Human Rights and Development:China's Contributions Based on a Larger Concept of Human Rights

The Western liberal view of global governance can no longer effectively address the challenges facing the world today or respond to the demands of developing countries in the fields of human rights and development.Meanwhile,the United Nations human rights and development agenda also has its limitations.Against such a backdrop,China's path of human rights development has avoided the trap of human rights confrontation and the clash of civilizations.It has set an example of complementarity and positive interaction between human rights and development by unifying collective human rights with individual human rights and integrating the universality and particularity of human rights.Xi Jinping,general secretary of the Communist Party of China(CPC)Central Committee,delivered a speech at the 37th group study session of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee on China's Path of Human Rights Development.This elevated China's human rights development to a new historical height.Practice has proved that China's concept and path of human rights in the new era have not only effectively promoted the development of its human rights cause,but also contributed Chinese wisdom to the global cause of human rights and development with a larger concept of human rights.Under the framework of the concept of building a community with a shared future for mankind,the Belt and Road Initiative,and the Global Development Initiative,China has contributed to enhancing the discourse power of developing countries in human rights and building a fairer,more just,more reasonable and more inclusive system for global human rights governance.

目的:探索鉴别胸前V3导联移行流出道室性心律失常(OT-VA)起源部位的体表心电图指标。方法:连续选择2017年1月至2022年8月行导管射频消融术的胸前V3导联移行OT-VA患者65例。比较左室流出道起源组(LVOT组)和右室流出道起源组(RVOT组)室性心律失常发作时体表心电图QRS波振幅及相关指标的差异,选择差异有统计学意义的指标,绘制ROC曲线评价所选取指标鉴别OT-VA起源部位的效能。结果:LVOT组11例,RVOT组54例,两组间差异有统计学意义且ROC曲线下面积(AUC)最大的指标为Ⅰ导联R波/(R+S)波振幅比[R/(R+S)],其鉴别OT-VA起源部位的AUC(95%CI)为0.949(0.894~1.000),截断值为0.50。Ⅰ导联R/(R+S)<0.50诊断胸前V3导联移行LVOT起源OT-VA的敏感度、特异度和准确度分别为0.909、0.944和0.938。结论:Ⅰ导联R/(R+S)<0.50可准确鉴别LVOT起源的胸前V3导联移行OT-VA。

基于S-CAD方法的宅基地“三权分置”改革试点政策评估——以新疆试点市县为例

采用S-CAD政策评估方法对新疆宅基地“三权分置”政策试点地区伊宁市和奇台县的政策执行效果进行评价,研究发现伊宁市和奇台县两试点政策整体逻辑一致性较好、政策要素之间具备充分性与必要性,利益相关者支持程度较高,有效实现了宅基地“三权分置”改革的政策目标,但仍存在政策手段与政策目标充要性不足,预期政策效果与实际政策效果有一定偏差等问题。针对此,提出宅基地“三权分置”改革政策应适应城乡融合发展趋势,加强农户利益保障机制建设;坚持因地制宜,创新农村宅基地“三权分置”改革思路;兼顾多方利益与公平,提升综合价值效应的建议。

Constructing China’s Human Rights Science:Cause,Cognition,and Paradigm

“China’s Human Rights Science”is undoubtedly a brand-new concept.Just as China has its own philosophy,literature,history,law,political science,and sociology,it should also have its own human rights science.China’s Human Rights Science refers to the cognitive science of human rights in China.Developing its disciplinary system,academic system,and discourse system,and constructing an independent Chinese human rights knowledge system,are essential requirements for promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation through Chinese modernization and creating a new form of human civilization.China’s Human Rights Science originated in China,grew in China,and deepened through China’s human rights practices.China’s Human Rights Science adhere to the universality of human rights principles and possess distinctive characteristics.It works as the knowledge-based organization,academic refinement,and theoretical expression of the path of human rights development that conforms to the trend of the times and suits China’s national conditions,as pursued by the Communist Party of China in leading the people.China’s Human Rights Science can enrich and develop the theory of human rights civilization,and should become a global public product of human rights.

Photo-activated microtubule targeting drugs: Advancing therapies for colorectal cancer

Over the years immunotherapy has demonstrably improved the field of cancer treatment.However,achieving long-term survival for colorectal cancer(CRC)patients remains a significant unmet need.Combination immunotherapies incor-porating targeted drugs like MEK or multi-kinase inhibitors have offered some palliative benefit.Nevertheless,substantial gaps remain in the current therapeutic armamentarium for CRC.In recent years,there has been a surge of interest in exploring novel treatment strategies,including the application of light-activated drugs in conjunction with optical devices.This approach holds promise for achie-ving localized and targeted delivery of cytotoxic agents,such as microtubule-targeting drugs,directly to cancerous cells within the colon.

The Alzheimer’s Dementia Patients’ Observed Illness Course and Experience in Ghana and Care Lessons to Be Learnt: A Mental Health Professional’s Perspective

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and associated dementia patient numbers continue to increase globally with associated economic costs to healthcare systems. Of note is the increase in numbers in lower and middle-income countries (LMICs) including Sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries, which already face challenges with their health budgets from communicable and non-communicable diseases. Ghana, an SSA country, faces the problem of healthcare budgetary difficulties and the additional impact of AD as a consequence of increasing population strata of old aged persons (OAPs) due to the demographic transition effect. This article uses examples of known patients’ illness courses to give a perspective on the lived experience of patients with dementia (PWD) in Ghana, living amongst a populace with a culture of stigmatization of PWD, and a relatively fragile public mental health system (PMHS) for those with mental illness, including AD. The lived experience of AD patients is characterised by stigmatisation, discrimination, non-inclusiveness, diminished dignity and human rights abuses in the face of their mental disability, and eventually death. This article is an advocacy article giving voice to the voiceless and all persons suffering from AD and other dementias in Ghana, whilst pleading for a call to action from healthcare professionals and responsible state agencies.

The Three Principles of Institutional Safeguards for Women's Participation in Legislation in China

The participation of women in legislation is an important aspect and means of safeguarding women’s rights.Feminist theory,based on criticism of both the“citizenship identity theory as rights”and the“citizenship identity theory as responsibilities,”proposes the“citizenship identity theory as subjectivity.”Observing the current practice of women’s participation in legislation in China,two institutional safeguard principles can be summarized:the“minimum proportion”and the“influence evaluation.”However,each of these principles has its inherent limitations.Therefore,it is necessary to supplement them with the principle of“subjective participation”in a reflective manner.This principle requires women to participate substantively in the legislative process as subjects,express women’s needs and demands,input women’s perspectives and experiences,and reconstruct the distribution of rights and responsibilities in the existing legislation.The three principles complement each other and work together to comprehensively constitute the institutional structure of women’s participation in legislation,thereby promoting the reproduction of corresponding action structures.

开放获取S计划实施进展及对我国的启示

通过调研S计划及斯普林格·自然(Springer Nature)、剑桥大学出版社(CUP)、爱思唯尔(Elsevier)和英国医学杂志(BMJ)等出版商的官网数据和报告,分析S计划的实施现状、实施模式、存在的问题与应对举措等,以期对推进我国开放获取进程有所启示。S联盟的资助机构队伍不断壮大,转换期刊数量有一定程度增长;S联盟通过采用权利保留策略、提供配套的支撑工具和服务等来推进S计划的实施,但在出版商和研究人员层面仍存在一些抵触、疑虑和挑战。我国目前对S计划的参与度较低,应推进开放获取期刊的标准化运营、逐步实现机构知识库的分级分类开放、建立开放获取中多利益主体的平衡机制等,以加快学术交流向完全、立即的开放获取转变。

Right hepatectomy for giant cavernous hemangioma with diffuse hemangiomatosis around Glisson's capsule

Diffuse liver hemangiomatosis with giant cavernous hemangioma in adult is extremely rare. A 35 year-old woman presented to hospital with main complaint of epigastric pain and abdominal fullness. An enhanced computed tomography scan revealed a massive liver tumor in right lobe about 150 mm in size. There was contrast enhancement at the periphery of the mass consistent with a cavernous hemangioma. She underwent right hepatectomy. Histologically, it was diagnosed as a cavernous hemangioma. And also, hemangiomatous lesions were scattered around the Glisson&#x02019;s capsule on the back ground liver. These hemangiomatous lesions were not recognized preoperatively. Even if we couldn&#x02019;t diagnose hemangiomatosis around the main giant hemangioma preoperatively, we need to take enough surgical margins because the giant hemangioma has the potential to have small hemangiomatous lesions around the tumor. We reported right hepatectomy for giant cavernous hemangioma with diffuse hepatic hemangiomatosis without an extrahepatic lesion in an adult.
