Soil is the foundation of agricultural production. Rapid analysis of soil nutrients, using near infrared spectral analysis technology, can guide process of agricultural production. Developing near-infrared measuring system with discrete wavelength will change the extensive operation situation of agricultural production. First, the spectra of 85 black soil samples of northeast China, collected by FOSS XDS near-infrared spectrometer were analyzed using the correlation spectra and successive projection algorithm. Then, the characteristic wavelengths of total nitrogen and organic matter were obtained. After that the authors collected the spectra of soil samples using the measuring system with high signal to noise ratio (SNR) that the authors developed. The calibration models for total nitrogen and organic matter were established. The root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) of total nitrogen and organic matter is 0.019% and 0.36% respectively, and the correlation coefficient of prediction (R(P)) is 0.851 and 0.923, respectively. Experimental results indicate that the characteristic wavelengths for total nitrogen and organic matter can be obtained through the near infrared spectra analyses. The measuring system can be used for soil nutrient analysis and lays the foundation for the industrial applications.

Reverse flotation separation of muscovite from apatite using a dodecylpyridinium chloride (DPDC) ionic liquid as the collector was studied in this work. The microflotation results depicted that DPDC had a strong collecting for muscovite but had a slight collecting for apatite when using phosphoric acid as a depressant for apatite in a weakly acidic pH value pulp, artificial mixture mineral flotation showed that reverse flotation separation of muscovite from apatite can be effectively achieved in the reagent scheme of phosphoric acid/DPDC, and DPDC had a better separation performance in the muscovite/apatite system than DDA. The adsorption measurements indicated that the adsorption amount of DPDC on the apatite surface was less than that of DPDC on the muscovite surface, and the zeta potential results confirmed that a strong interaction occurred between DPDC and the muscovite surface, while an extremely weak interaction occurred between DPDC and the apatite surface in the presence of phosphoric acid at pH ∼ 5.

Background: Healthcare-based social need screening and referral (S&R) among adult populations has produced equivocal results regarding social need resource connection.
Objective: Assess the efficacy of S&R on resource connection (primary outcome) and unmet need reduction (secondary outcome).
Design: Intention-to-treat randomized controlled trial.

Purpose: To evaluate the effects of four-dimensional noise reduction filtering using a similarity algorithm (4D-SF) on the image quality and tumor visibility of low-dose dynamic computed tomography (CT) in evaluating breast cancer.
Materials And Methods: Thirty-four patients with 38 lesions who underwent low-dose dynamic breast CT and were pathologically diagnosed with breast cancer were enrolled. Dynamic CT images were reconstructed using iterative reconstruction alone or in combination with 4D-SF.

Introduction: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in valgus knees is challenging. Optimal ligament balance, implant neutral or moderate valgus alignment are crucial but conventional instrumentations usually lead to outliers. Robotic arm assisted TKA (RATKA) advantages could answer this challenge.
