The prediction of a stall precursor in an axial compressor is the basic guarantee to the stable operation of an aeroengine. How to predict and intelligently identify the instability of the system in advance is of great significance to the safety performance and active control of the aeroengine. In this paper, an aerodynamic system modeling method combination with the wavelet transform and gray wolf algorithm optimized support vector regression (WT-GWO-SVR) is proposed, which breaks through the fusion technology based on the feature correlation of chaotic data.

Antibiotic adjuvant rescues antibiotic activity and increases the life span of the antibiotics, representing a more productive, timely, and cost-effective strategy in fighting drug-resistant pathogens. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) from synthetic and natural sources are considered new-generation antibacterial agents.

We found that reduced expression of PICALM in AD and murine brain endothelium correlated with amyloid-β (Aβ) pathology and cognitive impairment. Moreover, Picalm deficiency diminished Aβ clearance across the murine blood-brain barrier (BBB) and accelerated Aβ pathology in a manner that was reversible by endothelial PICALM re-expression.

Recently, mutations in the planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway genes had been implicated in the pathogenesis of NTDs in both the mouse model and in human cohorts. Mouse models indicate that the homozygous disruption of Sec24b, which mediates the ER-to-Golgi transportation of the core PCP gene Vangl2 as a component of the COPII vesicle, will result in craniorachischisis.
