Electricity prices rise as cold spell and wind drought bite
Electricity costs are climbing again after a stretch of cold weather coincided with a wind power drought, forcing expensive gas plants to fill the gap.

With the rapid pace of industrialization and the increasing intensity of human activities, the global climate change and energy crisis have reached a heightened level of severity. Consequently, achieving an early peak in carbon emissions has become an imperative in addressing this pressing issue. Particularly, coastal provinces, known for their developed economies, high population density, and substantial building energy consumption... Читать дальше...

High-throughput technologies have generated vast amounts of omic data. It is a consensus that the integration of diverse omics sources improves predictive models and biomarker discovery. However, managing multiple omics data poses challenges such as data heterogeneity, noise, high-dimensionality and missing data, especially in block-wise patterns. This study addresses the challenges of high dimensionality and block-wise missing data through... Читать дальше...

Digital technologies can bring about fundamental changes in corporate processes, which may result in a shift from process innovation to digital process innovation. However, owing to resource constraints and various stakeholders, digital process implementation is extremely challenging for firms. Based on stakeholder theory, this study explores whether and how stakeholder pressure for digitalization can facilitate corporate digital process innovation and unravels... Читать дальше...

ObjectiveThe aim was to develop a predictive tool for anticipating postpartum endometritis occurrences and to devise strategies for prevention and control.
MethodsEmploying a retrospective approach, the baseline data of 200 women diagnosed with postpartum endometritis in a tertiary maternity hospital in Zhejiang Province, spanning from February 2020 to September 2022, was examined. Simultaneously, the baseline data of 1,000 women... Читать дальше...

ObjectiveThis study examines how maintaining a straight leading arm affects the muscle strength balance between the biceps and triceps in golfers and its influence on golf performance.
MethodsWe recruited 20 male participants aged 18–45, including 10 golfers and 10 non-golfers. The participants’ average age was 25.6±6.2 years, height 1.8±0.07 m, and weight 75.6±10.2 kg. We measured isometric and isokinetic muscle strength using the Primus RS Dynamometer (BTE Technologies... Читать дальше...

Despite much progress in exploring the coupled epidemic-awareness dynamics in multiplex networks, little attention has been paid to the joint impacts of behavioral observability and social proof on epidemic spreading. Since both the protective actions taken by direct neighbors and the observability of these actions have essential influence on individuals’ decisions. Thus, we propose a UAPU-SIR model by integrating the effects of these two factors... Читать дальше...

This manuscript investigates bifurcation, chaos, and stability analysis for a significant model in the research of shallow water waves, known as the second 3D fractional Wazwaz-Benjamin-Bona-Mahony (WBBM) model. The dynamical system for the above-mentioned nonlinear structure is obtained by employing the Galilean transformation to fulfill the research objectives. Subsequent analysis includes planar dynamic systems techniques to investigate bifurcations... Читать дальше...

Metformin is a biguanide currently used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus type 2. Besides its anti-glycemic effects, metformin has been reported to induce different cellular pleiotropic effects, depending on concentration and time of treatment. Here we report one administration of metformin (0.5 mM) has radioprotective effects in vitro on BJ human fibroblasts, increasing DNA damage repair and increasing SOD1 expression in the nucleus.

ObjectiveStatins have anti-inflammatory and immune-modulatory effects which could alter the risk of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We reviewed published literature and conducted a meta-analysis to examine if statins have an impact on the risk of RA.
MethodsCase-control studies, cohort studies, or randomized controlled trials (RCT) published on the PubMed, Scopus, and EMBASE databases up to 30th October 2023 were searched. The association... Читать дальше...

This review aimed to determine the effectiveness of Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (IPC) intervention on Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) in surgical patients. An electronic database search was conducted with PubMed, OVID-MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL, from September 22 to 28, 2023. Three researchers independently selected the studies, assessed their methodological quality, and extracted relevant data. We conducted a meta-analysis of the effect of IPC... Читать дальше...
