This article empirically assesses the validity of current theoretical models of attitudes toward immigrants and immigration policy in the Asia-Pacific region. This paper takes representative data from the World Values Survey and implements a multilevel model to test five of the main theories in the literature: the human capital theory, the social capital theory, the political orientation theory, the contact/group threat theory and the economic competition theory. The results from the analysis lend credence to the important effects of human capital, social capital and politicalideological variables on respondents’ attitudes toward immigrants and immigration policy. However, the results provide mixed and weak evidence for the contact/group threat theory and the role of economic determinants. Importantly, economic determinants tend to be more powerful in shaping people’s attitudes toward immigration policy than shaping attitudes toward immigrants as people. Altogether, this article sheds new light on the validity of current theoretical models based on western countries for other areas of the world. Finally, the results from the paper also support the usefulness of non-economic, as opposed to purely economic, models in the understanding of individuals’ attitudes toward immigrants and immigration policy in the Asia-Pacific region.

Objectives. Neck recurrence of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is frequently detected after initial surgery. The managementof these lesions may include rescue surgery (RS) or minimally invasive techniques in selected patients, but compara-tive studies evaluating the effectiveness and safety of these techniques are lacking. In this paper, we compared ultra-sound-guided ethanol ablation (EA) in selected patients to RS in a matched cohort. Methods. We retrospectively compared 41 patients and 41 matched PTC patients without known distant metastases, whounderwent ultrasound-guided EA or RS (matched reference group), who had 63 and 75 thyroid bed and/or lymphnode confirmed PTC recurrences during a median follow-up of 72.8 and 89.6 months, respectively. The primary out-come was time until structural recurrence, compared using Kaplan-Meier survival curves. The secondary outcomesincluded time until biochemical recurrence, plasma thyroglobulin (Tg) levels, American Thyroid Association (ATA) re-sponse-to-therapy categories by the last available observation, and treatment-derived complications in each group. Results. No significant differences were found between the EA and RS groups for time until structural recurrence (log-ranktest, P =0.94). The time until biochemical recurrence was also similar (P =0.51); and the plasma Tg concentration re-duction and proportions of patients in the ATA reclassification categories were also similar. A significantly higher pro-portion of patients in the RS group presented treatment-derived complications (29.27% vs. 9.75%, P <0.05). Conclusion. In this retrospective analysis, the treatment of PTC neck recurrence with EA in selected patients was compara-ble to RS in a matched reference group for the long-term risk of structural or biochemical relapse, but with a lowerrisk of treatment-derived complications. These results support the effectiveness and safety of this minimally invasivetechnique in the management of selected patients with recurrent PTC.
