Charge exchange has been recognized as a primary source of soft X-ray emission in many astrophysical outflow environments, including cometary and planetary exospheres impacted by the solar wind. Some models have been set up by using different data collections of charge-exchange cross-sections. However, multiple-electron transfer has not been included in these models. In this paper, we set up a charge-exchange model with the inclusion of double-electron capture (DEC), and make a detailed investigation of this process on X-ray emissions of highly charged carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and neon ions by using available experimental cross-sections. We also study the effect of different n-selective cross-sections on soft X-ray emission by using available experimental n-distributions. This work reveals that DEC enhancement on line intensity is linearly proportional to the ratio of ion abundance in the solar wind. It is more obvious for soft X-rays from carbon ions (C4+) in collision with CO2, and the enhancement on line intensity can be up to 53 per cent with typical ion abundances [Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE)] in the solar wind. The synthetic spectra with parameters from the Ulysses mission for the solar wind reveal velocity dependence, target dependence, as well as the non-negligible contribution from the DEC.

The New Robotic Telescope (NRT) is an international collaboration to build and operate a 4m diameter fully robotic telescope. The telescope will take advantage of the superb atmospheric conditions at the Observatory of the Roque de los Muchachos (ORM). In conjunction with a large aperture, entirely robotic operation, quick response, and a set of versatile instrumentation in the optical and near-infrared this guarantees a high scientific impact focused mainly in the area of time domain astronomy. This paper presents the scientific motivation and the status of the project, discussing possible technical solutions under evaluation for the optics, mechanics and control system.

Background Increasing evidence suggests that adverse birth outcomes, including preterm birth, small for gestational age (SGA) and large for gestational age (LGA), are associated with increased risks of hypertension, ischemic heart disease, stroke and heart failure. However, knowledge regarding their associations with atrial fibrillation (AF) is limited and inconsistent. Objective To investigate whether preterm birth, SGA and LGA are associated with increased risks of AF later in life. Methods We conducted a population-based cohort study involving 8,012,433 live singleton births based on the nation-wide Danish (1978–2016), Swedish (1973–2014) and Finnish (1987–2014) Medical Birth Registers. Information on birth outcomes, atrial fibrillation and covariates was obtained from nationwide health and socioeconomic registers. We estimated hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for AF according to preterm birth (90th birth weight for gestational age percentiles, respectively) with multivariable Cox proportional hazard models and flexible parametric survival models. We conducted sibling analyses to control for unmeasured familial risk factors. Results Preterm birth and LGA were associated with increased AF risks in both the full population cohort and in the sibling analyses; the multivariate HRs (95% CI) from the cohort analyses were 1.53 (1.37–1.71) and 1.55 (1.44–1.65), respectively. The associations were stronger with AF in childhood than in adulthood. Children born SGA had an increased risk of AF in the first 18 years of life, but not later. Conclusions Individuals born preterm or LGA had an increased AF risk independently of familial confounding factors. Individuals born SGA had an increased AF risk only during childhood. Persons born prematurely or with abnormal foetal growth may benefit from early screening and prevention to reduce the risk of AF later in life.

OBJECTIVE: To study the trend of surgical type, surgical procedure and etiological distribution of upper urinary tract repair in recent 10 years. METHODS: The preoperative and perioperative variables and follow-up data of upper urinary tract reconstruction surgery in RECUTTER (Reconstruction of Urinary Tract: Technology, Epidemiology and Result) database from 2010 to 2021 were searched, collected and analyzed. The surgical type, surgical procedure, duration of hospitalization, time of operation, incidence of short-term complications, and proportion of the patients undergoing reoperations were compared between the two groups of 2010-2017 period and 2018-2021 period. RESULTS: A total of 1 072 patients were included in the RECUTTER database. Congenital factors and iatrogenic injuries were the main causes of upper urinary tract repair. Among them, 129 (12.0%) patients had open operation, 403 (37.6%) patients had laparoscopic surgery, 322 (30.0%) patients had robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery and 218 (20.3%) patients had endourological procedure. In the last decade, the total number of surgeries showed a noticeable increasing annual trend and the proportion of robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery in 2018-2021 was significantly higher than that in 2010-2017 (P < 0.001). The 1 072 patients included 124 (11.6%) cases of ileal ureter replacements, 440 (41.1%) cases of pyeloplasty, 229 (21.4%) cases of balloon dilation, 109 (10.2%) cases of ureteral reimplantation, 49 (4.6%) cases of boari flap-Psoas hitch surgery, 60 (5.6%) cases of uretero-ureteral anastomosis, 61 (5.7%) cases of lingual mucosal onlay graft ureteroplasty or appendiceal onlay flap ureteroplasty. Pyeloplasty and balloon dilatation had been the main types of surgery, while the proportion of lingual mucosal onlay graft ureteroplasty plus appendiceal onlay flap ureteroplasty had increased significantly in recent years (P < 0.05). In addition, the time of operation was significantly increased (P < 0.05) after 2018, which was considered to be related to the sharp increase in the proportion of robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery. We found that minimally invasive surgery (endourological procedure and robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery) as an independent risk factor (P=0.050, OR=0.472) could reduce the incidence of short-term post-operative complications. CONCLUSION: We have justified the value of the RECUTTER database, created by the Institute of Urology, Peking University in data support for clinical research work, and provided valuable experience for the construction of other multi-center databases at home and abroad. In recent 10 years, we have observed that, in upper urinary tract reconstruction surgery, the surgery type tends to be minimally invasive and the surgery procedure tends to be complicated, suggesting the superiority of robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Microstructural white matter abnormalities on DTI using Tract-Based Spatial Statistics at term-equivalent age are associated with cognitive and motor outcomes at 2 years of age or younger. However, neurodevelopmental tests administered at such early time points are insufficiently predictive of mild-moderate motor and cognitive impairment at school age. Our objective was to evaluate the microstructural antecedents of cognitive and motor outcomes at 3 years' corrected age in a cohort of very preterm infants. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We prospectively recruited 101 very preterm infants (

This article presents a novel decoupling technique for the circularly polarized multiple-inputmultiple- output (CP-MIMO) system composed of Guoshaped patch antennas. A comparative study has been conducted on antenna performance as a function of packing distance before and after applying the technique. A prototype of two-element Guo-shaped patch MIMO at a small inter-element spacing of 12.5 mm has devised aiming for the 5G new radio n38 (2.57-2.62 GHz) applications. Simulation reinforced with experimental results confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed technique, whereas the two Guo-shaped patch elements packed in such small spacing can be operated independently. Both the envelope correlation coefficient and diversity gain are approaching their ideal values.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical effect of microsurgery and endovascular embolization in the treatment of spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (SDAVF) by meta-analysis. METHODS: A systematic review was performed to retrieve all relevant literature about surgical treatment or endovascular embolization of SDAVF up to December 2019 through PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials Results, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and SinoMed. The Chinese and English key words included: "SDAVF", "spinal dural arteriovenous fistula", "spinal AVM", "spinal vascular malformation and treatment". The included studies were evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. The early failure rate, long-term recurrence, neurological recovery, and complications were evaluated and the clinical effects of the two methods in the treatment of SDAVF were compared by using RevMan 5.3 software. And a further subgroup analysis of the therapeutic effect of endovascular embolization with different embolic agents was conducted. RESULTS: A total of 46 studies involving 1 958 cases of SDAVF were included, in which 935 cases were treated by microsurgery and 1 023 cases were treated by endovascular embolization. The funnel plot demonstrated that there was no publication bias. The results of meta-analysis showed that the incidence of early surgical failure was lower than that of endovascular embolization (OR=0.20, 95%CI: 0.13-0.30, P < 0.05), and the long-term recurrence was also lower than that of endovascular embolization (OR=0.36, 95%CI: 0.22-0.58, P < 0.05). The improvement of neurological function in the surgical patients is significantly higher than that in the patients treated with endovascular embolization (OR=2.86, 95%CI: 1.36-5.99, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of complications in these two groups (OR=1.52, 95%CI: 0.88-2.64, P=0.14). In the cases of endovascular embolization, the risk of treatment failure or recurrence was higher with Onyx glue than with n-butyl 2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA), and the difference was statistically significant (OR=4.70, 95%CI: 1.55-14.28, P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Although the treatment of dural arteriovenous fistulas by intravascular embolization has been widely used, the clinical effect of microsurgery is still better than that of endovascular embolization. Large scale and high-quality randomized controlled trials are required to validate the efficacy and safety of endovascular treatment in SDAVF patients.

The vibro–acoustic strong coupling problem between the panel and cavity widely exists in the industry. This paper developed a numerical method to study the natural characteristics and vibro–acoustic response of the strong coupling system with an elastically restrained rectangular plate backed by a trapezoidal cavity. The isoparametric transformation technique was used to normalize the trapezoidal cavity. The dynamical equations of the coupling system were derived using the energy principle and the Rayleigh–Ritz method with the Legendre polynomial series as trial functions. Then, the effects of structural boundary conditions and bevel angle on the natural frequencies of the system with the elastic plate on the top surface of the trapezoidal cavity were explored. The natural frequency increased with the number of structural support boundaries and the inclination angle of the trapezoidal cavity bevel. Besides, the steady-state response of the coupling system under different excitation conditions was investigated. Therefore, accurate prediction for steady-state response will provide ideas for noise control of the vibro–acoustic strong coupling problem.

A large number of studies have shown that equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) occur mainly after sunset, and they usually drift eastward. However, in this paper, an unusual EPB event was simultaneously observed by an all-sky imager and the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) network in southern China, during the recovery phase of a geomagnetic storm that happened on 6–8 November 2015. Observations from both techniques show that the EPBs appeared near dawn. Interestingly, the observational results show that the EPBs continued to develop after sunrise, and they disappeared about 1 h after sunrise. The development stage of EPBs lasted for at least about 3 h. To our knowledge, this is the first time that the evolution of EPBs developing around sunrise was observed by an all-sky imager and the GNSS network. Our observation showed that the EPBs drifted westward, which was different from the usual eastward drifts of post-sunset EPBs. The simulation from the Thermosphere–Ionosphere–Electrodynamics General Circulation Model (TIE-GCM) suggest that the westward drift of EPBs should be related to the enhanced westward winds at storm time. Besides this, bifurcation and merging processes of EPBs were observed by the all-sky imager in the event. Associated with the development of EPBs, an increase in the peak height of the ionospheric F region was also observed near sunrise, and we suggest the enhanced upward vertical plasma drift during the geomagnetic storm plays a major role in triggering the EPBs near sunrise.

The hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) as a wide bandgap semiconductor is an attractive material for deep ultraviolet (DUV) generation. In this paper we study the prospect of using the stacking hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets (h-BNNS) for generating DUV emission by impact excitation in alternating current driven thin electroluminescence devices (ACTEL) based on BN phosphors having different morphologies. A theoretical approach considered is based on the impact excitation model for generating DUV from stacking h-BNNS under a high electric field. It was found that in the h-BNNS with a thickness of 90 nm biased at 3.33×109 V/m, the quantum yield can reach to 86.8%, and the power conversion efficiency of 1.68%. To achieve the same quantum yield and power conversion efficiency for the ACTEL based on h-BN single crystal, the active phosphor layer should be 2 μm thick when biased at 1.5×108 V/m.

There is a wide range of clinical and radiographic factors affecting individual surgeons' ultimate decision for CSF diversion for pediatric patients following prenatal myelomeningocele repair. Our aim was to construct a composite index (CSF diversion surgery index) that integrates conventional clinical measures and neuroimaging biomarkers to predict CSF diversion surgery in these pediatric patients.This was a secondary retrospective analysis of data from 33 patients with prenatal myelomeningocele repair (including 14 who ultimately required CSF diversion surgery). Potential independent variables, including the Management of Myelomeningocele Study Index (a dichotomized variable based on the shunt-placement criteria from the Management of Myelomeningocele Study), postnatal DTI measures (fractional anisotropy and mean diffusivity in the genu of the corpus callosum and the posterior limb of internal capsule), fronto-occipital horn ratio at the time of DTI, gestational ages, and sex, were evaluated using stepwise logistic regression analysis to identify the most important predictors.The CSF diversion surgery index model showed that the Management of Myelomeningocele Study Index and fractional anisotropy in the genu of the corpus callosum were significant predictors (The CSF diversion surgery index model outperformed all single predictor models and, with additional validation, may potentially be developed and incorporated into a sensitive and robust clinical tool to assist clinicians in hydrocephalus management.

Soft x-ray emissions induced by solar wind ions that collide with neutral material in the solar system have been detected around planets, and were proposed as a remote probe for the solar wind interaction with the Martian exosphere. A multi-fluid three-dimensional magneto-hydrodynamic model is adopted to derive the global distributions of solar wind particles. Spherically symmetric exospheric H, H$_2$, He, O, and CO$_2$ density profiles and a sophisticated hybrid model that includes charge-exchange and proton/neutral excitation processes are used to study the low triplet line ratio $G=\frac{i+f}{r}$ (0.77$\pm$0.58) of O VII and total x-ray luminosity around Mars. We further calculate the emission factor $\alpha$-value with different neutrals over a wide ion abundance and velocity ranges. Our results are in good agreement with those of previous reports. The evolution of the charge stage of solar wind ions shows that sequential recombination due to charge-exchange can be negligible at the interaction region. This only appears below the altitude of 400~km. The anonymous low disk $G$ ratio can be easily explained by the collisional quenching effect at neutral densities higher than 10$^{11}$cm$^{-3}$. However, the quenching contribution is small in Mars' exosphere and only appears below 400~km. Charge-exchange with H$_2$ and N$_2$ is still the most likely reason for this low $G$-ratio. X-ray emissivity maps in collisions with different neutrals differ from each other. A clear bow shock in the collision with all the neutrals is in accordance with previous reports. The resulting total x-ray luminosity of 6.55~MW shows a better agreement with the XMM-Newton observation of 12.8$\pm$1.4~MW than that of previous predictions., Comment: 17 pages, 13 figures; Accpted by ApJ

Background: Post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) encompasses new-onset and previously unrecognized type 2 diabetes. Kidney failure masks type 2 diabetes. Branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) are closely associated with glucose metabolism. Therefore, understanding BCAA metabolism both in kidney failure and after kidney transplantation may inform PTDM mechanisms. Objective: To understand the impact of present or absent kidney function on plasma BCAA concentrations. Design: Cross-sectional study of kidney transplant recipients and kidney transplant candidates. Setting: Large kidney transplant center in Toronto, Canada. Measurements: We measured plasma BCAA and aromatic amino acid (AAA) concentrations in 45 pre-kidney transplant candidates (15 with type 2 diabetes, 30 without type 2 diabetes) and 45 post-kidney transplant recipients (15 PTDM, 30 non-PTDM), along with insulin resistance and sensitivity by 75 g oral glucose loading for those in each group without type 2 diabetes. Methods: Plasma AA concentrations were analyzed using MassChrom AA Analysis and compared between groups. The insulin sensitivity for oral glucose tolerance tests or Matsuda index (a measure of whole-body insulin resistance), Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (a measure of hepatic insulin resistance), and Insulin Secretion-Sensitivity Index-2 (ISSI-2, a measure of pancreatic β-cell response) was calculated from fasting insulin and glucose concentrations, and compared with BCAA concentrations. Results: Each BCAA concentration was higher in post-transplant subjects than pre-transplant subjects ( P < .001 for leucine, isoleucine, valine). In post-transplant subjects, each BCAA concentration was higher in PTDM versus non-PTDM (odds ratio for PTDM 3-4 per 1 SD increase in BCAA concentration, P < .001 for each). Tyrosine concentrations were also higher in post-transplant subjects than pre-transplant subjects, but tyrosine did not differ by PTDM status. By contrast, neither BCAA nor AAA concentrations were different in pre-transplant subjects with or without type 2 diabetes. Whole-body insulin resistance, hepatic insulin resistance, and pancreatic β-cell response did not differ between nondiabetic post-transplant and pre-transplant subjects. Branched-chain amino acid concentrations correlated with the Matsuda index and Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance ( P < .05 for each) only in nondiabetic post-transplant subjects—not in nondiabetic pre-transplant subjects. Branched-chain amino acid concentrations did not correlate with ISSI-2 in either pre-transplant or post-transplant subjects. Limitations: The sample size was small, and subjects were not studied prospectively for the development of type 2 diabetes. Conclusions: Plasma BCAA concentrations are higher post-transplant in type 2 diabetic states, but do not differ by diabetes status in the presence of kidney failure. The association of BCAA with measures of hepatic insulin resistance among nondiabetic post-transplant patients is consistent with impaired BCAA metabolism as a characteristic of kidney transplantation.

As a novel X-ray focusing technology, lobster eye micro-pore optics (MPO) feature both a wide observing field of view and true imaging capability, promising sky monitoring with significantly improved sensitivity and spatial resolution in soft X-rays. Since first proposed by Angel (1979), the optics have been extensively studied, developed and trialed over the past decades. In this Letter, we report on the first-light results from a flight experiment of the Lobster Eye Imager for Astronomy ($LEIA$), a pathfinder of the wide-field X-ray telescope of the Einstein Probe mission. The piggyback imager, launched in July 2022, has a mostly un-vignetted field of view of $18.6^\circ \times 18.6^\circ $. Its spatial resolution is in the range of 4$-$7 arcmin in FWHM and the focal spot effective area is 2$-$3 cm$^2$, both showing only mild fluctuations across the field of view. We present images of the Galactic center region, Sco X-1 and the diffuse Cygnus Loop nebular taken in snapshot observations over 0.5$-$4 keV. These are truly wide-field X-ray images of celestial bodies observed, for the first time, by a focusing imaging telescope. Initial analyses of the in-flight data show excellent agreement between the observed images and the on-ground calibration and simulations. The instrument and its characterization are briefly described, as well as the flight experiment. The results provide a solid basis for the development of the present and proposed wide-field X-ray missions using lobster eye MPO., Comment: 11 pages, 4 figures.

We report an amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of Ds+→K+K−π+ decay using a data sample of 3.19 fb−1 recorded with BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 4.178 GeV. We perform a model-independent partial wave analysis in the low K+K− mass region to determine the K+K− S-wave line shape, followed by an amplitude analysis of our very pure high-statistics sample. With the detection efficiency based on the amplitude analysis results, the absolute branching fraction is measured to be B(Ds+→K+K−π+)=(5.47±0.08stat±0.13sys)%.

We report a measurement of the observed cross sections of e + e - → J / ψ X based on 3.21 fb - 1 of data accumulated at energies from 3.645 to 3.891 GeV with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII collider. In analysis of the cross sections, we measured the decay branching fractions of B ( ψ ( 3686 ) → J / ψ X ) = ( 64.4 ± 0.6 ± 1.6 ) % and B ( ψ ( 3770 ) → J / ψ X ) = ( 0.5 ± 0.2 ± 0.1 ) % for the first time. The energy-dependent line shape of these cross sections cannot be well described by two Breit-Wigner (BW) amplitudes of the expected decays ψ ( 3686 ) → J / ψ X and ψ ( 3770 ) → J / ψ X . Instead, it can be better described with one more BW amplitude of the decay R ( 3760 ) → J / ψ X . Under this assumption, we extracted the R ( 3760 ) mass M R ( 3760 ) = 3766.2 ± 3.8 ± 0.4 MeV / c 2 , total width Γ R ( 3760 ) tot = 22.2 ± 5.9 ± 1.4 MeV , and product of leptonic width and decay branching fraction Γ R ( 3760 ) e e B [ R ( 3760 ) → J / ψ X ] = ( 79.4 ± 85.5 ± 11.7 ) eV . The significance of the R ( 3760 ) is 5.3 σ . The first uncertainties of these measured quantities are from fits to the cross sections and second systematic.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of curcumol on the proliferation, apoptosis and collagen synthesis of keloid fibroblasts and explore the underlying mechanism. METHODS: Keloid fibroblasts were treated with different concentrations of curcumol (10, 20, 40, 80 and 160 mg/L) or with 160 mg/L curcumol and 20 μmol/L ISO (an ERK signaling pathway activator). Western blotting was performed to detect the expression levels of proliferation-associated proteins (cyclin D1 and PCNA), fibrosis marker proteins (Col1A1, Col3A1 and α-SMA), apoptosis proteins (Bcl-2, Bax and cleaved caspase-3) and ERK signaling pathway proteins (p-ERK1/2, p-MEK and p-c-Raf) in the cells. MTT assay and flow cytometry were used to evaluate the proliferation and apoptosis rate of the treated cells, respectively. RESULTS: Curcumol at 10, 20, 40, 80 and 160 mg/L all reduced the protein expressions of cyclin D1, PCNA and Bcl-2, inhibited the expressions of fibrotic marker proteins Col1A1, Col3A1 and α-SMA, decreased the levels of ERK signaling pathway proteins p-ERK1/2, p-MEK and p-c-Raf, and increased the expressions of Bax and cleaved caspase-3 proteins (P < 0.05). Curcumol treatment at 160 mg/L obviously inhibited the proliferation and collagen synthesis, promoted cell apoptosis and inhibited the ERK signaling pathway in the keloid fibroblasts; treatment with ISO significantly reversed the effects of curcumol on the proliferation, apoptosis, collagen synthesis and ERK signal pathway of the cells. CONCLUSIONS: Curcumol regulates proliferation, apoptosis and collagen synthesis in keloid fibroblasts through the ERK signaling pathway.

The mechanical property changes in three kinds of ternary borosilicate glasses (named NBS glasses) induced by 8.0-MeV Au3+ were studied by nanoindentation measurements. For these borosilicate glasses, the molar ratio R = [Na2O]/[B2O3] is varied (1.34, 0.75, and 0.40 for NBS1, NBS2, and NBS3, respectively), while their molar ratio K = [SiO2]/[B2O3] is fixed at 4.04. The nanoindentation results indicate that both the hardness and reduced Young modulus were decreased after irradiation. No obvious difference in both hardness and modulus variations of these three NBS glasses was observed. Based on the main structures of their pristine samples, the reedmergnerite groups containing Si-O-BIV may be the structural origin of Au-ion-irradiated mechanical property changes in the homogeneous glasses with R > 0.5. However, the modification of the silica network and phase separation may dominate the mechanical property changes for glasses with R ≤ 0.5. The ion- and electron-irradiation-induced mechanical property changes of these NBS glasses were also compared in this study. The extended incubation dose and the slower decreasing rate can be observed in electron-irradiation-induced hardness and modulus variations, which may be caused by the different mechanisms between both irradiation scenarios.
