“…Critical reviews are a popular way to assess both previous and new research. It might look into a particular idea, topic, theoretical stance, or urgent issue covered in the corpus of earlier studies (Taherdoost, 2023). A thorough analysis of the collection of literature is necessary to fully understand the intricate web of cultural cooperation, media influence, and communication tactics within the broad context of China-Africa relations.…”

China-Africa relations impact the economic, political, and cultural spheres. This research aims to enhance such connections by exploring various aspects. The importance of effective communication, the media's influence, and cross-cultural cooperation has been emphasised. Mutual respect and admiration are fostered through cross-cultural collaboration. The research methodology employed in this study strongly emphasises a detailed review of scholarly works, earlier studies, and publications. A thorough analysis of the collection of literature has been done to fully understand the intricate web of cultural cooperation, media influence, and communication tactics within the broad context of China-Africa relations. Effective communication channels are vital for diplomatic interactions, such as official visits and multilateral gatherings, enabling conversation, policy coordination, and alignment of interests. The study underscores the value of efficient communication strategies in promoting understanding and teamwork. It provides insights, recommendations, and directions for enhancing China-Africa ties by focusing on cultural cooperation, media influence, and effective communication. Cultural exchanges and educational activities are crucial to strengthening relations and honouring heritage. Taking proactive steps in these areas can strengthen the bonds between both parties, resulting in growth, shared prosperity, and increased global importance.

“…The reading is supported by conducting a "critical literature review" [40] around the main themes in question here: "hard heritage" and "climate crises". The literature review on this gap [41,42] unveils two notions: the ideals related to "space configuration" (Terrain Vague and Junk Space) and the ideals related to the "ethics of reducing, recycling and reusing".…”

Function Follows Form: Considerations on Hard Heritage Facing the Climate Emergency

In the discipline of architecture, there is an established familiarity with the 19th century’s Louis Sullivan’s pithy dictum “form follows function”. The expression has indeed directly and indirectly inspired many authors and movements, especially during the beginning of the 20th century, when objectivity showed its value in improving the progress of the industrial society. Nonetheless, the reception effects of such architecture with the primacy of function were responsible for decisive transformations in architectural form, human behaviour, social transformations and material and technological manoeuvres and gave rise to very rich developments related to form, history and inhabitants’ psychological engagements, among many others. So, what about the reception effects framed in the natural and inhabited environment? Could we make space for a sense of greater need, facing a climate emergency? The present paper brings the example of a bunker’s super-resistant heritage, as a paradigmatic sample of material resistance, that supports the idea that “Function (can) Follow the Form” when re-signifying hard architecture, as is the case with Plan Barron of Defence of Lisbon and Setubal, a recently declassified military heritage set of buildings. The study conducts a critical literature review as a qualitative method of research that groups factors into clusters to give evidence to some conceptual theoretical frameworks: “hardness”; “inheritance”; “object trouvé”; “affordance”; and “empathy”. These concepts become then the basis to frame a new paradigm: function follows form can be a pertinent approach when dealing with super-resistant structures in the present climate crisis. This inverse paragon, well explained, could work as a motto to architects for a new era of global climate action.

“…One issue is due to the scope of attention; as systematic reviews have a confined focus. Another restriction concerns the study selection, information loss on critical outcomes, incorrect subgroup analysis, and inconsistency with the unique experimental results [43]. Limited databases and the title search query are other limitations of this review.…”

As medical technology advances, there is an increasing need for healthcare providers all over the world to securely share a growing volume of data. Blockchain is a powerful technology that allows multiple parties to securely access and share data. Given the enormous challenge that healthcare systems face in digitizing and sharing health records, it is not unexpected that many are attempting to improve healthcare processes by utilizing blockchain technology. By systematically examining articles published from 2017 to 2022, this review addresses the existing gap by methodically discussing the state, research trends, and challenges of blockchain in medical data exchange. The number of articles on this issue has increased, reflecting the growing importance and interest in blockchain research for medical data exchange. Recent blockchain-based medical data sharing advances include safe healthcare management systems, health data architectures, smart contract frameworks, and encryption approaches. The evaluation examines medical data encryption, blockchain networks, and how the Internet of Things (IoT) improves hospital workflows. The findings show that blockchain can improve patient care and healthcare services by securely sharing data.
