文摘BACKGROUND Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy(LDP)has emerged as the preferred approach for both benign and malignant lesions located in the pancreatic body and tail.Nevertheless,a notable deficiency persists in the absence of a standardized,procedure-specific metric for evaluating and comparing surgical quality.A composite measure termed“textbook outcome(TO)”,which encompasses key short-term endpoints,has been validated in laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy but has not yet been established in dedicated LDP cohorts.The definition and prediction of TO in this context could aid in facilitating cross-institutional benchmarking and fostering advancements in quality improvement.AIM To establish procedure-specific criteria for TO and identify independent predictors of TO failure in patients undergoing LDP.METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent LDP at a single high-volume pancreatic center between January 2015 and August 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.TO was defined as the absence of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula(grade B/C),post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage(grade B/C),severe complications(Clavien-Dindo≥III),readmission within 30 days,and in-hospital or 30-day mortality.Multivariable logistic regression was employed to identify independent predictors of TO failure,and a nomogram was constructed and internally validated.RESULTS Among 405 eligible patients,286(70.6%)attained TO.Multivariable analysis revealed that female sex[odds ratio(OR)=0.62,95%confidence interval(CI):0.39-0.99]conferred a protective effect,while preoperative endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration(OR=2.66,95%CI:1.05-6.73),pancreatic portal hypertension(OR=2.81,95%CI:1.06-7.45),and cystic-solid(OR=2.51,95%CI:1.34-4.69)or solid lesions(OR=1.91,95%CI:1.06-3.44)were independently associated with TO failure(all P<0.05).The derived nomogram exhibited modest discrimination and calibration when assessed in both the training and validation datasets.CONCLUSION The proposed LDP-specific definition of TO is feasible and discriminative,and the developed nomogram provides an objective tool for individualized risk assessment.

文摘Marine pollution and overfishing induced the biodiversity loss and ecological degradation of the Beibu Gulf ecosystem in Guangxi,SE China.In an effort to restore the ecosystem and fishery resources,artificial reefs were deployed in the Beibu Gulf as the marine ranching area and their ecological performance need to be investigated.We constructed Ecopath ecological trophic models for the marine ranching area and a nearby control area to compare their ecosystem throughput and food web structure difference,and to calculate the ecological carrying capacity of various functional groups.Results indicate that the total system throughput of the marine ranching area was significantly higher than the control area,and the majority of system throughput occurred at trophic levelsⅠandⅡin both ecosystems.The system connectance indices for the marine ranching and control areas were 0.27 and 0.32,and the omnivory indices were 0.16 and 0.19,indicating simple food web structures;both areas are in a developmental stage with TPP/TR ratios of 2.69 and 9.36,respectively.Compared to the control area,marine ranching area exhibited a higher system maturity,and the ecological carrying capacity of“large and medium-sized demersal fish”and“other bivalves”functional groups in the marine ranching area increased by 43.83%and 233.62%,respectively,allowing for more high-trophic-level predators and large benthic animals.This study provided a reference for the formulation of fishery management policies in the Beibu Gulf,to maintain ecosystem stability and biodiversity.

文摘Sinter is the core raw material for blast furnaces.Flue pressure,which is an important state parameter,affects sinter quality.In this paper,flue pressure prediction and optimization were studied based on the shapley additive explanation(SHAP)to predict the flue pressure and take targeted adjustment measures.First,the sintering process data were collected and processed.A flue pressure prediction model was then constructed after comparing different feature selection methods and model algorithms using SHAP+extremely random-ized trees(ET).The prediction accuracy of the model within the error range of±0.25 kPa was 92.63%.SHAP analysis was employed to improve the interpretability of the prediction model.The effects of various sintering operation parameters on flue pressure,the relation-ship between the numerical range of key operation parameters and flue pressure,the effect of operation parameter combinations on flue pressure,and the prediction process of the flue pressure prediction model on a single sample were analyzed.A flue pressure optimization module was also constructed and analyzed when the prediction satisfied the judgment conditions.The operating parameter combination was then pushed.The flue pressure was increased by 5.87%during the verification process,achieving a good optimization effect.

文摘Osteoporosis is a prevalent skeletal condition characterized by reduced bone mass and strength,leading to increased fragility.Buqi-Tongluo(BQTL)decoction,a traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)prescription,has yet to be fully evaluated for its potential in treating bone diseases such as osteoporosis.To investigate the mechanism by which BQTL decoction inhibits osteoclast differentiation in vitro and validate these findings through in vivo experiments.We employed MTS assays to assess the potential proliferative or toxic effects of BQTL on bone marrow macrophages(BMMs)at various concentrations.TRAc P experiments were conducted to examine BQTL's impact on osteoclast differentiation.RT-PCR and Western blot analyses were utilized to evaluate the relative expression levels of osteoclast-specific genes and proteins under BQTL stimulation.Finally,in vivo experiments were performed using an osteoporosis model to further validate the in vitro findings.This study revealed that BQTL suppressed receptor activator of NF-κB ligand(RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast resorption activity in vitro in a dose-dependent manner without observable cytotoxicity.The inhibitory effects of BQTL on osteoclast formation and function were attributed to the downregulation of NFATc1 and c-fos activity,primarily through attenuation of the MAPK,NF-κB,and Calcineurin signaling pathways.BQTL's inhibitory capacity was further examined in vivo using an ovariectomized(OVX)rat model,demonstrating a strong protective effect against bone loss.BQTL may serve as an effective therapeutic TCM for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis and the alleviation of bone loss induced by estrogen deficiency and related conditions.

文摘BACKGROUND Fracture nonunion represents a challenging complication during fracture repair,often necessitating surgical intervention.Teriparatide,a recombinant human parathyroid hormone,has demonstrated promise in enhancing fracture healing,although its efficacy in treating established nonunion remains under investigation.CASE SUMMARY We report a case of a 27-year-old male who presented with a right humerus fracture following a traffic accident.Despite undergoing open reduction and internal fixation,the fracture resulted in a delayed union and subsequent nonunion.After 4 years of conservative management,teriparatide treatment was initiated due to persistent nonunion.Teriparatide injections were administered daily for 6 months,resulting in complete fracture healing and resolution of pain.CONCLUSION Our case demonstrates the successful use of teriparatide in treating a prolonged nonunion of a humerus fracture.Teriparatide may provide a valuable therapeutic option for established bone nonunion,even in cases that have not responded to conservative treatments.

文摘Based on the detrital zircon U-Pb dating data,this paper discusses the provenance and constructs source-to-sink system of the Upper Jurassic in the North Yellow Sea Basin(NYSB),eastern North China Craton(ENCC).In addition,to avoid the bias of detrital zircon ages caused by variations in zircon fertility,we collected 1709 whole rock zirconium content values(ppm)from granitic rocks with different ages in the North China Craton(NCC).Based on mean Zr content of granitic rocks in each age,these granitic rocks can be divided into four groups:Group A consists of Jurassic,Group B consists of Paleozoic,Neo-Mesoproterozoic and Neoarchean,Group C consists of Early Cretaceous and Triassic,and Group D consists of Paleoproterozoic.This research assigns to these groups zircon fertility factors(ZFF)of 1,1.4,1.8 and 2.2.The U-Pb age of detrital zircons from Late Jurassic sediments corrected by ZFF is statistically analyzed(K-S test,similarity,crosscorrelation,linkeness,and multidimensional scaling).And combining with paleocurrent and paleogeography,we construct two source-to-sink systems:(1)Jiaodong uplift and Sulu Orogenic Belt as the source area and the North Yellow Sea Basin as the sink area;(2)Liaodong Peninsula as the source area and the North Yellow Sea Basin as the sink area.

文摘Coastal wetlands face dual pressures from high salinity and heavy metal pollution,presenting significant ecological challenges.Halophytes like Sesuvium portulacastrum possess unique physiological mechanisms to mitigate metal toxicity.This study investigates how silicon (Si) availability influences the accumulation of copper (Cu) and cadmium (Cd) in S.portulacastrum.Our results show that Si supplementation at environmentally relevant levels significantly increases Cu and Cd concentrations in the roots,while simultaneously reducing the root-to-shoot translocation of these metals.In situ non-invasive micro-testing revealed decreased metal efflux from the xylem,indicating an enhanced retention of metals in the roots.Furthermore,analyses using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy demonstrated a higher density of oxygen-containing functional groups and SiO-on the extracellular matrix of Si-enriched roots.This structural transformation resulted in a significant reduction in root surface potential,facilitating greater metal ion attraction and uptake.The findings from this study provide critical insights into the mechanisms by which Si availability regulates metal accumulation in halophytes,suggesting potential strategies for mitigating metal pollution in coastal wetland ecosystems.

文摘Superhydrophobic surface is a promising strategy for antibacterial and corrosion protection.However,the use of harmful fluorine-containing materials,poor mechano-chemical stability,the addition of fungicides and poor corrosion resistance often limit its practical application.In this paper,a high-robustness pho-tothermal self-healing superhydrophobic coating is prepared by simply spraying a mixture of hydropho-bically modified epoxy resin and two kinds of modified nanofillers(carbon nanotubes and SiO2)for long-term anticorrosion and antibacterial applications.Multi-scale network and lubrication structures formed by cross-linking of modified carbon nanotubes and repeatable roughness endow coating with high ro-bustness,so that the coating maintains superhydrophobicity even after 100 Taber abrasion cycles,20 m sandpaper abrasion and 100 tape peeling cycles.The synergistic effect of antibacterial adhesion and pho-tothermal bactericidal activity endows coating with excellent antibacterial efficiency,which against Es-cherichia coli(E.coli)and Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus)separately reaches 99.6% and 99.8%.Moreover,the influence of modified epoxy resin,superhydrophobicity,organic coating and coating thicknesses on the anticorrosion of magnesium(Mg)alloy is systematically studied and analyzed.More importantly,the prepared coating still exhibits excellent self-cleaning,anticorrosion and antibacterial abilities after 20 m abrasion.Furthermore,the coating exhibits excellent adhesion(level 4B),chemical stability,UV radiation resistance,high-low temperature alternation resistance,stable heat production capacity and photother-mal self-healing ability.All these excellent performances can promote its application in a wider range of fields.

文摘Alzheimer's disease,the primary cause of dementia,is characterized by neuropathologies,such as amyloid plaques,synaptic and neuronal degeneration,and neurofibrillary tangles.Although amyloid plaques are the primary characteristic of Alzheimer's disease in the central nervous system and peripheral organs,targeting amyloid-beta clearance in the central nervous system has shown limited clinical efficacy in Alzheimer's disease treatment.Metabolic abnormalities are commonly observed in patients with Alzheimer's disease.The liver is the primary peripheral organ involved in amyloid-beta metabolism,playing a crucial role in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease.Notably,impaired cholesterol metabolism in the liver may exacerbate the development of Alzheimer's disease.In this review,we explore the underlying causes of Alzheimer's disease and elucidate the role of the liver in amyloid-beta clearance and cholesterol metabolism.Furthermore,we propose that restoring normal cholesterol metabolism in the liver could represent a promising therapeutic strategy for addressing Alzheimer's disease.

文摘Memristive crossbar arrays(MCAs)offer parallel data storage and processing for energy-efficient neuromorphic computing.However,most wafer-scale MCAs that are compatible with complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor(CMOS)technology still suffer from substantially larger energy consumption than biological synapses,due to the slow kinetics of forming conductive paths inside the memristive units.Here we report wafer-scale Ag_(2)S-based MCAs realized using CMOS-compatible processes at temperatures below 160℃.Ag_(2)S electrolytes supply highly mobile Ag+ions,and provide the Ag/Ag_(2)S interface with low silver nucleation barrier to form silver filaments at low energy costs.By further enhancing Ag+migration in Ag_(2)S electrolytes via microstructure modulation,the integrated memristors exhibit a record low threshold of approximately−0.1 V,and demonstrate ultra-low switching-energies reaching femtojoule values as observed in biological synapses.The low-temperature process also enables MCA integration on polyimide substrates for applications in flexible electronics.Moreover,the intrinsic nonidealities of the memristive units for deep learning can be compensated by employing an advanced training algorithm.An impressive accuracy of 92.6%in image recognition simulations is demonstrated with the MCAs after the compensation.The demonstrated MCAs provide a promising device option for neuromorphic computing with ultra-high energy-efficiency.

文摘Although the application of straw decomposing microorganism inoculants(SDMI)can accelerate straw decomposition,the underlying mechanisms affecting soil organic carbon(SOC)under different scenarios remain unclear.We conducted a meta-analysis using 226 observations from 86 studies on SOC changes under straw return with or without SDMI applications.Overall,our results indicated that straw with SDMI application increased the SOC stock by 1.51%at an initial carbon-to-nitrogen ratio(ICNR)>25(P<0.05),while the effect of ICNR≤25was insignificant.In particular,at ICNR>25,application of SDMI-treated straw increased SOC stocks in northern temperate continental areas(NTC)higher than in subtropical monsoon regions(STM).Furthermore,the straw with SDMI application increased higher SOC stocks in soils with pH>7.5 than those with pH≤7.5.In terms of agricultural management practices,SOC stocks were significantly higher in straw buried(SB),the experimental duration of straw return(EDSR)≥1 year,the straw return amount(SRA)>6,000 kg ha^(–1),and the SDMI application rate(SDMIR)>30 kg ha^(–1)conditions.The effect of straw with SDMI on SOC stocks under straw burying(SB)was significantly higher than that under straw mulching(SM)at ICNR≤25.At ICNR>25,EDSR,SDMIR,and the mean annual precipitation(MAP)were the main drivers of the effect of SDMI addition to straw on SOC stocks.Straw with SDMI induced SOC stock increases which increased with EDSR and decreased with increasing MAP.These findings provide a scientific basis for decision-makers and stakeholders to improve soil C management via the application of SDMI-amended straw at both regional and large scales.
