In this paper, we mainly consider these problems in general random effect model with balanced data. Exact tests and confidence intervals for a single variance component corresponding to random effect are developed by using generalized p-values and generalized confidence intervals. The resulting procedures are easy to compute and are applicable to small samples. Exact tests and confidence intervals are also established for comparing the random-effects variance components and the sum of random-effects variance components in two independent general random effect models with balanced data. Furthermore, we investigate the statistical properties of the resulting tests. Finally, some simulation results on the type Ⅰ error probability and power of the proposed test are reported. The simulation results indicate that exact test is extremely satisfactory for controlling type Ⅰ error probability.展开更多

Generalized p-values are proposed based on fiducial method for testing the two hypotheses at the presence of nonparametric nuisance parameter. Note that the nonparametric component can be approximated by a linear combination of some known functions, thus, the partially linear model can be approximated by a linear model. Thereby, generalized p-values for a linear model are studied first, and then the results are extended to the situation of partially linear model. Small sample frequency properties are analyzed theoretically. Meanwhile, simulations are conducted to assess the finite sample performance of the tests based on the proposed p-values.展开更多

文摘In this paper,we investigate the generalized quasilinear Schrödinger equation:-div(g2(u)▽u)+g(u)g'(u)|▽u|2+u=P(εx)|u|αp-2u,x∈R^(N),where N>3,g:R→R+is a C1 even function,g(0)=1,g'(s)≥0 for all s≥0,g(s)=β|s|α-1+O(|s|γ-1)as s→∞for some constantsα∈[1,2],β>0,γ<αand(α-1)g(s)≥g'(s)s for all s≥0,ε>0 is a positive parameter,and p∈(2,2^(*)).We will study the impact of the nonlinearity’s coefficient P(x)on the quantity of positive solutions.

文摘We introduce a new method to study the asymptotic behavior of solutions on the basis of the continuation theory for k-set contractions.We apply this technique to show the existence of nontrivial decaying solutions to the sup-linear generalized Emden-Fowler equation and the existence of asymptotically linear solutions to the sub-linear one.
文摘BACKGROUND Cervical spondylosis(CS)frequently co-occurs with generalized anxiety disorder(GAD),presenting a complex clinical challenge.Managing CS-related pain in patients with GAD is particularly challenging because of the bidirectional relationship between pain and anxiety,necessitating integrated treatment strategies.AIM To evaluate the efficacy of electroacupuncture(EA)in treating CS-related pain and anxiety in patients with GAD.METHODS This retrospective cohort study analyzed data from 83 patients with CS-related pain and GAD who received EA treatment over 2-year period.Pain intensity was assessed using the visual analog scale,and anxiety symptoms were measured using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale.Additionally,neuroinflammatory markers,including interleukin-6,tumor necrosis factor-alpha,and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein,were examined.Outcomes were evaluated at baseline,after 4 weeks,and after 8 weeks of treatment.RESULTS EA treatment significantly reduced CS-related pain(mean visual analog scale reduction:3.24±1.18;P<0.001)and improved anxiety symptoms(mean Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale reduction:7.83±2.65;P<0.001)after 8 weeks of treatment.Neuroinflammatory markers also showed significant reductions,with interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha levels decreasing by 32.7%and 28.5%,respectively(P<0.01).Pain reduction was significantly correlated with improvements in anxiety symptoms(r=0.68;P<0.001)and a decrease in inflammatory markers(r=0.54;P<0.01).CONCLUSION EA demonstrates significant efficacy in reducing CS-related pain in patients with comorbid GAD,along with concurrent improvements in anxiety symptoms and neuroinflammatory profiles.These findings suggest that EA may offer a valuable integrative approach for managing this complex clinical presentation,potentially addressing both pain and anxiety through the modulation of neuroinflammatory pathways.
