Synergies between the circular economy and carbon emission reduction.

Climate change and sustainable development drive transformation in economic development models. Carbon emission reduction and the circular economy propel climate change and sustainable development, yet it's unclear if they synergize or counteract each other. This study examines the question from theoretical and practical perspectives.

Cross-modality cerebrovascular segmentation based on pseudo-label generation via paired data.

Accurate segmentation of cerebrovascular structures from Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA), Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA), and Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) is crucial for clinical diagnosis of cranial vascular diseases. Recent advancements in deep Convolution Neural Network (CNN) have significantly improved the segmentation process. However, training segmentation networks for all modalities requires extensive data labeling for each modality, which is often expensive and time-consuming.

3D Vascular Segmentation Supervised by 2D Annotation of Maximum Intensity Projection.

Vascular structure segmentation plays a crucial role in medical analysis and clinical applications. The practical adoption of fully supervised segmentation models is impeded by the intricacy and time-consuming nature of annotating vessels in the 3D space. This has spurred the exploration of weakly-supervised approaches that reduce reliance on expensive segmentation annotations.

Hierarchy performance assessment of industrial solid waste utilization - tracking resource recycling and utilization centers in China.

The massive production and accumulation of industrial solid waste (ISW) have led to environmental pollution and natural resource underutilization. China's efforts to build trial industrial waste resource utilization centers provide strong support for sustainable development. However, these centers and the factors driving ISW utilization have yet to be evaluated.

Rapid Increase in China's Industrial Ammonia Emissions: Evidence from Unit-Based Mapping.

Ammonia (NH) is an important precursor of secondary inorganic aerosols and greatly impacts nitrogen deposition and acid rain. Previous studies have mainly focused on the agricultural NH emissions, while recent research has noted that industrial sources could be significant in China. However, detailed estimates of NH emitted from industrial sectors in China are lacking.

Urban ecological transition: The practice of ecological civilization construction in China.

Ecological civilization construction is an essential means of achieve sustainable development in China. It promotes not only the decoupling of environmental degradation from economic development, but additionally the coupling of positive ecological development with economic development. Presently, most of the research on ecological civilization focuses on its indices and evaluation methods.

11,20-Dihy-droxy-3-oxopregna-1,4-dien-21-oic acid monohydrate.

The title compound, C(21)H(28)O(5)·H(2)O, is the hydrate of a steroid derivative and was obtained by degradation of solid prednisolone sodium phosphate. The six C atoms in ring A are nearly co-planar with a mean deviation of 0.015 Å.
