https://rclss.com/pij/article/view/759
<p>To explore the psychological condition of medical personnel in fever clinic in Taishan City under the background of normalized epidemic prevention and control, and to analyze the related influencing factors. The medical staff of fever outpatient clinics in 24 medical institutions in Taishan City under the prevention and control of the normalized COVID-19 outbreak were selected as the study subjects,using the whole-population sampling method. The psychological status of the medical staff of the fever outpatient clinics and their influencing factors were analyzed by using statistical methods such as multiple linear regression, with the Self-rating Scale of Mental Health Symptoms, the Stress Perception Scale, and the Family Apathy Index. In the study,a total of 422 questionnaires were collected with a validity rate of 82.46%. Person correlation results showed that stress feeling score was positively correlated with SCL-90 score (r<0.60), and family caring was negatively correlated with SCL-90 score (r<-0.30). Multiple linear regression models showed that respondents had difficulty in falling asleep (b=8.96), early awakening (b=9.07), humanistic care in hospitals (b=6.82), feelings of stress (b=2.29), and family caringness score (b=-1.34), were linearly correlated with the mental health status of medical staff. Medical staff of fever clinics in Taishan City in the context of normalised epidemic prevention and control are still in a highly stressful working environment, resulting in such situations as reduced sleep quality and deteriorated psychological conditions. Hospital management should make effort to provide sufficient humanistic care and sleep guidance for medical staff in fever clinics.</p>Yuchang LiuJunchu He

2024-12-192024-12-197633033410.55014/pij.v7i6.759The Impact of the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework on China and Its Response
https://rclss.com/pij/article/view/732
<p>The "Indo Pacific Economic Framework" (IPEF) is the economic pillar established by the Biden government for the "Indo Pacific Strategy. It aims to complement the weaknesses of the U.S. economic strategy in the Indo Pacific region, strengthen ties with other countries, and has a clear tendency of anti Chinese, aiming to create a "new economic order in Indo Pacific" that excludes China. Due to various constraints, the effectiveness of the Indo Pacific economic framework has yet to be evaluated. By examining the main contents of the current IPEF, this paper compares it with other existing regional free trade agreements (FTA), analyzes the impact of IPEF on the political and economic situation of the entire Indo Pacific region, and discusses how China can better respond to the "containment" of IPEF and minimize the negative impact.</p>Jinyuan Li

2024-12-192024-12-197622222710.55014/pij.v7i6.740A Study on The Theme Change in C-E Translation of Chinese Non-Subject Sentences in Political Discourse
https://rclss.com/pij/article/view/728
<p>The “Theme-Rheme” Theory is a part of the Metafunctions in System-functional linguistics, and the theory has great research value for translation practice and discourse analysis. The special sentence form of the non-subject clause, with its unique structure of missing the subject part but only the predicate part, is characterized by simplicity and conciseness, which is especially common in political discourse. Based on the perspective of the "Theme-Rheme", this study conducts a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the changes in the "Theme" from the original to the English version of the non-subject sentences in the 2024 Government Work Report.</p> <p>The study reveals that the two most frequent changes of the “Theme” in the translation of political literature are adding Unmarked Theme such as "We", "China" and "the government" and changing “Theme” by translating into the passive voice that translates the original theme as the targeted theme or adds a new theme. Chinese non-subject sentences in political literature lack an operator as the subject. English sentences emphasize logic, the subject needs to be added to lead the whole sentence, to make the discourse more compact. To accurately convey the meaning of these sentences in English, they can be translated into passive voice and the subject adjusted as needed. Given the implicit nature of Chinese and the directness of English, the discipline of theme change aids effective communication. The study seeks to derive objective conclusions through detailed data analysis, offering a new perspective on understanding and appreciating the English translation of political and economic texts.</p>Qi Duo

https://rclss.com/pij/article/view/731
<p><strong>Objective</strong> Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) has a poor prognosis because of high recurrence and metastasis rates and failure of immunotherapy caused by escape of immune cells. The aim of this study was to explore potential biomarkers and precise drug therapies for HNSCC.</p> <p><strong>Methods</strong> We extracted the RNA transcriptome dataset and related clinical data of patients with HNSCC from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database to analyze differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in HNSCC. We screened differentially expressed lncRNAs related to cuproptosis among regulatory genes and identified those that best indicated the prognosis of HNSCC univariate Cox (uni-Cox) regression analyses and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator. We constructed models and evaluated their accuracy in determining high- and low-risk groups using the Kaplan–Meier, receiver operating characteristic curve, and uni-Cox regression and multivariate Cox (multi-Cox) regression analyses. Subsequently, we subjected the high-risk group to gene set variation analysis, principal component analysis, immunoassay, and half-maximal inhibitory concentration prediction. To further improve tumor immunotherapy, we divided the entire sample into cold and hot groups based on cuproptosis-related lncRNAs and analyzed the therapeutic differences.<strong> Results</strong> Combined with cuproptosis-related genes and by analyzing the HNSCC data from TCGA, we obtained five cuproptosis-related prognostic lncRNAs. The model showed certain reliability. Patients in the high- and low-risk groups had different tumor microenvironments and drug sensitivities. Cuproptosis-related lncRNA expression differed between cold and hot tumors. Further, hot tumors were more sensitive to immunotherapy drugs compared to cold tumors.<strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>Conclusion</strong> This study established and verified the lncRNAs that stratified the prognostic risk related to cuproptos<strong>i</strong>s in HNSCC. The model also predicted immunotherapeutic responses of patients with HNSCC and provided a reference for the individualized treatment of cold and hot tumors.</p>Xiaoqiang MOtao liangyuanzhi ZHUYao DingYi HuangShizi Wang

https://rclss.com/pij/article/view/719
<p>The progression of digital transformation has rendered the assetization of data an inevitable trend. This paper investigates the relationship between data assets and total factor productivity using a sample of A-share listed companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen. We find that data assets enhance firms' total factor productivity via two primary mechanisms: augmenting human capital and fostering innovation within firms. Moreover, this effect is particularly pronounced in large-scale firms, state-owned enterprises (SOEs), as well as firms located in regions characterized by high levels of digitization and economic policy uncertainty. This paper contributes to the literature by enriching and expanding the understanding of the economic consequences of data assets on firms' total factor productivity, while providing a policy rationale for further promoting data assetization as a catalyst for innovation and development.</p>Feng Liu

2024-12-192024-12-197610.55014/pij.v7i6.719The Application of Functional Equivalence Theory in Novel ——A Cases Study of Normal People
https://rclss.com/pij/article/view/738
<p>This study takes <em>Normal People</em> as an example, adopting Eugene A. Nida's functional equivalence as the foundational guiding theory for novel translation. Through the meticulous application of meaning equivalence, stylistic equivalence, and cultural equivalence, it conducts a comprehensive and in-depth research and analysis of the translation process within the context of novels.</p> <p>The study explores how these three translation methods are subtly yet profoundly reflected in various aspects of the novel, including its narrative structure, dialogue, character development, and thematic elements. By examining these facets, the study aims to provide a nuanced understanding of how functional equivalence is operationalized in practice.In the narrative structure of <em>Normal People</em>, the translator employs meaning equivalence to ensure that the plot unfolds logically and coherently in the target language, preserving the original author's intent and narrative voice. Similarly, stylistic equivalence is crucial in maintaining the unique linguistic style and tone of the novel, which is often integral to its appeal and impact. Cultural equivalence, on the other hand, is vital for conveying the cultural nuances and references embedded within the text, ensuring that the translated work resonates with readers from different cultural backgrounds.</p> <p>In conclusion, the study asserts that Nida's functional equivalence plays an indispensable and decisive role in ensuring the accuracy, readability, and overall quality of novel translations. It emphasizes the importance of giving sufficient attention to this theory in order to ensure that translated works not only convey the intended meaning and tone of the original text but also resonate with readers on an emotional and intellectual level. By achieving functional equivalence, translators can create translations that are both faithful to the original and accessible to a wider audience.</p> <p>Under the guidance of the theories and methods of scientific novel translation, these translated works can serve as bridges that enable readers to better understand and appreciate the diverse and rich tapestry of excellent foreign novels. By fostering greater cross-cultural understanding and respect, these translations can significantly enhance the effectiveness of international communication and contribute to the promotion of global cultural exchange and harmony. Ultimately, the study underscores the critical role of functional equivalence in facilitating meaningful and impactful literary translation.</p> <p> </p>Xiaoqing Fu
