Considering that multiple access channel (MAC) schemes are able to offer high efficiency in bandwidth usage and consume less energy than the parallel access channel (PAC), the MAC scheme is introduced into the underwater target detection field. The model of underwater distributed detection fusion based on MAC schemes is established. A new method for detection fusion of MAC based on deflection coefficient maximization (DCM) and Neyman-Pearson (NP) rule is proposed. Under the power constraint of local sensors, this paper uses the DCM theory to derive the optimal weight coefficients and offsets. The closed-form expressions of detection probability and false alarm probability for fusion systems are obtained. The optimal detection performance of fusion systems is analyzed and deeply researched. Both the theory analysis and simulation experiments indicate that the proposed method could improve the detection performance and decrease the error probability effectively under power constraints of local sensors and low signal to noise ratio.展开更多

First, generators that can be operated in isolated state are identified. Second, different schemes are proposed for generator mode switching from on-grid to off-grid state through comparison and mechanism analysis. Third, the time domain model and frequency domain model of the isolated generator governor are constructed to respectively estimate the primary frequency performance and small signal stability. Parameter sets that satisfy the primary frequency performance and small signal stability are acquired as optimal values of governor control parameters. Finally, the measurement-based parameters of the governor are identified and validated using simulations to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the method.展开更多

文摘Acid-catalyzed tandem reactions were established by employing a novel class of 2-arylglycerol derivative,5-aryl-1,3-dioxan-5-ol,as versatile 1,3-biselectrophile.In the reactions,5-aryl-1,3-dioxan-5-ol works like atropaldehydes or 2-aryl malondialdehydes,and can react with 2-naphthols andβ-keto amides,allowing the synthesis of 4H-chromenes and 5-aryl-2-pyridinones.High yields,good functional group tolerance,broad substrate scope and simple reaction operation make this protocol attractive.

文摘Cancer cells are abnormal cells that can reproduce and regenerate rapidly.They are characterized by unlimited proliferation,transformation and migration,and can destroy normal cells.To meet the needs for cell proliferation and migration,tumor cells acquire molecular materials and energy through unusual metabolic pathways as their metabolism is more vigorous than that of normal cells.Multiple carcinogenic signaling pathways eventually converge to regulate three major metabolic pathways in tumor cells,including glucose,lipid,and amino acid metabolism.The distinct metabolic signatures of cancer cells reflect that metabolic changes are indispensable for the genesis and development of tumor cells.In this review,we report the unique metabolic alterations in tumor cells which occur through various signaling axes,and present various modalities available for cancer diagnosis and clinical therapy.We further provide suggestions for the development of anti-tumor therapeutic drugs.

文摘OBJECTIVE:To compare the curative effects of heat-sensitive moxibustion with conventional drugs on chronic persistent asthma and seek a valuable therapy to replaceWestern Medicine.METHODS:The participants in this multi-center,randomized,and controlled study were randomly divided into two groups:group A(n=144),treated with heat-sensitive moxibustion(50 sessions)and group B(n=144),treated with Seretide(salmeterol50μg/fluticasone 250μg,twice a day).The scores of asthma control test(ACT),forced expiratory volume in 1 second(FEV1),peak expiratory flow(PEF),and attack frequency were measured after 15,30,60,and 90 days of treatment.Patients followed up3 and 6 months after treatment.RESULTS:There was a significant difference(P=0.0002)in the ACT score and lung function between the two groups after 3 months of treatment and(P=0.000 03)during the follow-up visits.In addition,heat-sensitive moxibustion reduced attack frequency in the period from inclusion to the6-month follow-up visit.CONCLUSION:This study shows that heat-sensitive moxibustion may have a comparable curative effect toSeretide(salmeterol/fluticasone)on asthma.

文摘A facile copper-based catalytic system has been developed to enable efficient cyclization of methylketoximes and alkynals.This protocol provides a viable entry to synthetically and pharmaceutically useful 2-acylpyrroles with a broad range of compatible functionalities.Mechanistically,a key acyl migration is probably involved that leads to the formation of N-acyl pyrroles or otherwise NH pyrroles by further hydrolysis.More importantly,the present reaction system also gives an opportunity to realize three-component pyrrole assembly by simple addition of carboxylic acid.
