In recent years, research has shown significant potential for Mg to become a "technology metal"in a variety of new applications from energy storage/battery to biomedical products. However, global Mg production has shown steady but moderate growth in the last three decades. Mg applications as an industry metal are still limited due to some sustainability concerns of primary Mg production, as well as a number of technical issues related to the structural and corrosion performance of commercial Mg alloys.New Mg applications as an industrial or technology metal face tremendous technical challenges, which have been reflected in the intensified global research efforts in the last twenty years. This paper will review some past and present applications, and discuss future opportunities and challenges for Mg research and applications for the global Mg community.展开更多

文摘As the lightest structural metal and one of the most abundant metallic elements on earth, magnesium(Mg) has been used as an "industrial metal" for lightweighting in the transportation and electronics industries, in addition to other traditional applications in aluminum alloying,steel desulfurization and protective anodes. In recent years, research has shown significant potential for Mg to become a "technology metal"in a variety of new applications from energy storage/battery to biomedical products. However, global Mg production has shown steady but moderate growth in the last three decades. Mg applications as an industry metal are still limited due to some sustainability concerns of primary Mg production, as well as a number of technical issues related to the structural and corrosion performance of commercial Mg alloys.New Mg applications as an industrial or technology metal face tremendous technical challenges, which have been reflected in the intensified global research efforts in the last twenty years. This paper will review some past and present applications, and discuss future opportunities and challenges for Mg research and applications for the global Mg community.
文摘Mobile health apps (MHAs) and medical apps (MAs) are becoming increasinglypopular as digital interventions in a wide range of health-related applications inalmost all sectors of healthcare. The surge in demand for digital medical solutionshas been accelerated by the need for new diagnostic and therapeutic methods inthe current coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. This also applies to clinicalpractice in gastroenterology, which has, in many respects, undergone a recentdigital transformation with numerous consequences that will impact patients andhealth care professionals in the near future. MHAs and MAs are considered tohave great potential, especially for chronic diseases, as they can support the selfmanagementof patients in many ways. Despite the great potential associated withthe application of MHAs and MAs in gastroenterology and health care in general,there are numerous challenges to be met in the future, including both the ethicaland legal aspects of applying this technology. The aim of this article is to providean overview of the current status of MHA and MA use in the field ofgastroenterology, describe the future perspectives in this field and point out someof the challenges that need to be addressed.

文摘The Health Action Process Approach(HAPA),developed by German psychologist Schwarzer in the 1980s,provides a comprehensive framework for understanding and influencing health behavior change.By dividing behavior change into three dynamic stages-pre-intention,intention,and action-HAPA highlights the critical role of self-efficacy as a driving force in adopting healthier behaviors.This stage-based approach addresses the limitations of continuous health behavior models by emphasizing individual differentiation and recognizing that behavior change is not linear but progresses through distinct phases.HAPA theory has demonstrated significant potential in clinical applications,particularly in orthopedic postoperative patients.Its implementation facilitates the development of positive behavioral intentions,enhances self-efficacy,and supports sustained health action,ultimately improving patients’health outcomes and quality of life.Tailored interventions based on HAPA stages ensure that patients receive appropriate guidance and support throughout their recovery journey.Despite its successes,limitations remain.Future research should focus on expanding the application of HAPA to various orthopedic conditions and developing more targeted behavioral plans and health education programs to optimize patient rehabilitation.Additionally,further exploration is needed to sustain HAPA’s effectiveness during long-term recovery.Strengthening interdisciplinary collaboration and integrating HAPA with other theoretical models could create a more comprehensive health behavior education system,providing robust support for orthopedic patients and advancing their overall recovery and well-being.
文摘This study aimed to optimize the application rates and base-topdressing ratios of nitrogen and potassium for flue-cured tobacco in Chaling,Zhuzhou,Hunan.The tobacco variety‘Yunyan 87’was planted and subjected to eight different treatments with different application rates and base-topdressing ratios of nitrogen and potassium.The effect of different treatments on the agronomic traits,dry matter accumulation,yield,and quality of tobacco were compared.The results showed that the growth period of each treatment became shortened as the application rates of nitrogen and potassium decreased and as the base-topdressing ratios of nitrogen and potassium increased.The dry matter accumulation decreased with the reduction in the application rates of nitrogen and potassium.The yield and output value of T1 were the highest,reaching 2097.39 kg/hm^(2)and 65018.90 yuan/hm^(2),respectively,both significantly increasing by 57.5%compared with those of the control(CK).In addition,the proportions of leaves of high and mid-high grade in T1 were also the highest,reaching 73.31%and 88.79%,respectively,both higher than those of CK.The appearance evaluation results showed that the appearance quality scores of tobacco leaves of grades B2F and C3F in T1 were the highest,reaching 51 points,both of which were 3 points higher than that those of CK.All the treatments were consistent in terms of color,maturity,leaf structure,body,oil,and color intensity.Therefore,it was suggested that the tobacco production in Chaling should appropriately increase the proportions of nitrogen and potassium as base fertilizers on the basis of conventional fertilization,which was conducive to improving the yield and appearance quality of flue-cured tobacco.
文摘BACKGROUND Early detection of acute appendicitis(AA)in pediatric cases,critical to avoiding life-threatening complications such as perforation or abscess,remains challenging.AIM To evaluate the utility of abdominal ultrasonography(AUS)in diagnosing pediatric AA.METHODS Overall,102 pediatric patients(aged 3-12 years)suspected of having AA were enrolled and divided into the AA(n=78)and non-AA(n=24)groups.All children underwent AUS and computed tomography(CT).Comparative analyses regarding general patient characteristics and appendix-specific parameters were conducted.The diagnostic performance of AUS and CT in pediatric AA was evaluated.RESULTS All appendix-related parameters were greater in the AA group than in the non-AA group.The areas under the receiver-operating characteristic curves for pediatric AA diagnosis using AUS,CT,and AUS+CT were 0.870,0.824,and 0.931(all P<0.001),respectively(AUS:94.87%sensitivity,79.17%specificity;CT:89.74%sensitivity,75.00%specificity;combined:98.72%sensitivity,87.50%specificity).The positive predictive value(PPV),negative predictive value(NPV),accuracy rate,positive detection rate,and misdiagnosis rate of AUS were 93.67%,82.61%,91.18%,72.55%,and 20.83%,respectively.CT had a slightly lower PPV(92.11%)and NPV(69.23%),along with accuracy,positive detection,and misdiagnosis rates of 86.27%,68.63%,and 25%,respectively.Their combination improved performance,yielding 96.25%PPV,95.45%NPV,96.08%accuracy,75.49%positive detection rate,and 12.50%misdiagnosis rate.CONCLUSION AUS demonstrates certain diagnostic potential in AA diagnosis in pediatric patients,and its combination with CT further improves diagnostic efficacy.
