End Of the Minister's Legal Status in Palestinian Law
Authors: Ahmad Mohammed Hamad
Published: October 2023

The Palestinian law laid down a set of legal rules regulating the Minister's legal status and his relationship with the career status. In accordance with the Palestinian law, the Minister's legal status shall be established through several stages, procedures and decisions between the initial and another end which has the legal effect in the establishment of this legal status, as well as end of Minister's legal status shall be in the availability of one of the cases stipulated by the Palestinian law, either to be the resignation of the government as a whole or to withhold confidence, resignation or dismissal of the Minister or the vacancy of the ministerial position. In view of the fact that there are no limited cases of the end of the Minister's legal status within a single Palestinian law, the researcher, through the results and recommendations of this research, will attempt to solve this problem by analyzing and explaining some legal legislations and books. Therefore, the study will address the on Minister's legal status in the Palestinian law, considering that this matter has a legal effect on the future application.

In  Indonesia  doing  business  with  the  concept  of  franchising  in  various  fields  is currently very popular among the people. Doing business with the concept of franchising  is  desirable  because  in  addition  to  being  seen  in  terms  of  profits  and various ease of doing business offered by the franchisor to the franchisee. Franchising is based on an agreement called a franchise agreement, but there are not a few legal problems that arise with the existence of the franchise agreement. Based on this, this research aims to find out the form of arrangement of the franchise agreement and legal protection for the parties in the franchise agreement. The normative juridical method is the method used in this study. This method is intended to analyze the legal materials related to the arrangements in the franchise agreement and legal protection for the parties in Indonesia. This study addresses the franchise business agreements including agreements  that  are  not  well-known  or  innocent  and  legal  protection  carried  out further regulated in the Republic of Indonesia's Minister of Trade Regulation Number 53/M-DAG/PER/8/2012 regarding Franchising. The legal status of the parties in the franchise agreement in force in Indonesia is independent.

We previously reported that induced type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) increases the susceptibility of acute kidney injury inducedby ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in cynomolgus monkeys. In this follow-up study, we compared the expression ofselected markers in the renal tissues of monkeys subjected to bilateral renal IRI with and without diabetes. All tissues wereobtained from the original study. Renal biopsies were obtained before and 24 and 48 h after ischemia and were examinedfor expression of KI-67 (tubular proliferation), Na+/K+ ATPase (sodium-potassium pump), TNF-α (tumor necrosis factor-α,inflammation), CD31 (microvessels), CD3 (T-cells), 2 fibrotic markers (fibroblast specific protein-1, FSP-1; α-smooth muscleactin, α-SMA), and cleaved caspase 3 (apoptosis). Generally, the expression of these markers differed in monkeys with andwithout DM. As compared with non-DM monkeys, DM monkeys had more cells that expressed KI-67 during progressionof acute kidney injury (AKI). Na+/K+ ATPase expression was clearly present at baseline in the basolateral tubular areas onlyin the non-DM monkeys. At 48 h, its expression in the basolateral area was not visible in DM monkeys, but was still presentin intercellular junctions of non-DM monkeys. The expression of TNF-α was higher in DM before and 48 h after ischemia.Before and 24 h after ischemia, the number of CD31-positive capillaries was not different between 2 groups, although morecollapsed vessels were found at in DM at 24 h. At 48 h, the number of capillaries was less in DM compared with those fromnon-DM animals. DM monkeys had more interstitial CD3-positive cells than did non-DM monkeys at 24 and 48 h afterischemia. Finally, FSP-1-stained cells were more abundant in DM than non-DM at 24 and 48 h. Our results show that DMaggravates the recovery of renal ischemia/reperfusion injury by affecting tubular proliferation, capillary density, T cell infiltrationand by altering protein and mRNA expression of various genes involved in ion channel, inflammation, and fibroticchange. The results from this observational study demonstrate that DM aggravates the recovery of renal ischemia/reperfusioninjury by affecting multiple events including tubular necrosis, proliferation, function, inflammation and by inducingcapillary rarefaction in cynomolgus monkeys.

The benefits of voluntary plasma donations: safety, price, and supply resilience
Authors: MacKay Kelsey J. , Schiltz Fritz , Vandekerckhove Philippe
Published: October 2023

This article summarizes data on blood and blood component VNRD compared to remunerated donations, in the context of safety for patients and donors, price of products, and supply resiliency. This is particularly relevant given the ongoing debate on the proposal for a regulation on substances of human origin (SoHO). Data indicated that when donors are remunerated and therefore donate very frequently, the safety of the patients receiving these donations and the donors themselves is at risk. Moreover, when donations were VNRD compared to remunerated, PDMP prices increased less between 2018 and 2023 and were therefore more cost-effective for patients and healthcare systems. Lastly, the supply of plasma was found to be more resilient during the COVID-19 pandemic when donors were non-remunerated compared to when they were remunerated. In addition, once countries implement remuneration, it cannot be reversed without risking the supply. We strongly urge policy makers to rely on empirical evidence as a basis for decision-making regarding the proposal for a regulation on SoHO.
Xist induction following p53 disability features Septin 8 modulation.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: October 2023

We recently described a sex-specific transcriptional regulation mechanism, found in physiologically relevant settings in breast cancer cells in vitro and in cells of the embryo in mice and humans, wherein mutation or loss of the p53 tumor suppressor results in transcriptional perturbation of the non-coding RNA that functions in X-inactivation, Xist, with this transcriptional change being among the most quantitatively substantial changes transcriptome-wide - naturally, in the presence of p53 mutation, or experimentally following deletion of p53 (1). Here, we studied p53 wild-type and p53 mutant breast cancer cell lines as well as Xist-positive and Xist-negative human embryonic stem cell clones (2, 3) to understand the transcriptional consequences of Xist up-regulation following loss of p53 tumor suppression in development and transformation. We reveal modulation of Septin 8 (4-7) as a transcriptional feature of Xist induction following impairment (disability) of p53.
Generating complex explanations from machine learning models using class-contrastive reasoning
Authors: yang yujia , banerjee soumya
Published: October 2023

One of the major limitations of most black-box machine learning models is the lack of explainability. In healthcare, explainability is important. Furthermore, most healthcare professionals do not have technical knowledge of machine learning. Consequently, it is necessary to translate the predictions of the machine learning model into an explainable narrative. Our research focuses on the healthcare domain. The goal of this study is to generate complex explanations from a black-box machine learning model applied to heaalthcare.Class-contrastive techniques can be used to generate explanations. In this method, class-contrastive counterfactual reasoning is applied to a machine learning model on tabular data (in healthcare). The model predictions are explained by observing the changes in prediction by altering the inputs. This is visualized using heatmaps (class-contrastive heatmaps). This approach displays prediction results as visualizations (heatmaps). Our contribution is to extend class-contrastive analysis of black-box machine learning models to numeric features. Our work also allows machine learning scientists to visually inspect class-contrastive heatmaps and generate complex explanations for models. The resulting explanations (visual and text) are easier for non-technical people to follow.

Quantum Machine Learning (QML) represents the juncture of quantum computing and artificial intelligence, ushering in a new era of computation and data analysis. This abstract explores the convergence of these two groundbreaking fields and its implications for the future of AI.In QML, quantum bits (qubits) harness the unique properties of superposition and entanglement, enabling the simultaneous exploration of vast solution spaces. Quantum algorithms, such as Quantum Support Vector Machines and Quantum Neural Networks, promise exponential speedup for a range of AI tasks.However, QML is not without its challenges. Quantum hardware, including quantum processors and annealers, must contend with issues of error correction and scalability. Ethical and security considerations also loom large in the development and application of quantum machine learning.As quantum computing technology matures, QML holds the potential to redefine the boundaries of artificial intelligence, opening new frontiers in data analysis, optimization, and problem-solving. This abstract encapsulates the transformative possibilities and challenges presented by the confluence of quantum computing and AI in the realm of Quantum Machine Learning.
Attending to talker characteristics: word learning and recognition in monolingually- and multilingually-raised infants
Authors: Bulgarelli Federica , Barry Sophie , Bergelson Elika
Published: October 2023

Before age one, infants often fail to recognize words produced by new talkers or in new accents. We ask whether infant’s varying experiences, namely exposure to multiple languages or accented speech, might influence this ability. Monolingually and multilingually-raised English-learning 8-month-olds were habituated to a novel word-object link, and tested to see whether they would increase their looking time (i.e. dishabituate) when 1) the word-object link was broken (i.e. hearing a new word with the old object or vice versa), and 2) when the word was produced by a new talker (Exp 1) or in a new accent (Exp 2), i.e. changes which maintain the word-object link). Monolingually- and multilingually-raised infants dishabituated to all changes, suggesting that their varying accent and language experiences do not shape word learning and recognition as tested here. This work provides further evidence that 8-month-olds’ word-object links are non-adult-like from a more diverse group of participants.

Authors: PRATAMA VIVIN WIDYA WAHYU
Published: October 2023

Diskriminasi adalah suatu bentuk sikap dan perilaku yang melanggar hak asasi manusia. Diskriminasi juga dapat diartikan sebagai perlakuan berbeda terhadap individu dengan didasari faktor ras, agama, atau gender. Setiap pelecehan, pembatasan, atau pengucilan terhadap ras, agama, ataupun gender termasuk tindakan diskriminatif. Pendidikan adalah hak bagi setiap orang baik laki-laki maupun perempuan berhak mendapatkan perlakuan dan kesempatan yang sama. Kemajuan teknologi turut mengembangkan sarana hiburan yang disuguhkan untuk masyarakat. Salah satu sarana hiburan yang tersedia adalah permainan seluler atau mobile games. Mobile games memiliki daya tarik yang cukup besar bagi masyarakat dari berbagai kalangan usia maupun gender. Penelitian ini menganalisis diskriminasi pada pemain game “Mobile Legends: Bang Bang” perempuan pada interaksi pemain game online Mobile Legend:Bang Bang. Penelitian tentang diskriminasi gender lebih banyak berpusat pada persoalan pekerjaan dan peran gender dalam struktur budaya masyarakat, tetapi masih jarang meneliti pada kegiatan hiburan (leisure). Untuk itu, penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui diskriminasi yang dialami oleh pemain perempuan Mobile Legends: Bang Bang dan bentuk-bentuk diskriminasi verbal yang diucapkan oleh para pemain selama permainan berlangsung. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode fenomenologi untuk menggali pengalaman dari para pemain perempuan. Pengalaman dari pemain perempuan digunakan untuk memahami fenomena yang mengarah pada diskriminasi. Hasil penelitian ini memperlihatkan bahwa pemain perempuan pernah mengalami diskriminasi dari pemain laki-laki. Kata-kata dan kalimat diskriminatif dikemukakan dengam menyebut pemain perempuan sebagai pelacur, disamakan dengan binatang, dan menyebutkan bahwa permainan Mobile Legend bukan tempat bagi perempuan. Melalui penelitian ini, menunjukkan bahwa diskriminasi gender terjadi tidak hanya pada sektor pekerjaan, tetapi juga pada sektor hiburan, salah satunya pada permainan daring.

Eating Behaviors as Pathways from Early Childhood Adversity to Adolescent Cardiometabolic Risk
Authors: Doom Jenalee
Published: October 2023

Objective: To identify specific eating behavior pathways that mediate associations between financial difficulties, negative life events, and maternal depressive symptoms from 0-5 years and cardiometabolic risk in adolescence.Methods: Hypotheses were tested with data from birth to age 15 years using the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC), a birth cohort in the United Kingdom (n = 3,887 for current analyses). Mothers reported on financial difficulties, negative life events, and maternal depressive symptoms at multiple points from 0-5 years and reported on worry about child overeating at 8 years. Youth self-reported restrained, emotional, and external eating at age 14. Youth completed a cardiometabolic health assessment at age 15 where waist circumference, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein, and insulin resistance were measured. Longitudinal structural equation modeling with bootstrapping was used to test mediation models. Results: Greater negative life events and maternal depressive symptoms predicted greater parental worry about child overeating at age 8, which directly predicted greater restrained and emotional eating at 14 and cardiometabolic risk at 15, controlling for body mass index at multiple time points. Restrained and emotional eating at 14 directly predicted greater cardiometabolic risk at age 15.Conclusions: Negative life events and maternal depressive symptoms in infancy/early childhood are associated with cardiometabolic risk in adolescence through pathways of parental worry about child overeating in middle childhood and youth-reported restrained and emotional eating in adolescence.
The Practice-Theory gap: A reflexive thematic analysis of stakeholder perceptions of the value and influence of research and scholarly activities within initial teacher training/education
Authors: Petronzi Rebecca , Frost James , Petronzi Dominic
Published: October 2023

There are varied perceptions of research pertaining to its value within Initial Teacher Training (ITT) design, implementation, and impact. With the Market Review of ITT requiring a redesign of current provision, it is crucial to consider programme design and the role of research, and providers must consider how their programme supports the theoretical underpinning of practice. This qualitative research explored stakeholder perceptions to understand perspectives of research value and application. The sample consisted of university-based ITT/E teacher educators (n=9) and senior leaders from partnership schools (n=2). Reflexive Thematic Analysis led to three global themes: [1] purpose and value, [2] accessibility and understanding, [3] student and stakeholder identity and development. Research and engagement with research/current publications were perceived to be of value within decision-making and improving practices, although barriers exist when engaging with or conducting educational research. We discuss these findings in relation to developing practice and supporting teacher retention.

Learn more from your data with asymptotic regression
Authors: Clarke Alasdair D F , Hunt Amelia R.
Published: October 2023

All measures of behaviour have a temporal context. Changes in behaviour over time often take a similar form: monotonically decreasing or increasing towards an asymptote. Whether these behavioural dynamics are the object of study or a nuisance variable, their inclusion in models of data makes conclusions more complete, robust and well-specified, and can contribute to theory development. Here we demonstrate that asymptotic regression is a relatively simple tool that can be applied to repeated-measures data to estimate three parameters: starting point, rate of change, and asymptote. Each of these parameters has a meaningful interpretation in terms of ecological validity, behavioural dynamics and performance limits, respectively. They can also be used to help decide how many trials to include in an experiment, and as a principled approach to reducing noise in data. We demonstrate the broad utility of asymptotic regression for modelling the effect of the passage of time within a single trial, and for changes over trials of an experiment, using three examples. An important limit of asymptotic regression is that it cannot be applied to data that is stationary or changes non-monotonically. But for data that has performance changes that progress steadily towards an asymptote, as many behavioural measures do, it is a simple and powerful tool for describing those changes.
Trust in climate science and climate scientists: A narrative review
Authors: Cologna Viktoria , Kotcher John , Mede Niels G. , Besley John C. , Maibach Edward , Oreskes Naomi
Published: October 2023

Trust in climate science provides the foundation for evidence-based policymaking on climate change mitigation and adaptation and public perceptions of the urgency of climate change. Here we consider the possibility that lack of public trust in climate science and climate scientists may undermine the effectiveness of climate science communication. To this end, we narratively review three topics of relevance to climate science and climate scientists: 1) The current state of trust; 2) Reasons for distrust; 3) How political engagement affects trust. We then draw on insights from communication and behavioral science to recommend how climate change communicators can become more trustworthy.
The Intense World Theory of Autism: Implications for Episodic and Semantic Memory in Autistic Individuals
Authors: Kirjakovski Atanas
Published: October 2023

This article discusses the memory function in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs), examined through the lens of the Intense World Theory (IWT). Prior studies on declarative memory in autistic individuals indicate deficits in episodic memory, with relatively intact semantic memory. However, the IWT suggests that the observed atypical declarative memory in autistic individuals may result from hyper-reactive, rather than hypo-reactive, neural circuits as traditionally assumed. The article advocates for a nuanced approach in understanding the complexities surrounding ASDs, taking into account the hyper-functionality posited by the theory. Portraying ASD as a product of hyper-active neural systems rather than diminished capacities, the article motivates a rethinking of the approach towards studying memory in ASD, potentially leading to a paradigm shift in both research methodologies and treatment strategies.
Laughter in autism: perception and personal experience
Authors: Cai Qing , White Sarah Joanne , Chen Sinead H.Y. , Mueller Marie A. E. , Scott Sophie K
Published: October 2023

Human interaction is immersed in laughter; though genuine and posed laughter are acoustically distinct, they are both crucial socio-emotional signals. In this novel study, autistic and non-autistic adults explicitly rated the affective properties of genuine and posed laughter. Additionally, we explored whether their self-reported everyday experiences with laughter differ. Both groups could differentiate between these two types of laughter. However, autistic adults rated posed laughter as more authentic and emotionally arousing than non-autistic adults, perceiving it to be similar to genuine laughter. Autistic adults reported laughing less, deriving less enjoyment from laughter, and experiencing difficulty in understanding the social meaning of other people’s laughter compared to non-autistic people. Despite these differences, autistic adults reported using laughter socially as often as non-autistic adults, leveraging it to mediate social contexts. Our findings suggest that autistic adults show subtle differences in their perception of laughter, which may be associated with their struggles in comprehending the social meaning of laughter, as well as their diminished frequency and enjoyment of laughter in everyday scenarios. By combining experimental evidence with first-person experiences, this study suggests that autistic adults likely employ different strategies to understand laughter in everyday contexts, potentially leaving them socially vulnerable in communication.
The gravity of the status quo: the response of research governance to system-level shocks
Authors: Derrick Gemma Elizabeth , Robson James , Oancea Alis , Xu Xin , Stan Maria Rucsandra
Published: October 2023

Using semi-structured interviews with n=69 global research stakeholders, , this research explores the ways in which stakeholders within system-level research governance organisations conceptualised, responded to, and reasoned the realities of disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and how they positioned procedural changes to their governance mechanisms. Given that shocks to systems present critical challenges to established practices and embedded institutional norms, we use neo-institutional theory as a heuristic device to examine the relationship between the exogenous shock of COVID-19, trajectories of institutional norms and cultures, and the role institutional stakeholders play in managing responses. Across all the research systems studied (with particular focus on the UK, Australia, Norway, New Zealand, Hong Kong SAR and Italy), participants were concerned about how the shock provided by COVID-19 had both revealed and entrenched deep inequalities (between individuals and between organisations) inherent in their research systems and globally. There were tensions in how participants centralised the concept of the ‘normal’ as part of a process of recovery permeating all system-level responses, often with a sense of nostalgia for past structures (a pre-pandemic ‘golden age’ of research), modes of operation, and embedded norms. Aspirations for short-, medium- and long-term plans for research change echoed a dependency on returning to ‘normal’ and reflected an inevitable pull of the norms of the pre-pandemic status quo. Despite the desire of individuals involved in research governance to ‘build back better’, the pull of institutional norms and the gravitational force of the status quo appears too strong for meaningful change to happen in recovering research systems.
Automation and Income Inequality in Europe
Authors: Dooley Karina , Gromadzki Jan , Lewandowski Piotr , Tuda Dora , Van Kerm Philippe
Published: October 2023

We study the effects of robot penetration on household income inequality in 14 European countries between 2006–2018, a period marked by the rapid adoption of industrial robots. Automation reduced relative hourly wages and employment of more exposed demographic groups, similarly to the results for the United States. Using robot-driven wage and employment shocks as input to the EUROMOD microsimulation model, we find that automation had minor effects on income inequality. Household labour income diversification and tax and welfare policies largely absorbed labour market shocks caused by automation. Transfers played a key role in cushioning the transmission of these shocks to household incomes.

Burhān al-Dīn al-Zarnūjī in his treatise Ta'līm al-Muta'allim Ṭorīq al-Ta'allum informed that the academic achievement has six things dependency: ingenious acumen (intelligences), fervent desire (motivation), patience (when find difficulties), sufficent sustenance (to complete learning), guidance of a teacher (through learning), and length of time (intensively). Based on this perspective, we was empirically tested students scientific literacy through correlational research. In particular, first, multiple intelligences was examined based on Multiple Intelligences Survey (MIS). Second, science learning motivation was explored used Science Motivation Questionnaire II (SMQ-II). Third, scientific literacy was tested that focused on competence domain and environmental content. The participants of the study were 128 secondary students in Kabupaten Kudus choosen by random sampling technique. We used Pearson r to elaborate relation of scientific literacy with each type of multiple intelligences nor component of science learning motivation. It reveals that naturalistic intelligence and self-efficacy has strong correlation with scientific literacy. The findings suggest that it is important to facilitate students’ intelligence and motivations to guide them on achieving scientific literacy.
DETERMINATION OF SUITABLE BEEKEEPING PLACES BY WEIGHTED OVERLAY ANALYSIS: A CASE STUDY OF BOLU, TÜRKİYE
Authors: Yaman Şule , Yaman Mustafa
Published: October 2023

Beekeeping is one of the main livelihoods of our country, and our country's rich geography, different climate and topography are quite suitable for beekeeping. The increase in interest in beekeeping activities has led to more income with less maintenance and expense compared to other agricultural activities. The increasing interest has also revealed the necessity of determining suitable places for beekeeping to increase beekeeping activities' efficiency. For this purpose, weighted overlay analysis, which is one of the Geographical Information Systems (GIS) techniques, was carried out using ArcGIS 10.7.1 in this study for the province of Bolu. Slope, aspect, elevation, precipitation, vegetation and distance to roads, streams and settlements were used for analysis. As a result of the analyzes made, it was determined that 90.95% of Bolu province is suitable for beekeeping activities. In addition, it has been determined whether the existing beekeeping locations are suitable for beekeeping.
INTERAÇÃO ESCOLA FAMÍLIA E O ESTUDO DA MATEMÁTICA NO DIA A DIA DAS PESSOAS
Authors: Augusto Emerson Aparecido
Published: October 2023

A escola é um espaço onde diversas pessoas expõem suas opiniões e formam sua identidade. O processo de formação de uma escola se dá por meio de luta por direito de todos que a compõe. As instituições de ensino são compostas pela comunidade do seu entorno, e esta integração entre escola, família e o estudo da matemática no dia a dia das pessoas, irá definir a identidade da mesma, de acordo com a cultura a identidade de cada um. A participação da comunidade e da família entra neste contexto como elemento de mediação entre a escola e o aluno, sendo estes os principais elementos responsáveis pela educação do aluno. A falta de participação declara muitas vezes a falta de interesse das famílias perante a educação dos filhos, e esta responsabilidade não pode ser jogada à escola ou aos professores. Mas esta participação principalmente no processo pedagógico dos alunos num processo onde se se utiliza o método do raciocínio lógico através de cálculos financeiros e matemáticos, contribui para bons resultados e a garantia de educação com mais qualidade, contribuindo também para o melhor rendimento escolar do aluno e o melhor andamento da instituição no processo de ensino.

O paradigma estrutura- conduta-desempenho (ECD) foi concebido há mais de meio século, num esforço para contextualizar e explicar a dinâmica da indústria, enquanto atividade econômica. Discutir modelos de Economia Industrial sempre está associado à gestão de decisões estratégicas e à inovação tecnológica. No estudo em tela, tem-se a DSM, empresa global, de base científica, especializada em saúde e nutrição humana e animal. A Royal DSM N.V. é uma empresa limitada por ações cotadas na Euronext Amsterdam Stock Exchange, com um Conselho de Administração e um Conselho Fiscal independente. No entanto, o quadro foi também adaptado para a gestão estratégica, e na área dos grupos estratégicos ocupa uma posição de destaque na literatura. Este estudo tem como objetivo abordar a ECD associada a DSM com o foco de casar-se P&D e I&D. Para tanto fez-se uso da metodologia de estudos de caso que responde a diversificação e fusões anos a fora da DSM. Como resultados obteve-se que parte do sucesso pode ser explicado através de condutas inovadoras que focaram em sustentabilidade e fusões em conglomerado.

Published: October 2023

Por definição, entomofagia é o ato de alimentar-se de insetos. Essa prática por seres humanos é realidade em vários países, porém não é algo que os governos nacionais promovam.  A utilização de insetos como parte da alimentação humana tem sido vista com bons olhos, pois traz consigo três importantes fatores: propriedades nutricionais, fatores de meio ambiente além de vantagens socioeconômicas. O principal elemento existente nos insetos comestíveis é a proteína, que, em muitos casos apresentam um nível superior dessa substância quando comparados a outros animais e ou vegetais, que normalmente são utilizados na alimentação humana. Fundamentado nessa idéia, este trabalho traz como objetivo, através de uma pesquisa bibliográfica de caráter qualitativo, falar sobre a utilização de insetos na rotina alimentar humana, bem como suas vantagens, formas de utilização, conservação e preparo.
