It might seem strange that an article on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) should be written by a scientist living and working in England. The confidence of western people is low, when it comes to using Chinese plants and formulae. However, there are so many wonderful blends that are beneficial for the skin, both internally and used externally, that it is about time that more effort was spent ...

This paper extends the base noun phrase(BNP) identification into a research on Chinese base phrase identification. After briefly introducing some basic concepts on Chinese base phrase, this paper presents a statistics based hybrid model for identifying 7 types of Chinese base phrases in view. Experiments show the efficiency of the proposed method in simplifying sentence structure. Significance ...

to remove unfavorable traits of new cereal tritipyrum (2n=6x=42, aabbebeb), various crosses between primary tritipyrum lines (female) with iranian bread wheat varieties (2n=6x=42, aabbdd) was performed and a f2 selfing population consisted of 1810 possible secondary tritipyrum seeds (2n=6x=42, aabbd(0-14) eb(0-14)) were produced. the chromosome constitution and homology index of 11 plants of th...

background the malaysian health and morbidity survey (2006) reported the highest prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (t2dm) among the indian population compared to the malay and chinese populations. many studies have supported the important role of adiponectin in insulin-sensitizing, which is associated with t2dm. these studies have raised a research question whether the variation in prevale...

Objective(s): Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that miRNAs contribute to various genetic and epigenetic modifications in the pathogenesis of gastric cancer (GC). Recent studies focused on the four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of pre-miRNAs including rs11614913, rs3746444, rs2910164, and rs2292832. It was suggested that these four SNPs were significantly associated with the risk ...

Background: Accurate voxel phantom is needed for dosimetric simulation in radiation therapy for malignant tumors in female pelvic region. However, most of the existing voxel phantoms are constructed on the basis of Caucasian or non-Chinese population. Materials and Methods: A computational framework for constructing female pelvic voxel phantom for radiation dosimetry was performed base...
