Two meter QuickBird land use data were prepared for the watershed. The SWAT was calibrated and validated using dally streamflow and monthly water quality （total phosphorus （TP）, total nitrogen （TN）, and suspended solids （SS）） records from 1999 to 2000 and from 2001 to 2002. The average Nash and Sutcliffe model efficiency was 0.63 for the streamflow and the coefficients of determination were 0.88, 0.72, and 0.68 for SS, TN, and TP, respectively. Four BMP scenarios viz. the application of vegetation filter strip and riparian buffer system, the regulation of Universal Soil Loss Equation P factor, and the fertilizing control amount for crops were applied and analyzed.展开更多

A2DS2 score was calculated as follows:age ≥75 years=1,atrial fi brillation=1,dysphagia=2,male sex=1; stroke severity:NIHSS score 0–4=0,5–15=3,≥16=5. The patients were divided into three groups according to A2DS2 score:620 in score 0 group,383 in score 1–9 group,and 276 in score ≥10 group. The three groups were comparatively analyzed. The diagnostic criteria for SAP were as follows:newly emerging lesions or progressively infiltrating lesions on post-stroke chest images combined with more than two of the following clinical symptoms of infection:(1) fever ≥38 °C;(2) newly occurred cough,productive cough or exacerbation of preexisting respiratory tract symptoms with or without chest pain;(3) signs of pulmonary consolidation and/or wet rales;(4) peripheral white blood cell count ≥10×109/L or ≤4×109/L with or without nuclear shift to left,while excluding some diseases with clinical manifestations similar to pneumonia,such as tuberculosis,pulmonary tumors,non-infectious interstitial lung disease,pulmonary edema,pulmonary embolism and atelectasis. The incidence and mortality of SAP as well as the correlation with ischemic stroke site were analyzed in the three groups respectively. Mean± standard deviation was used to represent measurement data with normal distribution and Student's t test was used. The chi-square test was used to calculate the percentage for enumeration data.RESULTS:The incidence of SAP was significantly higher in the A2DS2 score≥10 group than that in the score 1–9 and score 0 groups(71.7% vs. 22.7%,71.7% vs. 3.7%,respectively),whereas the mortality in the score≥10 group was significantly higher than th展开更多

The volume percent of eutectic area and eutectic cell size and also volume percent of different carbides of new steel, which is heat treated under different conditions, are also determined. The results show that the a niobium addition modifies the cast structure of Nb-alloyed hot work tool steel, and reduces the size and volume of eutectic cells, and increases the maximum hardness of the steel.展开更多
