Abstract	Abstract This paper proposes a fluid classifier for a tight reservoir using a quantum neural network (QNN). It is difficult to identify the fluid in tight reservoirs, and the manual interpretation of logging data, which is an important means to identify the fluid properties, has the disadvantages of a low recognition rate and non-intelligence, and an intelligent algorithm can better identify the fluid. For tight reservoirs, the logging response characteristics of different fluid properties and the sensitivity and relevance of well log parameter and rock physics parameters to fluid identification are analyzed, and different sets of input parameters for fluid identification are constructed. On the basis of quantum neural networks, a new method for combining sample quantum state descriptions, sensitivity analysis of input parameters, and wavelet activation functions for optimization is proposed. The results of identifying the dry layer, gas layer, and gas–water co-layer in the tight reservoir in the Sichuan Basin of China show that different input parameters and activation functions affect recognition performance. The proposed quantum neural network based on hybrid parameters and a wavelet activation function has higher fluid identification accuracy than the original quantum neural network model, indicating that this method is effective and warrants promotion and application.

Abstract	Horizontal ecological compensation mechanism provides solutions for cross-domain protection of ecological environment, and the key to its implementation depends on the establishment of a suitable incentive mechanism of economic benefits to influence the conservation behavior of each interest body. This article constructs a horizontal ecological compensation mechanism for the Yellow River Basin through indicator variables to analyze the profitability of the participating subjects. Based on data from 83 cities in the Yellow River Basin in 2019, an empirical study was conducted using a binary unordered logit regression model to examine the regional benefits generated by the horizontal ecological compensation mechanism in the Yellow River Basin. The level of urban economic development and ecological environment management significantly affects the profitability of horizontal ecological compensation mechanisms in the Yellow River basin. The heterogeneity analysis finds that the profitability of the horizontal ecological compensation mechanism in the Yellow River basin is stronger in the upstream central and western regions, which are more likely to produce better ecological compensation benefits as recipients of compensation funds. Governments in the Yellow River Basin should strengthen cross-regional cooperation, continuously improve the capacity building and modernization of ecological and environmental governance in the basin, and provide solid institutional guarantees for environmental pollution management in China.

Abstract	Background: In recent years, single-incision thoracoscopic surgery (SITS) has been increasingly applied as an optimal treatment option for primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP). However, most SITS techniques are used in the fourth to sixth intercostal space between the anterior axillary and mid axillary lines. To find out more concealed incisions, this study performed PSP surgery via the sub-axillary cosmetic incision (SACI) technique. Methods: A total of 128 PSP patients were subjected to video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) between January 2017 and January 2019 at our institution. These patients were evaluated and assigned into SACI (n = 21) and SITS (n = 57) groups. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed based on patients' backgrounds, and the enrolled cohort was divided into 21 pairs. The incision satisfaction was assessed at 2 weeks and 6 months post-surgery. Results: The 21 pairs with matching baseline characteristics in the two groups did not exhibit significant differences in their backgrounds and surgical results. However, compared with the SITS group, the operation time was longer in the SACI group (p = 0.013). There were no post-operative complications in both groups. At 2 weeks and 6 months, incision satisfaction scores in the SACI group were significantly lower than those in the SITS group (p = 0.022 and p = 0.039, respectively). There were no recurrences of ipsilateral pneumothorax in both groups. Conclusions: SACI is a safe and feasible surgical method for PSP treatment. In addition, incision concealment can be used for patients with incision needs.

Abstract	Gear mechanism transmits the motion and power of parallel axes, intersecting axes and staggered axes, which has been widely employed in production and life. Gear-type mobile mechanism is a type of robot that can achieve motion through gear transmission. Due to its unique motion mode, it can handle various tasks in certain unconventional environments, such as particularly steep surfaces. Cylindrical gear, bevel gear and non-cylindrical gear are taken as the main parts of the mechanism to form a novel research series, respectively. The models of gear-type mobile mechanism are established in this paper, and the degrees of freedom of the mechanism are briefly calculated based on the screw theory. Simultaneously, the influence of centroid trajectory on motion stability is discussed to solve the possible problem that opposite rotation occur during the movement. Furthermore, the trajectory model of zero moment point is calculated considering the motion of the gear-type mobile mechanism. After that, the simulation and experimental analysis of its motion capability show that the gear-type mobile mechanism has excellent characteristics in stability, flexibility and continuity.

Abstract	In this review, motivated by the recent interest in high-temperature materials, we review our recent progress in theories of lattice dynamics in and out of equilibrium. To investigate thermodynamic properties of anharmonic crystals, the self-consistent phonon theory was developed, mainly in the 1960s, for rare gas atoms and quantum crystals. We have extended this theory to investigate the properties of the equilibrium state of a crystal, including its unit cell shape and size, atomic positions and lattice dynamical properties. Using the equation-of-motion method combined with the fluctuation–dissipation theorem and the Donsker–Furutsu–Novikov (DFN) theorem, this approach was also extended to investigate the non-equilibrium case where there is heat flow across a junction or an interface. The formalism is a classical one and therefore valid at high temperatures.

Abstract	Over the past two decades, strategies for sustainable development and water environment governance have become the main ways to improve regional water-use efficiency. However, the evolutionary characteristics and drivers of the regional water-use efficiency remain unclear, and the effectiveness of national strategic instruments must still be evaluated. The study uses the minimum distance to the strong efficient frontier model (MinDS) to measure water-use efficiency in the Yangtze River Economic Belt, examines the evolutionary characteristics of water-use efficiency from spatial and temporal perspectives, and further investigates drivers of the evolution of the water-use efficiency. The results indicate that the water-use efficiency in the Yangtze River Economic Belt has greatly improved and been maintained at a high level, especially after the national strategy for this economic belt was established. Water-use efficiency improvement is closely related to water environment treatment. There exists a significant spillover effect on the water-use efficiency in the provinces of the Yangtze River Economic Belt. High-level provinces are helpful in driving neighboring provinces to improve their water-use efficiency, while low-level provinces play a negative role. This study confirms the effectiveness of the national strategy and provides a useful perspective for interprovincial water-use efficiency improvement.

Abstract	Interactive visual navigation (IVN) involves tasks where embodied agents learn to interact with the objects in the environment to reach the goals. Current approaches exploit visual features to train a reinforcement learning (RL) navigation control policy network. However, RL-based methods continue to struggle at the IVN tasks as they are inefficient in learning a good representation of the unknown environment in partially observable settings. In this work, we introduce predictions of task-related latents (PTRLs), a flexible self-supervised RL framework for IVN tasks. PTRL learns the latent structured information about environment dynamics and leverages multistep representations of the sequential observations. Specifically, PTRL trains its representation by explicitly predicting the next pose of the agent conditioned on the actions. Moreover, an attention and memory module is employed to associate the learned representation to each action and exploit spatiotemporal dependencies. Furthermore, a state value boost module is introduced to adapt the model to previously unseen environments by leveraging input perturbations and regularizing the value function. Sample efficiency in the training of RL networks is enhanced by modular training and hierarchical decomposition. Extensive evaluations have proved the superiority of the proposed method in increasing the accuracy and generalization capacity.

Abstract	Objective: To examine the association between length of stay (LOS) after lobectomy and operative adverse events and define the best predictors and risk factors associated with prolonged LOS after lobectomy. Methods: Data from patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy in the Thoracic Surgery Department of our center between January 2015 and December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The association between operative adverse events and LOS after lobectomy was explored using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify preoperative risk factors associated with prolonged LOS after lobectomy. Results: Prolonged LOS after lobectomy was defined as a LOS after lobectomy that is > 3.5 days based on an optimal diagnostic value for operative adverse events (AUC = 0.882). Of the included patients, 20.9% (91/435) exceeded this threshold, of whom 52.7% (48/91) exhibited operative adverse events. The preoperative risk factors associated with prolonged LOS after lobectomy were age≥60 years old (OR = 9.632, 95%CI 1.126-75.66, p = 0.03), being a current smoker (OR = 2.702, 95%CI 1.547-4.72, P < 0.001), an American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) classification of 2 or higher (OR = 1.845, 95%CI 1.06-3.211, P = 0.03), ASA = 3 (OR = 9.133, 95%CI 3.281-25.425, P < 0.001), and Stage IIIA disease (OR = 6.565, 95%CI 2.823-15.271, P < 0.001). Prolonged LOS after lobectomy was significantly associated with the incidence of different operative adverse events, including conversion to thoracotomy, an operative duration of ≥300 min, blood transfusion events, chest tube drainage time, postoperative complications, and postoperative interventions (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The risk of prolonged LOS after lobectomy is higher in patients that are ≥60 years old, current smokers, exhibit an ASA classification of 2 or higher, and have a stage IIIA disease. Early identification of these risk factors can enhance the treatment offered to high-risk patients, thereby reducing the rates of operative adverse events and optimizing resource utilization.

Abstract	Background: Primary cardiac tumors are rare but have the potential to cause significant morbidity if not treated in an appropriate and timely manner. To date, however, there have been no studies examining the survival characteristics of patients who did not undergo surgical resection. Case report: We are presenting a case of a 61-year-old male admitted to our department due to "heart tumor''. He had 5+years previous history of type 2 diabetes was, and he took Metformin orally for a long time. Under extracorporeal circulation and general anesthesia, the heart lesion was removed under thoracoscopy. The tumor was about 5 cm ∗ 4 cm pale yellow color and sent for biopsy. Pathology report showed tumor like hyperplasia of fat and striated muscle tissues, some fat cells had atypical hyperplasia. Conclusions: For patients with malignant tumor, most of them had local invasion or had distant metastasis when the diagnosis was clear, and only conservative management could be done. Moreover, the prognosis of malignant tumor is poor, and the pathological morphology is diverse. The causes of death are due to widespread tumor metastasis, refractory heart failure, and various arrhythmias.
