Fault identification for rolling bearing based on ITD-ILBP-Hankel matrix.

When a failure occurs in bearings, vibration signals are characterized by strong non-stationarity and nonlinearity. Therefore, it is difficult to sufficiently dig fault features. 1D local binary pattern (1D-LBP) has the advantageous feature to effectively extract local information of signals.

Evidence for chromium crosses blood brain barrier from the hypothalamus in chromium mice model.

It has been shown that exposure to hexavalent Chromium, Cr (Ⅵ), via nasal cavity can have neurotoxicological effects and induces behavioral impairment due to the fact that blood brain barrier (BBB) does not cover olfactory bulb. But whether Cr (Ⅵ) can cross the BBB and have a toxicological effects in central nervous system (CNS) remains unclear. Therefore, we investigated the effects of Cr (Ⅵ) on mice treated with different concentrations and exposure time (14 days and 28 days) of Cr (Ⅵ) via intraperitoneal injection.

α-synuclein-lack expression rescues methamphetamine-induced mossy fiber degeneration in dorsal hippocampal CA3.

Methamphetamine (METH) - induced cognitive impairments may be related to synaptic degeneration at mossy fiber terminals, critical for spatial memory formation in hippocampal circuits. We have previously found METH-induced neurodegeneration in the striatum by increasing the α-synuclein (α-SYN) level. However, whether and how the METH-induced mossy fiber degeneration is also blamed for the abnormal accumulation of α-SYN remains to be elucidated.

Identification of autophagy related genes in predicting the prognosis and aiding 5- fluorouracil therapy of colorectal cancer.

The emergence of 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) resistance is the barrier to effective clinical outcomes for colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Autophagy was found to be involved in protecting tumor cells from 5-FU. However, the specific role of autophagy-related genes in CRC 5-FU resistance remains unclear.

Laboratory Testing Implications of Risk-Stratification and Management of COVID-19 Patients.

To distinguish COVID-19 patients and non-COVID-19 viral pneumonia patients and classify COVID-19 patients into low-risk and high-risk at admission by laboratory indicators. In this retrospective cohort, a total of 3,563 COVID-19 patients and 118 non-COVID-19 pneumonia patients were included. There are two cohorts of COVID-19 patients, including 548 patients in the training dataset, and 3,015 patients in the testing dataset.

Identification and functional analysis of the SARS-COV-2 nucleocapsid protein.

Background: A severe form of pneumonia, named coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) by the World Health Organization is widespread on the whole world. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was proved to be the main agent of COVID-19. In the present study, we conducted an in depth analysis of the SARS-COV-2 nucleocapsid to identify potential targets that may allow identification of therapeutic targets.

Diagnostic and Differential Diagnostic Significance of Laboratory Markers in Crayfish-Associated Rhabdomyolysis.

Context: Haff disease is a rare syndrome of myalgia and rhabdomyolysis occurring within 24h of consumption of certain types of cooked freshwater fish or crustacean.

Objective: The white blood cell count (WBC), plasma creatine kinase (CK), creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB), CK-MB/CK, troponin T (cTnT) and creatinine (Cr) were analyzed as diagnostic markers for crayfish ()-associated rhabdomyolysis (Haff disease). The significance of these laboratory markers in differentiating myocardial injury disease and Haff disease was explored.

Metabonomics Approach to Assessing the Modulatory Effects of Kisspeptin-10 on Liver Injury Induced by Heat Stress in Rats.

The protective effects of Kisspeptin on heat-induced oxidative stress in rats were investigated by using a combination of biochemical parameters and metabonomics. Metabonomic analyses were performed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry in conjunction with multivariate and univariate statistical analyses. At the end point of the heat stress experiment, histological observation, ultrastructural analysis and biochemical parameters were measured.

Heat-stress-induced metabolic changes and altered male reproductive function.

Heat stress can cause systemic physiological and biochemical alterations in living organisms. In reproductive systems, heat stress induces germ cell loss and poor quality semen. However, until now, little has been known about such a complex regulation process, particularly in the perspective of metabolism.

[Myeloperoxidase in the plasma of patients with acute coronary syndrome].

Objective: To determine the diagnostic value and efficacy for risk stratification of myeloperoxidase (MPO) levels in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Methods: One hundred and sixty-two patients were enrolled in this study. All patients underwent coronary angiography.
