About 85% of these deaths occurred in low- and middle-income countries. The aim of this study was to assess the frequency and distribution of the human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes in women showing cytological abnormalities of the cervix at the Sourô SANOU University Hospital (CHUSS) in Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso. This is a descriptive study of women recruited at the CHUSS. The cervico-uterine smear examination was carried out at the CHUSS Anatomy and Pathology Department for cervical cancer screening. The data were collected from women with atypical cells on their cervico-uterine smear. Cervicovaginal samples were taken from consenting women and HPV genotyping was performed using the HPV Direct FLOW CHIP kit at CERBA. We obtained approval from the ethics committee. The data were analyzed using the SPSS 26 software. The results of the study showed that 67.79% of the participants were aged between 50 and 65, a group that is particularly vulnerable to persistent infection with high-risk oncogenic HPV genotypes. Of the women screened, 40.7% were HPV positive and 29.2% had multiple infections. The most common genotypes were HPV 35, followed by HPV 18, 52, 58 and 66. These data highlight the need for increased surveillance and targeted prevention strategies among this female population.展开更多

文摘As-forged WSTi6421 titanium alloy billet afterβannealing was investigated.Abnormally coarse grains larger than adjacent grains could be observed in the microstructures,forming abnormal grain structures with uneven size distribution.Through electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD),the forged microstructure at various locations of as-forged WSTi6421 titanium alloy billet was analyzed,revealing that the strength of theβphase cubic texture generated by forging significantly influences the grain size afterβannealing.Heat treatment experiments were conducted within the temperature range from T_(β)−50°C to T_(β)+10°C to observe the macro-and micro-morphologies.Results show that the cubic texture ofβphase caused by forging impacts the texture of the secondaryαphase,which subsequently influences theβphase formed during the post-βannealing process.Moreover,the pinning effect of the residual primaryαphase plays a crucial role in the growth ofβgrains during theβannealing process.EBSD analysis results suggest that the strength ofβphase with cubic texture formed during forging process impacts the orientation distribution differences ofβgrains afterβannealing.Additionally,the development of grains with large orientations within the cubic texture shows a certain degree of selectivity duringβannealing,which is affected by various factors,including the pinning effect of the primaryαphase,the strength of the matrix cubic texture,and the orientation relationship betweenβgrain and matrix.Comprehensively,the stronger the texture in a certain region,the less likely the large misoriented grains suffering secondary growth,thereby aggregating the difference in microstructure and grain orientation distribution across different regions afterβannealing.

文摘Male infertility can result from impaired sperm motility caused by multiple morphological abnormalities of the flagella(MMAF).Distinct projections encircling the central microtubules of the spermatozoal axoneme play pivotal roles in flagellar bending and spermatozoal movement.Mammalian sperm-associated antigen 17(SPAG17)encodes a conserved axonemal protein of cilia and flagella,forming part of the C1a projection of the central apparatus,with functions related to ciliary/flagellar motility,skeletal growth,and male fertility.This study investigated two novel homozygous SPAG17 mutations(M1:NM_206996.2,c.829+1G>T,p.Asp212_Glu276del;and M2:c.2120del,p.Leu707*)identified in four infertile patients from two consanguineous Pakistani families.These patients displayed the MMAF phenotype confirmed by Papanicolaou staining and scanning electron microscopy assays of spermatozoa.Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(PCR)of patients’spermatozoa also revealed a significant decrease in SPAG17 mRNA expression,and immunofluorescence staining showed the absence of SPAG17 protein signals along the flagella.However,no apparent ciliary-related symptoms or skeletal malformations were observed in the chest X-rays of any of the patients.Transmission electron microscopy of axoneme cross-sections from the patients showed incomplete C1a projection and a higher frequency of missing microtubule doublets 1 and 9 compared with those from fertile controls.Immunofluorescence staining and Western blot analyses of spermatogenesis-associated protein 17(SPATA17),a component of the C1a projection,and sperm-associated antigen 6(SPAG6),a marker of the spring layer,revealed disrupted expression of both proteins in the patients’spermatozoa.Altogether,these findings demonstrated that SPAG17 maintains the integrity of spermatozoal flagellar axoneme,expanding the phenotypic spectrum of SPAG17 mutations in humans.

The results of the study showed that 67.79% of the participants were aged between 50 and 65, a group that is particularly vulnerable to persistent infection with high-risk oncogenic HPV genotypes. Of the women screened, 40.7% were HPV positive and 29.2% had multiple infections. The most common genotypes were HPV 35, followed by HPV 18, 52, 58 and 66. These data highlight the need for increased surveillance and targeted prevention strategies among this female population.

文摘The integration of cloud computing into traditional industrial control systems is accelerating the evolution of Industrial Cyber-Physical System(ICPS),enhancing intelligence and autonomy.However,this transition also expands the attack surface,introducing critical security vulnerabilities.To address these challenges,this article proposes a hybrid intrusion detection scheme for securing ICPSs that combines system state anomaly and network traffic anomaly detection.Specifically,an improved variation-Bayesian-based noise covariance-adaptive nonlinear Kalman filtering(IVB-NCA-NLKF)method is developed to model nonlinear system dynamics,enabling optimal state estimation in multi-sensor ICPS environments.Intrusions within the physical sensing system are identified by analyzing residual discrepancies between predicted and observed system states.Simultaneously,an adaptive network traffic anomaly detection mechanism is introduced,leveraging learned traffic patterns to detect node-and network-level anomalies through pattern matching.Extensive experiments on a simulated network control system demonstrate that the proposed framework achieves higher detection accuracy(92.14%)with a reduced false alarm rate(0.81%).Moreover,it not only detects known attacks and vulnerabilities but also uncovers stealthy attacks that induce system state deviations,providing a robust and comprehensive security solution for the safety protection of ICPS.

文摘Nuclearβ-decay,a typical decay process for unstable nuclei,is a key mechanism for producing heavy elements in the Universe.In this study,neural networks were employed to predictβ-decay half-lives and,for the first time,to identify abnormal trends in nuclearβ-decay half-lives based on deviations between experimental values and the predictions of neural networks.Nuclei exhibiting anomalous increases,abrupt peaks,sharp decreases,abnormal odd-even oscillations,and excessively large experimental errors in theirβ-decay half-lives,which deviate from systematic patterns,were identified through deviations.These anomalous phenomena may be associated with shell effects,shape coexistence,or discrepancies in the experimental data.The discovery and analysis of these abnormal nuclei provide a valuable reference for further investigations using sophisticated microscopic theories,potentially offering insights into new physics through studies of nuclearβ-decay half-lives.

文摘Abnormal grain growth(AGG),a prevalent phenomenon in dilute magnesium(Mg)alloys during elevated-temperature processing,significantly compromises mechanical performance through microstructural degradation.This study investigates AGG evolution in a heat-treatable Mg-1Al-0.3Ca-0.5Mn(wt.%)alloy,revealing its fundamental mechanism through phase interaction analysis.The AGG initiation is predominantly driven by Zener pinning force attenuation around abnormally coarsened Al_(8)Mn_(5) precipitates.Mechanistically,this heterogeneous coarsening stems from preferential Al_(8)Mn_(5) phase growth kinetics adjacent to Al_(2)Ca phase during homogenization treatment,creating localized pinning force discontinuities.However,addition of 0.2 wt.%Gd facilitates phase transformation from Al_(8)Mn_(5) to thermally stable Al_(8)Mn_(4)Gd with lower Gibbs free energy,thereby promoting a more uniform and refined precipitate distribution.Consequently,the Gd-containing alloy exhibits enhanced grain thermal stability,maintaining a refined microstructure with average grain size of∼7.7μm even after T4 treatment at 500℃ for 1 h,which simultaneously improves strength and ductility compared to the Gd-free alloy.

文摘To investigate the correlation between propacetamol and postoperative liver enzyme abnormalities among patients,a retrospective analysis was conducted on inpatients in the thoracic surgery department spanning from January 1 to June 30,2023.Causality assessment regarding propacetamol and postoperative liver enzyme abnormalities was performed using the updated Roussel Uclaf Causality Assessment Method(RUCAM).Furthermore,independent risk factors for liver enzyme abnormalities were identified through both univariate and multivariate analyses,followed by the construction and validation of a clinical nomogram.A total of 247 patients who received propacetamol were ultimately included in the study.Liver enzyme abnormalities post-surgery were more accurately predicted by considering the daily dose of propacetamol and the number of medications(OR(95%CI),4.831(2.797,8.344),P<0.001;10.007(3.878,25.823),P<0.001).A clinical predictive nomogram model was developed,incorporating these two independent risk factors,which exhibited favorable discrimination(AUC(95%CI),0.811(0.750,0.872)),calibration,and decision curve analysis(DCA)demonstrating the highest net benefits across a broad spectrum of threshold probabilities(10%to 90%).The daily dose of propacetamol and the number of medications were found to be independently associated with postoperative liver enzyme abnormalities.This user-friendly nomogram,comprising these two factors,might assist clinicians in assessing the risks of propacetamol-related liver dysfunction following surgery.

文摘The deformation behavior of hot-rolled AZ31 magnesium(Mg)alloy sheet was analyzed when subjected to uniaxial tension along its normal direction at temperatures ranging from 100 to 400℃and strain rates ranging from 0.5 to 100 mm/min.Based on the stress−strain curves and the dynamic material model,the hot processing map was established,which demonstrates that the power dissipation factor(η)is the most sensitive to strain rate at 400℃via absorption of dislocations.At 400℃,sample at 0.5 mm/min possessesηof 0.89 because of its lower kernel average misorientation(KAM)value of 0.51,while sample at 100 mm/min possessesηof 0.46 with a higher KAM value of 1.147.In addition,the flow stress presents a slight decrease of 25.94 MPa at 10 mm/min compared to that at 100 mm/min and 100℃.The reasons are twofold:a special~34°texture component during 100℃-100 mm/min favoring the activation of basal slip,and dynamic recrystallization(DRX)also providing softening effect to some extent by absorbing dislocations.Difference in activation of basal slip among twin laminas during 100℃-100 mm/min results in deformation inhomogeneity within the grains,which generates stress that helps matrix grains tilt to a direction favorable to basal slip,forming the special~34°texture component.

文摘Thermal power generation systems have stringent requirements for water and steam quality,i.e.,condensate water quality is one of the critical issues.In this paper,we designed a two-layer model based on an autoencoder and expert knowledge to achieve the early warning and causal analysis of condensate water quality abnormalities.An early warning model using an autoencoder model is built based on the historical data affecting the condensate water quality.Next,an analytical model of condensate water quality abnormalities was then developed by combining expert knowledge and trend test algorithms.Two different datasets were used to test the proposed model,respectively.The accuracy of the autoencoder model in the short-period test set is 88.83%,which shows that the early warning model can accurately analyze the condensate water quality data and achieve the purpose of early warning.For the long-time period test set,the model can correctly identify each abnormality and simultaneously indicates the cause of the abnormal condensate water quality.The proposed model can correctly identify abnormal working conditions and it is applicable to other thermal power plants.

文摘Multiple morphological abnormalities of sperm flagella(MMAF)is a severe form of asthenoteratozoospermia,characterized by morphological abnormalities and reduced motility of sperm,causing male infertility.Although approximately 60%of MMAF cases can be explained genetically,the etiology of the remaining cases is unclear.Here,we identified two novel compound heterozygous variants in the gene,dynein axonemal heavy chain 10(DNAH10),in three patients from two unrelated Pakistani families using whole-exome sequencing(WES),including one compound heterozygous mutation(DNAH10:c.9409C>A[p.P3137T];c.12946G>C[p.D4316H])in family 1 and another compound heterozygous mutation(DNAH10:c.8849G>A[p.G2950D];c.11509C>T[p.R3687W])in family 2.All the identified variants are absent or rare in public genome databases and are predicted to have deleterious effects according to multiple bioinformatic tools.Sanger sequencing revealed that these variants follow an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance.Hematoxylin and eosin(H&E)staining revealed MMAF,including sperm head abnormalities,in the patients.In addition,immunofluorescence staining revealed loss of DNAH10 protein signals along sperm flagella.These findings broaden the spectrum of DNAH10 variants and expand understanding of the genetic basis of male infertility associated with the MMAF phenotype.

文摘The widespread adoption of tunnel boring machines(TBMs)has led to an increased focus on disc cutter wear,including both normal and abnormal types,for efficient and safe TBM excavation.However,abnormal wear has yet to be thoroughly investigated,primarily due to the complexity of considering mixed ground conditions and the imbalance in the number of instances between the two types of wear.This study developed a prediction model for abnormal TBM disc cutter wear,considering mixed ground conditions,by employing interpretable machine learning with data augmentation.An equivalent elastic modulus was used to consider the characteristics of mixed ground conditions,and wear data was obtained from 65 cutterhead intervention(CHI)reports covering both mixed ground and hard rock sections.With a balanced training dataset obtained by data augmentation,an extreme gradient boosting(XGB)model delivered acceptable results with an accuracy of 0.94,an F1-score of 0.808,and a recall of 0.8.In addition,the accuracy for each individual disc cutter exhibited low variability.When employing data augmentation,a significant improvement in recall was observed compared to when it was not used,although the difference in accuracy and F1-score was marginal.The subsequent model interpretation revealed the chamber pressure,cutter installation radius,and torque as significant contributors.Specifically,a threshold in chamber pressure was observed,which could induce abnormal wear.The study also explored how elevated values of these influential contributors correlate with abnormal wear.The proposed model offers a valuable tool for planning the replacement of abnormally worn disc cutters,enhancing the safety and efficiency of TBM operations.

文摘Detecting abnormal cervical cells is crucial for early identification and timely treatment of cervical cancer.However,this task is challenging due to the morphological similarities between abnormal and normal cells and the significant variations in cell size.Pathologists often refer to surrounding cells to identify abnormalities.To emulate this slide examination behavior,this study proposes a Multi-Scale Feature Fusion Network(MSFF-Net)for detecting cervical abnormal cells.MSFF-Net employs a Cross-Scale Pooling Model(CSPM)to effectively capture diverse features and contextual information,ranging from local details to the overall structure.Additionally,a Multi-Scale Fusion Attention(MSFA)module is introduced to mitigate the impact of cell size variations by adaptively fusing local and global information at different scales.To handle the complex environment of cervical cell images,such as cell adhesion and overlapping,the Inner-CIoU loss function is utilized to more precisely measure the overlap between bounding boxes,thereby improving detection accuracy in such scenarios.Experimental results on the Comparison detector dataset demonstrate that MSFF-Net achieves a mean average precision(mAP)of 63.2%,outperforming state-of-the-art methods while maintaining a relatively small number of parameters(26.8 M).This study highlights the effectiveness of multi-scale feature fusion in enhancing the detection of cervical abnormal cells,contributing to more accurate and efficient cervical cancer screening.

文摘Abnormally low pressure commonly develops in petroliferous basins.It is closely associated with hydrocarbon distribution and can hinder safe drilling operations.Potentiometric surface is one of the causes of abnormally low pressure,but the relationship between such surface and abnormal pressure has not attracted much research attention.In this paper,a method is proposed for quantifying the potentiometric surface of the tight oil reservoir of the Upper Triassic Yanchang Formation in the Zhenjing area,southern Ordos Basin,China.This method involves screening pressure data that reflect real pore pressure conditions underground and analyzing the formation sealing conditions in the reservoir based on fracture development and the chemical characteristics of the formation water.The relationship between the potentiometric surface and the abnormally low pressure observed in the study area is discussed.The results show that the pressure coefficient of the Yanchang Formation in the Zhenjing area is 0.85e1.02,with an average of 0.93,indicating a state between abnormally low pressure and normal pressure.The Yanchang Formation has complex sealing conditions,with favorable overall sealing and a locally open hydrodynamic environment controlled by sand body connectivity and fault activity.We proposed a method to calculate the potentiometric surface using the measured pressure data with a pressure coefficient close to 1.The potentiometric surface is 1040e1200 m,with a high value in the northwest and a low value in the southeast,and it is 0e350 m below the ground level.The pressure coefficient was calibrated with an average of 1,with the potentiometric surface used as the starting point,indicating that the low pressure coefficient may be caused by the potentiometric surface below the ground level.The results have theoretical implications for the analysis of formation pressure characteristics in areas or basins with comparable geological conditions,and practical implications for the analysis and development of oil and gas.
文摘Blockchain platform swith the unique characteristics of anonymity,decentralization,and transparency of their transactions,which are faced with abnormal activities such as money laundering,phishing scams,and fraudulent behavior,posing a serious threat to account asset security.For these potential security risks,this paper proposes a hybrid neural network detection method(HNND)that learns multiple types of account features and enhances fusion information among them to effectively detect abnormal transaction behaviors in the blockchain.In HNND,the Temporal Transaction Graph Attention Network(T2GAT)is first designed to learn biased aggregation representation of multi-attribute transactions among nodes,which can capture key temporal information from node neighborhood transactions.Then,the Graph Convolutional Network(GCN)is adopted which captures abstract structural features of the transaction network.Further,the Stacked Denoising Autoencode(SDA)is developed to achieve adaptive fusion of thses features from different modules.Moreover,the SDA enhances robustness and generalization ability of node representation,leading to higher binary classification accuracy in detecting abnormal behaviors of blockchain accounts.Evaluations on a real-world abnormal transaction dataset demonstrate great advantages of the proposed HNND method over other compared methods.

文摘BACKGROUND Research has shown that several factors can influence postoperative abnormal liver function;however,most studies on this issue have focused specifically on hepatic and cardiac surgeries,leaving limited research on contributing factors in other types of surgeries.AIM To identify the risk factors for early postoperative abnormal liver function in multiple surgery types and construct a risk prediction model.METHODS This retrospective cohort study involved 3720 surgical patients from 5 surgical departments at Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.Patients were divided into abnormal(n=108)and normal(n=3612)groups based on liver function post-surgery.Univariate analysis and LASSO regression screened variables,followed by logistic regression to identify risk factors.A prediction model was constructed based on the variables selected via logistic re-gression.The goodness-of-fit of the model was evaluated using the Hosm-er–Lemeshow test,while discriminatory ability was measured by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve.Calibration curves were plotted to visualize the consistency between predicted probabilities and observed outcomes.RESULTS The key factors contributing to abnormal liver function after surgery include elevated aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase levels and reduced platelet counts pre-surgery,as well as the sevoflurane use during the procedure,among others.CONCLUSION The above factors collectively represent notable risk factors for postoperative liver function injury,and the prediction model developed based on these factors demonstrates strong predictive efficacy.
文摘BACKGROUND Liver function of chronic hepatitis B(CHB)patients is essentially normal after treatment with antiviral drugs.In rare cases,persistently abnormally elevatedα-fetoprotein(AFP)is seen in CHB patients following long-term antiviral treatment.However,in the absence of imaging evidence of liver cancer,a reasonable expla-nation for this phenomenon is still lacking.AIM To explore the causes of abnormal AFP in patients with CHB who were not diag-nosed with liver cancer.METHODS From November 2019 to May 2023,15 patients with CHB after antiviral treatment and elevated AFP were selected.Clinical data and quality indicators related to laboratory testing,imaging data,and pathological data were obtained through inpatient medical records.RESULTS All patients had increased AFP and significantly elevated IgG.Cancer was excluded by imaging examination.Only four patients had elevated alanine ami-notransferase,10 had elevated aspartate aminotransferase,nine had elevated total bilirubin,and two had antinuclear antibodies.The liver biopsy and histopatho-logical examination indicated that 14 patients had rosette,moderate,or higher interfacial inflammation,lymphocyte infiltration,and severe hepatic fibers(11 cases),which was consistent with the pathological features of autoimmune hepa-titis(AIH).After 8-12 week of hormone therapy,the levels of AFP and IgG,and liver function returned to normal(P<0.05).CONCLUSION For patients with CHB and elevated AFP after antiviral treatment,autoimmune hepatitis should be considered.CHB with AIH is clinically insidious and difficult to detect,and prone to progression to cirrhosis.Liver puncture pathological examination should be performed when necessary to confirm diagnosis.

文摘Nowadays,abnormal traffic detection for Software-Defined Networking(SDN)faces the challenges of large data volume and high dimensionality.Since traditional machine learning-based detection methods have the problem of data redundancy,the Metaheuristic Algorithm(MA)is introduced to select features beforemachine learning to reduce the dimensionality of data.Since a Tyrannosaurus Optimization Algorithm(TROA)has the advantages of few parameters,simple implementation,and fast convergence,and it shows better results in feature selection,TROA can be applied to abnormal traffic detection for SDN.However,TROA suffers frominsufficient global search capability,is easily trapped in local optimums,and has poor search accuracy.Then,this paper tries to improve TROA,namely the Improved Tyrannosaurus Optimization Algorithm(ITROA).It proposes a metaheuristic-driven abnormal traffic detection model for SDN based on ITROA.Finally,the validity of the ITROA is verified by the benchmark function and the UCI dataset,and the feature selection optimization operation is performed on the InSDN dataset by ITROA and other MAs to obtain the optimized feature subset for SDN abnormal traffic detection.The experiment shows that the performance of the proposed ITROA outperforms compared MAs in terms of the metaheuristic-driven model for SDN,achieving an accuracy of 99.37%on binary classification and 96.73%on multiclassification.
