Methods: The study was conducted between January 2024 and January 2025, involving 60 healthcare workers who were randomly assigned to groups. The control group (n = 30) received conventional occupational protective nursing care, while the observation group underwent multidimensional protective nursing interventions. Results: Following intervention, the observation group demonstrated significantly higher scores than the control group in knowledge of hydrofluoric acid occupational exposure, occupational exposure risk perception, and protective skill operation (p < 0.05). Emergency response capability scores and protective behavior implementation scores were also higher in the observation group (p < 0.05). Compared to the control group, the observation group exhibited higher occupational health satisfaction rates and lower occupational exposure incidence rates (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Multidimensional protective nursing interventions effectively enhance dental healthcare personnel’s awareness and protective capabilities regarding hydrofluoric acid occupational exposure, improve compliance with protective measures, and significantly reduce occupational exposure risks. This approach warrants promotion and application in occupational protective nursing interventions within dental departments.展开更多

The control group (n = 30) received conventional occupational protective nursing care, while the observation group underwent multidimensional protective nursing interventions. Results: Following intervention, the observation group demonstrated significantly higher scores than the control group in knowledge of hydrofluoric acid occupational exposure, occupational exposure risk perception, and protective skill operation (p < 0.05). Emergency response capability scores and protective behavior implementation scores were also higher in the observation group (p < 0.05). Compared to the control group, the observation group exhibited higher occupational health satisfaction rates and lower occupational exposure incidence rates (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Multidimensional protective nursing interventions effectively enhance dental healthcare personnel’s awareness and protective capabilities regarding hydrofluoric acid occupational exposure, improve compliance with protective measures, and significantly reduce occupational exposure risks. This approach warrants promotion and application in occupational protective nursing interventions within dental departments.

文摘BACKGROUND:Hemiplegia,a prevalent stroke-related condition,is often studied for motor dysfunction;however,spasticity remains under-researched.Abnormal muscle tone significantly hinders hemiplegic patients’walking recovery.OBJECTIVE:To determine whether early suspension-protected training with a personal assistant machine for stroke patients enhances walking ability and prevents muscle spasms.METHODS:Thirty-two early-stage stroke patients from Shenzhen University General Hospital and the China Rehabilitation Research Center were randomly assigned to the experimental group(n=16)and the control group(n=16).Both groups underwent 4 weeks of gait training under the suspension protection system for 30 minutes daily,5 days a week.The experimental group used the personal assistant machine during training.Three-dimensional gait analysis(using the Cortex motion capture system),Brunnstrom staging,Fugl-Meyer Assessment for lower limb motor function,Fugl-Meyer balance function,and the modified Ashworth Scale were evaluated within 1 week before the intervention and after 4 weeks of intervention.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After the 4-week intervention,all outcome measures showed significant changes in each group.The experimental group had a small but significant increase in the modified Ashworth Scale score(P<0.05,d=|0.15|),while the control group had a large significant increase(P<0.05,d=|1.48|).The experimental group demonstrated greater improvements in walking speed(16.5 to 38.44 cm/s,P<0.05,d=|4.01|),step frequency(46.44 to 64.94 steps/min,P<0.05,d=|2.32|),stride length(15.50 to 29.81 cm,P<0.05,d=|3.44|),and peak hip and knee flexion(d=|1.82|to|2.17|).After treatment,the experimental group showed significantly greater improvements than the control group in walking speed(38.44 vs.26.63 cm/s,P<0.05,d=|2.75|),stride length,peak hip and knee flexion(d=|1.31|to|1.45|),step frequency(64.94 vs.59.38 steps/min,P<0.05,d=|0.85|),and a reduced support phase(bilateral:24.31%vs.28.38%,P<0.05,d=|0.88|;non-paretic:66.19%vs.70.13%,P<0.05,d=|0.94|).For early hemiplegia,personal assistant machine-assisted gait training under the suspension protection system helps establish a correct gait pattern,prevents muscle spasms,and improves motor function.

文摘Objective Frailty is becoming increasingly common among aging adults.Frailty transitionis shaped by biological,social,psychological,and environmental factors.This study investigated combined effects of protective factors on frailty transition by constructing a Protection Index(PI)to guide targeted interventions.Methods Data were extracted from the 4th Sample Survey of the Aged Population in Urban and Rural China,including baseline(2017)and follow-up(2019)surveys.Frailty was assessed using the Frailty Index(FI),whereas the PI measured protective factors.Frailty transitions over 2 years were analyzed prospectively.Pearson’s correlation examined the relationship between FI and PI,and logistic regression assessed the effects of PI on frailty transitions.Results This study included 9,093 older adults.FI values increased with age and were higher in women,whereas PI values decreased with age and were higher in men.Over 2 years,56.2%of the participants showed a stable frailty status,14.2%improved,and 29.6%worsened.Negative transitions were more common than positive transitions,with transitions occurring most frequently between adjacent states.The PI was moderately negatively correlated with the FI(r=−0.349,P<0.001).A higher PI was associated with a lower risk of negative transitions among robust and prefrail individuals(OR=0.989,0.981,both P<0.05),but showed no significant effect among those with existing frailty.Conclusion Negative frailty transitions were more common with advancing age.Enhancing PI may help prevent negative frailty transitions among robust and pre-frail older adults,underscoring the value of early interventions.

文摘It is essential to understand how adaptation needs and options differ among stakeholders in protected areas(PAs)to effectively implement climate change(CC)adaptation strategies.Using the Qiangtang PA in Xizang as a case study,this research examines CC adaptation needs and options from the perspectives of stakeholders across multiple administrative levels,including provincial,prefectural,county authorities,73 protection stations,and 13364 pastoralists residing within the PA.The findings show that stakeholders at the provincial level,as well as those from the Ali and Naqu prefectures and six counties,place greater emphasis on institutional and resource-related needs than on other categories(attention score:7.0-9.3 vs.5.0-7.0).In contrast,stakeholders from the 73 protection stations prioritize technological and capacity-building needs more strongly than other types(attention score:8.0-9.0 vs.4.0-8.0).The 13364 pastoralists assign the highest importance to social needs relative to other categories(attention score:9.0-9.5 vs.3.0-8.0).Most of the eight existing protection measures were found to indirectly support broader climate adaptation efforts.In particular,protective actions addressing fire,pests,and weather-related disasters can be classified as autonomous adaptation,while other measures generate outcomes that enhance adaptation capacity under specific conditions.Adaptation options,grouped into three main types and 13 subcategories,differ across stakeholder groups,although substantial overlap exists between these options and current protective actions,including ecosystem based adaptation strategies,adaptation-related practices,autonomous adaptation measures,and emergency interventions.Overall,these findings highlight the critical role of all stakeholders-especially staff from the 73 protection stations and the 13364 pastoralists-in the effective implementation of adaptation actions within the PA.

文摘Lithium metal is a promising anode material for high-energy-density batteries;however,its practical applications are significantly hindered by unstable lithium deposition and dendrite growth at the solid electrolyte interface.Functional protective coatings on lithium metal surfaces offer a viable solution to these challenges.Herein,an innovative adaptive protective layer for lithium metal anodes based on a thiourea H-bonded supramolecular polymer is developed for the first time.With dense thiourea H-bonding,the lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide(Li TFSI)incorporated poly(ether-thiourea)protective layer shows strong adhesion to the lithium metal surface and good adaptive properties.The unique viscoelastic and flow characteristics of the poly(ether-thiourea)coating facilitate uniform Li⁺flux,effectively suppressing dendrite formation at the solid electrolyte interface.Furthermore,this innovative polymer integrates in situ generated compounds,such as Li3N and Li_(2)O,significantly enhancing interfacial stability.A comprehensive analysis involving X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,scanning electron microscopy,X-ray tomography,and COMSOL simulations elucidates the beneficial effects of the adaptive coating.Enhanced performances in Li||Cu,Li||Li,Li||LiFePO_(4),and Li||S cells demonstrate the effectiveness of the poly(ether-thiourea)coating and its undeniable capability to improve lithium deposition and cycling stability.This study highlights a promising new candidate for developing supramolecular materials capable of stabilizing lithium metal anodes.

文摘Protective hardware is essential for mitigating damage caused by unavoidable falls in humanoid robots.Despite notable progress in fall protection hardware,the theoretical foundation for modeling and the feasibility of conducting full-scale fall experiments on robots or their surrogates remain somewhat limited.This paper proposes a method for optimizing the thickness of Expandable Polyethylene(EPE),which is used as back protection for the Chubao humanoid robot,based on small-scale impact test data to predict full-scale behavior.The optimal thickness is defined as a balance between compact design and protective effectiveness.An equivalent impact model characterized by four parameters:contact area S,mass m,fall height h,and cushioning material thickness d is introduced to describe impact conditions.The relationship between the peak impact acceleration ap and material thickness d,which forms the core of the method and gives rise to the name AP-D,is analyzed through their plotted curves.After introducing three characteristic parameters and two correction fac-tors,the relationship among the aforementioned variables is derived.Subsequently,both the optimal thickness do and its corresponding peak impact acceleration aop are predicted via nonlinear and linear regression models.Finally,the accuracy and effectiveness of the theoretically derived optimal thickness are validated on both a dummy and the actual robot.With the cushioning material applied,the peak chest acceleration is reduced to 41.57g for the dummy and 32.08g for the robot.

文摘Network topology obfuscation is a technique aimed at protecting critical nodes and links from disruptions such as Link Flooding Attack(LFA).Currently,there are limited topology obfuscation methods for protecting critical nodes,and the existing approaches mainly achieve obfuscation by extensivelymodifying network links,resulting in high costs.To address this issue,this paper proposes a low-cost network topology obfuscation method dedicated to critical node protection,with its core innovation lying in a lightweight obfuscation architecture based on Fake Node Clusters(FNCs).Firstly,the protected network is modeled as an undirected graph,and an adjacency matrix is constructed to quantify the network scale and structural characteristics.Then,a fake node cluster generation algorithm is designed to construct an FNC adapted to the target network.Finally,a heuristic obfuscated topology generation algorithm is proposed.By optimizing the deployment positions of Fake Nodes Clusters(FNCs)in the protected network,this algorithm effectively reduces the number of FNCs required to generate the obfuscated topology,further lowering the obfuscation cost.Extensive experiments were conducted on the public Topology Zoo dataset,categorizing network topologies by node count into small-scale([0,50)),medium-scale([50,100)),and large-scale([100,200))groups.The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves excellent obfuscation performance,reducing the critical node recognition rate to 0%.Compared to the typical method,EigenObfu,the proposed approach also reduces obfuscation costs by an average of 97.9%,99.6%,and 99.3%for small,medium,and large-scale networks,respectively.

文摘The formation of Zn dendrites and the occurrence of the hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)at Zn anodes represent two major obstacles that significantly impede the widespread commercialization of aqueous Zn-ion batteries.In this work,we propose sorbitan oleate(Span 80)as a novel amphiphilic electrolyte additive for 2 mol/L ZnSO_(4),demonstrating multifunctional performance.The unique ultra-long hydrophobic carbon chains of Span 80 effectively reduce free water molecules at the Zn anode-electrolyte interface,forming a robust hydrophobic interfacial layer that significantly suppresses HER and corrosion reactions.Simultaneously,carbon chains can enhance the desolvation effect of[Zn(H_(2)O)_(6)]^(2+),leading to improve rate performance.Additionally,the hydrophilic sorbitan groups in Span 80 selectively adsorb onto active sites of the Zn anode,promoting uniform Zn^(2+)deposition and suppressing dendrite growth.The optimized Zn||Zn symmetric cell exhibits outstanding cycling stability,sustaining reversible plating/stripping for 570 h at 50 mA/cm^(2) and the Zn||V_(2)O_(5) full cell retains exceptional stability over 2000 cycles at 1 A/g.Our work presents a promising strategy for suppressing interfacial side reactions by constructing a hydrophobic protective layer through the use of ultra-long carbon chain surfactants.This approach offers new insights into enhancing the performance of aqueous Zn-ion batteries.

文摘There has been an increasing emphasis on performing deep neural network(DNN)inference locally on edge devices due to challenges such as network congestion and security concerns.However,as DRAM process technology continues to scale down,the bit-flip errors in the memory of edge devices become more frequent,thereby leading to substantial DNN inference accuracy loss.Though several techniques have been proposed to alleviate the accuracy loss in edge environments,they require complex computations and additional parity bits for error correction,thus resulting in significant performance and storage overheads.In this paper,we propose FeatherGuard,a data-driven lightweight error protection scheme for DNN inference on edge devices.FeatherGuard selectively protects critical bit positions(that have a significant impact on DNN inference accuracy)against bit-flip errors,by considering various DNN characteristics(e.g.,data format,layer-wise weight distribution,actually stored logical values).Thus,it achieves high error tolerability during DNN inference.Since FeatherGuard reduces the bit-flip errors based on only a few simple arithmetic operations(e.g.,NOT operations)without parity bits,it causes negligible performance overhead and no storage overhead.Our experimental results show that FeatherGuard improves the error tolerability by up to 6667×and 4000×,compared to the conventional systems and the state-of-the-art error protection technique for edge environments,respectively.

文摘Mobile communications are reaching out to every aspect of our daily life,necessitating highefficiency data transmission and support for diverse data types and communication scenarios.Polar codes have emerged as a promising solution due to their outstanding error-correction performance and low complexity.Unequal error protection(UEP)involves nonuniform error safeguarding for distinct data segments,achieving a fine balance between error resilience and resource allocation,which ultimately enhancing system performance and efficiency.In this paper,we propose a novel class of UEP rateless polar codes.The codes are designed based on matrix extension of polar codes,and elegant mapping and duplication operations are designed to achieve UEP property while preserving the overall performance of conventional polar codes.Superior UEP performance is attained without significant modifications to conventional polar codes,making it straightforward for compatibility with existing polar codes.A theoretical analysis is conducted on the block error rate and throughput efficiency performance.To the best of our knowledge,this work provides the first theoretical performance analysis of UEP rateless polar codes.Simulation results show that the proposed codes significantly outperform existing polar coding schemes in both block error rate and throughput efficiency.

文摘Addressing the widespread issues of internal fragmentation within protected areas and the neglect of surrounding critical habitat networks,this study aims to develop an assessment framework for the precise identification and remediation of regional conservation gaps.To this end,we introduce the Framework for Conservation Priority Identification(FCPI).The framework integrates Morphological Spatial Pattern Analysis(MSPA),the Remote Sensing Ecological Index(RSEI),Circuit Theory,and the Minimum Cumulative Resistance(MCR)model to formulate a multidimensional conservation priority index.This index facilitates the identification of critical ecological network components and enables the dynamic prioritization of conservation efforts.A case study of Fuzhou City from 2014 to 2020 reveals that despite an overall improvement in regional environmental quality,the functionality of core ecological sources has markedly declined.Between 2014 and 2020,the number of ecological sources grew by 76.9%,yet their total area shrank by 13.9%.Concurrently,the number of ecological corridors rose from 27 to 53,extending their total length by 380.23 km,which indicates an intensifying trend of habitat fragmentation.Furthermore,a significant number of crucial ecological network nodes,particularly within Minhou County,lie explicitly outside the existing protected area system.This confirms the presence of conservation gaps and unveils the spatiotemporal dynamics of shifting conservation priorities.The research validates that the proposed FCPI can effectively diagnose the dynamic deficiencies within conservation systems.It offers scientific decisionsupport for local governments,facilitating a transition from isolated conservation efforts towards systematic and comprehensive ecological network governance.

文摘With the widespread adoption of digital equipment in intelligent substations,testing digital signals in power systems has become an important role for relay protection test equipment.Testing and calibrating digital signals require high accuracy.However,existing methods have low precision,cannot be calibrated at full range for all indexes,and have complex configuration,making them unsuitable for routine calibration work.To solve the above problems,a novel calibration method is designed and implemented using field programmable gate array(FPGA)to achieve accurate input and output time control.Accurate calibration relies on multiple forms of traceability including theoretical value traceability based on waveform comparison,time scale value traceability based on accurate time stamps,and algorithm traceability based on typical algorithms.Compared with other existing methods,the proposed approach reduces the mean absolute error of action time and time measurement by 92.88%,effectively addressing a key industry challenge and offering a valuable reference for further research,application,and standardization.
基金Construction of Standardized Protective Nursing Plan for Hydrofluoric Acid Operation in Stomatology and Re search on Injury Prevention Effect(Project No.:FZ2025101)。
文摘Objective:To evaluate the implementation effectiveness of standardized protective care procedures during hydrofluoric acid procedures in the dental department.Methods:This study was conducted from June 2023 to June 2025,selecting 90 patients who underwent hydrofluoric acid-related treatments in the outpatient dental department of this hospital during this period as subjects.Forty-five patients treated between June 2023 and June 2024 received conventional protective care(pre-intervention group),while 45 patients treated between June 2024 and June 2025 underwent the standardized protective care protocol(post-intervention group).Thirteen healthcare personnel participated in both pre-and post-intervention treatment phases.Based on the different nursing models,indicators such as the incidence of adverse events in patients and the exposure rate of healthcare personnel before and after implementation were compared to evaluate the effectiveness of the nursing intervention.Results:The incidence of oral mucosal irritation reactions in patients was lower after implementation,p<0.05.Compared with the pre-implementation period,the incidence of procedure-related adverse events decreased after implementation,p<0.05.There was a significant difference in the occupational exposure rate of healthcare personnel before and after implementation,with a higher rate observed before implementation(p<0.05).Post-implementation,healthcare personnel achieved higher compliance scores for pre-procedure preparation,intra-procedure protection,and post-procedure handling(p<0.05).Patient satisfaction with treatment was lower pre-implementation than post-implementation(p<0.05).Conclusion:Adherence to standardized protective care procedures during hydrofluoric acid operations by dental department staff in outpatient settings standardizes practitioner techniques,effectively prevents oral mucosal irritation in patients,reduces occupational exposure risks for staff,minimizes adverse procedural events,and consequently enhances patient treatment satisfaction.This demonstrates significant practical value.

文摘Hypervelocity rocket sled systems are critical for testing advanced military technologies,yet track damage at speeds exceeding Mach 5 remains a significant challenge for system reliability and performance.In this study,we investigated the hypervelocity impact response and protection for highstrength U71 Mn or bainitic steel used in rocket sled tracks.Flyer plate impact experiments using a two-stage light-gas gun were conducted to study the hypervelocity collision response,followed by the microstructural characterization via optical microscope,scanning electron microscopy equipped with electron backscatter diffraction to reveal underlying damage mechanisms.Then,the calibrated thermalmechanical coupled finite element simulations using the Johnson-Cook constitutive model and MieGrüneisen equation of state were carried out.Results indicated that bainitic steel exhibits superior impact resistance with predominantly smooth scratch-dominated damage due to its higher ductility.In contrast,U71 Mn suffered significant material spallation and crack propagation arising from brittle fracture mechanisms.Zinc-rich epoxy primer coatings effectively mitigated stress concentration and temperature rise in the substrate at impacting velocities below 2.4 km/s,so as to suppress the microstructural damage such as adiabatic shear bands and dynamic recrystallization.However,coating protection diminished at ultra-high-speed impacts due to the coating failure.Dimensional analysis established quantitative relationships of the gouge damage size to projectile mass,impact velocity,and material yield strength.This study provides in-depth insights into damage mechanisms in hypervelocity rail systems,demonstrating that bainitic steel combined with protective coatings can significantly enhance impact resistance and system reliability,offering valuable guidance for the design and optimization of hypervelocity testing platforms.

文摘Waterborne acrylic coatings are widely utilized due to their cost-effectiveness,high transparency,strong resistance to weather and chemicals,impressive mechanical properties,and excellent adhesion to various substrates.In these coatings,a reactive emulsifier containing phosphate groups can be integrated into the molecular chain during polymerization,which enhances the coating's compactness and corrosion resistance.This work focuses on the synthesis of styrene-butyl acrylate(St-BA)latex and methyl methacrylate-butyl acrylate(MMA-BA)latex using the reactive phosphate emulsifier ANPEO_(10)-P_(1) through seed emulsion polymerization,achieving a conversion rate of approximately 99%and a solid content close to 50%.The resulting coatings from St-BA and MMA-BA latexes demonstrated long-term corrosion protection for carbon steel and aluminum alloy due to in-situ phosphatization,effectively preventing flash rust.Notably,the MMA-BA coating exhibited remarkable durability,enduring immersion for up to 1224 h(51 d)on Q 235 carbon steel before reaching the failure threshold(|Z|0.01 Hz£106Ω·cm^(2))on Q 235 carbon steel.On 5052 aluminum alloy,the St-BA coating maintained|Z|0.01 Hz>10^(8)Ω·cm^(2) for 480 h(20 d).Furthermore,the corrosion resistance of St-BA and MMA BA coatings on Q 235 steel sheet and 5052 aluminum alloy surpassed that of commercially available MMA-BA and St BA coatings after immersion in a 3.5 wt%NaCl aqueous solution.This work also delves into the anticorrosion mechanism of MMA-BA and St-BA coatings.

文摘In this study,artificial neural networks(ANNs)were implemented to determine design parameters for an impressed current cathodic protection(ICCP)prototype.An ASTM A36 steel plate was tested in 3.5%NaCl solution,seawater,and NS4 using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)to monitor the evolution of the substrate surface,which affects the current required to reach the protection potential(Eprot).Experimental data were collected as training datasets and analyzed using statistical methods,including box plots and correlation matrices.Subsequently,ANNs were applied to predict the current demand at different exposure times,enabling the estimation of electrochemical parameters(limiting voltage values)that can be used to optimize a self-regulating ICCP system.The obtained electrochemical parameters were then used,through Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO),to fine-tune an ANN-based proportional-integral-derivative(PID)controller for the ICCP system.
