However, the characteristics and mechanisms driving summer EHEs over the MP(MP-EHEs) remain unclear. This study explores the interannual variations in summer MP-EHEs and their relationship with the summer soil moisture over the Inner Tibetan Plateau(TP-SM). The results reveal that changes in the MP-EHEs are linked to descending atmospheric motion induced by a local high-pressure system over the MP region. Descending motion further results in decreased mid-tolow-level cloud cover and increased shortwave radiation, thereby warming the surface and triggering summer MP-EHEs.Further analysis indicates that increased TP-SM results in a greater latent heat flux, triggering a local secondary circulation that reinforces the local high-pressure system over the MP region, thus serving to promote the occurrence of summer MPEHEs. Additionally, model results from the linear baroclinic model(LBM) and CMIP6 further confirm that variations in summer TP-SM contribute to the occurrence of the MP-EHEs.展开更多

文摘In this study,the mechanism and characteristics of the responseαparticles and the damage caused by them in CMOS active pixel(APS)sensors were investigated.A detection and compensation algorithm for dead pixels caused byαparticle ionizing radiation was proposed,and the effects of dead-pixel compensation algorithms were compared and analyzed under different parameter conditions.The experimental results show thatαparticle response signal has highest accuracy at 9 dB gain,with an obvious“target-ring”distribution.With increasing cumulative dose,the CMOS APS pedestal tends to saturation while dead pixels continue increasing.Though some pixel damage recovers through natural annealing,the dead-to-noise ratio increases with irradiation time,reaching 32.54%after 72 h.A hierarchical clustering dead-pixel detection method is proposed,categorizing pixels into two types:those within and outside the response event.A classification compensation strategy combining mean and majority filtering is proposed.This compensation algorithm can address dead-pixel interference without affectingαparticle radiation response data.When iterated multiple times and with integration time exceeding 6.31 ms,the number of dead pixels can be effectively reduced.

文摘Recent studies have suggested that rapid warming over the Mongolian Plateau(MP) may intensify extreme heat events(EHEs). However, the characteristics and mechanisms driving summer EHEs over the MP(MP-EHEs) remain unclear. This study explores the interannual variations in summer MP-EHEs and their relationship with the summer soil moisture over the Inner Tibetan Plateau(TP-SM). The results reveal that changes in the MP-EHEs are linked to descending atmospheric motion induced by a local high-pressure system over the MP region. Descending motion further results in decreased mid-tolow-level cloud cover and increased shortwave radiation, thereby warming the surface and triggering summer MP-EHEs.Further analysis indicates that increased TP-SM results in a greater latent heat flux, triggering a local secondary circulation that reinforces the local high-pressure system over the MP region, thus serving to promote the occurrence of summer MPEHEs. Additionally, model results from the linear baroclinic model(LBM) and CMIP6 further confirm that variations in summer TP-SM contribute to the occurrence of the MP-EHEs.

文摘The global monsoon system,encompassing the Asian-Australian,African,and American monsoons,sustains two-thirds of the world’s population by regulating water resources and agriculture.Monsoon anomalies pose severe risks,including floods and droughts.Recent research associated with the implementation of the Global Monsoons Model Intercomparison Project under the umbrella of CMIP6 has advanced our understanding of its historical variability and driving mechanisms.Observational data reveal a 20th-century shift:increased rainfall pre-1950s,followed by aridification and partial recovery post-1980s,driven by both internal variability(e.g.,Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation)and external forcings(greenhouse gases,aerosols),while ENSO drives interannual variability through ocean-atmosphere interactions.Future projections under greenhouse forcing suggest long-term monsoon intensification,though regional disparities and model uncertainties persist.Models indicate robust trends but struggle to quantify extremes,where thermodynamic effects(warming-induced moisture rise)uniformly boost heavy rainfall,while dynamical shifts(circulation changes)create spatial heterogeneity.Volcanic eruptions and proposed solar radiation modification(SRM)further complicate predictions:tropical eruptions suppress monsoons,whereas high-latitude events alter cross-equatorial flows,highlighting unresolved feedbacks.The emergent constraint approach is booming in terms of correcting future projections and reducing uncertainty with respect to the global monsoons.Critical challenges remain.Model biases and sparse 20th-century observational data hinder accurate attribution.The interplay between natural variability and anthropogenic forcings,along with nonlinear extreme precipitation risks under warming,demands deeper mechanistic insights.Additionally,SRM’s regional impacts and hemispheric monsoon interactions require systematic evaluation.Addressing these gaps necessitates enhanced observational networks,refined climate models,and interdisciplinary efforts to disentangle multiscale drivers,ultimately improving resilience strategies for monsoon-dependent regions.

文摘Background:The purpose of this study was to analyze and classify adverse drug events(ADEs)related to ceftazidime/avibactam reported in the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System(FAERS)database and to evaluate their potential safety signals since the drug’s market introduction.Methods:This analysis systematically extracted and filtered FAERS data for ceftazidime/avibactam from its market launch in 2015 to the last quarter of 2024,utilizing the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities(MedDRA)terminology for ADE recoding.The analysis employed the reporting odds ratio(ROR)method to assess the strength of ADE signals and to identify significant diseases associated with infections,the hepatobiliary system,the urinary system,and the nervous system.Results:A review of 540 adverse reaction reports revealed significant signals of adverse effects related to infections,hepatobiliary disorders,urinary system issues,and neurological impairments,including pathogen resistance,liver and kidney function impairment,encephalopathy,thrombocytopenia,and toxic epidermal necrolysis.However,these issues require further clinical attention.Conclusion:Ceftazidime/avibactam is associated with a range of adverse reactions,necessitating enhanced clinical monitoring,particularly in patients with underlying liver or kidney dysfunction.Continuous risk assessment and vigilant monitoring are critical for its clinical use.However,this study is limited by inherent reporting biases and confounders associated with the spontaneous reporting database(FAERS).Future research should validate these signals through prospective cohort and mechanistic studies and explore personalized risk management strategies for high-risk populations.

文摘Background In patients with coronary artery disease,age is of known significance in predicting outcomes.Data on clinical outcomes in patients≥85 years undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)remain scarce.The study aim was to determine clinical characteristics,risk of adverse cardiovascular events,and mortality in patients aged≥85 years compared to those aged<85 undergoing PCI.Methods In this retrospective study,data were obtained from the nationwide Netherlands Heart Registration on patients undergoing PCI between January 1st,2017 and January 1st,2021.The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality at long-term followup.Results A total of 155,683 patients underwent PCI,of which 100,209(64.4%)acute coronary syndrome cases.Compared to patients aged<85 years,patients aged≥85 were more often female and showed a higher number of cardiovascular comorbidities,including impaired left ventricle ejection fraction and reduced kidney function.Mortality at short-term and long-term follow-up were significantly higher in those aged≥85(P<0.001).Patients aged≥85 were more likely to have a myocardial infarction within 30 days following the index intervention(0.9%vs.0.7%;P=0.024),though they less often underwent revascularization at longterm follow-up compared to patients aged<85(P<0.001).Conclusions The elderly(≥85 years)patient requiring PCI carries an extensive cardiovascular risk profile,translating in significant risk of recurrent cardiovascular events and increased mortality rate.Clinicians should carefully weigh perceived risks and potential benefits in the individual patient,considering the patients’age,cardiovascular risk profile,and associated risk of morbidity and mortality.
文摘We develop and implement a Stochastic Discrete Event Simulation(SDES)algorithm to model the housing re-covery trajectory after an extreme event.The algorithm models discrete events and their underlying uncertainties in each construction phase.Specifically,the algorithm is developed for the Government Assisted Owner Driven(GAOD)reconstruction system to simulate long-term recovery trajectory.SDES,as a flexible modeling approach,can simulate any housing recovery scenario that follows phased reconstruction.The 2015 M 7.8 Gorkha earthquake sequence in Nepal is considered the extreme event,with 796,245 buildings requiring reconstruction.We present some recovery trajectories from severely hit,crisis hit,and earthquake hit parishes,comparing them with the actual reconstruction progress.We also assess quality and improvement of reconstructed buildings using seismic fragility functions,compared to pre-earthquake constructions.Housing recovery uncertainties are dissected in relation to reconstruction pace.We conclude that the vast majority of the reconstructed buildings followed the Build Back Better(BBB)approach and missed the opportunity to pursue the Build Back Resilient(BBR)approach due to multifaceted challenges ranging from unclear policies to economic constraints.We critically assess the GAOD vs Owner Driven(OD)recovery framework and conclude that insurance-supported and technically assisted OD approach could be the most suitable model for post extreme event housing recovery.
