Normothermic regional perfusion mobile teams in controlled donation after circulatory death pathway: Evidence and peculiarities

To facilitate the implementation of controlled donation after circulatory death(cDCD)programs even in hospitals not equipped with a local Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation(ECMO)team(Spokes),some countries and Italian Regions have launched a local cDCD network with a ECMO mobile team who move from Hub hospitals to Spokes for normothermic regional perfusion(NRP)implantation in the setting of a cDCD pathway.While ECMO teams have been clearly defined by the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization,regarding composition,responsibilities and training programs,no clear,widely accepted indications are to date available for NRP teams.Although existing NRP mobile networks were developed due to the urgent need to increase the number of cDCDs,there is now the necessity for transplantation medicine to identify the peculiarities and responsibility of a NRP team for all those centers launching a cDCD pathway.Thus,in the present manuscript we summarized the character-istics of an ECMO mobile team,highlighting similarities and differences with the NRP mobile team.We also assessed existing evidence on NRP teams with the goal of identifying the characteristic and essential features of an NRP mobile team for a cDCD program,especially for those centers who are starting the program.Differences were identified between the mobile ECMO team and NRP mobile team.The common essential feature for both mobile teams is high skills and experience to reduce complications and,in the case of cDCD,to reduce the total warm ischemic time.Dedicated training programs should be developed for the launch of de novo NRP teams.

Efficacy of continuous arterial perfusion chemotherapy combined with transarterial chemoembolization regional arterial thermal perfusion in the treatment of pancreatic cancer with liver metastases

Background:The aim of the study was to investigate the efficacy of continuous transcatheter arterial infusion chemotherapy combined with transarterial chemoembolization(TACE)for the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer with liver metastasis.Methods:Sixty patients with advanced pancreatic cancer and liver metastases were enrolled in this study.In the treatment group,31patients underwent continuous transcatheter arterial infusion chemotherapy combined with TACE regional arterial thermal perfusion,whereas 29 patients included in the control group received intravenous chemotherapy with gemcitabine and S-1.All patients received maintenance chemotherapy with S-1 after 4 cycles of the study regimen.Treatment efficacy,quality of life,survival,and toxicity were evaluated.Results:Efficacy was better in the treatment group than in the control group,as reflected by the objective remission,partial remission,and disease progression rates(all P<0.05).The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group and Numerical Rating Scale pain scores were also higher in the treatment group(both P<0.05).In survival analysis,the 1-year overall survival rates in the treatment and control groups were64.516%and 10.345%,respectively,whereas the median overall survival times were 16 and 6 months,respectively(both P<0.05).The6-month progression-free survival rates in the treatment and control groups were 77.419%and 13.790%,respectively,and the median progression-free survival times were 12 and 3 months,respectively(both P<0.05).The rates of hematological and nonhematological toxicological adverse effects were also lower in the treatment group(both P<0.05).Although the rate of liver dysfunction was higher in the treatment group,this finding had no adverse effects on prognosis.Conclusions:Continuous transcatheter arterial infusion chemotherapy combined with TACE regional arterial perfusion chemotherapy resulted in better efficacy and safety outcomes in patients with pancreatic cancer and liver metastasis,suggesting its utility as a reference method for the clinical treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer.

Effects of kallikrein gene transfer on penumbral microvascular proliferation and on regional cerebral blood flow following cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury

BACKGROUND： Recent findings have demonstrated that the kallikrein-kinin system （KKS） participates in the pathological process of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury. Kallikrein gene transfer exhibits neural protective effects following cerebral infarction. OBJECTIVE： To observe the effects of kallikrein gene transfer on vascular proliferation in the peripheral infarct focus and on regional cerebral blood flow （rCBF） following cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING： The completely randomized, controlled experiment was performed at the Lin Baixin Laboratory Center, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sun University between September 2007 and April 2008. MATERIALS： pUCI9-HTK plasmid was constructed and maintained in the Laboratory for Neurology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, China. Mouse anti-human kallikrein 1 monoclonal antibody was purchased from R＆D Systems, USA. METHODS Ninety healthy, male, Sprague Dawley rats were used. Middle cerebral artery occlusion （MCAO） was established in all rats to induce cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury. Following MCAO establishment, all rats were randomly divided into three groups （n = 30）： blank control, saline, and pAdCMV-HTK. The saline and pAdCMV-HTK groups were stereotactically micro-injected with 5μL of physiological saline or with pAdCMV-HTK [multiplicity of infection （MOI） = 20], respectively, into the ischemic penumbra. In the blank control group, only sham injection was performed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES： At 12, 24, and 72 hours after treatment, cerebral infarction volume was measured by 2, 3, 5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride （TTC） staining. Exogenous HTK expression, as well as regional vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） expression, was detected by immunohistochemistry. rCBF was examined by 14C-iodoantipyrine micro tracing. In addition, neurological severity score （NSS） was performed. Higher scores indicated more severe neurological deficits. RESULTS： NSS results demonstrated that compared with the saline and the blank control groups, the pAdCMV-HTK group exhibited lower NSSs 24 hours after pAdCMV-HTK injection （P 〈 0.05）. The NSSs were further decreased after 72 hours （P 〈 0.01）. Cerebral infarction volume at 24 hours, and in particular at 72 hours after treatment, was significantly reduced in the pAdCMV-HTK group compared with the blank control and saline groups （P 〈 0.05）. The rCBF in the area surrounding the infarction lesion was slightly decreased in all groups compared with the contralateral area. At 24 and 72 hours following treatment, the rCBF in the peripheral infarction lesion was significantly elevated in the pAdCMV-HTK group compared with the blank control and saline groups （P 〈 0.05）. Immunohistochemistry results revealed that VEGF-positive cells were primarily found in the cortex and in some white matter surrounding the cerebral infarction lesion. In addition, the expression of VEGF in the pAdCMV-HTK group was significantly higher compared with that in the blank control and saline groups at 12, 24, and 72 hours following treatment （P 〈 0.05）. CONCLUSION： Following cerebral ischemia/reperfusion, kallikrein gene transfer can promote vascular proliferation in the brain tissue surrounding the infarction lesion, improve rCBF, and reduce infarction volume, thereby exhibiting protective effects to attenuate neurological deficits.

Isolated hepatic perfusion: a regional therapy for liver cancer

BACKGROUND: Many treatments have been proposed for non-resectable primary or secondary hepatic cancer but the results have been disappointing. Isolated hepatic perfusion (IHP) was attempted five decades ago but it has been ac- cepted recently after spectacular tumour responses were ob- tained by several phase trials. DATA SOURCES: An English-language literature search using MEDLINE (2003), Index Medicus (2003) and biblio- graphic reviews of books and review articles. IHP and its history and recent clinical application. RESULTS: IHP offers unique pharmacokinetic advantages for locoregional chemotherapy and biotherapy. Surgical isolation of the liver and percutaneous techniques using bal- loon occlusion catheters are reliable and safe. They appear to have significant efficacy even in patients with advanced tumor burden or those with tumors refractory to other types of therapy. CONCLUSION: IHP which has been developed in recent years is becoming a promising strategy for the treatment of unresectable liver cancer.

Routine utilization of machine perfusion in liver transplantation:Ready for prime time?

The last decade has been notable for increasing high-quality research and dramatic improvement in outcomes with dynamic liver preservation.Robust evidence from numerous randomized controlled trials has been pooled by meta-analyses,providing the highest available evidence on the protective effect of machine perfusion(MP)over static cold storage in liver transplantation(LT).Based on a protective effect with less complications and improved graft survival,the field has seen a paradigm shift in organ preservation.This editorial focuses on the role of MP in LT and how it could become the new“gold standard”.Strong collaborative efforts are needed to explore its effects on long-term outcomes.

Effect of systemic intravenous chemotherapy combined with regional arterial perfusion chemoembolization on the malignancy of locally advanced gastric cancer

Objective:To study the effect of systemic intravenous chemotherapy combined with regional arterial perfusion chemoembolization on the malignancy of locally advanced gastric cancer. Methods:A total of 90 patients with primary gastric cancer who received treatment in Tianyou Hospital Affiliated to Wuhan University of Science & Technology between January 2014 and May 2016 were collected and divided into control group and observation group according to the random number table method, 45 cases in each group. The control group of patients received routine systemic intravenous chemotherapy + surgical treatment, and the observation group of patients received systemic intravenous chemotherapy combined with local arterial perfusion chemoembolization + surgical treatment. Levels of tumor markers and angiogenesis factors in serum as well as the expression of oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes in gastric cancer tissue were compared between the two groups of patients before and after chemotherapy.Results:Before chemotherapy, the levels of tumor markers and angiogenesis factors in serum as well as the expression of oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes in gastric cancer tissue were not significantly different between the two groups of patients;after chemotherapy, serum CEA, CA724, CA242, AFP, VEGF, Ang-2, COX2 and PD-ECGF levels of observation group were lower than those of control group, andiASPP, p130Cas, ERBB2 and C-myc mRNA expression in gastric cancer tissue were lower than those of control group while GKN1, p16, PTEN, TSPYL5 and merlin mRNA expression in gastric cancer tissue were higher than those of control group.Conclusions: Preoperative systemic intravenous chemotherapy combined with regional arterial perfusion chemoembolization can effectively reduce the malignancy of locally advanced gastric cancer and provide favorable conditions for the operation.

Machine perfusion and the prevention of ischemic type biliary lesions following liver transplant:What is the evidence?

The widespread uptake of different machine perfusion(MP)strategies for liver transplant has been driven by an effort to minimize graft injury.Damage to the cholangiocytes during the liver donation,preservation,or early posttransplant period may result in stricturing of the biliary tree and inadequate biliary drainage.This problem continues to trouble clinicians,and may have catastrophic consequences for the graft and patient.Ischemic injury,as a result of compromised hepatic artery flow,is a well-known cause of biliary strictures,sepsis,and graft failure.However,very similar lesions can appear with a patent hepatic artery and these are known as ischemic type biliary lesions(ITBL)that are attributed to microcirculatory dysfunction rather than main hepatic arterial compromise.Both the warm and cold ischemic period duration appear to influence the onset of ITBL.All of the commonly used MP techniques deliver oxygen to the graft cells,and therefore may minimize the cholangiocyte injury and subsequently reduce the incidence of ITBL.As clinical experience and published evidence grows for these modalities,the impact they have on ITBL rates is important to consider.In this review,the evidence for the three commonly used MP strategies(abdominal normothermic regional perfusion[A-NRP],hypothermic oxygenated perfusion[HOPE],and normothermic machine perfusion[NMP])for ITBL prevention has been critically reviewed.Inconsistencies with ITBL definitions used in trials,coupled with variations in techniques of MP,make interpretation challenging.Overall,the evidence suggests that both HOPE and A-NRP prevent ITBL in donated after circulatory death grafts compared to cold storage.The evidence for ITBL prevention in donor after brain death grafts with any MP technique is weak.

Hemoperfusion and continuous veno-venous hemodiafiltration for eliminating chlorfenapyr in poisoning patients

Chlorfenapyr is a liposoluble insecticide belonging to the pyrrole family.Chlorfenapyr is activated when the N-ethoxymethyl side chain breaks,forming a toxic metabolite,which uncouples oxidative phosphorylation in the mitochondria,inhibits the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP),and leads to the death of cells and targe organisms.[1] Symptoms of chlorfenapyr poisoning in patients are mild and atypical in the early stage,especially in patients receiving low dose exposure;however,such cases are rare and may be ignored by physicians,often leading to delayed treatment.[2,3].

New strategy for distal limb perfusion in veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation treatment: application of continuous renal replacement therapy tubing

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)is a technology that can temporarily take over the functions of the heart and lungs.Acute kidney injury is a common issue in patients receiving ECMO treatment,with reported incidence rates ranging from 70%to 85%.[1]To maintain the balance of fluids and electrolytes in patients,continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT)is frequently employed.

Early peripheral perfusion index predicts 28-day outcome in patients with septic shock

BACKGROUND:To investigate the prognostic value of the peripheral perfusion index(PPI)in patients with septic shock.METHODS:This prospective cohort study,conducted at the emergency intensive care unit of Peking University People's Hospital,recruited 200 patients with septic shock between January 2023 and August 2023.These patients were divided into survival(n=84)and death(n=116)groups based on 28-day outcomes.Clinical evaluations included laboratory tests and clinical scores,with lactate and PPI values assessed upon admission to the emergency room and at 6 h and 12 h after admission.Risk factors associated with mortality were analyzed using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses.Receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curve was used to assess predictive performance.Mortality rates were compared,and Kaplan-Meier survival plots were created.RESULTS:Compared to the survival group,patients in the death group were older and had more severe liver damage and coagulation dysfunction,necessitating higher norepinephrine doses and increased fl uid replacement.Higher lactate levels and lower PPI levels at 0 h,6 h,and 12 h were observed in the death group.Multivariate Cox regression identifi ed prolonged prothrombin time(PT),decreased 6-h PPI and 12-h PPI as independent risk factors for death.The area under the curves for 6-h PPI and 12-h PPI were 0.802(95%CI 0.742-0.863,P<0.001)and 0.945(95%CI 0.915-0.974,P<0.001),respectively,which were superior to Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS),Sequential Organ Failure Assessment(SOFA)scores(0.864 and 0.928).Cumulative mortality in the low PPI groups at 6 h and 12 h was signifi cantly higher than in the high PPI groups(6-h PPI:77.52%vs.22.54%;12-h PPI:92.04%vs.13.79%,P<0.001).CONCLUSION:PPI may have value in predicting 28-day mortality in patients with septic shock.

Artificial intelligence software for assessing brain ischemic penumbra/core infarction on computed tomography perfusion:A real-world accuracy study

BACKGROUND With the increasingly extensive application of artificial intelligence(AI)in medical systems,the accuracy of AI in medical diagnosis in the real world deserves attention and objective evaluation.AIM To investigate the accuracy of AI diagnostic software(Shukun)in assessing ischemic penumbra/core infarction in acute ischemic stroke patients due to large vessel occlusion.METHODS From November 2021 to March 2022,consecutive acute stroke patients with large vessel occlusion who underwent mechanical thrombectomy(MT)post-Shukun AI penumbra assessment were included.Computed tomography angiography(CTA)and perfusion exams were analyzed by AI,reviewed by senior neurointerventional experts.In the case of divergences among the three experts,discussions were held to reach a final conclusion.When the results of AI were inconsistent with the neurointerventional experts’diagnosis,the diagnosis by AI was considered inaccurate.RESULTS A total of 22 patients were included in the study.The vascular recanalization rate was 90.9%,and 63.6%of patients had modified Rankin scale scores of 0-2 at the 3-month follow-up.The computed tomography(CT)perfusion diagnosis by Shukun(AI)was confirmed to be invalid in 3 patients(inaccuracy rate:13.6%).CONCLUSION AI(Shukun)has limits in assessing ischemic penumbra.Integrating clinical and imaging data(CT,CTA,and even magnetic resonance imaging)is crucial for MT decision-making.

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome: Outpatient Pain Management in the Chronic Setting: A Case Report

Background: Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), previously known as reflex sympathetic dystrophy and causalgia, is a neuropathic pain condition that usually develops after an injury to an extremity. CRPS can be a debilitating condition with high levels of pain and reduced function. Aim: This case report aims to discuss the multimodal approach in the management of a patient who presented with ongoing poorly controlled pain secondary to CRPS from an injury that happened years prior. Case Presentation: A 45-year-old female was involved in a motor vehicle accident where her right leg was injured. She underwent several surgeries and developed CRPS that significantly reduced her mobility and quality of life. She presented to the pain clinic years after her initial injury and a multimodal regimen was started for her resulting in significantly improved function. Conclusion: CRPS can be a severely debilitating condition. While early diagnosis and management are important, ongoing management in the outpatient chronic pain setting is important in maintaining a good level of function.

Matched pair analysis of the effect of longer hypothermic machine perfusion time on kidney transplant outcomes

BACKGROUND Hypothermic machine perfusion(HMP)has demonstrated benefits in terms of early kidney transplant function compared to static cold storage.While longer preservation times have shown detrimental effects,a previous paired study indicated that longer pump times(the second kidney in a pair)might lead to improved outcomes.AIM To revisit the prior paired study's somewhat unexpected results by reviewing our program's experience.METHODS A total of 61 pairs of transplant recipients who received kidneys from the same donor(2012-2021)were analyzed.Patients were divided into two groups depending on whether they were transplanted first(K1)or second(K2).Therefore,the patients in each pair had identical donor characteristics,except for time on the pump.Statistical analyses included Kaplan-Meyer analysis and paired tests,including McNemar's test,student's paired t-test,or Wilcoxon's test,as appropriate.RESULTS The two groups of recipients had similar demographics(age,body mass index,diabetes,time on dialysis,sensit-ization and retransplants).Cold ischemic times for K1 and K2 were 8.9(95%CI:7.9,9.8)and 14.7 hours(13.7,15.8)(P<0.0001),respectively.Overall,K2 had a higher rate of freedom from biopsy-proven acute rejection at 1 year(P=0.015).Delayed graft function was less common in K2,12/61(20%)than in K1,20/61(33%)(P=0.046).Finally,K2 showed a higher graft survival than K1(P=0.023).CONCLUSION Our results agree with a previous study that suggested possible advantages to longer pump times.Both studies should encourage further research into HMP's potential anti-inflammatory effect.

Addressing inclusion,innovation,and sustainability challenges through the lens of economic geography:Introducing the hierarchical regional innovation system

The world is facing dramatic challenges related to environmental sustainability at an accelerating pace.In this context,the field of economic geography(EG)has been playing an important role in understanding both the socioeconomic and technological dimensions of these challenges,as it deals with a variety of complementary notions and perspectives.Departing from this lens,our aim is to explore a conceptual framework that can help us to understand environmental changes relating to multi-dimensional territorial development,notably in eco-nomic contexts where inequality is high,and stratification based on hierarchies regulate social and economic life.Based on the territory concept,we propose the original notion of a hierarchical regional innovation system(HRIS)that emphasises the pervasive role of hierarchies(powers)in regional innovation systems and illustrate its value with evidence and case studies from extant literature on sustainability transitions.The HRIS can help us understand and promote development paths considering the contribution of inclusive eco-innovations(another original conceptual amalgam).Through some empirical cases from other studies in low-carbon transitions,we show the application of the HRIS(and inclusive eco-innovation)framework.In conclusion,we provide incen-tives to explore new regional innovation systems,alongside the HRIS,adapted to different regions worldwide and centred on the inclusiveness of people and places.

Infectious ENT Emergencies: A One-Year Experience at the ENT Department of Mamou Regional Hospital

Introduction: ENT infectious emergencies encompass all infectious pathologies affecting the ear, nose, sinuses, throat, and neck. A good understanding of these emergencies is essential for organizing appropriate care. In Guinea, few studies have described ENT infectious pathologies in rural areas. Objective: To study ENT infectious emergencies in the Otorhinolaryngology department of the Mamou Regional Hospital. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective and prospective descriptive study, conducted from August 1, 2021, to July 31, 2022. All patients admitted to the ENT department of the Mamou Regional Hospital for an infectious emergency were included. Results: Among the 1854 recorded consultations, 261 cases involved ENT infectious emergencies, representing a prevalence of 14.07%. The most represented age group was 0 to 10 years (31.03%), with a majority of female patients (59%) and a predominantly urban origin (81.61%). Students accounted for 32.18% of the cases. The main reasons for consultation were odynophagia/dysphagia (32.42%) and otalgia (22.94%). The primary etiologies were tonsillitis (28.73%) and otitis (27.20%). Treatments administered included probabilistic antibiotic therapy (38.80%), analgesics (32.03%), and corticosteroid therapy (10.47%). The outcome was favorable in 98.85% of cases, with only 0.38% lost to follow-up. Conclusion: The results of our study confirm the frequency of ENT infectious pathologies. Their management requires joint actions for population awareness, staff training, and services equipment, particularly in rural areas.

External Otitis: Epidemiological, Clinical, Etiological, and Therapeutic Aspects at the Oto-Rhino-Laryngology Department of Mamou Regional Hospital

Introduction: External otitis (OE) is an acute or chronic inflammation or infection of the external ear resulting from an imbalance in the external auditory canal secondary to microtrauma, maceration, eczema, or a foreign body in the external auditory canal. Objective: To study cases of external otitis at the Mamou Regional Hospital. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective descriptive study conducted over a period of six (6) months from July 1st to December 31st, 2016. It included all patients admitted to the ENT department of the Mamou Regional Hospital. Results: During the study period, 712 patients were admitted to the department for various pathologies, of which 103 met our selection criteria, representing a frequency of 14.46%. The mean age of the patients was 33.74 years with a range of 1 to 90 years. Males predominated in the sample, accounting for 59.22%. The vast majority of patients resided in urban areas, constituting 61.17% of the sample. In our study, all patients consulted for otalgia (100%), and over half (53.39%) for hypoacusis. We formally identified rhinitis in 66.66% of cases, while diabetes was found in only 4 patients (11.11%). Otomycosis was the most commonly identified condition (53.39%), followed by furuncles (33.98%). Ear drops containing antibiotics were administered to all patients, although 66.60% received antibiotic therapy. Conclusion: External otitis is a relatively common condition, particularly among children and the elderly. Diagnosis can be made based on pain upon traction of the pinna and pressure on the tragus.

Does digitalization mitigate regional inequalities?Evidence from China

Regional inequality significantly influences sustainable development and human well-being.In China,there exists pronounced regional disparities in economic and digital advancements;however,scant research delves into the interplay between them.By analyzing the economic development and digitalization gaps at regional and city levels in China,extending the original Cobb-Douglas production function,this study aims to evaluate the impact of digitalization on China's regional inequality using seemingly unrelated regression.The results indicate a greater emphasis on digital inequality compared to economic disparity,with variable coefficients of 0.59 for GDP per capita and 0.92 for the digitalization index over the past four years.However,GDP per capita demonstrates higher spatial concentration than digitalization.Notably,both disparities have shown a gradual reduction in recent years.The southeastern region of the Hu Huanyong Line exhibits superior levels and rates of economic and digital advancement in contrast to the northwestern region.While digitalization propels economic growth,it yields a nuanced impact on achieving balanced regional development,encompassing both positive and negative facets.Our study highlights that the marginal utility of advancing digitalization is more pronounced in less developed regions,but only if the government invests in the digital infrastructure and education in these areas.This study's methodology can be utilized for subsequent research,and our findings hold the potential to the government's regional investment and policy-making.

Construction and Application of a Regional Kilometer-Scale Carbon Source and Sink Assimilation Inversion System(CCMVS-R)

CO_(2)is one of the most important greenhouse gases(GHGs)in the earth’s atmosphere.Since the industrial era,anthropogenic activities have emitted excessive quantities of GHGs into the atmosphere,resulting in climate warming since the 1950s and leading to an increased frequency of extreme weather and climate events.In 2020,China committed to striving for carbon neutrality by 2060.This commitment and China’s consequent actions will result in significant changes in global and regional anthropogenic carbon emissions and therefore require timely,comprehensive,and objective monitoring and verification support(MVS)systems.The MVS approach relies on the top-down assimilation and inversion of atmospheric CO_(2)concentrations,as recommended by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC)Inventory Guidelines in 2019.However,the regional high-resolution assimilation and inversion method is still in its initial stage of development.Here,we have constructed an inverse system for carbon sources and sinks at the kilometer level by coupling proper orthogonal decomposition(POD)with four-dimensional variational(4DVar)data assimilation based on the weather research and forecasting-greenhouse gas(WRF-GHG)model.Our China Carbon Monito ring and Verification Support at the Regional level(CCMVS-R)system can continuously assimilate information on atmospheric CO_(2)and other related information and realize the inversion of regional and local anthropogenic carbon emissions and natural terrestrial ecosystem carbon exchange.Atmospheric CO_(2)data were collected from six ground-based monito ring sites in Shanxi Province,China to verify the inversion effect of regio nal anthropogenic carbon emissions by setting ideal and real experiments using a two-layer nesting method(at 27 and 9 km).The uncertainty of the simulated atmospheric CO_(2)decreased significantly,with a root-mean-square error of CO_(2)concentration values between the ideal value and the simulated after assimilation was close to 0.The total anthropogenic carbon emissions in Shanxi Province in 2019 from the assimilated inversions were approximately 28.6%(17%-38%)higher than the mean of five emission inventories using the bottomup method,showing that the top-down CCMVS-R system can obtain more comprehensive information on anthropogenic carbon emissions.
