The results indicated that the ANF-6 slag (70 wt.% CaF_(2) + 30 wt.% Al_(2)O_(3)) and deoxidizer could promote the desulfurization of ESR manganese in an air atmosphere. Under an air atmosphere, the sulfur in the ingot decreased to 0.0534 wt.% with a desulfurization ratio of ESR manganese of 53.2% by using ANF-6 slag and water-cooled copper electrode electroslag remelting rejected EMM scrap, suggesting its efficient removal. The electroslag ingots exhibited uneven chemical composition in an air atmosphere and cooling condition of the ESR process. The metal manganese could be oxidized by electroslag remelting of rejected EMM scrap in an air atmosphere with MnO content in the final slag of 21.9 wt.%. Besides, the activity of MnO in slag increased with increasing remelting temperature, resulting in a reduction in the slag–manganese sulfur partition ratio and desulfurization ratio. Moreover, with the accumulation of sulfur in slag and the oxidation of metallic manganese liquid, the slag showed a lower cleanliness and more oxidation, leading to an increase in sulfur and oxygen content in the electroslag ingot with the increase in ingot height.展开更多

The use of donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) in organ transplantationhas led to significant progress in the treatment of post-transplantoutcomes, particularly after kidney transplantation. In addition, the use of ddcfDNAin organ transplantation has led to significant advancements in posttransplantoutcome monitoring. The aim of this study is to review many of therecent studies on the use of this biomarker and to evaluate its most relevantadvantages and limitations. dd-cfDNA is released from several types of cells ofthe transplanted organ, most often from endothelial cells and this happens in thecase of organ damage, most often rejection. Its presence in the bloodstream of therecipients is an important sign of graft damage;its principal advantage is in theavoidance of invasive tools such as renal biopsy. Additionally, several studiesreported that the finding of dd-cfDNA in the serum may precede histologicalabnormalities;its utility in the diagnosis of subclinical rejection is extremelyimportant. Among the principal limitations of this tool are the difficulty in distinguishingdifferent forms of graft damage. According to several studies this toolhas several limitations in diagnosing T-cell mediated rejection. In addition,particular care should be taken in distinguishing dd-cfDNA from recipientderivedcfDNA.展开更多

文摘Remelting rejected electrolytic manganese metal (EMM) scrap was investigated by electroslag remelting (ESR) process through industrial experiment. The results indicated that the ANF-6 slag (70 wt.% CaF_(2) + 30 wt.% Al_(2)O_(3)) and deoxidizer could promote the desulfurization of ESR manganese in an air atmosphere. Under an air atmosphere, the sulfur in the ingot decreased to 0.0534 wt.% with a desulfurization ratio of ESR manganese of 53.2% by using ANF-6 slag and water-cooled copper electrode electroslag remelting rejected EMM scrap, suggesting its efficient removal. The electroslag ingots exhibited uneven chemical composition in an air atmosphere and cooling condition of the ESR process. The metal manganese could be oxidized by electroslag remelting of rejected EMM scrap in an air atmosphere with MnO content in the final slag of 21.9 wt.%. Besides, the activity of MnO in slag increased with increasing remelting temperature, resulting in a reduction in the slag–manganese sulfur partition ratio and desulfurization ratio. Moreover, with the accumulation of sulfur in slag and the oxidation of metallic manganese liquid, the slag showed a lower cleanliness and more oxidation, leading to an increase in sulfur and oxygen content in the electroslag ingot with the increase in ingot height.

文摘BACKGROUND Donor-specific antibodies(DSAs)against human leukocyte antigen(HLA)-DQ are increasingly recognized as major contributors to antibody-mediated rejection(AMR)and graft failure in kidney transplantation.However,their clinical impact remains understudied in Morocco.AIM To evaluate the presence and implications of anti-HLA-DQ DSAs in Moroccan kidney transplant recipients.METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the immunological profiles and clinical outcomes of kidney transplant recipients screened for anti-HLA antibodies between 2015 and 2020,who developed anti-HLA-DQ DSAs either before or after transplantation.Anti-HLA antibodies were identified using Luminex®single antigen bead technology,and clinical follow-up included graft function assessment,biopsy interpretation,and evaluation of immunosuppression.RESULTS In the pre-transplant group(n=6 with confirmed donor typing),patients with low to moderate median fluorescence intensity(MFI)anti-HLA-DQ DSAs(MFI 561-1581)underwent successful transplantation and maintained stable graft function under optimized immunosuppression.In contrast,in the post-transplant group(n=6 with confirmed donor typing),the emergence of de novo anti-HLA-DQ DSAs was consistently associated with AMR,with MFI values reaching up to 19473,with biopsy-proven AMR in 5 of 6 cases and suspicion of AMR in 1 case.Two representative cases are detailed to illustrate the clinical impact of DQ DSAs:one patient developed high-level anti-DQB1*02 de novo DSA(MFI 12029)with persistent AMR after 5 years,while another developed anti-DQA1*05:01 de novo DSA after an early AMR episode but maintained stable graft function after 5 years(creatinine 1.48 mg/dL).CONCLUSION Our findings underscore the clinical significance of anti-HLA-DQ DSAs in Moroccan kidney transplant recipients.While preformed DSAs with low immunogenicity may permit successful transplantation,de novo DSAs strongly correlate with AMR.Proactive monitoring,including routine DSA screening and HLA-DQ typing,could improve graft outcomes by enabling early intervention and better donor selection.
文摘Academic papers are the cornerstone of knowledge dissemination and crucial for researchers’career development.This is particularly true for rapidly evolving research domains such as transportation,as evidenced by the surge of journals and papers in the past decade.While abundant literature offers guidance on successful publication strategies,insights into the reasons for rejection are rare.This study fills in this gap by examining why papers are rejected in the area of transportation.We present concrete evidence based on data from over 5,000 rejected transport papers.Quantitative analyses are conducted to reveal the impacts of similarity rate,duplication submission rate,and topic on desk rejections.Additionally,we shed light on the distinct focus reviewers have when serving different journals.We hope the results could equip transport researchers with a deeper comprehension of publication criteria and a better awareness of common but avoidable mistakes.

文摘The effect of the initial(Al+Si)/MnO molar ratio and slag composition on MnO recovery from electroslag by remelting at 1773 K was investigated.High-purity aluminum metal and silicon were employed as the deoxidizers to effectively promote the recovery of manganese metal(MM).The reduction of MnO in slag,through the interaction between molten MM with a deoxidizer and the Na_(2)O-enriched electroslag melt,was assessed both thermodynamically and kinetically.The sulfur content of high-sulfur rejected electrolytic manganese metal(EMM)scrap decreased to 0.58%with high-temperature pretreatment.The mass ratio between slag and high-sulfur rejected EMM scrap is 2/3.When the Al_(2)O_(3)content in the initial slags decreased and the Na_(2)O content increased,the MnO reduction ratio increased.The residual MnO concentration of the slag reduced with increasing the Al–Si deoxidizer content.When the(Al+Si)/MnO molar ratio reached 0.83,the MnO concentration in the final slag was only 3%.A deoxidizer mainly containing aluminum and a small amount of Si could be added to recover MnO from the slag,resulting in the improvement in the cleanliness of final Mn metal.

文摘The output feedback active disturbance rejection control of a valve-controlled cylinder electro-hydraulic servo system is investigated in this paper.First,a comprehensive nonlinear mathematical model that encompasses both matched and mismatched disturbances is formulated.Due to the fact that only position information can be measured,a linear Extended State Observer(ESO)is introduced to estimate unknown states and matched disturbances,while a dedicated disturbance observer is constructed to estimate mismatched disturbances.Different from the traditional observer results,the design of the disturbance observer used in this study is carried out under the constraint of output feedback.Furthermore,an output feedback nonlinear controller is proposed leveraging the aforementioned observers to achieve accurate trajectory tracking.To mitigate the inherent differential explosion problem of the traditional backstepping framework,a finite-time stable command filter is incorporated.Simultaneously,considering transient filtering errors,a set of error compensation signals are designed to counter their negative impact effectively.Theoretical analysis affirms that the proposed control strategy ensures the boundedness of all signals within the closed-loop system.Additionally,under the specific condition of only time-invariant disturbances in the system,the conclusion of asymptotic stability is established.Finally,the algorithm’s efficacy is validated through comparative experiments.

文摘Behavioral recovery using(viable)peripheral nerve allografts to repair ablation-type(segmental-loss)peripheral nerve injuries is delayed or poor due to slow and inaccurate axonal regeneration.Furthermore,such peripheral nerve allografts undergo immunological rejection by the host immune system.In contrast,peripheral nerve injuries repaired by polyethylene glycol fusion of peripheral nerve allografts exhibit excellent behavioral recovery within weeks,reduced immune responses,and many axons do not undergo Wallerian degeneration.The relative contribution of neurorrhaphy and polyethylene glycol-fusion of axons versus the effects of polyethylene glycol per se was unknown prior to this study.We hypothesized that polyethylene glycol might have some immune-protective effects,but polyethylene glycol-fusion was necessary to prevent Wallerian degeneration and functional/behavioral recovery.We examined how polyethylene glycol solutions per se affect functional and behavioral recovery and peripheral nerve allograft morphological and immunological responses in the absence of polyethylene glycol-induced axonal fusion.Ablation-type sciatic nerve injuries in outbred Sprague–Dawley rats were repaired according to a modified protocol using the same solutions as polyethylene glycol-fused peripheral nerve allografts,but peripheral nerve allografts were loose-sutured(loose-sutured polyethylene glycol)with an intentional gap of 1–2 mm to prevent fusion by polyethylene glycol of peripheral nerve allograft axons with host axons.Similar to negative control peripheral nerve allografts not treated by polyethylene glycol and in contrast to polyethylene glycol-fused peripheral nerve allografts,animals with loose-sutured polyethylene glycol peripheral nerve allografts exhibited Wallerian degeneration for all axons and myelin degeneration by 7 days postoperatively and did not recover sciatic-mediated behavioral functions by 42 days postoperatively.Other morphological signs of rejection,such as collapsed Schwann cell basal lamina tubes,were absent in polyethylene glycol-fused peripheral nerve allografts but commonly observed in negative control and loose-sutured polyethylene glycol peripheral nerve allografts at 21 days postoperatively.Loose-sutured polyethylene glycol peripheral nerve allografts had more pro-inflammatory and less anti-inflammatory macrophages than negative control peripheral nerve allografts.While T cell counts were similarly high in loose-sutured-polyethylene glycol and negative control peripheral nerve allografts,loose-sutured polyethylene glycol peripheral nerve allografts expressed some cytokines/chemokines important for T cell activation at much lower levels at 14 days postoperatively.MHCI expression was elevated in loose-sutured polyethylene glycol peripheral nerve allografts,but MHCII expression was modestly lower compared to negative control at 21 days postoperatively.We conclude that,while polyethylene glycol per se reduces some immune responses of peripheral nerve allografts,successful polyethylene glycol-fusion repair of some axons is necessary to prevent Wallerian degeneration of those axons and immune rejection of peripheral nerve allografts,and produce recovery of sensory/motor functions and voluntary behaviors.Translation of polyethylene glycol-fusion technologies would produce a paradigm shift from the current clinical practice of waiting days to months to repair ablation peripheral nerve injuries.
文摘In this article,we comment on an article published in a recent issue of the World Journal of Gastroenterology.We specifically focus on the roles of human leukocyte antigen(HLA)and donor-specific antibodies(DSAs)in pediatric liver transpl-antation(LT),as well as the relationship between immune rejection after LT and DSA.Currently,LT remains the standard of care for pediatric patients with end-stage liver disease or severe acute liver failure.However,acute and chronic re-jection continues to be a significant cause of graft dysfunction and loss.HLA mismatch significantly reduces graft survival and increases the risk of acute rejection.Among them,D→R one-way mismatch at three loci was significantly related to graft-versus-host disease incidence after LT.The adverse impact of HLA-DSAs on LT recipients is already established.Therefore,the evaluation of HLA and DSA is crucial in pediatric LT.
文摘In recent years, the use of new biomarkers in different phases of the diagnosis andtreatment of several diseases has allowed substantial improvement in clinicalpractice. The use of donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) in organ transplantationhas led to significant progress in the treatment of post-transplantoutcomes, particularly after kidney transplantation. In addition, the use of ddcfDNAin organ transplantation has led to significant advancements in posttransplantoutcome monitoring. The aim of this study is to review many of therecent studies on the use of this biomarker and to evaluate its most relevantadvantages and limitations. dd-cfDNA is released from several types of cells ofthe transplanted organ, most often from endothelial cells and this happens in thecase of organ damage, most often rejection. Its presence in the bloodstream of therecipients is an important sign of graft damage;its principal advantage is in theavoidance of invasive tools such as renal biopsy. Additionally, several studiesreported that the finding of dd-cfDNA in the serum may precede histologicalabnormalities;its utility in the diagnosis of subclinical rejection is extremelyimportant. Among the principal limitations of this tool are the difficulty in distinguishingdifferent forms of graft damage. According to several studies this toolhas several limitations in diagnosing T-cell mediated rejection. In addition,particular care should be taken in distinguishing dd-cfDNA from recipientderivedcfDNA.
文摘1 Active Disturbance Rejection Control(ADRC):a brief survey Since its inception,Active Disturbance Rejection Control(ADRC)has re-centered feedback controller design around two fundamental ideas—along with a consequential design simplification:real-time estimation and online cancellation of the“total disturbance”conceived as the lumped effect of unknown internal dynamics and external inputs.The simplified design then proceeds in a customary fashion for the ideally remaining system model,which is devoid of the total disturbance.
