Cardiovascular Remodeling
Although the treatment has greatly progressed, the mortality of cardiovascular diseases remains the leading cause of death worldwide. Serious cardiovascular diseases, e.g., myocardial infarction, heart failure, cardiac dysrhythmias, and stroke, are resulted from cardiovascular remodeling secondary to the cardiovascular risk factors, including hypertension, atherosclerosis, cigarette smoking, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, aging, etc. Cardiac remodeling involves a series of molecular, cellular, and interstitial alterations, which manifest clinically as changes in size, mass, geometry, and function of the heart. In addition, vascular remodeling is an active process of structural alteration...
Fractal and Multifractal Facets in the Structure and Dynamics of Physiological Systems and Applications to Homeostatic Control, Disease Diagnosis and Integrated Cyber-Physical Platforms
Widespread chronic diseases (e.g., heart diseases, diabetes and its complications, stroke, cancer, brain diseases) constitute a significant cause of rising healthcare costs and pose a significant burden on quality-of-life for many individuals. Despite the increased need for smart healthcare sensing systems that monitor / measure patients’ body balance, there is no coherent theory that facilitates the modeling of human physiological processes and the design and optimization of future healthcare cyber-physical systems (HCPS). The HCPS are expected to mine the patient’s physiological state based on available continuous sensing, quantify risk indices corresponding to the onset of abnormality...

The wrong person mistakenly thought that the other person was a bad person, but she never thought that this person was her teacher.
A History of Modern Chinese Popular Literature
The first English translation of one of the most authoritative and significant studies in the field of modern Chinese literature.
Early Chinese Manuscript Collections
As the first study of manuscript collections, this book asks what changes when sayings, stories, songs, and spells are brought together on the same carrier. Covering a plethora of manuscripts from the Warring States and early empires, and spanning sources from philosophy, historiography, poetry, and technical literature, this study describes the whole life-cycle of multiple texts collected on a single manuscript. Drawing on comparative and interdisciplinary advances and based on careful study of manuscript materiality and textuality, this book shows the importance of collections in the development of and access to text and knowledge in early China.
Migration, Transmission, Localisation: Visual Art in Singapore (1886-1945)
Drawing mainly on advertisements and comics in Chinese newspapers, Singaporean scholar and educator Yeo Mang Thong demonstrates how Singapore was an important hub for artists who travelled to and lived in Singapore. Yeo’s research features amongst other things essays on sojourning artists, and fills a gap in scholarship on the pre-war visual arts scene in Singapore. Originally in Chinese, this English translation aims to bring his research to a broader audience.
The Readability of the Past in Early Chinese Historiography
"The past becomes readable when we can tell stories and make arguments about it. When we can tell more than one story or make divergent arguments, the readability of the past then becomes an issue. Therein lies the beginning of history, the sense of inquiry that heightens our awareness of interpretation. How do interpretive structures develop and disintegrate? What are the possibilities and limits of historical knowledge? This book explores these issues through a study of the Zuozhuan, a foundational text in the Chinese tradition, whose rhetorical and analytical self-consciousness reveals much about the contending ways of thought unfolding during the period of the text’s formation (ca. 4th...
