RESUMO

Abstract Introduction: Plant functional traits are widely used to predict community productivity. However, they are rarely used to predict the performance (in terms of growth diameter, growth height, survival, and integral response index) of woody species planted in degraded soils. Objective: To evaluate the relationship between the functional traits and the performance of 25 woody species planted in disturbed soils affected by oil extraction activities in Ecuadorian Amazon. Methods: Eighteen permanent sampling plots were established and five 6-month-old seedlings of each 25 species were randomly planted in each plot (125 individuals per plot), at a distance of 4×4 m. Eight quantitative functional traits (leaf size, specific leaf area, leaf nitrogen concentration, leaf phosphorus concentration, leaf minimum unit, leaf dry matter content, stem specific density and leaf tensile strength) were determined for each species. Results: The woody species with high performance shows greater leaf size, specific leaf area and Stem Specific Density than those showing low performance. Leaf nitrogen concentration and stem specific density had a direct relationship with the integral response index. The leaf size, leaf phosphorus concentration, leaf dry matter content and leaf tensile strength showed a negative relationship with the integral response index. Conclusions: Our study demonstrated that the performance of woody species o disturbed soils can be predicted satisfyingly by leaf and stem functional traits, presumably because these traits capture most of environmental and neighborhood conditions.


Resumen Introducción: Los rasgos funcionales de las plantas han sido ampliamente utilizados para predecir la productividad (en términos de crecimiento en diámetro, crecimiento en altura, sobrevivencia e índice de respuesta integral) de las comunidades vegetales. Sin embargo, rara vez han sido utilizados para predecir el desempeño de las especies leñosas plantadas en suelos degradados. Objetivo: Evaluar la relación entre el desempeño y los rasgos funcionales de 25 especies leñosas plantadas en suelos afectados por actividades de extracción de petróleo en la Amazonía ecuatoriana. Métodos: Se establecieron 18 parcelas permanentes de muestreo y en cada parcela se sembraron aleatoriamente cinco plántulas de 6 meses de las 25 especies (125 individuos por parcela), a una distancia de 4×4 m. Se determinaron ocho rasgos funcionales (área foliar, área foliar específica, concentración de nitrógeno foliar, concentración de fósforo foliar, unidad mínima foliar, contenido foliar de materia seca, densidad específica del fuste y fuerza tensil foliar) de cada especie. Resultados: Las especies leñosas con alto desempeño presentaron mayor área foliar, área foliar específica y densidad específica del fuste que las especies de bajo desempeño. La concentración de nitrógeno foliar y la densidad específica del fuste mostraron una relación directa. El área foliar, la concentración de fósforo foliar, el contenido de materia seca foliar y la fuerza tensil foliar presentaron una relación inversa con el Índice de Respuesta Integral. Conclusión: Se demostró que el desempeño de las especies leñosas plantadas en suelos alterados puede predecirse satisfactoriamente por rasgos funcionales de hoja y de tallo, debido posiblemente a que los rasgos influyen en el crecimiento y supervivencia de las especies, y reflejan la mayoría de las condiciones ambientales.

RESUMO

  Background: The STarT (Subgrouping for Targeted Treatment) Back Screening Tool (SBST) is an established clinical evaluation tool that easily assesses the risk of chronic or refractory low back pain. This study aimed to examine the usefulness of acupuncture in patients with low back pain.  Methods: A total of 71 outpatients with low back pain who underwent acupuncture and moxibustion at the Center for Integrative Medicine, Tsukuba University of Technology, between 2019 and 2022 were included in this study, regardless of the specific medical condition causing the pain. Survey items included the SBST and lumbar pain intensity visual analog scale (VAS). Demographic factors and contents of acupuncture treatment were collected from the medical charts. The VAS score 4 weeks after the start of treatment was used as an index of clinical outcome and was analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) and hierarchical multiple regression analysis.  Results: Classification using the SBST at the first visit resulted in 36, 30, and 15 patients in the low-, medium-, and high-risk groups, respectively. Repeated-measures ANOVA showed statistically significant differences in the mean VAS values with respect to differences in time point (P < 0.01), group (P < 0.01), and interaction (P < 0.05). The VAS values after 4 weeks in the high-risk group were significantly higher than those in the other two groups (both P < 0.01). In the hierarchical multiple regression analysis, with VAS as the dependent variable, the relationship between SBST classification and VAS maintained a significant positive relationship in all models, including adjustments for interaction terms and patients’ background items. A simple slope analysis indicated that this relationship was more evident in patients with lower limb symptoms than in those without symptoms.  Conclusion: The SBST could be a simple and useful tool for predicting the clinical outcomes of acupuncture.

RESUMO

A Bateria de Provas de Raciocínio (BPR-5) é um instrumento bastante utilizado para avaliação da inteligência no Brasil, possuindo três formas: infantil (1º ao 6º ano do Ensino Fundamental), Forma A (7º ao 9º ano do Ensino Fundamental) e Forma B (Ensino Médio e Superior). Visando a possibilidade de comparar os resultados entre sujeitos que respondem a formas diferentes, o presente estudo objetivou: (a) calibrar os itens das três formas pelo modelo de Rasch, realizando a equalização por itens comuns de modo a obter uma escala equiparável para as três formas, (b) atualizar as normas expandindo a representatividade das amostras e produzindo-se normas para diferentes combinações de idade, escolaridade e sexo, (c) descrever padrões de desenvolvimento da inteligência a partir da escala, comum, produzida entre 6 e 52 anos. Dois estudos foram relatados, o primeiro sobre a calibração dos parâmetros segundo o modelo de Rasch indicando um bom ajuste ao modelo. O segundo estudo exemplificou a utilização de regressão múltipla para criação de normas para testes psicológicos, considerando as variáveis idade, escolaridade e sexo como preditoras dos escores na BPR-5. Essas três variáveis tiveram efeitos significativos explicando 8% (Raciocínio Abstrato), 13% (Raciocínio Verbal), 12% (Raciocínio Espacial), 8% (Raciocínio Numérico) e 22% (Raciocínio Mecânico).(AU)


The Reasoning Tests Battery (BPR-5) is widely used in Brazil for the assessment of intelligence. It has three different forms: children (1st to 6th grade of elementary school), Form A (7th to 9th grade of elementary school) and Form B (high school and higher education). This study describes the steps followed to create a common metric across the forms. It aimed to: (a) calibrate the items of the three forms using Rasch model, link items and equate subjects' scores across forms using the anchoring of common items method, (b) update the norms by expanding the representativeness of the samples by producing norms for different combinations of age, education and sex, and (c) describe the developmental patterns of the BPR-5 subtests across a wide age range, from 6 to 52 years. We present two studies, the first reporting the calibration of item and person parameters with the Rasch model and a good fit to the model. The second illustrated the use of multiple regression analysis to create norms for the psychological tests considering the variables age, education and gender as predictors of the BPR-5 scores. These three variables had significant effects explaining 8% (Abstract Reasoning), 13% (Verbal Reasoning), 12% (Spatial Reasoning), 8% (Numerical Reasoning) and 22% (Mechanical Reasoning) of the variance.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT: This study determined the meteorological variable that most contribute to the productivity of sugarcane stalks in the northwest and central regions of Rio Grande do Sul. The following sugarcane genotypes were used: UFSM XIKA FW, UFSM LUCI FW, UFSM PRETA FW, UFSM DINA FW, UFSM MARI FW, and IAC87-3396. The UFSM cultivars originate from a mutation process in the breeding program conducted at the Federal University of Santa Maria, Frederico Westphalen campus, and have low temperature tolerance. The productivity-associated morphological characters included in the models were average stem diameter, average stem number per meter of furrow, and average stem height. The following meteorological variables were used: minimum air temperature, precipitation, incident solar radiation, and accumulated thermal sum. Pearson's correlation, canonical correlations, and Stepwise regression were performed between morphological characters and meteorological variables: minimum air temperature had the greatest influence on sugarcane productivity in the studied regions, and accumulated thermal sum showed the highest correlation and contributed most to stem diameter and average stem height. Thus, the models indicated that the growth of sugarcane is positively associated with the accumulated thermal sum, and sugarcane can be cultivated at the studied regions.


RESUMO: O objetivo deste trabalho foi determinar a variável meteorológica com maior contribuição na produtividade de colmos de cana-de-açúcar na região noroeste e central do Rio Grande do Sul. Os genótipos de cana-de-açúcar utilizados foram: UFSM XIKA FW, UFSM LUCI FW, UFSM PRETA FW, UFSM DINA FW, UFSM MARI FW, IAC87-3396. As cultivares UFSM são provenientes do processo de mutação do programa de melhoramento da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, campus de Frederico Westphalen, e possuem tolerância a baixas temperaturas. Os caracteres morfológicos responsáveis pela produtividade utilizados nos modelos foram diâmetro médio de colmo, número médio de colmos por metro de sulco e estatura média de colmos. As variáveis meteorológicas utilizadas foram a temperatura mínima do ar, precipitação pluviométrica, radiação solar incidente e soma térmica acumulada. Foi realizada a correlação de Pearson, correlações canônicas e regressão de Stepwise entre os caracteres morfológicos e as variáveis meteorológicas, nos quais foi constado que a temperatura mínima do ar é a variável com maior influência na produtividade da cana-de-açúcar nas regiões estudadas e, que a soma térmica acumulada é a variável com maior correlação e contribuição no diâmetro de colmo e estatura média dos colmos. Desse modo, os modelos indicam que o crescimento da cana-de-açúcar responde de forma positiva a soma térmica acumulada, e as regiões em estudo apresentam potencial para o cultivo da cana-de-açúcar.

RESUMO

Objective To study the accuracy of Nolla method for age estimation of Northern Chinese Han children aged between 5.00 and 14.99 years based on original transformation tables and multiple regression model. Methods A total of 2 000 orthopantomographs (OPGs) were collected from the Hospital of Stomatology, Xi'an Jiaotong University, including 1 000 males and 1 000 females. Development stage of 7 left mandibular permanent teeth (except third molars) was assessed based on Nolla method, then age estimation was conducted through transformation tables and multiple regression model, respectively. Firstly, the development stage results of 7 permanent teeth were added up and the estimated age was obtained through the original transformation tables. Secondly, 80% of the samples (80 males and 80 females in each age group) were randomly selected from 2 000 OPGs as the train set. The chronological age of the selected patients was taken as the dependent variable, while gender and the development stage results of 7 permanent teeth were taken as the independent variable to establish multiple regression model. The remaining 20% of the samples were substituted into the model as the test set, to verify the accuracy of age estimation by multiple regression model. Results Mean chronological ages of males and females were 10.03±0.09 years and 10.01±0.09 years, respectively. The age estimated by original transformation tables showed an overestimation for males (0.18 years on average) and an underestimation for females (0.02 years on average), with mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.94 years and 0.97 years, respectively. While the results by multiple regression model showed that males were overestimated by 0.06 years on average and females were underestimated by 0.02 years on average. The MAE was 0.66 years and 0.77 years, respectively. Conclusion The Nolla method is suitable for age estimation of Northern Chinese Han children. Compared with the original transformation tables method, the multiple regression model is more accurate for age estimation.

RESUMO

The study was carried out in four different agro-climatic zones of Maharashtra. A typology was developed applying multivariate statistical techniques i.e. Cluster analysis (CA) to classify groups of farm households with similar farm characteristics into four homogenous clusters, (i) households possessing small landholding, a larger high yielding dairy stock with small goat flock size (37.5%), (ii) households having small landholding with a small stock of high yielding dairy animal and small goat flock size (39%), (iii) households having large landholding with large high yielding dairy stock and small flock size (13.5%) and (iv) households possessing small landholding with small high yielding dairy stock and large flock size (10%). An assessment in terms of awareness, knowledge and adoption of dairy technologies and goat production practices were carried out across the clusters which was found significantly high within the household of cluster 3 and 4. The overall adoption index was found to be 65.16 per cent across the whole clusters. Multiple regression analysis revealed that total SAU, flock size, occupation, innovative proneness, scientific orientation, awareness of technology and knowledge of technology contribute positively (P<0.01, P<0.05) to the adoption of technology. The coefficient of determination was found (R2 =0.66) across the whole clusters

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To study direct medical expense and its influential factors, and to provide empirical reference for medical expenses control of pulmonary embolism and the adjustment of anticoagulant drug reimbursement strategy. METHODS: Based on the national urban basic medical insurance data in 2014, the data of patients with pulmonary embolism were extracted by equidistant sampling method to form a sample database. According to related therapy information and expense information of pulmonary embolism patients in sample database, descriptive analysis was performed for demographic characteristics of patients (including gender, age, type of medical insurance, region, type of medical institution, etc.), direct medical expenses and direct medical expenses of patients with different anticoagulants, etc. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze potential influential factors for the medical expenses of patients. RESULTS: A total of 475 pulmonary embolism patients were included, a total of 1 090 visits were recorded, and the average length of stay was 12.37 days. The annual medical expense per capita of patients was 10 847.42 yuan (median was 4 113.00 yuan), hospitalization expense per capita was 19 056.30 yuan (median was 13 042.86 yuan), and outpatient expense per capita was 1 049.61 yuan (median was 418.70 yuan). Results of subgroup analysis showed that annual medical expense in eastern, central and western cities were 9 203.54, 16 931.99 and 15 891.21 yuan. Per capita annual medical expenses of patients in tertiary hospitals were the highest (11 733.40 yuan), followed by secondary hospitals, and the lowest was other medical related institutions. Among different anticoagulants treatment groups, the annual medical expense per capita (24 553.80 yuan) and annual drug expense per capita (12 088.96 yuan) were the highest in anticoagulant regimen of combined use of LMWH and UFH, while patients treated with warfarin alone had the lowest annual medical expense per capia (2 350.24 yuan) and annual drug expense per capita (1 163.67 yuan). The multiple linear regression showed that the factors affecting medical expense per visit were type of patient (inpatient or outpatient),type of medical institution and type of complications. CONCLUSIONS: Direct medical expense per capita of patients with pulmonary embolism is still high, and the economic burden of disease is still heavy. Patients with pulmonary embolism treated with combination of LMWH and UFH had the highest medical expense per capita. The types of visit, types of medical institutions and complications can influence medical expense of patients significantly.

RESUMO

A produção de biomassa de aveia voltada à elaboração de silagem de qualidade é dependente de elementos climáticos e nitrogênio sem ocorrência de acamamento. O objetivo do presente estudo é a definição da dose ideal do regulador de crescimento que possibilite, no máximo, 5% de acamamento de plantas de aveia, bem como a identificação das variáveis potenciais para composição do modelo de regressão linear múltipla com simulação da produtividade de biomassa à elaboração de silagem nas condições de uso do regulador, em reduzida, alta e muito alta fertilização com nitrogênio. O estudo foi conduzido em 2013, 2014 e 2015, em delineamento de blocos ao acaso, com quatro repetições em esquema fatorial 4x3, para doses de regulador (0, 200, 400 e 600mL ha-1) e doses de nitrogênio (30, 90 e 150kg ha-1), respectivamente. A dose de 495mL ha-1 de regulador se mostra eficiente na redução do acamamento de plantas de aveia em condição de reduzida, alta e muito alta fertilização com nitrogênio. A soma térmica, a precipitação, a radiação, a dose de regulador e o nitrogênio qualificam a composição do modelo de regressão linear múltipla, tornando eficiente a simulação da produtividade de biomassa da aveia para silagem ao longo do ciclo.(AU)


The production of oat biomass focused on the development of quality silage is dependent on climatic elements and nitrogen without lodging occurrence. The objective of the study is to define the optimal dose of growth regulator that allows a maximum of 5% oat plant lodging and identify potential variables for composition of multiple linear regression model with productivity simulation of biomass to the preparation of silage in the conditions of low, high and very high fertilization with nitrogen. The study was conducted in 2013, 2014, and 2015 in the randomized block design with four replications in a factorial 4x3, for regulator doses (0, 200, 400 and 600ml ha-1) and nitrogen doses (30, 90 and 150kg ha-1), respectively. The dose of 495mL ha-1 regulator is efficient in reducing the oat plant lodging in condition reduced, high, and very high fertilization with nitrogen. Thermal time, precipitation, radiation, regulator dose and nitrogen dose qualify the composition of the multiple linear regression model, making efficient the biomass oat productivity simulation for silage over the cycle.(AU)

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE :To introduce two commonly used algorithms for warfarin individualized medication——multiple regression analysis(MRA)and maximum a posterior Bayesian (MAPB), and provide reference for individualized medication of warfarin in clinical practice. METHODS: The principles of MRA and MAPB for warfarin individualized medication, as well as the decision support tools to realize MRA and MAPB, were introduced. The function of MAPB tool, including formulating an initial dosage regimen, adjusting the regimen and its application in special clinical situations, was described by five typical cases.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION :MLR is simple to calculate, however, it can only be used to formulate the initial dosage regimen and dose adjustment cannot be carried out, which limits it clinical application in a certain extent. The application of MAPB can not only develop individualized medication of warfarin and adjust dose according to international normalized ratio(INR) with satisfactory prediction performance, but also be applied in special cases with better flexibility, such as judging medication adherence and instructing withdrawal. It could serve as an effective decision support tool to be promoted vigorously, which has a promising prospect.

RESUMO

Objective To analyze the main characteristics of air pollution in Nanchang City, and discuss the correlation between air pollution exposure (especially PM2.5) and the development of pneumonia related intensive care unit (ICU) patients and their lag effect.Methods 2454 patients who lived in Nanchang City admitted to ICU of Jiangxi Provincial People's Hospital from January 1st, 2014 to December 31st, 2016 were enrolled. According to the diagnosis, the patients were divided into pneumonia group (156 cases) and non-pneumonia group (2298 cases). The general clinical characteristics of patients and air pollution concentration in Nanchang in the year between 2014-2016 were collected. Multiple regression model was used to analyze the influence of meteorological factors on the condition of ICU patients associated with pneumonia. Using odds ratio (OR), the correlation intensity of air pollution exposure and pneumonia related ICU patients' development was reflected, and the confidence level of association intensity was reflected by the 95% confidence interval (95%CI). The distribution lag nonlinear model (DLNM) was established to evaluate the effect of air mass parameters on the time lag effect.Results The results of air pollution analysis in Nanchang City in the year between 2014-2016 showed that the annual average concentration of carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) was low and maintained at the same level in the year between 2014-2016. The annual average concentration of CO and NO2 increased in the year between 2014-2016, but the average annual concentration of SO2 decreased rapidly in the year between 2014-2016, and the average annual concentration of PM2.5 tended to slow down after the year between 2014-2016. The annual average concentration of PM10 decreased in the year between 2014-2016, but continued to rise in the year between 2014-2016. The annual mean concentration of O3 showed a trend of continuous increase from the year between 2014-2016. The age of pneumonia group was generally higher than that of non-pneumonia group, most of them were male, and had higher expected mortality and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ) score. The average air temperature in the pneumonia group was lower than that in the non-pneumonia group on the day of entering the group, and the air pollutants such as PM2.5 and PM10 were significantly higher than those in the non-pneumonia group. The analysis of multiple regression models showed that PM2.5 and air temperature were significantly related to patients with ICU pneumonia on the day of entry (PM2.5:OR = 1.02, 95%CI =1.00-1.03,P < 0.05; air temperature:OR = 0.96, 95%CI = 0.92-0.98,P < 0.05), and the effect of PM2.5 on patients with ICU pneumonia could last for at least 5 days (OR = 1.04, 95%CI = 1.00-1.09,P < 0.05), and the effect disappeared until the 7th day. According to the analysis of the influence of different concentrations of PM2.5 on ICU pneumonia patients, when the PM2.5 concentration reached 200μg/m3, its effect on ICU pneumonia patients would last for 5 days (OR = 1.45, 95%CI = 1.07-1.76,P < 0.01).Conclusion PM2.5 and air temperature are significantly related to the condition of ICU patients with pneumonia, and the influence of high concentration of PM2.5 on ICU patients with pneumonia has a lag effect.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to determine predictor models of leaf area of ​​cassava from linear leaf measurements. The experiment was carried out in greenhouse in the municipality of Botucatu, São Paulo state, Brazil. The stem cuttings with 5-7 nodes of the cultivar IAC 576-70 were planted in boxes filled with about 320 liters of soil, keeping soil moisture at field capacity, monitored by puncturing tensiometers. At 80 days after planting, 140 leaves were randomly collected from the top, middle third and base of cassava plants. We evaluated the length and width of the central lobe of leaves, number of lobes and leaf area. The measurements of leaf areas were correlated with the length and width of the central lobe and the number of lobes of the leaves, and adjusted to polynomial and multiple regression models. The linear function that used the length of the central lobe LA = -69.91114 + 15.06462L and linear multiple functions LA = -69.9188 + 15.5102L + 0.0197726K - 0.0768998J or LA = -69.9346 + 15.0106L + 0.188931K - 0.0264323H are suitable models to estimate leaf area of ​​cassava cultivar IAC 576-70.

RESUMO

Finding association between molecular markers and agronomic traits provide an excellent tool for indirect selection of a trait of interest in the population. In this study, stepwise regression analysis was used to estimate associations between ISSR and RAPD markers with some agronomic traits in lemon balm ecotypes. The analysis of results revealed significant associations between the traits and some of the studied loci. For all the traits, more than one informative marker was detected. Totally,90informative markers, including 48 ISSR loci and 42 RAPD loci, were identified. The SA-R-10, UBC826-1, UBC812-9, UBC813-10, UBC825-4, OPA-01-15, OPC-04-7 and CS-56-8 markers or fragment showed a significant correlation with Essential oil percentage and controlled 99.8% of the phenotypic variation. These markers are relatively more reliable. Among the RAPD primers, special attention should be drawn to primer SA-R, which had the highest associated fragments with the traits including days for 50% flowering, number of branches per plant, fresh weight and dry weight. Some of ISSR and RAPD markers were associated with more than one trait in multiple regression analysis that may be due to pleiotropic effect of the linked quantitative trait locus on different traits or its linkage to different genes. These primers have been found useful for improved lemon balm.

Neste estudo, foi utilizada a análise de regressão stepwise para estimar associações entre marcadores ISSR e RAPD com algumas características agronômicas em ecótipos de erva cidreira. A análise dos resultados revelou associações significativas entre os traços e alguns dos loci estudados. Para todos os traços mais de um marcador informativo foi detectado. Foram identificados 90 marcadores informativos, incluindo 48 loci ISSR e 42 loci RAPD. Os marcadoresou fragmentos SA-R-10, UBC826-1, UBC812-9, UBC813-10, UBC825-4, OPA-01-15, OPC-04-7 e CS-56-8 mostraram uma correlação significativa com a percentagem de óleo essencial e controlaram 99,8% da variação fenotípica. Estes marcadores são considerados relativamente mais confiáveis. Entre os primers RAPD, destaca-se o primer SA-R, que apresentou os maiores fragmentos associados com as características, incluindo dias para 50% de floração, número de ramos por planta, peso fresco e peso seco. Alguns dos marcadores ISSR e RAPD foram associados a mais de um traço na análise de regressão múltipla que pode ser devido ao efeito pleiotrópico do locus de traço quantitativo ligado em diferentes traços ou sua ligação a diferentes genes. Estes iniciadores provaram ser úteis para o melhoramento da erva cidreira.

RESUMO

<p>Decreased adherence to medications among the elderly has become a problem in recent years. To overcome this problem, the dispensing of one-dose packages of medicines has been suggested. The purpose of this study was to survey elderly outpatients in a regional hospital at the Tokachi Development and Promotion Bureau and to analyze the factors that influence patients’ preference for a one-dose package medicine. The dispensation of one-dose package medication was observed in 20% of elderly outpatients. A correlation between the percentage of dispensed one-dose package medications and the number of agents was observed. Furthermore, dispensing rates of one-dose package medications increased with aging. Within the various departments analyzed, one-dose packaging rate was high in the Departments of Cardiology and Psychiatry. In this study, the correlation between residential municipalities of outpatients and one-dose package medications was examined. In the municipalities with a high rate of aged individuals and high average of household members, one-dose package medication rate was low. Multivariate logistic regression analysis confirmed these factors as significant. That one-dose packaging rates increased with the number of drugs and aging are consistent with the notion that one-dose package medications are designed to increase drug adherence among the elderly. Interestingly, one-dose package dispensing rate was low in areas with advanced aging. Because aging in Japan is expected to advance in the future, it is important to survey one-dose package dispensations.</p>

RESUMO

Epimedium is a widely used medicinal plants. Due to excessive use of wild resources and resource constraints, artificial cultivation is the only way to achieve sustainable use of resources. E. pseudowushannense is intended to achieve the first cultivated species, but plant production technology is not yet fully mature.The diurnal variation of photosynthetic and eco-physiological characteristics of E. pseudowushannense in different growing age was studied by the CI-340 Portable Photosynthesis System under natural conditions. The net photosynthetic rate (Pn), stomatal conductance (C), intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci), photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), relative humidity (RH), air temperature (Ta), apparent mesophyll conductance (ALMC), transpiration rate (E), leaf temperature (Tl), water use efficiency (WUE) and other photosynthetic physiological factors and environmental factors were measured. The obtained data was analyzed by correlation analysis, path analysis and stepwise multiple-regression analysis to explore the relationship between net photosynthetic rate and physiological and ecological factors. The results show that: ①The daily variation of the Pn, E, ALMC, C of E. pseudowushannense in different growing age took on"two peak type", the Pn was with an obvious midday depression phenomenon at noon.②The Pn, ALMC and C of annuals' were significantly higher than biennial or three-year; but the Ci was basically a three-year > biennial> annual.③The correlation analysis, path analysis and stepwise regression analysis showed that ALMC, Ci, Ta might played important role in the Pn and ranked as ALMC>Ci>Ta.

RESUMO

The purpose of this study is to examine the predictive role of self- compassion on entrapment. Participants were 338 university students (185 women, 153 men; M age = 20.5 yr.). In this study, the Self-compassion Scale and the Entrapment Scale were used. The relationships between self-compassion and entrapment were examined using correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. In correlation analysis, self-kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness factors of self-compassion were found negatively and self-judgment, isolation, and over-identification factors of self-compassion were found positively related to entrapment. According to regression results, entrapment was predicted positively by self-judgment, isolation, and over-identification. Further self-kindness and common humanity predicted entrapment in a negative way. Self-compassion has explained 50% of the variance in entrapment. The results were discussed in the light of the related literature and dependent recommendations to the area were given.


El propósito de este estudio es examinar el papel predictivo de la auto-compasión sobre el atrapamiento. Los participantes fueron 338 estudiantes universitarios (185 mujeres, 153 hombres;. M edad = 20,5 años). En este estudio, se utilizó la Escala de Auto-compasión y la Escala de Atrapamiento. Las relaciones entre la auto-compasión y atrapamiento fueron examinados utilizando análisis de correlación y análisis de regresión múltiple. En el análisis de correlación, la auto-bondad, la humanidad común, y los factores de la atención plena de la auto-compasión se encontraron negativamente relacionados con el auto-juicio. Se encontró que el aislamiento y la sobre-identificación de factores de auto-compasión se relacionan positivamente con la trampa. De acuerdo con resultados de la regresión, el atrapamiento se predijo positivamente por el auto-juicio, el aislamiento y sobre-identificación. Además la bondad propia y la humanidad común predijeron el atrapamiento de una manera negativa. La auto-compasión explica el 50% de la varianza en la trampa. Los resultados se discuten a la luz de la literatura relacionada y las recomendaciones dependen del área particular.

RESUMO

The degree of parasite aggregation is determined by a number of factors that are not well understood. In total, 3,746 fish from 73 species and their parasites were analyzed to determine associations between the degree of aggregation by taxon and specific characteristics of the fish. A multiple linear regression (95% confidence interval - CI) was used to show that in most taxa, the degree of parasite aggregation was significantly higher in freshwater fish and schooling fish but varied according to taxon in relation to gender, habitat and feeding habits. Parasite aggregations were also significantly increased in fish with a large number of parasitic larvae and greater body length in all evaluated taxa. Because the coefficients of determination of the models were lower than 60% for all taxa, other factors may be involved in parasite aggregation. Conversely, marked significance was observed for the tested variables in relation to taxon dependence, which indicates that additional studies should be performed for these factors using comprehensive databases with larger samples per parasite species.


O nível de agregação parasitária é determinado por um conjunto de fatores não muito bem elucidados. Foram analisados 3.746 peixes pertencentes a 73 espécies e seus respectivos parasitos, com o objetivo de verificar a associação entre o nível de agregação por táxon e algumas características dos peixes. Por meio da técnica de regressão linear múltipla (IC 95%), observou-se que o nível de agregação de parasitos foi significativamente maior em peixes dulcícolas e formadores de cardume, na maioria dos táxons, mas variou conforme o táxon em relação ao sexo, o hábitat e o hábito alimentar. A agregação parasitária também aumentou significativamente em peixes com maior proporção de larvas parasitas e com maior comprimento do corpo em todos os táxons avaliados. Tendo em vista que os coeficientes de determinação dos modelos para todos os táxons foram inferiores a 60%, outros fatores podem estar envolvidos na agregação de parasitos. Por outro lado, as variáveis testadas assumem importância diferenciada na dependência do táxon, sinalizando para a necessidade de se continuar pesquisando esses fatores em bancos de dados mais abrangentes e com amostras maiores por espécies de parasitos.

RESUMO

There are few studies that have examined the role of self-compassion in the context of social life, while self-compassion appears to enhance interpersonal relationship skills. The purpose of this study is to examine the predictive role of self-compassion on social safeness. Participants were 401 university students (213 women, 188 men; M age= 20.5 yr.). In this study, the Self-compassion Scale and the Social Safeness and Pleasure Scale were used. The relationships between self-compassion and social safeness were examined using correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. In the correlation analysis, self-kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness factors of self-compassion were found to be positively related, and self-judgment, isolation, and over-identification factors of self-compassion were found to be negatively related to social safeness. According to regression results, social safeness was predicted positively by mindfulness, self-kindness, and common humanity. Further isolation predicted social safeness in a negative way. The regression model explained 28% of the variance in social safeness. Together, the findings illuminate the importance of self-compassion on social adjustment. The results are discussed in the light of the related literature.

El propósito de este estudio es examinar el papel predictivo de la autocompasión sobre la seguridad social. Los participantes eran estudiantes universitarios 401 (213 mujeres, 188 hombres; Edad M = 20,5 años.). En este estudio, se utilizaron la escala de la autocompasión y la Seguridad Social y la escala de placer. Las relaciones entre la seguridad social y la autocompasión fueron examinadas usando análisis de correlación y análisis de regresión múltiple. En el análisis de correlación se consideraron positivos los factores de la autocompasión de la auto-amabilidad, la humanidad común y la atención plena mientras que el autojuicio, el aislamiento y los factores de identificación excesiva de autocompasión fueron considerados negativamente en relación con la seguridad social. Según los resultados de regresión, la seguridad social fue considerada positivamente por concienciación, uno auto-bondad y humanidad común. Un aislamiento adicional predijo la seguridad social de una manera negativa. El modelo de regresión explica el 28% de la varianza en seguridad social. Juntos, los resultados iluminan la importancia de la autocompasión en el ajuste social. Los resultados se discuten a la luz de la literatura relacionada.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the ultrasonic extraction technology of salidroside in Rhodiola rosea. METHODS:With the content of salidroside as the index,L16(45)orthogonal test was designed to observe the effects of 4 factors including the mass fraction of ethanol,solid-liquid ratio,extraction time and ultrasonic power on the content of salidroside in R. rosea extraction solu-tion. By using Matlab 6.5 software,mathematical simulation of ultrasonic extraction process of salidroside was made with the data of orthogonal test. Multiple regression analysis method was adopted to optimize the ultrasonic extraction technology of salidroside, and then the extraction result of optimal technology and that of traditional heating reflux technology were compared. RESULTS:The optimal extraction technology of salidroside was as follows as ethanol mass fraction of 77%,solid-liquid ratio of 1∶34 (g∶ml),extraction time of 34 min,ultrasonic power of 237 W(ultrasonic frequency of 40 kHz). Under the above-mentioned condi-tions,the content of salidroside was up to 0.982 4%,close to the predicted value of 0.989 4%. Compared to heating reflux meth-od,the ultrasonic method has similar content of salidroside but extraction time was shortened by 62.2%. CONCLUSIONS:The ul-trasonic extraction method for extracting the salidroside in R. rosea is simple,requires shorter time,and giving rise to higher extrac-tion rate.

RESUMO

Objective To explore the rule of traditional Chinese medicine in treating tinnitus based on literature and Logistic multiple regression analysis. Methods Articles about tinnitus treatment using traditional Chinese medicine were searched in several databases, i.e. CNKI (1984-2013), VIP (1989-2013), CBM (1990-2013), and PubMed (1984-2013), and medication frequency was analyzed. Then, models for tinnitus medication were established through metrological method and Logistic multiple regression. Results The common prescriptions with highest frequency usage were Liuwei Dihuang Pill, Longdan Xiegan Decoction, and Erlong Zuoci Pill. Corni Fructus, Psoraleae Fructus, and Lycii Fructus were commonly used for kidney-deficiency type of tinnitus;Astragali Radix, Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, and Codonopsis Radix were commonly used for the spleen-qi-deficiency type of tinnitus;Gardeniae Fructus, Gentianae Radix et Rhizoma, and Cyperi Rhizoma were commonly used for the liver-qi-dysfunction type of tinnitus;Pinelliae Rhizoma, Aurantii Fructus Immaturus, and Stephaniae Tetrandrae Radix were commonly used for the phlegm-fire disturbance type of tinnitus;Forsythiae Fructus, Menthae Haplocalycis Herba, and Mori Cortex were commonly used for the wind-fire-invasion type of tinnitus. Conclusion Analysis of medication frequency and Logistic multiple regression analysis can provide evidence and reference for the treatment of tinnitus and syndrome differentiation.
