Abstract Using the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic as a case study, this paper engages with debates on assimilation of Asian Americans into US mainstream. While burgeoning scholarship holds that Asians are “entering dominant group” or becoming “White,” prevalent practices othering and surging anti‐Asian discrimination since outbreak present challenge to thesis. This explains how anger against China quickly expands American population more broadly. Our explanation focuses...
This paper describes a partnership between Facebook and academic institutions to create global COVID-19 symptom survey. The survey is available in 56 languages. A representative sample of users invited on daily basis report on symptoms, social distancing behavior, mental health issues, and financial constraints. provides weights reduce nonresponse and coverage bias. Privacy protection disclosureavoidance mechanisms are implemented by both partners meet global policy industry requirements....
Most scholarship on contentious politics in authoritarian regimes focuses severe repression and transgressive protest (e.g. revolt), suggesting a zero-sum game played by the state challengers. However, burgeoning literature suggests that less brutal forms of states have emerged recent decades protesters these countries tend to limit their challenges, avoiding direct confrontation with authorities. If so, can notion truly capture nuances complexities regimes? Taking case China, this article...
Sequencing of the Populus trichocarpa genome creates an opportunity to describe transcriptome a woody perennial species and establish atlas gene expression. A comparison with transcriptomes other can also define genes that are conserved or diverging in plant species. Here, vegetative organs P. reference genotype Nisqually-1 was characterized. Arabidopsis thaliana orthologs used distinguish functional categories may be evolving differently annual herbaceous core set expressed common among...
Can citizens in an authoritarian country like China influence policy implementation? Two types of scholarship indicate ways that they can: The first proposes implementation is carried out through a fragmented system requires consultation and cooperation among various government units, this amenable to pressure from outside groups. second examines institutional channels designed handle grievances bridge communication between the authorities. In paper, I emphasize link these two bodies...
Regarding media framing of protests, current studies have primarily focused on the negative side tools, that is, marginalization devices news employ to belittle and demonize a protest. Yet little scholarship has scrutinized positive i.e., affirmation mass adopt convey sympathy for approval Through comparing U.S. coverage two recent large anti-government movements taking place in China France—the sharing similarities vital factors impacting coverage—this paper illustrates series devices,...
Classical compartmental models in epidemiology often struggle to accurately capture real-world dynamics due their inability address the inherent heterogeneity of populations. In this paper, we introduce a novel approach that incorporates through mobility variable, transforming traditional ODE system into integro-differential equations describe population densities across different compartments. Our results show that, for same basic reproduction number, our mobility-based model predicts...
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) represent the most widespread type of DNA sequence variation in human genome and they have recently emerged as valuable genetic markers for revealing architecture complex traits terms combination sequence. Here, we extend an algorithmic model haplotype analysis SNPs to estimate effects imprinting expressed at level. The provides a general procedure identifying number types optimal variants that are differently due their parental origin. is used analyze...
Plasma HIV-1 RNA levels and CD4+ T cell counts in patients are associated with their progression rates to AIDS. After initiation of highly active antiretroviral therapy, these two variables display time-dependent dynamic changes particular patterns well described by mathematical functions. In this article, we present a unifying statistical model for simultaneously characterizing specific quantitative trait loci hosts that govern different processes loads counts. The proposed integrates...
Abstract Current literature often links contentious protests with media hostility, showing that news outlets typically portray involving disruption or violence in a negative light. Contesting this literature, work introduces an intersectional approach—focusing on geopolitics, protest goals and actions—to theorize divergences the framing of entail violence. To illustrate these divergences, we use mixed methods—network analysis content analysis—to examine original dataset U.S. coverage three...
Introduction Medical postgraduates generally experience high levels of depression and anxiety. Previous studies have investigated the impact various achievement motivations on depression/anxiety among medical students. Methods This study focused self-esteem perceived stress, examining internal mechanisms through which motivation affects depression/anxiety. 530 postgraduate students (66.04% female 33.96% male) were administered Achievement Goal Orientation Scale, Self-Esteem Perceived Stress...
The progression of HIV disease has been markedly slowed by the use highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). However, substantial genetic variation was observed to occur among different people in decay rate viral loads caused HAART. characterization specific genes involved dynamics is central design personalized drugs for prevention this disease, but usually cannot be addressed experimental methods alone rather than require help mathematical and statistical methods. A novel model...
Understanding the genetic machinery of plant growth and development is fundamental importance in agriculture biology. Recently, a novel statistical framework, coined functional mapping, has been developed to study architecture dynamic pattern phenotypic at different levels organization. By integrating mathematical aspects cellular biological processes, mapping provides quantitative platform which seemingly unlimited number hypotheses about interplay between genes can be asked tested....
Official framing has received increasing attention in social movement studies. Yet current research often focuses on the negative side of framing, that is, how authorities vilify and demonize challengers to justify coercive reactions, whereas little scholarship scrutinized positive i.e., officials recognize legitimacy citizens’ grievances portray state co-optation or conciliation as responsive governance. Neither does existing examine institutional foundations official framings. To address...
Abstract Based on a detailed case study of the socialist transformation Shanghai Great World Amusement Centre (Dashijie), this article documents state-building efforts during early years People's Republic China (PRC). Between 1950 and 1958, Communist regime incrementally transformed power configuration within Dashijie, promoting dramatic changes in its personnel, institutional structures, drama performances, physical space. Over course process, Dashijie seemed to become ‘loftier’ cultural...
