Wounds are mostly found in oral cavities;therefore, reusable flashlights may be a potential source of nosocomial infections (NIs). However, the microbial flora present in flashlights used in hospitals has not yet been explored. Methods: This study investigated the microbial contamination of 41 flashlights used in a stomatology hospital in Guangzhou in March 2016. Results: Results indicated that 75.6%(31/41) of the flashlights had microbial contamination. Gram-positive bacteria accounted for 72.7%(24/33)of the microbial groups contaminating the flashlights, and Gram-negative bacteria (21.2%, 7/33), and fungi (6.1%, 2/33) constituted the remaining contaminants. The predominantly isolated species was Staphyloccus (66.7%, 22/33), especially Staphylococcus aureus (24.2%, 8/33). Approximately 77.3%(17/22) of the types of bacteria detected in the hands were same as those in the corresponding flashlights. Both the bacterial overstandard and S. aureus detection rates of doctors' flashlights were higher than those of nurses' flashlights (16/17 vs. 14/23, 7/17 vs. 1/23, respectively) (P < 0.05). Moreover, both disinfectants performed excellently, and their eligibility rates were not significantly different (17/17 vs. 14/14) (P>0.05). Conclusion: Flashlights are potential causes of NIs. Disinfecting flashlights could be an effective and practical infection control method.展开更多

The mechanical structure innovation lies mainly in the dual-motor drive tracked unit used, which showed high dynamic performance compared with the conventional tracked unit. The control algorithm, developed based on decision trees and neural networking, facilitates autonomous switching between "Velocity-driven Mode" and "Torquedriven Mode". To verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the control strategy, we built a self-designed test platform and used it to debug the control program; we then made a robot prototype and conducted further experiments on single-step, ramp, and rubble terrains. The results show that the proposed walking system has excellent dynamic performance and the control strategy is very efficient, suggesting that a robot with this type of explosion-proof walking system can be successfully applied in Chinese coal mines.展开更多

Methods Totally 425 subjects were given an eye examination in a community health center. The anterior chamber depth of each subject was examined by one ophthalmologist and two trained community health workers (one nurse and one non-professional health worker) using oblique flashlight test. Inter-observer agreement was determined using the weighted kappa statistic. Results Among the enrolled subjects,148 (35%) were male and 277 (65%) were female. Good agreement was noted in all the three observers. The comparison between the ophthalmologist and the nurse showed a kappa statistic of 0.42 for both eyes (P<0.001). The kappa statistic was 0.54 and 0.52 for right and left eyes respectively between the ophthalmologist and the non-professional health worker (P<0.001). As for agreement between the nurse and the non-professional health worker,the kappa statistic was 0.49 and 0.38 for right and left eyes,respectively (P<0.001). Conclusion The oblique flashlight test may be used as an applicable tool by trained community health workers for screening of shallow anterior chamber and play a role in blindness prevention in community.展开更多

This study investigated the feasibility and benefits of explosion-proof dual throttling cooling and dehumidification air-conditioning system applied to the explosion-proof frequency converter. The physical model of dual throttling air-conditioning system was established and its performance parameter was described by mathematical method. The design calculation of the system has also been done. The experimental result showed that the system reached the steady state at the refrigeration mode after running 45 min, and the maximum internal temperature of the flame-proof cavity was 31.0 ℃. The system reached the steady state at the dehumidification mode after running 37 min. The maximum internal relative humidity and temperature of the flame-proof cavity were 33.4% and 36.3 ℃, respectively. Therefore, the proposed system had excellent ability of heat dissipation and avoided internal dewing. Compared with water cooling system, it was more energy-saving and economical. The airflow field of dual throttling air-conditioning system was also studied by CFD simulation. It was found that the result of CFD numerical simulation was highly consistent with the experimental data.展开更多
