However, affected by drug dosage and individual differences in the course of medication, patients will have different degrees of adverse reactions, which will cause damage to the patient’s body once they occur. This paper retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of patients with severe allergic reactions such as fecal incontinence and numbness of hands and feet caused by the use of paclitaxel liposome during postoperative chemotherapy in a case of ovarian cancer admitted to our hospital. The causes and corresponding treatment measures were analyzed, in order to provide the reference for medical staff to take effective countermeasures in advance in the future.展开更多

Through a combination of SRIM, GEANT4, and TCAD simulations, we explore the role of secondary ions generated by nuclear reactions between high-energy O ions and Si C materials. These secondary ions, with significantly higher linear energy transfer(LET) values, contribute to electron–hole pair generation, leading to SEB. Our results show that the energy deposition and penetration depth of these secondary ions, especially those with high LET, are sufficient to induce catastrophic SEB in Si C MOSFETs. The study also highlights the critical influence of reverse bias voltage on SEB occurrence and provides insights into the failure mechanisms induced by nuclear reactions with high-energy O ions. This work offers valuable understanding for improving the radiation resistance of Si C-based power devices used in space and high-radiation environments,contributing to the design of more reliable electronics for future space missions.展开更多

文摘Driving of the nuclear fusion reaction p+^(11)B3α+8.7 MeV under laboratory conditions by interaction between high-power laser pulses and matter has become a popular field of research,owing to its numerous potential applications:as an alternative to deuterium-tritium for fusion energy production,astrophysics studies,and alpha-particle generation for medical treatment.One possible scheme for laser-driven p-^(11)B reactions is to direct a beam of laser-accelerated protons onto a boron(B)sample(the so-called“pitcher-catcher”scheme).This technique has been successfully implemented on large high-energy lasers,yielding hundreds of joules per shot at low repetition.We present here a complementary approach,exploiting the high repetition rate of the VEGA III petawatt laser at CLPU(Spain),aiming at accumulating results from many interactions at much lower energy,to provide better control of the parameters and the statistics of the measurements.Despite a moderate energy per pulse,our experiment allowed exploration of the laser-driven fusion process with tens(up to hundreds)of laser shots.The experiment provided a clear signature of the reactions involved and of the fusion products,accumulated over many shots,leading to an improved optimization of the diagnostics for experimental campaigns of this type.In this paper,we discuss the effectiveness of laser-driven p-11B fusion in the pitcher-catcher scheme,at a high repetition rate,addressing the challenges of this experimental scheme and highlighting its critical aspects.Our proposed methodology allows evaluation of the performance of this scheme for laser-driven alpha particle production and can be adapted to high-repetition-rate laser facilities with higher energy and intensity.
文摘Laser therapy is a widely accepted method for tattoo removal,fragmenting tattoo pigments for eventual clearance by the immune system.However,tattoos presenting with signs of allergic reactions—such as erythema,swelling,pruritus,or localized dermatitis—pose unique challenges that contraindicate the use of laser treatments.This review explores clinical and immunological reasons why laser therapy should be avoided in tattoos manifesting allergic reactions,focusing on the exacerbation of symptoms,potential systemic hypersensitivity,and increased risk of severe adverse effects.Tattoo inks,particularly those containing red pigments,are known to induce delayed hypersensitivity reactions,driven by the body’s immune response to the injected foreign substances.Laser-induced breakdown of tattoo pigments can trigger an amplified allergic response due to the rapid release of pigment particles,which may further stimulate the immune system.Additionally,photomechanical fragmentation of tattoo inks during laser treatment increases the bioavailability of allergenic compounds,heightening the risk of severe inflammatory reactions and systemic dissemination of these allergens.Histological evidence suggests allergic reactions to tattoo inks are often granulomatous in nature,and the inflammatory environment created by laser therapy can exacerbate this granulomatous process,resulting in hypertrophic scarring or keloid formation.Moreover,patients with underlying allergic sensitivities to tattoo pigments are at an elevated risk of systemic complications,including generalized urticaria or angioedema,upon laser treatment.Current evidences suggests tattoos of allergic reactions should be not undergone laser therapy,emphasizing the need for alternative management strategies,such as topical application of corticosteroids or excision in severe cases.Clinicians must conduct a thorough pre-treatment assessment,including the patch testing,to identify potential allergenic inks and avoid laser-based interventions on reactive tattoos to prevent complications and safeguard patient's safety.

文摘Geochemical reactions play a vital role in determining the efficiency of carbon capture,utilization,and storage combined with enhanced oil recovery(CCUS-EOR),particularly through their influence on reservoir properties.To deepen the understanding of these mechanisms,this review investigates the interactions among injected CO_(2),formation fluids,and rock minerals and evaluates their implications for CCUS-EOR performance.The main results are summarized as follows.First,temperature,pressure,pH,and fluid composition are identified as key factors influencing mineral dissolution and precipitation,which in turn affect porosity,permeability,and CO_(2) storage.Second,carbonate minerals,such as calcite and dolomite,show high reactivity under lower temperature conditions,enhancing dissolution and permeability,while silicate minerals,including illite,kaolinite,quartz,and K-feldspar,are comparatively inert.Third,the formation of carbonic acid during CO_(2) injection promotes dissolution,whereas secondary precipitation,especially of clay minerals,can reduce pore connectivity and limit flow paths.Fourth,mineral transformation and salt precipitation can further modify reservoir characteristics,influencing both oil recovery and long-term CO_(2) trapping.Fifth,advanced experimental tools,such as Computed Tomography(CT)and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance(NMR)imaging,combined with geochemical modeling and reservoir simulation,are essential to predict petrophysical changes across scales.This review provides a theoretical foundation for integrating geochemical processes into CCUS-EOR design,offering technical support for field application and guiding sustainable CO_(2) management in oil reservoirs.

文摘Accurate prediction of drug-induced adverse drug reactions(ADRs)is crucial for drug safety evaluation,as it directly impacts public health and safety.While various models have shown promising results in predicting ADRs,their accuracy still needs improvement.Additionally,many existing models often lack interpretability when linking molecular structures to specific ADRs and frequently rely on manually selected molecular fingerprints,which can introduce bias.To address these challenges,we propose ToxBERT,an efficient transformer encoder model that leverages attention and masking mechanisms for simplified molecular input line entry system(SMILES)representations.Our results demonstrate that ToxBERT achieved area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUROC)scores of 0.839,0.759,and 0.664 for predicting drug-induced QT prolongation(DIQT),rhabdomyolysis,and liver injury,respectively,outperforming previous studies.Furthermore,ToxBERT can identify drug substructures that are closely associated with specific ADRs.These findings indicate that ToxBERT is not only a valuable tool for understanding the mechanisms underlying specific drug-induced ADRs but also for mitigating potential ADRs in the drug discovery pipeline.
文摘Paclitaxel is one of the commonly used drugs in postoperative chemotherapy for ovarian cancer patients. However, affected by drug dosage and individual differences in the course of medication, patients will have different degrees of adverse reactions, which will cause damage to the patient’s body once they occur. This paper retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of patients with severe allergic reactions such as fecal incontinence and numbness of hands and feet caused by the use of paclitaxel liposome during postoperative chemotherapy in a case of ovarian cancer admitted to our hospital. The causes and corresponding treatment measures were analyzed, in order to provide the reference for medical staff to take effective countermeasures in advance in the future.

文摘Objective:To monitor the incidence of immune-related adverse events(irAEs)in patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs)and programmed cell death protein-1(PD-1),and to evaluate the effectiveness of nursing interventions using a quantitative scoring system.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 65 cancer patients who received PD-1 therapy at the Oncology Department of Baotou Cancer Hospital from December 2023 to December 2024.The study examined the clinical features and blood test results related to irAEs.The National Cancer Institute’s Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events(NCI-CTCAE)was used to grade the severity of these events,which were classified into five levels.Based on the NCI-CTCAE scores,appropriate nursing measures were implemented,and a comprehensive risk assessment framework was developed.Results:The study group showed lower complication rates,overall incidence,and average hospital stay compared to the control group(P<0.05).Among the 65 patients,twenty-eight(43.07%)experienced a total of 35 irAEs,with 2(5.71%)being grade 3 or 4.The most frequent irAEs were dermatological conditions(34.29%),particularly rash with itching.The occurrence of irAEs did not correlate with patient gender,age,blood parameters(hemoglobin,white blood cell count,platelet count,etc.),or liver function(P>0.05),but it was associated with tumor type(P<0.05).Conclusion:PD-1 treatment is generally safe,with a low incidence of severe(grade 3 or higher)irAEs.Close monitoring is essential to ensure early detection,intervention,and management of irAEs,thereby maintaining a low level of adverse events and enhancing the safety and efficacy of PD-1 therapy.Implementing a quantitative risk scoring system for nursing care can decrease the rate of complications,enhance patient safety,and potentially reduce hospital stays and medical costs.

文摘Based on the Skyrme energy density functional and reaction Q-value,this study proposed an effective nucleus-nucleus poten-tial for describing the capture barrier in heavy-ion fusion processes.The 443 extracted barrier heights were well reproduced with a root-mean-square(RMS)error of 1.53 MeV,and the RMS deviations with respect to 144 time-dependent Hartree-Fock capture barrier heights were only 1.05 MeV.Coupled with the Siwek-Wilczyński formula,wherein three parameters were determined by the proposed effective potentials,the measured capture cross sections at energies around the barriers were reasonably well reproduced for several fusion reactions induced by nearly spherical nuclei as well as by nuclei with large deformations,such as^(154)Sm and^(238)U.The shallow capture pockets and small values of the average barrier radii resulted in the reduction of the capture cross sections for 52,54Cr-and 64 Ni-induced reactions,which were related to the synthesis of new super-heavy nuclei.
文摘This paper, an addendum to “Dialectical Thermodynamics’ solution to the conceptual imbroglio that is the reversible path”, this journal, 10, 775-799, was written in response to the requests of several readers to provide further evidence of the said “imbroglio”. The evidence here presented relates to the incompatibility existing between the total-entropy and the Gibbs energy prescriptions for the reversible path. The previously published proof of the negentropic nature of the transformation of heat into work is here included to validate out conclusions about the Gibbs energy perspective.
文摘Objective:To explore the adverse reactions associated with antibiotics and analyze strategies for their rational use.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 60 patients who experienced adverse reactions to antibiotics between August 2021 and August 2023.The types of antibiotics that caused adverse reactions were analyzed,and the symptoms of adverse reactions and measures for rational use of antibiotics were summarized.Results:Among the analyzed cases of adverse reactions to antibiotics,the highest rate was observed in patients aged 61–75 years,accounting for 38.33%,followed by patients aged 51–60 years,accounting for 20.00%.In terms of the types of antibiotics that caused adverse reactions,cephalosporins were the most common,accounting for 40.00%,followed by penicillins,accounting for 18.33%.Analysis of the systems involved in adverse reactions showed that skin and appendage disorders were the most common,accounting for 36.67%,followed by the digestive system,accounting for 28.33%.Conclusion:Irrational use of antibiotics can lead to adverse drug reactions.Therefore,it is necessary to analyze strategies for the rational use of antibiotics to reduce adverse drug reactions and ensure the safety of antibiotic use.

文摘Microbially induced calcite precipitation(MICP)and Enzyme induced calcite precipitation(EICP)techniques were implemented to reinforce the large-scale calcareous sand in this study.Then a coupled numerical model to predict the biochemical reactions and hydraulic characteristics of MICP and EICP reactions was proposed and verified by physical experiments.Results showed that:This model could describe the variations of bacteria,calcium,calcite,permeability over time reasonably.It is necessary to consider the influence of the calculation domain scale when simulating the convection-diffusionreaction in the multi-process of MICP and EICP reactions.The numerical and experimental values of calcite content are 0.841 g/cm^(3) and 0.861 g/cm^(3) for MICP-reinforced sand,0.263 g/cm^(3) and 0.227 g/cm^(3) for EICP-reinforced sand after 192 h of reaction.The reaction rate k_(rea) is an important parameter to control the calcite content.Accordingly,the permeability coefficient of MICP and EICP reinforced calcareous sand decreases by 32%and 18%.Due to the influence of substance transportation and calcite precipitation,the calcite shows a trend of decreasing firstly and then increasing with the enhancing of the initial permeability coefficient in biochemical reactions.The optimal injecting ratio q11:q12 in this study is 100:300 mL/min.The process for the application of MICP and EICP coupled numerical model is also recommended,which provides reference for engineering projects in ground improvement.

文摘We investigate the impact of high-energy O ions on the occurrence of single-event burnout(SEB) in silicon carbide(Si C) metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors(MOSFETs) under various bias conditions. Through a combination of SRIM, GEANT4, and TCAD simulations, we explore the role of secondary ions generated by nuclear reactions between high-energy O ions and Si C materials. These secondary ions, with significantly higher linear energy transfer(LET) values, contribute to electron–hole pair generation, leading to SEB. Our results show that the energy deposition and penetration depth of these secondary ions, especially those with high LET, are sufficient to induce catastrophic SEB in Si C MOSFETs. The study also highlights the critical influence of reverse bias voltage on SEB occurrence and provides insights into the failure mechanisms induced by nuclear reactions with high-energy O ions. This work offers valuable understanding for improving the radiation resistance of Si C-based power devices used in space and high-radiation environments,contributing to the design of more reliable electronics for future space missions.

文摘The investigation of reaction kinetics is the key to understanding the nature of reaction processes.However,monitoring fast photochemical reactions by mass spectrometry remains challenging.Herein,we developed an optical focusing inductive electrospray(OF-iESI)mass spectrometry platform for real-time and in-situ photoreaction monitoring.Coaxial irradiation from back of nanoelectrospray emitter with a taper section was utilized,so the emitter could act as optical lens to help achieving much larger optical power density at emitter tip compared to other sections,which allowed for in-situ reaction monitoring of photoreactions.Through theoretical calculations,the highest optical power density region volume was ca.45 nL.We also integrated a controller for the laser source(450 nm),enabling the modulation of pulse duration(>1 ms).This facilitates the study of photochemical reaction kinetics.The in-situ capability of this device was proved by capturing the short-lived photogenerated intermediates during the dehydrogenation of tetrahydroquinoline.This device was further used to investigate the kinetics of triplet energy transfer based Paternò-Büchi reaction.The reaction order has hitherto remained undetermined while the result of OF-iESI suggested it followed pseudo-second-order reaction kinetics.The short-lived donor-acceptor collision complex intermediate was also successfully identified by tandem mass spectrometry.
