UsingIncoloy 028 alloy as a model system, experiments aiming to provide kinetic data （e.g., the size and volume fraction of recrystallizedgrain） and the associated microstructure were performed. Good agreement is obtained between model predictions and experimentalresults, regarding flow stress, recrystallized fraction and grain size evolution. On this basis, a thermo-kinetic relationship upon thegrowth of recrystallized grain was elucidated, i.e., with increasing thermodynamic driving force, the activation energy barrierdecreases.展开更多

Moreover, 30 healthy individuals who came for physical examinations in the same period were served as the control group. ELISA was used to detect the plasma ET-1 and IL-8 levels, and their correlation was analyzed. The arterial blood gas and coagulation fibrinolysis indicators among the three groups were compared.Results: The plasma ET-1 and IL-8 levels in observation 1 and 2 groups were significantly higher than those in the control group. The plasma ET-1 and IL-8 levels in observation 1 group were significantly higher than those in observation 2 group. PaO2 in observation 1 and 2 groups was significantly lower than that in the control group, while PaCO2 was significantly higher than that in the control group. The comparison of PaO2 and PaCO2 between the two groups was not statistically significant. PT and APTT in observation 1 and 2 groups were significantly shortened when compared with the control group, while TT was significantly delayed. PT in observation 1 group was significantly shortened when compared with observation 2 group. Fbg and t-PA contents in observation 1 and 2 groups were significantly higher than those in the control group. Fbg, t-PA, and D-D contents in observation 1 group were significantly higher than those in observation 2 group.Conclusions:The hypercoagulation state is presenting in patients with AECOPD merged with CHD, with increased ET-1 and IL-8, both of which can play a synergistic effect, and are involved in the pathogenesis.展开更多

Methods： Seventy-eight patients with upper extremity edema after operation of breast cancer with Yin Syndrome were given wet compress with prescription and nursing guidance. The symptom score of affected extremity was observed before and 14 days after treatment, and the total effective rate was evaluated. Results： Twenty-three cases were markedly effective, 41 cases were effective and 14 cases were Invalid. The total effective rate was 82.1%. There was no significant difference between the two groups according to stage I and stage II of edema （P 〉 0.05）. Conclusion： WYHX can effectively improve the discomfort symptoms of upper limb edema and cold after breast cancer surgery, and is worthy of clinical application.展开更多

To assess the prevalence and genotype of C. psittaci in birds in Kunming, Yunnan, China, a total of 136 specimens of psittacine birds involving 8 species were collected from the city＇s zoos （n=60） and pet markets （n=76）. The frequency of C. psittaci infection was 19.9% （27/136） in the psittacine birds. The prevalence of C. psittaci was higher in pet birds （26.3%; 20/76） than in zoo birds （11.7%; 7/60） （P=0.034）. In particular, among Agapornis fischeri, the C. psittaci infection （50%; 10/20） was significantly more frequent in the pet markets than in the zoos （P=-0.006）. In addition, the highest prevalence of 41.2% （7/17） was found in Ara ararauna. To determine the genotype of C. psittaci, 23 OmpA gene fragments （about 1.4 kb） in 27 positive samples were successfully amplified and sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis showed that all the 23 strains belonged to genotype A. Our results demonstrate the high prevalence of C. psittaci genotype A infection in psittacine birds in Yunnan Province, suggesting a potential threat to human health in this area. Therefore, it is necessary to take effective measures to prevent the spread of C. psittaci among psittacine birds, as well as among employees and customers.展开更多
