Is there any difference between the owners and the public in their visual impact assessments?--A case study of the front garden of multi-storey residential buildings.

As a special garden unique to China, the front garden of multi-storey residential buildings has certain public attributes but is managed by a single owner. In this study, the front gardens of multi-storey residential buildings in Jiangsu province, China, were set as research object. Meanwhile, the size of garden, plant type, plant vertical structure, color number, plant coverage, and fence material were chosen as the landscape features to be explored.

[Proportion and related influencing factors of HIV-infected individuals that rejecting the antiretroviral therapy among all the HIV infections, Dehong prefecture, Yunnan province].

Objective: To examine the proportion and influencing factors on HIV-infected individuals who rejecting the antiretroviral therapy among all the HIV positives, in Dehong prefecture, Yunnan province.

Methods: A cross-sectional analysis was conducted on all the local HIV-infected survivals aged over 16 year old who refused to receive antiretroviral therapy (ART) by the end of 2013 in Dehong prefecture.

Results: The proportion of those rejecting the ART among HIV-infected survivals and aged over 16 years old in Dehong prefecture, was 7.

[Study on the mortality and risk factors among HIV-infected individuals during 1989 - 2011 in Dehong prefecture, Yunnan province].

Objective: To examine the mortality and risk factors among HIV-infected patients during 1989 - 2011 in Dehong prefecture, Yunnan province.

Methods: All HIV-infected patients reported during 1989 - 2011 in Dehong prefecture who held local residency were included in the study. Mortality rates and cumulative survival rates were calculated.

[Causes of death among HIV-infected patients in Dehong prefecture, Yunnan province: 1989-2010].

Objectives: To analyze the fatality and causes of death related to comprehensive prevention and care programs among HIV-infected patients in Dehong prefecture of Yunnan province, from 1989 to 2010.

Methods: Data on HIV/AIDS death cases in Dehong prefecture were extracted from the "Chinese National Comprehensive HIV/AIDS Prevention and Care Information System" and were analyzed.

Results: From 1989 to the end of 2010, a total of 13 493 HIV/AIDS cases registered as local residents or currently living in Dehong, had been reported.

[Survey on contact tracing of newly reported HIV infections in 2009 in Dehong prefecture, Yunnan province].

Objective: To explore a new method for finding more HIV/AIDS.

Methods: In September 2009, newly reported HIV-infected individuals from May to August, 2009 in Dehong prefecture were asked to participate in a survey which requested demographic characteristics, history of high-risk behaviors and contact information of individuals with whom they had high risky contacts. People with risky contacts with HIV-infected cases (index cases) were also approached to participate in this survey and HIV testing was provided.

[Incidence and risk factors of HIV infection among sero-negative spouses of HIV patients in Dehong prefecture of Yunnan province].

Objective: To study the HIV incidence and risk factors among sero-negative spouses of HIV patients in Dehong prefecture of Yunnan province.

Methods: A cohort of sero-negative spouses of the HIV patients had been developed and followed up since November, 2005. HIV new infections and related behaviors had been investigated every six months.

Separation of fluoroquinolones in acidic buffer by capillary electrophoresis with contactless conductivity detection.

A method to determine five fluoroquinolones (FQs), namely, rufloxacin (RUF), ciprofloxacin (CIP), enrofloxacin (ENO), gatifloxacin (GAT) and moxifloxacin (MOX), in acidic buffer by capillary electrophoresis (CE)-capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection (C(4)D) technique is presented. Separation was carried out in a fused-silica capillary (42 cm x 50 microm) using a buffer composed of 10 mM tartaric acid, 14 mM sodium acetate and 15% (v/v) methanol at pH 3.8.

Capillary electrophoresis-chemiluminescence determination of norfloxacin and prulifloxacin.

A capillary electrophoresis (CE)-chemiluminescence (CL) method for determining norfloxacin (NFLX) and prulifloxacin (PFLX) was developed based on the enhanced CL intensity of the cerium(IV)-sulfite-fluoroquinolone (FQ) reaction sensitized by terbium(III). The separation was conducted in buffer composed of 20 mM sodium citrate, 4 mM citric acid and 10 mM sodium sulfite at pH 6.1.
