Design: A cross-sectional quantitative design was used. Methods: The study sample consisted of 208 patients with coronary artery disease from five wards in the Department of Cardiology at a tertiary hospital. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire, the Chinese version of the Multiple Mental Health Literacy Scale and the Chinese Cardiovascular Patient Quality of Life Assessment Questionnaire. The data were analysed with Mplus (v.8.3) and SPSS (v.25.0). Results: The mental health literacy of the 208 patients was categorised into four latent categories: low literacy (n = 28, 13.5%), high knowledge-low resources (n = 53, 25.5%), low knowledge-high resources (n = 63, 30.2%) and high literacy (n = 64, 30.8%). A significant difference in quality of life was observed according to mental health literacy category (P Conclusion: The quality of life of patients with coronary artery disease is significantly influenced by their levels of mental health literacy. Targeted interventions addressing the various profiles of mental health literacy should be implemented to improve the quality of life for patients with coronary artery disease.展开更多

Nevertheless, SMEs are facing a lot of problems in the market competition, such as technical backwardness, information lag, lack of talents, etc.. The healthy development of SMEs is very important, whereas, SMEs’ financing is a worldwide problem, and the result of financing game between banks and enterprises depends on a variety of decision-making factors. In this paper, from the point of view of bank, we analyze the diffi culties of external financing of SMEs, and establish a financing game model based on different risk categories, in order to better solve the problems that remain in the process of financing and promote the healthy and sustainable development of SMEs.展开更多

Inside the geometrical Langlands correspondence and in their cohomological context of strings can be established a framework of the space-time through the different versions of the Penrose transforms and their relation between them by intertwining operators (integral transforms that are isomorphisms between cohomological spaces of orbital spaces of the space-time), obtaining the functors that give equivalences of their corresponding categories.(For more information,please refer to the PDF version.)展开更多

Since aspects in Tibetan always share markers with other important categories called evidentiality and egocentricity, the former of which assesses the evidence of speaker's statement and the latter denotes behavioral characteristics of a speaker'sego-centricity, this paper simultaneously describes all three types: aspect, evidentiality and egocentricity. There are nine types of verb aspects in Lhasa Tibetan, namely: Prospective, Imminent, Premediated, Realis, Durative, Resultative, Merely-past, Perfect, and Contextual aspects. There are four types of evidentialities, namely, Self-knowledge, Knowing-by-sight, Knowing-by-newly-found-information and Knowing-by-inference evidentialities. Categories of egocentricity demonstrate whether an action is towards the Self or the Other, whether the speaker gains or loses, and so on. Additionally, this essay also discusses the interactive relationship between syntactical verb aspects and personal pronouns, intentionality, modality, as well as temporal-spatial cognition.展开更多

As determined in multiple studies, particulate matter equal to or less than 2.5 μrn also called breathable fraction is the one that penetrates the inferior respiratory system. The present study shows the results of a sampling campaign of particulate matter PM25 through 12 months at 3 sites： C33 （Clinic 33）, CIM （CIMAV） and A VA （Avalos） at Chihuahua, Mexico. The aim of this study was to determine the temporary concentrations of PM25, the concentration of metallic elements： Al, As, Co, Cu, Sb, Se, Fe, Mg, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn, as well as their possible sources. The three sites had the same trend in the time, where in autumn and winter the higher concentrations were found. The yearly averages on sites C33, CIM, and AVA were 9.91, 12.74 and 21.67 μg·m^-3, respectively, finding that AVA site overpasses the standard of 15 μg·m^-3. The application of factor analysis to the data allowed to identify four source categories： crustal, related with Al-Co-Fe-Mg-Mn, vehicular, related with： As-Cu-Sb-Se; mixed, related with： As-Cu-Sb-Se-Pb-Zn and industrial related with Ni-Pb.展开更多

However, the abusive and uncontrolled consumption of food additives is the cause of numerous illnesses and diseases such as poisoning, allergies, diabetes and numerous cancers. So, in addition to setting up control and regulatory bodies, it is becoming essential to keep a constant watch on the presence of food additives on the market. The aim of this study is to highlight the main categories of food additives in food products frequently sold on the Senegalese market. The methodology of the study is based on the identification of food additives from the information given on the labels of food packaging. Information was collected in markets in two (2) major regions of Senegal: Dakar and Saint-Louis. The results of our study show the presence of 153 food additives on the labels of 514 samples collected. Moreover, the frequency and diversity of additives depended on the food category. On the other hand, beyond their important technological and functional roles, some additives such as aspartame and monosodium glutamate have been implicated in pathologies, and others, such as titanium dioxide, are the subject of much controversy and even withdrawal in certain legislations for their impacts deemed potentially negative on consumer health.展开更多

Aside from the similarities, the differences between the two films precisely show the cultural and social differences in reality. In Raymond Williams＇ s theory of cultural materialism, culture can be divided into three categories--the dominant, residual and emergent. In relation to this, the ＇cultural hybridity＇ can be shown clearly among the problems （eg. gender, class, sexuality, etc） that the two films involve. Then, I suggest that the relationships between Kes and the ＇emergent culture＇ is an important cultural aspect which Kes exceeds to Billy Elliot.展开更多
