Here, we prepared cobalt phosphonate-derived N-doped cobalt phosphate/carbon nanotube hybrids(Co Pi C-N/CNTs) by hydrothermal treatment of N-containing cobalt phosphonate and oxidized carbon nanotubes(o-CNT) followed by high-temperature calcination under nitrogen atmosphere. The resultant Co Pi C-N/CNT exhibits a superior electrocatalytic performance for the ORR in alkaline media, which is equal to the commercial Pt/C catalyst in the aspect of half-wave potential, onset potential and diffuse limiting current density. Furthermore, the excellent tolerance to methanol and strong durability outperform those of commercial Pt/C. It is found that cobalt phosphonate-derived N-doped cobalt phosphate and the in-situ formed graphitic carbons play key roles on the activity enhancement. Besides, introducing a suitable amount of CNTs enhances the electronic conductivity and further contributes to the improved ORR performance.展开更多

METHODS: All association studies on COL1A1 and high myopia reported up to June 10, 2014 in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Chinese Biomedical Database were retrieved. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were analyzed for single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using fixed- and random - effects models according to between-study heterogeneity. Publication bias analyses were conducted by Eggers test. RESULTS: A total of four studies from reported papers were included in this analysis. The Meta-analyses for COL1A1 rs2075555, composed of 2304 high myopia patients and 2272 controls, failed to detect any significant association with high myopia. A total of 971 cases and 649 controls were tested for COL1A1 rs2269336. The association of COL1A1 rs2269336 with high myopia was observed in recessive model (CC vs CG+GG, P = 0.03) and in heterozygous model (CG vsGG, P = 0.04), but not in other models. CONCLUSION: This Meta-analysis shows that COL fill rs2269336 (CC vs CG +GG) affects individual susceptibility to high myopia, whereas there is no association detected between SNPs rs2075555 and high myopia. Given the limited sample size, further investigations including more ethnic groups are required to validate the association.展开更多

But the st...Reluctance linear actuator, which has a unique property of small volume, low current and can produce great force, is a very promising actuator for the fine stage of the next-generation lithographic scanner. But the strong nonlinearities including the hysteresis, between the current and output force limits the reluctance linear actuator applications in nanometer positioning. In this paper, a new nonlinear control method is proposed for the stage having paired reluctance linear actuator with hysteresis using the direct adaptive neural network, which is used as a learning machine of nonlinearity. The feature of this method lies in that the nonlinear compensator in conventional methods, which computed the current reference from that of the input and output force is not used. This naturally overcomes the robustness issue with respect to parameter uncertainty. Simulation results show that the proposed method is effective in overcoming the nonlinearity between the input current and output force and promising in precision stage control.展开更多

文摘AIM:To systematically understand the genetic association between methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase(MTHFR)C677 T polymorphism and primary open angle glaucoma(POAG).METHODS:A comprehensive literature search in Google Scholar,Pub Med,Science Citation Index,Foreign Medical Literature Retrieval Service,Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure and Wanfang Databases was performed to collect all eligible studies up to August 2019.Study selection,data abstraction and study quality evaluation were performed by two independent investigators.Odds ratios(ORs)with 95%confidence intervals(CIs)were calculated to assess the association.RESULTS:Eighteen case-control studies including 2156 cases and 2201 controls were identified.There was no significant difference in the terms of MTHFR C677 T polymorphism and POAG in the Caucasian population(for T vs C OR=1.11,95%CI:0.88 to 1.39;for TT vs CC OR=1.01,95%CI:0.76 to 1.36;for TT+TC vs CC OR=1.15,95%CI:0.84 to 1.58 and for TT vs TC+CC OR=1.02,95%CI:0.78 to 1.33).However,a significant effect was revealed in the Asian population(for T vs C OR=1.34,95%CI:1.12 to 1.59;for TT+TC vs CC OR=1.41,95%CI:1.14 to 1.76).CONCLUSION:Based on 18 eligible studies,we provide a correlation between MTHFR C677 T polymorphism and POAG among the Asians subgroup indicating that the T allele or TT+TC genotype may play a critical role in POAG development in Asians.
文摘Reluctance linear actuator, which has a unique property of small volume, low current and can produce great force, is a very promising actuator for the fine stage of the next-generation lithographic scanner. But the strong nonlinearities including the hysteresis, between the current and output force limits the reluctance linear actuator applications in nanometer positioning. In this paper, a new nonlinear control method is proposed for the stage having paired reluctance linear actuator with hysteresis using the direct adaptive neural network, which is used as a learning machine of nonlinearity. The feature of this method lies in that the nonlinear compensator in conventional methods, which computed the current reference from that of the input and output force is not used. This naturally overcomes the robustness issue with respect to parameter uncertainty. Simulation results show that the proposed method is effective in overcoming the nonlinearity between the input current and output force and promising in precision stage control.
