Carbon emissions permits has its own particularity,and with the development of carbon finance,carbon emissions permits possess the commodity attributes and financial attributes.So its price isn’t determined only by the relationship of commodity supply and demand,but also affected by a variety of factors.But because the transaction data is not available,so the pricing of the carbon emissions permits can not really consider from the angle of the influencing factors of price.Therefore, this paper is on the basis of previous studies using mathematical tools and introducing the option pricing mechanism to study th pricing of China's carbon emissions permits basing on carbon emissions,which is designed for providing reference on the pricing of China's carbon emissions,being of both theoretical and practical significance.

The article presents the literature review and our experience in early diagnosis of multiple sclerosis based on the updated McDonald criteria of 2017. The study included 256 patients with clinic symptoms of probable idiopathic infl ammatory demyelinating disease, including rare and atypical forms of demyelination. As a result of the study the sensitivity and specifi city of the determination of oligoclonal immunoglobulin G in the population of Rostov-on-Don was described for the fi rst time, including dependence of the duration of the disease. The relationship of clinical and MRI features of the fi rst attack of the disease with the probability of determining oligoclonal IgG in the cerebrospinal fl uid is refl ected

ABSTRACT:HLA class II DRBI, DQB1 and DQA1 gene probes were used to study DNA from unrelated French Canadian multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and controls by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis. An MS-associated and linked series of allele-specific RFLPs or allogenotypes was identified among this relatively homogeneous ethnic group; the allogenotypes include DRwl5, DQw6 and a DQA1 allogenotype termed DQαlb. An additional allogenotype which cross-hybridizes with DQA1 and is termed DQA2 upper (DQA2U), was shown not only to be part of the MS-associated extended haplotype, but also to be independently associated with MS in DRwl5-negative patients. Conversely a second DQA2 allogenotype, termed DQA2 lower (DQA2L) and a DQB1 allogenotype (DQw7) linked to DQA2L showed negative correlations with MS. It seems likely that the relationship of the HLA class II gene region to MS is complex and that MS susceptibility may reflect interaction between disease susceptibility and resistance genes.

Psychiatric and cognitive changes are common in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), but their relationship has not received much attention. We studied the relationship between psychiatric symptoms and verbal memory, working memory, and mental speed in 78 patients with MS and 40 healthy control subjects using linear regression analyses. The MS group exhibited impaired performance on all cognitive tests. Apathy was associated with intrusions and depression with impaired memory and mental speed. The association between apathy and intrusions supports the hypothesis that lesions in frontal areas or frontal connections contribute to a specific neuropsychiatric syndrome in patients with MS.

SUMMARY:Ten patients with multiple sclerosis were found to have lived in close proximity in a Nova Scotia farming community of 150 people. All had drunk unpasteurized milk as children, were teetotallers, ate a high animal fat diet, and were well educated. Of greater interest was the observation that six of the ten cases were related in two family groups.The only time all patients lived in the community at the same time was in 1951 and 1952 during a polio outbreak. The relationship of polio to multiple sclerosis bears further study.The average age of the patients when they had measles was 11.8 years. Evidence suggests a link between risk of multiple sclerosis and both late onset of measles and pubertal age. Late onset of measles may be important in this cluster. Further epidemiological studies are needed to examine the age of onset of measles in M.S. cases.
