Recent studies have shown that sulfide- and sulfur-based autotrophic denitrification (AD) processes play an important role in contributing to nitrous oxide (N2O) production emissions. However, N2O is not recognized the current AD models, limiting their ability predict accumulation during AD. In this work, a mathematical model developed describe dynamics for first time. The successfully calibrated validated using data from two independent experimental systems with sulfide or sulfur as...
Bone metastasis in advanced cancer is challenging because of pain, functional issues, and reduced life expectancy. Treatment planning complex, with consideration factors such as location, symptoms, prognosis. Prognostic models help guide treatment choices, Skeletal Oncology Research Group machine-learning algorithms (SORG-MLAs) showing promise predicting survival for initial spinal metastases extremity treated surgery or radiotherapy. Improved therapies extend patient lifespans, increasing...
Abstract Plug-flow activated sludge reactors (ASR) that are step-feed with wastewater widely adopted in treatment plants (WWTPs) due to their ability maximise the use of organic carbon for denitrification. Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions expected vary along these pronounced spatial variations both biomass and substrate concentrations. However, date, no detailed studies have characterised impact configuration on emission variability. Here we report results from a comprehensive online N O...
A common and long-existing operational issue of wastewater denitrification is the unexpected accumulation nitrite (NO2–) that could suppress activity various microorganisms involved in biological treatment process nitrous oxide (N2O) emit as a potent greenhouse gas. Recently, it has been confirmed these intermediates greatly influenced by electron competition between four steps. However, little known about this biofilm systems. In work, we applied mathematical model links carbon oxidation...
Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) has been shown to have a profound negative impact on women's quality of life and lead increases in health care costs; however, data HMB among Chinese population is still rather limited. The present study therefore aimed determine the current prevalence risk factors subjectively experienced community sample reproductive-age women, evaluate its effect daily life. We conducted questionnaire survey 2356 women aged 18–50 years living Beijing, China, from October...
Abstract The change of fracture propagation direction caused by stress interference between fractures is one the main reasons that affect shale gas productivity. Natural will be damaged induced stress, and field produced natural damage in turn hydraulic fractures. Previous studies usually ignored impact variation damage, leading to inaccurate simulation results. A new model for simulating fracturing-induced established with consideration influence damage. Then, fracture-induced analyzed open...
Objectives To estimate the prevalence of prostate cancer with bone metastasis in Beijing, and to hospital visits direct treatment costs among male urban employees disease Beijing. Design Cross-sectional observational study. Setting participants Patients from Urban Employee Basic Medical Insurance database covering employed population China, 2011 2014. Primary secondary outcome measures Prevalence, healthcare patients metastasis. Results A total 1672 individuals were identified as having...
In this work, a mathematical model based on growth kinetics of microorganisms and substrates transportation through biofilms was developed to describe methane production sulfate reduction with ethanol being key electron donor. The calibrated validated using experimental data from two case studies conducted in granule-based Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket reactors. results suggest that the could satisfactorily sulfide productions as well removals both systems. modeling reveal stratified...
Key Clinical Message This case highlights the importance of carefully weighing benefits and risks beta‐adrenergic blockade therapy based on symptoms, echocardiography, BNP values in thyroid storm patients. Abstract Thyroid is a rare but life‐threatening condition thyrotoxic The keys to successful management are early diagnosis, immediate anti‐thyroid medications, preventing multiorgan failure. We present storm, acute decompensated heart failure, atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular...
Sepsis-associated thrombocytopenia (SAT) is a common complication in the intensive care unit (ICU), which significantly increases mortality rate and leads to poor prognosis of diseases. Machine learning (ML) widely used disease prediction critically ill patients. Here, we aimed establish models for platelet decrease severe ICU patients with sepsis based on four ML algorithms identify best model. The research subjects were 1,455 admitted Dongyang People's Hospital affiliated Wenzhou Medical...
Hydrogenotrophic denitrification is a novel and sustainable process for nitrogen removal, which utilizes hydrogen as electron donor, carbon dioxide source. Recent studies have shown that nitrous oxide (N2 O), highly undesirable intermediate potent greenhouse gas, can accumulate during this process. In work, new mathematical model developed to describe oxides dynamics, especially N2 O, hydrogenotrophic the first time. The describes competition among four steps of through decoupling oxidation...
Advances in treatment have extended the life expectancy of patients with metastatic bone disease (MBD). Patients could experience more skeletal-related events (SREs) as a result this progress. Those who already experienced SRE encounter another local management for subsequent SRE, which is not part initial SRE. However, there noted gap research on rate and characteristics SREs requiring further localized treatment, obligating clinicians to extrapolate from experiences when confronting ones....
Climate change and urbanization are the main causes of regional climate change. Based on measured meteorological data Nanjing's daily average temperature total electricity consumption in recent years, method degree days is used to estimate demand for heating winter refrigeration summer due Moreover, we analyze quantitative relationship between heating/cooling social load requirements. The results reveal increase first then decrease, cooling decrease during period 2011-2017. air conditioning...
A novel model was developed to describe electron competition during three-step denitrification through linking nitrogen reduction and carbon oxidation with carriers.
Both nonoperative and operative treatments for spinal metastasis are expensive interventions. Patients' expected 3-month survival is believed to be a key factor determine the most suitable treatment. However, best of our knowledge, no previous study lends support hypothesis. We sought cost-effectiveness interventions, stratified by patients' predicted probability survival.A Markov model with four defined health states was used estimate quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) costs intervention...
