RESUMO
The prevalence of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus 1 (PRRSV1) isolates has continued to increase in Chinese swine herds in recent years. However, no effective control strategy is available for PRRSV1 infection in China. In this study, we generated the first infectious cDNA clone (rHLJB1) of a Chinese PRRSV1 isolate and subsequently used it as a backbone to construct an ORF2-6 chimeric virus (ORF2-6-CON). This virus contained a synthesized consensus sequence of the PRRSV1 ORF2-6 gene encoding all the envelope proteins. The ORF2-6 consensus sequence shared > 90% nucleotide similarity with four representative strains (Amervac, BJEU06-1, HKEU16 and NMEU09-1) of PRRSV1 in China. ORF2-6-CON had replication efficacy similar to that of the backbone rHLJB1 virus in primary alveolar macrophages (PAMs) and exhibited cell tropism in Marc-145 cells. Piglet inoculation and challenge studies indicated that ORF2-6-CON is not pathogenic to piglets and can induce enhanced cross-protection against a heterologous SD1291 isolate. Notably, ORF2-6-CON inoculation induced higher levels of heterologous neutralizing antibodies (nAbs) against SD1291 than rHLJB1 inoculation, which was concurrent with a higher percentage of T follicular helper (Tfh) cells in tracheobronchial lymph nodes (TBLNs), providing the first clue that porcine Tfh cells are correlated with heterologous PRRSV nAb responses. The number of SD1291-strain-specific IFNγ-secreting cells was similar in ORF2-6-CON-inoculated and rHLJB1-inoculated pigs. Overall, our findings support that the Marc-145-adapted ORF2-6-CON can trigger Tfh cell and heterologous nAb responses to confer improved cross-protection and may serve as a candidate strain for the development of a cross-protective PRRSV1 vaccine.

The pursuit of fabricating high-performance graphene films has aroused considerable attention due to their potential for practical applications. However, developing both stretchable and tough graphene films remains a formidable challenge. To address this issue, we herein introduce mechanical bond to comprehensively improve the mechanical properties of graphene films, utilizing [2]rotaxane as the bridging unit. Under external force, the [2]rotaxane cross-link undergoes intramolecular motion, releasing hidden chain and increasing the interlayer slip distance between graphene nanosheets. Compared with graphene films without [2]rotaxane cross-linking, the presence of mechanical bond not only boosted the strength of graphene films (247.3 vs 74.8â MPa) but also markedly promoted the tensile strain (23.6 vs 10.2 %) and toughness (23.9 vs 4.0â MJ/m3). Notably, the achieved tensile strain sets a record high and the toughness surpasses most reported results, rendering the graphene films suitable for applications as flexible electrodes. Even when the films were stretched within a 20 % strain and repeatedly bent vertically, the light-emitting diodes maintained an on-state with little changes in brightness. Additionally, the film electrodes effectively actuated mechanical joints, enabling uninterrupted grasping movements. Therefore, the study holds promise for expanding the application of graphene films and simultaneously inspiring the development of other high-performance two-dimensional films.
RESUMO
Pietraszewski proposes four triadic "primitives" for representing social groups. We argue that, despite surface differences, these triads can all be reduced to similar underlying welfare trade-off ratios, which are a better candidate for social group primitives. Welfare trade-off ratios also have limitations, however, and we suggest there are multiple computational strategies by which people recognize and reason about social groups.
RESUMO
The seismic effects on sloped terrain, which are of paramount importance for engineering design and earthquake risk mitigation, have always been a central focus of earthquake engineering research. In this study, generalized geometric models of loess ridges at varying heights were created, and a three-dimensional nonlinear numerical model was established using FLAC3D. Seismic ground motion time histories at different frequencies and actual earthquake ground motion records were input into the model to analyze the peak acceleration amplification effects experienced by the surface of loess ridges when subjected to SV waves. The study's outcomes reveal that seismic amplification on the slopes of loess ridges is characterized by non-linearity with respect to slope height. Instead, it exhibits rhythmic variations, with the rate of change in these rhythms increasing in correspondence with the frequency of seismic motion and the height of the slope. Under low-intensity seismic motion, a linear increase in acceleration amplification is observed at the ridge's crest concerning the height of the loess ridge. However, under high-intensity seismic motion, the relationship between amplification and slope height becomes less significant. Typically, the peak acceleration at the ridge's crest is reported to be 1.5 to 2.5 times that observed at the slope's base. The amplification effect at the ridge's crest is more pronounced in the low-frequency and high-frequency segments when compared to the mid-frequency range. Conversely, significant amplification is observed in the high-frequency range in the lower sections of the slope near the base. It is further noted that the amplification effect at the ridge's crest displays distinct behavior at different frequencies, characterized by narrow frequency bands of maximum amplification, with peak amplification factors exceeding 10 in some cases. These research findings have practical significance and provide valuable references for engineering construction and seismic risk mitigation planning in loess regions.

OBJECTIVE: We systematically assessed prediction models for the risk of in-hospital and 30-day mortality in post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) patients. DESIGN: Systematic review and narrative synthesis. DATA SOURCES: Searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, CNKI, Wanfang Database, VIP Database and SinoMed for literature up to 31 August 2023. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: The included literature consists of studies in Chinese or English involving PCI patients aged ≥18 years. These studies aim to develop risk prediction models and include designs such as cohort studies, case-control studies, cross-sectional studies or randomised controlled trials. Each prediction model must contain at least two predictors. Exclusion criteria encompass models that include outcomes other than death post-PCI, literature lacking essential details on study design, model construction and statistical analysis, models based on virtual datasets, and publications such as conference abstracts, grey literature, informal publications, duplicate publications, dissertations, reviews or case reports. We also exclude studies focusing on the localisation applicability of the model or comparative effectiveness. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS: Two independent teams of researchers developed standardised data extraction forms based on CHecklist for critical Appraisal and data extraction for systematic Reviews of prediction Modelling Studies to extract and cross-verify data. They used Prediction model Risk Of Bias Assessment Tool (PROBAST) to assess the risk of bias and applicability of the model development or validation studies included in this review. RESULTS: This review included 28 studies with 38 prediction models, showing area under the curve values ranging from 0.81 to 0.987. One study had an unclear risk of bias, while 27 studies had a high risk of bias, primarily in the area of statistical analysis. The models constructed in 25 studies lacked clinical applicability, with 21 of these studies including intraoperative or postoperative predictors. CONCLUSION: The development of in-hospital and 30-day mortality prediction models for post-PCI patients is in its early stages. Emphasising clinical applicability and predictive stability is vital. Future research should follow PROBAST's low risk-of-bias guidelines, prioritising external validation for existing models to ensure reliable and widely applicable clinical predictions.

BACKGROUND: Exposure to air pollution has been associated with increased risks of cardiopulmonary diseases, cancer, and mortality, whereas residing near green spaces may reduce the risks. However, limited research explores their combined effect on oxidative stress. METHODS: A total of 251 participants with multi-time measurements were included in the longitudinal-designed study. Personal gaseous air pollutants (CO, NO, NO2, and O3,) and particulate pollution (PM1, PM2.5, and PM10) were measured and followed in two 7-day windows while ambient exposure levels and urine samples were collected simultaneously. Participants' Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) was estimated and used to represent greenness exposure. Urinary oxidative stress biomarkers include free malondialdehyde (MDA), total MDA, and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). Linear mixed-effects models were used to independently and jointly estimate the associations of greenness and air pollution with oxidative stress biomarkers. RESULTS: We found consistent positive associations of personal ozone (O3) exposure with 8-OHdG percent changes, and this association was modified by gender and outdoor activity frequency. Consistent positive associations of personal lag 2-day carbon monoxide (CO) exposure with the percent changes of the three oxidative stress biomarkers were significant. We additionally observed that individuals who lived in greener areas had lower levels of urinary-free and total MDA. Participants in the highest NDVI tertile had 0.38 and 0.46 lower free and total MDA levels, [95â¯% CI: (-0.70, -0.05) and (-0.78, -0.13)], compared to the lowest NDVI tertile. There was also evidence indicating the modification effects by area, education, and outdoor activity frequency on associations between NDVI exposure and creatinine adjusted free MDA (all Pfor interactionâ¯<â¯0.05). Additional greenness modification effects on personal O3 exposure with urinary 8-OHdG was observed. CONCLUSION: Our study provides biological evidence of the modification effect of the built environment on the impact of air pollution.
RESUMO
Due to a rapidly aging global population, osteoporosis and the associated risk of bone fractures have become a wide-spread public health problem. However, osteoporosis is very heterogeneous, and the existing standard diagnostic measure is not sufficient to accurately identify all patients at risk of osteoporotic fractures and to guide therapy. Here, we constructed the first prospective multi-omics atlas of the largest osteoporosis cohort to date (longitudinal data from 366 participants at three time points), and also implemented an explainable data-intensive analysis framework (DLSF: Deep Latent Space Fusion) for an omnigenic model based on a multi-modal approach that can capture the multi-modal molecular signatures (M3S) as explicit functional representations of hidden genotypes. Accordingly, through DLSF, we identified two subtypes of the osteoporosis population in Chinese individuals with corresponding molecular phenotypes, i.e., clinical intervention relevant subtypes (CISs), in which bone mineral density benefits response to calcium supplements in 2-year follow-up samples. Many snpGenes associated with these molecular phenotypes reveal diverse candidate biological mechanisms underlying osteoporosis, with xQTL preferences of osteoporosis and its subtypes indicating an omnigenic effect on different biological domains. Finally, these two subtypes were found to have different relevance to prior fracture and different fracture risk according to 4-year follow-up data. Thus, in clinical application, M3S could help us further develop improved diagnostic and treatment strategies for osteoporosis and identify a new composite index for fracture prediction, which were remarkably validated in an independent cohort (166 participants).
RESUMO
Porcine kobuvirus (PKV) is an enteric virus commonly detected in both diarrheic and healthy pigs. Little is known about the role of PKV in enteric diseases. In this study, an epidemiological investigation based on 324 intestinal samples collected from six provinces of China during the period of 2018 to 2022 was performed, and showed that PKV has an overall 65.43% (212/324) positive rate. Noticeably, 89.47% (17/19) of PKV and porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) double-positive pigs were clinically diseased, while 91.71% (177/193) of PKV-positive but PEDV-negative pigs were clinically healthy, suggesting that PKV infection in itself is unlikely to cause enteric diseases. In addition, three PKV genomes were obtained from both diseased and healthy pigs. Phylogenetic analysis showed that Chinese PKV strains could be divided into three groups (SH-W-CHN-like, S-1-HUN-like and JXAT2015-like strains). All three obtained PKV genomes belong to SH-W-CHN-like strains and JSYZ1806-158 was detected as a recombinant virus. Furthermore, multiple comparisons showed that nucleotide similarities are clearly lower than amino acid similarities for PKV polyproteins. Selective pressure analysis indicated that Chinese PKV polyproteins are predominantly under negative selection. Overall, this study provided new insights into the prevalence and evolution of PKV in both diarrheic and healthy pigs in China.
RESUMO
Atmospheric chemistry studies suggest air pollution impedes ultraviolet B photons and thus reduces cutaneous vitamin D3 synthesis. Biological evidence shows that inhaled pollutants disrupt circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) metabolism and ultimately impact bone health. The hypothesis is that higher air pollution concentrations are associated with a higher risk of fractures, mediated by lower circulating 25(OH)D. The study included participants of the UK Biobank who were free of fracture history at enrollment (2006 to 2010) and analyzed their environmental exposure data (2007 to 2010). Air pollution measurements included the annual averages of air particulate matter (PM2.5 , PM2.5-10 , and PM10 ), nitrogen oxides (NO2 and NOx ), and a composite air pollution score. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the associations of the individual pollutants and the score with fracture risks. Mediation analyses were conducted to assess the underlying role of serum 25(OH)D in such associations. Among 446,395 participants with a median of 8-year follow-up, 12,288 incident fractures were documented. Participants living in places with the highest quintile of air pollution score had a 15.3% increased risk of fractures (hazard ratio [95%CI]: 1.15[1.09,1.22]) compared to those in the lowest, and 5.49% of this association was mediated through serum 25(OH)D (pmediation < 0.05). Pollutant-specific hazard of top-to-bottom quintiles was 16% for PM2.5 , 4% for PM2.5-10 , 5% for PM10 , 20% for NO2 , and 17% for NOx , with a 4% to 6% mediation effect of serum 25(OH)D concentrations. The associations of the air pollution score with fracture risks were weaker among female participants, those who drank less alcohol, and consumed more fresh fruit than their counterparts (pinteraction < 0.05). © 2023 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is a major causative pathogen of diarrheic disease. In this study, the prevalence and evolution of PEDV was evaluated using intestinal samples collected from six provinces of China in 2019-2022. PEDV could not only be detected in diarrheic piglets but also in adult pigs without enteric diseases. The complete genomes of five temporal and geographical representative PEDV strains were determined. Genome-based phylogenetic analysis indicated that XJ1904-700 belongs to the G2-a subgroup, while the other strains are clustered within the S-INDEL subgroup. Recombination analyses supported that JSNJ2004-919 is an inter-subgroup recombinant from SD2014-like (G2-b), CHZ-2013-like (G2-b) and CV777-like (G1-b) isolates, while FJFZ2004-1017 is an intra-subgroup recombinant from XM1-2-like (S-INDEL) and LYG-2014-like (S-INDEL) isolates. Both JSNJ2004-919 and FJFZ2004-1017 were from adult pigs, providing evidence that adult pigs may also serve as the host of PEDV reservoirs for virus evolution. Overall, this study provides new insights into PEDV's prevalence and evolution in both diseased piglets and clinically healthy adult pigs.
RESUMO
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus 1 (PRRSV-1) has been prevalent in more than 20 provinces of China. However, no PRRSV-1-specific vaccine is commercially available in China. To evaluate the feasibility of using a low virulent PRRSV-1 isolate against potential outbreaks caused by virulent Chinese PRRSV-1 isolates, here we evaluated the efficacy of a low virulent PRRSV-1 HLJB1 strain isolated in 2014 as live vaccine against a virulent PRRSV-1 SD1291 strain isolated in 2022. Genome-based phylogenetic analysis showed that both HLJB1 and SD1291 were grouped within BJEU06-1-like isolates. However, they shared only 85.27% genomic similarity. Piglet inoculation and challenge study showed that HLJB1 inoculation could reduce viremia but did not significantly alleviate clinical signs and tissue lesions. Virus neutralization test indicated that HLJB1 inoculation could induce homologous neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) but no heterologous NAbs at 42 dpi. In addition, flow cytometric analyses showed that no memory T follicular helper (Tfh) cells against SD1291 and SD1291-specific IFN-γ secreting cells were induced by HLJB1 pre-inoculation. These results supported that HLJB1 inoculation only provides partial cross-protection against SD1291 infection even though they are clustered within the same PRRSV-1 subgroup, which is closely related to the failure in conferring cross-protective adaptive immune responses.
RESUMO
The New Rural Cooperative Medical System (NRCMS) is one of the essential systems for ensuring public health in rural China. This paper investigates the effect of farmers' participation in the NRCMS on their subjective well-being and its mechanisms using data from the Chinese General Social Survey 2017. The results show that farmers' participation in the NRCMS significantly enhances their subjective well-being, and these results remain robust after regression with the instrumental variables method and propensity score matching method. Further analysis of the mechanisms suggests that participation in the NRCMS can enhance farmers' subjective well-being by increasing their consumption levels other than medical consumption. Moreover, medical consumption levels play a negative role in participating in the NRCMS on farmers' subjective well-being, which can be explained as the "masking effect." The regression results of the subsamples show that the higher a farmer's income is, the less his or her participation in the NRCMS enhances subjective well-being. And the effect of participation in the NRCMS on farmers' subjective well-being is not significant if their health status is too high or too low.

Aiming at the problem of the weak dynamic performance of the gradient descent method in the attitude and heading reference system, the susceptibility to the interference of accelerometers and magnetometers, and the complex calculation of the nonlinear Kalman Filter method, an extended Kalman filter suitable for a low-cost magnetic, angular rate, and gravity (MARG) sensor system is proposed. The method proposed in this paper is a combination of a two-stage gradient descent algorithm and the extended Kalman filter (GDEKF). First, the accelerometer and magnetometer are used to correct the attitude angle according to the two-stage gradient descent algorithm. The obtained attitude quaternion is combined with the gyroscope measurement value as the observation vector of EKF and the calculated attitude of the gyroscope and the bias of the gyroscope are corrected. The elimination of the bias of the gyroscope can further improve the stability of the attitude observation results. Finally, the MARG sensor system was designed for mathematical model simulation and hardware-in-the-loop simulation to verify the performance of the filter. The results show that compared with the gradient descent method, it has better anti-interference performance and dynamic performance, and better measurement accuracy than the extended Kalman filter.
RESUMO
In global climate change, improving carbon productivity holds great importance for China's sustainable growth. Based on panel data of 30 Chinese provinces and cities from 1997-2017, the drivers, spatial effects, and convergence characteristics of carbon productivity in China are explored by combining a factor decomposition framework and a spatial panel model. The findings show that (1) China's carbon productivity shows continuous positive growth, and the substitution effect of capital for energy dominates this changing pattern; (2) There is a ß-convergence trend and club convergence in China's carbon productivity, and the spatial technology spillover accelerates the convergence rate; (3) With its accelerated industrial transformation and technological upgrading, China's current carbon productivity converges faster than its earlier stage, and the role of physical capital investment has gradually shifted to suppression. In contrast, the positive push of human capital investment has been strengthened; (4) From the perspective of the realization mechanism, the convergence of carbon productivity in China mainly comes from the convergence of energy restructuring and capital-energy substitution. These findings can help China narrow the inter-provincial carbon productivity gap in terms of improving factor structure, upgrading technology, etc., and provide references for sustainable growth decision making in China and around the world.

This paper studies the measurement of motion parameters of a parachute scanning platform. The movement of a parachute scanning platform has fast rotational velocity and a complex attitude. Therefore, traditional measurement methods cannot measure the motion parameters accurately, and thus fail to satisfy the requirements for the measurement of parachute scanning platform motion parameters. In order to solve these problems, a method for measuring the motion parameters of a parachute scanning platform based on a combination of magnetic and inertial sensors is proposed in this paper. First, scanning motion characteristics of a parachute-terminal-sensitive projectile are analyzed. Next, a high-precision parachute scanning platform attitude measurement device is designed to obtain the data of magnetic and inertial sensors. Then the extended Kalman filter is used to filter and observe errors. The scanning angle, the scanning angle velocity, the falling velocity, and the 2D scanning attitude are obtained. Finally, the accuracy and feasibility of the algorithm are analyzed and validated by MATLAB simulation, semi-physical simulation, and airdrop experiments. The presented research results can provide helpful references for the design and analysis of parachute scanning platforms, which can reduce development time and cost.
RESUMO
We examined a collection of 386 animal, 451 human, and 109 archived bioaerosol samples with a new pan-species coronavirus molecular assay. Thirty-eight (4.02%) of 946 specimens yielded evidence of human or animal coronaviruses. Our findings demonstrate the utility of employing the pan-CoV RT-PCR assay in detecting varied coronavirus among human, animal, and environmental specimens. This RT-PCR assay might be employed as a screening diagnostic for early detection of coronaviruses incursions or prepandemic coronavirus emergence in animal or human populations.
RESUMO
Soft soil is a special type of under-consolidated soil widely distributed in coastal areas of China. In recent years, with the rapid development of Tianjin, an increasing number of public and civil buildings have been built on soft soil. Soft soil poses an imperceptible risk to the safety of buildings in the area. This paper statistically analyzes the physical and dynamic properties of soft soil in Tianjin, and gives the corresponding range values. The results are as follows. (1) Except for the liquidity index, there is a certain correlation between other physical properties; (2) analyzed by experiment, the effects of consolidation time, consolidation ratio, and effective confining pressure on the dynamic shear modulus ratio and damping ratio of soft soil are given. (3) A model of the relationship between shear wave velocity and burial depth of clay and silty clay in the region is given. (4) The influence of different kinetic parameters on the design response spectrum is analyzed. The work described in this article is valuable for workers engaged in soft soil research.
RESUMO
A sensitive mass spectrometric analysis method based on the microwave plasma technique is developed for the fast detection of trace rare earth elements (REEs) in aqueous solution. The plasma was produced from a microwave plasma torch (MPT) under atmospheric pressure and was used as ambient ion source of a linear ion trap mass spectrometer (LTQ). Water samples were directly pneumatically nebulized to flow into the plasma through the central tube of MPT. For some REEs, the generated composite ions were detected in both positive and negative ion modes and further characterized in tandem mass spectrometry. Under the optimized conditions, the limit of detection (LOD) was at the level 0.1 ng/mL using MS(2) procedure in negative mode. A single REE analysis can be completed within 2~3 minutes with the relative standard deviation ranging between 2.4% and 21.2% (six repeated measurements) for the 5 experimental runs. Moreover, the recovery rates of these REEs are between the range of 97.6%-122.1%. Two real samples have also been analyzed, including well and orange juice. These experimental data demonstrated that this method is a useful tool for the field analysis of REEs in water and can be used as an alternative supplement of ICP-MS.
