A combination of Yunsheng Wang circRNAs (circRNA-based combination index) was constructed by logistic regression.

Additionally, the combination of circRNAs was independently correlated with PTC presence. Conclusion: The combination of these altered circRNAs was correlated with PTC and may serve as a novel diagnostic approach. Keywords: circular RNA (circRNA), papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), thyroid nodule, diagnosis, circRAPGEF5, hsa_circ_0058124 Introduction Thyroid cancer (TC) is one of the common endocrine malignancies worldwide, and its incidence has increased rapidly over recent decades, especially papillary TC (PTC).1,2 PTC is the most common histological type of TC and accounts for about 85% of all TCs. Despite synchronous lymph node metastases in around 30% of PTCs, its 5-year overall survival (OS) rate is almost 98% (Howlader et al, SEER Cancer Statistics Review, 1975–2012. National Cancer Institute, Bethesda, 2015). However, only 59% of patients with progressed TC have a 5-year OS rate.3 Although fine-needle aspiration (FNA) presently guides therapeutic strategies of patients with a thyroid nodule, the prevalence of indeterminate and non-diagnostic cytology from FNA is still high at around 30%.3 Therefore, more efforts are Correspondence: Wu Dai; Yonghong Cao Department of Endocrinology, Hefei focused on trying to identify a new approach for the clinical assessment of Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical advanced cancer.

It has created “Ningguo Miracle” since 1990s. Its general economic capacity has been ranked #1 (the first) among all the counties or cities in Anhui Province since 2000. In order to analyze the influencing factors of competitive advantages of Ningguo City and explain “Ningguo Miracle”, this article have evaluated, analyzed and classified the general economic competitiveness of 61 counties (cities) in Anhui Province in 2004, by 14 indexes of evaluation index system. The result showed that compared with other counties (cities) in Anhui Province, Ningguo City has more advantages in competition. The competitive advantage of Ningguo City is due to the productivities, the effect of the second industry and industry, and the investment of fixed assets. Then the influencing factors of Ningguo’s competitiveness in terms of productivity were analyzed with authoritative data since 1990 and a log linear regression model was established by stepwise regression method. The results demonstrated that the key influencing factor of Ningguo City’s competitive advantage was the change of industry structure, especially the change of manufacture structure.

ESEs can be divided into 3 groups according to the geographical coverage of snowfall, using the following criteria to define an ESE: >15 snowfall days, 20 snow-cover/icing days, and 30 cm total cumulated snow depth for an individual winter. The first group covers the whole of Eastern China (East of 105° E), and ESEs occurred in 1654, 1660, 1665, 1670, 1676, 1683, 1689, 1690, 1700, 1714, 1719, 1830−32, 1840, 1877 and 1892; the second group is located mainly in the area south of Huaihe River (~33° N), and ESEs occured in 1694, 1887, 1929, and 1930; and the third group is confined within the central region between Yellow River and Nanling Mountain (roughly 26° to 35° N), and ESEs occurred in 1578, 1620, 1796, and 1841.

    Xuancheng City Government Notice on the Printing and Distribution of the Xuancheng City Non- ferrous Metals Industry Adjustment and Revitalization Plan Xuan Zheng [2009] No. 79 All county, city, and district governments, city departments, and directly-subordinate divisions: Xuancheng City Non-ferrous Metals Industry Adjustment and Revitalization Plan is hereby printed and distributed to you. Please be practical and conscientiously organize its implementation. December 31, 2009 Xuancheng City Non-ferrous Metals Industry Adjustment and Revitalization Plan The non-ferrous metals industry is one of our city’s major basic raw materials industries with relatively great advantages and potential; and one of the priority industries for cultivation in our city. This plan has been formulated in order to promote scientific industry development, improve equipment and technology, increase product variety and added-value, extend industry chains, improve economic efficiency and competency, and facilitate a better and accelerated development of the non-ferrous metals industry. We have formulated this plan on the basis of the Anhui Province Non-Ferrous Metals Industry Adjustment and Revitalization Plan, with consideration for our own situation. The plan is for the period of 2009 to 2011. I. Current Status of our City's Non-ferrous Metals Industry After ten years of rapid growth, the city's entire copper and aluminum processing industries have begun to take shape based on a solid foundation, and a major processing base for scrap copper and aluminum has been formed in Anhui province. The city currently has 21 large non-ferrous metal processing companies with total assets of 1.355 billion RMB. In 2008, the non-ferrous metal industry had a total sales revenue of 13.108 billion RMB, with 24.73 percent consisting of large enterprise sales revenue.
