We emphasize the role of adaptive mechanisms in shaping behavior and argue for the integration of hierarchical theories of goal-directed cognition and behavioral flexibility, in order to unravel the motivations behind actions that, in themselves, seem disconnected from adaptive goals.

Totally implantable venous access port (TIVAP), a novel intravenous infusion system that is used for long-term intravenous treatment, has become increasingly popular among cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and other patients requiring long-term intravenous infusions. This technology has been introduced into clinical practice in China, with successful results. Nevertheless, there are still certain problems; for instance, China has not set up a specialized regulatory agency to oversee research and set guidelines for the comprehensive life-cycle management of TIVAP.
