The study shows that primary silicified quartz is nonluminescent but quartz in host rocks and secondary silicified quartz are luminescent by the action of cathode rays. Correspondingly, silicon isotope compositions of host rocks, ores and hydro6thermal quartz veins are clearly distinguished. In strata from the Middle Triassic to the “Dachang” host bed, δ30Si of the host rocks ranges from 0.0% ?0.3%, while that of primary ore-forming silicified fluids from ?0.1% to ?0.4%; in the Upper Permian and Lower Carboniferous strata and Indosinian diabase host beds, δ30Si of the host rocks is from ?0.1% to ?0.2% and that of the primary silicified quartz veins from 0.3 % ?0.5 %. This pattern demonstrates the following geochemical mineralization process, primary ore-forming siliceous fluids migrated upwards quickly along the main passages of deep-seated faults from mantle to crust and entered secondary faults where gold deposits were eventually formed as a result of permeation and replacement of the siliceous ore-forming fluids into different ore-bearing strata. This gives important evidence for the fact that ore-forming fluids of this type of gold deposits were mainly derived from upper mantle differentiation and shows good prospects for deep gold deposits and geochemical background for large and superlarge gold deposits.展开更多

The deposit contains two types of ore bodies: layered Pb-Zn ore bodies in volcanic rock and vein-hosted Pb-Zn ore bodies controlled by fractures. The vein Pb-Zn ore bodies are strictly controlled by tectonic fracture zones trending in S-N direction,which comprise sulfide veins or sulfidebearing quartz veins distributed along faults or structural fissures. The ores mainly appear mesh-vein and vein structures,and also show solid-solution separation and metasomatic textures. The metal minerals are mainly sphalerite,galena,and pyrite,etc. Wall-rock alteration includes mainly sericitization,chloritization,silicification and carbonatization,etc. Microscope observations and Raman spectroscopy analyses indicate that the oreforming fluid of the vein Pb-Zn ore bodies was mainly magmatic water with low temperature,low salinity,and a shallow depth of metallogenesis( ~ 1.5 km). Sulfur and lead isotope analyses indicate that the sulfide source is mainly formation sulfur or biogenic sulfur,which is similar to the sulfur source of hydrothermal deposit( negative( δ^(34) S values),while the main Pb source was the upper crust with some mantle input. This article argues that the vein Pb-Zn ore body of the Xiaohongshilazi deposit is a low-to medium-temperature hydrothermal vein type related to the formation of a shallow magma chamber.展开更多

The iron-bearing rock system is a paleo-weathered crustal sedimentary(or accumulating) stratum between the top of the Middle-Late Permian Emeishan basalt formation and the Late Permian Xuanwei formation. Iron ore is hosted in the Lower-Middle part of the rock system. In terms of the genesis of mineral deposit, this type of deposit should be a basalt paleo-weathering crustal redeposit type, very different from marine sedimentary iron deposits or continental weathering crust iron deposits. Based on field work and the analytical results of XRD Powder Diffraction, Electron Probe, Scanner Electron Microscope, etc., the geological setting of the ore-forming processes and the deposit features are illustrated in this paper.

It might be related to the geohistory and geotectonic background. However, this kind of ore deposit has an important economical significance in China. Its formation is due to the dis-tinctive geological conditions of china. Wendong Au-Pb-Quartz type ore deposit including Wenyu and Dongchuang in Xiaoqinling gold field is the most typical. It is a polygenetic and compound ore deposit, Jintongcha and other deposits lying to the west of it in Xiaoqinling area are Au-Pb-Quartz vein type ore deposits. Others of this area lying to the east of Jintongcha are Au-Quartz vein type. This phenomenon stems from the zonnal distribution of minernal de-posits and the different development of the two major minernalzation stages. The results ob-tained from the fluid inclusion research have supported this inference.展开更多

It is also a major cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), making early identification and intervention crucial. Insulin resistance (IR)is a key pathophysiological mechanism of T2DM and plays a central role in the progression of DKD. In recent years, a series of novel surrogate indicators of IR, such as the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI), triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-C), and metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR), have attracted widespread attention due to their simplicity and cost-effectiveness. This article reviews the research progress of novel surrogate indicators of insulin resistance (IR) in type 2 diabetic kidney disease (DKD), aiming to provide references for the early prevention and improved prognosis of DKD.展开更多

文摘There are few Au-Pb-Quartz vein type ore deposits in other countries except China. It might be related to the geohistory and geotectonic background. However, this kind of ore deposit has an important economical significance in China. Its formation is due to the dis-tinctive geological conditions of china. Wendong Au-Pb-Quartz type ore deposit including Wenyu and Dongchuang in Xiaoqinling gold field is the most typical. It is a polygenetic and compound ore deposit, Jintongcha and other deposits lying to the west of it in Xiaoqinling area are Au-Pb-Quartz vein type ore deposits. Others of this area lying to the east of Jintongcha are Au-Quartz vein type. This phenomenon stems from the zonnal distribution of minernal de-posits and the different development of the two major minernalzation stages. The results ob-tained from the fluid inclusion research have supported this inference.

文摘Soil organic carbon(SOC)dynamics significantly influence ecosystem carbon source-sink balance,particularly in agroecosystems.However,uncertainty remains regarding optimal land use types for maximizing farmland carbon storage across different soil types,and identifying effective land management practices for enhanced carbon accumulation is essential for reducing agricultural emissions and strengthening carbon sinks.This study examined SOC variations in eastern Yunnan’s subtropical highlands(2,132 sites),analyzing topsoil(0–20 cm)across five land uses(dryland,irrigated land,forestland,grassland and plantation)of five soil types(red,yellow,yellowbrown,brown,purple).The investigation explored relationships between SOC and edaphic factors(26 elements)to determine SOC influencing factors.The study area demonstrated a mean SOC content of 27.78 g kg^(–1),with distinct spatial heterogeneity characterized by lower values in the southwestern sector and higher concentrations in the northeastern region.Brown soils displayed the highest SOC content(P<0.05),followed by yellow-brown then red,yellow,and purple soils.Irrigation significantly enhanced SOC storage,particularly in brown soils where irrigated land contained 2.2-,2.4-,and 1.6-times higher SOC than forestland,grassland,and dryland,respectively.Similar irrigation benefits occurred in purple,yellow,and yellow-brown soils,indicating moisture limitation as the primary SOC constraint.Notably,SOC exhibited strong positive correlations with nitrogen,sulfur,and selenium.Nitrogen fertilization demonstrated dual benefits:enhancing SOC sequestration and promoting Se enrichment in crops,potentially supporting specialty agriculture.Although land use impacts on SOC varied across soil types(P>0.05),irrigation consistently emerged as the optimal management for carbon sink enhancement.These findings suggest that targeted water management could effectively reduce farmland carbon emissions in moisture-limited subtropical highlands.Strategic nitrogen application offers co-benefits for soil fertility and selenium biofortification,providing practical pathways for climate-smart agriculture in similar ecoregions.
文摘For the complex nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations,it is not easy to prove the Pogorelov type estimates.In this paper,we study a class of complex Hessian quotient type equations in convex cone Γ_(k),which is of mixed Hessian type.For the Γ_(k)-admissible solutions,we establish the corresponding Pogorelov estimates with 0≤l<k<n and Pogorelov type estimates with l+1<k=n and l≥0.These extend the previous related results on the real Hessian quotient type equations.
文摘Background:Diabetes mellitus(DM)is a chronic illness with potentially fatal and debilitating consequences.Problems with glycemic management are a major issue that adds an added strain to public health services.Objectives:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of poor glycemic control and its related variables among type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)patients in southern Jordan.Methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out in the Prince Hashem bin Abdullah II Hospital in Jordan's southernmost province.For the period April–July 2024,516 individuals with T2D were enrolled.A structured questionnaire that had been pre-prepared was used to collect data.As an index of glycemic control,a glycated hemoglobin(Hb A1c)7%cut-off point was adopted.Results:Poor glycemic control was prevalent in 81.0%of T2DM individuals.Inadequate glycemic control was significantly worse in non-married patients and those with 10 or more years of diabetes duration,insulin treatment,dyslipidemia,neuropathy,cardiovascular illness,and glomerular filtration rate(GFR=60 m L/min;[P<0.05]).Moreover,dyslipidemia and insulin administration increased the likelihood of poor glycemic control(odds ratio[OR]:2 and 5,respectively)(P<0.05).Conclusions:Inadequate glycemic control was common among the current study par ticipants.To prevent disease consequences and enhance the health of patients with diabetes,health care professionals should pay special attention to related risk factors such as dyslipidemia,neuropathy,cardiovascular disease(CVD),extended illness duration,and insulin usage.

文摘Soil fertility and forest structure influence tree carbon stocks.However,it remains unclear how tree mycorrhizal types affect these relationships.This study addressed the question of how aboveground and belowground tree carbon stocks in soils with different mycorrhizal types are affected by soil fertility and forest structure.Tree demographic data were used from a 21.12-ha study area collected over a ten-year period(2009-2019),covering 43species of woody plants and more than 50,000 individuals.Relationships between tree carbon stock,soil fertility and forest structure(stand density,diameter variation,species diversity and spatial distribution)were examined,as well as whether these relationships differed between arbuscular mycorrhiza and ectomycorrhizal mycorrhiza groups in a typical temperate conifer and broad-leaved mixed forest.We found that total tree carbon stock was positively impacted by variations in stand density and tree diameter but negatively influenced by soil fertility,tree species diversity and uniform angle index.Soil fertility promoted carbon stock of trees associated with arbuscular mycorrhiza(AM)but inhibited the carbon stock of trees with ectomycorrhizal mycorrhiza fungi(EcM).Carbon stock of AM trees was mainly influenced by soil fertility,while carbon stock of EcM trees was influenced by stand density.Our findings show that mycorrhizae types mediate the impact of stand structure and soil fertility on tree carbon stocks and provides new evidence on how forest tree carbon stocks may be enhanced based on the types of mycorrhizal associations.Tree species with different mycorrhizal types can be managed in different ways.
文摘Diabetic kidney disease (DKD)is one of the most common and severe microvascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). It is also a major cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), making early identification and intervention crucial. Insulin resistance (IR)is a key pathophysiological mechanism of T2DM and plays a central role in the progression of DKD. In recent years, a series of novel surrogate indicators of IR, such as the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI), triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-C), and metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR), have attracted widespread attention due to their simplicity and cost-effectiveness. This article reviews the research progress of novel surrogate indicators of insulin resistance (IR) in type 2 diabetic kidney disease (DKD), aiming to provide references for the early prevention and improved prognosis of DKD.

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The goal of this paper is to investigate the long-time dynamics of solutions to a Kirchhoff type suspension bridge equation with nonlinear damping and memory term.For this problem we establish the well-posedness and existence of uniform attractor under some suitable assumptions on the nonlinear term g(u),the nonlinear damping f(u_(t))and the external force h(x,t).Specifically,the asymptotic compactness of the semigroup is verified by the energy reconstruction method.
文摘Objective:This review aimed to evaluate existing evidence of educational interventions targeted at parents and caregivers of children with type 1 diabetes(T1D)to improve diabetes management outcomes.Methods:A general review was conducted with primary caregivers of children younger than 18 with T1D as the population of interest.Journal searches were performed using the CINAHL,EBSCO,Pub Med,Scopus,Science Direct,and Google Scholar,databases for publications between 2017 and 2024,with full text in English.Results:A total of 26 studies were included in the review.Nine of these studies focused on various educational interventions,both technology-based and non-technology-based.By contrast,17 studies examined the impact of these interventions on caregiver outcomes,such as treatment adherence and glycemic control in children with T1D.So,the following research questions guided this review:(1)What is the effectiveness of diabetes education interventions on glycemic control in children with T1D?(2)How do caregiver knowledge and self-efficacy affect diabetes management outcomes?Conclusions:Diabetes interventions highlight the vital role of empowering caregivers of children with T1D with knowledge,skills,and support to improve and enhance their adherence to treatment,knowledge,and self-efficacy that ultimately contribute to better glycemic control of children as reflected by their Hb A1c levels.This review highlights the importance of diabetes education interventions for caregivers of children with T1D.The evidence indicates that such interventions can improve caregiver knowledge,self-efficacy,and glycemic control in children.However,variability in outcomes suggests that fur ther research is needed to identify the most effective educational strategies.
