We examined the long-term prognostic value of CT-FFR combined with CCTA–defined atherosclerotic extent in diabetic patients with coronary artery disease(CAD).Methods A retrospective pooled analysis of individual patient data was performed. Deep-learning-based vessel-specific CTFFR was calculated. All patients enrolled were followed-up for at least 5 years. Predictive abilities for major adverse cardiac events(MACE) were compared among three models(model 1), constructed using clinical variables;model 2, model 1+CCTA–derived atherosclerotic extent(Leiden risk score);and model 3, model 2+CT-FFR.Results A total of 480 diabetic patients [median age, 61(55–66) years;52.9% men] were included. During a median follow-up time of 2197(2126–2355) days, 55 patients(11.5%) experienced MACE. In multivariate-adjusted Cox models, Leiden risk score(HR: 1.06;95% CI: 1.01–1.11;P = 0.013) and CT-FFR ≤ 0.80(HR: 6.54;95% CI: 3.18–13.45;P < 0.001) were the independent predictors. The discriminant ability was higher in model 2 than in model 1(C-index, 0.75 vs. 0.63;P < 0.001) and was further promoted by adding CT-FFR to model 3(C-index, 0.81 vs. 0.75;P = 0.002). Net reclassification improvement(NRI) was 0.19(P = 0.009) for model 2 beyond model 1. Of note, adding CT-FFR to model 3 also exhibited significantly improved reclassification compared with model 2(NRI = 0.14;P = 0.011).Conclusion In diabetic patients with CAD, CT-FFR provides robust and incremental prognostic information for predicting longterm outcomes. The combined model exhibits improved prediction abilities, which is beneficial for risk stratification.展开更多

文摘Insight into the carbon turnover in soil aggregates and density fractions is essential for reducing the uncertainty in estimating carbon pools on the Tibetan Plateau,and how they vary with land use type is unclear.In this study,the effect of land use type on carbon storage and fractionation was quantified based on organic carbon and its^(13)C abundance at the microscale of soil aggregates and density fractions in Tibetan alpine ecosystems.The sequence of soil aggregate destruction in the land use types of plantation(13.1%)<shrubland(32.7%)<grassland(47.9%)<farmland(61.8%)shows that plantations strengthen the soil structure.Plantation land had a greater contribution of light fraction organic carbon(28.3%)but a lower contribution of mineral-associated organic carbon(40.6%)to the carbon stock compared to farmland(13.5 and 70.3%).Interestingly,plantation land enhanced the aggregational differentiation of organic carbon and^(13)C in each density fraction,whereas no such phenomenon existed in the soil organic carbon.Carbon isotope analyses revealed that carbon transfer in the plantation land occurred from the light fraction in macroaggregates(–24.9‰)to the mineral-associated fraction in microaggregates(–19.9‰).When compared to the other three land use types,the low transferability of carbon in aggregates and density fractions in plantation land provides a stable carbon pool for the Tibetan Plateau.This study shows that plantations can mitigate global climate change by slowing carbon transfer and increasing carbon storage at the microscale of aggregates and density fractions in alpine regions.

文摘We investigate the constrained fractional Choquard equation■where m>0,N>2s with s∈(0,1)being the order of the fractional Laplacian operator and I_(α)forα∈(0,N)denotes the Riesz potential.The parameterμ∈ℝappears as a Lagrange multiplier.By imposing general mass-supercritical conditions on F,we confirm the existence of normalized solutions that characterize the global minimizer on the Pohozaev manifold.Our proof does not depend on the assumption that all weak solutions satisfy the Pohozaev identity,a challenge that remains unsolved for this doubly nonlocal equation.

文摘SiCp-reinforced 6092Al composites with volume fractions of 25%and 60%were prepared using a powder metallurgy method.Their friction and wear characteristics were analyzed using a reciprocating friction and wear testing machine under loads of 20 to 50 N against YG6 cemented carbide.The experimental results show that the friction coefficients of all samples increase with increasing load.The 25vol%composite exhibits the lowest friction coefficient(0.1669-0.2716),while the 60vol%composite exhibits the highest(0.3237-0.3990),with the 6092 aluminum alloy falling between the two.The wear volume and specific wear rate also increase with load,but the composites with a higher Si C content demonstrate smaller increments,with the 60vol%composite exhibiting superior wear resistance.Under a 30 N load,the wear scars of the 60vol%composite show a significant increase in the contents of elements such as C,Co,W,and O,indicating more severe wear of the counterpart material.Scanning electron microscopy(SEM)reveals wear mechanisms including adhesive wear,two-body sliding and three-body rolling wear of particles,and delamination.

文摘The fractional quantum Hall effect remains a captivating area in condensed matter physics,characterized by strongly correlated topological order,which manifests as fractionalized excitations and anyonic statistics.Numerical simulations,such as exact diagonalization,density matrix renormalization groups,matrix product states,and Monte Carlo methods are essential for examining the properties of strongly correlated systems.Recently,density functional theory has been employed in this field within the framework of composite fermion theory.This paper systematically evaluates how density functional theory approaches have addressed fundamental challenges in fractional quantum Hall systems,including ground state and low-energy excitations.Special attention is given to the insights provided by density functional theory regarding composite fermion behavior,edge effects,and the nature of fractional charge and magnetoroton excitations.The discussion critically examines both the advantages and limitations of these approaches,while highlighting the productive interplay between numerical simulations and theoretical models.Future directions are explored,particularly the promising potential of time-dependent density functional theory for modeling non-equilibrium dynamics in quantum Hall systems.

文摘This paper introduces a novel fractional-order model based on the Caputo-Fabrizio(CF)derivative for analyzing computer virus propagation in networked environments.The model partitions the computer population into four compartments:susceptible,latently infected,breaking-out,and antivirus-capable systems.By employing the CF derivative—which uses a nonsingular exponential kernel—the framework effectively captures memory-dependent and nonlocal characteristics intrinsic to cyber systems,aspects inadequately represented by traditional integer-order models.Under Lipschitz continuity and boundedness assumptions,the existence and uniqueness of solutions are rigorously established via fixed-point theory.We develop a tailored two-step Adams-Bashforth numerical scheme for the CF framework and prove its second-order accuracy.Extensive numerical simulations across various fractional orders reveal that memory effects significantly influence virus transmission and control dynamics;smaller fractional orders produce more pronounced memory effects,delaying both infection spread and antivirus activation.Further theoretical analysis,including Hyers-Ulam stability and sensitivity assessments,reinforces the model’s robustness and identifies key parameters governing virus dynamics.The study also extends the framework to incorporate stochastic effects through a stochastic CF formulation.These results underscore fractional-order modeling as a powerful analytical tool for developing robust and effective cybersecurity strategies.
文摘Grifola frondosa(Maitake)is traditionally valued for its health benefits,with polysaccharides being key bioactive components.This paper investigates a specific subfraction,Fraction D(GFP-D),evaluating its clinical effects and mechanisms in immune enhancement,adjunctive anti-tumor activity,and regulation of glucose/lipid metabolism.Three clinical trials were conducted.In an immune study,120 healthy volunteers(CD4+T cell count 500–1000 cells/μL)received 150 mg/day GFP-D for 8 weeks,resulting in significant increases in CD4+T cells(from 632±95 to 812±108 cells/μL,28.5%increase,within the physiological activation range),CD4+/CD8+ratio,NK cell activity,IL-2,and IFN-γ(all P<0.001 vs.placebo).An anti-tumor study with 80 advanced cancer patients(stratified by age,tumor stage,and histotype)showed that adding 1000 mg/day GFP-D to chemotherapy improved objective response rate(52.5%vs.30.0%,P=0.036,95%CI:1.02–3.87),one-year progression-free survival(55.8%vs.33.3%,P=0.022),and preserved immune parameters versus chemotherapy alone.A metabolic study in 90 type 2 diabetes patients found that 400 mg/day GFP-D for 12 weeks significantly lowered fasting glucose,HbA1c,total cholesterol,triglycerides,and LDL-C,while raising HDL-C(from 1.0±0.2 to 1.2±0.2 mmol/L,20%increase,supported by increased AMPK phosphorylation).Mechanistically,immune enhancement involves macrophage/dendritic cell activation via Dectin-1/TLR4 receptors(confirmed by increased receptor expression and downstream signaling molecules),promoting cytokine-driven T/NK cell responses.Anti-tumor effects stem from immunomodulation,direct induction of cancer cell apoptosis(via mitochondrial/caspase pathways,verified by increased Bax/Bcl-2 ratio and caspase-3 activation),and angiogenesis inhibition by downregulating VEGF.Metabolic benefits are linked to AMPK pathway activation in liver/muscle(confirmed by increased p-AMPK/AMPK ratio),enhancing glucose uptake and inhibiting gluconeogenesis/lipogenesis,alongside modulation of gut microbiota(increased Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus abundance).All trials reported no severe adverse events related to GFP-D;liver/kidney function parameters(ALT,AST,creatinine,urea nitrogen)remained within normal ranges throughout the intervention.Collectively,GFP-D emerges as a multi-functional bioactive agent with substantial therapeutic potential.

文摘In this paper,we first give a sufficient condition for a graph being fractional ID-[a,b]-factor-critical covered in terms of its independence number and minimum degree,which partially answers the problem posed by Sizhong Zhou,Hongxia Liu and Yang Xu(2022).Then,an A_(α)-spectral condition is given to ensure that G is a fractional ID-[a,b]-factor-critical covered graph and an(a,b,k)-factor-critical graph,respectively.In fact,(a,b,k)-factor-critical graph is a graph which has an[a,b]-factor for k=0.Thus,these above results extend the results of Jia Wei and Shenggui Zhang(2023)and Ao Fan,Ruifang Liu and Guoyan Ao(2023)in some sense.
