    Nowadays consumer online reviews are becoming more and more important for enterprise decision-making. While the existing research seldom discussed review data from a dynamic perspective, especially ignored consumers\u27 attention change during the product life cycle. To study whether there are dynamic changes and the characteristics of changes in the attention degree of consumers in each phase of the product life cycle, this paper coded a specific node program to collect the online reviews data of the four mobile phones in the entire product life cycle and used python\u27s Chinese automatic word segmentation tool library to segment each word and count word frequency, and then a stepwise regression method was used to analyze the dynamic changes of consumer attention. The paper finds that consumers’ attention on logistics and products presented in online reviews show a downward trend, and the attention on brands shows an upward trend; There is no obvious change in the attention degree on services, prices, and promotion; On the different dimensions of products, there is a significant difference in the attention degree. The research results broad the research ideas of online reviews, provide decision-making basis for enterprises to grasp the characteristics of consumers at different stages and to formulate production and marketing strategies

    Until today, most Cervantist studies support the idea that Lin Shu (1852-1924) is the first translator of Don Quixote into Chinese. However, we had ignored another Chinese translator for a long time, Ma Yifu (1883-1967) who translated Don Quixote, long before Lin Shu, in 1905. In fact, in 2008, the Japanese intellectual, Tarumoto Teruo had already discovered his translation published in Independence weekly in 1913. But the misconception is so popular and ingrained that is still widely used in many studies to the present. On the other hand, Lin Shu is much more popular than Ma Yifu in China, which makes more difficult to correct this entrenched misconception. The present work focuses on presenting a general vision of the life of Ma Yifu and his translation of Don Quixote, «The biography of Mr. Ji». We desire to pay special attention to the extratextual factors of translation, which configures its sociocultural context of creation and reception, trying to fill the little-known area of receiving Don Quixote in China.Hasta hoy en día, la mayoría de los estudios cervantistas sostienen la idea de que Lin Shu (1852-1924) es el primer traductor de Don Quijote al chino (1922). Sin embargo, durante mucho tiempo, se ha ignorado a otro traductor chino, Ma Yifu (1883-1967), que tradujo Don Quijote mucho antes que Lin Shu, en 1905. De hecho, en 2008, el estudioso japonés Tarumoto Teruo ya había descubierto su traducción, publicada en el Semanario de la independencia, en 1913. Pero la idea errónea es tan popular y arraigada que continúa en muchos estudios hasta la actualidad. Por otro lado, Ma Yifu es mucho menos conocido que Lin Shu, incluso para los chinos, lo que hace más difícil corregir esta idea equivocada. El presente trabajo pretende presentar una visión general de la vida de Ma Yifu y de su traducción de Don Quijote, «La biografía del señor Ji». De manera intencionada, hemos querido prestar especial atención a los factores extratextuales de la traducción, los cuales configuran su contexto sociocultural de creación y de recepción, intentando recuperar el proceso poco conocido de la recepción del Quijote en China

    Background: 2,3-butanediol is an important platform compound which has a wide range of applications, involving in medicine, chemical industry, food and other fields. Especially the optically pure (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol can be employed as an antifreeze agent and as the precursor for producing chiral compounds. However, some (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol overproducing strains are pathogenic such as Enterobacter cloacae and Klebsiella oxytoca. Results: In this study, a (3R)-acetoin overproducing C. glutamicum strain, CGS9, was engineered to produce optically pure (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol efficiently. Firstly, the gene bdhA from B. subtilis 168 was integrated into strain CGS9 and its expression level was further enhanced by using a strong promoter Psod and ribosome binding site (RBS) with high translation initiation rate, and the (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol titer of the resulting strain was increased by 33.9%. Then the transhydrogenase gene udhA from E. coli was expressed to provide more NADH for 2,3-butanediol synthesis, which reduced the accumulation of the main byproduct acetoin by 57.2%. Next, a mutant atpG was integrated into strain CGK3, which increased the glucose consumption rate by 10.5% and the 2,3-butanediol productivity by 10.9% in shake-flask fermentation. Through fermentation engineering, the most promising strain CGK4 produced a titer of 144.9\ua0g/L (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol with a yield of 0.429\ua0g/g glucose and a productivity of 1.10\ua0g/L/h in fed-batch fermentation. The optical purity of the resulting (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol surpassed 98%. Conclusions: To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest titer of optically pure (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol achieved by GRAS strains, and the result has demonstrated that C. glutamicum is a competitive candidate for (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol production

    Accelerometer-measured intensity-specific physical activity, genetic risk and incident type 2 diabetes: A prospective cohort study

    Objective Although 30 min/day of moderate-intensity physical activity is suggested for preventing type 2 diabetes (T2D), the current recommendations exclusively rely on self-reports and rarely consider the genetic risk. We examined the prospective dose-response relationships between total/intensity-specific physical activity and incident T2D accounting for and stratified by different levels of genetic risk. Methods This prospective cohort study was based on 59 325 participants in the UK Biobank (mean age=61.1 years in 2013-2015). Total/intensity-specific physical activity was collected using accelerometers and linked to national registries until 30 September 2021. We examined the shape of the dose-response association between physical activity and T2D incidence using restricted cubic splines adjusted for and stratified by a polygenic risk score (based on 424 selected single nucleotide polymorphisms) using Cox proportional hazards models. Results During a median follow-up of 6.8 years, there was a strong linear dose-response association between moderate-to-vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA) and incident T2D, even after adjusting for genetic risk. Compared with the least active participants, the HRs (95% CI) for higher levels of MVPA were: 0.63 (0.53 to 0.75) for 5.3-25.9 min/day, 0.41 (0.34 to 0.51) for 26.0-68.4 min/day and 0.26 (0.18 to 0.38) for >68.4 min/day. While no significant multiplicative interaction between physical activity measures and genetic risk was found, we found a significant additive interaction between MVPA and genetic risk score, suggesting larger absolute risk differences by MVPA levels among those with higher genetic risk. Conclusion Participation in physical activity, particularly MVPA, should be promoted especially in those with high genetic risk of T2D. There may be no minimal or maximal threshold for the benefits. This finding can inform future guidelines development and interventions to prevent T2D.8 página

    IntroductionNatural disasters and the COVID-19 epidemic have caused serious consequences such as long-term disruption and chain reaction to the global supply chain. Global warming caused by a large number of greenhouse gases has accelerated the attention of society to environmental sustainability. Therefore, identifying the transmission path of the factors that affect the green supply chain resilience of agricultural products is the primary task to accelerate the construction of a modern circulation system of agricultural products, ensure market supply and protect the environment.MethodsBased on the stakeholder theory, this study uses the literature research method to identify 15 factors that affect the green supply chain resilience of agricultural products. Through improving DEMATEL and ISM to study the internal relationship between the influencing factors, build a multi-level hierarchical structure model, and identify the basic transmission process and path of the influencing factors.ResultsThe results show that the government’s issuance of environmental policies and the provision of financial subsidies are important driving forces to strengthen the green supply chain resilience of agricultural products; The collaboration capability and business sustainability goals directly affect the green supply chain resilience of agricultural products; Agility, digital infrastructure construction, sustainability beliefs of top managers, public opinion with environment information disclosure and other factors indirectly affect the green supply chain resilience of agricultural products.DiscussionThe conclusion shows that the most important way to guide the green supply chain of agricultural products to develop towards standardization, normalization and sustainability is to guide the organization to set business sustainable goals and strengthen the collaborative cooperation ability of all stakeholders in the supply chain, with the government issuing environmental policies and providing financial subsidies as the driving factors. This study can provide theoretical basis for the government and enterprises to strengthen the green supply chain resilience of agricultural products

    Investigation of the quench sensitivity of an AlSi10Mg alloy in permanent mold and high-pressure vacuum die wastings

    The quench sensitivities of an AlSi10Mg alloy in permanent mold (PM) and high-pressure vacuum die (HPVD) castings were investigated with time–temperature–transformation and time–temperature–property diagrams using an interrupted quench technique. The quench-sensitive temperature range of the HPVD casting sample is 275–450 °C, and its nose temperature is 375 °C. The quench-sensitive range of the PM casting sample is 255–430 °C, and the nose temperature is 350 °C. The mechanical strength versus the cooling rate in both casting samples were predicted via a quench factor analysis and verified experimentally. The critical cooling rate of the HPVD casting sample is 20 °C/s whereas it is 17 °C/s for the PM casting sample. With a shorter critical time, higher nose temperature, and higher critical cooling rate, the HPVD casting sample exhibits a higher quench sensitivity than the PM casting sample. The differences in the quench sensitivities of the AlSi10Mg alloy due to the different casting processes is explained via the different precipitation behavior. At the nose temperature, coarse β-Mg2Si precipitates mainly precipitate along the grain boundaries in the HPVD casting sample, whereas rod-like β-Mg2Si precipitates distribute in the aluminum matrix in the PM casting

    The quench sensitivity of an AlSi7MnMg alloy in high-pressure vacuum die (HPVD) casting was investigated by time-temperature-transformation and time-temperature-property diagrams with an interrupted quench technique. The quench sensitive temperature range of the alloy is from 260 to 430 °C and its nose temperature is 350 °C. The mechanical strength versus cooling rates of the HPVD casting was predicted using quench factor analysis method and verified by experimental results. The critical cooling rate is 6 °C/s to remain 95% of the maximal mechanical strength. The coefficients k2 - k5, related to the nucleation and precipitation kinetics of TTP curves, and phase transformation diagrams were determined. The precipitation of Mg2Si phase in the castings was observed during isothermal treatment using transmission electron microscope. Moreover, the quench sensitivity and kinetics of the phase transformation of AlSi7MnMg alloy and AlSi10MnMg alloys were compared. It reveals that the quench sensitivity and phase transformation rate of the former are lower than that of the latter
