Serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a significant marker for clinical diagnosis and prognosis evaluation in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. However, some proportion of liver cancer patients are AFP-negative (AFP ${\leq}$20ng/ml). In order to study the differences between clinicopathological factors and prognosis of alpha-fetoprotein negative and positive patients, a total of 114 cases (41 AFP-negative and 73 AFP-positive) were selected for our research. By systematically statistical analysis, the results demonstrated that compared with AFP-negative patients, AFP-positive examples were more likely to feature cirrhosis nodules, non-complete neoplasm capsules, and a poor Edmondson-steiner grade. Furthermore, AFP-negative patients demonstrated a favorable long-term prognosis. By univariate analysis and multivariate analysis with Cox's proportional hazards model, multiple tumors were found to be independent risk factors for worse survival of AFP negative patients; however, less tumor-free margins, multiple tumors and Edmondson-steiner grades III/IV, proved to be independent risk factors leading to a poor prognosis of AFP positive cases. Finally, we can infer that high levels of AFP signify a highly malignant tumor and unfavorable prognosis.

Using analytical solution of $B({\xi})$, I could find out the characteristics of Submarine's turbulent wake for the given various ${\lambda}$, which were unknown facts before. As the results, $B({\xi}){\approx}{\frac{B({\xi})_{max}}{2}}$ and ${{\int}_{0}^{{\approx}0.6}}B({\xi})d{\xi}{\approx}0.85{{\int}_{0}^{1}}B({\xi})d{\xi}$ in the vicinity ${\xi}{\approx}0.6$, there was some dependencies on the given ${\lambda}$ though. The values of ${\lambda}$, in the range of $4{\leq}{\lambda}{\leq}8$, are more suitable to describe submarine's turbulent wake realistically, due to the bases on the quasi equilibrium state of turbulent wake. ${\lambda}$ mainly affects on the radius and detection range of the submarine's turbulent wake on the surface, however, the speed of submarine mainly affect on the duration of the wake rather than shape. If $7{\leq}{\lambda}{\leq}8$, it can be expected that the turbulent wake can be seen on the surface in the West sea, however, snorkeling(or snorkeled) submarine's wake can be found easily in the East sea.

The evaluation of fire risk for combustible materials was carried out using Chung's equations-X, Chung's equations-XI, and Chung's equation-XII, which were newly established. The fire risk index-XII (FRI-XII) and fire risk rating (FRR) were calculated for specimens including camphor tree, cherry, rubber tree, and elm. The combustion characteristics were determined using a cone calorimeter according to ISO 5660-1. Chung's equations caculated the fire performance index-X (FPI-X) and fire growth index-X (FGI-X) values ranged from 89.34 to 1696.75 s² /kW and from 0.0006 to 0.0107 kW/s² , respectively. In addition, the fire performance index-XI (FPI-XI) and fire growth index-XI (FGI-XI) varied from 0.08 to 1.48 and from 0.67 to 11.89, respectively. The fire risk index-XII (FRI-XII), which is an indicator of fire risk, showed that camphor tree had a value of 148.63 (fire risk rating: G), indicating a very high fire risk. This suggests that combustible materials with a high concentration of volatile organic compounds have lower FPI-X and FPI-XI values, higher FGI-X and FGI-XI values, and consequently higher FRI-XII values, indicating an increased fire risk.

Let M be a real hypersurface with constant mean curvature in a complex space form $M_n(c),c{\neq}0$. In this paper, we prove that if the structure Jacobi operator $R_{\xi}= R({\cdot},{\xi}){\xi}$ with respect to the structure vector field ${\xi}$ is ${\phi}{\nabla}_{\xi}{\xi}$-parallel and $R_{\xi}$ commute with the structure tensor field ${\phi}$, then M is a homogeneous real hypersurface of Type A.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of ($\xi$, ${\zeta}$)-soft ${\Gamma}$-hyperideals and ($\xi$, ${\zeta}$)-soft interior ${\Gamma}$-hyperideals of ${\Gamma}$-semihypergroups by a new approach called soft intersection (briefly, S. I.). It is proved that in regular ${\Gamma}$-semihypergroups the ($\xi$, ${\zeta}$)-soft ${\Gamma}$-hyperideals and the ($\xi$, ${\zeta}$)-soft interior ${\Gamma}$-hyperideals coincide. Further, we introduce the concept of ($\xi$, ${\zeta}$)-soft simple ${\Gamma}$-semihypergroup and characterize the simple ${\Gamma}$-semihypergroups in terms of ($\xi$, ${\zeta}$)-soft ${\Gamma}$-hyperideals and ($\xi$, ${\zeta}$)-soft interior ${\Gamma}$-hyperideals.

After coming to power, Xi Jinping has continuously announced his political conviction, novel view of values, new thoughts and theories through the various kinds of mass media. A comprehensive understanding of these contents allows us to examine Xi Jinping's intention of building Chinese national ideology, and the process of change and settlement of his ideas. This paper aims to explore the following issues based on the Xi Jinping's statements. Chapter 2 examines the process and time-background where the ideas of Marx·Mao Zedong, and China specific ideology of Socialism become the sources of Xi Jinping's Ideology formation. Chapter 3 deals with the contents and function of the China dream which is the fundamental aim of Xi Jinping's Ideology formation. Chapter 4 focuses on the historical value of Xi Jinping's Ideology formation.

We prove the existence of multiple solutions (${\xi},{\eta}$) for perturbations of the elliptic system with Dirichlet boundary condition $$(0.1)\;\begin{array}{lcr}A{\xi}+g_1({\xi}+ 2{\eta})=s{\phi}_1+h\;in\;{\Omega},\\A{\xi}+g_2({\xi}+ 2{\eta})=s{\phi}_1+h\;in\;{\Omega},\end{array}$$ where $lim_{u{\rightarrow}{\infty}}\frac{gj(u)}{u}={\beta}_j$, $lim_{u{\rightarrow}-{\infty}}\frac{gj(u)}{u}={\alpha}_j$ are finite and the nonlinearity $g_1+2g_2$ crosses eigenvalues of A.

The main purpose of this paper is to prove that if a real hypersurfaces M of a complex space form satisfies ${\nabla}_{\xi}S$=0 and $S{\xi}=\sigma\xi$ for some constant on $\sigma$ on M, then the structure vector field $\xi$ is principal, where S denotes the Ricci tensors of M.
