Background Recently, cases of medical disputes and even acts of violence toward physicians by patients in China have been escalating. It remains unknown whether competition improves the patient-physician relationship. Methods This paper analyzes the relationship between hospital competition and the probability of medical disputes occurrence according to the theory of social control. Data from all...
Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) is a member of the Aquabirnavirus genus, which caused mass mortality (nearly 100%) in farmed rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in aquaculture farms in 2016, China. Major clinical signs included decreased appetite, mucous-like stools, and darkened pigmentation. Pathological changes in moribund fish were observed, such as marked vacuolar degeneration of...
Based on PWV (Precipitable Water Vapor) data from the ground-based GPS (Global Positioning System), weather station's ground data and NCEP grid reanalysis dataset, the transport process of water vapor during the “7.17” heavy rainfall in Chongqing of 2007 is studied. The important role of remote sensing water vapor of the ground-based GPS (precipitable water vapor) is analyzed. It is shown that the...
In this paper, wet deposition of nitrogen in a small watershed of the Three Gorges Reservoir Area (TGRA) was investigated from 2004 to 2008. These results indicated that average TN concentration in rainwater was 2.02 mg L-1, which exceeded the threshold of eutrophication. TN concentrations were higher in the dry season than that in the wet season, but the wet season was the key period for N deposition...
On the basis of NOAA monthly OLR data and Chinese National Climate Center precipitation data of 160 stations from 1979 to 2007, the spatial and temporal characteristics of winter convection activity over Tropical Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean (TIOPO) and its relationship with subsequent summer precipitation over China have been analyzed. The results show that the winter convection activity has weakened...
