In the process of construction project development, determining a reasonable project cost and doing a good job in the pre-settlement of construction projects are the top priorities. However, in the process of the rapid development of the construction industry at this stage, driven by economic interests, some construction enterprises will adopt the methods of multi-project quantity calculation and high fixed unit price to increase the project cost as much as possible, so as to obtain more economic benefits. Raising the project cost in this way will not only cause a waste of funds, but also create a huge potential safety hazard for the construction project. Therefore, it is very important to strengthen the pre-settlement cost analysis of construction and installation projects.展开更多

文摘With the acceleration of the modernization of the construction industry, more and more attention has been paid to the cost of construction projects. In the process of construction project development, determining a reasonable project cost and doing a good job in the pre-settlement of construction projects are the top priorities. However, in the process of the rapid development of the construction industry at this stage, driven by economic interests, some construction enterprises will adopt the methods of multi-project quantity calculation and high fixed unit price to increase the project cost as much as possible, so as to obtain more economic benefits. Raising the project cost in this way will not only cause a waste of funds, but also create a huge potential safety hazard for the construction project. Therefore, it is very important to strengthen the pre-settlement cost analysis of construction and installation projects.

文摘Background:Isotonic crystalloids are recommended as the first choice for fluid therapy in acute pan-creatitis(AP),with normal saline(NS)and lactate Ringer’s(LR)used most often.Evidence based recom-mendations on the type of fluid are conflicting and generally come from small single-center randomized controlled trials(RCTs).We therefore conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the effect of balanced solutions(BS)versus NS on patient-centered clinical outcomes in AP.Methods:From four databases searched up to October 2024,we included only RCTs of adult patients with AP that compared the use of BS(including LR,acetate Ringer’s,etc.)with NS.The primary out-come was the disease advances from AP to moderately severe and severe AP(MSAP/SAP).Trial sequential analyses(TSA)were conducted to control for type-I and type-II errors and Grading of Recommendations Assessment,Development,and Evaluation(GRADE)was used to assess the quality of evidence.Results:Six RCTs were identified and included,involving 260 patients treated with BS and 298 patients with NS.Patients who received the BS had less MSAP/SAP[odds ratio(OR)=0.50,95%confidence in-terval(CI):0.29 to 0.85,P=0.01,I^(2)=0%;5 studies,299 patients],reduced the need of ICU admission(OR=0.60,95%CI:0.39 to 0.93,P=0.02,I^(2)=0%;5 studies,507 patients)and shorter length of hospital stay[mean difference(MD)=-0.88,95%CI:-1.48 to-0.28,P=0.004,I^(2)=0%;6 studies,558 patients;confirmed by TSA with high certainty]compared with those who received NS.The evidence for most of the clinical outcomes was rated as moderate to low due to the risk of bias,imprecision and inconsistency.Conclusions:BS,compared with NS,was associated with improved clinical outcomes in patients with AP.However,given the moderate to low quality of evidence for most of the outcomes assessed,further trials are warranted.

文摘App reviews are crucial in influencing user decisions and providing essential feedback for developers to improve their products.Automating the analysis of these reviews is vital for efficient review management.While traditional machine learning(ML)models rely on basic word-based feature extraction,deep learning(DL)methods,enhanced with advanced word embeddings,have shown superior performance.This research introduces a novel aspectbased sentiment analysis(ABSA)framework to classify app reviews based on key non-functional requirements,focusing on usability factors:effectiveness,efficiency,and satisfaction.We propose a hybrid DL model,combining BERT(Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers)with BiLSTM(Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory)and CNN(Convolutional Neural Networks)layers,to enhance classification accuracy.Comparative analysis against state-of-the-art models demonstrates that our BERT-BiLSTM-CNN model achieves exceptional performance,with precision,recall,F1-score,and accuracy of 96%,87%,91%,and 94%,respectively.Thesignificant contributions of this work include a refined ABSA-based relabeling framework,the development of a highperformance classifier,and the comprehensive relabeling of the Instagram App Reviews dataset.These advancements provide valuable insights for software developers to enhance usability and drive user-centric application development.
