Electro-mechanical braking is a new braking mode of rail vehicles, which has the advantages of compact structure, fast response speed, and high precision. It is a new braking technology that conforms to the development trend of full electrification and full intelligence of rail transit brake devices. Due to the special power demand of the electro-mechanical braking device, the electro-mechanical braking motor has a short-time and intermittent working mechanism and is in the state of blocking during working, resulting in its high-temperature rise. Therefore, it is necessary to calculate the temperature rise of the motor quickly and accurately at the beginning of its design. To address this problem, based on the coupling calculation of the equivalent thermal circuit method and the equivalent magnetic circuit method, a fast temperature rise calculation method of the motor is proposed. Then, using the fast calculation method, the temperature rise of the electro-mechanical brake motor under different working periods and wind speed is calculated. By function fitting the calculated results, the motor temperature rise curve fitting function is obtained, which can accurately predict the temperature rise of the motor under different working conditions. It provides a theoretical basis for the use of electro-mechanical braking motor in different working conditions and also provides a reference for the design of the electro-mechanical braking motor.
The FDA approval of oral semaglutide for type 2 diabetes (2019) and oral octreotide for acromegaly (2020) is evidence that selected niche peptides can be administered orally if formulated with selected intestinal permeation enhancers.

We evaluated the oral octreotide formulation, MYCAPSSA® (Chiasma Pharmaceuticals, Needham, MA, USA). An outline of the current standard of care in acromegaly and the benefits of oral octreotide versus depot injections is provided. We discuss the Transient Permeation Enhancer (TPE®) technology used and detail the safety and efficacy data from animal models and clinical trials.

TPE® is an oily suspension of octreotide that includes a number of excipients that can transiently alter epithelial barrier integrity by opening of intestinal epithelial tight junctions arising from transcellular perturbation. Phase I studies using 20 mg octreotide capsules yielded a relative oral bioavailability of ~0.7% and primary endpoints were achieved in two Phase III studies. The oral octreotidide compared to monthly depot injections.The train sometimes needs to brake frequently on the turnout, although the braking force does not exceed the limit resistance of fastener, cumulative displacement of rail occurs because of the long-term effect of the train brakes, thus, the relationship between the cumulative displacement of rail and the number of train braking actions should be explored. Aiming at the spring bar type III fastener, a 11 physical indoor simulation test was carried out, and an electromagnetic relay device was used to simulate the train load, force, and displacement sensors for data collection. Then a single load no more than the maximum resistance of fastener was applied to the rail end to explore the relationship between the number of loads and the rail cumulative deformation. The rail longitudinal cumulative displacement changes linearly in positive correlation with the number of load actions, and increases faster when the number of load actions is small. As the number of repeated loads increases, the above-mentioned relationship approximately and credibly obeys the power function distribution. Repeatedly applying load no more than the maximum longitudinal resistance of fastener to the rail, the existence of the rail cumulative displacement caused by frequent train braking can be demonstrated, and the relationship curve between the rail displacement and the number of loads can be obtained. Applying the fitting formula, the rail displacement after a specific number of loading times can be attained, and then referring to specific codes, we can determine whether it will exceed the safety limit.Propensity score methods are a widely recommended approach to adjust for confounding and to recover treatment effects with non-experimental, single-level data. This article reviews propensity score weighting estimators for multilevel data in which individuals (level 1) are nested in clusters (level 2) and nonrandomly assigned to either a treatment or control condition at level 1. We address the choice of a weighting strategy (inverse probability weights, trimming, overlap weights, calibration weights) and discuss key issues related to the specification of the propensity score model (fixed-effects model, multilevel random-effects model) in the context of multilevel data. In three simulation studies, we show that estimates based on calibration weights, which prioritize balancing the sample distribution of level-1 and (unmeasured) level-2 covariates, should be preferred under many scenarios (i.e., treatment effect heterogeneity, presence of strong level-2 confounding) and can accommodate covariate-by-cluster interactions. CAY10444 However, when level-1 covariate effects vary strongly across clusters (i.e., under random slopes), and this variation is present in both the treatment and outcome data-generating mechanisms, large cluster sizes are needed to obtain accurate estimates of the treatment effect. We also discuss the implementation of survey weights and present a real-data example that illustrates the different methods.Background Obtaining ventricular volumetry and mass is key to most cardiac MRI but challenged by long multibreath-hold acquisitions. Purpose To assess the image quality and performance of a highly accelerated, free-breathing, two-dimensional cine cardiac MRI sequence incorporating deep learning (DL) reconstruction compared with reference standard balanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP). Materials and Methods A DL algorithm was developed to reconstruct custom 12-fold accelerated bSSFP cardiac MRI cine images from coil sensitivity maps using 15 iterations of separable three-dimensional convolutions and data consistency steps. The model was trained, validated, and internally tested in 10, two, and 10 adult human volunteers, respectively, based on vendor partner-supplied fully sampled bSSFP acquisitions. For prospective external clinical validation, consecutive children and young adults undergoing cardiac MRI from September through December 2019 at a single children's hospital underwent both conventional and highly accelerated short-axis bSSFP cine acquisitions in one MRI examination.
