Review of Dreadful desires : the uses of love in neoliberal China by Zhang, Charlie Yi
No full textThe post-1970s reform and opening up has not only reconnected China to the global economy but also profoundly changed its socio-economic structure and the lived experience of its citizens. Lisa Rofel (2007) has explored how desires are reconstructed in post-reform China, focusing on the way in which public culture showcases the dual (re)shaping of people's changing everyday life experiences by the authoritarian governmentality and the neoliberal economy specific to the Chinese context. In Dreadful Desires: The Uses of Love in Neoliberal China, Charlie Yi Zhang further advances the debate by incorporating affective analyses into his theoretical approach. His work strives to explain how notions of love are reinterpreted in such a way that conceals post-reform China's structural inequalities and neocolonial ambitions, thus rendering legitimate both the government and the market economy's regulations of the population

The effects of disturbance on the microbial mediation of sediment stability
No full textIn coastal areas, biofilms are often subject to disturbance by hydrodynamic forcing, bioturbation and human activities. These factors affect the influences biofilms have on the sediment. To reveal these effects, we studied laboratory-incubated and field-collected biotic sediments reworked by disturbances, and examined their stabilities and three-dimensional microstructures using laboratory annular flume tests and a wet-staining X-ray microcomputed tomography method. We find that, when subject to disturbance, biofilms do not always establish mat-like matrices that firmly armor the seabed and bio-stabilize sediments, but instead, have a range of effects on sediment stability, including both bio-stabilization and destabilization. Disturbance considerably alters microbial influences on sediment stability, but is not the only control. Given equal disturbance, whether or not sediments are bio-stabilized largely depends on the state of bio-sediment formation. At a relatively well-developed state, an organic-rich, adhesive polymer network tightly interconnects large amounts of sediment particles into aggregates, forms complex internal structures, and enhances sediment stability. By contrast, some bio-sediment formations only ever reach a less well-developed state, where scattered organic patches bind relatively few particles into aggregates and reduce sediment stability. Microbial growth likely has two opposing effects on sediment stability, by enhancing either weight/friction or lift/drag on aggregated particles. The former has the positive effect of enhancing sediment stability, whereas the latter can result in greater flow resistance and so have the opposite effect. A conceptual framework is put forward to characterize the different states of bio-sediment formation and their distinct effects on sediment stability.</p
An enhanced author name dataset for PubMed/MEDLINE
No full text<p>The incompleteness of author names is a well-known issue in the MEDLINE database. It was since 2002, the full author name has been systematically indexed in MEDLINE. Although many full author names have been added to MEDLINE, we still found a significant number of abbreviated names in papers published after 2002.</p>
<p>Here we built an enhanced author name dataset for MEDLINE, called EAN, achieved by linking the whole PubMed to other large literature databases and conducting a large-scale name comparison and restoration with obtained multi-sources author names. Our evaluation shows that more than 90% of author names in EAN are complete as compared to the ratio of ~60% in MEDLINE.</p>

Professor Zhang Weihua's Clinical Experience in the Application of Yongquan Acupoint
No full textSummarizing Professor Zhang Weihua's understanding of the bidirectional regulation function of Yongquan Point and his clinical application experience, the author believes that Yongquan is a meeting place of Yin and Yang qi, and both Yin and Yang qi are rooted here, which can be used to balance Yin and Yang, and proposes that Yongquan is the key point of bidirectional regulation, which has the functions of bidirectional regulation, bidirectional lifting, bidirectional replenishing. At the same time, Professor Zhang believes that Yongquan point should be combined with the corresponding stimulation method in the treatment of different diseases, which provides a new idea for the clinical treatment of some difficult diseases
