| 1 | Artificial intelligence in healthcare:past,present and future显示文摘Artificial intelligence(AI)aims to mimic human cognitive functions.It is bringing a paradigm shift to healthcare,powered by increasing availability of healthcare data and rapid progress of analytics techniques.We survey the current status of AI applications in healthcare and discuss its future.AI can be applied to various types of healthcare data(structured and unstructured).Popular AI techniques include machine learning methods for structured data,such as the classical support vector machine and neural network,and the modern deep learning,as well as natural language processing for unstructured data.Major disease areas that use AI tools include cancer,neurology and cardiology.We then review in more details the AI applications in stroke,in the three major areas of early detection and diagnosis,treatment,as well as outcome prediction and prognosis evaluation.We conclude with discussion about pioneer AI systems,such as IBM Watson,and hurdles for real-life deployment of AI. | Fei Jiang Yong Jiang Hui Zhi Yi Dong Hao Li Sufeng Ma Yilong Wang Qiang Dong Haipeng Shen Yongjun Wang | 2017 | Stroke & Vascular Neurology2017,2,4: | 76 |
| 2 | Effect of artificial aeration on the performance of vertical-flow constructed wetland treating heavily polluted river water显示文摘Three lab-scale vertical-flow constructed wetlands(VFCWs),including the non-aerated(NA),intermittently aerated(IA) and continuously aerated(CA) ones,were operated at different hydraulic loading rates(HLRs) to evaluate the effect of artificial aeration on the treatment efficiency of heavily polluted river water.Results indicated that artificial aeration increased the dissolved oxygen(DO) concentrations in IA and CA,which significantly favored the removal of organic matter and NH 4 +-N.The DO grads caused by intermittent aeration formed aerobic and anoxic regions in IA and thus promoted the removal of total nitrogen(TN).Although the removal efficiencies of COD Cr,NH 4 +-N and TN in the three VFCWs all decreased with an increase in HLR,artificial aeration enhanced the reactor resistance to the fluctuation of pollutant loadings.The maximal removal efficiencies of COD Cr,NH 4 +-N and total phosphorus(TP)(i.e.,81%,87% and 37%,respectively) were observed in CA at 19 cm/day HLR,while the maximal TN removal(i.e.,57%) was achieved in IA.Although the improvement of artificial aeration on TP removal was limited,this study has demonstrated the feasibility of applying artificial aeration to VFCWs treating polluted river water,particularly at a high HLR. | Huiyu Dong Zhimin Qiang Tinggang Li Hui Jin Weidong Chen | 2012 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2012,24,4: | 38 |
| 3 | Application and prospects of butylphthalide for the treatment of neurologic diseases显示文摘Objective: The 3-N-butylphthalide (NBP) comprises one of the chemical constituents of celery oil. It has a series of pharmacologic mechanisms including reconstructing microcirculation, protecting mitochondrial function, inhibiting oxidative stress, inhibiting neuronal apoptosis, etc. Based on the complex multi-targets of pharmacologic mechanisms of NBP, the clinical application of NBP is increasing and more clinical researches and animal experiments are also focused on NBP. The aim of this review was to comprehensively and systematically summarize the application of NBP on neurologic diseases and briefly summarize its application to non-neurologic diseases. Moreover, recent progress in experimental models of NBP on animals was summarized. Data sources: Literature was collected from PubMed and Wangfang database until November 2018, using the search terms including '3-N-butylphthalide,''microcirculation,''mitochondria,''ischemic stroke,''Alzheimer disease,''vascular dementia,''Parkinson disease,''brain edema,''CO poisoning,''traumatic central nervous system injury,''autoimmune disease,''amyotrophic lateral sclerosis,''seizures,''diabetes,''diabetic cataract,' and 'atherosclerosis.' Study selection: Literature was mainly derived from English articles or articles that could be obtained with English abstracts and partly derived from Chinese articles. Article type was not limited. References were also identified from the bibliographies of identified articles and the authors’ files. Results: NBP has become an important adjunct for ischemic stroke. In vascular dementia, the clinical application of NBP to treat severe cognitive dysfunction syndrome caused by the hypoperfusion of brain tissue during cerebrovascular disease is also increasing. Evidence also suggests that NBP has a therapeutic effect for neurodegenerative diseases. Many animal experiments have found that it can also improve symptoms in other neurologic diseases such as epilepsy, cerebral edema, and decreased cognitive function caused by severe acute carbon monoxide poisoning. Moreover, NBP has therapeutic effects for diabetes, diabetes-induced cataracts, and non-neurologic diseases such as atherosclerosis. Mechanistically, NBP mainly improves microcirculation and protects mitochondria. Its broad pharmacologic effects also include inhibiting oxidative stress, nerve cell apoptosis, inflammatory responses, and anti-platelet and anti-thrombotic effects. Conclusions: The varied pharmacologic mechanisms of NBP involve many complex molecular mechanisms;however, there many unknown pharmacologic effects await further study. | Xi-Qian Chen Ke Qiu Hui Liu Qiang He Jia-Hui Bai Wei Lu | 2019 | Chinese Medical Journal2019,,12: | 39 |
| 4 | Anisotropic coding metamaterials and their powerful manipulation of differently polarized terahertz waves显示文摘Metamaterials based on effective media can be used to produce a number of unusual physical properties(for example,negative refraction and invisibility cloaking)because they can be tailored with effective medium parameters that do not occur in nature.Recently,the use of coding metamaterials has been suggested for the control of electromagnetic waves through the design of coding sequences using digital elements‘0’and‘1,'which possess opposite phase responses.Here we propose the concept of an anisotropic coding metamaterial in which the coding behaviors in different directions are dependent on the polarization status of the electromagnetic waves.We experimentally demonstrate an ultrathin and flexible polarization-controlled anisotropic coding metasurface that functions in the terahertz regime using specially designed coding elements.By encoding the elements with elaborately designed coding sequences(both 1-bit and 2-bit sequences),the x-and y-polarized waves can be anomalously reflected or independently diffused in three dimensions.The simulated far-field scattering patterns and near-field distributions are presented to illustrate the dual-functional performance of the encoded metasurface,and the results are consistent with the measured results.We further demonstrate the ability of the anisotropic coding metasurfaces to generate a beam splitter and realize simultaneous anomalous reflections and polarization conversions,thus providing powerful control of differently polarized electromagnetic waves.The proposed method enables versatile beam behaviors under orthogonal polarizations using a single metasurface and has the potential for use in the development of interesting terahertz devices. | Shuo Liu Tie Jun Cui Quan Xu Di Bao Liangliang Du Xiang Wan Wen Xuan Tang Chunmei Ouyang Xiao Yang Zhou Hao Yuan Hui Feng Ma Wei Xiang Jiang Jiaguang Han Weili Zhang Qiang Cheng | 2016 | Light(Science & Applications)2016,5,1: | 36 |
| 5 | Therapy and prognostic features of primary clear cell carcinoma of the liver显示文摘AIM:To clarify the therapeutic strategies and prognosis factors of primary clear cell carcinoma of the liver(PCCCL) . METHODS:The clinical pathological data of 64 patients with PCCCL treated with hepatectomy in our hospital from January 2000 to January 2006 were analyzed retrospectively.The patients were divided into two groups to make treatment analysis:curative resection only(n=40) ;and curative resection and postoperative chemotherapy with calcium folinate and tegafur(n= 24) .Meanwhile,the PCCCL patients were subdivided into two subgroups on the basis of the proportion of clear cells in the tumor for pathological analysis.There were 36 cases in subgroup A for which the proportion of clear cells was more than 70%,and 28 cases in subgroup B for which the proportion was less or equal to 70%,comparing analysis of median survival time of the counterpart groups.Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to examine factors that affect-ed clinical prognosis,recurrence and metastasis. RESULTS:Median survival period of the curative surgery group was 38 mo,while the counterpart was 41 mo.Median survival period for group A was 41 mo,while group B was 19 mo.The Kaplan-Meier method showed that capsule formation,preoperative liver function,hepatitis C virus infection,large vascular invasion and multiple tumor occurrences were related to disease-free survival.Cox regression analysis showed that the clear cell ratio,capsule formation,preoperative liver function and large vascular invasion were independent risk factors for overall survival. CONCLUSION:Postoperative chemotherapy has no obvious effect on survival of patients with PCCCL. Clear cell ratio,capsule formation,preoperative liver function,and vascular invasion were independent risk factors for prognosis. | Ji, Sheng-Pu Li, Qiang Dong, Hui | 2010 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2010,16,6: | 28 |
| 6 | Oxymatrine liposome attenuates hepatic fibrosis via targeting hepatic stellate cells显示文摘AIM:To investigate the potential mechanism of ArgGly-Asp(RGD) peptide-labeled liposome loading oxymatrine(OM) therapy in CCl 4-induced hepatic fibrosis in rats.METHODS:We constructed a rat model of CCl 4 induced hepatic fibrosis and treated the rats with different formulations of OM.To evaluate the antifibrotic effect of OM,we detected levels of alkaline phosphatase,hepatic histopathology(hematoxylin and eosin stain and Masson staining) and fibrosis-related gene expression of matrix metallopeptidase(MMP)-2,tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase(TIMP)-1 as well as type Ⅰ procollagen via quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.To detect cell viability and apoptosis of hepatic stellate cells(HSCs),we performed 3-(4,5)-dimethylthiahiazo(-z-y1)-3,5-diphenytetrazoliumromide assay and flow cytometry.To reinforce the combination of oxymatrine with HSCs,we constructed fluorescein-isothiocyanate-conjugated Arg-Gly-Asp peptide-labeled liposomes loading OM,and its targeting of HSCs was examined by fluorescent microscopy.RESULTS:OM attenuated CCl 4-induced hepatic fibrosis,as defined by reducing serum alkaline phosphatase(344.47 ± 27.52 U/L vs 550.69 ± 43.78 U/L,P < 0.05),attenuating liver injury and improving collagen deposits(2.36% ± 0.09% vs 7.70% ± 0.60%,P < 0.05) and downregulating fibrosis-related gene expression,that is,MMP-2,TIMP-1 and type Ⅰ procollagen(P < 0.05).OM inhibited cell viability and induced apoptosis of HSCs in vitro.RGD promoted OM targeting of HSCs and enhanced the therapeutic effect of OM in terms of serum alkaline phosphatase(272.51 ± 19.55 U/L vs 344.47 ± 27.52 U/L,P < 0.05),liver injury,collagen deposits(0.26% ± 0.09% vs 2.36% ± 0.09%,P < 0.05) and downregulating fibrosis-related gene expression,that is,MMP-2,TIMP-1 and type Ⅰ procollagen(P < 0.05).Moreover,in vitro assay demonstrated that RGD enhanced the effect of OM on HSC viability and apoptosis.CONCLUSION:OM attenuated hepatic fibrosis by inhibiting viability and inducing apoptosis of HSCs.The RGD-labeled formulation enhanced the targeting efficiency for HSCs and the therapeutic effect. | Ning-Li Chai Qiang Fu Hui Shi Chang-Hao Cai Jun Wan Shi-Ping Xu Ben-Yan Wu | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,31: | 27 |
| 7 | Main controlling factors and enrichment area evaluation of shale gas of the Lower Paleozoic marine strata in south China显示文摘The Lower Paleozoic shale in south China has a very high maturity and experienced strong tectonic deformation. This character is quite different from the North America shale and has inhibited the shale gas evaluation and exploration in this area. The present paper reports a comprehensive investigation of maturity, reservoir properties,fluid pressure, gas content, preservation conditions, and other relevant aspects of the Lower Paleozoic shale from the Sichuan Basin and its surrounding areas. It is found that within the main maturity range(2.5 %3.5 %) is considered a high risk for shale gas exploration. Taking the southern area of the Sichuan Basin and the southeastern area of Chongqing as examples of uplifted/folded and faulted/folded areas, respectively, geological models of shale gas content and loss were proposed.For the uplifted/folded area with a simple tectonic deformation, the shale system(with a depth >2000 m) has largely retained overpressure during uplifting without a great loss of gas, and an industrial shale gas potential is generally possible. However, for the faulted/folded area with a strong tectonic deformation, the sealing condition of the shalesystem was usually destroyed to a certain degree with a great loss of free gas, which decreased the pressure coefficient and resulted in a low production capacity. It is predicted that the deeply buried shale(>3000 m) has a greater gas potential and will become the focus for further exploration and development in most of the south China region(outside the Sichuan Basin). | Xian-Ming Xiao Qiang Wei Hai-Feng Gai Teng-Fei Li Mao-Lin Wang Lei Pan Ji Chen Hui Tian | 2015 | Petroleum Science2015,12,4: | 27 |

| 9 | Air pollution characteristics and their relationship with emissions and meteorology in the Yangtze River Delta region during 2014–2016显示文摘With rapid economic growth and urbanization, the Yangtze River Delta(YRD) region in China has experienced serious air pollution challenges. In this study, we analyzed the air pollution characteristics and their relationship with emissions and meteorology in the YRD region during 2014–2016. In recent years, the concentrations of all air pollutants, except O3,decreased. Spatially, the PM2.5, PM10, SO2, and CO concentrations were higher in the northern YRD region, and NO2 and O3 were higher in the central YRD region. Based on the number of non-attainment days(i.e., days with air quality index greater than 100), PM2.5 was the largest contributor to air pollution in the YRD region, followed by O3, PM10, and NO2.However, particulate matter pollution has declined gradually, while O3 pollution worsened.Meteorological conditions mainly influenced day-to-day variations in pollutant concentrations. PM2.5 concentration was inversely related to wind speed, while O3 concentration was positively correlated with temperature and negatively correlated with relative humidity.The air quality improvement in recent years was mainly attributed to emission reductions.During 2014–2016, PM2.5, PM10, SO2, NOx, CO, NH3, and volatile organic compound(VOC)emissions in the YRD region were reduced by 26.3%, 29.2%, 32.4%, 8.1%, 15.9%, 4.5%, and0.3%, respectively. Regional transport also contributed to the air pollution. During regional haze periods, pollutants from North China and East China aggravated the pollution in the YRD region. Our findings suggest that emission reduction and regional joint prevention and control helped to improve the air quality in the YRD region. | Tao Ma Fengkui Duan Kebin He Yu Qin Dan Tong Guannan Geng Xuyan Liu Hui Li Shuo Yang Siqi Ye Beiyao Xu Qiang Zhang Yongliang Ma | 2019 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2019,31,9: | 26 |

| 12 | Protective effects of MCP-1 inhibitor on a rat model of severe acute pancreatitis显示文摘BACKGROUND:Chemokines and their receptors play key roles in the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis.This study aimed to establish a rat model of severe acute pancreatitis(SAP) for investigating monocyte chemotactic protein-1(MCP-1) expression in the pathogenesis of the disease.We assessed the effects of the inhibitor of MCP-1,Bindarit,on SAP and explored the mechanisms underlying SAP. METHODS:Seventy-two Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a saline control group(group S),an SAP group (group P),and a Bindarit group(group T).The SAP model was induced by retrograde infusion of 4%sodium taurocholate into the bilio-pancreatic duct.Based on the SAP model,Bindarit was injected intraperitoneally in group T,and 0.5% methyl cellulose was injected intraperitoneally in groups S and P.In group S,saline was retrogradely infused into the bili- pancreatic duct.Serum amylase levels and the histological changes in the pancreas were assessed at different time- points in each group.Expression of MCP-1 in serum was measured by enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay(ELISA). MCP-1 protein and mRNA expression levels were detected by immunohistochemistry,Western blotting,and semi- quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). RESULTS:Serum amylase levels in groups P and T were higher than those in group S.Serum amylase levels were significantly lower in group T than in group P at 6 and 12 hours after operation.The levels of MCP-1 in serum at 6 and 12 hours after operation in group P were significantly higher than in group S,and significantly lower in group T than in group P at 6 and 12 hours after operation.The pathological damage in the pancreas was milder in group T than in group P.MCP-1 protein and mRNA expression levels in the pancreas were higher in groups P and T than in group S.These expression levels were positively correlated with the pathological damage of pancreatic tissues.The activity of MCP-1 in group T was significantly lower than in group P.CONCLUSION:MCP-1 may play important roles in the pathogenesis of SAP.The data suggest that Bindarit ameliorates SAP by inhibiting the activity of MCP-1 in vivo. | Zhou, Guo-Xiong Zhu, Xue-Juan Ding, Xiao-Ling Zhang, Hong Chen, Jian-Ping Qiang, Hui Zhang, Hai-Feng Wei, Qun | 2010 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2010,9,2: | 20 |

| 15 | History and possible mechanisms of prehistoric human migration to the Tibetan Plateau显示文摘Prehistoric human history on the Tibetan Plateau is a hotly debated topic. Archaeological research on the plateau during the past few decades has enormously improved our understanding of the topic and makes it possible for us to consider the processes and mechanisms of prehistoric human migration to the region. By reviewing the published archaeological research on the Tibetan Plateau, we propose that the first people on the plateau initially spread into the He-Huang region from the Chinese Loess Plateau, and then moved to the low elevation Northeastern Tibetan Plateau and perhaps subsequently to the entire plateau. This process consisted of four stages.(1) During the climatic amelioration of the Last Deglacial period(15–11.6 ka BP), Upper Paleolithic hunter-gatherers with a developed microlithic technology first spread into the Northeastern Tibetan Plateau.(2) In the early-mid Holocene(11.6–6 ka BP), Epipaleolithic microlithic hunter-gatherers were widely distributed on the northeastern plateau and spread southwards to the interior plateau, possibly with millet agriculture developed in the neighboring low elevation regions.(3) In the mid-late Holocene(6–4 ka BP), Neolithic millet farmers spread into low elevation river valleys in the northeastern and southeastern plateau areas.(4) In the late Holocene(4–2.3 ka BP), Bronze Age barley and wheat farmers further settled on the high elevation regions of the Tibetan Plateau, especially after 3.6 ka BP. Finally, we suggest that all of the reported Paleolithic sites earlier than the LGM on the Tibetan Plateau need further examination. | ZHANG DongJu DONG GuangHui WANG Hui REN XiaoYan HA PiPu'u QIANG MingRui CHEN FaHui | 2016 | Science China Earth Sciences2016,59,9: | 20 |
| 16 | Surveillance-based evidence:elimination of schistosomiasis as a public health problem in the Peoples’Republic of China显示文摘Background:A steady progress on schistosomiasis control in the Peoples’Republic of China(P.R.China)was achieved and broadened into the twelve-year medium and long term national plan(MLNP)which marled the implementation of an integrated control strategy across all endemic areas in P.R.China in 2004.To understand the endemic trends of schistosomiasis to assess the effectiveness of an integrated strategy,we conducted an analysis of schistosomiasis surveillance data spanned from 2005 to 2015.Methods:The schistosomiasis sentinel surveillance data from sentinel sites were collected and analyzed from 2005 to 2015.In these sentinel sites,residents aged 6 years or above were screened annually by indirect hemagglutination assay(IHA),while only antibody positives were followed by stool examination either Kato-katz method(KK)and/or hatching technique(HT).Domestic animals raised in sentinel sites were examined by HT for confirming the infection of schistosomes.Snail investigation was conducted each year through systematic sampling method combined with environmental sampling method.The snails collected from field were tested by microscopic dissection method.The infection rates of schistosomes in residents,domestic animals and snails,as well as the indicators reflecting the snails’distribution were calculated and analyzed.ANOVA analysis was used to examine the changes of the number of eggs per gram feces in population and Chi-square test was used to examine any change in proportions among groups.Results:A total of 148902 residents from sentinel sites attended this study and 631676 blood samples were examined by IHA test during the 11 covered years.The annual average antibody positive rates presented a significant decrease trends,from 17.48%(95%CI:17.20–17.75%)in 2005 to 5.93%(95%CI:5.71–6.15%)(χ2=8890.47,P<0.001)in 2015.During 2005–2015,the average infection rate of schistosomes in residents declined from 2.07%(95%CI:1.96–2.17%)to 0.13%(95%CI:0.09–0.16%),accompanied by significant decrease of infection intensity in population.In 2015,the stool positives were only found in farmers,fishermen and boatmen with infection rate of 0.16%(95%CI:0.11–0.20%),0.17%(95%CI:0–0.50%)respectively.The infection rate of schistosomes in domestic animals dropped from 9.42%(538/5711,95%CI:8.66–10.18%)to 0.08%(2/2360,95%CI:0–0.20%)from 2005 to 2015.Infections were found in eight species of domestic animals at the beginning of surveillance while only two cattle were infected in 2015.Totally 98 ha of new snail habitats were found,while 94.90%(93/98)distributed in lake and marshland regions.The percentage of frames with snails decreased from 16.96%(56884/335391,95%CI:16.83–17.09%)in 2005 to 4.28%(18121/423755,95%CI:4.22–4.34%)in 2014,with a slightly increase in 2015.Meanwhile,the infection rate of schistosomes in snails was decreased from 0.26%(663/256531,95%CI:0.24–0.28%)to zero during 2005–2015.Conclusions:The infection rate of schistosomes declined significantly,providing evidence that the goal of the MLNP was achieved.Elimination of schistosomiasis as a public health problem defined as WHO was also reached in P.R.China nationwide.Surveillance-response system should be improved and strengthened to realize the final goal of schistosomiasis elimination. | Jing Xu Shi-Zhu Li Li-Juan Zhang Robert Bergquist Hui Dang Qiang Wang Shan Lv Tian-Ping Wang Dan-Dan Lin Jian-Bing Liu Guang-Hui Ren Kun Yang Yang Liu Yi Dong Shi-Qing Zhang Xiao-Nong Zhou | 2020 | Infectious Diseases of Poverty2020,9,3: | 20 |
| 17 | Comparison of Undernutrition Prevalence of Children under 5 Years in China between 2002 and 2013显示文摘Objective To describe the undernutrition status of children under 5-year in China, and study the trend between 2002 and 2013. Methods The study was based on two national surveys. Undernutrition was determined against WHO's 2006 growth standards. The prevalence in 2013 and 2002 was weighted by China sixth National Population Census(2010). The relationship between undernutrition and gender/age groups/different areas use weighted logistic regression. Results The results indicated the overall prevalence of stunting, underweight, and wasting of Chinese children under 5-year was 8.1%, 2.4%, and 1.9% in 2013, respectively. The prevalence of stunting was higher for children aged 12-47 month, while underweight was higher for children aged 48-59 month. The prevalence of undernutrition was higher in rural areas than in urban areas, especially in poor rural areas. There was a decline of stunting, underweight, and wasting between 2002 and 2013 among the children, with greater reduction in rural areas than in urban areas. Conclusion The prevalence of undernutrition of children under 5-year remains high in rural areas especially in poor rural areas in China. It is urgent to take action to control undernutrition in the vulnerable areas and subgroups. | YU Dong Mei ZHAO Li Yun YANG Zhen Yu CHANG Su Ying YU Wen Tao FANG Hong Yun WANG Xun YU Dan GUO Qi Ya XU Xiao Li FANG Yue Hui ZHAO Wen Hua YANG Xiao Guang DING Gang Qiang LIANG Xiao Feng | 2016 | Biomedical and Environmental Sciences2016,29,3: | 18 |
| 18 | Effectiveness of Different Waist Circumference Cut-off Values in Predicting Metabolic Syndrome Prevalence and Risk Factors in Adults in China显示文摘Objective To study the effectiveness of waist circumference cut-off values in predicting the prevalence of metabolic syndrome(MetS) and risk factors in adults in China. Methods A cross-sectional survey was condcuted in 14 provinces(autonomous region, municipality) in China. A total of 47 325 adults aged ≥20 years were selected by multistage stratified sampling, and questionnaire survey and physical and clinical examination were conducted among them. MetS was defined according to the International Diabetes Federation(IDF) criteria and modified IDF criteria.Results The age-standardized prevalence of MetS was 24.2%(22.1% in men and 25.8% in women) and 19.5%(22.1% in men and 18.0% in women) according to the IDF criteria and modified IDF criteria respectively. The age-standardized prevalence of pre-MetS was 8.1%(8.6% in men and 7.8% in women) according to the modified IDF criteria. The prevalence of MetS was higher in urban residents than rural residents and in northern China residents than in southern China residents. The prevalence of central obesity was about 30% in both men and women according to the ethnicity-specific cut-off values of waist circumference for central obesity(90 cm for men and 85 cm for women). Multivariate regression analysis revealed no significant difference in risk factors between the two MetS definitions. Conclusion Using both the modified IDF criteria and ethnicity-specific cut-off values of waist circumference can provide more useful information about the prevalence of MetS in China. | ZHOU Hai Cheng LAI Ya Xin SHAN Zhong Yan JIA Wei Ping YANG Wen Ying LU Ju Ming WENG Jian Ping JI Li Nong LIU Jie TIAN Hao Ming JI Qiu He ZHU Da Long CHEN Li GUO Xiao Hui ZHAO Zhi Gang Li Qiang ZHOU Zhi Guang GE Jia Pu SHAN Guang Liang | 2014 | Biomedical and Environmental Sciences2014,27,5: | 17 |
| 19 | Influence of flue gas cleaning system on characteristics of PM_(2.5)emission from coal-fired power plants显示文摘This study investigated the influence of precipitators and wet flue gas desulfurization equipment on characteristics of PM_(2.5)emission from coal-fired power stations.We measured size distribution and removal efficiencies,including hybrid electrostatic precipitator/bag filters(ESP/BAGs)which have rarely been studied.A bimodal distribution of particle concentrations was observed at the inlet of each precipitator.After the precipitators,particle concentrations were significantly reduced.Although a bimodal distribution was still observed,all peak positions shifted to the smaller end.The removal efficiencies of hybrid ESP/BAGs reached 99%for PM_(2.5),which is considerably higher than those for other types of precipitators.In particular,the influence of hybrid ESP/BAG operating conditions on the performance of dust removal was explored.The efficiency of hybrid ESP/BAGs decreased by 1.9%when the first electrostatic field was shut down.The concentrations and distributions of particulate matter were also measured in three coal-fired power plants before and after desulfurization devices.The results showed diverse removal efficiencies for different desulfurization towers.The reason for the difference requires further research.We estimated the influence of removal technology for particulate matter on total emissions in China.Substituting ESPs with hybrid ESP/BAGs could reduce the total emissions to 104.3 thousand tons,with 47.48 thousand tons of PM_(2.5). | Ao Wang Qiang Song Gongming Tu Hui Wang Yong Yue Qiang Yao | 2014 | International Journal of Coal Science & Technology2014,1,1: | 16 |
| 20 | Designing solid-state interfaces on lithium-metal anodes: a review显示文摘Li-metal anodes are one of the most promising energy storage systems that can considerably exceed the current technology to meet the ever-increasing demand of power applications. The apparent cycling performances and dendrite challenges of Li-metal anodes are highly influenced by the interface layer on the Li-metal anode because the intrinsic high reactivity of metallic Li results in an inevitable solid-state interface layer between the Li-metal and electrolytes. In this review, we summarize the recent progress on the interfacial chemistry regarding the interactions between electrolytes and ion migration through dynamic interfaces. The critical factors that affect the interface formation for constructing a stable interface with a low resistance are reviewed. Moreover, we review emerging strategies for rationally designing multiple-structured solid-state electrolytes and their interfaces, including the interfacial properties within hybrid electrolytes and the solid electrolyte/electrode interface. Finally, we present scientific issues and perspectives associated with Li-metal anode interfaces toward a practical Li-metal battery. | Chen-Zi Zhao Hui Duan Jia-Qi Huang Juan Zhang Qiang Zhang Yu-Guo Guo Li-Jun Wan | 2019 | Science China Chemistry2019,62,10: | 14 |
