Objectives : This study aims to summarize Tang Zong-hai's Qi transformation theory of the Six meridians through his book "Shanghanlun Qianzhubuzheng傷寒論淺注補正" where he integrated Western anatomy with the Qi transformation theory of East Asian Medicine to interpret Zhang Zhong Jing's "Shanghanlun(傷寒論)". The objective is to assist clinical application. Methods : Focusing on the contents of disease of the six meridians in the "傷寒論淺注補正", Tang's theories on the function of Zangfu(臟腑), Opening-Closing-Pivot(關闔樞), Inter-communication of Zangfu(臟腑相通), the Twelve Meridians(十二經脈) from his other publication "中西匯通醫經精義" were examined and related to in the process of explaining Qi transformation theory in detail. Results : 1. The Qi transformation function of the Taiyang meridian is related to "膀胱者, 氣化則能出" where the Small Intestine and Bladder inter-communicate. 2. The Qi transformation function of the Yangming meridian is related to the control of dryness and dampness through the Qi transformation of "陽明不從標本, 從乎中." 3. The Qi transformation function of the Shaoyang meridian is related to the Life-Fire function of the Triple Energizer-Gallbladder-Pericardium coalition through "少陽屬腎." 4. The Qi transformation function of the Taiyang meridian refers to the Heart Fire nurturing the Spleen Earth by creating 膏油 through veins. 5. The Qi transformation function of the Shaoyin meridian is related to the controlling of the Nutrient Qi(營氣) and Defense Qi(衛氣) through '心主血脈, 腎主元氣.' 6. The Qi transformation function of the Jueyin meridian is related to the ability of 和風 which results from '陰盡陽生' to harmonize and control the balance of Water Coldness(水冷) and Fire Heat(火熱). Conclusions : Tang's Qi Transformation Theory of the Six Meridians is his key theory explained from the perspective of Qi transformation of disease in the six meridians of "Shanghanlun", closely related to basic theories such as theory of Zang form(臟象學說), Opening-Closing-Pivot(關闔樞), Inter-communication of Zangfu(臟腑相通), the Twelve Meridians(十二經脈) of East Asian Medicine.

In this paper, we will study properties of the Green's potential for the Green's function of B which is defined in [8]. In particular, we will investigate boundary behavior of some functions related with Green's function within tangential approach regions that were used in [4].

We find a necessary and sufficient condition for which a point star-configuration in $\mathbb{P}^n$ has generic Hilbert function. More precisely, a point star-configuration in $\mathbb{P}^n$ defined by general forms of degrees $d_1,{\ldots},d_s$ with $3{\leq}n{\leq}s$ has generic Hilbert function if and only if $d_1={\cdots}=d_{s-1}=1$ and $d_s=1,2$. Otherwise, the Hilbert function of a point star-configuration in $\mathbb{P}^n$ is NEVER generic.

Compared to modal split, the methods of forecasting traffic volumes diverted in various types of I.C.s have not been sufficiently studied. The purpose of this study is to derive a new diversion function that can represent the directional traffic volume in accordance with various geometrics of I.C.s. In general, knowing various traffic impedances and the amount of traffic production and attraction, one can estimate proper traffic volumes associated with directions by using a well-defined diversion function. This function is usually made by a series of process such as surveying directional traffic volumes on several I.C.s, analyzing with a regression method and verifying those results by statistical approaches. The function has been developed by rigorous statistical testings, mainly a regression analysis. This paper presents an effective method in planning and designing new roads, I.C.s and route choice of subway. Finally, some comparisons and improvements and suggested when one uses different types of relevant models and functions.

This linear fractional - quadratic bilevel programming problem, in which the leader's objective function is a linear fractional function and the follower's objective function is a quadratic function, is studied in this paper. The leader's and the follower's variables are related by linear constraints. The derivations of the optimality conditions are based on Kuhn-Tucker conditions and the duality theory. It is also shown that the original linear fractional - quadratic bilevel programming problem can be solved by solving a standard linear fractional program and the optimal solution of the original problem can be achieved at one of the extreme point of a convex polyhedral formed by the new feasible region. The algorithm is illustrated with the help of an example.

Parkinson's disease is characterized by motor disturbances and dopaminergic neurodegeneration. parkin and PINK1, two most critical Parkinson's disease-associated genes, have been intensively studied to address the underlying molecular pathogenesis of the disease, but our understanding still remains unclear. Through generation and characterization of Drosophila mutants for PINK1, we show that PINK1 is required for mitochondrial integrity and function in both indirect flight muscles and dopaminergic neurons. Surprisingly, we find that PINK1 mutants share striking phenotypic similarities with parkin mutants. Indeed, transgenic expression of parkin dramatically ameliorates all PINK1 loss-of-function phenotypes, but not vice versa, implicating that Parkin acts downstream of PINK1 in maintaining mitochondrial integrity and function in both muscles and dopaminergic neurons. With the establishment of the PINK1-Parkin pathway, we are trying to further investigate the detailed molecular relationship between PINK1 and Parkin using both mammalian dopaminergic neuronal cells for biochemical analysis and Drosophila model animal for genetic analysis. We believe that elucidating the molecular function of Parkinson's disease-associated genes will be of big help for the ultimate understanding of the pathogenic mechanism of this disease and also for the development of effective drugs for Parkinson's disease.

Very recently the authors have obtained a very interesting reduction formula for the Srivastava's triple hypergeometric series $F^{(3)}$(x, y, z) by applying the so-called Beta integral method to the Henrici's triple product formula for the hypergeometric series. In this sequel, we also present three more interesting reduction formulas for the function $F^{(3)}$(x, y, z) by using the well known identities due to Bailey and Ramanujan. The results established here are simple, easily derived and (potentially) useful.

Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated glomerulonephritis requires prompt diagnosis and treatment, since renal function at the time of diagnosis is significantly associated with renal outcomes. Here, we report two pediatric patients with ANCA-positive glomerulonephritis initially presenting with hematuria, mild proteinuria, and normal renal function. The first patient with a high myeloperoxidase-ANCA titer (>134 IU/mL) was diagnosed with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis based on renal biopsy and treated with immunosuppressive therapy after 10 months of follow-up. The second patient with a low myeloperoxidase-ANCA titer (11 IU/mL) maintained normal kidney function without medication. Two cases showed different clinical course according to ANCA titer.

The elastic theory of beams is fundamental in engineering of design and structure. In this study, we construct Green's function for inhomogeneous fourth-order differential operators subjected to associated constraints that arises in dealing with dynamic problems in the Rayleigh beam. We obtain solutions for homogeneous and completely inhomogeneous beam problems using Green's function. This enables us to consider rotational influences in determining the eigenfrequency of beam vibrations. Additionally, we investigate the dynamic vibration model of inhomogeneous beams incorporating rotational effects. The eigenvalues of Rayleigh beams, including first-order correction terms, are also computed and displayed in tabular forms.

This paper addresses the design of trTCM (Two Rate Three Color Marker) described in RFC2698. It has proposed for trTCM to be used in Differentiated Service network that provides AF PHB (Assured Forwarding Per Hop Behavior). trTCM is the marker with the metering function, and consists of the token updating function and the marking function. The token updating function uses the dual token bucket. The marking function compares the token values with the length of input packet and then marks the result into IP QoS field (ToS field). In this paper, we design trTCM function and then addresses the scheme to implement it using FPGA technology.
