After stabilization on methadone for four weeks, blood samples from 95 participants were collected between treatment weeks 4 and 12, before and after receiving doses of methadone, and its blood levels were measured. A multiple linear regression model was used to examine the associa- tion between methadone blood levels and the outcomes of methadone maintenance treatment (MMT). Outcome dif- ferences between participants who had high (≥2) or low (〈2) peak-to-trough ratios were also compared using an independent sample t-test. The blood level of methadone was not correlated with the clinical outcome of MMT with the moderate range of doses given. However, the retention of patients who had a free peak-to-trough ratio 〉2 was significantly poorer than those whose ratio was 〈2. Thus, monitoring plasma methadone levels is unlikely to be effective for guiding dosing decisions in situations where compliance with MMT is already very high or when themethadone dose is no longer the dominant factor in determining the clinical outcome. However, monitoring plasma methadone levels is still helpful for guiding the dosage for patients with a rapid metabolism.展开更多

Fishes possess a well-developed olfactory system that governs various behaviors related to feeding, reproduction, and fear. However, the cellular diversity and heterogeneity of the fish olfactory epithelium remains largely unexplored. This study presents a single-cell atlas of the zebrafish olfactory epithelium using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). Through scRNA-seq analysis of approximately 10,587 cells, we identified nine distinct cell types with unique transcriptional profiles, including immature and mature olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs), horizontal basal cells, globose basal cells, and sustentacular cells, as well as lymphocyte and myeloid cells expressing immune signals. Further subcluster analysis revealed selective and combinatorial expression of key components in odorant-mediated signal transduction by distinct OSN populations. Additionally, we discovered transcriptional changes specific to certain OSN populations following exposure to a conspecific alarm substance. The single-cell transcriptional atlas of the zebrafish olfactory epithelium provided in this study serves as a valuable tool for exploring cell diversity and assessing genetic profiles from functional and behavioral perspectives in fish.展开更多

The effective thermal conductivity was measured for various nanoparticle volume fractions (0.0001-0.02) and temperatures (306.22-452.66 K). The experimental data compares well with the Jang and Choi model, The thermal conductivity enhancement was lower above 391.06 K than for that between 306,22 and 360,77 K, The interfacial thermal resistance increased with increasing temperature, The effective thermal conductivity enhancement was greater than that obtained with a more viscous fluid as the base media at 452,66 K because of nanoconvection induced by nanoparticle Brownian motion at high temoerature.展开更多

In comparison with a single-cavity system, relative frequency instability of the synthesized laser can be improved by a factor of the square root of the cavity number. We perform an experiment to simulate a two-cavity system with two independent ultrastable lasers. Experimental results show that the relative frequency instability(Allan deviation) of the synthesized laser is 5 × 10^(-16), improved by a factor of √2 from a single-cavity-stabilized laser.展开更多

文摘Initially,zolpidem,a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic agent,was considered to have fewer adverse reactions than traditional benzodiazepines.However,after zolpidem was approved for medical use,an increasing number of case reports have described abuse or dependence complications.We were especially interested in the cases of dependence that presented a paradoxical‘euphoric’effect of zolpidem.This article reports the case of a female zolpidem-dependent patient who presented with 6 years of daily use of 400-1400 mg of zolpidem.She reported subjective effects of euphoria,intense craving and the inability to stop drug ingestion.Her diagnoses were zolpidem dependence and a depressive episode induced by substance abuse.To explore the neural mechanisms of the euphoric effect caused by high-dose zolpidem,we performed repeated magnetoencephalography(MEG)recordings.Before undergoing detoxification,her MEG results indicated that cerebellar electrical signal activation increased when taking high zolpidem doses.However,the prefrontal and parietal lobes’electrical signal activity showed a tendency to recover to a normal state as the withdrawal time progressed to completion.This case suggests that the cerebellum plays a role in the euphoria induced by high zolpidem doses and provides clues for further research.

Through scRNA-seq analysis of approximately 10,587 cells, we identified nine distinct cell types with unique transcriptional profiles, including immature and mature olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs), horizontal basal cells, globose basal cells, and sustentacular cells, as well as lymphocyte and myeloid cells expressing immune signals. Further subcluster analysis revealed selective and combinatorial expression of key components in odorant-mediated signal transduction by distinct OSN populations. Additionally, we discovered transcriptional changes specific to certain OSN populations following exposure to a conspecific alarm substance. The single-cell transcriptional atlas of the zebrafish olfactory epithelium provided in this study serves as a valuable tool for exploring cell diversity and assessing genetic profiles from functional and behavioral perspectives in fish.

文摘Optical phase transfer via fiber optics is the most effective method for optical frequency standard comparison on the scale below thousands of kilometers.However,the monotonic phase discrimination range of conventional optical phase-locked loops is limited,and link delays restrict the control bandwidth,which makes it a challenge to achieve a continuously reliable optical link.This paper presents an event-timing-based phase detection method that overcomes the monotonic phase discrimination range limitation of conventional phase-locked loops through dual-edge timestamp recording,achieving an optical phase measurement resolution on the order of 10 attoseconds.With such a technique,we established a 7-segment-cascaded optical link over 1402km of commercial fiber while sharing dense wavelength division multiplexing(DWDM)channels with live telecom traffic.The system maintained continuous operation for 11.7 days without phase cycle slips despite encountering 15 km aerial fiber noise up to 21000 rad^(2)·Hz^(−1)·km^(−1)at 1 Hz.Relative instabilities of the link are 3.7×10^(−15)at 1 s and 3.9×10^(−20)at 100000 s.

文摘We demonstrate two ultra-stable laser systems at 1064 nm by independently stabilizing two 10-cm-long Fabry–Pérot cavities.The reference cavities are on a cubic spacer,which is rigidly mounted for both low sensitivity to environmental vibration and ability for transportation.By comparing against an independent ultra-stable laser at 578 nm via an optical frequency comb,the 1064 nm lasers are measured to have frequency instabilities of 6×10^-16 at 1 s averaging time.

文摘Whole-genome duplications(WGDs)are an important contributor to phenotypic innovations in evolutionary history.The diversity of blood oxygen transport traits is the perfect reflection of physiological versatility for evolutionary success among vertebrates.In this study,the evolutionary changes of hemoglobin(Hb)repertoire driven by the recent genome duplications were detected in representative Cyprinidae fish,including eight diploid and four tetraploid species.Comparative genomic analysis revealed a substantial variation in both membership composition and intragenomic organization of Hb genes in these species.Phylogenetic reconstruction analyses were conducted to characterize the evolutionary history of these genes.Data were integrated with the expression profiles of the genes during ontogeny.Our results indicated that genome duplications facilitated the phenotypic diversity of the Hb gene family;each was associated with species-specific changes in gene content via gene loss and fusion after genome duplications.This led to repeated evolutionary transitions in the ontogenic regulation of Hb gene expression.Our results revealed that genome duplications helped to generate phenotypic changes in Cyprinidae Hb systems.

文摘Nanofluids were prepared by dispersing Cu nanoparticles (-20nm) in n-tetradecane by a two-step method. The effective thermal conductivity was measured for various nanoparticle volume fractions (0.0001-0.02) and temperatures (306.22-452.66 K). The experimental data compares well with the Jang and Choi model, The thermal conductivity enhancement was lower above 391.06 K than for that between 306,22 and 360,77 K, The interfacial thermal resistance increased with increasing temperature, The effective thermal conductivity enhancement was greater than that obtained with a more viscous fluid as the base media at 452,66 K because of nanoconvection induced by nanoparticle Brownian motion at high temoerature.
文摘Electrocatalytically converting nitrate waste to value-added ammonia(NO3−RR)is beneficial to environmental restoration and an attractive candidate for green ammonia production[1].However,developing NO_(3)^(-)RR in an energy-saving way remains a significant challenge due to the slow kinetics inherent in multi-step electron and proton transfer,making previous investigations for NO_(3)^(-)RR generally operate at a large overpotential(<-0.2 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode(RHE))to achieve optimal efficiency and industrial current for NH3 synthesis[2].

文摘We demonstrate a proposal for making an ultrastable laser referenced to a multi-cavity, enabling a lower thermal noise limit due to the averaging effect. In comparison with a single-cavity system, relative frequency instability of the synthesized laser can be improved by a factor of the square root of the cavity number. We perform an experiment to simulate a two-cavity system with two independent ultrastable lasers. Experimental results show that the relative frequency instability(Allan deviation) of the synthesized laser is 5 × 10^(-16), improved by a factor of √2 from a single-cavity-stabilized laser.
