An improve crested porcupine algorithm for UAV delivery path planning in challenging environments.

With the rapid advancement of drone technology and the growing applications in the field of drone engineering, the demand for precise and efficient path planning in complex and dynamic environments has become increasingly important. Traditional algorithms struggle with complex terrain, obstacles, and weather changes, often falling into local optima. This study introduces an Improved Crown Porcupine Optimizer (ICPO) for drone path planning, which enables drones to better avoid obstacles, optimize flight paths, and reduce energy consumption.

Light-Induced Dynamic Activation of Copper/Silicon Interface for Highly Selective Carbon Dioxide Reduction.

Numerous studies have shown a fact that phase transformation and/or reconstruction are likely to occur and play crucial roles in electrochemical scenarios. Nevertheless, a decisive factor behind the diverse photoelectrochemical activity and selectivity of various copper/silicon photoelectrodes is still largely debated and missing in the community, especially the possibly dynamic behaviors of metal catalyst/semiconductor interface. Herein, through in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy and transmission electron microscope, a model system of Cu nanocrystals with well-defined facets on black p-type silicon (BSi) is unprecedentedly demonstrated to reveal the dynamic phase transformation of forming irreversible silicide at Cu nanocrystal-BSi interface during photoelectrocatalysis, which is validated to originate from the atomic interdiffusion between Cu and Si driven by light-induced dynamic activation process.

Propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia improves survival compared to desflurane anesthesia in gastric cancer surgery: A retrospective analysis.

Surgical management of cancer may induce stress and increase the likelihood of cancer metastasis and recurrence. Appropriate surgical and anesthetic techniques may affect the patient's outcome. Although numerous studies have been performed, conflicting results have been obtained regarding the effect of anesthetic techniques on the outcome of patients with cancer.

[Effect of branch chain amino acid enriched formula on postoperative fatigue and nutritional status after digestive surgery].

Objective: To evaluate the effect of branch chain amino acid (BCAA) enriched formula on nutritional status and postoperative fatigue for digestive surgery patients.

Methods: Forty patients who underwent digestive surgery were randomly received parenteral nutrition with either BCAA enriched (study group, n=20) or routine amino acid (control group, n=20) for seven consecutive days. Nitrogen balance,serum total protein, albumin, prealbumin, transferrin, retinol binding protein and postoperative fatigue score were monitored during the postoperative period.

[Surgical treatments of preoperative unsuspected gallbladder carcinoma].

Objective: To explore the surgical treatment of preoperative unsuspected gallbladder carcinoma (UGC) and its prognosis.

Methods: Eighteen patients of UGC admitted in our hospital from January 1996 to December 2003 were analyzed retrospectively. The clinicopathological characters and surgical treatment of UGC patients were compared with the preoperative diagnosed gallbladder carcinoma (DGC) patients admitted in the same period.

Metastasis of primary gallbladder carcinoma in lymph node and liver.

Aim: To evaluate the patterns with metastasis of gallbladder carcinoma in lymph nodes and liver.

Methods: A total of 45 patients who had radical surgery were selected. The patterns with metastasis of primary gallbladder carcinoma in lymph nodes and liver were examined histopathologically and classified as TNM staging of the American Joint Committee on Cancer.

Differential expression of human Dlg in cervical intraepithelial neoplasias.

Objectives: To evaluate the potential role of human discs large (hDlg) protein in the pathogenesis of cervical neoplasia by examining the changes of hDlg protein expression in normal cervical epithelium as well as various stages of cervical dysplasia.

Materials And Method: Archived formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded cervical tissue sections with known status of human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection were examined for hDlg expression using immunohistochemical staining by a monoclonal antibody generated against hDlg. The specimens include normal epithelium, low-grade and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions, and squamous cell carcinoma.
