Here, electrical stimulation, as a food-friendly nonthermal processing technology, was applied to red meat samples to reduce the Neu5Gc content. To explore the Neu5Gc structure changes during this process, electronic structure parameters were evaluated, and AIM( atom in molecules) theory and DFT(density function theory) calculations were further used. The results showed that the content of Nue5Gc in red meat can be reduced by(74.24 ± 0.69)% at 120 V for 50 s, with little impact on the meat texture and color. Theoretical calculations indicated that the Neu5Gc molecule becomes very unstable under electrical stimulation by increasing the O-H bond length, reactive activity, strength of intermolecular dipole forces and total energy through reducing the values of bond dissociation energy and strength of intramolecular hydrogen bonds. Overall, this research provides an economical method to effectively control red meat safety.展开更多

The current first-line treatment for IH is oral propranolol;however, some studies recommend intralesional corticosteroid injections for small, limited, deep, or prominent tumors because of concern regarding serious systemic complications related to propranolol. This review summarizes and analyzes the current clinical studies on corticosteroid injections in IHs, discusses treatment norms, and explores future research directions.展开更多

Typically, these devices use universal hardware and software to connect with public networks via the Internet, and are probably open to security threats from Trojan viruses and other malware. As a result, the security of sensitive personal data is threatened and economic interests in the industry are compromised. To address the run-time security problems efficiently, first, a TrustEnclave-based secure architecture is proposed, and the trusted execution environment is constructed by hardware isolation technology. Then the prototype system is implemented on real TrustZone-enabled hardware devices. Finally, both analytical and experimental evaluations are provided. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed security scheme.展开更多

文摘The hazardous substance Neu5Gc(N-glycolylneuraminic acid), which is rich in red meat, is related to chronic inflammation but is hard to eliminate. Here, electrical stimulation, as a food-friendly nonthermal processing technology, was applied to red meat samples to reduce the Neu5Gc content. To explore the Neu5Gc structure changes during this process, electronic structure parameters were evaluated, and AIM( atom in molecules) theory and DFT(density function theory) calculations were further used. The results showed that the content of Nue5Gc in red meat can be reduced by(74.24 ± 0.69)% at 120 V for 50 s, with little impact on the meat texture and color. Theoretical calculations indicated that the Neu5Gc molecule becomes very unstable under electrical stimulation by increasing the O-H bond length, reactive activity, strength of intermolecular dipole forces and total energy through reducing the values of bond dissociation energy and strength of intramolecular hydrogen bonds. Overall, this research provides an economical method to effectively control red meat safety.

文摘Objective: To follow the guidelines of intercultural adaptation provided by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons’(AAOS) Evidence-Based Medicine Committee, translating the original scale and evaluating the reliability and validity, and then to compile the Chinese version of the Management of Aggression and Violence Attitude Scale (MAVAS) for nurses in emergency room in the mainland of China. Methods: This study consists of two phases of testing:(1) translation: forward translation, synthesis, back translation, expert committee review, and pretesting;(2) psychometric properties: content and construct validity, internal consistency, and test–retest reliability. Results: The Chinese version of MAVAS and the original version showed excellent similarities and equivalence. The average Scalelevel Content Validity Index was 0.904, and the Item-level Content Validity Index ranged from 0.80 to 1.00. The construct validity was tested using confirmatory factor analysis by LISREL 8.7;χ2/df of the scale was 4.781<5, NFI, NNFI, CFI, IFI>0.90, indicating that the scale’s factor structure model fitted better. The internal consistency was satisfactory (scale, Cronbach’s α=0.94;subscales, Cronbach’s α=0.74–0.90), and the test–retest reliability over 2 weeks was good (scale, Pearson’s coefficient=0.996;subscales, Pearson’s coefficient=0.801–0.963). Conclusions: The Chinese version of MAVAS had an excellent feasibility. It was found to be a valid and reliable tool to assess nurses’ attitude toward patients’ violence in emergency department.

文摘Infantile hemangiomas(IHs) are the most common benign soft-tissue tumors in infancy;about 10%–15% of them may result in various complications that require active management. The current first-line treatment for IH is oral propranolol;however, some studies recommend intralesional corticosteroid injections for small, limited, deep, or prominent tumors because of concern regarding serious systemic complications related to propranolol. This review summarizes and analyzes the current clinical studies on corticosteroid injections in IHs, discusses treatment norms, and explores future research directions.
文摘Objective:To study the effects of neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) intervention on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell osteoblast differentiation as well as cell proliferation and apoptosis. Methods: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were cultured and divided into control group, 25 ng/mL NT-3 group, 50 ng/mL NT-3 group and 100 ng/mL NT-3 group, they were treated with different doses of NT-3 for 24 h, and then osteoblast marker gene, cell proliferation gene and apoptosis gene expression were determined.Results: RUNX2, Osterix, ALP, OCN, BMP-2, Bcl-2, Nrf2, ERK1/2 and PCNA mRNA expression in 25 ng/mL NT-3 group, 50 ng/mL NT-3 group and 100 ng/mL NT-3 group were significantly higher than those in control group whereas Bim, Bax, Caspase-3, CHOP and Beclin1 mRNA expression were significantly lower than those in control group, and the larger the dose of NT-3, the higher the RUNX2, Osterix, ALP, OCN, BMP-2, Bcl-2, Nrf2, ERK1/2 and PCNA mRNA expression whereas the lower the Bim, Bax, Caspase-3, CHOP and Beclin1 mRNA expression.Conclusion: NT-3 intervention in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can promote osteoblast differentiation and cell proliferation and inhibit apoptosis.

文摘Water has been detected in lunar regolith,with multiple sources identified through the analysis of individual grains.However,the primary origin of water in the bulk lunar regolith remains uncertain.This study presents spectroscopic analyses of water content in sealed Chang’e-5 samples.These samples were sieved into various size fractions(bulk,<45μm,and 45–355μm)inside a glovebox filled with high-purity nitrogen.Results indicate a higher water content in the fine fractions(~87±11.9 ppm)than in bulk soil(~37±4.8 ppm)and coarse fractions(~11±1.5 ppm).This suggests that water is predominantly concentrated in the outermost rims of the regolith grains,and thus exhibits dependence on the surface volume ratio(also known as surface correlation),indicating solar wind is a primary source of lunar surface water.Laboratory,in-situ,and orbital results bridge sample analysis and remote sensing,offering a cohesive understanding of lunar surface water characteristics as represented by Chang’e-5.The discovery provides statistical evidence for the origin of water in lunar soil and can be considered representative of the lunar surface conditions.The water enrichment of the finest fraction suggests the feasibility of employing size sorting of lunar soils as a potential technological approach for water resource extraction in future lunar research stations.

文摘The run-time security guarantee is a hotspot in current cyberspace security research, especially on embedded terminals, such as smart hardware as well as wearable and mobile devices. Typically, these devices use universal hardware and software to connect with public networks via the Internet, and are probably open to security threats from Trojan viruses and other malware. As a result, the security of sensitive personal data is threatened and economic interests in the industry are compromised. To address the run-time security problems efficiently, first, a TrustEnclave-based secure architecture is proposed, and the trusted execution environment is constructed by hardware isolation technology. Then the prototype system is implemented on real TrustZone-enabled hardware devices. Finally, both analytical and experimental evaluations are provided. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed security scheme.

文摘To obtain protease-and lipase-producing halotolerant/halophilic strains suitable for shrimp paste(SP)fermentation,the microbial community structure and enzyme-producing microbial species were analyzed and predicted using metagenomics in 3 high-salt samples.Based on the linear salt gradient method,128 strains were screened.Eight halotolerant/halophilic strains highly producing 2 types of enzymes were identified and inoculated into lowsalt SP to assess the heterogeneity of SP.Physicochemical properties of SP indicated that Bacillus subtilis XJ-11,Virgibacillus halodenitrificans XJ-229,Piscibacillus halophilus XY-193,and Bacillus vallismortis HT-73 were more suitable for rapid fermentation of SP.Nutritional analysis showed that SP inoculated with V.halodenitrificans XJ-229 had the highest free amino acid content and SP inoculated with P.halophilus XY-193 had the highest unsaturated fatty acid content.The former had prominent umami,sweetness,and meaty aroma,weak bitterness and fishy flavor,and the closest flavor to the control(CP)based on sensory evaluation and E-nose analysis.A total of 61 volatile compounds were detected in all samples by SPME-GC-MS,of which 32,23,40,24,and 28 were detected in the CP and SP inoculated with B.subtilis XJ-11,V.halodenitrificans XJ-229,P.halophilus XY-193,and B.vallismortis HT-73,respectively,with 12,11,12,9,and 9 key flavor compounds.Among several samples,the highest levels of pyrazines,aldehydes,alcohols,and ketones were found in SP inoculated with B.subtilis XJ-11,V.halodenitrificans XJ-229,P.halophilus XY-193,and B.vallismortis HT-73,respectively.These results suggested that inoculation of different enzyme-producing halotolerant/halophilic strains resulted in differences in SP quality and main flavors.This study provides some references for process control and interpretation of heterogeneous mechanisms in low-salt SP fermented by inoculated strains.

文摘Electrocatalytic CO_(2)reduction reaction(CO_(2)RR)in acidic media is a promising approach to overcome the unavoidable formation of carbonates in alkaline or neutral electrolytes.However,the proton-rich environment near the catalyst surface favors hydrogen evolution reactions(HER),leading to lower energy efficiency of the desired products,especially in industrial-level current densities.Here,quaternary ammonium cationic surfactant(cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTAB))was introduced into acidic electrolyte to modulate the interfacial microenvironment,which greatly enhanced CO_(2)electroreduction to formic acid(HCOOH)at the Bi/C nanoparticles electrode.Using a Bi/C nanoparticles electrode with CTAB added,constant production of formic acid was enabled with a cathodic energy efficiency of>40%and maximum FE_(HCOOH)(FE=Faradaic efficiency)of 86.2%at−400 mA·cm^(−2)over 24 h.Combined with in-situ attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,the concentration of*OCHO intermediates significantly increased after CTAB modification,confirming that the hydrophobic interface microenvironment formed by dynamic adsorption of positively charged long alkyl chains on Bi/C nanoparticle electrodes inhibited HER and improved the selectivity of CO_(2)RR to HCOOH.
