Dynamic Research on China's Gini Coefficient [PDF]

Proceedings of the 2016 International Conference on Humanities and Social Science, 2016
Based on the grouped data of resident income in Statistical Yearbook, the paper calculates the China’s Gini coefficients of urban, rural and national residents in the ten years from 2002 to 2011 according to the characteristics of income data of urban residents and rural residents, and finally analyzes the Gini coefficients of urban, rural and national

Revisiting the Nexus Between Trade Liberalisation and Income Inequality: The Case of Sub‐Saharan African Countries

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the impact of trade liberalisation on income inequality across 24 Sub‐Saharan African (SSA) countries from 2000 to 2020. Using IV‐Tobit and 2SLS models, we consistently find that greater trade openness significantly exacerbates inequality in the region. Critically, we document an inverted U‐shaped relationship between trade

Chronic Low‐Dose Unsymmetrical Dimethylhydrazine Exposure in Rats: Multiorgan Mechanisms and Biomarker Identification

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH), a highly toxic rocket propellant with known multiorgan effects, requires urgent characterization of its chronic low‐dose toxicity. Using an integrated approach including exploratory transcriptomics (n = 3/group) and metabolomic (n = 4/group) approaches in male Sprague–Dawley rats exposed to high‐dose ...

Early prediction of multiple organ failure for sepsis patients based on machine learning algorithms

Journal of Intelligent Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract In recent years, there has been a notable rise in sepsis incidence leading to more multiple organ failure and higher mortality. The lack of effective treatments for sepsis highlights the importance of early prediction in preventing multiple organ failure. This study aimed to develop a model for the early prediction of multiple organ failure in

Spatiotemporal Changes in Precipitation Concentration in the Atlantic‐European Region

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study analyses changes in precipitation concentration using ERA5 and E‐OBS datasets. Gini index as a measure of precipitation concentration revealed a gradual expansion of areas with increasing unevenness in precipitation distribution across the Atlantic‐European region since 1961.

Shape Derivatives of the Eigenvalues of the De Rham Complex for Lipschitz Deformations and Variable Coefficients: Part I

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study eigenvalue problems for the de Rham complex on varying three‐dimensional domains. Our analysis includes the Helmholtz equation as well as the Maxwell system with mixed boundary conditions and non‐constant coefficients. We provide Hadamard‐type formulas for the shape derivatives under weak regularity assumptions on the domain and its ...

Linking Environmental Health and Civic Health: An Analysis of Air Pollution and Charitable Giving

Nonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the effect of air pollution on charitable giving. We suggest that the burdens associated with poor air quality are associated with a dampening of civic and philanthropic engagement. Analyzing 12 years of county‐level data from the United States with fixed‐effects OLS and instrumental variables regressions, we identify a ...

Unravelling vicious circles of land use competition and food insecurity in agropastoral rangelands

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract In many regions of the world, the adoption of new livelihood strategies that compete with traditional strategies is one driver of competition over land, resulting in unforeseen impacts on the livelihoods of land users and accelerating land degradation. One example is the Borana Zone in southern Ethiopia, where the expansion of crop cultivation

Alterations in Metabolites Associated With Umbilical Cord Blood in Monozygotic Twins Discordant for Congenital Heart Disease

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
This study found that the metabolomic signature of umbilical venous cord blood in congenital heart disease (CHD) differs from that of healthy monozygotic (MZ) co‐twins. Dysregulation of metabolic pathways like glucose, lipid, and amino acid metabolism, along with altered metabolites, helps understand CHD predisposition.
