The traditional video monitoring system for coal mine gas extraction drilling site only has monitoring and storage functions during drilling construction and drill pipe withdrawal. Important process parameters or information can only be viewed by monitoring personnel through video recordings, which poses problems such as construction information being prone to errors and difficulty for drilling site management personnel to continuously monitor on-site videos. It order to solve the above problems, A remote supervision and management method for coal mine gas extraction drilling sites based on AI video analysis has been proposed. This method includes three algorithms: information board detection, OCR recognition, and drill pipe withdrawal analysis. Information board detection is used to detect the current construction phase. PaddleOCR recognition is used to recognize the drilling process and construction information on the information board. The drill pipe withdrawal analysis is used to analyze the number of drill pipes withdrawn during the closing drilling phase, thereby achieving the full process analysis and control of drilling operations. After receiving and starting drilling tasks, the method uses information board detection and PaddleOCR recognition services, and automatically saves construction information based on the identified drilling, closing, and sealing processes and construction parameters. When identifying the start of hole closing, the method enables the drill pipe withdrawal analysis service. When identifying the end of hole closing, the method stops the pipe withdrawal analysis service. The experimental results show that the recognition accuracy of the information board detection algorithm is 96%. The average time of PaddleOCR recognition algorithm is 17.51 ms, which is 25.25 ms lower than EasyOCR and 4.34 ms lower than Chinese OCR recognition algorithms, respectively; The accuracy of the PaddleOCR recognition algorithm has been improved by 5.75% and 2.29% compared to the other two recognition algorithms, respectively. The recall rate of the PaddleOCR recognition algorithm has been improved by 9.77% and 2.36% compared to the other two recognition algorithms, respectively. The pipe withdrawal analysis algorithm can effectively identify the number of pipes withdrawn on site, with an accuracy rate of approximately 95%.

Airway dendritic cells (DCs) are recognized as important factors in the mechanisms of allergic inflammatory diseases. Suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) is involved in regulating the functions of T cells and macrophages, but the roles of SOCS3-expressing DCs in the pathogeneses of allergic inflammatory diseases are still controversial. We compared the effects of adoptively transferred SOCS3-/- and SOCS3+/+ bone marrow-derived DCs (BMDCs) on airway inflammation in ovalbumin (OVA)-sensitized asthmatic mice. Adoptive transfer of mature DCs (lipopolysaccharide [LPS]-induced DCs, DClps) with or without SOCS3 gene expression significantly ameliorated allergic airway inflammation. SOCS3-/- DCs slightly attenuated BMDC-induced immunogenic tolerance. DClps migrated to OVA-sensitized lungs with higher efficiency than immature DCs (DCim). DClps with or without SOCS3 greatly improved lung pathology scores and alleviated airway inflammatory cell infiltration after adoptive transfer into mice; they also increased interleukin-10 (IL-10) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) production and inhibited signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 4 and STAT6 signaling in the lungs after OVA sensitization. In conclusion, the BMDC adoptive transfer-induced immunogenic tolerance in OVA-sensitized mice might not be due to SOCS3 gene depletion. BMDC adoptive transfer may be developed into a new approach that alleviates asthma by modulating the balance between immune tolerance and inflammation.

Inhaled glucocorticoids form the mainstay of asthma treatment because of their anti-inflammatory effects in the lung. Exposure to the air pollutant ozone (O3) exacerbates chronic airways disease. We and others showed that presence of the epithelial-derived surfactant protein-D (SP-D) is important in immunoprotection against inflammatory changes including those induced by O3 inhalation in the airways. SP-D synthesis requires glucocorticoids. We hypothesized here that O3 exposure impairs glucocorticoid responsiveness (including SP-D production) in allergic airway inflammation. The effects of O3 inhalation and glucocorticoid treatment were studied in a mouse model of allergic asthma induced by sensitization and challenge with Aspergillus fumigatus (Af) in vivo. The role of O3 and glucocorticoids in regulation of SP-D expression was investigated in A549 and primary human type II alveolar epithelial cells in vitro. Budesonide inhibited airway hyperreactivity, eosinophil counts in the lung and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and CCL11, IL-13, and IL-23p19 release in the BAL of mice sensitized and challenged with Af (p < 0.05). The inhibitory effects of budesonide were attenuated on inflammatory changes and were completely abolished on airway hyperreactivity after O3 exposure of mice sensitized and challenged with Af. O3 stimulated release of pro-neutrophilic mediators including CCL20 and IL-6 into the airways and impaired the inhibitory effects of budesonide on CCL11, IL-13 and IL-23. O3 also prevented budesonide-induced release of the immunoprotective lung collectin SP-D into the airways of allergen-challenged mice. O3 had a bi-phasic direct effect with early (48 h) activation of SP-D mRNA (sftpd) in vitro. Dexamethasone and budesonide induced sftpd transcription and translation in human type II alveolar epithelial cells in a glucocorticoid receptor and STAT3 (an IL-6 responsive transcription factor) dependent manner. Our study indicates that O3 exposure counteracts the effects of budesonide on airway inflammation, airway hyperreactivity, and SP-D production. We speculate that impairment of SP-D expression may contribute to the acute O3-induced airway inflammation. Asthmatics exposed to high ambient O3 levels may become less responsive to glucocorticoid treatment during acute exacerbations.

Coordinative supramolecular cages with adjustable cavities have found extensive applications in various fields, but the cavity modification strategies for multi‐functional structures are still challenging. Here, we present a tension‐driven self‐expansion strategy for construction of multi‐cavity cages with high structural complexity. Under the regulation of strain‐induced capping ligands, unprecedented heteromorphosis triple‐cavity cages S2/S4 were obtained based on a metallo‐organic ligand (MOL) scaffold. The heteromorphosis cages exhibited significant higher cavity diversity than the homomorphous double‐cavity cages S1/S3; all of the cages were thoroughly characterized through various analytical techniques including (1D and 2D) NMR, ESI‐MS, TWIM‐MS, AFM, and SAXS analyses. Furthermore, the encapsulation of porphyrin in the cavities of these multi‐cavity cages were investigated. This research opens up new possibilities for the architecture of heteromorphosis supramolecular cages via precisely controlled "scaffold‐capping" assembly with preorganized ligands, which could have potential applications in the development of multifunctional structures with higher complexity.
