Semen analysis results （volume, sperm count, motility, and morphology） were the primary outcomes. An electronic search to collect the data was conducted using the Medline/PubMed, SJU discover, and Google Scholar databases. We searched articles published from 2010 to August 2015, i.e., after the publication of the 2010 WHO manual. We included only those studies that reported the actual semen parameters of adult infertile men diagnosed with clinical varicocele and contained a control group of either fertile men or normozoospermic men who were not diagnosed with varicocele. Ten studies were included in the meta-analysis, involving 1232 men. Varicocele was associated with reduced sperm count （mean difference： -44.48 x 106 ml-1; 95% Ch -61.45, -27.51 x 106 ml-1; P〈 0.001）, motility （mean difference： -26.67%; 95% Ch -34.27, -19.08; P 〈 0.001）, and morphology （mean difference： -19.68%; 95% Ch -29.28, -10.07; P 〈 0.001） but not semen volume （mean difference： -0.23 ml; 95% CI： -0.64, 0.17）. Subgroup analyses indicated that the magnitude of effect was influenced by control subtype but not WHO laboratory manual edition used for semen assessment. We conclude that varicocele is a significant risk factor that negatively affects semen quality, but the observed pooled effect size on semen parameters does not seem to be affected by the WHO laboratory manual edition. Given most of the studies published after 2010 still utilized the 1999 manual for semen analysis, further research is required to fully understand the clinical implication of the 2010 WHO laboratory manual on the association between varicocele and semen parameters.展开更多

And a framework for ODSS is designed. The framework has three components： infrastructure, decision-making process and decision execution process. Infrastructure is responsible to transfer data and information. Decision-making process is the ODSS＇s soul to support decision-making. Decision execution process is to evaluate and execute decision results derived from decision-making process. The framework presents a kind of logic architecture. An example is given to verify and analyze the framework. The analysis shows that the framework has practical values, and has also reference values for understanding ODSS and for theoretical studies.展开更多

Yet understanding of ecological process...Spatial organization of multiple plant species that appears as a non-random distribution of vegetative patches is one of the mostly observed spatial patterns in arid ecosystems. Yet understanding of ecological processes allowing this spatial pattern to emerge through interspecific interactions is still lacking. With a proposed conceptual model involving interspecific trade-offs between species competitive ability and colonization ability, we have argued that within patch abundance dynamics regulated by the mechanisms of competition are strongly influenced by the between patches colonization dynamics that are maintained via this trade-offs and it holds a positive, intraspecific occupancy-abundance relationship, in which increased patch occupancy increases species density within inhabiting patches. In a constant environment, while local abundance dynamics approach toward a stable equilibrium point, a fixed spatial arrangement of species can be retained through this coupled dynamics. However, in fluctuating environments where existence of such stable equilibriums is highly uncertain, it may involve continuous transitions from one community state to another as species re-organized themselves over space through the rapid changes in local species abundances. While some of the inhabiting patches are destroyed exogenously or endogenously, or species responses to increasing environmental fluctuations vary increasingly with time, discontinuous transitions into an abrupt, irreversible state of the community dynamics may occur, as with this effect the inherent positive relationship between occupancy and abundance of species is no longer maintained.展开更多

Based on the designed system model for TV media organization structure, the relations among the main factors of the system constitution, missions, organizing decision entity, and carrying bodies were analyzed. By means of applying multi-objective decision method and complex control system theory, and combining the integration model of TV media organization structure, the basic model was concluded and the corresponding parameters were designed. The current organization process of TV media is analyzed by this model, which comes to the adaptability appearance with different parameters. The results indicate that the model can estimate current TV media organization structure for the chain appearance of communications and the correlation between platforms and policy-making agencies.展开更多

Facing the increasing trend of cancer incidence and mortality, China issued and implemented ＂three-early（early prevention, early diagnosis and early treatment）＂ national cancer prevention plan. As the main body and dependence of social governance, non-governmental organizations（NGOs） take over the role of government in the field of cancer prevention and treatment. American Cancer Society（ACS） made a research on cancer NGOs and civil society in cancer control and found that cancer NGOs in developing countries mobilize civil society to work together and advocate governments in their countries to develop policies to address the growing cancer burden. Union for International Cancer Control（UICC）, Cancer Council Australia（CCA）, and Malaysian cancer NGOs are the representatives of cancer NGOs in promoting cancer control. Selecting Chinese Anti-Cancer Association（CACA） as an example in China, this article is to investigate how NGOs undertake systematic cancer prevention work in China. By conducting real case study, we found that, as a NGO, CACA plays a significant role in intensifying the leading role of government in cancer control, optimizing cancer outcomes, decreasing cancer incidence and mortality rates and improving public health.展开更多

Companies are not limited to physical locatio ns for providing products and services. Networked information systems are allowi ng companies to coordinate their geographically distributed capabilities as virt ual organizations. In order for organizations to succeed, they must be able to r espond with agility in a geographically dispersed environment. The core for a vi rtual organization to increase the utilization rate of resources to the maxi mum and to make full use of the transient market opportunities lies in how to br ing the potential of information technology into play. Based on the philosophy o f agile manufacturing, this paper analyses the basic concepts and connotation of Virtual Organization Information systems(VOIS). VOIS is an information system composed of some independent information subsystems that are autonomous, collab orative and belong to umpty organizations respectively. VOIS support the operati on of virtual organization, and automate the information flow across organizatio nal boundaries. Such systems have capabilities as rapid construction, quick oper ation, and agile reengineering and swift adaptability. Differences between VOIS and traditional enterprise information systems are analyzed. On the basis of ana lyzing the structure of VOIS, an abstract hierarchical structure of VOIS is prop osed using object-oriented method. Reengineering ideology and methods of VOIS a re also explored in light of the three layers structure.展开更多

Though many theories are tentatively proposed to analyze complex systems, we still lack a rigorous theory on them. Complex systems possess various degrees of freedom, which means that they should exhibit all kinds of structures. However, complex systems often show similar patterns and structures. Then the question arises why such similar structures appear in all kinds of complex systems. The paper outlines a theory on freedom degree compression and the existence of hierarchical self-organization for all complex systems is found. It is freedom degree compression and hierarchical self-organization that are responsible for the existence of these similar patterns or structures observed in the complex systems.展开更多

Because a shortage of organ donation is a serious social issue in Japan, various solutions to the issue have been considered. Although it was believed that the most critical factor in the organ shortage was the absence of a well-established social system, no prior studies attempted to analyze the issue from the perspective of the mechanisms and organizational behaviors. To identify common success factors of increasing organ donation, we conducted a qualitative survey in 5 countries promoting organ donations on a national level and increasing the number of organ donations. We found several important common factors: 1) to change from an explicit consent system to a presumed consent system with establishment of an appropriate in-hospital system, 2) to increase the level of job satisfaction of healthcare professionals and help them generating better results, 3) to demonstrate managements’ leadership for all staff to realize the importance of organ donations, 4) to establish an environment where medical professionals engaged in organ donations can appreciate autonomous working styles, the recognition of the importance of the work. It is suggested that these successful factors are introduced into Japan with long-, mid-term strategy to enhance organ donation.展开更多

It is assumed that water flow in fracture network is laminar, and the dissolution rate process can be described with an empirical equation, The results suggest that a karst system is a self-organization system. It can spontaneously create higher hierarchical level out of a relative homogeneous structure through amplifying the microscopic heterogeneity of initial flow field. Under given boundary conditions, a karst system with initial fracture network of varied hierarchical levels is likely to have stronger tendency to lead to a typical karst system featuring conduit passages than a system with initial network of unique hierarchical level. Through merging local flow systems, a karst system concentrates the limited flow into a few pathways to promote the formation of higher hierarchical level.展开更多

文摘Simultaneous uranium recovery,organic pollutant degradation,and electricity generation were achieved by employing a self-driven photoelectrochemical(PEC)system equipped with a modified carbon felt(MCF)cathode for the treatment of complex radioactive wastewater.The MCF cathode was synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method,which modified the surface functional groups on carbon felt(CF)with enhanced active site availability and facilitated interfacial charge transfer,thus improving its UO_(2)^(2+)adsorption and reduction capacities.The self-driven PEC system with the MCF cathode demonstrated remarkable removal efficiencies and rate constants(k)for UO_(2)^(2+)(98.8%and 0.111 min^(−1))and chlortetracycline hydrochloride(CTC)(92.9%and 0.028 min^(−1))within 40 min and 90 min,respectively,coupled with an excellent power output of 1.41 mW/cm^(2).Additionally,the system with the MCF cathode exhibited superior removal performance for UO_(2)^(2+)and CTC in treating model complex wastewater under wide conditions.Even under natural sunlight,the system achieved over 80%removal efficiency for both UO_(2)^(2+)and CTC.Moreover,the uranium immobilized on the MCF cathode was mainly reduced to U(Ⅳ)species(90.51%),and performance remained robust over ten operational cycles.The cathode surface modification strategy and its application in the system provide a cost-effective,multi-functional and high-efficiency approach to controlling nuclides and organic pollutants in complex radioactive wastewater.

文摘Agricultural ecosystems play a pivotal role in global carbon(C)sequestration efforts.Microbial C use efficiency(CUE)serves as a comprehensive metric that reflects the balance between microbial contributions to the accumulation and decomposition of soil organic C.However,the overall distribution patterns and underlying drivers of microbial CUE at the national scale remain unclear.Herein,data from 209 paired samples from 55 studies were analyzed to assess the distribution patterns and influencing factors of microbial CUE based on enzyme stoichiometry(CUE_(ST))in agricultural ecosystems across China.Results revealed that farmlands exhibited the highest CUE_(ST)value(mean=0.51),exceeding those of grasslands(0.46)and forests(0.44).Contrasting patterns of CUE_(ST)regulation were observed across land-use types,with farmlands showing significant(P<0.001)positive relationships of CUE_(ST)with phosphorus vs.nitrogen(N/P)limitation index,while grasslands and forests demonstrated inverse(P<0.05)relationships of CUE_(ST)with C limitation index.Nutrient stoichiometry emerged as the dominant driver of CUE_(ST),with enzyme ratios and mean annual precipitation playing secondary roles.Moreover,land management practices,including fertilization,grazing,and tillage,as well as land-use transition,significantly influenced microbial CUE_(ST)by potentially altering nutrient availability and soil properties;notably,water addition in grasslands had particularly positive effects.These findings provide a critical foundation for harnessing microbial CUE in agriculture and may inform scalable strategies to enhance soil C sequestration and climate-smart land management.

文摘Soil aggregation is a fundamental process that influences various soil properties,including structure,porosity,water infiltration,and resistance to erosion.In the Caatinga biome,preserving the soil's physical quality is crucial to the development of sustainable agriculture.In this biome,soil aggregation is critical due to the susceptibility of the semi-arid area to erosion and degradation.This study aims to evaluate the impact of converting native vegetation(NV;dense Caatinga)into two grasslands and two integrated livestock-forestry(ILF)systems on soil organic carbon(SOC)content and soil physical quality through water-stable aggregate(WSA)classes(macroaggregates,mesoaggregates,and microaggregates)and aggregation indices(mean weight diameter(MWD),geometric mean diameter(GMD),and aggregate stability index(ASI)).Soil samples were collected at 0–10,10–20,20–30,30–50,50–70,and 70–100 cm layers in Nossa Senhora da Glória Municipality,Sergipe State,Brazil.The land use systems analyzed in this study included NV,an ILF system with Gliricidia(Gliricidia sepium(Jacq.)Kunth ex Walp.)+Urochloa(Urochloa decumbens(Stapf)R.D.Webster)under no-tillage(ILFug),another ILF system with Gliricidia+forage cactus(Opuntia cochenillifera(Linnaeus)Miller)under convention tillage(ILFcg),improved pasture(ImpP),and degraded pasture(DegP).Almost all parameters studied were significantly correlated with SOC content,demonstrating that soil organic matter(SOM)is a primary agent in binding soil particles together,influencing the variation in WSA and aggregation indices.The ImpP and DegP exhibited similar SOC content;however,the ImpP showed a higher ASI and increased amount of macroaggregates(particle diameter>2.000 mm).The highest SOC content was found in the ILFug system across the soil profile.There was a predominance of macroaggregates in topsoil(0–10 cm layer)regardless of land use,with the highest proportion found in NV(78.7%);while the lowest was observed in the ILFcg system(59.0%).The ILFug system also showed the greatest ASI at almost all soil layers;the exception was the 0–10 and 50–70 cm layers,where the NV had the highest values of 89.1%and 90.5%,respectively.This study demonstrates that implementing integrated systems under no-tillage as a nature-based solution can enhance SOC content and stability of soil aggregates in semi-arid environments.

文摘Advanced oxidation processes(AOPs)that utilize the highly potent hydroxyl radical(·OH)are a cornerstone of modern environmental remediation.Among these,the Fenton reaction is renowned for its effectiveness[1].However,its practical application has been persistently hampered by two fundamental constraints:a strict reliance on acidic conditions(typically pH 2-4)and the need to be continuously supplied,costly externally generated hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))[2-4].
文摘This study investigated the effects of varicocele on semen parameters in infertile men based on the new 2010 World Health Organization laboratory manual for the examination of human semen. Semen analysis results （volume, sperm count, motility, and morphology） were the primary outcomes. An electronic search to collect the data was conducted using the Medline/PubMed, SJU discover, and Google Scholar databases. We searched articles published from 2010 to August 2015, i.e., after the publication of the 2010 WHO manual. We included only those studies that reported the actual semen parameters of adult infertile men diagnosed with clinical varicocele and contained a control group of either fertile men or normozoospermic men who were not diagnosed with varicocele. Ten studies were included in the meta-analysis, involving 1232 men. Varicocele was associated with reduced sperm count （mean difference： -44.48 x 106 ml-1; 95% Ch -61.45, -27.51 x 106 ml-1; P〈 0.001）, motility （mean difference： -26.67%; 95% Ch -34.27, -19.08; P 〈 0.001）, and morphology （mean difference： -19.68%; 95% Ch -29.28, -10.07; P 〈 0.001） but not semen volume （mean difference： -0.23 ml; 95% CI： -0.64, 0.17）. Subgroup analyses indicated that the magnitude of effect was influenced by control subtype but not WHO laboratory manual edition used for semen assessment. We conclude that varicocele is a significant risk factor that negatively affects semen quality, but the observed pooled effect size on semen parameters does not seem to be affected by the WHO laboratory manual edition. Given most of the studies published after 2010 still utilized the 1999 manual for semen analysis, further research is required to fully understand the clinical implication of the 2010 WHO laboratory manual on the association between varicocele and semen parameters.

文摘Spatial organization of multiple plant species that appears as a non-random distribution of vegetative patches is one of the mostly observed spatial patterns in arid ecosystems. Yet understanding of ecological processes allowing this spatial pattern to emerge through interspecific interactions is still lacking. With a proposed conceptual model involving interspecific trade-offs between species competitive ability and colonization ability, we have argued that within patch abundance dynamics regulated by the mechanisms of competition are strongly influenced by the between patches colonization dynamics that are maintained via this trade-offs and it holds a positive, intraspecific occupancy-abundance relationship, in which increased patch occupancy increases species density within inhabiting patches. In a constant environment, while local abundance dynamics approach toward a stable equilibrium point, a fixed spatial arrangement of species can be retained through this coupled dynamics. However, in fluctuating environments where existence of such stable equilibriums is highly uncertain, it may involve continuous transitions from one community state to another as species re-organized themselves over space through the rapid changes in local species abundances. While some of the inhabiting patches are destroyed exogenously or endogenously, or species responses to increasing environmental fluctuations vary increasingly with time, discontinuous transitions into an abrupt, irreversible state of the community dynamics may occur, as with this effect the inherent positive relationship between occupancy and abundance of species is no longer maintained.
文摘To resolve the control adaptability problem of TV media in complex competitive environment, a control system model of TV media organization structure was designed. Based on the designed system model for TV media organization structure, the relations among the main factors of the system constitution, missions, organizing decision entity, and carrying bodies were analyzed. By means of applying multi-objective decision method and complex control system theory, and combining the integration model of TV media organization structure, the basic model was concluded and the corresponding parameters were designed. The current organization process of TV media is analyzed by this model, which comes to the adaptability appearance with different parameters. The results indicate that the model can estimate current TV media organization structure for the chain appearance of communications and the correlation between platforms and policy-making agencies.
文摘Cancer has become the first leading cause of death in the world, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Facing the increasing trend of cancer incidence and mortality, China issued and implemented ＂three-early（early prevention, early diagnosis and early treatment）＂ national cancer prevention plan. As the main body and dependence of social governance, non-governmental organizations（NGOs） take over the role of government in the field of cancer prevention and treatment. American Cancer Society（ACS） made a research on cancer NGOs and civil society in cancer control and found that cancer NGOs in developing countries mobilize civil society to work together and advocate governments in their countries to develop policies to address the growing cancer burden. Union for International Cancer Control（UICC）, Cancer Council Australia（CCA）, and Malaysian cancer NGOs are the representatives of cancer NGOs in promoting cancer control. Selecting Chinese Anti-Cancer Association（CACA） as an example in China, this article is to investigate how NGOs undertake systematic cancer prevention work in China. By conducting real case study, we found that, as a NGO, CACA plays a significant role in intensifying the leading role of government in cancer control, optimizing cancer outcomes, decreasing cancer incidence and mortality rates and improving public health.
文摘The classification of central nervous system(CNS)glioma went through a sequence of developments,between 2006 and 2021,started with only histological approach then has been aided with a major emphasis on molecular signatures in the 4^(th) and 5^(th) editions of the World Health Organization(WHO).The recent reformation in the 5th edition of the WHO classification has focused more on the molecularly defined entities with better characterized natural histories as well as new tumor types and subtypes in the adult and pediatric populations.These new subclassified entities have been incorporated in the 5^(th) edition after the continuous exploration of new genomic,epigenomic and transcriptomic discovery.Indeed,the current guidelines of 2021 WHO classification of CNS tumors and European Association of Neuro-Oncology(EANO)exploited the molecular signatures in the diagnostic approach of CNS gliomas.Our current review presents a practical diagnostic approach for diffuse CNS gliomas and circumscribed astrocytomas using histomolecular criteria adopted by the recent WHO classification.We also describe the treatment strategies for these tumors based on EANO guidelines.
文摘It is now possible to organize globally while worki ng locally: Information technologies like e-mail, the Internet, and video confere ncing to the desktop permit tight coordination of geographically dispersed worke rs across time zones and cultures. Companies are not limited to physical locatio ns for providing products and services. Networked information systems are allowi ng companies to coordinate their geographically distributed capabilities as virt ual organizations. In order for organizations to succeed, they must be able to r espond with agility in a geographically dispersed environment. The core for a vi rtual organization to increase the utilization rate of resources to the maxi mum and to make full use of the transient market opportunities lies in how to br ing the potential of information technology into play. Based on the philosophy o f agile manufacturing, this paper analyses the basic concepts and connotation of Virtual Organization Information systems(VOIS). VOIS is an information system composed of some independent information subsystems that are autonomous, collab orative and belong to umpty organizations respectively. VOIS support the operati on of virtual organization, and automate the information flow across organizatio nal boundaries. Such systems have capabilities as rapid construction, quick oper ation, and agile reengineering and swift adaptability. Differences between VOIS and traditional enterprise information systems are analyzed. On the basis of ana lyzing the structure of VOIS, an abstract hierarchical structure of VOIS is prop osed using object-oriented method. Reengineering ideology and methods of VOIS a re also explored in light of the three layers structure.

文摘Researches on organization and structure in complex systems are academic and industrial fronts in modern sciences. Though many theories are tentatively proposed to analyze complex systems, we still lack a rigorous theory on them. Complex systems possess various degrees of freedom, which means that they should exhibit all kinds of structures. However, complex systems often show similar patterns and structures. Then the question arises why such similar structures appear in all kinds of complex systems. The paper outlines a theory on freedom degree compression and the existence of hierarchical self-organization for all complex systems is found. It is freedom degree compression and hierarchical self-organization that are responsible for the existence of these similar patterns or structures observed in the complex systems.
文摘Deceased organ donation is much less prominent in Japan than it is in Western and other Asian countries. Because a shortage of organ donation is a serious social issue in Japan, various solutions to the issue have been considered. Although it was believed that the most critical factor in the organ shortage was the absence of a well-established social system, no prior studies attempted to analyze the issue from the perspective of the mechanisms and organizational behaviors. To identify common success factors of increasing organ donation, we conducted a qualitative survey in 5 countries promoting organ donations on a national level and increasing the number of organ donations. We found several important common factors: 1) to change from an explicit consent system to a presumed consent system with establishment of an appropriate in-hospital system, 2) to increase the level of job satisfaction of healthcare professionals and help them generating better results, 3) to demonstrate managements’ leadership for all staff to realize the importance of organ donations, 4) to establish an environment where medical professionals engaged in organ donations can appreciate autonomous working styles, the recognition of the importance of the work. It is suggested that these successful factors are introduced into Japan with long-, mid-term strategy to enhance organ donation.
文摘Some investigations on the early organization of karst system are carried out through modeling the dissolution evolution processes of stochastic fracture networks in carbonate rock. It is assumed that water flow in fracture network is laminar, and the dissolution rate process can be described with an empirical equation, The results suggest that a karst system is a self-organization system. It can spontaneously create higher hierarchical level out of a relative homogeneous structure through amplifying the microscopic heterogeneity of initial flow field. Under given boundary conditions, a karst system with initial fracture network of varied hierarchical levels is likely to have stronger tendency to lead to a typical karst system featuring conduit passages than a system with initial network of unique hierarchical level. Through merging local flow systems, a karst system concentrates the limited flow into a few pathways to promote the formation of higher hierarchical level.
