tumors.Intraoperative ultrasound and indocyanine green fluorescence navigation are the most commonly used methods at present,but the technical barriers limit their promotion.AIM To evaluate the value of the three-dimensional location approach with silk thread(3D-LAST)in precise resection of liver tumors.METHODS From September 2020 to January 2022,8 patients with liver tumors including hepatocellular carcinoma,intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,hilar cholangiocar-cinoma,and gastric cancer liver metastasis were included in this study.All patients underwent 3D-LAST in precise resection of liver tumors.RESULTS All patients(8/8,100%)underwent the operation successfully without any complications.During the mean follow-up of 8.7 months,all patients survived without tumor recurrence.CONCLUSION In conclusion,the 3D-LAST is a safe and effective new method for liver intraop-erative navigation,which is practical and easy to promote.Core Tip:The aim of this study is to evaluate the value of the three-dimensional location approach with silk thread(3D-LAST)in precise resection of liver tumors.Eight patients with liver tumors including hepatocellular carcinoma,intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,hilar cholangiocarcinoma,and gastric cancer liver metastasis underwent the operation successfully without any complications.During the mean follow-up of 8.7 months,all patients survived without tumor recurrence.In conclusion,the 3D-LAST is a safe and effective new method for liver intraoperative navigation,which is practical and easy to promote.INTRODUCTION Hepatectomy is widely used for the treatment of liver tumors.In recent decades,the concept and practice of hepatectomy have developed from irregular,regular and anatomical to the current precise resection.Necessary assistive technologies have enabled these advances.Intraoperative ultrasound(IOUS)localization and indocyanine green(ICG)fluorescence imaging guidance are two frequently-used approaches for laparoscopic hepatectomy[1,2].IOUS is an invaluable auxiliary means widely accepted in surgery for real-time diagnostic information to determine resection range and navigate the surgical path[3].However,the major limitation of IOUS is the time cost during the procedure for paging the sono-graphers and the difficulty of deciphering two dimensional images[4].ICG is a non-toxic water-soluble fluorophore that reveals fluorescence under the near-infrared spectrum[5].Since liver tissue penetration is limited to 5 to 10 mm,that restricted the visualization of deeper tumors by ICG excitation,thereby interfering with its application in laparoscopic hepatectomy[6].IOUS and ICG navigation require specific technical equipment,making implementation difficult in many centers.And these techniques will significantly increase the operation time.Three-dimensional(3D)visualization involves extracting features and producing volumetric images based on computed tomography(CT)through a computer postprocessing technique.This tool offers a reasonable approach to the clinical decision for the potential to display the complex internal anatomy in an intuitive and stereoscopic manner[7].In the past few decades,applying 3D simulation software for liver volume calculation,virtual simulation surgery,portal hypertension monitor,and surgical navigation has proven to be safe and effective[8].Therefore,we propose a new method to find obvious anatomical markers and calculate the resection range according to 3D positioning before operation.During the operation,the scope of resection was delineated with silk thread,and resection was performed.This is a new practical approach,which we named as 3D location approach with silk thread(3D-LAST).RESULTS During the study period from September 2020 to January 2022,5 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma,1 patient with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,1 patient with hilar cholangiocarcinoma,and 1 patient with gastric cancer liver metastasis were assessed for liver resection.There were 5 males and 3 females.The mean age of these patients was 54.3±10.2 years(34-66 years).Preoperative 3D positioning was conducted and the scope of resection was delineated with a surgical suture successfully performed in all 8 patients without complications.The treatment results of these 8 patients are shown in Table 1.The 90-day operative mortality was zero.Complications worse than Dindo-Clavien IIIa was not observed at a mean follow-up time of 8.7 months(4-16 months),there was no evidence of tumor recurrence or extrahepatic metastasis.At the time of reporting,the patients are all alive and lead normal lives.We take one patient as an example,58-year-old male,who found a liver lesion 10 months after gastric cancer surgery.Enhanced CT showed that the lesion was located in the liver S5,about 1.5 cm in diameter,and considered metastatic lesions.We performed 3D-LAST guided hepatectomy on this patient(Figure 1).Other representative 3D-LAST surgical procedures are shown in Figure 2.展开更多

Method: Ninety cases were randomized into thread-embedding group, western medicine group and embedding+western medicine group (allied-therapy group), 30 cases in each one. In thread embedding group, Yingxiang (迎香 LI 20) and Feishu (肺俞 BL 13) were selected for thread embedding, once a week, totally 4 treatments were required. In western medicine group, certirizine tablet 10 mg in combination with flixonase sprayer was applied once per day, continuously for 30 days in treatment. In allied-therapy group, both of the above methods were adopted continuously for 30 days in treatment. The therapeutic effects were in statistics at the end of treatment and 1 year later. Results: At the end of treatment, in thread-embedding group, 21 cases were remarkably effective, 3 cases effective and 6 cases no effect. In western medicine group, 20 cases were remarkably effective, 3 cases effective and 7 cases no effect. In allied-therapy group, 23 cases were remarkably effective, 2 cases effective and 5 cases no effect. It was shown in statistics that there was no significant difference in therapeutic effects among three groups ( P>0.05 ). But one year after the end of treatment, it was indicated that in thread-embedding group, 3 cases were remarkably effective, 10 cases effective and 17 cases no effect; in western medicine group, 2 cases were remarkably effective, 9 cases effective and 19 cases no effect; in allied-therapy group, 7 cases were remarkably effective, 11 cases effective and 12 cases no effect. The significant difference in the therapeutic effects had not been presented in the comparison between thread-embedding group and western medicine group (P>0.05), but that had been presented between allied-therapy group with either of the groups with single therapy applied (P<0.05). Conclusion: Quite good recent therapeutic effect of either acupoint-thread embedding or western medicine (certirizine+flixonase) was achieved on perennial allergic rhinitis. The remote therapeutic effect of allied therapy was more advantageous than that of single application of either thread embedding or western medicine.展开更多
文摘Thread-embedding materials buried into acupuncture points to produce a long-time stimulation is a method which has been widely applied in the acupuncture and moxibustion therapies for diseases treating and they should have excellent properties of good biocompatibility,biodegradability and moderate rigidity.Polyactic acid(PLA) as the thread-embedding material had some shortcomings such as poor hydrophilicity and slowly biodegradable speed.In this paper,PLA thread-embedding material was modified by chitosan coating which could improve rigidity,hydrophilicity and moisture absorption and thus produce better stimulation effect.The variation tendency of diameter,mass,hydrophilicity,and initial modulus of the sample under the change of chitosan coating concentration,coating time and coating times were studied respectively.The results showed that the hydrophilicity,mass,and initial modulus after coating rose in a certain range when the coating time,coating times and coating concentration increased,while the changing of coating had little impact on fiber diameter.

indocyanine green fluorescence navigation are the most commonly used methods at present,but the technical barriers limit their promotion.AIM To evaluate the value of the three-dimensional location approach with silk thread(3D-LAST)in precise resection of liver tumors.METHODS From September 2020 to January 2022,8 patients with liver tumors including hepatocellular carcinoma,intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,hilar cholangiocar-cinoma,and gastric cancer liver metastasis were included in this study.All patients underwent 3D-LAST in precise resection of liver tumors.RESULTS All patients(8/8,100%)underwent the operation successfully without any complications.During the mean follow-up of 8.7 months,all patients survived without tumor recurrence.CONCLUSION In conclusion,the 3D-LAST is a safe and effective new method for liver intraop-erative navigation,which is practical and easy to promote.Core Tip:The aim of this study is to evaluate the value of the three-dimensional location approach with silk thread(3D-LAST)in precise resection of liver tumors.Eight patients with liver tumors including hepatocellular carcinoma,intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,hilar cholangiocarcinoma,and gastric cancer liver metastasis underwent the operation successfully without any complications.During the mean follow-up of 8.7 months,all patients survived without tumor recurrence.In conclusion,the 3D-LAST is a safe and effective new method for liver intraoperative navigation,which is practical and easy to promote.INTRODUCTION Hepatectomy is widely used for the treatment of liver tumors.In recent decades,the concept and practice of hepatectomy have developed from irregular,regular and anatomical to the current precise resection.Necessary assistive technologies have enabled these advances.Intraoperative ultrasound(IOUS)localization and indocyanine green(ICG)fluorescence imaging guidance are two frequently-used approaches for laparoscopic hepatectomy[1,2].IOUS is an invaluable auxiliary means widely accepted in surgery for real-time diagnostic information to determine resection range and navigate the surgical path[3].However,the major limitation of IOUS is the time cost during the procedure for paging the sono-graphers and the difficulty of deciphering two dimensional images[4].ICG is a non-toxic water-soluble fluorophore that reveals fluorescence under the near-infrared spectrum[5].Since liver tissue penetration is limited to 5 to 10 mm,that restricted the visualization of deeper tumors by ICG excitation,thereby interfering with its application in laparoscopic hepatectomy[6].IOUS and ICG navigation require specific technical equipment,making implementation difficult in many centers.And these techniques will significantly increase the operation time.Three-dimensional(3D)visualization involves extracting features and producing volumetric images based on computed tomography(CT)through a computer postprocessing technique.This tool offers a reasonable approach to the clinical decision for the potential to display the complex internal anatomy in an intuitive and stereoscopic manner[7].In the past few decades,applying 3D simulation software for liver volume calculation,virtual simulation surgery,portal hypertension monitor,and surgical navigation has proven to be safe and effective[8].Therefore,we propose a new method to find obvious anatomical markers and calculate the resection range according to 3D positioning before operation.During the operation,the scope of resection was delineated with silk thread,and resection was performed.This is a new practical approach,which we named as 3D location approach with silk thread(3D-LAST).RESULTS During the study period from September 2020 to January 2022,5 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma,1 patient with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,1 patient with hilar cholangiocarcinoma,and 1 patient with gastric cancer liver metastasis were assessed for liver resection.There were 5 males and 3 females.The mean age of these patients was 54.3±10.2 years(34-66 years).Preoperative 3D positioning was conducted and the scope of resection was delineated with a surgical suture successfully performed in all 8 patients without complications.The treatment results of these 8 patients are shown in Table 1.The 90-day operative mortality was zero.Complications worse than Dindo-Clavien IIIa was not observed at a mean follow-up time of 8.7 months(4-16 months),there was no evidence of tumor recurrence or extrahepatic metastasis.At the time of reporting,the patients are all alive and lead normal lives.We take one patient as an example,58-year-old male,who found a liver lesion 10 months after gastric cancer surgery.Enhanced CT showed that the lesion was located in the liver S5,about 1.5 cm in diameter,and considered metastatic lesions.We performed 3D-LAST guided hepatectomy on this patient(Figure 1).Other representative 3D-LAST surgical procedures are shown in Figure 2.
文摘In petroleum extraction,the sealing surfaces of bolted joints are susceptible to damage due to the high-temperature and high-pressure conditions in wellbores.This damage adversely affects sealing performance,consequently leading to the failure and damage of threaded connections.In severe cases,it can result in considerable economic losses and trigger safety accidents.The sealing performance of special bolted joints holds crucial importance for production efficiency,output,equipment lifespan,and cost control.Enhancing the sealing perfor-mance of threaded connections can have a positive impact on industrial production and environmental protection.The existing research on American Petroleum Institute threaded joints has been thorough and has obtained a series of excellent results.However,the research on the sealing damage mechanism of threaded connections under complex well conditions lacks sufficient depth and that on new sealing technology is scarce.This study proposes a half-size evaluation test to address the abovementioned problem.Based on this test,an investigation into the sealing performance of threaded connections under high-temperature,cyclic loading,and high-temperature creep conditions is conducted.This study uses a combined approach of finite element methods and experiments to investigate the impact of different makeup torques on the sealing performance of premium threaded connections(PTCs).The results of the half-size evaluation test indicate that temperature notably influences the sealing performance of threaded connections.The continuous action of high temperatures causes contact pressure and sealing performance to decrease,and sealing contact pressure increases after cooling.Finite element and test results show that for a certain joint A,the greater the torque,the higher the critical sealing pressure of the thread,and the better the sealing performance.The research on the sealing damage mechanism of PTCs provides a scientific basis and theoretical guidance for the further optimization and development of PTCs.

文摘Digital watermarking must balance imperceptibility,robustness,complexity,and security.To address the challenge of computational efficiency in trellis-based informed embedding,we propose a modified watermarking framework that integrates fuzzy c-means(FCM)clustering into the generation off block codewords for labeling trellis arcs.The system incorporates a parallel trellis structure,controllable embedding parameters,and a novel informed embedding algorithm with reduced complexity.Two types of embedding schemes—memoryless and memory-based—are designed to flexibly trade-off between imperceptibility and robustness.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms existing approaches in bit error rate(BER)and computational complexity under various attacks,including additive noise,filtering,JPEG compression,cropping,and rotation.The integration of FCM enhances robustness by increasing the codeword distance,while preserving perceptual quality.Overall,the proposed framework is suitable for real-time and secure watermarking applications.

文摘Tibetan medical named entity recognition(Tibetan MNER)involves extracting specific types of medical entities from unstructured Tibetan medical texts.Tibetan MNER provide important data support for the work related to Tibetan medicine.However,existing Tibetan MNER methods often struggle to comprehensively capture multi-level semantic information,failing to sufficiently extract multi-granularity features and effectively filter out irrelevant information,which ultimately impacts the accuracy of entity recognition.This paper proposes an improved embedding representation method called syllable-word-sentence embedding.By leveraging features at different granularities and using un-scaled dot-product attention to focus on key features for feature fusion,the syllable-word-sentence embedding is integrated into the transformer,enhancing the specificity and diversity of feature representations.The model leverages multi-level and multi-granularity semantic information,thereby improving the performance of Tibetan MNER.We evaluate our proposed model on datasets from various domains.The results indicate that the model effectively identified three types of entities in the Tibetan news dataset we constructed,achieving an F1 score of 93.59%,which represents an improvement of 1.24%compared to the vanilla FLAT.Additionally,results from the Tibetan medical dataset we developed show that it is effective in identifying five kinds of medical entities,with an F1 score of 71.39%,which is a 1.34%improvement over the vanilla FLAT.
文摘A complete examination of Large Language Models’strengths,problems,and applications is needed due to their rising use across disciplines.Current studies frequently focus on single-use situations and lack a comprehensive understanding of LLM architectural performance,strengths,and weaknesses.This gap precludes finding the appropriate models for task-specific applications and limits awareness of emerging LLM optimization and deployment strategies.In this research,50 studies on 25+LLMs,including GPT-3,GPT-4,Claude 3.5,DeepKet,and hybrid multimodal frameworks like ContextDET and GeoRSCLIP,are thoroughly reviewed.We propose LLM application taxonomy by grouping techniques by task focus—healthcare,chemistry,sentiment analysis,agent-based simulations,and multimodal integration.Advanced methods like parameter-efficient tuning(LoRA),quantumenhanced embeddings(DeepKet),retrieval-augmented generation(RAG),and safety-focused models(GalaxyGPT)are evaluated for dataset requirements,computational efficiency,and performance measures.Frameworks for ethical issues,data limited hallucinations,and KDGI-enhanced fine-tuning like Woodpecker’s post-remedy corrections are highlighted.The investigation’s scope,mad,and methods are described,but the primary results are not.The work reveals that domain-specialized fine-tuned LLMs employing RAG and quantum-enhanced embeddings performbetter for context-heavy applications.In medical text normalization,ChatGPT-4 outperforms previous models,while two multimodal frameworks,GeoRSCLIP,increase remote sensing.Parameter-efficient tuning technologies like LoRA have minimal computing cost and similar performance,demonstrating the necessity for adaptive models in multiple domains.To discover the optimum domain-specific models,explain domain-specific fine-tuning,and present quantum andmultimodal LLMs to address scalability and cross-domain issues.The framework helps academics and practitioners identify,adapt,and innovate LLMs for different purposes.This work advances the field of efficient,interpretable,and ethical LLM application research.

文摘Multimodal sentiment analysis aims to understand emotions from text,speech,and video data.However,current methods often overlook the dominant role of text and suffer from feature loss during integration.Given the varying importance of each modality across different contexts,a central and pressing challenge in multimodal sentiment analysis lies in maximizing the use of rich intra-modal features while minimizing information loss during the fusion process.In response to these critical limitations,we propose a novel framework that integrates spatial position encoding and fusion embedding modules to address these issues.In our model,text is treated as the core modality,while speech and video features are selectively incorporated through a unique position-aware fusion process.The spatial position encoding strategy preserves the internal structural information of speech and visual modalities,enabling the model to capture localized intra-modal dependencies that are often overlooked.This design enhances the richness and discriminative power of the fused representation,enabling more accurate and context-aware sentiment prediction.Finally,we conduct comprehensive evaluations on two widely recognized standard datasets in the field—CMU-MOSI and CMU-MOSEI to validate the performance of the proposed model.The experimental results demonstrate that our model exhibits good performance and effectiveness for sentiment analysis tasks.

文摘Named Entity Recognition(NER)is vital in natural language processing for the analysis of news texts,as it accurately identifies entities such as locations,persons,and organizations,which is crucial for applications like news summarization and event tracking.However,NER in the news domain faces challenges due to insufficient annotated data,complex entity structures,and strong context dependencies.To address these issues,we propose a new Chinesenamed entity recognition method that integrates transfer learning with word embeddings.Our approach leverages the ERNIE pre-trained model for transfer learning and obtaining general language representations and incorporates the Soft-lexicon word embedding technique to handle varied entity structures.This dual-strategy enhances the model’s understanding of context and boosts its ability to process complex texts.Experimental results show that our method achieves an F1 score of 94.72% on a news dataset,surpassing baseline methods by 3%–4%,thereby confirming its effectiveness for Chinese-named entity recognition in the news domain.

文摘Network virtualization is the development trend and inevitable requirement of hybrid wireless sensor networks(HWSNs).Low mapping efficiency and service interruption caused by mobility seriously affect the reliability of sensing tasks and ultimately affect the long-term revenue of the infrastructure providers.In response to these problems,this paper proposes an efficient virtual network embedding algorithm with a reliable service guarantee.Based on the topological attributes of nodes,a method for evaluating the physical network resource importance degree is proposed,and the nodes with rich resources are selected to improve embedding efficiency.Then,a method for evaluating the physical network reliability degree is proposed to predict the probability of mobile sensors providing uninterrupted services.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm improves the acceptance rate of virtual sensor networks(VSN)embedding requests and the long-term revenue of the infrastructure providers.

文摘In the domain of knowledge graph embedding,conventional approaches typically transform entities and relations into continuous vector spaces.However,parameter efficiency becomes increasingly crucial when dealing with large-scale knowledge graphs that contain vast numbers of entities and relations.In particular,resource-intensive embeddings often lead to increased computational costs,and may limit scalability and adaptability in practical environ-ments,such as in low-resource settings or real-world applications.This paper explores an approach to knowledge graph representation learning that leverages small,reserved entities and relation sets for parameter-efficient embedding.We introduce a hierarchical attention network designed to refine and maximize the representational quality of embeddings by selectively focusing on these reserved sets,thereby reducing model complexity.Empirical assessments validate that our model achieves high performance on the benchmark dataset with fewer parameters and smaller embedding dimensions.The ablation studies further highlight the impact and contribution of each component in the proposed hierarchical attention structure.
文摘The increasing fluency of advanced language models,such as GPT-3.5,GPT-4,and the recently introduced DeepSeek,challenges the ability to distinguish between human-authored and AI-generated academic writing.This situation is raising significant concerns regarding the integrity and authenticity of academic work.In light of the above,the current research evaluates the effectiveness of Bidirectional Long Short-TermMemory(BiLSTM)networks enhanced with pre-trained GloVe(Global Vectors for Word Representation)embeddings to detect AIgenerated scientific Abstracts drawn from the AI-GA(Artificial Intelligence Generated Abstracts)dataset.Two core BiLSTM variants were assessed:a single-layer approach and a dual-layer design,each tested under static or adaptive embeddings.The single-layer model achieved nearly 97%accuracy with trainable GloVe,occasionally surpassing the deeper model.Despite these gains,neither configuration fully matched the 98.7%benchmark set by an earlier LSTMWord2Vec pipeline.Some runs were over-fitted when embeddings were fine-tuned,whereas static embeddings offered a slightly lower yet stable accuracy of around 96%.This lingering gap reinforces a key ethical and procedural concern:relying solely on automated tools,such as Turnitin’s AI-detection features,to penalize individuals’risks and unjust outcomes.Misclassifications,whether legitimate work is misread as AI-generated or engineered text,evade detection,demonstrating that these classifiers should not stand as the sole arbiters of authenticity.Amore comprehensive approach is warranted,one which weaves model outputs into a systematic process supported by expert judgment and institutional guidelines designed to protect originality.
文摘Objective:To explore the effects of acupoint catgut embedding combined with auricular point pressing with beans on symptom management self-efficacy and quality of life in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH)of liver depression and spleen deficiency type.Methods:Sixty patients with NASH of liver depression and spleen deficiency type admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to December 2023 were selected and divided into an acupoint catgut embedding group(n=30)and a combined group(n=30)using the envelope lottery method.The acupoint catgut embedding group received acupoint catgut embedding intervention,while the combined group received auricular point pressing with beans on the basis of the acupoint catgut embedding group.The two groups were compared in terms of TCM syndrome scores,symptom management self-efficacy[Chronic Disease Self-Efficacy Scale(CDSES)],and quality of life[Chronic Liver Disease Questionnaire(CLDQ)].Results:After intervention,the combined group had lower TCM syndrome scores for both primary and secondary symptoms compared to the acupoint catgut embedding group(P<0.05).The combined group also had higher scores in all dimensions and total score of the CDSES compared to the acupoint catgut embedding group(P<0.05).Similarly,the combined group had higher scores in all dimensions and total score of the CLDQ compared to the acupoint catgut embedding group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Acupoint catgut embedding combined with auricular point pressing with beans can effectively improve TCM symptoms,enhance symptom management self-efficacy,and improve quality of life in patients with NASH of liver depression and spleen deficiency type.

文摘In shale gas reservoir stimulation,proppants are essential for sustaining fracture conductivity.However,increasing closing stress causes proppants to embed into the rock matrix,leading to a progressive decline in fracture permeability and conductivity.Furthermore,rock creep contributes to long-term reductions in fracture performance.To elucidate the combined effects of proppant embedding and rock creep on sustained conductivity,this study conducted controlled experiments examining conductivity decay in propped fractures under varying closing stresses,explicitly accounting for both mechanisms.An embedded discrete fracture model was developed to simulate reservoir production under different conductivity decay scenarios,while evaluating the influence of proppant parameters on fracture performance.The results demonstrate that fracture conductivity diminishes rapidly with increasing stress,yet at 50 MPa,the decline becomes less pronounced.Simulated production profiles show strong agreement with actual gas well data,confirming the model’s accuracy and predictive capability.These findings suggest that employing a high proppant concentration with smaller particle size(5 kg/m^(2),70/140 mesh)is effective for maintaining long-term fracture conductivity and enhancing shale gas recovery.This study provides a rigorous framework for optimizing proppant selection and designing stimulation strategies that maximize reservoir performance over time.

文摘Constructing an in vitro vascularized liver tissue model that closely simulates the human liver is crucial for promoting cell proliferation,mimicking physiological heterogeneous structures,and recreating the cellular microenvironment.However,the layer-by-layer printing method is significantly constrained by the rheological properties of the bioink,making it challenging to form complex three-dimensional vascular structures in low-viscosity soft materials.To overcome this limitation,we developed a cross-linkable biphasic embedding medium by mixing low-viscosity biomaterials with gelatin microgel.This medium possesses yield stress and self-healing properties,facilitating efficient and continuous three-dimensional shaping of sacrificial ink within it.By adjusting the printing speed,we controlled the filament diameter,achieving a range from 250μm to 1000μm,and ensuring precise control over ink deposition locations and filament shapes.Using the in situ endothelialization method,we constructed complex vascular structures and ensured close adhesion between hepatocytes and endothelial cells.In vitro experiments demonstrated that the vascularized liver tissue model exhibited enhanced protein synthesis and metabolic function compared to mixed liver tissue.We also investigated the impact of varying vascular densities on liver tissue function.Transcriptome sequencing revealed that liver tissues with higher vascular density exhibited upregulated gene expression in metabolic and angiogenesis-related pathways.In summary,this method is adaptable to various materials,allowing the rheological properties of the supporting bath and the tissue's porosity to be modified using microgels,thus enabling precise regulation of the liver tissue microenvironment.Additionally,it facilitates the rapid construction of three-dimensional vascular structures within liver tissue.The resulting vascularized liver tissue model exhibits enhanced biological functionality,opening new opportunities for biomedical applications.
文摘In this paper,by constructing the current graph of the complete graph K_(12s+9)and a mapping function,we prove that K_(12s+9)(s is an odd number)has at least 6^(2s)×3^(s+3/2) nonisomorphic orientable quadrangular embeddings,and the orientable genus is(12s+9)(12s+4)/8+1.Every one of the nonisomorphic orientable quadrangular embeddings has at least twenty-four 4-edge-colors,and each color appears around each face of orientable quadrangular embeddings.
文摘Objective: The comparison of the remote and recent therapeutic effects on perennial allergic rhinitis was carried on among single application of acupoint-thread embedding, western medicine (certirizine+flixonase) and allied therapy. Method: Ninety cases were randomized into thread-embedding group, western medicine group and embedding+western medicine group (allied-therapy group), 30 cases in each one. In thread embedding group, Yingxiang (迎香 LI 20) and Feishu (肺俞 BL 13) were selected for thread embedding, once a week, totally 4 treatments were required. In western medicine group, certirizine tablet 10 mg in combination with flixonase sprayer was applied once per day, continuously for 30 days in treatment. In allied-therapy group, both of the above methods were adopted continuously for 30 days in treatment. The therapeutic effects were in statistics at the end of treatment and 1 year later. Results: At the end of treatment, in thread-embedding group, 21 cases were remarkably effective, 3 cases effective and 6 cases no effect. In western medicine group, 20 cases were remarkably effective, 3 cases effective and 7 cases no effect. In allied-therapy group, 23 cases were remarkably effective, 2 cases effective and 5 cases no effect. It was shown in statistics that there was no significant difference in therapeutic effects among three groups ( P>0.05 ). But one year after the end of treatment, it was indicated that in thread-embedding group, 3 cases were remarkably effective, 10 cases effective and 17 cases no effect; in western medicine group, 2 cases were remarkably effective, 9 cases effective and 19 cases no effect; in allied-therapy group, 7 cases were remarkably effective, 11 cases effective and 12 cases no effect. The significant difference in the therapeutic effects had not been presented in the comparison between thread-embedding group and western medicine group (P>0.05), but that had been presented between allied-therapy group with either of the groups with single therapy applied (P<0.05). Conclusion: Quite good recent therapeutic effect of either acupoint-thread embedding or western medicine (certirizine+flixonase) was achieved on perennial allergic rhinitis. The remote therapeutic effect of allied therapy was more advantageous than that of single application of either thread embedding or western medicine.
