The effects of EFL wordlist and proficiency on vocabulary knowledge
Authors: Bao Zhen , Peng Cheng 
Published: June 2024

IntroductionThe Gaokao Word List (GWL) in China serves as a guideline for learning L2 vocabulary, but there are few studies verifying its effect on university EFL learners’ vocabulary knowledge.MethodThis study investigated the effects of the GWL and EFL proficiency on 66 Chinese university EFL learners’ vocabulary knowledge by administering word recognition tests.Results and discussionThe results showed that: (1) the GWL had significant effects on participants’ receptive vocabulary knowledge; (2) EFL proficiency had significant effects on participants’ word recognition, without interaction with the GWL. These findings were discussed through the lens of frequency of exposure, accounting for the overwhelming GWL effect on learners’ vocabulary knowledge. We suggest EFL proficiency be taken into consideration when the GWL is revised in the future, to smoothen the transition in vocabulary learning from high school to university, and improve vocabulary learning efficiency.
Facilitation or hindrance? The impact of downward social comparison on adversarial growth
Authors: Nie Ting , Wu Jing , Yan Qiao 
Published: June 2024

IntroductionWhile adversity can bring great challenges to individuals' life and work, many people also find ways to make positive changes and adapt to these difficult circumstances. Individuals tend to make social comparisons more frequently and intensely when faced with adversity or high stress. The study attempts to examine the influence mechanism of downward social comparison on individual adversarial growth.MethodsBy collecting data from 353 Chinese who have experienced adversities in the past 3 years, the study validates the dual mediating model of gratitude and self-acceptance and explores the moderating effect of interpersonal sensitivity.ResultsThe findings indicate that: downward social comparison can increase the occurrence of adversarial growth by enhancing individuals' self-acceptance and gratitude. Compared to individuals with low interpersonal sensitivity, individuals with high interpersonal sensitivity are more likely to facilitate the occurrence of adversarial growth through self-acceptance and gratitude due to downward social comparison.DiscussionIn the face of adversity, individuals can regain self-confidence and respond positively by comparing themselves to people in worse situations than themselves. In particular, individuals with higher interpersonal sensitivity are more likely to benefit from downward social comparisons and grow from adversity.

Accurately detecting and counting abnormal fish behaviors in aquaculture is essential. Timely detection allows farmers to take swift action to protect fish health and prevent economic losses. This paper proposes an enhanced high-precision detection algorithm based on YOLOv9, named DDEYOLOv9, to facilitate the detection and counting of abnormal fish behavior in industrial aquaculture environments. To address the lack of publicly available datasets on abnormal behavior in fish, we created the “Abnormal Behavior Dataset of Takifugu rubripes”, which includes five categories of fish behaviors. The detection algorithm was further enhanced in several key aspects. Firstly, the DRNELAN4 feature extraction module was introduced to replace the original RepNCSPELAN4 module. This change improves the model’s detection accuracy for high-density and occluded fish in complex water environments while reducing the computational cost. Secondly, the proposed DCNv4-Dyhead detection head enhances the model’s multi-scale feature learning capability, effectively recognizes various abnormal fish behaviors, and improves the computational speed. Lastly, to address the issue of sample imbalance in the abnormal fish behavior dataset, we propose EMA-SlideLoss, which enhances the model’s focus on hard samples, thereby improving the model’s robustness. The experimental results demonstrate that the DDEYOLOv9 model achieves high Precision, Recall, and mean Average Precision (mAP) on the “Abnormal Behavior Dataset of Takifugu rubripes”, with values of 91.7%, 90.4%, and 94.1%, respectively. Compared to the YOLOv9 model, these metrics are improved by 5.4%, 5.5%, and 5.4%, respectively. The model also achieves a running speed of 119 frames per second (FPS), which is 45 FPS faster than YOLOv9. Experimental results show that the DDEYOLOv9 algorithm can accurately and efficiently identify and quantify abnormal fish behaviors in specific complex environments.

During the adaptive evolution of animals, the host and its gut microbiota co-adapt to different elevations. Currently, there are few reports on the rumen microbiota–hepato-intestinal axis of Tibetan sheep at different altitudes. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore the regulatory effect of rumen microorganism–volatile fatty acids (VFAs)–VFAs transporter gene interactions on the key enzymes and genes related to gluconeogenesis in Tibetan sheep. The rumen fermentation parameters, rumen microbial densities, liver gluconeogenesis activity and related genes were determined and analyzed using gas chromatography, RT-qPCR and other research methods. Correlation analysis revealed a reciprocal relationship among rumen microflora–VFAs-hepatic gluconeogenesis in Tibetan sheep at different altitudes. Among the microbiota, Ruminococcus flavefaciens (R. flavefaciens), Ruminococcus albus (R. albus), Fibrobactersuccinogenes and Ruminobacter amylophilus (R. amylophilus) were significantly correlated with propionic acid (p < 0.05), while propionic acid was significantly correlated with the transport genes monocarboxylate transporter 4 (MCT4) and anion exchanger 2 (AE2) (p < 0.05). Propionic acid was significantly correlated with key enzymes such as pyruvate carboxylase, phosphoenolpyruvic acid carboxylase and glucose (Glu) in the gluconeogenesis pathway (p < 0.05). Additionally, the expressions of these genes were significantly correlated with those of the related genes, namely, forkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1) and mitochondrial phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 2 (PCK2) (p < 0.05). The results showed that rumen microbiota densities differed at different altitudes, and the metabolically produced VFA contents differed, which led to adaptive changes in the key enzyme activities of gluconeogenesis and the expressions of related genes.

Проведено исследование связи заболеваний органа зрения и его придаточного аппарата и тревоги/депрессии у пожилых жителей. В исследование были включены 678 участников 60–74 лет популяционного исследования ЭССЕ-РФ3 в Архангельской обл. Использовали анкетирование, включающее Госпитальную шкалу тревоги и депрессии (HADS), и оценку офтальмологического статуса. Повышение шкальных оценок депрессии было связано с характеристиками по полу и возрасту, семейным положением и инвалидностью, повышение уровня тревоги — с женским полом. Уровень тревоги был в среднем на 25 % выше у участников со снижением остроты зрения вдаль до ≤0,5 и не имел независимых связей с заболеваниями глаза. Уровень депрессии в среднем был не выше 33 % при снижении остроты зрения до ≤0,5 у. е. и на 22 % выше — при наличии ретинопатии. Следовательно, тревожность и депрессия у лиц пожилого возраста в большей степени ассоциированы со зрительным дефицитом, чем с наличием офтальмологических заболеваний, лежащих в основе снижения функционального статуса.
A study was conducted to investigate the associations of the diseases of the organ of vision and its accessory apparatus with anxiety and depression in the elderly people. The study included 678 participants of the ESSE-RF3 population study in the Arkhangelsk region in the age of 60–74 years. We used a questionnaire, including the hospital scale of anxiety and depression score (HADS), and the assessment of the ophthalmological status. It was found that all the study participants had diseases of the visual organ. Elevated depression scores were associated with sex, age, marital status (being single), and disability, elevated anxiety scores — with sex. The scores on the anxiety scale were on average 25 % higher in participants whose visual acuity decreased to ≤0,5 units, and showed no independent associations with diagnosed ophthalmological diseases. The scores on the depression scale were on average 33 % higher in participants with visual acuity ≤0,5 units, and 22 % higher in the presence of retinopathy. In conclusion, anxiety and depression in the elderly people were more associated with visual deficits rather than with the presence of ophthalmological diseases underlying a decrease in functional status.

Introduction. Chronic rhinitis is one of the common ENT diseases characterized by nasal congestion, leading to intermittent hypoxia and, consequently, to a disturbance in the balance of prooxidants and antioxidants in the blood plasma, which may reduce the quality of life of patients.Aim. To evaluate the impact of the "lipid peroxidation – antioxidant defense" system indicators on the quality of life of patients with chronic rhinitis of different phenotypes, using the SNOT-22 disease outcome assessment test.Materials and methods. The study groups included 45 patients with chronic allergic rhinitis, 49 patients with chronic vasomotor rhinitis, 32 patients with chronic atrophic rhinitis, 39 patients with chronic infectious rhinitis, and 40 individuals in the control group. Spectrophotometric method in blood plasma determined the indicators of the "lipid peroxidation – antioxidant defense" (LPO-AOD) system: diene conjugates, malondialdehyde, catalase, superoxide dismutase, ceruloplasmin, reduced glutathione, glutathione-S-transferase, glutathione peroxidase, and surveyed using the Russian version of the SNOT-22 questionnaire.Results. For all patients from the study groups with chronic rhinitis, a decrease in the concentration of antioxidant system components was characteristic. An increase in lipid peroxidation was found in chronic allergic, atrophic, and infectious rhinitis, with the most significant disturbance detected in chronic infectious rhinitis. A total of the highest number of disturbances in the LPO-AOD system was found in patients from the study groups with chronic infectious rhinitis – 7, with chronic atrophic rhinitis – 6, with chronic allergic rhinitis – 5, with chronic vasomotor rhinitis – 3. Patients with chronic rhinitis showed a decrease in quality of life across all compared indicators: physical (in all groups) and psychological (in chronic atrophic rhinitis) health components were impaired. A direct correlation (r=0.83; p=0.001) was established between the quality of life and the number of disturbances in the LPO-AOD system, with the most significant decrease in quality of life found in patients from the study groups with chronic infectious rhinitis with the maximum imbalance in the LPO-AOD system.Conclusion. The quality of life of patients is an important health indicator that depends on the disease phenotype and the performance of the LPO-AOD system. Identifying potential mechanisms for the formation of quality of life as an indicator with a predominantly subjective character under the conditions of an objectively existing disease presents a promising approach for defining measures aimed at improving the quality of life.
