A large relative aperture is essential to improve the spatial resolution of zoom systems. To overcome the limitations of the existing off-axis reflective mechanical zoom system with a low zoom rate and a small relative aperture, this paper proposes a non-axis movement method for increasing the degrees of freedom. On the basis of nodal aberration theory, passive eccentricity is changed into active eccentricity to achieve wave aberration balance in the multiple structures of the zoom imaging system.

Latifolin, one of the major flavonoids extracted from lignum dalbergiae odoriferae, has been documented to protect the heart from acute myocardial ischemia induced by pituitrin and isoproterenol in rats and has also been found to inhibit inflammation. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether latifolin could protect the heart from doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity and elucidate its underlying mechanisms. Male mice were treated with an intraperitoneal dose of DOX (20 mg/kg) plus oral latifolin at a dose of 50 or 100 mg/kg for 12 days.
