The sperm motility, effective survival time, survival index, catalase （CAT）, the total anti-oxidative capacity （T-AOC） and malondialdehyde （MDA） levels were evaluated. The results showed that there were significant interaction effects between diluents and breeds on the boar sperm motility （P〈0.001）, survival time （P〈0.001）, CAT levels （P〈0.001） and T-AOC levels （P〈0.001）, but neither effects nor interaction effects between diluents and breeds on survival index （P〉0.05）. All of the parameters varied significantly with the increase of the storage time （P〈0.001）. The survival time increased 12.9% in Yorkshire boar semen diluted with Diluent III than with Diluent II, while the survival time increased 6.6% in Landrace boar semen diluted with Diluent II than with Diluent III. Both CAT and T-AOC levels were significantly positive correlated with sperm motility in all the three boar breeds （P〈0.001）, while MDA levels were significantly negative correlated with sperm motility （P〈0.001）. These results indicated that Diluent III and Diluent II were the optimal commercial diluents for Yorkshire and Landrace boar semen stored at 17 ℃, respectively.展开更多

In this study, 10 healthy Chinese Holstein cows were randomly assigned to two groups and fed with different diets respectively, corn straw （CS） or mixed forage （MF） diet. CS group was fed roughage consisting of 53.8% corn straw only and the forge to concentrate （F ： C） ratio [dry matter （DM）] was about 40： 60. MF group was fed roughage consisting of 3.7% Chinese wildrye and 23.4% alfalfa hay, the forge to concentrate （F ： C） ratio （DM） was 70： 30. All the cows were fed 8 weeks and body weight, dry matter intake, body condition score, fat, protein, lactose, milk yield, total solid and somatic cell count （SCC） were recorded. Quantitative real-time PCR （qRT-PCR） was used to analyze cow mammary gland samples representing two different diets. The results suggested that different diet types had significant effects on milk yield, lactose, milk fat, milk protein, dry matter intake and somatic cell count in dairy cows, and cows fed MF diet improved milk production and lactation performance clearly （P〈0.05）. In addition, mRNA expression of genes ACC, roTOR, STATS, CSN2, PPAR）,, FABP3 and PTEN in MF group was extremely significantly higher than that in CS group （P〈0.05）. mRNA expression ofAKT1, FAS, SCD and SREBPlc in MF group was significantly higher than that in CS group （P〈0.01）. In summary, the milk yield and composition in mixed forage group were significantly improved than those in corn straw group.展开更多

文摘Objective:Autism spectrum disorder(ASD)has become an increasingly serious global public health challenge,with a continuously rising disease burden and marked sex differences.This study aims to evaluate the long-term trends and global distribution patterns of sex differences in the burden of ASD and to project future changes,thereby providing evidence for ASD prevention and management.Methods:Based on the Global Burden of Disease(GBD)2021 data,disability-adjusted life years(DALYs)for ASD were extracted for 204 countries and territories.Combined with the sociodemographic index(SDI),the average annual percentage change(AAPC)was used to analyze sex differences in temporal trends and spatial distribution of ASD burden from 1990 to 2021,and to project trends from 2022 to 2050.Results:From 1990 to 2021,the global age-standardized DALY rate(ASDR)for ASD was significantly higher in males than in females,and this pattern is projected to persist through 2050.The absolute difference(AD)in ASDR ranged from 103.5 to 105.3 per 100000,and the relative difference(RD)ranged from 1.0 to 1.1,with the most pronounced sex differences observed in East Asia and high-SDI regions.The male ASDR showed an increasing trend from 1990 to 2021,whereas the female ASDR is projected to increase after 2021,particularly in Africa.In 2021,global DALYs for ASD peaked among children under 5 years of age(221.9 per 100000 in males and 112.8 per 100000 in females),and the relative difference in DALYs increased with age.The absolute difference in DALYs during adulthood generally declined but increased among young adults and those aged≥70 years,consistent with the pattern observed for relative differences.At the national level,sex differences were positively correlated with SDI and universal health coverage(UHC),and negatively correlated with the gender inequality index(GII)(all P<0.001).Spain,Japan,Singapore,South Korea,and China were identified as outliers to these associations.Conclusion:Sex differences in the burden of ASD persist globally and increase with age.Targeted prevention and control strategies tailored to different sexes and age groups are warranted.
文摘Evaluation of Gamma Index Analysis for Detecting Errors in Patient-specific Quality Assurance in Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy Taylan Tugrul1(1.Department of Radiation Oncology,Medicine Faculty of Van YüzüncüYıl University,Van,Turkey)Abstract:Quality assurance practices performed before treatment are believed to identify various potential errors.In this study,2-dimensional(2D)dosimetric results were analyzed by making some intentional mistakes in six different treatment plans.In this way,the detectability of errors was investigated.In all segments of all treatment plans,one of the multileaf collimators was kept fixed at different positions on the central axis.In addition to multileaf collimators error,gantry error was also examined in the study.The dose distribution results obtained by Treatment Planning System(TPS)were compared with those obtained by the 2D array device,both as local calculation and global calculation methods,using the gamma analysis method.When the results are examined in the case where the Multi-leaf collimators(MLC)is fixed at the 1 cm position.
文摘针对低空经济发展涉及的安全管理问题,在总结低空经济相关技术路线原理及落地方案的运行经验,分析低空安防普适性的4个建设方案:雷达与通感一体技术融合方案、广播式自动相关监视技术方案、远程识别技术方案和基于TDOA(time difference of arrival)无线电技术的多源融合方案的基础上,构建无人飞行器探测技术评价指标体系,并建立了一种基于决策试验评估实验室(decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory, DEMATEL)和优劣解距离法(technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution, TOPSIS)的多属性评价方法。结果发现,以TDOA为基础的多源融合方案是构建城市低空安防体系的有效路径和普适性方案。研究表明,低空安防体系的建设是一个系统性工程,需要政府、企业和社会各方的共同努力,在技术、数据、运营等多个层面进行整合,以适应未来低空经济的发展需求。
