This study investigates how sustained governance of hidden hazards influences safety performance in port systems, using data from 54 production and key non-production enterprises within the Tianjin Port Group. Employing correlation analysis, regression modeling and mediation-moderation analysis, the study finds that both systematic hazard governance and standardized safety management significantly improve safety outcomes. Basic management-level governance directly reduces the frequency of incidents, while site-level governance enhances safety performance indirectly by promoting standardization.

In this article, a novel online adaptive control scheme is developed for the optimal control issues of integrated electric-gas systems with partially unknown dynamics, by combining the decentralized event-triggered mechanism and adaptive dynamic programming techniques. Initially, the complex electric-gas coupling network is modeled in the state-space form. By virtue of neural networks (NNs), the NN-based identifier and the critic NN are designed to approximate the unknown drift dynamic and the optimal value function in an online fashion, respectively.

To date, the closed-loop system represents the best commercialized management of type 1 diabetes. However, mealtimes still require carbohydrate estimation and are often associated with postprandial hyperglycemia which may contribute to poor metabolic control and long -term complications. A multicentre, prospective, non-interventional clinical trial was designed to determine the effectiveness of a novel algorithm to predict changes in blood glucose levels two hours after a usual meal.

Neurogenic bladder and lower urinary tract (LUT) dysfunctions encompass a wide variety of urinary disorders resulting from nervous system impairments. Unfortunately, conventional treatments are still limited and can have significant complication rates, especially when stent implantations or other surgical procedures are involved. Therefore, there is a critical need to develop novel therapeutic strategies and pharmacological approaches to address these challenging urological conditions.

Fast Scan Cyclic Voltammetry (FSCV) is a widely used electrochemical technique to detect rapid extracellular dopamine transients . It employs carbon fiber microelectrodes (CFMEs), but conventional 7 µm diameter CFMEs often suffer from limited mechanical durability and reduced lifespan, hindering their use in chronic monitoring. To improve mechanical robustness and long-term functionality, we fabricated 30 µm diameter CFMEs and modified their geometry via electrochemical etching to form cone-shaped tips.
