BACKGROUND. Since December 2019, an outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) emerged in Wuhan, and is now becoming a global threat. We aimed to delineate compare the immunological features moderate COVID-19.
Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-IV inhibitors are a new approach to the treatment of type 2 diabetes. DPP-IV is member family serine peptidases that includes quiescent cell proline dipeptidase (QPP), DPP8, and DPP9; key regulator incretin hormones, but functions other members unknown. To determine importance selective inhibition for diabetes, we tested DPP-IV, DPP8/DPP9, or QPP in 2-week rat toxicity studies acute dog tolerability studies. In rats, DPP8/9 inhibitor produced alopecia,...
Millions of electric vehicles (EVs), especially plug-in hybrid EVs (PHEVs), will be integrated into the power grid in near future. Due to their large quantity and complex charging behavior, impact substantial PHEVs on needs investigated. Since behavior a certain regional transmission network or local distribution is determined by different uncertain factors, overall demand tends this situation probabilistic flow (PPF) can applied analyze grid. However, currently there no suitable model...
Large blackouts are typically caused by cascading failure propagating through a power system means of variety processes. Because the wide range time scales, multiple interacting processes, and huge number possible interactions, simulation analysis is extremely complicated. This paper defines for gives an initial review current understanding, industrial tools, challenges emerging methods simulation.
A novel method using particle swarm optimisation (PSO) is proposed for optimising parameters of controllers a wind turbine (WT) with doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). The PSO algorithm employed in the parameter tuning to search optimal and achieve coordinated control multiple WT system. implementation controllers' described detail. In analysis, generic dynamic model DFIG its associated presented, small signal stability derived; based on this, an eigenvalue-based objective function...
Due to their high controllability and flexibility, DC power grids have broad application prospects in the fields of networking renewable energy supply for oceanic archipelagos future cities. This paper describes system topology, control strategy, breaker configuration, research, development testing converter valves equipment Zhoushan multi-terminal transmission system. Zhejiang has unique geographical developmental features demonstrate irreplaceable technical advantages a grid providing...
Objective Type 2 diabetes mellitus is increasing in young adults, and greater adiposity considered a major risk factor. However, whether there an association between obesity how this might be impacted by age not clear. Therefore, we investigated the body mass index (BMI) across wide range of groups (20–30, 30–40, 40–50, 50–60, 60–70 ≥70 years old). Design We performed retrospective cohort study using healthy screening programme data. Setting A total 211 833 adult Chinese persons >20 old...
PANF-derived activated carbon fibers (PACFs) were prepared using a one step carbonation–activation, and used for the sorption of PFOS PFOA.
This paper presents a smart energy community management approach which is capable of implementing P2P trading and managing household storage systems. A residential concept proposed consisting domestic users local pool, in are free to trade with the pool enjoy cheap renewable while avoiding installation new generation equipment. The could harvest surplus from resources, at same time it sells higher price than Feed-in-Tariff (FIT) but lower retail price. In order encourage participation...
Background —Recent studies suggest that amlodipine may reduce mortality in patients with heart failure, especially those dilated cardiomyopathy. In general, drugs release NO, such as organic nitrates and ACE inhibitors, have been shown to be of substantial benefit the treatment failure. Methods Results —We hypothesized a portion beneficial actions involve or action NO. Coronary microvessels were isolated from normal dogs incubated increasing doses calcium channel blockers nifedipine,...
Shiga toxins (Stxs), encoded by the stxA and stxB genes, are important contributors to virulence of Escherichia coli O157:H7 other Stx-producing E. (STEC) strains. The genes in STEC strains located on genomes resident prophages lambda family immediately downstream phage late promoters (p(R')). phage-encoded Q proteins modify RNA polymerase initiating transcription at cognate p(R') promoter which creates complexes that transcend a terminator as well kilobases distal p(R'). To test if this...
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a T-cell-mediated systemic autoimmune disease, characterized by synovium inflammation and articular destruction. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) could be effective in the treatment of several diseases. However, there has been thus far no report on umbilical cord (UC)-MSCs RA. Here, potential immunosuppressive effects human UC-MSCs RA were evaluated.The responses fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) T patients explored. The possible molecular mechanism...
Two mathematical models for multiterminal voltage-sourced converter (VSC)-based HVDC are proposed in this paper. The first model assumes that all the converters co-located same substation while second is a general one, which DC network can be explicitly represented. For both proposed, primary basically have ability to independently control either active and reactive power or voltage of terminals secondary VSC used terminal bus balance exchange among converters. In addition, theoretic...
Invasive alien species (IAS) are a major global challenge requiring urgent action, and the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity (2011)(2012)(2013)(2014)(2015)(2016)(2017)(2018)(2019)(2020) of Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) includes target issue.Meeting requires an understanding invasion patterns.However, national or regional analyses invasions limited to developed countries.We identified 488 IAS in China's terrestrial habitats, inland waters marine ecosystems based available literature...
