Firstly, By means of the standard Weiss Tabor Carnevale approach and Kruskal’s simplification, we prove the painlevé non integrability of the equation. Secondly, A new breather solution and lump type solution are obtained based on the parameter limit method and Hirota’s bilinear method. Besides, some interaction behavior between lump type solution and N-soliton solutions (N is any positive integer) are studied. We construct the existence theorem of the interaction solution and give the process of calculation and proof. We also give a concrete example to illustrate the effectiveness of the theorem, and some spatial structure figures are displayed to reflect the evolutionary behavior of the interaction solutions with the change of soliton number N and time t.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Upper urinary tract stones are very common in my country,with an incidence of 1%to 5%in the North and an even higher incidence of 5%to 10%in the south.The incidence rate in the south is higher than that in the north,mainly due to the water quality,climate and eating habits of the region.From the perspective of sex,incidence is more likely in males than females.In the high-incidence population,young adults are most prone to stones.Men in the age range of 25 to 40 years are more likely to have stones.AIM To observe the therapeutic effect of minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy(mPCNL)on upper urinary tract stones and its influence on the renal function of patients.METHODS Patients with upper urinary tract stones who were treated in our hospital from February 2017 to March 2018 were selected as research subjects and were divided into the PCNL group and the mPCNL group according to the random number table method.The general conditions of the two groups of patients were observed during the perioperative period,and the differences in stone clearance,pain,renal function indicators and complication rates were compared between the two groups to determine which were statistically significant(P<0.05).RESULTS The operation time of the mPCNL group was longer than that of the PCNL group(t=-34.392,P<0.001),and the intraoperative blood loss of the mPCNL group was more than that of the PCNL group(t=34.090,P<0.001).There was no difference in renal function indices between the two groups of patients before treatment,and there was no difference in the levels of serum creatinine,β2 microglobulin or retinol binding protein in the mPCNL group after treatment.The visual analog scale score of patients in the mPCNL group was lower than that of the PCNL group(t=12.191,P<0.001),and there was no significant difference in the stone clearance rate between the two groups(χ2 value=1.013,P=0.314).There was no significant difference in the incidence of urine extravasation,dyspnea and peripheral organ damage between the two groups(χ2 value=1.053,P=0.305).At 1 mo after treatment and 3 mo after treatment,the quality of life of the mPCNL group was lower than that of the PCNL group,and the Qmax level of the mPCNL group was higher than that of the PCNL group.CONCLUSION mPCNL has a good therapeutic effect on upper urinary tract stones,with a high stone clearance rate without causing kidney damage or increasing the incidence of complications,and thus has good application value.
