Compressors are important production equipment in the petrochemical industry, and the accuracy of their fault diagnosis is critical. In order to detect and diagnose compressor equipment faults in a timely manner, this paper constructs a deep residual shrinkage visual network (DRS-ViT). The network comprises a modified residual network (ResNet) and a vision transformer (ViT).

It provides a new idea for the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Our study showed that the gut microbial community of PCOS with high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC) has a noticeable imbalance.

Methods: A total of 180 patients with DOR diagnosed from December 2013 to December 2014 were equally assigned into progynova and duphaston (E+D) group, Zuogui Pill group and BYHD group with 60 cases in each by computerized randomization. Patients received E+D, Zuogui Pill or BYHD for 12 months, respectively.
Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine syndrome with poorly understood mechanisms. To provide patients with PCOS with individualized therapy, it is critical to precisely diagnose the phenotypes of the disease. However, the criteria for diagnosing the different phenotypes are mostly based on symptoms, physical examination and laboratory results.

Liparis japonica (Orchidaceae) is a widespread terrestrial photosynthetic orchid in Northeast China. Previously, we found the genetic diversity of this species has been reduced recent years due to habitat destruction and fragmentation, but little was known about the relationship between this orchid species and the mycorrhizal fungi.

In this study, HepG2 cells were incubated with serum from diabetic rats induced by streptozotocin, and the activity of CYP3A4 was measured by substrate metabolism. Results showed that incubation with diabetic serum significantly induced CYP3A4 activity in HepG2 cells.

Methods: Caco-2 cells were exposed to NO donors for designated times. P-gp function and expression were assessed using Rhodamine123 uptake assay and Western blotting, respectively.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the contributions of impaired cytochrome P450 and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) activity and expression to drug pharmacokinetics under diabetic conditions. Diabetes was induced in rats with the intraperitoneal administration of streptozocin. Glibenclamide (GLB), a substrate of BCRP, served as a model drug.

The aim of this study was to investigate effects of diabetes mellitus on function and expression of multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (Mrp2) in rat liver, kidney and intestine. Diabetic rats were induced by an intraperitoneal administration of streptozotocin (65 mg/kg) and randomly divided into diabetic (DM) rats and insulin-treated diabetic rats.

Methods: Diabetic rats were prepared via a single dose of streptozocin (65 mg/kg, ip). Abcb1/P-GP mRNA and protein expression levels in tissues were evaluated using quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (QRT-PCR) analysis and Western blot, respectively.
