| 1 | APACHE system is better than Ranson system in the prediction of severity of acute pancreatitis显示文摘BACKGROUND: It has been suggested that addition of obesity score to the APACHE-Ⅱ system can lead to more accurate prediction of severity of acute pancreatitis. However there is scanty information on the usefulness of the combined APACHE-O scoring system in Asian patients. This study aimed to compare the accuracy of Ranson, APACHE-Ⅱ and APACHE-O systems in assessing severity of acute pancreatitis in a local Chinese population. METHODS: One hundred and one consecutive patients with acute pancreatitis were prospectively studied. Body mass index (BMI) was measured on admission. Ranson score, APACHE-Ⅱ and APACHE-O scores were recorded on admission and at 48 hours. By adopting the cut-off levels and definitions advocated in the Atlanta consensus for severe disease, the diagnostic accuracy of the three scoring systems was compared by the area under the curve (AUC) under the receiver operator characteristic curve. RESULTS: Of the 101 patients, 12 (11.9%) patients suffered from severe pancreatitis. Obesity was uncommon and only two patients (2.0%) had BMI >30. Eighty-two (81.2%) patients were normal weight (BMI≤25) whereas 17 (16.8%) were overweight ( BMI 25-30 ). Overweight or obesity (BMI >25) was not associated with severe pancreatitis (P= 0.40). The AUC for admission scores of Ranson, APACHE-Ⅱ, and APACHE-O systems was 0. 549, 0. 904 and 0. 904, respectively. The AUC for 48-hour scores of Ranson, APACHE-Ⅱ and APACHE-O systems was 0.808, 0.955 and 0.951, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The APACHE-Ⅱ scoring system is more accurate than the Ranson scoring system of the prediction of severity in acute pancreatitis. Addition of obesity score does not significantly improve the predictive accuracy of the APACHE-Ⅱ system in our local population with a low prevalence of obesity. | Yuk Pang Yeung Billy Yeung Kit Lam Andrew Wai Chun Yip | 2006 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2006，5，2： | 41 |
| 2 | LARGE-EDDY SIMULATION OF FLOW AROUND CYLINDER ARRAYS AT A SUBCRITICAL REYNOLDS NUMBER显示文摘The complex three-dimensional turbulent flows around a cylinder array with four cylinders in an in-line square configuration at a subcritical Reynolds number of 1.5×104 with the spacing ratio at L/D=1.5 and 3.5 were investigated using the Large Eddy Simulation (LES). The full field vorticity and velocity distributions as well as turbulent quantities were calculated in detail and the near wake structures were presented. The results show that the bi-stable flow nature was observed at L/D=1.5 and distinct vortex shedding of the upstream cylinders occurred at L/ D=3.5 at Re =1.5×104. The techniques of Laser Doppler Anemometry (LDA) and Digital Particle Image Velocimetry (DPIV) are also employed to validate the present LES method. The results show that the numerical predictions are in excellent agreement with the experimental measurements. Therefore, the full field instantaneous and mean quantities of the flow field, velocity field and vorticity field can be extracted from the LES results for further study of the complex flow characteristics. | ZOU Lin LIN Yu-feng LAM Kit | 2008 | Journal of Hydrodynamics2008，20，4： | 21 |

| 5 | Epac2-deficiency leads to more severe retinal swelling, glial reactivity and oxidative stress in transient middle cerebral artery occlusion induced ischemic retinopathy显示文摘Ischemia occurs in diabetic retinopathy with neuronal loss, edema, glial cell reactivity and oxidative stress. Epacs, consisting of Epac1 and Epac2, are c AMP mediators playing important roles in maintenance of endothelial barrier and neuronal functions. To investigate the roles of Epacs in the pathogenesis of ischemic retinopathy, transient middle cerebral artery occlusion(t MCAO) was performed on Epac1-deficient(Epac1-/-) mice, Epac2-deficient(Epac2-/-) mice, and their wild type counterparts(Epac1+/+ and Epac2+/+). Two-hour occlusion and 22-hour reperfusion were conducted to induce ischemia/reperfusion injury to the retina. After t MCAO, the contralateral retinae displayed similar morphology between different genotypes. Neuronal loss, retinal edema and increase in immunoreactivity for aquaporin 4(AQP4), glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP), peroxiredoxin 6(Prx6) were observed in ipsilateral retinae. Epac2-/- ipsilateral retinae showed more neuronal loss in retinal ganglion cell layer, increased retinal thickness and stronger immunostaining of AQP4, GFAP, and Prx6 than those of Epac2+/+. However, Epac1-/- ipsilateral retinae displayed similar pathology as those in Epac1+/+ mice. Our observations suggest that Epac2-deficiency led to more severe ischemic retinopathy after retinal ischemia/reperfusion injury. | LIU Jin YEUNG Patrick Ka Kit CHENG Lu LO Amy Cheuk Yin CHUNG Stephen Sum Man CHUNG Sookja Kim | 2015 | Science China(Life Sciences)2015，58，6： | 12 |
| 6 | Systematic review of the outcomes of surgical resection for intermediate and advanced Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage hepatocellular carcinoma:A critical appraisal of the evidence显示文摘AIM To perform a systematic review to determine the survival outcomes after curative resection of intermediate and advanced hepatocellular carcinomas(HCC).METHODS A systematic review of the published literature was performed using the PubM ed database from 1 st January 1999 to 31 st Dec 2014 to identify studies that reported outcomes of liver resection as the primary curative treatment for Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer(BCLC) stage B or C HCC. The primary end point was to determine the overall survival(OS) and disease free survival(DFS) of liver resection of HCC in BCLC stage B or C in patients with adequate liver reserve(i.e., Child's A or B status). The secondary end points were to assess the morbidity and mortality of liver resection in large HCC(defined as lesions larger than 10 cm in diameter) and to compare the OS and DFS after surgical resection of solitary vs multifocal HCC.RESULTS We identified 74 articles which met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed in this systematic review. Analysis of the resection outcomes of the included studies were grouped according to(1) BCLC stage B or C HCC,(2) Size of HCC and(3) multifocal tumors. The median 5-year OS of BCLC stage B was 38.7%(range 10.0-57.0); while the median 5-year OS of BCLC stage C was 20.0%(range 0.0-42.0). The collective median 5-year OS of both stages was 27.9%(0.0-57.0). In examining the morbidity and mortality following liver resection in large HCC, the pooled RR for morbidity [RR(95%CI) = 1.00(0.76-1.31)] and mortality [RR(95%CI) = 1.15(0.73-1.80)] were not significant. Within the spectrum of BCLC B and C lesions, tumors greater than 10 cm were reported to have median 5-year OS of 33.0% and multifocal lesions 54.0%.CONCLUSION Indication for surgical resection should be extended to BCLC stage B lesions in selected patients. Further studies are needed to stratify stage C lesions for resection. | Ye Xin Koh Hwee Leong Tan Weng Kit Lye Juinn Huar Kam Adrian Kah Heng Chiow Siong San Tan Su Pin Choo Alexander Yaw Fui Chung Brian Kim Poh Goh | 2018 | World Journal of Hepatology2018，10，6： | 10 |
| 7 | Microalgae:A potential alternative to health supplementation for humans显示文摘Microalgae has been consumed in human diet for thousands of years.It is an under-exploited crop for production of dietary foods.Microalgae cultivation does not compete with land and resources required for traditional crops and has a superior yield compared to terrestrial crops.Its high protein content has exhibited a huge potential to meet the dietary requirements of growing population.Apart from being a source of protein,presence of various bio-active components in microalgae provide an added health benefit.This review describes various microalgal sources of proteins and other bio-active components.One of the heavily studied group of bio-active components are pigments due to their anticarcenogenic,antioxidative and antihypertensive properties.Compared to various plant and floral species,microalgae contain higher amounts of pigments.Microalgal derived proteins have complete Essential Amino Acids(EAA)profiles and their protein content is higher than conventional sources such as meat,poultry and dairy products.However,microalgal based functional foods have not flooded the market.The lack of awareness coupled with scarce incentives for producers result in under-exploitation of microalgal potential.Application of microalgal derived components as dietary and nutraceutical supplements is discussed comprehensively. | Apurav Krishna Koyande Kit Wayne Chew Krishnamoorthy Rambabu Yang Tao Dinh-Toi Chu Pau-Loke Show | 2019 | Food Science and Human Wellness2019，8，1： | 10 |

| 9 | A low-carbon oriented probabilistic approach for transmission expansion planning显示文摘Following the deregulation of the power industry,transmission expansion planning(TEP)has become more complicated due to the presence of uncertainties and conflicting objectives in a market environment.Also,the growing concern on global warming highlights the importance of considering carbon pricing policies during TEP.In this paper,a probabilistic TEP approach is proposed with the integration of a chance constrained load curtailment index.The formulated dynamic programming problem is solved by a hybrid solution algorithm in an iterative process.The performance of our approach is demonstrated by case studies on a modified IEEE 14-bus system.Simulation results prove that our approach can provide network planners with comprehensive information regarding effects of uncertainties on TEP schemes,allowing them to adjust planning strategies based on their risk aversion levels or financial constraints. | Jing QIU Zhaoyang DONG Junhua ZHAO Ke MENG Fengji LUO Kit Po WONG Chao LU | 2015 | Journal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy2015，3，1： | 8 |
| 10 | An online maximum power point capturing technique for highefficiency power generation of solar photovoltaic systems显示文摘This paper proposes a novel high-efficiency generation technique for photovoltaic(PV) system,named maximum power point capturing(MPPC) technique. This is an aperiodic perturbation MPPC technique compared to the conventional periodic perturbation maximum power point tracking technique. Firstly, under a closed-loop circuit and an open-loop circuit,the complete I-V curves and P-V curves are defined. Secondly, the proposed MPPC technique is based on the complete I-V curves and a practical model of solar PV systems.The proposed method realizes that maximum power point(MPP) is captured online, and its control strategy is designed to set a steady operating area around MPP. The duty cycle keeps constant when the operating point is within the steady operating area, i.e., aperiodic perturbation, and when the operating point is outside the steady operating area, MPPC is triggered to capture a new MPP with an updated steady operating area. Simulation results demonstrate that no oscillations exist in steady-state;dynamic performances are improved;and only two perturbations are required to capture the new MPP. Using the proposed MPPC method,low voltage ride through and high voltage ride through can be prevented. | Lijun ZHANG Samson Shenglong YU Tyrone FERNANDO Herbert Ho-Ching IU Kit Po WONG | 2019 | Journal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy2019，7，2： | 8 |
| 11 | Adsorptive hemofiltration for sepsis management: expert recommendations based on the Asia Pacific experience显示文摘To the Editor:In sepsis,bacterial endotoxins play a central role by inducing a dysregulated and exaggerated release of inflammatory mediators and cytokines,often described as the“cytokine storm”or“cytokinemia.”[1]Both endotoxins and cytokines have been implicated in the development of organ dysfunction,including acute kidney injury(AKI).[2]Removing circulating endotoxins and excess cytokines from the circulation restores chemotactic gradients,localizing the immune response to the principal site of infection and re-establishing a regulated immune response.[1,3]Therefore,using hemofilters with enhanced endotoxin and cytokine adsorptive properties may bring about additional therapeutic benefits compared with conventional continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT)filters. | Ling Zhang Matthew Cove Binh G.Nguyen Nuttha Lumlertgul Kartik Ganesh Alfred Chan Giang T.H.Bui Chunwen Guo Junhua Li Songqiao Liu Mian Peng Kit W.Foong Jian Zhang Minmin Wang Jacques Goldstein Kai Harenski | 2021 | Chinese Medical Journal2021，，18： | 6 |

| 17 | Distributed Control of Thermostatically Controlled Loads in Distribution Network with High Penetration of Solar PV显示文摘High penetration of solar energy can result in voltage rise in midday,while growth in residential air conditioning is the main contributor of overloading and voltage drop issues during peak demand time.This paper provides a hierarchical control scheme to coordinate multiple groups of aggregated thermostatically controlled loads to regulate network loading and voltage in a distribution network.Considering the limited number of messages that can be exchanged in a realistic communication environment,an event-triggered distributed control strategy is proposed in this paper.Through intermittent on and off toggling of air conditioners,the required active power adjustment is shared among participating aggregators to solve the issue.A case study is conducted and simulation results are presented to demonstrate the performance of the proposed control scheme. | Ke Meng Dongxiao Wang Zhao Yang Dong Xiaodan Gao Yu Zheng Kit Po Wong | 2017 | CSEE Journal of Power and Energy Systems2017，3，1： | 4 |
| 18 | Identification of Ca2+ signaling components in neural stem/progenitor cells during differentiation into neurons and glia in intact and dissociated zebrafish neurospheres显示文摘The development of the CNS in vertebrate embryos involves the generation of different sub-types of neurons and glia in a complex but highly-ordered spatio-temporal manner. Zebrafish are commonly used for exploring the development, plasticity and regeneration of the CNS, and the recent development of reliable protocols for isolating and culturing neural stem/progenitor cells(NSCs/NPCs) from the brain of adult fish now enables the exploration of mechanisms underlying the induction/specification/differentiation of these cells. Here, we refined a protocol to generate proliferating and differentiating neurospheres from the entire brain of adult zebrafish. We demonstrated via RT-qPCR that some isoforms of ip3 r, ryr and stim are upregulated/downregulated significantly in differentiating neurospheres, and via immunolabelling that 1,4,5-inositol trisphosphate receptor(IP3 R) type-1 and ryanodine receptor(RyR) type-2 are differentially expressed in cells with neuron-or radial glial-like properties. Furthermore, ATP but not caffeine(IP3 R and RyR agonists, respectively), induced the generation of Ca^(2+) transients in cells exhibiting neuron-or glial-like morphology. These results indicate the differential expression of components of the Ca^(2+) -signaling toolkit in proliferating and differentiating cells. Thus, given the complexity of the intact vertebrate brain, neurospheres might be a useful system for exploring neurodegenerative disease diagnosis protocols and drug development using Ca^(2+) signaling as a read-out. | Man Kit Tse Ting Shing Hung Ching Man Chan Tiffany Wong Mike Dorothea Catherine Leclerc Marc Moreau Andrew L.Miller Sarah E.Webb | 2018 | Science China(Life Sciences)2018，61，11： | 4 |
| 19 | Enhancement of norfloxacin solubility via inclusion complexation with β-cyclodextrin and its derivative hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin显示文摘The objectives of the study were to investigate the effects of β-cyclodextrin(βCD) and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin(HPβCD) on the solubility and dissolution rate of norfloxacin prepared using three different methods, at drug to cyclodextrin weight ratios of 1:1, 1:2, 1:4 and 1:8. All the methods increased the solubility and dissolution rate of norfloxacin via inclusion complexation with βCD and HPβCD. Norfloxacin was converted from crystalline to amorphous form through inclusion complexation. Solvent evaporation method was the most effective method in terms of norfloxacin solubilisation, while inclusion complex of HPβCD has higher solubility than βCD complex when prepared using the same procedure. | Gabriel Onn Kit Loh Yvonne Tze Fung Tan Kok-Khiang Peh | 2016 | Asian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences2016，11，4： | 4 |
