As a natural oil, horse oil has unique biological activity ingredients and therapeutic characteristics, which has important application value and market potential in healthcare, food, skin care and other fields. However, fraud is rampant in the horse oil market, and traditional methods such as chemical analysis and physical property detection are time-consuming, costly, and have low accuracy in detecting adulteration. Excessive adulteration may cause health risks, skin problems, and economic losses.

Predicting the remaining useful life (RUL) of bearings is crucial for maintaining the reliability and availability of mechanical systems. Constructing health indicators (HIs) is a fundamental step in the methodology for predicting the RUL of rolling bearings. Traditional HI construction often involves determining the degradation stage of the bearing by extracting time-frequency domain features from raw data using a priori knowledge and setting artificial thresholds; this approach does not fully utilize the vibration information in the bearing data.

Article Synopsis
  • Superconducting qubits can get messed up by tiny energy sources that break apart the pairs of particles needed for superconductivity, making a problem known as "quasiparticle poisoning."
  • Researchers found that a silicon crystal glued to its holder has way more low-energy sound events (called phonons) compared to a similar crystal that wasn't glued, which could affect how well these systems work.
  • The extra phonon events in the glued crystal get less frequent over time, suggesting that the stress from the glue is causing these disturbances and may be impacting other scientific devices too.

Gearbox fault diagnosis is essential in the maintenance and preventive repair of industrial systems. However, in actual working environments, noise frequently interferes with fault signals, consequently reducing the accuracy of fault diagnosis. To effectively address this issue, this paper incorporates the noise attenuation of the DRSN-CW model.

Article Synopsis
  • Neuroinflammation and oxidative stress from microglia contribute to chronic temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), especially following kainic acid-induced seizures.
  • Dextromethorphan (DM), even at ultra-low doses, demonstrated significant anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects, reducing seizure frequency and cognitive impairment in affected rats.
  • Long-term benefits of DM persisted even after treatment stopped, likely due to its ability to inhibit harmful microglial activity.

The application of mulching film has significantly contributed to improving agricultural output and benefits, but residual film has caused severe impacts on agricultural production and the environment. In order to realize the accurate recycling of agricultural residual film, the detection of residual film is the first problem to be solved. The difference in color and texture between residual film and bare soil is not obvious, and residual film is of various sizes and morphologies.

Mechanical anisotropy and point defects would greatly affect the product quality while producing silicon wafers via diamond-wire cutting. For three major orientations concerned in wafer production, their mechanical performances under the nanoscale effects of a point defect were systematically investigated through molecular dynamics methods. The results indicated anisotropic mechanical performance with fracture phenomena in the uniaxial deformation process of monocrystalline silicon.

Amongst the rare-earth perovskite nickelates, LaNiO (LNO) is an exception. While the former have insulating and antiferromagnetic ground states, LNO remains metallic and non-magnetic down to the lowest temperatures. It is believed that LNO is a strange metal, on the verge of an antiferromagnetic instability.

Inflammation is implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) is a ligand-activated membrane-bound receptor, which induces an inflammatory response, thus serving a crucial role in the pathogenesis of DN. The present study aimed to determine whether a TLR2 agonist, PamCysSK modulates the development of DN.

A fiber ring resonator is the key element in a resonant fiber optic gyroscope (RFOG). Both reflection and loss characteristics can severely decrease the accuracy of the RFOG. This paper first implements optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) to measure the reflection and loss coefficients of the hybrid air-core photonic-bandgap fiber (PBF) ring resonator.

China's livestock and poultry productions have changed significantly in the last three decades, from mainly traditional and small-scale systems in early 1980s towards more intensive and industrialized ones in recent years, due to the booming economy and the changes in people' diet. There is an urgent need to increase the understanding of the changes in the livestock and poultry productions and the impact of manure recycle on the environment. Here, we reported on a systematic and quantitative analysis on the temporal and spatial variability of livestock and poultry productions and manure nutrients in Shanxi Province, China, using a large database and a coupled food chain nutrient flow model (NUFER) with GIS.

A novel hybrid integrated scheme is proposed for a high-performance resonant micro-optic gyro (RMOG), which requires a low-loss micro-ring resonator for mass production. A new record for the RMOG is established experimentally with a short fiber ring resonator and an integrated signal detecting and processing circuit. The finesse of the short fiber ring resonator with a length of 60 cm and a diameter of 4.

It is well-known that the closed-loop operation in optical gyros offers wider dynamic range and better linearity. By adding a stair-like digital serrodyne wave to a phase modulator can be used as a frequency shifter. The width of one stair in this stair-like digital serrodyne wave should be set equal to the optical transmission time in the resonator, which is relaxed in the hybrid digital phase modulation (HDPM) scheme.

Objective: To investigate the significance of monitoring procalcitonin (PCT) when applying antibiotics to trichlorethylene (TCE)-induced dermatitis.

Methods: One hundred and two patients who were hospitalized and recovered from TCE-induced dermatitis in our hospital from 2006 to 2013 were enrolled as subjects. Based on whether the PCT level was monitored or not, we divided patients into regular group and PCT group.
