Return-Migrant Urbanisation in Inland China: The Case of Hubei Province

Since China entered the 21st century, a phenomenon of return migrants moving back from urban to rural areas has been noted, especially in central regions such as Hubei Province. Despite its significance, this phenomenon remains inadequately understood. Employing ethnographic research methods, we conducted multiple rounds of fieldwork in Guangzhou, Wuhan, and three of Wuhan’s neighbouring county-level cities—Hanchuan, Xiantao, and Tianmen—where rising garment industrial enclaves and return migration have been observed. Our findings reveal that the pro-growth policies of megacities like Wuhan and Guangzhou, aimed at industrial transformation while eliminating ‘low-end’ manufacturing, have forced migrants to leave large cities. Among these individuals, return-migrant entrepreneurs (RMEs), comprising entrepreneurs and family workshop owners, have had a profound impact on advancing county urbanisation in Hubei Province. Specifically, we identified three features for return-migrant urbanisation. First, entrepreneurs took their return as an opportunity to expand and promote their businesses, thereby fostering industrialisation in Hanchuan. Second, local state activities in Xiantao, encompassing the construction of highways, logistics systems, and other facilities, coupled with institutionalised arrangements, triggered return migration and township urbanisation. Third, households and individuals with entrepreneurship dominated the development of the informal workshop industry in Tianmen. Overall, our study contributes to the nuanced understanding of new types of urbanisation in China.

Contamination levels of perfluorinated and polyfluoroalkyl compounds in breast milk and assessment of their exposure risk to infants

The purposes of this study are to explore the contamination levels of perfluorinated and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in breast milk and assess their exposure risk to infants. Based on data from a birth cohort study conducted in Yingcheng, Hubei Province, from 2018 to 2021, the contents of 23 types of PFASs in the breast milk of 324 pregnant women were determined using isotope dilution-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Multiple linear regression was then performed to analyze the effects of various demographic characteristics and eating habits on the concentration of PFASs in breast milk. The daily PFASs intake of infants through breast milk was estimated, and the exposure risk of infants was also assessed. The results revealed that 23 types of PFASs in breast milk had good linear relationships in the range of 0.2-100 ng/mL, with correlation coefficients greater than 0.992. The limits of detection were 5-42 pg/mL, the limits of quantification were 15-126 pg/mL, the recoveries were 65.6%-108.1%, and the relative standard deviations were 1.6%-12.8%. Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS), perfluorooctanoate acid (PFOA), and perfluorohexanesulfonic acid (PFHxS), with median concentrations of 200.7, 63.5, and 25.2 pg/mL, respectively, were the main PFASs found in breast milk. The detection rates of these three contaminants were higher than 80%, whereas the detection rates of other compounds were lower than 45%. The results of multiple linear regression showed that older pregnant women and a higher frequency of pickled food intake may be related to increased PFAS levels in breast milk whereas a higher frequency of legume intake may be related to decreased PFAS levels in breast milk. The median estimated daily intakes (EDIs) of PFOS, PFOA, and PFHxS for infants were 25.1, 7.9, and 3.2 ng/(kg·d), respectively. In summary, this study found notable PFAS levels in breast milk in Yingcheng, Hubei Province. Among these PFASs, PFOS, PFOA, and PFHxS were the main contaminants. Maternal age as well as pickled food and legume intake may affect the PFAS level in breast milk. The health risk of PFAS intake through breast milk to some infants is worthy of attention and further study.

The Effect of Familism Emotions on Post-Traumatic Growth Among the Elderly in China: The Mediating Roles of Taoist Personality and Sense of Community.

Post-traumatic growth is a significant social issue in the management of active aging in elderly people. This study investigates the influence of familism emotions on post-traumatic growth (PTG) of the elderly, and the mediating role of Taoist personality and sense of community (SOC) therein, to provide a scientific basis for the development of positive aging in the elderly. A cross-sectional study was conducted in several communities of Hubei Province in China. A total of 338 elderly people were investigated with the Familism Emotion Scale, PTG Scale, Taoist Personality Scale and SOC Scale. SPSS 23.0 was used to derive descriptive statistics and conduct a common method bias test, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple stepwise regression analysis. Mplus 7.3 was used for structural equation modeling to test the significance of parallel mediation effects on the data. The results show that: (1) Familism emotions, Taoist personality and SOC are positively correlated with PTG; (2) Familism emotions, Taoist personality and SOC can all positively predict PTG in the elderly; (3) Both Taoist personality and SOC partially mediated the link between familism emotions and PTG in the elderly. In the context of particularly constraining societal events such as COVID-19, it is necessary to pay careful attention to the impact of external environmental influences upon the elderly, such as family and community, and to encourage elderly people to cultivate a more Taoist personality. The formation of a Taoist personality offers a promising new focus for research in elderly healthcare.

Molecular Investigation of SARS-CoV-2 Circulating in Iranian Bats Using Real-Time RT-PCR for Detection of Envelop (E) Gene of the Virus

Background. The COVID-19 was first reported in 2019 to cause pneumonia in people of Wuhan, Hubei province, China, is now associated with high mortality worldwide. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that SARS-CoV-2 (2019-nCoV) is closely (88%–89% similarity) related to the coronavirus circulating in Rhinolophus (horseshoe bats). More than 50 bat species belonging to eight families have been reported from Iran of which five species belong to the Rhinolophidae family. So far, no study has been done on COVID-19 infection in Iranian bats. Aim. The current study was performed, for the first time, to investigate the infection of Iranian bats with SARS-CoV-2. Methods. This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2021 using 183 bat samples collected from three caves in the south (Fars province) and two caves in the northwest (Kermanshah and Kurdistan provinces) of Iran. Bats’ digestive and respiratory system samples were collected from each bat of different species. The samples were evaluated by real-time PCR and by targeting a 221 bp fragment of the envelop (E) genes of SARS-CoV-2. Results. COVID-19 was detected in alimentary specimens of two of the Mediterranean horseshoe (Rhinolophus Euryale) bats. Conclusion. Although, based on the findings of the molecular evaluation, the infection of bats with COVID-19 was determined in this study, further studies are needed on a larger number of bats, particularly horseshoe bats, to confirm the potential infection of Iranian bats with COVID-19.

Guidelines for Rational Clinical Use of Fentanyl Transdermal Patch.

Pain is one of the most common clinical symptoms of cancer patients, seriously affecting the quality of life of patients and bringing heavy mental and economic burden to families and society. The treatment of cancer pain in China is facing numerous challenges, one of which includes the irrational usage of analgesic drugs in clinical practice. As a strong opioid analgesic, transdermal fentanyl patch has been widely used due to its convenient clinical application and obvious therapeutic effect. Several basic-level hospitals and even general hospitals in China fail to appropriate the application of drugs in clinical application due to the lack of understanding of the pharmacological characteristics and clinical application of fentanyl transdermal patch by medical staff, seriously affecting the treatment quality. Therefore, it is imperative to strengthen the rational use and management of fentanyl transdermal patches. Accordingly, the initiation by the Cancer Rehabilitation and Palliative Treatment Professional Committee of the Hubei Anti-cancer Association launched the compilation of the "Guidelines for Rational Clinical Use of Fentanyl Transdermal Patch" (from now on referred to as the "Guidelines") in Hubei Province, China. The experts in the preparation group are experts in many disciplines, such as medicine, pharmacy, and nursing. The expert group determines the outline, prepares the required regulations, and revises it repeatedly. Moreover, these experts put forward suggestions for revision to strictly control the accuracy and scientific authenticity of the contents of the "Guide". Finally, all experts of the preparation team certify and finalize the draft. This "Guide" prepared by experts of the Cancer Rehabilitation and Palliative Treatment Professional Committee of the Hubei Anti-cancer Association and the expert advisory group with joint efforts, aims to play a positive role in promoting the rational clinical use of fentanyl transdermal patch, reducing the mental and economic burden of patients, and ensuring medical quality and medical safety.

Correlation of ABO Blood Group Susceptibility to Disease Severity of SARS-COV-2: An Original Research

ABSTRACT COVID-19, the Ecumenical Pandemic that hit Wuhan, Hubei Province, China, in 2019 has instigated an emergency situation all over the globe. Current scientific corroborations highlighted the role of zoonotic cross-over species transmission for the spread of the deadly virus SARSCoV2. The proposition of ABO blood grouping to susceptibility for various infectious diseases has been documented in the past since blood group antigens constitute polymorphic traits that are inherited among humans, therefore are frequent targets in epidemiological studies. Aim: To correlate the ABO blood group susceptibility to disease severity in COVID-19-positive cases among Indian populations. Objectives: Association of ABO blood group patterns to disease severity in COVID-19-positive cases. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional, observational study design was conducted among 700 confirmed COVID-19-positive cases admitted to the tertiary health care center in Maharashtra, India. The data collected were subjected to statistical analysis. Results: Blood group ‘A’ positive was frequent (40%) in severe COVID-19 (E group) disease, and ‘O’ positive blood group was frequent in moderate COVID-19 disease (34.62%). Conclusion: ABO Blood grouping can be used as one of the efficient biomarker for COVID-19, thereby providing a new platform for therapeutic applications in the field of research.

Mediating and moderating effects of authoritative parenting styles on adolescent behavioral problems.

This study aimed to analyze how authoritative parenting affects behavioral problems among primary, junior high, and secondary high school students. Today, parental educational anxiety and parent-child relationship conflicts are common in China and are resulting in a high incidence of child behavioral problems. High-quality family education is becoming increasingly important in China. This study sought to provide a reference for developing responsive family education services. A total of 10,441 parents in Hubei Province, including urban and rural areas, were evaluated using the Parents' Education Anxiety Questionnaire, Parental Authority Parenting Questionnaire, Parent-Child Relationship Scale, and Self-Made Behavior Problem Scale to determine the internal mechanisms of child behavioral problems in the family system. To make the sample more representative, this study collected data from primary and secondary schools representative of the southeast, northwest, and center of Hubei Province; further, the number of parents involved in each school was controlled at approximately 300 to ensure that the final sample had analytical value. Educational anxiety directly affected children's behavioral problems and indirectly affected them through the conflicts between parent and child. This conflict partially mediated educational anxiety and child behavioral problems, and authoritative parenting played a significant regulatory role in this relationship. Higher levels of educational anxiety among parents increased the likelihood of a depressed family environment. This can lead to deteriorating parent-child relationships, which can result in children's problem behaviors. Parents can address these problems by changing their approach to education and adjusting their emotions accordingly.

Evolution of dilation with time based on the molecular microkinetics of red-bed argillaceous sandstone in Hubei Province, China

Red-bed argillaceous sandstone is a typical soft rock with swelling characteristics and is prone to cause problems in engineering geology such as dilation deformation when used in high-speed railway subgrades or uneven settlement when used in foundations. This potential impact emphasizes the importance of understanding the long-term dilation and contraction of red-bed soft rocks. To thoroughly study the dilation properties of red-bed soft rock, the evolution of red-bed argillaceous sandstone dilation over time was characterized through a series of tests. The red-bed argillaceous sandstone dilation has a conspicuous time effect, and the dilatability shows an increasing reverse sigmoidal curve with increasing time. The dilation deformation gradually increases with increasing dry–wet cycle number until the shrinkage deformation offsets the dilation deformation, finally reaching a balance between dilation and shrinkage. Here, the microscopic mechanism of red-bed argillaceous sandstone dilation was revealed by qualitative analysis of microscopic unit particles and quantitative analysis of microscopic pores. A logistic evolution model was established based on molecular microkinetics, with the inflection point (t0) and slope (p) of the dilation curve. The mathematical significance and applicability of the logistic model were verified by model comparison, model application and parametric analysis. The dilation scale and velocity were determined to be restrained by the axial load, and the decrease in the gap between dilation-time curves indicated that the inhibitory effect of the axial load on the expansion potential was nonlinear; with the same axial load increment, this effect weakened with increasing load. Finally, a three-dimensional dilation constitutive model considering the microkinetic time model was proposed to amend the traditional one-dimensional dilation model, and the practicality of this three-dimensional model was evaluated against measured data. The results provide a theoretical reference for solving argillaceous sandstone swelling problems in water-rich red-bed rock and determining the long-term deformation mechanism of high-speed railway subgrades.

Is Post-COVID 19 Vaccination Antibody Level Related to Happiness and Stress Hormones?

Aim: The level of antibody production in those vaccinated against coronavirus can be affected by many different situations. There is an important balance between immune response, stress and emotional state. However, it is not known how this situation affects antibody production after vaccination. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between the antibody response induced by the COVID-19 vaccine and the hormones cortisol, a marker of the stress axis, and serotonin, a marker of happiness. 
 Material and Method: Serum cortisol and serotonin levels were analyzed in those who tested positive (n=40) and negative (n=40) for Anti-SARS CoV-2 IgG induced by vaccination. Anti-SARS CoV 2 IgG, cortisol, and serotonin levels were determined by using the ELISA method. The data were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test. The value of p0.05). 
 Conclusion: Consequently, no effect of the stress parameter cortisol and the happiness parameter serotonin, was found in vaccine-induced immunization. It is considered that the different antibody responses in individuals may vary depending on other factors.

Clinical and Economic Insights into Parkinson’s Disease Hospitalization: A Comprehensive Study of 19,719 Inpatient Cases in Hubei Province, China

Objective: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a profoundly incapacitating neurodegenerative disorder, which presents a substantial challenge to the economic sustainability of the global healthcare system. The present study seeks to clarify the factors that contribute to the costs associated with PD hospitalization and analyze the economic burden it imposes. Methods: We examined data of 19,719 patients with a primary diagnosis of PD who were admitted to hospitals in Hubei Province, China, during the study period. Healthcare data were obtained from the database of electronic medical records. The study presents a comprehensive analysis of the demographic characteristics and investigates the factors that affect their healthcare expenditure. Results: The cohort consisted of 10,442 (53.0%) males and 9,277 (47.0%) females. The age-group of 66–70 years experienced the highest incidence of hospitalization among PD patients, with a mortality rate of 0.76‰. The average length of stay for patients was 9.9 ± 8.6 days and the average cost per patient was USD 1,759.9 ± 4,787.7. Surgical interventions were conducted on a mere 2.0% of the total inpatient population. The primary cost component for these interventions was material expenses, accounting for 70.1% of the total. Non-surgical patients primarily incurred expenses related to diagnosis and medication. Notably, surgical patients faced a substantial out-of-pocket rate, reaching up to 90.6%. Surgery was identified as the most influential factor that negatively affected both length of stay and hospitalization costs. Inpatients exhibited significant associations with prolonged length of stay and increased medical expenditure as age increased. Male patients had significantly longer hospital stays and higher medical costs than did females. Additionally, patient’s occupation and type of medical insurance exerted significant effects on both length of stay and medical expense. Conclusion: Age significantly affects PD hospitalization costs. Given the prevailing demographic shift toward an aging population, the government’s medical insurance burden related to PD will continue to escalate. Meanwhile, high treatment expenses and out-of-pocket rates impose substantial financial burdens on patients, limiting surgical intervention access to a small fraction of patients. Addressing these issues is of utmost importance in order to ensure comprehensive disease management for the majority of individuals affected by PD.

A retrospective study of inpatients diagnosed with degloving skin and soft tissue injuries

The overall picture of degloving skin and soft tissue injuries (DSTI) remains a blank space in China. Therefore, a retrospective study was designed to summarize the current situation of this injury. Patients diagnosed with DSTI hospitalized between 2013 and 2018 were identified from the Hospital Quality Monitoring System (HQMS) database, of whom demographics, injury characteristics, hospitalization and cost information were analyzed. A total of 62,709 patients were enrolled in this study. Male sex predominated, with a mean age of 43.01 ± 19.70 years. Peasants seemed to be the most vulnerable. East China and Hubei province had the most patients. The most and least frequently injured anatomic site were lower extremity and torso, respectively. Traffic-related accidents and summer accounted for the highest proportion in terms of injury mechanism and season. The operation rate of DSTI roughly showed a growing trend, and the average length of stay was 22.02 ± 29.73 days. At discharge, 0.93% of DSTI patients ended up in death. Medicine accounted mostly for hospitalization cost, while the proportion decreased year by year. More than half DSTI patients paid at their own charge. This study made a relatively detailed description of DSTI patients nationwide, and might provide enlightenments for better prevention and treatment.

Measuring and decomposing TFP incorporating environmental components: applications for rice farmers in Hubei Province, China

Elucidating the biological characteristics and pathogenicity of the highly virulent G2a porcine epidemic diarrhea virus.

Since the large-scale outbreak of porcine epidemic diarrhoea (PED) in 2010, caused by the genotype 2 (G2) variant of the porcine epidemic diarrhoea virus (PEDV), pig farms in China, even those vaccinated with the G2b vaccine, have experienced infections from the G2a variant, leading to significant economic losses. This study successfully isolated the G2a strain DY2020 from positive small intestine contents (SICs) by blind passage on Vero cells for four generations. The SICs were taken from Daye, Hubei Province, China. The biological characteristics were identified by indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The growth kinetics of the strain on Vero cells were detected by TCID50, and the virus titre could reach 107.35 TCID50 ml-1 (SD: 5.07×106). The pathogenicity towards colostrum-deprived piglets was conducted by assessing faecal viral shedding, morphometric analysis of intestinal lesions, and immunohistochemical staining. The results showed that DY2020 was highly virulent to colostrum-deprived piglets, with severe watery diarrhoea and other clinical symptoms appeared at 6 h post-infection (h p.i.), and all died within 30 h. Pathological tissue examination results showed that the lesions mainly occurred in the intestines of piglets, causing pathological changes such as shortening of intestinal villi. In summary, the discovery of the G2a strain DY2020 in this study is of great significance for understanding Hubei PEDV and provides an important theoretical basis for the development of new efficient PEDV vaccines.

Assessing the thermal risks for residents and visitors in traditional Street-facing Dwellings with Eaves Gallery during an extreme heatwave event

Street-facing Dwelling with Eaves Gallery (SDEG) was built for both commercial activities and residential needs. The Eaves Gallery (EG) and courtyards with small sky view factor (SVF) in those dwellings were shaped to prevent the residences or pedestrians from strong sun radiation, heavy rain, or snow. As a climate-adaptive vernacular architecture, it has lasted for hundreds of years in the large areas along the Yangtze River Basin (YRB) of China. Yet, few studies systematically investigate the thermal conditions of these dwellings and validate their climate resilience quantitatively under heat waves. Concerning the extreme weather caused by climate change, this study investigated indoor, semi-outdoor, and outdoor thermal comfort (OTC) of the SDEG in Xiaohe Town of Hubei province, China during the heatwave event in 2022. While mobile and fixed measurements were carried out to capture the data of thermal environments, the skin temperature measurements were implemented to understand the thermal responses of the households. The results found that SDEG was qualified to help indoor households avoid the heat risk with proper thermal behaviors but cannot provide a safe thermal environment for the pedestrians in the semi-outdoor or outdoor space of the EG street throughout the day. This study demonstrated the negative effects of heatwaves on not only the walking visitors but also the livelihood of the residents, which is an appeal to scholars to attention to the heat risks and thermal behaviors of marginalized groups living in various vernacular buildings within the context of high-temperature scenarios under the heatwave conditions.

Stepwise astronomical tuning of obliquity-driven evaporite cycles in an Eocene salt lake (Jianghan Basin, Hubei Province, China): Implications for middle Eocene East Asian monsoon-like climate evolution

The rhythmic evaporation cycle is an ideal recorder of astronomical cycle signals, but studies on cyclostratigraphy have yet to be directly conducted on halite-rich strata. The Qianjiang Depression of the Jianghan Basin is a representative Eocene East Asian halite-rich basin, and the salt rhythmites that developed therein are important recorders of climate evolution in East Asia. This study selected five wells for basin-scale cyclostratigraphy analysis, taking the Lower Qian 4 member of the Qianjiang Formation as the research object. This study found that the basinal salt lake facies were dominated by obliquity cycles, whereas the shallow-water deposits mainly recorded short eccentricity cycles. The study also found that s3−s6 obliquity cycles could be detected throughout the salt lake sedimentary record. Therefore, a stepwise astronomical tuning scheme was adopted. First, the target intervals in different sedimentary areas were preliminarily tuned to s3−s6 obliquity cycles, and stratigraphic correlation was performed. Then, the tuned data were further adjusted using obliquity cycles to reveal the impact of obliquity on the development of salt rhythmites and establish a floating astronomical time scale (ATS). Sedimentary noise models and pollen analysis further demonstrated that obliquity amplitude modulation cycles drove periodic changes in hydrology and climate. Based on the spatiotemporal distribution of salt rhythmite−rich strata in Paleogene East Asia, this study proposes that the development of rhythmic evaporites can reveal the existence of a monsoon-like climate. Astronomical influence was an important driving force for developing the middle Eocene East Asian monsoon.

Control-oriented planning and development-oriented planning: comparison of planning paradigms and practice in Hubei, China

AbstractThe history of planning development in various countries shows that the core logic of planning is the spiral interweaving of control and development, and constantly makes corresponding adjustments to respond to changes and challenges in social and economic development. Most of the planning in western countries originated from control-oriented paradigm, then integrated development-oriented elements, and finally has evolved into comprehensive coordination-oriented planning paradigm. China’s planning, which originated from development-oriented paradigm, has shifted towards control-oriented planning as represented by territorial spatial planning to tackle issues such as excessive consumption of resources. In the face of economic, social and environmental challenges, China’s urban planning in the future should also move towards a comprehensive balance between control and development. The common thread of control is the sustainable development of economy, society, and environment. The common thread of development is to achieve the Chinese path to modernization. The content of control and development will vary with different spatial scales and time stages. Take Hubei’s practice as an example, planning control is driven by the integrated management of watershed and planning development is led by the synchronization of new industrialization, IT application, new urbanization, and agricultural modernization. Hubei Province seeks to promote high-quality, sustainable development through comprehensive coordination-oriented planning that combines control and development.
