Predicting 30-day readmission using DRG-based hospitalization data: A large real-world logistic regression model from a tertiary hospital
Background Early unplanned readmission is a key quality indicator in Diagnosis-Related Groups (DRG)–based payment systems. Despite China’s rapid expansion of DRG reform, evidence on hospital-wide predictors of 30-day readmission using large-scale real-world data from tertiary hospitals remains limited. This study developed and evaluated a DRG-based logistic regression model for predicting 30-day readmission. Methods We conducted a single-center r…

Refusing gifts in Chinese: A linguistic analysis integrating interaction ritual, expressions and speech acts
In this study, we examine patterns of gift-refusing in Chinese. Exchanging gifts is a fundamental part of Chinese social interaction which follows ostensible ritual conventions: a gift is often expected to be refused before it can be accepted. We focus on conventionalised expressions through which speech acts realising genuine gift-refusing are indicated. Such expressions have an important interactional function because Chinese ritual gift-exchan…
Complaining in historical Chinese criminal trials
This study examines late-imperial Chinese criminal trials, starting from the observation that, in historical Chinese criminal trials, the speech act Complain is not only surprisingly frequent but is also often realised by the magistrate conducting the trial. We examine Complains in a corpus drawn from late imperial Chinese gong’an 公案 (literally, ‘criminal case’) novels. Whilst fictive in nature, such novels feature courtroom interactions in a tur…

Quality of care for postpartum hemorrhage: A direct observation study in referral hospitals in Kenya
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is the leading cause of maternal mortality in Kenya. The aim of this study was to measure quality and timeliness of care for PPH in a sample of deliveries in referral hospitals in Kenya. We conducted direct observations of 907 vaginal deliveries in three Kenyan hospitals from October 2018 through February 2019, observing the care women received from admission for labor and delivery through hospital discharge. We identi…
The problem of translating Chinese policy-related expressions: A case study of wenming (‘civilised’)
This paper explores the difficulties of translating Chinese expressions frequently used in communicating governmental policies to the public. In particular, we focus on the expression wenming 文明, a term with manifold meanings and uses, which often ends up being translated into English simply as ‘civilised’. This translational convention is problematic because wenming in Chinese tends to be used in many collocations where the English civilised sou…

Trust in God: The Covid-19 Pandemic's Impact on Religiosity in China
Emerging research shows the COVID-19 pandemic has made substantial changes to the religious climate of several nations. Surprisingly, China, the outbreak center of the pandemic, has been scarcely researched. Our study investigates how the COVID-19 pandemic has evoked new religious disaster responses and provided psychological coping mechanisms during the pandemic. We also explore how the pandemic explains surprising rates of religiosity in China.…

The expressions ‘(M)minzu-zhuyi’ and ‘Nationalism’: A contrastive pragmatic analysis
This paper presents a contrastive pragmatic analysis of the use of the expressions (M)minzu-zhuyi 民族主义 and nationalism in the Chinese and U.S. American linguacultures. In research informed by 'Western' interpretations of nationalism, it has often been assumed that nationalism is an essentially negative phenomenon. The present paper argues that any contrastive pragmatic analysis involving the term nationalism needs to critically revisit this assum…
Behavioural insights to support increased consumption of quality protein maize by young children: A cluster randomised trial in Ethiopia
INTRODUCTION: Biofortified crops have tremendous potential to improve child nutrition. We tested whether complementing the distribution of quality protein maize (QPM) with a package of interventions informed by behavioural insights could support greater consumption of QPM by young children and translate into improved growth. METHODS: We conducted a cluster-randomised trial in Oromia, Ethiopia. Clusters of households with a child between 6 and 35 …
Progression of Covid‐19 From Urban to Rural Areas in the United States: A Spatiotemporal Analysis of Prevalence Rates
PURPOSE: There are growing signs that the COVID-19 virus has started to spread to rural areas and can impact the rural health care system that is already stretched and lacks resources. To aid in the legislative decision process and proper channelizing of resources, we estimated and compared the county-level change in prevalence rates of COVID-19 by rural-urban status over 3 weeks. Additionally, we identified hotspots based on estimated prevalence…
Comparison of inpatient distribution amongst different medical alliances in a county: A longitudinal study on a healthcare reform in rural China

Alternations of White Matter Structural Networks in First Episode Untreated Major Depressive Disorder with Short Duration
It is crucial to explore the pathogenesis of major depressive disorder (MDD) at the early stage for the better diagnostic and treatment strategies. It was suggested that MDD might be involving in functional or structural alternations at the brain network level. However, at the onset of MDD, whether the whole brain white matter (WM) alterations at network level are already evident still remains unclear. In the present study, diffusion MRI scanning…
