Gibbosaccus, Chiritopsis, and Wentsaiboea. Based on phylogenetic analyses of ITS sequences and apparent morphological similarity, we make further transfers of six species of Chirita (C. leprosa, C. lijiangensis, C. ningmingensis, C. luochengensis, C. rongshuiensis, and C. tiandengensis) and four of Chiritopsis (Ch. danxiaensis, Ch. hezhouensis, Ch. jingxiensis, and Ch. longzhouensis) that were neglected or published around or slightly after these recent taxonomic treatments. The proposed nomenclatural changes include one new name, P. pseudolinearifolia, and nine new combinations, P. danxiaensis, P. hezhouensis, P. jingxiensis, P. leprosa, P. lijiangensis, P. longzhouensis,

  • Field Research on Dong Ka Lau: a Case Study of Dong Villages in Liping County
    | N.º 21/22 | 2014 ( 279-284) Field research on Dong Ka Lau: A case study of Dong villages in Liping County CHEN YONGHONG * [ [email protected] ] LU JINHONG ** [ 595352091.qzone.qq.com ] Abstract | As an artistic and cultural phenomenon, Dong Ka Lau (Dong Chorus) ontology and its associated social, cultural and natural environment have begun to concern many experts and scholars at home and abroad, as well as local governments. On the basis of a field survey, this paper makes an investigation as to whether Dong Ka Lau will continue to manifest Dong minority people’s aesthetic consciousness and pursuits amid today’s rapidly developing local tourism eco- nomy. In addition, the influence on contemporary young people is also of great concern. The study found that commercial performance of Dong Ka Lau heritage in some Dong villages has lost its original cultural significance, while in other villages it has been a vital and inspirational tourism product, of which forms and cultural essence can still exist over a prolonged period of time. This research asserts that cultural ecological self-sustainability and identity can be strengthened and nourished by both external regulations on cultural displays as well as the endogenous power of ethnic minority villages. Keywords | Dong Ka Lau, External regulations, Endogenous power, Participation, Zhaoxing. Resumo | Como um fenómeno artístico e cultural, a ontologia de Dong Ka Lau (Refrão Dong) e o seu ambiente social, cultural e natural associado começaram a preocupar muitos especialistas e estudiosos nacionais e estrangeiros, bem como os governos locais. Com base numa pesquisa de campo, este trabalho de investigação tem por objetivo saber se Dong Ka Lau irá continuar a manifestar consciência estética pelos grupos minoritários Dong, num período de rápido desenvolvimento da economia do turismo local.

  • Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor?
    DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7314/APJCP.2015.16.8.3579 Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor? RESEARCH ARTICLE Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor? Wei Deng1&, Long Long2&*, Xian-Yan Tang3, Tian-Ren Huang1, Ji-Lin Li1, Min- Hua Rong1, Ke-Zhi Li1, Hai-Zhou Liu1 Abstract Geographic information system (GIS) technology has useful applications for epidemiology, enabling the detection of spatial patterns of disease dispersion and locating geographic areas at increased risk. In this study, we applied GIS technology to characterize the spatial pattern of mortality due to liver cancer in the autonomous region of Guangxi Zhuang in southwest China. A database with liver cancer mortality data for 1971-1973, 1990-1992, and 2004-2005, including geographic locations and climate conditions, was constructed, and the appropriate associations were investigated. It was found that the regions with the highest mortality rates were central Guangxi with Guigang City at the center, and southwest Guangxi centered in Fusui County. Regions with the lowest mortality rates were eastern Guangxi with Pingnan County at the center, and northern Guangxi centered in Sanjiang and Rongshui counties. Regarding climate conditions, in the 1990s the mortality rate of liver cancer positively correlated with average temperature and average minimum temperature, and negatively correlated with average precipitation. In 2004 through 2005, mortality due to liver cancer positively correlated with the average minimum temperature. Regions of high mortality had lower average humidity and higher average barometric pressure than did regions of low mortality.
