MDRPI, a peculiar subtype of pressure injuries (PI), result from the pression exerted by devices (or their fixation systems) applied for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. MDRPI represent a serious problem for patients and healthcare systems. Understanding potential risk factors is an important step in implementing effective interventions. Methods: In this study, we will perform a systematic review;if possible, also a meta-analysis will be performed. The review will follow the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) reporting guidelines for systematic reviews. A rigorous literature search will be conducted both in electronic databases (Medline/PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library) to identify studies published since 2000 and in gray literature for unpublished studies. Pairs of researchers will identify relevant evidence, extract data, and assess risk of bias independently in each eligible study. Factors associated with the occurrence of MDRPI are considered the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes are prevalence and incidence of MDRPI, length of hospital stay, infections, and death. The evidence will be synthesized using the GRADE methodology. Results: Results are not currently available as this is a protocol for a systematic review. Conclusions: This systematic review will identify evidence on risk factors for developing MDRPI. We are confident that the results of this review will help to improve clinical practice and guide future research.展开更多

文摘In the scenario of a steam generator tube rupture accident in a lead-cooled fast reactor,secondary circuit subcooled water under high pressure is injected into an ordinary-pressure primary vessel,where a molten lead-based alloy(typically pure lead or lead-bismuth eutectic(LBE))is used as the coolant.To clarify the pressure build-up characteristics under water-jet injection,this study conducted several experiments by injecting pressurized water into a molten LBE pool at Sun Yat-sen University.To obtain a further understanding,several new experimental parameters were adopted,including the melt temperature,water subcooling,injection pressure,injection duration,and nozzle diameter.Through detailed analyses,it was found that the pressure and temperature during the water-melt interaction exhibited a consistent variation trend with our previous water-droplet injection mode LBE experiment.Similarly,the existence of a steam explosion was confirmed,which typically results in a much stronger pressure build-up.For the non-explosion cases,increasing the injection pressure,melt-pool temperature,nozzle diameter,and water subcooling promoted pressure build-up in the melt pool.However,a limited enhancement effect was observed when increasing the injection duration,which may be owing to the continually rising pressure in the interaction vessel or the isolation effect of the generated steam cavity.Regardless of whether a steam explosion occurred,the calculated mechanical and kinetic energy conversion efficiencies of the melt were relatively small(not exceeding 4.1%and 0.7%,respectively).Moreover,the range of the conversion efficiency was similar to that of previous water-droplet experiments,although the upper limit of the jet mode was slightly lower.
文摘BACKGROUND Acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS)is a critical condition characterized by acute hypoxemia,non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema,and decreased lung compliance.The Berlin definition,updated in 2012,classifies ARDS severity based on the partial pressure of arterial oxygen/fractional inspired oxygen fraction ratio.Despite various treatment strategies,ARDS remains a significant public health concern with high mortality rates.AIM To evaluate the implications of driving pressure(DP)in ARDS management and its potential as a protective lung strategy.METHODS We conducted a systematic review using databases including EbscoHost,MEDLINE,CINAHL,PubMed,and Google Scholar.The search was limited to articles published between January 2015 and September 2024.Twenty-three peer-reviewed articles were selected based on inclusion criteria focusing on adult ARDS patients undergoing mechanical ventilation and DP strategies.The literature review was conducted and reported according to PRISMA 2020 guidelines.RESULTS DP,the difference between plateau pressure and positive end-expiratory pressure,is crucial in ARDS management.Studies indicate that lower DP levels are significantly associated with improved survival rates in ARDS patients.DP is a better predictor of mortality than tidal volume or positive end-expiratory pressure alone.Adjusting DP by optimizing lung compliance and minimizing overdistension and collapse can reduce ventilator-induced lung injury.CONCLUSION DP is a valuable parameter in ARDS management,offering a more precise measure of lung stress and strain than traditional metrics.Implementing DP as a threshold for safety can enhance protective ventilation strategies,po-tentially reducing mortality in ARDS patients.Further research is needed to refine DP measurement techniques and validate its clinical application in diverse patient populations.
文摘In order to address the current inability of screen printing to monitor printing pressure online,an online printing pressure monitoring system applied to screen printing machines was designed in this study.In this study,the consistency of printed electrodes was measured by using a confocal microscope and the pressure distribution detected by online pressure monitoring system was compared to investigate the relationship.The results demonstrated the relationship between printing pressure and the consistency of printed electrodes.As printing pressure increases,the ink layer at the corresponding position becomes thicker and that higher printing pressure enhances the consistency of the printed electrodes.The experiment confirms the feasibility of the online pressure monitoring system,which aids in predicting and controlling the consistency of printed electrodes,thereby improving their performance.
文摘Objective: To identify the principal factors associated with the occurrence and development of medical device-related pressure injuries (MDRPI) in adults admitted to hospitals. MDRPI, a peculiar subtype of pressure injuries (PI), result from the pression exerted by devices (or their fixation systems) applied for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. MDRPI represent a serious problem for patients and healthcare systems. Understanding potential risk factors is an important step in implementing effective interventions. Methods: In this study, we will perform a systematic review;if possible, also a meta-analysis will be performed. The review will follow the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) reporting guidelines for systematic reviews. A rigorous literature search will be conducted both in electronic databases (Medline/PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library) to identify studies published since 2000 and in gray literature for unpublished studies. Pairs of researchers will identify relevant evidence, extract data, and assess risk of bias independently in each eligible study. Factors associated with the occurrence of MDRPI are considered the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes are prevalence and incidence of MDRPI, length of hospital stay, infections, and death. The evidence will be synthesized using the GRADE methodology. Results: Results are not currently available as this is a protocol for a systematic review. Conclusions: This systematic review will identify evidence on risk factors for developing MDRPI. We are confident that the results of this review will help to improve clinical practice and guide future research.

文摘Small modular reactors have received widespread attention owing to their inherent safety,low investment,and flexibility.Small pressurized water reactors(SPWRs)have become important candidates for SMRs owing to their high technological maturity.Since the Fukushima accident,research on accident-tolerant fuels(ATFs),which are more resistant to serious accidents than conventional fuels,has gradually increased.This study analyzes the neutronics and thermal hydraulics of an SPWR(ACPR50S)for different ATFs,BeO+UO_(2)−SiC,BeO+UO_(2)−FeCrAl,U_(3)Si_(2)−SiC,and U_(3)Si_(2)−FeCrAl,based on a PWR fuel management code,the Bamboo-C deterministic code.In the steady state,the burnup calculations,reactivity coefficients,power and temperature distributions,and control rod reactivity worth were studied.The transients of the control rod ejection accident for the two control rods with the maximum and minimum reactivity worth were analyzed.The results showed that 5%B-10 enrichment in the wet annular burnable absorbers assembly can effectively reduce the initial reactivity and end-of-life reactivity penalty.The BeO+UO2−SiC core exhibited superior neutronic characteristics in terms of burnup and negative temperature reactivity compared with the other three cases owing to the strong moderation ability of BeO+UO_(2)and low neutron absorption of SiC.However,the U_(3)Si_(2)core had a marginally better power-flattening effect than BeO+UO_(2),and the differential worth of each control rod group was similar between different ATFs.During the transient of a control rod ejection,the changes in the fuel temperature,coolant temperature,and coolant density were similar.The maximum difference was less than 10℃ for the fuel temperature and 2℃ for the coolant temperature.

文摘The effect of polyacrylic acid(PAA)on the corrosion behavior of Alloy 690 in simulated pressurized water reactor secondary water was investigated.The duplex oxide film structure,consisting of a Ni-rich outer layer and a Cr-rich inner layer,was maintained regardless of PAA presence.PAA inhibited the growth of outer Ni-rich particles while promoting Cr enrichment in the inner layer and inducing its amorphization,both enhancing oxidation resistance.However,excess PAA(≥500 ppb)suppressed protective oxide formation during initial oxidation,leading to oxygen penetration into the matrix.A PAA concentration of around 250 ppb is considered optimal for steam generators,as it provides the benefits of PAA without adverse effects on the alloy.

文摘As a renewable energy source,the thermal conversion of poultry manure,is a promising waste treatment solution that can generate circular economic outputs such as energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.Currently,pressurized gasification of poultry manure is still a novel research field,especially when combined with a novel technological route of oxy-fuel gasification.Oxy-fuel gasification is a newly proposed and promising gasification technology for power generation that facilitates future carbon capture and storage.In this work,based on a commercially operated industrial-scale chicken manure gasification power plant in Singapore,we presented an interesting first exploration of the coupled pressurization technology for oxy-fuel gasification of poultry manure using CFD numerical simulation,analyzed the effects of pressure and oxygen enrichment concentration as well as the coupling mechanism between them,and discussed the conversion and emission of nitrogen-and sulfur-containing pollutants.The results indicate that under oxy-fuel gasification condition(Oxy-30,i.e.,30%O_(2)/70%CO_(2)),as the pressure increases from 0.1 to 0.5 MPa,the CO concentration in the syngas increases slightly,the H_(2)concentration increases to approximately 25%,and the CH4 concentration(less than 1%)decreases,resulting in an increase in the calorific value of syngas from 5.2 to 5.6 MJ·m^(-3).Compared to atmospheric pressure conditions,a relatively higher oxygen-enriched concentration interval(Oxy-40 to Oxy-50)under pressurized conditions is advantageous for autothermal gasification.Pressurization increases NO precursors production and also promotes homogeneous and heterogeneous reduction of NO,and provides favorable conditions for self-desulfurization.This work offers reference for the realization of a highly efficient and low-energy-consumption thermochemical treatment of livestock manure coupled with negative carbon emission technology.

文摘The seismic intensity is generally high in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau region of China.The seismic performance of the new prefabricated modular pressurized buildings used to solve the plateau response is insufficient.To solve this problem,the small friction pendulum bearing(FPB)isolation design is proposed for modular pressurized buildings.Firstly,a simplified model of cross-truss support for the pressurized module is proposed to simplify the modeling and calculation of the pressurized buildings.The reasonability of the simplified model is verified by comparing the refined finite element model.Subsequently,according to the FPB design process for modular pressurized buildings,a small FPB for isolation is provided for a two-story modular pressurized building under 8-degree fortification earthquakes.Lastly,the seismic effectiveness and constructional feasibility of the isolation structure are verified compared with the non-isolated structure using dynamic time-history analysis.The study results show that the size of FPBs for modular pressurized buildings should consider both displacement and dimension requirements to weigh seismic isolation performance and installation feasibility,respectively.When adopting FPBs,the response of the structure is significantly reduced,and the seismic isolation effect is obvious.The proposed construction process can improve the seismic resilience of the prefabricated modular pressurized buildings by replacing post-earthquake damaged components quickly.It provides ideas for the seismic isolation design of the prefabricated modular pressurized buildings in high seismic intensity areas.

文摘Coastal tourism holds substantial development potential.However,coastal ecosystems are affected by tourism development,which limits the supply of ecosystem services(ES).This study aims to conduct a systematic literature review on the impacts of tourism on coastal and marine ES using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-alpha Methods.We initially identified 640 studies by searching titles,abstracts,and keywords.After screening,only 50 studies met the criteria for inclusion in the review.The results showed a significant increase in publications between 2011 and 2023.Most studies were conducted in Europe,Asia,and North and Central America.The most used ES classifications were MEA and CICES.Most studies concentrated on the ES supply dimension(43 studies;86%).Cultural ES(47 studies;94%)were researched more than provisioning(28 studies;56%)and regulating&maintenance(29 studies;58%)sections.Regarding cultural ES,most studies were focused on“Physical and experiential interactions with the natural environment”(34 studies;68%)and on provisioning ES on“Wild animals(terrestrial and aquatic)for nutrition,materials or energy”(18 studies;36%).Quantitative and mixed methods were the most used in the reviewed studies.Most studies identified pressures from“Tourism,urbanisation,and population increase”(27 studies;54%)and focused on“Integrative/common management strategies”(20 studies;40%).Only a few of the studies’results have been validated by external data(10 studies;20%).This study provides an overview of the most assessed marine and coastal ES,where studies are needed with more comprehensive geographic coverage.
文摘This research aims to understand the causes of fraud through the approach of the Fraud Triangle Theory,which includes three main factors:pressure,opportunity,rationalization.By using the Systematic Literature Review method from various relevant international journals,it analyzed systematically to identify patterns,trends,and theoretical contributions to efforts in detecting and preventing fraud.The results of this study show that the three factors in the Fraud Triangle Theory significantly contribute to the occurrence of fraud.Opportunity as the most dominant factor is caused by weak internal control systems and lack of oversight.In addition,economic pressure,and a permissive organizational environment,as well as the rationalization processes by individuals,also increase the tendency for a person to commit fraud.These findings emphasize the need for a comprehensive approach in fraud prevention strategies,through ethical values,the establishment of an organizational culture with integrity,and the implementation of more effective internal control and oversight.

文摘Pressurized oxy-fuel combustion is a next-generation and low-cost carbon capture technology with industrial application potential.This work presents an innovative research exploration-coupling coal pressurized fluidized bed oxy-fuel combustion technology with energy utilization of poultry manure as a renewable and carbon-neutral fuel,in order to capture CO_(2)and solve the problem of poultry manure treatment simultaneously.In this study,a stable co-combustion of coal and chicken manure in a laboratory-scale pressurized fluidized bed under typical oxy-fuel condition(30%O_(2)/70%CO_(2),i.e.,Oxy-30)is achieved.The key parameters including the combustion pressure(0.1-0.5 MPa)and chicken-manure proportion(0%to 100%)and their impacts on fundamental combustion efficiency,carbon conversion,nitrogen and sulfur pollutant emissions,and residue ash characteristics have been investigated.The result show that pressurization favors an increase in the CO_(2)enrichment concentration and fluidized bed combustion efficiency.During co-combustion under 0.1 and 0.3 MPa,the CO_(2)concentration in the flue gas is the highest when the chicken manure blending ratio(M_(pm))is 25%.Although the NO emissions fluctuate and even increase as Mpm increases,the co-combustion of coal and chicken manure exhibits a synergistic effect in reducing NO conversion rate(XNO).The effect of pressurization on reducing NO emission is significant,XNO at M_(pm)=25%decreasing from 15%to 5%as the pressure(P)increases from 0.1 to 0.5 MPa.As P increases from 0.1 to 0.5 MPa and Mpm increases from 0%to 50%,the SO_(2) emissions and conversion rates decrease.The self-desulfurization process plays an important role in the reduction of SO_(2) emissions during pressurized oxy-fuel co-combustion.The aim of this work is to advance the development and application of pressurized fluidized bed oxy-fuel co-combustion technology and promote a circular bioeconomy and carbon-free waste management for biomass derived from livestock manure.

文摘The high-pressure phase diagram of the Nb-Ti binary system at 0 K is explored by systematic crystal structure prediction.The results highlight a novel niobium-rich bcc phase,Nb_(7)Ti,which is the only dynamically stable ordered Nb-Ti compound under ambient pressure.Extensive first-principles calculations have provided insights into the electronic structure,bonding and superconducting properties of Nb_(7)Ti.The superconducting transition temperature(T_(c))for Nb_(7)Ti at ambient pressure is estimated within the framework of BCS theory to be about 17.5 K,which is significantly higher—nearly double—that of the widely utilized NbTi alloy.Furthermore,the results unveil that the high T_(c) is mainly attributed to the unique ordered lattice along with the strong electron-phonon coupling driven by interatomic interactions at mid-frequency and phonon softening induced by low-frequency Fermi surface nesting.Valuable insights are provided for the subsequent synthesis of application-oriented superconductors at low pressure.

文摘Objective:To systematically evaluate the effectiveness of mobile health(mHealth)interventions on self-management and blood pressure(BP)control in patients with hypertension and to provide recommendations for the clinic and future research.Methods:Databases including Embase,Cochrane Library,CINAHL,CNKI,SinoMed,Wanfang,and Weipu were searched to collect systematic reviews(SRs)and meta-analyses on mHealth interventions for hypertension management.Two researchers independently screened the articles and extracted data,and the Assessment of Multiple Systematic Reviews(AMSTAR 2)was used to evaluate the methodological quality of the included reviews.Results:A total of 11 SRs were included:1 review was rated as high quality,3 as low quality,and 7 as critically low quality.The mobile phone was the most common intervention type,followed by the internet.Seven reviews performed meta-analyses and showed that mHealth was associated with a significant reduction in systolic blood pressure(SBP),from 2.28 mmHg(95%CI-3.90 to-0.66;I^(2)=40%)to 14.77 mmHg(95%CI 11.76-17.77;I^(2)=89.7%),and diastolic blood pressure(DBP),from 1.50 mmHg(95%CI-2.20 to-0.08;I^(2)=62%)to 8.17 mmHg(95%CI 5.67-10.67;I^(2)=86%).Self-management behaviors included medication adherence(MA),diet,smoking,alcohol drinking,physical activity,and BP monitoring.There were inconsistent results on the effectiveness of mHealth interventions.Conclusions:mHealth interventions can improve BP control,MA,diet,and smoking in patients with hypertension,but the evidence for the efficacy of mHealth on physical activity and alcohol drinking improvement is limited.The methodological quality of existing SRs on the management of BP in patients with hypertension was relatively low,and more well-designed SRs or meta-analyses were needed to provide more evidence.mHealth interventions are useful for improving BP control of patients with hypertension.

文摘To date,many previous studies have been proposed for driver authentication;however,these solutions have many shortcomings and are still far from practical for real-world applications.In this paper,we tackle the shortcomings of the existing solutions and reach toward proposing a lightweight and practical authentication system,dubbed DriveMe,for identifying drivers on cars.Our novelty aspects are 1⃝Lightweight scheme that depends only on a single sensor data(i.e.,pressure readings)attached to the driver’s seat and belt.2⃝Practical evaluation in which one-class authentication models are trained from only the owner users and tested using data collected from both owners and attackers.3⃝Rapid Authentication to quickly identify drivers’identities using a few pressure samples collected within short durations(1,2,3,5,or 10 s).4⃝Realistic experiments where the sensory data is collected from real experiments rather than computer simulation tools.We conducted real experiments and collected about 13,200 samples and 22,800 samples of belt-only and seat-only datasets from all 12 users under different settings.To evaluate system effectiveness,we implemented extensive evaluation scenarios using four one-class detectors One-Class Support Vector Machine(OCSVM),Local Outlier Factor(LOF),Isolation Forest(IF),and Elliptic Envelope(EE),three dataset types(belt-only,seat-only,and fusion),and four different dataset sizes.Our average experimental results show that the system can authenticate the driver with an F1 score of 93.1%for seat-based data using OCSVM classifier,an F1 score of 98.53%for fusion-based data using LOF classifier,an F1 score of 91.65%for fusion-based data using IF classifier,and an F1 score of 95.79%for fusion-based data using EE classifier.

文摘The current research of master cylinder pressure estimation mainly relies on hydraulic characteristic or vehicle dynamics.But they are not independently applicable to any environment and have their own scope of application.In addition,about the master cylinder pressure control,there are few studies that can simultaneously balance pressure building accuracy,speed,and prevent pressure overshoot and jitter.In this paper,an adaptative fusion method based on electro-hydraulic characteristic and vehicle mode is proposed to estimate the master cylinder pressure.The fusion strategy is mainly based on the prediction performance of two algorithms under different vehicle speeds,pressures,and ABS states.Apart from this,this article also includes real-time prediction of the friction model based on RLS to improve the accuracy of the electro-hydraulic mode.In order to simultaneously balance pressure control accuracy,response speed,and prevent overshoot and jitter,this article proposes an adaptative LQR controller for MC pressure control which uses fuzzy-logic controller to adjust the weights of LQR controller based on target pressure and difference compared with actual pressure.Through mode-in-loop and hardware-in-loop tests in ramp,step and sinusoidal response,the whole estimation and control system is verified based on real hydraulic system and the performance is satisfactory under these scenes.This research proposes an adaptative pressure estimation and control architecture for integrated electro-hydraulic brake system which could eliminate pressure sensors in typical scenarios and ensure the comprehensive performance of pressure control.

文摘Quasi-one-dimensional systems provide a unique platform for the exploration of novel quantum states due to their enhanced electronic correlations,strong anisotropy,and dimensional confinement.Among various external tuning methods,physical pressure has been experimentally demonstrated to be an exceptionally potent and precise method for modulating both the structural and electronic properties of quasi-one-dimensional systems.In this review,we focus on the application of pressure to construct pressure-temperature phase diagrams of quasi-one-dimensional materials and explore the intricate relationships among quantum phenomena between superconductivity and other electronic states,such as charge density wave,topological quantum states,and antiferromagnetism.By analyzing representative examples across distinct material families,we demonstrate how pressure can be used not only to induce superconductivity but also to reveal underlying quantum critical points and drive topological phase transitions.We emphasize the significant potential of pressure as a crucial tuning parameter for revealing novel quantum phenomena and driving the progress in advanced low-dimensional quantum materials.

文摘This study investigated the operation features of a dropshaft-tunnel system under varying downstream water levels through a large-scale physical model.In the experiments,the air pressure distribution in the system was measured,and the flow pattern was recorded by cameras.The results revealed that the air pressure in the drop-shaft increased with increasing water flow rate under free outflow conditions but changed little when the outflow was submerged,even when the flow rate further increased.Additionally,there was a wavy flow in the tunnel un-der free outflow conditions,whereas plug flow with air pockets occurred under submerged outflow conditions.The downstream water level was found to affect the system through changing the linkage between the drop-shaft and tunnel and the resistance to air release downstream.The findings of this study contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the operation of deep tunnel systems.
