Methods: Ninety patients with type 2 diabetes admitted to the Department of Endocrinology of the hospital from January 2024 to June 2024 were selected. The control group (n = 45) received routine nursing care, while the observation group (n = 45) received whole-course nursing. Indicators such as glucose metabolism and compliance behavior were measured before and after care, and the health and quality of life of patients in both groups were evaluated. Results: A comparison of blood glucose levels and compliance behavior showed that the observation group had lower blood glucose levels than the control group (P < 0.05). Additionally, the compliance behavior score of the observation group was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The holistic nursing model demonstrates significant nursing effects for patients with type 2 diabetes. This approach not only assists in blood sugar control, prevents disease progression, and reduces complications, but also enhances patients’ knowledge of health management, aiding in their recovery.展开更多

Many studies have indicated the efficacy of various types of devices, but have not included a sufficient objective evaluation. Multisource radiofrequency uses multiple phase controlled radiofrequency generators with real time impedance control, allowing painless, deeper dermal heating with better adaptation to differences in individual skin impedance. In this study we used three-dimensional imaging for the objective evaluation of facial skin tightening by multisource phase-controlled radiofrequency. Methods: Twenty Japanese patients were treated with a multisource phase-controlled radiofrequency device. Three-dimensional imaging was performed with a Canfield Scientific Vectra camera and software, and quantitative volume measurements were taken to evaluate the change in the post-treatment volume. The patients then provided subjective assessments. Results: Objective assessments of the treated cheek volume evaluated by a three-dimensional color schematic representation with quantitative volume measurements showed significant improvement three months after the final treatment. The mean volume reduction at the last post-treatment visit was 3.878 ± 2.86 mL. The post-treatment volume was significantly reduced compared to the pretreatment volume in all of the volunteers (P = 0.0007). Ninety-five percent of volunteers reported satisfaction with the improvement of skin laxity, and ninety percent of volunteers reported satisfaction with the improvement of wrinkles, such as the nasolabial folds. Conclusions: The advantages of these multisource phase-controlled radiofrequency treatments are its high efficacy for skin tightening associated with minimal level of discomfort, minimal side effects, and low cost. Taken together, these characteristics facilitate the ability to give repeated treatments as a stand alone treatment or adjunct to surgery. This study provides for the first time a qualitative and quantitative volumetric assessment, proving the ability of the technology to reduce the volume through non invasive skin tightening.展开更多

Designing efficient IoT networks with these heterogeneous devices requires the selection of appropriate routing protocols, which is crucial for maintaining high Quality of Service (QoS). The Internet Engineering Task Force’s Routing Over Low Power and Lossy Networks (IETF ROLL) working group developed the IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) to meet these needs. While the initial RPL standard focused on single-metric route selection, ongoing research explores enhancing RPL by incorporating multiple routing metrics and developing new Objective Functions (OFs). This paper introduces a novel Objective Function (OF), the Reliable and Secure Objective Function (RSOF), designed to enhance the reliability and trustworthiness of parent selection at both the node and link levels within IoT and RPL routing protocols. The RSOF employs an adaptive parent node selection mechanism that incorporates multiple metrics, including Residual Energy (RE), Expected Transmission Count (ETX), Extended RPL Node Trustworthiness (ERNT), and a novel metric that measures node failure rate (NFR). In this mechanism, nodes with a high NFR are excluded from the parent selection process to improve network reliability and stability. The proposed RSOF was evaluated using random and grid topologies in the Cooja Simulator, with tests conducted across small, medium, and large-scale networks to examine the impact of varying node densities. The simulation results indicate a significant improvement in network performance, particularly in terms of average latency, packet acknowledgment ratio (PAR), packet delivery ratio (PDR), and Control Message Overhead (CMO), compared to the standard Minimum Rank with Hysteresis Objective Function (MRHOF).展开更多

Despite the critical impo...Automated detection of suspended anomalous objects on high-speed railway catenary systems using computer vision-based technology is a critical task for ensuring railway transportation safety. Despite the critical importance of this task, conventional vision-based foreign object detection methodologies have predominantly concentrated on image data, neglecting the exploration and integration of textual information. The currently popular multimodal model Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) employs contrastive learning to enable simultaneous understanding of both visual and textual modalities. Drawing inspiration from CLIP’s capabilities, this paper introduces a novel CLIP-based multimodal foreign object detection model tailored for railway applications, referred to as Railway-CLIP. This model leverages CLIP’s robust generalization capabilities to enhance performance in the context of catenary foreign object detection. The Railway-CLIP model is primarily composed of an image encoder and a text encoder. Initially, the Segment Anything Model (SAM) is employed to preprocess raw images, identifying candidate bounding boxes that may contain foreign objects. Both the original images and the detected candidate bounding boxes are subsequently fed into the image encoder to extract their respective visual features. In parallel, distinct prompt templates are crafted for both the original images and the candidate bounding boxes to serve as textual inputs. These prompts are then processed by the text encoder to derive textual features. The image and text encoders collaboratively project the multimodal features into a shared semantic space, facilitating the computation of similarity scores between visual and textual representations. The final detection results are determined based on these similarity scores, ensuring a robust and accurate identification of anomalous objects. Extensive experiments on our collected Railway Anomaly Dataset (RAD) demonstrate that the proposed Railway-CLIP outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods, achieving 97.25% AUROC and 92.66% F1-score, thereby validating the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed approach in real-world high-speed railway anomaly detection scenarios.展开更多

文摘AIM:To compare objective dry retinoscopy and subjective refraction measurements in patients with mild keratoconus(KCN)and quantify any differences.METHODS:This cross-sectional study was done on 68 eyes of 68 patients diagnosed with mild KCN.Objective dry retinoscopy using autorefractometer and subjective refraction measurements were performed.Sphere,cylinder,J0,J45,and spherical equivalent values were compared between the two techniques.RESULTS:The mean age of 68 patients with mild KCN was 21.32±5.03y(12–35y).There were 37(54.4%)males.Objective refraction yielded significantly more myopic sphere(-1.44 D vs-0.57 D),higher cylinder magnitude(-2.24 D vs-1.48 D),and more myopic spherical equivalent(-2.56 D vs-1.31 D)compared to subjective refraction(all P<0.05).The mean differences were-0.87 D for sphere,-0.76 D for cylinder,and-1.25 D for spherical equivalent.No significant differences were found for J0 and J45 values,indicating agreement in astigmatism axis(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:In patients with mild KCN,objective dry retinoscopy overestimates the degree of myopia and astigmatism compared to subjective refraction.The irregular cornea in KCN likely impacts objective measurements.Subjective refraction allows compensation for irregularity,providing a more accurate correction.When determining refractive targets,the tendency of objective methods to overcorrect should be considered.

文摘Visible and infrared(RGB-IR)fusion object detection plays an important role in security,disaster relief,etc.In recent years,deep-learning-based RGB-IR fusion detection methods have been developing rapidly,but still struggle to deal with the complex and changing scenarios captured by drones,mainly due to two reasons:(A)RGB-IR fusion detectors are susceptible to inferior inputs that degrade performance and stability.(B)RGB-IR fusion detectors are susceptible to redundant features that reduce accuracy and efficiency.In this paper,an innovative RGB-IR fusion detection framework based on global-local feature optimization,named GLFDet,is proposed to improve the detection performance and efficiency of drone-captured objects.The key components of GLFDet include a Global Feature Optimization(GFO)module,a Local Feature Optimization(LFO)module and a Channel Separation Fusion(CSF)module.Specifically,GFO calculates the information content of the input image from the frequency domain and optimizes the features holistically.Then,LFO dynamically selects high-value features and filters out low-value features before fusion,which significantly improves the efficiency of fusion.Finally,CSF fuses the RGB and IR features across the corresponding channels,which avoids the rearrangement of the channel relationships and enhances the model stability.Extensive experimental results show that the proposed method achieves the best performance on three popular RGB-IR datasets Drone Vehicle,VEDAI,and LLVIP.In addition,GLFDet is more lightweight than other comparable models,making it more appealing to edge devices such as drones.The code is available at https://github.com/lao chen330/GLFDet.
文摘The forecast results of temperature based on the intelligent grids of the Central Meteorological Observatory and the meteorological bureau of the autonomous region and the numerical forecast model of the European Center(EC model)from February to December in 2022 were used.Based on the data of the national intelligent grid forecast,the intelligent grid forecast of the regional bureau,EC model,etc.,temperature was predicted.According to the research of the grid point forecast synthesis algorithm with the highest accuracy rate in the recent three days,the temperature grid point correction was conducted in two forms of stations and grids.In order to reduce the deviation caused by the seasonal system temperature difference,a temperature prediction model was established by using the rolling forecast errors of 5,10,15,20,25 and 30 d as the basis data.The verification and evaluation of objective correction results show that the accuracy rate of temperature forecast by the intelligent grid of the regional bureau,the national intelligent grid,and EC model could be increased by 10%,8%,and 12%,respectively.
文摘The Internet of Things (IoT) integrates diverse devices into the Internet infrastructure, including sensors, meters, and wearable devices. Designing efficient IoT networks with these heterogeneous devices requires the selection of appropriate routing protocols, which is crucial for maintaining high Quality of Service (QoS). The Internet Engineering Task Force’s Routing Over Low Power and Lossy Networks (IETF ROLL) working group developed the IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) to meet these needs. While the initial RPL standard focused on single-metric route selection, ongoing research explores enhancing RPL by incorporating multiple routing metrics and developing new Objective Functions (OFs). This paper introduces a novel Objective Function (OF), the Reliable and Secure Objective Function (RSOF), designed to enhance the reliability and trustworthiness of parent selection at both the node and link levels within IoT and RPL routing protocols. The RSOF employs an adaptive parent node selection mechanism that incorporates multiple metrics, including Residual Energy (RE), Expected Transmission Count (ETX), Extended RPL Node Trustworthiness (ERNT), and a novel metric that measures node failure rate (NFR). In this mechanism, nodes with a high NFR are excluded from the parent selection process to improve network reliability and stability. The proposed RSOF was evaluated using random and grid topologies in the Cooja Simulator, with tests conducted across small, medium, and large-scale networks to examine the impact of varying node densities. The simulation results indicate a significant improvement in network performance, particularly in terms of average latency, packet acknowledgment ratio (PAR), packet delivery ratio (PDR), and Control Message Overhead (CMO), compared to the standard Minimum Rank with Hysteresis Objective Function (MRHOF).
文摘According to the demand for weather forecast at the venues of the 14 th National Winter Games,based on the data of the fine grid model of the European Centre(EC)and RMAPS model,as well as the real-time observation data of the competition fields,a dynamic optimal correction method was proposed to improve the accuracy rate of temperature and wind speed prediction.Through techniques such as deviation correction and univariate linear regression,mathematical models applicable to different competition regions were constructed,and the effective correction of objective forecast products within 0-120 h were realized.The results show that this method significantly improved the accuracy rate of the prediction of temperature,wind speed and extreme wind speed,and the effect was more obvious especially when the model performance was unstable.Meanwhile,terrain and climate background had a significant impact on the correction effect.This study provides new technical support for mountain meteorological forecast.

文摘Automated detection of suspended anomalous objects on high-speed railway catenary systems using computer vision-based technology is a critical task for ensuring railway transportation safety. Despite the critical importance of this task, conventional vision-based foreign object detection methodologies have predominantly concentrated on image data, neglecting the exploration and integration of textual information. The currently popular multimodal model Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) employs contrastive learning to enable simultaneous understanding of both visual and textual modalities. Drawing inspiration from CLIP’s capabilities, this paper introduces a novel CLIP-based multimodal foreign object detection model tailored for railway applications, referred to as Railway-CLIP. This model leverages CLIP’s robust generalization capabilities to enhance performance in the context of catenary foreign object detection. The Railway-CLIP model is primarily composed of an image encoder and a text encoder. Initially, the Segment Anything Model (SAM) is employed to preprocess raw images, identifying candidate bounding boxes that may contain foreign objects. Both the original images and the detected candidate bounding boxes are subsequently fed into the image encoder to extract their respective visual features. In parallel, distinct prompt templates are crafted for both the original images and the candidate bounding boxes to serve as textual inputs. These prompts are then processed by the text encoder to derive textual features. The image and text encoders collaboratively project the multimodal features into a shared semantic space, facilitating the computation of similarity scores between visual and textual representations. The final detection results are determined based on these similarity scores, ensuring a robust and accurate identification of anomalous objects. Extensive experiments on our collected Railway Anomaly Dataset (RAD) demonstrate that the proposed Railway-CLIP outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods, achieving 97.25% AUROC and 92.66% F1-score, thereby validating the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed approach in real-world high-speed railway anomaly detection scenarios.
