Purpose: The improvement of the social security system can greatly affect residents' future uncertainty, and it is important to study the relationship between public pensions and household consumption. Research design, data and methodology: Using the 2018 China Household Panel Survey (CFPS) data, the instrumental variable method is used to analyze the impact of pension insurance on urban residents' consumption. Results: The results of the study show that there are differences in the impact of three different pension insurance systems on household consumption. The pension insurance for public sector significantly boosts household consumption, and having a pension insurance for public sector can increase household consumption by 7.7%. The pension insurance for enterprise employee will reduce household consumption, but this is only significant for urban households. The pension insurance for urban and rural residents has a negative impact on household consumption. For the 16- to 39-year-old group, having a pension insurance for urban and rural residents will reduce household consumption by 5.7%. At the same time, household income, assets, scale, and education level will positively stimulate household consumption. Conclusions: The study reveals varying impacts among different pension types, highlighting the need for optimizing social security schemes to incentivize higher consumption rates.

Liu, Jia,Ge, Yang-Yang,Zhu, Hong-Cheng,Yang, Xi,Cai, Jing,Zhang, Chi,Lu, Jing,Zhan, Liang-Liang,Qin, Qin,Yang, Yan,Yang, Yue-Hua,Zhang, Hao,Chen, Xiao-Chen,Liu, Zhe-Ming,Ma, Jian-Xin,Cheng, Hong-Yan,S Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2014 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.15 No.16

Radiation therapy is an important treatment for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). However, how to promote radiation sensitivity in HNSCC remains a challenge. This study aimed to investigate the radiosensitizing effects of fenofibrate on HNSCC and explore the underlying mechanisms. HNSCC cell lines CNE-2 and KB were subjected to ionizing radiation (IR), in the presence or absence of fenofibrate treatment. Cell growth and survival, apoptosis and cell cycle were evaluated. In addition, CNE-2 cells were xenografted into nude mice and subjected to IR and/or fenofibrate treatment. The expression of cyclinB and CDK1 was detected by Western blotting. Our results showed that fenofibrate efficiently radiosensitized HNSCC cells and xenografts in mice, and induced apoptosis and G2/M arrest via reducing the activity of the CDK1/cyclinB1 kinase complex. These data suggest that fenofibrate could be a promising radiosensitizer for HNSCC radiotherapy.

Hao Yang,Wei Chen,Peng Fu,Shengfu Zhong,Ju Guan,Peigao Luo 한국원예학회 2021 원예과학기술지 Vol.39 No.6

Akebia trifoliata, commonly named augmelon (means August plus melon), has been domesticating as a new artificial cultivation fruit crop in China for several years. Generally, field management measurements are severely dependent on the development dynamic of harvest organs, and therefore the study of fruit development stage of A. trifoliata is urgent in production. In this study, four cloned lines with various spindle, nephroid, pyriform and Banana-like shapes, were selected to observe fruit developmental parameters, including volume, weight, length and width from pollination to maturity. Volume rather than length or width, which can minimize the influence of fruit shape on growth stage, was finally employed as a primary parameter for dividing developmental stages. Then a Logistic model of volume growth was established according to the data of pyriform fruit, and the other three fruits were employed to the suitability of this mathematical model. The resulted showed that the growth curve of augmelon appeared typical double sigmoid shape for all four shapes fruits. Based on four inflection points of volume growth curve, the fruit development of augmelon was classified five developmental stages in the order: fast stretch (FS) stage lasting for 48 days, shape stabilization (SS) stage lasting for 30 days, tardy expansion (TE) stage lasting for 51 days, suspended expansion (SE) stage lasting for 21 days and fast expansion (FE) stage lasting for 30 days. Comprehensively, volume was an ideal growth parameter for dividing fruit developmental stage of augmelon, and five-stage growth model could be applied as reference for both gardener and scientist to refer to the fruit growth status.

<P>Peroxiredoxin II knockout (Prdx II<SUP>−/−</SUP>) mice had a spontaneous phenotype of hemolytic anemia. In this study, we found that Ter-119<SUP>+</SUP>CD71<SUP>+</SUP> cells increased in Prdx II<SUP>−/−</SUP> mice bone marrow (BM) at 8 weeks of age. We examined the differential expression profiles to bone marrow cells (BMCs) between Prdx II<SUP>+/+</SUP> and Prdx II<SUP>−/−</SUP> mice using a cDNA microarray. We identified the 136 candidates were differentially expressed a greater twofold increase or decrease than EPO receptor. In this study, we focused on the up-regulated NBPs during erythropoietic differentiation. According to cDNA microarray results, six NBPs except zfp-127 were up-regulated during erythropoiesis in Prdx II<SUP>−/−</SUP> mice. Among the six candidates, eIF3-p44, hnRNPH1, G3bp, and Zfpm-1 were dramatically increased at day 7 of the in vitro erythropoietic differentiation of human CD34<SUP>+</SUP> cells. However, DJ-1 and Rbm3 were slightly increased only at day 12. Our results suggest that up-regulated NBPs might be involved during erythropoietic differentiation. J. Cell.

The hot syndrome refers to any feverish conditionsduring a pathological development, a sub-healthphenomenon, and is a potential risk for human health. Themetabonomics study on the hot syndrome may provideinsight into understanding of its pathology and play a rolein the prevention and treatment of its related diseases. Inthis paper, the rats were dosed with the hot syndromeprescription, ginseng and water. The corresponding urinesamples were identified by rapid resolution liquid chromatographycombined with quadrupole time-of-flight tandemmass spectrometry. More than 1,000 metaboliccompounds from different urine samples could be furtherdifferentiated by principal component analysis. As a result,the rat body temperature and weight were recognized as thehot syndrome related factors. Some specific metaboliteshave been discovered as a pattern of the potential biomarkers for the hot syndrome. The results showed thatginseng cannot cause the hot syndrome in a reasonabledose, but the hot syndrome prescription can. It is suggestedthat ginseng cannot be used only as a tradition Chinesemedicine but also as a nutrient. The work showed metabonomicsmethod is a valuable tool in studying mechanismof the hot syndrome.

Twenty crossbred (Yorkshire × Landrace) gestating sows were used to determine the effects of Moringa Oleifera leaf (MOL) supplementation in lactating sow diets with or without banana peel powder (BPP) on reproductive performance, fecal moisture content, rectal temperature and hormone profile. The treatments were as follows: 1) CON (control diet), 2) M1 (control diet + 0.5% MOL), 3) M2 (control diet + 1.0% MOL), 4) M3 (control diet + 0.75% MOL and 0.75% BPP), and 5) M4 (control diet + 1.5% MOL and 1.5% BPP). The diets was fed from da 107 of gestation to weaning. MOL and BPP supplementation decreased (p < 0.05) the fecal moisture content compared with that of the CON at day 0 and 7 after farrowing, and 1.0% supplementation of MOL also decreased (p < 0.05) the fecal moisture content at day 14 after farrowing. On farrowing day, MOL supplementation decreased (p < 0.05) the blood cortisol and norepinephrine concentrations compared with the CON. In conclusion, the results of this study show that MOL supplementation decreased the fecal moisture content and plasma concentrations of cortisol and norepinephrine, and MOL and BPP supplementation also decreased the fecal moisture content in lactating sows.

YANG, Tian-hao,LIU, Pei-jin,JIN, Bing-ning The Society for Aerospace System Engineering 2015 International Journal of Aerospace System Engineer Vol.2 No.1

Under the background of combustion instability in solid rocket motor, to study the relationship between pressure oscillations and dynamic process of propellant flames, it is necessary to simulate an oscillation environment with certain frequency, amplitude and duration. This paper presents an experimental installation of pressure oscillation based on pulse-driving technique, with which pressure oscillations features under different pulse-driving conditions were compared and analyzed. For the pulse-driver applied in this paper, a pressure oscillation with 0.15s-0.5s duration, 179Hz-210Hz first order frequency, 0.04MPa-0.35MPa amplitude is simulated. The test results show that an oscillation with higher frequency and lager amplitude can be obtained when pulse-driver is installed on the top of the installation cavity, while on the side, an oscillation with a longer duration and approximate cavity natural frequency can be simulated.

Hao Yang Sun,Yan Lei,김인호 충남대학교 농업과학연구소 2019 Korean Journal of Agricultural Science Vol.46 No.2

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation of anise flavor on the performance of lactating sows and suckling pigs at different weaning ages. A total of 120 sows (Landrace × Yorkshire) were used in this experiment. Sows were fed with a commercial lactation diet (60 sows) or diet with flavor (60 sows) during days 100 to 114 of gestation period and the whole lactation period. Piglets were allotted to 2 dietary treatments based on their initial body weight (BW) using a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments with 2 levels of anise flavor (0 or 0.5 g/kg) and weaning periods (weaned at 21 day or 28 day after birth). Sows fed with flavor supplemented diets had higher (p < 0.05) back fat and average daily feed intake (ADFI) at weaning, lower (p < 0.05) back fat loss than those fed with non-flavor diets. Sows weaned at 28 day had higher (p < 0.05) weaning back fat and lower (p < 0.05) back fat loss than those weaned on 21 day. During weaning, piglet average daily gain (ADG), ADFI, digestibility of dry matter (DM), nitrogen (N), and gross energy (GE) and fecal score were affected by anise flavor, respectively. In conclusion, dietary flavor supplementation could increase feed intake of lactating sows, improve growth performance and reduce weaning stress of piglets, especially effective in the early weanling piglets. Meanwhile, interactive effects were observed about the piglet performance between weaning ages and anise flavor supplementation after weaning.
