This disease can not be clearly identified through laboratory tests at present, thus application of high-throughput technique in studying the expression profiles of PD helps to find the genetic markers for its early diagnosis. Studies on expression profiles of neurodegenerative diseases have revealed the novel genes and pathways involved in the progress of illness. In this study, the expression profiles of PD in blood were compared, showing that 181 differentially expressed genes (DEG) exhibit a similar expression trend both in patients and in normal controls.展开更多

In Gansu and Qinghai provinces and the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region of China, experimental schools for girls sponsored by education workers have seen inspiring results. In 1993, 96.4 percent of girls continued their schooling. According to 1990 statistics, more than 180 million Chinese were illiterate; two-thirds of them were women. Also, of children aged 7-11 who hadn’t yet gone to school, girls accounted for 81 percent.
