Water-sediment flow patterns can greatly contribute to the operational efficiency and safety of the pumping station. Among them, the vortex flow patterns have frequently caused sediment deposition in the forebay of forward pumping stations in a sediment-laden river. The forebay of the pumping station is also characterized by a complex two-phase flow structure with water and sediment. It is still lacking in the impact of pump start-up combinations on the flow pattern and suspended sediment movement. In this study, the mixture multiphase flow and the Realizable k-ε turbulence model were utilized from an engineering perspective. Grid evaluation criteria were selected as the hydraulic loss of water sediment flowing through the forebay and the operational efficiency of the pump. The inlet of the diversion channel was set as a mixed velocity inflow boundary, while the pump outlet was designated as a free outflow boundary. Solid boundaries were treated using the wall function. The free boundary of the water surface was handled with the assumption of a free-sliding rigid cover. A mathematical model was then established for the forebay of the pump station. The flow and sediment movement were simulated under different start-up combinations. The characteristics and formation mechanisms of each vortex region were analyzed to predict the sediment deposition in the forebay. An optimal start-up combination was proposed to alter the flow field structure. The hydrodynamic dredging was achieved for the large sediment deposits within the forebay. The velocity and sediment deposition within the forebay were measured using the Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers velocity profiler. These measurements were also used to validate the numerical simulation. The results show that a "plane sudden expansion vortex" was formed in the water-sediment two-phase flow from the diversion channel to the inlet of the forebay, due to the separation of the boundary layer. The vortex depth was about 90% of the water depth. A "near bottom three-dimensional vortex" in the intake pond was formed, influenced by the sudden increase of local water depth and the plane vortex. The vortex depth was about 93% of the water depth. The suspended sediment migrated to both sides of the forebay wall under the action of the vortex, where the "fanshape" sediment deposition was observed. The total sediment deposition accounted for about 60% of the total volume of the forebay. At the same time, the sediment content at the bottom of the intake pond was 8 to 9 times higher than that of the diversion canal. While the sediment content in the middle area was basically the same as that of the diversion canal. A total of five start-up combinations were proposed, including imported full open type, imported half-open type, intermediate focusing type start-up pump, two side decentralized type start-up pump, and fully open type pump. The comprehensive comparison showed that the flow pattern was significantly improved in the forebay after 91 days of operation of the pump station. Specifically, the flow velocity uniformity at the pump port of intermediate focusing type case 5 increased by 5.84%, whereas, the drift angle, the area of high sediment concentration area, and the sediment deposition decreased by 3.35%, 75%, and 58.60%, respectively. The findings can provide theoretical support to mitigate the harmful effects of vortex areas and sediment deposition in the forebay, thereby optimizing the operation of the pumping station. In addition, future research should consider optimizing and improving many more factors, including the separated forebay, in order to further optimize the sediment deposition and operation efficiency in the forebay of the pump station.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease with inflammatory back pain as the main clinical feature, which seriously affects patients’ health and quality of life. Its pathogenesis is not yet clear. Non-coding RNA (ncRNA) plays an important role in the pathogenesis and treatment of AS, mainly in osteogenic differentiation, inflammatory response, and immune cells. Therefore, by focusing on the pathological process of ncRNA affecting the progression of AS, it may provide a new perspective for the diagnosis and treatment of this disease. Based on this, the authors review the research progress in the correlation between ncRNA and AS, with a view to provide a reference basis for the prevention and treatment of AS.

Cuproptosis is a recently discovered copper-dependent programmed cell death. The main mechanism of cuproptosis is complex, which is closely related to mitochondrial respiration and induces oxidative stress, protein fatty acylation and copper homeostasis through this process. In this paper, the existing regulation mechanism of cuproptosis is sorted out, and the research progress of cuproptosis mechanism is reviewed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

With the advent of the antibacterial ban era, more and more feed enterprises have been chosen to use microbial fermented feed as animal feed ingredients, which have the advantages of good palatability, low price, and rich nutritional value. Applying microbial fermented feed in pig breeding can significantly improve its production performance and enhance the intestinal health of pigs in the foundation of decreasing the feed cost. In this paper, the types and preparation methods of microbial fermented feeds and their effects on the intestinal health of pigs were reviewed by studying the current research progress of fermented feed at home and abroad to provide references and suggestions for healthy pig breeding.

Objective To investigate the effects of stepwise recruitment maneuvers（RM）on cardiopulmonary function in elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy with one-lung ventilation（OLV）. Methods Sixty elderly patients，who underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy with OLV，were randomly divided into three groups after anesthesia induction and before OLV：control group（group C，patients did not undergo RM），sustained inflation RM group（SI group，patients underwent SI RM），and stepwise RM group（SW group，patients underwent stepwise RM），with 20 in each. The time of operation and OLV，volume of added fluid and blood loss were recorded during operation. Hemodynamic parameters in‑ cluding heart rate（HR），central venous pressure（CVP）and mean arterial pressure（MAP）were monitored，at the time points of T0（after anesthesia induction and before OLV），T1（PIP=30 cmH2O），T2（15 min after RM），T3（30 min after RM），and T4（120 min after RM）. Radial artery blood was drawn for detecting partial pressure of oxygen（PaO2）and calculating oxygenation index（OI）at the same time. Volume of tidal（VT）and dynamic lung compliance（Cdyn）were monitored as parameters of respiratory function by anesthesia machine at the same time. The venous blood of the upper limb on the non- infusion side was drawn for detecting the levels of serum high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T（hs-cTnT）and interleukin-8 （IL-8）. Postoperative cardiac adverse events（i. e. cardiopalmus，chest distress and chest pain）and pulmonary complications（i. e. pneumonia，atelectasis and hypoxemia）were reported. Results There were no significant differences in time of operation and OLV or volume of added fluid and blood loss among all groups（all P>0. 05）. Compared with T0 in the same group，HR and MAP significantly decreased，and CVP increased in SI group at T1-T2 and in SW group at T1（all P<0. 05）. Compared with T0 in the same group，PaO2 and OI significantly decreased in SW group at T1 and SI group at T1 and T2. Mean‑ while，PaO2 and OI in SW and SI groups at T3 and T4，VT and Cdyn in SW and SI groups at T1-T4 increased（all P<0. 05）. PaO2 and OI in SW and SI groups at T3 and T4，VT and Cdyn in SW and SI groups at T1-T4 significantly increased in comparison with those of the group C（all P<0. 05）. Notably，PaO2 and OI in SW group at T1 and T2，VT and Cdyn in SW group at T2-T4 increased significant in comparison with those of the SI group at the same time points（all P<0. 05）. Compared with T0 in the same group，the levels of hS-cTnT and IL-8 among three groups at T2-T4 and T3-T4 all significantly increased（all P< 0. 05）. Accordingly，compared with group C and SI group，the levels of hS-cTnT and IL-8 of the SW group at T2-T4 and T3-T4 significantly decreased，respectively（all P<0. 05）. In addition，compared with group C and SI group，the incidence of cardiopalmus and postoperative pneumonia in the SW group decreased（all P<0. 05）. And compared with group C，the incidence of atelectasis in the SI and SW groups decreased（all P<0. 05）. Conclusion Stepwise RM helps to improve hemodynamics，oxygenation function and respiratory function，decreased hs-cTnT and IL-8 expression，and reduce adverse cardiac events and pulmonary complications in elderly patients who undergo thoracoscopic lobectomy with OLV.
