The red color formation of Acer mandshuricum leaves is caused by the accumulation of anthocyanins primarily, but the molecular mechanism researches which underlie anthocyanin biosynthesis in A. mandshuricum were still lacking. Therefore, we combined the transcriptome and metabolome and analyzed the regulatory mechanism and accumulation pattern of anthocyanins in three different leaf color states. In our results, 26 anthocyanins were identified. Notably, the metabolite cyanidin 3-O-glucoside was found that significantly correlated with the color formation, was the predominant metabolite in anthocyanin biosynthesis of A. mandshuricum. By the way, two key structural genes ANS (Cluster-20561.86285) and BZ1 (Cluster-20561.99238) in anthocyanidin biosynthesis pathway were significantly up-regulated in RL, suggesting that they might enhance accumulation of cyanidin 3-O-glucoside which is their downstream metabolite, and contributed the red formation of A. mandshuricum leaves. Additionally, most TFs (e.g., MYBs, bZIPs and bHLHs) were detected differentially expressed in three leaf color stages that could participate in anthocyanin accumulation. This study sheds light on the anthocyanin molecular regulation of anthocyanidin biosynthesis and accumulation underlying the different leaf color change periods in A. mandshuricum, and it could provide basic theory and new insight for the leaf color related genetic improvement of A. mandshuricum.
Objective
The aim of the present study was to summarize the clinical efficacy of three‐dimensional (3D) printing technology combined with the Masquelet technique in the treatment of calcaneal defects.
Methods
From January 2018 to April 2019, 3D printing combined with induced masquelet technology was used to treat four patients with calcaneal defects, including two men and two women. The patients were aged 22–52 years old, with an average age of 36 years. There were two cases of traffic accident injuries, there was one case of a fall from height, and there was one case of crush injury. CT scans were used to reconstruct the bilateral calcaneus, mirror technology was used to construct the bone defect area, and Materialise 3‐matic software was used to design the calcaneus shaper mold and 3D print the mold. During the operation, the mold was used to shape the bone cement and fill the bone defect. In the second stage, the bone cement was removed and autologous bone was implanted to repair the bone defect. All patients were followed up to observe the effect.
Results
All four patients were followed up for 14 months (range, 10–18 months). There were three cases of infectious bone defects: two cases of Escherichia coli and one case of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The 3D printed mold was used to shape the bone cement. During the operation, it was found to have a high degree of matching with the defect area of calcaneus. There is no need to adjust it again, and the wound healed well after the first stage. In the second stage of surgery, it was found that the induced membrane formed was complete and of appropriate size; the bone cement was easily removed during the operation. The fracture healing time was 3–6 months, with an average of 4 months. At the last follow up, there was no pain and the patients walked with full weight bearing. The Maryland score was 94 points (range, 88–98 points); three cases were excellent and one case was good. The AOFAS score ranged from 86 to 98, with an average of 92.8 points; three cases were excellent and one case was good.
Conclusion
Three‐dimensional printing technology combined with induced membrane technology is an effective approach for treating calcaneal bone defects.
Spatial downscaling is an important approach to obtain high-resolution land surface temperature (LST) for thermal environment research. However, existing downscaling methods are unable to sufficiently address both spatial heterogeneity and complex nonlinearity, especially in high-resolution scenes (<120 m), and accordingly limit the representation of regional details and accuracy of temperature inversion. In this study, by integrating normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), normalized difference building index (NDBI), digital elevation model (DEM), and slope data, a high-resolution surface temperature downscaling method based on geographically neural network weighted regression (GNNWR) was developed to effectively handle the problem of surface temperature downscaling. The results show that the proposed GNNWR model achieved superior downscaling accuracy (maximum R2 of 0.974 and minimum RMSE of 0.896 °C) compared to widely used methods in four test areas with large differences in topography, landforms, and seasons. We also achieved the best extracted and most detailed spatial textures. Our findings suggest that GNNWR is a practical method for surface temperature downscaling considering its high accuracy and model performance.
Magnetoacoustic impedance tomography with magnetic induction (MAT-MI) is a new imaging method. Its images reflect conductivity distribution. In this paper, we firstly proposed the numerical simulation method of multi-physics fields coupling to obtain the distribution of acoustic field in MAT-MI without the static magnetic field. Simple acoustic detection experiments are conducted to validate the algorithm. The results demonstrated its feasibility, and may provide some theoretical foundation for the further research on the real-time detection of acoustic signals and the reconstruction method of the MAT-MI.
Abstract. The detection of goaf is of great significance to the safe operation of power grid. In the traditional goaf detection technologies, electromagnetic detection method is more suitable for the detection of goaf under the transmission power line. There are many factors affect the effectiveness of the goaf detection, and it is very necessary to analyze these influence factors. In this paper, finite element analysis method has carried on the preliminary discussion to goaf detection effectiveness, and the influence of depth, size and water filling of coal mine goaf on the detection results are analyzed.
