Methods: Ninety-seven MACP patients admitted to our hospital from September 2021 to September 2023 were randomly selected and were divided into Group A (control group, 46 cases, rehabilitation training treatment) and Group B (observation group, 51 cases, extracorporeal shock wave with rehabilitation training treatment), and outcomes of the two groups were compared. Results: The treatment efficiency, post-treatment clinical indexes (upper and lower limb function scores, activities of daily living (ADL) scores, visual analog scale (VAS) scores), and short-form 36 (SF-36) scores of Group B were better than those of Group A (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Combined extracorporeal shock wave and rehabilitation training treatment for MACP patients improved their limb function, daily activities, quality of life, and reduced pain.展开更多

Methods: 60 patients with Distal Radioulnar Joint (DRUJ) injury were divided into observation group and control group according to random number method. 30 cases were included in each of the two groups.Before and after treatment in patients with Visual Analogue Scale (Visual Analogue Scale, VAS) score, forearm pronation and supination electromyographic activity, methods of electric integral value (integral electromyogram, iEMG) and Wrist in patients with self assessment Scale (Patient - Rated Wrist Evaluation, PRWE) score evaluation, comparison, and the clinical observation on diagnosis of disease and curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine standard (assessment process by blind method).Results: compared with the two groups before and after treatment, VAS score decreased, forearm pronation and postpronation activity increased, iEMG value increased, and PRWE scale score decreased (all P < 0.05), and the curative effect of the treatment group was better than that of the control group (P < 0.05). The total effective rate of the treatment group [93.3% (28/30)] was higher than that of the control group [50%(15/30), P < 0.05].Conclusion: the combined exercise training of muscle and bone setting technique can effectively alleviate the pain of patients with radial ulnar joint injury, improve the rotation of the forearm, increase the recruitment of the anterior rotatory muscle, and improve the wrist function of patients, and the effect is better than if combined with forearm support fixation.展开更多

In block transmission, a unique word(UW) can be used as a cyclic prefix and reference signal. However, the DCS-based channel estimation requires diversity sequences instead of UW. In this paper, we proposed a novel method that employs a training sequence(TS) whose duration time is slightly longer than the maximum delay spread time. Based on proposed TS, the DCS approach perform perfectly in multipath channel estimation. Meanwhile, a cyclic prefix construct could be formed, which reduces the complexity of the frequency domain equalization(FDE) directly. Simulation results demonstrate that, by using the method of simultaneous orthogonal matching pursuit(SOMP), the required channel overhead has been reduced thanks to the proposed TS.展开更多

Our distinct training approach caters to multiple users and base stations, enabling independent and individualized local training. This ensures the more secure processing of data and algorithms, different from the commonly adopted joint training method. To maintain comparable performance with joint training, we present two distinct training methods: separate training decoder and separate training encoder. It’s noteworthy that conducting separate training for the encoder can pose additional challenges, due to its responsibility in acquiring a compressed representation of underlying data features. This complexity makes accommodating multiple pre-trained decoders for just one encoder a demanding task. To overcome this, we design an adaptation layer architecture that effectively minimizes performance losses. Moreover, the flexible training strategy empowers users and base stations to seamlessly incorporate distinct encoder and decoder structures into the system, significantly amplifying the system’s scalability. .展开更多

An elastoplastic 3D dynamic finite difference model was established by using the FLAC3D numerical soft- ware. By fully considering the joints, the A-B-K segments and the soft stratum, the dynamic response of the shield tunnel buried in thick, soft soil under the vibrating load induced by a metro train was numerically simulated. The simulation result, for which the joint was considered, was compared with the result when the joint was not considered. The results show that an operating metro train induces a significant dynamic response in the structure of the lining of the shield tunnel and its soft foundation. The severe dynamic response zones of the lining structure are largely distributed in the range of the lower half of the segment-ring and the nearer to the bottom of the segment-ring, the more severe the response. Of two horizontally symmetric, corresponding places on the segment lining, the one near the joint is more severe in its dynamic response than that of the one far from the joint; the nearer the zone of the foundation soil to the lower half of the seg- ment-ring, the more severe the dynamic response. The maximum shear strain of the foundation soil takes place near the joint between two normal segments at the bottom. The dynamic response influenced by joints is more severe than the response not influenced by joints, showing that the non-joint assumption is somewhat impractical.展开更多
