文摘Joint roughness coefficient(JRC)is the most commonly used parameter for quantifying surface roughness of rock discontinuities in practice.The system composed of multiple roughness statistical parameters to measure JRC is a nonlinear system with a lot of overlapping information.In this paper,a dataset of eight roughness statistical parameters covering 112 digital joints is established.Then,the principal component analysis method is introduced to extract the significant information,which solves the information overlap problem of roughness characterization.Based on the two principal components of extracted features,the white shark optimizer algorithm was introduced to optimize the extreme gradient boosting model,and a new machine learning(ML)prediction model was established.The prediction accuracy of the new model and the other 17 models was measured using statistical metrics.The results show that the prediction result of the new model is more consistent with the real JRC value,with higher recognition accuracy and generalization ability.

文摘Background:Rosa chinensis Jacq.and Rosa rugosa Thunb.are not only of ornamental value,but also edible flowers and the flower buds have been listed in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia as traditional medicines.The two plants have some differences in efficacy,but the flower buds are easily confused for similar traits.In addition,large-scale cultivation of ornamental rose flowers may lead to a decrease in the effective components of medicinal roses.Therefore,it is necessary to study the chemical composition and make quality evaluation of Rosae Chinensis Flos(Yueji)and Rosae Rugosae Flos(Meigui).Methods:In this study,40 batches of samples including Meigui and Yueji from different regions in China were collected to establish high-performance liquid chromatography fingerprints.Then,the fingerprints data was analyzed using principal component analysis,hierarchical cluster analysis,and partial least squares discriminant analysis analysis chemometrics to obtain information on intergroup differences,and non-targeted metabolomic techniques were applied to identify and compare chemical compositions of samples which were chosen from groups with large differences.Differential compounds were screened by orthogonal partial least-squares discriminant analysis and S-plot,and finally multi-component quantification was performed to comprehensively evaluate the quality of Yueji and Meigui.Results:The similarity between the fingerprints of 40 batches roses and the reference print R was 0.73 to 0.93,indicating that there were similarities and differences between the samples.Through principal component analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis of fingerprints data,the samples from different origins and varieties were intuitively divided into four groups.Partial least-squares discriminant analysis analysis showed that Meigui and Yueji cluster into two categories and the model was reliable.A total of 89 compounds were identified by high resolution mass spectrometry,mainly were flavonoids and flavonoid glycosides,as well as phenolic acids.Eight differential components were screened out by orthogonal partial least-squares discriminant analysis and S-plot analysis.Quantitative analyses of the eight compounds,including gallic acid,ellagic acid,hyperoside,isoquercitrin,etc.,showed that Yueji was generally richer in phenolic acids and flavonoids than Meigui,and the quality of Yueji from Shandong and Hebei was better.It is worth noting that Xinjiang rose is rich in various components,which is worth focusing on more in-depth research.Conclusion:In this study,the fingerprints of Meigui and Yueji were established.The chemical components information of roses was further improved based on non-targeted metabolomics and mass spectrometry technology.At the same time,eight differential components of Meigui and Yueji were screened out and quantitatively analyzed.The research results provided a scientific basis for the quality control and rational development and utilization of Rosae Chinensis Flos and Rosae Rugosae Flos,and also laid a foundation for the study of their pharmacodynamic material basis.
文摘Dear Editor,Local recurrence and cervical lymph node metastases are major causes of mortality in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC).To date,none of the proposed strategies for predicting outcomes in this disease have proven fully effective,and a comprehensive physical examination remains the primary method for early detection and monitoring of HNSCC.
文摘Restoration of phase aberrations is crucial for addressing atmospheric turbulence in light propagation.Traditional restoration algorithms based on Zernike polynomials(ZPs)often encounter challenges related to high computational complexity and insufficient capture of high-frequency phase aberration components,so we proposed a Principal-Component-Analysis-based method for representing phase aberrations.This paper discusses the factors influencing the accuracy of restoration,mainly including the sample space size and the sampling interval of D/r_(0),on the basis of characterizing phase aberrations by Principal Components(PCs).The experimental results show that a larger D/r_(0)sampling interval can ensure the generalization ability and robustness of the principal components in the case of a limited amount of original data,which can help to achieve high-precision deployment of the model in practical applications quickly.In the environment with relatively strong turbulence in the test set of D/r_(0)=24,the use of 34 terms of PCs can improve the corrected Strehl ratio(SR)from 0.007 to 0.1585,while the Strehl ratio of the light spot after restoration using 34 terms of ZPs is only 0.0215,demonstrating almost no correction effect.The results indicate that PCs can serve as a better alternative in representing and restoring the characteristics of atmospheric turbulence induced phase aberrations.These findings pave the way to use PCs of phase aberrations with fewer terms than traditional ZPs to achieve data dimensionality reduction,and offer a reference to accelerate and stabilize the model and deep learning based adaptive optics correction.

文摘Acupuncture,a therapeutic practice rooted in traditional Chinese medicine and integrated with modern neuroscience,achieves its effects by stimulating sensory nerves at specific anatomical points known as acupoints.This review systematically explores the therapeutic components of acupuncture,emphasizing the interplay between sensory nerve characteristics and neural signaling pathways.Key factors such as acupoint location,needling depth,stimulation intensity,retention time,and the induction of sensations(e.g.,Deqi)are analyzed for their roles in neural activation and clinical outcomes.The review highlights how variations in spinal segment targeting,tissue-specific receptor activation,and stimulation modalities(e.g.,manual acupuncture,electroacupuncture,moxibustion)influence therapeutic effects.Emerging evidence underscores the significance of ion channels,dermatomes,myotomes,and genespecific pathways in mediating systemic effects.Additionally,the differential roles of mechanical,thermal and nociceptive stimuli and the temporal dynamics of sensory and immune responses are addressed.While insights from animal models have advanced our understanding,their translation to clinical practice requires further investigation.This comprehensive review identifies critical parameters for optimizing acupuncture therapy,advocating for individualized treatment strategies informed by neuroanatomical and neurophysiological principles,ultimately enhancing its precision and efficacy in modern medicine.

文摘In-depth study of the components of polymyxins is the key to controlling the quality of this class of antibiotics.Similarities and variations of components present significant analytical challenges.A two-dimensional(2D)liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS)method was established for screening and comprehensive profiling of compositions of the antibiotic colistimethate sodium(CMS).A high concentration of phosphate buffer mobile phase was used in the first-dimensional LC system to get the components well separated.For efficient and high-accuracy screening of CMS,a targeted method based on a self-constructed high resolution(HR)mass spectrum database of CMS components was established.The database was built based on the commercial MassHunter Personal Compound Database and Library(PCDL)software and its accuracy of the compound matching result was verified with six known components before being applied to genuine sample screening.On this basis,the unknown peaks in the CMS chromatograms were deduced and assigned.The molecular formula,group composition,and origins of a total of 99 compounds,of which the combined area percentage accounted for more than 95%of CMS components,were deduced by this 2D-LC-MS method combined with the MassHunter PCDL.This profiling method was highly efficient and could distinguish hundreds of components within 3 h,providing reliable results for quality control of this kind of complex drugs.

文摘The Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS)is vital for monitoring terrestrial water storage(TWS).However,effectively extracting hydrological load deformation from GNSS observations poses a significant challenge.This study proposes a novel strategy;the seasonal hydrological load signals are removed from the raw data,and the remaining signals use principal component analysis(PCA).Simulation results from Yunnan Province demonstrate that the spatial distribution of the root mean square error(RMSE)is improved by approximately 15% compared with traditional PCA extraction from raw data.From January 2013 to December 2022,TWS was inverted from 24 GNSS stations in Yunnan Province.The spatial distribution and time series of TWS inverted from GNSS align well with those TWS inferred from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment(GRACE),GRACE Follow-On(GFO),and the Global Land Data Assimilation System(GLDAS)land surface model.However,the amplitude of the GNSS-inverted TWS is slightly higher.Since GNSS ground stations are more sensitive to hydrological load signals,they show correlations with precipitation data that are 8.6%and 6.0%higher than those of GRACE and GLDAS,respectively.In the power spectral density analysis of GRACE/GFO,GLDAS,and GNSS,the signal strength of GNSS is much higher than that of GRACE/GFO and GLDAS in the June and February cycles.These findings suggest that the new data extraction strategy can capture higher frequency hydrological signals in TWS,and GNSS observations can help address limitations in GRACE/GFO observations.This study demonstrates the potential of GNSS TWS in capturing higher-frequency hydrological signals and climate extremes application.

文摘Magnesium alloy thin-walled cylindrical components with the advantages of high specific stiffness and strength present broad prospect for the lightweight of aerospace components.However,poor formability resulting from the hexagonal close-packed crystal structure in magnesium alloy puts forwards a great challenge for thin-walled cylindrical components fabrication,especially for extreme structure with the thicknesschanging web and the high thin-wall.In this research,an ZK61 magnesium alloy thin-walled cylindrical component was successfully fabricated by two-step forging,i.e.,the pre-forging and final-forging is mainly used for wed and thin-wall formation,respectively.Microstructure and mechanical properties at the core,middle and margin of the web and the thin-wall of the pre-forged and final-forged components are studied in detail.Due to the large strain-effectiveness and metal flow along the radial direction(RD),the grains of the web are all elongated along RD for the pre-forged component,where an increasingly elongated trend is found from the core to the margin of the wed.A relatively low recrystallized degree occurs during pre-forging,and the web at different positions are all with prismatic and pyramid textures.During finalforging,the microstructures of the web and the thin-wall are almost equiaxed due to the remarkable occurrence of dynamic recrystallization.Similarity,except for few basal texture of the thin-wall,only prismatic and pyramid textures are found for the final-forged component.Compared with the initial billet,an obviously improved mechanical isotropy is achieved during pre-forging,which is well-maintained during final-forging.

文摘Diversifying crop rotation aims to balance production and ecological concerns.However,yield and water use efficiency(WUE)of crop in diversified rotation systems have not been well documented,especially under limited irrigation.Here,we conducted a 6-year experiment with five treatments:1)wheatmaize cropping system(WM),as control;2)WMME,spring maize→WM rotation;3)WMML,spring millet→WM rotation;4)WMMP,spring peanut→WM rotation;and 5)WMMS,spring soybean→WM rotation,to explore how diversified rotations affected yield and WUE of wheat.Results showed that approximately 60% higher precipitation during wheat growing season in Cycle 1(2015-2017)resulted in yield increases by 33.8%-55.7% compared to those in Cycle 2(2017-2019)and Cycle3(2019-2021).Grain yield and WUE of wheat were 16.7% and 9.6% higher in Cycle 1,81.5% and 86.8% higher in Cycle 2,and 56.1% and 78.7% higher in Cycle 3 on average in diversified rotations compared to those in WM,respectively.Further analysis revealed that spike number and aboveground biomass were the main contributors to the increments,which can be explained by the increased evapotranspiration during the middle-late wheat growth stages(e.g.,regreening,jointing,and anthesis)in diversified rotations.In general,diversified rotations enhanced synchronization of soil water supply with crop water demand by affecting the spatiotemporal dynamics of soil moisture under varied precipitation conditions,thereby increasing yield and WUE of wheat.Hence,diversified spring crops→WM rotations offer a sustainable and efficient strategy for enhancing wheat production and water conservation in dry areas.
