The relationship between correction maps and variations of along-path features was analyzed and the validity of applying the correction maps to improve performances of P/S discriminants for seismic discrimination was investigated. Results show that obtained correction maps can generally reflect event-station path effects upon corresponding P/S discriminants; and the correction of these effects could further reduce scatters of distance-corrected P/S measurements within earthquake and explosion populations as well as improve their discriminating performances if path effects are a significant factor of such scatters. For example, as corresponding Kriging correction map was applied, the misidentification rate of earthquakes by Pn(2-4 Hz)/Lg(2-4 Hz) at MAK was reduced from 16.3% to 5.2%.展开更多

Results obtained show that regional P/S amplitude ratios which may discriminate medium or large magnitude events well, are also applicable to low magnitude events Their performances for low magnitude events are almost as good as that for medium or large events. Statistical comparisons based on 25 P/S discriminate from the four seismic stations WMQ, BLK, MUL and MAK showed that the average misclassification rate for low-magnitude seismic events averagely was only 2 percent higher than that for medium and large magnitude seismic events.展开更多

Furthermore, a time series analysis of each parameter’s response ratios (Rr), i.e. the treatment’s value divided by the corresponding control’s one, was performed. Under S-deprivation, the Rr of laminas’ mean gs, E, and A presented oscillations within a ±15% fluctuation zone, notably the “control” zone, whilst those of laminas’ total DM, water amount, surface area, and length included oscillation during the first days and deviation later on, presenting deviation during d10. Under the N-deprivation conditions all Rr time courses except the A one, included early deviations from the control zone without recovering. The deviation from the control zone appeared at d4. Under P-deprivation, all Rr time courses represented oscillations within the control zone. P-deprivation’s patterns resembled those of S-deprivation. Compared to the one of the S-deprivation, the P-one’s oscillations took place within a broader zone. Linear relationships among the various Rr patterns were found between gs-E, gs-A, E-A, DM-W and DM-Sa. In conclusion, the impact of P-deprivation appeared in an early stage and included an alleviation action, the one of N-deprivation appeared early with no alleviation action, whilst that of S-deprivation appeared later, being rather weaker when compared to the impact of the P-deprivation’s impact.展开更多

Methods:Fifty patients(33 male and 17 female;age:44.12±11.51 years) with pleural effusions were selected to assay adenosine deaminase(ADA) activity in pleural fluid and serum in adjunct to pleural fluid analysis.Effusions were individually classified as transudates or exudates after careful evaluation of all the biochemical parameters of pleural fluid and serum of patients and on the basis of Lights criteria.Cutoff value for PADA was taken as 60U/L and that for pleural/serum ADA ratio(P/S ADA) was 1.8.Results:Fourty -three patients had exudative effusions among which 38 patients had tuberculous pleural effusions and 5 had nontubercular effusions.7 cases were transudates.Mean PADA levels in tubercular group(78.95±25.32 U/ L) were found to be much higher P=0.0000) than nontubercular(23.00±5.22 U/L) group.SADA levels in tubercular group(31.05±6.42 U/L) were significantly higher(P=0.0000)as compared to nontubercular group(15.58±8.35 U/L).PADA cutoff at 60 U/L yielded sensitivity and.specificity of 81.5%and 100%respectively,whereas P/S ADA ratio at 1.8 gave sensitivity and specificity of 84.2% and 75%respectively. A positive correlation(r=0.507,P= 0.001 1)between PADA and SADA was found in tubercular group but no such correlation(r=0.302,P=0.3407)was observed in nontubercular group.Conclusion: The measurement of ADA in tubercular pleural effusions has not only relevance but also a high diagnostic utility when other clinical and laboratory tests are either negative or confusing.展开更多
