    Abstract Objective: To observe the long-term effects of total hysterectomy on urinary function, evaluate the effects of preoperative nutritional status, urinary occult infection, and surgical factors on the induction of postoperative stress urinary incontinence (SUI), and explore the incidence and risk factors of SUI.
    Study design: From January 2017 to December 2017, 164 patients with benign non-prolapsing diseases who underwent a laparoscopic total hysterectomy in the First People's Hospital of Taicang were selected as the analysis objects. The International Incontinence Standard Questionnaire for Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (ICIQ-FLUTS) and Pelvic Floor Impact Questionnaire-short version 20 (PFDI-20) were used for telephone follow-up to subjectively assess the urinary function of patients, collect their medical records, and statistically analyze the number of postoperative SUI cases. Logistic multivariate analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of postoperative female SUI, presented as adjusted odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals.
    Results: Only 97 out of 164 patients completed the ICIQ-FLUTS and PFDI-20 questionnaires. Among these participants, 28 patients (28.86%) were diagnosed with SUI (study group), while 69 patients (71.13%) were classified as women without SUI (control group). The age, menopause, parity ≥ 2 times, Body mass index (BMI) ≥ 28 kg/m
    Conclusions: Hysterectomy for benign non-prolapse diseases has a long-term potential impact on the urinary system of patients, and the risk of postoperative SUI increases. The main risk factors of SUI are parity, menopausal status, obesity, preoperative nutritional status, and occult infection of the urinary system.

    Abstract Reducing exhaust emissions, promoting economic development, and realizing clean energy utilization have always been concerns in China. To measure the relationship between them, this study selects the data related to energy consumption, economic growth, and exhaust emissions from 2000 to 2019 in 30 Chinese provinces. By constructing a panel vector autoregressive (PVAR) model, the dynamic relationship between them in China is quantitatively analyzed. The results show that there is a long-term interaction between energy consumption, economic growth, and exhaust emissions. Among them, economic growth is highly dependent on energy consumption, but it can promote the reduction of exhaust emissions. However, energy consumption will produce a large amount of industrial waste, such as sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide emissions. Specifically, the industrial structure and energy structure have the most obvious impact on reducing industrial sulfur dioxide emissions and carbon emissions, with the proportion between 0.071–0.090 and 0.031–0.032, respectively. Therefore, the adjustment of industrial structure and energy structure is the key to exhaust emission reduction.

    Abstract With the development of the integrated energy Internet, energy structure optimization and emission reduction have led to higher requirements for developing various energy sources to enable coordinated and sustainable development. However, data-mining methods are rarely used to study the coordination of multi-energy generation in published research results. In this study, from the perspective of power industry emissions, coordinated generation of various energy sources, and balance of power generation and consumption, a data-mining algorithm was used to analyze the development of thermal power, hydropower, wind power, waste heat, gas, and other power sources. The chi-square automatic interaction detection tree (CHAID), logistic regression, and two-step clustering methods were applied. The results show that: a) CO₂ and SO₂ emissions were mainly affected by thermal power generation, whereas NOₓ emissions were jointly affected by thermal power, garbage power, and gas-fired power, and the emissions of various pollutants increased with an increase in power consumption. The optimal power-generation scheme under minimum emission can be obtained. b) There was a strong correlation between thermal power generation and residential electricity consumption, and renewable energy (wind energy, photovoltaic, hydropower) exhibited the highest correlation with the electricity consumption of the tertiary industry, which indicates that renewable energy generation can be promoted by managing electricity consumption in the tertiary industry. c) When the electricity demand of all users was small, the proportion of renewable energy power generation increased; in contrast, the thermal power generation was larger. This indicates the importance of improving the sustainable and stable power supply of renewable energy. This study provides a data analysis model for the coordinated development of multiple energies, which will contribute to the decision-making basis for controlling power emissions, improving the utilization rate of renewable energy, and optimizing the energy structure.

    Abstract Air pollution in northern China is relatively serious during the winter heating period, which attracts the attention of the state and government, especially in Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei Region. To further explore the issue of air pollutant emission and energy utilization in Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei during the heating season, this paper establishes a panel data model which describes the long-term relationship between air pollutant emission, heating capacity, coal, and power consumption with the data from 2004 to 2017. Based on this, we draw the following conclusions: there is a positive relationship between winter heating capacity and air pollutant emissions, which indicates that the energy consumed by heating will produce atmospheric pollutants. However, the increase of electricity consumption does not necessarily reduce pollution, which means that replacing coal with electricity is not the best way to solve air pollution in heating season, but requires the coordination of multiple energy sources. In addition, there are obvious differences in the analysis results in Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei. For example, the impact of coal and electricity consumption on pollutant emissions in Beijing is quite different from that in Tianjin and Hebei. The local economic development and energy conditions should be fully taken into account when formulating policies.

    Abstract Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have received extensive attention owing to their fascinating properties in recent years. However, the controllable synthesis of MSNs with different morphologies and the transformation of various structures by using simple oil-water microemulsion assembly methods remains a challenge. Herein, a facile microemulsion assembly approach has been developed to fabricate MSNs with various morphologies, tunable particle diameter (135–280 nm), and pore size (2.8–32.8 nm). In the same reaction system, the evolution of walnut-like MSNs to mulberry-like MSNs has been easily achieved. The amount of pentanol not only plays an important role in the evolution of pore sizes but also significantly affects the interfacial interaction between soft templates and silica precursors, which is critical to the morphology of the resulting particles. As a result, wrinkle-like, dendritic-like, walnut-like, and mulberry-like mesoporous nanospheres can be synthesized. More importantly, MSNs with visible voids in the center can be successfully obtained during the synthesis process when the appropriate pentanol is employed. Other experimental parameters, such as the amount of isopropanol, the concentration of surfactant, and the concentration of alkali, were also investigated. A possible mechanism is proposed to account for the formation and growth of MSNs. The Au@NH₂-MSNs composite nanostructures can be used as a catalyst for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol by NaBH₄ into 4-aminophenol and exhibit superior catalytic performance.

    Abstract Recently, Chinese state environmental protection administration has brought out several PM10 reduction policies to control the coal consumption strictly and promote the adjustment of power structure. Under this new policy environment, a suitable analysis method is required to simulate the upcoming major shift of China’s electric power structure. Firstly, a complete system dynamics model is built to simulate China’s evolution path of power structure with constraints of PM10 reduction considering both technical and economical factors. Secondly, scenario analyses are conducted under different clean-power capacity growth rates to seek applicable policy guidance for PM10 reduction. The results suggest the following conclusions. (1) The proportion of thermal power installed capacity will decrease to 67% in 2018 with a dropping speed, and there will be an accelerated decline in 2023–2032. (2) The system dynamics model can effectively simulate the implementation of the policy, for example, the proportion of coal consumption in the forecast model is 63.3% (the accuracy rate is 95.2%), below policy target 65% in 2017. (3) China should promote clean power generation such as nuclear power to meet PM10 reduction target.

    Abstract Ethanol-water mixing method has been widely used to prepare nanobubbles, however, in dilute ethanol-water solutions, the preparation of monodispersed bulk nanobubbles with high number density has not been achieved. Herein, a controllable bulk mixing (CBM) method is designed to fabricate monodispersed bulk nanobubbles at a low volume ratio of ethanol to water (less than 10:100), which can prepare high-number- density (at around 2 × 10⁹ bubbles/mL) and high-stability bulk nanobubbles. Notably, after 9 days of aging, a considerable number of nanobubbles can still be captured by NTA technology. The formation and influencing parameters of the bulk nanobubbles in this system are also explored. Based on our experimental results, a plausible mechanism of nanobubble nucleation and growth at ethanol/water interfaces is proposed to understand the formation of bulk nanobubbles. A hypothetical model is established and as a result the Laplace pressure of bulk nanobubbles in dilute ethanol-water solutions is obtained. The Laplace pressure given by the surface tension might be less than 0.5 atm.
