Abstract: Provided is a cultivation method for increasing yield of ratooning rice and reducing Cd content and use thereof, belonging to the technical field of agricultural planting. The cultivation method for increasing yield of ratooning rice and reducing Cd content comprises sowing seeds of ratooning rice in middle and late March of a year, conducting transplantation in middle April of the year for growth in a Cd-contaminated rice field, performing water and fertilizer management of a first season rice, harvesting the first season rice at a position between 1st and 2nd last nodes thereof and performing water and fertilizer management of a second season rice. The cultivation method provided by the present disclosure may significantly increase the yield of ratooning rice, significantly reduce the content of Cd in brown rice of ratooning rice season, and is of great significance for the safe utilization of contaminated farmland.

Abstract: An anti-angiogenic composition is disclosed. The anti-angiogenic composition includes a multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor having a chemical structure: where the tyrosine kinase inhibitor has a crystalline structure having a single crystal polymorph. The anti-angiogenic composition including the tyrosine kinase inhibitor, as characterized by powder x-ray diffraction, has diffraction peaks at 2? of 11.37 150 18.04 242 288 and 24.72. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor may have a particle size of from about 50 to about 300 microns. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor is injectable. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor has an anti-angiogenic efficacy as indicated by a reduction in endothelial cell marker cd31, vascular endothelial-cadherin (VE-CDH), smooth muscle pericyte marker alpha smooth muscle actin (ASMACT), or a combination thereof, as compared to a control composition.

Abstract: The invention relates to substituted pyrazolo piperidine carboxylic acids, their salts and their use for preparing medicaments for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of diseases, in particular of ophthalmologic diseases, including non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR), diabetic macular edema (DME), retinal ganglion cell/photoreceptor neurodegeneration and cataract.

Abstract: In one aspect, GLP-1r agonists including long-acting PEGylated exenatide (NLY01), exenatide, liraglutide, exenatide LAR (long acting), taspoglutide, albiglutide, dulaglutide, lixisenatide, semaglutide, LY2189265 are used to treat ocular ischemic, inflammatory, angiogenic, and/or degenerative conditions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of radio frequency identification, in particular to a temperature measurement and calibration circuit and a passive radio frequency identification tag. Meanwhile, the present invention further relates to a method for performing temperature measurement by using the tag. The temperature measurement and calibration circuit of the tag generates an upper reference voltage value limit and a lower reference voltage value limit, which do not change with temperature, then calibrates the upper reference voltage value limit and the lower reference voltage value limit to a uniform upper voltage value limit and a uniform lower voltage value limit, and eliminates the problem of different reference voltages of tags due to the power supply voltage fluctuation and process deviation. Meanwhile, a temperature measurement voltage generator circuit of the tag generates a calibration voltage value under a uniform calibration temperature.

Abstract: The application relates to systems and methods for managing funds. The system is programmed to receive an instruction about a first exchange-traded fund (ETF) in a first exchange system, identify a second ETF according to the instruction in a second exchange system, determine a first underlying currency for the first ETF and a second underlying currency for the second ETF and a currency exchange rate between the first underlying currency and the second underlying currency, obtain an exchange ratio between the first ETF and the second ETF based on the currency exchange rate and components of the first and second ETFs, and exchange a first number of shares of the first ETF to a second number of shares of the second ETF according to the exchange ratio. Thus, the systems and methods allow investors to exchange shares of one ETF to those of another ETF instantly.
