Background: The aim of this study was to establish the feasibility and efficiency of different pelvic drainage routes after laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection (LAPR) for rectal cancer by assessing short-term outcomes. Materials and Methods: Clinicopathological data of 76 patients undergoing LAPR for very low rectal cancer were reviewed retrospectively between June 2005 and June 2014. Outcomes were evaluated considering short-term results. Results: Of 76 relevant patients at our institution in the period of study, trans-perineal drainage of the pelvic cavity was performed in 17 cases. Compared with the trans-perineal group, the length of hospital stay was shorter in the trans-abdominal group, while the duration of drainage and the infection rates of the perineal wounds between two groups showed no significant differences. Conclusions: The outcomes of this study suggest that trans-abdominal drainage of pelvic cavity is a reliable and feasible procedure, the duration of drainage, infection rates and the healing rates of the perineal wounds being acceptable. Trans-abdominal drainage has a more satisfactory effect after laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection for rectal carcinoma.

The lifetimes of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been successfully enhanced with the modulation of LiF thickness and the utilization of encapsulating adhesives, which have been successfully and quickly synthesized with UV irradiation. Experimental results demonstrate that LiF and lab-made encapsulating adhesives can block the invasion of moisture as well as oxygen in the atmosphere into the OLEDs so that the lifetimes of devices with their encapsulation are 18-folds longer than those without encapsulation.

In this study, a generic intelligent wireless sensing platform with the IoT and wireless transmission technology is established for greenhouse monitoring, which is capable of greenhouse data collection and analysis. The data analyzed by a cloud server would provide important information regarding the efficiency of greenhouse management and cultivation methods. To monitor greenhouse related parameters, an embedded board is placed in a greenhouse as the gateway. Monitoring data and images collected by sensors deployed in the greenhouse are transmitted to the embedded board via an Ethernet or wireless transmission module. The data are eventually sent to a database by wireless AP. The AP connects to the internet by using a 4G USB dongle, which can provide sufficient data transmission speed for real-time data transmission. In wireless hotspots and areas with Wi-Fi, not only can images be transmitted to the cloud, but also can the mobile APP be used to perform remote monitoring, so experimental observations are no longer affected by geographical impacts. Moreover, to ensure the preservation of images and numeric data, the gateway carries a high durability secure digital (SD) memory card to store images and data; if the network encounters some problems, such as unable to connect and a lack of network traffic, the data can be stored in the SD card. Thus, the proposed platform is able to perform heavy information transmission duties and support performing all wireless monitoring tasks. In addition, the analyzed data can be used by agricultural personnel to provide critical cultivation suggestions.

Background and Purpose Oral nucleos(t)ide analogs (NAs) are the mainstay treatment for chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Myotoxicity is an important extrahepatic effect related to NA treatment. Telbivudine is the NA for CHB that is frequently associated with muscle-related side effects. The risk factors for telbivudine-induced myopathy (TIM) are not yet clear. Methods This study characterized the clinical, magnetic resonance images (MRI), and pathological features of 12 TIM cases. A group of telbivudine-tolerant (TT) patients with CHB who received regular telbivudine treatment during the same period without the occurrence of myopathy was collected. Demographic and clinical factors were compared between the patients with TIM and the TT controls. Factors independently associated with TIM were identified using logistic regression analysis. Results The patients with TIM (males/females: 7/5, mean age: 57 years) developed myopathy after using telbivudine for a median period of 19.5 months. Muscle histopathology revealed abnormal proliferation, subsarcolemmal or sarcoplasmic accumulations, and ultrastructural defects of mitochondria. When compared with TT cases, patients with TIM had a lower estimated glomerular filtration rate and were more frequently positive for hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg). Conclusions Mitochondrial abnormalities are characteristic histopathological features, and impaired renal function and HBeAg positivity are risk factors for TIM. Telbivudine-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and immune activation related to mitochondrial damage and HBeAg serostatus changes may underlie TIM. Constant clinical surveillance of myopathy during telbivudine treatment is needed due to the significant latency of its development. Dose adjustment for impaired renal function does not eliminate the risk of TIM occurrence.

포스트 코로나 시대에는 사람의 생활방식이 바뀌면서 인터넷 쇼핑으로 단순히 적합한 제품을 선택하고, 기대한 욕구를 충족시키기 위한 것뿐만 아니라, 중요한 레저 오락 방식이며, 각 쇼핑 플랫폼을 통해 원하는 상품을 구매하는 것보다 소비자들은 쇼핑 플랫폼이 제공하는 서비스에 대해서도 중시하는 것을 알 수 있다. 4차 산업혁명으로 인공지능, 빅데이터 등 기술을 활용하여 소비자의 취향과 선호에 맞춰 상품을 추천해주는 상품추천 서비스가 확산되고 있다. 이어 본 연구목적은 첫째, 중국 소비자를 대상으로 조사하여 타오바오 쇼핑 플랫폼에서 제공한 추천 서비스의 특성이 만족도에 대한 어떠한 영향을 미치는지, 그리고 만족도는 지속사용의도에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 검증할 것이다. 둘째, 제품 유형에 따른 추천 서비스 특성이 만족도에 차이가 있는지를 살펴볼 것이다. 연구 결과에 따르면 첫째, 추천 서비스의 특성이 만족도에 부분적으로 영향을 미쳤다. 즉 개인화, 정확성, 신뢰성은 만족도에 긍정적으로 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 채택되었다. 하지만 의외성은 만족도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치지 않은 것으로 나타나 가설이 기각되었다. 둘째 만족도는 지속 사용 의도에 긍정적으로 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 채택되었다. 마지막으로 제품 유형은 경험재와 탐색재로 구분하여 개인화 추천 서비스의 개인화 특성, 의외성이 제품 유형에 따라 만족도에 차이가 있는 것으로 결과를 밝혔다. In the post-COVID-19 era, with the changes in people’s lifestyles, online shopping is not only for choosing the right products and meeting expectations, but also an important way of leisure and entertainment. Consumers not only buy the products they want through various shopping platforms, but they also value the services provided by the shopping platforms. With the 4th industrial revolution, product recommendation services that use technologies such as artificial intelligence and big data to recommend products according to consumer tastes and preferences are spreading. Next, the purpose of this study is to first examine how the characteristics of the recommended service provided by the Taobao shopping platform affect satisfaction by surveying Chinese consumers and how satisfaction affects their intention to continue using it. Second, we will examine whether there is a difference in satisfaction with the recommended service characteristics according to product type. According to the research results, firstly, the characteristics of the recommendation service partially affect the satisfaction. Specifically, personalization, accuracy, and reliability were found to positively influence satisfaction. However, the serendipity was rejected because serendipity had no positive effect on satisfaction. Second, satisfaction was found to have a positive effect on intention to continue using and was therefore adopted. Finally, the product types are divided into experience products and search products. The results show that the personalization and serendipity of personalized recommendation services have different satisfaction due to different product types.

OPEN SERVICE INNOVATION: PROPOSED ANTECEDENTS AND MODERATORS FROM KNOWLEDGE-BASED VIEW

Fu-Sheng Tsai,Julia L. Lin,Yu-Chia Chen 글로벌지식마케팅경영학회 2016 Global Marketing Conference Vol.2016 No.7

The present paper discusses the interrelationship among knowledge creation, heterogeneity, and open service innovation – an important theme of marketing research. Drawing on the literature of knowledge based innovation, we argue that both researchers and practitioners should extend the functionality of created knowledge into open and service-oriented innovation context. Our conceptual framework represent the following major points. First, the four classic knowledge creation mode each has different influences on open service innovation, given employee and customer knowledge is a cornerstone of service innovation. Specifically, socialization positively, externalization positively, combination positively, and internalization negatively predicts open service innovation. Second, knowledge heterogeneity moderates in the above mentioned relationships. Implication are discussed

Study of the Optimal Film Structure by Using Conventional Elipsometry

Liang-Yao Chen,Ming-Yu Sheng,Yun-Hua Wu,Yuan Zhao,Yue-Rui Chen,Yu-Xiang Zheng 한국물리학회 2008 THE JOURNAL OF THE KOREAN PHYSICAL SOCIETY Vol.53 No.2

The optimal film structure affected by the space effect has been studied for SiO2 film samples deposited onto Si wafers by using the e-beam evaporation method. The ellipsometric data were measured at different incidence angles and in the 300-800-nm wavelength range. In the range where the phase delay δ is close to π, the film thickness deduced from the conventional ellipsometry model varied with the phase delay. The optimal SiO2 film-thickness was achieved with a modified ellipsometric model, including the space effect. The results given in this work can generally be applied to other optical measurement methods used to study film structures.
