It includes a traditional white-light coronagraph and a Lyman-alpha coronagraph which opens a new window to CME observations. Polarization measurements taken by white-light coronagraphs are crucial for deriving fundamental physical parameters of CMEs. To make such measurements, there are two options for a Stokes polarimeter which have been applied by existing white-light coronagraphs for space missions. One uses a single or triple linear polarizer, the other involves both a half-wave plate and a linear polarizer. We find that the former option is subject to less uncertainty in the derived Stokes vector propagating from detector noise.The latter option involves two plates which are prone to internal reflections and may have a reduced transmission factor. Therefore, the former option is adopted as our Stokes polarimeter scheme for LST. Based on the parameters of the intended linear polarizer(s) colorPol provided by CODIXX and the half-wave plate 2-APW-L2-012 C by Altechna, it is further shown that the imperfect maximum transmittance of the polarizer significantly increases the variance amplification of Stokes vector by at least about 50% when compared with the ideal case. The relative errors of Stokes vector caused by the imperfection of colorPol polarizer and the uncertainty due to the polarizer assembly in the telescope are estimated to be about 5%. Among the considered parameters, we find that the dominant error comes from the uncertainty in the maximum transmittance of the polarizer.展开更多

文摘The Optimal Management of Antithrombotic and Thrombolytic Agents-5(OPTIMA-5)study demonstrated that a single bolus of half the standard dose of recombinant staphylokinase(r-SAK)before primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)significantly improved the patency of the infarct-related artery in patients with STsegment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI),who were expected to undergo PCI within 120 min.The present study aimed to investigate the one-year clinical outcomes and the effect of the anti-r-SAK antibodies on a second r-SAK thrombolysis in OPTIMA-5 patients.The clinical outcome measured was major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)within 360 days.Patients'anti-r-SAK antibody levels were determined on day 90(±7 days),day 180(±7 days),and day 360(±14 days)after thrombolysis,and in vitro r-SAK antibody neutralization experiments were performed to explore an optimal interval for a second r-SAK thrombolysis.Results showed that the MACE incidence was numerically lower in the r-SAK group compared with the normal saline(NS)group(14.0%vs.20.0%,hazard ratio[HR]=0.67,95%confidence interval[CI]:0.34–1.32;log-rank P=0.245).The anti-r-SAK antibody levels in the r-SAK group decreased with time,but remained significantly higher than those in the NS group on day 90(±7 days)(2.96±0.68 vs.0.22±0.53,P<0.001),day 180(±7 days)(2.19±0.74 vs.0.44±0.65,P<0.001),and day 360(±14 days)(1.73±0.97 vs.0.37±0.71,P<0.001).The in vitro anti-r-SAK antibody neutralization experiments demonstrated that the thrombolysis rate decreased exponentially as the antibody titer increased from 1.90 to 2.20(67.80%±14.19%vs.44.32%±21.54%,P<0.0001).Therefore,for STEMI patients who are expected to undergo PCI within 120 min,a single bolus of half-dose rSAK before primary PCI may reduce the one-year MACE risk.The anti-r-SAK antibody persists over one year,and a second r-SAK thrombolysis may not be indicated until at least one year after the first administration,if necessary.

文摘Focusing on the rehabilitation training of hemiplegia patients,this paper proposes a gait-planning strategy based on a central pattern generator and an adaptive time-delay control scheme that utilizes recursive terminal sliding mode for lower limb rehabilitation exoskeleton robots.The central pattern generator network plans a reference gait trajectory for the affected leg,synchronized with the movement of the healthy leg.The proposed adaptive time-delay control scheme possesses a model-independent property due to the mechanism of time-delay estimation,with adaptive control gains that enhance the resilience against system perturbations and a recursive terminal sliding mode control component to achieve a fast convergence rate.According to the Lyapunov stability criterion,it is proved that the gait trajectory-tracking error is uniformly ultimately bounded.Experiments are conducted on a lower limb exoskeleton experimental platform,and the experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed strategies.

文摘Mesenchymal stromal cell transplantation is an effective and promising approach for treating various systemic and diffuse diseases.However,the biological characteristics of transplanted mesenchymal stromal cells in humans remain unclear,including cell viability,distribution,migration,and fate.Conventional cell tracing methods cannot be used in the clinic.The use of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles as contrast agents allows for the observation of transplanted cells using magnetic resonance imaging.In 2016,the National Medical Products Administration of China approved a new superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticle,Ruicun,for use as a contrast agent in clinical trials.In the present study,an acute hemi-transection spinal cord injury model was established in beagle dogs.The injury was then treated by transplantation of Ruicun-labeled mesenchymal stromal cells.The results indicated that Ruicunlabeled mesenchymal stromal cells repaired damaged spinal cord fibers and partially restored neurological function in animals with acute spinal cord injury.T2*-weighted imaging revealed low signal areas on both sides of the injured spinal cord.The results of quantitative susceptibility mapping with ultrashort echo time sequences indicated that Ruicun-labeled mesenchymal stromal cells persisted stably within the injured spinal cord for over 4 weeks.These findings suggest that magnetic resonance imaging has the potential to effectively track the migration of Ruicun-labeled mesenchymal stromal cells and assess their ability to repair spinal cord injury.
文摘Post-kidney transplant rejection is a critical factor influencing transplant success rates and the survival of transplanted organs.With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence technologies,machine learning(ML)has emerged as a powerful data analysis tool,widely applied in the prediction,diagnosis,and mechanistic study of kidney transplant rejection.This mini-review systematically summarizes the recent applications of ML techniques in post-kidney transplant rejection,covering areas such as the construction of predictive models,identification of biomarkers,analysis of pathological images,assessment of immune cell infiltration,and formulation of personalized treatment strategies.By integrating multi-omics data and clinical information,ML has significantly enhanced the accuracy of early rejection diagnosis and the capability for prognostic evaluation,driving the development of precision medicine in the field of kidney transplantation.Furthermore,this article discusses the challenges faced in existing research and potential future directions,providing a theoretical basis and technical references for related studies.

文摘With the continuous advancement of unmanned technology in various application domains,the development and deployment of blind-spot-free panoramic video systems have gained increasing importance.Such systems are particularly critical in battlefield environments,where advanced panoramic video processing and wireless communication technologies are essential to enable remote control and autonomous operation of unmanned ground vehicles(UGVs).However,conventional video surveillance systems suffer from several limitations,including limited field of view,high processing latency,low reliability,excessive resource consumption,and significant transmission delays.These shortcomings impede the widespread adoption of UGVs in battlefield settings.To overcome these challenges,this paper proposes a novel multi-channel video capture and stitching system designed for real-time video processing.The system integrates the Speeded-Up Robust Features(SURF)algorithm and the Fast Library for Approximate Nearest Neighbors(FLANN)algorithm to execute essential operations such as feature detection,descriptor computation,image matching,homography estimation,and seamless image fusion.The fused panoramic video is then encoded and assembled to produce a seamless output devoid of stitching artifacts and shadows.Furthermore,H.264 video compression is employed to reduce the data size of the video stream without sacrificing visual quality.Using the Real-Time Streaming Protocol(RTSP),the compressed stream is transmitted efficiently,supporting real-time remote monitoring and control of UGVs in dynamic battlefield environments.Experimental results indicate that the proposed system achieves high stability,flexibility,and low latency.With a wireless link latency of 30 ms,the end-to-end video transmission latency remains around 140 ms,enabling smooth video communication.The system can tolerate packet loss rates(PLR)of up to 20%while maintaining usable video quality(with latency around 200 ms).These properties make it well-suited for mobile communication scenarios demanding high real-time video performance.

文摘The healing of critical-sized bone defects(CSD)remains a challenge in orthopedic medicine.In recent years,scaffolds with sophisticated microstructures fabricated by the emerging three-dimensional(3D)printing technology have lighted up the treatment of the CSD due to the elaborate microenvironments and support they may build.Here,we established a magnesium oxide-reinforced 3D-printed biocompos-ite scaffold to investigate the effect of magnesium-enriched 3D microenvironment on CSD repairing.The composite was prepared using a biodegradable polymer matrix,polycaprolactone(PCL),and the disper-sion phase,magnesium oxide(MgO).With the appropriate surface treatment by saline coupling agent,the MgO dispersed homogeneously in the polymer matrix,leading to enhanced mechanical performance and steady release of magnesium ion(Mg^(2+))for superior cytocompatibility,higher cell viability,advanced osteogenic differentiation,and cell mineralization capabilities in comparison with the pure PCL.The in-vivo femoral implantation and critical-sized cranial bone defect studies demonstrated the importance of the 3D magnesium microenvironment,as a scaffold that released appropriate Mg^(2+) exhibited remarkably increased bone volume,enhanced angiogenesis,and almost recovered CSD after 8-week implantation.Overall,this study suggests that the magnesium-enriched 3D scaffold is a potential candidate for the treatment of CSD in a cell-free therapeutic approach.

文摘Diffusion bonding of refractory Nb–Si-based alloy was performed with Ni/Al and Ti/Al nanolayers under the condition of 1473 K/30 MPa/60 min.The NbSS/Nb5Si3 in situ composite with the nominal composition of Nb–22 Ti–16 Si–3 Cr–3 Al–2 Hf was used as the parent material.The joint microstructures were examined by using a scanning electron microscope equipped with an X-ray energy dispersive spectrometer.Shear test was conducted for the bonded joints at room temperature.Within the joint bonded with Ni/Al multilayer,element diffusion occurred between the base metal and the nanolayer,with the reaction products of AlNb2+Ni3 Al,NiAl and AlNi2 Ti phases.The average shear strength was 182 MPa.While using Ti/Al multilayer,the interface mainly consisted of TiAl,(Ti,Nb)Al and(Ti,Nb)2 Al phases,and the corresponding joints exhibited an increased strength of 228 MPa.In this case,the fracture mainly took place in the TiAl phase and presented a typical brittle characteristic.

文摘The Advanced Space-based Solar Observatory(ASO-S) mission aims to explore the two most spectacular eruptions on the Sun: solar flares and coronal mass ejections(CMEs), and their magnetism.For the study of CMEs, the payload Lyman-alpha Solar Telescope(LST) has been proposed. It includes a traditional white-light coronagraph and a Lyman-alpha coronagraph which opens a new window to CME observations. Polarization measurements taken by white-light coronagraphs are crucial for deriving fundamental physical parameters of CMEs. To make such measurements, there are two options for a Stokes polarimeter which have been applied by existing white-light coronagraphs for space missions. One uses a single or triple linear polarizer, the other involves both a half-wave plate and a linear polarizer. We find that the former option is subject to less uncertainty in the derived Stokes vector propagating from detector noise.The latter option involves two plates which are prone to internal reflections and may have a reduced transmission factor. Therefore, the former option is adopted as our Stokes polarimeter scheme for LST. Based on the parameters of the intended linear polarizer(s) colorPol provided by CODIXX and the half-wave plate 2-APW-L2-012 C by Altechna, it is further shown that the imperfect maximum transmittance of the polarizer significantly increases the variance amplification of Stokes vector by at least about 50% when compared with the ideal case. The relative errors of Stokes vector caused by the imperfection of colorPol polarizer and the uncertainty due to the polarizer assembly in the telescope are estimated to be about 5%. Among the considered parameters, we find that the dominant error comes from the uncertainty in the maximum transmittance of the polarizer.

文摘Atmospheric pressure plasma jet(APPJ)was used to clean nitrogen-containing carbon films(C–N)fabricated by plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition method employing the plasma surface interaction linear device at Sichuan University(SCU-PSI).The properties of the contaminated films on the surface of pristine and He-plasma pre-irradiated tungsten matrix,such as morphology,crystalline structure,element composition and chemical structure were characterized by scanning electron microscopy,grazing incidence x-ray diffraction and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.The experimental results revealed that the removal of C–N film with a thickness of tens of microns can be realized through APPJ cleaning regardless of the morphology of the substrates.Similar removal rates of 16.82 and 13.78μm min^(-1)were obtained for C–N films deposited on a smooth pristine W surface and rough fuzz-covered W surface,respectively.This is a remarkable improvement in comparison to the traditional cleaning method.However,slight surface oxidation was found after APPJ cleaning,but the degree of oxidation was acceptable with an oxidation depth increase of only 3.15 nm.Optical emission spectroscopy analysis and mass spectrometry analysis showed that C–N contamination was mainly removed through chemical reaction with reactive oxygen species during APPJ treatment using air as the working gas.These results make APPJ cleaning a potentially effective method for the rapid removal of C–N films from the wall surfaces of fusion devices.

文摘Based on ab initio density functional theory calculations,we demonstrate that two carbon-doped boron nitride analog ofα-graphyne structures,B_(3) C_(2) N_(3)) and BC_(6) N monolayers,are two-dimensional direct wide band gap semiconductors,and there are two inequivalent valleys in the vicinities of the vertices of their hexagonal Brillouin zones.Besides,B_(3)C_(2)N_(3) and BC_(6)N monolayers exhibit relatively high carrier mobilities,and their direct band gap feature is robust against the biaxial strain.More importantly,the energetically most favorable B_(3)C_(2)N_(3) and BC_(6)N bilayers also have direct wide band gaps,and valley polarization could be achieved by optical helicity.Finally,we show that BC_(6) N monolayer might have high efficiency in photo-splitting reactions of water,and a vertical van der Waals heterostructure with a type-Ⅱenergy band alignment could be designed using B_(3)C_(2)N_(3)and BC_(6)N monolayers.All the above-mentioned characteristics make B_(3)C_(2)N_(3) and BC_(6)N monolayers,bilayers,and their heterostructures recommendable candidates for applications in valleytronic devices,metal-free photocatalysts,and photovoltaic cells.

文摘The formation process of aromatic hydrocarbon tar during the pyrolysis process of biomass components of cel-lulose and lignin was carried out by quantum chemical calculation based on density functional theory method B3LYP/6-31G++(d,p).5 Hydroxymethylfurfural was chosen as the model compound of cellulose and hemicel-lulose,and syringa ldehyde was chosen as the model compound of lignin.The calculation results show that the formation process of cellulose monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon tar is the conversion process of benzene ring from furan ring,and the highest reaction energy barrier appears in the process of decarbonylation,which is 370.8 kJ/mol.The formation of lignin monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon tar is mainly the process of side chains removal and the formation of phenol,The highest reaction energy barrier appears in the process of decarbonyla-tion,which is 374.9 kJ/mol.The reaction mechanism of phenanthrene formation from naphthalene was selected as the formation of cellulose and lignin polycydic aromatic hydrocarbon tar.The calculation results show that he total barrier of the pathway that naphthalene dehydrogenates to form naphthalene free radicals and then reacts with ethylene twice by addition action,finally occurs cydization reactions and isomerizes to produce phenan-threne is lowest,that is 38.6 kJ/mol.So it is proved that the evolution of tar is the process of deoxygenation and cyclization with the increase of the temperature from a theoretical point of view.

文摘Oral iron supplements such as ferrous iron salts are major treatment agents for iron deficiency anemia(IDA)due to the convenience of large dose administration and good patient compliance.However,the gastrointestinal adverse impact caused by Fe2+stimulus and low bioavailability severely impedes its therapeutic effects.In recent years,it has been found that nano iron⁃based nanoparticles with high surface⁃to⁃volume ratio and low iron ion leakage can alleviate the toxic effect and improve the gastrointestinal absorbance.For further clinical development,nano materials need to meet the pharmaceutical quality demand.Carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC)is a significant pharmaceutical ingredient applied in approved drug formulations,and polyglucosorbitol carboxymethylether(PSC)has been utilized in iron⁃based nanomedicine ferumoxytol synthesis,both of which can be firmly anchored on iron oxide by carboxyl chelation.In this work,iron oxide nanoparticles(NPs)modified with CMC were designed and synthesized,and the structure composition and physicochemical properties were distinctly characterized.Oral supplement effects on rat IDA were investigated and compared with other recently reported iron supplements including NPs modified with PSC.Results show that the oral nano iron supplement achieved the recovery of hemoglobin and serum iron level in only two weeks with high safety.The nano iron oxide modified with pharmaceutical excipients provides new potential approach for oral iron supplement available in clinics.

文摘New observations of auroras based on the wide-field aurora imager(WAI)onboard Fengyun-3D(FY-3D)satellite are exhibited in this paper.Validity of the WAI data is analyzed by comparing auroral boundaries derived from WAI observations with results obtained from data collected by the Special Sensor Ultraviolet Spectrographic Imager(SSUSI)aboard the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program(DMSP F18).Dynamic variations of the aurora with the solar wind,interplanetary magnetic field(IMF)parameters,and the SYM-H index are also investigated.The comparison of auroral boundaries indicates that the WAI data are morphologically valid and suitable to the study of auroral dynamics.Effective responses to solar wind parameters indicate that the WAI data can be useful to monitor and predict the Earth’s space weather.Since the configuration of aurora is a good indicator of the solar wind–magnetosphere–ionosphere(SW-M-I)coupling system,and can reflect the disturbance of the space environment,the WAI will provide important data to help us to study the physical processes in space.
