by Jie Zhao, Jianshan Wang, Jiehua Huang

The swimming pool reactor (SPR) is an innovative and environmentally friendly heating source. An SPR building was selected as the research subject, and a 3D dynamic interaction model incorporating the liquid sloshing effect was created using ANSYS software and the secondary development characteristics of user-programmable features (UPFs). Energy dissipation from scattered waves was accounted for using viscous-spring boundary elements, while the dynamic... Читать дальше...

Introduction

The apple industry is an essential industry to assist in rural revitalization. However, in recent years, the urbanization, industrialization, globalization and climate change have brought various challenges to the apple industry in China’s main apple-producing provinces. Given this, effectively identifying, enhancing on apple production comparative advantage (APCA) is imperative to safeguard the long-term sustainable development of China’s apple industry.

Background

Asthma, a prevalent chronic respiratory condition, is characterized by airway remodeling. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) NEAT1 has been demonstrated to participate in airway fibrosis. Furthermore, the miR-204-5p/Six1 axis significantly influences epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT). However, the function of NEAT1/miR-204-5p/Six1 in asthmatic EMT remains unclear.

Purpose

This study intends to elucidate the function... Читать дальше...

Sintilimab plus chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab biosimilar IBI305 in EGFR-mutated non-squamous NSCLC patients who progressed on EGFR TKI therapy: A China-based cost-effectiveness analysis

by Juan Peng, Huiling Xu, Qiao Liu

Background

This study aims to compare the cost-effectiveness of sintilimab in combination with chemotherapy, with or without bevacizumab biosimilar IBI305, versus chemotherapy alone for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have progressed on tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment from the perspective of the Chinese healthcare system.

Methods

10-year Markov model was developed using a 21-day cycle length. Читать дальше...

by Simon Vrhovec, Blaž Markelj

Cyberattacks pose a significant business risk to organizations. Although there is ample literature focusing on why people pose a major risk to organizational cybersecurity and how to deal with it, there is surprisingly little we know about cyber and information security decision-makers who are essentially the people in charge of setting up and maintaining organizational cybersecurity. In this paper, we study cybersecurity awareness of cyber and information security decision-makers... Читать дальше...
