SPEI-Based Spatiotemporal Analysis of Drought in Haihe River Basin from 1961 to 2010 by Meijian Yang, Denghua Yan, Yingdong Yu, Zhiyong Yang

“…The ratios that the influencing area of drought, light drought, moderate drought, severe drought, and extreme drought account for the whole HRB area are increasing with gradients of 0.64%/a, 0.18%/a, 0.31%/a, 0.14%/a, and 0.01%/a, respectively, and (2) there is a climate break point which occurred in 1990; after the comparison of the drought happening probability between 1961 and 1990 and between 1991 and 2010, all degrees of drought occurrence probability have a remarkable rising trend, and the drought concentrating regions moved from the north HRB to the central HRB.…”

Retrospective study of long-term outcomes of enzyme replacement therapy in Fabry disease: Analysis of prognostic factors. by Maarten Arends, Marieke Biegstraaten, Derralynn A Hughes, Atul Mehta, Perry M Elliott, Daniel Oder, Oliver T Watkinson, Frédéric M Vaz, André B P van Kuilenburg, Christoph Wanner, Carla E M Hollak

“…Of other cardiovascular risk factors, hypertension significantly predicted the risk for clinical events. In conclusion, besides increasing age, male sex and classical phenotype, faster disease progression while on enzyme replacement therapy is predicted by renal function, proteinuria and to a lesser extent cardiac fibrosis and hypertension.…”

Bioimpedance as an alternative tool for subjective, visual scoring of a prevalent ham quality defect by Abie Sisay Mebre, Suliga Paweł, Egelandsdal Bjørg, Münch Daniel

“…This was close to the error describing the subjective bias of visual scoring, more specifically the prediction error between the two observers (0.85). In all, Py showed the strongest correlation among instrument-based quality tests and alone may be used for predicting pork ham structural defects, i.e., as an instrument-based alternative for subjective, visual scoring. …”

Image spam identification method based on gray-gradient co-occurrence matrix by Bing FENG, Zhi-tang LI, Gang-lu HUA

“…In order to avoid the detection of the spam system based on text,more and more spammers have embedded text information into the image.An image spam identification method based on gray-gradient co-occurrence matrix (GGCM) was proposed to detect image spam effectively.The feature of image was extracted through GGCM firstly,and then LS-SVM was used to do classification.The test results show that this method has higher classification accuracy and better real-time performance…”

The influence of previous preterm birth with singleton pregnancy on the risk of recurrence in subsequent twin pregnancy: a meta-analysis by Pinghua Shen, Wenjun Wu, Yehui Jiang

“…Our results revealed a significantly elevated risk of subsequent preterm twin births associated with prior preterm singleton births at <37 weeks (OR, 2.94; 95% CI, 1.99–4.33; p < .001), <34 weeks (OR, 1.89; 95% CI, 1.67–2.14; p < .001) and <32 weeks (OR, 2.51; 95% CI, 1.58–3.99; p < .001), without heterogeneity in the included studies.Conclusions Our systematic analysis indicates a consistent and statistically significant association between a history of preterm singleton births and preterm twin births at various gestational ages. …”

Investigation of the Design Method of Worm-gear Hob by Chen Ningxin

“…In comparison to the industrial countries,our design principle and approach of wormgear hobs are not completed.There are no clear and accurate equations of worm-gear hob design,so do equations of machine settings of hob after re-sharpening.The basic principles of worm-gear hob design is presented,equations of hob size increase and machine settings of hob after re-sharpening based on the equations used in America gear industry are introduced,and finally,the error distribution between theoretical and hobbed tooth surfaces of worm-gears are analyzed.All provide the advanced technology of worm-gear hob design and manufacturing worm-gears for our gear industry.…”
