It is difficult to identify suspected cases of atypical patients with coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19),and data on severe or critical patients are scanty.This retrospective study presents the clinical,labora-tory,and radiological profiles,treatments,and outcomes of atypical COVID-19 patients without respira-tory symptoms or fever at onset.The study examined ten atypical patients out of 909 severe or critical patients diagnosed with COVID-19 in Wuhan Union Hospital West Campus between 25 January 2020 and 10 February 2020.Data were obtained from the electronic medical records of severe or critical patients without respiratory symptoms or fever at onset.Outcomes were followed up to discharge or death.Among 943 COVID-19 patients,909(96.4%)were severe or critical type.Of the severe or critical patients,ten(1.1%)presented without respiratory symptoms or fever at admission.The median age of the ten participants was 63 years(interquartile range(IQR):57-72),and seven participants were men.The median time from symptom onset to admission was 14 d(IQR:7-20).Eight of the ten patients had chronic diseases.The patients had fatigue(n=5),headache or dizziness(n=4),diarrhea(n=5),anor-exia(n=3),nausea or vomiting(n=3),and eye discomfort(n=1).Four patients were found to have lym-phopenia.Imaging examination revealed that nine patients had bilateral pneumonia and one had unilateral pneumonia.Eventually,two patients died and eight were discharged.In the discharged patients,the median time from admission to discharge lasted 24 d(IQR:13-43).In summary,some sev-ere or critical COVID-19 patients were found to have no respiratory symptoms or fever at onset.All such atypical cases should be identified and quarantined as early as possible,since they tend to have a prolonged hospital stay or fatal outcomes.Chest computed tomography(CT)scan and nucleic acid detection should be performed immediately on close contacts of COVID-19 patients to screen out those with atypical infections,even if the contacts present without respiratory symptoms or fever at onset.

为了开展实时高温下及加热冷却后岩石动态力学性质的对比研究,利用自行设计的加热装置结合SHPB系统对两种温度状态砂岩的动态拉伸特性进行试验研究,处理温度为常温(25℃)~600℃共7组.结果表明:砂岩的率效应在两种温度状态下都存在,热处理后的砂岩拉伸强度除100℃外都比常温状态小,且随着热处理温度的增大,拉伸强度减小,温度会影响试样的破坏形态.高温下砂岩的拉伸强度除600℃外都比常温状态大,且拉伸强度随着温度的升高先增大后减小,加载率对破坏模式起主导作用.高温下的热膨胀作用会抑制裂纹相互连接,使得岩石结构更

为了控制石灰石生产加工过程中岩粉的产生及分析其成因,利用邦德功指数和研磨性分析了石灰岩的主要特性,结合灰岩粉的主要来源,提出了针对性的岩粉控制措施,并通过灰岩矿爆破试验进行了验证.研究结果表明:石灰石相较于其他岩石更易产生岩粉,其主要来自于爆破形成的粉碎区,机械破碎中的矿石整形,钻孔岩屑及软弱夹层;通过优化爆破破碎过程,采用空气间隔不耦合装药、现场混装装药和合理优化爆破参数等方式,可以控制粉碎区大小,使爆破级配更为均匀,从而减少爆破岩粉.
