However, the reliability of text-grading for graded readers remains questionable. Whether they show linguistic difference across levels needs further research given a shifted emphasis on multidimensional features. The study used Co-Metrix to give an assessment on graded readers’text-grading both under unidimensional and multidimensional indices, providing a testimony to publishers’original design and to the feasibility against the new trend. It indicated that across-grade difference only partly corresponded with publishers’text-grading rationale that focused on surface features. But it made no sense in linguistics at a deeper level since no overall difference was found. Therefore, the reassessment and design of graded readers were suggested to take account of multidimensional features for across-grade difference.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is a major histological subtype of esophageal cancer.Many molecular genetic changes are associated with its occurrence.Raman spectroscopy has become a new method for the early diagnosis of tumors because it can reflect the structures of substances and their changes at the molecular level.AIM To detect alterations in Raman spectral information across different stages of esophageal neoplasia.METHODS Different grades of esophageal lesions were collected,and a total of 360 groups of Raman spectrum data were collected.A 1D-transformer network model was proposed to handle the task of classifying the spectral data of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.In addition,a deep learning model was applied to visualize the Raman spectral data and interpret their molecular characteristics.RESULTS A comparison among Raman spectral data with different pathological grades and a visual analysis revealed that the Raman peaks with significant differences were concentrated mainly at 1095 cm^(-1)(DNA,symmetric PO,and stretching vibration),1132 cm^(-1)(cytochrome c),1171 cm^(-1)(acetoacetate),1216 cm^(-1)(amide III),and 1315 cm^(-1)(glycerol).A comparison among the training results of different models revealed that the 1Dtransformer network performed best.A 93.30%accuracy value,a 96.65%specificity value,a 93.30%sensitivity value,and a 93.17%F1 score were achieved.CONCLUSION Raman spectroscopy revealed significantly different waveforms for the different stages of esophageal neoplasia.The combination of Raman spectroscopy and deep learning methods could significantly improve the accuracy of classification.

文摘The good combination of mechanical and wear properties for cemented carbides is crucial.In this work,the wear behavior of functionally graded cemented carbide(FGCC)and non-graded cemented carbide(CC),with CoNiFeCr multi-principal-element alloy(MPEA)binder,has been investigated by performing sliding wear tests and composition characterization.The results showed that compared with CC,FGCC had higher hardness,stronger fracture toughness,better wear performance,and similar TRS.FGCCs exhibited lower wear rates(3.44×10^(−7)–6.95×10^(−6)mm^(3)/(N m))and coefficients of friction(COFs)(0.27–0.39)than CCs from RT to 600℃due to mitigation of multiple risks caused by binder removal,fragmentation and pull-out of WC grains,high-temperature oxidation and softening.In the low-temperature wear stage,the MPEA binder underwent dynamic recrystallization(DRX)and twinning deformation before removing from the surface.The binder removal caused dislocation pile-ups and stacking faults(SFs)to form under high stress,resulting in fragmentation and pull-out of WC grains.The low-temperature wear was dominated by abrasive wear and adhesive wear,with a low wear rate and a high and unstable COF.In the high-temperature wear stage,initial pitting oxidation of WC grains generated many subgrain boundaries,reducing heat transfer and exacerbating oxidation,resulting in an oxide layer enriched with WO3,Mx Oy,and MWO4.High-temperature wear was dominated by oxidation wear and high-temperature softening,with a high wear rate and a low and smooth COF.The results from the present study do not only provide theoretical guidance for an understanding of the antiwear mechanism of WC-CoNiFeCr,but also a new approach for the preparation of cemented carbides with high wear resistance.

文摘It is important to analyze the damage evolution process of surrounding rock under different water content for the stability of engineering rock mass.Based on digital speckle correlation(DSCM),acoustic emission(AE)and electromagnetic radiation(EMR),uniaxial hierarchical cyclic loading and unloading tests were carried out on sandstones with different fracture numbers under dry,natural and saturated water content,to explore the fracture propagation,failure precursor characteristics and damage response mechanism under the influence of water content effect.The results show that with the increase of water content,the peak stress and crack initiation stress decrease gradually,and the decreases are 15.28%-21.11%and 17.64%-23.04%,respectively.The peak strain and crack initiation strain increase gradually,and the increases are 19.85%-44.53%and 19.15%-41.94%,respectively.The precracked rock with different water content is mainly characterized by tensile failure at different loading stages.However,with the increase of water content,the proportion of shear cracks gradually increases,while acoustic emission events gradually decrease,the dissipative energy and energy storage limits of the rock under peak load gradually decrease,and the charge signal increases significantly,which is because the lubrication effect of water reduces the friction coefficient between crack surfaces.

文摘The graded density impactor(GDI)dynamic loading technique is crucial for acquiring the dynamic physical property parameters of materials used in weapons.The accuracy and timeliness of GDI structural design are key to achieving controllable stress-strain rate loading.In this study,we have,for the first time,combined one-dimensional fluid computational software with machine learning methods.We first elucidated the mechanisms by which GDI structures control stress and strain rates.Subsequently,we constructed a machine learning model to create a structure-property response surface.The results show that altering the loading velocity and interlayer thickness has a pronounced regulatory effect on stress and strain rates.In contrast,the impedance distribution index and target thickness have less significant effects on stress regulation,although there is a matching relationship between target thickness and interlayer thickness.Compared with traditional design methods,the machine learning approach offers a10^(4)—10^(5)times increase in efficiency and the potential to achieve a global optimum,holding promise for guiding the design of GDI.
文摘BACKGROUND Endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)has become a widely accepted,minimally invasive treatment for gastrointestinal submucosal tumors.It has been reported that humanistic nursing care with graded psychological interventions can effectively enhance patients’physical activity in patients,reduce postoperative complications,and improve their postoperative quality of life.AIM To investigate the effects of combining humanistic care with graded psychological support on nursing satisfaction and quality of life in patients undergoing ESD for gastrointestinal submucosal tumors.METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 180 patients who underwent ESD surgery for gastrointestinal submucosal tumors at our hospital between March 2021 and February 2023.Patients were allocated into groups based on the nursing care they received:The control group,which received routine care(n=90),and the observation group,which was subjected to humanistic nursing care in combination with graded psychological support(n=90).Patient anxiety and depression were assessed using the self-rating anxiety scale(SAS)and self-rating depression scale(SDS).Quality of life was evaluated using the shortform 36 health survey,and additional indications such as time to first food intake,surgery duration,length of hospital stay,nursing satisfaction,and adverse reactions were also recorded.Data was analyzed using SPSS22.0,with t-tests employed for continuous variables andχ2 tests for categorical data.RESULTS Patients in the observation group experienced significantly shorter times to first postoperative meal,surgery,and hospital stay compared to the control group.After the intervention,the SAS score of the observation group was 43.17±5.68,and the SDS score was 41.57±6.52,both significantly lower than those of the control group,with SAS score of 52.38±5.21 and SDS score of 51.23±8.25.In addition,the observation group scored significantly higher in daily living,physical function,psychological well-being,and social functioning(80.01±6.39,83.59±6.89,81.69±5.34,and 85.23±6.05,respectively).Moreover,the observation group also exhibited higher satisfaction and selfefficacy scores and a lower incidence of adverse reactions compared to the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION For patients undergoing ESD for gastrointestinal submucosal tumors,humanistic nursing care in combination with graded psychological nursing care significantly shorten the times to first postoperative meal,surgery,and hospital stay,effectively alleviates anxiety and depression,improves quality of life and nursing satisfaction,and mitigate the incidence of adverse reactions.
