The article discusses the national policy of the People's Republic of China in relation to the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. Recently, the national question in the PRC has been raised again. Its relevance is due not only to the tragic events that took place in the XUAR, but also to the grandiose plans that were set by the PRC leadership on the eve of the upcoming anniversary of the country. Relations with many peoples that are part of the PRC have a long history of development. This article will discuss the history of the development of Chinese policy towards the Uighurs, who are the predominant ethnic group in the territory of the XUAR. Not only the prestige of the PRC in the international arena, but also the implementation of several economic projects depends on how this issue is resolved soon.

A modest assemblage of hexactinellid and calcareous sponges from the Pennsylvanian (Moscovian) Dikanre Formation has been recovered from the Uygur Autonomous Region in eastern Xinjiang Province in northwestern China. Hexactinellids include the reticulosid Stereodictyum proteron Rigby and Washburn, 1972, and the new amphidiscosid species Stioderma sinensis, S. micra, and S. mega. This is the first time the genera Stereodictyum and Stioderma have been reported from Asia. Also included in the assemblage is a silicified porate permosphinctan, Amblysiphonella cf. barroisi Steinmann, 1882, which is the first report of that genus from northwestern China. Species of Stioderma are described from nearly complete specimens for the first time. Previously described species have been based on isolated spicules or relatively small fragments.

Between 31 March and 28 May 1995 and 5 April and 2 May 1996 two expeditions carried out surveys of the status and distribution of the wild Bactrian camel Camelus bactrianus ferus in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and Gansu Province in the People's Republic of China, the last known habitat of the subspecies in the country. The surveys revealed that the wild camel is highly endangered in China, due to illegal mining and hunting. An estimated total of 380–500 individuals remain and immediate action is needed to ensure their survival.

Background: Lung cancer is the leading cause of death in developed countries and is increasing at alarming rates in developing countries also.1 This study is designed to determine accuracy of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) as compare to the gold standard histology examination of lung biopsy. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was conducted,total 46 cases of BAL which were suspected for lung carcinoma and 17 cases of lung biopsy (cases who need confirmation after BAL) were received at G.K general hospital, Bhuj from a period of 2.5 years. Conclusion: Our study conclude that BAL cytology has diagnostic yield of 50%,sensitive of 66.67%,specificity of 100% and efficacy of 64%.

An isolated right prootic of a dinosaur is described from the lower Qigu Formation (Upper Jurassic) of Liuhuanggou, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, People's Republic of China. It is phenetically closest to the prootics of well-known stegosaurids, such as Stegosaurus and Kentrosaurus. Based on this resemblance as well as the co-occurrence of diagnostic stegosaurian material in the same assemblage, the element may represent a stegosaur. If correctly identified, it would be the third stegosaurian record from the southern Junggar Basin.

The history of the appearance of the oirat translation of the “Golden Light Sutra” and its significance in the religious tradition of the oirats is one of the most interesting problems of modern mongolian studies. This paper examines the woodcut text of the oirat translation of one of the most famous texts of mahayana buddhism, “Golden Light Sutra”. Despite the huge number of manuscripts of this sutra on the oirat “clear letter”, only two woodcuts of this sutra are known to have survived to this day. One copy of the woodcut it was kept kept in the manuscript collection of the Institute of Language and Literature of the Academy of Sciences of Mongolia. Another copy of the woodcut “ Golden Light Sutra “, known as the Kalmyk woodcut, is kept in the personal archive of Uwelzeng Genge in the territory of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of the People’s Republic of China.

Two small theropod teeth from the Qigu Formation of Liuhuanggou, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, People's Republic of China are described. They are compared to hitherto known finds of theropod teeth from both the northern and southern Junggar Basin. It is concluded that they cannot be confidently referred to any morphotype hitherto known from the Upper Jurassic of the Junggar Basin. Although the teeth agree well in principal measurements with material previously described and referred to basal tetanurans or basal tyrannosauroids (morphotype 4 of Han et al. 2011), they are both considerably smaller and show the distinctive feature of a lingually displaced mesial carina. The latter feature is shared with Dromaeosaurus albertensis and an unnamed dromaeosaur from the Lower Cretaceous of Spain and Denmark. It is therefore concluded that the material possibly represents a dromaeosaurid close to these taxa. It is the first record of putative dromaeosaurid theropods from the southern Junggar Basin. As dromaeosaurids have been previously announced from the Upper Jurassic of the northern Junggar Basin, this further underlines general similarity in the Upper Jurassic dinosaurian faunas between these areas.
