Ambivalências de gênero e sexualidade nas narrativas danmei: uma análise da obra de Mo Xiang Tong Xiu
No full textThe paper discusses the work of Chinese author Mo Xiang Tong Xiu, whose novels have been achieving worldwide success. The author’s work is part of a literary genre known as danmei, which focuses on romantic relationships between male characters, commonly produced and consumed by women. The paper begins by exploring the ambivalences of gender and sexuality present in danmei works, as well as discussing the impact of Chinese state censorship on such content. Next, the text seeks to understand how Mo Xiang Tong Xiu's work incorporates these ambivalences, acting, paradoxically, with the reinforcement and the rupture of gender stereotypes.O presente ensaio discute a obra da autora chinesa Mo Xiang Tong Xiu, cujas novels vêm alcançando sucesso mundial. A obra da autora é parte de um gênero literário conhecido como danmei, que se concentra em relacionamentos românticos entre personagens masculinos, comumente produzido e consumido por mulheres. O texto começa por explorar as ambivalências de gênero e sexualidade presentes nas obras de danmei, além de discutir o impacto da censura do Estado chinês sobre tais conteúdos. Em seguida, através de uma análise descritiva, o texto busca compreender como a obra de Mo Xiang Tong Xiu incorpora essas ambivalências, atuando, paradoxalmente, com o reforço e a ruptura de estereótipos de gênero

Grammaticalization and Language Change in Chinese
No full textThis innovative study on the phenomenon of 'grammaticalization' and its manifestation in Chinese provides new insights into language change in Chinese and a large number of grammatical topics. Grammaticalization occurs in all of the world's languages. Xiu-Zhi Zoe Wu demonstrates general linguistic principles present and active in the phenomenon of grammaticalization whilst also describing the modelling of language in formal theoretical approaches to syntax; so this book fills two major gaps in the current study of linguistics. Grammaticalization and Language Change in Chinese illuminates how studies of language development and change provide special insights into the understanding of current, synchronic systems of language. Using patters from Chinese, the author establishes cross-linguistic generalizations about language change and grammaticalization. This book should be of great interest to Chinese linguists and readers interested in language change in different languages

Parasympathetic neurogenesis is strongly associated with tumor budding and correlates with an adverse prognosis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
No full textTo investigate the frequency of parasympathetic neurogenesis and determine its association with tumor budding and prognosis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).Parasympathetic neurogenesis was defined as the distribution of abnormal parasympathetic nerves in the stroma tissue. Staining of vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT), as a marker for parasympathetic neurogenesis, was performed on a representative specimen of the tumor for 59 PDAC patients with available clinical, pathologic, and follow-up information. Three specimens containing normal pancreatic tissues were stained in parallel. The number of parasympathetic nerve fibers was counted in five high-power microscopic fields (5×0.785 mm(2)). Cut-off values were calculated by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis.VAChT-positive parasympathetic nerve fibers were not seen in the stroma of 3 cases of normal pancreatic tissues. In 59 PDAC cases, the range of parasympathetic neurogenesis was 4-38 fibers/(5×0.785) mm(2), with a median of 18 fibers/(5×0.785) mm(2). Patients with parasympathetic neurogenesis >15 fibers/(5×0.785) mm(2) were defined as the high-density group (39 patients, 66.1%), and those with parasympathetic neurogenesis 15 fibers/(5×0.785) mm(2) as the low-density group (20 patients, 33.9%). The high-density group had a higher occurrence of tumor budding (P=0.001) and a higher rate of early recurrence (P=0.035). Parasympathetic neurogenesis appeared to be an independent adverse prognostic factor [hazard ratio (HR)=2.45, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 1.25-4.81, P=0.009], in addition to American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) stage (P=0.010) and tumor budding (P=0.009).Parasympathetic neurogenesis is strongly associated with tumor budding and correlates with an adverse prognosis in PDAC.grants from China Cancer Research Foundation Y-N2013-008 and the Doctoral Program of the Ministry of Education 20130001110089 to DR Xiu; the National Natural Science Foundation of China 81272709 to W Fu; Peking University Third Hospital Grant Y81524-01 to LF ZhangSCI(E)PubMed中国科技核心期刊(ISTIC)中国科学引文数据库(CSCD)[email protected]

Mapping Research Trends and Hotspots in the Link between Alzheimer’s Disease and Gut Microbes over the Past Decade: A Bibliometric Analysis
No full textAlzheimer’s disease (AD) is a globally prevalent neurodegenerative disorder, the underlying causes and mechanisms of which remain elusive. The emerging interest in the potential connection between gut microbes and AD prompted our study to investigate this field through bibliometric analysis. To examine research trends over the past decade, we collected relevant data using search terms associated with gut microbiota and AD from the Web of Science Core Collection. Our analysis involved various tools, including R (version 4.2.2), VOSviewer (version 1.6.18), CiteSpace software (version 6.2.R1), and an online bibliometric platform. Our findings identified a total of 1170 articles published between 2012 and 2022, indicating a consistent growth of research interest in this area. Notably, China significantly contributed with 40.7% (374) of the publications, signifying its prominent role in this field. Among the journals, the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease published the highest number of articles (57; 4.9%). In terms of author influence, Wang Y, with an H-index of 13, emerged as the most influential author. Additionally, Shanghai Jiaotong University was the most productive institution, accounting for 66 articles (5.6%). Through keyword analysis, we grouped high-frequency keywords into six clusters: gut microbiota, AD, neuroinflammation, gut-brain axis, oxidative stress, and chain fatty acids. Chain fatty acids, oxidative stress, and the gut-brain axis emerged as dominant research topics in the past five years. Recent studies have specifically focused on “nlrp3 inflammasome” and “clearance” (2020–2022), indicating shifting research interests within this field. This bibliometric analysis aims to provide insights into the evolving landscape of research on the gut microbiota and AD. Our results identify key research trends and themes while highlighting potential research gaps. The findings offer valuable perspectives for future investigations, advancing our understanding of AD and exploring potential therapeutic strategies
