History and development direction of iterative upgrading of deep coalbed methane reservoir reconstruction technology：Taking the Daji Block in the eastern margin of the Ordos Basin... by Fengyin XU, Huaibin ZHEN, Shuguang LI, Feng WANG, Lei ZHANG, Yubin WANG, Weichu YU, Weiping ZHU, Borui XU, Yun YANG, Haifeng ZHAO, Kunsen BAI

“…Practical application of finely tailored fracturing designs based on geological characteristics has yielded remarkable results.However, the paper identifies five key challenges and areas for improvement in deep coal reservoir stimulation: High water consumption and difficulties in managing flowback fluids during ultra-large-scale fracturing; The need for breakthroughs in intelligent fracturing technologies; Immaturity of collaborative fracturing methods; The urgent requirement to establish fracturing technology systems for deep, medium-to-low-rank coal seams; Incomplete functionality of fracturing fluids.To address these challenges, six development directions are proposed:① Advancing water-reducing fracturing techniques; ② Conducting research on fishbone horizontal wells combined with matrix acidizing for large-scale water-reduction and production enhancement; ③ Expanding the application of artificial intelligence in intelligent fracturing and post-fracturing evaluation; ④ Developing and implementing collaborative fracturing techniques to optimize well-to-fracture network integration; ⑤ Strengthening research and development and application of stimulation technologies for deep, medium-to-low-rank coal reservoirs; ⑥ Innovating new fracturing materials to further reduce costs, improve efficiency, and enhance recovery rates for deep CBM.…”

Protecting the Autonomy of Patients with Severe Mental Illness Through Psychiatric Advance Directive Peer-Facilitation by Nicholas Karasik

“…Guiding Distributive Justice: Capability Theory Capability theory is an account of justice opportunity that places a fundamental moral significance on individuals' ability to reach proper functioning and well-being.[52] Whether or not an individual can make use of a particular set of resources and convert them into a state of functioning depends on personal, sociopolitical, and environmental conditions ("conversion factors").[53] In this sense, liberty is not the absence of restraint from others or institutions but the freedom achieved through capability-enhancing relationships.[54] Within the context of bioethics, capability theory shifts focus toward creating circumstances by which individuals can direct their lives as they choose.[55] Acting in accordance with the principle of beneficence, peer-support specialists could enhance the capability of patients to be self-determined and autonomous, which would promote patient well-being and empowerment.[56] Those living with SMI, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, are among the most disadvantaged in society, experiencing social and economic hardship related to their illness.[57] These individuals are often feared and rejected by others, which increases depression, lowers self-esteem, and engenders feelings of social isolation.[58] Compounding their challenges, especially for those facing structural inequalities, is insufficient access to appropriate mental health services supporting recovery.[59] Capability theory provides a sound justification for the resource distribution necessary to create and sustain a thriving network of peer-support specialists, to which those with SMI currently do not have access. …”
