Methods Computer retrieval was used for randomized controlled trials on the treatment effect of simple obesity with ACET in databases of the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data system, and the China Biology Medicine disc (CBMDisc). The Jadad Quality Scale was used in the evaluation of included studies. The outcome indicators were analyzed with the Review Manage 5.1 software. Results A total of 16 randomized controlled trials were included finally. The meta-analysis result showed that compared with the control group, there was statistically significance on the total efficiency of using ACET for simple obesity [OR=2.51, 95% confidence interval (1.74, 3.63), Z=4.91, P〈0.000 01]. The analysis on the literature quality showed that there was only 2 article marked as 3 points. The other 25 articles marked ≤2 points. The quality of published articles was generally low. There were publication biases and the blinding method was seldom used, the losses of follow-up / drop oup / withdraw were reported with less. There were 27 acupoints used in the treatment, which mainly included Tianshu (天枢ST 25), Zhongwan (中脘 CV 12), Fenglong (丰隆 ST 40), Shufen (水分 CV 9), Qihai (气海 CV 6), Sanyinjiao (三阴交 SP 6), Zusnli (足三里 ST 36), Ashi point, Daheng (大横 SP 25). The five kinds of catgut embedding needle were injection needles + acupuncture needle, specialized catgut embedding needle, spinal needle, triangular needle, and skin suture needle. Conclusion There is definite efficiency of using ACET in the treatment of simple obesity. However, the clinical efficiency still lacks of sufficient evidences. Therefore, further clinical research should be conducted in the providing of reliable evidences in the clinical decision-making in the future.展开更多

Methods Five databases (CBM, CNKI, Wanfang Database, VlP Database, and PubMed) were searched to identify relevant studies published before June 2027. The outcomes were resumption of menstruation and serum levels of testosterone (T). The methodological quality of the included studies was judged using the Cochrane risk of bias tool. The overall level of evidence was judged by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) criteria. Results Twenty- five randomized controlled trials were included. ACE therapy significantly lowered serum T levels, and patients receiving ACE treatment reported resumption of menstruation. However, these results should be interpreted with caution due to a high risk of randomization and blinding bias, and likely publication bias. The level of evidence for resumption of menstruation and serum T levels was assessed as "low" and "low", respectively, using GRADE. Conclusion The current evidence on ACE therapy for PCOS is insufficient to draw firm conclusions due to the poor methodological quality. Future well- designed trials are needed to validate the therapeutic efficacy, safety, and mechanisms of ACE in patients with PCOS.展开更多

METHODS: Studies on clinical randomized controlled trials of acupoint catgut embedding for simple obesity which were published from January 2015 to November 2020 were searched in Cochrane Central Register of Control Trials(Central), Pub Med, China Science and Technology Journal Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database and Wanfang databases. And those that met the inclusion criteria were screened. Rev Man5.3 was used for Meta-analysis. The “Risk of Bias” tool was used to evaluate the quality of included studies. R studio software was used for the measurement of publication bias. RESULTS: A total of 33 studies were included for Metaanalysis, including 2685 patients with simple obesity. Meta-analysis results showed the comparison of effectiveness rate was relative risk(RR) = 1.12, 95%CI(1.08, 1.16), body mass index(BMI) was mean difference(MD) =-1.12, 95%CI(-2.09,-0.14), waist circumference was MD =-2.14, 95%CI(-4.22,-0.06), and body mass was MD =-2.36, 95%CI(-3.99,-0.73). On the basis of diet and exercise intervention, the effectiveness rate [RR = 1.12, 95%CI(1.05, 1.19)], BMI [MD =-0.88, 95%CI(-1.35,-0.40)], waist circumference [MD =-1.10, 95%CI(-4.27, 2.07)], and body mass [MD =-0.68, 95%CI(-2.90, 1.54)]. The risk of bias of included literatures was low. CONCLUSIONS: Acupoint catgut embedding therapy was slightly better than acupuncture therapy in most of the outcomes. Moreover, the treatment frequency of acupoint catgut embedding is less with larger stimulation intensity, which is more conducive to clinical promotion.展开更多

Anticipating the popularity of news articles can help the editorial teamsin making decisions about posting a news article. Article similarity extracted from the articles posted within a smallperiod of time is found to be a useful feature in existing popularity prediction approaches. This work proposesa new approach to estimate the popularity of news articles by adding semantics in the article similarity basedapproach of popularity estimation. A semantically enriched model is proposed which estimates news popularity bymeasuring cosine similarity between document embeddings of the news articles. Word2vec model has been used togenerate distributed representations of the news content. In this work, we define popularity as the number of timesa news article is posted on different websites. We collect data from different websites that post news concerning thedomain of cybersecurity and estimate the popularity of cybersecurity news. The proposed approach is comparedwith different models and it is shown that it outperforms the other models.展开更多

This requires to ...Throughout scientific research, the state space reconstruction that embeds a non-linear time series is the first and necessary step for characterizing and predicting the behavior of a complex system. This requires to choose appropriate values of time delay T and embedding dimension dE. Three methods are applied and discussed on nonlinear time series provided by the Rössler attractor equations set: Cao’s method, the C-C method developed by Kim et al. and the C-C-1 method developed by Cai et al. A way to fix a parameter necessary to implement the last method is given. Focus has been put on small size and/or noisy time series. The reconstruction quality is measured by using a criterion based on the transformation smoothness.展开更多

The five kinds of catgut embedding needle were injection needles + acupuncture needle, specialized catgut embedding needle, spinal needle, triangular needle, and skin suture needle. Conclusion There is definite efficiency of using ACET in the treatment of simple obesity. However, the clinical efficiency still lacks of sufficient evidences. Therefore, further clinical research should be conducted in the providing of reliable evidences in the clinical decision-making in the future.

文摘Most of the commercially-available pot seedling nursery machines are incompatible with soft-pot-trays and are labor-intensive and low in productivity.A soft-pot-tray automatic embedding system was developed in this study to achieve automatic embedding of the soft pot tray into the hard tray following sowing and covering with soil.A control system was constructed using the Arduino program development environment.An embedded-hard-tray automatic lowering mechanism and conveyor-belt-based pot-tray embedding system were designed.Dynamics analysis was conducted to derive an equation to describe the embedding process of the soft pot tray into the embedded hard tray.A prototype of the soft-pot-tray automatic embedding system was manufactured and tested.The analytical equation suggested that a minimum linear velocity of 0.86 m/s was required for a complete embedding process.The experimental results showed that the embedded-hard-tray automatic lowering mechanism was reliable and stable as the tray placement success rate was greater than 99%.The successful tray embedding rate was 100%and the seed exposure rate was less than 1%with a linear velocity of the conveyor belt of 0.92 m/s.The experiment findings agreed well with the analytical results.The proposed soft-pot-tray automatic embedding system satisfied the technical specifications for a light-economical pot seedling nursery machine.
文摘Objective This review aimed to systematically evaluate the evidence on the effects of acupoint catgut embedding (ACE) therapy for patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Methods Five databases (CBM, CNKI, Wanfang Database, VlP Database, and PubMed) were searched to identify relevant studies published before June 2027. The outcomes were resumption of menstruation and serum levels of testosterone (T). The methodological quality of the included studies was judged using the Cochrane risk of bias tool. The overall level of evidence was judged by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) criteria. Results Twenty- five randomized controlled trials were included. ACE therapy significantly lowered serum T levels, and patients receiving ACE treatment reported resumption of menstruation. However, these results should be interpreted with caution due to a high risk of randomization and blinding bias, and likely publication bias. The level of evidence for resumption of menstruation and serum T levels was assessed as "low" and "low", respectively, using GRADE. Conclusion The current evidence on ACE therapy for PCOS is insufficient to draw firm conclusions due to the poor methodological quality. Future well- designed trials are needed to validate the therapeutic efficacy, safety, and mechanisms of ACE in patients with PCOS.

文摘OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical effectiveness and safety of acupoint catgut embedding and acupuncture on simple obesity by Meta-analysis. METHODS: Studies on clinical randomized controlled trials of acupoint catgut embedding for simple obesity which were published from January 2015 to November 2020 were searched in Cochrane Central Register of Control Trials(Central), Pub Med, China Science and Technology Journal Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database and Wanfang databases. And those that met the inclusion criteria were screened. Rev Man5.3 was used for Meta-analysis. The “Risk of Bias” tool was used to evaluate the quality of included studies. R studio software was used for the measurement of publication bias. RESULTS: A total of 33 studies were included for Metaanalysis, including 2685 patients with simple obesity. Meta-analysis results showed the comparison of effectiveness rate was relative risk(RR) = 1.12, 95%CI(1.08, 1.16), body mass index(BMI) was mean difference(MD) =-1.12, 95%CI(-2.09,-0.14), waist circumference was MD =-2.14, 95%CI(-4.22,-0.06), and body mass was MD =-2.36, 95%CI(-3.99,-0.73). On the basis of diet and exercise intervention, the effectiveness rate [RR = 1.12, 95%CI(1.05, 1.19)], BMI [MD =-0.88, 95%CI(-1.35,-0.40)], waist circumference [MD =-1.10, 95%CI(-4.27, 2.07)], and body mass [MD =-0.68, 95%CI(-2.90, 1.54)]. The risk of bias of included literatures was low. CONCLUSIONS: Acupoint catgut embedding therapy was slightly better than acupuncture therapy in most of the outcomes. Moreover, the treatment frequency of acupoint catgut embedding is less with larger stimulation intensity, which is more conducive to clinical promotion.

文摘The substantial competition among the news industries puts editors under the pressure of posting news articleswhich are likely to gain more user attention. Anticipating the popularity of news articles can help the editorial teamsin making decisions about posting a news article. Article similarity extracted from the articles posted within a smallperiod of time is found to be a useful feature in existing popularity prediction approaches. This work proposesa new approach to estimate the popularity of news articles by adding semantics in the article similarity basedapproach of popularity estimation. A semantically enriched model is proposed which estimates news popularity bymeasuring cosine similarity between document embeddings of the news articles. Word2vec model has been used togenerate distributed representations of the news content. In this work, we define popularity as the number of timesa news article is posted on different websites. We collect data from different websites that post news concerning thedomain of cybersecurity and estimate the popularity of cybersecurity news. The proposed approach is comparedwith different models and it is shown that it outperforms the other models.

文摘Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of acupoint catgut embedding(ACE)in combination with Chinese herbal medicine(CHM)in treating chronic urticaria(CU).Methods:We thoroughly searched Embase,PubMed,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wangfang database,Chinese Scientific Journal Database(VIP),and Chinese biomedical literature database(SinoMed)for relevant studies from inception until May 2022.Randomized controlled trials(RCTs)on ACE combined with CHM for CU were included.Literature search,data extraction,and risk of bias assessment were independently conducted by two authors.Results:A total of 15 RCTs with 1065 participants were included in this review.Five trials reported that the combined therapy showed a higher total effective rate,and four trials reported that the combined therapy was associated with a lower level of serum immunoglobulin E.Furthermore,two,four,and four trials reported that the combined therapy was more effective in reducing itching degree,size,and number of wheals,respectively.The combined therapy was reported to be associated with a lower recurrence rate in three trials,and with a fewer adverse reaction rate in two trials.Conclusions:ACE in combination with CHM appears to be a safe and effective therapy for patients with CU.Given the relatively low quality of the included trials,these findings should be interpreted cautiously.Further high-quality RCTs are needed to confirm our findings.
文摘Throughout scientific research, the state space reconstruction that embeds a non-linear time series is the first and necessary step for characterizing and predicting the behavior of a complex system. This requires to choose appropriate values of time delay T and embedding dimension dE. Three methods are applied and discussed on nonlinear time series provided by the Rössler attractor equations set: Cao’s method, the C-C method developed by Kim et al. and the C-C-1 method developed by Cai et al. A way to fix a parameter necessary to implement the last method is given. Focus has been put on small size and/or noisy time series. The reconstruction quality is measured by using a criterion based on the transformation smoothness.

文摘Let G be a group.The family of all sets which are closed in every Hausdorf group topology of G form the family of closed sets of a T_(1) topology M_(G) on G called the Markov topology.Similarly,the family of all algebraic subsets of G forms a family of closed sets for another T_(1)topology Z_(G) on G called the Zarski topology.A subgroup H of G is said to be Markov(resp.Zarski)embedded if the equality M_(G|H)=M_(H)(resp.Z_(G|H)=Z_(H))holds.I's proved that an abirary subgroup of a free group is both Zariski and Markov embedded in it.

文摘Digital watermarking must balance imperceptibility,robustness,complexity,and security.To address the challenge of computational efficiency in trellis-based informed embedding,we propose a modified watermarking framework that integrates fuzzy c-means(FCM)clustering into the generation off block codewords for labeling trellis arcs.The system incorporates a parallel trellis structure,controllable embedding parameters,and a novel informed embedding algorithm with reduced complexity.Two types of embedding schemes—memoryless and memory-based—are designed to flexibly trade-off between imperceptibility and robustness.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms existing approaches in bit error rate(BER)and computational complexity under various attacks,including additive noise,filtering,JPEG compression,cropping,and rotation.The integration of FCM enhances robustness by increasing the codeword distance,while preserving perceptual quality.Overall,the proposed framework is suitable for real-time and secure watermarking applications.

文摘Tibetan medical named entity recognition(Tibetan MNER)involves extracting specific types of medical entities from unstructured Tibetan medical texts.Tibetan MNER provide important data support for the work related to Tibetan medicine.However,existing Tibetan MNER methods often struggle to comprehensively capture multi-level semantic information,failing to sufficiently extract multi-granularity features and effectively filter out irrelevant information,which ultimately impacts the accuracy of entity recognition.This paper proposes an improved embedding representation method called syllable-word-sentence embedding.By leveraging features at different granularities and using un-scaled dot-product attention to focus on key features for feature fusion,the syllable-word-sentence embedding is integrated into the transformer,enhancing the specificity and diversity of feature representations.The model leverages multi-level and multi-granularity semantic information,thereby improving the performance of Tibetan MNER.We evaluate our proposed model on datasets from various domains.The results indicate that the model effectively identified three types of entities in the Tibetan news dataset we constructed,achieving an F1 score of 93.59%,which represents an improvement of 1.24%compared to the vanilla FLAT.Additionally,results from the Tibetan medical dataset we developed show that it is effective in identifying five kinds of medical entities,with an F1 score of 71.39%,which is a 1.34%improvement over the vanilla FLAT.
