Using texture synthesis in fractal pattern design   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
INTRODUCTIONIn the last two decades, research on fractal ge-ometry has received much attention for its theoretical significance and practical applications. Pattern design based on fractal geometry is an important application area of fractal techniques in the textile industry (Wang, 2003). Computer aided pattern design involves the de-sign of textures and colors in the pattern. The source of textures is rich. All kinds of objects and scenery including man-made abstract objects can be used…  相似文献

Background: Sevoflurane and propofol are effective cardioprotective anaesthetic agents, though the cardioprotection of propofol has not been shown in humans. Their roles and underlying mechanisms in anesthetic postconditioning are unclear.Mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) opening is a major cause of ischemia-reperfusion injury. Here we investigated sevoflurane- and propofol-induced postconditioning and their relationship with MPTP. Methods: Isolated perfused rat hearts were exposed to 40 min of ischemia followed by 1 h of reperfusion. During the first 15 min of reperfusion, hearts were treated with either control buffer (CTRL group) or buffer containing 20 μmol/L atractyloside (ATR group), 3% (v/v) sevoflurane (SPC group),50 μmol/L propofol (PPC group), or the combination of atractyloside with respective anesthetics (SPC ATR and PPC ATR groups). Infarct size was determined by dividing the total necrotic area of the left ventricle by the total left ventricular slice area (percent necrotic area). Results: Hearts treated with sevoflurane or propofol showed significantly better recovery of coronary flow,end-diastolic pressures, left ventricular developed pressure and derivatives compared with controls. Sevoflurane resulted in more protective alteration of hemodynamics at most time point of reperfusion than propofol. These improvements were paralleled with the reduction of lactate dehydrogenase release and the decrease of infarct size (SPC vs CTRL: (17.48±2.70)% vs (48.47±6.03)%,P<0.05; PPC vs CTRL: (35.60±2.10)% vs (48.47±6.03)%, P<0.05). SPC group had less infarct size than PPC group (SPC vs PPC:(17.48±2.70)% vs (35.60±2.10)%, P<0.05). Atractyloside coadministration attenuated or completely blocked the cardioprotective effect of postconditioning of sevoflurane and propofol. Conclusion: Postconditioning of sevoflurane and propofol has cardioprotective effect against ischemia-reperfusion injury of heart, which is associated with inhibition of MPTP opening. Compared to propofol, sevoflurane provides superior protection of functional recovery and infarct size.  相似文献

Influence of input acoustic power on regenerator's performance   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Performance of a pulse tube cooler significantly depends on the efficient operation ofits regenerator. Influence of input acoustic power on regenerator's performance is simulated and analyzed with simple harmonic analysis method. Given regenerator's dimensions and pressure ratio, there is an optimal input acoustic power for achieving a highest coefficient of performance, due to a compromise between relative time-averaged total energy flux in regenerator and relative acoustic power at regenerator's cold end. Additionally, optimal dimensions of regenerator are also estimated and presented for different input acoustic powers. The computed optimal diameter obviously increases with increase of input acoustic power, while the optimal length decreases slightly, and as a result, a larger input acoustic power requires a smaller aspect ratio (length over diameter).  相似文献

INTRODUCTION Many people paid attention to passive theory and used it to control chaotic dynamical systems (Byrnes and Isidori, 1991; Yu, 1999). Yu (1999) studied the passive equivalence of the Lorenz chaotic system and presented the method of passive control of chaotic system. Using passive theory, Qi and Zhao (2005) researched on the control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor chaotic system, and stabilized the system at different equilibrium points. However, in order to design th…  相似文献

Field experiments were conducted in farmers’ rice fields in 2001 and 2002 to study the effects of nitrogen (N) management strategies on N use efficiency in recovery (RE), agronomy (AE) and physiology (PE) and redistribution of dry matter accumulation (DMA) and nitrogen accumulation (NA) in two typical rice cultivars in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province. This study aimed mainly at identifying the possible causes of poor fertilizer N use efficiency (NUE) of rice in Zhejiang by comparing farmers’ fertilizer practice (FFP) with advanced site-specific nutrient management (SSNM) and real-time N management (RTNM). The results showed that compared to FFP, SSNM and RTNM reduced DMA and NA before panicle initiation and increased DMA and NA at post-flowering. There is no significant difference between SSNM and FFP in post-flowering dry matter redistribution (post-DMR) and post-flowering nitrogen redistribution (post-NR). These results suggest that high input rate of fertilizer N and improper fertilizer N timing are the main factors causing low NUE of irrigated rice in the farmer’s routine practice of Zhejiang. With SSNM, about 15% of the current total N input in direct-seeding early rice and 45% in single rice could be reduced without yield loss in Zhejiang, China.

Simple, reliable and sensitive analytical methods to determine anticariogenic agents, preservatives, and artificial sweeteners contained in commercial gargles are necessary for evaluating their effectiveness, safety, and quality. An ion chromatography (IC) method has been described to analyze simultaneously eight anions including fluoride, chloride, sulfate, phosphate, monofluorophosphate, glycerophosphate (anticariogenic agents), sorbate (a preservative), and saccharin (an artificial sweetener) in gargles. In this IC system, we applied a mobile phased gradient elution with KOH, separation by IonPac AS18 columns, and suppressed conductivity detection. Optimized analytical conditions were further evaluated for accuracy. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) of the inter-day's retention time and peak area of all species were less than 0.938% and 8.731%, respectively, while RSDs of 5-day retention time and peak area were less than 1.265% and 8.934%, respectively. The correlation coefficients for targeted analytes ranged from 0.999 7 to 1.000 0. The spiked recoveries for the anions were 90%-102.5%. We concluded that the method can be applied for comprehensive evaluation of commercial gargles.  相似文献

INTRODUCTION In 1998 gastrointestinal pathologists reached aconsensus on the definition of chronic atrophic gas- tritis (CAG), which was described as programmed loss of gastric gland and/or replacement by intestinal glands in gastric mucosa. CAG was recognized to be closely related with development of gastric cancer and listed as precancerous lesions in this meeting (Genta, 1998). According to Correa (1992)’s cascade of gas-tric carcinogenesis, gastric cancer was believed to develop fr…  相似文献

A new optimization algorithm based on chaos   总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8  
INTRODUCTION Chaos (Wang et al., 2002) is a common nonlin- ear phenomenon, whose action is complex and similar to that of randomness. The characteristics of chaos being highly sensitive to the initial value of chaos make a world of differences due to the ergodic prop- erty of the phase space—chaos can go through all states in certain ranges without repetition; the inher- ent randomness of the system—means that chaos behavior is similar to randomness which is disorderly; but at the same t…  相似文献

INTRODUCTION Recently discovered as an endocrine organ, adi-pose tissue can secrete many cytokines such as Re-sistin, adiponectin and free fatty acids, and receives much attention in the study of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). As a peptide hor-mone secreted by adipocyte, Resistin is considered to be the linkage between obesity and insulin resistance (Steppan et al., 2001). Most studies on Resistin in-vestigate adipose tissue. In this experiment we de-tected t…  相似文献

In this paper, a modified transient finite element (FE) algorithm for the performance analysis of magnetically levitated vehicles of electromagnetic type is presented. The algorithm incorporates the external power system and vehicle’s movement equations into FE model of transient magnetic field computation directly. Sliding interface between stationary and moving region is used during the transient analysis. The periodic boundaries are implemented in an easy way to reduce the computation scale. It is proved that this method can be used for both electro-motional static and dynamic cases. The test of a transformer and an EMS-Maglev system reveals that the method generates reasonable results at very low computational costs comparing with the transient FE analysis.  相似文献

Objective: To study the relationship between cholecystolithiasis and polypoid gallbladder(PLG), 260 patients with polypoid gallbladder were investigated. The patients were divided into 2 groups: group A (PLG combined with cholecystolithiasis) and group B (without cholecystolithiasis). The clinical pathological characteristics were analyzed. The intestinal epithelium metaplasia and atypical hyperplasia of the gallbladder mucosa were observed under light microscope. Results: Intestinal epithelium metaplasia and atypical hyperplasia of gallbladder mucosa were found in 47 of the 260 cases. The pathological lesions included 16 gallbladder carcinoma, 11 adenomatosis polyp, 5 myoadenoma, 7 cholesterol polyp, 4 inflammatory polyp and 4 adenomatosis hyperplasia, which occurred in 26 and 21 patients in group A and group B, i. e. 44.0% and 10.3% respectively. The difference between group A and group B was statistically significant (P<0.01). Conclusion: Cholecystolithiasis and the succeeding inflammatory reaction is a risk-factor for the polypoid gallbladder to develop tumour.

INTRODUCTION Image registration plays an important role in the fusion of remote sensing, video panorama, medical image processing, etc. (Li et al., 1995; 2004; Brown, 1992; Belongie et al., 2001; Rui et al., 2001). More different than video panorama, the registration of multi-sensor image needs to align the multi-sensor images of the same scene from different sources (Rignot et al., 1991). Multi-sensor image registration is widely used in the fusion of panchromatic images with infrared i…  相似文献

Adjuvant effects of saponins on animal immune responses   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Vaccines require optimal adjuvants including immunopotentiator and delivery systems to offer long term protection from infectious diseases in animals and man. Initially it was believed that adjuvants are responsible for promoting strong and sustainable antibody responses. Now it has been shown that adjuvants influence the isotype and avidity of antibody and also affect the properties of cell-mediated immunity. Mostly oil emulsions, lipopolysaccharides, polymers, saponins, liposomes, cytokines, ISCOMs (immunostimulating complexes), Freund’s complete adjuvant, Freund’s incomplete adjuvant, alums, bacterial toxins etc., are common adjuvants under investigation. Saponin based adjuvants have the ability to stimulate the cell mediated immune system as well as to enhance antibody production and have the advantage that only a low dose is needed for adjuvant activity. In the present study the importance of adjuvants, their role and the effect of saponin in immune system is reviewed.  相似文献

INTRODUCTION Metamaterials are periodic metallic structures exhibiting unique properties not existing in natural materials. They are also called backward wave mate- rials, double negative materials, or left-handed mate- rials (LHM) in particular, in which the vectors E, H and k form a left-handed system. Since the idea pro- posed by Veselago (1968), metamaterials have at- tracted great interest in the last years (Smith et al., 2000; Pendry, 2000; Smith and Kroll, 2000; Shelby et al., …  相似文献

Background: Edaravone had been validated to effectively protect against ischemic injuries. In this study, we investigated the protective effect of edaravone by observing the effects on anti-apoptosis, regulation of Bcl-2/Bax protein expression and recovering from damage to mitochondria after OGD (oxygen-glucose deprivation)-reperfusion. Methods: Viability of PC 12 cells which were injured at different time of OGD injury, was quantified by measuring MTT (2-(4,5-dimethylthia-zol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) staining. In addition, PC 12 cells' viability was also quantified after their preincubation in different concentration of edaravone for 30 min followed by (OGD). Furthermore, apoptotic population of PC 12 cells that reinsulted from OGD-reperfusion with or without preincubation with edaravone was determined by flow cytometer analysis, electron microscope and Hoechst/Pl staining. Finally, change of Bcl-2/Bax protein expression was detected by Western blot. Results: (1) The viability of PC12 cells decreased with time (1-12 h) after OGD. We regarded the model of OGD 2 h, then replacing DMEM (Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium) for another 24 h as an OGD-reperfusion in this research. Furthermore, most PC 12 cells were in the state of apoptosis after OGD-reperfusion. (2) The viability of PC 12 cells preincubated with edaravone at high concentrations (1, 0.1, 0.01 μmol/L) increased significantly with edaravone protecting PC 12 cells from apoptosis after OGD-reperfusion injury. (3) Furthermore, edaravone attenuates the damage of OGD-reperfusion on mitochondria and regulated Bcl-2/Bax protein imbalance expression after OGD-reperfusion. Conclusion: Neuroprotective effects of edaravone on ischemic or other brain injuries may be partly mediated through inhibition of Bcl-2/Bax apoptotic pathways by recovering from the damage of mitochondria.  相似文献

In this paper, a low-cost measurement approach with bi-beam was presented, which can be used for real-time detection and online analysis of solution refractive index, based on systematical analysis and experiments of conventional detection methods on surface plasmon resonance sensor. This novel method was analyzed theoretically and based on it a sensor system set was established. The factors that affect the sensor's sensitivity and working range were discussed. The angular adjustment setup was simplified, errors produced by movable components were avoided and the maneuverability was enhanced with this new method. The noiseproof feature and stability of the sensor system were greatly improved as well.  相似文献

The dense granule protein 4 (GRA4) is a granular protein from Toxoplasma gondii, and is a candidate for vaccination against this parasite. In this study, the plasmid pcDNA3.1-GRA4 (pGRA4), encoding for the GRA4 antigen, was incorporated by the dehydration-rehydration method into liposomes composed of 16 mmol/L egg phosphatidylcholine (PC), 8 mmol/L dioleoyl phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE), and 4 mmol/L 1,2-diodeoyl-3-(trimethylammonium) propane (DOTAP). C57BL/6 mice and BALB/c mice were immunized intramuscularly three times with liposome-encapsulated pGRA4 to determine whether DNA immunization could elicit a protective immune response to T. gondii. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) of sera from immunized mice showed that liposome-encapsulated pGRA4 generated high levels of IgG antibodies to GRA4. Production of primary interferon (IFN)-γ and interleukin (IL)-2 in GRA4-stimulated splenocytes from vaccinated mice suggested a modulated Th1-type response. 72.7% of C57BL/6 mice immunized with liposome-encapsulated pGRA4 survived the challenge with 80 tissue cysts of ME49 strain, whereas C57BL/6 mice immunized with pGRA4 had only a survival rate of 54.5%. When immunized BALB/c mice were intraperitoneally challenged with 103 tachyzoites of the highly virulent RH strain, the survival time of mice immunized with liposome-encapsulated pGRA4 was markedly longer than that of other groups. Our observations show that liposome-encapsulated pGRA4 enhanced the protective effect against infection of T. gondii.

To evaluate the public health risk of exposure to microcystins in fish food in China, the distribution pattem of microcystin-LR and microcystin-RR in various organs (liver, intestine, kidney, muscle and lipid) of the dominant freshwater phytoplanktivorous fish Hypophthalmichthys molitrix in Hangzhou, China's Tiesha River was investigated with the method of HPLC-ESI-MS analysis. The distribution of microcystins was different in the fish organs and the major total microcystins (microcystin-LR and microcystin-RR) were present in the intestines (6.49 μg/g fresh weight), followed by the livers (4.52 μg/g fresh weight) and the muscles (2.86 μg/g fresh weight). Microcystins were detected in kidneys (1.35 μg/g fresh weight), but not detected in lipid. The results suggested that the mean daily intake from fish was 0.03 μg/kg body weight which was very close to the recommended WHO tolerable daily intake (TDI) level of 0.04μg/kg body weight per day, and local people were wamed they may have health risk if they consumed fish from the river.  相似文献
