    Abstract The correlation between magnetic Barkhausen noise (MBN) features and the surface hardness of two types of die steels (Cr12MoV steel and S136 steel in Chinese standards) was investigated in this study. Back-propagation neural network (BP-NN) models were established with MBN magnetic features extracted by different methods as the input nodes to realize the quantitative prediction of surface hardness. The accuracy of the BP-NN model largely depended on the quality of the input features. In the extraction process of magnetic features, simplifying parameter settings and reducing manual intervention could significantly improve the stability of magnetic features. In this study, we proposed a method similar to the magnetic Barkhausen noise hysteresis loop (MBNHL) and extracted features. Compared with traditional MBN feature extraction methods, this method simplifies the steps of parameter setting in the feature extraction process and improves the stability of the features. Finally, a BP-NN model of surface hardness was established and compared with the traditional MBN feature extraction methods. The proposed MBNHL method achieved the advantages of simple parameter setting, less manual intervention, and stability of the extracted parameters at the cost of small accuracy reduction.

    Abstract Rationale: Ureteral triplication (UT) is a very rare disorder, with a challenging diagnosis and varied therapeutic methods. In the past, the treatment usually involved heminephrureterectomy of the stunted moiety. Here, we reported a case of complete UT that was treated by laparoscopic triple-ureteral ureteroureterostomy (UU).
    Patient concerns: A 2-year-old girl presented with frequent urine incontinence. Intravenous pyelography and voiding cystourethrography revealed a 3-segment left kidney with pelvi-ureteric dilation of the upper and middle moieties and grade IV to V vesicoureteral reflux. Laparoscopic triple-UU was successfully performed in the child, after which vesicoureteral reflux and urinary incontinence disappeared completely, hydronephrosis was improved, and hemirenal resection was avoided.
    Diagnosis: Based on the imageological examination results, the final diagnosis of the 2-year-old girl was as follows: left 3 renal pelvis with complete ureteral duplication, combined with upper and middle hydronephrosis, and upper and middle vesicoureteral reflux grade IV to V.
    Intervention: Laparoscopic triple-ureteral ureteroureterostomy was performed under general anesthesia.
    Outcomes: The patient recovered smoothly without complications after surgery. At 6 months follow-up, ultrasonography of the urinary system showed that hydronephrosis of the dilated kidney segment was attenuated.
    Lessons: Laparoscopic triple-ureteral UU was successful in our patient. For children with duplex kidney and multiple ureteral duplications, minimally invasive urinary tract reconstruction can be a suitable intervention.

    Abstract Off-resonance tapping (ORT) mode of atomic force microscopy (AFM), based on force-distance curve, is widely concerned due to its advantages of weak tip-sample interaction and concurrent quantitative property mapping. However, the ORT-AFM still has the disadvantage of slow scan speed caused by low modulation frequency. In this paper, we overcome this disadvantage by introducing active probe method. With active probe, the cantilever was directly actuated with the induced strain after applying voltage in the piezoceramic film. In this way, the modulation frequency could be increased to more than an order of magnitude faster than that of traditional ORT, thus improving the scan rate. We demonstrated high-speed multiparametric imaging with the active probe method in ORT-AFM.

    Abstract Enteric bacterial pathogens are a major threat to intestinal health. With the widespread use of antibiotics, bacterial resistance has become a problem, and there is an urgent need for a new treatment to reduce dependence on antibiotics. Butyrate can control enteric bacterial pathogens by regulating the expression of their virulence genes, promoting the posttranslational modification of their proteins, maintaining an anaerobic environment, regulating the host immune system and strengthening the intestinal mucosal barrier. Here, this review describes the mechanisms by which butyrate regulates the pathogenicity of enteric bacterial pathogens from various perspectives and discusses the prospects and limitations of butyrate as a new option for the control of pathogenic bacteria.

    Abstract The combination of multifunctional micromagnetic testing and neural network-based prediction models is a promising way of nondestructive and quantitative measurement of steel surface hardness. Current studies mainly focused on improving the prediction accuracy of intelligent models, but the unavoidable and random uncertainties related to instruments were seldom explored. The robustness of the prediction model considering the repeatability of instruments was seldom discussed. In this work, a self-developed multifunctional micromagnetic instrument was employed to perform the repeatability test with Cr12MoV steel. The repeatability of the instrument in measuring multiple magnetic features under both static and dynamic conditions was evaluated. The magnetic features for establishing the prediction model were selected based on the consideration of both the repeatability of the instrument and the ability of magnetic features in surface hardness evaluation. To improve the robustness of the model in surface hardness prediction, a modelling strategy considering the repeatability of the instrument was proposed. Through removing partial magnetic features with higher mean impact values from input nodes, robust evaluation of surface hardness in Cr12MoV steel was realized with the multifunctional micromagnetic instrument.

    Abstract Rock mechanical properties play an important role in the exploration and development of shale oil reservoirs. To study the rock mechanical properties continuously distributed along the longitudinal direction of the formation, physical and mechanical property data of shales from the Permian Lucaogou Formation of the Junggar Basin were gathered through experimental tests. The regression analysis method was applied to obtain relationships between physical properties and rock mechanical properties. Based on this, new empirical relationships between rock mechanical properties were established. The results show that the uniaxial compressive strength ( UCS ) ranged from 48.40 to 147.86 MPa, the Young’s modulus ( E s ) was between 3.02 and 20.63 GPa, the Poisson’s ratio ( ν s ) ranged from 0.13 to 0.36, the cohesive force ( C ) ranged from 14.65 to 34.60 MPa, and the internal friction angle ( φ ) was between 27.61 and 46.94°. The rock mechanical properties were more sensitive to the P-wave interval transit time (Δt c ) and bulk density ( DEN ). Among them, the UCS was more sensitive to Δt c , while the C , E s , and ν s were more sensitive to Δt c / DEN . For UCS and E s , an exponential function correlation is more reliable than linear expression and power function, whereas for C and ν s , power function and linear expression were adopted for higher accuracy, respectively. Compared with the empirical equations presented in the literature, the empirical equations established in the paper are more accurate and reliable, making them applicable to the Permian Lucaogou Formation shale oil reservoirs in the Jimusar Sag of the Junggar Basin.

    Abstract This study summarizes the process of graph partition sampling algorithm. Through studying, observing, and comparing many different types of graph partition sampling algorithms, this study represents the learning process sampling into three steps: sampling process, aggregation process, and the calculation process of loss function. The medical intelligence system developed in this study must provide remote audio and video connections between patients, nurses, and doctors, and requires hardware, software, and network collaboration. The hardware includes a server that keeps the medical intelligence system running. The software includes the operating system and server application software that provide the basic functions of the system. The network platform provides network bandwidth and basic configuration to achieve effective connections between different parts. At the same time, the system also defines audio and video encoding and decoding standards. Orthopedic patients are often accompanied by varying degrees of activity limitation and low self-care ability, the particularity of these patients puts forward higher requirements for orthopedic clinical care management. Orthopedic clinical nursing path is a standardized nursing management method supported by evidence-based medicine. In order to meet the requirements of the system design, the goal of the system design is to use the latest computing and network communication technology to organically "connect" the nursing staff, the nursing staff, and the hospital, so that the nursing staff can enjoy the personalized guidance specially made by the doctor at any time.
