Nonetheless, the versatility of administration methods may influence the outcomes.Methods: Web of Science, Scopus, SPORTDiscus and Pub Med/MEDLINE were searched to identify studies assessing the effect of NH administered by face mask or chamber/tent equipment on maximal oxygen uptake( VO2max) after a training period. An overall meta-analysis and sub-analysis of total program session volume(low, moderate, high), participants' training level(trained, active, sedentary), and the severity of hypoxia(moderate, severe) were conducted to explore the effects of the NH-administration system.Results: Eighteen studies were included. Compared with normoxia, NH showed a moderate global improvement in VO2max(standardized mean difference [SMD] = 0.74;p = 0.06), favoring the chamber/tent(SMD = 1.30;p< 0.01) over the face mask. Sub-analysis showed a very large effect in support of the hypoxic chamber/tent among sedentary individuals and training programs with a high volume of sessions. Severe hypoxia did not yield conclusive findings in VO2max improvements, although the chamber/tent proved more effective(SMD = 1.42;p< 0.01) than the face mask under moderate hypoxia.Conclusions: Chambers/tents may slightly accentuate the benefit of NH on aerobic performance, particularly in participants with limited training experience following a high volume of sessions under moderate hypoxia.However, the variability of sub-analysis factors(session volume, participants' training level, and methodological approaches) between studies using each type of hypoxia-generating equipment may influence this result.展开更多

文摘Endowed with opportunities from both land and ocean,coastal areas attract expanding human populations and economic activities.At the same time,they face growing societal and environmental pressures from both the above river catchments and the bordering sea due to climate change,ecosystem degradation,and expansion of built-up areas.Despite the accumulation of human population,economic activities,and environmental impacts,we lack social-ecological systems analysis on water-related risks to world’s coastal human population.To address this research gap,we analyze the spatial extent of six globally important water stressors to people within the world’s coastal zone(100 km from the coastal line)and classify this zone globally into 12 groups by distance from the coastline and elevation from the mean sea level.Adopting the approaches of the UN Sendai Framework and IPCC,we produce risk maps from the stressor maps by multiplying them with population exposure and vulnerability.For most risks,geographical hotspots are the Chinese coast,Bay of Bengal,Gujarat,and the Island of Java.The analysis reveals fundamental differences between water stressors and related risks,often mixed in scholarly literature.Both manifest specific geographic patterns and latitudinal profiles.Our study highlights the importance of high-resolution spatial analysis of vulnerability,exposure,and risks posed by water related stressors in the world’s coastal zone,in a manner prompted by key policy bodies to promote policy design and shared responsibility for managing stress-prone areas.

文摘Purpose: Normobaric hypoxia(NH) is a frequent strategy for training under hypoxic conditions that can be administered through different equipment, including face masks or hypoxic chambers/tents. Nonetheless, the versatility of administration methods may influence the outcomes.Methods: Web of Science, Scopus, SPORTDiscus and Pub Med/MEDLINE were searched to identify studies assessing the effect of NH administered by face mask or chamber/tent equipment on maximal oxygen uptake( VO2max) after a training period. An overall meta-analysis and sub-analysis of total program session volume(low, moderate, high), participants' training level(trained, active, sedentary), and the severity of hypoxia(moderate, severe) were conducted to explore the effects of the NH-administration system.Results: Eighteen studies were included. Compared with normoxia, NH showed a moderate global improvement in VO2max(standardized mean difference [SMD] = 0.74;p = 0.06), favoring the chamber/tent(SMD = 1.30;p< 0.01) over the face mask. Sub-analysis showed a very large effect in support of the hypoxic chamber/tent among sedentary individuals and training programs with a high volume of sessions. Severe hypoxia did not yield conclusive findings in VO2max improvements, although the chamber/tent proved more effective(SMD = 1.42;p< 0.01) than the face mask under moderate hypoxia.Conclusions: Chambers/tents may slightly accentuate the benefit of NH on aerobic performance, particularly in participants with limited training experience following a high volume of sessions under moderate hypoxia.However, the variability of sub-analysis factors(session volume, participants' training level, and methodological approaches) between studies using each type of hypoxia-generating equipment may influence this result.

文摘A novel siphon-based divide-and-conquer(SbDaC)policy is presented in this paper for the synthesis of Petri net(PN)based liveness-enforcing supervisors(LES)for flexible manufacturing systems(FMS)prone to deadlocks or livelocks.The proposed method takes an uncontrolled and bounded PN model(UPNM)of the FMS.Firstly,the reduced PNM(RPNM)is obtained from the UPNM by using PN reduction rules to reduce the computation burden.Then,the set of strict minimal siphons(SMSs)of the RPNM is computed.Next,the complementary set of SMSs is computed from the set of SMSs.By the union of these two sets,the superset of SMSs is computed.Finally,the set of subnets of the RPNM is obtained by applying the PN reduction rules to the superset of SMSs.All these subnets suffer from deadlocks.These subnets are then ordered from the smallest one to the largest one based on a criterion.To enforce liveness on these subnets,a set of control places(CPs)is computed starting from the smallest subnet to the largest one.Once all subnets are live,this process provides the LES,consisting of a set of CPs to be used for the UPNM.The live controlled PN model(CPNM)is constructed by merging the LES with the UPNM.The SbDaC policy is applicable to all classes of PNs related to FMS prone to deadlocks or livelocks.Several FMS examples are considered from the literature to highlight the applicability of the SbDaC policy.In particular,three examples are utilized to emphasize the importance,applicability and effectiveness of the SbDaC policy to realistic FMS with very large state spaces.

文摘Malignant pleural effusion(MPE) is a serious disease caused by malignant tumors with high morbidity and mortality.Chemotherapy,immunotherapy,and antiangiogenic therapy are common treatments for MPE at present.However,traditional chemotherapeutic drugs have many side effects and can easily lead to drug resistance in patients.The complex tumor microenvironment(TME) of MPE directly reduces the antitumor efficacy of immunotherapy.Fortunately,drug delivery systems(DDSs) based on biomaterials have the ability to overcome some of the drawbacks of conventional treatments by improving drug stability,increasing the accuracy of tumor cell targeting,reducing toxic side effects,and remodeling TME,ultimately improving drug efficacy.Therefore,the purpose of this review is to provide an overview and discussion of the latest progress in biomaterial-based DDSs for the treatment of MPE.We discuss the application of biomaterials in the treatment of MPE from multiple perspectives,including chemotherapy,immunotherapy,combination therapy,and pleurodesis,where microspheres,cell membrane-derived microparticles(MPs),micelles,nanoparticles,and liposomes,are involved.The application of these biomaterials has been proven to have great potential in the treatment of MPE,providing a new idea for follow-up research.
文摘Earthquakes are highly destructive spatio-temporal phenomena whose analysis is essential for disaster preparedness and risk mitigation.Modern seismological research produces vast volumes of heterogeneous data from seismic networks,satellite observations,and geospatial repositories,creating the need for scalable infrastructures capable of integrating and analyzing such data to support intelligent decision-making.Data warehousing technologies provide a robust foundation for this purpose;however,existing earthquake-oriented data warehouses remain limited,often relying on simplified schemas,domain-specific analytics,or cataloguing efforts.This paper presents the design and implementation of a spatio-temporal data warehouse for seismic activity.The framework integrates spatial and temporal dimensions in a unified schema and introduces a novel array-based approach for managing many-to-many relationships between facts and dimensions without intermediate bridge tables.A comparative evaluation against a conventional bridge-table schema demonstrates that the array-based design improves fact-centric query performance,while the bridge-table schema remains advantageous for dimension-centric queries.To reconcile these trade-offs,a hybrid schema is proposed that retains both representations,ensuring balanced efficiency across heterogeneous workloads.The proposed framework demonstrates how spatio-temporal data warehousing can address schema complexity,improve query performance,and support multidimensional visualization.In doing so,it provides a foundation for integrating seismic analysis into broader big data-driven intelligent decision systems for disaster resilience,risk mitigation,and emergency management.
