A structured teaching module for postoperative follow-up in urology residency training
BACKGROUND: Teaching postoperative follow-up for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is challenging during brief urology rotations. We evaluated a structured module based on a simplified risk model (IMDB: venous invasion, tumor size ≥ 7 cm, systemic symptoms, renal sinus fat invasion) to improve residents' knowledge and clinical decision-making. METHODS: Forty residents who completed the 8-10 h module (2022-2025) were enrolled in this retrospective pre-po…

Air quality and tourism orders
Using a unique dataset collected from a Chinese online travel agency, we empirically examine the causal effect of air quality on tourism orders by employing a two-step regression-discontinuity design (RDD). The RDD serves as a local randomisation approach that allows us to eliminate the endogeneity concern of air quality. We control for meteorological conditions, city and month fixed effects, and additional social factors specific to the tourist …
Tracing the Origin of Rating Bias in a High‐Stakes Chinese–English Translation Test
Human ratings introduce rating bias, thereby undermining the reliability and fairness of the test. While existing studies have identified rating bias as a construct‐irrelevant factor, the sources of rating bias are underexplored. Therefore, this study explored the sources of rating bias of the translation task of a high‐stakes English language test. Based on the performance of 25 students on the translation test task, this study invited nine rate…

Codonopsis pilosula (Dangshen) decoction promotes NR2F2-dependent pulmonary endothelial repair in an H9N2-induced lung injury model
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Codonopsis pilosula (Dangshen) has long been used for conditions related to "lung and spleen qi deficiency", including fatigue and cough/shortness of breath, and is commonly prescribed during convalescence. AIM OF THE STUDY: To test whether a chemically characterized C. pilosula decoction promotes pulmonary endothelial repair after H9N2-induced injury and whether this effect is NR2F2 (COUP-TFII)-dependent.

China in American Abolitionism, 1830–1865
Often neglected by scholars, China actually played a role in America’s abolitionist movement from 1830 to 1865. Anti-slavery crusaders invoked the country to reinforce their moral suasion, which emerged as one major tactic against slavery after the 1830s. Appropriating the prevailing stereotype of China as an uncivilized and pitiable Other, they presented the characterization as a reference to expose the barbarity and hypocrisy of pro-slavery Ame…
Seeking the “us” in our othernesses
This article explores the identity negotiation of transnational Chinese in the U.S., with a focus on the intra-ethnic identity politics among them. This study problematizes the dominant U.S. race logic for its limited capacity in understanding identity, communication, culture, and power in an increasingly interconnected world. It also calls for an alternative theorization of race and identity in the transnational context. In doing so, the author …

Different arts-based interventions for depression and anxiety in college students
Among arts-based interventions for college students, integrating music into cognitive-behavioral therapy may offer the greatest benefit for anxiety, while standalone music therapy appears most effective for depression. These findings support the adoption of music-based programs in university settings and underscore the need for large-scale, rigorously designed trials to confirm these effects and optimize intervention strategies

Why do Chinese postgraduates struggle with critical thinking? Some clues from the higher education curriculum in China
There has been a good deal of research into the problems Chinese postgraduate students studying in English-speaking universities face with regard to critical thinking. This project is an attempt to tackle this issue from a new perspective. It aims to explore how a unique aspect of the university curriculum in China - the so-called 'four treasures' (four compulsory modules of political thought taken by all Chinese undergraduate students: 'The Fund…
Governance and Dissidence in Online Culture in China
The article explores two different articulations of the attitudes of young Chinese netizens towards the state: the neo-nationalist web community, 'Anti-CNN.com'/'April Youth', and the online 'machinema' film, 'Online Gaming Addicts' War'. Both of these online practices are associated with the post-'80 s generation, which I argue is a key constituency in contemporary Chinese internet discourse. Through these case studies, the article explores the …

Implicit measure of suicidal ideation in patients with depression
The death/suicide implicit association test (IAT) may be more resilient to accurately assess suicide risk than self-reports. We examined the IAT in 130 patients with depression and 125 healthy controls, along with self-reported suicidal ideation. IAT could differentiate patients with suicide attempts from patients without suicide attempts and controls. IAT measures were significantly correlated to explicit suicidal ideation and clinical symptoms …

Modeling the Effect of Physical Activity on Obesity in China
Although physical activity has been widely recognized as an important influential factor in determining the risk of obesity, the results in the existing literature empirically examining such issue are mixed. Especially for China, relevant studies are rarely found. One aim of this study is to test the direction of effects between obesity and physical activity. It uses longitudinal data to investigate the relationship and causality between physical…
Inequality in the distribution of health resources and health services in China
Significant inequality in the geographic distribution of health resources is evident, despite a more equitable per capita distribution of resources. Richer people are more likely to use well-resourced hospitals for outpatient care. By contrast, poorer people are more likely to use poorly-resourced primary care institutions for inpatient care. There is a risk of the emergence of a two-tiered health care delivery system

African Americans’ scheme to diffuse the Chinese “threat,” 1865–1882
How to deal with Chinese immigrants was an explosive issue in America in the latter half of the nineteenth century. Most people advocated exclusion, while many were active abusers of Chinese on a daily basis. African Americans were not immune to this controversy. Some followed the lead of whites in bullying Chinese either physically or discursively, becoming cooperators of white agitators. Others protested American discrimination against Chinese …

Nineteen parameters (Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd, Cr, Ni, Hg, As, pH, TDS, Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ , Na+, K+, SO42 - , Cl - , HCO3 - , NO3 - and F - ) were determined in groundwater samples from turfy swamps impacted by highway traffic from Jiangyuan (JY), Longquan (LQ), and Huangsongdian …
Fractionation, Bioaccessibility, and Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals in the Soil of an Urban Recreational Area Amended with Composted Sewage Sludge
A composted sewage sludge (CSS) was added to the soil of an urban garden at 5%, 10%, and 25% ( w / w soil) and stabilised for 180 days. Samples were then collected and analysed for total heavy metal concentrations, chemical fractions, and bioaccessibility, together with some physicochemical properties. The results showed that the total chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn) concentrations were increased with CSS addition rate. The C…
Air Pollutant and Health-Efficiency Evaluation Based on a Dynamic Network Data Envelopment Analysis
