Group sequential crossover trial designs with strong control of the familywise error rate

Crossover designs are an extremely useful tool to investigators, and group sequential methods have proven highly proficient at improving the efficiency of parallel group trials. Yet, group sequential methods and crossover designs have rarely been paired together. One possible explanation for this could be the absence of a formal proof of how to strongly control the familywise error rate in the case when multiple comparisons will be made. Here, we provide this proof, valid for any number of initial experimental treatments and any number of stages, when results are analyzed using a linear mixed model. We then establish formulae for the expected sample size and expected number of observations of such a trial, given any choice of stopping boundaries. Finally, utilizing the four-treatment, four-period TOMADO trial as an example, we demonstrate that group sequential methods in this setting could have reduced the trials expected number of observations under the global null hypothesis by over 33%.     

Evolution mechanism of active groups and thermal effects of Chinese lignite in low-temperature oxidation

Abstract

The evolution of active groups at low temperature was examined using Chinese lignite by infrared technology and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results showed that the hydroxyl, aliphatic ether, methylene, and methyl groups played important roles in the low-temperature oxidation of lignite below 200?°C. Carbonyl and carboxyl groups were important intermediates. Thus, a multi-step evolution mechanism involving the hydroxyl, aliphatic ether groups, and alkane was reasoned to describe the low-temperature oxidation of lignite. In addition, according to the oxidation kinetics experiment and the evolution laws of the active groups, the ratios of the reaction lines were determined considering the accuracy of thermal effects. The thermal effects and the heat release intensities of each temperature interval were obtained based on the evolution mechanism and the reaction ratios. The shortest spontaneous combustion period of lignite was calculated and compared with the experimental value, which proved that the reasoned evolution mechanism of the active groups and the calculations of the thermal effects were reliable.

Improving the homogeneity and properties of ferrous powder mixes by a novel powder mixing process

Fe-2Cu-0.8C powder mixes were prepared by a wet mixing and spray-drying process using iron, copper, graphite and zinc stearate as main raw materials, and stearic acid, alcohol wax and amide wax as binders. The properties of the as-prepared binder treated powder mixes were investigated. The bonding efficiency of the binders was tested by measure the retention of graphite and copper in the powder mixes after dusting resistance test. The test results show that the wet mixing and spray-drying process can realise the bonding of different particles and improve processing properties of the powder mixes. A flow rate of 30.6?s/50?g and an apparent density of 3.18?g/cm³ were obtained for powder mixes with alcohol wax as binder. The results of dusting resistance test demonstrated that alcohol wax and amide wax have better bonding effect for Cu and graphite powders, respectively, which was reflected by the difference value of electronegativity between Fe, Cu, C elements and functional groups. Compared with mechanically mixing powder mixes, using binder treated powder mixes can also reduce the friction coefficient during compaction by 0.012–0.026. The addition of different binders also has a great influence on the properties of sintered parts.

基于CDIO工程教育的应用型人才培养 理论与实践研究 — —以红外多路遥控系统设计为例

The construction of specialty groups in higher vocational colleges is in full swing. However, due to the cognitive bias and the lack of construction paradigm for reference, the construction of specialty groups is still in the period of "crossing the river by feeling the stones" with different opinions. There are some problems in the construction of specialty groups, such as unclear under- standing of the concept of specialty groups, unreasonable logic of groups, unclear construction of groups, and nonstandard manage- ment of groups. This paper describes the specific content of the construction of modern information technology specialty group based on the Sydney Agreement, hoping to form a reference paradigm for the construction of specialty group of similar colleges and universities.     

课程群案例嵌入协同教学模式的探索

在课程群的教学中由于每门课程各自独立开展教学,缺乏知识的融合和衔接,导致学生运用综合知识解决问题的能力较弱。在课程群的教学中采用案例嵌入协同教学模式,将完整的工程案例嵌入到课程群各门课程的教学中,协同规划各门课程的教学任务,每门课程再围绕案例展开研究性教学。通过嵌入的工程案例衔接各门课程的知识点,帮助学生建构完整的知识体系,强化工程应用的概念；同时通过研究性教学,培养学生分析问题和解决问题的能力,两部分相结合,提高了学生运用综合知识解决复杂问题的能力。

One-Pot Methods for the Protection and Assembly of Sugars

In recent years, there has been rapid expansion of glycan synthesis, fueled by the recognition that the structural complexity of sugars translates to a myriad of biological functions. Such chemical syntheses involve many challenges, mostly due to the regio- and stereochemical aspects of glycosidic bond formation. One-pot strategies were developed to assist in attaining faster and more economical access to the glycan constructs. In this front, achievements in protecting group manipulation, glycosylation, and combinations of these have been reported. Protecting group manipulations in one pot take advantage of the reaction compatibility of commonly used transformations, many of which occur in high regioselectivity. Sequential glycosylations, on the other hand, rely on leaving group orthogonalities and reactivity tuning, as well as the preactivation technique. Altogether, these approaches offer attractive means to the much needed glycan structures and, consequently, help usher in advances in glycoscience.
