The aim of this study was to compare and summarize published results of rAAA that underwent EVAR with open surgical repair （OSR）. Methods A search of publicly published literature was performed. Based on an inclusion and exclusion criteria, a systematic meta-analysis was undertaken to compare patient characteristics, complications, short term mortality and medium-long term outcomes. A random-effects model was used to pool the data and calculate pooled odds ratios and weighted mean differences. A quantitative method was used to analyze the differences between these two methods. Results A search of the published literature showed that fourteen English language papers comprising totally 1213 patients with rAAA （435 EVAR and 778 OSR） would be suitable for this study. Furthermore, 13 Chinese studies were included, including 267 patients with rAAA totally, among which 238 patients received operation. The endovascular method was associated with more respiratory diseases before treatment （OR=1.81, P=0.01）, while there are more patients with hemodynamic instability before treatment in OSR group （OR=1.53, P=0.031）. Mean blood transfusion was 1328 ml for EVAR and 2809 ml for OSR （weighted mean difference （WMD） 1500 ml, P=0.014）. The endovascular method was associated with a shorter stay in intensive care （WMD 2.34 days, P 〈0.001） and a shorter total post- operative stay （WMD 6.27 days, P 〈0.001）. The pooled post-operative complication rate of respiratory system and visceral ischemia seldom occurred in the EVAR group （OR=0.48, P 〈0.001 and OR=0.28, P=0.043, respectively）. The pooled 30-day mortality was 25.7% for EVAR and 39.6% for OSR, and the odds ratio was 0.53 （95% confidence interval （CI） 0.41-0.70, P 〈0.001）. There was not, however, any significant reduction in the medium-long all-cause mortality rate （HR=1.13, P=0.381） and re-intervention rate （OR= 2.19, ,~=-0.243） following EVAR. In EVAR group, nevertheless, incidence of type I endoleak was significantly lower than type II endoleak （OR=0.33, P=0.039） at late follow-up period. Conclusions On the basis of this systematic review, rAAA EVAR results in less blood use for transfusion, shorter operation time, shorter intensive care unit and hospital stays, and lower 30-day mortality. However, in the medium-long term, it is not associated with a reduction in all-cause mortality.展开更多

文摘In this study,the climatology and long-term trends of middle atmospheric temperatures at mid-latitudes are investigated using Rayleigh/Sodium lidar observations collected from January 2010 to December 2021 over Hefei,China(32°N,117°E).The seasonal variations and vertical profiles of lidar-derived temperatures demonstrate strong agreement with temperature measurements from the Microwave Limb Sounder(MLS)instrument on the Earth Observing System(EOS)Aura satellite.In terms of seasonal variation,middle atmospheric temperatures primarily exhibit annual oscillations(AO)and semi-annual oscillations(SAO).Harmonic analysis of the lidar and MLS temperature data reveals close phase alignment for both AO and SAO,with AO amplitudes ranging from 2 to 6 K,and SAO amplitudes from 1 to 4 K.The dependence of temperature on solar forcing was analyzed using the F10.7 index as a proxy,showing positive solar response coefficients at all altitudes,with a maximum of 15±1.1 K/100 SFU observed near 42–44 km.After removing the temperature response to solar cycle variations,a cooling trend in mid-latitude temperatures is evident across all altitudes,ranging from 3 to 6 K/decade.

文摘One of the cornerstones for guaranteeing the stability of wind generation and electric power system operation is wind speed prediction.This research offers a method based on Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)to optimize the Bidirectional Long Short⁃term Memory Network(BiLSTM)in order to improve the wind speed prediction accuracy,taking into account the highly stochastic and regular aspects of wind speed.Firstly,the wind speed time sequence is subjected to the Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise(CEEMDAN).The complexity of the wind speed pattern is reduced by decomposing it into components with different local feature information.The BiLSTM model,which incorporates the attention mechanism for prediction,is then fitted to the decomposed data,and its parameters are optimized using the particle swarm technique,reducing errors in predictive modeling.To get the final prediction,the components are finally superimposed.The empirical evidence shows that the CEEMDAN⁃PSO⁃BiLSTM⁃attention model decreases the RMSE(Root⁃Mean⁃Square⁃Error)by 15%-44%,the MAE by 18%-45%,the MAPE by 24%-52%,and the R2 by 1.4%-2.7%in comparison to the BiLSTM and other models.The validation of CEEMDAN⁃PSO⁃BiLSTM⁃attention model in short⁃term wind speed prediction is verified.

文摘BACKGROUND Necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC)remains a prominent gastrointestinal emergency among infants,particularly term infants with congenital heart defects(CHD)being at high risk.The molecular processes that contribute to NEC have yet to be completely understood.The high mortality rates necessitate an active search for noninvasive biomarkers that can aid in the preclinical diagnosis and prognosis of NEC.MicroRNAs(miRs),which are involved in many biological processes in both health and disease,have been discovered to play an important role in regulating inflammation and immune responses via various signaling pathways.AIM To determine the plasma levels of miR-155,miR-221,miR-223,miR-320a,miR-451a as potential NEC biomarkers in term newborns with CHD.METHODS This prospective cohort study included twenty-tree term newborns with CHD who underwent cardiac surgery on the median day of life(DOL)=7.Nine of them developed NEC(Bell’s stage IIA and IIIA)within 1 week of cardiac surgery(NEC newborns).Blood samples were collected before(median DOL=5)and following(median DOL=13)cardiac surgery.Levels of plasma miR-155-5p,miR-221-3p,miR-223-3p,miR-320a-3p,and miR-451a were determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction.The functional analysis was executed using the DIANA-miRPath v4.0.RESULTS Preoperatively,NEC newborns had significantly lower plasma levels of miR-155(2.70-fold,P=0.020),miR-223(2.42-fold,P=0.030),and miR-320a(3.62-fold,P=0.006)than newborns without NEC.Postoperatively,miR-451a levels differed significantly between the newborn groups,showing a 4.70-fold decrease(P=0.014)in expression when clinical NEC symptoms appeared.According to receiver operating characteristic analysis,miR-320a was found to be the most effective predictive biomarker for NEC[area under the curve(AUC)=0.835,63%sensitivity,100%specificity],while miR-451a was identified as a NEC biomarker(AUC=0.835,85.7%sensitivity,76.9%specificity).Preoperatively,miR-155-5p,miR-223-3p,and miR-320a-3p were differentially expressed and targeted the forkhead box O and Hippo pathways(P<0.01).CONCLUSION Our study demonstrates,for the first time,that plasma miR-320a-3p levels can be used as a preclinical biomarker for NEC in term newborns with CHD.
