基于电子病历的乳腺癌群组与治疗方案可视分析

乳腺癌是当前最常见的恶性肿瘤之一，其电子病历数据可用于挖掘隐含规律，对治疗与预后分析有重要意义。通过与乳腺科医生合作，选择合适的预测模型和可视化方法，搭建了一个基于电子病历的乳腺癌群组和治疗方案可视分析系统。首先，对具有高维属性的病人进行降维和聚类处理，形成病人群组，并采用南丁格尔图、词云和时间轴可视化方法，直观展示病人群组间特征的差异；然后，用支持向量机（support vector machine，SVM）模型预测治疗方案，用平行坐标、矩阵热力图和分类图分别展示属性相关性、训练后的特征权重和预测结果；最后，用真实案例验证了系统在群组分析、治疗方案及病人属性关联分析中的有效性，从而较好地帮助医生选择合适的治疗方案。

疏水缔合悬浮稳定剂的合成及其对固井水泥浆稠度和悬浮稳定性的影响

针对大温差条件下固井水泥浆在固井过程中可能存在的悬浮失稳问题，本研究采用水溶液自由基聚合法来合成具有疏水缔合结构的聚合物作为悬浮稳定剂(PAAN)。通过红外光谱仪、凝胶渗透色谱仪、热重分析仪、高温流变仪、SEM、紫外分光光度计等表征PAAN的结构，发现PAAN随温度升高，形成分子间疏水缔合网状结构，保证了体系的粘度，从而起到有效的悬浮稳定作用。研究发现在40~110 ℃下，0.6%加量的PAAN可以保证固化后的水泥石柱顶部和底部密度差<0.01 g/cm³，且水泥浆稠化时间基本不变，表明PAAN可以保证水泥浆体系具有良好的悬浮稳定效果，且对水泥浆的其他性能无不良影响。

Macroscopic Polarization Change of Mononuclear Valence Tautomeric Cobalt Complexes Through the Use of Enantiopure Ligand

The crystallization of a complex having electron transfer properties in a polar space group can induce the polarization switching of a crystal in a specific direction, which is attractive for the development of sensors, memory devices, and capacitors. Unfortunately, the probability of crystallization in a polar space group is usually low. Noticing that enantiopure compounds crystallize in Sohncke space groups, this paper reports a strategy for the molecular design of non-ferroelectric polarization switching crystals based on the use of intramolecular electron transfer and chirality. In addition, this paper describes the synthesis of a mononuclear valence tautomeric (VT) cobalt complex bearing an enantiopure ligand. The introduction of enantiomer enables the crystallization of the complex in the polar space group (P2₁). The polarization of the crystals along the b-axis direction is not canceled out and the VT transition is accompanied by a change in the macroscopic polarization of the polar crystal. Polarization switching via electron transfer is realized at around room temperature.     

Phosphoric-Acid Retention in High-Temperature Proton-Exchange Membranes

Great efforts have been conducted to develop high temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell (HT-PEMFC) due to its features of enhanced electrocatalyst reactivity, simplified hydrothermal management system and high CO tolerance of catalysts, and remarkable progress has been achieved. However, the easy leaching of phosphoric acid (PA) from the membranes during operation limits its commercial scale-up in complicated environments. This concept here mainly focuses on the recent developments for mitigation of PA loss in PEMs. The probable mechanisms of PA loss are proposed. The approaches to improve PA retention for example via introduction of phosphonic acid by covalent bond, using ion-pairs interaction and siphoning effect, and blending with inorganic nanoparticles are described in detail. Among these strategies, the siphoning effect from the intrinsic microporous PEMs is the most efficient and enables the cell to operate flexibly within a broad temperature range. Therefore, this concept may provide new ideas for the scientists to retain PA, to improve the cell performance and expand the potential applications of PA doped PEMs at elevated humidity and wide temperature range.
