Given the background of policy support, this paper uses a data envelopment analysis (DEA) model to study the financial support efficiency for the Chinese wind energy industry from the aspects of capital raise and allocation.
Given the background of investment promotion by governments in real estate in the 1990s, actors distinguished the state, citizens, foreign investors, and (peasant) collectives as four independent and equal subjects when defining land-use rights.

Given the background genome word frequency for each word w in the seed sequence, f(w), we normalized f(w) with respect to all words in the seed sequence, f'(w) = f(w)/∑w f(w), and we scored each word based on the difference between the expected frequency of w and its observed frequency in the WPH set, log (f'(w)/fobs(w)).
Given the background of methodological difficulties, the findings of our study should be interpreted with caution.
Given the background, here we examined the prevalence and genetic characterization of STEC O157 in bovine feces and offal at slaughterhouse in Japan.
