OBJECTIVE: To introduce the method of analyzing repeated data measured by water maze with SPSS 11.0, and offer a reference statistical method to clinical and basic medicine researchers who take the design of repeated measures. METHODS: Using repeated measures and multivariate analysis of variance (ANOVA) process of the general linear model in SPSS and giving comparison among different groups and different measure time pairwise. RESULTS: Firstly, Mauchly's test of sphericity should be used to judge whether there were relations among the repeatedly measured data. If any (P

To probe into the application of fuzzy cluster in analysis of therapeutic effects of electro-acupuncture at different parameters on adjuvant-induced arthritis (AA) in rats.

ObjectiveTo investigate the radioactive level of gross alpha and beta in drinking water in one district in Shanghai and provide a scientific basis for measuring the level of radiation in case of drinking water pollution due to potential nuclear accidents. MethodsA total of154 samples collected across the district were monitored by using the standard examination method for drinking water - radiological parameters GB/T 5750.13-2006. ResultsAll the samples of the drinking water conformed to the standard for drinking water quality GB 5749-2006. The differences between different seasons were significant. The difference of gross alpha and beta radioactivity of drinking water was significant between the high water period and the dry water period. The former was higher than the latter. ConclusionIt is very important to monitor and study radioactivity of drinking water regularly for the prevention and control of health damage caused by radioactive water pollution.
