Taekwondo emphasizes morality and respect for teachers. It requires practices to love the motherland, love the people, respect opponents and abide by good faith; to emphasis on inner training and spiritual cultivation; to develop noble moral characters like courtesy, patience, self-denial, humility and tolerance. Because taekwondo take footwork as the main means of attack, the atmosphere of competition will be intense and the two sides battle with wits and physical fighting with amazing destructive power and lethality. So practitioner＇ s inner practice and morality is particularly emphasized. Chinese traditional culture plays a vital role among it.展开更多

The research identifies key obstacles to income expansion, including an undiversified industrial structure, insufficient human capital, and a lack of robust social protection. These call for systemic solutions featuring institutional innovation, resource consolidation, and capability enhancement. Building on Zhejiang's experience as a common prosperity demonstration zone, the article constructs an integrated framework centered on four pillars: industrial empowerment, education upgrading, social security reinforcement, and digital coordination. It further offers concrete policy proposals involving the cultivation of localized industries, vocational skill training, enhanced safety nets, and the adoption of digital tools. The study thus offers both theoretical insights and practical paradigms for tackling the challenge of raising incomes in low-income rural areas.展开更多

There is a great need for a prophylactic treatment for colds. Specific antiviral treatments are only effective against one group of viruses and there is a need for a non-specific treatment that can be used against all respiratory viruses. Carrageenan is a general term used to describe a range of sulfated polysaccharides extracted from edible seaweeds. Large polyanionic molecules such as carrageenan have been shown to have antiviral activity against a wide range of viruses in vitro. The strong anionic charge of carrageenan attracts and traps viruses that have positively charged areas on their surface. The trapped viruses are then unable to infect epithelial cells. Iota-carrageenan exerts its’ antiviral activity by physical means due to its high anionic charge and it does not have any pharmacological properties and therefore does not have any toxicology or known side effects from treatment. Iota-carrageenan does not have any taste or smell and, when used as a nasal spray, does not have any adverse effects. Iota-carrageenan is an ideal prophylactic treatment for the common cold and is safe for use in children. Treatment of common cold with iota-carrageenan has to date been studied in five placebo-controlled clinical trials and these trials support both efficacy as a prophylactic treatment for colds and the safety and tolerability of iota-carrageenan.展开更多

文摘The common cold is caused by a large range of respiratory viruses and is the most common disease of mankind. There is a great need for a prophylactic treatment for colds. Specific antiviral treatments are only effective against one group of viruses and there is a need for a non-specific treatment that can be used against all respiratory viruses. Carrageenan is a general term used to describe a range of sulfated polysaccharides extracted from edible seaweeds. Large polyanionic molecules such as carrageenan have been shown to have antiviral activity against a wide range of viruses in vitro. The strong anionic charge of carrageenan attracts and traps viruses that have positively charged areas on their surface. The trapped viruses are then unable to infect epithelial cells.

Iota-carrageenan does not have any taste or smell and, when used as a nasal spray, does not have any adverse effects. Iota-carrageenan is an ideal prophylactic treatment for the common cold and is safe for use in children. Treatment of common cold with iota-carrageenan has to date been studied in five placebo-controlled clinical trials and these trials support both efficacy as a prophylactic treatment for colds and the safety and tolerability of iota-carrageenan.
文摘Ulcerative colitis has baffled researchers since the early 20th century.The pre-vailing explanation attributes the chronic recurring episodes of bloody diarrhea and abdominal pain to some form of immune abnormality,despite the lack of supporting evidence.This highlights the critical need for innovative research directions and methodologies to uncover the cause and develop a cure for this disease.By analyzing existing data from less than a dozen previously published studies,a novel,evidence-based pathogenesis was constructed,implicating colonic epithelial hydrogen peroxide as a causal factor in the development of this disease.This newly identified mechanism informed the creation of a ground-breaking class of therapeutics,known as reducing agents,which have demon-strated remarkable success in resolving colonic inflammation and restoring colonic health in patients with refractory ulcerative colitis.This paper outlines the timeline of these publications and reinterprets the findings within the context of contemporary biomedical science.

文摘Reconfigurable intelligent surface(RIS)is a novel meta-material which can form a smart radio environment by dynamically altering reflection directions of the impinging electromagnetic waves.In the prior literature,the inter-RIS links which also contribute to the performance of the whole system are usually neglected when multiple RISs are deployed.In this paper we investigate a general double-RIS assisted multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO)wireless communication system under spatially correlated non line-of-sight propagation channels,where the cooperation of the double RISs is also considered.The design objective is to maximize the achievable ergodic rate based on full statistical channel state information(CSI).Specifically,we firstly present a closedform asymptotic expression for the achievable ergodic rate by utilizing replica method from statistical physics.Then a full statistical CSI-enabled optimal design is proposed which avoids high pilot training overhead compared to instantaneous CSI-enabled design.To further reduce the signal processing overhead and lower the complexity for practical realization,a common-phase scheme is proposed to design the double RISs.Simulation results show that the derived asymptotic ergodic rate is quite accurate even for small-sized antenna arrays.And the proposed optimization algorithm can achieve substantial gain at the expense of a low overhead and complexity.Furthermore,the cooperative double-RIS assisted MIMO framework is proven to achieve superior ergodic rate performance and high communication reliability under harsh propagation environment.
文摘BACKGROUND Pancreaticobiliary maljunction(PBM)is a rare congenital abnormality in pancreaticobiliary duct development.PBM is commonly found in children,and it often leads to acute pancreatitis and other diseases as a result of pancreaticobiliary reflux.Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy is a common surgical method for the treatment of PBM,but there are several associated complications that may occur after this operation.CASE SUMMARY The patient,a 12-year-old female,was hospitalized nearly 20 times in 2021 for recurrent acute pancreatitis.In 2022,she was diagnosed with PBM and underwent laparoscopic common bile duct resection and Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy in a tertiary hospital.In the first year after surgery,the patient had more than 10 recurrent acute pancreatitis episodes.After undergoing abdominal computed tomography and other examinations,she was diagnosed with“residual bile duct stones and recurrent acute pancreatitis”.On January 30,2024,the patient was admitted to our hospital due to recurrent upper abdominal pain and was cured through endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.CONCLUSION This article reports a case of a child with distal residual common bile duct stones and recurrent acute pancreatitis after Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy for PBM.The patient was cured through endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.
文摘BACKGROUND Common bile duct stones pose a high risk of recurrence or disease progression if not promptly treated.However,there is still no optimal treatment approach.AIM To investigate the clinical efficacy of modified pancreatic duct stent drainage in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)for treating common bile duct stones.METHODS This retrospective study included 175 patients with common bile duct stones treated at Taizhou Fourth People’s Hospital between January 1,2021,and November 30,2023.The patients were divided into three groups-the modified pancreatic duct stent drainage group(59 cases),the nasobiliary drainage group(58 cases),and the standard biliary drainage group(58 cases).Preoperative general clinical data,laboratory indicators,and the visual analog scale(VAS)at two time points(24 hours before and after surgery)were compared,along with postoperative complications across the three groups.RESULTS Serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase,alanine aminotransferase,alkaline phosphatase,gamma-glutamyltransferase,total bilirubin,direct bilirubin,Creactive protein,and amylase were significantly lower in the modified pancreatic duct stent drainage group and the standard biliary drainage group than those in the nasobiliary drainage group(P<0.05).However,no statistically significant differences were observed in white blood cells,hemoglobin,or neutrophil levels among the three groups(P>0.05).The standard biliary drainage group had significantly lower VAS scores[(4.36±1.18)points]than those for the modified pancreatic duct stent drainage group[(4.92±1.68)points](P=0.033),and the nasobiliary drainage group[(5.54±1.24)points](P=0.017).There were no statistically significant differences in complication rates across the three groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSION Compared to standard biliary drainage and nasobiliary drainage,the modified pancreatic duct stent used during ERCP for patients with bile duct stones significantly reduced hepatocyte injury,improved liver function parameters,alleviated inflammation and pain,enhanced patient comfort,and demonstrated superior safety.
文摘Flyback converters in consumer and commercial products must adhere to strict regulatory standards for conducted and radiated electromagnetic interference(EMI).Managing EMI has become increasingly complex in mod-ern power electronics,particularly with the integration of high-speed wide bandgap(WBG)devices into compact sys-tem layouts.A review of established modeling techniques and mitigation strategies for conducted EMI is presented,fo-cusing on differential mode(DM)and common mode(CM)noise,alongside radiated EMI in flyback converters.The discussion encompasses solutions at both component-level design and converter system optimization.
