A critical study of the rich religious tradition surrounding Guan Yu 關羽
(Guandi 關帝 / Guangong 關公 / Lord Guan) was long overdue. Bared ter Haar’s recent book rises up to the task with commendable thoroughness, a tour de force of...
Miss Li Nei-Yu of Peiping, China, submitted an application for admission to Winthrop College for Women. Her transcripts arrived with $1400 US in postage due to the inflation in China. Rock Hill post office employees say to send...
Recurrent gene mutations often cooperate in a predefined stepwise and synergistic manner to alter global transcription, through directly or indirectly remodeling epigenetic landscape on linear and three-dimensional (3D) scales....
Osmanthus fragrans (scientific name: Osmanthus fragrans (Thunb.) Lour.) is a species of the Osmanthus genus in the family Oleaceae, and it has a long history of cultivation in China. O. fragrans is edible and is well known for...
Starting off from Makeham’s (2003) differentiation between historical meaning and scriptural meaning, Huang’s (2011) citation of coherence theories and Xu’s (2002; 2004a; 2004b) embodimental reading by rejecting Western logos...
BACKGROUND: The optimal procedure for combining radiotherapy (RT) with tamoxifen treatment is controversial as RT may alter the pharmacokinetics and biotransformation of tamoxifen. The present study investigated this potential...
This paper identifies three stages in the radical technological innovation process, namely formation process in niches, breaking out of niches and entering regimes, and new regime formation. It then adopts Multi-level...
In order to improve the image quality of BLADE magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using the index tensor solvers and to evaluate MRI image quality in a clinical setting, we implemented BLADE MRI reconstructions using two tensor...
Data interaction scenarios involving multiple parties in network communities have problems of trust, data security, and reliability of the parties, and secure multiparty computation(SMPC) can effectively solve these problems. To...
Neuronal networks, especially those in the central nervous system (CNS), evolved to support extensive functional capabilities while ensuring stability. Several physiological "brakes" that maintain the stability of the neuronal...
Anti-cytokine autoantibodies may cause immunodeficiency and have been recently recognized as 'autoimmune phenocopies of primary immunodeficiencies' and are found in particular, but not exclusively in adult patients. By blocking...
Abstract: Anti-cytokine autoantibodies may cause immunodeficiency and have been recently recognized as ‘autoimmune phenocopies of primary immunodeficiencies’ and are found in particular, but not exclusively in adult patients. By...
The interaction of trailing vortices of an upstream wing with rigid and flexible downstream wings has been investigated experimentally in a wind tunnel, using particle image velocimetry, hot-wire, force and deformation...
