Thousands of resting state functional magnetic resonance imag-ing (RS-fMRI) articles have been published on brain disorders.For precise localization of abnormal brain activity,a voxel-level com-parison is needed.Because of the large number of voxels in the brain,multiple comparison correction (MCC) must be performed to reduce false positive rates,and a smaller P value (usually includ-ing either liberal or stringent MCC) is widely recommended [1].The study suggests that a stringent MCC may reduce the number of false positive results so that the brain regions surviving MCC are true positive results,and thus can improve the reproducibility between studies.However,determining the clusters that represent true positives is difficult because ground truths have not been established for many brain disorders that do not present visible structural abnormalities,e.g.,Parkinson\'s disease (PD) and many psychiatric disorders.Meta-analysis provides robust results that can be used to investigate reproducibility across studies.However,most existing neuroimaging meta-analytic articles are based on only a few peak coordinates reported in the original articles,namely coordinate-based meta-analysis (CB-meta) [2].The current REST-meta-PD study included raw RS-fMRI data from 15 cohorts of PD patients and performed a meta-analysis of the amplitude of low frequency fluctuations (ALFF) [3].We used the robustness results of the meta-analysis to test whether liberal or stringent MCC could increase reproducibility and reduce false positive rates.

低表面能工质被广泛应用于各种工业和先进技术领域,如制冷剂喷雾冷却和微流控系统等,其润湿性和动力学行为的有效调控对提高分析过程的效率具有非常重要的作用.本文利用表面规则微孔的气流作用,调控低表面张力液滴的润湿行为,形成类超疏悬浮状态,并对该现象中液滴运动行为及润湿性变化规律开展研究.类超疏悬浮状态中,液滴的运动行为演变可以分为悬停、振荡、弹跳、脱离4个阶段,本文探究了弹跳阶段液滴重力势能与表面能之间的转换关系.类比Young\'s方程,提出了类超疏悬浮状态中的类接触角概念,用于研究液滴不同阶段的润湿行为
电化学还原CO2是一种有效的CO2转化及利用方法,但是由于CO2在电解质溶液中溶解度较低,限制了其电化学还原性能.为增加电极-溶液-CO2的三相反应界面,本文通过水热自生长的方法在碳布基底上制备SnO2纳米片催化剂,利用三甲氧基硅烷修饰电极使其表面具有疏水性,研究了疏水电极与亲水电极的微观形貌和元素价态,对比了疏水电极与亲水电极的表面浸润性、双电层电容、塔菲尔斜率和电化学阻抗,并在不同电位下进行了电化学还原性能测试.实验结果表明,与亲水电极相比,表面改性后的疏水电极具有更低的塔菲尔斜率和传质阻力,表现出更

对未来多年代际气候准确预测是气候变化研究的目标,也是当前气候领域的研究热点和极其困难的问题.截至目前,没有多年代际长期预测成功的实例报道,主要原因一是长期气候预测理论发展迟缓,二是足够长度的、精确的、高分辨率的、严格规范的气候代用指标十分缺乏.我们于2004年采用Caterpillar-SSA(毛毛虫-奇异谱分析法)方法对贺兰山地区树轮时间序列进行分解和趋势外推,预测了1998~2022年降水趋势.20多年后的今天,可以用气象观测数据对这个树轮预测结果进行客观评估,旨在探索更合适的年代际气候预测方法.评估
