The plan designs ...In order to rapidly respond to the complex and mutational market, a new facility layout plan based on cellular manufacturing is proposed, which gives consideration to high efficiency and flexibility. The plan designs two phases of integrated cell layout, i.e., cell construction and cell system layout, on the condition of adding/removing machines. First, in view of the costs of logics and machine-relocation, the cell construction based on the alternative processing routes and intra-cell layout are integrated as a whole, which achieves cell formation, process planning and the intra-cell layout in a single step. Secondly, an approach of a continuous optimized multi-line layout for solving the cell system layout problem is proposed, which eliminates the coupling relationship from the machine-relocation and realizes an integrated design of the two phases of the cell layout. An application based on real factory data is optimally solved by the Matlab 7.0 software to validate and verify the models.展开更多

The result showed that the isolated denitrifying bacteria could effectively remove nitrate-N from seawater. About 90 % of nitrate-N was removed by denitrifying bacteria from seawater within a week in the simulated experiment I (the initial concentration of nitrate-N was 100 mg/L). The removal efficiency of nitrate-N reached about 70 % within one day in the simulated experiment Ⅱ (initial concentration of nitrate-N was 1 mg/L). The final removal efficiency was about 98 % and 85 % in the simulated experiments Ⅰ and Ⅱ, respectively. It was found that there was positive correlation between the concentration of nitrate-N and the number of denitrifying bacteria in seawater. Lots of denitrifying bacteria would disappear and the seawater would become transparent once the process of bioremediation was completed.展开更多

An SDPB-strain YC was screened after the sludge enrichment and was identified by morphological, physiological, biochemical properties and 16S rDNA gene sequence analysis. Denitrifying phosphorus-removing experiments were conducted to study anaerobic and anoxic metabolic mechanisms by analyzing the changes of chemical oxygen demand (COD), phosphate, nitrite, poly-fl-hydroxybutyrate (PHB), and glycogen. The results show that strain YC is a non-fermentative SDPB similar to Paracoccus denitrificans. As a kind of non-fermentative bacteria, the energy of strain YC was mainly generated from phosphorus release (96.2%) under anaerobic conditions with 0.32 mg P per mg synthesized PHB. Under anoxic conditions, strain YC accumulated 0.45 mg P per mg degraded PHB, which produced most of energy for phosphate accumulation (91.3%) and a little for glycogen synthesis (8.7%). This metabolic mechanism of strain YC is different from that of traditional phosphorus-accumulating organisms (PAOs). It is also found that PHB, a kind of intracellular polymer, plays a very important role in denitrifying and accumulating phosphorus by supplying sufficient energy for phosphorous accumulation and carbon sources for denitrification. Therefore, monitoring AP/APHB and ANO2 -N/APHB is more necessary than monitoring AP/ACOD, ANO2 -N/ACOD, or AP / ANO2 -N.展开更多

The cycle time can be reduced drastically and hence the production efficiency can be increased significantly but harmonic distortion of one sweep will leak into the record of the other sweep. In this paper, we propose an anti-correlation method for removing harmonic distortion in vibroseis data. This method is based on decomposition of the ground force signal into fundamental and harmonic components. Then the corresponding anti-correlation operator can be computed to estimate the energy of each harmonic after correlating the vibroseis data with the corresponding harmonic component. Finally, the vibroseis harmonic noise to be removed can be obtained by subtracting the extracted harmonic noise from the traces of the previous group's sweep. The advantage of the proposed method is that it can process both uncorrelated and correlated vibroseis seismic data. Moreover, the algorithm is simple, stable, and computationally fast. Especially, the significant contribution of this method is a considerable reduction in the harmonic without any alteration of the desired signals. The method was tested on both synthetic and field data sets to validate the good harmonic noise suppression results.展开更多

Methods A total of 138 patients with proximal ureteral calculi underwent ureteroscopic Ho:YAG laser lithotripsy by a single endocrinologist. Stone size varied from 10 to 15 mm. After operation, the patients were randomly divided into three groups: the control group(group A), tamsulosin group(group B), and Removing Stasis and Reducing Heat Formula group(group C). The treatment lasted for 4 weeks or until stone clearance. The primary and secondary outcomes of the three groups at follow-up were assessed. Results Of the 131 patients available for follow-up, 44 cases were in the group A, 45 in the group B, and 42 in the group C, respectively. The stone free rate at 2 weeks in the groups B and C were significantly higher than that in the group A(95.56%, 97.62% vs. 79.55%; all P<0.05). The ureteral colic rate and mean time of fragment expulsion were significantly reduced in the groups B(4.44% and 7.86±4.99 days) and C(2.43% and 6.76±4.37 days) compared with the group A(22.73% and 11.54±9.89 days, all P<0.05). On the day of double-J ureteric stent removal, the group C differed significantly from the group A in the total International Prostate Symptom Score, irritative subscore, obstructive subscore, and quality of life score(all P<0.05). Conclusion Removing Stasis and Reducing Heat Formula in the medical expulsive therapy might be an effective modality for patients with calculus in the proximal uretera after ureteroscopic Ho:YAG laser lithotripsy.展开更多

A quadratic model was suggested by RSM to correlate the key parameters, namely, dos-age of chlorinating agent, roasting temperature and roasting time to the copper volatilization ratio. The results indi- cate that the model is well consistent with the experimental data at a correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.95, and the dosage of chlorinating agent and roasting temperature both have significant effects on the copper volatilization ratio. However, a roasting temperature exceeding 1170 ~C decreases the volatilization ratio. The optimum conditions for removing copper from the cinder were identified as chlorinating agent dosage at 5%, roasting temperature at i155.10 ℃ and roasting time of 10 min; under Such a conditiom a copper volatilization ratid of 95.16% Was a- chieved from the cinder. Thermodynamic calculation shows that SiO2 in the pellet plays a key role in the chlorine re-lease from calcium chloride, and the chlorine release reactions cannot occur without it.展开更多

The main body of the parallel AN/AO process consists of an AN (anaerobic-anoxic) process and an AO (anaerobic-aerobic) process. In the AO process, the common phosphorus accumulating organisms (PAOs) was dominate, while in the AN process, DPB was dominate, The volume of anaerobic zone(Vana):anoxie zone(Vano) : aerobic zone (Vaer) for the parallel AN/AO process is 1:1:1 in contrast with a Vana:Vaer and Vano:Vaer of 1:2 and 1:4 for a traditional biological nutrient removal process (BNR). Process 3 excels in the 3 processes on the basis of COD, TN and TP removal. For 4 month operation, the effluent COD concentration of process 3 did not exceed 60 mg/L; the effluent TN concentration of process 3 was lower than 15 mg/L; and the effluent TP concentration of process 3 was lower than 1 mg/L.展开更多

When simultaneous absorbing SO2 and NO, the precipitation of Co2(SO3)3 will be yielded and the NO removal will be decreased. A new catalyst system using Co(en)3^3+ coupled with urea has been developed to simultaneous remove NO and SO2 in the flue gas. NO is absorbed and catalytically oxidized to nitrite and nitrate by Co(en)3^3+. The dissolved oxygen in scrubbing solution from the feed stream acts as oxidant. Urea restrains the precipitation of Co2(SO3)3 by oxidizing SO3^2-to SO4^2- as COSO4 is more soluble in water. The experimental results proved that nearly all SO3^2- can be oxidized to SO4^2- and the high NO and SO2 removal could be obtained with the new system. The NO removal is influenced by gas flow rate, the concentration of Co(en)3^3+ and urea in the absorption solution, the temperature of the scrubbing solution and the content of oxygen in the flue gas. The low gas flow rate is favorable to increase the NO removal. The experiments proved that the NO removal could be maintained at more than 95% by the system of 0.02 mol/L Co(en)3^3+ and 1% urea at 50℃ with 10% O2 in the flue gas.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND This case report examines the challenges associated with removing a totally implantable venous access port(TIVAP)used for long-term chemotherapy in a patient with breast cancer.Prolonged use of TIVAPs can result in complications such as catheter kinking,thrombosis,and adhesions between the catheter and surrounding tissues,potentially complicating their removal.CASE SUMMARY A breast cancer patient with bone metastasis presented with difficulty aspirating blood from a TIVAP that had been placed in the right internal jugular vein for 3 years.Initial removal attempts at the Department of Venous Access Center were unsuccessful,likely due to adhesions,necessitating a subsequent successful catheter extraction in a hybrid operating room.Imaging revealed no abnor-malities,and the catheter was removed using a mosquito clamp to detach it from surrounding tissues.CONCLUSION This case highlights the challenges of removing TIVAPs inserted via the internal jugular vein,particularly when the catheter traverses the sternocleidomastoid muscle.Repeated neck movements might lead to significant adhesions around the catheter,complicating its removal.Careful consideration should be given during catheter placement to avoid muscle-related adhesions and facilitate smoother extraction in long-term use.

文摘In order to rapidly respond to the complex and mutational market, a new facility layout plan based on cellular manufacturing is proposed, which gives consideration to high efficiency and flexibility. The plan designs two phases of integrated cell layout, i.e., cell construction and cell system layout, on the condition of adding/removing machines. First, in view of the costs of logics and machine-relocation, the cell construction based on the alternative processing routes and intra-cell layout are integrated as a whole, which achieves cell formation, process planning and the intra-cell layout in a single step. Secondly, an approach of a continuous optimized multi-line layout for solving the cell system layout problem is proposed, which eliminates the coupling relationship from the machine-relocation and realizes an integrated design of the two phases of the cell layout. An application based on real factory data is optimally solved by the Matlab 7.0 software to validate and verify the models.

文摘A novel technique was developed to remove impurities from crude lead by vacuum distillation.The thermodynamics on vacuum distillation refining process of crude lead was studied by means of saturated vapor pressure of main components of crude lead,separation coefficients and vapor-liquid equilibrium composition of Pb-i(i stands for an impurity) system at different temperatures.The behaviors of impurities in the vacuum distillation refining process were investigated.The results show that the vacuum distillation should be taken to obtain lead from crude lead,in which Zn,As and partial Sb are volatilized at lower temperature of 923-1023 K.Lead is distilled from the residue containing Cu,Sn,Ag and Bi at higher temperature of 1323-1423 K,but the impurity Bi is also volatilized along with lead and cannot be separated from lead.
文摘The objective of this research was to isolate denitrifying bacteria from sea sediment and simulate the removal efficiency of nitrate-N by denitrifying bacteria from seawater. The result showed that the isolated denitrifying bacteria could effectively remove nitrate-N from seawater. About 90 % of nitrate-N was removed by denitrifying bacteria from seawater within a week in the simulated experiment I (the initial concentration of nitrate-N was 100 mg/L). The removal efficiency of nitrate-N reached about 70 % within one day in the simulated experiment Ⅱ (initial concentration of nitrate-N was 1 mg/L). The final removal efficiency was about 98 % and 85 % in the simulated experiments Ⅰ and Ⅱ, respectively. It was found that there was positive correlation between the concentration of nitrate-N and the number of denitrifying bacteria in seawater. Lots of denitrifying bacteria would disappear and the seawater would become transparent once the process of bioremediation was completed.

文摘To investigate the characteristics and metabolic mechanism of short-cut denitrifying phospho- rus-removing bacteria (SDPB) that are capable of enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) using nitrite as an electron acceptor, an aerobic/anoxic sequencing batch reactor was operated under three phases. An SDPB-strain YC was screened after the sludge enrichment and was identified by morphological, physiological, biochemical properties and 16S rDNA gene sequence analysis. Denitrifying phosphorus-removing experiments were conducted to study anaerobic and anoxic metabolic mechanisms by analyzing the changes of chemical oxygen demand (COD), phosphate, nitrite, poly-fl-hydroxybutyrate (PHB), and glycogen. The results show that strain YC is a non-fermentative SDPB similar to Paracoccus denitrificans. As a kind of non-fermentative bacteria, the energy of strain YC was mainly generated from phosphorus release (96.2%) under anaerobic conditions with 0.32 mg P per mg synthesized PHB. Under anoxic conditions, strain YC accumulated 0.45 mg P per mg degraded PHB, which produced most of energy for phosphate accumulation (91.3%) and a little for glycogen synthesis (8.7%). This metabolic mechanism of strain YC is different from that of traditional phosphorus-accumulating organisms (PAOs). It is also found that PHB, a kind of intracellular polymer, plays a very important role in denitrifying and accumulating phosphorus by supplying sufficient energy for phosphorous accumulation and carbon sources for denitrification. Therefore, monitoring AP/APHB and ANO2 -N/APHB is more necessary than monitoring AP/ACOD, ANO2 -N/ACOD, or AP / ANO2 -N.

文摘The slip-sweep technique is one of the high-efficiency, high-fidelity, and environmental vibroseis seismic prospecting techniques which consists of a vibrator group sweeping without waiting for the previous group's sweep to terminate. The cycle time can be reduced drastically and hence the production efficiency can be increased significantly but harmonic distortion of one sweep will leak into the record of the other sweep. In this paper, we propose an anti-correlation method for removing harmonic distortion in vibroseis data. This method is based on decomposition of the ground force signal into fundamental and harmonic components. Then the corresponding anti-correlation operator can be computed to estimate the energy of each harmonic after correlating the vibroseis data with the corresponding harmonic component. Finally, the vibroseis harmonic noise to be removed can be obtained by subtracting the extracted harmonic noise from the traces of the previous group's sweep. The advantage of the proposed method is that it can process both uncorrelated and correlated vibroseis seismic data. Moreover, the algorithm is simple, stable, and computationally fast. Especially, the significant contribution of this method is a considerable reduction in the harmonic without any alteration of the desired signals. The method was tested on both synthetic and field data sets to validate the good harmonic noise suppression results.
文摘Objective To prospectively evaluate the efficacy of Removing Stasis and Reducing Heat Formula in accelerating calculus clearance and improving lower urinary tract symptoms of patients with proximal ureteral calculi after ureteroscopic Ho:YAG laser lithotripsy. Methods A total of 138 patients with proximal ureteral calculi underwent ureteroscopic Ho:YAG laser lithotripsy by a single endocrinologist. Stone size varied from 10 to 15 mm. After operation, the patients were randomly divided into three groups: the control group(group A), tamsulosin group(group B), and Removing Stasis and Reducing Heat Formula group(group C). The treatment lasted for 4 weeks or until stone clearance. The primary and secondary outcomes of the three groups at follow-up were assessed. Results Of the 131 patients available for follow-up, 44 cases were in the group A, 45 in the group B, and 42 in the group C, respectively. The stone free rate at 2 weeks in the groups B and C were significantly higher than that in the group A(95.56%, 97.62% vs. 79.55%; all P<0.05). The ureteral colic rate and mean time of fragment expulsion were significantly reduced in the groups B(4.44% and 7.86±4.99 days) and C(2.43% and 6.76±4.37 days) compared with the group A(22.73% and 11.54±9.89 days, all P<0.05). On the day of double-J ureteric stent removal, the group C differed significantly from the group A in the total International Prostate Symptom Score, irritative subscore, obstructive subscore, and quality of life score(all P<0.05). Conclusion Removing Stasis and Reducing Heat Formula in the medical expulsive therapy might be an effective modality for patients with calculus in the proximal uretera after ureteroscopic Ho:YAG laser lithotripsy.

文摘The aim is to remove copper from a pyrite cinder by optimizing the chlorination roasting process using re-sponse surface methodology (RSM) and the reaction mechanism of chlorination roasting based on thermodynamic calculation was discussed. A quadratic model was suggested by RSM to correlate the key parameters, namely, dos-age of chlorinating agent, roasting temperature and roasting time to the copper volatilization ratio. The results indi- cate that the model is well consistent with the experimental data at a correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.95, and the dosage of chlorinating agent and roasting temperature both have significant effects on the copper volatilization ratio. However, a roasting temperature exceeding 1170 ~C decreases the volatilization ratio. The optimum conditions for removing copper from the cinder were identified as chlorinating agent dosage at 5%, roasting temperature at i155.10 ℃ and roasting time of 10 min; under Such a conditiom a copper volatilization ratid of 95.16% Was a- chieved from the cinder. Thermodynamic calculation shows that SiO2 in the pellet plays a key role in the chlorine re-lease from calcium chloride, and the chlorine release reactions cannot occur without it.

文摘Three parallel anaerobic-anoxic/anaerobic-aerobic (AN/AO) processes were developed to enrich denitrifying phosphorus removal bacteria (DPB) for low strength wastewater treatment. The main body of the parallel AN/AO process consists of an AN (anaerobic-anoxic) process and an AO (anaerobic-aerobic) process. In the AO process, the common phosphorus accumulating organisms (PAOs) was dominate, while in the AN process, DPB was dominate, The volume of anaerobic zone(Vana):anoxie zone(Vano) : aerobic zone (Vaer) for the parallel AN/AO process is 1:1:1 in contrast with a Vana:Vaer and Vano:Vaer of 1:2 and 1:4 for a traditional biological nutrient removal process (BNR). Process 3 excels in the 3 processes on the basis of COD, TN and TP removal. For 4 month operation, the effluent COD concentration of process 3 did not exceed 60 mg/L; the effluent TN concentration of process 3 was lower than 15 mg/L; and the effluent TP concentration of process 3 was lower than 1 mg/L.

文摘Aluminum,the main impurity in the lixivium of weathered crust elution deposited rare earth ore,not only results in an increasing consumption of precipitant in the rare earth precipitation process,but also lowers the purity of final rare earth product.Aluminum in the weathered crust elution-deposited rare earth ore lixivium should be removed.Neutralizing hydrolysis method was employed to remove aluminum from the lixivium.Hexamethylenetetramine was found to be the optimum pH regulator for the removal of aluminum in the low concentration.When used to adjust the pH value of the lixivium to 5.0,aluminum in the lixivium can be effectively removed in the form of aluminum hydroxide precipitation with removal rate of 97.60%.It shows that hexamethylenetetramine has a good effect on the removing of aluminum ions from the lowconcentration lixivium.Moreover,hexamethylenetetramine in removing aluminum from lixivium has little adverse effect on the RE precipitation process.
文摘Absorption and catalytic oxidation of nitric oxide can be achieved by using cobalt(Ⅲ) ethylenediamine (Co(en)3^3+. When simultaneous absorbing SO2 and NO, the precipitation of Co2(SO3)3 will be yielded and the NO removal will be decreased. A new catalyst system using Co(en)3^3+ coupled with urea has been developed to simultaneous remove NO and SO2 in the flue gas. NO is absorbed and catalytically oxidized to nitrite and nitrate by Co(en)3^3+. The dissolved oxygen in scrubbing solution from the feed stream acts as oxidant. Urea restrains the precipitation of Co2(SO3)3 by oxidizing SO3^2-to SO4^2- as COSO4 is more soluble in water. The experimental results proved that nearly all SO3^2- can be oxidized to SO4^2- and the high NO and SO2 removal could be obtained with the new system. The NO removal is influenced by gas flow rate, the concentration of Co(en)3^3+ and urea in the absorption solution, the temperature of the scrubbing solution and the content of oxygen in the flue gas. The low gas flow rate is favorable to increase the NO removal. The experiments proved that the NO removal could be maintained at more than 95% by the system of 0.02 mol/L Co(en)3^3+ and 1% urea at 50℃ with 10% O2 in the flue gas.

文摘Objective This study aimed to compare the mechanisms and efficacies of five formulas that improve blood circulation and remove blood stasis.Methods(1)A network pharmacology method was used to determine the targets of five formulas that promote circulation and remove blood stasis.Compounds of the five formulas,namely Danshen Yin(丹参饮,DSY),Huoluo Xiaoling Dan(活络效灵丹,HLXLD),Shixiao San(失笑散,SXS),Taohong Siwu Tang(桃红四物汤,THSWT),and Xuefu Zhuyu Tang(血府逐瘀汤,XFZYT),were retrieved from the Traditonal Chinese Medicine System Pharmacology Database(TCMSP),the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry of CAS,and the TCM Integrated Database.Drug target network was constructed by searching the Swiss Target Prediction database and the STITCH database.The target network of stasis was extracted from the PharmGKB database,the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man(OMIM)database,the Genetic Association Database(GAD),and the Therapeutic Target Database(TTD).Candidate targets were determined using protein-protein interaction(PPI)network extension and topology selection.Thereafter,Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analysis was used to determine the differentiation of the mechanism of the five formulas.(2)Animal experiments were conducted to explore the efficacies of the five formulas in treating blood stasis.Seventy New Zealand rabbits were exposed to high-fat feeding+epinephrine injection to construct a blood stasis syndrome model.The rabbits were evenly divided into control,model,DSY,HLXLD,SXS,THSWT,and XFZYT groups.The latter five groups were orally administered the corresponding formulas[DSY:3.92 g/(kg·d),XFZYT:7.10 g/(kg·d),SXS:1.12 g/(kg·d),HLXLD:5.60 g/(kg·d),THSWT:4.48 g/(kg·d)].Serum lipid and blood rheology were analyzed,and pathology slices were observed.Results(1)A total of 269,358,288,370,and 376 candidate targets of DSY,HLXLD,SXS,THSWT,and XFZYT were obtained among which were 232 shared candidate targets.Fluid shear stress and atherosclerosis were the biological processes common to the five formulas.HLXLD,SXS,DSY,and THSWT regulated lipolysis in adipocytes,and XFZYT,HLXLD,SXS,and THSWT regulated the AGE-RAGE signaling pathway and complement and coagulation cascades.HLXLD,SXS,and XFZYT regulated the HIF-1 signaling pathway,DSY regulated the cGMP-PKG signaling pathway,HLXLD reduced platelet activation,SXS regulated the calcium signaling pathway,and XFZYT regulated the PPAR signaling pathway.(2)In the animal experiments,the values of total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL),high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL),TC/HDL,and TG/HDL in each group decreased,among which the ones seen in XFZYT,HLXLD,and SXS groups were statistically significant(P<0.05).XFZYT presented the best effect,followed by HLXLD and SXS.XFZYT and HLXLD decreased apolipoprotein B100(apoB100)and increased apolipoprotein A1/apoB100(P<0.05).XFZYT decreased all the values of hematocrit(HCT),plasma viscosity,whole blood viscosity(WBV);HLXLD and SXS affected HCT;and DSY and THSWT regulated WBV(P<0.05).All the five formulas decreased the values of optical density and area of plaque,among which XFZYT and HLXLD showed statistical significance(P<0.05).Conclusion Adjusting fluid shear stress and alleviating the injury of endothelial cells might be the common mechanisms by which the five formulas promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.Different formulas also have unique targets,which may provide guidance for clinical drug selection.By regulating different indices,the five formulas can regulate blood lipid and hemorheology,improve the state of blood stasis,and decrease the degree of aortic plaque in the blood stasis model rabbits.XFZYT and HLXLD had higher efficacies than DSY,THSWT,and SXS.

文摘OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis in terms of Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) for managing renal fibrosis(RF) in patients with chronic kidney disease(CKD).METHODS:We searched randomized controlled trials(RCTs) from eight databases.RESULTS:Sixteen eligible studies with 1,356 participants were included in this study.Compared to treatment with Western Medicine(WM) alone,the combined treatment with activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis in terms of TCM(ARTCM) and WM to manage RF in patients with CKD significantly ameliorated type Ⅳ collagen(C-Ⅳ)(SMD:-2.17,95% CI:3.01 to-1.34),type Ⅲ procollagen(PC-Ⅲ)(SMD:-1.08,95% CI:-1.64 to-0.53),laminin(LN)(SMD:-1.28,95% CI:-1.65 to-0.90),transforming growth factor β 1(TGF-β1)(SMD:-0.65,95% CI:-1.18 to-0.12),serum creatinine(Scr)(SMD:-1.36,95% CI:-1.85 to-0.87),blood urea nitrogen(BUN)(MD:-1.51,95% CI:-2.59 to-0.43),and 24 h urine protein(24h Upro)(SMD:-1.23;95% CI:-1.96 to-0.50).The level of hyaluronic acid(HA) was similar in both types of treatment(SMD:-0.74,95% CI:-1.91 to 0.44).The subgroup analysis showed that the duration of 8 weeks might affect the concentration of C-Ⅳ,PC-Ⅲ,and LN(P < 0.05).The effectiveness of the longer duration to C-Ⅳ,PC-Ⅲ,and LN was not certain.However,the result should be interpreted in care.The safety of the treatment using ARTCM and WM could not be evaluated because a few studies had reported adverse effects.The results of the Meta-analysis were not stable enough.There was publication bias for the reports on Scr(P = 0.001),C-Ⅳ(P = 0.001),PC-Ⅲ(P = 0.026),and LN(P = 0.030) and no publication bias for the reports on BUN(P = 0.293).The quality of evidence varied from low to very low.CONCLUSIONS:The combined treatment using ARTCM and WM to manage RF in patients with CKD has some advantages over treatment with WM alone.High-quality RCTs need to be conducted for the strong support.
