This article presents strategies for improving the efficiency of patient transfers, particularly in hospitals where intensive care units are located in buildings separate from general wards. Patient transfers comprise several steps: physicians issue orders, relatives are notified, equipment is prepared, and medical staff coordinate. We identified three factors that influence transfer time: preparation time for bed transfer, time required for shift handovers, and time required for between-ward patient movement. Unfamiliarity with transfer routes and long elevator wait times were factors that also influenced transfer time. The following strategies were proposed: develop a standardized material checklist, design key notes for patient transfers, and optimize transfer routes. These strategies reduced transfer times by 40% to 43%. This study demonstrates that by addressing logistical challenges and streamlining relevant procedures, hospitals can enhance safety and quality of care during patient transfers.展开更多

文摘Pulsed dynamic electrolysis(PDE),driven by renewable energy,has emerged as an innovative electrocatalytic conversion method,demonstrating significant potential in addressing global energy challenges and promoting sustainable development.Despite significant progress in various electrochemical systems,the regulatory mechanisms of PDE in energy and mass transfer and the lifespan extension of electrolysis systems,particularly in water electrolysis(WE)for hydrogen production,remain insufficiently explored.Therefore,there is an urgent need for a deeper understanding of the unique contributions of PDE in mass transfer enhancement,microenvironment regulation,and hydrogen production optimization,aiming to achieve low-energy consumption,high catalytic activity,and long-term stability in the generation of target products.Here,this review critically examines the microenvironmental effects of PDE on energy and mass transfer,the electrode degradation mechanisms in the lifespan extension of electrolysis systems,and the key factors in enhancing WE for hydrogen production,providing a comprehensive summary of current research progress.The review focuses on the complex regulatory mechanisms of frequency,duty cycle,amplitude,and other factors in hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)performance within PDE strategies,revealing the interrelationships among them.Finally,the potential future directions and challenges for transitioning from laboratory studies to industrial applications are proposed.
文摘Triclosan(TCS) poses harmful risks to ecosystems and human health owing to its endocrine-disrupting effects.Therefore,developing an efficient and sustainable technology to degrade TCS is urgently needed.Herein,cobalt oxyhydroxide @covalent organic frameworks(CoOOH@COFs) S-scheme heterojunction was synthesized,which combined the visible-light-driven photocatalysis and peroxymonosulfate(PMS) activation to synergistically generate abundant reactive oxygen species(ROSs) for TCS degradation.The degradation efficiency of TCS reached 100 % within 8 min in the Vis-CoOOH@COFs/PMS system,and the reaction rate constant was 0.456 min^(-1),which was nearly 1.90 and 2.85 times that of single Co OOH and COFs,and2.36 times that under dark condition,respectively.The density functional theory(DFT) calculations confirmed the energy band bending of CoOOH@COFs and S-scheme charge transport from COFs to Co OOH.Both experimental and theoretical analyses indicated that Co OOH@COFs in photocatalytic-PMS activation systems synergistically facilitated photo-generated carrier separation,enhanced interfacial electron transfer,accelerated PMS activation,and generated multiple ROSs.In particular,photogenerated electrons(e^(-))accelerated the Co(Ⅲ)/Co(Ⅱ) redox cycle,while the PMS captured the e-,which significantly decreased the charge combination of Co OOH@COFs.Radicals(O_(2)^(·-),^(·)OH,and SO_(4)^(·-)) and non-radicals(such as ^(1)O_(2),h^(+),and e^(-)) were both presented in the Vis-CoOOH@COFs/PMS system,with O_(2)^(-) playing a dominant role in TCS degradation.Furthermore,the pathway of TCS degradation and toxicity of intermediates were explored by DFT calculation and transformation product identification.Importantly,the environmentally friendly CoOOH@COFs S-scheme heterojunction exhibited excellent stability and reusability.In conclusion,this study innovatively designed an S-scheme heterojunction in the photocatalytic-PMS activation system,providing guidance and theoretical support for efficient and eco-friendly wastewater treatment.

文摘Theoretical calculations serve as an effective method for determining plasma temperatures within planetary atmospheres.To simulate plasma temperature,a comprehensive implementation of the energy equation is used,which is governed by five terms:conductivity,heating,cooling,adiabatic expansion,and advection.The derivations mentioned are strongly dependent on the collision cross section between electrons and other particles(e.g.,neutrals,ions).It is notable that the momentum transfer cross sections between electrons and neutrals have been updated in recent decades.However,the widely used momentum average collision cross sections between electrons and neutrals,derived from the momentum transfer cross sections,are collected in studies dating back nearly half a century.Therefore,it becomes imperative to revise the momentum average collision cross sections relevant to astrophysical contexts,based on the latest studies.In this study,we summarize the momentum average collision cross sections of 13 species common in planetary atmospheres:H,H_(2),He,O,CH_(4),H_(2)O,CO,N_(2),O_(2),Ar,CO_(2),N_(2)O,and NO_(2).All results are derived from the latest studies concerning the electron-neutral collision cross section and are compared with previous studies.Furthermore,we present a comparison of the derived total electron-neutral collision frequency at Mars between this study and previous studies.Prominent differences in the total electron-neutral collision frequency between this and prior studies support the significance of updating the momentum average collision cross section between electrons and neutrals in studying the planetary atmospheres.

文摘The development of optoelectronic technologies demands photodetectors with miniaturization,broadband operation,high sensitivity,and low power consumption.Although 2D van der Waals(vd W)heterostructures are promising candidates due to their built-in electric fields,ultrafast photocarrier separation,and tunable bandgaps,defect states limit their performance.Therefore,the modulation of the optoelectronic properties in such heterostructures is imperative.Surface charge transfer doping(SCTD)has emerged as a promising strategy for non-destructive modulation of electronic and optoelectronic characteristics in two-dimensional materials.In this work,we demonstrate the construction of high-performance p-i-n vertical heterojunction photodetectors through SCTD of MoTe_(2)/ReS_(2)heterostructure using p-type F_(4)-TCNQ.Systematic characterization reveals that the interfacial doping process effectively amplifies the built-in electric field,enhancing photogenerated carrier separation efficiency.Compared to the pristine heterojunction device,the doped photodetector exhibits remarkable visible to nearinfrared(635-1064 nm)performance.Particularly under 1064 nm illumination at zero bias,the device achieves a responsivity of 2.86 A/W and specific detectivity of 1.41×10^(12)Jones.Notably,the external quantum efficiency reaches an exceptional value of 334%compared to the initial 11.5%,while maintaining ultrafast response characteristics with rise/fall times of 11.6/15.6μs.This work provides new insights into interface engineering through molecular doping for developing high-performance vd W optoelectronic devices.

文摘Chemical exchange saturation transfer magnetic resonance imaging is an advanced imaging technique that enables the detection of compounds at low concentrations with high sensitivity and spatial resolution and has been extensively studied for diagnosing malignancy and stroke.In recent years,the emerging exploration of chemical exchange saturation transfer magnetic resonance imaging for detecting pathological changes in neurodegenerative diseases has opened up new possibilities for early detection and repetitive scans without ionizing radiation.This review serves as an overview of chemical exchange saturation transfer magnetic resonance imaging with detailed information on contrast mechanisms and processing methods and summarizes recent developments in both clinical and preclinical studies of chemical exchange saturation transfer magnetic resonance imaging for Alzheimer’s disease,Parkinson’s disease,multiple sclerosis,and Huntington’s disease.A comprehensive literature search was conducted using databases such as PubMed and Google Scholar,focusing on peer-reviewed articles from the past 15 years relevant to clinical and preclinical applications.The findings suggest that chemical exchange saturation transfer magnetic resonance imaging has the potential to detect molecular changes and altered metabolism,which may aid in early diagnosis and assessment of the severity of neurodegenerative diseases.Although promising results have been observed in selected clinical and preclinical trials,further validations are needed to evaluate their clinical value.When combined with other imaging modalities and advanced analytical methods,chemical exchange saturation transfer magnetic resonance imaging shows potential as an in vivo biomarker,enhancing the understanding of neuropathological mechanisms in neurodegenerative diseases.

文摘BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)is a globally prevalent malignancy associated with high morbidity and mortality.Transfer RNA(tRNA)-derived small RNAs(tsRNAs),a class of small non-coding RNAs originating from tRNA,have emerged as potential therapeutic targets in cancers,including HCC.However,the specific tsRNAs involved in HCC and their precise mechanisms remain largely unknown.In this study,we identify and characterize specific tsRNAs involved in the development and progression of HCC,discovering their potential as novel biomarkers for early detection and potential therapeutic targets.AIM To investigate differentially expressed tsRNAs in HCC,identify potential biomarkers,and elucidate the functions and mechanisms of tsRNAs in HCC.METHODS Differentially expressed tsRNAs in Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer 0/A-stage HCC tissues were identified through high-throughput sequencing.Agarose gel electrophoresis,Sanger sequencing,and quantitative polymerase chain reaction were conducted to detect 5’-tRNA halve(tiRNA)-lysine(Lys)-CTT in tissues and serum samples.The diagnostic performance of 5’-tiRNA-Lys-CTT was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic analysis.HCC cell proliferation was examined using the Cell Counting Kit-8 assay,colony formation assay,and 5-ethynyl-2’-deoxyuridine staining.Additionally,the migratory capability of HCC cells was investigated using Transwell assays.RESULTS The 5’-tiRNA-Lys-CTT demonstrated excellent stability and can be easily detected.Its expression was significantly upregulated in 50 HCC tissues,110 HCC serum samples,and 5 HCC cell lines vs control groups,and the differences were all significant.This elevated expression was strongly associated with clinicopathological characteristics,particularly tumor size,Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage,and cirrhosis of the liver.Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed superior detection efficiency of 5’-tiRNA-Lys-CTT exhibits for early-stage HCC compared to established markers.Functional assays revealed that 5’-tiRNA-Lys-CTT overexpression promoted cell proliferation and migration,while its inhibition had the opposite effect.Bioinformatics predictions suggest that 5’-tiRNA-Lys-CTT may influence the development and progression of liver cancer by targeting downstream mRNA via metabolic pathways,cancer pathways,and HCC-specific pathways.CONCLUSION The 5’-tiRNA-Lys-CTT levels were higher in early HCC patients.5’-tiRNA-Lys-CTT is a promising diagnostic biomarker for early-stage HCC and may play an oncogenic role in HCC by interacting with downstream mRNA targets via specific pathways.
文摘Transferring patients with critical illnesses from general wards to intensive care units (ICUs) is a crucial and time-sensitive process. This article presents strategies for improving the efficiency of patient transfers, particularly in hospitals where intensive care units are located in buildings separate from general wards. Patient transfers comprise several steps: physicians issue orders, relatives are notified, equipment is prepared, and medical staff coordinate. We identified three factors that influence transfer time: preparation time for bed transfer, time required for shift handovers, and time required for between-ward patient movement. Unfamiliarity with transfer routes and long elevator wait times were factors that also influenced transfer time. The following strategies were proposed: develop a standardized material checklist, design key notes for patient transfers, and optimize transfer routes. These strategies reduced transfer times by 40% to 43%. This study demonstrates that by addressing logistical challenges and streamlining relevant procedures, hospitals can enhance safety and quality of care during patient transfers.
文摘Herein,the liquid-solid mass trans fer characteristics in micropacked bed reactors(μPBRs)operated with immiscible liquid-liquid two-phase flow is experimentally investigated.It is found that the overall volumetric liquid-solid mass transfer coefficient(k_(s)a)increases with the total flow rate and the channelto-particle diameter ratio,while decreases with the organic-to-aqueous phase flow rate ratio.A satisfactory correlation model for calculating k_(s)a of the liquid-liquid μPBRs is developed.The new knowledge obtained would be useful in guiding the design and optimization of the liquid-liquid μPBRs.

文摘Heterostructures of organic semi-conductors and transition metal dichalcogenides(TMDs)are viable candidates for superior optoelec-tronic devices.Photoinduced inter-facial charge transfer is crucial for the performance efficiency of such devices,yet the underlying mecha-nism,especially the roles of optical-ly dark triplets and spatially sepa-rated charge transfer states,is poorly understood.In the present work,we obtain the struc-tures of distinct excited states and investigate how they are involved in the charge transfer process at the Pd-octaethylporphyrin(PdOEP)and WS_(2) interface in terms of their energies and couplings.The results show that electron transfer from the triplet PdOEP formed via intersystem crossing prevails over direct electron transfer from the singlet(two orders of magnitude faster).Further analysis reveals that the relatively higher rate of triplet electron transfer compared to singlet electron transfer is mainly attributed to a smaller reorganization energy,which is dominated by the out-of-plane vibrations of the organic component.The work emphasizes the important roles of the optically dark triplets in the electron transfer of the PdOEP@WS_(2) heterostructure,and provides valuable theoretical insights for further improv-ing the optoelectronic performance of TMD-based devices.

文摘Here we present a highly efficient protocol utilizing nickel-hydride hydrogen atom transfer catalysis for the regio-and enantioselective hydrofluorination of internal alkenes.This method efficiently assembles a wide array of enantioenrichedβ-fluoro amides with excellent regio-and enantioselectivity from internal unactivated alkenes.Mechanistic investigations suggest that this transformation proceeds via a NiHhydrogen atom transfer to alkene,followed by a stereoselective fluorine atom transfer process.The weak coordination effect of the tethered amide group is identified as a crucial factor governing the observed regio-and enantioselectivity.

文摘This study utilized a sequential mediating model to examine the role of motivation to learn and transfer selfefficacy in the relationships between perceived content validity,mentoring function,continuous learning work culture and intention to transfer learning.The sample comprized 429 final-year apprentices in Guangdong province,China(females=69.9%,Engineering&Medicine=69%,mean age=20.99,SD=1.60).The apprentices completed standardized measures of motivation to learn,transfer self-efficacy perceived content validity,mentoring function,and continuous learning work culture.Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data.Results showed perceived content validity,mentoring function,continuous learning culture to predict intention to transfer learning.Of these factors,perceived content validity was the strongest predictor of intention to transfer learning.Of these factors,perceived content validity was the most influential predictor of intention to transfer learning.The motivation to learn and transfer self-efficacy sequentially mediated the relationship between mentoring function and intention to learning transfer to be stronger than by either alone.Although perceived content validity and continuous learning culture exhibited no significant direct effects on intention to transfer learning,they demonstrated positive indirect associations with intention to transfer via motivation to learn and transfer self-efficacy.These study findings extend the applications of the learning transfer framework to individuals undergoing apprenticeship training which also would apply to other a long-term work-based learning programs.

文摘Current research on rail vehicle system vibrations primarily relies on numerical methods,with vibration transfer functions commonly derived through data fitting.However,the physical mechanisms underlying these vibrations are not well understood.To clarify the vibration transfer function and its characteristics,four basic input vectors are defined,and an analytical method is proposed.The vibration transfer functions of the vehicle system are solved,and their spatial coherence is analyzed.The results show that there are two spatial scales and four coherent modes in the vehicle system.The track irregularity wavelengths are combined with two spatial scales to alter the proportions of basic input vectors and then show the characteristics of spatial coherence.Four coherent modes are involved in wheel-rail force and primary suspension force;two coherent modes are involved in bogie vertical motion;and their dominant modes vary with the input frequency.On the other hand,the coherent modes involved in the bogie pitching motion and vehicle body motion are single and fixed over the whole range of frequency.This study presents an analytical method for the rapid solution of dynamic responses in vehicle systems and systematically analyzes the coherence behavior of vibration transfer functions with respect to tracking irregularity wavelengths.

文摘The growing need for enhanced heat dissipation is compelling the development of more effective heat exchangers.Innovation inspired by nature bionics,four types of leaf-shaped pin fins were proposed and four combinations of them were considered.The leaf-shaped design of the cooling pin fin enhances uniformity and synergy,effectively creating an optimized flow path that boosts cooling performance.Eight three-dimensional conjugate heat transfer models in staggered arrangement were developed using ANSYS-Fluent software.Aluminum6061material was used as the heat sinkmaterial and single-phase liquid water flowed through the rectangular channel where the Reynolds(R_(e))number varies from 40 to 100.Using the same boundary conditions as the software simulations,two leaf-shaped channels were printed to validate numerical models.Velocity field and temperature differences of the eight proposed leaf-shaped pin fins configurations were discussed by comparison with cylindrical pin fins.Based on the findings of this study,at a Reynolds number of 80,the Leaf B Staggered Array(LBSA)records a maximum temperature that is 0.72 K lower than that of the cylindrical pin fins arrangement.Additionally,the LBSA exhibits a reduction in the friction factor by approximately 33.3%relative to the circular pin fins array under the same R_(e).This implies that the design of LBSA has been optimized to provide better heat dissipation performance while maintaining lower energy consumption.Furthermore,the LBSA demonstrates the most favorable thermal-hydraulic performance index(TPI),which is 1.18 times higher than that of the circular pin fins arrangement at R_(e)=80.The temperature reduction and friction factor reduction of the lobed channel is more pronounced than that of the conventional cooling channel,highlighting its potential to increase heat transfer efficiency and reduce energy consumption in practical applications.

文摘The classical-quantum analogue offers a new platform for exploring extreme dynamic control of mechanical systems.In this work,the concept of the stimulated adiabatic passage of quantum states is extended to mechanical systems for achieving unidirectional energy transportation.The mechanical analog of stimulated adiabatic passage is realized in three mechanical resonators coupled with the time-varying stiffness,which are delicately modulated to mimic the selective population of quantum states.Based on the tight-binding approximation,an analytical model for the classical-quantum analogue of the adiabatic passage effect is established to realize the one-way energy transfer control.Numerical results demonstrate that the vibration energy acquired from an initially excited resonator can be transferred to the target one via an intermediate resonator,while flow in the reverse direction is prohibited due to energy localization in the intermediate resonator.The model holds application potentials in energy suppression and harvesting,and offers promising prospects for unidirectional wave and vibration control.
