Procedimentos dialíticos como a hemodiálise (HD) procuram sustentar a vida do paciente com insuficiência real aguda (IRA), até que haja recuperação da função renal. Este trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar a biocompatibilidade das membranas de acetato de celulose e polissulfona em cães sem e com IRA submetidos à hemodiálise, através das respostas biológicas e sinais clínicos presentes no processo. Os animais hemodialisados foram subdivididos em quatro grupos (8 animais em cada): grupo 1 composto por animais normais que usaram membrana de acetato de celulose; grupo 2 formado por animais com IRA que utlizaram acetato de celulose; grupo 3 composto por animais normais que utilizaram membrana de polissulfona; e grupo 4 formado por animais com IRA que usaram polissulfona. A indução da IRA foi realizada pela administração de gentamicina (45mg/kg/EV/dia). A principal alteração foi perda de peso dos animais dos grupos com IRA. Houve redução significativa nos níveis de ureia e creatinina principalmente nos animais hemodialisados com membrana de polissulfona, enquanto que os níveis de sódio, potássio e glicose não apresentaram diferenças significativas entre os grupos. Os níveis de C3 e microglobulina b2 não apresentaram alterações significativas nos grupos, enquanto que o TNFa estava em altos níveis nos grupos com IRA hemodialisados com polissulfona e acetato de celulose, sendo a detecção maior neste último. Não ocorreram alterações significativas relacionadas com a pressão arterial sistêmica e outros parâmetros hematológicos. Pode-se concluir que houve aumento nos níveis de TNFa nos cães com IRA submetidos à HD, e que a membrana de polissulfona se mostrou ligeiramente mais biocompatível que a membrana de acetato de celulose, porém novos marcadores precisam ser estudados.

Blockchain for Governance of Sustainability Transparency in the Global Energy Value Chain: Part 2, Reconciling the Technology/Regulation Mismatch
Authors: Downes Lauren , Reed Chris 
Published: March 2021

In this second part of a two-part article we continue our consideration of how global energy value chains could be managed more sustainably through blockchain by greatly increasing transparency. The aim is to use this transparency to incentivise more sustainable behaviour on the part both of energy producers and suppliers and of consumers. Incentives of this kind are market based, and so we have concentrated on market-based instruments in the energy sector, emphasising those that decrease the CO2 footprint of energy consumption, such as emissions trading schemes and renewable energy certificates. Blockchain can enhance transparency by improving the quality of, and access to, sustainability-related information. However, existing laws and regulatory frameworks that govern market-based instruments may prevent these benefits from becoming fully realised. We review the governance frameworks of market-based instruments in several international jurisdictions (Brazil, India, Kazakhstan, Mexico, South Africa and Ukraine, as well as the European Union with particular reference to the Netherlands and United Kingdom (which was a member of the EU at the time of this writing), to ascertain how laws, rules and regulations may limit transparency of sustainability information. We also consider jurisdictional differences to identify difficulties in the creation of a global framework for managing sustainability information from market-based instruments. Jurisdictional differences mean that a one-size fits all solution may not be possible. To overcome this, we propose a blockchain governance model, using aggregated blockchains and peering agreements. It allows flexibility when disclosing information, through layering of permissions, and this means that it should be possible to construct a transparency system which complies with existing domestic legal and regulatory requirements, rather than requiring major legal and regulatory change.

Strain-reduced micro-LEDs in 50 μm × 50 μm, 100 μm × 100 μm, 200 μm × 200 μm, 500 μm × 500 μm, and 1,000 μm × 1,000 μm sizes were grown on a patterned c-plane sapphire substrate using partitioned growth with the metal-organic chemical-vapor deposition (MOCVD) technique. The size effect on the optical properties and the indium concentration for the quantum wells were studied experimentally. Here, we revealed that the optical properties can be improved by decreasing the chip size (from 1,000 to 100 µm), which can correspondingly reduce the in-plane compressive stress. However, when the chip size is further reduced to 50 μm × 50 μm, the benefit of strain release is overridden by additional defects induced by the higher indium incorporation in the quantum wells and the efficiency of the device decreases. The underlying mechanisms of the changing output power are uncovered based on different methods of characterization. This work shows the rules of thumb to achieve optimal power performance for strain-reduced micro-LEDs through the proposed partitioned growth process.

Early and rapid identification of microorganisms is critical for reducing the mortality rate caused by bloodstream infections (BSIs). The accuracy and feasibility of directly identifying pathogens in positive blood cultures by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) has been intensely confirmed. In this study, we combined density centrifugation and extra chemical lysis-extraction to develop an optimized method in the blood culture process, which significantly improved the effectiveness of direct identification by MALDI-TOF MS. The accuracy was evaluated by 2,032 positive blood culture samples (115 species of microorganism). The overall MALDI-TOF MS based identification rate with scores ≥ 1.700 was 87.60%. 94.06% of gram-negative bacteria were identified consistently to the genus level, followed by anaerobes (93.33%), gram-positive bacteria (84.46%), and fungi (60.87%). This protocol could obtain results within 10–20 min at a cost of less than $0.1 per sample, which saved up to 24 h in identifying 87.60% of the microorganism from positive blood cultures. This rapid and simplified protocol facilitates the direct identification of microorganism in positive blood cultures, and exhibits the advantages of cost-effective, time-saving, and easy-to-use. It could provide the causative organism of the patient to clinicians in time for targeted treatment and reduce mortality.

Soil water content (SWC) plays a crucial role in the hydrological cycle and ecological restoration in arid and semi-arid areas. Studying the temporal stability of SWC spatial distribution is a requirement for the dynamic monitoring of SWC and the optimization of water resource management. The SWC in a Pinus tabulaeformis Carr. forest on the slope of the Loess Plateau of China were analyzed in five soil layers (0–100 cm with an interval of 20 cm) in the rainy and dry seasons from July 2014 to November 2017. The mean SWC was estimated and the main factors affecting the temporal stability of the SWC were further analyzed. Results showed that the SWC had strong temporal stability during the two seasons for several consecutive years. The temporal stability of SWC and the number of representative locations varied with season and depth. The elevation, soil total phosphorus (STP), clay, silt, or sand content of the representative locations approached the corresponding mean value of the study area. A single representative location accurately represented the mean SWC for the five depths in the rainy and dry seasons (RMSE &lt;2%; rainy season: 0.81 &lt; R2 &lt; 0.94; dry season: 0.63 &lt; R2 &lt; 0.83; p &lt; 0.01). The mean relative difference (MRD) and the relative difference standard deviation (SDRD) changed with the seasons and were significantly correlated with elevation, root density, and sand and silt content in two seasons (p &lt; 0.05). Elevation, root density, and sand content were the main factors influencing the change of SWC temporal stability in different seasons. The results provide scientific guidance to monitor SWC by using a small number of locations and enrich our understanding of the factors affecting the temporal stability of SWC in the rainy and dry seasons of the Loess Plateau of China.

BackgroundThere is no doubt that thyroid dysfunction is associated with psychiatric disorders. A large amount of thyroid carcinoma patients displayed mood disorders after the withdrawal of levothyroxine (LT4). However, it is unclear whether the disorders are related to the transient withdrawal of LT4, and if yes, what the possible underlying mechanism is. This study aims to investigate the abnormal regional cerebral glucose metabolism (rCMRglu) in a group of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) patients without LT4 for 4 weeks and prove the relationship between the abnormal rCMRglu with depression and anxiety.MethodsBrain 18F-FDG PET/CT data of 38 consecutive PTC patients with high/intermediate-risk from June 2016 to December 2017 have been analyzed. Of the 38 patients, 23 are in the LT4 withdrawal group (WG) and 15 in the LT4 replacement group (RG). These patients were also evaluated for depressive and anxiety symptoms within 24 h after the scans based on the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (17 items, HRDS-17) and the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA) respectively.ResultsThirty-eight patients (12 men, 26 women; age range, 25–69 years; mean age, 45.8 years) were selected in the study. Compared with the RG, patients in WG showed depression and anxiety with higher total scores of HRDS-17 and HAMA (14.7 ± 5.8 vs 3.8 ± 5.5, t = −5.74, p = 0.00; 9.3 ± 4.3 vs 2.7 ± 4.1, t = −4.74, p = 0.00, respectively). In the brain glucose metabolism analysis, the WG patients showed lower rCMRglu in Occipital_Mid_R and Postcentral_L. On the other hand, data illustrated significant rCMRglu increases in the Frontal_Sup_Orb_L. Compared with the healthy group (HG), the rCMRglu of the Postcentral_L and Precuneus_L showed hypoactivity, but the Hippocampus_R and the Temporal_Inf_L showed hyperactivity. This analysis yielded a significant correlation between abnormal rCMRglu with the free thyroxine level, the serum thyroid-stimulating hormone level, HRDS-17, and HAMA scores.ConclusionsThe findings showed that more PTC patients exhibited depression and anxiety after LT4 withdrawal for 4 weeks. More attention should be paid to these hypothyroid patients while they were in the hospital. Such a short-term LT4 withdrawal also likely induced abnormal rCMRglu. Our study attempts to explain the possible mechanism of mood disorders related to transient hypothyroidism.

Published: March 2021

Alongside the rapid expansion of wind power installation in China, wind curtailment is also mounting rapidly due to China’s energy endowment imbalance. The hydrogen-based wind-energy storage system becomes an alternative to solve the puzzle of wind power surplus. This article introduced China’s energy storage industry development and summarized the advantages of hydrogen-based wind-energy storage systems. From the perspective of resource conservation, it estimated the environmental benefits of hydrogen-based wind-energy storages. This research also builds a valuation model based on the Real Options Theory to capture the distinctive flexible charging and discharging features of the hydrogen-based wind-energy storage systems. Based on the model, simulation results, including the investment value and operation decision of the hydrogen energy storage system with different electricity prices, system parameters, and different levels of subsidies, are presented. The results show that the hydrogen storage system fed with the surplus wind power can annually save approximately 2.19–3.29 million tons of standard coal consumption. It will reduce 3.31–4.97 million tons of CO2, SO2, NOx, and PM, saving as much as 286.6–429.8 million yuan of environmental cost annually on average. The hydrogen-based wind-energy storage system’s value depends on the construction investment and operating costs and is also affected by the mean-reverting nature and jumps or spikes in electricity prices. The market-oriented reform of China’s power sector is conducive to improve hydrogen-based wind-energy storage systems’ profitability. At present, subsidies are still essential to reduce initial investment and attract enterprises to participate in hydrogen energy storage projects.

ObjectivesTo analyze the gene expression profile of peripheral blood monocytes in different stages of coronary artery disease (CAD) by transcriptome sequencing, and to explore potential genes and pathway involved in CAD pathogenesis.MethodsAccording to the screening of coronary angiography and quality control of blood samples, eight intermediate coronary lesion patients were selected, then eight patients with acute myocardial infarction, and eight patients with normal coronary angiography were matched by age and gender. Transcriptomics sequencing was conducted for the peripheral blood monocytes of these 24 samples by using the Illumina HiSeq high-throughput platform. Then, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed. Gene Ontology (GO) functional annotation, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway annotation, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network were applied to annotate the potential functions of DEGs.ResultsCompared with the normal coronary angiography group, we identified a total of 169 DEGs in the intermediate coronary lesion group, which were significantly enriched in 59 GO terms and 17 KEGG pathways. Compared with the normal coronary angiography group, we found a total of 2,028 DEGs, which were significantly enriched in 311 GO terms and 20 KEGG pathways in the acute myocardial infarction group. The cross-comparison between normal versus intermediate coronary lesion group, and normal versus acute myocardial infarction group included 98 differential genes with 65 up regulated and 33 down regulated genes, which were significantly enriched in 46 GO terms and 10 KEGG pathways. During the progression of CAD, there was a significant up-regulated expression of CSF3, IL-1A, CCR7, and IL-18, and down-regulated expression of MAPK14. Besides GO items such as inflammatory response was significantly enriched, KEGG analysis showed the most remarkable enrichments in IL-17 signaling pathway and cytokine-cytokine receptor interactions.ConclusionsTranscriptomics profiles vary in patients with different severity of CAD. CSF3, IL-1A, CCR7, IL-18, and MAPK14, as well as IL-17 signaling pathway and cytokine and cytokine receptor interaction signaling pathway related with inflammatory response might be the potential biomarker and targets for the treatment of coronary artery disease.
