The aim of the paper is to present the basic measures related to the analysis of relationships between quantitative variables used in econometric modelling and their selected applications. The following measures are discussed: the Pearson correlation coefficient, the multivariate correlation coefficient, coefficient of determination, partial correlation coefficient and semi-partial correlation coefficient. A homogeneous approach is applied to the measures presented. Each is defined as a linear correlation coefficient of relevant vectors derived from regression equations. Additionally, mutual relations between the coefficients are described. Bordered matrices have been applied to the calculations, which significantly simplified the process, while the Statistica 13.3 PL program was used to verify the correctness of the calculations. The issue is illustrated in the model of regression of salary growth in Poland in the years 2001–2019 with four covariates, estimated using the least squares method.

AbstractSeveral cytokines and adipokines are related to clinical severity and progression in knee osteoarthritis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the associations of IL-8 with clinical severity and with local and systemic adipokines and cytokines. This is a Cross-sectional study including 115 women with symptomatic primary knee osteoarthritis with ultrasound-confirmed joint effusion. Age, symptoms duration and body mass index were collected. Radiographic severity was evaluated according to Kellgren–Lawrence. Pain and disability were assessed by Lequesne and Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score pain, symptoms and function scales. Three inflammatory markers and five adipokines were measured by ELISA in serum and synovial fluid. Partial correlation coefficient (PCC) and corresponding 95% confidence interval were used to evaluate association. Synovial fluid IL-8 was significantly associated with clinical severity scales. After controlling for potential confounders, associations measured by a Partial Correlation Coefficient (PCC) remained essentially unaltered for Lequesne (PCC = 0.237), KOOS pain (PCC = − 0.201) and KOOS symptoms (PCC = − 0.209), KOOS function (PCC = − 0.185), although the later did not reach statistical significance. Also in synovial fluid samples, associations were found between IL-8 and TNF (PCC = 0.334), IL6 (PCC = 0.461), osteopontin (PCC = 0.575), visfatin (PCC = 0.194) and resistin (PCC = 0.182), although significance was not achieved for the later after statistical control for confounders. None of these associations were detected in serum. In conclusion, IL-8 was associated with clinical severity, inflammatory markers and adipokines in synovial fluid, but not in blood. Although the reported associations are weak to moderate in magnitude, these findings reinforce the notion that local and not systemic inflammation is more relevant to clinical severity in knee OA women with joint effusion.

Abstract. Plasma total T4 (TT4), T3 (TT3), free T4 (FT4), free T3 (FT3), thyroxine binding globulin, hCG, and erythrocyte zinc content were measured in 43 women with uncomplicated pregnancy and in 71 patients admitted with hyperemesis gravidarum. Plasma concentration of thyroid hormones in hyperemesis subjects showed wide variability and 32% of subjects had high TT4 (higher than mean +2 sd of normal pregnant subjects), 33% had high FT4, 20% had high TT3, and 20% had high FT3. Red cell zinc content, a tissue marker of thyroid status, in the hyperthyroxinemic subjects was not different from that of normothyroxinemic hyperemesis subjects or of subjects with uncomplicated pregnancy. The elevated TT4 concentration decreased spontaneously in all but two of the hyperemesis subjects to normal pregnant levels. The plasma FT4 concentration at presentation correlated with plasma hCG in hyperemesis gravidarum (partial correlation coefficient r = 0.411, P< 0.01), but not in normal pregnancy (partial correlation coefficient r = 0.043) after allowing for the effect of gestational age. We conclude that approximately one third of hyperemesis subjects show transient hyperthyroxinemia and suggest that hCG or a molecular variant of hCG may stimulate the thyroid gland.

We intend to develop earphone-type wearable devices to measure occlusal force by measuring ear canal movement using an ear sensor that we developed. The proposed device can measure occlusal force during eating. In this work, we simultaneously measured the ear canal movement (ear sensor value), the surface electromyography (EMG) of the masseter muscle and the occlusal force six times from five subjects as a basic study toward occlusal force meter development. Using the results, we investigated the correlation coefficient between the ear sensor value and the occlusal force, and the partial correlation coefficient between ear sensor values. Additionally, we investigated the average of the partial correlation coefficient and the absolute value of the average for each subject. The absolute value results indicated strong correlation, with correlation coefficients exceeding 0.9514 for all subjects. The subjects showed a lowest partial correlation coefficient of 0.6161 and a highest value of 0.8286. This was also indicative of correlation. We then estimated the occlusal force via a single regression analysis for each subject. Evaluation of the proposed method via the cross-validation method indicated that the root-mean-square error when comparing actual values with estimates for the five subjects ranged from 0.0338 to 0.0969.

772 Background: Oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (PN), for which no therapy has been firmly established, is a critical factor that makes the continuation of chemotherapy difficult. Numbness and pain are currently evaluated using subjective methods such as the visual analog scale (VAS). However, because the assessment of pain can greatly vary depending on the mood and physical state of the patient at the time of assessment, it is best to objectively evaluate pain. Therefore, a method for objective assessment is also required to evaluate drugs designed to ameliorate PN. Pain Vision PS-2100 (PV) is an analytical instrument that was designed to quantitatively and objectively assess sense perception and nociception in a patient. Although it is used in the field of anesthesiology, there have been no reports concerning its use for the assessment of oxaliplatin-induced PN. Methods: The present study examined the correlation of subjective and objective assessment results using VAS and PV, respectively, for cases of oxaliplatin-induced PN. Subjects comprised 58 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent chemotherapy at the Fukuoka University. Results: Both VAS and PV assessments of PN were performed 173 times in total, and partial correlation coefficient analysis adjusted by subject and gender. The VAS and PV mean values of PN were 20.5 (0–100) and 27.9 (0–416), respectively. The partial correlation coefficient was 0.258 (p=0.0053). Conclusions: Although both assessments evaluated the same events, no strong correlation was observed between the results and a weak correlation was observed between VAS and PV. These results suggest that because VAS and PV each measure different factors, both subjective and objective assessments of drugs designed to ameliorate oxaliplatin-induced PN are necessary.

Typical woven fabrics for bedding were selected from the market in this paper. Based on test and analysis results of the structural parameters, the relevant performance indicators were measured in consideration of mechanical properties,comfort and style of fabrics, and the test data were systematically integrated and the relevant quantitative data were ultimately obtained. Meanwhile, Fabric Assurance Tester was used to determine the style of the fabrics and tested indicators were chosen, following with normalized statistics and processing. In addition, SPSS software was applied for the correlation analysis between fabric properties and structural parameters through the correlation and partial correlation analysis.According to the results of correlation coefficient,partial correlation coefficient, the paper revealed the intrinsic link between the fabric’s structural parameters and its properties. As to the main factors of the structural parameters which greatly affect the performance of the fabrics, they will provide scientific evidence for the design and development of fabric.
