The purpose of this paper is to analyse the determinants of the saving behaviour of Vietnamese households and to explore the possible heterogeneity of household saving propensities.,The authors estimate the effects of household characteristics on Vietnamese household saving rates by means of a quantile regression approach using the Vietnam Household Living Standard Survey 2010 data set.,The. There was a significant association between physical activity at visit 1 and eGFR cr at visit 5 (β of 0.104 95% CI, 0.050-0.157 for every 100 MET × min/wk; Fig 2, top row). This association was similar to a more proximal measurement of physical activity at visit 3 (β of 0.102 95% CI, 0.048-0.155) and stronger when measured at visit 5 (β. Angiogenic imbalance contributes to the development of preeclampsia. We evaluated the protein expression of the proangiogenic placental growth factor (PlGF) and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β 1) compared with the anti-angiogenic soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase receptor (sFlt1) and soluble endoglin (sEng) in HIV-infected normotensive and pre-eclamptic pregnancies.
Abstract
We report Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) absorption spectroscopy in four methanol (CH3OH) lines in the z = 0.885 82 gravitational lens towards PKS1830-211. Three of the four lines have very different sensitivity coefficients Kμ to changes in the proton-electron mass ratio μ; a comparison between the line redshifts thus allows us to test for temporal evolution in μ. We obtain a stringent statistical constraint on changes in μ by comparing the redshifted 12.179 and 60.531 GHz lines, [∆μ/μ] ≤ 1.1 × 10-7 (2σ) over 0 < z ≤ 0.885 82, a factor of ≈2.5 more sensitive than the best earlier results. However, the higher signal-to-noise ratio (by a factor of ≈2) of the VLA spectrum in the 12.179 GHz transition also indicates that this line has a different shape from that of the other three CH3OH lines (at >4σ significance). The sensitivity of the above result, and that of all earlier CH3OH studies, is thus likely to be limited by unknown systematic errors, probably arising due to the frequency-dependent structure of PKS1830-211. A robust result is obtained by combining the three lines at similar frequencies, 48.372, 48.377 and 60.531 GHz, whose line profiles are found to be in good agreement. This yields the 2σ constraint [∆μ/μ] ≲ 4 × 10-7, the most stringent current constraint on changes in μ. We thus find no evidence for changes in the proton-electron mass ratio over a lookback time of ≈7.5 Gyr.
