Various low-concentration inert gases, including 222Rn, 133Xe, and 85Kr, pollute the atmosphere near nuclear facilities (e.g., nuclear power plants or reprocessing plants). Owing to the detection limits of instruments, it has become urgent to determine the concentration of these gases efficiently and perform their online monitoring. However, current technologies are limited by low enrichment efficiencies. In this study, a high-pressure, low-flow, large-volume, and high-efficiency adsorption method has been proposed along with a high-temperature, low-pressure, high-flow, and small-volume rapid desorption and collection method, which are based on the gas enrichment principle of activated carbon. The results demonstrated that when dynamic adsorption was implemented using a two-level enrichment method, the final desorbed gas concentration was proportional to the volume ratio of both the large and small activated carbon beds. At a volume ratio of 15:1, 222Rn concentration increased from 110 to 21,016 Bq m-3 after the two-level enrichment; meanwhile, 222Rn concentration increased from 110 to 42,012 Bq m-3 after three-level enrichment. The three-level enrichment technology provides technical support for the enrichment of low-concentration inert gases in the environment, while offering an important technical foundation for improving the monitoring of low-concentration inert gases in specific environments as well as the atmospheric environment.

Article Synopsis
- Seawater intrusion (SWI) significantly enhances the movement of microplastics into coastal aquifers, raising environmental concerns in Laizhou Bay.
- The study found that microplastics migrate from nearshore marine areas to groundwater along the SWI flow, with additional transport to brine from past saltwater intrusion.
- A risk assessment revealed moderate ecological risks linked to microplastics from SWI, identifying local fisheries, tourism, and agriculture as key sources contributing to groundwater pollution.

To decrease subjective interference and improve the construction efficiency of the traditional weapon and equipment index system, an index system construction method based on target detection is proposed in combination with the equipment test video data. The three-level index system of combat effectiveness of a certain type of equipment is established, and various intelligent assessment methods are proposed. Firstly, an optimaized IPSO-BP network model is proposed, in which dynamic weights are set to improve the particle search network, and adaptive learning factors are introduced to optimize the update speed.

Medical image segmentation is crucial for medical image processing and the development of computer-aided diagnostics. In recent years, deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been widely adopted for medical image segmentation and have achieved significant success. UNet, which is based on CNNs, is the mainstream method used for medical image segmentation.

The material basis and mechanism of Chaenomelis Fructus in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis(RA) were explored by network pharmacology, and the potential anti-RA targets of Chaenomelis Fructus were verified by molecular docking and animal experiments. The active components and targets of Chaenomelis Fructus were searched against the Traditional Chinese Medicine System Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform. GeneCards, DisGeNET, and OMIM were used to obtain RA-related targets.
