Effectiveness of digital education on communication skills among medical students : systematic review and meta-analysis by the digital health education collaboration by Kyaw, Bhone Myint, Posadzki, Pawel, Paddock, Sophie, Car, Josip, Campbell, James, Car, Lorainne Tudor

“…For knowledge outcome, two studies comparing the effectiveness of blended online digital education and traditional learning reported no difference in postintervention knowledge scores between the groups (SMD=0.18; 95% CI: –0.2 to 0.55; I2=61%; N=2 studies [292 students]; small effect size; low-quality evidence). The findings on attitudes, satisfaction, and patient-related outcomes were limited or mixed. …”

The limits of liberalization: WTO entry and Chinese state-owned firms by Tan, Y, Davis, CL

“…However, where strategic goods targeted by industrial policy hold a large share of bilateral trade, lowering tariffs has no impact on SOE trade. These findings highlight the tensions between state-led economic models and global trade law premised upon market principles.…”

Ultrafast dynamics in quantum materials probed by time-and-momentum-resolved techniques by Su, Yifan

“…This part of the thesis will examine a series of CDW materials with multiple CDW orders, including ErTe₃, EuTe₄, and, CsV₃Sb₅. Via a series of ultrafast multi-messenger experiments, I will survey various origins and behaviors of CDW interactions and answer longstanding questions about the nature of CDW ground states in these quantum materials. …”

Construction of complex nanostructures in solution phase by Xu, Jun

“…Furthermore, Au nanoring composed of close-packed monolayer free-standing films were achieved by simply using Ppy modified Au nanorings self-assembly at water/oil interface. Finally, in chapter 5, we demonstrated that the as-synthesized Au nanor-ings could be fused into coherent Au nanorings. …”

会话分析研究 ： “like” 在新加坡华语中的语用功能 = Conversation analysis : “like” in Singapore Mandarin conversations by 陈珠凤 Tan, Kyu Houng

“…Results show that “like” take on different discourse functions in different Mandarin conversation contexts: (1) turn-initial object of a response, allowing listeners to take their turn in the conversation by elaborating on an existing topic; (2) a pragmatic hedge with the role of a face-saving device for the speaker (3) filler indicator (4) explanation marker (5) repair marker (6) quotation complement.…”
