文摘Occurrence and abundance of molecular hydrogen in natural geologic reservoirs are enigmatic,due to its various sources,diverse migration pathways and complicated biological and chemical reactions.Natural gas samples containing hydrogen from producing wells in several sedimentary basins in China were collected in this study,and gas abundances and isotopic compositions of these gases were compared with those in global petroliferous basins and deep intrusive rocks.Several geochemical indicators were suggested for identifying sources,migration and accumulation mechanisms of hydrogen in the subsurface environment.Hydrogen contents in natural gas deposits have contributions from various sources with the following high-to-low order:microbial degradation>serpentinization>deep mantle volatile release>radiation-induced water decomposition>thermal cracking of organic matter.A hydrogen-rich reservoir in Kansas,USA,is specifically analyzed to determine its formation mechanism.This study suggests that future exploration of geological hydrogen resources may focus on the igneous rock bodies with overlying dense sedimentary rocks in the continental rift systems.
文摘In this study,composite films consisting of polylactic acid(PLA),ethyl cellulose(EC),and zein were prepared by solution casting method,and their performance and application in chilled fresh meat preservation were investigated.The results showed that the three materials had satisfactory compatibility in the composite film.Addition of EC and zein effectively improved the mechanical properties,thermodynamic properties,surface hydrophilicity,oxygen permeability,and degradation properties of PLA films.When the ratio of PLA to EC was 3:7,the tensile strength and elongation at break reached maximum values of 16.6 MPa and 30.5%,respectively.Moreover,under different conditions,the composite film exhibited better degradability than the PLA film.The composite film with a 3:7 ratio of PLA to EC had the best performance,with a degradation rate of 21.75%after 84 days.Chilled fresh meat wrapped with the composite film showed significantly improved antioxidant,antibacterial,and water-holding properties.
文摘To alleviate the quality deterioration and extend the shelf life of crucian carp fillets,a bio-based active composite film integrating eugenol(EG)-loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles(MSNs)modified with caffeic acid(CA)within the zein matrix(EG/CA-MSN/Zein)was developed.This study compared the effects of EG/CA-MSN/Zein,polyethylene(PE),and zein films on the quality of fish fillets during refrigerated storage.The results showed that the EG/CA-MSN/Zein film significantly retarded the increase in pH and microbial growth.Moreover,the film had higher water-holding capacity(WHC),better texture,and color stability,as indicated by low-field nuclear magnetic resonance(LF-NMR),magnetic resonance imaging(MRI),and sensory evaluation.The EG/CA-MSN/Zein composite film extended the shelf life of crucian carp fillets by 3-4 days,highlighting its potential as an environmentally friendly and efficient packaging material for aquatic products.

文摘In order to ensure food safety,controlling foodborne pathogen contamination is of utmost importance.Growing apprehensions regarding the safety of synthetic antimicrobials,due to their adverse health effects,have prompted a search for alternative options.Plant natural products(PNPs)with antimicrobial activity are being explored as a viable alternative.Among the various antimicrobial natural products studied,plant essential oils,plant flavonoids,plant polyphenols,plant polysaccharides,and plant antimicrobial peptides have been identified as potential candidates.PNPs demonstrate a diverse array of antimicrobial mechanisms,encompassing cell wall and membrane damage,interference with genetic replication,disruption of energy metabolism,and induction of oxidative stress at the single-cell level,as well as inhibition of biofilm formation and quorum sensing at the population level.Certain PNPs have been harnessed as natural antimicrobial agents for the food preservation.The utilization of encapsulation technology proves to be an effective strategy in protecting PNPs,thereby ensuring good antimicrobial efficacy,enhanced dispersibility,and controlled release within food products.The utilization of nanoemulsions,nanoliposomes,edible packaging,electrospun nanofibers,and microcapsules formed by encapsulation has enriched the ways in which PNPs can be applied in food preservation.Although PNPs have great potential in food preservation,their widespread application in the food industry is currently constrained by factors such as production costs,safety concerns,and legal considerations.Chemical synthesis and biosynthesis pathways offer viable strategies for reducing the cost of producing PNPs,and ongoing efforts to assess safety and improve regulatory frameworks are likely to facilitate the broader adoption of PNPs in food preservation practices.This article provides an overview of the main types of PNPs with antimicrobial activity and their properties,focusing on their mechanisms of action.Additionally,it summarizes the use of PNPs in food preservation and discusses the characteristics and applications of different encapsulation technologies.Lastly,the paper briefly analyzes current limitations and proposes potential future trends for this field.
文摘BACKGROUND Low rectal cancer poses a significant surgical challenge because of its close proximity to the anal sphincter,often requiring radical resection with permanent colostomy to achieve oncological safety.Revisited rectal anatomy,advances in surgical techniques and neoadjuvant therapies have enabled the possibility of sphincter-preserving procedures,however,it is uniformly not applicable.Selecting appropriate candidates for sphincter preservation is crucial,as an illadvised approach may compromise oncological outcome or lead to poor functional outcomes.Currently there is no consensus-which clinical,anatomical,or molecular factors most accurately predict the feasibility of sphincter-preserving surgery(SPS)in this subset of patients.By identifying these predictors,the study seeks to support improved patient selection,enhance surgical planning,and ultimately contribute to better functional and oncological outcomes in patients with low rectal cancer.AIM To identify predictive factors that determine the feasibility of SPS in patients with low rectal cancer.METHODS A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed/MEDLINE databases.The search focused on various factors influencing the feasibility of SPS in low rectal cancer.These included patient-related factors,anatomical considerations,findings from different imaging modalities,advancements in diagnostic tools and techniques,and the role of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.The relevance of each factor in predicting the potential for sphincter preservation was critically analyzed and presented based on the current evidence RESULTS Multiple studies have identified a range of predictive factors influencing the feasibility of SPS in low rectal cancer.Patient-related factors include age,sex,preoperative continence status,comorbidities,and body mass index.Anatomical considerations,such as tumor distance from the anal verge,involvement of the external anal sphincter,and levator ani muscles,also play a critical role.Additionally,a favourable response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy has been associated with improved suitability for sphincter preservation.Several biomarkers,such as inflammatory markers like interleukins and C-reactive protein,as well as tumor markers like carcinoembryonic antigen,are important.Molecular markers,including BRAF and KRAS mutations and microsatellite instability status,have been linked to prognosis and may further guide decision-making regarding sphincter-preserving approaches.Artificial intelligence(AI)can further add in to select an ideal patient for sphincter preservation.CONCLUSION SPS is feasible in low rectal cancer and depends on patient factors,tumor anatomy and biology,preoperative treatment response,and biomarkers.In addition,tools and technology including AI can further help in selecting an ideal patient for long term optimal outcome.

文摘Dear Editor,This letter introduces a novel algorithm for privacy preservation designed to safeguard both the initial and real-time states of agents under complete distributed average consensus.It addresses a gap in existing privacy preservation approaches that predominantly focus on protecting the initial state,with limited consideration for privacy implications throughout the entire process.The algorithm ensures the privacy of both the initial and real-time states by introducing perturbations to the consensus process,allowing agents to freely define these perturbations themselves.Additionally,the perturbations defined by agents arbitrarily do not compromise the accuracy of the consensus result.One of the main results derived is that no agent has access to the real-time state of another agent.

文摘BACKGROUND The surgical management of rectal cancer is continuously advancing,with a current emphasis on minimising the need for a permanent stoma.Understanding the risk factors influencing sphincter preservation is crucial for guiding clinical decision-making and optimising preoperative patient evaluation.AIM To examine the risk factors influencing sphincter preservation in laparoscopic radical rectal cancer surgery.METHODS A retrospective analysis of the demographics,preoperative and intraoperative data,and pathological findings of 179 patients with rectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic radical rectal cancer surgery at our hospital between January 2022 and December 2023 was conducted.These clinical data were compared between two groups:Patients with sphincter preservation and those without,categorised as the sphincter-preserved and sphincter-unpreserved groups,respectively.RESULTS Of the 179 patients analysed,150 were in the sphincter-preserved group and 29 were in the sphincter-unpreserved group.Tumour height was significantly greater in the sphincter-preserved group compared to the sphincter-unpreserved group.Conversely,elevated levels of carcinoembryonic antigen,carbohydrate antigen 19-9,and plasma D-dimer were significantly higher in the sphincter-unpreserved group.Significant differences were also observed between the two groups in terms of place of residence,presence of colonic polyps,neoadjuvant chemotherapy,preoperative radiotherapy,mucinous adenocarcinoma,nerve invasion,and tumour height.No significant differences were observed for other parameters.Logistic regression analysis identified colonic polyps,mucinous adenocarcinoma,nerve invasion,and tumour height as independent risk factors for sphincter preser-vation.CONCLUSION Several risk factors influencing sphincter preservation in laparoscopic radical rectal cancer surgery were identified.These factors could be valuable tools for guiding clinical decision-making and optimising preoperative patient evaluations.

文摘The Yangchuling porphyry W-Mo deposit(YPWD),located in the Jiangnan porphyryskarn tungsten ore belt,is one of the most important and large-scale porphyry W-Mo deposits in South China.While previous zircon U-Pb and molybdenite Re-Os data suggest that Yangchuling WMo ore bodies formed almost simultaneously with granodiorite and monzogranitic porphyry at~150–144 Ma,their post emplacement history remains poorly understood,making their preservation status at depth uncertain.In this paper,new zircon and apatite(U-Th)/He and apatite fission track(ZHe,AHe and AFT,respectively)data of one hornfels and five intrusive rocks from a 1000-meter borehole are presented.These,together with new inverse thermal history models and previous geochronological data,help elucidate the post-diagenetic exhumation history and preservation status of the Yangchuling porphyry W-Mo deposit.In general,ZHe and AHe ages decrease gradually from the near surface downwards and have relatively little intra-sample variation,ranging from 133 to 73Ma and 67 to 25 Ma,respectively.All four granodiorites yield similar AFT ages that range from 63 to 55 Ma with mean track lengths varying from 12.2±0.7 to 12.6±0.5μm.Thermal history modelling indicates that the Yangchuling ore district experienced slow,monotonic cooling since the Cretaceous.Age-depth relationships are interpreted as recording~3.7±0.8 km of Cretaceous-recent exhumation in response to regional extension throughout South China thought to have been driven by subduction retreat of the Paleo-Pacific Plate.Comparison of estimated net exhumation and previous metallogenic depth of~4–5 km suggests that W-Mo ore bodies could still exist at depths of up to~1.3±0.8 km relative to Earth surface in the YPWD region.Preservation of the YPWD is attributed to the limited amount of regional denudation during the Late Cretaceous and Cenozoic.

文摘The aim of this investigation was to determine the optimal storage medium for testicular hypothermic transportation and identify the ideal concentration for the application of the protective agent 5-aminolevulinic acid(5-ALA).Furthermore,this study aimed to explore the underlying mechanism of the protective effects of 5-ALA.First,we collected and stored mouse testicular fragments in different media,including Hank’s balanced salt solution(HBSS;n=5),Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium/Nutrient Mixture F-12(DMEM/F12;n=5),and alpha-minimum essential medium(αMEM;n=5).Storage of testicular tissue in HBSS preserved the integrity of testicular morphology better than that in the DMEM/F12 group(P<0.05)and theαMEM group(P<0.01).Testicular fragments were subsequently placed in HBSS with various concentrations of 5-ALA(0[control],1 mmol l−1,2 mmol l−1,and 5 mmol l−1)to determine the most effective concentration of 5-ALA.The 2 mmol l−15-ALA group(n=3)presented the highest positive rate of spermatogonial stem cells compared with those in the control,1 mmol l−1,and 5 mmol l−15-ALA groups.Finally,the tissue fragments were preserved in HBSS with control(n=3)and 2 mmol l−15-ALA(n=3)under low-temperature conditions.A comparative analysis was performed against fresh testes(n=3)to elucidate the underlying mechanism of 5-ALA.Gene set enrichment analysis(GSEA)for WikiPathways revealed that the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)signaling pathway was downregulated in the 2 mmol l−15-ALA group compared with that in the control group(normalized enrichment score[NES]=−1.57,false discovery rate[FDR]=0.229,and P=0.019).In conclusion,these data suggest that using 2 mmol l−15-ALA in HBSS effectively protected the viability of spermatogonial stem cells upon hypothermic transportation.

文摘In this study,a carvacrol–allicin–anthocyanin composite film was fabricated for the preservation of postharvest blueberries and the application of freshness monitoring.In order to explore the effect of the composite film on the storage quality of postharvest blueberry fruits,18 quality and physiological indexes of postharvest blueberry fruits were analyzed.The effect of the composite film on the freshness monitoring of blueberry fruit was investigated,and the color difference of the composite film was analyzed.The results indicated that changes in nutrients and other indicators of blueberries during storage demonstrated that their preservation quality was maintained.In addition,it resulted in significant discoloration of three different packages of blueberry fruits commonly found on the market during storage.This study provides a theoretical basis for the postharvest preservation of blueberry fruits and also provides technical parameters for monitoring blueberry fruit freshness.
文摘Porous organic polymers are remarkably versatile materials with porous and carefully designed structures.They complement traditional preservation methods by overcoming their limitations and significantly extending the shelf life of preserved products.Notably,porous hollow nanospheres(PHNs),with their unique hollow structures capable of adsorbing and releasing organic molecules,have garnered considerable attention in food preservation.However,most PHNs are challenging to synthesize in one step,and PHNs are usually in powder form,which makes it challenging to apply them directly.In this study,we successfully synthesized PHNs in one step using the Friedel–Crafts reaction.The PHNs,adsorbed with hexanal molecules,were then embedded in polymer fibers to create composites via electrospinning.The preservation effect of the composite nanofiber membranes was investigated by determining the changes in appearance,weight,peel hardness,and pulp sugar content of three fruits,namely strawberries,bananas,and kumquats,after several days of storage.In comparison to pure poly(ε-caprolactone)fiber membranes,PHNs containing hexanal molecules slowed down the oxidative deterioration process and enhanced the quality and flavor of preserved fruits.This research presents innovative approaches for using porous organic polymers in food preservation and serves as a valuable reference for the development of future food packaging materials.

文摘BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis of the femoral head(ONFH)is a prevalent clinical condition,and as the affected population becomes younger and more widespread,an increasing number of patients prefer to retain their own hip joints.In comparison to joint replacement and hip-preserving surgeries,conservative hip preservation treatment is gaining more recognition from both clinicians and patients.AIM To observe the clinical efficacy and influencing factors of conservative hip preservation treatment for patients with ONFH.METHODS A total of 73 patients(119 hips)were included,and patients were grouped based on Association Research Circulation Osseous(ARCO)stage,Japanese Investigation Committee(JIC)classification,lesion size,and collapse degree.The clinical efficacy of conservative hip preservation treatment was evaluated from two aspects:Radiological progression and clinical functional scores[Harris Hip Score,Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index(WOMAC),international Hip Outcome Tool 12(iHOT-12),and visual analogue scale(VAS)].Analyzing the success rate of conservative hip preservation based on conversion to total hip arthroplasty or hip preservation surgery.RESULTS In this retrospective cohort study,we retrospectively analyzed 73 patients(119 hips)with an average follow-up time of 53.58±26.80(18-129)months.The overall success rate of hip preservation is 90.76%.The success rates of hip preservation in ARCO I-II,IIIa,and IIIb were 97.67%,91.53%,and 70.59%,respectively(P<0.05).The success rates of hip preservation for JIC A-B,C1,and C2 were 93.37%,92.59%,and 77.78%,respectively(P<0.05).The success rates of hip preservation with collapse degree≤2 mm and>2 mm were 94.12%and 70.59%,respectively(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the success rate of hip preservation between different lesion sizes.In terms of clinical function,the Harris Hip Score,WOMAC,iHOT-12,and VAS scores at the last follow-up were significantly better than before treatment(P<0.05).The VAS scores of ARCO IIIa and IIIb were significantly worse than those of ARCO I and II(P<0.05).The iHOT-12,WOMAC,and VAS scores were significantly better with the lesion size<15%(P<0.05).In terms of radiological results,there was significant progress in ARCO staging and collapse degree after conservative hip preservation treatment,but there was no significant difference in JIC classification and lesion size.CONCLUSION Conservative hip preservation treatment can effectively treat ONFH,prevent the progression of the necrosis,and significantly improve the clinical function of patients.The radiological staging and lesion size at the initial visit may help determine the prognosis of conservative hip preservation treatment.

文摘In recent years,drilling data from wells Pengshen 10,Heshen 9,Tongshen 17 and Zhengyang 1 in the Sichuan Basin have confirmed the presence of a set of porous reef-beach limestone reservoirs in the Upper Permian Changxing Formation,which breaks the traditional view that deep carbonate oil and gas are only distributed in porous dolomite reservoirs and karst fracture-cavity limestone reservoirs.Through core and thin section observations,geochemical analysis,and well-seismic based reservoir identification and tracking,the study on formation mechanism of pores in deep reef-beach limestone reservoirs is carried out,this study provides insights in four aspects.(1)Porous reef-beach limestone reservoirs are developed in the Changxing Formation in deep-buried layers.The reservoir space is composed of intergranular pores,framework pores,intra-fossil pores,moldic pores and dissolution pores,which are formed in depositional and epigenetic environments.(2)The intermittently distributed porous reef-beach complexes are surrounded by relatively dense micrite limestone,which leads to the formation of local abnormal high-pressure inside the reef-beach complexes with the temperature increased.(3)The floor of the Changxing Formation reservoir is composed with interbedded tight mudstone and limestone of the Upper Permian Wujiaping Formation,and the roof is the tight micrite limestone interbedded with mudstone of the first member of Lower Triassic Feixianguan Formation.Under the clamping of dense roof and floor,the abnormal high-pressure in the Changxing Formation is formed.Abnormal high-pressure(overpressured compartment)is the key to maintain the pores formed in the depositional and epigenetic environments in deep-buried layers.(4)Based on the identification of roof,floor and reef-beach complexes,the favorable reef-beach limestone reservoir distribution area of 10.3×10^(4) km^(2) is predicted by well-seismic integration.These insights lay the theoretical foundation for the development of deep porous limestone reservoirs,expand the new field of exploration of deep-buried limestone reservoirs in the Sichuan Basin.
