In this paper, a tentative attempt at introducing the fuzzy set theory into quantitative analysis and assessment of URT trains' failures was presented. Based on the proposed FMEA-fuzzy model, a com- puter aided system for URT maintenance optimization was developed. The overall structure and procedure of the system were described in detail, and the important issues, including the development environment, improvement to FMEA table, acquisition of weight distribution matrix P, and setting of fuzzy vector R, were also discussed. Initial application into the vehicle maintenance of Shanghai Metro System shows, that the proposed model and computer aided system have a good performance and consequently are worth further development.展开更多

Consequently, quan...The fractionating tower bottom in fluid catalytic cracking Unit (FCCU) is highly susceptible to coking due to the interplay of complex external operating conditions and internal physical properties. Consequently, quantitative risk assessment (QRA) and predictive maintenance (PdM) are essential to effectively manage coking risks influenced by multiple factors. However, the inherent uncertainties of the coking process, combined with the mixed-frequency nature of distributed control systems (DCS) and laboratory information management systems (LIMS) data, present significant challenges for the application of data-driven methods and their practical implementation in industrial environments. This study proposes a hierarchical framework that integrates deep learning and fuzzy logic inference, leveraging data and domain knowledge to monitor the coking condition and inform prescriptive maintenance planning. The framework proposes the multi-layer fuzzy inference system to construct the coking risk index, utilizes multi-label methods to select the optimal feature dataset across the reactor-regenerator and fractionation system using coking risk factors as label space, and designs the parallel encoder-integrated decoder architecture to address mixed-frequency data disparities and enhance adaptation capabilities through extracting the operation state and physical properties information. Additionally, triple attention mechanisms, whether in parallel or temporal modules, adaptively aggregate input information and enhance intrinsic interpretability to support the disposal decision-making. Applied in the 2.8 million tons FCCU under long-period complex operating conditions, enabling precise coking risk management at the fractionating tower bottom.展开更多

文摘In recent years, urban rail transit (URT) systems have rapidly developed in China, however, their existing strategies for vehicle maintenance are still based on experiential and qualitative methods which result in either high cost or emergencies. In this paper, a tentative attempt at introducing the fuzzy set theory into quantitative analysis and assessment of URT trains' failures was presented. Based on the proposed FMEA-fuzzy model, a com- puter aided system for URT maintenance optimization was developed. The overall structure and procedure of the system were described in detail, and the important issues, including the development environment, improvement to FMEA table, acquisition of weight distribution matrix P, and setting of fuzzy vector R, were also discussed. Initial application into the vehicle maintenance of Shanghai Metro System shows, that the proposed model and computer aided system have a good performance and consequently are worth further development.

文摘BACKGROUND Eosinophilic esophagitis(EoE)is a chronic inflammatory disorder presenting as symptoms of dysphagia,esophageal food impaction,chest pain,and heartburn.After an initial trial of proton pump inhibitor(PPI)therapy,swallowed topical corticosteroids(STC)are effective as induction therapy for EoE.However,out-come data for STC as a maintenance strategy is limited.RESULTS Three randomized control trials and one observational study were included,involving 303 patients(189 in the STC group,114 in the placebo-controlled group).Analysis showed that histologic recurrence was significantly lower with STC(OR:0.04,95%CI:0.01-0.28,P<0.00001,I^(2)=78%).Overall symptom recurrence was similar between groups(OR:0.23,95%CI:0.02-3.54,P=0.29,I^(2)=92%).On sensitivity analysis,symptom recurrence was significantly lower in the STC group(OR:0.05,95%CI:0.02-0.17,P=0.00001,I^(2)=39%).Odds of repeat dilation were significantly lower in the STC group(OR:0.14,95%CI:0.02-0.91,P=0.04,I^(2)=0%).Candida infection rates were similar between groups(OR:6.13,95%CI:0.85-44.26,P=0.07,I^(2)=24%).Proportion of concomitant PPI use was similar between groups(OR:1.64,95%CI:0.83-3.21,P=0.15,I^(2)=0%).CONCLUSION For patients who successfully achieved remission of EoE with STC induction therapy,maintaining treatment is effective in sustaining histologic remission,while newer regimens may be effective in preventing symptom recurrence compared to placebo.We found no significant difference for oropharyngeal/esophageal candidiasis with STC maintenance therapy.Future studies with longer follow-up periods are needed.

文摘The fractionating tower bottom in fluid catalytic cracking Unit (FCCU) is highly susceptible to coking due to the interplay of complex external operating conditions and internal physical properties. Consequently, quantitative risk assessment (QRA) and predictive maintenance (PdM) are essential to effectively manage coking risks influenced by multiple factors. However, the inherent uncertainties of the coking process, combined with the mixed-frequency nature of distributed control systems (DCS) and laboratory information management systems (LIMS) data, present significant challenges for the application of data-driven methods and their practical implementation in industrial environments. This study proposes a hierarchical framework that integrates deep learning and fuzzy logic inference, leveraging data and domain knowledge to monitor the coking condition and inform prescriptive maintenance planning. The framework proposes the multi-layer fuzzy inference system to construct the coking risk index, utilizes multi-label methods to select the optimal feature dataset across the reactor-regenerator and fractionation system using coking risk factors as label space, and designs the parallel encoder-integrated decoder architecture to address mixed-frequency data disparities and enhance adaptation capabilities through extracting the operation state and physical properties information. Additionally, triple attention mechanisms, whether in parallel or temporal modules, adaptively aggregate input information and enhance intrinsic interpretability to support the disposal decision-making. Applied in the 2.8 million tons FCCU under long-period complex operating conditions, enabling precise coking risk management at the fractionating tower bottom.

文摘BACKGROUND No clear guidelines for long-term postoperative maintenance therapy have been established for patients with lung oligometastases from colorectal cancer(CRC)who achieve radiological no evidence of disease after radiofrequency ablation(RFA)treatment.We compared the outcomes of patients with lung oligometa-stases from CRC after RFA plus maintenance capecitabine with RFA alone.AIM To determine whether adding capecitabine to RFA improves prognosis compared with RFA alone.METHODS This multicenter retrospective study included consecutive patients from two tertiary cancer centers treated for pulmonary oligometastases from CRC between 2016 and 2023.Subjects were assigned to RFA plus capecitabine(combined)or RFA alone(only RFA)groups.Primary outcomes included overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS)survival and the secondary outcome was local tumor progression(LTP).The OS,PFS,and LTP rates were compared between the two groups.In addition,prognostic factors were identified using univariate and multivariate analyses.RESULTS Combination therapy(RFA+capecitabine,n=148)and RFA monotherapy(n=99)were compared in patients with CRC and lung metastases.The median OS was 37.8 months(22.4,50.3),the PFS was 18.7 months(13.0,36.5),and the LTP was 31.5 months(20.0,52.4)in the Only RFA group.The OS increased significantly(P=0.011)and the LTP decreased at all time points(P<0.001)in the combined group.The multivariate cox analysis revealed that combined chemotherapy significantly improved OS,with hazard ratios ranging from 0.29 to 0.35(all P<0.015)after adjusting for demographic,tumor,and treatment-related factors.The risk of death was consistently lower in the combination therapy group compared to RFA monotherapy.CONCLUSION RFA prolongs survival and local control in patients with CRC pulmonary oligometastases.Adjuvant capecitabine increases OS and reduces LTP compared to RFA alone,but PFS did not significantly change.
文摘Objective:To investigate the differential effects of different rivaroxaban dosing regimens on symptom relief,fluctuations in laboratory parameters,and medication safety in patients with stable pulmonary embolism(PE).Methods:This study enrolled 100 patients in the maintenance phase of PE who were treated at our hospital between January 2022 and December 2023.They were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group using a random number table,with 50 subjects in each group.The treatment period was uniformly set at 6 months.The control group received oral rivaroxaban 10 mg once daily,while the observation group received oral rivaroxaban 5 mg once daily.The study focused on comparing the two groups regarding the degree of clinical symptom relief,coagulation function parameters(including D-dimer levels,PT,and APTT),cardiac function markers(NT-proBNP),and drug-related adverse events.All data were processed using SPSS 26.0 statistical software.Measurement data are presented as mean±standard deviation,intergroup differences were verified by t-test,categorical variables were analyzed by chi-square test,and the statistical significance level was set at P<0.05.Results:After six months of treatment intervention,there was no significant difference in the overall relief of core clinical symptoms such as dyspnea and chest pain between the two groups.Regarding laboratory indicators,post-treatment D-dimer levels,prothrombin time,activated partial thromboplastin time,and NT-proBNP values were significantly optimized compared to baseline in both groups(P<0.05),but intergroup comparisons did not reach statistical significance.Notably,the overall incidence of bleeding events in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05),while there were no significant differences in the incidence rates of other adverse events between the two groups.Conclusion:In the maintenance phase treatment of pulmonary embolism,rivaroxaban 5 mg and 10 mg doses are equivalent in efficacy regarding improvement of clinical symptoms and blood indicators.However,the 5 mg dose significantly reduces the risk of bleeding,offers better safety,and is more suitable for long-term anticoagulation management in some high-risk populations.
文摘Preventing the recurrence of lung oligometastases after local therapy in patients with colorectal cancer is an area requiring investigation.A recent article demonstrated that adding capecitabine maintenance therapy after radiofrequency ablation improved the 5-year overall survival(88.7%vs 69.1%)and reduced local tumor progression(22.7%vs 49.0%)compared with radiofrequency ablation alone.Although progression-free survival did not differ significantly between the two treatments,multivariate analysis confirmed a robust survival benefit.These findings support the use of systemic maintenance to eradicate micrometastases after locoregional control and warrant validation in prospective randomized trials.
文摘This study focuses on the management of maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)patients,with a specific emphasis on the practical application effect of the network information management model including its impact on patients’compliance.A network information management model for MHD patients was constructed around three management schemes:“software reminders+follow-up guidance”,“dietary records+self-management reminders”,and“dialysis plan+precise weight management”.These schemes were respectively used to optimize anemia management,control the risk of hyperphosphatemia,and improve toxin clearance efficiency.A controlled experiment was conducted,with an experimental group and a control group set up for comparative practice.The results showed that the network information management model can effectively improve patients’anemia,help alleviate mineral metabolism disorders and the accumulation of small-molecule toxins,and exert a positive impact on patients’treatment compliance.
