This study estimated the potential effectiveness of expanding coverage with high impact interventions using the Lives Saved Tool (LiST). It was found that gestational hypertension, antepartum and postpartum hemorrhage, preterm birth, neonatal asphyxia, and neonatal childhood pneumonia and diarrhea are still the major killers of mothers and children in rural area in China. It was estimated that 30% of deaths among 0-59 month old children and 25% of maternal deaths in 2008 could be prevented in 2015 if primary health care intervention coverage expanded to a feasible level. The LiST death cause framework, compared to data from the Maternal and Child Mortality Surveillance System, represents 60%-80% of neonatal deaths, 40%-50% of deaths in 1-59 month old children and 40%-60% of maternal deaths in rural areas of western China.展开更多

文摘Heating,ventilation,and air conditioning(HVAC)systems contribute substantially to global energy consumption,while rejecting significant amounts of low-grade heat into the environment.This paper presents a nonintrusive spiral-coil heat exchanger designed to recover waste heat from the outdoor condenser of a split-type air conditioner.The system operates externally without altering the existing HVAC configuration,thereby rendering it suitable for retrofitting.Water was circulated as the working fluid at flow rates of 0.028–0.052 kg/s to assess thermal performance.Performance indicators,including the outlet water temperature,heat transfer rate,convective coefficient,and efficiency,were systematically evaluated.The system achieved a maximum outlet water temperature of 67℃and a peak thermal efficiency of 91.07%at the highest flow rate.The uncertainty analysis confirmed reliable measurements within±3.45%.The monthly energy savings were estimated at 178.35 kWh,accompanied by a reduction in CO_(2)emissions of up to 187.26 kg,yielding a short payback period of 1.06 years.These results demonstrate the feasibility of spiral-coil heat exchangers as cost-effective and eco-friendly alternatives to conventional electric water heaters.The proposed approach not only enhances the overall energy utilization but also contributes to energy conservation and climate mitigation objectives.

文摘[Objectives]This study was conducted to improve the seed production efficiency of water-saving and drought-resistant hybrid millet in production.[Methods]A high-efficiency seed production technology for water-saving and drought-resistant hybrid millet varieties was developed by integrating aspects such as parental line sources,botanical characteristics,biological traits,seed production yield structure,key technical points of seed production,and suitable planting regions.[Results]Under standardized pre-sowing preparation and field management,both parents are simultaneously sown around May 20 with a planting row ratio of 2:6(female:male),a row spacing of 20 cm and plant spacing of 10 cm for the female parent,and a row spacing of 35 cm and plant spacing of 15 cm for the male parent.Both parents are fertilized simultaneously with 375 kg/hm^(2) of urea at the booting stage combined with intertillage or rainfall,and 225 kg/hm^(2) of urea at the grain-filling stage combined with irrigation.Strict hybrid removal,proper pollination and timely harvesting can significantly increase the yield of seed production.[Conclusions]This technology can be fully applied to large-scale seed production of water-saving and drought-resistant hybrid millet,providing seed supply support for cultivation in arid and semi-arid regions.It helps alleviate issues such as excessive groundwater extraction and water scarcity while enhancing planting efficiency,increasing yield,and boosting increase of farmers income.

文摘The advancement of sophisticated smart windows exhibiting superior thermoregulation capabilities in both solar spectrum and long-wave infrared range maintains a prominent objective for researchers in this field.In this study,a Janus window is proposed and prepared based on polymer-stabilized liquid-crystal films/thermochromic materials.It can achieve switchable front long-wave infrared emissivity(ε_(Front))and solar modulation ability(ΔT_(sol))through dynamic flipping,making it suitable for different seasonal energy-saving requirements.Outdoor experiments show that under daytime illumination,the indoor temperature decreases by 8℃,and the nighttime temperature drops by 5℃.MATLAB simulation calculations indicate that the daytime cooling power is 93 W m^(-2),while the nighttime cooling power reaches 142 W m^(-2).Interestingly,by modifying the conductive layer,it can effectively shield electromagnetic radiation(within the X-band frequency range(8.2-12.4)GHz).Energy simulation reveals the substantial superiority of this device in energy savings compared with single-layer polymer-stabilized liquid crystal,poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide),and normal glass when applied in different climate zones.This research presents a compelling opportunity for the development of sophisticated smart windows characterized by exceptional thermoregulation capabilities.
