[Altitude Distribution Characteristics of Farmland Soil Bacteria in Loess Hilly Region of Ningxia].

It is of great significance for the conservation of biodiversity in farmland ecosystems to study the diversity, structure, functions, and biogeographical distribution of soil microbes in farmland and their influencing factors. High-throughput sequencing technology was used to analyze the distribution characteristics of soil bacterial diversity, community structure, and metabolic function along elevation and their responses to soil physicochemical properties in farmland in the loess hilly areas of Ningxia. The results showed that:① The Alpha diversity index of soil bacterial was significantly negatively correlated with elevation ( < 0.

Study protocol: a multicentre, prospective, phase II trial of isotoxic hypofractionated concurrent chemoradiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer.

Introduction: Concurrent chemoradiotherapy with conventional fractionation has been acknowledged as one of the standard treatments for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The radiotherapy dose of 60 Gy is far from enough for local tumour control. Due to this fact, hypofractionated radiotherapy can shorten the total treatment duration, partially counteract the accelerated repopulation of tumour cells and deliver a higher biological effective dose, it has been increasingly used for NSCLC.

Thermal preparation of lysozyme-imprinted microspheres by using ionic liquid as a stabilizer.

Thermal preparation of lysozyme-imprinted microspheres was firstly investigated by using biocompatible ionic liquid (IL) as a thermal stabilizer. The imprinted microspheres made with IL could obtain the good recognition ability to template protein, whereas the imprinted polymer synthesized in the absence of it had a similar adsorption capacity to the non-imprinted one. Furthermore, the preparation conditions of imprinted polymers (MIPs) including the content of IL, temperature of polymerization, and types of functional monomers and crosslinkers were systematically analyzed via circular dichroism spectrum and activity assay.

Development of software for human muscle force estimation.

Muscle force estimation (MFE) has become more and more important in exploring principles of pathological movement, studying functions of artificial muscles, making surgery plan for artificial joint replacement, improving the biomechanical effects of treatments and so on. At present, existing software are complex for professionals, so we have developed a new software named as concise MFE (CMFE). CMFE which provides us a platform to analyse muscle force in various actions includes two MFE methods (static optimisation method and electromyographic-based method).

[Digital medicine and computer-aided surgery].

Digital medicine is an important development of the modern medicine and the computer-aided surgery is an important part of the digital medicine. Applications of digital techniques in the computer aided preoperative planning are elucidated in the paper. Techniques of computer-aided design and computer aided manufacture have been widely used in the fields of customized prosthesis replacement, design and manufacture of customized surgical tools and medical auxiliary instruments and here some clinical cases are introduced.
