文摘Transforming growth factor-beta 1(TGF-β1)has been extensively studied for its pleiotropic effects on central nervous system diseases.The neuroprotective or neurotoxic effects of TGF-β1 in specific brain areas may depend on the pathological process and cell types involved.Voltage-gated sodium channels(VGSCs)are essential ion channels for the generation of action potentials in neurons,and are involved in various neuroexcitation-related diseases.However,the effects of TGF-β1 on the functional properties of VGSCs and firing properties in cortical neurons remain unclear.In this study,we investigated the effects of TGF-β1 on VGSC function and firing properties in primary cortical neurons from mice.We found that TGF-β1 increased VGSC current density in a dose-and time-dependent manner,which was attributable to the upregulation of Nav1.3 expression.Increased VGSC current density and Nav1.3 expression were significantly abolished by preincubation with inhibitors of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase(PD98059),p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase(SB203580),and Jun NH2-terminal kinase 1/2 inhibitor(SP600125).Interestingly,TGF-β1 significantly increased the firing threshold of action potentials but did not change their firing rate in cortical neurons.These findings suggest that TGF-β1 can increase Nav1.3 expression through activation of the ERK1/2-JNK-MAPK pathway,which leads to a decrease in the firing threshold of action potentials in cortical neurons under pathological conditions.Thus,this contributes to the occurrence and progression of neuroexcitatory-related diseases of the central nervous system.

文摘Influenced by complex external factors,the displacement-time curve of reservoir landslides demonstrates both short-term and long-term diversity and dynamic complexity.It is difficult for existing methods,including Regression models and Neural network models,to perform multi-characteristic coupled displacement prediction because they fail to consider landslide creep characteristics.This paper integrates the creep characteristics of landslides with non-linear intelligent algorithms and proposes a dynamic intelligent landslide displacement prediction method based on a combination of the Biological Growth model(BG),Convolutional Neural Network(CNN),and Long ShortTerm Memory Network(LSTM).This prediction approach improves three different biological growth models,thereby effectively extracting landslide creep characteristic parameters.Simultaneously,it integrates external factors(rainfall and reservoir water level)to construct an internal and external comprehensive dataset for data augmentation,which is input into the improved CNN-LSTM model.Thereafter,harnessing the robust feature extraction capabilities and spatial translation invariance of CNN,the model autonomously captures short-term local fluctuation characteristics of landslide displacement,and combines LSTM's efficient handling of long-term nonlinear temporal data to improve prediction performance.An evaluation of the Liangshuijing landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area indicates that BG-CNN-LSTM exhibits high prediction accuracy,excellent generalization capabilities when dealing with various types of landslides.The research provides an innovative approach to achieving the whole-process,realtime,high-precision displacement predictions for multicharacteristic coupled landslides.

文摘The growth trajectory of hailstones within clouds has remained elusive due to the inability to trace them directly,impeding the comprehension of their underlying growth mechanisms.This study investigated hailstone vertical growth trajectories by detecting the stable isotope signatures(2H and 18O compositions)of different shells in 27 hailstones from 9hailstorms,which allowed us to capture the ambient temperature during hailstone growth.The vertical growth trajectories were obtained by comparing the isotopic compositions of water condensate in clouds,derived from the Adiabatic Model,with those measured in hailstones.Although hailstone growth was primarily observed in the–10°C to–30°C temperature layer,the embryo formation height and subsequent growth trajectories significantly varied among hailstones.Embryos formed over a wide range of temperatures(–8.7°C to–33.4°C);four originated at temperatures above–15°C and 16originated at temperatures below–20°C,suggesting ice nuclei composed of bioproteins and mineral dust,respectively.Among the 27 measured hailstones,3 exhibited minimal vertical movement,16 exhibited a monotonic rise or fall,and the remaining 8 exhibited alternating up-down trajectories;only one experienced“recycling”during up-down drifting.Trajectory analysis revealed that similar-sized hailstones from a single storm tended to form at similar heights,whereas those larger than 25 mm in diameter exhibited at least one period of upward growth.Vertical trajectories derived from isotopic analysis were corroborated by radar hydrometeor observations.

文摘Magnesium matrix composites with both high strength and ductility have been achieved by introducing pure Ti particles.However,the properties of the surfaces of the composites need to be improved by surface technology,such as micro-arc oxidation(MAO).In this study,we investigated the influence of the Ti-reinforcement phase on coating growth and evolution by subjecting both AZ91 alloy and AZ91/Ti composite to MAO treatment using silicate-based and phosphate-based electrolytes.Results revealed that the Ti-reinforcement phase influenced the MAO process,altering discharge behavior,and leading to a decreased cell voltage.The vigorous discharge of the Ti-reinforcement phase induced the formation of coating discharge channels,concurrently dissolving and oxidizing Ti-reinforcement to produce a composite ceramic coating with TiO2.The MAO coating on the AZ91/Ti composite exhibited a dark blue macromorphology and distinctive local micromorphological anomalies.In silicate electrolyte,a“volcano-like”localized morphology centered on the discharge channel emerged.In contrast,treatment in phosphate-based electrolyte resulted in a coating morphology similar to typical porous ceramic coatings,with visible radial discharge micropores at the reinforcement phase location.Compared to the AZ91 alloy,the coating on the AZ91/Ti composite exhibited lower thickness and higher porosity.MAO treatment reduced the self-corrosion current density of the AZ91/Ti surface by two orders of magnitude.The silicate coating demonstrated better corrosion resistance than the phosphate coating,attributed to its lower porosity.The formation mechanism of MAO coatings on AZ91/Ti composites in phosphate-based and silicate-based electrolytes was proposed.

文摘Conventional rolled Mg-Al alloy sheets typically exhibit strong basal textures that remain and may even strengthen after recrystallization annealing due to the preferential growth of basal-oriented grains,resulting in poor formability at room temperature.Therefore,the knowledge of recrystallization and grain growth is critical for modifying textures of Mg-Al alloy sheets.The static recrystallization and texture evolution in a cold-rolled dilute Mg-1Al(wt.%)alloy during various annealed temperatures ranging from 300℃ to 450℃,have been investigated using the quasi in-situ electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD)method.The as-rolled Mg-1Al alloy shows a dominant basal texture,which weakens and broadens in the rolling direction(RD)during the subsequent annealing,accompanied by the formation of{1010}texture component.Particularly,the {1010} texture component is more pronounced after annealing at high temperatures.The quasi in-situ EBSD results show that recrystallized grains are mainly induced by shear bands,which exhibit a wide spectrum of orientations with c-axis tilt angles ranging 20°-45°from the normal direction(ND).Orientations of shear band-induced recrystallized grains are retained during the entire recrystallization process,resulting in a reduction in the texture intensity.Moreover,recrystallized grains belonging to the {1010}texture component grow preferentially compared to those with other orientations,which is attributed to low energy grain boundaries,especially grain boundaries with∼30°misorientation angles.Furthermore,the high temperature annealing facilitates the rapid growth of grain boundaries having a 30°misorientation angle,leading to the occurrence of distinct {1010} texture after annealing at 450℃ for 1 h.The results provide insights for texture modification of rare earth-free low-alloyed Mg alloys by controlling annealing parameters.

文摘A custom micro-arc oxidation(MAO)apparatus is employed to produce coatings under optimized constant voltage–current two-step power supply mode.Various analytical techniques,including scanning electron microscopy,confocal laser microscopy,X-ray diffraction,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,transmission electron microscopy,and electrochemical analysis,are employed to characterize MAO coatings at different stages of preparation.MAO has MgO,hydroxyapatite,Ca_(3)(PO_(4))_(2),and Mg2SiO4 phases.Its microstructure of the coating is characterized by"multiple breakdowns,pores within pores",and"repaired blind pores".The porosity and the uniformity of MAO coating first declines in the constant voltage mode,then augments while the discharge phenomenon takes place,and finally decreases in the repair stage.These analyses reveal a four-stage growth pattern for MAO coatings:anodic oxidation stage,micro-arc oxidation stage,breakdown stage,and repairing stage.During anodic oxidation and MAO stages,inward growth prevails,while the breakdown stage sees outward and accelerated growth.Simultaneous inward and outward growth in the repair stage results in a denser,more uniform coating with increased thickness and improved corrosion resistance.

文摘The goethite residue generated from zinc hydrometallurgy is classified as hazardous solid waste,produced in large quantities,and results in significant zinc loss.The study was conducted on removing iron from FeSO_(4)-ZnSO_(4) solution,employing seed-induced nucleation methods.Analysis of the iron removal rate,residue structure,morphology,and elemental composition involved ICP,XRD,FT-IR,and SEM.The existing state of zinc was investigated by combining step-by-step dissolution using hydrochloric acid.Concurrently,iron removal tests were extended to industrial solutions to assess the influence of seeds and solution pH on zinc loss and residue yield.The results revealed that seed addition increased the iron removal rate by 3%,elevated the residual iron content by 6.39%,and mitigated zinc loss by 29.55%in the simulated solution.Seed-induced nucleation prevented excessive nuclei formation,fostering crystal stable growth and high crystallinity.In addition,the zinc content of surface adsorption and crystal internal embedding in the residue was determined,and the zinc distribution on the surface was dense.In contrast,the total amount of zinc within the crystal was higher.The test results in the industrial solution demonstrated that the introduction of seeds expanded the pH range for goethite formation and growth,and the zinc loss per ton of iron removed was reduced by 50.91 kg(34.12%)and the iron residue reduced by 0.17 t(8.72%).

文摘The increase in soil temperature associated with climate change has introduced considerable challenges to crop production.Split nitrogen application(SN)represents a potential strategy for improving crop nitrogen use efficiency and enhancing crop stress resistance.Nevertheless,the precise interaction between soil warming(SW)and SN remains unclear.In order to ascertain the impact of SW on maize growth and whether SN can improve the tolerance of maize to SW,a two-year field experiment was conducted(2022-2023).The aim was to examine the influence of two SW ranges(MT,warming 1.40℃;HT,warming 2.75℃)and two nitrogen application methods(N1,one-time basal application of nitrogen fertilizer;N2,one third of base nitrogen fertilizer+two thirds of jointing stage supplemental nitrogen fertilizer)on maize root growth,photosynthetic characteristics,nitrogen use efficiency,and yield.The results demonstrated that SW impeded root growth and precipitated the premature aging of maize leaves following anthesis,particularly in the HT,which led to a notable reduction in maize yield.In comparison to N1,SN has been shown to increase root length density by 8.54%,root bleeding rate by 8.57%,and enhance root distribution ratio in the middle soil layers(20-60 cm).The interaction between SW and SN had a notable impact on maize growth and yield.The SN improved the absorption and utilization efficiency of nitrogen by promoting root development and downward canopy growth,thus improving the tolerance of maize to SW at the later stage of growth.In particular,the N2HT resulted in a 14.51%increase in the photosynthetic rate,a 18.58%increase in nitrogen absorption efficiency,and a 18.32%increase in maize yield compared with N1HT.It can be posited that the SN represents a viable nitrogen management measure with the potential to enhance maize tolerance to soil high-temperature stress.
文摘Objective To investigate the growth parameters of children with phenylketonuria and assess the impact of a phenylalanine-restricted diet on their physical development.Methods The study involved 39 children diagnosed with phenylketonuria through newborn screening at the Central Child Teaching Hospital,Baghdad,Iraq.Data were collected during scheduled monthly check-ups,including phenylalanine levels,diet compliance,and anthropometric measurements.The children were divided into two groups based on their phenylalanine levels during the 3-year follow up period:well-controlled group(average phenylalanine level of less than 360μmol/L,with no single reading exceeding 600μmol/L;n=14)and poorly-controlled group(one or more phenylalanine readings above 600μmol/L during the follow-up period;n=25).Results The mean height readings for all time points(at birth and 3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24 and 36 months of age)were higher in the well-controlled group than the poorly-controlled group,however,only at 3 months of age the difference was statistically significant.Height Z-scores revealed a clearer pattern:although the poorly controlled group had higher height Z-scores at birth(P=0.001),the well-controlled group showed significantly higher height Z-scores at 3,6,12,15,18,24,and 36 months(P<0.05).The well-controlled group exhibited significantly higher mean weight measurements compared to the poorly-controlled group at 3,6,9,15,18 months and 21 months(P<0.05).From 6 to 36 months,the well-controlled group consistently had significantly higher weight Z-scores than the poorly controlled group(P<0.05).The well-controlled group showed more favorable height and weight Z-score distributions at 36 months of age compared to the poorly-controlled group,but the differences were not statistically significant(P>0.05).Both groups had height and weight Z-scores within the normal range at 36 months of age.Conclusions The children with phenylketonuria who receive good dietary control show better improvements in growth parameters compared to those with poor dietary control,however,both groups maintain height and weight Z-scores within the normal range,indicating generally adequate physical development across the cohort.

文摘AIM:To assess the relationship between serological parameters and the prognosis of young patients with retinal vein occlusion(RVO)after intravitreal conbercept injection(IVC).METHODS:This study enrolled 100 young patients(≤50 years old)diagnosed with RVO-related macular edema(RVO-ME)who had been undergoing IVC at the 474 Hospital in Xinjiang between January 2022 and October 2023.Patients were categorized into two groups:70 eyes in the effective group and 30 eyes in the ineffective group.The effective group comprised patients exhibiting a visual acuity improvement of≥2 lines at the last follow-up,with resolved ME and central macular thickness(CMT)<300μm.Conversely,the ineffective group included patients with visual acuity improvement of<1 line,persistent ME,and CMT≥300μm at the last follow-up.Serological parameters,including white blood cell count,neutrophil count,lymphocyte count,monocyte count,and mean platelet volume were assessed before treatment.The correlation between bestcorrected visual acuity(BCVA)and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR),platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR),systemic immune inflammation index(SII),and systemic immune response index(SIRI)was analyzed.Additionally,the association between these serological parameters and the efficacy of IVC was explored.RESULTS:Three months after treatment,the effective group demonstrated a significant improvement in BCVA from 0.82±0.20 to 0.36±0.10,with a concurrent decrease in CMT from 661.28±163.90 to 200.61±82.45μm(P<0.001).Conversely,the ineffective group exhibited minimal changes in BCVA(0.86±0.25 to 0.82±0.14)and CMT(669.84±164.95 to 492.13±138.67μm,P<0.001).The differences in BCVA and CMT between the two groups were statistically significant(P<0.001).According to subgroup analysis,in patients with central RVO(CRVO),BCVA improved from 0.82±0.23 to 0.49±0.12 in the effective group and from 0.80±0.18 to 0.76±0.22 in the ineffective group(P<0.001).The CMT changes followed a similar pattern.In patients with branch RVO(BRVO),comparable trends in BCVA and CMT changes were observed between the effective and ineffective groups(P<0.001).Additionally,the effective group exhibited higher PLR and SII values than the ineffective group(P<0.05).Further CRVO and BRVO subgroups analysis exhibited consistent PLR and SII value trends.CONCLUSION:Compared to other inflammatory factors,elevated PLR and SII levels before treatment are better predictors of outcomes in young RVO-ME patients undergoing IVC treatment.
文摘Machine picking in cotton is an emerging practice in India,to solve the problems of labour shortages and production costs increasing.Cotton production has been declining in recent years;however,the high density planting system(HDPS)offers a viable method to enhance productivity by increasing plant populations per unit area,optimizing resource utilization,and facilitating machine picking.Cotton is an indeterminate plant that produce excessive vegeta-tive growth in favorable soil fertility and moisture conditions,which posing challenges for efficient machine picking.To address this issue,the application of plant growth retardants(PGRs)is essential for controlling canopy architecture.PGRs reduce internode elongation,promote regulated branching,and increase plant compactness,making cotton plants better suited for machine picking.PGRs application also optimizes photosynthates distribution between veg-etative and reproductive growth,resulting in higher yields and improved fibre quality.The integration of HDPS and PGRs applications results in an optimal plant architecture for improving machine picking efficiency.However,the success of this integration is determined by some factors,including cotton variety,environmental conditions,and geographical variations.These approaches not only address yield stagnation and labour shortages but also help to establish more effective and sustainable cotton farming practices,resulting in higher cotton productivity.
