Real-time monitoring and prediction of remote operator fatigue in plateau deep mining based on dynamic Bayesian networks.

Fatigue can cause human error, which is the main cause of accidents. In this study, the dynamic fatigue recognition of unmanned electric locomotive operators under high-altitude, cold and low oxygen conditions was studied by combining physiological signals and multi-index information. The characteristic data from the physiological signals (ECG, EMG and EM) of 15 driverless electric locomotive operators were tracked and tested continuously in the field for 2 h, and a dynamic fatigue state evaluation model based on a first-order hidden Markov (HMM) dynamic Bayesian network was established.

Mendelian randomization analysis reveals causal relationship between depression, antidepressants and benign paroxysmal vertigo.

Benign paroxysmal vertigo (BPV) is a common cause of dizziness, and some patients are comorbid with psychiatric disorders such as depression, requiring intervention with antidepressants. However, the causal association between BPV, depression and antidepressants has not been clearly established. We used two-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) to analyze the causal association between BPV, depression, and antidepressants.

Pinocembrin activation of DPP9 inhibits NLRP1 inflammasome activation to alleviate cerebral ischemia/reperfusion-induced lung and intestinal injury.

After stroke, there is a high incidence of acute lung injury and impairment of intestinal barrier function. In this research, the effects of pinocembrin on organ injuries induced by cerebral ischemia-reperfusion were investigated in mice with middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) and further explored the possible mechanism. The potential targets of pinocembrin against MCAO/R were obtained by online tools.

It is a dynamic and reversible process involving several enzymes, such as methyltransferases, demethylases, and methylation reader proteins.

Association of red cell distribution width/albumin ratio and in hospital mortality in patients with atrial fibrillation base on medical information mart for intensive care IV database.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiac arrhythmia. The ratio of red cell distribution width (RDW) to albumin has been recognized as a reliable prognostic marker for poor outcomes in a variety of diseases. However, the evidence regarding the association between RDW to albumin ratio (RAR) and in hospital mortality in patients with AF admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) currently was unclear.
