ObjectiveEarly blight is a common destructive disease in the growth process of Solanaceae crops, which can lead to crop failure and serious losses. Traditional crop disease detection methods are difficult to detect disease characteristics in a timely manner during the incubation period of disease, and thus take scientific and effective prevention and control measures. This study obtained hyperspectral images of early blight of peppers at different infection stages through continuous monitoring with a hyperspectral imager. The earliest identifiable time during the incubation period of early blight in peppers (the earliest identifiable time during the incubation period in this experiment was 24 h after inoculation) was determined using the spectral angle cosine-correlation coefficient and Chebyshev distance. MethodsTaking the symptoms of the latent period of early blight in peppers as the research object, 13 characteristic wavelengths were selected using a genetic algorithm. An identification model of crop disease latent period symptoms based on spectral features was established through optimized combinations of characteristic wavelengths combined with a logistic regression model. Simultaneously, a recognition model of the latent period of early blight in peppers based on image texture features was established using local binary patterns. ResultsThe experiment was tested with 120 samples. The accuracy of the identification model of crop disease latent period symptoms based on spectral features reached over 93% in both the training set and the test set. The accuracy of the identification model of crop disease latent period symptoms based on texture features reached 98.96% and 100% in the training set and test set, respectively. ConclusionBoth spectral features and texture features can be used to detect and identify crop disease latent period symptoms. Texture features more significantly revealed the characteristics of the latent period of the disease compared to spectral features, effectively improving the detection performance of the model. The research results in this article can provide theoretical references for monitoring and identifying other crop disease latent period symptoms.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of microRNA-1(miR-1),brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)and ischemia-modified albumin(IMA)for unstable angina pectoris(UAP).Methods:We enrolled 237 UAP patients admitted to Xining Second People's Hospital between June 2018 and December 2020 as UAP group.Another 86 healthy subjects undergoing physical examination simultaneously were enrolled as control group.MiR-1 expression,BNP and IMA levels were measured.General data between UAP group and control group,serum miR-1 expression,BNP and IMA levels among different Braunwald class and prognosis were compared.Receiver operat-ing characteristic(ROC)curve was employed to analyze predictive value of miR-1,BNP,IMA and their combina-tion for prognosis in UAP patients.Results:Compared with participants in the control group,those in UAP group had significant higher serum miR-1 expression[(1.80±0.59)vs.(0.93±0.11)],BNP[(107.34±37.46)pg/ml vs.(52.31±10.64)pg/ml]and IMA[(79.76±19.29)g/L vs.(53.16±6.43)g/L](P<0.001 all).As Braun-wald class increased(class Ⅰ~Ⅲ),serum miR-1 expression,BNP and IMA levels elevated(P<0.001 all).Com-pared with patients in favorable outcome group,those in unfavorable outcome group had significant higher serum miR-1 expression[(2.31±0.54)vs.(1.53±0.41)],BNP[(147.03±29.63)pg/ml vs.(85.95±19.46)pg/ml]and IMA[(97.24±15.35)g/L vs.(70.35±13.88)g/L](P<0.001 all).ROC curve indicated that AUC of com-bined detection for predicting unfavorable outcome in UAP patients was 0.925(95%CI 0.884~0.955),which was significantly higher than miR-1(AUC=0.880,95%CI 0.831~0.918),BNP(AUC=0.863,95%CI 0.813~0.904)and IMA(AUC=0.900,95%CI 0.854~0.935)alone(Z=2.884,3.130,2.090,P<0.05 or<0.01).Conclusion:MiR-1 expression,BNP and IMA levels significantly increase in UAP patients,and they are associated with the severity of disease.Combined detection has good predictive value for unfavorable outcome in UAP pa-tients.

The Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) continues to optimize asthma treatment strategies and has introduced the concepts of anti-inflammatory reliever (AIR) and maintenance and reliever therapy(MART). AIR mainly includes Budesonide-Formoterol, Beclomethasone-Formoterol, and inhaled corticosteroids(ICS)combined with short-acting beta2-agonist.MART refers to a treatment regimen that utilizes the same ICS-Formoterol combination for both maintenance and reliever therapy.Currently, AIR and MART are recommended for the treatment of asthma in children aged 6 years and older, adolescents and adults.This article provides an interpretation of the pediatric AIR and MART content in GINA 2025, highlighting their clinical application in pediatric asthma treatment and their role in asthma action plans, with the aim of providing a reference for clinicians to optimize the treatment of pediatric asthma.
