The study of the nuclear reaction rate distribution in the MOX core of China Experimental Fast Reactor is a necessary condition for obtaining the operating license. From the characteristics of core structure, both the principle of experimental and experimental system are studies, emphasized on the scheme design such as the size of foils, the irradiation power and counting rate. Firstly, based on the Monte Carlo Code(MCNP)and NJOY codes, the distribution of reaction rates is obtained. MCNP is a general-purpose Monte Carlo N-Particle code that can be used for neutron, photon, electron, and so on. The NJOY nuclear data processing system is a comprehensive computer code package for producing to cross sections and related nuclear parameters from ENDF/B VIII.0 evaluated nuclear data. Secondly, the activity measurement of foils was obtained by HPGE, then the reaction rate is determined by data processing. It is worth mentioning that the experimental reactivity introduction has a negligible effect on the reactor core by MCNP. Finally, a set of activation experiment scheme that is suitable for CEFR MOX core is formed, which serves as a guide to carry out activation method experiments.

Recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) injections combined with Anastrozole are increasingly used to treat adolescent idiopathic short stature (ISS), warranting further research. This study evaluated their effects on height, growth rate and adverse reactions in 72 adolescents with ISS treated at our hospital from December 2021 to December 2022. Patients were divided into a control group (rhGH alone) and a study group (rhGH + Anastrozole).

Background: Proton beam therapy (PBT) has been gradually introduced for treating choroidal melanoma. This study systematically reviewed clinical reports to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PBT in choroidal melanoma patients.
Methods: This systematic review included all the primary studies involving PBT for choroidal melanoma patients through April 2024.

Glycerol carbonate (GC) can be produced from glycerol (GL), a low-value byproduct in the biodiesel industry. In this work, continuous processes of GC production via transesterification from crude GL and diethyl carbonate (DEC) were developed using Aspen Plus. Two cases were considered, and their process performances were compared.

Chronic wounds caused by microbial infection have emerged as a major challenge on patients and medical health system. Bacterial cellulose (BC) characterized by its excellent biocompatibility and porous network, holds promise for addressing complex wound issues. However, lack of inherent antibacterial activity and cross-linking sites in the molecular network of BC have constrained its efficacy in hydrogel design and treatment of bacterial-infected wounds.
