Detailed Description
In the field of blood cell detection, sheath flow techniques have emerged to avoid the flow of blood cells from the edges of the small pores during counting and to avoid the effects of turbulence and turbulence. The sheath flow technology is realized by aligning a capillary tube with a small-hole tube, ejecting the cell suspension from the capillary tube, and simultaneously flowing the cell suspension and sheath liquid flowing out from the periphery of the capillary tube through a sensitive area together to ensure that the cell suspension forms a single-arranged cell flow in the middle and the periphery of the cell flow is surrounded by the sheath liquid. The particle size and the number of the cells can be counted according to the change of the resistance when the cells flow through the small holes by utilizing the sheath flow impedance principle.
The blood cell pulse identification method disclosed by the invention is used for identifying pulse signals formed based on the sheath flow impedance principle, and recording the relative height, pulse width and the like of the pulse signals so as to obtain and count various blood cell parameters such as the number of cells, the particle size and the like.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a pulse signal obtained according to the principle of sheath flow impedance when a single blood cell passes through a pore, the pulse signal is a normal pulse signal, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a pulse signal obtained according to the principle of sheath flow impedance when a blood cell passes through a pore, but the pulse signal is actually two blood cells overlapping and passing through a pore, so that the pulse signal is abnormal, and a so-called "M wave" is formed.
The invention discloses a blood cell pulse recognition method, which comprises the following steps:
1) determining a gradient edge of the pulse signal from the starting point along the identification direction of the pulse signal;
2) finding out a trough and a peak connected with the slope edge, recording an abscissa a corresponding to the trough and an abscissa b corresponding to the peak, and recording a first signal characteristic of the pulse signal, wherein the first signal characteristic at least comprises a relative height Δ h of the pulse signal, and Δ h ═ f (b) - (f) (a);
3) finding out an abscissa c corresponding to a pulse terminal after the peak is crossed, wherein the height of the pulse terminal is f (c), and delta h/10 is more than or equal to f (c) and less than or equal to delta h/5;
4) acquiring the number N of intermediate troughs between the peak and the pulse end point, and recording a second signal characteristic of the pulse signal if N is 0; if N is more than or equal to 1, entering the step 5);
5) recording the intermediate trough with the nearest wave crest as the starting point of the next pulse signal, acquiring the abscissa d of the starting point, recording the third signal characteristic of the pulse signal, and returning to the step 1).
As is well known, the rising edge and the falling edge of the pulse signal are respectively located on two sides of the peak of the pulse signal, and in this case, the rising edge and the falling edge on two sides of the pulse signal are collectively referred to as the slope edge.
The first signal characteristic in the above embodiment may include, but is not limited to, the actual height h of the pulse signal, and the area of the pulse signal, in addition to the relative height of the pulse, where h ═ f (b); the second signal characteristic may be a pulse width Δ w | -c-a |, and the third signal characteristic may be a pulse width Δ w | -d-a |, but the second signal characteristic and the third signal characteristic may also be other pulse information that needs to be calculated and recorded, and the pulse information may be adapted according to the experimentally expected purpose.
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to two specific embodiments, in which the slope edge is a rising edge and the slope edge is a falling edge.
Example 1
The present embodiment is described with respect to a case where a slope edge is a rising edge and an identification direction of a pulse signal is a positive direction of a horizontal axis, and is understood with reference to fig. 1 to 3.
Referring to fig. 3, after acquiring a pulse signal, the blood cell pulse recognition method sequentially performs the following steps:
s1) finding the rising edge of the pulse signal along the positive direction of the horizontal axis from the starting point;
s2), finding out the wave trough and the wave crest connected with the rising edge, recording the abscissa a corresponding to the wave trough, recording the abscissa b corresponding to the wave crest, and recording the relative height Δ h of the pulse signal, wherein Δ h ═ f (b) - (f) (a);
s3) finding out an abscissa c corresponding to a pulse end point after the abscissa crosses a peak along the positive direction of the abscissa, wherein the height of the pulse end point is f (c), and delta h/10 is more than or equal to f (c) and less than or equal to delta h/5;
s4) acquiring the number N of intermediate troughs between the peak and the pulse end point, wherein if N is 0, the pulse is formed by a single cell, and the pulse width Δ w is directly recorded as c-a; if N is equal to or greater than 1, it indicates that the pulse is formed by overlapping a plurality of cells through the aperture, and then the process proceeds to step S5);
s5) recording the intermediate valley closest to the peak as the starting point of the next pulse signal in the positive direction along the horizontal axis, and acquiring the horizontal axis d thereof, recording the pulse width Δ w-d-a, and returning to step S1), by which the overlapped pulse waves can be separated, and returning to step S1), the features of the separated individual pulses can be individually extracted.
If necessary, in step S2), the actual pulse height h of the pulse signal may be recorded, where h is f (b).
The function f (x) in the above step specifically refers to a functional relation corresponding to the pulse signal. The skilled in the art can understand that the sheath flow impedance technology can ensure that the cells flow directionally along the center of the small hole, so that the blood cell pulse identification method based on the sheath flow impedance principle can effectively avoid the cells from deviating from the center of the small hole, thereby reducing or even avoiding the influence of m-wave on the blood cell count and the particle size statistics; in addition, in the blood cell pulse recognition method disclosed in the above embodiment, in order to solve the phenomenon that the pulse signal is superimposed due to the "M wave", the feature extraction is performed on the individual pulses in the pulse signal, which can reflect the features of the individual cells, respectively, so as to eliminate the influence of the "M wave" on the statistics of the number of cells and the particle size, as well as on the amplitude and the width of the pulse signal. Compared with a signal correction mode in the prior art, the blood cell pulse identification method is simpler and faster, and the statistical result is more accurate and reliable.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, actually, the pulse signal is represented in a two-dimensional rectangular coordinate system, the abscissa indicates the abscissa in the two-dimensional rectangular coordinate system, and according to mathematical interpretation, the positive direction of the abscissa is a direction toward the right (increasing numerical value) and the negative direction is a direction toward the left (decreasing numerical value).
In general, the starting point in step S1) is the left end point of the acquired pulse signal, and there should be at least one complete pulse in the acquired pulse signal; of course, the starting point may be a starting point set manually.
The method for finding the rising edge of the pulse signal is not limited to one, and in fig. 3, the step labeled S1 discloses a method for finding the rising edge of the pulse signal, specifically, a characteristic point on the pulse signal can be selected along the horizontal axis from the starting point, and then the pulse signal at the characteristic point can be calculatedThe slope k of the sign is greater than or equal to the first predetermined slope k0And then, determining that the characteristic point is located in the rising edge of the pulse signal, so that the rising edge of the pulse signal is found, and easily understanding that the slope k in the rising edge is not less than 0, and once the slope k at the characteristic point is less than 0, proving that the characteristic point exceeds the rising edge.
First predetermined slope k0Is an artificial set value, k0The arrangement of (1) is mainly to eliminate the influence of noise in the pulse signal and avoid determining the disturbance caused by the noise as the rising edge of the pulse signal, and if the reasonable k is not set, the noise is actually in the area defined by the broken line of the part A in FIG. 10It is easy to determine the rising edge as the false rising edge of the pulse signal, and practical studies show that the slope value of the rising edge caused by noise is generally not more than 5, and the slope value of the rising edge of the actual pulse signal generated when the cell passes through the small hole is much more than 5, so the first predetermined slope k is set to be the first predetermined slope k0Is set to the interval [5, 15]The influence of noise on the judgment of the rising edge of the pulse signal can be effectively eliminated by the numerical value between the two.
Besides, those skilled in the art can also find the rising edge of the pulse signal from the starting point along the positive direction of the transverse axis by using an image recognition method, and since the image recognition method is widely used in scientific research and daily life, the image recognition method will not be described in detail in the embodiment of the present invention.
Step S2), finding out the wave trough and the wave crest connected to the rising edge can also be performed by using an image recognition method, in addition, the embodiment of the present invention further discloses a method for finding out the wave crest and the wave trough by slope assistance, specifically, finding out the characteristic point P with the maximum slope in the pulse signal in the rising edge of the pulse signal0From P0Initially, finding out a trough (a point with the minimum ordinate) connected with the rising edge along the negative direction of the horizontal axis; the peak (the point with the largest ordinate) connected to the rising edge is found along the positive direction of the horizontal axis.
The interval of the feature point selection can be changed according to needs, and for convenience of selection, the interval of two adjacent feature points on the horizontal axis is the sampling interval of the pulse signal.
In order to obtain the pulse end point of the pulse signal within a reasonable pulse width range, the height of the pulse end point may be set to 10% to 20% of the relative height Δ h, that is, the height Δ h/10 ≦ f (c) ≦ Δ h/5, preferably, f (c) ≦ Δ h/5.
In step S4), it can be directly determined whether the pulse signal is formed by a single cell through a pinhole or by overlapping multiple cells through a pinhole by obtaining the intermediate number N of valleys between the peak and the pulse end point, if N is 0, it is verified that no valley appears again between the peak and the valley of the current pulse signal, the pulse signal is a normal signal, the pulse width Δ w is recorded as required as c-a, and if N is greater than or equal to 1, it is verified that at least one valley appears between the peak and the valley of the current pulse signal, the pulse signal is actually an "M wave", and then the process proceeds to step S5);
in step S5), the intermediate trough closest to the peak is recorded as a starting point along the horizontal axis in the forward direction, and the horizontal axis d of the trough is obtained, and the trough is actually the end point of the previous pulse signal, at this time, the previous pulse width Δ w is recorded as d-a; then, the trough is reset to the start point of the next pulse signal, and the process returns to step S1) again until the condition that N is 0 in step S4) is satisfied. As can be seen, the multiple pulse signals overlapped together are separated one by one in step S5) to extract the features such as the relative height and pulse width of the pulse signals, so as to record the number of cells passing through the small holes and the particle size information truly and accurately.
In this embodiment, the specific manner of obtaining the number N of intermediate troughs between the peak and the pulse end point in step S4) is as follows:
41) selecting any two values i and x in the interval (b, c), wherein i is larger than x, if f (i) -f (x) is always satisfied to be less than or equal to 0, indicating that the pulse signal is in a continuous descending state in the interval (b, c), and judging that N is equal to 0 if no wave trough appears in the interval; if f (i) -f (x) is greater than 0, the pulse signal is in the interval (b, c) and jumps in the descending process, and the step 42 is carried out, so as to record the number of the middle wave troughs in the interval;
42) recording the number m of the operation of the step, recording the intermediate trough closest to the peak as the starting point of the next pulse signal, finding out the rising edge of the pulse signal along the positive direction of the transverse axis from the starting point, finding out the peak connected with the rising edge, and recording the abscissa b of the peak1Finding out the abscissa c corresponding to the pulse end point after crossing the peak along the positive direction of the abscissa1The height of the pulse end point is f (c)1) Wherein Δ h/10. ltoreq. f (c)1) Delta h/5 or less, and entering the step 43).
43) Selecting interval (b)1,c1) Any two values in between i1And x1And i is1>x1If f (i) is always satisfied1)-f(x1) And if not, assigning N to m, otherwise, returning to the step 42).
In addition, of course, a person skilled in the art can also obtain the number N of intermediate troughs between the peak and the pulse end point by means of image recognition, which is not described in the present invention again.
The method disclosed in the above embodiment is to find the rising edge of the pulse signal first, and then find the parameters such as the peak and the trough of the pulse signal according to the rising edge, and those skilled in the art can also find the falling edge of the pulse signal first, and then find the parameters such as the peak and the trough of the pulse signal through the falling edge.
Example 2
The present embodiment is described with respect to the case where the gradient edge is a falling edge and the identification direction of the pulse signal is a negative direction of the horizontal axis, and is understood with reference to fig. 1, 2 and 4.
Specifically, in the blood cell pulse recognition method disclosed in this embodiment, after acquiring a segment of pulse signal, the blood cell pulse recognition method sequentially performs the following steps:
s I) finding out the falling edge of the pulse signal from the starting point along the negative direction of the transverse shaft;
s II) finding out a trough and a peak connected with the falling edge, recording an abscissa a corresponding to the trough and an abscissa b corresponding to the peak, and recording the relative height delta h of the pulse signal, wherein the delta h is f (b) -f (a);
s III) finding out a horizontal coordinate c corresponding to a pulse end point after crossing the peak along the negative direction of the horizontal axis, wherein the height of the pulse end point is f (c), and delta h/10 is less than or equal to f (c) and less than or equal to delta h/5;
s IV) acquiring the number N of intermediate troughs between the peak and the pulse end point, and if N is 0, recording the pulse width delta w as a-c; if N is more than or equal to 1, entering step S V);
and S V) recording the intermediate trough with the nearest wave crest as the starting point of the next pulse signal along the negative direction of the horizontal axis, acquiring the horizontal axis d of the intermediate trough, recording the current pulse width delta w as a-d, and returning to the step S I).
If necessary, in step S ii), the actual pulse height h of the pulse signal may also be recorded, where h is f (b).
Similar to the first embodiment, finding the falling edge of the pulse signal can select the characteristic point on the pulse signal along the horizontal axis from the starting point, and then calculate the slope k of the pulse signal at the characteristic point, since the slopes in the falling edge are all negative values, the slope k is less than or equal to the second predetermined slope k1And then, determining that the characteristic point is located in the falling of the pulse signal, so that the falling edge of the pulse signal is found, wherein it is easy to understand that the slope k in the falling edge is not greater than 0, and once the slope k at the characteristic point is greater than 0, the characteristic point is proved to exceed the falling edge.
Second predetermined slope k1Is set to the interval [ -15, -5 [)]So as to effectively eliminate the influence of noise on the judgment of the falling edge of the pulse signal.
In this embodiment, the peak and the trough can be found in a slope-assisted manner, and specifically, the characteristic point P with the minimum slope in the pulse signal is found in the falling edge of the pulse signal0From P0Initially, finding out a trough (a point with the smallest ordinate) connected with the falling edge along the positive direction of the horizontal axis; the peak (the point with the largest ordinate) connected to the falling edge is found along the negative direction of the horizontal axis.
The determination of the number N of intermediate troughs in step S iv) may be performed with reference to the first embodiment, which is not described herein again.
