    Abstract Amphibians with a unique life history are extremely sensitive to environmental changes. They are important indicator species for environmental change. The construction of Kaifeng water system affects the habitat and biodiversity of amphibians. In this study, we investigated the amphi-bians in water system of Kaifeng by setting sample points and using visual encounter method, and measured the habitat variables. We quantified amphibian biodiversity under different habitat types using the Shannon diversity index, Pielou evenness index and Simpson dominance index, and explored the responses of amphibians to microhabitat variations by cluster analysis and redundancy analysis. The results showed that the diversity, evenness, and dominance of amphibians in the natural revetment were higher than those in the artificial hardened revetment, indicating a more stable amphibian population in the natural habitat. The dominance index of amphibians on natural revetment was higher than that of the two artificially hardened revetments, indicating that amphibians preferred natural habitat. The abundance of both

    Abstract Crop planting area mapping is essential for crop phenology monitoring, yield prediction, and disaster prevention. In this study, a winter wheat identification method combining Markov Random Field and Spectral Similarity Measure (MRF-SSM) is proposed by using Sentinel-1 A time-series images. It is found that compared with VH polarization, the backscattering coefficient of winter wheat at VV polarization fluctuates more at all growth stages and is used for winter wheat mapping. The result shows that the precision of mapping winter wheat using the MRF-SSM is 89.62% which is higher than using the support vector machine (SVM) and random forest (RF) methods. Because winter wheat near towns can be accurately identified using MRF-SSM methods. Moreover, the MRF-SSM method has the advantages of fewer winter wheat samples and less computation time. Therefore, time-series Sentinel-1A images with MRF-SSM have great potential for mapping winter wheat or other crops.

    Abstract Cd contamination of sediments poses a serious threat to the global environment human health. A detail and comprehensive investigation of cadmium (Cd) pollution in the surface sediments of Dongjiaogou River was carried out. Concentration analysis of Cd in various depth and locations was conducted based on 82 samples collected from the river surface sediments where the sediments is up to 353 mg/kg. Subsequently, stabilization/solidification (S/S) method, an effective method of improving the engineering properties of sediments and encapsulating contaminants, was applied in these sediments. According to the results, the Cd pollutant was treated effectively by S/S method, which verifies the feasibility to mitigate the hazards caused by Cd in those sediments from the river. Furthermore, the S/S sediments are favorable as filling material in the road for both recycling and construction.

    Abstract In order to monitor heavy metal pollution in agricultural soils and assess the corresponding health risk in the Yellow River irrigation area, this study applied the Nemero index and the health risk index to evaluate heavy metal pollution in wheat grains and the health risks for residents in the lower reaches of the Yellow River. Four towns in Kaifeng, which are within the lower reaches of the Yellow River, were selected as the study area. The examination of wheat samples revealed that the average contents of Cd, Cr, Pb, Cu, Zn, Ni, and Hg in the wheat grains were 0.034, 0.428, 0.279, 5.363, 29.605, 0.305, and 0.003 mg·kg

    Abstract Purpose: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a complication commonly occurred in patients with sepsis, and AKI has become the leading cause associated with mortality. PKM2, as a rate-limiting enzyme of glycolysis, was considered to be involved in AKI in vitro and animal models. However, there have been no studies reported on the expression of PKM2 in humans and its association with AKI.
    Methods: A retrospective study including 57 patients (35 males and 22 females) that were admitted into hospital in 2019 was carried out in our research. The basic characteristics and clinical parameters of each patient were collected from patients' medical records. We assessed changes in the expression of serum and urinary PKM2 using ELISA and its association with clinical manifestations in patients with sepsis through correlation analysis. Besides, ROC analysis was applied for evaluating the role of PKM2 in predicting AKI and death rate.
    Results: Urinary PKM2 is obviously increased in patients with sepsis-associated AKI (P < 0.05), while no significant change was found in the expression of serum PKM2. Moreover, the expression of urinary PKM2 is positively correlated with serum creatinine (r=0.577, P < 0.01) and blood-urea-nitrogen (r=0.531, P<0.01). In addition, it is negatively correlated with glomerular filtration rate (r=-0.583, P<0.01). Besides, ROC analysis indicated that urinary PKM2 could be a predictor of AKI in patients with sepsis (AUC-ROC, 0.819; SE, 0.086, P = 0.004, 95% CI 0.651-0.986).
    Conclusions: Urinary PKM2 could be a marker predicting acute kidney injury in patients with sepsis.

    Abstract Sequential recommender systems (SRS) aim to provide personalized recommendations to users in the context of large-scale datasets and complex user behavior sequences. However, the effectiveness of most existing embedding techniques in capturing the intricate relationships between items remains suboptimal, with a significant concentration of item embedding vectors that hinder the improvement of final prediction performance. Nevertheless, our study reveals that the distribution of item embeddings can be effectively dispersed through graph interaction networks and contrastive learning. In this article, we propose a graph convolutional neural network to capture the complex relationships between users and items, leveraging the learned embedding vectors of nodes to represent items. Additionally, we employ a self-attentive sequential model to predict outcomes based on the item embedding sequences of individual users. Furthermore, we incorporate instance-wise contrastive learning (ICL) and prototype contrastive learning (PCL) during the training process to enhance the effectiveness of representation learning. Broad comparative experiments and ablation studies were conducted across four distinct datasets. The experimental outcomes clearly demonstrate the superior performance of our proposed GSASRec model.
