| 1 | Incidence and prevalence of moyamoya disease in urban China: a nationwide retrospective cohort study显示文摘Background and objective Moyamoya disease(MMD)is an increasingly recognised cause of stroke,mainly described in East Asia.China is the largest nation in Asia,but few studies reported the epidemiology of MMD,especially at a national level.We aimed to estimate the incidence and prevalence of MMD in China.Methods We performed a population-based study using data from the national databases of Urban Basic Medical Insurance between 2013 and 2016,covering approximately 0.50 billion individuals.MMD cases were identified by diagnostic code(International Classification of Diseases,10th Revision I67.5)or related diagnostic text.Results A total of 1987 MMD patients(mean age 44.45±14.30 years,female-to male ratio 1.12)were identified,representing a national crude incidence of 0.59(95%CI:0.49 to 0.68)and a prevalence of 1.01(95%CI:0.81 to 1.21)per 100000 person-years in 2016.Rates were higher in females than in males for the incidence(0.66 vs 0.52)and prevalence(1.05 vs 0.90).And the age-specific rates showed a bimodal distribution,with the highest peak in middle-aged group and the second peak in child group.Conclusions Our results confirm that MMD is relatively common in East Asians,but the rates in China were lower than those in other East Asian countries such as Japan and Korea.The unique epidemiological features,including a relatively weak female predominance and a shift in the highest peak of incidence from children to adults,revealed new sight into MMD.Further research is expected to explore the potential pathogenesis of MMD. | Yixin Sun Guoyu Zhou Jingnan Feng Lu Chen Guozhen Liu Jinxi Wang Qingliang Wang Junyou Yu Xiwang Yang Zheng Yang Pei Gao Shengfeng Wang Siyan Zhan | 2021 | Stroke & Vascular Neurology2021,6,4: | 4 |
| 2 | Accurate machine learning models based on small dataset of energetic materials through spatial matrix featurization methods显示文摘A large database is desired for machine learning(ML) technology to make accurate predictions of materials physicochemical properties based on their molecular structure.When a large database is not available,the development of proper featurization method based on physicochemical nature of target proprieties can improve the predictive power of ML models with a smaller database.In this work,we show that two new featurization methods,volume occupation spatial matrix and heat contribution spatial matrix,can improve the accuracy in predicting energetic materials' crystal density(ρ_(crystal)) and solid phase enthalpy of formation(H_(f,solid)) using a database containing 451 energetic molecules.Their mean absolute errors are reduced from 0.048 g/cm~3 and 24.67 kcal/mol to 0.035 g/cm~3 and 9.66 kcal/mol,respectively.By leave-one-out-cross-validation,the newly developed ML models can be used to determine the performance of most kinds of energetic materials except cubanes.Our ML models are applied to predict ρ_(crystal) and H_(f,solid) of CHON-based molecules of the 150 million sized PubChem database,and screened out 56 candidates with competitive detonation performance and reasonable chemical structures.With further improvement in future,spatial matrices have the potential of becoming multifunctional ML simulation tools that could provide even better predictions in wider fields of materials science. | Chao Chen Danyang Liu Siyan Deng Lixiang Zhong Serene Hay Yee Chan Shuzhou Li Huey Hoon Hng | 2021 | Journal of Energy Chemistry2021,30,12: | 4 |
| 3 | Optimization of Callus Induction Conditions from Immature Embryos in Maize and Plant Regeneration显示文摘This research uses the immature embryos of inbred maize lines(GSH9901,Hi01,Hi02,and Chang 7-2)as receptor materials to establish the callus induction system.These inbred lines provide the receptor materials for the genetic regeneration of maize and the verification of the genetic functions of maize.The factor experiment and orthogonal experiments were used to investigate the impacts of different genotypes,immature embryo size,shield orientation,2,4-D concentration,proline concentration,and folic acid concentration on the induction rate of embryogenic callus tissue.A sensitivity experiment testing glyphosate(Bar)and an antibiotic(Cefotaxime sodium)were also conducted.The results indicate that the immature embryos of inbred maize line GSH9901 were the most effective for callus tissue induction,and the immature embryos with a length of 1.6-2.0 mm produce the best result.The upward shield face is more successful for the formation of induced callus.Using orthogonal analysis,we found that the optimal combination for the induction system was A_(3)(2,4-D concentration 0.25 mg mL^(-1)),B_(1)C_(3)(proline concentration 0.8 mg mL^(-1)),and D 2(folate Concentration 0.5 mg mL^(-1))and the induction rate reached 84%.We found that cold storage at 4℃ for 1 d is more conducive for the formation of embryogenic callus than the other treatments tested.The sensitivity experiment for callus tissue screening revealed the critical concentration of glyphosate to be 10 mg ml^(-1),and the critical concentration of antibiotic is 250 mg ml^(-1).Using this combination of glyphosate and antibiotic resulted in regenerated plants.This study established the optimal conditions for immature embryo callus tissue induction in maize. | Peng Jiao Ruiqi Ma Zhuo Qi Zhenzhong Jiang Siyan Liu Jing Qu Shuyan Guan Yiyong Ma | 2020 | Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany2020,89,1: | 3 |
| 4 | Active Vaccine Safety Surveillance: Global Trends and Challenges in China显示文摘Importance.The great success in vaccine-preventable diseases has been accompanied by vaccine safety concerns.This has caused vaccine hesitancy to be the top 10 in threats to global health.The comprehensive understanding of adverse events following immunization should be entirely based on clinical trials and postapproval surveillance.It has increasingly been recognized worldwide that the active surveillance of vaccine safety should be an essential part of immunization programs due to its complementary advantages to passive surveillance and clinical trials.Highlights.In the present study,the framework of vaccine safety surveillance was summarized to illustrate the importance of active surveillance and address vaccine hesitancy or safety concerns.Then,the global progress of active surveillance systems was reviewed,mainly focusing on population-based or hospital-based active surveillance.With these successful paradigms,the practical and reliable ways to create robust and similar systems in China were discussed and presented from the perspective of available databases,methodology challenges,policy supports,and ethical considerations.Conclusion.In the inevitable trend of the global vaccine safety ecosystem,the establishment of an active surveillance system for vaccine safety in China is urgent and feasible.This process can be accelerated with the consensus and cooperation of regulatory departments,research institutions,and data owners. | Zhike Liu Ruogu Meng Yu Yang Keli Li Zundong Yin Jingtian Ren Chuanyong Shen Zijian Feng Siyan Zhan | 2021 | Health Data Science2021,,1: | 2 |
| 5 | Efficacious selective separation of U(Ⅵ) over Mo(Ⅵ) using novel 2,9-diamide-1,10-phenanthroline ligands: Liquid-liquid extraction and coordination chemistry显示文摘Uranium and molybdenum are important strategic elements. The production of ^(99)Mo and the hydrometallurgical process of uranium ore face difficult problems of separation of uranium and molybdenum.In this study, the four phenanthroline diamide ligands were synthesized, and extraction and stripping experiments were performed under different conditions to evaluate the potential application of these ligands for separation of U(Ⅵ) over Mo(Ⅵ). With the growth of alkyl chain, the solubility of ligands could be greatly improved, and the separation effect of U(Ⅵ) over Mo(Ⅵ) gradually increased. The SF_(U/Mo) were around 10,000 at 4 mol/L HNO3. Three stripping agents were tested with the stripping efficiency of Na_(2)CO_(3)(5%) > H_(2)O > HNO_(3)(0.01 mol/L). The stripping percentages of the three stripping agents were all close to unity, indicating that the ligands had the potential to be recycled. The chemical stoichiometry of U(Ⅵ) complexes with ligands was evaluated as 1:1 using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry,ultraviolet visible spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The consistency between theoretical calculation and experimental results further explains the coordination mechanism. | Taoyuan Xiu Simei Zhang Peng Ren Siyan Liu Shuai Wang Hamza Shehzad Jingyang Wang Meng Zhang Guoan Ye Caishan Jiao Qunyan Wu Liyong Yuan Zhifang Chai Weiqun Shi | 2023 | Chinese Chemical Letters2023,34,11: | 1 |
| 6 | Formation Mechanism and Occurrence Law of Pod Shattering in Soybean:A Review显示文摘Seed shattering refers to the phenomenon in which the pods split along the abdominal and back sutures before the crop is received,so that the seeds are spread.Seed shattering is vital to the reproduction of their offspring in wild plants,but it is also the main cause of crop yield loss reason.Pod-explosion resistance is a complex process of physical and physiological and biochemical reactions.Soybean seed shattering phenomenon is widespread,which severely restricts the development of soybean industry.Seed shattering(pod cracking or fruit dropping)is essential for the reproduction of its offspring in wild plants,but it is also the main cause of crop yield loss.This article analyzes the morphology and structure of pods related to seed shattering from the morphology of pods.On the basis of the regularity of the occurrence of seed shattering and the summary of phenotypic index identification methods,physiologically introduced the regulation mechanism of key enzymes and endogenous hormones on seed shattering.The localization,labeling and cloning of seed shattering genes are introduced in molecular biology.The study focused on reviewing the latest advances in the research on soybean seed shattering characteristics,and discussed with the research results of related crops.Finally,the research and application of soybean seed shattering resistance were prospected for several aspects. | Jinfeng Liu Yuzhe Zhang Yushi Jiang Hongji Sun Ruijie Duan Jing Qu Dan Yao Siyan Liu Shuyan Guan | 2022 | Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany2022,91,7: | 1 |
| 7 | Nitrogen and atomic Fe dual-doped porous carbon nanocubes as superior electrocatalysts for acidic H2-O_(2) PEMFC and alkaline Zn-air battery显示文摘Air cathodes with high electrocatalytic activity are vital for developing H2/O_(2) proton exchange membrane fuel cells(PEMFC)and Zn-air batteries.However,the state-of-the-art air cathodes suffer from either limited catalytic activity or high cost,which thus hinder their applications.Herein,we designed ZIF-8 derived nitrogen and atomic iron dual-doped porous carbon nanocubes as high-quality catalysts for ORR,through a novel gas-doping approach.The porous carbon nanocubic architecture and abundant Fe-Nxactive species endow ZIF-8 derived single atomic iron catalyst(PCN-A@Fe SA)with superior catalytic activity,and surpass Pt/C and a majority of the reported catalysts.Both XAS and DFT calculations suggest that Fe2+N4 moieties are the main active centers that are favorable for oxygen affinity and OH*intermediate desorption,which can result in promising catalytic performance.Most importantly,PCNA@Fe SA can achieve power density of 514 m W cm^(-2) as cathodic catalyst in a PEMFC and discharge peak power density of 185 m W cm^(-2) in an alkaline Zn-air battery.The outstanding performance is derived from both the high specific surface area and high-density of iron single atom in nitrogen doped nanocubic carbon matrix. | Xiudong Shi Zonghua Pu Bin Chi Mingrui Liu Siyan Yu Long Zheng Lijun Yang Ting Shu Shijun Liao | 2021 | Journal of Energy Chemistry2021,30,8: | 1 |
| 8 | Cloning of the Soybean sHSP26 Gene and Analysis of Its Drought Resistance显示文摘Exploring the molecular mechanism of soybean response to drought stress,providing a basis for genetic improvement and breeding of heat-resistant varieties,relying on the transcriptome sequencing data of unpollinated ovary at the seven-leaf stage of soybean Jinong 18(JN18)and Jinong 18 mutant(JB18)soybeans,using reverse transcription,one gene in the sHSP family was cloned using PCR(RT-PCR)and it was named sHSP26.In this experiment,the soybean sHSP26 gene was successfully cloned by RT-PCR,the protein encoded by the sHSP26 gene was analyzed by bioinformatics,and the sHSP26 gene overexpression vector and CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing vector were constructed.The positive plants were derived from Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of soybean cotyledon nodes,and T2 plants were identified through conventional PCR,QT-PCR,and Southern blot hybridization.Finally,through the determination of drought-related physiological and biochemical indicators and the analysis of agronomic traits,further research on gene function was conducted.The results indicated that the overexpression vector plant GmsHSP26 gene expression increased.After stress,the SOD and POD activities,and the PRO content of the transgenic overexpression plants increased,while the MDA content decreased.The reverse was true for soybean plants with genetically modified editing vectors.A survey of agronomic traits indicated that the fourpod ratio and yield per plant of the transgenic overexpression plants were higher than those of the control and transgenic editing vector soybean plants.It indicates that the expression of the sHSP26 gene can enhance drought resistance and soybean yield.The soybean sHSP26 gene cloning and its functional verification have not yet been reported.This is the first report where PCR amplification of soybean sHSP26 genes and gene expression vector were applied.It lays the foundation for creating new drought-resistant transgenic soybean lines through genetic engineering technology and is essential for improving soybean yield and quality. | Siyan Liu Jinfeng Liu Yuzhe Zhang Yushi Jiang Shaowang Hu Andi Shi Qiyao Cong Shuyan Guan Jing Qu Yao Dan | 2022 | Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany2022,91,7: | 1 |
| 9 | HIF1α epigenetically repressed macrophages via CRISPR/Cas9-EZH2 system for enhanced cancer immunotherapy显示文摘Immune suppressive microenvironment in tumor emerges as the main obstacle for cancer immunotherapy.In this study,we identified that HIF1α was activated in the tumor associated macrophages and acted as an important factor for the immune suppressive microenvironment.Epigenetically silencing of Hif1αvia histone H3 methylation in the promoter region was achieved by CRISPR/dCas9-EZH2 system,in which histone H3 methylase EZH2 was recruited to the promoter region specifically.The Hif1αsilenced macrophage,namely HERM(Hif1αEpigenetically Repressed Macrophage)manifested as inheritable tumor suppressing phenotype.In the subcutaneous B16-F10 melanoma syngeneic model,intratumoral injection of HERMs reprogrammed the immune suppressive microenvironment to the active one,reducing tumor burden and prolonging overall survival.Additionally,HERMs therapy remarkably inhibited tumor angiogenesis.Together,our study has not only identified a promising cellular and molecular target for reverting immune suppressive microenvironment,but also provided a potent strategy for reprogramming tumor microenvironment via epigenetically reprogrammed macrophages. | Yan Dong Siyan Zhang Xiaotong Gao Dandan Yin Tingting Wang Zhelong Li Zhuo Wan Mengying Wei Ying Luo Guodong Yang Li Liu | 2021 | Bioactive Materials2021,6,9: | 1 |
| 10 | Enabling dendrite-free charging for lithium batteries based on transport-reaction competition mechanism in CHAIN framework显示文摘Worldwide trends in mobile electrification will skyrocket demands for lithium-based battery production,driven by the popularity of electric vehicles.However,both lithium metal batteries and lithium ion batteries face severe safety issues due to dendrite nucleation and growth process.Li deposition is significantly influenced by interfacial factors and charging conditions.In this paper,an electrochemical model considering the internal and external factors is proposed based on Monte Carlo method.The influence of internal solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)porosity,thickness and the external conditions on dendrite growth process is systematically described.The simulation results support that the three factors investigated in this model could synergistically regulate the dendrite growth process.Three competition mechanisms are proposed to tailor lithium deposition for Li-based batteries and numerical solutions for variation pattern of dendrite growth with time are fitted.A three-step process describing kinetic process of lithium deposition is proposed.To achieve dendrite-free charging process,charging strategies and emerging materials design should be considered,including physicochemical materials engineering,artificial SEI,and design for dynamic safety boundary.This work could contribute to the foundation for insights of Li deposition mechanism,which is promising to provide guidelines for next-generation high-energy-density and safe batteries in CHAIN framework. | Lisheng Zhang Siyan Chen Wentao Wang Hanqing Yu Haicheng Xie Huizhi Wang Shichun Yang Cheng Zhang Xinhua Liu | 2022 | Journal of Energy Chemistry2022,,12: | 1 |
| 11 | Chlorophyllase is transcriptionally regulated by CsMYB308/CsDOF3 in young leaves of tea plant显示文摘Chlorophyll contributes to tea coloration, which is an important factor in tea quality. Chlorophyll metabolism is induced by light, but the transcriptional regulation responsible for light-induced chlorophyll metabolism is largely unknown in tea leaves. Here, we characterized a chlorophyllase1 gene CsCLH1 from young tea leaves and showed it is essential for chlorophyll metabolism, using transient overexpression and silencing in tea leaves and ectopic overexpression in Arabidopsis. CsCLH1 was significantly induced by high light. The DOF protein CsDOF3, an upstream direct regulator of CsCLH1, was also identified. Acting as a nuclear-localized transcriptional factor, CsDOF3 responded for light and repressed CsCLH1 transcription and increased chlorophyll content by directly binding to the AAAG cis-element in the CsCLH1 promoter. CsDOF3was able to physically interact with the R2R3-MYB transcription factor CsMYB308 and interfere with transcriptional activity of CsCLH1. In addition, CsMYB308 binds to the CsCLH1 promoter to enhance CsCLH1 expression and decrease chlorophyll content. CsMYB308 and CsDOF3 act as an antagonistic complex to regulate CsCLH1 transcription and chlorophyll in young leaves. Collectively, the study adds to the understanding of the transcriptional regulation of chlorophyll in tea leaves in response to light and provides a basis for improving the appearance of tea. | Weimin Liu Siyan Liu Kaiyue Zhang Mingwei Xie Haiwei Sun Xiaoqin Huang Lixia Zhang Min Li | 2023 | Horticultural Plant Journal2023,9,6: | 0 |
| 12 | Character Identification of an Early Flowering Mutant显示文摘The concept of gene-function-genetic trait was introduced to explore the effects of early flowering on the growth and development of maize at the jointing stage and to obtain early flowering mutants using ethyl methanesulfonate mutagenesis.First,we studied gene expression,phytohormones,and lignin content to explore the physiological peculiarities of the early flowering mutant.Then we analyzed the genetic features of the mutants during the jointing stage by measuring physiological and biochemical indices of drought tolerance.The results showed that the photosynthetic rate of the mutant was significantly higher than that of the control and the rate of accumulation of dry matter was rapid.In addition,the lignin content increased while drought resistance diminished.Therefore,we concluded that early flowering leads to faster overall growth and development. | Zhenzhong Jiang Peng Jiao Zhuo Qi He Zhao Jing Qu Siyan Liu Dan Yao Piwu Wang Shuyan Guan Yiyong Ma | 2021 | Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany2021,90,2: | 0 |

| 14 | Cloning and Drought Resistance Analysis of Soybean GmHsps_p23-like Gene显示文摘Soybean(Glycine max(L.)Merr.)is an important cultivated crop,which requires much water during its growth,and drought seriously affects soybean yields.Studies have shown that the expression of small heat shock proteins can enhance drought resistance,cold resistance and salt resistance of plants.In this experiment,soybean GmHsps_p23-like gene was successfully cloned by RT-PCR,the protein encoded by the GmHsps_p23-like gene was subjected to bioinformatics analysis,and the pCAMBIA3301-GmHsps_p23-like overexpression vector and pCBSG015-GmHsps_p23-like gene editing vector were constructed.Agrobacterium-mediated method was used to transform soybeans to obtain positive plants.RT-PCR detection,rehydration experiment and drought resistance physiological and biochemical index detection were performed on the T2 generation positive transgenic soybean plants identified by PCR and Southern hybridization.The results showed that the overexpression vector plant GmHsps_p23-like gene expression increased.After rehydration,the transgenic overexpression plants returned to normal growth,and the damage to the plants was low.After drought stress,the SOD and POD activities and the PRO content of the transgenic overexpression plants increased,while the MDA content decreased.The reverse was true for soybean plants with genetically modified editing vectors.The drought resistance of the overexpressed soybeans under drought stress was higher than that of the control group,and had a stronger drought resistance.It showed that the expression of soybean GmHsps_p23-like gene can improve the drought resistance of soybean.The cloning and functional verification of soybean GmHsps_p23-like gene had not been reported yet.This is the first time that PCR technology has been used to amplify the soybean GmHsps_p23-like gene and construct an expression vector for this gene.This research has laid the foundation for transgenic technology to improve plant drought resistance and cultivate new drought-resistant transgenic soybean varieties. | Yuzhe Zhang Guanglong Li Shaowang Hu Jinfeng Liu Yushi Jiang Siyan Liu Shuyan Guan Jing Qu Dan Yao Andi Shi Yixuan Liu | 2022 | Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany2022,91,6: | 0 |
| 15 | Polymodal Functionality of C. elegans OLL Neurons in Mechanosensation and Thermosensation显示文摘Sensory modalities are important for survival but the molecular mechanisms remain challenging due to the polymodal functionality of sensory neurons. Here, we report the C. elegans outer labial lateral(OLL) sensilla sensory neurons respond to touch and cold. Mechanosensation of OLL neurons resulted in cell-autonomous mechanically-evoked Ca~(2+) transients and rapidly-adapting mechanoreceptor currents with a very short latency.Mechanotransduction of OLL neurons might be carried by a novel Na~+ conductance channel, which is insensitive to amiloride. The bona fide mechano-gated Na~+ -selective degenerin/epithelial Na~+ channels, TRP-4, TMC, and Piezo proteins are not involved in this mechanosensation.Interestingly, OLL neurons also mediated cold but not warm responses in a cell-autonomous manner. We further showed that the cold response of OLL neurons is not mediated by the cold receptor TRPA-1 or the temperaturesensitive glutamate receptor GLR-3. Thus, we propose the polymodal functionality of OLL neurons in mechanosensation and cold sensation. | Yuedan Fan Wenjuan Zou Jia Liu Umar Al-Sheikh Hankui Cheng Duo Duan Du Chen Siyan Liu Luyi Chen Jilei Xu Firdosh Ruhomutally Lijun Kang | 2021 | Neuroscience Bulletin2021,37,5: | 0 |
| 16 | Application of deep learning for informatics aided design of electrode materials in metal-ion batteries显示文摘To develop emerging electrode materials and improve the performances of batteries,the machine learning techniques can provide insights to discover,design and develop battery new materials in high-throughput way.In this paper,two deep learning models are developed and trained with two feature groups extracted from the Materials Project datasets to predict the battery electrochemical performances including average voltage,specific capacity and specific energy.The deep learning models are trained with the multilayer perceptron as the core.The Bayesian optimization and Monte Carlo methods are applied to improve the prediction accuracy of models.Based on 10 types of ion batteries,the correlation coefficients are maintained above 0.9 compared to DFT calculation results and the mean absolute error of the prediction results for voltages of two models can reach 0.41 V and 0.20 V,respectively.The electrochemical performance prediction times for the two trained models on thousands of batteries are only 72.9 ms and 75.7 ms.Besides,the two deep learning models are applied to approach the screening of emerging electrode materials for sodium-ion and potassium-ion batteries.This work can contribute to a high-throughput computational method to accelerate the rational and fast materials discovery and design. | Bin Ma Lisheng Zhang Wentao Wang Hanqing Yu Xianbin Yang Siyan Chen Huizhi Wang Xinhua Liu | 2024 | Green Energy & Environment2024,9,5: | 0 |
| 17 | Hybrid model enabling highly efficient follicular segmentation in thyroid cytopathological whole slide image显示文摘Background The prevalence of thyroid cancer is growing rapidly.Early and precise diagnosis is critical in thy-roid cancer caring.An automatic thyroid cancer diagnostic tool can be valuable to achieve early detection and diagnostic consistency.Only the follicular areas in the sample contain useful information to the thyroid cancer diagnosis based on fine needle aspiration(FNA).This study aimed to develop a highly efficient accurate method for follicular cell areas segmentation(FCAS)of thyroid cytopathological whole slide images(WSIs).Methods A total of 96 cell samples from July 2017 to July 2018 were collected in one hospital in Beijing,China.Forty-three WSIs were selected and manually labeled,including 17 cases of papillary thyroid carci-noma sample and 26 cases of benign sample.Six thousand and nine hundred cropped typical image patches(available on http://gffzz188fe103f8f1460asxnfvv59bk9of6cqn.ffgz.tsg.suse.edu.cn/bupt-ai-cz/Hybrid-Model-Enabling-Highly-Efficient-Follicular-Segmentation)of 1024×1024 pixels from 13 large WSIs were used for patch-level model training and testing and all of the 13 large WSIs were papillary thyroid carcinoma samples.Thirty testing WSIs with an average size 36,217×29,400(from 10,240×10,240 to 81,920×61,440)were used to test the effectiveness of the hybrid model.Based on the traditional semantic segmentation model deeplabv3,we constructed a hybrid segmentation architecture by adding a classification branch into the segmentation scheme to improve efficiency.Accuracy was used to measure the performance of the classification model;pixel accuracy(pAcc),mean accuracy(mAcc),mean intersection over union(mIoU),and frequency weighted intersection over union(fwIoU)were used to measure the performance of the segmentation model,respectively.Results Using this method,up to 93%WSI segmentation time was reduced by skipping the colloidal areas and the blank background areas.The average processing time of 30 WSI was 49.49 s.On the patch dataset,this hybrid model might reach pAcc=98.65%,mAcc=85.60%,mIoU=79.61%,and fwIoU=97.54%.On the WSI dataset,this model might reach pAcc=99.30%,mAcc=68.94%,mIoU=58.21%,and fwIoU=99.50%.Conclusion The proposed hybrid method might significantly improve previous solutions and achieve the superior performance of efficiency and accuracy. | Chuang Zhu Siyan Tao Huang Chen Minzhen Li Ying Wang Jun Liu Mulan Jin | 2021 | Intelligent Medicine2021,1,2: | 0 |
| 18 | Neuro-11:a new questionnaire for the assessment of somatic symptom disorder in general hospitals显示文摘Background Somatic symptom disorder(SSD)commonly presents in general hospital settings,posing challenges for healthcare professionals lacking specialised psychiatric training.The Neuro-11 Neurosis Scale(Neuro-11)offers promise in screening and evaluating psychosomatic symptoms,comprising 11 concise items across three dimensions:somatic symptoms,negative emotions and adverse events.Prior research has validated the scale’s reliability,validity and theoretical framework in somatoform disorders,indicating its potential as a valuable tool for SSD screening in general hospitals.Aims This study aimed to establish the reliability,validity and threshold of the Neuro-11 by comparing it with standard questionnaires commonly used in general hospitals for assessing SSD.Through this comparative analysis,we aimed to validate the effectiveness and precision of the Neuro-11,enhancing its utility in clinical settings.Methods Between November 2020 and December 2021,data were collected from 731 patients receiving outpatient and inpatient care at Shenzhen People’s Hospital in China for various physical discomforts.The patients completed multiple questionnaires,including the Neuro-11,Short Form 36 Health Survey,Patient Health Questionnaire 15 items,Hamilton Anxiety Scale and Hamilton Depression Scale.Psychiatry-trained clinicians conducted structured interviews and clinical examinations to establish a gold standard diagnosis of SSD.Results The Neuro-11 demonstrated strong content reliability and structural consistency,correlating significantly with internationally recognised and widely used questionnaires.Despite its brevity,the Neuro-11 exhibited significant correlations with other questionnaires.A test-retest analysis yielded a correlation coefficient of 1.00,Spearman-Brown coefficient of 0.64 and Cronbach’sαcoefficient of 0.72,indicating robust content reliability and internal consistency.Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the validity of the three-dimensional structure(p<0.001,comparative fit index=0.94,Tucker-Lewis index=0.92,root mean square error of approximation=0.06,standardised root mean square residual=0.04).The threshold of the Neuro-11 is set at 10 points based on the maximum Youden’s index from the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis.In terms of diagnostic efficacy,the Neuro-11 has an area under the curve of 0.67. | Silin Zeng Yian Yu Shan Lu Sirui Zhang Xiaolin Su Ge Dang Ying Liu Zhili Cai Siyan Chen Yitao He Xin Jiang Chanjuan Chen Lei Yuan Peng Xie Jianqing Shi Qingshan Geng Rafael H Llinas Yi Guo | 2023 | General Psychiatry2023,36,4: | 0 |
| 19 | Resilience and functional redundancy of methanogenic digestion microbiome safeguard recovery of methanogenesis activity under the stress induced by microplastics显示文摘Microplastics and nanoplastics are emerging pollutants that substantially influence biological element cycling in natural ecosystems.Plastics are also prevalent in sewage,and they accumulate in waste-activated sludge(WAS).However,the impacts of plastics on the methanogenic digestion of WAS and the underpinning microbiome remain underexplored,particularly during long-term operation.In this study,we found that short-term exposure to individual microplastics and nanoplastics(polyethylene,polyvinyl chloride,polystyrene,and polylactic acid)at a low concentration(10 particles/g sludge)slightly enhanced methanogenesis by 2.1%−9.0%,whereas higher levels(30−200 particles/g sludge)suppressed methanogenesis by 15.2%−30.1%.Notably,the coexistence of multiple plastics,particularly at low concentrations,showed synergistic suppression of methanogenesis.Unexpectedly,methanogenesis activity completely recovered after long-term exposure to plastics,despite obvious suppression of methanogenesis by initial plastic exposure.The inhibition of methanogenesis by plastics could be attributed to the stimulated generation of reactive oxygen species.The stress induced by plastics dramatically decreased the relative abundance of methanogens but showed marginal influence on putative hydrolytic and fermentation populations.Nonetheless,the digestion sludge microbiome exhibited resilience and functional redundancy,contributing to the recovery of methanogenesis during the long-term operation of digesters.Plastics also increased the complexity,modularity,and negative interaction ratios of digestion sludge microbiome networks,but their influence on community assembly varied.Interestingly,a unique plastisphere was observed,the networks and assembly of which were distinct from the sludge microbiome.Collectively,the comprehensive evaluation of the influence of microplastics and nanoplastics on methanogenic digestion,together with the novel ecological insights,contribute to better understanding and manipulating this engineered ecosystem in the face of increasing plastic pollution. | Jinting Liu Guofang Xu Siyan Zhao Jianzhong He | 2023 | mLife2023,2,4: | 0 |
| 20 | Optimization of Callus Induction Conditions from Immature Embryos of Maize under Stress显示文摘The embryos of maize(Zea mays L.)inbred lines GS02,GS07,GS08,GS11 and GS15 were used as receptor materials to optimize the receptor system from the aspects of genotype,medium components and stress(PEG6000,mannitol,salt and low phosphorus).The results showed that GS07 had the highest induction rate(95.2%).Orthogonal test analysis showed that the best combination of medium components in induction was A2B3C1D3(2),namely,the concentration of 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid(2,4-D)was 4 mg·mL^(-1),the concentration of L-Proline(L-Pro)was 0.8 mg·mL^(-1),and the concentration of silver nitrate(AgNO3)was 10 mg·mL^(-1)(or 5 mg·mL).Interestingly,we found that the optimal medium supplemented with 30 g·L^(-1)PEG6000 or 80 g·L^(-1)mannitol was suitable for antioxidant enzyme activity and malondialdehyde(MDA)content in GS07 callus.Exogenous 10 mmol·L^(-1)Ca^(2+)in the medium components with 100 mmol·L^(-1)sodium chloride(NaCl)could improve the activity of antioxidant enzymes in GS07 callus.Callus of GS07 could divide normally and grow well in medium components with 27 mg·L^(-1)KH_(2)PO_(4).This study enhanced the adaptability of maize callus to stress and optimized the culture conditions. | Xiaotong Wei Xuhong Fan Xuan Lu Liyuan Han Honglin Zhang Siyan Liu Jing Qu Shuyan Guan Yiyong Ma | 2022 | Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany2022,91,9: | 0 |
