However, it is unclear how the procedure mediates pain relief, and there are no standardized criteria, such as compression pressure, com- pression time or balloon shape, for the procedure. In this study, percutaneous microballoon compression was performed on the rabbit trigeminal ganglion at a mean inflation pressure of 1,005 + 150 mmHg for 2 or 5 minutes. At 1, 7 and 14 days after percutaneous microballoon compression, the large-diameter myelinated nerves displayed axonal swelling, rupture and demy- elination under the electron microscope. Fragmentation of myelin and formation of digestion chambers were more evident after 5 minutes of compression. Image analyzer results showed that the diameter of trigeminal ganglion cells remained unaltered after compression. These experi- mental findings indicate that a 2-minute period of compression can suppress pain transduction. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that vascular endothelial growth factor expression in the ganglion cells and axons was significantly increased 7 days after trigeminal ganglion compression, however, the changes were similar after 2-minute compression and 5-minute compression. The upregulated expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in the ganglion cells after percu- taneous microballoon compression can promote the repair of the injured nerve. These findings suggest that long-term compression is ideal for patients with recurrent trigeminal neuralgia.展开更多

The method combined spectral feature and multi-spatial texture feature information has been applied in the Huanghe(Yellow) River Estuary coastal wetland.The results show that:(1) Based on testing samples, the DCNN model combined spectral feature and texture feature after K-L transformation appear high classification accuracy, which is up to 99%.(2) The accuracy by using spectral feature with all the texture feature is lower than that using spectral only and combing spectral and texture feature after K-L transformation. The DCNN classification accuracy using spectral feature and texture feature after K-L transformation was up to 99.38%, and the outperformed that of all the texture feature by 4.15%.(3) The classification accuracy of the DCNN method achieves better performance than other methods based on the whole validation image, with an overall accuracy of 84.64% and the Kappa coefficient of 0.80.(4) The developed DCNN model classification algorithm ensured the accuracy of all types is more balanced, and it also greatly improved the accuracy of tidal flat and farmland, while kept the classification accuracy of main types almost invariant compared to the shallow algorithms. The classification accuracy of tidal flat and farmland is up to 79.26% and 56.72%respectively based on the DCNN model. And it improves by about 2.51% and 10.6% compared with that of the other shallow classification methods.展开更多

Here, TiO2(B)/anatase nanowires with interfacial heterostructures were prepared through a three-step synthesis method, including hydrothermal treatment, H+ exchange, and annealing. The phase structures of the nanowires in the bulk and on the surface during the annealing process were monitored by XRD and UV-Raman spectroscopy, respectively. SEM and TEM results indicate that the TiO2(B) nanowires partially collapse and transform into anatase during the annealing process and the heterophase junction structure is formed simultaneously. On the basis of the phase structure together with morphology data, a phase-transformation mechanism was proposed. Photocatalytic activity was evaluated by hydrogen production and pollutant-degradation assays. The optimized structure of the photocatalyst contains 24% TiO2(B) in the bulk and 100% anatase on the surface. The charge-carrier behavior during the photocatalytic process was investigated by photocurrent, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS), and photoluminescence(PL) spectroscopy, which revealed that the heterophase-junction structure in the bulk was responsible for the highly efficient charge separation and transportation, etc.; the anatase on the surface took control of the high surface-reaction activity.展开更多

In this study, percutaneous microballoon compression was performed on the rabbit trigeminal ganglion at a mean inflation pressure of 1,005 + 150 mmHg for 2 or 5 minutes. At 1, 7 and 14 days after percutaneous microballoon compression, the large-diameter myelinated nerves displayed axonal swelling, rupture and demy- elination under the electron microscope. Fragmentation of myelin and formation of digestion chambers were more evident after 5 minutes of compression. Image analyzer results showed that the diameter of trigeminal ganglion cells remained unaltered after compression. These experi- mental findings indicate that a 2-minute period of compression can suppress pain transduction. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that vascular endothelial growth factor expression in the ganglion cells and axons was significantly increased 7 days after trigeminal ganglion compression, however, the changes were similar after 2-minute compression and 5-minute compression. The upregulated expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in the ganglion cells after percu- taneous microballoon compression can promote the repair of the injured nerve. These findings suggest that long-term compression is ideal for patients with recurrent trigeminal neuralgia.

文摘This paper develops a deep learning classification method with fully-connected 8-layers characteristics to classification of coastal wetland based on CHRIS hyperspectral image. The method combined spectral feature and multi-spatial texture feature information has been applied in the Huanghe(Yellow) River Estuary coastal wetland.The results show that:(1) Based on testing samples, the DCNN model combined spectral feature and texture feature after K-L transformation appear high classification accuracy, which is up to 99%.(2) The accuracy by using spectral feature with all the texture feature is lower than that using spectral only and combing spectral and texture feature after K-L transformation. The DCNN classification accuracy using spectral feature and texture feature after K-L transformation was up to 99.38%, and the outperformed that of all the texture feature by 4.15%.(3) The classification accuracy of the DCNN method achieves better performance than other methods based on the whole validation image, with an overall accuracy of 84.64% and the Kappa coefficient of 0.80.(4) The developed DCNN model classification algorithm ensured the accuracy of all types is more balanced, and it also greatly improved the accuracy of tidal flat and farmland, while kept the classification accuracy of main types almost invariant compared to the shallow algorithms. The classification accuracy of tidal flat and farmland is up to 79.26% and 56.72%respectively based on the DCNN model. And it improves by about 2.51% and 10.6% compared with that of the other shallow classification methods.

文摘Heterojunction fabrication is one of the most effective strategies for enhancing the photocatalytic performance of semiconductor photocatalysts. Here, TiO2(B)/anatase nanowires with interfacial heterostructures were prepared through a three-step synthesis method, including hydrothermal treatment, H+ exchange, and annealing. The phase structures of the nanowires in the bulk and on the surface during the annealing process were monitored by XRD and UV-Raman spectroscopy, respectively. SEM and TEM results indicate that the TiO2(B) nanowires partially collapse and transform into anatase during the annealing process and the heterophase junction structure is formed simultaneously. On the basis of the phase structure together with morphology data, a phase-transformation mechanism was proposed. Photocatalytic activity was evaluated by hydrogen production and pollutant-degradation assays. The optimized structure of the photocatalyst contains 24% TiO2(B) in the bulk and 100% anatase on the surface. The charge-carrier behavior during the photocatalytic process was investigated by photocurrent, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS), and photoluminescence(PL) spectroscopy, which revealed that the heterophase-junction structure in the bulk was responsible for the highly efficient charge separation and transportation, etc.; the anatase on the surface took control of the high surface-reaction activity.

文摘Accurate detection of an oil spill is of great significance for rapid response to oil spill accidents.Multispectral images have the advantages of high spatial resolution,short revisit period,and wide imaging width,which is suitable for large-scale oil spill monitoring.However,in wide remote sensing images,the number of oil spill samples is generally far less than that of seawater samples.Moreover,the sea surface state tends to be heterogeneous over a large area,which makes the identification of oil spills more difficult because of various sea conditions and sunglint.To address this problem,we used the F-Score as a measure of the distance between forecast value and true value,proposed the Class-Balanced F loss function(CBF loss function)that comprehensively considers the precision and recall,and rebalances the loss according to the actual sample numbers of various classes.Using the CBF loss function,we constructed convolution neural networks(CBF-CNN)for oil spill detection.Based on the image acquired by the Coastal Zone Imager(CZI)of the Haiyang-1C(HY-1C)satellite in the Andaman Sea(study area 1),we carried out parameter adjustment experiments.In contrast to experiments of different loss functions,the F1-Score of the detection result of oil emulsions is 0.87,which is 0.03–0.07 higher than cross-entropy,hinge,and focal loss functions,and the F1-Score of the detection result of oil slicks is 0.94,which is 0.01–0.09 higher than those three loss functions.In comparison with the experiment of different methods,the F1-Score of CBF-CNN for the detection result of oil emulsions is 0.05–0.12 higher than that of the deep neural networks,supports vector machine and random forests models,and the F1-Score of the detection result of oil slicks is 0.15–0.22 higher than that of the three methods.To verify the applicability of the CBF-CNN model in different observation scenes,we used the image obtained by HY-1C CZI in the Karimata Strait to carry out experiments,which include two studies areas(study area 2 and study area 3).The experimental results show that the F1-Score of CBF-CNN for the detection result of oil emulsions is 0.88,which is 0.16–0.24 higher than that of other methods,and the F1-Score of the detection result of oil slicks is 0.96–0.97,which is 0.06–0.23 higher than that of other methods.Based on all the above experiments,we come to the conclusions that the CBF loss function can restrain the influence of oil spill and seawater sample imbalance on oil spill detection of CNN model thus improving the detection accuracy of oil spills,and our CBF-CNN model is suitable for the detection of oil spills in an area with weak sunglint and can be applied to different scenarios of CZI images.

文摘Spartina alterniflora as an alien invasive plant,poses a serious threat to the ecological functions of the coastal wetland of the Jiaozhou Bay.As of 2019,the distribution area of S.alterniflora in the Jiaozhou Bay has reached more than 500 hm^(2).For this reason,combined with field surveys,remote sensing monitoring of the invasion S.alterniflora in the Jiaozhou Bay has been carried out.To accurately identify S.alterniflora within the Jiaozhou Bay coastal wetland,we used a new method which is an implement of deep convolutional neural network,and by which we got a higher accuracy than the traditional method.Based on distribution of S.alterniflora extracted by the proposed method,the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of S.alterniflora were analyzed.And then combined with environmental factors,the invasion mechanism of S.alterniflora in the Jiaozhou Bay was analyzed in detail.From the monitoring results,it can be seen that S.alterniflora in Jiaozhou Bay is mainly distributed in the beaches near the Yanghe River Estuary and its southern side,the Dagu River Estuary and the Nügukou.Spartina alterniflora first broke out near the Yanghe River Estuary and gradually spread to the tidal flats near the Nügukou.The Dagu River Estuary is dominated by S.anglica,whose area has not changed much over the years,and a small amount of S.alterniflora has invaded later.

文摘The three halogen solids(Cl_(2),Br_(2),and I_(2))have the isostructural diatomic molecular phaseⅠwith a space group of Cmca at ambient pressure.At high pressure,they all go through an intermediate phaseⅤwith incommensurate structures before eventually dissociating into the monatomic phaseⅡ.However,a new structural transition between phaseⅠandⅤwith anomalous bond-length behavior was observed in bromine under pressure,which,so far,has not been confirmed in iodine and chlorine.Here,we perform first-principles calculations for iodine and chlorine.The new structural transition was predicted to be common to all three halogens under pressure.The transition pressures might be systematically underestimated by the imperfect van der Waals correction method,but they follow the order Cl_(2)>Br_(2)>I_(2),which is consistent with other pressure-induced structural transitions such as metallization and the molecular-to-monatomic transition.

文摘The performance of traditional high-resolution direction-of-arrival(DOA)estimation methods is sensitive to the inaccurate knowledge on prior information,including the position of ar-ray elements,array gain and phase,and the mutual coupling between the array elements.Learning-based methods are data-driven and are expected to perform better than their model-based counter-parts,since they are insensitive to the array imperfections.This paper presents a learning-based method for DOA estimation of multiple wideband far-field sources.The processing procedure mainly includes two steps.First,a beamspace preprocessing structure which has the property of fre-quency invariant is applied to the array outputs to perform focusing over a wide bandwidth.In the second step,a hierarchical deep neural network is employed to achieve classification.Different from neural networks which are trained through a huge data set containing different angle combinations,our deep neural network can achieve DOA estimation of multiple sources with a small data set,since the classifiers can be trained in different small subregions.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method performs well both in generalization and imperfections adaptation.

文摘OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to characterize the pharmacokinetics(PK) and pharmacodynamics(PD) profile of cisatracurium in 0-2 years and 2-5 years old children patients with cheilopalatognathus,to find if there are some connections between the different muscle relaxation action and different PK procedure.METHODS 14 children patients were divided into two groups,≤2 years and 2-5 years group,venous samples were taken before injection of a 0.15 mg·kg-1 dose of cisatracurium and then at 2,5,10,30,60,90,and 120 min.Cisatracurium plasma concentrations were determined by ultra-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization/triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer system(UPLC/MS/MS).The degree of neuromuscular block was measured by train of four(TOF) testing.An indirect PK-PD link model with a sigmoid E max model was established using Win Nonlin software.The model were applied to PK and PD data analysis,respectively.RESULTS The TOF monitor parameters showed that cisatracurium works very quickly,the onset time were(2.64±0.93) min and(2.59 ± 0.90) min for ≤2 years and 2-5 years group respectively.Young children ≤2 years have longer muscle blocking duration time(62.5 ± 6.01 min vs 53.86 ± 12.18 min) and slower recovery index(32.14±7.10 min and 27.43±10.63 min) than those children in group of 2-5 years.More children ≤2 years have postoperative complication than that in 2-5 children.PK parameters showed that there were no statistical differences in blood concentration and pharmacokinetic parameters.While the concentration of cisatracurium in muscle site calculated by using PK/PD model were higher and longer for ≤2 year children than that of 2-5 year children.This means that cisatracurium could stay at high concentration for a longer time in younger children' muscle tissue.CONCLUSION As a result young children tend to have postoperative complications related to slower muscle recovery action and increased concentration in skeletal muscle.So more careful observation and monitor are needed for younger children,our study could be of use in clinical practice for the administration of cisatracurium to children patients.
文摘This study examined the influence of semantic and phonological priming on L2 speech planning,as well as the difference between native and non-native speakers of English in terms of lemma activation.Two potential explanations for the contrast between the performance of L2 speakers and native controls were considered.The first of which was that L2 speakers’ phonological forms are activated before selection of syntactic frame occurred,whereas the reverse is true for native speakers.The second explanation posits that the organisation of the speech production procedure is fundamentally similar in native and L2 speakers,and the disparity in performance arises from difference in the levels of activation of stored items.The results of the present experiment suggest that lemma selection is indeed what drives syntactic frame selection.However,lemmas in L2 speakers can be primed through a chain of connections demonstrated as:L2 phonological form →L1 phonological form → L1 lemma.

文摘The propagation of the lightning-radiated electromagnetic field along the real irregular terrain around Yangzhou Direction Finder(DF)site(119°42′E,32°39′N)and Nanjing DF site(118°46′E,32°03′N)of Jiangsu Province in China is estimated.The results show that the rough irregular terrain results in the rapid magnitude attenuation and the increase of the rise-time of the field waveform.For example,for the Yangzhou DF site as the circumference of a radius of 45 km,the root-mean-squared height(RMSH)of the real irregular terrain varies from 7 to 33 m;the extra field attenuation relative to the ideal ground surface ranges from 1%to 11%,and the extra rise-time increment varies from 0.1 to 0.6μs.Therefore,the extracted current peak of lightning return stroke may be underestimated from the remotely measured electromagnetic field,and the error varies along with different azimuths.

文摘Objective We previously reported that mutations in inner mitochondrial membrane peptidase 2-like(Immp2l)increase infarct volume,enhance superoxide production,and suppress mitochondrial respiration after transient cerebral focal ischemia and reperfusion injury.The present study investigated the impact of heterozygous Immp2l mutation on mitochondria function after ischemia and reperfusion injury in mice.Methods Mice were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion for 1 h followed by 0,1,5,and 24 h of reperfusion.The effects of Immp2l^(+/−)on mitochondrial membrane potential,mitochondrial respiratory complex III activity,caspase-3,and apoptosis-inducing factor(AIF)translocation were examined.Results Immp2l^(+/−)increased ischemic brain damage and the number of TUNEL-positive cells compared with wild-type mice.Immp2l^(+/−)led to mitochondrial damage,mitochondrial membrane potential depolarization,mitochondrial respiratory complex III activity suppression,caspase-3 activation,and AIF nuclear translocation.Conclusion The adverse impact of Immp2l^(+/−)on the brain after ischemia and reperfusion might be related to mitochondrial damage that involves depolarization of the mitochondrial membrane potential,inhibition of the mitochondrial respiratory complex III,and activation of mitochondria-mediated cell death pathways.These results suggest that patients with stroke carrying Immp2l^(+/−)might have worse and more severe infarcts,followed by a worse prognosis than those without Immp2l mutations.
