To simulate the quantum noise, the random numbers obeying noise distribution must be formed and are weighted on the basis of the model created. Three uniform random sequences are built by the linear congruential method, of which two are used to form integer number and decimal fraction parts of the new random sequence respectively and the third to shuffle the new sequence. And then a Gauss sequence is formed out of uniform distribution by a function transforming method. It actualizes the simulation in real time of quantum noise in the low light imaging system, where video flow is extracted in real time, the noise summed up and played back side by side with the original video signs by a simulation software.展开更多

[Method] Five phosphate fertilization levels were designed for wheat and corn respectively to investigate the effects of phosphate fertilization level on wheat/corn intercropping system by field block experiment. [Result] The number of til ers, plant height and yield component of wheat trended to increase with the increase of phos-phate fertilization amount and al reached the peak for phosphate fertilization amount of 135 kg/hm2. However, the number of til ers, plant height and yield component of wheat al decreased significantly with the further increase of phosphate fertilization amount. [Conclusion] Phosphate fertilization contributed to the wheat growth in a certain degree. However, excessive phosphate fertilization would affect final yield.展开更多

文摘The low-energy excited states in the neutron-deficient nucleus^(91)Ru were populated via the^(58)Ni(^(36)Ar,2p1nγ)^(91)Ru reaction at a beam energy of 111 MeV.Charged particles,neutrons,andγrays were emitted in the reactions and detected using a DIAMANT CsI ball,neutron wall,and EXOGAM Ge clover array,respectively.Angular-correlation and linear polarization measurements were performed to determine the spins and parities of the excited states unambiguously.In addition to the previously reported states,a new low-energy-level structure of^(91)Ru,including one 7/2^(+)and two 11/2^(+)states,was established.Similar structures have also been reported in lighter N=47 even-odd isotones down to85Sr,which were expected to come from the three-neutron-holevg_(9/2)^(-3)configuration.A semiempirical shell model was used to explain the level systematics of the N=47 even-odd isotones.Calculated results indicated that the 7/2^(+)and the vg_(9/2)^(-3)states~are mainly associated with the seniority-threeν(g_(9/2))-3excitations,while the vg_(9/2)^(-3)level is most likely interpreted as a seniorityυ=1 configuration of three neutron holes in theνg_(9∕2)orbital_weakly coupled to a 2^(+)excitation of the^(88)Sr core.A comparison between the calculation and experiment shows that the two 11/2^(+)excited states display an increase in mixing with proton number Z added from^(87)Zr up to^(91)Ru.
文摘Irrigation service defines the responsibilities and rights of irrigation system management agencies,water users,and other parties involved in the irrigation service contract.As a result,the irrigation service must be clearly specified and updated by crop seasons and by all partners.Given the inherent complexity of the service,this article presents and discusses the development and application of a computer model designed to support the specification of public service levels in rice-based irrigation systems.Applied to the Tu Mai irrigation system,the model has enabled all involved parties to define irrigation service levels through systematic analysis and a thorough consideration of constraints such as water resource characteristics,hydraulic structures,and the operational plans of the irrigation system.The research findings have also helped relevant agencies reach agreements on irrigation service levels for the particular irrigation season of spring 2023,which included one irrigation period for land preparation and five subsequent irrigation periods for rice crops corresponding with a specific schedule for operating the system(discharges and duration)that met the farmers’requests for their farming practices and reduced the loss due to rice crop yield decline at the irrigation system as a whole.Additionally,recommendations for improving irrigation services in the Tu Mai system have been made,including upgrading the head pumping station to accommodate lower water levels in the Cau River,aligning the irrigation schedules of the Water User Associations(WUAs)more flexibly,and strictly supervising water deliveries to ensure safety and fairness.

文摘Emerging infectious diseases(EIDs)pose a significant threat to public health.Effective surveillance and early warning systems that monitor EIDs in a timely manner are crucial for their control.Given that more than half of EIDs are zoonotic,traditional integrated surveillance systems remain inadequate.Despite recent advances in integrated systems in China,there are few systemic reviews on the integrated surveillance and early warning system of EIDs at community level,particularly under the One Health framework.Here,this systematic review summarizes the current status of surveillance advances in China,including the multi-trigger integrated monitor system.It also highlights the mechanisms for embedding the One Health approach into local policy and practice,while identifying challenges and opportunities for improvement.Additionally,guidelines and recommendations are proposed to optimize the integration of multi-sectoral,multi-level and interdisciplinary cooperation at the human-animal-environment interface.

文摘BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer(CRC)is a common malignant tumor of the digestive system that poses a serious threat to human health.During the perioperative period,patients with CRC are prone to nutritional risks and malnutrition.Compared with traditional nutritional support,immunostimulatory nutrients,including glutamine(Gln),have attracted increasing attention.Although many previous studies have reported that perioperative Gln supplementation can improve short-term clinical outcomes in patients with CRC,some studies have not demonstrated a benefit.Resolution of Gln supplementation value thus requires further exploration.AIM To clarify the influence of perioperative Gln-enhanced nutritional support on postoperative outcomes including nutritional status,immune function,inflammation levels,morbidity due to complications,and length of hospital stay(LOS).METHODS A comprehensive literature search was conducted(inception to June 2025).PubMed,EMBASE,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,China Biomedical Database,CNKI,VIP,and the Wanfang Electronic Database were searched.This meta-analysis ultimately included 27 studies with a total of 1643 patients;827 patients received perioperative Gln treatment and 816 received conventional nutritional therapy.A random-effects model was used to pool relative risks(RR)and mean differences(MD)with 95%confidence intervals(CI).RESULTS Pooled analysis showed that Gln intervention reduced morbidity associated with postoperative infectious complications(RR=0.36;95%CI:0.24-0.54)and non-infectious complications(RR=0.32;95%CI:0.19-0.55)and shortened the LOS by 2.31 days(MD=-2.31;95%CI:-3.21 to-1.41)in CRC patients.Gln supplementation also increased serum albumin,prealbumin,peripheral blood lymphocyte count,and nitrogen balance levels and improved humoral and cellular immune function.We also found that postoperative tumor necrosis factor-αand C-reactive protein levels were lower in Gln-supplemented patients.By contrast,Gln supplementation did not improve CD8+and CD4+/CD8+levels.CONCLUSION Gln supplementation effectively improved short-term clinical outcomes in patients with CRC.

文摘A hybrid energy system is built for the power demand of a community in Xinjiang of China,and pumped storage and lithium batteries are used as energy storage devices.The feasibility of different configurations is evaluated through technoeconomic analysis.Technical-economic parameters are set in the HOMER Pro software to obtain optimal configuration and techno-economic evaluation and sensitivity analysis.The study also explores the impact of different types of PV tracking systems and module costs on system performance.The results show that the lowest levelized cost of energy(LCOE)(0.135$/kWh)can be achieved with pumped hydro,which is more economical than lithium batteries.PV tracking systems can improve solar efficiency.Compared with diesel systems,renewable energy has economic advantages and environmental benefits.In most regions of Xinjiang,solar energy is more competitive than wind power.In areas with abundant wind resources,the integration of wind and solar energy can reduce costs.
文摘In the context of global change,understanding changes in water resources requires close monitoring of groundwater levels.A mismatch between water supply and demand could lead to severe consequences such as land subsidence.To ensure a sustainable water supply and to minimize the environmental effects of land subsidence,groundwater must be effectively monitored and managed.Despite significant global progress in groundwater management,the swift advancements in technology and artificial intelligence(AI)have spurred extensive studies aimed at enhancing the accuracy of groundwater predictions.This study proposes an AI-based method that combines deep learning with a cloud-supported data processing workflow.The method utilizes river level data from the Zhuoshui River alluvial fan area in Taiwan,China to forecast groundwater level fluctuations.A hybrid imputation scheme is applied to reduce data errors and improve input continuity,including Z-score anomaly detection,sliding window segmentation,and STL-SARIMA-based imputation.The prediction model employs the BiLSTM model combined with the Bayesian optimization algorithm,achieving an R2 of 0.9932 and consistently lower MSE values than those of the LSTM and RNN models across all experiments.Specifically,BiLSTM reduces MSE by 62.9%compared to LSTM and 72.6%compared to RNN,while also achieving the lowest MAE and MAPE scores,demonstrating its superior accuracy and robustness in groundwater level forecasting.This predictive advantage stems from the integration of a hybrid statistical imputation process with a BiLSTM model optimized through Bayesian search.These components collectively enable a reliable and integrated forecasting system that effectively models groundwater level variations,thereby providing a practical solution for groundwater monitoring and sustainable water resource management.
文摘In the context of the continuous deepening of the“Double Reduction”policy and the growing demand for quality education,leveled mathematics readers,as an emerging form of publishing that integrates subject education and reading experience,face challenges such as unclear leveling logic,insufficient functional support,and weak user engagement.This paper introduces the 4V marketing theory and constructs an analytical framework from four dimensions:differentiation,functionality,added value,and resonance.Two representative products,“Climbing Mathematics”and“Spark Mathematics,”are selected for a typical case comparison to identify their strengths and weaknesses in content design,service systems,and brand operation,and to extract transferable strategic elements.The study finds that the user-value-oriented strategy based on the 4V model can effectively address the core issues in the market promotion and user relationship building of leveled mathematics readers,providing practical paths and theoretical support for educational publishing institutions to achieve product innovation and brand upgrading in this niche field.

文摘BACKGROUND Systemic immune-inflammation index(SII)combined with serum lactoferrin(LF)level can provide a reference for predicting the postoperative survival and prognosis of older patients with colon cancer.AIM To evaluate the predictive value of SII combined with serum LF for postoperative survival in older patients with colon cancer.METHODS This prospective study included 62 older patients[range,65-85 years;average age(72.46±6.02)years]with colon cancer who underwent radical surgery at our hospital between January 2023 and September 2024.Colon cancer was confirmed on postoperative pathology.All patients underwent peripheral blood,LF,and tumor marker tests and imaging examinations preoperatively.The ability to predict overall survival(OS)and disease-free survival(DFS)by dynamically monitoring the SII[platelet(PLT)count×neutrophil(NEU)count/lymphocyte(LYM)count]and LF levels in combination with postoperative follow-up data was assessed.SII,LF levels,and postoperative data were analyzed using receiver operating characteristic curves,univariate,and multivariate Cox regression analyses to assess OS and DFS.RESULTS All patients were followed up conventionally postoperatively.There were no significant differences in the patients’baseline data.From 3 months preoperatively until after surgery,the values of routine blood indices(NEUs,LYMs,and PLTs)and SII tended to decrease,but the difference was not statistically significant.The LF level gradually decreased,and there were significant differences at 1 week,1 month and 3 months postoperatively(P<0.05).Liver and kidney functions significantly increased 1 week postoperatively and gradually recovered(P<0.05).The C-reactive protein level significantly increased 1 week postoperatively,whereas the prealbumin level significantly decreased then recovered 3 months postoperatively(P<0.05).The levels of carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)and carbohydrate antigen 19-9(CA19-9)significantly increased 6 months postoperatively,suggesting an increased risk of recurrence(P<0.05).Both the OS and DFS showed significant changes over time.Preoperative SII and LF levels had significant predictive values for OS and DFS.In logistics regression analysis,a SII of 585 or greater and LF level less than 185 ng/mL(determined by maximizing the Youden index)correlated with postoperative survival(P<0.05).Further Cox regression analysis showed that the SII and LF,CA19-9,and CEA levels were independent predictors of postoperative OS(P<0.05),whereas the tumor,node,metastasis stage;LF level;and SII were independent predictors of DFS.CONCLUSION This preliminary analysis suggests that the SII and LF levels may predict the survival and prognosis of older patients with colon cancer postoperatively,when assessing the risk of postoperative recurrence and complications.These two categories of indicators have good prognostic evaluation potential in clinical practice and can provide strong support for the development of individualized treatment strategies.

文摘The results of the 2022-2025 study conducted for the vulnerability assessment of pastures and for the development of improvement measures on the degraded land sections in the arid and semi-arid provinces of the Caucasus under the global climate change conditions are introduced in the current article.The main goal of our scientific work is to study and assess the current ecological and resource state of natural phytocenoses,pastures and hayfields in the arid and semi-arid landscapes under climate change.The paper presents the results of determining the areas and levels of degradation of the natural biogeocenoses and biogeocenoses of the pastures and hayfields in the mountain and highland landscapes.The results were obtained using remote sensing,field and laboratory studies and analyses.The conducted studies have revealed that along 34,174.5 ha pasture and 1342.0 meadows areas of the pastures at the Areni,Yeghegis,Yeghegnadzor and Vayq consolidated administrative territories situated in the arid and semi-arid zones of the Vayots Dzor Region high degradation was recorded in about 6508 hectares of pasture and 407 hectares of meadows areas,which is related to irregular and uncontrolled economic mismanagement of the local population and global climate change.To improve the ecological condition,accessibility and quality of ecosystem services of the pastures,hayfields and natural meadows,comprehensive restoration bioecological and agrotechnical measures have been proposed.They are aimed at improving the air,water and nutrient regimes of soils,at their bioprotection,as well as at the general increase in area and at improving the economic characteristics of the vegetation cover.Such measures on the ecosystem basis are appropriate in the context of enriching the qualitative composition of plants with useful ecological and economic bioecological characteristics,taking into account the characteristics of landscapes,weather and climatic conditions,and agricultural opportunities.
文摘A mathematical model of quantum noise having much effect on the low light imaging system is set up. To simulate the quantum noise, the random numbers obeying noise distribution must be formed and are weighted on the basis of the model created. Three uniform random sequences are built by the linear congruential method, of which two are used to form integer number and decimal fraction parts of the new random sequence respectively and the third to shuffle the new sequence. And then a Gauss sequence is formed out of uniform distribution by a function transforming method. It actualizes the simulation in real time of quantum noise in the low light imaging system, where video flow is extracted in real time, the noise summed up and played back side by side with the original video signs by a simulation software.

文摘To satisfy different service requirements of multiple users in the orthogo nal frequency division multiple access wireless local area network OFDMA-WLAN system downlink transmission a resource allocation algorithm based on fairness and quality of service QoS provisioning is proposed. Different QoS requirements are converted into different rate requirements to calculate the QoSs atisfaction level.The optimization object is revised as a fairness-driven resource optimization function to provide fairness. The complex resource allocation problem is divided into channel allocation and power assignment sub-problems. The sub-problems are solved by the bipartite graph matching and water-filling based method.Compared with other algorithms the proposed algorithm sacrifices less data rate for higher fairnes and QoS satisfaction.The sim ulation results show that the proposed algorithm is capableo fp rovi ding QoS and fairness and performs better in a tradeoff among QoS fairness and data rate.
