    Abstract Themulti-modeanddispersionnature of Lamb waves means that a variety of modes with individual mode structures and distinct dispersion behaviors would propagate in the structures simultaneously. The existence of a corrosion would result in thickness reduction, which means the frequency-thickness product under a specific excitation would also decrease. Due to dispersion diversity, the interaction of each individual Lamb mode at the corrosion may be distinct, i.e., the velocity varies in different extent and even in opposite trends. In this paper, the combination of multiple modes, rather than a single sensitive mode, is used for structure diagnosis. Specifically, two Lamb modes both sensitive to corrosion but with opposite variation trends are taken and the corrosion index is defined on the ratio of their time-of-flight, so as to enhance the sensitivity to corrosion and eliminate the influence of difference path lengths in the sensor network. On this basis, a probabilistic reconstruction algorithm is introduced for corrosion detection and localization. Since the two modes are extracted from the same wideband Lamb wave response, the proposed method is baseline-free. The influence of mode conversion on the effectiveness of the proposed method is discussed. Ultimately, the performance of the proposed method is demonstrated by an experimental example. The results show that the defect could be correctly identified and accurately localized.

    Abstract Codecs using spectral-spatial transforms efficiently compress raw camera images captured with a color filter array (CFA-sampled raw images) by changing their RGB color space into a decorrelated color space. This study describes two types of spectral-spatial transform, called extended Star-Tetrix transforms (XSTTs), and their edge-aware versions, called edge-aware XSTTs (EXSTTs), with no extra bits (side information) and little extra complexity. They are obtained by (i) extending the Star-Tetrix transform (STT), which is one of the latest spectral-spatial transforms, to a new version of our previously proposed wavelet-based spectral-spatial transform and a simpler version; (ii) considering that each 2D predict step of the wavelet transform is a combination of two 1D diagonal or horizontal-vertical transforms; (iii) weighting the transforms along the edge directions in the images. Compared with XSTTs, the EXSTTs can decorrelate CFA-sampled raw images well: they reduce the difference in energy between the two green components by about 3.38-30.08 % for high-quality camera images and 8.97-14.47 % for mobile phone images. The experiments on JPEG 2000-based lossless and lossy compression of CFA-sampled raw images show better performance than conventional methods. For high-quality camera images, the XSTTs/EXSTTs produce results equal to or better than the conventional methods: especially for images with many edges, the type-I EXSTT improves them by about 0.03-0.19 bpp in average lossless bitrate and the XSTTs improve them by about 0.16-0.96 dB in average Bjøntegaard delta peak signal-to-noise ratio. For mobile phone images, our previous work perform the best, whereas the XSTTs/EXSTTs show similar trends to the case of high-quality camera images.

    Abstract Middle cerebral artery aneurysm is a common type of intracranial aneurysm in neurosurgery, accounting for about 20% of intracranial aneurysms, and is the third most common site of intracranial aneurysms. The surgical success rate and postoperative recovery ability of today's treatment plans are not satisfactory. Therefore, this paper designs a health model based on data analysis to clinically apply clipping surgery for cerebral aneurysm. This paper studies data analytics health models in the context of big data analytics. The model combines the characteristics of cerebral aneurysms for targeted analysis, and then through the understanding of the clipping treatment of cerebral aneurysms, this paper combines the deep learning in the neural network to train the treatment plan under the data analysis health model. Finally, this paper designs a therapeutic plan for clipping treatment of cerebral aneurysm based on a data analysis health model. To verify its data analysis ability, this paper designs experiments on unbalanced data sets and experiments to improve the execution efficiency of the algorithm. After analyzing the results obtained from the experiment, this paper will apply them to the clinic. The final experiment showed that the surgical success rate of the clipping treatment for cerebral aneurysm based on the data analysis health model was increased by 21.84% compared with the traditional clipping treatment for cerebral aneurysm.

    Abstract Introduction: Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the pathogen of Porcine Circovirus Associated Diseases. Porcine circovirus type 3 (PCV3) is a novel porcine circovirus associated with porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS) and reproductive failure. PCV2 is clearly pathogenic, while the pathogenicity of PCV3 remains controversial, so it is crucial to monitor the prevalence of PCV2 and PCV3 in healthy and diseased pigs to investigate the effects of PCV3 and PCV2 on the health status of pigs.
    Methods: Here, we developed a PCV2 and PCV3 dual TaqMan quantitative PCR (qPCR) method to test samples from healthy and diseased pigs, to clarify the differences in the positive rates and viral copy numbers of PCV2 and PCV3, and to analyze the genetic evolution and molecular characterization of the viral genomes obtained with sequence alignment and phylogenetic analysis, homology and structural analysis of Cap proteins, and selection pressure analysis.
    Results: We successfully established a dual TaqMan qPCR method for PCV2 and PCV3 with good repeatability, specificity and sensitivity. In total, 1,385 samples from 15 Chinese provinces were tested with the established qPCR. The total positive rates were 37.47% for PCV3 and 57.95% for PCV2, and the coinfection rate for was 25.49%. The positive rates of PCV3 and PCV2 in 372 healthy pigs were 15.05 and 69.89%, respectively, and the coinfection rate was 12.90%. The positive rates of PCV3 and PCV2 in 246 diseased pigs were 55.69 and 83.33%, respectively, and the coinfection rate was 47.97%. Eighteen PCV3 genomes and 64 PCV2 genomes were identified, including nine each of the PCV3a-1 and PCV3b genotypes, eight of PCV2a, 16 of PCV2b, and 40 of PCV2d. The amino acid identity within the PCV3 Cap proteins was 94.00-100.0%, whereas the PCV2 Cap proteins showed an identity of 81.30-100.0%. PCV3 Cap was most variable at amino acid sites 24, 27, 77, 104 and 150, whereas PCV2 Cap had 10-13 unique sites of variation between genotypes.
    Discussion: These results clarify the prevalence and variations of PCV2 and PCV3 in healthy and diseased pigs, which will provide a basis for the prevention and control of the two viral infections.

    Abstract Purpose: To investigate the role and mechanism of connexin 43(Cx43)in odontoblast differentiation of human dental pulp cells (hDPCs) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
    Methods: The maxillary first molar injury model of SD rats was established. The expression pattern of Cx43 in dental pulp repair after injury was detected by immunofluorescence(IF) staining. hDPCs was respectively stimulated with 0, 1, 10, 100 and 1 000 ng/mL LPS for 6 h to screen the optimal concentration, and then the expression of Cx43 was inhibited and overexpressed in hDPCs. Quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR) and Western blot(WB) were used to detect the expression of Cx43 and dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP), dental matrix protein-1 (DMP-1), osterix (Osx) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activity. Furthermore, hDPCs were treated with specific Cx43 channel inhibitors to investigate the effect of Cx43-mediated channel activity in odontoblast differentiation of hDPCs, and to explore the role and mechanism of Cx43 in regulating odontoblast differentiation of hDPCs induced by LPS. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS 26.0 software package.
    Results: IF results showed that Cx43 was mainly expressed in the odontoblast layer in healthy dental pulp tissues. At 3-24 h after tooth injury, the expression of Cx43 decreased and then gradually increased to the normal level; from 3 days to 2 weeks after injury, the expression of Cx43 tended to be down-regulated which was in the odontoblast layer and pulp proper. The expression of DSPP mRNA was significantly up-regulated in the hDPCs stimulated with 10 ng/mL LPS for 6 h(P<0.01). Inhibition of Cx43 significantly up-regulated the expression of DSPP, DMP-1 and Osx mRNA induced by LPS in hDPCs(P<0.05), while overexpression of Cx43 obviously inhibited the expression of factors related to LPS-induced odontoblast differentiation(P<0.01) and the fluorescence intensity of DSPP. 10 ng/mL LPS activated ERK signal in hDPCs, and overexpression of Cx43 significantly attenuated the activity of ERK signal induced by LPS(P<0.01). Inhibition of Cx43-mediated hemichannel (HC) promoted mRNA expression of factors related to odontoblast differentiation in hDPCs and the activity of ERK signal induced by LPS(P<0.05), while blocking Cx43-mediated gap junction channel (GJC) inhibited odontoblast differentiation.
    Conclusions: Cx43 participates in the regulation of dental pulp repair after injury, and its expression shows a downward trend as a whole. Inhibition of Cx43 or blocking of HC promotes LPS-induced ERK signal activity and odontoblast differentiation of hDPCs.

    Abstract Hypertensive crisis and paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia are serious adverse reactions that can lead to fatal consequences. We reported a 28-year-old woman who underwent emergency cesarean section of her first fetus due to pelvic outlet stenosis and had a hypertensive crisis, merging with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia after dezocine was administrated during the procedure. Her symptoms returned to normal after esmolol and urapidil were administrated. In order to rule out hypertension crisis caused by other diseases, the anesthesiologist immediately accessed the thyroid function, myocardial enzymes, catecholamines, and arterial blood gas analysis of the patient. No obvious abnormality was found in all the test results. We infer the conclusion that the symptoms of this patient during the operation were most likely related to dezocine administration. This case highlights the need to pay attention to possible malignant adverse reactions while using dezocine during cesarean section, and we recommend the immediate use of α-receptor blockers and/or β-receptor blockers in situations like to avoid serious complications caused by supraventricular tachycardia.

    Abstract The Lamb wave reciprocity-based method is an effective candidate for the health monitoring of composite plates. However, if the damage is located symmetrically between the transmitter-receiver pair, the reciprocity still holds true and the method misjudges its presence. In the present work, a new method for computing the reciprocity index (RI) from Lamb wave signals with extended data length is proposed. This method exploits extra indirect waves that bounce one or more times between the damage and other reflectors. These waves probe the damage through different paths and from different directions. Thus, the damage missed by the direct wave may be exposed by the indirect waves. Benefiting from that, two modified RIs are defined and their performance is validated by two experimental examples. As expected, both indices demonstrate excellent sensitivity to damage even in the middle of the transmitter-receiver pair and ensure a low threshold for the pristine condition, illustrating an excellent ability to distinguish between health and illness.
