The results showed that the total effective rate was 82% and markedly effective rate 31.2% in the treatment group (the Paste of Nitrum and Realgar Powder), and the total effective rate was 46.6% and markedly effective rate 23.2% in the control group (the nitroglycerin paste). The difference in therapeutic effects between the two groups was very significant (P<0.01), indicating that the therapeutic effect of the former was significantly superior to that of the latter.展开更多

The table of sixty-one headings was prepared in France, seven hundred and fifty years ago as a tool for finding the year codes for the 19-year of a particular cycle of Jewish years. This unique table demonstrated that there are only 61 possible arrangements of the year codes in these 19-year cycles. The table can be used to calculate the intervals between the appearances of a pair or any series of particular year codes. These intervals create a closed path.展开更多
