Cultural background and input familiarity influence multisensory emotion perception.

During multisensory emotion perception, the attention devoted to the visual versus the auditory modality (i.e., modality dominance) varies depending on the cultural background of the perceiver. In the present study, we examined (a) how cultural familiarity influences multisensory emotion perception in Eastern and Western cultures and (b) the underlying processes accounting for the cultural difference in modality dominance. Native Mandarin speakers from China and native English speakers from the United States were presented with audiovisual emotional stimuli from their own culture (i.e., familiar) and from a different culture (i.e., unfamiliar) and asked to evaluate the emotion from one of the two modalities. Across modalities, the emotions were either the same (i.e., congruent, happy face, and happy voice) or different (i.e., incongruent, happy face, and sad voice). When the input was in a familiar cultural context, American participants were more influenced by the visual modality, while Chinese participants were more influenced by the auditory modality. While both groups integrated the incongruent emotion from the irrelevant modality, only the American group integrated the congruent emotion from the irrelevant modality. When the input was in a less familiar cultural context, both groups showed increased visual dominance, but only the Chinese group simultaneously showed decreased auditory dominance. We conclude that cultural background and input familiarity interact to influence modality dominance during multisensory emotion perception.

Death Kongsi and the Survival of Chinese Death Processions in Padang City

This article explains how the ethnic Chinese of Padang maintain the continuity of the death procession in Chinese culture. This article uses a historical approach by utilizing sources in the form of Dutch period documents, organizational documents of Himpunan Tjinta Teman (HTT) and Himpunan Bersatu Teguh (HBT), newspaper news and literature studies on the death processions of ethnic Chinese in Indonesia and outside Indonesia, as well as observations and interviews with HBT and HTT funeral administrators. These sources are used to find facts related to the death processions carried out by ethnic Chinese and the existence of HBT and HTT as institutions organizing Padang Chinese funeral processions. Furthermore, the existing facts are analyzed using historical and ethnographic approaches. The findings of the article show that the ethnic Chinese of Padang still carry out and preserve the implementation of the Chinese cultural death procession in an organizational forum. In this case, the organization's function as the organizer of the death procession for Padang Chinese is the key to the survival and existence of the organization itself. Various Chinese cultures preserved and inherited in the HTT and HBT organizations, including the culture of death, are essential in forming self- and collective identity and solidarity of Chinese community groups in the city of Padang.

Application and validation of a Chinese version of the food choice questionnaire (FCQ)

To improve healthier food choice behaviors, it is necessary to investigate individual’s perceived importance of relevant motives involved in food purchase decisions. In this study, the Food Choice Questionnaire (FCQ) was introduced to the Chinese population, and a more robust FCQ version (C-FCQ) containing 26 items loaded on eight first-order factors (Health, Nature content, Weight control, Mood, Familiarity, Sensory appeal, Convenience, Price) and three second-order factors (Composition concerns, Senses and Emotions, Time and Money saving) was obtained. There were 964 Chinese adults (66.49 % female) in this study, and 69 of whom completed a retest two weeks later. The composite reliability of the first and the second-order factors are above 0.7, and the test–retest reliability was 0.849. The C-FCQ was successfully used to compare differences in food choice motivation among Chinese groups with different demographic characteristics. The results showed that there were significant differences in food choice motivations among the different groups, and Sensory appeal, Health, and Price were the most important factors in Chinese residents’ food choices.

Intrinsic Motivation for Chinese Fansub Groups and Copyright Issues in the Digital Age

The correlation of asparaginase enzyme activity levels after PEG-asparaginase administration with clinical characteristics and adverse effects in Chinese paediatric patients with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.

Studies on asparaginase enzyme activity (AEA) monitoring in Chinese patients receiving PEG-asparaginase remain limited. We monitored AEA in paediatric patients diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) and treated according to the Chinese Children's Cancer Group study protocols, CCCG-ALL-2015/CCCG-ALL-2020 protocols. We measured the AEA at days 7 ± 1 and 14 ± 1 and analysed their association with patient characteristics and PEG-asparaginase-related adverse effects (AEs). We measured 2147 samples from 329 patients. Mean AEA levels (interquartile range) were 931 iu/L (654-1174 iu/L) at day 7 ± 1 and 664 iu/L (463-860 iu/L) at day 14 ± 1. The AEA levels were higher in younger children and increased with the cumulative dose numbers. PEG-asparaginase inactivation rate was 19.1%, and the silent inactivation (SI) rate was 12.5%. Nine patients were identified with allergic-like reactions. Hypofibrinogenaemia, hypertriglyceridaemia, pancreatitis and thrombosis were associated with older age, whereas hypoglycaemia was associated with younger age. The risk of hypertriglyceridaemia and hypoglycaemia increased with cumulative dose numbers of PEG-asparaginase. Except for hypofibrinogenaemia, elevated AEA levels did not increase the risk of PEG-asparaginase-related AEs. Drug monitoring can be utilized as guidance for treatment decision-making. Individualizing asparaginase doses do not reduce toxicities. The treatment target of PEG-asparaginase remains to achieve sustained and adequate activity.

Local Wisdom in Housing and Settlement Planning: A Case Study of Sudiroprajan Chinatown, Surakarta

Local wisdom is essential in urban development planning by bringing cultural values. Local wisdom in housing and settlements forms special characteristics both in spatial and social aspects. Chinatown is a form of residential area created by Chinese community groups. Sudiroprajan Chinatown Village is the center of Chinese settlement which is also located in the economic center area of Surakarta City. The method used in this research is qualitative with literature study, observation, description and analysis of settlement character based on physical and non-physical characteristics. Chinatown Village has a linear pattern following the road and is influenced by feng shui in arranging the interior and exterior of housing. Most residents in Sudiroprajan Chinatown Village work in the trade and services sector, namely by opening businesses in house buildings or at Pasar Gede. The temple is also the worship centre for Chinese residents in Chinatown Village. The local wisdom found in Chinatown Village influences other activities, such as the emergence of economic activities and cultural tourism. This shows that local wisdom influences the character and condition of settlements physically and non-physically.

Trends in cigarette smoking and the risk of incident cardiovascular disease among Asian American, Pacific Islander, and multiracial populations

BackgroundCardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in the United States, and rates of CVD incidence vary widely by race and ethnicity. Cigarette smoking is associated with increased risk of CVD. The purpose of the study was: 1) to examine smoking prevalence over time across Asian and Pacific Islander (API) and multi-race API subgroups; 2) to determine whether the CVD risk associated with smoking differed among these subgroups. MethodsWe identified patients belonging to 7 single race/ethnicity groups, 4 multi-race/ethnicity groups, and a non-Hispanic White (NHW) comparison group at two large health systems in Hawaii and California. We estimated annual smoking prevalence from 2011 through 2018 by group and gender. We examined incidence of CVD events by smoking status and race/ethnicity, and computed hazard ratios for CVD events by age, gender, race/ethnicity, census block median household income, census block college degree, and study site using Cox regression. ResultsOf the 12 groups studied, the Asian Indian and Chinese American groups had the lowest smoking prevalence, and the Asian + Pacific Islander multiracial group had the highest smoking prevalence. The prevalence of smoking decreased from 2011 to 2018 for all groups. Multi-race/ethnicity groups had higher risk of CVD than the NHW group. There was no significant interaction between race/ethnicity and smoking in models predicting CVD, but the association between race/ethnicity and CVD incidence was attenuated after adjusting for smoking status. ConclusionsThere is considerable heterogeneity in smoking prevalence and the risk of CVD among API subgroups.

Navigating the Cyber Front: Belarus' State Control and Emerging Cyber Threats

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the cyber landscape in Belarus, with a focus on the Belarus government's use of cyber activities from an offensive and defensive context, the emergence of opposition cyber activities, and the broader implications for cybersecurity and legal compliance. In the course of the research, researchers try to assess Belarus as a source of cyber-threats, both domestically and to neighbouring states (especially those supporting Ukraine). The first section of the paper outlines the Belarusian government's engagement in cybercrimes against its citizens, especially under President Lukashenko's regime, highlighting extensive online surveillance, repression, and the escalation of these activities following the 2020 presidential elections. In this political context, Belarus is also examined as a country initiating and/or contributing to Information Warfare activities, which are mainly directed at western countries. The second section of the paper delves into Belarus's cybersecurity legal framework, examining various national strategies and concepts, the absence of a formal cybersecurity strategy, and the focus on 'information security' as part of national security. The third section presents case studies of cyber activities in Belarus, contrasting government-backed hacking efforts with those of opposition groups like the Belarus Cyber Partisans. It explores the Partisans' attacks on state infrastructure and information leaks as a form of protest against the government, and the pro-government hackers' disinformation / information campaigns website defacements, and data breaches, particularly targeting Ukraine. This section highlights the evolving nature of cyber conflict in Belarus, where both government and opposition forces use cyber tools for political ends, reflecting broader geopolitical tensions in the region. This part of the report compares the Belarusian pro-government hacktivist and Cyber Partisans groups, their activities and manifestations within the country (inside), as well as the cyber threats they pose to foreign countries. The article attempts to answer the question of what kind of threat Belarus as a country poses in the context of cybersecurity, hybrid-cyber threats. This country is often included in Russian hybrid-cyber threats strategies, Belarus entities also work with Russian and sometimes Chinese groups in undertaking cyber activities against other countries.

Chinese Expert Consensus on Day Surgery Management of Lung Cancer (2024 Edition)

To alleviate the medical burden of lung cancer surgery and facilitate the implementation of the national hierarchical diagnosis and treatment policy, it is imperative to establish a hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system for day surgery of lung cancer. Identifying key quality control checkpoints in day surgery of lung cancer is essential to enhance medical quality, ensure safety, and improve the efficiency of medical services. These efforts aim to uphold a safe and well-structured progression of day surgery practices in China. The Chinese Expert Consensus Group on Day Surgery Management of Lung Cancer has convened national experts in relevant fields and integrated the latest research findings from both domestic and international sources to craft the Chinese Expert Consensus on Day Surgery Management of Lung Cancer (2024 Edition). This consensus is founded on the principles of holistic management of lung cancer surgery and comprehensive patient care throughout their medical journey. It encompasses preoperative assessments, anesthesia protocols, surgical procedures, postoperative care, hospital-community collaboration initiatives, and emergency response strategies. The primary objective of this expert consensus is to furnish research assistance and clinical recommendations to advance the practice of day surgery for lung cancer patients in China. .

Cheong Yoke Choy (1873–1958): A Grandson Looks Back

Colleagues and friends remember Professor Cheong Kee Cheok as an eminently qualified and respected economist, who served first at the University of Malaya and later at the World Bank. Few were aware, however, that he came from a very wealthy and prominent family. His grandfather, Cheong Yoke Choy, was a pioneering and highly successful tin miner and banker in early twentieth-century Kuala Lumpur. However, Professor Cheong rarely talked about his grandfather. It was only a few years before Professor Cheong passed away that he decided to write about the senior Cheong. Part of the reason for eventually working on the biography was because Professor Cheong had, by then, become interested in Chinese family business and had researched and published on several Chinese business groups. He was able, therefore, to see his grandfather within the framework of early Chinese entrepreneurs and the values they held. Equally important, he had family records, as well as access to the memories of surviving family members.

Exploring CYP2D6 polymorphisms and angiotensin receptor blocker response in the Bai hypertensive population.

The CYP2D6 enzyme is crucial for the metabolism and disposition of a variety of drugs. This study was conducted to examine the relationship between CYP2D6 gene polymorphisms and the response to angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB)-based treatment in patients of Chinese Bai ethnicity with hypertension. Seventy-two hypertensive adults from the Chinese Bai ethnic group, exhibiting systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥ 140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥ 90 mmHg, were recruited. Targeted regional sequencing was utilized to genotype single nucleotide polymorphisms in the CYP2D6 gene, aiming to assess their frequency and to evaluate their influence on the therapeutic efficacy of ARB medications. Our research identified nine significant CYP2D6 polymorphisms associated with the efficacy of ARB treatment in the Bai hypertensive cohort. Specifically, patients possessing certain mutant genotype at rs111564371 exhibited substantially greater reductions in SBP and DBP, with P -values of 0.021 and 0.016, respectively, compared to those carrying the wild genotype. Additionally, these mutant genotype at rs111564371 and rs112568578 were linked to approximately 20% higher overall efficacy rates and a 10% increased achievement rate relative to the wild genotype. Our research with the Bai hypertensive group shows that certain CYP2D6 polymorphisms significantly influence ARB treatment outcomes. Mutations at rs111564371 led to better blood pressure control ( P -values: 0.021 for SBP, 0.016 for DBP), improving ARB efficacy by appromixately 20% and increasing treatment goal achievement by 10% over the wild-type genotype. Our investigation into CYP2D6 polymorphisms within the Bai hypertensive cohort marks a substantial advancement towards personalized healthcare, underscoring the pivotal influence of genetic constitution on the effectiveness of ARB therapy.

The additional role of anti-nucleosome antibodies in the prediction of renal damage in systemic lupus erythematosus based on CSTAR (XXV).

The predominant determinant of an unfavorable prognosis among Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) patients resides in the irreversible organ damage. This prospective cohort study aimed to identify the additional value of anti-nucleosome antibodies on organ damage accumulation in SLE patients. Based on the Chinese SLE Treatment and Research group (CSTAR) registry, demographic characteristics, autoantibodies profiles, and clinical manifestations were collected at baseline. Follow-up data were collected by reviewing clinical records. Of 2481 SLE patients with full follow-up data, 663 (26.7%) were anti-nucleosome antibodies positive and 1668 (68.0%) were anti-dsDNA antibodies positive. 764 (30.8%) patients developed new organ damage during a mean follow-up of 4.31 ± 2.60 years. At baseline, patients with positive anti-nucleosome antibodies have a higher rate of lupus nephritis (50.7% vs 36.2%, p < .001). According to the multivariable Cox regression analysis, both anti-nucleosome (HR = 1.30, 95% CI, 1.09-1.54, p < .001) and anti-dsDNA antibodies (HR=1.68, 95% CI, 1.38-2.05, p < .001) were associated with organ damage accumulation. Anti-nucleosome (HR = 2.51, 95% CI, 1.81-3.46, p < .001) and anti-dsDNA antibodies (HR = 1.69, 95% CI, 1.39-2.06, p < .001) were independent predictors for renal damage. Furthermore, the combination of the two antibodies can provide more accurate information about renal damage in overall SLE patients (HR = 3.19, 95% CI, 2.49-4.10, p < .001) and patients with lupus nephritis at baseline (HR = 2.86, 95% CI, 2.29-3.57, p < .001). Besides anti-dsDNA antibodies, anti-nucleosome antibodies can also provide information about organ damage accrual during follow-up. The ability of co-positivity of anti-nucleosome and anti-dsDNA antibodies in predicting renal damage may lead to additional benefits in the follow-up of these patients.

Determinants influencing health-promoting behaviors in individuals at high risks of stroke: a cross-sectional study.

Quit smoking, moderate drinking, exercise, and healthy eating habits are all known to decrease the risk of stroke. As a result, understanding the health behaviors of high risk groups for stroke is crucial. Health behavior is influenced by knowledge, social environment, and health beliefs. However, little research has been done on these relationships. For a better grasp of the relationships mentioned above, consider using the COM-B model (capability, opportunity, motivation, and behavior). The purpose of this study was to investigate the variables related to health behavior and to test the mediating effect of health beliefs. The cross-sectional study was carried out at a physical examination center of a tertiary hospital in Shanghai, China. 986 high-risk populations of stroke have been tested using the Health Behavior Scale (HBS-SP), Stroke Knowledge Questionnaire (SKQ), Health Beliefs Questionnaire (HBS), and Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). The structural equation modeling was used in this study. The scores for MSPSS, SKQ, HBS, and HBS-SP were 60.64 ± 13.72, 26.60 ± 9.77, 157.71 ± 34.34, and 2.46 ± 0.41, respectively. The revised model fits well (approximate root mean square error = 0.042; comparative fit index = 0.946). The health behavior was obviously and positively correlated to social Support, stroke knowledge, and health beliefs. Moreover, health belief has a mediating effect on the relation of social support, stroke knowledge, and health behavior. Chinese high risk groups for stroke have a mediate level of health behaviors. Factors associated with health behaviors are knowledge of stroke, health beliefs, and social support. The COM-B-based model can be used to explain the health behavior of individuals at risk of stroke and to guide the formulation of effective health management programs.

Cultural differences in appraisals of control and posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms

ABSTRACT Background: Appraisals are central to posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Yet, few studies have examined how culture influences the associations between different types of trauma-related appraisals and PTSD symptoms. Objective: This study investigated cultural influences on appraisals of control and their associations with PTSD symptoms. Method: European Australian (n = 140, Mage = 35.80, SD = 12.44; 21 men, 97 women, 20 gender diverse/prefer not to report) and Chinese Australian (n = 129, Mage = 30.16, SD = 8.93, 21 men, 97 women, 20 gender diverse/prefer not to report) trauma survivors completed measures of appraisals, cultural values, and PTSD symptoms. Results: Findings showed that the Chinese Australian group was associated with greater Chinese cultural beliefs about adversity (i.e. emphasizing the value of adversity and people’s ability to overcome adversity) and fewer fatalism appraisals (i.e. appraising one's destiny as externally determined), which in turn were atemporally associated with fewer PTSD symptoms; these atemporal indirect associations were moderated by self-construal and holistic thinking. The Chinese Australian group also reported fewer secondary control appraisals (i.e. attempts to change aspects of the self and accept current circumstances), which were atemporally associated with greater PTSD symptoms. In contrast, the European Australian group was associated with fewer primary control appraisals (i.e. perceived ability to personally change or control a situation), which were atemporally associated with greater PTSD symptoms. Conclusion: These findings highlight the importance of considering the influence of culture on appraisals in PTSD. However, it must be noted that causal relationships cannot be inferred from cross-sectional mediation analyses and thus, future longitudinal research is needed.

Individualized Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment antibiotics for recurrent urinary tract infections: a multicenter, randomized controlled study.

To systematically assess the effects of individualized Chinese medicines on recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTIs). This study recruited 230 adult female patients in the remission phase of rUTIs from five hospitals in China. The patients were randomly allocated to two groups: an individualized Chinese medicine group (n = 114) and a control group (n = 116). Patients in the Chinese medicine group received individualized Chinese herbs, which were evaluated for syndrome differentiation. Patients in the control group received antibiotic treatment combined with a Chinese medicine placebo. The duration of treatment was three courses of four weeks each, with a three-month subsequent follow-up. UTI recurrence rate, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) syndrome scores, 36-item Short Form Survey (SF-36) score, and urine secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) were measured and analyzed before and after treatment in each group. Patients from the Chinese medicine group exhibited significant decreases in both short- and long-term UTI recurrence rates compared with the control group (P < 0.05). The changes in TCM syndrome scores between the Chinese medicine and control groups were significant (P < 0.05). The changes in the average SF-36 quality-of-life scores in the Chinese medicine group were also significantly higher than those in the control group after treatment (P < 0.05). The Chinese medicine group also demonstrated a significant increase in urine SIgA expression. Taken together, compared to the often-used long-term antimicrobial prophylaxis during the remission stage of rUTIs, treating patients with an individualized Chinese medicine decoction by syndrome differentiation could effectively reduce the recurrence rate, improve the patients' TCM syndrome scores and quality of life, and enhance immunity, which in turn helps to prevent antibiotic resistance.

Feasibility Analysis of Higher Education Popularization for Chinese Special Education Groups---Taking Physically Disabled Students as an Example

Based on the analysis of the current situation of special education for people with disabilities in China, it is found that the compulsory education popularization of the Chinese special education group is relatively high, but the higher education popularization for people with disabilities needs to be improved. Improving the popularization of higher education for special groups can improve China's educational environment and also maintain social harmony. This article mainly analyzes the feasibility of popularizing higher education for special education groups in China. The study found that China is paying more attention to vocational education for special education groups, aiming to equip them with skills and serve society. However, at present, insufficient attention is paid to education at the higher education level, and there is a lack of relevant policy guarantees. Therefore, it is recommended that government departments should formulate clear and comprehensive regulations and policies to ensure the equal rights and interests of disabled students in higher education. At the same time, it is also necessary to increase investment in funds, improve the construction of basic education facilities in universities, and provide auxiliary facilities for students with physical disabilities. The training of university teachers should be strengthened, and more attention should be paid to the overall development of disabled students. Psychological education, quality education, and curriculum teaching should all be strengthened.

The linear and curvilinear relationships between assertiveness and mental health: a cross-cultural perspective

ABSTRACT Eurocentric research suggests that higher assertiveness is associated with better mental health. However, it remains unclear whether this linear relationship applies to collectivistic cultures. This cross-cultural study examined the linear and curvilinear relationship between assertiveness and mental health among 410 Chinese and 360 US adults. We examined linear, quadratic, and cubic relationships through hierarchical regression analyses. In the Chinese group, results indicated a significant cubic relationship between assertiveness and both depression (R 2 = 8.82%, p < .001) and aggression (R 2 = 2.46%, p < .001), showing that an optimal assertiveness level was associated with lower depression and aggression. In the US group, higher assertiveness was associated with lower depression (R 2 = 4.24%, p < .001), but not aggression. This study highlights cultural variations in assertiveness-mental health relationships. Mental health professionals should consider cultural norms while providing assertiveness training to diverse individuals.

Ancestry analysis using a self-developed 56 AIM-InDel loci and machine learning methods

Insertion/deletion (InDel) polymorphisms can be used as one of the ancestry-informative markers in ancestry analysis. In this study, a self-developed panel consisting of 56 ancestry-informative InDels was used to investigate the genetic structures and genetic relationships between Chinese Inner Mongolia Manchu group and 26 reference populations. The Inner Mongolia Manchu group was closely related in genetic background to East Asian populations, especially the Han Chinese in Beijing. Moreover, populations from northern and southern East Asia displayed obvious variations in ancestral components, suggesting the potential value of this panel in distinguishing the populations from northern and southern East Asia. Subsequently, four machine learning models were performed based on the 56 AIM-InDel loci to evaluate the performance of this panel in ancestry prediction. The random forest model presented better performance in ancestry prediction, with 91.87% and 99.73% accuracy for the five and three continental populations, respectively. The individuals of the Inner Mongolia Manchu group were assigned to the East Asian populations by the random forest model, and they exhibited closer genetic affinities with northern East Asian populations. Furthermore, the random forest model distinguished 87.18% of the Inner Mongolia Manchus from the East Asian populations, suggesting that the random forest model based on the 56 ancestry-informative InDels could be a potential tool for ancestry analysis.

Offshore Wind Farms and Tourism Development Relationship to Energy Distribution Justice for the Beibu Gulf, China

Energy distribution justice is of primary concern within the energy justice framework and it is crucial to increase public acceptance of offshore wind energy and further advance its development. The rapid development of offshore wind energy in China has inevitably impacted the livelihoods of coastal vulnerable groups (CVGs) engaged in fisheries and tourism in the coastal zone. While current policies often compensate for livelihood losses through cash payments, the fiscal strain caused by COVID-19 renders this approach unsustainable. Consequently, this research pioneers the exploration of Chinese tourist groups’ landscape preferences towards offshore wind farms (OWFs). This study proposes a new approach to enhance OWF landscapes for tourism development, thereby balancing the distribution of costs and benefits between CVGs and tourists. The research focuses on Beihai City in the Beibu Gulf Economic Region, utilizing a combination of Q-methodology and choice experiments that incorporates cut-offs. Answers to eighty Q-methodology questionnaires and 1324 choice experiment questionnaires are obtained. The findings indicate that this region can achieve energy distribution justice by compensating for the livelihood losses of CVGs through tourism. Contrary to traditional assumptions about wind farm noise preferences, Chinese tourists prefer proximity to OWFs, as an appropriate coastal acoustics landscape can enhance their tourism experience. In light of these findings, this paper presents policy recommendations towards energy distribution justice.
