Effect of IAA on coumarins synthesis in Angelica dahurica under soil compactness stress by Xinglong Zhu, Xiaoyan Chen, Chengfeng Huang, Yongfeng Zhou, Tao Zhou, Qinghua Wu, Jin Pei

“…It was found that both too low and too high soil compactness resulted in low biomass accumulation of A. dahurica, but the latter showed a higher rate of coumarins accumulation. IAA was positively correlated (p < 0.1) with various morphological parameters and total coumarins content, suggesting that IAA may be associated with coumarins synthesis. …”

“…Objective To examine whether influenza transmission risk decreased during summer and winter vacations and increased after vacations and statutory holiday.Design An ecological study.Setting Guangzhou, Guangdong Province of China.Participants A total of 458 343 influenza cases in school-aged children were included, including 160 067 (35.05%) in kindergarten, 223 817 (48.83%) in primary school, 50 053 (10.92%) in middle school and 23 801 (5.19%) in high school.Data and methods Data on influenza cases were obtained from the Notifiable Infectious Disease Surveillance System operated by Guangzhou Centre for Disease Control and Prevention. Influenza incidence rate ratio (IRR) by negative binomial regression model was used to analyse the influenza risk of school-age children during/after vacation to before/during breaks.Results In all four groups, there was significantly lower incidence of influenza during winter and summer vacations compared with the 4 weeks preceding vacations. …”

A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Most Endoparasites and Ectoparasites during Past Decade in Iraq by Karwan S. Najm Al-Marjan, Hawri H. Mohammed Jabbary, Liza J. Yousif, Fouad H. Kamil, Najat J. Ahmed

“…During the reviewed period, high prevalence of infection was recorded in several Iraqi provenances including, E. histolytica from Kirkuk (79.49%), T. gondii from in AL-Amaara (18.07%), G. lamblia and T. vaginalis from AL-Basrah (11.05%, 55.4%, respectively), and the head lice, P. humanus capiotis from Koya District at Erbil provenance (41.14%). Variation in the rate of infection/infestation tells us that there is some instability among study area including, instability of the security and military situation, economic instability, population density instability. …”

Evolution laws and control technology of near and far stress field in hard roof mining roadway by Jie HE, Peng CHENG, Le WU, JunPing FAN

“…The maximum convergence of the roof and floor in the 15119 return airway, associated with the hydraulic fracturing of the new scheme, is 460 mm, and the maximum rib convergence is 430 mm, resulting in a 26.1% reduction in cross-sectional shrinkage rate. Consequently, the rock surrounding the gallery’s stress control scheme for both far-field and near-field has been proven effective, providing a theoretical basis and technical reference for similar galleries.…”
