It characterizes the process of infectious disease transmission among residents between communities through the SE2IHR model considering two types of infectors. By depicting a more fine-grained social structure and combining further simulation experiments, the study validates the crucial role of various prevention and control measures implemented by communities as primary executors in controlling the epidemic. Research shows that the geographical boundaries of communities and the social interaction patterns of residents have a significant impact on the spread of the epidemic, where early detection, isolation and treatment strategies at community level are essential for controlling the spread of the epidemic. In addition, the study explores the collaborative governance model and institutional advantages of communities and residents in epidemic prevention and control.展开更多

Due to the variable reservoir formation morphology, the drilling trajectory often deviates from the high-quality reservoir,which increases the risk of fracturing. Accurately recognizing low-amplitude structures plays a crucial role in guiding horizontal wells. However, existing methods have low recognition accuracy, and are difficult to meet actual production demand. In order to improve the drilling encounter rate of high-quality reservoirs, we propose a method for fine recognition of low-amplitude structures based on the non-subsampled contourlet transform(NSCT). Firstly, the seismic structural data are analyzed at multiple scales and directions using the NSCT and decomposed into low-frequency and high-frequency structural components. Then, the signal of each component is reconstructed to eliminate the low-frequency background of the structure, highlight the structure and texture information, and recognize the low-amplitude structure from it. Finally, we combined the drilled horizontal wells to verify the low-amplitude structural recognition results. Taking a study area in the west Sichuan Basin block as an example, we demonstrate the fine identification of low-amplitude structures based on NSCT. By combining the variation characteristics of logging curves, such as organic carbon content(TOC), natural gamma value(GR), etc., the real structure type is verified and determined, and the false structures in the recognition results are checked. The proposed method can provide reliable information on low-amplitude structures for optimizing the trajectory of horizontal wells. Compared with identification methods based on traditional wavelet transform and curvelet transform, NSCT enhances the local features of low-amplitude structures and achieves finer mapping of low-amplitude structures, showing promise for application.展开更多

文摘Recent advancements in two-dimensional van der Waals moir´e materials have unveiled the captivating landscape of moir´e physics.In twisted bilayer graphene(TBG)at‘magic angles’,strong electronic correlations give rise to a diverse array of exotic physical phenomena,including correlated insulating states,superconductivity,magnetism,topological phases,and the quantum anomalous Hall(QAH)effect.Notably,the QAH effect demonstrates substantial promise for applications in electronic and quantum computing devices with low power consumption.This article focuses on the latest developments surrounding the QAH effect in magic-angle TBG.It provides a comprehensive analysis of magnetism and topology—two crucial factors in engineering the QAH effect within magic-angle TBG.Additionally,it offers a detailed overview of the experimental realization of the QAH effect in moir´e superlattices.Furthermore,this review highlights the underlying mechanisms driving these exotic phases in moir´e materials,contributing to a deeper understanding of strongly interacting quantum systems and facilitating the manipulation of new material properties to achieve novel quantum states.
文摘BACKGROUND Esophageal cancer(EC)is one of the most common malignancies worldwide,and lymph node(LN)metastasis remains one of the leading causes of EC recurrence.Metabolic disorders critically affect cancer progression,and lipid levels are closely associated with the occurrence of EC and several other tumor types.This study analyzed pretreatment lipid levels to determine their association with LN metastasis.AIM To dissect the possible mechanisms underlying LN metastasis and clarify the prognostic role of lipid profiles in EC.METHODS Serum lipid levels and clinicopathological information were retrospectively collected from 294 patients,and risk factors for LN metastasis were confirmed using a logistic regression model.Latent factors were explored using information from publicly accessible databases and immunofluorescence and immunohistochemical staining techniques.RESULTS High serum levels of low-density lipoprotein(LDL)cholesterol promote LN metastasis in EC,while high-density lipoprotein cholesterol has the opposite role.Information of a public database revealed that LDL receptors LRP5 and LRP6 are highly expressed in ECs,and LRP6 overexpression positively correlated with the infiltration of B lymphocytes and a poor prognosis.Immunofluorescence and immunohistochemical staining revealed that the expression of LRP6 and infiltrated B lymphocytes in patients with≥1 regional LN metastasis,containing N1-3(N+group)were significantly higher than those in the N0 group.LRP6 was also highly expressed in the B lymphocytes of the N+group.There was no difference in CXCL13 expression between the N+and N0 groups.However,CXCR5 expression was significantly higher in the N0 group than in the N+group.CONCLUSION High serum LDL levels can promote LN metastasis in EC,and the mechanisms may be related to LRP6 expression and the infiltration of B lymphocytes.

文摘Fe(Ⅱ)is an essential trace element for anaerobic ammonium oxidation bacteria(AAOB)metabolism,and can improve the nitrogen removal efficiency of anaerobic ammonia oxidation(Anammox).Here we oper-ated two identical expanded granular sludge bed(EGSB)reactors at low temperature(15±3℃)for 154 days.Reactor 1(R_(1))received additional Fe(Ⅱ)(0.12 mmol/L)during the late startup phase,while reactor 0(R_(0))served as the control and did not receive extra Fe(Ⅱ).Nitrogen removal in R_(1)became stable at 55 d of operation,ten days earlier than R_(0).The nitrogen removal rate(NRR)of R_(1) was 1.64 kg N m^(−3)d^(−1)and its TN removal rate was as high as 89%,while R_(0)only reached 75%.The addition of Fe(Ⅱ)was fur-ther beneficial to aggregation and stability of the granular sludge,and the used sludge of both reactors showed enrichment for AAOB populations compared to the inoculum,for instance,increased abundance of Candidatus-Kuenenia and in particular of Candidatus-Brocadia(from 0.17%to 10.10%in R_(0)and 7.79%in R_(1)).Diverse microbial species and complex microbial network structure in R_(1)compared to R_(0)promoted the coupled denitrogenation by Anammox,dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium(DNRA),nitrate-dependent Fe oxidation(NDFO),and ferric ammonium oxidation(Feammox).In addition,the microbial community in R_(1)was more resistant to short-term low temperature(2-7℃)starvation,illustrating a further positive effect of adding Fe(Ⅱ)during the startup phase of an Anammox reactor.

文摘A large number of communities are impacted annually by the increasing frequency of tornado hazards resulting in damage to the infrastructure as well as disruption of community functions.The effect of the hazard geometry(center and angle of tornado path as well as the tornado width)is studied herein on how it influences the recovery of physical and social systems within the community.Given that pre-disaster preparedness including mitigation strategies(e.g.,retrofits)and policies(e.g.,insurance)is crucial for increasing the resilience of the community and facilitating a faster recovery process,in this study,the impact of various mitigation strategies and policies on the recovery trajectory and resilience of a typical US community subjected to a tornado is investigated considering different sources of uncertainties.The virtual testbed of Centerville is selected in this paper and is modeled by adopting the Agent-based modeling(ABM)approach which is a powerful tool for conducting community resilience analysis that simulates the behavior of different types of agents and their interactions to capture their interdependencies.The results are presented in the form of recovery time series as well as calculated resilience indices for various community systems(lifeline networks,schools,healthcare,businesses,and households).The results of this study can help deepen our understanding of how to efficiently expedite the recovery process of a community.

文摘Selective molecular recognition in water is routine for bioreceptors,but remains challenging for synthetic hosts.This is principally because noncovalent interactions are usually less efficient in aqueous environments.By mimicking the cavity feature of bioreceptors,Prof.Wei Jiang proposed and clarified the concept of“endo-functionalized cavity”.Through situating polar binding sites into a deep hydrophobic cavity,we designed and synthesized several macrocyclic hosts,among which amide naphthotubes are the most representative.The hosts can selectively recognize various polar molecules including organic micropollutants,drug molecules,and chiral molecules in water by employing the hydrophobic effect and shielded hydrogen bonding.In addition,these biomimetic hosts have been applied in spectroscopic analysis,adsorptive separation and self-assembly.In this review,we provide an overview of recent advances on amide naphthotubes with special emphasis on the efforts of Jiang's group.We are convinced that these biomimetic macrocycles will make further contributions to supramolecular chemistry and beyond.

文摘Nature reserves play a significant role in providing ecosystem services and are key sites for biodiversity conservation.The Tianchi Bogda Peak Natural Reserve(TBPNR),located in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region,China,is an important ecological barrier area in the temperate arid zone.The evaluation of its important ecosystem services is of great significance to improve the management level and ecological protection efficiency of the reserve.In the present study,we assessed the spatiotemporal variations of four ecosystem services(including net primary productivity(NPP),water yield,soil conservation,and habitat quality)in the TBPNR from 2000 to 2020 based on the environmental and social data using the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Trade-offs(InVEST)model.In addition,the coldspot and hotspot areas of ecosystem services were identified by hotspot analysis,and the trade-off and synergistic relationships between ecosystem services were analyzed using factor analysis in a geographic detector.During the study period,NPP and soil conservation values in the reserve increased by 48.20%and 25.56%,respectively;conversely,water yield decreased by 16.56%,and there was no significant change in habitat quality.Spatially,both NPP and habitat quality values were higher in the northern part and lower in the southern part,whereas water yield showed an opposite trend.Correlation analysis revealed that NPP showed a synergistic relationship with habitat quality and soil conservation,and exhibited a trade-off relationship with water yield.Water yield and habitat quality also had a trade-off relationship.NPP and habitat quality were affected by annual average temperature and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index(NDVI),respectively,while water yield and soil conservation were more affected by digital elevation model(DEM).Therefore,attention should be paid to the spatial distribution and dynamics of trade-off and synergistic relationships between ecosystem services in future ecological management.The findings of the present study provide a reference that could facilitate the sustainable utilization of ecosystem services in the typical fragile areas of Northwest China.

文摘Artificial macrocycle with high binding selectivity in water is often challenging but urgently needed in various research and application areas.Herein,we report a new water-soluble biomimetic tetralactam macrocycle and realize the ultra-high selectivity to nucleosides over corresponding monophosphate nucleotides by rational modification.The introduction of charged groups at the periphery of endofunctionalized cavity makes the selectivity(guanosine to guanosine 5-monophosphate)increase remarkably from 100 to 1119.Based on the ultra-high selectivity of biomimetic tetralactam macrocycle,the sensitive CD73 enzyme activity assay was then achieved through product-selective fluorescence indicator displacement assay.Furthermore,the capability of the proposed method for inhibitor screening was successfully displayed.

文摘We construct a dual-layer coupled complex network of communities and residents to represent the interconnected risk transmission network between communities and the disease transmission network among residents. It characterizes the process of infectious disease transmission among residents between communities through the SE2IHR model considering two types of infectors. By depicting a more fine-grained social structure and combining further simulation experiments, the study validates the crucial role of various prevention and control measures implemented by communities as primary executors in controlling the epidemic. Research shows that the geographical boundaries of communities and the social interaction patterns of residents have a significant impact on the spread of the epidemic, where early detection, isolation and treatment strategies at community level are essential for controlling the spread of the epidemic. In addition, the study explores the collaborative governance model and institutional advantages of communities and residents in epidemic prevention and control.

文摘Gauge length influences the biomechanical properties of herbaceous roots such as tensile resistance,tensile strength and Young’s modulus.However,the extent to which and how these biomechanical properties of herbaceous roots are influenced remain unknown.To better understand the behavior of roots in tension under different conditions and to illustrate these behaviors,uniaxial tensile tests were conducted on the Poa araratica roots as the gauge length increased from 20 mm to 80 mm.Subsequently,ANOVA was used to test the impact of the significant influences of gauge length on the biomechanical properties,nonlinear regression was applied to establish the variation in the biomechanical properties with gauge length to answer the question of the extent to which the biomechanical properties are influenced,and Weibull models were subsequently introduced to illustrate how the biomechanical properties are influenced by gauge length.The results reveal that(1)the variation in biomechanical properties with root diameter depends on both the gauge length and the properties themselves;(2)the gauge length significantly impacts most of the biomechanical properties;(3)the tensile resistance,tensile strength,and tensile strain at cracks decrease as the gauge length increases,with values decreasing by 20%-300%,while Young’s modulus exhibits the opposite trend,with a corresponding increase of 30%;and(4)the Weibull distribution is suitable for describing the probability distribution of these biomechanical properties;the Weibull modulus for both tensile resistance and tensile strain at cracks linearly decrease with gauge length,whereas those for tensile strength and Young’s modulus exhibit the opposite trend.The tensile resistance,tensile strength,and tensile strain at the cracks linearly decrease with increasing gauge length,while the tensile strength and Young’s modulus linearly increase with increasing gauge length.

文摘Currently, horizontal well fracturing is indispensable for shale gas development. Due to the variable reservoir formation morphology, the drilling trajectory often deviates from the high-quality reservoir,which increases the risk of fracturing. Accurately recognizing low-amplitude structures plays a crucial role in guiding horizontal wells. However, existing methods have low recognition accuracy, and are difficult to meet actual production demand. In order to improve the drilling encounter rate of high-quality reservoirs, we propose a method for fine recognition of low-amplitude structures based on the non-subsampled contourlet transform(NSCT). Firstly, the seismic structural data are analyzed at multiple scales and directions using the NSCT and decomposed into low-frequency and high-frequency structural components. Then, the signal of each component is reconstructed to eliminate the low-frequency background of the structure, highlight the structure and texture information, and recognize the low-amplitude structure from it. Finally, we combined the drilled horizontal wells to verify the low-amplitude structural recognition results. Taking a study area in the west Sichuan Basin block as an example, we demonstrate the fine identification of low-amplitude structures based on NSCT. By combining the variation characteristics of logging curves, such as organic carbon content(TOC), natural gamma value(GR), etc., the real structure type is verified and determined, and the false structures in the recognition results are checked. The proposed method can provide reliable information on low-amplitude structures for optimizing the trajectory of horizontal wells. Compared with identification methods based on traditional wavelet transform and curvelet transform, NSCT enhances the local features of low-amplitude structures and achieves finer mapping of low-amplitude structures, showing promise for application.

文摘Glyphosate-based herbicides(GBHs)are used for weeding purposes in orchards and rubber plantations,as well as in the cultivation of tea mulberry and genetically modified crops.In recent years,GBH has become the most widely used organic phosphorus pesticide.Glyphosate and its metabolites can easily chelate metals,resulting in the formation of persistent residues that are frequently detected in natural environments.Recently,an increasing number of past studies have indicated that glyphosate exposure may be a risk factor for mental disease,liver,and tumorigenesis[1,2].Therefore,the widespread use of GBHs poses potential public health risks.
