A literature search was conducted using the database Web of Science.METHODS: Over the last 15 years, the number of Internet users has increased by 1000%, and at the same time, research on addictive Internet use has proliferated. Internet addiction has not yet been understood very well, and research on its etiology and natural history is still in its infancy. In 2013, the American Psychiatric Association included Internet Gaming Disorder in the appendix of the updated version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders(DSM-5) as condition that requires further research prior to official inclusion in the main manual, with important repercussions for research and treatment. To date, reviews have focused on clinical and treatment studies of Internet addiction and Internet Gaming Disorder. This arguably limits the analysis to a specific diagnosis of a potential disorder that has not yet been officially recognised in the Western world, rather than a comprehensive and inclusive investigation of Internet-use related addictions(including problematic Internet use) more generally. RESULTS: The systematic literature review identified a total of 46 relevant studies. The included studies used clinical samples, and focused on characteristics of treatment seekers and online addiction treatment. Four main types of clinical research studies were identified, namely research involving(1) treatment seeker characteristics;(2) psychopharmacotherapy;(3) psychological therapy; and(4) combined treatment. CONCLUSION: A consensus regarding diagnostic criteria and measures is needed to improve reliability across studies and to develop effective and efficient treatment approaches for treatment seekers.展开更多

Climatic, hydrological and ecological changes in the Arctic are clear evidence of global warming. In 2012 and 2014, the 5th and 6th Chinese National Arctic Research Expeditions undertook studies in the Bering Sea, the Arctic Ocean （including the Chukchi Sea）, and the Norwegian Sea. These studies provided us with a better understanding of the marine biology and ecology in the Arctic and subarctic regions, particularly in the Pacific Arctic sector. Rapid changes observed in the Arctic environment include the shrinking of cold-water masses in the Bering Sea in the summer, and elevated water temperatures promoting phytoplankton blooms, leading to an increase in phytoplankton transferred to higher trophic levels. As a result, the transfer efficiency of organic matter toward the bottom weakened, leading to a reduction in benthic biomass. This is consistent with expectations that the overall carbon and energy flux will ultimately switch from the dominant mode of sea ice-algae-benthos to one of phytoplankton-zooplankton. Influenced by Pacific water inflow, fluvial runoff and melting sea ice, the Chukchi Sea exhibited different responses to various environmental changes. Interactions between water masses led to other interannual ecological shifts. With the increase in sea ice melt and sunlight in the central region of the Arctic Ocean, the relative abundance of heterotrophic bacteria is expected to increase, and play a vital role in the Arctic microbial loop.展开更多

Therefore,a deep research is carried out on solar simulators to test of solar radiation measuring instrument,so that obtain the requirements of performance test of solar radiation measuring instrument. With a combination of the requirements for national regulations of metrological verification and performance test of pyranometer and pyrheliometer,it lays emphasis on the research of design methods for improving radiation uniformity and stability of solar simulators; it also focuses on design methods of multidimensional detection workbench,which achieves different detection of solar radiation. After practical test,solar irradiation is within Φ60 mm; irradiation non-uniformity is better than ±0.8%; instability is better than ±0.72%;rotating angle precision is better than 0.09°. Then,solar simulator is used to carry out pyranometer sensitivity test,pyranometer directional response test,pyranometer tilt response test and non-linearity test for radiation instruments. Test results showthat the solar simulator meets the testing requirements of solar radiation measuring instruments.展开更多

This technology was that the holes for transplanting in well cellar were made with dedicated tools for making well cellar, and the seedlings were placed into the well cellar vertically during transplanting. This new technology integrates heat preservation, management of rising temperature, early transplanting and deep planting. Results showed that the technology of transplanting in well cellar improved the growing environment of crops after transplanting through elevation of temperature and heat preservation, and tempered the dramatic change in the temperatures encountered by transplanted seedlings. This technology significantly reduced labor force requirement by 98.06%, 58.96% and 64.44% in tobacco, maize and pepper, respectively. Transplanting in well cellar without mulching film further lowered the labor force requirement, with decrease by 121.77% and 115.40% in maize and pepper, respectively. In addition, this technology significantly promoted crop growth, reduced the time until marketing for maize and pepper by 11 d and 6 d, respectively, and increased economic benefits by 67.03% and 44.24%, respectively. Thus, the technology of transplanting in well cellar showed strong promise for improving upon existing technologies to provide greater economic returns, particularly in areas where labor force shortage threatens to hamper agricultural production.展开更多

It means that the environment of high organism concentration and low substrate state is useful for the growth of weak floras. With ecological superior nitrification denltrification （ ECOSUNIDE ） technology, high sludge concentration by distributing influent to anaerobic and anoxic zones is carried out, and the ecological superiorities of nitrifiers, denitrifiers, and phosphate accumulating organisms （PAOs） get to be promoted. One of the anaerobic/anoxic/oxic（A/A/O） treatment lines of a sewage treatment plant with ECOSUNIDE technology for further investigation on the nutrient removal efficiency is reformed. The advantages of ECOSUNIDE, such as high efficiency and saving energy, are well demonstrated, even under the condition of low temperature （about 15℃） and carbon-resource （C/N ratio lower than 2. 5 ）. In ECOSUNIDE system, the effluent indexes as biochemical oxygen demand （BOD）, chemical oxygen demand （COD）, and NH3--N reach the Class I-A criteria specified in Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant （ GB18918-2002 ）, and suspended substance （ SS ）, total nitrogen （TN）, and total phosphorus（TP） meet the Class I -B criteria. While the effluent qualities of A/A/O system only reach the secondary discharge standard. Through the comparison on the sludge character of ECOSUNH）E system with A/A/O, more abundant biofacies, darker and more intense zoogloea, more obvious filamentous bacterium, and clearer floes edges in ECOSUNIDE system are found.展开更多

The compromised regeneration of the spinal cord is primarily attributed to damaged neurons, inhibitory molecules, dysfunctional immune response, and glial scarring. Unfortunately, currently, there are no effective treatments available that can fully repair the spinal cord and improve functional outcomes. Nevertheless, numerous pre-clinical approaches have been studied for spinal cord injury recovery, including using biomaterials, cells, drugs, or technological-based strategies. Combinatorial treatments, which target various aspects of spinal cord injury pathophysiology, have been extensively tested in the last decade. These approaches aim to synergistically enhance repair processes by addressing various obstacles faced during spinal cord regeneration. Thus, this review intends to provide scientists and clinicians with an overview of pre-clinical combinatorial approaches that have been developed toward the solution of spinal cord regeneration as well as update the current knowledge about spinal cord injury pathophysiology with an emphasis on the current clinical management.展开更多

文摘To alleviate the restriction of shortages of labor force and technology on agricultural development in China, the technology of crop transplanting in well cellar was proposed. This technology was that the holes for transplanting in well cellar were made with dedicated tools for making well cellar, and the seedlings were placed into the well cellar vertically during transplanting. This new technology integrates heat preservation, management of rising temperature, early transplanting and deep planting. Results showed that the technology of transplanting in well cellar improved the growing environment of crops after transplanting through elevation of temperature and heat preservation, and tempered the dramatic change in the temperatures encountered by transplanted seedlings. This technology significantly reduced labor force requirement by 98.06%, 58.96% and 64.44% in tobacco, maize and pepper, respectively. Transplanting in well cellar without mulching film further lowered the labor force requirement, with decrease by 121.77% and 115.40% in maize and pepper, respectively. In addition, this technology significantly promoted crop growth, reduced the time until marketing for maize and pepper by 11 d and 6 d, respectively, and increased economic benefits by 67.03% and 44.24%, respectively. Thus, the technology of transplanting in well cellar showed strong promise for improving upon existing technologies to provide greater economic returns, particularly in areas where labor force shortage threatens to hamper agricultural production.

文摘The unified dynamic theory reveals the substrate-based nonlinear growth phenomena. It means that the environment of high organism concentration and low substrate state is useful for the growth of weak floras. With ecological superior nitrification denltrification （ ECOSUNIDE ） technology, high sludge concentration by distributing influent to anaerobic and anoxic zones is carried out, and the ecological superiorities of nitrifiers, denitrifiers, and phosphate accumulating organisms （PAOs） get to be promoted. One of the anaerobic/anoxic/oxic（A/A/O） treatment lines of a sewage treatment plant with ECOSUNIDE technology for further investigation on the nutrient removal efficiency is reformed. The advantages of ECOSUNIDE, such as high efficiency and saving energy, are well demonstrated, even under the condition of low temperature （about 15℃） and carbon-resource （C/N ratio lower than 2. 5 ）. In ECOSUNIDE system, the effluent indexes as biochemical oxygen demand （BOD）, chemical oxygen demand （COD）, and NH3--N reach the Class I-A criteria specified in Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant （ GB18918-2002 ）, and suspended substance （ SS ）, total nitrogen （TN）, and total phosphorus（TP） meet the Class I -B criteria. While the effluent qualities of A/A/O system only reach the secondary discharge standard. Through the comparison on the sludge character of ECOSUNH）E system with A/A/O, more abundant biofacies, darker and more intense zoogloea, more obvious filamentous bacterium, and clearer floes edges in ECOSUNIDE system are found.

文摘[Objectives]The use of natural enemies of living insects and their derivatives can effectively avoid the problems of pesticide residues,pest resistance,biodiversity decline,control effect weakening and so on.[Methods]Parasites inject various parasitic factors into hosts to inhibit the development of hosts,adjust the immunity of hosts,interfere with the growth and development of hosts,and reduce the nutrition metabolism of hosts,so as to ensure the growth and development of the offspring.Host pests can escape or conquer the parasitism of parasitic wasps through immune defense system in order to reproduce their own offspring.[Results]Under intense and strong selection pressure,in order to effectively ensure the success rate of parasitism,the adaptive diversity of parasitism strategies of parasitic wasps is finally caused.In the process of evolution and under the pressure of directional selection,the innate immunity and acquired immunity gradually evolve.[Conclusions]In-depth research on parasitic factors of parasitic wasps and their interaction with crop pests immunity and development can not only improve theoretical understanding of insect immunity and development biology,pest biological control and other disciplines,but also be expected to enable the application of some components of parasitic factors to agriculture,medicine and pharmacy.Bactrocera dorsalis is a destructive fruit and vegetable pest.This paper summarized the venom protein of B.dorsalis parasitoids and the immune interaction with hosts,in order to provide theoretical basis for biological control of plant pests by using parasitic natural enemies.

文摘Spinal cord injuries have profound detrimental effects on individuals, regardless of whether they are caused by trauma or non-traumatic events. The compromised regeneration of the spinal cord is primarily attributed to damaged neurons, inhibitory molecules, dysfunctional immune response, and glial scarring. Unfortunately, currently, there are no effective treatments available that can fully repair the spinal cord and improve functional outcomes. Nevertheless, numerous pre-clinical approaches have been studied for spinal cord injury recovery, including using biomaterials, cells, drugs, or technological-based strategies. Combinatorial treatments, which target various aspects of spinal cord injury pathophysiology, have been extensively tested in the last decade. These approaches aim to synergistically enhance repair processes by addressing various obstacles faced during spinal cord regeneration. Thus, this review intends to provide scientists and clinicians with an overview of pre-clinical combinatorial approaches that have been developed toward the solution of spinal cord regeneration as well as update the current knowledge about spinal cord injury pathophysiology with an emphasis on the current clinical management.

文摘Spinal cord injury(SCI)involves an initial traumatic phase,followed by secondary events such as ischemia,increased blood-spinal cord barrier permeability,ionic disruption,glutamate excitotoxicity,and metabolic alterations.A pe rsistent and exagge rated inflammato ry response within the spinal cord accompanies these events(Lima et al.,2022).The complexity and interplay of these mechanisms exacerbate the initial injury,leading to a degenerative process at the injury site.While the initial trauma is unavoidable,the secondary injury begins within minutes and can last for months,creating an optimal window for therapeutic intervention.

文摘Electromagnetic devices have been widely used in the fields of information communication,medical treatment,electrical engineering,and national defense,and their properties are strongly dependent on the constituent electromagnetic materials.Conversely,electromagnetic metamaterials(EMMs),which are artificially engineered with distinctive electromagnetic properties,can overcome the limitations of natural materials owing to their structural advantages.Three-dimensional(3D)printing is the most effec-tive technique for fabricating EMM devices with different geometric parameters and associated proper-ties.However,conventional 3D-printed EMM devices may lack manufacturing flexibility and environmental adaptability to different physical stimuli,such as electric and magnetic fields.Four-dimensional(4D)printing is an ideal technique for schemes to integrate structural design with intelligent materials environmentally adaptive to external fields,for example,the printed components can change shape under electric stimulation.Given the rapid advancements in the EMM field,this paper first reviews typical EMM devices,their design theories,and underlying principles.Subsequently,it presents various EMM structural topologies and manufacturing technologies,emphasizing the feasibility of combining 3D and 4D printing.In addition,we highlight the important applications of EMMs and their future trends and the challenges associated with functional EMMs and additive manufacturing.

文摘BACKGROUND Adenomatous polyposis confers an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer.APC and MUTYH are the major genes investigated in patients suspected of having polyposis.In addition to APC and MUTYH genes,other genes,such as POLE,POLD1,NTHL1,MBD4,MSH3 and MLH3,have recently been associated with polyposis phenotypes,conferring heterogeneity in terms of the clinical,etiological and heritable aspects of patients with polyposis.AIM To investigate the underlying variant landscape in patients with suspected polyposis who lack variants in the APC and MUTYH genes using whole-exome sequencing.METHODS Twenty-seven participants were included in the study and subjected to germline whole-exome sequencing.In addition,their clinical-pathological,personal,and family history data were collected.RESULTS The mean age at diagnosis was 51 years,and most participants had attenuated forms of polyposis(88.9%),with 63.0%diagnosed with a primary tumor,mostly colorectal cancer(76.5%).Among the variants identified,17 were classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic(in 12 participants),including variants in genes involved in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway,such as ST7 L,A1CF,and DKK4,and variants in DNA-repair genes,such as NTHL1,PNKP,and PMS2,as well as a variant found at the FRK gene identified in a patient with classic polyposis at age 19 and with a family history of polyps.CONCLUSION This study identified novel genes potentially associated with polyposis in patients lacking germline pathogenic variants in the APC and MUTYH genes.These findings support the use of next-generation sequencing for screening,expanding the scope of polyposis-related variants beyond these two genes.
文摘Cancer is a major global concern due to its high mortality rate.Tumor immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment.However,low response rates and immune-related complications remain challenges.Extracellular vesicles(EVs),including exosomes,have emerged as promising therapeutic tools for various pathological conditions,especially cancer.Evidence indicates that changes in the quantity and composition of EVs can influence the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment,potentially affecting the effectiveness of immunotherapy.Exploiting EVs for immune sensitization has generated significant clinical interest.This review provides an in-depth understanding of the origin of EVs,their therapeutic applications(such as drug delivery nanoplatforms and cancer immunotherapies,including vaccines),diagnostic potential as tumor biomarkers,ongoing EV-based clinical trials,and the challenges encountered in EV-based cancer immunotherapy.

文摘Power transmission lines are a critical component of the entire power system,and ice accretion incidents caused by various types of power systems can result in immeasurable harm.Currently,network models used for ice detection on power transmission lines require a substantial amount of sample data to support their training,and their drawback is that detection accuracy is significantly affected by the inaccurate annotation among training dataset.Therefore,we propose a transformer-based detection model,structured into two stages to collectively address the impact of inaccurate datasets on model training.In the first stage,a spatial similarity enhancement(SSE)module is designed to leverage spatial information to enhance the construction of the detection framework,thereby improving the accuracy of the detector.In the second stage,a target similarity enhancement(TSE)module is introduced to enhance object-related features,reducing the impact of inaccurate data on model training,thereby expanding global correlation.Additionally,by incorporating a multi-head adaptive attention window(MAAW),spatial information is combined with category information to achieve information interaction.Simultaneously,a quasi-wavelet structure,compatible with deep learning,is employed to highlight subtle features at different scales.Experimental results indicate that the proposed model in this paper outperforms existing mainstream detection models,demonstrating superior performance and stability.
