The effect of probucol in the treatment of diabetic retinopathy was investigated to analyze its impact on its hemodynamics, rheology and blood lipid. A total of 80 patients with diabetic retinopathy who were treated in the Ninth People's Hospital of Chongqing (Chongqing, China) from January 2015 to August 2016 were selected and divided into two groups by random number table, with 40 patients in...

For various polynomial-time reducibilities r, this paper asks whether being r-reducible to a sparse set is a broader notion than being r-equivalent to a sparse set. Although distinguishing equivalence and reducibility to sparse sets, for many-one or 1-truth-table reductions, would imply that P 6= NP, this paper shows that for k-truth-table reductions, k 2, equivalence and reducibility to sparse...

In this model, the parameter ρ indexes the degree of nonignorable selection in the outcome variable Yi. We chose μ = 0 6745 to ensure a missing fraction of 25%, which is approximately the degree of missingness found in our analysis of earnings data in the U.S. Census. We computed the distributions of missing and observed outcomes for various values of ρ by simulation, some of which are plotted ...

Using the HistCiteTM software and downloading searches of the Web of Science database we have created a master collection of 1,518 papers that have cited his work and several subset collections showing his impact in the field of scientometrics and research evaluation. Using the percentile rank indexes of his publications we have demonstrated his high impact in that area and have included a tabl...

Several different database configurations for supporting triplestores are implemented in Oracle and compared to each other in terms of execution speed across several queries. The configurations considered are a simple baseline architecture, a Triple-Triple architecture composed of redundant copies of the triples table with different indexing orders, and a configuration based on bitmap join inde...

For the shortage of the traditional evaluation methods of the urban economy, A new evaluation model proposed, establishing an index system of evaluation and decision table on city economy, and extracting important properties of input data from Rough Set and neural network, and evaluation indexes reduced as input of neural network to realize the city's economic strength evaluation , then, using ...

This paper discusses an implementation of database signatures. Previous work demonstrates how to use signatures to reduce base table storage requirements in a data warehouse thereby improving performance of database administration tasks as well as complex queries. This work builds upon prior work by showing how signatures enable efficient indexing. This efficient indexing strategy relies partly...

We revise the sequences of SUSY for a cyclic adiabatic evolution governed by the supersymmetric quantum mechanical Hamiltonian. The condition (su-persymmetric adiabatic evolution) under which the supersymmetric reductions of Berry (nondegenerated case) or Wilczek-Zee (degenerated case) phases of superpartners are taking place is pointed out. The analogue of Witten index (supersymmetric Berry in...
