Authors: Chao Yitian
Published: June 2024

As a category of literature springing up in a transition period, urban literature has more or less ingredients of modernity and territoriality. Hong Kong has unique urban characteristics thanks to its twisted fate and multiculturalism, which are the background of many writers’ works. As a result, works about Hong Kong are excellent materials for research in urban literature. Eileen Chang and Xi Xi, both born in Shanghai and settled in Hong Kong for a long time, have complexes varying from cityscape, portrayal, and living habits, which were affected by colonialism at different times. The great changes in Hong Kong during the long period of colonization are obvious in the works of these two writers, leading to different emotions. This paper chooses one fiction by Eileen Chang and Xi Xi separately to feel the pulse of the city of Hong Kong in different periods, enquiring into the colonial evolution and adding new research ideas for Hong Kong literature. By implementing this study, it can be proven that the city culture of Hong Kong in literature has changed from conflicting to self-consistent under the influence of colonialism.

Divisions of Arts and Sciences in Chinese Society in the Last Thirty Years
Authors: Yang Yufei
Published: June 2024

In China, the perfect distinction between natural science and the humanities has only been around for about 40 years, and it has only been around for 400 years elsewhere in the world. China’s inclusive and diverse culture has resulted in a situation in which many different fields of study successfully intersect and flourish. In the nearly thirty years since establishing the liberal arts and science branch to accommodate social production, Chinese society has regarded the liberal arts and science as opposing one another, and heated debates have always continued. This article will investigate how the arts and sciences are comparable to social production, intending to transform views that are in opposition to one another in society into inclusive and dialectical perspectives. Although it is believed that students in the liberal arts who possess strong professional abilities still have difficulty finding suitable jobs due to the major problems they face, they can obtain the positions they desire by working in fields related to their major. Most students enrolled in liberal arts programs in society are not necessarily engaged in their original professional work. If they have a strong ability to work, they are more likely to become employed in middle and senior management positions. On the other hand, students of liberal arts who have an average level of professional ability are at risk of being unemployed and experiencing other potentially hazardous circumstances almost at any time.

Published: June 2024

Autoimmune is the situation that immune system loses self-tolerance and attacks tissues, causing inflammatory responses. Th17/Treg imbalance is the case that quantity or efficacy of pro-inflammatory helper T cell Th17 is greater than suppressive regulatory T cell, which widely observed in autoimmune diseases. Research on Th17/Treg imbalance initialized from discovering similarity between Th17 and Treg development and activation of their critical transcriptional regulator RORγt and Foxp3. In decades of studies, researchers have successfully identified risk factors and possible reasons inducing Th17/Treg imbalance, including infection, diet, environment and gut microbiota etc. Moreover, several trials of treatment based on knowledge of Th17/Treg imbalance have been successful. However, though several explanations leading to imbalance have risen, detailed signalling pathways and protein mechanisms have remained unknown due to complexity of experimental proof. This review summarizes current researching progress on understanding how Th17 and Treg matures and compares their similarity in differentiation. Moreover, this review explains the role of Th17 and Treg in immune system, and analyzes the detrimental result and reasons for Th17/Treg imbalance, using some systematic autoimmune diseases as examples. Research in Th17/Treg explains why systematic autoimmune diseases and other types of hypersensitivity can prolong excluding genetic deficiency, and discovers optimal targets to ameliorate symptoms. Future studies should explain in detail mechanism which external factors can cause imbalance and why imbalance still generates albeit sufficient conditions for Treg differentiation possess.
Electra complex: alienation in the depths of self-motivated involution
Authors: Li Zongqi
Published: June 2024

In recent years, “involution” as a hotly debated social phenomenon has generally appeared in front of people, and it is widely accepted that involution in general, and passive involution in particular, must be a kind of human alienation. However, there are different arguments for self-motivated involution. The point of this paper is that when a subject’s behavior is defined as “involution,” it is already alienation. Even if this “involution” is full of the subject’s own volition, it is strongly self-motivated and is interpreted in the context of psychoanalysis, i.e., the Electra complex.

Authors: Lugeiyamu Lameck , Mensahn Elvis , Zonou Marius Coffi
Published: June 2024

In recent years, a hot mix asphalt layer, known as an underlayment, has been replacing granular sub-ballast in high-speed and heavy haul tracks, aiming to overcome the limitations of traditional ballasted railways. However, there is a lack of literature regarding the impact of this layer on the slope stability of railway embankments. Ensuring the safety of trains and track availability requires a thorough understanding of embankment slope stability. Hence, this study examined the influence of the underlayment. layer on slope stability in ballasted high-speed railway embankments. Using Slope/W software, twelve embankment models with 2H:1V and 1.5H:1V slopes were analyzed. Half the number of the models were traditional ballasted, while the others incorporated the underlayment layer. Different heights (3, 6, and 8m) were simulated to evaluate the effect on slope stability for both slope levels and track cross-sections. The analysis focused on gravitational force and neglected the increase in pore water pressure. Safety factors for slope slipping surface were used to quantify stability. The findings revealed that the underlayment layer enhances slope stability by 8% to 31% in high-speed railway embankments. However, the degree of improvement decreases with increasing embankment height, and steeper slopes benefit more from the underlayment layer compared to gentler slopes. While these results are promising, further research is needed to investigate the impact of varying pore water pressure on asphaltic tracks.

Several different online reference sources, like Pubmed, SagePub, and Sciencedirect were used to do this. It was decided not to take into account review pieces, works that had already been published, or works that were only half done.
Result: Eight publications were found to be directly related to our ongoing systematic examination after a rigorous three-level screening approach. Subsequently, a comprehensive analysis of the complete text was conducted, and additional scrutiny was given to these articles.
Conclusion: Patients undergoing one- and two-step testing had equal rates of LGA infants, despite a greater likelihood of GDM diagnosis and treatment with one-step testing. Our findings favor two-step testing to minimize the increased burden of GDM diagnosis resulting from one-step testing. However, understanding the long-term implications of such a strategy across the life course is critically important to inform the public health path forward.
Effects of Calcium and Phosphate on Dissolution of Enamel, Dentin and Hydroxyapatite in Citric Acid

The aim was to evaluate the effect of dissolved calcium and phosphate on dissolution rate of enamel, dentin and compressed hydroxyapatite (HA) in citric acid solution as a function of pH. At pH 2.5, dissolution rate of enamel increased significantly by 6% in 20 mmol/L added calcium but, otherwise, dissolution rates of neither enamel, dentin nor HA were significantly affected  by 10 or 20 mmol/L calcium. However, enamel dissolution rate was reduced by > 50 mmol/L calcium. At pH 3.25 and 4.0, 10-20 mmol/L calcium inhibited dissolution of enamel by 29-100% and HA by 65-75% but did not affect dentin dissolution. Phosphate (10 or 20 mmol/L) did not inhibit dissolution of enamel, dentin or HA at any pH, but there were increases in dissolution rate of all three substrates at pH 2.5 and, in one test with dentine (at 20 mmol/L phosphate), at pH 3.25. The results suggest that calcium addition to soft drinks and other acidic products such as medications may reduce erosivity against enamel, provided that pH is not too low; that phosphate would not reduce erosivity against enamel; and that neither calcium nor phosphate at these concentrations would reduce erosivity against dentin.

Východiska: Dotazník WHODAS 2.0 je nástroj pro funkční hodnocení disability, který je celosvětově využíván nejen v rehabilitaci více než 25 let. Unikátní je v tom, že hodnotí disabilitu z pohledu samotných osob s postižením. Nejpoužívanější verze dotazníku obsahuje 36 otázek hodnotících oblasti se zásadním dopadem na kvalitu života pacientů. Hodnotí se celkem 6 klíčových domén: kognice (porozumění a komunikace), mobilita, sebeobsluha, vztahy s lidmi, životní aktivity (škola, práce, domácnost), účast (participace) ve společnosti.
Metody: Dotazník WHODAS 2.0 byl aplikován u celkem 25 iktových pacientů, kteří se zúčastnili 4týdenního neurorehabilitačního denního stacionáře na Klinice rehabilitačního lékařství 1. LF UK a VFN v Praze. Zpracování dat proběhlo pomocí deskriptivní statistiky v prostředí Microsoft Excel 2007. K vyhodnocení byl využit speciální vyhodnocovací formulář sestavený WHO. Jedná se o pilotní studii.
Výsledky: Pilotní studie se zúčastnilo celkem 21 pacientů po prodělané cévní mozkové příhodě. U 12 respondentů došlo po absolvování 4týdenního denního stacionáře ke zlepšení podle dosaženého výsledného celkového skóre. Vyhodnocení jednotlivých domén (D1-D6) ze vstupního a výstupního vyšetření prokázalo zlepšení nebo alespoň nezhoršení u 93 domén z celkově 126 hodnocených.
Závěry: WHODAS 2.0 dotazník je vhodným indikátorem vztahu pacienta ke svému životu s postižením. Dotazník může sloužit také jako ukazatel spokojenosti se schopností zvládat 6 klíčových domén po 4 týdnech intenzivní neurorehabilitace.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji lebih lanjut tentang hubungan antara pengaruh asupan kafein  dan kebiasaan merokok terhadap tekanan kinerja para pekerja di perkotaan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan rancangan penelitian korelasional.  Skala yang digunakan merupakan skala tekanan kerja yang diadopsi dari skripsi Aliska Ramdayani (2017) dan skala perilaku merokok oleh N Wahyu Setiawan (2021) yang masing-masing berjumlah 20 item dengan analisis menggunakan bantuan program JASP. Responden yang berpartisipasi sebanyak 101 pekerja berjenis kelamin laki-laki. Berdasarkan hasil analisis korelasi Pearson menunjukkan hasil bahwa dari uji berdasarkan usia dan penghasilan pada penelitian ini  diperoleh nilai 0.074 > 0.005 yang artinya tidak terdapat hubungan signifikan antara asupan kafein pada rokok dan tekanan kinerja. Perlu adanya pengkajian lebih lanjut terkait pengaruh rokok terhadap produktivitas

This research aimed at figuring out the students’ perceptions on the Javanese English accents through extensive listening video and also identifying the challenges occurred within the process of listening to the Javanese English accents both in extensive listening and interactive speaking classes. This research employed a qualitative research design in line with a case study. The participants of this research were the fourth semester students of English Department of STKIP PGRI Lubuk Linggau who took extensive listening and interactive speaking classes. To collect the data, the researchers used a documentation technique in term of giving questionnaires. To analyze the data, the researchers used a percentage analysis. The results showed that most of students had positive perceptions on the Javanese English accent. They perceived that understanding various kinds of English accents could give them many advantages in their learning process and  the challenges and difficulties that students identified in listening to the Javanese English accent did not make all of them have a negative perception. In conclusion, understanding various kinds of English accents could give them many advantages in learning English.
