The performance of the human-machine dialogue in a vehicle environment is greatly deteriorated by background noise. In this paper, the authors present an in-car speech enhancement method (ICSE), which can be employed to effectively improve quality of the in-car speech signals. This speech enhancement method was developed by means of the Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD). Based on EEMD method, noise-contaminated speech signals can be decomposed into a set of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Next, nonlinear least squares estimation and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) testing are employed to obtain optimal weighting coefficients of the dominant IMFs. Finally, by combining the weighted IMFs, the noise effect can be suppressed sufficiently and the in-car speech signals enhanced significantly. Experimental and simulative results show that the obtained weighting coefficients of IMFs are reasonable and the EEMD technology is effective for extracting clean speech from the noise-contaminated in-car speech.

Objective:To investigate the influence of the interspinous spacer implant on the kinematics of the lumbar spine.Method:Six cadaver spine functional units(L1-L5) were observed.The muscles were removed while the discs,ligaments and joint capsules were intact.The cranial portion of L1 and caudal portion of L5 vertebrae were secured in polymethylmethacrylate(PMMA).Specimens were initially tested by applying a 400N axial compression,followed by a ±7.5Nm bending moment in six directions(lexion and extension,left and right axial rotation,and left and right lateral bending) with a speed of 0.5°/s.The range of motion(ROM) at L2/3 and L3/4 of the intact group was measured,while the ROM at the L3/4 was measured after the Bullet interspinous device was placed.After the measurement,force was imposed with a frequency of 2Hz.Flexsion and extension were done 20000 time,lateral flexion was done 15000 times,and rotation was done 5000 times.X-ray was taken to see the positions of the implants,whether there was fracture of the spinous processes,whether the implants were deformed or broken.Result:The ROM in flexion-extension of L3/4 at intact state was 4.62°±2.26° and 4.07°±1.92° respectively.The ROM in flexion-extension at the instrumented level was 3.87°±2.06° and 2.57°±2.06°,the ROM of both groups in flexion-extension were significantly different(P<0.05),whereas there was no significant effect on the other directions.The novel device had the ability to resist fatigue.Conclusion:Similar to other interspinous implants,the novel percutaneously placed low profile inter-spinous device has an effect on the control of flexibility of the treated segments.It can provide spine stabilization while in extension,but has little effect on the range of motion in flexion,lateral bending and axial rotation.

Study Design. An in vitro laboratory study.Objective. (i) To evaluate the effect of osteoporotic degree in determining the strength of sacral screw fixation and (ii) to compare the strength of unaugmented bicortical pedicle screw and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) augmented unicortical pedicle screw in sacral fixation.Summary of Background Data. Screw loosening is a clinical problem in lumbosacral fusions, especially in osteoporotic patients. To improve the screw anchoring strength of sacrum, bicortical and PMMA augmented sacral pedicle screw fixation techniques are widely used in clinical practice. However, the biomechanical strength of the bicortical and PMMA augmented sacral screw fixations remains undetermined in different degrees of osteoporosis.Methods. Twenty-five fresh osteoporotic cadavers were used in this study. According to the value of lumbar bone mineral density (BMD) assessed by DEXA, specimens were divided into 3 groups: group A (N = 9): BMD - 0.7 to 0.8 g/ cm2, group B (N = 8): BMD = 0.6 to 0.7 g/cm2, and group C (N = 8): BMD = 0.6 g/cm(2). In each specimen, S1 pedicle screw was inserted bicortically on the left side, and S1 pedicle screw with PMMA augmentation was inserted unicortically on the right side of the sacrum. Following a dynamic cyclic loading from 30 to 250 N on the screw head for 2000 cycles, the subsidence displacement and axial pull-out strength of each screw were measured.Results. No anchoring failure (defined as the subsidence displacement exceeding 2 mm within 2000 loading cycles) occurred in group A and B. However, in group C, 6 cases (75%) in bicortical fixation and 5 cases (63%) in PMMA augmented fixation failed during cyclic loading. In group A, no significant difference between the bicortical and PMMA augmented fixations was detected in terms of the subsidence and maximal pull-out strength. In group B, significantly less subsidence and higher maximal pullout strength were demonstrated in the PMMA augmented technique than that in the bicortical fixation. Both techniques exhibited lower subsidence of the screw in group A than in group B. The bicortical technique exhibited higher maximum pull-out strength in group A than that in group B. However, statistical difference in terms of PMMA augmentation was not detected between group A and B.Conclusion. For BMD value more than 0.70 g/cm(2), bicortical sacral pedicle screw fixation could obtain sufficient anchoring strength comparable with the PMMA augmented technique. When BMD value is within 0.6 to 0.7 g/cm(2), the PMMA augmented technique would be more beneficial in improving the fixation strength than the bicortical fixation. For BMD values less than 0.6 g/cm(2), early screw loosening may occur in both bicortical and PMMA augmented fixations.
Study Design: An in vitro biomechanical cadaver study.Objectives: To compare the subsidence displacement after cyclic loading among 4 sacral pedicle screw fixations of bicortical, tricortical, standard polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) augmentation, and sub-endplate PMMA augmentation in osteoporotic condition.Summary of Background Data: Implant failure caused by screw loosening is a clinical problem for lumbosacral fusions, especially in osteoporotic patients. To improve sacral screw anchoring strength, the main fixation techniques need to be evaluated biomechanically.Methods: For this study, 11 fresh osteoporotic cadaver sacra were harvested and bone mineral density was measured with dual-energy radiograph absorptiometry. A 7 mm diameter monoaxial pedicle screw (S1) was randomly assigned by side (left vs. right) and placed bicortically or tricortically. The 2 screws, followed 2000 cyclic compression loading of 30 to 250 N, were removed. The screw tracts were filled up with PMMA, then, screws 5 mm shorter than the bicortical or tricortical fixation were reinserted (defined as standard and sub-endplate PMMA augmented sacral screw fixations, respectively). The PMMA augmented screws were then retested as before. Screw subsidence displacement after 2000 cyclic loading was measured and compared.Results: The average bone mineral density of 11 specimens was 0.71 g/cm(2), ranged from 0.65 to 0.78 g/cm(2). No significant difference of subsidence displacement was detected between tricortical and standard PMMA augmented screws (P > 0.05), however, the 2 fixations exhibited markedly less subsidence than bicortical screw (P < 0.05). Sub-endplate PMMA augmented screw showed the least subsidence among all the screws (P < 0.05).Conclusions: PMMA augmentation can increase the bonding strength of sacral screw-bone interface and the sub-endplate PMMA augmented sacral screw could obtain the highest stability among the 4 fixation techniques in osteoporotic condition.
Study Design: Comparison of the biomechanical fixation strengths offered by 3 iliac screw fixation techniques: short screw, short screw augmented with cement, and long screw.Objective: Evaluate the effect of screw length and bone cement augmentation on the fixation strength of iliac screw upon fatigue loading.Summary of Background Data: Iliac screws have been used in treating spinal disorders such as spinal deformity, spondylolisthesis, and sacral tumor. In clinical practices, both short screws and long screws are being used. It has been reported that short iliac screws have a higher rate of loosening. Therefore, short iliac screws are being used with bone cement augmentation to improve fixation. To date, no biomechanical study has compared the strengths of these 3 different iliac screw fixation techniques.Method: Fresh, frozen human cadaveric pelvis specimens (n = 18, 12 males, 6 females, average age 61 y) were used. Bone density was measured to characterize bone quality. The specimens were randomly divided into 2 groups. In group 1 (n = 8), short screws of 7.0-mm diameter and 70 +/- 4 mm length (as the length of exceeding over ischial notch) and long screw of 7.0-mm diameter and 120 +/- 4 mm length were placed on either side of the pelvis (left and right). In group 2 (n = 10), short iliac screws were placed after augmentation with polymethyl methacrylate bone cement on 1 side of the pelvis and long iliac screw were placed on the other side (left and right). Cyclic loading ranging from 20 to 200 N was applied to each screw at a frequency of 2 Hz up to 5000 cycles. Pullout tests were then conducted at the rate of 5 mm/min after the fatigue test, and the maximum pullout strength for each screw was recorded and analyzed.Results: The maximum pullout strength of the long screw and short screw groups after fatigue conditioning were 2386 +/- 1470 and 833 +/- 681 N respectively. Significant difference was found between the 2 groups (P < 0.05). The short iliac screw had a higher loosening rate. The pullout force of the short screw fixation with augmentation and the long screw fixation after cyclic loading were 2436 +/- 915 and 2529 +/- 1055 N, respectively. No significant difference was found between the 2 groups (P > 0.05).Conclusions: Short iliac screws are susceptible to loosening after cyclic loading. Bone cement augmentation of short screws has demonstrated a significant increase in the fixation strength of short screws to an extent similar to that of long iliac screws. Thus, short iliac screw fixation after augmentation with bone cement will be a viable clinical option for spino-pelvic reconstruction.
Objective To compare the strength of long iliac screw and short iliac screw augmenting with PMMA fixations after a fatigue simulation and evaluate the biomechanical effect of the short iliac screw. Methods Eleven adult corpse embalmed pelves (7 males, 4 females, with the average age of 60.7 years, ranged from 41 to 78 years) were used. Using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), bone density was measured to characterize bone quality, the mean value of BMD was 0.68±0.17 g/cm2, long screw was difined as the length of 2 mm around anterior inferior iliac spine, and short screw was difined as the length of exceeding no more than 5ram over ischial notch. Long screw [7.0 mm diameter and (138±4) mm length] was randomly inserted in one side of each pelve, and short screw [7.0 mm diameter and (70±2) mm length] following augmentation with PMMA was inserted in the other side. The PMMA was inserted 2-5 ml (mean 3.6 ml). Cyclic loading from 30 N to 300 N was applied to each screw at a frequency of 2 Hz up to 2000 cy-cles. Pullout tests were conducted at 5 mm/min after completion of the fatigue tests, and the maximum pull-out strength was recorded. Results Initial stiffness of the long screw fixation and the short screw fixation with augmentation were (249±101) N/mm and (253±122) N/mm respectively. Pullout force of the short screw fixation with augmentation and the long screw fixation were (2436±915) N and (2529±1055) N respectively, no significant difference was found between the two groups. The pullout forces of two fixations following cyclic loading showed linear correlations with the bone mineral density of pelvis. Conclusion The short ili-ae screw fixation following augmentation with PMMA will be a viable clinical option for spino-pelvic recon-struction, especially in osteoporotic patients.
STUDY DESIGN:Comparison of feasibility and safety of the placement of short and long iliac screws by anatomic and biomechanical evaluations as they apply to lumbo-iliac fixation construct.OBJECTIVE:To compare the stability of the short and long iliac screw fixations for lumbo-iliac reconstruction by anatomic and biomechanical evaluations.SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA:Spinopelvic reconstruction remains a challenge to spine surgeons. Despite the advent of many fixation methods, the use of iliac screws seems most favorable so far. Various lengths of iliac screws are applied in surgical treatments; however, no biomechanical comparison has been reported based on the screw length.METHODS:For anatomic observation, CT scan data of 60 Chinese adults were used to measure the details of the iliac spine structures. For biomechanical evaluation, 7 adult human cadavers (L3-pelvis) were observed. L4-S1 pedicle screw fixation was performed with posterior spinal fixation system. On the basis of the lengths of iliac screws, 2 groups were tested (short screw group using 70 mm screws and long screw group using 138 mm screws). In this study, short and long iliac screws were placed in the same specimen. Biomechanical testing was performed on a material testing machine under 800 N compression and 7 Nm torsion loading modes for stiffness evaluations. Finally, pullout testing was performed for all the iliac screws to measure the maximum pullout force.RESULTS:The length of the line between posterior superior iliac spine and anterior inferior iliac spine was 140.6 +/- 1.1 mm, and the distance between this line and the greater sciatic notch was 18.3 +/- 0.8 mm. The length of the line between posterior superior iliac spine and the second narrowest point was 67.1 +/- 0.62 mm in men and 70.1 +/- 1.4 mm in women. Insertion lengths of the short and long iliac screws were 70 +/- 2 mm and 138 +/- 4 mm, respectively. The lumbo-pelvic reconstruction using short and long iliac screws restored 53.3% +/- 13.6% and 57.6% +/- 16.2% of the initial stiffness in compression testing respectively. In torsion testing, the use of short and long iliac screws harvested 55.1% +/- 11.9% and 62.5% +/- 9.2% of the initial stiffness, respectively. No significant difference was detected between the 2 reconstructions in terms of compressive and torsional stiffness (P > 0.05). However, the maximum pullout strength of long iliac screw group was significantly higher than the short screw group (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION:The local stability is rather difficult to be restored to the original levels regardless the length of iliac screws. Obviously, long iliac screws resisted significantly greater axial pullout force. However, under physiologic, torsional, and compressive loading conditions, the mechanical stability of lumbo-pelvic fixation construct with short iliac screws was comparable with that of the long ones. Therefore, the use of short iliac screws, which are only about half the length of the long iliac screws, could reduce the implantation risk without significantly compromising on the stability of the construct.
Objective To compare the subsidence displacement following cyclic loading among 4 sacral pedicle screw fixations of bicortical,tricortical,standard polymethylmethacrylate(PMMA) augmentation and sub-endplate PMMA augmentation in osteoporotic condition.Methods For this study,11 fresh osteoporotic cadaver sacra were harvested,and bone mineral density was measured with dual energy X-ray absorptiometry.A 7 mm diameter monoaxial bicortical or tricortical pedicle screw(S1) was randomly assigned by side(left vs.right) and placed.The 2 screws which followed 2000 cyclic compression with 30-250 N pressure were removed.The screw tracts were filled up with PMMA,then,screws 5 mm shorter than the bicortical or tricortical fixation were reinserted(defined as standard and sub-endplate PMMA augmented sacral screw fixations,respectively).The PMMA augmented screws were then retested as before.Screw subsidence displacement following 2000 cyclic loading was measured and compared.Results The average bone mineral density of 11 specimens was 0.71 g/cm2,ranged from 0.65 to 0.78 g/cm2.No significant difference of subsidence displacement was detected between tricortical and standard PMMA augmented screws,however,the 2 fixations exhibited markedly less subsidence than bicortical screw.Sub-endplate PMMA augmented screw showed the least subsidence among all the screws.Conclusion PMMA augmentation can increase the bonding strength of sacral screw-bone interface,and the sub-endplate PMMA augmented sacral screw could obtain the most stability among the 4 fixation techniques in osteoporotic condition.
Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of percutaneous balloon kyphoplasty in the treatment of vertebral compression fractures resulted from multiple myeloma.Method:From June 2005 to December 2006,a total of 29 vertebral compression fractures due to multiple myeloma were treated by balloon kyphoplasty in 12 patients.The average age of the patients was 58.2 years old with a range of 44 to 71 years. Symptomatic levels were identified by physical examination,magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) and radiograph. Outcome data were obtained by comparing visual analogue scale(VAS) and Oswestry disability index(ODI) score.Pre- and post-operative radiographs were analyzed to assess the restoration of vertebral height,Cobb angle and complications.Result:Operation was successfully performed on all patients with a mean operative time of 33min per vertebra.The average blood loss was 30ml per vertebra and the bone cement volume injected was 4.78ml per vertebra.The mean time of follow-up was 9.2 months(range,2.5-23 months).There were 7 cases died during the follow-up period.VAS decreased significantly from 8.9±1.2 points to 2.6±0.2 points one day post-treatment,3.6±0.1 points at the last follow-up(P0.05).ODI score was reduced from 74.5±6.2 to 27.4±3.6 points,and 31.2±4.2 points at the last follow-up(P0.05).The anterior and midline vertebral body heights were increased significantly(P0.05).The mean Cobb angle was improved 8.32°.Clinically asymptomatic cement leakage occurred at 4 fracture levels(13.8%).Conclusion:Percutaneous balloon kyphoplasty is proved to be safe and effective in the treatment of vertebral compression fractures and deformity resulted from multiple myeloma.
The performance of the human-machine dialogue at in-car environment is considerably deteriorated by background noises and other disturbances. In this paper, the authors present an in-car speech enhancement (ICSE) method to improve quality of speech signals suffering the in-car noises. The method is based on a novel signal processing technology called the ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD). By using EEMD, the noisy speech signals are decomposed as a set of intrinsic mode functions (IMF). Then, the nonlinear least-square estimation and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are employed to find out the optimal weighting coefficients of those IMFs dominating the speech signals. Finally, the enhanced speech signals, where in-car noises are suppressed, are obtained by the reconstruction technique based on the weighting IMFs. Results of the work show that, EEMD is an effective technology of separating pure speech from in-car noises, and the weighting coefficients proposed in this study are also effective for noises reduction as considering the similarity of the signal waveform.
