To analyse the mortality rates, causes of death and trends over time in children aged under five years in Henan province and to provide preventive advice to attempt to decrease the mortality rates of these children, a retrospective study was conducted, analysing the vital statistics data from 2004 to 2008 from the annual report of maternal and child health in Henan. The early neonatal (<7 days)...

Of our 153 metropolitan areas, the median number of permits per thousand population per year over the study period (1980 to 1993) was 5.8. However there was a large amount of variation in this data. Las Vegas had slightly over 22 permits per thousand, as did Ft. Myers, Florida. West Palm Beach had about 21 permits per thousand, Orlando 18.5 permits per thousand, and Melbourne 16.4 permits per t...

thousand. Four years later there were about two hundred camps in existence, and five thousand boys were in the field. The number has increased steadily and rapidly in the last five years. Five years ago about ten thousand boys received the benefit of outdoor life during the summer months. During the past season, 1907, there were between four and five hundred summer camps, and about twenty-five ...

in this study which was carried out in 1974 in the province of isphahan a total of 23,273 individuals in the cities, and 18,671 individuals in the villages of the same area were studied. results show that the median age in rural area is 16 and in urban area is 18 years. the birth rate in rural is 27.7 per thousand were as the same rate in urban area is 40.2 per thousand. similarly the general f...

The isotopic signatures of 15N and 18O in N2O emitted from tropical soils vary both spatially and temporally, leading to large uncertainty in the overall tropical source signature and thereby limiting the utility of isotopes in constraining the global N2O budget. Determining the reasons for spatial and temporal variations in isotope signatures requires that we know the isotope enrichment factor...

We evaluate hemolymph osmotic and ionic regulatory abilities and characterize a posterior gill microsomal (Na+, K+)-ATPase from the marine swimming crab, Callinectes ornatus, acclimated to 21 per thousand or 33 per thousand salinity. C. ornatus is isosmotic after acclimation to 21 per thousand but is hyposmotic at 33 per thousand salinity; hemolymph ions do not recover initial levels on acclima...

to determine the effects of priming and planting density on improvement of morphological and physiological traits of the two hybrid corns sc (s.c. 704) under double cropping in sari, a split plot experiment as randomized complete block design with four replications was conducted in 2010. treatments included two densities of 80 and 100 thousand plants per hectare as the first factor and osmoprim...

his issue marks the beginning of Cellular and TMolecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology volume 3. In the 2 years of publication thus far, the journal has made great progress and increasingly is recognized as a rigorous forum that presents groundbreaking research in cell biology, immunology, physiology, microbiology, genetics, and neurobiology of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, and pancreas....

Keyword search in relational databases has been extensively studied. Given a relational database, a keyword query finds a set of interconnected tuple structures connected by foreign key references. On rdbms, a keyword query is processed in two steps, namely, candidate networks (CNs) generation and CNs evaluation, where a CN is an sql. In common, a keyword query needs to be processed using over ...
