central 211Us is in a slightlyfluctuant trend, and the western 211Us is generally in

the downtrend. Inside eastern 211Us, the increasable proportion of JUsfirst

plummets then rises again slowly, that of the HSZUsfirst increases then decreases,

while that of OUs is generally in the downtrend.

4.2.11.1 Analysis on the Improvements of Inputs

(1) Analysis on the full sample

The detailed results of redundant amount or proportion for each DEA-inefficient

211Us are presented in Tables4.67,4.68,4.69,4.70and4.71in Appendix, here we

summarize the results in Tables4.32,4.33,4.34and4.35.
