    Effect on thermal efficiency of heat storage material on the surface of Stirling engine displacer pistons

    In Stirling engines, in order to improve thermal efficiency, it is necessary to increase the amount of heat transfer through regenerators. Previous research has found that engine speed reduction improves thermal efficiency. However, it was theorized that the regenerator heat storage capacity is insufficient because there are limitations to the improvement in thermal efficiency that can be achieved by engine speed reduction. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to improve the thermal efficiency and to confirm engine speed change when the thermal efficiency is maximized through increased regenerator heat storage capacity in Stirling engines. To this end, engine performance testing was performed using an experimental Stirling engine and adding heat storage material to the regenerator. The results showed no confirmed engine speed change, but did confirm improved thermal efficiency. Furthermore, it was shown that the thermal conductivity of the heat storage material used in the regenerator significantly affects thermal efficiency.departmental bulletin pape

    Prognostic Value of Combined Tumor Marker and Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) Score in Colorectal Cancer Patients

    [Background] Nutritional status is strongly associated with prognosis in cancer patients. Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score is a nutritional marker based on serum albumin, cholesterol, and total lymphocyte count. We investigated the prognostic significance of a combination of the tumor marker carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and CONUT score (T-CONUT) in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. [Methods] A total of 522 patients who underwent surgery for CRC at our hospital were retrospectively enrolled in this study. [Results] Patients were divided into groups based on the results of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis as follows: CONUThigh (CONUT score ? 3) and CONUTlow (CONUT score < 3), and CEAlow (< 5 ng/mL) and CEAhigh (? 5 ng/mL). The 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of patients in the CONUTlow and CONUThigh groups were 76.0% and 53.9%, respectively (P < 0.0001), and in the CEAlow and CEAhigh groups were 80.7% and 47.6%, respectively (P < 0.0001). Regarding T-CONUT, the 5-year OS rates of patients with CEAlow/CONUTlow, CEAlow/CONUThigh, CEAhigh/CONUTlow, and CEAhigh/CONUThigh were 84.7%, 69%, 55.3%, and 36.1%, respectively (P < 0.0001). Multivariate analysis identified T-CONUT score as an independent prognostic indicator in CRC patients. [Conclusion] T-CONUT may be a useful tool for predicting prognosis in CRC patients.journal articl
