Age And Sex

SummaryAs part of a population study on chronic lung disease in the Netherlands, an investigation is made of the relationship of both age and sex with indices describing the maximum expiratory flow-volume (MEFV) curve. To determine the relationship, non-linear canonical correlation was used as realized in the computer program CANALS, a combination of ordinary canonical correlation analysis (CCA) and non-linear transformations of the variables. This method enhances the generality of the relationship to be found and has the advantage of showing the relative importance of categories or ranges within a variable with respect to that relationship. The above is exemplified by describing the relationship of age and sex with variables concerning respiratory symptoms and smoking habits. The analysis of age and sex with MEFV curve indices shows that non-linear canonical correlation analysis is an efficient tool in analysing size and shape of the MEFV curve and can be used to derive parameters concerning the whole curve.

Abstract We investigate the $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ -like flows for non-linear electrodynamic theories in D(=2n)-dimensional spacetime. Our analysis is restricted to the deformation problem of the classical free action by employing the proposed $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ operator from a simple integration technique. We show that this flow equation is compatible with $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ deformation of a scalar field theory in D = 2 and of a non-linear Born-Infeld type theory in D = 4 dimensions. However, our computation discloses that this kind of $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ flow in higher dimensions is essentially different from deformation that has been derived from the AdS/CFT interpretations. Indeed, the gravity that may be exist as a holographic dual theory of this kind of effective Born-Infeld action is not necessarily an AdS space. As an illustrative investigation in D = 4, we shall also show that our construction for the $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ operator preserves the original SL(2, ℝ) symmetry of a non-supersymmetric Born-Infeld theory, as well as $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 supersymmetric model. It is shown that the corresponding SL(2, ℝ) invariant action fixes the relationship between the $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ operator and quadratic form of the energy-momentum tensor in D = 4.

Carrot tissue is taken as a representative glycophilic tissue. It accumulates K+, Cl- and total osmotica to a steady level after 10-15 days. This level of Cl- is nearly constant and is independent of external KCl concentration and of turgor. Cl- influx is also independent of turgor. It therefore appears that the Cl- accumulating system in carrot (and possibly in other glycophytes) can, under artificial conditions, act as a homeostat for intracellular C- concentration, and is not the basis of turgor maintenance. It is suggested that turgor might be maintained by controlled accumulation of K+ carboxylates in glycophytes. Beet tissue is taken as a representative halophilic tissue. It accumulates K+, Cl-, and total osmotica to a steady level after about 4 days. At this stage turgor is constant, due to differences in the levels of KCl accumulated. Cl- influx is stimulated by reducing turgor after a lag of 3-5 h. The relationship of Cl- influx to turgor is non-linear. It therefore appears that in beet (and possibly in other halophytes) turgor maintenance is based on the turgor-sensitive accumulation of Cl- salts. Cl- influx in beet is also affected by changes in intracellular Cl- concentration, as in carrot. It is suggested that this feedback relationship may primarily be part of a system for the controlled uptake of nutrients rather than of Cl- in both tissues.

In this paper we discuss about how the relationship between non-linear differential equations on aerodynamic damping with linearly viscous damping equations. And it turns out after analyzing that the changes that occur pendulum that changes from the start of the maximum state to a stable state takes time so that changes that occur until the state is stable, this change can be reduced with the use of viscous damper

Abstract Background: Research on the relationship between Creatinine to Body Weight Ratios (Cre/BW ratios) and the prevalence of diabetes is still lacking. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential association between Cre/BW ratios and incident of diabetes in Chinese adults.Methods: This retrospective study was conducted in 199,526 patients from Rich Healthcare Group in China from 2010 to 2016. The participants were divided into quartiles of the Cre/BW ratios. Multivariate multiple imputation and dummy variables were used to handle missing values. Cox proportional-hazards regression was used to investigate the association of Cre/BW and diabetes. Generalized additive models(GAM) were used to identify non-linear relationships.Results: Of all participants,after handling missing values and adjustment for potential confounders, the multivariate Cox regression analysis results showed that Cre/BW ratios was inversely associated with diabetes risk( HR: 0.268; 95% CI:0.229 to 0.314, P < 0.00001).For men, the hazard ratios(HRs) of incident diabetes was 0.255(95%CI: 0.212-0.307);and for women HR= 0.297 (95%CI: 0.218-0.406).Moreover, sensitivity analysis confirmed the stability of the results. Furthermore, GAM revealed a saturation effect on the independent association between Cre/BW and incident of diabetes.Conclusions: This study demonstrated that increased Cre/BW is negatively correlated with incident of diabetes in Chinese for the first time. And we found that the relationship between Cre/BW and incident of diabetes was non-linear.

Abstract Prediction of weather condition is important to take efficient decisions. In general, the relationship between the input weather parameters and the output weather condition is non linear and predicting the weather conditions in non linear relationship posses challenging task. The traditional methods of weather prediction sometimes deviate in predicting the weather conditions due to non linear relationship between the input features and output condition. Motivated with this factor, we propose a neural networks based model for weather prediction. The superiority of the proposed model is tested with the weather data collected from Indian metrological Department (IMD). The performance of model is tested with various metrics..

This article analyzes the relationship between Government size and corruption. Unlike the works in the way which suppose a linear relationship between the two variables, we estimate a panel with change of the modes to characterize the impact of the size of the Central Government on corruption, in the countries of the economic community and monetary of Central Africa (EMCCA). The results show that there is a non-linear relationship between these two variables. Indeed, a strong involvement of the Government in economic activity results in a significant increase in corruption when the Government exceeds a size of 13.5508% of the GDP.

The Relationship

This study re-examines the validity of the relationship between the Singapore dollar–U.S. dollar exchange rate and relative prices using the latest econometric methodologies that account for non-linearity. Among others, this study finds Exponential Smooth Transition Autoregressive (ESTAR)-type non-linear mean-reverting adjustment process of the nominal Singapore dollar–U.S. dollar rate towards the consumer price index ratio. Unlike previous findings of a linear cointegration relationship between the nominal Singapore dollar–U.S. dollar exchange rate and consumer price index ratio, this study shows that the relationship is in fact non-linear in nature. The major economic implications of our findings are: (1) policy makers need to take non-linearity into consideration in their policy decisions; (2) the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) is able to maintain the macroeconomic equilibrium despite the authority's strong dollar policy; and (3) one should keep track of Singapore's monetary policy and other innovations in aggregate demand in order to closely monitor the movement of the Singapore exchange rate.

Abstract Empedocles made use of two typical features of hexameter composition: Ritornellkomposition and episodic composition. By repeating lines in non-linear and non-circular patterns, Empedocles organized the episodes that made up his poem and invited his audience to reconstruct the relationship between them. Differences within repeated lines are not just variations but significant linguistic elements that determine the meaning: whereas the notion of repetition is misleading because it is vague and puts too much emphasis on similitude, a model that combines the notion of Ritornell with that of episodic composition allows us to apprehend more fully the meaning of the poetic organization of the material.
