Dual-Track Dynamics and Divergent Upgrading in Apparel in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka
This article examines why Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, despite participating in the same buyer-driven apparel global value chain, have followed divergent upgrading trajectories. It develops a dual-track interaction framework to analyse how different forms of political stability shape the co-evolution of institutions and industrial capabilities. The central argument is that effective political stability is not merely a matter of regime continuity; ra…
Pathogen profiles and co-detection characteristics of acute respiratory infections based on active surveillance in a large district of southern China
Objective The objective of this study is to determine the multipathogen profiles and co-detection characteristics among patients with acute respiratory infections (ARIs) in a large district of southern China. Methods This multicenter study conducted active surveillance of patients with acute respiratory infections (ARIs) at eight sentinel hospitals in a large district of southern China from August 1, 2024, to December 31, 2025. The study employed…
Trends and cross-country inequalities in the global burden of subarachnoid hemorrhage, 1990–2021
Objective This study aimed to analyze global and regional trends in the burden of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) from 1990 to 2021, focusing on incidence, prevalence, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), and mortality, and to examine socioeconomic inequalities across 204 countries and territories using Global Burden of Disease (GBD) data. Methods Utilizing GBD 2021 data, we assessed SAH burden by incidence, prevalence, DALYs, and mortality, str…
The prevalence and associated factors of compassion fatigue among pediatric intensive care unit nurses in Southwest China
Background Compassion fatigue, a form of emotional exhaustion resulting from repeated exposure to patients’ suffering and trauma, is prevalent among nurses in pediatric intensive care units (PICUs). It damages nurses’ health and reduces care safety and quality. This study aims to investigate the prevalence and associated factors of compassion fatigue among PICU nurses in China. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 186 PICU nurses f…
EEG response and productivity outcome under changing indoor environment
Introduction: Indoor environmental quality (IEQ) is a key determinant of health economics and specifically of productivity. In this research, we investigated the effect of three indoor environmental factors (temperature, acoustics, and luminescence) under four different scenarios to generate real-world evidence on how changes in the indoor environment affect productivity-related outcomes. Methods: Two levels of temperature (15-17 °C and 23-25 °C)…
Multi-center disease-specific management system
Introduction: West China Hospital of Sichuan University leads the largest regional medical alliance in Western China, coordinating complex referrals and continuity of care. However, variability in clinical practices and the absence of a unified digital infrastructure have limited standardized disease-specific management across member institutions. This study aimed to develop and implement a standardized digital platform to support interoperable d…
Transmission dynamics and attributable burden of tuberculosis among young and middle-aged adults in urban Shanghai
Background China remains a high tuberculosis (TB) burden country, and large urban centers such as Shanghai continue to face persistent transmission challenges driven by high population mobility. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) provides high-resolution discrimination between recent transmission and reactivation; however, evidence at the district level remains limited. This study aimed to integrate WGS with epidemiological data to characterize local …
Map design from varying narrative standpoints
The debates over the discourse of maps associated with narrative standpoints have been concerned with the cartographic realms. Unfortunately, rare efforts have been spared to make maps in this endeavor. This study takes Guizhou Jinxiu Project as a representative case to explore how narrative maps can be constructed from three distinct standpoints. Our analysis demonstrates that each narrative standpoint generates markedly different thematic conce…
From Crowding to Diminished Tourism Experience
Focusing on the high‐density tourism contexts, this study examines how perceived crowding and scenic attractiveness influence tourism experience value through the mediating roles of mental fatigue and perceived control. Tourists, especially those traveling during peak periods, may encounter challenges in crowded environments. We examine how psychological resilience moderates tourists' responses to perceived crowding and propose an integrated mode…
Perceived Social Support Mediating Caregiver Burden and Mental Health in Schizophrenia Caregivers
Schizophrenia is a severe, chronic mental disorder that imposes a substantial burden on family members, and this burden is strongly correlated with caregivers’ increased levels of anxiety and depression. Conversely, perceived social support functions as a critical coping resource, thereby effectively moderating stress and facilitating better psychological adjustment. This quantitative study tested the mediating hypothesis that perceived social su…
The exploration and global contributions of China's transit-oriented development (TOD) model
This study focuses on China's full-cycle "planning-construction-operation" TOD model, employing empirical analysis of Hangzhou's ten-stage development framework and Beijing's phased optimisation practices to systematically elucidate its theoretical innovations and practical value in addressing challenges of rapid urbanisation. Through case studies of Chinese TOD implementations, it distils a high-density governance paradigm applicable to East Asi…
Morphology-Oriented Layout Optimization for Enhancing Building-Cluster Photovoltaic Potential in Severe Cold Regions
Under China’s carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals, building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) are a key option for low-carbon urban transition. However, how urban morphology shapes effective PV potential in severe cold cities remains poorly understood. Previous work focuses on single buildings or citywide resource mapping and rarely yields actionable planning controls. Using Harbin as a case, this study integrates GIS with explainable machin…

Conversion as Sacred Rupture and Continuity
This article examines how B. R. Ambedkar’s 1956 Buddhist conversion is re-narrativized in Mahar Dalit life writing as a foundational religious event that simultaneously embodies rupture and continuity. Drawing on three Marathi Dalit texts, Akkarmashi, Baluta and The Prisons We Broke, all examined in their published English translations, and situated within the theological framework of Ambedkar’s Buddha and His Dhamma, the study argues that Dalit …
How Fast Is “Sudden”? Time, Body, and the Theory of “Sudden Awakening Sudden Cultivation” from Zongmi to Daeji
The Joseon Seon master Daeji cites the gradual southern pilgrimage of Sudhana as a paradigm of Sudden Awakening Sudden Cultivation, thereby exposing the concept’s intrinsic tension: how can cultivation be characterized as sudden? What’s the exact meaning of sudden? By comparing Zongmi and Yanshou and Daeji, this study finds that: Zongmi employs a samsaric temporal view together with a doctrine of spiritual capacity to dissolve sudden cultivation …
Buddhism as an Epistemological Resource
This article argues that the reconstruction of modern knowledge in late Qing China was not merely the result of the passive importation of Western disciplinary categories, nor simply the natural collapse of the traditional Sibu 四部 system. Focusing on Xia Zengyou 夏曾佑 (1863–1924), it shows how Buddhism, especially Mahayana Buddhist reading traditions and classificatory logic, functioned as an indigenous epistemological resource in the reordering of…
Analysis of the factors associated with meaning in life among people living with HIV/Aids via a structural equation model
Strong evidence shows that meaning in life (MIL) is a pivotal variable for improving the mental health and quality of life among people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). However, the current level of MIL, its associated factors, and the pathways linking those modifiable factors to MIL among Chinese PLWHA are still unclear. This study was a cross-sectional survey among 518 PLWHA from January to May 2025 in Shanghai, China. Measurements were 6 question…
