    الوصف: В работе исследуется направление «деревенский реализм», историко-политические, социокультурные факторы, повлиявшие на его зарождение и развитие в китайском изобразительном искусстве последней трети XX столетия. Изучение «деревенского реализма», ставшего неким индикатором, отражающим атмосферу эпохи, особенности мировоззрения, в том числе диалога восточной и западной культур, актуально как для китайского, так и для российского искусствоведения на современном этапе. Однако этот феномен еще не получил исчерпывающего осмысления. Предлагаемая статья является попыткой комплексного рассмотрения «деревенского реализма» в творчестве живописцев юго-запада Китая как знакового явления в художественной культуре страны XX века. На основе переводов, изучения и систематизации сведений, рассредоточенных в разных источниках, автор детально исследует генезис «деревенского реализма» и его роль в истории современного китайского изобразительного искусства; раскрывает общественно-политические и социально-философские аспекты этого направления, выявляет динамику изменения художественно-выразительных средств и иконографической системы, анализирует конвергенцию западного и национального на примере репрезентативных полотен ведущих представителей «деревенского реализма» юго-запада Китая, возглавивших направление.

    الوصف: Abstract Human cultivation facilitates the naturalization and subsequent invasion of non-native plant species through, for example, protection from predators or reducing environmental stochasticity. With the development of tourism, non-native plant species have been increasingly introduced into rural home gardens for landscape greening and amenity planting. However, few studies have examined non-native flora in rural home gardens, and in particular the importance of tourism in determining changes of garden non-native flora has not been scrutinized. In this study, we investigated non-native plant species in 135 home gardens across five rural tourism villages in tropical China. Attributes related to garden or household characteristics were also collected through interviews and questionnaires. A distance-based redundancy analysis was then performed to reveal the relationships between the non-native species composition and garden attributes. A total of 338 non-native plant species were recorded in the surveyed gardens. Among them, the majority (63%) were ornamentals, whereas 19% were for nutritional uses and 12% were spontaneous weeds. Gardening preference and distance to tourist attractions governed the non-native compositions, with gardens preferring cultural (ornamental) cultivation or gardens close to tourist attractions having more non-native species. These results highlight an increasing role of tourism in promoting non-native cultivation in rural gardens. Recommendations for species risk assessment, trade and supply regulation, and proper garden management are provided to help harness plant invasion along tourism development in rural China and other regions around the world.

    الوصف: Abstract China, is characterized by its remarkable ethnical diversity, which necessitates whole genome variation data from multiple populations as crucial tools for advancing population genetics and precision medical research. However, there has been a scarcity of research concentrating on the whole genome of ethnic minority groups. To fill this gap, we developed the Guizhou Multi-ethnic Genome Database (GMGD). It comprises whole genome sequencing data from 476 healthy unrelated individuals spanning 11 ethnic minorities groups in Guizhou Province, Southwest China, including Bouyei, Dong, Miao, Yi, Bai, Gelo, Zhuang, Tujia, Yao, Hui, and Sui. The GMGD database comprises more than 16.33 million variants in GRCh38 and 16.20 million variants in GRCh37. Among these, approximately 11.9% (1,956,322) of the variants in GRCh38 and 18.5% (3,009,431) of the variants in GRCh37 are entirely new and do not exist in the dbSNP database. These novel variants shed light on the genetic diversity landscape across these populations, providing valuable insights with an average coverage of 5.5 ×. This makes GMGD the largest genome-wide database encompassing the most diverse ethnic groups to date. The GMGD interactive interface facilitates researchers with multi-dimensional mutation search methods and displays population frequency differences among global populations. Furthermore, GMGD is equipped with a genotype-imputation function, enabling enhanced capabilities for low-depth genomic research or targeted region capture studies. GMGD offers unique insights into the genomic variation landscape of different ethnic groups, which are freely accessible at https://db.cngb.org/pop/gmgdTest/ .

    الوصف: Abstract Purpose To investigate the correlation between socioeconomic status (SES) and the incidence of hypertension among adults aged 18 or above in southwest China. Methods A multistage proportional stratified cluster sampling method was employed to recruited 9280 adult residents from 12 counties in southwest China, with all participants in the cohort tracked from 2016 to 2020. The questionnaire survey gathered information on demographics, lifestyle habits, and household income. The physical exam recorded height, weight, and blood pressure. Biochemical tests measured cholesterol levels. The chi-square test was employed to assess the statistical differences among categorical variables, while the Cox proportional hazards regression model was applied to evaluate the association between socioeconomic status (SES) and the incidence of hypertension. Results The finally effective sample size for the cohort study was 3546 participants, after excluding 5734 people who met the exclusion criteria. Adults in the highest household income group had a significantly lower risk of hypertension compared to those in the lowest income group (HR = 0.636, 95% CI: 0.478–0.845). Besides, when compared to individuals in the illiterate population, the risk of hypertension among adults with elementary school, junior high school, senior high school and associate degree educational level decreased respectively by 34.4% (HR = 0.656, 95%CI: 0.533–0.807), 44.9% (HR = 0.551, 95%CI: 0.436–0.697), 44.9% (HR = 0.551, 95%CI: 0.405–0.750), 46.1% (HR = 0.539, 95%CI: 0. 340–0.854). After conducting a thorough analysis of socioeconomic status, compared with individuals with a score of 6 or less, the risk of hypertension in participants with scores of 8, 10, 11, 12, and greater than 12 decreased respectively by 23.9% (HR = 0.761, 95%CI: 0.598–0.969), 29.7% (HR = 0.703, 95%CI: 0.538–0.919), 34.0% (HR = 0.660, 95%CI: 0.492–0.885), 34.3% (HR = 0.657, 95%CI: 0.447–0.967), 43.9% (HR = 0.561, 95%CI: 0.409–0.769). Conclusion The findings indicate a negative correlation between socioeconomic status and hypertension incidence among adults in southwest China, suggesting that individuals with higher socioeconomic status are less likely to develop hypertension.

    مستخلص: New joint state-merchant corporations thus served as a means to expand state control and establish sovereignty over territories and resources. Chapter 6 explores Yunnan's industrialization in the 1920s and 1930s under the entrepreneurial technocrat Miao Yuntai (1894-1988), whose vision of profit-driven state corporations combined corporate governance with rationalization of state oversight. While Miao's approach valued managerial autonomy and performance of private corporations, it nonetheless stressed state control owing to his vision of Yunnan as a backward and ethnically diverse borderland.

    الوصف: Abstract Background Avian influenza viruses (AIVs) constitute significant zoonotic pathogens encompassing a broad spectrum of subtypes. Notably, the H4 subtype of AIVs has a pronounced ability to shift hosts. The escalating prevalence of the H4 subtype heightens the concern for its zoonotic potential, signaling an urgent need for vigilance. Methods During the period from December 2021 to November 2023, we collected AIV-related environmental samples and assessed them using a comprehensive protocol that included nucleic acid testing, gene sequencing, isolation culture, and resequencing. Results In this study, a total of 934 environmental samples were assessed, revealing a remarkably high detection rate (43.66%, 289/662) of AIV in the live poultry market. Notably, the H4N1 subtype AIV (cs2301) was isolated from the live poultry market and its complete genome sequence was successfully determined. Subsequent analysis revealed that cs2301, resulting from a reassortment event between wild and domesticated waterfowl, exhibits multiple mutations and demonstrates potential for host transfer. Conclusions Our research once again demonstrates the significant role of wild and domesticated waterfowl in the reassortment process of avian influenza virus, enriching the research on the H4 subtype of AIV, and emphasizing the importance of proactive monitoring the environment related to avian influenza virus.

    الوصف: Abstract Minority Cultural Heritage (MCH) plays a crucial role in preserving human cultural and historical diversity. In Southwest China, there is a disparity between the abundance of ethnic minority cultural heritage resources and their inadequate protection and development. However, limited by interdisciplinary barriers, research into the distribution patterns of varied MCH in this area remains unexplored, making an initial step towards comprehensive preservation. The study investigates the relationship between MCH distribution and its association with factors of geography, climate, transportation, economics, and demographics, utilizing spatial geographic analysis, Geodetector methods, and social network analysis. The results indicate the following: (1) The distribution of 483 national-level MCH in Southwest China exhibits clustering, with a higher concentration in the southern regions. Honghe Prefecture, Dali Prefecture, and Qiandongnan Prefecture serve as the core areas with high MCH density, accounting for 47.2% of the total concentration. (2) All three categories of MCH show cohesive distribution patterns. cultural heritage clusters in the northern to southeastern regions of Yunnan Province, intangible cultural heritage clusters in the southeastern to southern regions of Guizhou Province, and agricultural cultural heritage clusters in the northern region of Yunnan Province. (3) The distribution of MCH among different ethnic minorities demonstrates polarization. The Yi and Tibetan ethnic groups have a higher quantity and diversity of MCH, while the Qiang, Lisu, and Jingpo ethnic groups have relatively fewer resources. (4) Single-factor analysis reveals that natural factors like the proportion of mountainous areas, river density, and annual average sunshine, as well as human factors like the proportion of minority population, urbanization rate, and road mileage, have the strongest explanatory power for the distribution of MCH. Furthermore, the interaction between these factors and others enhances the explanatory power for the distribution of MCH in Southwest China. This study provides scientific evidence for the assessment, protection, and sustainable development of MCH.

    الوصف: Study region: Southwestern China of Hubei, Hunan, Guangxi, Guangdong, Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Chongqing. Study focus: Compound hot-dry extreme events (CHDEs) are escalating disproportionately worldwide, posing significant challenges across various sectors. Yet, their driving mechanisms and characteristics at a regional scale remain largely uncertain. This study used a copula-based approach to construct the daily Standardized Compound Hot-Dry Index (SCHDI) to discern the intensifying trends of hot-dry extremes from 1963 to 2022, especially under different karst landscapes in Southwestern China. New hydrological insights for the region: SCHDI variations show an escalation of hot-dry conditions across most areas, with a notable increase in extreme hot, dry, and hot-dry events. There was a consistent increase in the frequency, duration, severity, and intensity of CHDEs, with larger magnitudes observed in non-karst areas. However, karst regions exhibited a higher escalation rate in intensity, especially over the most recent three decades. Land areas affected by less severe CHDEs (e.g., abnormal: −0.31%/year) show decreasing trends over 1993–2022, while the most extreme category (e.g., extreme: 0.34%/year) has increased. The areas affected by CHDEs showed a greater increase in trend slope compared to hot or dry events alone. Additionally, these trends are further influenced by large-scale circulation patterns. Our study highlights the role of karst landscapes in escalating hot-dry extremes in Southwestern China Karst.

    الوصف: Study region: Guizhou Province, Southwest China Study focus: This study aims to estimate the hydraulic conductivity (Kh) of the weathered rock fractures (epikarst) based on the best fitting of observed water head in 105 slug tests in the study sites. Specifically, comparisons of the estimated results from the analytical and numerical methods reveal the effects of changes in fracture flow conditions (e.g., steady and non-steady) on Kh for various fracture apertures and soil fillings. New hydrological insights for the region: The results comparatively show that Kh from the analytical solution of steady flow was significantly underestimated, and the numerical modeling of the non-linear and unsteady flow can improve the water head fitting when the Reynolds number (Re) > 17.27. The optimized Kh ranges 0.014–2673 m/d and the mean value of Kh is about 100 times the median value, suggesting that epikarst flow might be controlled by a limited number of larger fractures. Moreover, the soil filling in large fractures (>10 mm) creates a turning point of the exponential increase of Kh with d. Comparatively, the naturally full-filling fractures resemble the soil matrix with a low Kh, and the partial-filling fractures can create preferential flow around the soil-rock interfaces with a high Kh. These results fundamentally improve our understanding of water infiltration, retention, and availability for plant uses in the karst areas of southwest China.

    الوصف: The sustainable development of ecologically fragile areas and the implementation of regional coordinated development strategies cannot be separated from the coordinated development and common progress of urbanization and the ecological environment, and this is particularly the case in Southwest China. This study examines the interplay between urbanization and the ecological environment across 26 cities in Southwest China from 2009 to 2019, utilizing 30 statistical indicators to analyze their coupling coordination relationship and its spatiotemporal evolution. The Entropy TOPSIS method, the coupling coordination degree model, and the obstacle factors model were used to calculate the subsystem score, coupling coordination degree, and obstacle factors, respectively. Our findings reveal an upward trajectory in urbanization scores across the 26 cities, juxtaposed with a fluctuating downward trend in ecological environment scores. The coupling coordination degree of urbanization and ecological environment in most cities maintained a rapid upward trend and showed spatial distribution characteristics of “strong core, weak middle, and edge.” Moreover, our analysis identified public transport facilities, aggregate purchasing power, and cultural supply service services as primary obstacle factors impeding the development of coupling coordination degrees. These research results offer valuable insights for informing future endeavors in achieving high-quality development and fostering ecological civilization.
