Reciprocity Relation between Alternative Gravity Formulas

We compare Newton’s force law of universal gravitation with a corrected simple approach based on Bhandari’s recently presented work, where the gravitation constant G is maintained. A reciprocity relation exists between both alternative gravity formulas with respect to the distances between mass centers. We conclude a one-to-one mapping of the two gravitational formulas. We don’t need Einstein’s construct of spacetime bending by matter.

Background:The Institute of Medicine has proposed that the amount of disease-specific research funding provided by the National Institutes of Health(NIH)be systematically and consistently compared with the burden of disease for society.Methods:We performed a cross-sectional study comparing estimates of disease-specific funding in 1996 with data on six measures of the burden of disease.

THE RELATION BETWEEN EVOLUTION OF SPATIAL WORKING MEMORY FUNCTION AND OF MORPHOLOGY OF THE DORSOLATERAL PREFRONTAL CORTEX AMONG THE RHESUS MONKEY, SLOW LORIS AND TREE SHREW

The relation between evolution of spatial working memory function and of morphology of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex among the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta), the slow loris (Nycticebus coucang) and the tree shrew (Tupaia belangen chinensis) were reported in present paper. The results read as follows: In the DR performance with training, the rhesus monkeys and slow lorises could reach a criterion of 90% correct response at 1.1 ± 3.2 seconds, and 3.8±0.4 seconds delay interval, respectively, by 1000 training trails. The tree shrews failed to reach the criterion of 90% correct response even at 0 seconds delay interval by 1000 training trails. If a delay interval was tested in one session (30 trails) only, doing the DR performamce without training, the rhesus monkeys reached a correct of 80% or higher in each session at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 seconds delay, respectively. The percent correct in each session of the slow lorises showed no differences from the rhesus monkeys at 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 seconds delay. However, when the delay interval was increased to 5 seconds, the percent correct of the DR performance declined to 70% or lower in the slow lorises. In the tree shrews the percent correct in each session reached to 70% or lower at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 seconds delay interval, respectively. The morphological studies revealed that the size of the prefrontal cortex increased, and the structure got complex in the course of the evolution in primates. It is suggested that the relation of evolution between the spatial working memory function and anatomy in the prefrontal cortex might be significant among the three species, both the development of morphology and that of the spatial working memory function in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex are later than other regions of cerebral cortex in phylogenetic evolution course.

P-wave tomography and relation between shallow and deep structures beneath the Songliao basin

We selected relative travel-time residuals from teleseismic waveform data using the waveform correction method and imaged the P wave velocity structure beneath Northeast China. In combination with other geophysical data, we discussed the relation between the shallow and deep structures of the area. The results show that there is a primary high-velocity zone with some high- and low-ve- locity distribution characters beneath the Songliao basin. The low-velocity anomalies may extend down to the upper mantle, and may be the result of material upwelling. The low-velocity anomaly beneath the southern part of the Songliao basin is connected to those beneath the Chang- baishan and A＇ershan volcanic areas. It may be an upwelling channel from the mantle beneath the Songliao basin and adjacent area. This finding indicates the Songliao basin was a result of asthenospheric upwelling caused by subduction of the Pacific plate under the Eurasian plate.

RELATION BETWEEN MORPHOMETRIC GRADES OF BLADDER TUMOR AND PROGNOSIS

The relation between morphometric grades (M grading) of 84 cases of bladder tumor and prognoses was evaluated. The results shown that the higher the M grading, the lower the survival rate and the higher the recurrence rate. As the M grade increases, the tumor has partial of total absence of ABO(H) antigens of tumor cell surface and could be accompanied with muscular invasion. When recurring, the tumor has a poor prognosis if M grading increases from lower to higher grades. The morphometric grading system is able to make a quantitative pathologic diagnosis and can predict the biological behavior of bladder tumors.

Relation between Modulus of Elasticity and Compressive Strength of Ultrahigh-Strength Mortar with Mixed Silicon Carbide as Fine Aggregate

Ultrahigh-strength mortar mixed surface-oxidized silicon carbide as a fine aggregate was prepared by means of press-casting followed by curing in an autoclave. The relation between modulus of elssticity up to 111 GPa and compressive strength up to 360 MPa of mortar mixed silicon carbide was discussed and it was revealed that the contributions of the aggregate hardness and of the interfacial strength between the aggregate and the cement paste on the elasticity of mortar were imporant.

Studies on the Relation between the Composition of Thermal Sensitive MnZn Ferrite and Curie Temperature

Grey relational analysis on the relation between marine environmental factors and oxidation-reduction potential

The effects of marine environmental factors-temperature （T）, dissolved oxygen （DO）, salinity （S） and pH--on the oxidation-reduction potential （ORP） of natural seawater were studied in laboratory. The results show an indistinct relationship between these four factors and the ORE but they did impact the ORP. Common mathematical methods were not applicable for describing the relationship. Therefore, a grey relational analysis （GRA） method was developed. The degrees of correlation were calculated according to GILA and the values of T, pH, DO and S were 0.744, 0.710, 0.692 and 0.690, respectively. From these values, the relations of these factors to the ORP could be described and evaluated, and those of T and pH were relatively major. In general, ORP is influenced by the synergic effect of T, DO, pH and S, with no single factor having an outstanding role.

Paleosalinity in the Tianluoshan site and the correlation between the Hemudu culture and its environmental background

Paleosalinity records of the Tianluoshan site are derived from measurations data of clay mineral, boron, strontium, barium, after field sampling in three profiles of the Tianluoshan site. The relative sea level changes are discussed according to the lab results. The record indicates that the region where the Tianluoshan site located has witnessed at least three times of relative sea level high-stand before, during and after the Hemudu period. Based on previous researches, this paper also focuses on discussing several environmental elements, the inter-relationships between environmental condition, human activities and development of the Hemudu culture comprehensively.

Material component to non-linear relation between sediment yield and drainage network development:an flume experimental study

This paper examines the experimental study on influence of material component to non-linear relation between sediment yield and drainage network development completed in the Lab. The area of flume drainage system is 81.2 m2, the longitudinal gradient and cross section slope are from 0.0348 to 0.0775 and from 0.0115 to 0.038, respectively. Different model materials with a medium diameter of 0.021 mm, 0.076 mm and 0.066 mm cover three experiments each. An artificial rainfall equipment is a sprinkler-system composed of 7 downward nozzles, distributed by hexagon type and a given rainfall intensity is 35.56 mm/hr.cm2. Three experiments are designed by process-response principle at the beginning the ψ shaped small network is dug in the flume. Running time spans are 720 m, 1440 minutes and 540 minutes for Runs I, IV and VI, respectively. Three experiments show that the sediment yield processes are characterized by delaying with a vibration. During network development the energy of a drainage system is dissipated by two ways, of which one is increasing the number of channels (rill and gully), and the other one is enlarging the channel length. The fractal dimension of a drainage network is exactly an index of energy dissipation of a drainage morphological system. Change of this index with time is an unsymmetrical concave curve. Comparison of three experiments explains that the vibration and the delaying ratio of sediment yield processes increase with material coarsening, while the number of channel decreases. The length of channel enlarges with material fining. There exists non-linear relationship between fractal dimension and sediment yield with an unsymmetrical hyperbolic curve. The absolute value of delaying ratio of the curve reduces with time running and material fining. It is characterized by substitution of situation to time.

Corresponding Relation between Warm Season Precipitation Extremes and Surface Air Temperature in South China

Hourly data of 42 rain gauges over South China during 1966–2005 were used to analyze the corresponding relation between precipitation extremes and surface air temperature in the warm season(May to October).The results show that below 25℃,both daily and hourly precipitation extremes in South China increase with rising temperature.More extreme events transit to the two-time Clausius-Clapeyron(CC)relationship at lower temperatures.Daily as well as hourly precipitation extremes have a decreasing tendency nearly above 25℃,among which the decrease of hourly extremes is much more significant.In order to investigate the efects of rainfall durations,hourly precipitation extremes are presented by short duration and long duration precipitation,respectively.Results show that the dramatic decrease of hourly rainfall intensities above 25℃ is mainly caused by short duration precipitation,and long duration precipitation extremes rarely occur in South China when surface air temperature surpasses 28℃.

Correlation between social relational quality and hope among patients with permanent colostomies

Purpose:This study examined the correlation between social relational quality and hope among patients with permanent colostomies.Methods:Eighty-six eligible patients with permanent colostomies were recruited from a Class A tertiary hospital from July to December 2012.A self-designed demographic questionnaire,the Social Relational Quality Scale(SRQS),and the Herth Hope Index(HHI)were administered to all patients.Results:The total social relationship quality and hope scores were 49.42±4.98 and 38.52±4.64,respectively.The total scale score and composing subscale scores for social relationship quality and hope showed a statistically significant positive correlation with each other(r?0.324e0.680;p<0.01).Conclusions:A positive correlation exists between social relational quality and hope among patients with permanent colostomies.This finding suggests that such patients should be given hope and that their families should be encouraged to provide more support for better acceptance and adjustment.

A STUDY ON THE RELATION BETWEEN SOIL AND NEEDLE CONTENT OF NUTRIENT ELEMENTS IN THE KOREAN PINE PLANTATION

Through the content analysis of nutrient elements in the soil and in the needle at thedifferent site classes and periods of growth of P.koraiensis,and in a single growing season,someconclusions can be drawn below:Most of the soil nutrient elements were higher at the good sitesthan at the poor ones in an annua1 average concentration of them,i.e.,site class 1】site class2】site class 3.And for P.korarensis tree at every site class,the nutrient elements in their needles didthe same.However,each of the elements in the soil or in the need was seldom at the same level ofconcentration on the good or on the poor site during different periods of growth.There are no aninevitable relationship between the contents of the soil nutrient elements and the needle’s.Andwhether these elements are high or low within a tree body may depend on the physiogical require-ment of the tree,but not on their contents in the environment.Some nutrient elements repuired forP.koraiensis varied with growth periods during a whole growing

THE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE EXPRESSION OF MULTIDRUG RESISTANCE RELATED GENE AND CELL APOPTOSIS AND CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE IN NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER

Objective: To explore the correlation and clinical significance between expression of MDR (multidrug resistance) related gene MRP, MDR1, C-erbB-2 and cell apoptosis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: RT-PCR, Immunohistochemistry were used to examine the expression of mRNA and protein in the MDR and apoptosis related gene. Apoptosis cells were assayed by Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT)- mediated biotin dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL). Results: The positive rates of MRP, MDR1, C-erbB-2, bc1-2, C-myc mRNA in 63 cases NSCLC were 81.0% (51/63), 38.1%(24/63), 47.6%(30/63), 65.1%(41/63), 76.2%(48/63) respectively. Their levels were higher than those of corresponding proteins (74.6%, 34.9%, 46.0%, 61.9%, 71.4%, respectively). The significant association was found between the mRNA level and the protein expression (r =+0.764, P<0.02). The C-myc expression in 2 cases adjacent and benign lung tissue were light positive, and another 3 cases were negative. The positive correlation were demonstrated between C-myc and C-erbB-2 (r=+0.547, p=0.001) as well as bcl-2 and C-erbB-2 (r =+0.486, p=0.023) in NSCLC. There is no any correlation among bcl-2, C-myc and MRP or MDR1. There exists inverse correlation between apoptotic index and bcl-2 (r = -0.587, p = 0.017), and no any correlation among apoptotic index and MRP or MDR1 or C-erbB-2 or C-myc. The average apoptotic index were higher in the effective chemotherapy group (27.2( 2.1, 30.5(1.8) than that in the non-effective chemotherapy group (9.4( 1.3, 12.6( 2.4) with adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma (p =0.01, p=0.004). The positive rates of bcl-2, MRP, C-erbB-2 expression in the effective chemotherapy group (31.8%, 40.9%, 22.7%, respectively) were lower than those in the non-effective chemotherapy group (77.4%, 90.3%, 67.7%, respectively) (p=0.036, p=0.012, p=0.01), but MDR1 and C-myc expression have no any significant difference (p=0.067, p=0.282). The median survival time in the patients with coexpression of more than three MDR and/or apoptosis related genes are shorter (8.6 months) than that in those patients with coexpression of less than three MDR and/or apoptosis related genes (15.5 months)(p=0.01). Conclusion: The multidrug resistance in NSCLC is not only related to many drug resistance genes, but also involved in cell apoptosis and apoptosis related gene expression. The coexpression of MDR and apoptosis related gene is related to the survival time.

CORRELATION BETWEEN PEAK INTENSITY OF EXTREME AFTERNOON SHORT-DURATION RAINFALL AND HUMIDITY AND SURFACE AIR TEMPERATURE IN SOUTHEAST COAST OF CHINA

Using hourly rainfall intensity, daily surface air temperature, humidity and low-level dew point depressions at55 stations in the southeast coast of China, and sea surface temperature from reanalysis in the coastal region, this paper analyzes the connection between peak intensity of extreme afternoon short-duration rainfall(EASR) and humidity as well as surface air temperature. The dependency of extreme peak intensity of EASR on temperature has a significant transition. When daily highest surface temperature is below(above) 29°C, the peak rainfall intensity shows an ascending(descending) tendency with rising temperature. Having investigated the role of moisture condition in the variation of EASR and temperature, this paper discovered that the decrease of peak rainfall intensity with temperature rising is connected with the variation of relative humidity. At higher temperatures, the land surface relative humidity decreases dramatically as temperature further increases. During this process, the sea surface temperature maintains basically unchanged, resulting in indistinct variations of water vapor content at seas. As water vapor over land is mainly contributed by the quantitative moisture transport from adjacent seas, the decline of relative humidity over land will be consequently caused by the further rise of surface air temperature.
