Thus modern economy hasclose link with finance, and the One Belt and One Roadis a new exploration of social economy. If the moderneconomy wants better development, One Belt and OneRoad construction should be brought into economicdevelopment. And it has an impact on trade financingand outward investment of enterprises. Therefore,if it wants to be carried out smoothly, the financialmanagement mechanism should be improved. In thispaper, a concrete analysis of the identification andsupervision of financial risks will be made under OneBelt and One Road construction.展开更多

Published data on the association of XRCCl Arg399GIn polymorphism with glioma susceptibility have generated conflicting results. This study is designed to precisely estimate the relationship. DATA RETRIEVAL: A computer-based online retrieval of Medline, EMBASE, OVID, Sciencedirect, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure was performed to search papers regarding association of XRCC1 Arg399GIn polymorphisms with glioma published up to April 2012. SELECTION CRITERIA: Two investigators selected data independently. Meta analysis was then performed for the selected studies using STATA 11.0 software after strict selection. Heterogeneity test, sensitivity analysis and publication bias assessments were then conducted. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Association of XRCCl Arg399GIn polymorphism with glioma risk. RESULTS: A total of nine case-controlled studies comprising 2 326 cases and 3 610 controls were selected for final analysis. The overall data failed to indicate a significant association of XRCCl Arg399GIn polymorphism with glioma risk (Gin/Gin vs. Arg/Arg: odds ratio (OR) = 1.11; 95% confidence interval (Cl) = 0.94-1.31; dominant model: OR = 1.06; 95%C/= 0.95-1.18; recessive model: OR = 1.04; 95%C/= 0.81-1.34). However, subgroup analysis regarding ethnicity showed an increased risk among Asians (Gin/Gin vs. Arg/Arg OR = 1.40; 95%C/= 1.10-1.78; recessive model: Caucasians or mixed ethnicities. OR = 1.70; 95%Cl = 1.17-2.46; dominant mode OR = 1.46; 95%C/= 1.04-2.05) but not CONCLUSION: XRCCl Arg399GIn polymorphism might modify the susceptibility to glioma among Asians but not Caucasians. Further large and well-designed studies are needed to confirm this conclusion.展开更多

After quality assessment using Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and data extraction by two independent authors, the overall and subgroup meta-analyses were performed and publication bias were examined using the Comprehensive Meta-Analysis V2 software. Potential publication bias was assessed using visual inspection of the funnel plots, Egger linear regression test, and trims and fill method.RESULTS: Finally 38 relevant case-control studies were identified, involving 4950 CHD patients and 5490 controls. Eleven studies were rated low quality and 27 were high quality. Based on random-effects, a significant association was identified between PD and CHD(OR 3.79, 95%CI: 2.23-6.43, P < 0.001, I2 = 98.59%), and sensitivity analysis showed that this result was robust. Subgroup analyses according to adjusted/unadjusted ORs, source of control, methodological quality, end point, assessment of PD/CHD, and ethnicity also indicated a significant association. Publication bias was detected, and the estimated OR including the "missing" studies did not substantially differ from our estimate with adjustment for missing studies(OR 4.15, 95%CI: 2.62-6.54, P < 0.001).CONCLUSION: Based on the meta-analysis, PD is probably associated with CHD risk independently and significantly.展开更多

Changbai, a well-known tourist attraction near the North Korean-Chinese border, are assessed. This study is divided into two parts, namely, landslide hazard zonation and risk assessment. The 1992 Anbalagan and Singh method of landslide hazard zonation (LHZ) was modified and used in this area. In this way, an Associative Analysis Method was used in representative areas to get a measure for controlling factors (slope gradient, relative relief, vegetation, geology, discontinuity development, weak layer thickness and ground water). For the membership degree of factor to slope failure, the middle range of limited values was used to calculate LHZ. Based on an estimation of the potential damage from slope failure, a reasonable risk assessment map was obtained using the relationship of potential damage and probable hazard to aid future planning and prediction and to avert loss of life.展开更多

The adoption of a simplified estimation model, presented here, nonetheless allowed achieving results in good accordance with those provided by previous, more rigorous studies at the Province of Bergamo. A following analysis has also been performed to estimate ski lifts, urban areas, power lines, highways, railroads and roads at possible risk. This is a work in progress, since further development has already been taken into account to enrich the risk model with more parameters describing land morphology and meteorology. These results will then be used to simulate accidents and to estimate the shortest routes for rescuers. Finally, the development of a geo-app for mobile devices could become a very useful and fast tool for avalanche risk areas information.展开更多

The subject has been and still is largely studied by many researchers with the aid of rigorous mathematical/statistical analysis tools. This work follows some procedures carried out by other studies, but at the end it has been decided to adopt a simple, fast and not rigorous way to find a solution. A following analysis, on the higher risk areas identified, has also been performed to test their reliability, allowing achieving satisfactory results. It has been planned to study the risk model more thoroughly, by taking into account other triggering causes for landslide susceptibility and to try also a rigorous approach, so as to get a better idea of the results achieved so far and how to improve them.展开更多

Aim: To assess the efficacy of implementing a cardiovascular risk CPG based on an educational method involving opinion leaders, and the habitual method of dissemination among primary healthcare teams. Design and Setting: Controlled, blinded, community intervention trial randomised by clusters. Methods: 21 primary healthcare centres were randomly assigned to either the intervention arm (n = 11) or the control arm (n = 10). The study subjects were patients aged ≥45 years assigned to the centres. The overall impact of the intervention was measured as the difference between the increase in the proportion of patients whose medical records showed the recording of all the variables necessary to calculate cardiovascular risk in both arms. Analyses were performed with Generalized Lineal Model on an intention-to-treat basis. Results: 917 subjects were included at the beginning of the trial (437 in the intervention arm and 480 in the control arm). 826 subjects were included in the final evaluation (436 in the intervention group and 390 in the control arm). At the end of the trial, the recording of the variables necessary for the calculation of the cardiovascular risk in the intervention group had increased more than in the control group (difference between increases 7.49% (95% CI 4.62 - 10.35)) after adjusting for confounding variables. Conclusions: Compared to the habitual method of dissemination, the implementation of this CPG using an educational method involving opinion leaders, improved the recording of the variables needed to calculate patients’ cardiovascular risk.展开更多
