First, according to the concrete stress-strain curve and the statistical relationship between residual strain and cumulative strain, the calculation method of static equivalent strain and residual strain concrete based on unloading elastic modulus and the method for estimating the strength of concrete after damage were proposed. The detailed steps of field test and analysis and the practical damage indicators of residual strain were given. Then, the evaluation method of existing stress and strain of Reinforced Concrete Bridge under dead load and the concept of “equivalent dead load bending moment” were put forward. On this basis, the paper analyzed the root cause of the decrease of bearing capacity of Reinforced Concrete Bridge after fatigue damage, and pointed out that the equivalent strain or residual strain of reinforced concrete increases under the fatigue effect, which led to the decreasing of actual live moment and deformation performance while the ultimate load-carrying capacity remained constant or very little decrease. The evaluation method of structure residual capacity was given, and through comparative analysis of eight T reinforced concrete beams that had been in service for 35 years with the static failure tests, the effectiveness of the method was verified.展开更多

METHODS: RNA interference was used to inhibit the expression of EDIL3 in human LECs in vitro. The morphology of cells was observed using an inverted microscope. Cell proliferation was assessed using Ed U kit. Cell migration was investigated using Transwell chamber and EMT of LECs was assessed using confocal microscope and Western blotting. The transforming growth factor β(TGFβ) pathway was investigated using Western blotting. RESULTS: The data showed that silencing EDIL3 expression changed LECs morphology and suppressed LECs proliferation(P〈0.05) and migration(P〈0.01). Furthermore, the result of Western blotting showed that EDIL3 depletion reduced the expression of α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)(P〈0.001) and vimentin(P〈0.01), while increased the expression of E-cadherin(P〈0.001). EDIL3 depletion could suppress the phosphorylation of Smad2(P〈0.01) and Smad3(P〈0.01) and the activation of exracellular signal regulated kinase(ERK)(P〈0.05). CONCLUSION: The findings indicate that EDIL3 might participate in the proliferation and EMT in LECs via TGFβ pathway and may be a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of posterior capsule opacification.展开更多

METHODS:Two investigators independently searched the MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, as well as references of included studies to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared two or more surgical approaches for acute colonic obstruction. Summary risk ratios (RR) and 95% CI for colonic stenting and emergent surgery were calculated. RESULTS:Eight studies met the selection criteria, involving 444 patients, of whom 219 underwent SEMS and 225 underwent emergent surgery. Seven studies reported difference of the one-stage stoma rates between the two groups (RR, 0.60; 95% CI:0.48-0.76; P < 0.0001). Only three RCTs described the follow-up stoma rates, which showed no significant difference between the two groups (RR, 0.80; 95% CI:0.59-1.08; P = 0.14). Difference was not significant in the mortality between the two groups (RR, 0.91; 95% CI:0.50-1.66; P = 0.77), but there was significant difference (RR, 0.57; 95% CI:0.44-0.74; P < 0.0001) in the overall morbidity. There were no significant differences between the two groups in the anastomotic leak rate (RR, 0.60; 95% CI: 0.28-1.28; P = 0.19), occurrence of abscesses, including peristomal abscess, intraperitoneal abscess and parietal abscess (RR, 0.83; 95% CI:0.36-1.95; P = 0.68), and other abdominal complications (RR: 0.67; 95% CI: 0.40-1.12; P = 0.13). CONCLUSION:SEMS is not obviously more advantageous than emergent surgery for patients with acute left-sided malignant colonic obstruction.展开更多

A total of 48 and 64 QTLs were identified in 2004 and 2005, respectively. The contribution of each QTL to the phenotypic variation ranged from 4.0% to 43.7%. Most QTLs co-localized, forming 29 QTL clusters on the chromosomes with three major ones detected in both years, which were mapped on chromosomes 1, 7 and 9, respectively. The two QTL clusters for amino acid content, qAa1 and qAa7, influenced almost all the traits with the allele from Zhenshan 97B, and the third QTL cluster for amino acid content, qAa9, increased the lysine content with the allele from Delong 208. A wide coincidence was found between the QTL detected under this study and the loci involved in amino acid metabolism pathways in nitrogen assimilation and transport, or protein biosynthesis. The results would facilitate the identification of candidate genes and could be used in marker-assisted selection for the favorable allele in rice quality improvement.展开更多

To further improve the comprehensive economic benefits of seawater desalination, the desalination load can be combined with renewable energy sources such as solar energy, wind energy, and ocean energy or with the power grid to ensure its effective regulation. Utilizing energy internet(EI) technology, energy balance demand of the regional power grid, and coordinated control between coastal multi-source multi-load and regional distribution network with desalination load is reviewed herein. Several key technologies, including coordinated control of coastal multi-source multi-load system with seawater desalination load, flexible interaction between seawater desalination and regional distribution network, and combined control of coastal multi-source multi-load storage system with seawater desalination load, are discussed in detail.

As T cells, which are important components of themucosal immune system, interact with gut microbiota and maintain intestinalhomeostasis, they may be involved in the process of intestinal barrier dysfunction.P2X7 receptor (P2X7R), a member of the P2X receptors family, mediates the effectsof extracellular adenosine triphosphate and is expressed by most innate or adaptiveimmune cells, including T cells. Current evidence has demonstrated thatP2X7R is involved in inflammation and mediates the survival and differentiationof T lymphocytes, indicating its potential role in the regulation of T cell function.In this review, we summarize the available research about the regulatory role andmechanism of P2X7R on the intestinal mucosa-derived T cells in the setting ofintestinal barrier dysfunction.展开更多

We first study interferences between nodes in cognitive networks and establish the channel allocation model with interference constraints. Then we focus on the use of evolutionary algorithms to solve the optimal allocation distribution. We further consider that the search time can be reduced by means of parallel computing, and then a parallel algorithm based APO is proposed. In contrast with the existing algorithms, we decompose the allocation vector into a number of sub-vectors and search for optimal allocation distribution of sub-vector in parallel. In order to speed up converged rate and improve converged value, some typical operations of evolutionary algorithms are modified by two novel operators. Finally, simulation results show that the proposed algorithm drastically outperform other optimal solutions in term of the network utilization.展开更多

In order to speed up converged rate and improve converged value, some typical operations of evolutionary algorithms are modified by two novel operators. Finally, simulation results show that the proposed algorithm drastically outperform other optimal solutions in term of the network utilization.
文摘仔猪健康是养猪生产效益的重要保证。哺乳仔猪在断奶时面临着环境和营养物质来源改变的双重压力,表现出以生长率和营养物质吸收率降低、肠道功能紊乱及敏感性增加、腹泻和高死亡率为主要特征的断奶应激综合征(Aumaitre和Corring,1978)。由断奶应激导致的仔猪胃肠道功能失调往往给养猪业带来巨大的经济损失(Lallès et al.,2007)。随着我国农业农村部第194号公告的出台,饲料药物添加剂抗生素类已于2020年7月1日正式退出我国畜牧业的历史舞台。

文摘Metal-air batteries(MABs)have attracted considerable attention as a novel energy technology that can alleviate the severe energy crisis and environmental pollution.Two primary processes,including oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)and oxygen evolution reaction(OER)occur on the air cathode and dominate the battery performance during battery charging and discharging.Recently,metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)and covalent-organic frameworks(COFs)emerge as promising cathode catalysts due to their structure and composition superiority.The unique characteristics of MOFs and COFs contribute to improved performance.This review mainly summarizes the recent applications of MOFs and COFs in a series of MABs,mainly including lithium-and zinc-air batteries.Additionally,some critical issues are emphasized regarding MOFs and COFs used in other MABs limited progress,their fabrication and alternatives to potential problems.
