文摘Liposarcoma is one of the most common soft tissue sarcomas,however,its occurrence rate is still rare compared to other cancers.Due to its rarity,in vitro experiments are an essential approach to elucidate liposarcoma pathobiology.Conventional cell culture-based research(2D cell culture)is still playing a pivotal role,while several shortcomings have been recently under discussion.In vivo,mouse models are usually adopted for pre-clinical analyses with expectations to overcome the issues of 2D cell culture.However,they do not fully recapitulate human dedifferentiated liposarcoma(DDLPS)characteristics.Therefore,three-dimensional(3D)culture systems have been the recent research focus in the cell biology field with the expectation to overcome at the same time the disadvantages of 2D cell culture and in vivo animal models and fill in the gap between them.Given the liposarcoma rarity,we believe that 3D cell culture techniques,including 3D cell cultures/co-cultures,and Patient-Derived tumor Organoids(PDOs),represent a promising approach to facilitate liposarcoma investigation and elucidate its molecular mechanisms and effective therapy development.In this review,we first provide a general overview of 3D cell cultures compared to 2D cell cultures.We then focus on one of the recent 3D cell culture applications,Patient-Derived Organoids(PDOs),summarizing and discussing several PDO methodologies.Finally,we discuss the current and future applications of PDOs to sarcoma,particularly in the field of liposarcoma.

文摘Bone repair remains an important target in tissue engineering,making the development of bioactive scaffolds for effective bone defect repair a critical objective.In this study,β-tricalcium phosphate(β-TCP)scaffolds incorporated with processed pyritum decoction(PPD)were fabricated using three-dimensional(3D)printing-assisted freeze-casting.The produced composite scaffolds were evaluated for their mechanical strength,physicochemical properties,biocompatibility,in vitro proangiogenic activity,and in vivo efficacy in repairing rabbit femoral defects.They not only demonstrated excellent physicochemical properties,enhanced mechanical strength,and good biosafety but also significantly promoted the proliferation,migration,and aggregation of pro-angiogenic human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs).In vivo studies revealed that all scaffold groups facilitated osteogenesis at the bone defect site,with theβ-TCP scaffolds loaded with PPD markedly enhancing the expression of neurogenic locus Notch homolog protein 1(Notch1),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),bone morphogenetic protein-2(BMP-2),and osteopontin(OPN).Overall,the scaffolds developed in this study exhibited strong angiogenic and osteogenic capabilities both in vitro and in vivo.The incorporation of PPD notably promoted the angiogenic-osteogenic coupling,thereby accelerating bone repair,which suggests that PPD is a promising material for bone repair and that the PPD/β-TCP scaffolds hold great potential as a bone graft alternative.
文摘The development of minimally invasive surgery has transformed the management of gastrointestinal cancer.Notably,three-dimensional visualization systems have increased surgical precision.This editorial discusses a recent study by Shen and Zhang,which compared the clinical applications of naked-eye threedimensional laparoscopic systems vs traditional optical systems in radical surgery for gastric and colorectal cancer.Both systems appeared to yield comparable surgical and oncological outcomes in terms of safety parameters,operating times,and quality of lymph node dissection.However,the spectacle-free system’s technical and logistical limitations hindered its effects on the surgical team’s overall competency.This editorial examines the authors’findings within the broader context of the evolution of oncologic laparoscopy,discusses the relevance of the results in light of the current literature,and proposes future research directions focused on multicenter validation,comprehensive ergonomic analysis,and technological advancements aimed at enhancing intraoperative collaboration.As technology continues to evolve,clinical implementation of new methods must be supported by robust scientific evidence and standardized criteria,to ensure tangible improvements in efficiency,safety,and oncologic outcomes.

文摘Edit distance is an algorithm to measure the difference between two strings,usually represented as the minimum number of editing operations required to transform one string into another.The edit distance algorithm involves complex dependencies and constraints,making state management and verification work tedious.This paper proposes a derivation and verification method that avoids directly handling dependencies and constraints by proving the equivalence between the edit distance algorithm and existing functional modeling.First,the derivation process of edit distance algorithm mainly includes 1)describing problem specifications,2)inductively deducing recursive relations,3)formally constructing loop invariants using the optimization theory(memorization technology and optimal decision table)and properties(optimal substructure property and subproblems overlapping property)of the edit distance algorithm,4)generating the Minimalistic Imperative Programming Language(IMP)code based on the recursive relations.Second,the problem specification,loop invariants,and generated IMP code are input into Verification Condition Generator(VCG),which automatically generate five verification conditions,and then the correctness of edit distance algorithm is verified in the Isabelle/HOL theorem prover.The method utilizes formal technologies and theorem prover to complete the derivation and verification of the edit distance algorithm,and it can be applied to linear and nonlinear dynamic programming problems.

文摘The exponential growth of the Internet of Things(IoT)has revolutionized various domains such as healthcare,smart cities,and agriculture,generating vast volumes of data that require secure processing and storage in cloud environments.However,reliance on cloud infrastructure raises critical security challenges,particularly regarding data integrity.While existing cryptographic methods provide robust integrity verification,they impose significant computational and energy overheads on resource-constrained IoT devices,limiting their applicability in large-scale,real-time scenarios.To address these challenges,we propose the Cognitive-Based Integrity Verification Model(C-BIVM),which leverages Belief-Desire-Intention(BDI)cognitive intelligence and algebraic signatures to enable lightweight,efficient,and scalable data integrity verification.The model incorporates batch auditing,reducing resource consumption in large-scale IoT environments by approximately 35%,while achieving an accuracy of over 99.2%in detecting data corruption.C-BIVM dynamically adapts integrity checks based on real-time conditions,optimizing resource utilization by minimizing redundant operations by more than 30%.Furthermore,blind verification techniques safeguard sensitive IoT data,ensuring privacy compliance by preventing unauthorized access during integrity checks.Extensive experimental evaluations demonstrate that C-BIVM reduces computation time for integrity checks by up to 40%compared to traditional bilinear pairing-based methods,making it particularly suitable for IoT-driven applications in smart cities,healthcare,and beyond.These results underscore the effectiveness of C-BIVM in delivering a secure,scalable,and resource-efficient solution tailored to the evolving needs of IoT ecosystems.

文摘The three-dimensional particle electrode system exhibits significant potential for application in the treatment of wastewater.Nonetheless,the advancement of effective granular electrodes characterized by elevated catalytic activity and minimal energy consumption continues to pose a significant challenge.In this research,Fluorine-doped copper-carbon(F/Cu-GAC)particle electrodes were effectively synthesized through an impregnationcalcination technique,utilizing granular activated carbon as the carrier and fluorinedoped modified copper oxides as the catalytic agents.The particle electrodes were subsequently utilized to promote the degradation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol(2,4,6-TCP)in a threedimensional electrocatalytic reactor(3DER).The F/Cu-GAC particle electrodes were polarized under the action of electric field,which promoted the heterogeneous Fenton-like reaction in which H2O2 generated by two-electron oxygen reduction reaction(2e-ORR)of O_(2) was catalytically decomposed to·OH.The 3DER equipped with F/Cu-GAC particle electrodes showed 100%removal of 2,4,6-TCP and 79.24%removal of TOC with a specific energy consumption(EC)of approximately 0.019 kWh/g·COD after 2 h of operation.The F/Cu-GAC particle electrodes exhibited an overpotential of 0.38 V and an electrochemically active surface area(ECSA)of 715 cm^(2),as determined through linear sweep voltammetry(LSV)and cyclic voltammetry(CV)assessments.These findings suggest a high level of electrocatalytic performance.Furthermore,the catalytic mechanism of the 3DER equipped with F/Cu-GAC particle electrodes was elucidated through the application of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),electron spin resonance(ESR),and active species capture experiments.This investigation offers a novel approach for the effective degradation of 2,4,6-TCP.

文摘With the evolution of next-generation communication networks,ensuring robust Core Network(CN)architecture and data security has become paramount.This paper addresses critical vulnerabilities in the architecture of CN and data security by proposing a novel framework based on blockchain technology that is specifically designed for communication networks.Traditional centralized network architectures are vulnerable to Distributed Denial of Service(DDoS)attacks,particularly in roaming scenarios where there is also a risk of private data leakage,which imposes significant operational demands.To address these issues,we introduce the Blockchain-Enhanced Core Network Architecture(BECNA)and the Secure Decentralized Identity Authentication Scheme(SDIDAS).The BECNA utilizes blockchain technology to decentralize data storage,enhancing network security,stability,and reliability by mitigating Single Points of Failure(SPoF).The SDIDAS utilizes Decentralized Identity(DID)technology to secure user identity data and streamline authentication in roaming scenarios,significantly reducing the risk of data breaches during cross-network transmissions.Our framework employs Ethereum,free5GC,Wireshark,and UERANSIM tools to create a robust,tamper-evident system model.A comprehensive security analysis confirms substantial improvements in user privacy and network security.Simulation results indicate that our approach enhances communication CNs security and reliability,while also ensuring data security.

文摘Verification and validation(V&V)is a helpful tool for evaluating simulation errors,but its application in unsteady cavitating flow remains a challenging issue due to the difficulty in meeting the requirement of an asymptotic range.Hence,a new V&V approach for large eddy simulation(LES)is proposed.This approach offers a viable solution for the error estimation of simulation data that are unable to satisfy the asymptotic range.The simulation errors of cavitating flow around a projectile near the free surface are assessed using the new V&V method.The evident error values are primarily dispersed around the cavity region and free surface.The increasingly intense cavitating flow increases the error magnitudes.In addition,the modeling error magnitudes of the Dynamic Smagorinsky-Lilly model are substantially smaller than that of the Smagorinsky-Lilly model.The present V&V method can capture the decrease in the modeling errors due to model enhancements,further exhibiting its applicability in cavitating flow simulations.Moreover,the monitoring points where the simulation data are beyond the asymptotic range are primarily dispersed near the cavity region,and the number of such points grows as the cavitating flow intensifies.The simulation outcomes also suggest that the re-entrant jet and shedding cavity collapse are the chief sources of vorticity motions,which remarkably affect the simulation accuracy.The results of this study provide a valuable reference for V&V research.

文摘BACKGROUND Ganglioneuroma is a rare,well-differentiated,slow-growing benign tumor of the peripheral nerves,with surgical resection being the only curative treatment.Surgical resection of ganglioneuromas encasing major blood vessels remains a substantial clinical challenge.Traditionally,these cases often require open abdominal surgery or combined organ resections,and in some instances,the tumors are considered unresectable.Currently,no reports have described the resection of such tumors via laparoscopy.CASE SUMMARY A 35-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital after the incidental discovery of a retroperitoneal space-occupying lesion.Imaging revealed a mass with the celiac axis and superior mesenteric artery passing through it.A neurogenic tumor was suspected,with ganglioneuroma being the most likely diagnosis.Following comprehensive preoperative preparation,the retroperitoneal tumor was resected using a three-dimensional laparoscopy combined with an organ suspension technique.The surgical approach involved incising the tumor along the vascular axis and conducting meticulous,vascular-preserving tumor excision.The operation lasted approximately 458 minutes,with an estimated blood loss of 50 mL.The patient was discharged on the 8th postoperative day.A transient liver injury occurred after surgery but improved rapidly.After 11 months of postoperative follow-up,no complications or tumor recurrence were observed.CONCLUSION This case illustrates the feasibility of minimally invasive laparoscopic resection for retroperitoneal ganglioneuromas encasing major blood vessels.

文摘Thermal metamaterial represents a groundbreaking approach to control heat conduction,and,as a crucial component,thermal invisibility is of utmost importance for heat management.Despite the flourishing development of thermal invisibility schemes,they still face two limitations in practical applications.First,objects are typically completely enclosed in traditional cloaks,making them difficult to use and unsuitable for objects with heat sources.Second,although some theoretical proposals have been put forth to change the thermal conductivity of materials to achieve dynamic invisibility,their designs are complex and rigid,making them unsuitable for large-scale use in real threedimensional(3D)spaces.Here,we propose a concept of a thermal dome to achieve 3D invisibility.Our scheme includes an open functional area,greatly enhancing its usability and applicability.It features a reconfigurable structure,constructed with simple isotropic natural materials,making it suitable for dynamic requirements.The performance of our reconfigurable thermal dome has been confirmed through simulations and experiments,consistent with the theory.The introduction of this concept can greatly advance the development of thermal invisibility technology from theory to engineering and provide inspiration for other physical domains,such as direct current electric fields and magnetic fields.

文摘In the foundry industries,process design has traditionally relied on manuals and complex theoretical calculations.With the advent of 3D design in casting,computer-aided design(CAD)has been applied to integrate the features of casting process,thereby expanding the scope of design options.These technologies use parametric model design techniques for rapid component creation and use databases to access standard process parameters and design specifications.However,3D models are currently still created through inputting or calling parameters,which requires numerous verifications through calculations to ensure the design rationality.This process may be significantly slowed down due to repetitive modifications and extended design time.As a result,there are increasingly urgent demands for a real-time verification mechanism to address this issue.Therefore,this study proposed a novel closed-loop model and software development method that integrated contextual design with real-time verification,dynamically verifying relevant rules for designing 3D casting components.Additionally,the study analyzed three typical closed-loop scenarios of agile design in an independent developed intelligent casting process system.It is believed that foundry industries can potentially benefit from favorably reduced design cycles to yield an enhanced competitive product market.

文摘The dispersibility of active components in hydrodesulfurization(HDS)catalysts significantly influences the corresponding catalytic performance.In this study,sugar-based materials(glucose,chitosan,soluble starch,and corn starch)were utilized to prepare CoMo bulk HDS catalysts through a sugar foaming process.The foaming intermediates were analyzed using TG,FTIR,and Raman techniques to investigate the pyrolysis and carbonization process,revealing the presence of graphitic carbon in the 3 DPG,3 DPSS,and 3 DPCS catalysts even after calcination in an air atmosphere.The catalysts were further characterized using SEM,XRD,TEM,low-temperature N_(2) physical adsorption,and XPS.The 3 DPSS catalyst exhibited a thiophene conversion of 94.8%at 360℃ and 1 MPa,which could be ascribed to its unique three-dimensional pore structure,high dispersion of MoS_(2)(0.21),and high fraction of Mo^(4+)(83.14%).This study demonstrates the potential of using the sugar foaming technique to develop highly efficient HDS catalysts and provides new insights into the relationship between the physicochemical properties of the obtained catalysts and their catalytic performance.
