In the control group, diclofenac sodium sustained release tablets were prescribed for oral administration, 0.3 g each time, twice a day, methotrexate tablets(MTX) for oral administration,10 mg each time, once a week and folic acid tablets for oral administration, 5 mg each time, once a week. In the observation group, besides the treatment with western medicines, simultaneously, the specific acupoints were selected and stimulated with the triple strong-stimulation therapy, in which, the strong bloodletting technique, the strong cupping technique and the strong moxibustion technique were combined together, with different instruments of acupuncture and moxibustion adopted. The treatment was given once every 3 days, consecutively for 10 times. In 30 days of treatment, the therapeutic effects were observed in the two groups. Separately, before and after treatment, the rheumatoid factors(RF),hypersensitive-C reactive protein(hs-CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR), the scores of joint symptoms and physical signs as well as the disease activity score(DAS-28) were observed in the two groups.Results: Regarding RF, there were statistical significant differences before and after treatment in the observation group and the control group(the observation group 248.01 ± 79.81 vs 31.17 ± 29.01,the control group 254.11 ± 72.16 vs 66.42 ± 37.07, both P < 0.05). The result in the observation group was lower significantly than the control group after treatment(P < 0.05). Regarding hs-CRP, there were statistical significant differences before and after treatment in the observation group and the control group(the observation group 26.12 ± 9.22 vs 8.98 ± 7.66, the control group 23.18 ± 7.18 vs 16.01 ± 5.02, both P < 0.05). The result in the observation group was lower significantly than the control group after treatment(P < 0.05). Regarding ESR, there were statistical significant differences before and after treatment in the observation group and the control group(the observation group 30.56 ± 11.38 vs 12.58 ± 5.91,the control group 35.52 ± 9.67 vs 21.47 ± 6.91, both P < 0.05). The result in the observation group was lower significantly than the control group after treatment(P < 0.05). Regarding DAS-28, there were statistical significant differences before and after treatment in the observation group and the control group(the observation group 8.89 ± 2.01 vs 3.01 ± 0.74, the control group 8.14 ± 1.38 vs 4.12 ± 0.96, both P < 0.05). The result in the observation group was lower significantly than the control group after treatment(P < 0.05). Regarding the quantitative grading score of symptom, there were statistical significant differences before and after treatment in the observation group and the control group(the observation group 7.87 士 1.69 vs 3.82 ±1.96, the control group 7.77 ± 1.68 vs 5.01 ± 11.23, both P < 0.05). The result in the observation group was lower significantly than the control group after treatment(P < 0.05).The total effective rate was 96.67%(29/30) in the observation group and was 80.0%(24/30) in the control group, indicating the statistical significant difference between the two groups(P < 0.01).Conclusion: Based on western medications, the triple strong-stimulation therapy of acupuncture and moxibustion at specific acupoints significantly relieves the joint symptoms, reduces the inflammatory reaction indicators and improves the clinical therapeutic effects on RA in the patients.展开更多

The standard current-state opacity cannot completely characterize higher-level security. To ensure the higher-level security requirements of a time-dependent system, we propose a strong version of opacity known as strong current-state opacity. For any path(state-event sequence with time information)π derived from a real-time observation that ends at a secret state, the strong current-state opacity of the real-time observation signifies that there is a non-secret path with the same real-time observation as π. We propose general and non-secret state class graphs, which characterize the general and non-secret states of time-dependent systems, respectively. To capture the observable behavior of non-secret states, a non-secret observer is proposed.Finally, we develop a structure called a real-time concurrent verifier to verify the strong current-state opacity of time labeled Petri nets. This approach is efficient since the real-time concurrent verifier can be constructed by solving a certain number of linear programming problems.展开更多

文摘The present investigation introduces a composite frequency selective Rasorber(CFSR)that demonstrates a wide−1 dB transmission band,two high absorption bands with absorptivity higher than 90%,and large oblique incidence angles up to 60°.The CFSR consists of four functional layers separated by three dielectric slabs,which includes lossless metasurface-Ⅰ(MS-Ⅰ),loss metasurface-Ⅱ(MS-Ⅱ),loss metasurface-Ⅲ(MS-Ⅲ),and a three-dimensional metastructure(3D-MS).MS-Ⅰfunctions as a reflector for two absorption bands with a minimal insertion loss transmission window.MS-Ⅱis designed for high-frequency absorption.MS-Ⅲserves as a low-frequency absorption layer for CFSR and an impedance matching layer for MS-Ⅱ.The design methodologies for the transmission window in MS-III and the introduction of 3D-MS are key to achieving high-performance CFSR.The physical mechanisms of CFSR are explained through equivalent circuit model(ECM)analysis and impedance characterization.Finally,measurement results confirm that the proposed CFSR exhibits a−1 dB transmission band ranging from 8.79 to 10.41 GHz with a minimum insertion loss of 0.44 dB at 9.59 GHz;furthermore,the frequency range where reflection coefficient remains below−10 dB is measured to be between 3.33 and 18.00 GHz,aligning well with simulation outcomes.
文摘HE Tangs,a family of three from Hebei Province in north China,were full of gasps of admiration as they went on a Hengqin-Macao bay cruise in southern China.The cruise started from Hengqin,a small island with remarkable economic achievements on the Chinese mainland,and then went past the picturesque Macao Special Administrative Region.The passengers frantically clicked away at the passing landmarks-the 338-meter Macao Tower,one of Macao’s most iconic architectures,the four spectacular sea-crossing bridges connecting Macao Peninsula and Macao’s Taipa Island,and of course the Hong Kong-Zhu-hai-Macao Bridge,the longest bridge-cum-tunnel sea crossing in the world linking Hong Kong with the city of Zhuhai on the mainland.
文摘In 2024,the world witnessed further transformation and instability,marked by protracted and intensified geopolitical conflicts,repeated attempts to decouple and sever supply chains,and the rapid rise of the Global South.It has become all the more clear where the once-in-a-century transformations are heading.In 2024,China acted on the blueprint drawn up at the Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China(CPC),and made big strides in deepening reform comprehensively.Marking the 75th anniversary of the founding of New China,China carried forward its great cause of national development and pressed ahead with Chinese modernization with vigor and determination.

文摘This paper addresses the verification of strong currentstate opacity with respect to real-time observations generated from a discrete-event system that is modeled with time labeled Petri nets. The standard current-state opacity cannot completely characterize higher-level security. To ensure the higher-level security requirements of a time-dependent system, we propose a strong version of opacity known as strong current-state opacity. For any path(state-event sequence with time information)π derived from a real-time observation that ends at a secret state, the strong current-state opacity of the real-time observation signifies that there is a non-secret path with the same real-time observation as π. We propose general and non-secret state class graphs, which characterize the general and non-secret states of time-dependent systems, respectively. To capture the observable behavior of non-secret states, a non-secret observer is proposed.Finally, we develop a structure called a real-time concurrent verifier to verify the strong current-state opacity of time labeled Petri nets. This approach is efficient since the real-time concurrent verifier can be constructed by solving a certain number of linear programming problems.

文摘Interface issues have consistently impeded efforts to balance a trade-off between the conductivity functionality and mechanical properties of Cu-matrix composites.Combining first-principles simulations,this study addresses this challenge by preparing a new Cumatrix composite reinforced with MXene,Cu/Ag@MXene composite block(CuAM-CB),which improves the compatibility between metallic Cu and nonmetallic MXene facilitated by Ag modification anchored in situ onto MXene nanosheets,thus realizing element-coupled reinforcement of Ag at the Cu/MXene heterointerfaces.Benefiting from the strong interaction between Ag and C atoms from in situ self-reduction,as well as the excellent compatibility between Ag and Cu atoms(both IB group metals),Ag atoms act as a mediator for the electron transport and mechanical connection at the Cu/MXene heterointerfaces,enabling CuAM-CB to achieve integrated high conductivity functionality(up to 95%IACS)and strong mechanical properties(with a strength-plasticity product of∼18 GPa%).
文摘Strong provincial capital is an important initiative for underdeveloped regions to realize rapid regional economic development through leading by point,which is related to the overall situation of China's economic high-quality development.This paper theoretically analyzes the internal mechanism of strong provincial capitals affecting regional innovation efficiency.The study finds that the policy of strong provincial capitals promotes the formation of the resource aggregation effect in the capital cities,attracts talents,technologies,policies,and capital and other factors,improves the efficiency and quality of innovation,and drives the development of neighboring regions.However,over-implementation of the policy will lead to a large number of big enterprises,"which will lead to rent-seeking,waste of resources,crowding out of government subsidies and congestion effects,inhibit innovation,and lead to the loss of innovation factors in peripheral cities,dragging down the innovation level of the whole province.Therefore,the relationship between strong provincial capitals and innovation is an inverted"U"shape,and this study is of great significance for understanding the double-edged sword effect of strong provincial capitals and formulating scientific regional innovation policies.

文摘We consider the Cauchy problem for the three-dimensional pressureless Navier-Stokes/Navier-Stokes system,which consists of the pressureless Navier-Stokes equations for(n,w)coupled with the isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations for(ρ,u)through a drag force term n(w−u).We prove the global existence of strong solutions to the coupled system when the initial data are small perturbations of the constant equilibrium state.However,due to the pressureless structure,one can only deal with the density n of the pressureless flow through the transport equation and it is crucial to obtain the exact time-decay rates for the corresponding velocity w of the pressureless flow.To this end,we make use of the spectral analysis,low-high frequency decomposition and time-weighted energy method to deduce the large time behavior of(w,ρ,u)and consequently establish the Lyapunov stability of the density n in Sobolev space.

文摘Maintaining high metal dispersion of supported metal catalysts to achieve superior reactivity under harsh conditions poses one of the main challenges for their practical applications.Constructing and regulating the strong metal-support interactions(SMSI)by diverse methodologies has emerged as one of the promising approaches to fabricating robust supported metal catalysts.In this study,we report an L-ascorbic acid(AA)-inducing strategy to generate SMSI on a titania-supported gold(Au)catalyst after high-temperature treatment in an inert atmosphere(600℃,N_(2)).The AA-induced SMSI can efficiently stabilize Au nanoparticles(NPs)and preserve their catalytic performance.The detailed study reveals that the key to realizing this SMSI is the generation of oxygen vacancies within the TiO_(2) support induced by the adsorbed AA,which drives the formation of the Ti Oxpermeable layer onto the Au NPs.The strategy could be extended to TiO_(2)-supported Au catalysts with different crystal phases and platinum group metals,such as Pt,Pd,and Rh.This work offers a promising novel route to design stable and efficient supported noble metal catalysts by constructing SMSI using simple reducing organic adsorbent.

文摘Strong polyelectrolyte brushes(SPBs)play an important role in enabling material surface functionalization due to their unique stimuli-responsive properties.Although the unexpected pH responsiveness of SPBs has been revealed in the past ten years,it is still unclear if the pH-responsive properties of SPBs are affected by the brush thickness.In this study,we employed the positively charged poly[2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride(PMETAC)and negatively charged sodium poly(styrenesulfonate)(NaPSS)brushes as model systems to explore the effect of thickness on the pH-responsive properties of SPBs.The results demonstrate that the pH-responsive properties of SPBs manifest different dependences on the brush thickness.Specifically,for both PMETAC and NaPSS brushes,the pH-responsive hydration and stiffness are influenced by the thickness,and the pH-responsive wettability and adhesion are almost unaffected by the thickness.This work not only provides a clear understanding of the relationship between the brush thickness and the pH responsiveness of SPBs,but also offers a new method to control the pH-responsive properties of SPBs.
