Lei Wu,Zhongwei Hou,Can Tan,Dengyuan Xu 보안공학연구지원센터 2016 International Journal of Future Generation Communi Vol.9 No.10

This paper presents a kind of DV-Hop localization algorithm based on distance correction of nodes. This algorithm introduces the concept of distance correction factor and combines with the node communication radius to correct the average distance of each hop between unknown node and anchor node,and makes it be closer to the real value. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can reduce the average localization error of node, and when the value of distance correction factor is 0.8,the average localization error of node under DA-DV-Hop localization algorithm is reduced 15.53% than the traditional DV-Hop localization algorithm.

Can Mei,Zhendong Zhao,Yongshan Zhang,Dayang Wang,Chengqing Wu 대한토목학회 2021 KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering Vol.25 No.8

This paper investigates the impact of configuration parameters on the seismic performance of the modular prefabricated two-side connected composite shear wall. Firstly, the finite element model of the modular prefabricated two-side connected composite shear wall was established and validated by Xu’s experimental results. Secondly, three aspects of parameter investigationswere discussed in detail based on the validated numerical technology, namely the design parameter of ISP, design parameter of the stud, and design parameter of reinforced concrete faceplate (RCF). Then, the computation formula of shear capacity is deduced on the basis of the finite element model for reference to structural design. The results of parameter analysis displayed that the seismic performance of the modular prefabricated two-side connected composite shear wall has excellent seismic performance with the array studs of the length-diameter ratio of 4 which the center distance of 150 mm, and RCF with the thickness of 75 mm. A satisfactory but unadventurous estimation of the shear capacity of a modular prefabricated two-side connected composite shear wall is supplied by the advised technique.

Social-Aware Collaborative Caching Based on User Preferences for D2D Content Sharing

( Can Zhang ),( Dan Wu ),( Liang Ao ),( Meng Wang ),( Yueming Cai ) 한국인터넷정보학회 2020 KSII Transactions on Internet and Information Syst Vol.14 No.3

With rapid growth of content demands, device-to-device (D2D) content sharing is exploited to effectively improve the service quality of users. Considering the limited storage space and various content demands of users, caching schemes are significant. However, most of them ignore the influence of the asynchronous content reuse and the selfishness of users. In this work, the user preferences are defined by exploiting the user-oriented content popularity and the current caching situation, and further, we propose the social-aware rate, which compre-hensively reflects the achievable contents download rate affected by the social ties, the caching indicators, and the user preferences. Guided by this, we model the collaborative caching problem by making a trade-off between the redundancy of caching contents and the cache hit ratio, with the goal of maximizing the sum of social-aware rate over the constraint of limited storage space. Due to its intractability, it is computationally reduced to the maximi-zation of a monotone submodular function, subject to a matroid constraint. Subsequently, two social-aware collaborative caching algorithms are designed by leveraging the standard and continuous greedy algorithms respectively, which are proved to achieve different approxima-tion ratios in unequal polynomial-time. We present the simulation results to illustratethe performance of our schemes.

Yun Lin,Can Wang,Chunguang Ma,Zheng Dou,Zhiqiang Wu,Zhiping Zhang 보안공학연구지원센터 2016 International Journal of Grid and Distributed Comp Vol.9 No.2

Information entropy features are often used for radiation source signal recognition, but due to the information entropy is very sensitive to noise, so this method has greater recognition rate changes with the SNR. This paper putting forward a viable recognition based on Entropy and cloud model. using cloud model to extract secondary features of signals, build radiation source signal’s entropy and cloud feature vector. The method uses cloud model description and processing interval fuzzy and observation noise data, better solve the low SNR cases of radiation source signal feature extraction problem. At the same time, putting forward the similar cloud classification recognition algorithm based on cloud model. The simulation results show that Entropy and cloud model has better recognition effect under low SNR, which can improve the signals’ recognition rate under low SNR.

Chi, Feng,Wu, Rong,Zeng, Yue-Can,Xing, Rui,Liu, Yang,Xu, Zhao-Guo Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2013 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.14 No.4

Background and Objectives: Data on associations between soy food intake after cancer diagnosis with breast cancer survival are conflicting, so we conducted this meta-analysis for more accurate evaluation. Methods: Comprehensive searches were conducted to find cohort studies of the relationship between soy food intake after cancer diagnosis and breast cancer survival. Data were analyzed with comprehensive meta-analysis software. Results: Five cohort studies (11,206 patients) were included. Pooling all comparisons, soy food intake after diagnosis was associated with reduced mortality (HR 0.85, 95%CI 0.77 0.93) and recurrence (HR 0.79, 95%CI 0.72 0.87). Pooling the comparisons of highest vs. lowest dose, soy food intake after diagnosis was again associated with reduced mortality (HR 0.84, 95%CI 0.71 0.99) and recurrence (HR 0.74, 95%CI 0.64 0.85). Subgroup analysis of ER status showed that soy food intake was associated with reduced mortality in both ER negative (highest vs. lowest: HR 0.75, 95%CI 0.64 0.88) and ER positive patients (highest vs. lowest: HR 0.72, 95%CI 0.61 0.84), and both premenopausal (highest vs. lowest: HR 0.78, 95%CI 0.69 0.88) and postmenopausal patients (highest vs. lowest: HR 0.81, 95%CI 0.73 0.91). In additioin, soy food intake was associated with reduced recurrence in ER negative (highest vs. lowest: HR 0.64, 95%CI 0.44 0.94) and ER+/PR+ (highest vs. lowest: HR 0.65, 95%CI 0.49 0.86), and postmenopausal patients (highest vs. lowest: HR 0.67, 95%CI 0.56 0.80). Conclusion: Our meta-analysis showed that soy food intake might be associated with better survival, especially for ER negative, ER+/PR+, and postmenopausal patients.

Sublytic C5b-9 induces glomerular mesangial cell proliferation via ERK1/2-dependent SOX9 phosphorylation and acetylation by enhancing Cyclin D1 in rat Thy-1 nephritis

Xie Mengxiao,Wu Zhijiao,Ying Shuai,Liu Longfei,Zhao Chenhui,Yao Chunlei,Zhang Zhiwei,Luo Can,Wang Wenbo,Zhao Dan,Zhang Jing,Qiu Wen,Qiu Wen 생화학분자생물학회 2021 Experimental and molecular medicine Vol.53 No.-

Glomerular mesangial cell (GMC) proliferation is a histopathological alteration in human mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis (MsPGN) or in animal models of MsPGN, e.g., the rat Thy‐1 nephritis (Thy-1N) model. Although sublytic C5b-9 assembly on the GMC membrane can trigger cell proliferation, the mechanisms are still undefined. We found that sublytic C5b-9-induced rat GMC proliferation was driven by extracellular signal‐regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), sry-related HMG-box 9 (SOX9), and Cyclin D1. Here, ERK1/2 phosphorylation was a result of the calcium influx-PKC-α-Raf-MEK1/2 axis activated by sublytic C5b-9, and Cyclin D1 gene transcription was enhanced by ERK1/2-dependent SOX9 binding to the Cyclin D1 promoter (−582 to −238 nt). In addition, ERK1/2 not only interacted with SOX9 in the cell nucleus to mediate its phosphorylation at serine residues 64 (a new site identified by mass spectrometry) and 181 (a known site), but also indirectly induced SOX9 acetylation by elevating the expression of general control non-repressed protein 5 (GCN5), which together resulted in Cyclin D1 synthesis and GMC proliferation. Moreover, our in vivo experiments confirmed that silencing these genes ameliorated the lesions of Thy‐1N rats and reduced SOX9 phosphorylation, acetylation and Cyclin D1 expression. Furthermore, the renal tissue sections of MsPGN patients also showed higher phosphorylation or expression of ERK1/2, SOX9, and Cyclin D1. In summary, these findings suggest that sublytic C5b-9-induced GMC proliferation in rat Thy-1N requires SOX9 phosphorylation and acetylation via enhanced Cyclin D1 gene transcription, which may provide a new insight into human MsPGN pathogenesis.

Association between Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings of the Pelvic Floor and de novo Stress Urinary Incontinence after Vaginal Delivery

Na Li,Can Cui,Yue Cheng,Yanhong Wu,Jianzhong Yin,Wen Shen 대한영상의학회 2018 Korean Journal of Radiology Vol.19 No.4

Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the contributions of levator ani muscle (LAM) injury, vesical neck movement, urethral length and mobility, and urethral sphincter dysfunction observed on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) towards stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after vaginal delivery. Materials and Methods: Fifty primiparous women after 6 months of delivery (15 with SUI and 35 without) and 35 nulliparous as continent controls underwent MRI at rest and Valsalva maneuver. A published levator ani scoring system was used to characterize morphological changes of LAM. The severity of the injury was divided into three categories as none, minor, and major. A series of common parameters including levator plate angle, iliococcygeal angle, and levator hiatus were used to describe the functional conditions of LAM. Urethral mobility was defined based on the rotation of the urethra between Valsalva and rest status. Vesical neck movement was evaluated by its distance to the pubococcygeal line. Urethral sphincter dysfunction was defined as the widening of the proximal urethra and/or funneling at the urethrovesical junction during Valsalva. Results: Primiparous incontinent (PI) women had additional major levator ani defects (33.3% vs. 17.1%) while less minor defects (0.7% vs. 31.4%) than primiparous continent (PC) women. Vesical neck downward movement in PI women was more obvious than PC women (28.5 mm vs. 24.2 mm, p = 0.006). Urethral mobility was more active in primiparous women than in nulliparous continent controls (57.4 vs. 52.4), whereas no difference was observed on urethral mobility in the primiparous group (p = 0.25). Urethral sphincter dysfunction and funneling were present in 80% of PI women versus 22.9% in PC women (p < 0.001). Conclusion: The MRI findings revealed that de novo SUI was associated with major LAM injury, vesical neck downward movement as well as urethral sphincter dysfunction. Vesical neck funneling on sagittal images can be treated as a valuable predictor for SUI. The intervention for the PI should focus on the elevation of vesical neck, rehabilitation of LAM as well as recovery of the urethral sphincter muscle.

Microstructure and viscoelastic behavior of waterborne polyurethane/cellulose nanofiber nanocomposite

Hui Zhao,Kui-Can Li,Wei Wu,Qing Li,Yan Jiang,Bing-Xu Cheng,Chong-Xing Huang,Hua-Nan Li 한국공업화학회 2022 Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Vol.110 No.-

Cellulose nanofiber (CNF) has been widely used to reinforce the mechanical properties of waterbornepolyurethane (WPU). There are, however, few works that focus on structure, rheological behavior, andcreep resistance of WPU/CNF composites. To fill this research gap, in this work, the m-CNF was obtainedby c-aminopropyltriethoxysilane modification to improve the interfacial strength of CNF and WPU, andthen it was introduced into the polyurethane matrix. Structure characterization of WPU/m-CNFnanocomposites is performed using Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction(XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The obtainedresults show that with the increase of m-CNF, the hydrogen bonding index (HBI) increased, which meanta significant improvement in the mechanical properties. The tensile strength improved by 480%. Moreover, with the increase of m-CNF content, the viscosity, storage modulus, and loss modulus of thedispersions increased and showed more obvious shear-thinning behavior. In addition, m-CNF improvedthe thermal stability and creep resistance of WPU. The creep strain of WPU decreased from 3% to 0.2%. This work offers a simply feasible way to prepare environmental friendly green nanocomposites.
