Article Synopsis
  • - The study analyzes how the varying strength of coal seams affects hydraulic fracturing during coal mining, essential for energy security and industrial growth.
  • - Experimental results show that stronger seams cause higher pressure during water injection, wider fractures, and significant changes in coal behavior as fractures move from weak to strong seams.
  • - The research validates findings through both physical tests and numerical simulations, demonstrating that fractures behave differently when moving between seams of differing strengths, affecting pressure and rigidity.

Objective: To observe the levels of serum 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT), neuronal PAS domain protein 4 (NPASDP-4), and S100β protein in patients diagnosed with cerebral infarction and analyze their correlation with cognitive dysfunction in these patients.

Methods: The study included a cohort of 158 patients suffering from cerebral infarction who were admitted to the Liwan District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between January 2021 and December 2022. After stabilizing vital signs, all patients underwent the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) to assess their cognitive function.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma(ccRCC) is the most common type of renal cell carcinoma. While it is curable when detected at an early stage, some patients presented with advanced disease have poor prognosis. We aimed to identify key genes and miRNAs associated with clinical prognosis in ccRCC.

Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is an effective and well accepted procedure for the treatment of large and complex renal calculi. We encountered a patient with a misplaced percutaneous nephrostomy drainage tube (PNDT) into the contralateral renal vein resulting thrombus formation after undergoing right side PCNL. We placed a temporary filter to prevent embolism and started anti-coagulation therapy immediately and finally the PNDT was removed without bleeding.
