Abstract: A stent for aorta is formed by weaving at least two types of filaments having different diameters, such as a first filament and a second filament. The stent is configured to be at least partially compressible and extensible along the axial direction of the stent in a natural release state, wherein the first filament has a diameter of 20-150 ?m, and the second filament has a diameter of 150-800 ?m. When the stent is used in the treatment of aortic aneurysm and/or aortic dissection lesions, due to the axial compressibility and extensibility of the stent, low liquid permeability and strong radial support force are provided where needed in the aorta, and due to the axial stretchability thereof, the stent can be easily assembled to a delivery system having an appropriate diameter. Also provided are a stent kit comprising the stent and a stent delivery system.

Abstract: Provided is the use of a CSF1R kinase inhibitor compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in the preparation of drugs for treating diseases related to the CSF1R kinase signal transduction pathway or drugs for regulating immunization.

Abstract: An intracavity frequency-doubling laser device includes a first mirror and a second mirror defining a resonance cavity, a gain media to produce a first lasing light in response to an external pump beam received from outside the cavity, a nonlinear frequency-doubling optical element to generate a second lasing light in response to the first lasing light, a birefringent waveplate to control phase properties of the first and second lasing lights, and a fused quartz element positioned at the exit of the resonance cavity. The second mirror is formed as a relatively thick film on the fused quartz and is controlled to create an output beam of the second lasing light with great accuracy. The four components within the resonance cavity are positioned back-to-back and held in place using an optical glue (forming a compact, miniaturized laser device).

Abstract: A power converter includes a power controller and the power conversion circuit. The power conversion circuit includes a first power transistor. The power controller is configured to: when the first power transistor is in an on state, receive an instruction of stopping sending a pulse width modulation (PWM) driver gating signal, where the instruction of stopping sending a PWM driver gating signal instructs to perform control over stopping sending a PWM driver gating signal on the first power transistor; and when a specified condition is met, perform, according to the instruction of stopping sending a PWM driver gating signal, control over stopping sending a PWM driver gating signal on the first power transistor, where the specified condition is that a drive signal of the first power transistor is a turn-off signal.

Abstract: Techniques for inspecting a substrate can include scanning the substrate across a plurality of scan positions using an interrogation beam having a width substantially equal to or greater than a diameter of at least one surface feature on a surface of the substrate to generate scanning results. A set of raw centroid calculation results can be generated based on the scanning results. An error property can be determined and removed from the raw centroid calculation results to generated refined centroid calculation results. A characteristic of the surface feature can be determined based on the centroid calculation results.

Abstract: Use of a compound of general formula (A) which is a CFS-IR kinase inhibitor or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in the preparation of medicaments for treating diseases related to CSF-1R kinase signal transduction pathway or medicaments for regulating immunization. In vivo and in vitro studies show that the compound can significantly inhibit CSF-IR kinase activity; significantly inhibits the proliferation of a CSF-1/CSF-1R-driven mouse myeloid leukemia cell line, inhibits the survival of macrophages induced by CSF-1 and reverses M2 polarization phenotype of macrophages, and has an effect superior to that of the marketed medicament Pexidartinib. In a TAM enriched tumor model (MC38 model), the compound significantly antagonizes the tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment and exhibits significant anti-tumor efficacy.

Abstract: An axially compressible bare stent for an aorta, formed by interleaving at least two wires having different diameters, i.e., a first wire and a second wire, in an overlapping manner. In a natural release state, the bare stent has a metal coverage of at least 30%. The first wire has a diameter of 20-150 ?m, and the second wire has a diameter of 150-600 ?m. During the use in the treatment of aortic aneurysms and/or aortic dissection lesions, low liquid permeability and a strong radial support force are provided at a desired location in an aorta by means of the axial compressibility of the bare stent.

Abstract: Various examples described herein include various mechanisms, techniques, and methods to subtract collected signals caused by a periodic pattern formed on substrates to enable a higher level of defect detection on substrates. Signals detected by various types of metrology and substrate-inspection systems that are caused by periodic patterns on inspected substrates can be reduced or eliminated by, for example, a Fourier analysis of the detected signals. Both gray-scale value thresholds and area thresholds may be applied after the Fourier analysis of the image and are sufficient for defect detection on an image with a substantially-reduced number of false defects or no defects being present in a final image produced after processing. Other techniques and methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: A transaction method and a node design in a blockchain system, where a client initiates a transaction using a Structured Query Language (SQL) write command including transaction data or queries transaction data using an SQL query command. A node parses an SQL command, executes a simulated transaction, and checks block data based on a transaction result of the simulated transaction after obtaining the block data. After the check succeeds, the node converts the block data into an SQL write command that writes the block data, thereby writing the block data to a relational database.
