The Vulnerable Elders Survey-13(VES-13), widely used in oncogeriatrics and public health, remains unexplored as a frailty screening tool in HF outpatients. In this study, we prospectively evaluated VES-13 against a multimodal screening assessment in detecting frailty and predicting individual risk of adverse prognosis.Methods Frailty was assessed at the initial visit using both a multimodal approach, incorporating Barthel Index, Older American Resources and Services scale, Pfeiffer Test, abbreviated Geriatric Depression Scale, age > 85 years, lacking support systems,and VES-13. Patients scoring ≥ 3 on VES-13 or meeting at least one multimodal criterion were classified as frail. Endpoints included all-cause mortality, a composite of death or HF hospitalization, and recurrent HF hospitalizations.Results A total of 301 patients were evaluated. VES-13 identified 40.2% as frail and the multimodal assessment 33.2%. In Cox regression analyses, frailty identified by VES-13 showed greater prognostic significance than the multimodal assessment for allcause mortality(HR = 3.70 [2.15–6.33], P < 0.001 vs. 2.40 [1.46–4.0], P = 0.001) and the composite endpoint(HR = 3.13 [2.02–4.84], P< 0.001 vs. 1.96 [1.28–2.99], P = 0.002). Recurrent HF hospitalizations were four times more frequent in VES-13 frail patients while two times in those identified as frail by the multimodal assessment. Additionally, stratifying patients by VES-13 tertiles provided robust risk differentiation.Conclusions VES-13, a simple frailty tool, outperformed a comprehensive multimodal assessment and could be easily integrated into routine HF care, highlighting its clinical utility in identifying patients at risk for poor outcomes.展开更多

文摘Groundwater modeling remains challenging due to heterogeneity and complexity of aquifer systems,necessitating endeavors to quantify Groundwater Levels(GWL)dynamics to inform policymakers and hydrogeologists.This study introduces a novel Fuzzy Nonlinear Additive Regression(FNAR)model to predict monthly GWL in an unconfined aquifer in eastern Iran,using a 19-year(1998–2017)dataset from 11 piezometric wells.Under three distinct scenarios with progressively increasing input complexity,the study utilized readily available climate data,including Precipitation(Prc),Temperature(Tave),Relative Humidity(RH),and Evapotranspiration(ETo).The dataset was split into training(70%)and validation(30%)subsets.Results showed that among three input scenarios,Scenario 3(Sc3,incorporating all four variables)achieved the best predictive performance,with RMSE ranging from 0.305 m to 0.768 m,MAE from 0.203 m to 0.522 m,NSE from 0.661 to 0.980,and PBIAS from 0.771%to 0.981%,indicating low bias and high reliability.However,Sc2(excluding ETo)with RMSE ranging from 0.4226 m to 0.9909 m,MAE from 0.3418 m to 0.8173 m,NSE from 0.2831 to 0.9674,and PBIAS from−0.598%to 0.968%across different months offers practical advantages in data-scarce settings.The FNAR model outperforms conventional Fuzzy Least Squares Regression(FLSR)and holds promise for GWL forecasting in data-scarce regions where physical or numerical models are impractical.Future research should focus on integrating FNAR with deep learning algorithms and real-time data assimilation expanding applications across diverse hydrogeological settings.

文摘The photoacoustic imaging of lipid is intrinsically constrained by the feeble nature of endogenous lipid signals,posing a persistent sensitivity challenge that demands innovative solutions.Although adopting high-efficiency excitation and detection elements may improve the imaging sensitivity to a certain extent,the application of the elements is inevitably subject to various limitations in practical applications,particularly during in vivo imaging and endoscopic imaging.In this study,we propose a multi-combinatorial approach to enhance the sensitivity of lipid photoacoustic imaging.The approach involves wavelet transform processing of one-dimensional A-line signals,gradient-based denoising of two-dimensional B-scan images,and finally,threedimensional spatial weighted averaging of the data processed by the previous two steps.This method not only significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)in distinguished feature regions of the image by around 10 dB,but also efficiently extracts weak signals with no distinct features in the original image.After processing with this method,the images acquired under single scanning were compared with those obtained under multiple scanning.The results showed highly consistent image features,with the structural similarity index increasing from 0.2 to 0.8,confirming the accuracy and reliability of the multi-combinatorial approach.

文摘Background Frailty is common and significantly impacts prognosis in heart failure(HF). The Vulnerable Elders Survey-13(VES-13), widely used in oncogeriatrics and public health, remains unexplored as a frailty screening tool in HF outpatients. In this study, we prospectively evaluated VES-13 against a multimodal screening assessment in detecting frailty and predicting individual risk of adverse prognosis.Methods Frailty was assessed at the initial visit using both a multimodal approach, incorporating Barthel Index, Older American Resources and Services scale, Pfeiffer Test, abbreviated Geriatric Depression Scale, age > 85 years, lacking support systems,and VES-13. Patients scoring ≥ 3 on VES-13 or meeting at least one multimodal criterion were classified as frail. Endpoints included all-cause mortality, a composite of death or HF hospitalization, and recurrent HF hospitalizations.Results A total of 301 patients were evaluated. VES-13 identified 40.2% as frail and the multimodal assessment 33.2%. In Cox regression analyses, frailty identified by VES-13 showed greater prognostic significance than the multimodal assessment for allcause mortality(HR = 3.70 [2.15–6.33], P < 0.001 vs. 2.40 [1.46–4.0], P = 0.001) and the composite endpoint(HR = 3.13 [2.02–4.84], P< 0.001 vs. 1.96 [1.28–2.99], P = 0.002). Recurrent HF hospitalizations were four times more frequent in VES-13 frail patients while two times in those identified as frail by the multimodal assessment. Additionally, stratifying patients by VES-13 tertiles provided robust risk differentiation.Conclusions VES-13, a simple frailty tool, outperformed a comprehensive multimodal assessment and could be easily integrated into routine HF care, highlighting its clinical utility in identifying patients at risk for poor outcomes.
文摘With the rapid development of intelligent navigation technology,efficient and safe path planning for mobile robots has become a core requirement.To address the challenges of complex dynamic environments,this paper proposes an intelligent path planning framework based on grid map modeling.First,an improved Safe and Smooth A*(SSA*)algorithm is employed for global path planning.By incorporating obstacle expansion and cornerpoint optimization,the proposed SSA*enhances the safety and smoothness of the planned path.Then,a Partitioned Dynamic Window Approach(PDWA)is integrated for local planning,which is triggered when dynamic or sudden static obstacles appear,enabling real-time obstacle avoidance and path adjustment.A unified objective function is constructed,considering path length,safety,and smoothness comprehensively.Multiple simulation experiments are conducted on typical port grid maps.The results demonstrate that the improved SSA*significantly reduces the number of expanded nodes and computation time in static environmentswhile generating smoother and safer paths.Meanwhile,the PDWA exhibits strong real-time performance and robustness in dynamic scenarios,achieving shorter paths and lower planning times compared to other graph search algorithms.The proposedmethodmaintains stable performance across maps of different scales and various port scenarios,verifying its practicality and potential for wider application.

文摘Based on the Smit-Suhl formula,we propose a universal approach for solving the magnon-magnon coupling problem in bilayer coupled systems(e.g.,antiferromagnets).This method requires only the energy expression,enabling the automatic derivation of analytical expressions for the eigenmatrix elements via symbolic computation,eliminating the need for tedious manual calculations.Using this approach,we investigate the impact of magnetic hysteresis on magnon-magnon coupling in a system with interlayer Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction(DMI).The magnetic hysteresis leads to an asymmetric magnetic field dependence of the resonance frequency and alters the number of degeneracy points between the pure optical and acoustic modes.Moreover,it can result in the coupling strength at the gap of the f–H phase diagram being nearly vanishing,contrary to the conventionally expected maximum.These results deepen the understanding of the effect of interlayer DMI on magnon–magnon coupling and the proposed universal method significantly streamlines the solving process of magnon–magnon coupling problems.

文摘A safe and reliable path planning algorithm is fundamental for unmanned surface vehicles(USVs)to perform autonomous navigation tasks.However,a single global or local planning strategy cannot fully meet the requirements of complex maritime environments.Global planning alone cannot effectively handle dynamic obstacles,while local planning alone may fall into local optima.To address these issues,this paper proposes a multi-dynamic-obstacle avoidance path planning method that integrates an improved A^(*)algorithm with the dynamic window approach(DWA).The traditional A^(*)algorithm often generates paths that are too close to obstacle boundaries and contain excessive turning points,whereas the traditional DWA tends to skirt densely clustered obstacles,resulting in longer routes and insufficient dynamic obstacle avoidance.To overcome these limitations,improved versions of both algorithms are developed.Key points extracted from the optimized A^(*)path are used as intermediate start-destination pairs for the improved DWA,and the weights of the DWA evaluation function are adjusted to achieve effective fusion.Furthermore,a multi-dynamic-obstacle avoidance strategy is designed for complex navigation scenarios.Simulation results demonstrate that the USV can adaptively switch between dynamic obstacle avoidance and path tracking based on obstacle distribution,validating the effectiveness of the proposed method.

文摘The rapid identification of γ-emitting radionuclides with low activity levels in public areas is crucial for nuclear safety.However,classical methods rely on full-energy peaks in the integral spectrum,requiring sufficient count accumulation for evaluation,thereby limiting response time.The sequential Bayesian approach,which utilizes prior information and considers both photon energies and interarrival times,can significantly enhance the performance of radionuclides identification.This study proposes a theoretical optimization method for the traditional sequential Bayesian approach.Each photon is processed sequentially,and the corresponding posterior probability is updated in real time using a noninformative prior from the Bayesian theory.By comparing the posterior probabilities of the background and radionuclides based on the energy variance and time interval,the type of γ-rays can be identified(background characteristic γ-rays,Compton plateaus γ-rays,or radionuclide-specific characteristic γ-rays).By integrating the information from these multiple characteristic γ-rays,the presence and type of radionuclides were determined based on the final decision function and a set threshold.Based on theoretical research,verification experiments were conducted using a LaBr_(3)(Ce)detector in both low-and natural background radiation environments with typical radionuclides(^(137)Cs,^(60)Co,and ^(133)Ba).The results show that this approach can identify ^(137)Cs in 7.9 s and 8.5 s(source dose rate contribution:approximately 6.5×10^(−3)μGy/h),^(60)Co in 8.1 s and 9.8 s(approximately 4.8×10^(−2)μGy/h),and ^(133)Ba in 4.05 s and 5.99 s(approximately 3.4×10^(−2)μGy/h)under low and natural background radiation,respectively,with a miss rate below 0.01%.This demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed approach for fast radionuclides identification,even at low activity levels and highlights its potential for enhancing public safety in diverse radiation environments.

文摘Arid mountain ecosystems are highly sensitive to hydrothermal stress and land use intensification,yet where net primary productivity(NPP)degradation is likely to persist and what drives it remain unclear in the Tianshan Mountains of Northwest China.We integrated multi-source remote sensing with the Carnegie–Ames–Stanford Approach(CASA)model to estimate NPP during 2000–2020,assessed trend persistence using the Hurst exponent,and identified key drivers and nonlinear thresholds with Extreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost)and SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP).Total NPP averaged 55.74 Tg C/a and ranged from 48.07 to 65.91 Tg C/a from 2000 to 2020,while regional mean NPP rose from 138.97 to 160.69 g C/(m^(2)·a).Land use transfer analysis showed that grassland expanded mainly at the expense of unutilized land and that cropland increased overall.Although NPP increased across 64.11%of the region during 2000–2020,persistence analysis suggested that 53.93%of the Tianshan Mountains was prone to continued NPP decline,including 36.41%with significant projected decline and 17.52%with weak projected decline;these areas formed degradation hotspots concentrated in the central and northern Tianshan Mountains.In contrast,potential improvement was limited(strong persistent improvement:4.97%;strong anti-persistent improvement:0.36%).Driver attribution indicated that land use dominated NPP variability(mean absolute SHAP value=29.54%),followed by precipitation(16.03%)and temperature(11.05%).SHAP dependence analyses showed that precipitation effects stabilized at 300.00–400.00 mm,and temperature exhibited an inverted U-shaped response with a peak near 0.00°C.These findings indicated that persistent degradation risk arose from hydrothermal constraints interacting with land use conversion,highlighting the need for threshold-informed,spatially targeted management to sustain carbon sequestration in arid mountain ecosystems.

文摘Peripheral nerve injury is a common neurological condition that often leads to severe functional limitations and disabilities.Research on the pathogenesis of peripheral nerve injury has focused on pathological changes at individual injury sites,neglecting multilevel pathological analysis of the overall nervous system and target organs.This has led to restrictions on current therapeutic approaches.In this paper,we first summarize the potential mechanisms of peripheral nerve injury from a holistic perspective,covering the central nervous system,peripheral nervous system,and target organs.After peripheral nerve injury,the cortical plasticity of the brain is altered due to damage to and regeneration of peripheral nerves;changes such as neuronal apoptosis and axonal demyelination occur in the spinal cord.The nerve will undergo axonal regeneration,activation of Schwann cells,inflammatory response,and vascular system regeneration at the injury site.Corresponding damage to target organs can occur,including skeletal muscle atrophy and sensory receptor disruption.We then provide a brief review of the research advances in therapeutic approaches to peripheral nerve injury.The main current treatments are conducted passively and include physical factor rehabilitation,pharmacological treatments,cell-based therapies,and physical exercise.However,most treatments only partially address the problem and cannot complete the systematic recovery of the entire central nervous system-peripheral nervous system-target organ pathway.Therefore,we should further explore multilevel treatment options that produce effective,long-lasting results,perhaps requiring a combination of passive(traditional)and active(novel)treatment methods to stimulate rehabilitation at the central-peripheral-target organ levels to achieve better functional recovery.

文摘Advancements in molecular approaches have been utilized to breed crops with a wide range of economically valuable traits to develop superior cultivars.This review provides a concise overview of modern breakthroughs in molecular plant production.Genotyping and high-throughput phenotyping methods for predictive plant breeding are briefly discussed.In this study,we explore contemporary molecular breeding techniques for producing desirable crop varieties.These techniques include cisgenesis,clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat(CRISPR/Cas9)gene editing,haploid induction,and de novo domestication.We examine the speed breeding approach-a strategy for cultivating plants under controlled conditions.We further highlight the significance of modern breeding technologies in efficiently utilizing agricultural resources for crop production in urban areas.The deciphering of crop genomes has led to the development of extensive DNA markers,quantitative trait loci(QTLs),and pangenomes associated with various desirable crop traits.This shift to the genotypic selection of crops considerably expedites the plant breeding process.Based on the plant population used,the connection between genotypic and phenotypic data provides several genetic elements,including genes,markers,and alleles that can be used in genomic breeding and gene editing.The integration of speed breeding with genomic-assisted breeding and cutting-edge genome editing tools has made it feasible to rapidly manipulate and generate multiple crop cycles and accelerate the plant breeding process.Breakthroughs in molecular techniques have led to substantial improvements in modern breeding methods.

文摘Development of on-chip coherent light sources with desired single-mode operation and straightforward spectral tunability has attracted intense interest due to ever-increasing demand for photonic devices and optoelectronic integration,but still faces serious challenges.Herein,we propose a facile method to synthesize cesium lead halide(CsPbX3)microstructures with well-defined morphologies,sizes,and constituent element gradient.The scheme is conducted using a chemical vapor deposition(CVD),which is subsequently associated with annealing-assisted solid-solid anion exchange.For the plate-shaped structures,the controllability on the cross-sectional dimension enables to precisely modulate the lasing modes,thus achieving single-mode operation;while tuning the stoichiometric of the halogen anion components in the plate-shaped CsPbI_(x)Br_(3−x) alloy samples,the lasing wavelengths are straightforwardly varied to span the entire visible spectrum.By comparison,the experimental scheme on synthesizing alloyed CsPbI_(x)Br_(3−x) perovskites is conducted using an in-situ approach,thereby achieving precise modulation of bandgap-controlled microlasers by controlling the reaction time.Such laser properties like controllable microcavity modes and broad stoichiometry-dependent tunability of light-emitting/lasing colors,associated with the facile synthesizing method of monocrystalline CsPbI_(x)Br_(3−x) structures,make lead halide perovskites ideal materials for the development of wavelength-controlled microlasers toward practical photonic integration.
文摘Cardiovascular diseases(CVDs)remain the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide,necessitating innovative diagnostic and prognostic strategies.Traditional biomarkers like C-reactive protein,uric acid,troponin,and natriuretic peptides play crucial roles in CVD management,yet they are often limited by sensitivity and specificity constraints.This narrative review critically examines the emerging landscape of cardiac biomarkers and advocates for a multiple-marker approach to enhance early detection,prognosis,and risk stratification of CVD.In recent years,several novel biomarkers have shown promise in revolutionizing CVD diagnostics.Gamma-glutamyltransferase,microRNAs,endothelial microparticles,placental growth factor,trimethylamine N-oxide,retinol-binding protein 4,copeptin,heart-type fatty acid-binding protein,galectin-3,growth differentiation factor-15,soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2,fibroblast growth factor 23,and adrenomedullin have emerged as significant indicators of CV health.These biomarkers provide insights into various pathophysiological processes,such as oxidative stress,endothelial dysfunction,inflammation,metabolic disturbances,and myocardial injury.The integration of these novel biomarkers with traditional ones offers a more comprehensive understanding of CVD mechanisms.This multiple-marker approach can improve diagnostic accuracy,allowing for better risk stratification and more personalized treatment strategies.This review underscores the need for continued research to validate the clinical utility of these biomarkers and their potential incorporation into routine clinical practice.By leveraging the strengths of both traditional and novel biomarkers,precise therapeutic plans can be developed,thereby improving the management and prognosis of patients with CVDs.The ongoing exploration and validation of these biomarkers are crucial for advancing CV care and addressing the limitations of current diagnostic tools.
