Methods This is an open, cohort, prospective study. Out of 493 screened patients, we selected 279hypertensive, obese individuals without severe concomitant diseases： 75 patients without sleep-disordered breathing （non-SDB group）, and204 patients with OSA （OSA group）. At baseline, all patients underwent examination, including ECG, Holter ECG monitoring, and sleepstudy. During follow-up （on 3, 5, 7 and 10th years; phone calls once per 6 months）, information about new events, changes in therapy and lifestyle was collected, diagnostic procedures were performed. As the endpoints, we registered significant heart rhythm and conduction disordersas following： atrial fibrillation （AF）, ventricular tachycardia, atrioventricular block （AV） 2-3 degree, sinoatrial block, significant sinus pauses（〉 2000 ms）, and the required pacemaker implantation. Results The median follow-up was 108 （67.5-120） months. The frequency of heartrhythm disorders was higher in OSA patients （29 cases, X^2= 5.5; P = 0.019） compared to the non-SDB patients （three cases; OR： 3.92, 95%CI： 1.16-13.29）. AF was registered in 15 patients （n = 12 in OSA group; P = 0.77）. Heart conduction disturbance developed in 16 patients,without an association with the rate of coronary artery disease onset. Regression analysis showed that only hypertension duration was anindependent predictor olAF （OR： 1.10, 95% CI： 1.04-1.16; P = 0.001）. In case of heart conduction disturbances, apnea duration was thestrongest predictor （P = 0.002）. Conclusions Hypertensive obese patients with OSA demonstrate 4-fold higher incidence of heart rhythmand conduction disturbances than subjects without SDB. Hypertension duration is an independent predictor for AF development, while sleepapneaJhypopnea duration is the main factor for heart conduction disorders onset in hypertensive obese patients with OSA.展开更多

The electrons are initially uniformly and sparsely arranged on the outer surface of nucleus. Then, by taking into account the nucleus-electron interaction (attractive and repulsive) and the mutual electron-electron repulsions, and by a simple step-by-step nonlinear static analysis program, all the electrons are found to equilibrate on the outer surface of the same sphere, which is concentric and larger than nucleus. In a second stage, starting from an equilibrium sphere of electrons, one of the electrons is subjected to gradual forced removal, radially and outwards with respect to nucleus. Within each removal step, the produced work increment is determined and the increments are summed. When no more significant attraction is exerted by nucleus to removed electron, the total work gives the Ionization Energy. After removing of single electron, the remaining electrons fall on a lower shell, that is, they equilibrate on the outer surface of a smaller concentric sphere. For nucleus-electron interaction, an L-J (Lennard-Jones) type curve, attractive and repulsive, is adopted. When the parameter of this curve is n > 1.0, the Ionization Energy exhibits an upper bound. As parameter n increases from 1.0 up to 2.0, the attractive potential of L-J curve is gradually weakened. The proposed model is applied on Argon. It is observed that, as the number of electrons increases, the radius of equilibrium sphere increases, too, whereas the attractive nucleus-electron potential is reduced;thus the Ionization Energy is reduced, too. Particularly, as the number of electrons and the radius of equilibrium sphere exceed some critical values, the above two last quantities exhibit abrupt falls. A regular polyhedron is revealed, which can accommodate Elements up to atomic number Z = 146, that is 28 more than Z = 118 of existing last Element, as guide for initial locations of electrons in the above first program.展开更多

Lysine dendrimers and polymer brushes are used for drug and other (e.g., DNA, peptides, and polysaccharides) molecules delivery to different target cells. It is known that they could penetrate blood brain barrier. Since short lysine brush is nontoxic, a system containing of such brush and 8 oppositely charged Semax peptides was studied. It was obtained that stable complexes consisting of brush and peptides formed and structures of these complexes were investigated. Such complex can be used in future for delivery of Semax peptides to brain since these peptides have significant antioxidant, antihypoxic and neuroprotective effects.展开更多

文摘Digital signature schemes are often built based on the difficulty of the discrete logarithm problems,of the problem of factor analysis,of the problem of finding the roots modulo of large primes or a combination of the difficult problems mentioned above.In this paper,we use the new difficult problem,which is to find the wth root in the finite ground field GF(p)to build representative collective signature schemes,but the chosen modulo p has a special structure distinct p=Nt_(0)t_(1)t_(2)+1,where N is an even number and t_(0),t_(1),t_(2) are prime numbers of equal magnitude,about 80 bits.The characteristics of the proposed scheme are:i)The private key of each signer consists of 2 components(K_(1),K_(2)),randomly selected,but the public key has only one component(Y)calculated by the formula Y=K_(w)^(1)_(1) K^(w)_(2)^(2);w_(1)=t_(0)t_(1) and w_(2)=t_(0)t_(2);and ii)The generated signature consists of a set of 3 components(e,S_(1),S_(2)).We use the technique of hiding the signer’s public key Y,which is the coefficientλgenerated by the group nanager,in the process of forming the group signature and representative collective signature to enhance the privacy of all members of the signing collective.

文摘A solvable model of lateral line of a fish based on a wave equation with additional boundary conditions on a set of isolated points is proposed.Within the framework of this model it is shown that the ratio of pressures on lateral lines on different fish flanks,as well as the cross section of sound scattering on both the lines,strongly depends on angles of incidence of incoming sound waves.The strong angular dependence of the pressure ratio seems to be sufficient for the fish to determine the directions from which the sound is coming.

文摘The impact of various vitamin D3(VD3)doses(1.0,2.5,or 5 mg/kg,s.c.)in mitigating the negative consequences of chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS)was investigated.Adult female rats with long-term estrogen deficiency were assessed using the sucrose preference test(SPT),the elevated plus-maze(EPM),the light/dark test(LDT),and the open-field test(OFT)to measure anhedonia-like and anxiety-like behavior.The corticosterone(CS)and adrenocorticotrophic hormone(ACTH)concentrations in blood serum and the brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)expression in the hippocampus of long-term ovariectomized(OVX)rats were measured by ELISA kits and/or western blotting.Treatment with VD3(5.0 mg/kg),similarly to fluoxetine(10.0 mg/kg),significantly reduced the anhedonia profile in the SPT and anxiety-like behavior in the EPM and LDT,and CS and ACTH levels in blood serum.It also elevated BDNF levels in the hippocampus of long-term OVX/CUMS compared to OVX/CUMS/solvent rats.Thus,these findings suggest that VD3(5.0 mg/kg)administration might attenuate the anxiety-like profile in long-term OVX adult rats subjected to the CUMS.This might occur via activation of the BDNF signaling pathway in the hippocampus and via restoration of CS and ACTH levels in blood serum.

文摘Forested areas are extremely vulnerable to disasters leading to environmental destruction.Forest Fire is one among them which requires immediate attention.There are lot of works done by authors where Wireless Sensors and IoT have been used for forest fire monitoring.So,towards monitoring the forest fire and managing the energy efficiently in IoT,Energy Efficient Routing Protocol for Low power lossy networks(E-RPL)was developed.There were challenges about the scalability of the network resulting in a large end-to-end delay and less packet delivery which led to the development of Aggregator-based Energy Efficient RPL with Data Compression(CAAERPL).Though CAA-ERPL proved effective in terms of reduced packet delivery,less energy consumption,and increased packet delivery ratio for varying number of nodes,there is still challenge in the selection of aggregator which is based purely on probability percentage of nodes.There has been research work where fuzzy logic been employed for Mobile Ad-hoc Routing,RPL routing and cluster head selection in Wireless Sensor.There has been no work where fuzzy logic is employed for aggregator selection in Energy Efficient RPL.So accordingly,we here have proposed Fuzzy Based Aggregator selection in Energy-efficient RPL for region thereby forming DODAG for communicating to Fog/Edge.We here have developed fuzzy inference rules for selecting the aggregator based on strength which takes residual power,Node degree,and Expected Transmission Count(ETX)as input metrics.The Fuzzy Aggregator Energy Efficient RPL(FA-ERPL)based on fuzzy inference rules were analysed against E-RPL in terms of scalability(First and Half Node die),Energy Consumption,and aggregator node energy deviation.From the analysis,it was found that FA-ERPL performed better than E-RPL.These were simulated using MATLAB and results.

文摘The introduction of biodegradable implant materials has significantly improved the postoperative subjective feelings of patients within the past few decades,among which magnesium alloy is widely considered a favorable choice as its appropriate biodegradability and evident antibacterial activity.Here,we reveal a semisolid rheo-formed Mg–Zn–Sr alloy ureteral implant that displayed suitable degradability and biocompatibility in a pig model.Refined non-dendritic microstructure was observed in the rheo-formed alloy,which led to ca.47%increase in ultimate tensile strength(from 195.0 MPa to 288.1 MPa)and more homogeneous degradation process compared with the untreated alloy.No post-interventional inflammation or pathological changes of the test animals were observed during the implantation period,and the corrosion rate(0.22±0.04 mm·y^(-1))perfectly fitted the clinical ureteral stent indwelling time.The urine bacteria numbers decreased from 88±13 CFU·mL^(-1)at 7 weeks post operation to 59±8 CFU·mL^(-1)at 14 weeks post operation,which confirmed the evident antibacterial activity of the alloy.Our study demonstrates that the Mg–Zn–Sr alloy is clinically safe for urinary system,enabling its efficacious use as ureteral implant materials.
文摘Churn prediction is a common task for machine learning applications in business.In this paper,this task is adapted for solving problem of low efficiency of massive open online courses(only 5%of all the students finish their course).The approach is presented on course“Methods and algorithms of the graph theory”held on national platform of online education in Russia.This paper includes all the steps to build an intelligent system to predict students who are active during the course,but not likely to finish it.The first part consists of constructing the right sample for prediction,EDA and choosing the most appropriate week of the course to make predictions on.The second part is about choosing the right metric and building models.Also,approach with using ensembles like stacking is proposed to increase the accuracy of predictions.As a result,a general approach to build a churn prediction model for online course is reviewed.This approach can be used for making the process of online education adaptive and intelligent for a separate student.
文摘For investigation of equilibrium conditions of electrons in an atom, and Ionization Energies of Elements, a simplified deterministic static model is proposed. The electrons are initially uniformly and sparsely arranged on the outer surface of nucleus. Then, by taking into account the nucleus-electron interaction (attractive and repulsive) and the mutual electron-electron repulsions, and by a simple step-by-step nonlinear static analysis program, all the electrons are found to equilibrate on the outer surface of the same sphere, which is concentric and larger than nucleus. In a second stage, starting from an equilibrium sphere of electrons, one of the electrons is subjected to gradual forced removal, radially and outwards with respect to nucleus. Within each removal step, the produced work increment is determined and the increments are summed. When no more significant attraction is exerted by nucleus to removed electron, the total work gives the Ionization Energy. After removing of single electron, the remaining electrons fall on a lower shell, that is, they equilibrate on the outer surface of a smaller concentric sphere. For nucleus-electron interaction, an L-J (Lennard-Jones) type curve, attractive and repulsive, is adopted. When the parameter of this curve is n > 1.0, the Ionization Energy exhibits an upper bound. As parameter n increases from 1.0 up to 2.0, the attractive potential of L-J curve is gradually weakened. The proposed model is applied on Argon. It is observed that, as the number of electrons increases, the radius of equilibrium sphere increases, too, whereas the attractive nucleus-electron potential is reduced;thus the Ionization Energy is reduced, too. Particularly, as the number of electrons and the radius of equilibrium sphere exceed some critical values, the above two last quantities exhibit abrupt falls. A regular polyhedron is revealed, which can accommodate Elements up to atomic number Z = 146, that is 28 more than Z = 118 of existing last Element, as guide for initial locations of electrons in the above first program.
文摘The possibility of complex formation by short lysine brush and therapeutic Semax peptides was investigated using molecular dynamics method. Lysine dendrimers and polymer brushes are used for drug and other (e.g., DNA, peptides, and polysaccharides) molecules delivery to different target cells. It is known that they could penetrate blood brain barrier. Since short lysine brush is nontoxic, a system containing of such brush and 8 oppositely charged Semax peptides was studied. It was obtained that stable complexes consisting of brush and peptides formed and structures of these complexes were investigated. Such complex can be used in future for delivery of Semax peptides to brain since these peptides have significant antioxidant, antihypoxic and neuroprotective effects.

文摘BACKGROUND Necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC)is a multifactorial disease that predominantly affects premature neonates.Intestinal dysbiosis plays a critical role in NEC pathogenesis in premature neonates.The main risk factor for NEC in term infants is mesenteric hypoperfusion associated with ductaldependent congenital heart disease(CHD)that eventually leads to intestinal ischemia.The incidence of NEC in neonates with critical CHD is 6.8%-13%.However,the role of the intestinal microbiome in NEC pathogenesis in infants with ductal-dependent CHD remains unclear.CASE SUMMARY A male term neonate with right atrial isomerism underwent modified Blalock-Taussig shunt placement on the 14^(th)day of life and had persistent mesenteric hypoperfusion after surgery.The patient had episodes of NEC stageⅡA on the 1^(st)and 28^(th)days after cardiac surgery.Fecal microbial composition was analyzed before and after cardiac surgery by sequencing region V4 of the 16S rRNA gene.Before surgery,species belonging to genera Veillonella and Clostridia and class Gammaproteobacteria were detected,Bifidobacteriaceae showed a low abundance.The first NEC episode was associated with postoperative hemodynamic instability,intestinal ischemiareperfusion injury during cardiopulmonary bypass,and a high abundance of Clostridium paraputrificum(Clostridium sensu stricto I)(56.1%).Antibacterial therapy after the first NEC episode resulted in increased abundance of Gammaproteobacteria,decreased abundance of Firmicutes,and low alpha diversity.These changes in the microbial composition promoted the growth of Clostridium sensu strictoⅠ(72.0%)before the second NEC episode.CONCLUSION A high abundance of Clostridium sensu strictoⅠand mesenteric hypoperfusion may have contributed to NEC in the present case.
