TCM informatics and phenomics: genetic mutation of symptoms and biological basis of TCM patterns

摘要：&nbsp;基于中医信息学和表型组学思想的病-证生物学基础研究的理论和方法学框架,解读证候的遗传结构和疾病关联.挖掘中医信息学与表型组学的理论内涵,阐明中医学与表型组学之间具有相互借鉴的重要意义;从病-证关系这一难点问题入手,将证候视为一系列特定症状表型的组合,从理论与方法上探索中医信息学与表型组学的桥接点,结合文献证明这一方向的研究潜力,并以干燥综合征-阴虚证为例提出研究思路.提出一套基于中医信息学和表型组学的病-证生物学基础研究方法学框架,包括证候表型的确定;症状表型的提取、量化与组合;基因组学数据的获取与关联分析和结果解释.此框架可以挖掘出中医病-证研究中的遗传结构特异性,解读证候的遗传结构和症状与疾病关联,将有助于理解中医理论的科学本质,推动中医现代化发展.</p

JUNO Sensitivity on Proton Decay p→νˉK+p\to \bar\nu K^+ Searches

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a large liquid scintillator detector designed to explore many topics in fundamental physics. In this paper, the potential on searching for proton decay in $p\to \bar\nu K^+$ mode with JUNO is investigated.The kaon and its decay particles feature a clear three-fold coincidence signature that results in a high efficiency for identification. Moreover, the excellent energy resolution of JUNO permits to suppress the sizable background caused by other delayed signals. Based on these advantages, the detection efficiency for the proton decay via $p\to \bar\nu K^+$ is 36.9% with a background level of 0.2 events after 10 years of data taking. The estimated sensitivity based on 200 kton-years exposure is $9.6 \times 10^{33}$ years, competitive with the current best limits on the proton lifetime in this channel

JUNO sensitivity on proton decay p → ν K + searches*

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a large liquid scintillator detector designed to explore many topics in fundamental physics. In this study, the potential of searching for proton decay in the $p\to \bar{\nu} K^+$ mode with JUNO is investigated. The kaon and its decay particles feature a clear three-fold coincidence signature that results in a high efficiency for identification. Moreover, the excellent energy resolution of JUNO permits suppression of the sizable background caused by other delayed signals. Based on these advantages, the detection efficiency for the proton decay via $p\to \bar{\nu} K^+$ is 36.9% ± 4.9% with a background level of $0.2\pm 0.05({\rm syst})\pm$$0.2({\rm stat})$ events after 10 years of data collection. The estimated sensitivity based on 200 kton-years of exposure is $9.6 \times 10^{33}$ years, which is competitive with the current best limits on the proton lifetime in this channel and complements the use of different detection technologies
