Profiles of teachers' emotional labour during COVID-19 and the consequences on mental health: A comparison between online and offline teaching.

Background: Despite increasing attention on emotional labor in teacher well-being research, person-centered studies are relatively scarce, particularly concerning the emotional labor of online teaching during COVID-19 and its effects on teachers' non-work-related mental health.

Objective: This study aims to address these gaps by examining emotional labor profiles and their consequences on job satisfaction, depression, and anxiety among Chinese teachers involved in either online or offline teaching during October-December 2022.

Methods: Two samples of teachers were analyzed altogether: one engaged in online teaching (N=605) and the other in offline teaching (N=394).

Understanding Using a Approach: Re-examining the Non-linear Relationship Between Creativity and the Confucian Doctrine of the Mean.

, a central theme of Confucian thought, refers to the "doctrine of the mean," or the idea that moderation in all things is the optimal path. Despite considerable interest in the relationship between and creativity, especially in China, studies of this relationship have not yielded consistent results. Based on a review of the literature, we hypothesized that this inconsistency arises from the dual nature of itself, which has both a positive side, promoting creativity, and a negative side, inhibiting creativity.

An Investigation on the Academic Burden of Chinese Students Ranging from Primary Schools to Universities Based on a Word Association Test in Guangdong Province.

China's basic education and higher education are currently facing policies aimed at reducing and increasing the academic burden, respectively. In this context, we first review and assess the methods of measuring students' academic burden and then apply the implicit association test for the first time to the academic burden of Chinese students from primary school to university under a unified framework. The results demonstrates that students' academic burden increases with the school stage, and thus university students face a greater burden than primary and high school students, and that learning attitude fully mediates the relationship between objective and subjective views of academic burden.

Transthyretin Regulated by linc00657/miR-205-5p Promoted Cholesterol Metabolism by Inducing SREBP2-HMGCR and Inhibiting LXRα-CYP7A1.

Background: Transthyretin functions as a serum transport protein for retinol. Transthyretin has been found associated with amyloid diseases and it is an important nutrition indicator. For this study, we aimed to investigate the up and down stream molecular mechanisms of Transthyretin in cholesterol metabolism.

Survival analysis for male ductal and lobular breast cancer patients with different stages.

Aim: We aimed to investigate risk factors and current treatment effects in male breast cancer patients.

Methods: Kaplan-Meier plot, log-rank test, COX model, nomograms and propensity score matching were used.

Results: Among stage I-III patients, surgery was associated with better prognosis.

Ovarian cancer transformation from adenocarcinoma to undifferentiated small cell carcinoma: A case report.

The ovaries contain cells that have the capacity for regeneration and cancer stem cells (CSC) that are capable of differentiating aberrantly from the homeostatic controls. The histology of ovarian cancer does not usually change in a patient. However, CSCs are the origin of a number of tumors.

Proteomic analysis on the alteration of protein expression in gills of ayu (Plecoglossus altivelis) associated with salinity change.

Gill is the primary osmoregulatory organ for euryhaline fish to acclimate salinity change. The effect of salinity on gill proteome in ayu, Plecoglossus altivelis, was investigated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS/MS). Eight of eighteen altered proteins were successfully identified.

Clinical implications of increased expression of CD40L in patients with acute coronary syndromes.

Objective: To investigate clinical implications of expression of CD40L in monocytes and changes in serum soluble CD40L in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS).

Methods: Sixteen control and 56 patients, including 24 with stable angina (SA), 20 with unstable angina (UA) and 12 with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) enrolled in this study. Expression of CD40L in monocytes was analyzed by flow cytometry and sCD40L levels were measured by ELISA.
