Real estate rental market: a 10-year bibliometricbased review

The real estate rental market (RERM) is considered to have an important role in the entire real estate market. It refers to a property composed of land and its buildings, including the natural resources that can be rented or leased. Previous researches show that most developed countries have experienced the historical process of passively renting, actively buying, and actively renting. Moreover, academic interest in the impact of different sectors of the RERM has been reviewed increasingly over the past decade. However, previous studies provide limited insights into a comprehensive review of the RERM. Based on a 10-year database of 790 articles collected from the Web of Science, a comprehensive literature review is presented to discover the knowledge structure of RERM using CiteSpace software. First, this study recognizes the cluster of the articles, and discusses six major clusters in detail. Next, this study has identified four research trends that emerged during the past decade. To reveal the differences between the studies in the United States (US), China and the United Kingdom (UK), this study compares their publication scales and co-word networks. Finally, this study suggests six meaningful future research directions

Controllable nonlinear propagation of partially incoherent Airy beams

The self-accelerating beams such as the Airy beam show great potentials in many applications including optical manipulation, imaging and communication. However, their superior features during linear propagation could be easily corrupted by optical nonlinearity or spatial incoherence individually. Here we investigate how the interaction of spatial incoherence and nonlinear propagation affect the beam quality of Airy beam, and find that the two destroying factors can in fact balance each other. Our results show that the influence of coherence and nonlinearity on the propagation of PIABs can be formulated as two exponential functions that have factors of opposite signs. With appropriate spatial coherence length, the PIABs not only resist the corruption of beam profile caused by self-focusing nonlinearity, but also exhibits less anomalous diffraction caused by the self-defocusing nonlinearity. Our work provides deep insight into how to maintain the beam quality of self-accelerating Airy beams by exploiting the interaction between partially incoherence and optical nonlinearity. Our results may bring about new possibilities for optimizing partially incoherent structured field and developing related applications such as optical communication, incoherent imaging and optical manipulations.Comment: 11pages,6 figure

Therapeutics of Charcot neuroarthropathy and pharmacological mechanisms: A bone metabolism perspective

Charcot neuroarthropathy (CN) is a chronic, destructive, and painless damage of the skeletal system that affects the life quality of patients. CN, with an unclear mechanism, is characterized with invasive destruction of bones and a serious abnormality of bone metabolism. Unfortunately, development of an effective prevention and treatment strategy for CN is still a great challenge. Of note, recent studies providing an insight into the molecular mechanisms of bone metabolism and homeostasis have propelled development of novel CN therapeutic strategies. Therefore, this review aims to shed light on the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of CN. In particular, we highlight the eminent role of the osteoprotegerin (OPG)-receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (RANK)-RANK ligand (RANKL) system in the development of CN. Furthermore, we summarize and discuss the diagnostic biomarkers of CN as well as the potential pharmacological mechanisms of current treatment regimens from the perspective of bone metabolism. We believe that this review will enhance the current state of knowledge on the diagnosis, prevention, and therapeutic efficacy of CN

Ball Mill Fault Prediction Based on Deep Convolutional Auto-Encoding Network

Ball mills play a critical role in modern mining operations, making their bearing failures a significant concern due to the potential loss of production efficiency and economic consequences. This paper presents an anomaly detection method based on Deep Convolutional Auto-encoding Neural Networks (DCAN) for addressing the issue of ball mill bearing fault detection. The proposed approach leverages vibration data collected during normal operation for training, overcoming challenges such as labeling issues and data imbalance often encountered in supervised learning methods. DCAN includes the modules of convolutional feature extraction and transposed convolutional feature reconstruction, demonstrating exceptional capabilities in signal processing and feature extraction. Additionally, the paper describes the practical deployment of the DCAN-based anomaly detection model for bearing fault detection, utilizing data from the ball mill bearings of Wuhan Iron & Steel Resources Group and fault data from NASA's bearing vibration dataset. Experimental results validate the DCAN model's reliability in recognizing fault vibration patterns. This method holds promise for enhancing bearing fault detection efficiency, reducing production interruptions, and lowering maintenance costs.Comment: 9 pages, 11 figure

The RANK/RANKL/OPG system and tumor bone metastasis: Potential mechanisms and therapeutic strategies

With the markedly increased diagnosis and incidence of cancer in the population, tumor bone metastasis has become a frequent event in tumor patients. Healthy bone integrity is maintained by a delicate balance between bone formation and bone resorption. Unfortunately, many tumors, such as prostate and breast, often metastasize to the bone, and the alterations to the bone homeostasis can particularly favor tumor homing and consequent osteolytic or osteoblastic lesions. Receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL), its receptor RANK, and osteoprotegerin (OPG) are involved in the regulation of the activation, differentiation, and survival of osteoclasts, which play critical roles in bone metastasis formation. High rates of osteoclastic bone resorption significantly increase fracture risk, cause severe bone pain, and contribute to homing tumor cells in bone and bone marrow. Consequently, suppression of the RANK/RANKL/OPG system and osteoclastic activity can not only ameliorate bone resorption but may also prevent tumor bone metastases. This review summarizes the important role of the RANK/RANKL/OPG system and osteoclasts in bone homeostasis and its effect on tumor bone metastasis and discusses therapeutic strategies based on RANKL inhibition

RadOnc-GPT: A Large Language Model for Radiation Oncology

This paper presents RadOnc-GPT, a large language model specialized for radiation oncology through advanced tuning methods. RadOnc-GPT was finetuned on a large dataset of radiation oncology patient records and clinical notes from the Mayo Clinic in Arizona. The model employs instruction tuning on three key tasks - generating radiotherapy treatment regimens, determining optimal radiation modalities, and providing diagnostic descriptions/ICD codes based on patient diagnostic details. Evaluations conducted by comparing RadOnc-GPT outputs to general large language model outputs showed that RadOnc-GPT generated outputs with significantly improved clarity, specificity, and clinical relevance. The study demonstrated the potential of using large language models fine-tuned using domain-specific knowledge like RadOnc-GPT to achieve transformational capabilities in highly specialized healthcare fields such as radiation oncology
