Assessment of ovarian dysfunction induced by environmental toxins
Risk factors and drug resistance of non-tuberculous mycobacteria in HIV/Aids patients
Background The incidence and infection rate of Non-tuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM) are increasing across different regions, with regional variations in the types, distribution, and drug resistance profiles. Our objective was to investigate the risk factors, distribution of predominant Mycobacteria species, and phenotypic drug resistance profiles in co-infected HIV/AIDS patients in southern China. Methods Blood and sputum samples were collected fro…
Calming my heartbeat to enjoy the show”
This article investigates the performability of in-yer-face theater that is recontextualized from the British to the Chinese context. We propose an interdisciplinary approach that uses sociolinguistic tools to empirically examine relevant issues for theater translation studies. By analyzing audience reactions from both online and offline platforms, we find that different audiences in China link this form of theater to context-specific indexical m…
Using icebreaker questions to improve Chinese students' engagement in transnational education – An action research
Enhancing student engagement yields a multitude of benefits for students. It not only improves their satisfaction but also increases their motivation, enriches their learning experience, reduces their sense of isolation and ultimately enhances their academic performance. However, Chinese students in transnational education are known for being silent in the classroom. With overwhelming and consistent research findings in the pedagogical literature…
Efficacy and Risk Factors of Interferon-Gamma Release Assays among HIV-Positive Individuals
Latent tuberculosis is prevalent in HIV-infected people and has an impact on the progression of AIDS. The aim of this study is to match a more accurate IGRA method for the better detection of latent tuberculosis infection in HIV patients. All 2394 patients enrolled were tested using three IGRA methods. The positive rate consistency of pairwise comparison and risk factors were analyzed. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was app…
Tuberculosis among Ambulatory People Living with HIV in Guangxi Province, China
The prevalence of TB among ambulatory people with HIV in Guangxi Province was 14 times higher than the general population, and the annual declined TB prevalence indicated the effectiveness of TB and HIV control and prevention over recent years. The findings proved that symptom screening was insufficient for TB diagnosis and highlighted the importance of systematic TB screening at every visit to a health facility
Faceless power and voiceless resistance
This article examines the applicability to the Chinese context of a western power typology by Fleming and Spicer. In particular, we extend this power framework to exploring the relationship between language policies and organizational power. Drawing from 30 interviews in addition to 6-months of participant observation in a multinational corporation’s subsidiary in China, we question the separability of the different faces of power, and observe th…
The vital role of law in fighting Australia’s food waste
Food waste is a global problem, with significant environmental, social and economic implications. A concerted effort that engages all world governments would be an optimal approach to address food waste. While there has been some international agreement, strategies on how to reduce food waste remain the purview of national, state and local governments. In this article, we explore the Australian government’s commitment to fighting food waste, and …

Did Black Literacy Rise After Soweto
