Second, the equilibrium holographic network phase diagrams of AuCu3-type sublattice system may be used to describe systematic correlativity of the composition?temperature-dependent alloy gene arranging structures and complete thermodynamic properties, and to be a standard for studying experimental subequilibrium order-disorder transition.

First, the fourth barrier to hinder the progress of metal materials science is that today’s researchers do not understand that the Gibbs energy function of an alloy phase should be derived from Gibbs energy partition function constructed of alloy gene sequence and their Gibbs energy sequence. Second, the six rules for establishing alloy gene Gibbs energy partition function have been discovered, and it has been specially proved that the probabilities of structure units occupied at the Gibbs energy levels in the degeneracy factor for calculating configuration entropy should be degenerated as ones of component atoms occupied at the lattice points. Third, the main characteristics unexpected by today’s researchers are as follows. There exists a single-phase boundary curve without two-phase region coexisting by the ordered and disordered phases. The composition and temperature of the top point on the phase-boundary curve are far away from those of the critical point of the Au3Cu compound; At 0 K, the composition of the lowest point on the composition-dependent Gibbs energy curve is notably deviated from that of the Au3Cu compounds. The theoretical limit composition range of long range ordered Au3Cu-type alloys is determined by the first jumping order degree.展开更多

First, the alloy gene sequences are the central characteristic atom sequences in the basic coordination cluster sequences. Second, the transmission mode of the information about structures and properties of the alloy genes is described by the alloy gene Gibbs energy partition function. The most valuable method in the system sciences is “the whole obtained from a few parts”. We have established the alloy gene database and holographic alloy positioning system of the Au-Cu system, as well as alloy gene Gibbs energy partition function and equilibrium holographic network phase diagrams of the AuCu-type sublattice system. It means that a standard way for researchers to share predictive algorithms and computational methods may be produced during designing advanced alloys.展开更多

Based on the theoretical linear solvation energy relationship (TLSER) model, the obtained parameters were taken as theoretical descriptors to establish the novel QSPR model for predicting n-octanol/water partition coefficients (lgKow) of OPs. The new model achieved in this work contains three variables, i.e., molecular volume (Vm), dipole moment of the molecules (μ) and enthalpy (H^0). For this model, R^2 = 0.9167 and SD = 0.31 at large t values. In addition, the variation inflation factors (VIF) of variables are all close to 1.0, suggesting high accuracy of the predicting model. And the results of cross-validation test (q^2 = 0.8993) and method validation also showed the model of this study exhibited optimum stability and better predictive power than that from semi-empirical method. The model achieved can be used to predict IgKow of congeneric compounds.展开更多

Based on the theoretical linear solvation energy relationship (TLSER) model, the obtained structural parameters were taken as theoretical descriptors to establish the novel quantitative structureproperty relationship (QSPR) model for predicting n-octanol/water partition coefficients (lgKow) of PCDFs. The new model of lgKow achieved in this work contains three variables: energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital (EHOMO), the most negative atomic partial charge (q^-) and average molecular polarizability (a), of which R^2= 0.9011 and SD = 0,17 with larger t values. In addition, the variation inflation factors (VIF) of variables in the present model are all less than 5.5, suggesting high accuracy of the lgKow model. And the results of cross-validation test (q^2 = 0.8688) and method validation also show this model exhibits optimum stability and better predictive power than semi-empirical method. At the same time, it is found that the aqueous solubility (-lgSw) has high relative correlation with constant volume molar heat capacity (Cv^0), of which R^2 = 0.9777 and SD = 0.22. Moreover, lgKow and -lgSw values of all PCDF congeners were predicted respectively.展开更多

In this paper a new implicit surface method is proposed to reconstruct the human body surface from the points based on the combination of radial basis functions (RBFs) and adaptive partition of unity (PoU). The whole 3D domain of the scanned human body is firstly subdivided into a set of overlapping subdomalns based on the improved octrees. The smooth local surfaces are then computed in the subdomalns based on RBFs. And finally the global human body surface is reconstructed by blending the local surfaces with the adaptive PoU functions. This method is robust for the surface reconstruction of the scanned human body even with large or non-uniform point cloud which has a sharp density variation.展开更多

In the setting of accelerated proliferation in volume at the second and fifth day after ALPPS, the characteristics of newborn hepatocytes, as well as specific markers of progenitor hepatic cell, were identified. Afterwards, the detection of liver function followed by cluster analysis of functional gene expression were performed to evaluate the maturity.RESULTS Compared with PHx and sham groups, the proliferation of f LR was significantly higher in ALPPS group(P = 0.023 and 0.001 at second day, P = 0.034 and P < 0.001 at fifth day after stage I). Meanwhile, the increased expression of proliferative markers including Ki-67, proliferating cell nuclear antigen, and cyclin D1 verified the accelerated liver regeneration derived from ALPPS procedure. However, ALPPS-induced Sox9 positive hepatocytes significantly increased beyond the portal triad, which indicated the progenitor hepatic cell was potentially involved. And the characteristics of ALPPSinduced hepatocytes indicated the lower expression of hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 and anti-tryptase in early proliferative stage. Both suggested the immaturity of ALPPS-derived liver regeneration. Additionally, the detection of liver function and functional genes expression confirmed the immaturity of renascent hepatocytes derived in early stage of ALPPS-derived liver regeneration.CONCLUSION Our study revealed the immaturity of ALPPS-derived proliferation in early regenerative response, which indicated that the volumetric assessment overestimated the functional proliferation. This could be convincing evidence that the stage Ⅱ of ALPPS should be performed prudently in patients with marginally adequate f LR, as the ALPPS-derived proliferation in volume lags behind the functional regeneration.展开更多

Afterwards, the detection of liver function followed by cluster analysis of functional gene expression were performed to evaluate the maturity.RESULTS Compared with PHx and sham groups, the proliferation of f LR was significantly higher in ALPPS group(P = 0.023 and 0.001 at second day, P = 0.034 and P < 0.001 at fifth day after stage I). Meanwhile, the increased expression of proliferative markers including Ki-67, proliferating cell nuclear antigen, and cyclin D1 verified the accelerated liver regeneration derived from ALPPS procedure. However, ALPPS-induced Sox9 positive hepatocytes significantly increased beyond the portal triad, which indicated the progenitor hepatic cell was potentially involved. And the characteristics of ALPPSinduced hepatocytes indicated the lower expression of hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 and anti-tryptase in early proliferative stage. Both suggested the immaturity of ALPPS-derived liver regeneration. Additionally, the detection of liver function and functional genes expression confirmed the immaturity of renascent hepatocytes derived in early stage of ALPPS-derived liver regeneration.CONCLUSION Our study revealed the immaturity of ALPPS-derived proliferation in early regenerative response, which indicated that the volumetric assessment overestimated the functional proliferation. This could be convincing evidence that the stage Ⅱ of ALPPS should be performed prudently in patients with marginally adequate f LR, as the ALPPS-derived proliferation in volume lags behind the functional regeneration.
