Measurements of intestinal wall thicknesses from ultrasound imaging (US) are routinely used to support diagnoses of intestinal disorders in cats, however published studies describing observer agreement are currently lacking. The aim of this retrospective, observer agreement study was to quantify inter- and intraobserver repeatability and agreement in the measurement of intestinal wall layer thicknesses and the segmentation of transverse sections of small intestines in US images of 20 cats. Intestinal wall layer thickness measurements of the mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, serosa layer, and total thickness of these layers were performed on five cats with small cell epitheliotropic lymphoma, five with inflammatory bowel disease, and 10 with other conditions. Thickness measurements and the segmentation encompassing the serosa layer were obtained from five observers four times non-sequentially. The average standard deviation in thickness measurements (95% confidence interval) in the mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, serosa, and total thickness were 0.35 (0.07–0.95), 0.24 (0.07-0.52), 0.22 (0.06-0.49), 0.20 (0.05-0.49), and 0.57 (0.11-1.60) mm, respectively. The average intraclass correlation coefficients, which estimates the degree of consistency in thickness measurements and segmentation areas for each observer, ranged from 0.355 to 0.870 and 0.850 to 0.993, respectively. The interclass correlation coefficient, which estimates the degree of consistency when measuring a thickness or segmentation area over all observers ranged from 0.115 to 0.753, and 0.811 to 0.902, respectively. The overall average Dice Coefficient, which estimates the extent of overlap of the segmentations for all observers was 0.957 (0.933 to 0.972). Our results suggest segmentations of small intestines have a higher interobserver agreement than measurements of intestinal wall thicknesses.  相似文献   

Performance Analysis of MIPv4 Regional Registration Combined with Low Latency Handoffs     

LIU Hui  LIU Xing-qian  LIU Xiang 《保鲜与加工》2006,(3):76-79

The mechanism of MIPv4 regional registration and the low latency handoff protocols are introduced. Ways and procedure of pre-registration handoff and post-registration handoff are discussed also. The authors analyze the performance of the low latency handoff protocols combined with low latency handoffs over a wireless access based on IEEE 802. 11 standard in a tree-like network topology. The performance of pre-registration and post-registration scheme is given by simulation.  相似文献

Realizing 3 Layers Transport Model in the Communication Between Embedded System and PC     

CHEN Hua-hong  PANG Tao  ZHOU Sha 《保鲜与加工》2005,(3):65-68

This article puts forward a 3 Layers Model for the communication between embedded system and PC. It is based on the speciality of them and the TCP/IP model. The model defines the communicate process of embedded system to be three layers: Transport Layer, Control Layer and Application Layer. Each layer serves for its higher-up. It can keep the efficiency and credibility of the communicate process and the authors prove and analyse that in the article. the concept of the model is also suitable for Bluetooth, IrDA and other kinds of communication about embedded system.  相似文献   

A STUDY ON HEAT AND MOISTURE STATE OF HULL LAYER FOR THERMAL INSTULATION OF A COLD STORAGE     

Chen Qigao Feng Ya 《保鲜与加工》1993,(1)

This paper analyses the thermal moist characteristics of the hull layer beside an air layer at lower temperature in an envelope for a cold storage and presents a new method of waterproof by air layer. With test data from engineering practice, the theory on the barrier of self moisture proof at the surface sublayer of the hull layer in an attic on a cold storage is proven. The dried zone about three phase point is confirmed. It is a new knowledge for thermophysics on thermal design of a cold storage with an optimum thermal performance.  相似文献   

基于SHAW模型的冬小麦近地面层气温模拟

利用一维多层水热耦合SHAW（The simultaneous heat and water）模型,在田间实验的基础上,模拟河南省商丘地区2015年冬小麦拔节后近地面层0~40 cm垂直方向上的每小时气温变化特征。结果表明,冬小麦近地面层气温模拟整体效果较好,其中48%模拟的绝对误差低于1℃,75%模拟的绝对误差低于2℃,不同高度上模型效率ME均大于0.94;夜晚气温的模拟效果优于白天的模拟效果,白天11:00—14:00气温被过低估计,并随着近地面层高度的增加,模拟值误差越大;近地面层内3种气温特征值模拟效果的优劣依次为：日平均气温、日最低气温、日最高气温,其中,日平均气温模拟值与实测值基本吻合,日最低气温被略微高估,日最高气温被过低估计。此外,SHAW模型在冬小麦拔节后6个生育期的模拟效果均存在差异,拔节期、灌浆期和乳熟期模拟效果较好,孕穗期和开花期次之,抽穗期模拟效果相对较差。  相似文献
