LAS services involve requests and responses concerning public and private cadastral data, including credentials of parties, ownership, and spatial parcels. This study explores the integration of CTI in LAS to enhance cyber resilience, focusing on the unique vulnerabilities of LAS, such as sensitive data management and interconnection with other critical systems related to spatial data uses and changes. The approach employs a case study of a typical country-specific LAS to analyse structured vulnerabilities and their attributes to determine the degree of vulnerability of LAS through a quantitative inductive approach. The analysis results indicate significant improvements in identifying and mitigating potential threats through CTI integration, thus enhancing cyber resilience. These findings are crucial for policymakers and practitioners to develop robust cybersecurity strategies for LAS.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND L-arginine(L-Arg)is one of the most widely used amino acids in dietary and pharmacological products.However,the evidence on its usefulness and dose limitations,especially in diabetics is still controversial.AIM To investigate the effects of chronic administration of different doses of L-Arg on the cardiac muscle of type 2 diabetic rats.METHODS Of 96 male rats were divided into 8 groups as follows(n=12):Control,0.5 g/kg L-Arg,1 g/kg L-Arg,1.5 g/kg L-Arg,diabetic,diabetic+0.5 g/kg L-Arg,diabetic+1 g/kg L-Arg,and diabetic+1.5 g/kg L-Arg;whereas L-Arg was orally administered for 3 months to all treated groups.RESULTS L-Arg produced a moderate upregulation of blood glucose levels to normal rats,but when given to diabetics a significant upregulation was observed,associated with increased nitric oxide,inflammatory cytokines,and malonaldehyde levels in diabetic rats treated with 1 g/kg L-Arg and 1.5 g/kg L-Arg.A substantial decrease in the antioxidant capacity,superoxide dismutase,catalase,glutathione peroxidase,reduced glutathione concentrations,and Nrf-2 tissue depletion were observed at 1 g/kg and 1.5 g/kg L-Arg diabetic treated groups,associated with myocardial injury,fibrosis,α-smooth muscle actin upregulation,and disruption of desmin cardiac myofilaments,and these effects were not noticeable at normal treated groups.On the other hand,L-Arg could significantly improve the lipid profile of diabetic rats and decrease their body weights.CONCLUSION L-Arg dose of 1 g/kg or more can exacerbates the diabetes injurious effects on the myocardium,while 0.5 g/kg dose can improve the lipid profile and decrease the body weight.

文摘BACKGROUND Managing sudden deafness(SD)in patients with diabetes mellitus(DM)is partic-ularly challenging due to the heightened risk of adverse effects associated with systemic drug administration.This study explores the potential of retroauricular subperiosteal injection as a localized drug delivery method for a more effective and safe treatment.AIM To compare the efficacy of retroauricular subperiosteal injection vs systemic intravenous glucocorticoid(GC)administration for SD in patients with DM and assess the effects on blood glucose levels.METHODS A total of 128 cases of type 2 DM(T2DM)with SD diagnosed and treated in Zibo Central Hospital from February 2021 to July 2023 were divided into two groups:An observation group(66 cases receiving retroauricular subperiosteal injection of methylprednisolone)and a control group(62 cases receiving systemic intravenous administration of methylprednisolone).The two groups were compared in terms of therapeutic efficacy,hearing recovery,blood glucose level changes,and incidence of adverse reactions.Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the factors affecting therapeutic efficacy.RESULTS The observation group showed a significantly higher total effective rate(90.91%)compared with the control group(75.81%,P<0.05).Additionally,pure-tone hearing threshold,fasting plasma glucose,and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose were significantly lower in the observation group compared with the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions was also lower in the observation group than in the control group(7.58%vs 22.58%,P<0.05).A T2DM course longer than 5 years and systemic intravenous GC administration were identified as independent risk factors for treatment inefficacy(P<0.05).INTRODUCTION Sudden deafness(SD)is a clinical emergency characterized by rapid-onset hearing loss that is often accompanied by clinical symptoms such as tinnitus and vertigo[1].Although its pathogenesis remains unclear,it is supposedly associated with factors,including inner ear microcirculation disorders,autoimmune diseases,and viral infections[2,3].Patients with diabetes are particularly susceptible to microvascular complications due to poor long-term glycemic control,affecting the ear’s microcirculation,subsequently increasing the risk of SD[4].Type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM),a chronic metabolic disease,causes multiple microvascular damages throughout the body,complicating SD treatment in patients with diabetes[5,6].Inner ear microcirculation disturbances in patients with diabetes may exacerbate the risk of SD,and its pathological process may be related to vascular endothelial dysfunction,inflammatory reactions,and hemorrhological changes caused by diabetes mellitus(DM)[7].Current SD treatments include glucocorticoids(GCs),vasodilators,and hyperbaric oxygen therapy[8].GCs are widely used due to their anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects[9].However,systemic GCs may cause blood glucose(BG)fluctuations and even increase the risk of complications in patients with DM,limiting their clinical use in this population[10].Therefore,there is a compelling and immediate need for a local alternative solution that minimally affects the metabolic mechanisms.In recent years,retroauricular subperiosteal injection has emerged as a localized administration modality for treating SD[11].This method allows drugs to directly act on the inner ear,avoiding the side effects of systemic administration and having a minor impact on BG levels,providing a potentially effective treatment for patients with diabetes[12].However,there is limited clinical evidence to compare the efficacy and glycaemic effects of retroauricular subperiosteal injection vs systemic intravenous GC administration in patients with SD and diabetes.This study aimed to explore the efficacy of retroauricular subperiosteal injection and systemic intravenous GC administration for treating patients with SD and DM and their effects on BG,providing a safer and more effective clinical treatment approach.
文摘Objective:To analyze the effectiveness of the matrix medical administration model in enhancing medical safety management.Method:A total of 39 medical incidents in the hospital from September 2020 to September 2022 were selected as the reference group,implementing conventional medical administration.Another 39 medical incidents from October 2022 to October 2024 were chosen as the experimental group,adopting the matrix medical administration model.The practical indicators such as causes of medical disputes,dispute compensation,medical injury appraisal results,and diagnosis and treatment quality indicators were compared between the two groups.Results:In the experimental group,the primary reasons for medical disputes were patient-related,and most disputes resulted in no compensation.After medical injury appraisal,most cases were not considered medical injuries.The comparison between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0.05).The diagnosis and treatment quality indicators of the experimental group were superior to those of the reference group(P<0.05).Conclusion:The matrix medical administration model can reduce medical disputes caused by hospital factors,decrease the proportion of compensation and the incidence of medical injuries,and improve the quality of diagnosis and treatment,demonstrating high management effectiveness.

文摘As a prominent mode of variability in the tropical stratosphere on the interannual timescale,the Quasi-Biennial Oscillation(QBO)can significantly influence global atmospheric circulation and weather patterns.This study explores the dynamic processes of QBO disruptions using the integrated climate model of the China Meteorological Administration(CMA)by nudging the tropical zonal winds toward observations.A comparative analysis with ERA5 reanalysis data shows that the nudged runs accurately replicate the general characteristics of the QBO,including the alternating QBO wind regimes and QBO disruption events.The evolution of the QBO winds is diagnosed using empirical orthogonal function and root-mean-square difference analyses,and the rarity of the disruption events is confirmed in the CMA model.Different aspects of the QBO disruptions and the relevant dynamics are present in the model.Firstly,the momentum budget analysis highlights the crucial roles of extratropical Rossby waves and non-orographic gravity waves in the transition from westerly to easterly winds during a disruption.Secondly,Kelvin waves and non-orographic gravity waves explain much of the transition from easterly to westerly winds near 40 hPa.Thirdly,the positive tendency from enhanced vertical advection further accelerates westerly momentum development via secondary meridional circulation.These findings underscore the importance of nudging techniques in understanding QBO dynamics,which provides valuable insights for future climate model improvements toward better forecasting QBO-related climate variability.Notably,due to model limitations,no QBO disruptions were simulated in the free-run experiments.

文摘Insufficient alveolar bone thickness increases the risk of periodontal dehiscence and fenestration,especially in orthodontic tooth movement.Abaloparatide(ABL),a synthetic analog of human PTHr P(1–34)and a clinical medication for treating osteoporosis,has recently demonstrated its potential in enhancing craniofacial bone formation.Herein,we show that intraoral submucosal injection of ABL,when combined with mechanical force,promotes in situ alveolar bone thickening.The newly formed bone is primarily located outside the original compact bone,implying its origin from the periosteum.RNA sequencing of the alveolar bone tissue revealed that the focal adhesion(FA)pathway potentially mediates this bioprocess.Local injection of ABL alone enhances cell proliferation,collagen synthesis,and phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase(FAK)in the alveolar periosteum;when ABL is combined with mechanical force,the FAK expression is upregulated,in line with the accomplishment of the ossification.In vitro,ABL enhances proliferation,migration,and FAK phosphorylation in periosteal stem cells.Furthermore,the pro-osteogenic effects of ABL on alveolar bone are entirely blocked when FAK activity is inhibited by a specific inhibitor.In summary,abaloparatide combined with mechanical force promotes alveolar bone formation via FAK-mediated periosteal osteogenesis.Thus,we have introduced a promising therapeutic approach for drug-induced in situ alveolar bone augmentation,which may prevent or repair the detrimental periodontal dehiscence,holding significant potential in dentistry.
