Experimental results indicate that with the increase of the tool wear, the surface of the machined workpiece tends to generate tensile residual stresses, and white layer becomes clearly thicker and uneven on the workpiece surface. The effect of the flank wear on the surface roughness is less within some range of flank wear value. The results show that it is possible to produce ideal surface integrality levels by controlling the tool flank wear.展开更多

文摘This editorial examines the emerging potential of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)in enhancing postoperative recovery following gastroenteroscopy,highlighted by a 2025 randomized controlled trial by Hong et al.The study,involving 120 patients,demonstrates that meridian flow injection(MFI)combined with transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation(TEAS)significantly improves gastrointestinal(GI)function,evidenced by a reduced time to first defecation(3.20±1.04 days vs 3.98±1.27 days,P<0.001),lowers stress biomarkers(e.g.,reduced cortisol and norepinephrine),and enhances clinical efficacy(93.33%vs 75.00%,P=0.006).Leveraging TCM’s five-element theory and Ziwu Liuzhu timing,the intervention targets key acupoints such as Zusanli(ST36)with a herbal paste comprising Qingpi,Houpu,and rhubarb,delivered transdermally to optimize bioavailability.This approach harmonizes ancient TCM principles with contemporary evidence-based practice,offering a holistic strategy to address postoperative nausea,delayed motility,and patient discomfort.Currently,integrative methods like MFI-TEAS are gaining traction,supported by recent meta-analyses that affirm TEAS’s efficacy in accelerating GI recovery across surgical contexts,including shortened times to first exhaust and defecation.This reflects a growing recognition of TCM’s role in perioperative care amidst rising global endoscopy demands.Looking forward,future research should prioritize multicenter,doubleblinded trials to enhance generalizability,adhere to standardized reporting frameworks such as CONSORT and STRICTA,and employ advanced tools like multiomics and functional magnetic resonance imaging to elucidate mechanistic pathways,including gut-brain axis modulation and microbiota-immune interactions.Such developments promise to refine these interventions,fostering a seamless integration of TCM with Western medicine and delivering tailored,patientcentered solutions to improve postoperative outcomes worldwide.

文摘Flexible electronics face critical challenges in achieving monolithic three-dimensional(3D)integration,including material compatibility,structural stability,and scalable fabrication methods.Inspired by the tactile sensing mechanism of the human skin,we have developed a flexible monolithic 3D-integrated tactile sensing system based on a holey MXene paste,where each vertical one-body unit simultaneously functions as a microsupercapacitor and pressure sensor.The in-plane mesopores of MXene significantly improve ion accessibility,mitigate the self-stacking of nanosheets,and allow the holey MXene to multifunctionally act as a sensing material,an active electrode,and a conductive interconnect,thus drastically reducing the interface mismatch and enhancing the mechanical robustness.Furthermore,we fabricate a large-scale device using a blade-coating and stamping method,which demonstrates excellent mechanical flexibility,low-power consumption,rapid response,and stable long-term operation.As a proof-of-concept application,we integrate our sensing array into a smart access control system,leveraging deep learning to accurately identify users based on their unique pressing behaviors.This study provides a promising approach for designing highly integrated,intelligent,and flexible electronic systems for advanced human-computer interactions and personalized electronics.

文摘Multisensory integration allows biological organisms to merge information from various sensory modalities,enhancing perception,decision-making,and adaptability in complex environments.This process,involving specialized cortical and subcortical areas,reduces uncertainty,speeds up responses,enriches perception,and supports adaptive behaviors.Recent findings reveal that even primary sensory cortices contribute to multisensory processing,further boosting adaptability and decisionmaking.Inspired by these natural capabilities,researchers aim to develop artificial systems replicating biological sensory integration to address challenges in robotics,artificial intelligence,and big data.Current artificial systems,often reliant on single-modal perception,struggle in dynamic environments due to their limited adaptability.Advances in materials,device architectures,and neuromorphic technologies,such as memristor-and transistor-based neurons,are enabling the development of multimodal systems with enhanced efficiency,flexibility,and functionality.This review explores strategies to overcome single-modal limitations,focusing on synchronization,fusion,and deep interpretation of sensory data.Future directions emphasize improving integration density,novel device designs,and adaptable mechanisms.Multimodal systems hold promise to revolutionize artificial perception,narrowing the gap between biological systems and intelligent technologies.

文摘Carbon-based air cathodes offer low cost,high electrical conductivity,and structural tunability.However,they suffer from limited catalytic activity and inefficient gas transport,and they typically rely on noble metal additives or complex multilayer configurations.To tackle these issues,this study devised a self-activated integrated carbon-based air cathode.By integrating in situ catalytic site construction with structural optimization,the strategy not only induces the formation of oxygen functional groups(─C─OH,─C═O,─COOH),hierarchical pores,and uniformly distributed active sites,but also establishes a favorable electronic and mass-transport environment.Furthermore,the roll-pressing-based integrated design streamlines electrode construction,reinforces interfacial bonding,and significantly enhances mechanical stability.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations show that oxygen functional groups initiate hydrogen bonding interaction and promote charge enrichment,which improves the activity of the cathode and facilitates intermediate adsorption/desorption in oxygen reduction and evolution reactions processes.As a result,the integrated air cathode-based rechargeable zinc-air batteries(RZABs)achieve a high specific capacity of 811 mAh g^(-1).It also performs well in quasi-solid-state RZABs and silicon-air batteries systems across a wide temperature range,demonstrating strong adaptability and application potential.This study provides a scalable and cost-effective design strategy for high-performance carbon-based air cathodes,offering new insights into advancing durable and practical metal-air energy systems.

文摘The rapid growth of biomedical data,particularly multi-omics data including genomes,transcriptomics,proteomics,metabolomics,and epigenomics,medical research and clinical decision-making confront both new opportunities and obstacles.The huge and diversified nature of these datasets cannot always be managed using traditional data analysis methods.As a consequence,deep learning has emerged as a strong tool for analysing numerous omics data due to its ability to handle complex and non-linear relationships.This paper explores the fundamental concepts of deep learning and how they are used in multi-omics medical data mining.We demonstrate how autoencoders,variational autoencoders,multimodal models,attention mechanisms,transformers,and graph neural networks enable pattern analysis and recognition across all omics data.Deep learning has been found to be effective in illness classification,biomarker identification,gene network learning,and therapeutic efficacy prediction.We also consider critical problems like as data quality,model explainability,whether findings can be repeated,and computational power requirements.We now consider future elements of combining omics with clinical and imaging data,explainable AI,federated learning,and real-time diagnostics.Overall,this study emphasises the need of collaborating across disciplines to advance deep learning-based multi-omics research for precision medicine and comprehending complicated disorders.
文摘Exogenous neural stem cell transplantation has become one of the most promising treatment methods for chronic stroke.Recent studies have shown that most ischemia-reperfusion model rats recover spontaneously after injury,which limits the ability to observe long-term behavioral recovery.Here,we used a severe stroke rat model with 150 minutes of ischemia,which produced severe behavioral deficiencies that persisted at 12 weeks,to study the therapeutic effect of neural stem cells on neural restoration in chronic stroke.Our study showed that stroke model rats treated with human neural stem cells had long-term sustained recovery of motor function,reduced infarction volume,long-term human neural stem cell survival,and improved local inflammatory environment and angiogenesis.We also demonstrated that transplanted human neural stem cells differentiated into mature neurons in vivo,formed stable functional synaptic connections with host neurons,and exhibited the electrophysiological properties of functional mature neurons,indicating that they replaced the damaged host neurons.The findings showed that human fetal-derived neural stem cells had long-term effects for neurological recovery in a model of severe stroke,which suggests that human neural stem cells-based therapy may be effective for repairing damaged neural circuits in stroke patients.

文摘This letter introduces the novel concept of Painlevé solitons—waves arising from the interaction between Painlevé waves and solitons in integrable systems.Painlevé solitons can also be viewed as solitons propagating against a Painlevé wave background,in analogy to the established notion of elliptic solitons,which refers to solitons on an elliptic wave background.By employing a novel symmetry decomposition method aided by nonlocal residual symmetries,we explicitly construct (extended) Painlevé Ⅱ solitons for the Korteweg-de Vries equation and (extended) Painlevé Ⅳ solitons for the Boussinesq equation.

文摘Does traditional Chinese economic thought possess genuine analytical rigor?This question lies at the heart of any serious evaluation of its theoretical value and historical significance.It also matters for understanding how best to preserve,build on its remarkable achievements,and develop its intellectual legacy.Critics such as Schumpeter and Taylor have long argued that the economic reasoning found in ancient China cannot compare with that of classical Greece or medieval Europe.Yet this view often reflects the narrow assumptions of mainstream economics,defining analysis almost entirely in terms of market exchange.As a result,it tends to overlook traditions built around statecraft,governance,and the management of economic order.A careful re-examination and Sino-Western comparative analysis of key thinkers-including Mencius,Guanzi,and Sima Qian-tells a different story.Rooted in China’s distinctive cultural and philosophical heritage,traditional Chinese economic thought not only contains the analytical dimensions(as defined by Schumpeter)but also displays a broader and more diverse set of economic reasoning.Notably,its systematic depth and intellectual precision were,in many respects,remarkably advanced.Therefore,advancing the construction of a Chinese school of economics in the new era under the framework of the“Second Integration”,i.e.,integrating the basic tenets of Marxism with China’s fine traditional culture,should,and indeed can draw essential insights from this analytical tradition.

文摘As one of the major volatile components in extraterrestrial materials,nitrogen(N_(2))isotopes serve not only as tracers for the formation and evolution of the solar system,but also play a critical role in assessing planetary habitability and the search for extraterrestrial life.The integrated measurement of N_(2)and argon(Ar)isotopes by using noble gas mass spectrometry represents a state-of-the-art technique for such investigations.To support the growing demands of planetary science research in China,we have developed a high-efficiency,high-precision method for the integrated analysis of N_(2)and Ar isotopes.This was achieved by enhancing gas extraction and purification systems and integrating them with a static noble gas mass spectrometer.This method enables integrated N_(2)-Ar isotope measurements on submilligram samples,significantly improving sample utilization and reducing the impact of sample heterogeneity on volatile analysis.The system integrates CO_(2)laser heating,a modular two-stage Zr-Al getter pump,and a CuO furnace-based purification process,effectively reducing background levels(N_(2)blank as low as 0.35×10^(−6)cubic centimeters at standard temperature and pressure[ccSTP]).Analytical precision is ensured through calibration with atmospheric air and CO corrections.To validate the reliability of the method,we performed N_(2)-Ar isotope analyses on the Allende carbonaceous chondrite,one of the most extensively studied meteorites internationally.The measured N_(2)concentrations range from 19.2 to 29.8 ppm,withδ15N values between−44.8‰and−33.0‰.Concentrations of 40Ar,36Ar,and 38Ar are(12.5-21.1)×10^(−6)ccSTP/g,(90.9-150.3)×10^(−9)ccSTP/g,and(19.2-30.7)×10^(−9)ccSTP/g,respectively.These values correspond to cosmic-ray exposure ages of 4.5-5.7 Ma,consistent with previous reports.Step-heating experiments further reveal distinct release patterns of N and Ar isotopes,as well as their associations with specific mineral phases in the meteorite.In summary,the combined N_(2)-Ar isotopic system offers significant advantages for tracing volatile sources in extraterrestrial materials and will provide essential analytical support for upcoming Chinese planetary missions,such as Tianwen-2.
