Web-based interventions are highly beneficial for many individuals of all ages since they are accessible, convenient, private, cost-effective, and can impact on a large scale. Since there is no study examining the impact of web-based mindfulness yoga programs on insomnia, sleep quality, and beliefs in their ideal care, this study is worthy of investigation. Methods: A total of 27 care workers who met all criteria from care service centers for the elderly in the Kyushu area, Japan, completed the Insomnia Severity Index, Sleep Quality Scale extracted from the Oguri-Shirakawa-Azumi Sleep Inventory, and Caregivers’ Belief in Ideal Care before and after practicing a web-based mindfulness yoga program. We employed a within-subject design to investigate the effect of mindfulness yoga on those measured surveys. Results: Repeated-measures ANOVAs were performed by comparing the ISI-J, CBIC, and Sleep Quality Scale before and after the intervention. The results revealed that participants significantly improved their insomnia, sleep quality, and beliefs in ideal care, which were assessed after the intervention compared to before the intervention. Conclusion: Web-based interventions are extremely beneficial for many individuals of all ages since they are accessible, convenient, private, cost-effective, and can impact on a large scale. Furthermore, given that alleviating poor work environment may be associated with mitigating high turnover rates and prevention of maltreatment of their elderly clients, this study has added to current literature the crucial roles of web-based intervention programs. We hope that our findings will encourage the provision of web-based intervention programs where caregivers can practice them during their break or at home.展开更多

文摘In the process of developing oil and gas resources in the Arctic,the impact of icebergs can pose a considerable threat to the structural safety of semi-submersible mooring platforms in ice regions.On the basis of the arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian(ALE)algorithm,a numerical model for the interaction between an iceberg and a semi-submersible mooring platform is built in this work.First,a mooring system with a link element is designed and validated.An ice material model for the target iceberg is built and validated.A numerical model for the interaction between an iceberg and a semi-submersible mooring platform is then built.A parametric study(cable angle,tension angle and number of cables)is carried out to study the performance of the mooring system.The collision process between the semi-submersible mooring platform and the iceberg in the polar marine environment can be predicted by the present numerical model,and then the optimal mooring arrangement scheme can be obtained.The research results in this work can provide a reference for the design of mooring systems.

文摘As a high-value eudicot family,many famous horticultural crop genomes have been deciphered in Oleaceae.However,there are currently no bioinformatics platforms focused on empowering genome research in Oleaceae.Herein,we developed the first comprehensive Oleaceae Genome Research Platform(OGRP,https://oleaceae.cgrpoee.top/).In OGRP,70 genomes of 10 Oleaceae species and 46 eudicots and 366 transcriptomes involving 18 Oleaceae plant tissues can be obtained.We built 34 window-operated bioinformatics tools,collected 38 professional practical software programs,and proposed 3 new pipelines,namely ancient polyploidization identification,ancestral karyotype reconstruction,and gene family evolution.Employing these pipelines to reanalyze the Oleaceae genomes,we clarified the polyploidization,reconstructed the ancestral karyotypes,and explored the effects of paleogenome evolution on genes with specific biological regulatory roles.Significantly,we generated a series of comparative genomic resources focusing on the Oleaceae,comprising 108 genomic synteny dot plots,1952225 collinear gene pairs,multiple genome alignments,and imprints of paleochromosome rearrangements.Moreover,in Oleaceae genomes,researchers can efficiently search for 1785987 functional annotations,22584 orthogroups,29582 important trait genes from 74 gene families,12664 transcription factor-related genes,9178872 transposable elements,and all involved regulatory pathways.In addition,we provided downloads and usage instructions for the tools,a species encyclopedia,ecological resources,relevant literatures,and external database links.In short,ORGP integrates rich data resources and powerful analytical tools with the characteristic of continuous updating,which can efficiently empower genome research and agricultural breeding in Oleaceae and other plants.

文摘In recent years,gig economy jobs-particularly those of food delivery and ride-hailing drivers-have rapidly emerged as a significant force in the labor market,reflecting the deep integration of China’s digital and real economies.This paper examines how digital platforms that support the gig economy exercise directionality and dominance in labor matching,where the platform dictates which consumers workers serve,rather than allowing independent choice.While this platform-led matching may appear to limit consumer and worker autonomy,it actually arises from the platform’s central role in information flow and its technological capabilities,serving as a foundation for the platform’s ability to create large-scale employment through cross-side network effects.Using a theoretical model that integrates digital platforms,labor markets,and product markets,the paper explores how the efficiency of targeted matching affects employment creation.In the early stages of gig economy development,when targeted matching efficiency is low,improvements in assignment efficiency lead to a net increase in gig employment,worker income,and overall social welfare.However,in the later stages,as targeted matching efficiency improves,the potential for monopoly abuse by incumbent platforms may trigger a crowding-out effect,leading to unemployment,income inequality between platforms and workers,and higher commission fees.While fostering competition within platform markets offers benefits,policymakers should avoid excessively low entry barriers,as these can negatively impact incumbent platforms’decisions regarding labor,pricing,and technology investment.
文摘Against the backdrop of the rapid development of digitalization today,the platform economy,as an emerging economic form,is profoundly changing the operation mode and resource allocation methods of the labor market.The efficiency of labor resource allocation is an important indicator to measure the vitality and potential of economic development in a country or region.It is not only related to the welfare level of workers but also directly affects the productivity level and development quality of the entire society.With the help of modern information technology means such as Internet technology,big data algorithms,and mobile communication devices,the platform economy closely connects originally scattered individual workers with employers,building a large and complex networked trading platform.Based on this,this paper focuses on the impact and role of the platform economy on the efficiency of labor resource allocation,aiming to stabilize the efficient operation of the labor market.

文摘Pullorum disease and fowl typhoid are caused by the Salmonella serovars Gallinarum biovars Pullorum and Gal-linarum,respectively.The prevalence of these diseases varies across regions and is affected by different risk fac-tors that remain insufficiently documented.To fill this knowledge gap,we have compiled a global dataset for its prevalence,drawing upon a collection of literature from the last seven decades obtained from bilingual databases.However,a more interactive and dynamic platform is still needed for both academics and policymakers to improve biosecurity measures,limit disease transmission,and prevent future outbreaks at the global and local levels.Here,we developed an advanced visualization platform to depict the prevalence of Salmonella Pullorum and Gallinarum,espe-cially in China,which is categorized by geographical region and temporal span.The platform offers a user-friendly,efficient,and visually engaging tool to explore the prevalence of pullorum disease and fowl typhoid between 1945 and 2021 in different regions.Additionally,this platform allows users to understand the influence of various fac-tors,such as breed,farm mode,economic usage and even the sex of the primary host,chickens,on the prevalence of this disease.We further provided a detailed overview of individual province within China.In particular,by selecting two different provinces on the interface,users can quickly visualize and grasp the disparities in disease prevalence between the chosen regions.This interactive toolkit enables a dynamic exploration of the patterns and factors con-tributing to the prevalence of Salmonella Pullorum and Gallinarum.This interactive platform is freely available open source at http://139.9.85.208/.

文摘The Cambrian platform margin in the Tarim Basin boasts favorable source-reservoir-cap assemblages,making it a significant target for hydrocarbon exploration in ultra-to extra-deep facies-controlled for-mations.Of the three major basins in western China,Tarim is the only basin with large-scale platform margin where no exploration breakthrough has been achieved yet.This study determines the vertical and lateral differential evolution of the platform margin(in the Manxi area hereafter referred to as the Cambrian Manxi platform margin)through fine-scale sequence stratigraphic division and a segmented analysis.The platform margin can be divided into the Yuqi,Tahe,Shunbei,and Gucheng segments,from north to south,based on the development of different ancient landforms and the evolutionary process of the platform.The Yuqi and Shunbei segments exhibit relatively low-elevation ancient landforms.Both segments were in a submarine buildup stage during the Early Cambrian,resulting in overall limited scales of their reservoirs.The Gucheng segment features the highest-elevation ancient landforms and accordingly limited accommodation spaces.As a result,the rapid lateral migration of high-energy facies zones leads to the development of large-scale reservoirs with only limited thicknesses.In contrast,the Tahe segment,exhibiting comparatively high-elevation ancient landforms,is identified as the most favorable segment for the formation of large-scale reservoirs.The cap rocks of the platform margin are dominated by back-reef dolomitic flats and tight carbonate rocks formed in transgressive periods.A comprehensive evaluation of source rocks,reservoirs,and cap rocks indicates that the Tahe segment boasts the optimal hydrocarbon accumulation conditions along the platform margin.In this segment,the Shayilike Formation transgressive deposits and the high-energy mound-shoal complexes along the platform margin of the Wusonggeer Formation constitute the optimal reservoir-cap rock assemblage,establishing this segment as the most promising target for hydrocarbon exploration in the platform margin.

文摘Platform-style construction is a widely recognized and well-established approach among engineers and developers for multi-story mass timber buildings.This construction method offers many advantages,such as rapid assembly,an excellent strength-to-weight ratio,and appealing aesthetic features.In a platform-type construction,each story is constructed by placing the floor panels on top of the load-bearing wall,creating a platform for the level above.Although this method offers numerous advantages,recent research findings have revealed that cross-laminated(CLT)platform buildings with conventional connections,such as wall-to-floor hold-down brackets and shear connectors with nails and screws,are prone to experience a high degree of damage under design-level earthquakes.Consequently,conventional connections in platform-type construction are vulnerable to more damage under aftershocks and do not meet the damage avoidance requirements of seismic design.This paper introduces an innovative floor-to-wall connection for a platform-type low-rise mass timber building that mitigates the limitations of conventional connections.The effectiveness of the proposed connection has been investigated,and the seismic performance of the system,which incorporates the proposed connection,has been outlined in this paper.A numerical model with an innovative inter-story isolation system is developed in ETABS,and the seismic performance of the isolated structure was evaluated using Response Spectrum Analysis(RSA)and Nonlinear Time History Analysis(NLTHA).This study revealed that inter-story isolation systems significantly reduced the seismic demands on the mass timber components,demonstrating the system’s ability to dissipate seismic energy.Additionally,the system displayed effective energy dissipation while exhibiting self-centering behaviour.
