Controversies surrounding fishery subsidy policies are widespread. Many stakeholders believe that subsidies play an important role in ensuring the livelihood of fishermen. At same time, pose a threat to stock resources and affect sustainable development fisheries. Based on panel data 30 provinces, municipalities, autonomous regions China from 2007 2017, article empirically examines influence fi...

This paper applies univariate and panel data unit root tests to annual panel data for 182 countries over the period 1979-2000 to examine the stationarity properties of per capita energy consumption. The univariate unit root test can only reject the unit root null for 29 per cent of the countries at the 10 per cent level or better without a trend and 37 per cent of the countries at the 10 per ce...

A 55-year-old physician had a PPD made as part of a clinical evaluation. Laboratory tests were unremarkable and PPD, read in 48 hours, showed an area of induration of 18 mm and an erythema of 51 mm (Panel A). A 2 mm punch biopsy was done in the center of the induration 96 hours after the injection. Histopathology showed an intense perivascular cuffing with macrophages and lymphocytes and edema ...

Test code: NE1801 The Blueprint Genetics Spinal Muscular Atrophy Panel is a 27 gene test for genetic diagnostics of patients with clinical suspicion of distal hereditary motor neuropathy or spinal muscular atrophy. Spinal muscular atrophies (SMAs) are inherited in an autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive or X-linked manner. In addition to deletion or gene conversion of SMN1 and copy number va...

Because serial correlation in linear panel-data models biases the standard errors and causes the results to be less efficient, researchers need to identify serial correlation in the idiosyncratic error term in a panel-data model. A new test for serial correlation in randomor fixed-effects one-way models derived by Wooldridge (2002) is attractive because it can be applied under general condition...

Early diagnosis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections is important with regard to patients' health and infectivity. We report the development of a specific and sensitive TaqMan assay for the detection of N. gonorrhoeae in clinical samples. The target sequence is a 76-bp fragment of the 5' untranslated region of the opa genes that encode opacity proteins. A panel of 448 well-defined N. gonorrhoeae...
