    Abstract Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was first reported in China at the end of 2019. Several case studies have documented a probable association between infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and acute pancreatitis (AP). The objective of this study was to provide a complete analysis of existing literature that compares the clinical outcomes of AP in patients with COVID-19 and those without COVID-19. The intention was to further our understanding of the involvement of SARS-CoV-2 in the development of pancreatitis.
    Methods: Between January 2019 and December 2022, we searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Scopus. Nine studies (3,160 patients) were included. In this meta-analysis, Stata 12.0. was utilized. The information provided in this study is presented following the MOOSE reporting checklist.
    Results: Mortality [odds ratio (OR) =3.95, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.87, 5.43, P<0.001], intensive care unit (ICU) administration (OR =3.74, 95% CI: 2.26, 6.20, P<0.001), mechanical ventilation (OR =4.84, 95% CI: 2.14, 10.96, P<0.001), severe pancreatitis (OR =2.71, 95% CI: 1.04, 7.04, P=0.042), etiology of idiopathic and unknown (OR =4.75, 95% CI: 1.80, 12.56, P=0.002), necrotizing pancreatitis (OR =1.88, 95% CI: 1.28, 2.76, P=0.001), and length of hospital stay [weighted mean difference (WMD) =5.10, 95% CI: 2.79, 7.41, P<0.001] were more significantly increased in AP cases with COVID-19 than those without it.
    Conclusions: In conclusion, the findings of this study indicate a potential worsening of AP outcomes in patients affected by COVID-19.

    Abstract In recent years, the frequent occurrence of extreme emergencies represented by heavy rainfall has posed a significant impact on urban transportation networks and caused great inconvenience to people’s production and life. This paper examines the impact of heavy rainfall on the urban transportation network in Xi’an’s main urban area, models the map of urban road network in the main urban area of Xi’an by applying complex network theory, quantifies and analyzes the topological and geographic structural characteristics of the affected sections (interrupted by heavy rainfall) due to heavy rainfall, as well as the impact of heavy rainfall on the functional indexes of the road network such as access efficiency and accessibility, and, finally, analyzes its formation causes and proposes targeted management countermeasures. The findings of this study serve as a valuable reference for enhancing urban traffic emergency management capabilities and fostering sustainable urban development.

    Abstract Primary headache disorders including migraine, cluster headache, and tension-type headache are among the most common disabling diseases worldwide. The unclear pathogenesis of primary headache disorders has led to high rates of misdiagnosis and limited available treatment options. In this review, we have summarized the pathophysiological factors for a better understanding of primary headache disorders. Advances in functional neuroimaging, genetics, neurophysiology have indicated that cortical hyperexcitability, regional brain dysfunction, central sensitization and neuroplasticity changes play vital roles in the development of primary headache disorders. Moreover, we have also discussed a series of neurostimulation approaches with their stimulation mechanism, safety and efficacy for prevention and treatment of primary headache disorders. Noninvasive or implantable neurostimulation techniques show great promise for treating refractory primary headache disorders.

    Abstract Integration and miniaturization are the inevitable trends in the development of electronic devices. PZT and graphene are typical ferroelectric and carbon-based materials, respectively, which have been widely used in various fields. Achieving high-quality PZT/graphene heterogeneous integration and systematically studying its electrical properties is of great significance. In this work, we reported the characterization of a PZT film based on the sol-gel method. Additionally, the thickness of the PZT film was pushed to the limit size (~100 nm) by optimizing the process. The test results, including the remnant and leakage current, show that the PZT film is a reliable and suitable platform for further graphene-integrated applications. The non-destructive regulation of the electrical properties of graphene has been studied based on a domain-polarized substrate and strain-polarized substrate. The domain structures in the PZT film exhibit different geometric structures with ~0.3 V surface potential. The I-V output curves of graphene integrated on the surface of the PZT film exhibited obvious rectification characteristics because of p/n-doping tuned by an interfacial polarized electric field. In contrast, a ~100 nm thick PZT film makes it easy to acquire a larger strain gradient for flexural potential. The tested results also show a rectification phenomenon, which is similar to domain polarization substrate regulation. Considering the difficulty of measuring the flexural potential, the work might provide a new approach to assessing the flexural polarized regulation effect. A thinner ferroelectric film/graphene heterojunction and the polarized regulation of graphene will provide a platform for promoting low-dimension film-integrated applications.

    Abstract This paper uses the WIOD database combined with the global value chain decomposition to measure the value added of the crop industry and other industries included in the US crop exports. Use the employment coefficient to further analyze the impact of US crop exports on the employment of its own industry and other industries and the impact of exports from other industries on employment in the crop industry. We found: (1) The value-added of the service industry included in the export of the US crop industry is higher than that of the manufacturing industry and the primary industry. (2) Among the exports of other industries, the crop industry included in the manufacturing export has the most value-added and continues to increase, while the value added of the service industry and the primary industry is low. (3) The number of employed people in the industry driven by the export of the US crop industry is increasing. Among the other industries, the service industry has the largest number of employed people driven by the export of the crop industry.

    Abstract In recent years, catheter-based renal denervation (RDN) has emerged as a promising instrumental therapy for hypertension. The interruption of sympathetic nervous system was regarded as a possible mechanism for RDN regulating blood pressure. While the results reflected by renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), catecholamines and electrolytes remained inconsistent and was never systematically assessed. Pubmed, Embase, and Web of Science were comprehensively searched from inception to September 5, 2021. Studies that evaluated the effects of RDN on RAAS, catecholamines, and electrolytes were identified. Primary outcomes were changes in RAAS hormones after RDN, and secondary outcomes involved changes in plasma norepinephrine, serum, and urinary sodium and potassium. Out of 6391 retrieved studies, 20 studies (two randomized controlled studies and 18 observational studies) involving 771 persons were eventually included. Plasma renin activity had a statistically significant reduction after RDN (0.24 ng/mL/h, 95% CI 0.04 to 0.44, P = .02). While no significant change was found regarding plasma aldosterone (1.53 ng/dL, 95% CI -0.61 to 3.67, P = .16), norepinephrine (0.42 nmol/L, 95% -0.51 to 1.35, P = 0.38), serum sodium and potassium (0.16 mmol/L, 95% CI -0.17 to 0.49, P = .34; -0.02 mmol/L, 95% CI -0.09 to 0.04, P = .48, respectively), and urinary sodium and potassium (3.95 mmol/24 h, 95% CI -29.36 to 37.26, P = .82; 10.22 mmol/24 h, 95% CI -12.11 to 32.54, P = .37, respectively). In conclusion, plasma renin activity significantly decreased after RDN, while no significant change was observed in plasma aldosterone, plasma norepinephrine, and serum and urinary electrolytes.

    Abstract Neural oscillations reflect synchronized activities of neuronal ensembles in central nervous system. In the hippocampus, thalamus, neocortex and other brain subregions, neural oscillation can be detected and plays a crucial role in many complicated cognitive processes. Decoupling and damaging of neural oscillation play a key role in the induction of severe cognition deficits in many psychiatric disorders. In this review, we summarize research advances in the underlying mechanisms and physiological functions of neural oscillations. We also discuss the abnormal changes of sharp wave-ripple, gamma oscillation and sleep spindle oscillation in major depressive disorder, schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease, etc. Finally, the application potential of neural oscillations as clinical diagnosis and treatment targets is evaluated and prospected.
