The problem on how to distribute braking forces of front wheel and rear wheel for electric vehicles with four-wheel drive was more complex than that for electric vehicles with front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive. In this work, the frictional braking forces distribution curve of front wheel and rear wheel is determined by optimizing the braking force distribution curve of hydraulic proportional-adjustable valve, and then the safety brake range is obtained correspondingly. A new braking force distribution strategy based on regenerative braking strength continuity is proposed to solve the braking force distribution problem for electric vehicles with four-wheel drive. Highway fuel economy test(HWFET) driving condition is used to provide the speed signals, the braking force equations of front wheel and rear wheel are expressed with linear equations. The feasibility, effectiveness, and practicality of the new braking force distribution strategy based on regenerative braking strength continuity are verified by regenerative braking strength simulation curve and braking force distribution simulation curves of front wheel and rear wheel. The proposed strategy is simple in structure, easy to be implemented and worthy being spread.展开更多

Very recently, precise classification criteria have been proposed in order to define four distinct subcategories. The present case highlights how the clinical presentation, the confounding results from imaging studies, and the difficulties in the histological evaluation often render cases of non-cirrhotic portal hypertension a real diagnostic challenge. It also underscores the classification problems which can be faced once this diagnosis is performed. Indeed, the different subcategories proposed result from the prevalent subtypes in a spectrum of hepatic regenerative responses to a variety of injuries determining microcirculatory dis-turbances. More flexibility in classification should derive from this etiopathogenic background.展开更多

文摘The potential of regenerative medicine in the clinical space is vast,given its ability to repair and replace damaged tissues,restore lost functions due to age or disease,and transform personalized therapy.Traditional regenerative medicine and tissue engineering strategies have created specialized tissues using progenitor cells and various biological stimuli.To date,there are many US Food and Drug Administration(FDA)-approved regenerative medicine therapies,such as those for wound healing and orthopedic injuries.Nonetheless,these therapies face challenges,including off-target effects,a lack of precision,and failure to target the disease or injury at its origin.In search of novel,precise,and efficient alternatives,the regenerative medicine landscape is shifting towards genome engineering technologies,particularly gene editing.Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats(CRISPR)-based gene editing systems enable precise knock-ins,knockouts,transcriptional activation and repression,as well as specific base conversions.This advancement has allowed researchers to treat genetic and degenerative diseases,control cell fate for highly regulated tissue repair,and enhance tissue functions.In this review,we explore the progress and future prospects of CRISPR technologies in regenerative medicine,focusing on how gene editing has led to advanced therapeutic applications and served as a versatile research tool for understanding tissue development and disease progression.
文摘Stromal vascular fraction(SVF)therapy is a promising regenerative medicine strategy derived from adipose tissue,containing a heterogeneous mix of cells,including adipose-derived stem,endothelial,and immune cells.Despite its potential in treating conditions like osteoarthritis,chronic wounds,and myo-cardial ischemia,significant challenges impede its clinical translation.Key obstacles include biological variability in SVF composition,unclear mechanisms of action,regulatory ambiguities,and the technical difficulty of ensuring stan-dardized and scalable isolation methods.Furthermore,patient-specific factors,ethical concerns,and the need for comprehensive efficacy assessment complicate clinical application.Addressing these challenges requires advancements in technology,regulatory flexibility,interdisciplinary collaboration,and person-alized therapeutic approaches.Innovations such as automated isolation systems,advanced biomaterials,and CRISPR-based gene editing are potential solutions to improve the therapeutic reliability of SVF.A structured roadmap,including preclinical research,regulatory approval,and post-market surveillance,is proposed to advance SVF therapies from the laboratory to clinical practice.Future directions should focus on large-scale clinical trials,biomarker development,real-world evidence generation,and standardization of protocols to enhance the safety,efficacy,and accessibility of SVF,ultimately realizing its potential as a versatile therapeutic in regenerative medicine.

文摘Conjunctival goblet cells are of great significance to the ocular surface.By secreting mucins-particularly MUC5AC-they play a pivotal role in stabilizing the tear film,safeguarding the cornea from environmental insults,and preserving overall ocular homeostasis.Over the past decade,remarkable progress has been made in understanding the distinctive biological characteristics and regenerative potential of these specialized cells,opening novel avenues for treating various ocular surface disorders,ranging from dry eye syndrome and allergic conjunctivitis to more severe conditions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome.This review comprehensively examines the morphology,function,and regulation of conjunctival goblet cells.Advanced imaging modalities,such as transmission electron microscopy,have provided in-depth insights into their ultrastructure.Densely packed mucin granules and a specialized secretory apparatus have been uncovered,highlighting the cells’proficiency in producing and releasing MUC5AC.These structural characterizations have significantly enhanced our understanding of how goblet cells contribute to maintaining a stable and protective mucosal barrier,which is crucial for ocular surface integrity.The review further delves into the intricate signaling networks governing the differentiation and regeneration of these cells.Key pathways,including Notch,Wnt/β-catenin,and TGF-β,have emerged as essential regulators of cell fate decisions,ensuring that goblet cells maintain their specialized functions.Critical transcription factors,such as Klf4,Klf5,and SPDEF,have been identified as indispensable for driving the differentiation process and sustaining the mature phenotype of goblet cells.Additionally,the modulatory effects of inflammatory mediators-such as IL-6,IL-13,and TNF-α-and growth factors,such as EGF and FGF,are explored.These molecular insights offer a robust framework for understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying ocular surface diseases,wherein the dysregulation of these processes often results in diminished goblet cell numbers and impaired tear film stability.Innovative methodological approaches have provided a strong impetus to this field.The development of three-dimensional(3D)in vitro culture systems that replicate the native conjunctival microenvironment has enabled more physiologically relevant investigations of goblet cell biology.Moreover,the integration of stem cell technologies-including the use of induced pluripotent stem cells(iPSCs)and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells(BM-MSCs)-has made it possible to generate goblet cell-like epithelia,thereby presenting promising strategies for tissue engineering and regenerative therapies.The application of artificial intelligence in optimizing drug screening and biomaterial scaffold design represents an exciting frontier that may accelerate the translation of these findings into effective clinical interventions.In conclusion,this review underscores the central role of conjunctival goblet cells in preserving ocular surface health and illuminates the transformative potential of emerging regenerative approaches.Continued research focused on deciphering the intricate molecular mechanisms governing goblet cell function and regeneration is essential for developing innovative,targeted therapies that can significantly improve the management of ocular surface diseases and enhance patient quality of life.

文摘The regenerative braking energy utilization system(RBEUS)stands as a promising technique for improving the efficiency and power quality of electrified railways.Beyond the vital aspects of energy management and control strategies,ensuring fault protection is paramount for the secure and steady operation of the traction power supply system(TPSS)integrated with RBEUS.This paper introduces an innovative protection scheme tailored to diverse RBEUS application scenarios.Firstly,fault categories are streamlined into three levels:system,equipment,and warning.Subsequently,a novel multi-port active power differential protection method,aligned with RBEUS operational principles,is crafted to serve as a comprehensive and sensitive main protection.Building upon this foundation,a hierarchical protection structure for RBEUS is established,addressing the intricacies and variations in fault types while boosting anti-disturbance capabilities under faulty conditions.Embracing the principle of railway-oriented safety,a collaborative RBEUS-TPSS protection scheme is put forth.Finally,through simulated scenarios encompassing various fault conditions,the proposed scheme’s feasibility and effectiveness are convincingly validated.
文摘Spinal cord injury is a condition in which the parenchyma of the spinal cord is damaged by trauma or various diseases.While rapid progress has been made in regenerative medicine for spinal cord injury that was previously untreatable,most research in this field has focused on the early phase of incomplete injury.However,the majority of patients have chronic severe injuries;therefore,treatments for these situations are of fundamental importance.The reason why the treatment of complete spinal cord injury has not been studied is that,unlike in the early stage of incomplete spinal cord injury,there are various inhibitors of neural regeneration.Thus,we assumed that it is difficult to address all conditions with a single treatment in chronic complete spinal cord injury and that a combination of several treatments is essential to target severe pathologies.First,we established a combination therapy of cell transplantation and drug-releasing scaffolds,which contributes to functional recovery after chronic complete transection spinal cord injury,but we found that functional recovery was limited and still needs further investigation.Here,for the further development of the treatment of chronic complete spinal cord injury,we review the necessary approaches to the different pathologies based on our findings and the many studies that have been accumulated to date and discuss,with reference to the literature,which combination of treatments is most effective in achieving functional recovery.
文摘In this editorial,we comment on the hard and soft tissue applications of different ceramic-based scaffolds prepared by different mechanisms such as 3D printing,sol-gel,and electrospinning.The new concept of regenerative medicine relies on biomaterials that can trigger in situ tissue regeneration and stem cell recruitment at the defect site.A large percentage of these biomaterials is ceramic-based as they provide the essential requirements of biomaterial principles such as tailored multisize porosity,antibacterial properties,and angiogenic properties.All these previously mentioned properties put bioceramics on top of the hierarchy of biomaterials utilized to stimulate tissue regeneration in soft and hard tissue wounds.Multiple clinical applications registered the use of these materials in triggering soft tissue regeneration in healthy and diabetic patients such as bioactive glass nanofibers.The results were promising and opened new frontiers for utilizing these materials on a larger scale.The same results were mentioned when using different forms and formulas of bioceramics in hard defect regeneration.Some bioceramics were used in combination with other polymers and biological scaffolds to improve their regenerative and mechanical properties.All this progress will enable a larger scale of patients to receive such services with ease and decrease the financial burden on the government.

文摘The thermal protection of rocket engines is a crucial aspect of rocket engine design.In this paper,the gas film/regenerative composite cooling of the liquid oxygen/liquid methane(LOX/LCH4)rocket engine thrust chamber was investigated.A gas film/regenerative composite cooling model was developed based on the Grisson gas film cooling efficiency formula and the one-dimensional regenerative cooling model.The accuracy of the model was validated through experiments conducted on a 6 kg/s level gas film/regenerative composite cooling thrust chamber.Additionally,key parameters related to heat transfer performance were calculated.The results demonstrate that the model is sufficiently accurate to be used as a preliminary design tool.The temperature rise error of the coolant,when compared with the experimental results,was found to be less than 10%.Although the pressure drop error is relatively large,the calculated results still provide valuable guidance for heat transfer analysis.In addition,the performance of composite cooling is observed to be superior to regenerative cooling.Increasing the gas film flow rate results in higher cooling efficiency and a lower gas-side wall temperature.Furthermore,the position at which the gas film is introduced greatly impacts the cooling performance.The optimal introduction position for the gas film is determined when the film is introduced from a single row of holes.This optimal introduction position results in a more uniform wall temperature distribution and reduces the peak temperature.Lastly,it is observed that a double row of holes,when compared to a single row of holes,enhances the cooling effect in the superposition area of the gas film and further lowers the gas-side wall temperature.These results provide a basis for the design of gas film/regenerative composite cooling systems.

文摘BACKGROUND Intrabony defects beneath non-keratinized mucosa are frequently observed at the distal site of terminal molars.Consequently,the application of regenerative treatment using the modified wedge-flap technique is considered impractical for these specific dental conditions.CASE SUMMARY This article proposes a modified surgical procedure aimed at exposing the distal intrabony defect by making a vertical incision in the keratinized buccal gingiva.The primary objective is to maintain gingival flap stability,thereby facilitating periodontal regeneration.The described technique was successfully employed in a case involving the left mandibular second molar,which presented with an intrabony defect without keratinized gingiva at the distal site.In this case,an incision was made on the disto-buccal gingival tissue,creating a tunnel-like separation of the distal non-keratinized soft tissue to expose the intrabony defect.Subsequently,bone grafting and guided tissue regeneration surgeries were performed,resulting in satisfactory bone fill at 9 mo postoperatively.CONCLUSION This technique offers a regenerative opportunity for the intrabony defects beneath non-keratinized mucosa and is recommended for further research.

文摘Regenerative braking was the process of converting the kinetic energy and potential energy, which were stored in the vehicle body when vehicle braked or went downhill, into electrical energy and storing it into battery. The problem on how to distribute braking forces of front wheel and rear wheel for electric vehicles with four-wheel drive was more complex than that for electric vehicles with front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive. In this work, the frictional braking forces distribution curve of front wheel and rear wheel is determined by optimizing the braking force distribution curve of hydraulic proportional-adjustable valve, and then the safety brake range is obtained correspondingly. A new braking force distribution strategy based on regenerative braking strength continuity is proposed to solve the braking force distribution problem for electric vehicles with four-wheel drive. Highway fuel economy test(HWFET) driving condition is used to provide the speed signals, the braking force equations of front wheel and rear wheel are expressed with linear equations. The feasibility, effectiveness, and practicality of the new braking force distribution strategy based on regenerative braking strength continuity are verified by regenerative braking strength simulation curve and braking force distribution simulation curves of front wheel and rear wheel. The proposed strategy is simple in structure, easy to be implemented and worthy being spread.
文摘Non-cirrhotic portal hypertension is a poorly understood condition characterized by portal hypertension in the absence of conventional hepatic cirrhosis and described in association with blood coagulation disorders, myeloproliferative and immunological diseases and with exposure to toxic drugs. Very recently, precise classification criteria have been proposed in order to define four distinct subcategories. The present case highlights how the clinical presentation, the confounding results from imaging studies, and the difficulties in the histological evaluation often render cases of non-cirrhotic portal hypertension a real diagnostic challenge. It also underscores the classification problems which can be faced once this diagnosis is performed. Indeed, the different subcategories proposed result from the prevalent subtypes in a spectrum of hepatic regenerative responses to a variety of injuries determining microcirculatory dis-turbances. More flexibility in classification should derive from this etiopathogenic background.
