This study compared Sheng Xue Ning (SXN) tablets with ferrous succinate (FS) tablets in terms of their efficacy for the treatment of iron-deficient renal anemia and safety in patients subject to maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). A total of 94 patients undergoing MHD were randomly assigned to an experiment group (receiving oral SXN tablets, SXN group) and a control group (orally given FS tablets, FS group) and followed up for 12 weeks. Erythropoietin (EPO) was used in both groups. The efficacy was assessed by detecting the subsequent changes in hemoglobin (Hb), serum iron (SI), SF and transferrin saturation (TSAT). At the 12th week, Hb and TSAT levels in both groups were significantly increased compared to those in the screening period (P<0.05). However, no significant difference in Hb and TSAT was found between the two groups. The average weekly EPO dosage used was lower in SXN group than in FS group (P<0.05) at the 10th week and the 12th week. Our study showed that SXN tablets can effectively ameliorate renal anemia and keep iron metabolism stable in MHD patients, and its efficacy is virtually close to that of FS tablets. Meanwhile, SXN tablets can reduce the dosage of EPO and have a good safety profile.

Study on dynamic compression characteristics of coal containing gas under different strain rates.
Sci Rep
January 2025
State Key Laboratory of Mining Response and Disaster Prevention and Control in Deep Coal Mines, Anhui University of Science and Technology, Huainan, 232001, Anhui, China.
Article Synopsis
- A new dynamic and static combined loading test system was developed to study how gas-containing coal behaves under different geological conditions, focusing on triaxial dynamic compression tests.
- The effects of strain rate and gas pressure were significant, with lower gas pressures extending the plastic deformation stage at high strain rates, while higher pressures increased brittleness.
- The research revealed that the damage in gas-containing coal primarily occurs through tensile-shear mechanisms, and higher strain rates and gas pressures influence peak stress and strain, aiding in understanding and managing related hazards.
Relationship between the morphology of the posterior pole of the eyeball and changes in choroidal structure and blood flow in myopia.

Background: The eyeball axial length (AL) is an important biological indicator of myopia, which has been widely studied. However, little research has been conducted on the relationship between eye shape and fundus structural changes in myopia. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the shape of the posterior pole of the eye, and choroidal characteristics by comparing with the relationship between AL and choroidal characteristics.

Article Synopsis
- * The presence of SiO glass beads in the system improved discharge efficiency, resulting in a 39.02% increase in discharge charge and a 15% increase in output power compared to using plasma alone.
- * The catalyst created a 'microreaction zone' that enhanced gas turbulence and optimized CO conversion, reaching ratios of 20.64% for CO conversion, 15.74% for CO generation, and improving energy efficiency to 1.864%, while facilitating the generation of excited-state CO and oxygen vacancies.
A Candy Defect Detection Method Based on StyleGAN2 and Improved YOLOv7 for Imbalanced Data.

Quality management in the candy industry is a vital part of food quality management. Defective candies significantly affect subsequent packaging and consumption, impacting the efficiency of candy manufacturers and the consumer experience. However, challenges exist in candy defect detection on food production lines due to the small size of the targets and defects, as well as the difficulty of batch sampling defects from automated production lines.

To scientifically and effectively manage exhaust pollution in underground confined spaces and reduce hazards from personnel exhaust exposure, a systematic study of the distribution characteristics of diesel locomotive exhaust emissions in mines is needed. Aiming at large underground coal mining operations, an experimental platform for the physical simulation of vehicle exhaust transport in restricted spaces is designed and created. The Hongliulin Coal Mine in Shaanxi Province, China, is used as a prototype, and the platform consists of a coal mining face system, ventilation system, exhaust emission system, monitoring and surveillance system, and control platform.
