First, by using Mathematica, a spherical symmetric solution of the field equation of gravitational gauge field is obtained, which is just the traditional Schwarzschild solution. Combining the principle of gauge covariance and Newton＇s second law of motion, the equation of motion of a mass point in gravitational field is deduced. Based on the spherical symmetric solution of the field equation and the equation of motion of a mass point in gravitational field, we can discuss classical tests of gauge theory of gravity, including the deflection of light by the sun, the precession of the perihelia of the orbits of the inner planets and the time delay of radar echoes passing the sun. It is found that the theoretical predictions of these classical tests given by gauge theory of gravity are completely the same as those given by general relativity.展开更多

Any result of the space-time geometry cannog be directly applied to gauge theory of gravity. In gauge theory of gravity, based on the viewpoint of the coupling between the spin and gravitational field, an equation of motlon of the spin is deduced. In the post Newtonian approximation, it is proved that this equation gives the same result as that of the equation of parallel transport. So, in the post Newtonian approximation, gauge theory of gravity gives out the same prediction on the precession of orbiting gyroscope as that of general relativity.展开更多

Methods： A total of 100 MG patients were interviewed for the field testing. Another 56 MG patients were selected and assessed with the MG-PRO scale before treatment and at 1, 2 and 4 weeks after treatment. The classical test theory and item response theory （IRT） were used to assess the psychometric characteristics of the MG-PRO scale, Results： The MG-PRO scale included 4 dimensions： physical, psychological, social environment, and treatment. Confirmatory factor analysis showed that each dimension was consistent with the theoretical construct. The scores of the physical and psychological dimensions increased significantly at 1 week after treatment （P〈0.05）. All the dimension scores and the MG-PRO score increased significantly at 2 and 4 weeks after treatment （P〈0.05）. IRT showed that person separation indices were greater than 0.8, most of the item fit residual statistics were within ＋ 2.5, and no item had uniform or non-uniform differential item functioning （DIF） between gender and age （〈40, 〉140）. Conclusions： The MG-PRO scale is valid for measuring the quality of life （QOL） of MG patients, with good reliability, validity, responsiveness, and good psychometric characteristics from IRT. It can be applied to evaluate the QOL of MG patients and to assess treatment effects in clinical trials.展开更多
