Prognostic and diagnostic accuracy of intracoronary electrocardiogram recorded during percutaneous coronary intervention: a meta-analysis by Jun Fan, Weijie Li, Yizhi Pan, Jialin He, Jiankai Huang, Pingan Chen

“…The weighted mean difference were 6.49 (95% CIs 3.84 to 9.14) for ejection fraction when ST-segment resolution was recorded, and 0.86 (95% CIs −8.55 to 10.26) when ST-segment elevation was recorded. The pooled sensitivity and specificity of ST-segment elevation were 0.78 (95% credibility intervals 0.64 to 0.89) and 0.87 (95% credibility intervals 0.75 to 0.94), respectively.Conclusions These findings provide quantitative data supporting that IC-ECG had promising diagnostic ability for local myocardial injury, and could predict clinical outcomes.…”

Distribution Characteristics and Coupling Relationship Between Soil Erosion and Hydrologic and Sediment Connectivity in Changchong River Basin by LI Jianing, ZHANG Hongli, TIAN Changyuan, ZHANG Yi, ZHA Tonggang

“…Among the hydrological and sediment connectivity grades, the proportion of 5° ~ 10° and 10° ~ 15° slope, 90.30 ~ 131.96 and 131.96 ~ 175.34 m elevation area is higher. The higher the grade, the higher the proportion of sunny slope area is. (4) Soil erosion has a significant positive correlation with hydrologic and sediment connectivity, mainly reflected in slope, slope direction, land use and elevation. …”
