Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the most common childhood malignancy, is characterized by molecular aberrations. Recently, genetic profiling has been fully investigated on ALL; however, the interaction between its genetic alterations and clinical features is still unclear. Therefore, we investigated the effects of genetic variants on ALL phenotypes and clinical outcomes. Methods: Targeted exome sequencing technology was used to detect molecular profiling of 140 Chinese pediatric patients with ALL.

  • Narrative Inquiry Into Chinese International Doctoral Students
    Volume 16, 2021 NARRATIVE INQUIRY INTO CHINESE INTERNATIONAL DOCTORAL STUDENTS’ JOURNEY: A STRENGTH-BASED PERSPECTIVE Shihua Brazill Montana State University, Bozeman, [email protected] MT, USA ABSTRACT Aim/Purpose This narrative inquiry study uses a strength-based approach to study the cross- cultural socialization journey of Chinese international doctoral students at a U.S. Land Grant university. Historically, we thought of socialization as an institu- tional or group-defined process, but “journey” taps into a rich narrative tradi- tion about individuals, how they relate to others, and the identities that they carry and develop. Background To date, research has employed a deficit perspective to study how Chinese stu- dents must adapt to their new environment. Instead, my original contribution is using narrative inquiry study to explore cross-cultural socialization and mentor- ing practices that are consonant with the cultural capital that Chinese interna- tional doctoral students bring with them. Methodology This qualitative research uses narrative inquiry to capture and understand the experiences of three Chinese international doctoral students at a Land Grant in- stitute in the U.S. Contribution This study will be especially important for administrators and faculty striving to create more diverse, supportive, and inclusive academic environments to en- hance Chinese international doctoral students’ experiences in the U.S. Moreo- ver, this study fills a gap in existing research by using a strength-based lens to provide valuable practical insights for researchers, practitioners, and policymak- ers to support the unique cross-cultural socialization of Chinese international doctoral students. Findings Using multiple conversational interviews, artifacts, and vignettes, the study sought to understand the doctoral experience of Chinese international students’ experience at an American Land Grant University.

    Asian Medicine 7 (2012) 101–127 brill.com/asme Palpable Access to the Divine: Daoist Medieval Massage, Visualisation and Internal Sensation1 Michael Stanley-Baker Abstract This paper examines convergent discourses of cure, health and transcendence in fourth century Daoist scriptures. The therapeutic massages, inner awareness and visualisation practices described here are from a collection of revelations which became the founding documents for Shangqing (Upper Clarity) Daoism, one of the most influential sects of its time. Although formal theories organised these practices so that salvation superseded curing, in practice they were used together. This blending was achieved through a series of textual features and synæsthesic practices intended to address existential and bodily crises simultaneously. This paper shows how therapeutic inter- ests were fundamental to soteriology, and how salvation informed therapy, thus drawing atten- tion to the entanglements of religion and medicine in early medieval China. Keywords Massage, synæsthesia, visualisation, Daoism, body gods, soteriology The primary sources for this paper are the scriptures of the Shangqing 上清 (Upper Clarity), an early Daoist school which rose to prominence as the fam- ily religion of the imperial family. The soteriological goal was to join an elite class of divine being in the Shangqing heaven, the Perfected (zhen 真), who were superior to Transcendents (xianren 仙). Their teachings emerged at a watershed point in the development of Daoism, the indigenous religion of 1 I am grateful for the insightful criticisms and comments on draughts of this paper from Robert Campany, Jennifer Cash, Charles Chase, Terry Kleeman, Vivienne Lo, Johnathan Pettit, Pierce Salguero, and Nathan Sivin.

Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common malignancy in children, while relapse and refractory ALL remains a leading cause of death in children. However, paired ALL samples of initial diagnosis and relapse subjected to next-generation sequencing (NGS) could construct clonal lineage changes, and help to explore the key issues in the evolutionary process of tumor clones. Therefore, we aim to analyze gene alterations during the initial diagnosis and relapse of ALL patients and to explore the underlying mechanism.

These issues manifested in Hong Kong films of the time in the form of film characters’ language ideologies. An analysis of six films reveals three themes: (1) the assumption of mutual intelligibility between Cantonese and Putonghua, (2) the importance of English towards one’s Hong Kong identity, and (3) the expectation that Mainland immigrants use Cantonese as their primary language of communication in Hong Kong. The recurrence of these findings indicates their prevalence amongst native Hongkongers, even in a post-handover context. 1 Introduction The handover of Hong Kong to the People’s Republic of China (PRC) in 1997 marked the end of 155 years of British colonial rule. Within this socio-political landscape came questions of identification and intergroup relations, both amongst native Hongkongers and Mainland Chinese (Tong et al. 1999, Brewer 1999). These manifest in the attitudes and ideologies that native Hongkongers have towards the three most widely used languages in Hong Kong: Cantonese, English, and Putonghua (a standard variety of Mandarin promoted in Mainland China by the Government).

  • Special Issue on Power Quality
    CALL FOR PAPERS Journal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy Special Issue on Power Quality Power quality has been widely recognized as one of important factors that influence smart grid and energy-saving and emission reduction. On one hand, with the rapid growth of science and technology and national economy, impact and non-linear loads from electric power system, metallurgy, chemical industry, electrified railway and household appliances increase, which worsen the traditional problems such as harmonic, voltage fluctuation and flicker, three-phase imbalance. Meanwhile, new energy for output power random fluctuation makes grid frequency deviation, voltage fluctuation and flicker worse. On the other hand, increasing percentages of sensitive loads, based on computer system and electronic devices, which have demanding requirements of steady states, increasingly intensify the relationship between more and more serious harmonic pollution and higher requirements of power quality. Power qualities has been closely related to reliable and secure electric power system, therefore, it’s important to improve power quality so that to guarantee security and economic operation of power grid and electrical equipment. Power quality will be the prime planning topic of this feature and we have invited Luo An, a professor of Hunan University and Josep M. Guerrero, a professor of Aalborg University in Denmark as the guest editor-in-chiefs as well as other experts from China and abroad who are supposed to express their opinions, aiming at bringing attentions

Hong Chengchou was the Ming Viceroy of Jifu and Liaoning 薊遼 總 督 from 1639 until his capture by the forces of Hungtaiji in the fall of Songshan 松山 in 1642. After the rebel occupation of Beijing and the death of the CZ emperor, Hong assumed official appointment under the Qing and went on to become the most important former Ming official to assist in the Qing conquest of all of China (see Li Guangtao 1948a; Wang Chen-main 1999; Li Xinda 1992). Many of his very numerous surviving memorials have been published in MQSL and MQDA. In the present col- lection of 67 memorials, 13 represent his service as Viceroy of Jiangnan and “Pacifier of the South” 招撫南方 from 1645 through 1648.
