Effective water influx control in gas reservoir development: Problems and countermeasures by Xi Feng, Bing Zhong, Xuefeng Yang, Hui Deng

“…Based on this background, from the perspective of the early-phase requirements of water influx control, the influencing factors of a water influx activity, the dynamic analysis method of water influx performance, the optimizing strategy of a water control, and the water control experience of typical gas reservoirs, this paper analyzed the key problems of water control, evaluated the influencing factors of water control effect, explored the practical water control strategies, and proposed that it should be inappropriate to apply the previous water control technological model to actual work but the pertinence should be improved according to actual circumstances. …”

Feature-based attention warps the perception of visual features by Angus F. Chapman, Chaipat Chunharas, Viola S. Störmer

“…Critically, the magnitude of these perceptual biases varied systematically with the similarity between target and distractor colors during search, indicating that attentional tuning quickly adapts to current task demands. In control experiments we rule out possible non-attentional explanations such as color contrast or memory effects. …”

Urban Remote Sensing with Spatial Big Data: A Review and Renewed Perspective of Urban Studies in Recent Decades by Danlin Yu, Chuanglin Fang

“…Urban scholars are now equipped with abundant data to examine many theoretical arguments that often result from limited and indirect observations and less-than-ideal controlled experiments. For the first time, urban scholars can model, simulate, and predict changes in the urban landscape using real-time data to produce the most realistic results, providing invaluable information for urban planners and governments to aim for a sustainable and healthy urban future. …”

Effective Validation Model and Use of Mobile-Health Applications for the Elderly by Leonardo Juan Ramirez Lopez, Edward Paul Guillen Pinto, Carlos Omar Ramos Linares

“…ObjectivesDue to the uncontrolled increase of the mobile health applications and their scarce use by elderly for reason of absence credibility of measurements by lack scientific support, the aim of this study was to evaluate the differences between the biophysical measurements based on standard instrument against a mobile application using controlled experiments with elderly to propose an effective validation model of the developed apps.MethodsThe subjects of the study (50 people) were elderly people who wanted to check their weight and cardiac status. …”

Investigating the Effect of Cognitive–Behavioral, Mindful-Based, Emotional-Based Intervention and Professional Training on Teachers’ Job Burnout: A Meta-Analysis by Jian Li, Eryong Xue, Yunshu He

“…This study adopts the meta-analysis method and makes a statistical analysis of the interventions’ effect on teachers’ job burnout based on 29 papers in the literature of randomized controlled experiments. It mainly presents the basic external characteristics of the research literature; besides, based on the results of software CMA.V3, this paper also analysed the overall intervention effect and the separate effect of four types of intervention, namely, cognitive–behavioral interventions (CBI), mindfulness-based interventions (MBI), professional training (PT), and emotional-based intervention (EBI). …”

A RNase P Ribozyme Inhibits Gene Expression and Replication of Hepatitis B Virus in Cultured Cells by Bin Yan, Yujun Liu, Yuan-Chuan Chen, Fenyong Liu

“…In these cultured cells, the expression of M1-S-A resulted in a reduction of more than 80% in both HBV RNA and protein levels and an inhibition of about 300-fold in the capsid-associated HBV DNA levels when compared to the cells that did not express any ribozymes. In control experiments, cells expressing an inactive control ribozyme displayed little impact on HBV RNA and protein levels, and on capsid-associated viral DNA levels. …”

Aptamer-Equipped Protamine Nanomedicine for Precision Lymphoma Therapy by Zihua Zeng, Ching-Hsuan Tung, Youli Zu

“…Additionally, flow cytometry analysis demonstrated that under CD30 aptamer guidance, the protamine nanomedicine specifically bound to lymphoma cells, but did not react to off-target cells in control experiments. Moreover, specific cell targeting and intracellular delivery of the nanomedicine were also validated by electron and confocal microscopy. …”
