Methods: A total of 82 high-risk pregnant women with shoulder dystocia admitted for childbirth from January 2022 to January 2025 were selected and equally divided using a random number table. The experimental group received shoulder dystocia midwifery techniques combined with predictive nursing, while the reference group received routine midwifery care. Indicators such as the preventive effect on shoulder dystocia were compared between the two groups. Results: The incidence of shoulder dystocia in the experimental group was lower than that in the reference group, the duration of labor was shorter, the amount of intra-partum bleeding was less, the incidence of adverse delivery outcomes was lower, and the score for fear of childbirth after intervention was lower than that in the reference group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Implementing shoulder dystocia midwifery techniques combined with predictive nursing for high-risk pregnant women with shoulder dystocia can prevent shoulder dystocia and other adverse delivery outcomes, shorten the duration of labor, reduce intra-partum bleeding, and alleviate pregnant women’s fear of childbirth, demonstrating high nursing value.展开更多

文摘Network-on-Chip(NoC)systems are progressively deployed in connecting massively parallel megacore systems in the new computing architecture.As a result,application mapping has become an important aspect of performance and scalability,as current trends require the distribution of computation across network nodes/points.In this paper,we survey a large number of mapping and scheduling techniques designed for NoC architectures.This time,we concentrated on 3D systems.We take a systematic literature review approach to analyze existing methods across static,dynamic,hybrid,and machine-learning-based approaches,alongside preliminary AI-based dynamic models in recent works.We classify them into several main aspects covering power-aware mapping,fault tolerance,load-balancing,and adaptive for dynamic workloads.Also,we assess the efficacy of each method against performance parameters,such as latency,throughput,response time,and error rate.Key challenges,including energy efficiency,real-time adaptability,and reinforcement learning integration,are highlighted as well.To the best of our knowledge,this is one of the recent reviews that identifies both traditional and AI-based algorithms for mapping over a modern NoC,and opens research challenges.Finally,we provide directions for future work toward improved adaptability and scalability via lightweight learned models and hierarchical mapping frameworks.

文摘Seawater electrolysis has attracted considerable attention in hydrogen production.However,the chloride ions(Cl^(-))in seawater can corrode metal sites and decrease the lifespans of the oxygen evolution reaction(OER).Herein,we report a reversed-active sites strategy,converting Cl^(-)-affinitive metal sites to Cl^(-)-repellent oxygen sites,for OER in alkaline seawater electrolysis.First,ex/in situ experiments confirm the effectiveness of such a strategy using typical perovskites following the adsorbate evolution mechanism(AEM)or lattice oxygen-mediated mechanism(LOM).Furthermore,the origins of the superior activity and durability of as-prepared La_(0.3)SrCo_(0.5)Fe_(0.5)Ox(La_(0.3))can be ascribed to higher participation of lattice oxygen in OER,rapid bulk oxygen diffusion,and excellent OH-adsorption kinetics.Hence,an alkaline seawater electrolytic cell with La_(0.3)as the anode produces 10 mA cm^(-2)at just 1.57 V and maintains near-constant activity over 150 hours.This work introduces novel concepts for the production of superactive and steady electrocatalysts for the electrolysis of seawater.

文摘Large-scale CO_(2)emissions have exacerbated the greenhouse effect,reinforcing the critical need for efficient CO_(2)mitigation methods.Plasma-catalytic technology enables CO_(2)conversion under mild conditions,especially for CO_(2)methanation(the Sabatier reaction),which has attracted significant attention due to its economic benefits and the potential for safe energy transportation via existing natural gas pipelines.The development of high-performance CO_(2)methanation catalysts remains an ongoing and long-term objective,and there is a lack of adequate in-situ characterization techniques to investigate the mechanisms.This study focuses on the Ni/La_(2)O_(3)(LN)catalyst and introduces two CO_(2)activation strategies through F and Na modifications:the Ni-Ov-Ni site activation with electron transfer from Ni0 under low-power conditions and basic site activation under high-power conditions.The LN-NaF catalysts enhance CO_(2)methanation activity across the entire power range compared to LN,achieving a CO_(2)conversion of 86.3%and CH4 selectivity of 99.4%.Additionally,LN-F(h)reaches a CH4 yield 4.15 times higher than that of LN at low power.Furthermore,in-situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform(DRIFT)spectroscopy with a self-made reactor are performed under plasma-catalytic conditions to reveal the CO_(2)adsorption and conversion mechanisms,indicating that different dopants(F,Na,and NaF)exhibit promoting effects on different intermediates,resulting in variations in CO_(2)methanation activity.This study provides valuable insights for improving catalyst performance and a thorough comprehension of mechanisms in CO_(2)methanation.

文摘Oxidative magnetization has attracted great attention as an efficient strategy for modulating physiochemical properties of magnetic biochar.In this paper,a K_(2)FeO_(4)-involving hydrothermal oxidative magnetization was explored to regulate multiple micro-structures for manufacture magnetic hydrochar(MHC)for Fenton-like degradation of tetracycline in aqueous solution.Diverse shapes of Fe_(3)O_(4) and nano zero-valent iron(nZVI)were doped with abundant oxygen containing groups and persistent free radicals(PFRs).Multiple catalysis sites including iron species,PFRs,oxygen containing groups,and graphite defects contributed to accelerate the Fenton-like degradation with synergistic effect.Notably,MHC achieved a tetracycline removal rate of 99% within 60 min at 50 mg/L,with a total organic carbon(TOC)removal rate of 35%.Furthermore,after four cycles of reuse,the degradation efficiency slightly decreased to 93%.This study highlights the potential of magnetic hydrochar with multiple catalytic sites in the effective and sustainable degradation of pollutants.

文摘With the increasing emphasis on personal information protection,encryption through security protocols has emerged as a critical requirement in data transmission and reception processes.Nevertheless,IoT ecosystems comprise heterogeneous networks where outdated systems coexist with the latest devices,spanning a range of devices from non-encrypted ones to fully encrypted ones.Given the limited visibility into payloads in this context,this study investigates AI-based attack detection methods that leverage encrypted traffic metadata,eliminating the need for decryption and minimizing system performance degradation—especially in light of these heterogeneous devices.Using the UNSW-NB15 and CICIoT-2023 dataset,encrypted and unencrypted traffic were categorized according to security protocol,and AI-based intrusion detection experiments were conducted for each traffic type based on metadata.To mitigate the problem of class imbalance,eight different data sampling techniques were applied.The effectiveness of these sampling techniques was then comparatively analyzed using two ensemble models and three Deep Learning(DL)models from various perspectives.The experimental results confirmed that metadata-based attack detection is feasible using only encrypted traffic.In the UNSW-NB15 dataset,the f1-score of encrypted traffic was approximately 0.98,which is 4.3%higher than that of unencrypted traffic(approximately 0.94).In addition,analysis of the encrypted traffic in the CICIoT-2023 dataset using the same method showed a significantly lower f1-score of roughly 0.43,indicating that the quality of the dataset and the preprocessing approach have a substantial impact on detection performance.Furthermore,when data sampling techniques were applied to encrypted traffic,the recall in the UNSWNB15(Encrypted)dataset improved by up to 23.0%,and in the CICIoT-2023(Encrypted)dataset by 20.26%,showing a similar level of improvement.Notably,in CICIoT-2023,f1-score and Receiver Operation Characteristic-Area Under the Curve(ROC-AUC)increased by 59.0%and 55.94%,respectively.These results suggest that data sampling can have a positive effect even in encrypted environments.However,the extent of the improvement may vary depending on data quality,model architecture,and sampling strategy.
文摘The most common aspect of water conveyance tunnel construction is the use of horizontal and sub-horizontal exploration drilling of headings of a tunnel to predict geology and groundwater conditions.The instability of boreholes,extreme loss of circulation,and high-head inflow are also common in fractured strata,which often inhibit completion of probe holes and the reliability of coring,packer testing,and grouting tests.Casing,consequently,is a significant enabling technology to stabilize fractured intervals and has a hydraulic isolation under coupled mechanical and hydrogeological disturbances.The review is a synthesis of research and engineering experience on methods of casing to be used in horizontal drilling of fractured rock masses used in the exploration of water conveyance tunnels.The geological and working environment is initially outlined with a focus on fracture-adaptable instability processes and the special goings on of underground drilling,such as the restricted workspace,cuttings difficult to move,and fast movement of the competent and crushed regions.Types of casing systems are then listed,including both standard threaded steel strings and telescopic programs,and more specialized casing system types,including expandable casing,swellable sealing elements,and external casing packers.Special focus is made on the sealing of annulus in horizontal holes,wherein slurry loss,gravity segregation,and non-uniform borehole geometry usually worsen isolation.Lastly,the article suggests adaptive choice of strategy according to real-time drilling reaction,and research priorities,such as tunnel-specific performance measurements,coupled hydro-mechanical modelling,and field trials of sophisticated sealing material and data-driven choice making.

文摘Efficient photocatalytic reduction of CO_(2)is crucial to decrease the atmospheric concentration of CO_(2).Pairing this process with H_(2)O_(2)production is of considerable importance for simultaneously producing value-added chemicals.However,the photocatalysts reported for such a process suffer from a high recombination rate of the surface/bulk charges,as well as inefficient enrichment and activation toward CO_(2)and O_(2),resulting in low conversion efficiency even in the presence of organic sacrificial agents and expensive metal co-catalysts.Herein,two 1,3,5-triphenylbenzene-based organic polymers with high ionic density and porosity are prepared through a facile Sonogashira polymerization.The ionic imidazolium sites embedded in the polymeric skeleton provide the two polymers(iCMP-1 and iCMP-2)with adsorptive selectivity for CO_(2)/N_(2) up to 98-102 at 273 K,facilitating the enrichment of CO_(2)and O_(2)molecules around the catalytic centers,thus boosting their catalytic conversion directly from air under solar light(100 mW cm^(-2)).Benefiting from the improved charge separation and broad light absorption,along with high CO_(2)and O_(2)uptake,iCMP-2 can deliver excellent CO and H_(2)O_(2)yields(611.8 and 810.6μmol h^(-1)g^(-1),respectively)under an atmosphere composed of water vapor and air without any co-catalysts.
文摘Objective: To evaluate the preventive effect of shoulder dystocia midwifery techniques combined with predictive nursing on shoulder dystocia. Methods: A total of 82 high-risk pregnant women with shoulder dystocia admitted for childbirth from January 2022 to January 2025 were selected and equally divided using a random number table. The experimental group received shoulder dystocia midwifery techniques combined with predictive nursing, while the reference group received routine midwifery care. Indicators such as the preventive effect on shoulder dystocia were compared between the two groups. Results: The incidence of shoulder dystocia in the experimental group was lower than that in the reference group, the duration of labor was shorter, the amount of intra-partum bleeding was less, the incidence of adverse delivery outcomes was lower, and the score for fear of childbirth after intervention was lower than that in the reference group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Implementing shoulder dystocia midwifery techniques combined with predictive nursing for high-risk pregnant women with shoulder dystocia can prevent shoulder dystocia and other adverse delivery outcomes, shorten the duration of labor, reduce intra-partum bleeding, and alleviate pregnant women’s fear of childbirth, demonstrating high nursing value.

文摘Accurate assessment of site quality in coastal Casuarina equisetifolia(C.equisetifolia)plantations is essential for enhancing the protective function of shelterbelts and implementing site-specific afforestation strategies.However,traditional ground-based surveys are limited in spatial coverage and efficiency,hindering effective forest management.To overcome these limitations,this study developed an integrated assessment framework that couples ground-based modeling with remote sensing inversion to achieve large-scale site quality mapping.Field investigations on Pingtan Island,Fujian Province,China,were used to establish a ground-based evaluation model.Soil fertility was quantified using Principal Component Analysis(PCA),and principal components were classified into discrete fertility grades through K-means clustering.These grades,together with topographic variables,were incorporated into a site quality classification model constructed using Quantification Theory I.The point-based model was subsequently extrapolated using Landsat 9 imagery to generate a spatially continuous site quality map.Spatial autocorrelation(Moran’s Ⅰ)and LISA clustering were further employed to interpret spatial patterns.Results indicate that coastal sandy soils in the study area are generally nutrient-poor,with tree growth primarily constrained by total nitrogen,organic matter,available phosphorus,and total phosphorus.The five most influential site factors,ranked by importance,are soil fertility,distance from the coastline,aspect,slope gradient,and elevation.Optimal conditions for C.equisetifolia growth include fertile soil,location>1000 m from the coastline,south-facing or semi-sunny slopes,slope gradients<15°,and elevations between 10-100 m.Only 11.94%of the area was classified as high-quality(Grade I),while 61.74%fell into moderate or poor grades(Grades Ⅲ and Ⅳ),indicating that most plantations are located on suboptimal sites.This study provides scientific support for improving the precision and sustainability of coastal shelterbelt planning and management,offering practical insights for afforestation strategies,forest restoration,and ecological forestry development in coastal zones.

文摘Synaptic pruning is a crucial process in synaptic refinement,eliminating unstable synaptic connections in neural circuits.This process is triggered and regulated primarily by spontaneous neural activity and experience-dependent mechanisms.The pruning process involves multiple molecular signals and a series of regulatory activities governing the“eat me”and“don't eat me”states.Under physiological conditions,the interaction between glial cells and neurons results in the clearance of unnecessary synapses,maintaining normal neural circuit functionality via synaptic pruning.Alterations in genetic and environmental factors can lead to imbalanced synaptic pruning,thus promoting the occurrence and development of autism spectrum disorder,schizophrenia,Alzheimer's disease,and other neurological disorders.In this review,we investigated the molecular mechanisms responsible for synaptic pruning during neural development.We focus on how synaptic pruning can regulate neural circuits and its association with neurological disorders.Furthermore,we discuss the application of emerging optical and imaging technologies to observe synaptic structure and function,as well as their potential for clinical translation.Our aim was to enhance our understanding of synaptic pruning during neural development,including the molecular basis underlying the regulation of synaptic function and the dynamic changes in synaptic density,and to investigate the potential role of these mechanisms in the pathophysiology of neurological diseases,thus providing a theoretical foundation for the treatment of neurological disorders.

文摘In general,metal carbides are synthesized via high-temperature-programmed solid-gas reactions using methane under an inert atmosphere.However,fabricating single-atom(SA)catalysts on such carbide supports typically inherits these demanding conditions,requiring multiple chemical reagents and prolonged processing.To overcome these synthetic limitations,we introduced a pulsed laser-driven strategy that integrates pulsed laser ablation and liquid-phase irradiation to construct atomically dispersed Pt sites on molybdenum carbide(Pt/MoC)nanospheres with tunable loading densities.These catalysts exhibit improved hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)activity in alkaline media,despite HER conventionally favoring acidic conditions.To enhance the hydrogen production efficiency of the electrolyzer while reducing energy consumption,we strategically replaced the conventional oxygen evolution reaction with the hydrazine oxidation reaction(HzOR)at the anode.Strong metal-support interactions between Pt atoms and MoC modulate the local electronic structure,thereby optimizing the adsorption energies of key intermediates for HzOR.In situ Raman spectroelectrochemistry and theoretical calculations elucidate the reaction mechanism,highlighting the role of Pt SA sites in lowering activation barriers for N2 and H2 evolution.The optimized Pt/MoC catalyst achieves enhanced HER performance in overall hydrazine splitting compared with conventional overall water splitting,maintaining structural integrity and outstanding stability over 100 h at 30 mA cm^(-2).This study establishes a pulsed laser-based strategy for atomic-engineered Pt/MoC as a promising platform for energy-effective and hydrazine-fueled hydrogen generation in alkaline conditions.

文摘Water electrolysis is pivotal for converting renewable energy into clean hydrogen fuel,addressing global energy demand sustainably.However,the development of highly efficient and cost-effective catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction(OER)remains a significant challenge,particularly at the industrial scale.This report explores a newly discovered pathway,the oxide path mechanism(OPM) for OER-mechanism involving the oxide formation and evolution during the reaction,emphasizing its potential to overcome existing limitations.OPM enables direct O-O coupling without oxygen vacancies,offering superior stability.We detail both classical and innovative in-situ characterization techniques that are central to unraveling the OER mechanism.The advanced in-situ electrochemical techniques,such as inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,and Mössbauer spectroscopy,coupled with in-situ structural analyses,provide crucial insights into the catalyst surface,the electrode-electrolyte interface and the kinetics of OER.This review provides a systematic analysis integrating classical electrochemical methods with advanced in-situ/operando techniques,specifically focusing on understanding OPM.While numerous studies have examined individual characterization methods,this study systematically integrates traditional electrochemical approaches with in-situ and operando techniques,offering critical insights into their complementary roles in elucidating reaction pathways.The integration of these methodologies provides unprecedented understanding of catalyst behavior under operational conditions,guiding the rational design of next-generation OER catalysts.Furthermore,we discuss essential standardized test toolkits and protocols,such as those for rotating disk electrode and membrane electrode assembly,which are vital for ensuring reproducibility and scalability in OER catalyst research.
