However, the large amount of medical data involved in BIoMT has also raised concerns about data security and personal privacy protection. To alleviate these concerns, blind signature technology has emerged as an effective method to solve blindness and unforgeability. Unfortunately, most existing blind signature schemes suffer from the security risk of key leakage. In addition, traditional blind signature schemes are also vulnerable to quantum computing attacks. Therefore, it remains a crucial and ongoing challenge to explore the construction of key-secure, quantum-resistant blind signatures. In this paper, we introduce lattice-based forward-secure blind signature (LFSBS), a lattice-based forward-secure blind signature scheme for medical privacy preservation in BIoMT. LFSBS achieves forward security by constructing a key evolution mechanism using a binary tree structure. This mechanism ensures that even if future encryption keys are leaked, past data can still remain secure. Meanwhile, LFSBS realizes post-quantum security based on the hardness assumption of small integer solution (SIS), making it resistant to potential quantum computing attacks. In addition, we formally define and prove the security of LFSBS in a random oracle model, including blindness and forward-secure unforgeability. Comprehensive performance evaluation shows that LFSBS performs well in terms of computational overhead, with a reduction of 22%–73% compared to previous schemes.展开更多

However, different from that in the 4G LTE system, the cyclic redundancy check(CRC) in polar decoding plays both error correction and error detection roles. Consequently, the false alarm rates(FAR) may not meet the system requirements(FAR<1.52 × 10^(−5)). In this paper, to mitigate the FAR in polar code blind detection, we attach a binary classifier after the polar decoder to further remove the false alarm results and meanwhile retain the correct DCI. This classifier works by tracking the squared Euclidean distance ratio(SEDR) between the received signal and hypothesis. We derive an analytical method to fast compute proper classification threshold that is implementation-friendly in practical use. Combining the well-designed classifier, we show that some very short CRC sequences can even be used to meet the FAR requirements. This consequently reduces the CRC overhead and contributes to the system error performance improvements.展开更多

To achieve this, we introduce a novel approach that incorporates an L1-regularizer term in BF weight state estimation. We start by explaining the CMBB formation mechanism under conditions where there is a mismatch in the far-field signal model. Subsequently, we reformulate the BF weight state estimation challenge using a method known as variable-splitting, turning it into a noise minimization problem. This problem combines both linear and nonlinear quadratic terms with an L1-regularizer that promotes the sparsity. The optimization strategy is based on a variable-splitting method, implemented using the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers(ADMM). Furthermore, a variable-splitting framework is developed to enhance BF weight state estimation, employing a Kalman Smoother(KS) optimization algorithm. The approach integrates the Rauch-TungStriebel smoother to perform posterior-smoothing state estimation by leveraging prior data. We provide proof of convergence for both linear and nonlinear CMBB state estimation technology using the variable-splitting KS and the iterated extended Kalman smoother. Simulations corroborate our theoretical analysis, showing that the proposed method achieves robust stability and effective convergence, even when faced with signal model mismatches.展开更多

Methods: This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study included 100 healthy male and female adults aged 20 - 64 years. Participants consumed either the G. hansenii GK-1 supplement (9 × 10⁹ cells/day) or a placebo daily for 12 weeks. The impact of temporary mental stress on fatigue in G. hansenii GK-1 was assessed using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) before the study began and after 12 weeks of supplementation. Results: Subjective fatigue measured by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) showed a significant decrease in fatigue induced by temporary mental stress after 12 weeks of consumption in the G. hansenii GK-1 group compared with the placebo group. No adverse events were attributed to G. hansenii GK-1. These findings confirm that continuous oral ingestion of G. hansenii GK-1 by healthy Japanese adults reduces feelings of fatigue caused by temporary mental stress.展开更多

Those aliasing signal...In LEO satellite communication networks,the number of satellites has increased sharply, the relative velocity of satellites is very fast, then electronic signal aliasing occurs from time to time. Those aliasing signals make the receiving ability of the signal receiver worse, the signal processing ability weaker,and the anti-interference ability of the communication system lower. Aiming at the above problems, to save communication resources and improve communication efficiency, and considering the irregularity of interference signals, the underdetermined blind separation technology can effectively deal with the problem of interference sensing and signal reconstruction in this scenario. In order to improve the stability of source signal separation and the security of information transmission, a greedy optimization algorithm can be executed. At the same time, to improve network information transmission efficiency and prevent algorithms from getting trapped in local optima, delete low-energy points during each iteration process. Ultimately, simulation experiments validate that the algorithm presented in this paper enhances both the transmission efficiency of the network transmission system and the security of the communication system, achieving the process of interference sensing and signal reconstruction in the LEO satellite communication system.展开更多

文摘Blockchain-enabled Internet of Medical Things (BIoMT) has attracted significant attention from academia and healthcare organizations. However, the large amount of medical data involved in BIoMT has also raised concerns about data security and personal privacy protection. To alleviate these concerns, blind signature technology has emerged as an effective method to solve blindness and unforgeability. Unfortunately, most existing blind signature schemes suffer from the security risk of key leakage. In addition, traditional blind signature schemes are also vulnerable to quantum computing attacks. Therefore, it remains a crucial and ongoing challenge to explore the construction of key-secure, quantum-resistant blind signatures. In this paper, we introduce lattice-based forward-secure blind signature (LFSBS), a lattice-based forward-secure blind signature scheme for medical privacy preservation in BIoMT. LFSBS achieves forward security by constructing a key evolution mechanism using a binary tree structure. This mechanism ensures that even if future encryption keys are leaked, past data can still remain secure. Meanwhile, LFSBS realizes post-quantum security based on the hardness assumption of small integer solution (SIS), making it resistant to potential quantum computing attacks. In addition, we formally define and prove the security of LFSBS in a random oracle model, including blindness and forward-secure unforgeability.

文摘Background:Blindness and vision impairment(BVI)continue to pose significant global public health challenges,disproportionately impacting vulnerable populations and further widening socioeconomic disparities.This study conducts a comprehensive evaluation of the global burden of BVI and the socioeconomic inequalities in its distribution from 1990 to 2021,aiming to provide insights for targeted intervention strategies.Methods:Using data from Global Burden of Disease 2021,this study performed a multiscale analysis of BVI burden,examining patterns at the global,regional and national levels.We quantified the disease burden using disability-adjusted life years DALY and prevalence rates.Temporal trends were analyzed by calculating estimated annual percentage changes(EAPC).Stratified assessments were carried out by sex and age group across 21 regions and 204 countries.The study also included comparative analyses of six major eye conditions and evaluated their associations with socio-demographic index(SDI).Results:Globally,the age-standardized prevalence of BVI increased from 12,453.52 per million(95%UI:10,287.58-15,226.09)in 1990 to 15,784.33 per million(12,761.44-19,502.32)in 2021,with an EAPC of 1.09%(95%UI:0.97-1.20).During this period,global DALYs attributable to BVI increased by 37.7%.Disease trends exhibited significant divergence,with near vision loss showing the steepest increase(EAPC:1.47%),while the prevalence of glaucoma declined(EAPC:-0.73%).Geographic disparities were pronounced,with substantial improvements observed in Equatorial Guinea(EAPC:-1.75)and worsening burdens in Benin(+0.54).Disease distribution demonstrated strong regional clustering,with near vision loss being predominant in Sub-Saharan Africa(64.47%)and East Asia(50.97%),while cataract was the most common condition in Oceania(33.86%).Females consistently bore a higher burden,particularly in South Asia(646.3 vs 563.2 DALYs).Moreover,we identified a strong inverse correlation between SDI and BVI burden(Ρ=-0.772 for DALYs).Conclusions:This study highlights the severe global burden of BVI and the significant cross-country inequality,particularly in low-and middle-income countries.It emphasizes the urgent need for targeted interventions and the integration of eye care into universal health policies to promote global health equity in the post-pandemic era.

文摘In 5G new radio(NR), polar codes are adopted for e MBB downlink control channels where the blind detection is employed in user equipment(UE) to identify the correct downlink control information(DCI). However, different from that in the 4G LTE system, the cyclic redundancy check(CRC) in polar decoding plays both error correction and error detection roles. Consequently, the false alarm rates(FAR) may not meet the system requirements(FAR<1.52 × 10^(−5)). In this paper, to mitigate the FAR in polar code blind detection, we attach a binary classifier after the polar decoder to further remove the false alarm results and meanwhile retain the correct DCI. This classifier works by tracking the squared Euclidean distance ratio(SEDR) between the received signal and hypothesis. We derive an analytical method to fast compute proper classification threshold that is implementation-friendly in practical use. Combining the well-designed classifier, we show that some very short CRC sequences can even be used to meet the FAR requirements. This consequently reduces the CRC overhead and contributes to the system error performance improvements.
文摘AIM:To identify risk factors for postoperative blindness in patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)at their first presentation to a tertiary center,using a large clinical database to improve understanding of this adverse outcome.METHODS:Electronic health records of patients with primary RRD from the Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were retrospectively analyzed.Postoperative blindness was defined according to the World Health Organization(WHO)criteria for legal blindness.Potential risk factors included demographic characteristics,preoperative clinical features,and surgical variables.Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to calculate odds ratios(ORs)and 95%confidence intervals(CIs)for each risk factor.RESULTS:A total of 532 patients were included in the cohort,of whom 62(12.0%;28 males,34 females)developed postoperative blindness at the final follow-up.Among these 62 patients,30 had high myopia and 32 did not.The mean age of participants was 49.0±16.4y,with 275 subjects(52%)being male and 133 patients(25%)having the condition in the right eye.In the multivariable model for all patients,the following factors were associated with an increased risk of postoperative blindness:higher preoperative logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution visual acuity(logMAR VA;OR=1.09 per 0.1 logMAR unit increase,95%CI 1.03-1.15);inferior or superior retinal breaks(OR=2.42,95%CI 1.12-5.24);and macular holes or superior retinal breaks(OR=8.46,95%CI 3.45-20.75).In the subgroup of patients with high myopia,risk factors for postoperative blindness included:pseudophakia/aphakia versus phakia(OR=6.33,95%CI 1.41-28.31);macular holes or superior retinal breaks(OR=15.15,95%CI 3.07-74.85);and proliferative vitreoretinopathy(PVR;OR=21.41,95%CI 2.14-214.57).In the subgroup of patients without high myopia,increased risk of postoperative blindness was associated with:higher preoperative logMAR VA(OR=1.11 per 0.1 logMAR unit increase,95%CI 1.04-1.18);and inferior or superior retinal breaks(OR=2.90,95%CI 1.19-7.06).CONCLUSION:Using a large real-world clinical database,we identified distinct risk factors for postoperative blindness in patients with primary RRD-including differences between those with and without high myopia.These findings emphasize the need to target specific risk factors in clinical practice to mitigate and reduce the incidence of postoperative blindness in this patient population.
文摘At a February 2025 meeting,researchers presented their latest findings from a phase 1/2 clinical trial of a gene therapy,DB-OTO,developed by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals(Tarrytown,NY,USA)for a particular type of profound hearing loss in children.Nearly all the 12 participants,with no serious adverse events,experienced clinically meaningful and durable hearing improve-ments[1].A toddler born deaf,for example,could hear well enough after treatment to quack when asked,“What sound does a duck make?”[2].

文摘Recent deep neural network(DNN)based blind image quality assessment(BIQA)approaches take mean opinion score(MOS)as ground-truth labels,which would lead to cross-datasets biases and limited generalization ability of the DNN-based BIQA model.This work validates the natural instability of MOS through investigating the neuropsychological characteristics inside the human visual system during quality perception.By combining persistent homology analysis with electroencephalogram(EEG),the physiologically meaningful features of the brain responses to different distortion levels are extracted.The physiological features indicate that although volunteers view exactly the same image content,their EEG features are quite varied.Based on the physiological results,we advocate treating MOS as noisy labels and optimizing the DNN based BIQA model with earlystop strategies.Experimental results on both innerdataset and cross-dataset demonstrate the superiority of our optimization approach in terms of generalization ability.

文摘OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of Yiqi Liangxue Shengji prescription(益气凉血生肌方,YQLXSJ)on cardiac function and outcomes in acute myocardial infarction(AMI)patients with myocardial ischemiareperfusion injury(MIRI)and to determine its clinical efficacy.METHODS:This prospective,randomized,double-blind,placebo-controlled trial enrolled hospitalized patients with AMI who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention and experienced MIRI either intraoperatively or postoperatively.Participants were randomly allocated to the treatment group,which received YQLXSJ,or the control group,which received a placebo,concurrent with standard Western Medicine therapy.The intervention period lasted 8 weeks.The primary outcome measure was left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),determined by echocardiography.Secondary outcomes included Nterminal pro brain natriuretic peptide(NT-pro BNP)and cardiac troponin I(cTnI)levels,left ventricular internal diameter,major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE),angina pectoris scores,and Chinese medicine evidence scores.RESULTS:Following 8 weeks of intervention,the treatment group demonstrated a significant increase in LVEF and a marked reduction in NT-pro BNP when compared to the control group.There was also a significant decrease in peak cTnI levels,Chinese medicine evidence scores,and angina pectoris scores.The control group's left ventricular end-systolic diameter(LVESD)significantly increased compared to baseline after 8 weeks(P<0.05),whereas the treatment group's LVESD showed no significant change from baseline(P>0.05).Although the treatment group showed a downward trend in MACE incidence compared to the control group,this difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).CONCLUSIONS:This study demonstrated that the addition of YQLXSJ to standard therapy can improve cardiac function and alleviate clinical symptoms in AMI patients with MIRI,and also showed a potential to mitigate the incidence of MACE.Furthermore,YQLXSJ displayed a favorable safety profile in clinical application.

文摘Most blind image quality assessment(BIQA)methods require a large amount of time to collect human opinion scores as training labels,which limits their usability in practice.Thus,we present an opinion-unaware BIQA method based on deep reinforcement learning which is trained without subjective scores,named DRL-IQA.Inspired by the human visual perception process,our model is formulated as a quality reinforced agent,which consists of the dynamic distortion generation part and the quality perception part.By considering the image distortion degradation process as a sequential decision-making process,the dynamic distortion generation part can develop a strategy to add as many different distortions as possible to an image,which enriches the distortion space to alleviate overfitting.A reward function calculated from quality degradation after adding distortion is utilized to continuously optimize the strategy.Furthermore,the quality perception part can extract rich quality features from the quality degradation process without using subjective scores,and accurately predict the state values that represent the image quality.Experimental results reveal that our method achieves competitive quality prediction performance compared to other state-of-the-art BIQA methods.

文摘This paper aims to enhance the array Beamforming(BF) robustness by tackling issues related to BF weight state estimation encountered in Constant Modulus Blind Beamforming(CMBB). To achieve this, we introduce a novel approach that incorporates an L1-regularizer term in BF weight state estimation. We start by explaining the CMBB formation mechanism under conditions where there is a mismatch in the far-field signal model. Subsequently, we reformulate the BF weight state estimation challenge using a method known as variable-splitting, turning it into a noise minimization problem. This problem combines both linear and nonlinear quadratic terms with an L1-regularizer that promotes the sparsity. The optimization strategy is based on a variable-splitting method, implemented using the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers(ADMM). Furthermore, a variable-splitting framework is developed to enhance BF weight state estimation, employing a Kalman Smoother(KS) optimization algorithm. The approach integrates the Rauch-TungStriebel smoother to perform posterior-smoothing state estimation by leveraging prior data. We provide proof of convergence for both linear and nonlinear CMBB state estimation technology using the variable-splitting KS and the iterated extended Kalman smoother. Simulations corroborate our theoretical analysis, showing that the proposed method achieves robust stability and effective convergence, even when faced with signal model mismatches.

文摘Jamming suppression is traditionally achieved through the use of spatial filters based on array signal processing theory.In order to achieve better jamming suppression performance,many studies have applied blind source separation(BSS)to jamming suppression.BSS can achieve the separation and extraction of the individual source signals from the mixed signal received by the array.This paper proposes a perspective to recognize BSS as spatial band-pass filters(SBPFs)for jamming suppression applications.The theoretical derivation indicates that the processing of mixed signals by BSS can be perceived as the application of a set of SBPFs that gate the source signals at various angles.Simulations are performed using radar jamming suppression as an example.The simulation results suggest that BSS and SBPFs produce approximately the same effects.Simulation results are consistent with theoretical derivation results.
文摘Objective: This study assessed the effects of consuming acetic acid bacteria (Gluconacetobacter hansenii GK-1) for 12 weeks on fatigue induced by temporary mental stress. Methods: This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study included 100 healthy male and female adults aged 20 - 64 years. Participants consumed either the G. hansenii GK-1 supplement (9 × 10⁹ cells/day) or a placebo daily for 12 weeks. The impact of temporary mental stress on fatigue in G. hansenii GK-1 was assessed using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) before the study began and after 12 weeks of supplementation. Results: Subjective fatigue measured by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) showed a significant decrease in fatigue induced by temporary mental stress after 12 weeks of consumption in the G. hansenii GK-1 group compared with the placebo group. No adverse events were attributed to G. hansenii GK-1. These findings confirm that continuous oral ingestion of G. hansenii GK-1 by healthy Japanese adults reduces feelings of fatigue caused by temporary mental stress.

文摘Quantum key distribution(QKD),rooted in quantum mechanics,offers information-theoretic security.However,practi-cal systems open security threats due to imperfections,notably bright-light blinding attacks targeting single-photon detectors.Here,we propose a concise,robust defense strategy for protecting single-photon detectors in QKD systems against blinding attacks.Our strategy uses a dual approach:detecting the bias current of the avalanche photodiode(APD)to defend against con-tinuous-wave blinding attacks,and monitoring the avalanche amplitude to protect against pulsed blinding attacks.By integrat-ing these two branches,the proposed solution effectively identifies and mitigates a wide range of bright light injection attempts,significantly enhancing the resilience of QKD systems against various bright-light blinding attacks.This method forti-fies the safeguards of quantum communications and offers a crucial contribution to the field of quantum information security.

文摘Separation and recognition of radar signals is the key function of modern radar reconnaissance,which is of great sig-nificance for electronic countermeasures and anti-countermea-sures.In order to improve the ability of separating mixed signals in complex electromagnetic environment,a blind source separa-tion algorithm based on degree of cyclostationarity(DCS)crite-rion is constructed in this paper.Firstly,the DCS criterion is con-structed by using the cyclic spectrum theory.Then the algo-rithm flow of blind source separation is designed based on DCS criterion.At the same time,Givens matrix is constructed to make the blind source separation algorithm suitable for multiple sig-nals with different cyclostationary frequencies.The feasibility of this method is further proved.The theoretical and simulation results show that the algorithm can effectively separate and re-cognize common multi-radar signals.

文摘Background:Acute gouty arthritis(AGA)is an inflammatory joint disease with a high prevalence.Typical medical interventions,including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs,colchicine and glucocorticoids,can have serious adverse reactions.Huzhang Granule(HZG),a compound Chinese herbal medicine,has been used to treat AGA for more than 30 years with satisfactory effects and no significant adverse reactions.However,the efficacy and safety of HZG in AGA patients remains unknown.Objective:The present investigation was designed to examine the efficacy and safety profile of HZG in managing AGA patients.Design,setting,participants and interventions:The current study was conducted as a noninferiority,randomized controlled clinical trial on 180 eligible enrolled participants.Participants were randomly assigned into the HZG and etoricoxib groups.Treatments were administered for 5 d,during which the HZG group received HZG and placebo etoricoxib,while the etoricoxib group received etoricoxib and placebo HZG in the same ratio(1:1).Main outcome measures:The primary outcome was pain experienced by the patient in the gout-afflicted joint from days 2 to 5 of the treatment window.The pain level was measured via a visual analogue scale,ranging from 0 mm to 100 mm.The secondary outcomes comprised joint tenderness and swelling,reduction of inflammatory biomarkers,and the patient’s and investigator’s global evaluations of therapeutic response.Results:The mean reduction in pain was-51.22 mm(95%confidence interval[CI],[-53.42,-49.03]mm)for the HZG and-52.00 mm(95%CI,[-54.06,-49.94]mm)for the etoricoxib groups.The mean difference between the two groups was 0.78 mm(95%CI,[-2.25,3.81]mm).All additional efficacy endpoints,covering decreased inflammation and pain relief,yielded compelling proof of noninferiority.Patients in the HZG group exhibited a comparatively lower rate of adverse events compared to those in the etoricoxib group(4.44%vs 13.33%;P≤0.05).Conclusion:HZG and etoricoxib groups demonstrated similar levels of analgesic effectiveness.The safety and efficacy of HZG indicates that it can be used as a potential therapeutic option for treating AGA.

文摘Due to the complexity and faintness of the detection wave patterns obtained by aircoupled transducers,if it is possible to effectively separate the various modes and obtain nondispersive signals for more accurate detection and positioning,it will help to improve the accuracy and reliability of air-coupled ultrasonic Lamb wave detection,providing better technical support for the application and development of related fields.Because of the increased complexity of aircoupled signals,there is no definite theoretical formula to describe the mode changes of aircoupled signals,so the method based on blind separation has unique value.To address these challenges,the paper proposes a single-channel blind source separation(SCBSS)method.The effectiveness of this method is evaluated through simulations and experiments,demonstrating favorable separation results and efficient computational speed.This work first conducts an in-depth analysis of the signal characteristics of air-coupled ultrasonic non-destructive testing,and simulates the ultrasonic excitation conditions of air-coupled sensors through finite element software.The study of modal changes and multipath effects caused by the variation of the incidence angle of the ACT signal is carried out,and the situation of the Lamb wave signal excited by ACT at the receiving end is analyzed.By combining ACT with PZT signals,the ultrasonic signals of air-coupled Lamb waves are compared and studied,and their modal purification is carried out.

文摘In LEO satellite communication networks,the number of satellites has increased sharply, the relative velocity of satellites is very fast, then electronic signal aliasing occurs from time to time. Those aliasing signals make the receiving ability of the signal receiver worse, the signal processing ability weaker,and the anti-interference ability of the communication system lower. Aiming at the above problems, to save communication resources and improve communication efficiency, and considering the irregularity of interference signals, the underdetermined blind separation technology can effectively deal with the problem of interference sensing and signal reconstruction in this scenario. In order to improve the stability of source signal separation and the security of information transmission, a greedy optimization algorithm can be executed. At the same time, to improve network information transmission efficiency and prevent algorithms from getting trapped in local optima, delete low-energy points during each iteration process. Ultimately, simulation experiments validate that the algorithm presented in this paper enhances both the transmission efficiency of the network transmission system and the security of the communication system, achieving the process of interference sensing and signal reconstruction in the LEO satellite communication system.
