Our trial aimed to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of abnormal glucose metabolism in patients with malignant tumors to provide a basis for further intervention. A total of 1045 patients who had been diagnosed with malignant tumors and hospitalized were surveyed. The total prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) was 39.1% (409/1045); that is, 16.4% ...

Staphylococcus aureus is a major cause of bloodstream infections and endocarditis. S. aureus bacteraemia (SAB) is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, and endocarditis is a severe complication. Population-based studies on S. aureus bacteraemia have been sparse, and few large studies exist on S. aureus endocarditis (SAE). The objective of this thesis was to study the epidemiology...

HIV-1 group M strains are characterized into 9 pure subtypes and 48 circulating recombinant forms (CRFs). Recent studies have identified the presence of new HIV-1 recombinants in Hong Kong and their complexity continues to increase. This study aims to characterize the HIV-1 genetic diversity in Hong Kong. Phylogenetic analyses were performed by using HIV-1 pol sequences including protease and p...

Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of all patients with severe sepsis or septic shock included in the French prospective multicenter (n = 12 ICUs) OUTCOMEREA database between 1997 and 2014. We excluded patients with acute brain injury as a cause of ICU admission. SAE was defined by a Glasgow coma scale < 15 at ICU admission. Independent factors associated with SAE were identified usi...

Feature Extraction Features are extracted using a two-layer stacked auto-encoder (SAE) with 1440 input neurons, 500 first hidden layer neurons and 100 2nd layer hidden neurons. Each CQT input patch consists 8 frames with 180 frequency bins or one measure of the song and each chroma feature input consists of 144 frequency bins and 10 frames with 50% overlap. The SAE is then trained on a set of c...
