What Type of Industrial Agglomeration Is Beneficial to the Eco-Efficiency of Northwest China?

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

The contradiction between industrial economic development and the ecological environment in Northwest China is prominent, so the green transformation of industrial economy in this region is imperative. From the perspective of industrial ecology, this study uses economic and environmental statistics from Northwest China from 2006 to 2018 as well as the Krugman specialization index and entropy index methods to calculate the degree of different types of industrial agglomeration in Northwest China. The eco-efficiency of Northwest China is calculated by the global SBM-DDF model. On this basis, the stochastic effect panel tobit regression model is used to analyze the influence and mechanism of different types of industrial agglomeration on eco-efficiency in Northwest China. The results show that the concentration of specialization has a significantly negative effect on the eco-efficiency of Northwest China at the level of 1%. Excepting Ningxia, the eco-efficiency of other provinces has been improved with the decrease of industrial specialization. The influence of the related diversification agglomeration on the eco-efficiency in Northwest China shows a U curve. The degree of industrial correlation diversification in Qinghai and Ningxia is less than the critical value 1.45, whereas Shaanxi, Gansu, and Xinjiang have crossed the inflection point. The unrelated diversification agglomeration has a negative effect on the eco-efficiency of Northwest China at the level of 1%, and the degree of industrial independent diversification in Shaanxi Province has decreased slightly, which is beneficial to the improvement of eco-efficiency. By contrast, other provinces have increased considerably. The conclusion can provide a theoretical basis for industrial green transformation path selection and related policy formulation in Northwest China.

Probiotics are live microorganisms that confer a beneficial effect on the host when administered in proper amounts (Kalliomaki et al., 2001; Brown and Valiere, 2004). Several mechanisms responsible for the protective action of probiotics have been proposed (Balcazar et al., 2006), competitive exclusion of pathogenic bacteria; source of ISSN: 2319-7706 Volume 3 Number 8 (2014) pp. 336-344 http://www.ijcmas.com
Telescope interferometers: an alternative to classical wavefront sensors

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Several types of Wavefront Sensors (WFS) are nowadays available in the field\nof Adaptive Optics (AO). Generally speaking, their basic principle consists in\nmeasuring slopes or curvatures of Wavefront Errors (WFE) transmitted by a\ntelescope, subsequently reconstructing WFEs digitally. Such process, however,\ndoes not seem to be well suited for evaluating co-phasing or piston errors of\nfuture large segmented telescopes in quasi real-time. This communication\npresents an original, recently proposed technique for direct WFE sensing. The\nprinciple of the device, which is named "Telescope-Interferometer" (TI), is\nbased on the addition of a reference optical arm into the telescope pupil\nplane. Then incident WFEs are deduced from Point Spread Function (PSF)\nmeasurements at the telescope focal plane. Herein are described two different\ntypes of TIs, and their performance are discussed in terms of intrinsic\nmeasurement accuracy and spatial resolution. Various error sources are studied\nby means of numerical simulations, among which photon noise sounds the most\ncritical. Those computations finally help to define the application range of\nthe TI method in an AO regime, including main and auxiliary telescope diameters\nand magnitude of the guide star. Some practical examples of optical\nconfigurations are also described and commented.\n
SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURS – WHAT MAKES THEM DIFFERENT FROM BUSINESS UNDERTAKERS?

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Social entrepreneurs, very often operate with highly limited resources, not to say with virtually nothing. They possess motivation, but apart from financial or technical resources very often they also need complex set of skills, especially those connected with leadership. Social entrepreneurship is similar to business entrepreneurship in many way, however there are some differences. Both similarities and differences can be find in theoretical papers, however there is a limited number of research which prove them. A research conducted in 2014 among 76 respondents, engaged in business and social activities, proved that to some extent social and business entrepreneurs have some common features, however some of them are unique for each of this entrepreneurship type.
SH1645402.08FU

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

UNITE provides a unified way for delimiting, identifying, communicating, and working with DNA-based Species Hypotheses (SH). All fungal ITS sequences in the international nucleotide sequence databases are clustered to approximately the species level by applying a set of dynamic distance values (<0.5 - 3.0%). All species hypotheses are given a unique, stable name in the form of a DOI, and their taxonomic and ecological annotations are verified through distributed, web-based third-party annotation efforts. SHs are connected to a taxon name and its classification as far as possible (phylum, class, order, etc.) by taking into account identifications for all sequences in the SH. An automatically or manually designated sequence is chosen to represent each such SH. These sequences are released (https://unite.ut.ee/repository.php) for use by the scientific community in, for example, local sequence similarity searches and next-generation sequencing analysis pipelines. The system and the data are updated automatically as the number of public fungal ITS sequences grows.
A Study of the Rimmer Bifurcation of Symmetric Fixed Points of Reversible Diffeomorphisms

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

We prove that the study of Rimmer bifurcation of symmetric fixed points in two–dimensional discrete reversible dynamical systems can be achieved analysing either bifurcation of critical points of a symmetric Hamiltonian function or the bifurcation of symmetric equilibrium points for a nonconservative reversible vector field. We give the normal forms for generating functions of area preserving reversible diffeomorphisms and the normal forms for nonconservative reversible vector fields associated to Rimmer bifurcation.
Abstract 4662: YYFZBJS ameliorates the progression of colon carcinogenesis in ApcMin/+mice by inhibiting regulatory T-cell generation

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common solid tumor in the world and shows resistance to several immunotherapies, particularly immune checkpoint blockade which has therapeutic effects on many other types of cancer. T cell (Treg) represents one of the main populations of effector immune cells in antitumor immunity, has been considered as a double-edged sword during the progression of colon carcinogenesis. Our previous studies showed that traditional Chinese herbs had potential anticancer effects in improving the quality of life and therapeutic effect. However, little is known whether the mechanism of TCM formula is depended on the Treg-mediate innate immunity. Here, we used C57BL/6 ApcMin/+ mice, an animal model of human intestinal tumorigenesis, to investigate tumor-associated lymphocyte subsets and the mechanisms of their accumulation into gastrointestinal adenomas, and to evaluate the effects of YYFZBJS on the progression of colon carcinogenesis in vivo and in vitro. Compared to unaffected spleen, intestinal lymphatic, and mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN), accumulated CD4+CD25+ FoxP3 positive Treg cells were reduced after YYFZBJS treatment in ApcMin/+ mice. Treatment with YYFZBJS blocked tumor initiation and progression in the transgenic mouse models (ApcMin/+) with less change of body weight and survival rates. Moreover, YYFZBJS significantly reduced the expression of IL-6, IL-10, TGF-β, and other oncogenes markers such as MMP-2, MMP-9, cyclinD1 and c-Myc in Peripheral Blood and adenomatous tissue. In conclusion, we show that the Treg is involved in CRC development and progression and we identify YYFZBJS as a new potential drug target for the treatment of CRC.Note: This abstract was not presented at the meeting.Citation Format: Hua Sui, Kaijuan Gu, Junze Ren, Haotian Wen, Ting Wang, Jing Hu, Liu Yang, Qing Ji, Qi Li.

Factors Influencing Anterior Compartmental Pressure Following High Tibial Osteotomy.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

We monitered the anterior compartmental pressure of the lower leg continuously using the Millar transducer systems following high tibial osteotomy. We measured 8 anterior compartmental pressures [7 women, 1 man, average age 61.3 (50-68) years old] who were diagnosed as seven cases of osteoarthrosis and 1 aseptic necrosis of the medial femoral condyle preoperatively. We measured the anterior compartmental pressure 6 hours postoperatively and investigated factors that influence this pressure. These factors were (1) active and passive dorsiflexion, plantarflexion of the ankle, (2) to elevate and lower the lower limb, (3) to clamp the drain for 1 hour, (4) attachment of venous foot pump to the plantar portion for 1 hour. We found that active dorsi and plantar flexion of the ankle, and clamping the drain increased the anterior compartmental pressure significantly, but elevating the lower limb and attachment of venous foot pump decreased compartmental pressure significantly.
The Huge Role of Tiny Impurities in Nanoscale Synthesis

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Nanotechnology is vital to many current industries, including electronics, energy, textiles, agriculture, and theranostics. Understanding the chemical mechanisms of nanomaterial synthesis has contributed to the tunability of their unique properties, although studies frequently overlook the potential impact of impurities. Impurities can show adverse effects, clouding the interpretation of results or limiting the practical utility of the nanomaterial. On the other hand, as successful doping has demonstrated, the intentional introduction of impurities can be a powerful tool for enhancing the properties of a nanomaterial. This Review examines the complex role of impurities, unintentionally or intentionally added, during nanoscale synthesis and their effects on the performance and usefulness of the most common classes of nanomaterials: nanocarbons, noble metal and metal oxide nanoparticles, semiconductor quantum dots, thermoelectrics, and perovskites.

Low‐profile omnidirectional antenna with broad bandwidth and high gain

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Abstract In this study, a novel low profile wideband omnidirectional antenna is proposed. Horizontal dimension is utilized by introducing annular patches and near‐zero‐index metamaterials, instead of enhancing horizontal gain through increasing the profile of antenna. Measured results illustrate that horizontal gain of this antenna is enhanced to more than 2.5 dBi with 9.81% relative bandwidth (4.97−5.49 GHz) and low profile (0.034λ). Compared with other works, this novel antenna has obvious advantages in electromagnetic characteristics and physical structure, which has great potential in vehicular communications.
Implementation of Intelligent Controller for Maximum Power Point Tracking Control of Solar Power Generation System

Field: Energy (Physical Sciences)

This paper presents the improved model of solar photovoltaic module and back propagation neural network based maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for boost converter in a standalone photovoltaic system under variable temperature and insulation in static and dynamic conditions. Solar panel is a power source having nonlinear internal resistance. As the intensity of light falling on the panel varies, its voltage as well as its internal resistance both varies. To extract maximum power from the panel, the load resistance should be equal to the internal resistance of the panel. Maximum power point trackers are used to operate a photovoltaic panel at its maximum power point in order to increase the system efficiency. This is done, with the aid of MATLAB and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithms is important in PV systems becauseit reduces the PV array cost by reducing the number of PV panels required to achieve the desired outputpower. This paper presents à comparative simulation study of two important MPPT algorithms specifically perturb and observe and incremental conductance. These algorithms are widely used because of its low-cost and ease of realization. Some important parameters such as voltage, current and power output for each different combination have been traced for both algorithms. KEYWORDS: :- Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT), Solar Photovoltaic system (SPV), ANN, SNN, DNN, Boost converter, MATLAB.

On the nature of the compact sources in IRAS 16293-2422 seen in at centimeter to sub-millimeter wavelengths

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

We present multi-epoch continuum observations of the Class 0 protostellar system IRAS 16293-2422 taken with the Very Large Array (VLA) at multiple wavelengths between 7 mm and 15 cm (41 GHz down to 2 GHz), as well as single-epoch Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) continuum observations covering the range from 0.4 to 1.3 mm (700 GHz down to 230 GHz). The new VLA observations confirm that source A2 is a protostar driving episodic mass ejections, and reveal the complex relative motion between A2 and A1. The spectrum of component B can be described by a single power law ($S_ν\propto ν^{2.28}$) over the entire range from 3 to 700 GHz (10 cm down to 0.4 mm), suggesting that the emission is entirely dominated by dust even at $λ$ = 10 cm. Finally, the size of source B appears to increase with frequency up to 41 GHz, remaining roughly constant (at $0''.39$ $\equiv$ 55 AU) at higher frequencies. We interpret this as evidence that source B is a dusty structure of finite size that becomes increasingly optically thick at higher frequencies until, in the millimeter regime, the source becomes entirely optically thick. The lack of excess free-free emission at long wavelengths, combined with the absence of high-velocity molecular emission indicates that source B does not drive a powerful outflow, and might indicate that source B is at a particularly early stage of its evolution.
Purification and characterization of VDE, a site-specific endonuclease from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

The 119-kDa primary translation product of the VMA1 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae undergoes a self-catalyzed rearrangement ("protein splicing") that excises an internal 50-kDa segment of the polypeptide and joins the amino-terminal and carboxyl-terminal segments to generate the 69-kDa subunit of the vacuolar membrane-associated H(+)-ATPase. We have shown previously that the internal segment is a site-specific endonuclease (Gimble, F. S., and Thorner, J. (1992) Nature 357, 301-306). Here we describe methods for the high level expression and purification to near homogeneity of both the authentic VMA1-derived endonuclease (or VDE) from yeast (yield 18%) and a recombinant form of VDE made in bacteria (yield 29%). Detailed characterization of these preparations demonstrated that the yeast-derived and bacterially produced enzymes were indistinguishable, as judged by: (a) behavior during purification; (b) apparent native molecular mass (50 kDa); (c) immunological reactivity; and (d) catalytic properties (specific activity; cleavage site recognition; and optima for pH, temperature, divalent cation and ionic strength). The minimal site required for VDE cleavage was delimited to a 30-base pair sequence within its specific substrate (the VMA1 delta vde allele).
Health-related Quality of Life with Emotional and Behavioral Outcomes in Renal Transplant Recipients: A Study from a Tertiary Center in North India

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction: Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients suffering from end-stage renal disease and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is routinely used for measuring the outcome. Although the generic HRQoL questionnaire provides useful information on multiple dimensions, they fail to capture emotional and behavioral components of well-being, which is supplemented by the Transplant Effects Questionnaire (TxEQ). The present research studies the impact of these two questionnaires on various parameters affecting the health of kidney transplant recipients. Methodology: This cross-sectional study included 500 postrenal transplant patients within 5 years of transplant (18–70 years) evaluating HRQoL using a Short Form Survey-36 Questionnaire and emotional/behavioral outcomes using a TxEQ. Results: Mean age of participants was 44.92 ± 5.86 years and males constituted the majority (>75%). The mean physical component score (PCS) was 41.3 ± 9.2 and the mental component score (MCS) was 48.1 ± 8.4. The highest score was observed for bodily pain, followed by role limitations attributable to emotional problems (RE). The PCS was significantly higher among younger participants, among males, among participants who have got a transplant >24 months ago, and among participants who had serum creatinine levels <2 mg/dl (*P < 0.05). However, the mental component score did not differ significantly in any of the matched variables. In TxEQ, medication adherence had the highest mean score, followed by perceived responsibility toward others. Conclusion: In our study, we concluded that reduced physical functioning among female gender, illiterate patients, with increasing age, in employed section, and with associated comorbidities such as hypertension and with a history of rehospitalization.
