The design of compact hyperspectral cameras with high ground resolution and large field of view (FOV) is a challenging problem in the field of remote sensing. In this paper, the time-delayed integration (TDI) of the digital domain is applied to solve the issue of insufficient light energy brought by high spatial resolution, and a hyperspectral camera with linear variable filters suitable for digital domain TDI technology is further designed. The camera has a wavelength range of 450-950 nm, with an average spectral resolution of 10.2 nm. The paper also analyzed the effects of digital domain TDI on the signal-noise ratio (SNR) and the spectral resolution. During its working in orbits, we have obtained high-SNR images with a swath width of 150 km, and a ground sample distance (GSD) of 10 m @ 500 km. The design of the hyperspectral camera has an improved spatial resolution while reducing the cost.Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a disease with important clinical and socio-economic ramifications. Malnutrition and severe alteration of the protein components of the body (protein disarrangements), common conditions in CHF patients, are independent correlates of heart dysfunction, disease progression, and mortality. Autophagy, a prominent occurrence in the heart of patients with advanced CHF, is a self-digestive process that prolongs myocardial cell lifespan by the removal of cytosolic components, such as aging organelles and proteins, and recycles the constituent elements for new protein synthesis. However, in specific conditions, excessive activation of autophagy can lead to the destruction of molecules and organelles essential to cell survival, ultimately leading to organ failure and patient death. In this review, we aim to describe the experimental and clinical evidence supporting a pathophysiological role of nutrition and autophagy in the progression of CHF. The understanding of the mechanisms underlying the interplay between nutrition and autophagy may have important clinical implications by providing molecular targets for innovative therapeutic strategies in CHF patients.This article reviews literature on manufacturing enterprise performance (MEP) and environmental sustainability (ES) to identify their commonalities and distinguishing factors; it is expected to help determine gaps and paths for future research. Topics are classified based on patterns in the citation networks of 7308 and 6275 MEP and ES articles, respectively. Additionally, a semantic linkage was computed to reveal overlap in vocabulary between the two topics. A total of 17 and 21 topics were found in MEP and ES, respectively, where the main shared theme was the green supply chain. However, research on biofuels is unique to ES, and privatization is unique to MEP, among others. The concept of "performance" has also been covered by MEP and ES researchers. This article provides an objective snapshot of current research trends based on quantitative data, and the findings may be used to guide future research directions at the intersection of MEP and ES.The aircraft electro-thermal anti-icing system that can guarantee flight safety may be affected by periodic heating and cyclic aerodynamic force during long-term flight missions, which seems to be a potential threat to ice protection. This paper aims to investigate the impacts of thermal and mechanical cycles on heating elements of the electro-thermal anti-icing system. Specimens were manufactured with CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced polymer) laminated composite, glass fiber prepreg and copper screen, in which sprayable metal film (SMF) was embedded as the heating element. The study focuses on electric resistance variation of SMF and functional fatigue life under the cycling load. Thermal cycling tests were carried out in an insulated chamber where the specimens were heated up to 80 °C and then cooled down to -55 °C for 1000 cycles. Mechanical cycling tests were conducted on a fatigue testing machine where the specimens were imposed on tension-compression loading for 106 cycles. Results showed that the electric resistance of SMF increased with the number of loading cycles. The resistance was increased by 20% and the heating power was decreased by 16.67% after 1000 thermal cycles. During the mechanical cycling tests, it was found that the heating element was destructed before the structural failure, which indicated that the fatigue life of function was lower than that of the structure.Housing quality, stability, and affordability have a direct relationship to socioemotional and physical health. Both city planning and public health have long recognized the role of housing in health, but the complexity of this relationship in regard to infant and maternal health is less understood. Focusing on literature specifically relevant to U.S. metropolitan areas, I conduct a multidisciplinary literature review to understand the influence of housing factors and interventions that impact infant and maternal health. https://www.selleckchem.com/ALK.html The paper seeks to achieve three primary goals. First, to identify the primary "pathways" by which housing influences infant and maternal health. Second, the review focuses on the role and influence of historical housing discrimination on maternal health outcomes. Third, the review identifies emergent practice-based housing interventions in planning and public health practice to support infant and maternal health. The literature suggests that the impact of housing on infant health is complex, multifaceted, and intergenerational. Historical housing discrimination also directly impacts contemporary infant and maternal health outcomes. Policy interventions to support infant health through housing are just emerging but demonstrate promising outcomes. Structural barriers to housing affordability in the United States will require new resources to foster greater collaboration between the housing and the health sectors.In order to determine whether Taiwanese vegetarian diets reduce the risks of depression, we analyzed data from the Tzu Chi Vegetarian Study (TCVS), which is a prospective cohort study following 12,062 participants from the Buddhist Tzu Chi Foundation of Taiwan since 2005. The cohort was prospectively followed by linking to the National Health Institute Research Database (NHIRD) of Taiwan and hazard ratios of depression between vegetarian and non-vegetarian groups were calculated by Cox proportional hazards regression. We assessed dietary intake using a detailed food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). Incident depression was ascertained through linkage to NHIRD which had claim records with the International Classification of Diseases, and a total of 3571 vegetarians and 7006 non-vegetarians were included in this analysis. Compared with non-vegetarians, the vegetarian group had a lower incidence of depressive disorders (2.37 vs. 3.21 per 10,000 person-years; adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 0.70; 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.
