As a common pollutant, cadmium (Cd) is one of the most toxic heavy metals accumulating in agricultural soils through anthropogenic activities.The uptake of Cd by plants is the main entry route into the human food chain, whilst in plants it elicits oxidative stress by unbalancing the cellular redox LOWER LINK ARM SET status.Medicago sativa was subje
The 0-1 knapsack problem is a typical discrete combinatorial optimization problem with numerous applications.In this paper, a binary multi-scale quantum harmonic oscillator algorithm (BMQHOA) with genetic operator is proposed for solving 0-1 knapsack problem.The framework of BMQHOA is consisted of three nested phases including energy level stabliza
Abstract Backward wave oscillators represent a class of tunable sources of electromagnetic radiation that do not require a resonant cavity to satisfy the oscillation condition.In the optical regime, the Essential Amino Acids Backward Wave Optical Parametric Oscillator (BWOPO) relies on a a nonlinear interaction to provide the positive feedback requ
Phased mission systems are very Tick Dips common in engineering practices.It has been a challenging task to effectively estimate the reliability of phased mission systems.In the paper, a new reliability synthesis method for phased mission systems is proposed for addressing the challenge.Based on the existed reliability block diagram, the hierarchic
To examine the effect of de-escalation of P2Y12 inhibitor in dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and bleeding complications after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in Taiwanese patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Patients who had received PCI during hospitalization for AMI (between
