“…Hydraulic system mainly comprises a hydraulic drive unit, a hydraulic power unit and connecting tubes [9]. At present, the hydraulic system has such shortcomings as overheating hydraulic power system, large size and mass, leakage and high energy consumption due to technical weaknesses and component limitations [10]. The hydrostatic drive is a drive mode with a rather complicated but compact structure.…”

Exoskeleton robots are wearable devices designed to mimic the skeletal mechanisms of insects and humans Enhancing users body functioning. In recent years, exoskeleton robot has become one of the hot spots in military and medical fields. In the process of exoskeleton robot research and development, how to achieve lightweight exoskeleton robot design is the goal of many research and development teams. Lightweight design is of significant importance in the development of exoskeleton robots since it can increase their efficiency and portability. With the improvement of modern processing technology, the lightweight technology of exoskeleton robot is becoming more and more mature. This paper summarizes the mature and promising lightweight technology of exoskeleton robot at present. In this paper, based on existing exoskeleton robots, the lightweight technology of these robots is analysed and reviewed in terms of their drive devices, power supply, structures and materials, and future development trends of the technology are suggested. This paper offers a reference the lightweight design of exoskeleton robot.

“…As regards the practice of interpretation of WTO agreements, the Appellate Body in Venezuela, Brazil v. United States, Gasoline Standards in Violation of National Treatment, made it clear that the provisions of Article 31 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (VCLT) have acquired the status of customary or general international law of treaty interpretation. [5]According to this article, a treaty is to be interpreted in good faith in accordance with the ordinary meaning to be given to its terms in their context and in the light of the object and purpose of the treaty. However, as the text of the public morality clause itself does not further explain "public morality", it can only be generally understood as some norms that exist in a particular society and serve as value judgments and guidance for behaviour, and it remains unclear which norms should be included in the category of public morality.…”

On the Public Morality Exception Rule Under the WTO: The Case of China-US Cultural Products Market Access as an Example

As the first of all exceptions in the GATT and GATS agreements, the public morals exception has been invoked by many countries in practice to justify their trade restrictive measures. The WTO rulings in the US Gaming case and the US-China Cultural Products Market Access case have made important contributions to the development of the public morality exception, but the concept of "public morality" and the extraterritorial effects of this rule have not been clarified. By considering these issues, the article proposes to adopt a "restricted domestic approach" to the definition and application of the public morality exception rule and to strictly limit the extraterritorial effects of the rule. This paper uses the research methods of comparative study and case study.

“…In the early 1950s, VL was widely prevalent in China, mainly in 16 provinces located north of the Yangtze River [ 5 ], and it is known as one of the five most serious parasitic diseases. There were approximately 530,000 patients who were distributed throughout more than 680 counties in China in 1951, and the incidence rate ranged from 10/100,000 to 500/100,000 in different epidemic areas [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 ]. The endemic areas have been classified into three types: anthroponotic visceral leishmaniasis (AVL), mountain-type zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis (MT-ZVL), and desert-type zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis (DT-ZVL) [ 10 , 11 ] ( Figure 1 ).…”

Reemergence of Visceral Leishmaniasis in Henan Province, China

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) was widely prevalent in Henan Province in the 1950s. Through active efforts by the government, there were no local cases reported from 1984 to 2015. In 2016, local VL cases reoccurred, and there was an increasing trend of VL cases in Henan Province. To provide a scientific control of VL, an investigation was conducted in Henan Province from 2016 to 2021. The data from VL cases were obtained from the Disease Surveillance Reporting System of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The rK39 immunochromatographic test (ICT) and PCR assay were performed among high-risk residents and all dogs in the patients’ village. ITS1 was amplified, sequenced, and subjected to phylogenetic analyses. A total of 47 VL cases were reported in Henan Province during 2016–2021. Of the cases, 35 were local, and they were distributed in Zhengzhou, Luoyang, and Anyang. The annual average incidence was 0.008/100,000, showing an upward trend year by year (χ2 = 3.987, p = 0.046). Their ages ranged from 7 months to 71 years, with 44.68% (21/47) in the age group of 0–3 years and 46.81% (22/47) in the age group ≥15 years. The cases occurred throughout the year. The high-risk populations were infants and young children (age ≤3), accounting for 51.06% (24/47), followed by farmers at 36.17% (17/47). The ratio of males to females was 2.13:1. The positive rates of rK39 ICT and PCR were 0.35% (4/1130) and 0.21% (1/468) in the residents. The positive rates of rK39 ICT and PCR were 18.79% (440/2342) and 14.92% (139/929) in the dogs. The ITS1 amplification products in the patients and positive dogs were sequenced. The homology between the target sequence and Leishmania infantum was more than 98%. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that the patients and the positive dogs were infected by the same type of Leishmania, which was consistent with the strains in the hilly endemic areas in China. This paper showed that patients and domestic dogs were infected by the same type of L. infantum and that the positive rate in dogs was relatively high in Henan Province. Because the measures of patient treatment and culling of infected dogs were not effective in reducing VL incidence in Henan Province, it is urgent to develop new approaches for the control of VL, such as wearing insecticide-impregnated collars on dogs, treating the positive dogs, spraying insecticide for sandflies control, and improving residents’ self-protection awareness to prevent the further spread of VL in Henan Province.
