The electronic structure and optical properties of SnO2 (110) / FAPbBrI2 (001) interface were studied using firstprinciples based on density functional theory (DFT). FAPbBrI2 is a direct bandgap semiconductor material with a bandgap value of 1. 58 eV. By constructing a model of the interface between SnO2 (110) and FAPbBrI2 (001), the lattice mismatch is found to be 4. 28%, and the interface binding energy is - 0. 116 eV/Å2, indicating the stability of this interface structure. Through the analysis of the density of states (DOS) of SnO2 (110) / FAPbBrI2 (001) interface, it was discovered that interface states primarily originated from hybridization of O 2p, I 5p, Br 4p, and Pb 6p orbital electrons at the interface. Charge density difference and Bader charge analysis reveal significant charge transfer at the interface, promoting bonding between the interface atoms and enhancing interface stability. And effective charge separation led to a significant improvement in the absorption coefficient of the SnO2 (110) / FAPbBrI2 (001) interface compared to the surfaces of SnO2 (110) and FAPbBrI2 (001).

Purpose: This study explores the effectiveness of a A Balanced Reading Approach for Children Always Designed to Achieve Best Results for All (ABRACADABRA; hereinafter, ABRA)—a web-based literacy program designed by Concordia University in Canada—on third-grade students in Nanjing, China. Design/Approach/Methods: Participants comprised 999 students from three treatment schools (N = 711) and three control schools (N = 288). Three different approaches were used in the treatment schools: namely, a computer laboratory once a week, noontime study after lunch, and single-game instruction (SG) during every English lesson. Interviews were also conducted with teachers, producing qualitative data. Findings: Following 20 weeks of intervention, the overall effect size was +0.05. The SG group reflected the smallest effect size (d = -0.52). The noontime study group produced an effect size of 0.39, and the laboratory group an effect size of 0.55. This study conducted interviews with teachers to gain a qualitative understanding of the differential impacts. In doing so, this study found that teachers in the SG group were poorly motivated due to a lack of school support and heavy workload, resulting in passive roles and low ABRA program intensity. Originality/Value: The results of this study indicate that ABRA is an effective means of improving Chinese students’ English literacy skills. Results also underscore the need for critical measures to encourage teachers to actively participate in the program.

Stony coral symbiotic fungi were used to investigate the effects of different culture conditions on the anti‑inflammatory activities and chemical diversities of their secondary metabolites. Based on the OSMAC (one stain many compounds) strategy, 31 strains of stony coral‑derived symbiotic fungi were cultured in small‑scale fermentation with potato dextrose broth (PDB) and brown rice medium at three salinities (0.3%, 3.0%, and 10.0%), respectively. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) ‑induced BV‑2 microglia were used as the inflammation model, from which the strains with anti‑inflammatory activity were selected. Via thin‑layer chromatography (TLC),ultra‑performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time‑of‑flight mass spectrometry (UPLC‑QTOF‑MS) and feature‑based molecular networking (FBMN), the chemical diversity of the secondary metabolites from the anti‑inflammatory active strains was further analyzed. The results showed that five strains demonstrated significant anti‑inflammatory activity under the brown rice medium conditions and showed moderate or strong inhibitory activity against LPS‑ induced nitric oxide (NO) release in BV‑2 cells, with a significant concentration‑dose dependence. While the crude extract of strain C3‑9 also showed the significant inhibition to NO production at low concentrations of 10 and 20 μg/mL, further TLC and FBMN analyses revealed that the secondary metabolites of strain C3‑9 were rich in anti‑inflammatory compounds and highly diverse. The secondary metabolites of the stony coral co‑epiphytic fungus C3‑9 have significant anti‑inflammatory activity and diversity, providing a basis for the subsequent discovery of anti‑ inflammatory active compounds.

[Objective] To addresses the problem of traversing multiple fields for agricultural robots in hilly terrain, a traversal path planning method is proposed by combining the Floyd algorithm with an improved genetic algorithm. The method provides a solution that can reduce the cost of agricultural robot operation and optimize the order of field traversal in order to improve the efficiency of farmland operation in hilly areas and realizes to predict how an agricultural robot can transition to the next field after completing its coverage path in the current field. [Methods] In the context of hilly terrain characterized by small and densely distributed field blocks, often separated by field ridges, where there was no clear connectivity between the blocks, a method to establish connectivity between the fields was proposed in the research. This method involved projecting from the corner node of the headland path in the current field to each segment of the headland path in adjacent fields vertically. The shortest projected segment was selected as the candidate connectivity path between the two fields, thus establishing potential connectivity between them. Subsequently, the connectivity was verified, and redundant segments or nodes were removed to further simplify the road network. This method allowed for a more accurate assessment of the actual distances between field blocks, thereby providing a more precise and feasible distance cost between field blocks for multi-block traversal sequence planning. Next, the classical graph algorithm, Floyd algorithm, was employed to address the shortest path problem for all pairs of nodes among the fields. The resulting shortest path matrix among headland path nodes within fields, obtained through the Floyd algorithm, allowed to determine the shortest paths and distances between any two endpoint nodes in different fields. This information was used to ascertain the actual distance cost required for agricultural machinery to transfer between fields. Furthermore, for the genetic algorithm in path planning, there were problems such as difficult parameter setting, slow convergence speed and easy to fall into the local optimal solution. This study improved the traditional genetic algorithm by implementing an adaptive strategy. The improved genetic algorithm in this study dynamically adjusted the crossover and mutation probabilities in each generation based on the fitness of the previous generation, adapting to the problem's characteristics. Simultaneously, it dynamically modified the ratio of parent preservation to offspring generation in the current generation, enhancing population diversity and improving global solution search capabilities. Finally, this study employed genetic algorithms and optimization techniques to address the field traversal order problem, akin to the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), with the aim of optimizing the traversal path for agricultural robots. The shortest transfer distances between field blocks obtained through the Floyd algorithm were incorporated as variables into the genetic algorithm for optimization. This process leads to the determination of an optimized sequence for traversing the field blocks and the distribution of entry and exit points for each field block. [Results and Discussions] A traversal path planning simulation experiment was conducted to compare the improved genetic algorithm with the traditional genetic algorithm. After 20 simulation experiments, the average traversal path length and the average convergence iteration count of the two algorithms were compared. The simulation results showed that, compared to the traditional genetic algorithm, the proposed improved genetic algorithm in this study shortened the average shortest path by 13.8%, with fewer iterations for convergence, and demonstrated better capability to escape local optimal solutions. To validate the effectiveness of the multi-field path planning method proposed in this study for agricultural machinery coverage, simulations were conducted using real agricultural field data and field operation parameters. The actual operating area located at coordinates (103.61°E, 30.47°N) was selected as the simulation subject. The operating area consisted of 10 sets of field blocks, with agricultural machinery operating parameters set at a minimum turning radius of 1.5 and a working width of 2. The experimental results showed that in terms of path length and path repetition rate, the present method showed more superior performance, and the field traversal order and the arrangement of imports and exports could effectively reduce the path length and path repetition rate. [Conclusions] The experimental results proved the superiority and feasibility of this study on the traversing path planning of agricultural machines in multiple fields, and the output trajectory coordinates of the algorithm can serve as a reference for both human operators and unmanned agricultural machinery during large-scale operations. In future research, particular attention will be given to addressing practical implementation challenges of intelligent algorithms, especially those related to the real-time aspects of navigation systems and challenges such as Kalman linear filtering. These efforts aim to enhance the applicability of the research findings in realworld scenarios. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BACKGROUND: At present, there is a controversy on the internal fixation for the femoral intertrochanteric fracture with fracture of lateral wall. The main method is the proximal femoral nail antirotation. The biomechanical study of intramedullary fixation for femoral intertrochanteric fracture with different lateral wall classifications is less. OBJECTIVE: To compare the biomechanical characteristics of proximal femoral nail antirotation in the treatment of femoral intertrochanteric fracture with different lateral wall classifications by finite element analysis, and to explore the influence of lateral wall on the internal fixation of femoral intertrochanteric fracture. METHODS: A healthy elderly female patient was selected. A 3D finite element model of proximal femur and proximal femoral nail antirotation was established by using Mimics 21.0, Geomagic Wrap, Creo 6.0 and Abaqus 2020 software according to the CT scanning data of proximal femur. The proximal femoral nail antirotation assembly model was established by simulating lateral wall stable, dangerous and ruptured intertrochanteric fractures. The Von Mises stress and displacement distributions of three models of internal fixation were observed under the same load in static and walking conditions. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The maximum Von Mises stress and displacement of A3.3 type intertrochanteric fracture were the largest under dynamic state; the maximum Von Mises stress was about twice of type A2.3, and 2.7 times of type A1.3; the maximum Von Mises displacement was about 1.5 times of type A2.3 and 3 times of type A1.3, and there was no significant difference among the various types under static state. (2) The Von Mises stress A3.3 at femoral neck, fracture end and main nail was larger than that of A1.3 and A2.3 under dynamic and static states, especially at main nail. (3) The Von Mises displacements of femoral head, femoral neck, fracture end, lateral wall, medial wall, main nail and spiral blade in A3.3 type were larger than that in A1.3 and A2.3 types; the change was not obvious under static state. (4) These results suggest that the integrity of the lateral wall can reduce the internal fixation stress, make the stress and displacement distribution more reasonable, and help to maintain the stability of intertrochanteric fracture.

AIM: To investigate the changes of cerebral parietal cortical aquaporin 4 （AQP4） and neural apoptosis induced by melatonin （MT） in bilirubin encephalopathy （BE）, and to determine the role of the mammalian target of the rapamycin （mTOR）/protein kinase C （PKC） signaling pathway in the therapeutic mechanism of MT for BE. METHODS: Eighty 7-day-old Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into sham group, BE group, MT group, PKC inhibitor （PKCi） group, and mTOR inhibitor （mTORi） group. The BE model was established in neonatal SD rats by injecting bilirubin solution into the cisterna magna. In the mTORi group, the mTOR inhibitor solution was then injected intraperitoneally 1 h before modeling, and the MT solution was injected intraperitoneally 30 min before modeling. At 24 h after modeling, the brains of neonatal SD rats were removed, and hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and Nissl staining were used to detect cortical pathological changes in each group. The water content of the cerebral cortex was measured using the wet-dry weight method, and the expression level of AQP4 in cerebral cortex was detected by immunofluorescence staining. TUNEL staining was used to detect the neuronal apoptosis, and the expression levels of AQP4, caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3 and PKCε were detected by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with BE group, HE and Nissl staining showed that MT alleviated unconjugated bilirubin （UCB）-induced neural damage. The wet-dry weight method showed that the water content of the cerebral parietal cortical area was decreased after treatment with MT. Immunofluorescence staining showed that AQP4 was mainly expressed along the vessels on the end feet membrane of astrocytes, and MT prevented increased AQP4 levels induced by UCB. TUNEL staining showed that MT alleviated the cerebral parietal cortical neuronal apoptosis caused by BE. Western blot showed that in comparison with sham group, AQP4 and cleaved caspase-3 expression levels were increased, and PKC expression was decreased in the parietal cortex of the rats in BE group. MT intervention reduced the increased expression levels of AQP4 and cleaved caspase-3, and decreased expression of PKCε. Treatment with PKCi or mTORi reversed the ameliorative effect of MT on the above-mentioned pathological changes in BE group. CONCLUSION: Treatment with MT induces potential neuroprotection in the neonatal SD rat model of BE by activating mTOR/PKC signaling pathway. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
