Monthly total cancer incidence rates for women and monthly thyroid cancer incidence rates for women were retrieved from the Cancer Registry of Norway for the period 1953-2000, that is, 246-1061 cases per month and a total of 331 196 cases, and 0-24 female thyroid cases per month, a total of 5045, during this half-century. De-trended fluctuation analysis ad modum Peng et al., briefly explained i...

Under the background of the globalization, the competition among the enterprises becomes more and more fierce. And the speed of the product circulation is faster than before. Under this background, if the company forecasts the product demand more accurate, the company can plan the product planning according to the demand. The companies can improve the competitiveness. In this paper, we apply th...

ketamine is a promising alternative agent for pain control that offers benefit to traditional strategies, particularly in the setting of rib fracture. current pharmacologic therapies have clear adverse effects, and other options may be invasive, cost prohibitive, or marginally effective. we describe three consecutive patients with traumatic injuries including rib fracture for which a ketamine i...

a measured MarT of 9.4 °C. Carbon isotopes of T. giganteus were ambiguous and reveal no significant relationships with trends in nutrient concentrations (n and P), dissolved oxygen, and dissolved organic carbon, although they did exhibit more negative values concomitant with landfall of Hurricane Irene and trended to increasing values with ontogeny that could reflect migration. Carbon isotopes ...

In recent years, Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE) has trended toward increased automation in data acquisition. Automated scanning has the potential to greatly increase reliability of the NDE results, but it also tends to increase the volume of data that must be inspected manually by a skilled technician. This is a time-consuming task made tedious by the fact that most of the data contains no in...

This study, using wavelet-based method investigates the dynamics of long memory in the returns and volatility of equity markets. In the sample of five developed and five emerging markets we find that the daily return series from January 1988 to June 2013 may be considered as a mix of weak long memory and mean-reverting processes. In the case of volatility in the returns, there is evidence of lo...

Pedestrian priority is an important requirement for city centre regeneration. The quantitative analysis of the separation degree pedestrians and vehicles a key technique to measure walkability This paper proposes method measuring spatial structure in centres, based on topological relationships. Using space syntax as platform, centres quantitatively analysed from perspective vehicles, regenerati...

To describe circadian blood pressure (BP) patterns and linear interdialytic changes, a model was developed to describe simultaneously both the straight line change and oscillatory variation in BP and heart rate over an interdialytic interval in hemodialysis patients. Using this trended cosinor model, we simultaneously compared the impact of mean level of BP, linear changes over the interdialyti...
