No‐Tillage Reseeding Enhances the Restoration of Degraded Alpine Meadows by Regulating Plant Soil and Bacterial Communities
Soil tillage management is one of the effective measures to restore degraded terrestrial ecosystems; however, the responses of soil and plants to different tillage management in severely degraded alpine meadows have not been well addressed. In this study, three typical native grass species were planted in a degraded alpine meadow using two tillage management measures: the no‐tillage reseeding (RG) and the cultivated grassland (CG). Soil and plant…
Profiling Chinese character acquisition by CSL learners: A cognitive diagnostic analysis
The diagnostic test for Chinese character learning provides students with an accurate report on their character acquisition skills, thereby enhancing targeted instruction. This study constructs a cognitive diagnostic Q-matrix for Chinese characters based on the Chinese Proficiency Grading Standards for International Chinese Language Education , focusing on the learning skills and cognitive processes of Chinese characters as key assessment areas. …
Mineral‐Associated Organic Carbon Dominates Soil Organic Carbon Sequestration Under Increasing Grazing Intensity
Soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration is vital for maintaining the function of grassland ecosystems under grazing conditions, yet the relationship between different carbon fractions and carbon sequestration remains unclear. This study investigated SOC dynamics under a 5‐year controlled grazing gradient (ranging from grazing exclusion to extremely heavy grazing) in the Qilian Mountains, China. It aimed to elucidate the variations in SOC and its …
Developing a ship-shore radio communication technical vocabulary list
The International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) Standard Marine Communication Phrases (SMCP) is a vital component in marine radio communication for vessel traffic service (VTS) operators and other marine personnel, playing a critical role in preventing maritime accidents caused by miscommunication. The current paper presents a Ship-shore Radio Communication Technical Vocabulary List (SRCTVL), which was developed based on an analysis of the IMO SM…
Predicting social isolation in maintenance hemodialysis patients using machine learning methods: A cross-sectional study
The prediction model based on RF has a good effect in identifying the social isolation risk of MHD patients. These findings enable clinicians to stratify high-risk populations and implement timely and targeted intervention measures, effectively reducing the risk of adverse consequences. Future multicenter studies should validate these results in larger cohorts
Establishing Artificial Grassland on Extremely Degraded Alpine Meadow Changes the Soil Fungal Community and Function in the Qilian Mountain Area
The establishment of artificial grasslands is a recognized method for restoring severely degraded alpine meadows, yet its impact on soil fungi remains poorly understood. To investigate the impact of artificial grassland establishment on soil fungal communities, we selected a typical 4‐year‐old artificial grassland as the research subject, with non‐degraded and extremely degraded alpine meadows serving as controls. Soil fungal communities and func…

Health-related quality of life profiles in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: A latent profile analysis
Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common rheumatic disease that most commonly affects joints and negatively impacts individuals' health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Although some studies have explored HRQoL of RA patients, existing studies treated RA patients as a homogeneous group based on their overall HRQoL and ignore the heterogeneity of patients' HRQoL patterns. This study aimed to identify subgroups of RA patients based on thei…
The changes of vegetation community characteristics led to the reconstruction of soil microbial communities and functions during the cultivation of degraded alpine meadows
Unreasonable grassland use has degraded the alpine meadow on the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau in the past half a century, and approximately 32.1% of the degraded meadows degenerated to bare grassland. Artificial grassland reconstruction is a widespread measure for rebuilding the grassland ecosystems of these bare grasslands. However, does the soil microbe community structure improve with the aboveground vegetation restoration? Which microflora are mor…

The eka-vyūha-samādhi in the Saptaśatikā Prajñāpāramitā
「一行三昧」(eka-vyūha-samādhi)は東アジア仏教のさまざまな伝統で重要視されているが,通常,この三昧の異なる側面が強調されている.この「一行三昧」の本来の意味を明確にするために,サンスクリットの原典の定義を検討し,異なる中国語訳と比較する必要がある.この論文は,このような比較を通じて,《七百頌般若経》での「一行三昧」の定義の2つの主要な側面(基本的な実践と哲学的な解釈)を説明する.最初に,「一行三昧」の基本的な実践は,念仏(buddhānusmṛti)に焦点を当てる.観想念仏と名号念仏の要素は含まれている可能性があるが,後者が強調されている.また,「一行三昧」の定義には,「法界」の哲学的理解も含まれている.初期の大乗仏典において,念仏のプロセスは通常,一仏に焦点を当て,すべての仏を見ることを目指すものである.したがって,《華厳経》の「法界」の「一即一切,一切即一」が,念仏の実践における基本的な実践と最終的な目標との関連性を説明するために適用されている

The Soul and Buddha-Nature in Jesuit-Buddhist Debates in the Late Ming Fujian-Zhejiang Regions
The Jesuit missionary in Fujian, Giulio Aleni, ingeniously integrated Christian teaching concerning the soul into the traditional Chinese understanding of human nature. He adeptly reconciled the Christian notion of the soul, created by God, with the neo-Confucian belief in human nature bestowed by heaven. However, during the late Ming period, Chinese Buddhist thinkers held a contrasting perspective rooted in the Buddha-nature theory. According to…
A corpus-based study on aviation English from the perspective of systemic functional linguistics
Aviation English (AE) is a distinct register of English used by pilots and air traffic controllers. As it is one of the contributing factors to aviation safety, ICAO and its Member States’ aviation authorities require the airspace users to have the proficiency in using AE effectively. In recent years, the training and testing have gained more attention, but little work has been done to describe its linguistic features. The study set out to descri…
