Guests' Aesthetic experience with lifestyle hotels: An application of LDA topic modelling analysis.

The purpose of this study is to systematically explore lifestyle hotel guests' aesthetic experiences. This study adopts word frequency analysis, latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) topic modelling analysis and manual coding to systematically analyse 11,239 online reviews posted by guests from 131 lifestyle hotels in eight cities in China. A framework is developed to organize the identified themes and illustrate lifestyle hotel guests' aesthetic experiences.

Cross-cultural study of hotel practices as perceived by Chinese and North American travellers: A data mining analysis.

This paper aims to unearth the different perception styles of Chinese and North American travellers from analytic versus holistic thinking perspectives. Python was utilized to gather online textual data from Chinese and North American travellers, while word frequency analysis, latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) topic modelling analysis and content analysis were employed to elucidate the perception styles in a cross-cultural context. In general, North American travellers mainly leaned towards analytic thinking, whereas Chinese travellers showcased a blend of holistic and analytic thought processes.

Nanoplate-based digital PCR for highly sensitive pork DNA detection targeting multi-copy nuclear and mitochondrial genes.

The inclusion of ingredients derived from pigs in highly processed consumer products poses a significant challenge for DNA-targeted analytical enforcement, which could be overcome by using digital PCR. However, most species detection methods use digital PCR to target single-copy nuclear genes, which limits their sensitivity. In this work, we examined the performance of a nanoplate-based digital PCR method that targets multi-copy nuclear (MPRE42) and mitochondrial (Cyt) genes.

Extramammary Paget's disease in Chinese males: a 21-year experience.

Background: Extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) is a rare disease in Chinese males. Our objectives were to examine the results of our experience, to correlate them with the published literature, and thus to formulate improved management guidelines.

Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of all male patients with EMPD treated at our institution.

Use of onion extract, heparin, allantoin gel in prevention of scarring in chinese patients having laser removal of tattoos: a prospective randomized controlled trial.

Background: With rapid advancement in cutaneous laser therapy, Q-switched lasers have become the standard treatment for tattoo removal. The longer wavelength Q-switched Nd:YAG laser is used when removing tattoos in darker skin patients to avoid scarring and permanent pigment changes. Nevertheless, the local experience revealed that nearly 25% of the Chinese patients developed scarring.

Treatment of port wine stains with intense pulsed light: a prospective study.

Background: Recent studies have shown that intense pulsed light can be useful in treating port wine stains that were resistant to previous pulsed dye laser therapy. Asian persons with high epidermal melanin context can be at a higher risk of complication.

Objective: The aim of this study was to conduct a prospective trial to assess the efficacy and complication of intense pulsed light in the treatment of port wine stains in Chinese patients.

Prospective study on the treatment of postburn hyperpigmentation by intense pulsed light.

Background And Objectives: Postburn hyperpigmentation is a common phenomenon among Asian especially over grafted areas and sometimes over donor sites and healed wounds without skin graft. This condition is difficult to treat and can cause severe psychological distress. Intense pulsed light (IPL) has been used to treat melanocytic lesions with promising result.

Laser treatment of congenital facial port-wine stains: long-term efficacy and complication in Chinese patients.

Background And Objective: Pulsed dye laser (585 nm, 450 micros) and variable pulse width frequency doubled Nd:YAG 532 nm laser have been proven to be effective in treating vascular lesions in Caucasians especially in facial port-wine stain. Their roles in dark-skinned Asian have not been determined. The objective of this study was to assess the long-term outcome and complication of laser treatment of congenital facial port-wine stain in Chinese patients retrospectively.
