background: precise diagnosis of disease risk factors via efficient statistical models is the primary step for reducing the heavy costs of breast cancer, as one of the most highly prevalent cancer throughout the world. therefore, the aim of this study was to present a recently introduced statistical model in order to assess its proficiency for model fitting. methods: the information of 1465 eli...

A total number of 156 laying chickens at 29 weeks of age were used in the study. Birds were distributed equally in two dietary energy levels (2600 and 2900 Kcal ME/Kg feed) and three strains viz., Lohmann Selected Leghorn (LSL), Fayoumi and Dandarawi. Three experiments were conducted to measure energy partitioning values (36 birds), liver oxygen consumption and oxygen consumption of epithelium ...

Mowing for hay is a widely adopted practice for grasslands utilization and management. However, its effects on energy partitioning have not well been studied. Our primary objective was to examine the role of mowing as a disturbance factor acting on energy partitioning and relationships between community composition/structure and energy fluxes in a typical steppe ecosystem through a long-term fi...

A theory is described for the variation in the rate constants for formation of different ozone isotopomers from oxygen atoms and molecules at low pressures. The theory is implemented using a simplified description which treats the transition state as loose. The two principal features of the theory are a phase space partitioning of the transition states of the two exit channels after formation o...

As a complement to our efforts to update and revise the thermodynamic basis for predicting garnet-melt trace element partitioning using lattice-strain theory (van Westrenen and Draper in Contrib Mineral Petrol, this issue), we have performed detailed statistical evaluations of possible correlations between intensive and extensive variables and experimentally determined garnet-melt partitioning ...

the objective of the present field experiment was to examine how plant density and enhanced source, i.e. thinning treatments, may affect grain yield and its components for a non-prolific maize hybrid, sc704. the environment of the hybrid maize crop was changed at intervals over its life cycle by removing every other plant in rows equispaced at 75 cm apart with a population of 13.34 plants m...
