Aims : The vegetation classification system of China (China-VCS) is not completed. Stipa steppes are the most important in China. Here we made optimal use available plot data to classify into associations a way that consistent with International Vegetation Classification. Study Area: Songnen Plain, Inner Mongolian Plateau, Loess Tibetan and northwest mountain areas Methods: We used 1337 plots p...

The high resolution absorption spectrum of monodeuterated water, HDO, has been recorded by Intracavity Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (ICLAS) in the 12145–13160 cm 1 region. The achieved sensitivity (noise equivalent absorption on the order of amin 10 9 cm ) allowed detecting transitions with line strengths as weak as 10 27 cm/molecule which is about 50 times lower than the weakest line intensit...

• Data were pooled from 2 randomized, double-blind, placebocontrolled phase 3 studies of naloxegol conducted over 12 weeks in patients with noncancer pain and OIC (N=1352; intent-to-treat [ITT], N=1337 [KODIAC-04, NCT01309841; KODIAC-05, NCT01323790]).3 – EQ-5D4 scores were collected at baseline, week 4, and week 12 and converted into estimates of utility using the Dolan algorithm, a tariff gen...

The presence of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) as the organic cofactor of Dactylium dendroides galactose oxidase and lentil (Lens culinaris) seedling amine oxidase, purported PQQ-containing oxidoreductases (Van der Meer, R.

CONTEXT The incidence of life-limiting progressive disease in sub-Saharan Africa presents a significant clinical and public health challenge. The ability to easily measure patient outcomes is essential to improving care. OBJECTIVES The present study aims to determine the specific factors (if any) that underpin the African Palliative Care Association African Palliative Outcome Scale to assist ...

[1] An overview of the annual hydroclimatology of the United States is provided. Time series of monthly streamflow, temperature, and precipitation are developed for 1337 watersheds in the United States. This unique data set is then used to evaluate several approaches for estimating the long-term water balance and the interannual variability of streamflow. Traditional relationships which predict...

We present a catalogue of candidate Hα emission and absorption line sources and blue objects in the Galactic Bulge Survey (GBS) region. We use a point source catalogue of the GBS fields (two strips of (l × b) = (6◦ × 1◦) centred at b = 1. ◦5 above and below the Galactic Centre), covering the magnitude range 16 ≤ r′ ≤ 22.5. We utilize (r′ – i′, r′ – Hα) colour–colour diagrams to select Hα emissi...
