some labor dataincluding Pro BNP, serum creatinine, blood ionogram,?cardiac enzymes and blood count. Also data electrocardiography, echocardiography and in-hospital evolution were collected. Statistical Analysis:Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS (IBM Inc) version 18. Results: AHF occured in 47.36% with a mean age of 58.74 ± 18.407 and extremes of 17 and 90 years, women representing 53.1% (sex ratio Male:Female = 0.88). Hypertension and diabetes were the predominant cardiovascular risk factors with respectively 67.4% and 18.4%. At admission?44%, 37.7% and 17.9% of patients were respectively hypertensive,?normotensive and hypotensive. The clinical expression was mainly global heart failure with 42.6% followed by left heart failure and right heart failure with respectively 37% and 20.4%. The coronary syndromes (all forms) was the first cause of ICA with 34% of cases followed by pulmonary embolism and hypertension with respectively 25.3% and 24.1%. Mean hospital stay was 5.61 ± 3.527 days (1 to 25 days). Complications were recorded in 18.5% of patients with cardiogenic shock in half of all cases. In multi-variate analysis, only hypotension at admission was shown to be the independent factor of poor prognosis with p = 0.016 and OR = 4.453 (1.322 - 14.996). Conclusion: As a common manifestation heart failure can be rapidly fatal in presence of collapsus or hypotension at admission. These factors should be accurately managed to reduce mortality, which remains high in our context.展开更多

This is how we felt it necessary to conduct a study on cardiovascular diseases in emergency units of Senegal, more precisely in Dakar, in order to know epidemiological profile of these patients. <strong>Methods:</strong> The study setting was the reception and emergency units of the Hôpital de Pikine and Hôpital Principal de Dakar. This was an observational, descriptive cross-sectional study with an analytical aim to search for factors associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular disease. The study ran from January 25th to February 5th, 2018 at the Hôpital de Pikine and from February 25th to March 5th, 2018 at Hôpital Principal de Dakar. The source population consisted of patients over 18 years of age and not in a state of pregnancy, who were been received there and had given their free and informed consent to participate in the survey. A representative sample had drawn and a consecutive recruitment of eligible patients were been carried out. The data collection tools were been based on the WHO STEPwise survey questionnaire. Data collection was been carried out in accordance with ethical rules. <strong>Results:</strong> The study involved 615 patients. The proportions of sedentary lifestyle, low daily consumption of fruits/vegetables, overweight and obesity were 72.4%, 96.4%, 22.7% and 17.3% respectively. This was 55.5% of women who had a waist circumference that corresponded to a high risk of a cardiovascular event and 10.2% for men. 38.9% of patients had blood pressure above 140/90mmhg and 32.2% said they had never controlled their blood pressure in their life. The use of a consultation in a health structure to control his blood pressure was by far the most frequent modality with 61.4%. The proportion of people with cardiovascular disease was 50.1%. Hypertensive flare-ups/hypertensive emergencies were the leading complications diagnosed with 33.33%. Factors associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular disease were sex, age, professional status and body mass index. <strong>Discussion & Conclusion:</strong> The risk factors for cardiovascular disease are highly represented in our emergency units. In addition to the available care offer, the identification of factors associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases in patients who are been seen there will allow targeted preventive actions within this fragile and vulnerable population. All this to help achieve target 3.4 of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. Furthermore, according to the associated factors identified, it appears that achieving SDG 8 will greatly contribute to the prevention of cardiovascular disease. This proves the urgency and interest of an integrated multi-ministerial vision in our strategic plans for the prevention against major non-communicable diseases and cardiovascular diseases in particular.展开更多
