绵羊大肠阻塞病理模型血浆及组织中内皮素-1含量的变化

选择绵羊建立反刍动物大肠阻塞病理模型,对手术前、后静脉血浆及死亡后心脏、肝脏、脾脏、肺脏、肾脏、胰脏和肠组织中内皮素-1(ET-1)含量进行测定,探讨了该模型血浆及组织中ET-1含量的变化和临床意义。结果表明:模型组和对照组手术前血浆ET-1含量分别为(57.81±2.95)ng/L和(62.72±3.17)ng/L,手术后含量分别为(41.87±8.06)ng/L和(60.74±4.68)ng/L,模型组术后ET--1含量明显下降(P<0.05);每30min间隔采血,模型组术前、术后第2天和第4天ET--1含量依次降低,差异极显著(P<0.01);模型组心、肺、肾组织中的ET-1含量分别为(273.28±53.7)、(270.65±98.6)、(249.32±20.8)ng/L,分别比对照组心脏(105.73±32.2)ng/L、肺脏((34.34±6.73)ng/L、肾脏(50.43±12.89)ng/L明显升高(P<0.01)。这些变化可能与肠阻塞的发生、发展有密切关系。

Effects of human activities on migratory waterbirds at Lashihai Lake, China

Surveys on migratory waterbirds and their habitats at Lashihai Lake, China, were conducted from October 1999 to April 2000. Five fixed points, representing different degrees of habitat disturbance and quality, were selected around the lake. We used counts (n = 30) to compare diversity and abundance of waterbirds at each point and evaluate the effects of habitat disturbance. The distribution of waterbirds was affected by disturbance, with snore than one-third of the total species and nearly half of the total individuals occurring at the least disturbed point. Species richness was weakly and abundance was strongly correlated to habitat disturbance, but not to habitat quality. Habitat destruction and use of canoes were prominent at the lake. Naxi ethnic fishermen (n = 37) were interviewed. They caught 570 waterbirds between October 1999 and March 2000 in fishing nets. An estimation of the total number of waterbirds been trapped on the lake is 6164. Diving species were most susceptible. Conservation measures that should implement immediately include the cessation of habitat destruction, better plan for the development of tourism, a reduction in the number of canoes and zoning of the non-fishing area.

藏猴(Macaca thibetana)皮纹研究

藏猴手足面上皮纹与其他猕猴属动物基本相同;其指趾端上的花纹几乎全是原始花纹;掌面上,大小鱼际主要为箕形和开放形花纹,指间Ⅰ－Ⅳ区主要为斗形纹;跖面上,大小鱼纹及趾间Ⅰ－Ⅱ区则主要是箕形纹,趾间Ⅲ－Ⅳ区主要是斗形纹。左右端指间Ⅱ－Ⅳ区及趾间Ⅲ－Ⅳ区花纹分布有一定差异。性别之间在指间Ⅰ区有显著差异。四川峨眉山及凉山雷波县两地猴则在掌面大鱼际、指及趾间Ⅰ区具显著差异,可能与地理和社会隔离相关,趾间Ⅳ区的特征性Da花纹及弓形纹缺失似可作为藏猴皮纹的一个特征。

The nutritional status of fishing and non-fishing communities of Lake Victoria basin

We examined socio-economic variables that contribute to malnutrition in selected communities in the Lake Victoria basin during 2001. The study was carried out in nine districts and hinterland communities up to 25 km awayfrom the beach were used as the reference population. The main variables examined were: feeding habits, income and intra-household food distribution and living standards. Others included disease and health, sanitation and hygiene, childcare and mothers' age and workload, weaning practices, agricultural production and food availability, care during pregnancy and food taboos.

金环蛇毒心脏毒对S180,EAC腹水癌细胞的细胞毒性作用

目的: 探讨金环蛇毒心脏毒对S180, EAC 腹水癌细胞的细胞毒作用。方法: 采用小白鼠腹腔和皮下接种S180, EAC 腹 水癌细胞造成小白鼠腹水模型后腹腔注射金环蛇毒心脏毒。结果: 腹腔注射金环蛇毒心脏毒, 能抑制肿瘤细胞的生长, 降低接 种率。但不能完全控制腹水和癌细胞的生长。体外试验表明有明显的细胞毒作用。台酚蓝染色镜检可见死细胞显著增加, 腹 水图片检查, 给药后细胞膜破裂, 纤维化坏死明显。结论: 能延长小白鼠存活时间。

白眉长臂猿鸣叫的时间特征

滇西白眉长臂猿(Hylobates hoolock)鸣叫主要发生在上午,最早开始于黎明时分,最晚则在下午16:30以后。不同季节鸣叫发生时间有显著差异,可能与黎明时间(光亮度)不同有关,但持续时间无差异。同一季节异地间鸣叫持续时间差异显著。气候、猿群密度、栖息地状态对鸣叫有一定影响,但未见明显相关性。与黑长臂猿的种间比较表明,白眉长臂猿的鸣叫声在时间分布上有较大的散开度,持续时间也较长,二者有显著差异。

Statistical user simulation with a hidden agenda

Recent work in the area of probabilistic user simulation for training statistical dialogue managers has investigated a new agenda-based user model and presented preliminary experiments with a handcrafted model parameter set. Training the model on dialogue data is an important next step, but non-trivial since the user agenda states are not observable in data and the space of possible states and state transitions is intractably large. This paper presents a summary-space mapping which greatly reduces the number of state transitions and introduces a tree-based method for representing the space of possible agenda state sequences. Treating the user agenda as a hidden variable, the forward/backward algorithm can then be successfully applied to iteratively estimate the model parameters on dialogue data. © 2007 Association for Computational Linguistics.
