考虑声散射的街道交通噪声预报模型

提出一种预报典型的两侧密集分布建筑物的城市街道交通噪声ＬＡ１０和ＬＡｅｑ声级的计算机仿真模型。模型依据一种修正的虚声源原理。它不仅考虑发生于建筑方面的镜象反射和表面吸收，而且考虑了由于墙面的粗糙性所引起的发生于有限尺寸建筑表面声散射的影响。与实测比较表明本模型可得出良好的预报结果。通过对散射强度加以变化可估计表面声散射对预报声级的影响。结果表明，即使在一个相当混响的场合，镜象反射声能对扩散反射声能     

Early amniocentesis at 11–14 weeks' gestation for the diagnosis of fetal chromosomal abnormality—a clinical evaluation

Early arnniocentesis between 11 and 14 weeks' gestation was offered to 110 women at risk of a chromosomally abnormal fetus due to maternal age. Four were found to be unsuitable for the procedure, and 106 early amniocenteses were performed. In 102 cases, clear amniotic fluid was obtained with a single tap. There were two dry taps and two bloodstained tapis; sampling was repeated in three of these cases before 15 weeks. In the fourth case, placental biopsy was performed at 16 weeks. Thus, we were able to obtain a satisfactory sample in all but three cases(2.8 percent). Karyotyping of cells harvested from the early amniotic fluid samples was successful in all the 105 cases. Cell culture from the initial samples revealed a normal karyotype in 99 cases, two balanced translocations, two tetraploid karyotypes, and two cases of pseudomosaicism. Of the 105 pregnancies successfully sampled, there have been two losses to date (1–8 per cent). Two further patients presented with premature rupture of membranes, both pregnancies having successful outcomes. Sixty-two babies have delivered to date, with four congenital anomalies. There were no respiratory problems. Twenty-nine pregnancies are continuing without known complications, and details are not yet available on the remaining 12. The results indicate that early arnniocentesis may replace the traditional test at 15–17 weeks.
