Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a communication method and a related device. The method includes: A terminal device obtains a plurality of power offset values corresponding to one reference signal resource, determines a plurality of pieces of channel state information CSI based on the plurality of offset values, and sends some or all of the plurality of pieces of CSI to a network device. The network device may flexibly adjust data transmit power based on the plurality of power offset values and the plurality of pieces of corresponding CSI, and perform appropriate link adaptation adjustment.

Abstract: The present invention provides an application of tilapia oil or fractionated product thereof, which belongs to the technical field of food technology. The applications involve in swine feed, fat for replacing breast milk, or dairy products. The present invention found that palmitic acid, oleic acid and linoleic acid in tilapia oil, and more than 65% of palmitic acid is distributed in sn-2 position, the highest content of triglyceride OPL, can be used as fat additives in swine feed or formula milk powder use oil. Therefore, adding tilapia oil to swine feed or formula milk powder is beneficial to the absorption of fatty acids and calcium, and can improve the absorption and utilization of energy.

Abstract: Compounds that are selective inhibitors of Smad3 activation are disclosed. The compounds have the following structure: in which Z is an oxadiazole. The compounds disclosed are useful in treatment of fibrotic disease, particularly renal fibrosis, and similar diseases associated with the dysregulation of the HIPK2/Smad3 signaling pathway.

Abstract: The present invention provides the use of ATG in the preparation of a reagent for adjusting the activity of PP2A; and the use of ATG in increasing the activity of PP2A in 293T cells. The present invention also provides the use of the arctigenin in the preparation of the medicine for reducing the proteinuria of the diabetic mice. The present invention also provides the use of the arctigenin in the preparation of the reagent for inhibiting the expression of the NOX4 gene. The present invention also provides analogues of arctigenin and application thereof. The present invention provides a novel use of ATG for modulating PP2A activity, and ATG can also significantly reduce proteinuria in diabetic mice. At the same time, arctigenin could significantly inhibit the expression of NOX4 in STZ-eNOS?/? mice glomeruli. The ATG analogues of the present invention are more effective than the native ATG.

Abstract: This invention is a method for determining the compressive strength of cores obtained from concrete or similar materials by applying the load on 4 lines on the core cylindrical surface through a specially designed but very simple apparatus. The four loading lines are uniformly distributed on the circumstance of the test section of the core through using the apparatus so that the core is compressed in two diametrical directions—dual-dual directions orthogonal to each other. The stresses in the test section of cores are in three dimensional compression state and thus the test is of compressive nature. This invention avoids the trimming, capping, and curing operations which the conventional core test has to follow. Moreover, some factors that may result in the reduction in the reliability and the practical benefit of the core test can be greatly restrained or removed.
