‎in this paper we introduce the concept of order difference interval graph $gamma_{odi}(g)$ of a group $g$‎. ‎it is a graph $gamma_{odi}(g)$ with $v(gamma_{odi}(g)) = g$ and two vertices $a$ and $b$ are adjacent in $gamma_{odi}(g)$ if and only if $o(b)-o(a) in [o(a)‎, ‎o(b)]$‎. ‎without loss of generality‎, ‎we assume that $o(a) leq o(b)$‎. ‎in this paper we obtain several properties of $gamma_...

Breast cancer is a kind of malignant tumor that severely threatens women's lives and health worldwide. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) have been reported to mediate progression, while the mechanism still needs further identification.

Outward direct investment (ODI) from the People’s Republic of China (PRC) is surging. A common perception is that it was driven by the country’s resourceseeking and technology-seeking motives.

Incorporating the Healthy Eating Index concept, we have developed a global dietary quality index, the Overall Dietary Index (ODI). We have evaluated the relationships between ODI and chronic disease in a 1998 Taiwanese Health Screening program with over 46,000 members (51.2% females) aged 19-84. However, it could not predict health status adequately. Therefore, we revised this ODI which became ...
