Czy Arabki mogą przemówić? Twórczość Assii Djebar w walce z opresją i dominacją
Authors: Wągrowska Marta
Published: March 2022

Jednym z najczęściej przywoływanych argumentów zachodniego imperializmu na rzecz kulturowej wyższości Europy jest sytuacja rdzennych kobiet w krajach Bliskiego Wschodu. Europejski kolonializm często usprawiedliwiał swoją „cywilizacyjną misję” koniecznością uwalniania ich z ucisku patriarchalnej dominacji, podczas gdy w rzeczywistości to właśnie on zintensyfikował podporządkowanie kobiet na skolonizowanych terytoriach. Na przykładzie twórczości prozatorskiej algierskiej pisarki Assii Djebar zamierzam zbadać, w jaki sposób zjawisko to przedstawiane jest w literaturze i czy może ona stać się narzędziem walki zarówno z rodzimym patriarchatem, jak i z imperialnymi stereotypami podwójnie skolonizowanej „natywnej kobiety”. Przeanalizuję również strategie literackie, za pomocą których frankofońska autorka stara się przywrócić głos swoim bohaterkom.

Authors: Castrorao Barba Angelo , Speciale Claudia , Miccichè Roberto , Pisciotta Filippo , Aleo Nero Carla , Marino Pasquale , Bazan Giuseppe
Published: March 2022

The Harvesting Memories project aims to investigate the historical landscape dynamics in an inner area of the Sicani Mountains district in Western Sicily (Contrada Castro, Corleone-Palermo). The interdisciplinary approach of the project allowed us to combine and integrate methods from different disciplines such as historical ecology, landscape archaeology, archaeobotany and GIS-based spatial analysis. In this paper some results have been summarized. The comparison between land mosaic change during the last 60 years, the relationship between site catchment area and land suitability and the correlation between archaeobotanical and phytosociological data. This approach underlined the relevance of the historical ecology for understanding landscape trajectories and planning strategy of suitable development of rural areas.
Shock-Responsive Social Protection: What is Known About What Works in Fragile and Conflict-Affected Situations?
Authors: Longhurst Daniel , Slater Rachel
Published: March 2022

While shock-responsive social protection (SRSP) has become popular in global and national development discourses, its operationalisation in fragile and conflict-affected situations (FCAS) remains more limited, yet it is arguably here where it could meaningfully contribute to wider nexus approaches. By exploring experiences in a range of countries, the paper explores what is known about the use of SRSP in FCAS, and identifies further areas of potential research for the BASIC Research programme. It also assesses the state of knowledge regarding a number of key questions being raised among stakeholders, namely: What is known about navigating the ethical and political dilemmas around attempting SRSP in FCAS? What is known about the specific requirements for displaced populations and other excluded or vulnerable groups? What is known about when it might be ill-advised to attempt SRSP in FCAS?

Smart Cities and COVID-19: Implications for Data Ecosystems from Lessons Learned in India
Authors: Gupte Jaideep , Babu Sarath MG , Ghosh Debjani , Kasper Eric , Mehra Priyanka , Raza Asif
Published: March 2022

This brief distils best data practice recommendations through consideration of key issues involved in the use of technology for surveillance, fact-checking and coordinated control during crisis or emergency response in resource constrained urban contexts. We draw lessons from how data enabled technologies were used in urban COVID-19 response, as well as how standard implementation procedures were affected by the pandemic. Disease control is a long-standing consideration in building smart city architecture, while humanitarian actions are increasingly digitised. However, there are competing city visions being employed in COVID-19 response. This is symptomatic of a broader range of tech-based responses in other humanitarian contexts. These visions range from aspirations for technology driven, centralised and surveillance oriented urban regimes, to ‘frugal innovations’ by firms, consumers and city governments. Data ecosystems are not immune from gendered- and socio-political discrimination, and technology-based interventions can worsen existing inequalities, particularly in emergencies. Technology driven public health (PH) interventions thus raise concerns about 1) what types of technologies are appropriate, 2) whether they produce inclusive outcomes for economically and socially disadvantaged urban residents and 3) the balance between surveillance and control on one hand, and privacy and citizen autonomy on the other.
The role of the dairy matrix in the contribution of milk and dairy products to the human diet
Authors:   FrieslandCampina, The Netherlands, Geurts Jan
Published: March 2022

Milk and dairy products are an important part of the daily diet in many regions of the world due to their recognised contribution to the recommended intake of a variety of valuable nutrients, the amount of energy (calories) they provide and their ability to compensate for foods in the diet with lesser nutritional value. Since epidemiological research shifted its focus from studying the relationships between specific nutrients (such as calcium, protein or saturated fat) and health towards whole food products (e.g., milk, yogurt, cheese, butter) and health, many unexpected scientific insights were obtained. The anticipated negative health impact of salt and saturated fat was for instance not found in the case of cheese consumption. Besides this observation, many epidemiological studies and intervention trials since then have shown that the consumption of dairy products shows either favorable or neutral associations with non-communicable disease clinical outcomes.
Milk composition and properties: interspecies comparison
Authors:   Agricultural University of Athens, Greece, Moatsou Golfo
Published: March 2022

The present chapter is a comparative presentation of the characteristics of milk produced from ruminants – cow, buffalo, goat, sheep, yak, camel - and equids - donkey and horse -. Emphasis is on topics associated with technological and nutritional/biological performance of milk, i.e., fat globule, casein micelle, enzymes, minor compounds. The detailed composition of the complex lipid, protein and mineral fractions of each milk kind is reviewed compiling recent and fundamental publications. The profile of minor components with nutraceutical potential, i.e., nucleotides, polyamines, oligosaccharides, vitamins, is discussed. In some cases, similarities with human milk, technological performance or digestibility are reported. Although the number of reports is not similar for all species, it is evident that within the group of ruminants, goat and camel milk exhibit the important particularities in their lipid, protein and serum fraction. Equids milk is largely differentiated from ruminants counterpart regarding composition, technological behaviour and potent biofunctionality.

Whey is a co-product of cheese and casein manufacturing processes. Historically, whey was a waste product with associated challenges on disposal due to its high organic matter content and biological oxygen demand. However, with the emergence of fractionation technology, whey has gained recognition as a source of nutritional and bioactive compounds, particularly for its protein and peptide constituents. Findings from in vitro, animal and human studies demonstrate that whey in its various formats (concentrate, isolate, hydrolysate and individual proteins/ peptides) possess a range of beneficial bioactivities. This chapter summarizes the key studies that contributed to our current understanding of whey's health benefits.

Published: March 2022

The physical properties of milk fat are intrinsically related to its chemical composition. This in turn is linked to animal feeding and to a lesser extent to genetics. Understanding the relation between these factors is utmost important to define the effects of animal feeding strategies on milk fat and milk fat rich products. In the present chapter, an overview of high-throughput techniques useful in the study of milk fat triacylglycerols is given. The latest advances in the study of milk fat microstructure structure are summarized. Moreover, the relation between cow’s feeding regimes, milk fat composition and its crystallization microstructure is presented. Finally, we present two cases of study where chemical and physical techniques are used to understand the milk fat thermal behavior and microstructure.

Quality fresh milk is generally described by consumers familiar with the milk type as quite mild flavoured, with core creamy and sweet notes and a smooth, relatively rich mouthfeel. There are flavour differences that are species-specific, but these are overlaid within and between species by flavours that are determined mainly from the feed stock, the nature of which can vary widely through the seasons of the year. Preservation technologies and storage also add to the complexities of the flavour profiles of liquid milk in a time dependent manner. Depending on consumer familiarity and expectations, these flavour differences can be appreciated and desired, or can be deemed off-flavours or defects. There is a wide range of methods available for the sensory analysis of milk, both with trained panels that provide quantitative data on the sensory characteristics and the intensities of the attributes, and with consumers who provide preference and acceptance data.
Understanding the contribution of milk constituents to the texture of dairy products: cheese
Authors:   Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Canada, Britten Michel
Published: March 2022

Milk is an important part of the human diet. Milk constituents have excellent nutritional and technological properties and can be easily processed into a wide variety of products. Cheese is produced throughout the world and is available in a great diversity of flavours and textures. During cheese making, milk constituents are modified and rearranged to produce cheeses with the desired characteristics. Cheese texture is governed by its composition and the interactions between its constituents. The casein network is the backbone of most cheeses and its mechanical properties are influenced by minerals, fat, and serum proteins. Careful adjustment of milk composition and processing parameters provide the flexibility to control cheese texture and meet the growing demand for cheeses with specific characteristics.
Digestion of milk protein and milk fat
Authors:   Riddet Institute, Massey University, New Zealand, Ye Aiqian
Published: March 2022

Milk is a nutrient-rich and well-balanced food containing high-quality proteins with super-digestibility. The dairy products produced from milk make an important contribution to the total dietary supply of nutrients. However, the digestion and absorption of nutrients not only is based on the high quality and the content of individual nutrients in the diet but also is largely determined by the structure and matrix of the food. Depending on the processing treatments during the manufacture of dairy products, there may be different structural modifications of the milk proteins and fat. Structural modifications can also occur because of interactions between milk components and physiological components. The structure of the clot formed under gastric conditions, which influences the digestion of protein and fat during gastrointestinal digestion, and the effect of the processing conditions on the coagulation and the structure of the clot are discussed through a summary of recent studies in the field.
Quality of life and housing conditions of the population in the largest agglomerations and million-plus cities of Russia
Authors: Nozdrina Nadezhda , Schneiderman Inna
Published: March 2022

The role of the largest urban agglomerations and cities with millions of inhabitants in Russia in shaping the quality of life and housing conditions of the population is analyzed in the article. The main problems of the development of large urban agglomerations of Russia in the post-Soviet period are considered. The existing methods of defining their boundaries are analyzed. Based on the calculation of the pair correlation coefficients, the nature and degree of closeness of the relationship between the population of the largest urban agglomerations of Russia and a number of basic characteristics of the housing sector (housing provision, its construction, financial accessibility of apartment purchase in the housing market), as well as with the level of monetary incomes of the population, incomes and expenditures of the budgets of the core cities of agglomerations are determined. The coefficients of the pair correlation between the population of cities with millions of inhabitants — the cores of agglomerations and the characteristics of the housing sector and the quality of life of the population of the regions — subjects of the Russian Federation, where these cities are located, are calculated. The results of the calculations allow us to conclude that the population size of the largest agglomerations and cities has a significant impact on the value of the analyzed indicators of the quality of life of the population. The larger the agglomeration and the higher the population of a million-plus city, the higher the indicators of housing commissioning, the level of monetary income and the quality of life of the population of agglomerations and regions where they are included. At the same time, larger agglomerations have, due to excessive concentration of the population, as a rule, the worst values of specific indicators — housing commissioning per capita, housing provision per 1 inhabitant. The higher level of monetary incomes of the population in them does not cover the higher level of prices in the primary and secondary housing market. As a result, the higher the population of the urban agglomeration and the core city, the lower is the financial availability of buying housing on the market. It is concluded that it is necessary to find an optimal balance between different forms of settlement.

Families with children aged 3-7 during COVID-19: estimate of financial situation and benefit coverage
Authors: Grishina Elena , Tsatsura Elena
Published: March 2022

The paper analyzes the changes in the financial situation of families with children during the pandemic of COVID-19 and the introduction of new eligibility criteria for monthly payments to children aged from 3 to 7 years. The study is based on data from telephone monitoring surveys, representative for the Russian Federation, conducted by RANEPA in October and December 2020, February, May, October, and December 2021. The sample sizes range from 1606 to 2015 people. The results of the study show that the coronavirus epidemic has a negative impact on the financial situation of families with children. The share of poor families receiving social benefits to children aged 3 to 7 years has decreased following the introduction of additional eligibility criteria in 2021. Less than half of poor families with children of this age receive these payments. The benefit coverage decreased significantly among the families with unemployed people — by 2 times. The share of families with self-employed workers, receiving such benefits, has decreased by 2.3 times. As a result of the benefit increase, the share of families with children aged 3-7 years lifted out of poverty has grown by more than two times, but more than 60% of recipients remain monetary poor. This indicates that improvement of eligibility criteria and procedure for determining the level of social benefits are very important.

Si la demanda se presenta por uno de los progenitores en un Estado miembro del Reglamento (CE) 2201/2003 invocando el artículo 12.3, y concurren las circunstancias espaciales para su aplicación, es preciso emplazar al demandado para comprobar si acepta o no la competencia judicial internacional. Sólo una vez que se lleva a cabo el emplazamiento es posible pronunciarse sobre la aplicación del mismo. Esta argumentación se separa de la jurisprudencia del TJUE que obliga a que haya un acuerdo de las partes previo a la presentación de la demanda, pero está en sintonía con la reforma introducida por el Reglamento (UE) 2019/1111 en el artículo 10.
Contractual performance by a third party governed by lex contractus and the effectiveness of avoidance action in insolvency proceedings

Published: March 2022

Upon a request for a preliminary ruling on the articulation between Article 13 of the European Insolvency Regulation n° 1346/2000 and Article 12(1)(b) of Rome I Regulation, the Court of Justice of European Union has confirmed in a decision on April 22, 2021 that a payment made in perfor-mance of a contract by a third party is subjected to the law applicable to that contract and not to the law of the Member State opening the insolvency proceedings where the payment is challenged by an avoidance action. The decision raises some reflections on the correlation between the European Insolvency and Rome I Regulations as well as the effectiveness of avoidance action in insolvency proceedings.
Rebeldía estratégica y reconocimiento de laudos arbitrales
Authors: Ruiz Martín Anna María
Published: March 2022

El presente Auto de la Sala de lo Civil y Penal del Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Cataluña, concede el reconocimiento solicitado por la demandante, de dos laudos arbitrales dictados en 2018 por la Corte de Arbitraje Internacional de la Cámara de Comercio e Industria de Ucrania (“ICAC”) a favor de dos mercantiles ucranianas. Contra la demanda, la parte demandada (la empresa española) invocó en particular la falta de notificación debida del proceso arbitral, y que el laudo había sido dictado en rebeldía, mediante las causales de la Convención de Nueva York de 1958 en relación con este aspecto. Con ello consideraba la demandada que se estaba infringiendo su derecho procesal de defensa y como consecuencia el orden público procesal. El interés del Auto reside en el análisis que la Sala dedica a esta causal en relación con la situación de rebeldía estratégica de la demandada, a la luz de su comportamiento en sede arbitral y judicial.
Divorcio en España y cónyuges sin residencia habitual en nuestro país
Authors: Sánchez Cano María Jesús
Published: March 2022

A pesar de haber transcurrido casi diecisiete años desde su entrada en vigor, los operadores jurídicos de los Estados miembros de la Unión Europea, incluidos los españoles, siguen ignorando, no sólo el sistema de foros, sino, también cuál es el ámbito de aplicación personal del Reglamento Bruselas II bis. Como ejemplo, cabe mencionar el caso resuelto por el AAP Murcia 11 febrero 2021. Este auto confirma, vía recurso de apelación, la resolución dictada en primera instancia por un Juzgado de la localidad de Cieza, por la cual este órgano jurisdiccional se declaraba internacionalmente incompetente para conocer de un proceso de divorcio en el que los cónyuges ni tenían nacionalidad común española ni tampoco su residencia habitual en nuestro país.
Recognition of a status acquired abroad
Authors: Bogdzevič Katažyna , Žitkevitš Natalja
Published: March 2022

This report addresses questions of civil status recognition in Baltic states: Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. All three states restored their independence in the early 90-ties, and since then, they have been developing their legal systems, including – private international law. With time, the relevance of private international law increases, mainly due to the increased migration. However, the doctrine of Baltic private international remains limited. This report presents main legal developments and growing case-law related to recognition of civil status. The ECHR and CJEU case law influenced to some extent, the Lithuanian courts’ case law regarding names and same-sex couples. Latvian courts continue to refuse recognition of non-Latvian spelling of names, and Estonian authorities are the most flexible in this regard. Both Lithuania and Latvia used the protection of the national language as the justification to deny granting the recognition of names acquired abroad. It occurs that all the states do not focus on developing methodologies for recognizing the civil status acquired abroad.
Recognition of a status acquired abroad
Authors: Heindler Florian , Melcher Martina
Published: March 2022

CJEU and ECtHR case law generally oblige the EU Member States to recognise a status acquired abroad. This report shows in detail how Austrian law complies with this obligation and how ‘recognition’ is ensured in Austrian practice. Two general observations can be made: First, public policy considerations and the recognition of foreign administrative decisions and certificates (e.g. birth certificate) play an increasingly important role. Second, whereas much attention is paid to the result, namely the (non-)recognition of a status in Austria, methodologically sound arguments and justifications are missing in practice

Destructive activity of Youth in modern Russia and ways to prevent it: expert assessment
Authors:   Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration, Zerchaninova Tatiana E. , Frolov Ivan V.
Published: March 2022

The article is devoted to the current problem of prevention of destructive forms of youth activity. Many scientists of various scientific specialties are currently engaged in this topic and a large number of studies have been devoted to this issue. The main purpose of this work is to conduct a systematic analysis of expert assessments of the destructive activity of young people in modern Russia and ways to prevent it. The empirical analysis carried out within the framework of this study includes qualitative data from expert interviews taken in 2021. 10 experts were interviewed, including representatives of state authorities, heads of regional branches of Russian youth public organizations, as well as departments of higher educational institutions, teachers and educators. As a result of the study, it was found that the destructive activity of young people is a significant problem in Russian society. The main factors are socio-economic and informational (dissemination of negative information via the Internet). All structures of the state should be engaged in the prevention of destructive activity of young people: authorities, law enforcement agencies, educational institutions, as well as public organizations. Prevention measures are diverse: from strategic (for example, the development of a national idea) to purely tactical (the work of school psychologists).
Professional education in Russia: from standards to educational programs
Authors:   NUST MISIS, Soloviev Victor P. , Pereskokova Tatiana A. ,   Institute — Brunch of RGGRU (MGRI) in Stary Oskol
Published: March 2022

The problem of modernization of federal state educational standards, which no longer meet the requirements of the sphere of labor, is considered. It is proposed to use a common approach to the training of an engineer and a bachelor of engineering and technology, whose competencies are reduced in a broad sense to the ability to research, design and manage. The general professional and professional competencies of a graduate of this field (specialty) should be formulated in the main educational program of each university. It is recommended to develop educational standards for the levels of training for the relevant fields of activity (science, technology, pedagogy, medicine, etc.). The need to improve the management system of training for the modern economy is shown.
On the problems of physical education in a Technical University
Authors:   Murom Institute (branch) Vladimir State University n.a. Alexader Grigoryevich and Nickolay Grigoryevich Stoletovs, An Alexander F.
Published: March 2022

The main problems associated with teaching physics to future bachelors in technical areas of training are considered. These include the insufficient level of basic readiness of freshmen, necessary for the perception and assimilation of natural science and professionally oriented academic disciplines, low motivation of students to study physics, lack of time allotted for classroom activities. In modern conditions, to improve the quality of physical education in a technical university, a reasonable differentiation of the content of teaching physics is proposed, which is most important for the development of general professional and special disciplines in a specific direction of training, the formation of the competencies of graduates provided for by the Federal State Educational Standard. Successful assimilation of the selected educational material is possible as a result of the implementation of the “flipped learning” model in the educational process.
Databases of scientific citation as a factor of destruction of science in Russia and in the World
Authors:   Glazov State Pedagogical Institute n.a. V.G. Korolenko, Erstein Leonid B. ,   Yaroslav-the-Wise Novgorod State University
Published: March 2022

In modern conditions, scientific activity is of particular importance for the development of society. In fact, the success of social development is determined by the level of science in a particular state. One of the most important components of research is their presentation in scientific journals, which are indexed in scientific citation databases. A situation has arisen in which the indexing database of the journal has become almost more important than the content and results of the article published in it. This situation leads to the destruction of science both in Russia and around the world. This statement, of course, requires its own special proof and justification. Based on empirical analysis, it is shown that there are articles in the journals WoS and Scopus with obviously dubious and false scientific results. Historical analysis has shown that these databases are profit-oriented commercial enterprises relying on the resources of the world's leading publishing houses, which led to their success in the competitive struggle. Theoretical analysis has shown that these tools focus primarily on the number of journals and publications, and, consequently, the quality of their scientific articles is questionable. Researchers, instead of free scientific creativity, look back at publication in journals included in WoS and Scopus. National science ceases to exist — the advantages are not obtained by researchers with the best results, but with foreign language proficiency. Scientific work is replaced by competition for the number of publications in journals presented in these databases. The current situation leads to the actual destruction of science in Russia and in the world, since it is primarily a free search for truth, and not competition for social results expressed in publications in journals indexed by commercial enterprises.
The role of education in the formation of the ethnic identity of the Younger Generation (on the example of the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic)
Authors:   Krasnodar University of the Interior Ministry of Russia, Urusova Laura Kh.
Published: March 2022

This article examines the problem of theoretical and practical realization of educational opportunities in the process of forming the ethnic identity of a modern personality. The specifics of the main ethnic cultures of the KBR have been comprehensively studied. Distinctive features and common features of Kabardian, Balkar and Russian ethnogroups are revealed. Ethnic identity has been studied both as a structure and as a process of socialization of the modern younger generation. The personal characteristics of representatives of the main ethnic groups of the KBR are analyzed. The influence of the educational system on the process of formation of a person with a stable sense of belonging to the national community of the state is studied. The conducted research shows that ethnic culture, coupled with the educational environment, contribute to the successful socialization of young people, the formation of a new typology of a modern personality capable of coexisting with other ethno-cultural communities, which is the fundamental task of modern global society.

Latar Belakang: Perilaku self-made diet dan intensitas latihan yang tinggi pada anggota komunitas akan berdampak buruk bagi fungsi ginjal dan komposisi tubuh mereka.Tujuan: Menganalisis hubungan asupan makan dan intensitas latihan dengan fungsi ginjal dan komposisi tubuh pada komunitas gym.Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian cross-sectional yang dilakukan di beberapa pusat kebugaran di Kota Semarang dan melibatkan 54 pria anggota komunitas gym berusia 19-53 tahun. Data komposisi tubuh diperoleh menggunakan BIA. Kuesioner digunakan untuk memperoleh data intensitas latihan (durasi, frekuensi dan lama Latihan) sedangkan asupan makan menggunakan metode Semi Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire. Pemeriksaan kadar ureum menggunakan metode kalorimetri sedangkan kadar kreatinin menggunakan metode jaffe reaction. Analisis data menggunakan uji Rank-Spearman dan uji regresi linear berganda.Hasil: Mayoritas subjek memiliki frekuensi latihan sebanyak 5-7 kali dalam seminggu dengan rerata durasi 105,5±35,8 menit per kunjungan. Sebesar 85,2% subjek memiliki kadar ureum yang tinggi. Terdapat korelasi negatif antara asupan energi, protein, lemak dan durasi latihan dengan persen lemak tubuh. Semakin tinggi lama latihan dan semakin rendah asupan karbohirat maka massa otot dan tulang akan semakin meningkat. Peningkatan asupan protein dan lemak serta frekuensi latihan per pekan dapat meningkatkan kadar ureum dalam tubuh. Hasil uji multivariat menyatakan bahwa frekuensi latihan berpengaruh terhadap kadar ureum (21,5%) sedangkan durasi latihan memiliki pengaruh sebesar 9,7% terhadap persen lemak tubuh.Kesimpulan: Semakin lama frekuensi latihan per pekan maka semakin tinggi kadar ureum dalam darah dan semakin lama durasi latihan tiap kunjungan maka semakin rendah persen lemak tubuh.
The bone marrow niche landscape: a journey through aging, extrinsic and intrinsic stressors in the haemopoietic milieu

Inflammation and its effects in the bone marrow microenvironment represent a paradigmatic condition in which the hematopoietic niche and the immune systems, thought to properly sustain blood cell production and distinguish between friend and foe, can actively sustain a corrupted neighborhood within a chronic aberrant inflamed state. The bone marrow niche hijacks the physiologic hematopoiesis. The interactions between the hematopoietic stem cells and the niche in the bone marrow are critical determinants of quiescence. We examined several approaches to confront the available evidence; three key points emerged, pointing to the chronic inflammation process, especially the chronic infection and systemic inflammatory states, as leading causes of hematopoietic stem cell depletion. Clonal hematopoiesis, defined as a relative expansion of individual clones, is caused by somatic alterations in essential hematopoietic genes, which increase stem cell fitness. Moreover, terminal differentiation plays a significant role in progenitor loss and inflammatory signaling, promoting clonal selection and clonal hematopoiesis conditions. Specific myeloid malignancies as paradigmatic examples are discussed as a condition associated with inflammation, including the 5q- syndrome, Philadelphia negative myeloproliferative neoplasms, and chronic myeloid leukemia. Aging with increased fitness and hematopoietic stem cell attrition, extrinsic stress, enhanced stressor-specific fitness, and intrinsic defect across the hematopoietic process represent the route for novel insights in defective hematopoiesis. The discussion in this review also points out that the hematopoietic niches’ inflammatory stimulation may affect differentiation patterns and the function of downstream cells.

In 2021, Indonesia’s administration decides to conduct a merger among Islamic government bank. The emerge of syariah financial market is the reason of this policy. This study analyzes Islamic banks merger policy by assessing their financial performance. The purpose of this study is to analyze financial efficiency of Islamic Banks and Conventional Banks in Indonesia based on the 2019  financial reports by using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method. Practical contributions of this study for the banking industry was as a guidance for the management in measuring banking activities by analysing the efficiency level so that it can be used to compile business strategies. Basically, financial performance analysis is the result of evaluation of past performance. In this study, we use different analyses in order to obtain a company’s financial position that represents the company’s reality and potential for continuous performance. Business performance represents effectiveness and the efficiency of an organization or company. Company or organization assess their performance to understand their achivement and evaluate their business plans. In this study we developed business performance measurement based on input and output of Islamic and conventional banks in Indonesia. We employ Data Envelopment Analysis which calculate the ratio between output and input. In this study, we use deposits, fixed assets and labor costs as input, while credit or financing and operating income as output variables. In this study, we find that there are several conventional and Islamic banks that suffers inefficiency. This inefficiency occurs due to the ratio of inputs and outputs in conventional and Islamic banks are not optimum.
Volatility shocks in energy commodities: The influence of COVID-19
Authors: Dickson Pastory , Munishi Emmanuel
Published: March 2022

This study investigates the impact of COVID-19 induced global panic on crude oil and natural gas volatility. The author uses the Structural Vector Auto Regression (SVAR) to examine the magnitude of shocks in global oil and gas prices caused by COVID-19 induced panic between 3rd January 2020 and 30th June 2021. The results show that shocks in oil and gas prices were negative and more severe in the first five (5) months of 2020 when the pandemic was spreading across the globe forcing countries' prices into lockdowns. The negative shocks gradually diminished in the following periods as the prices recovered courtesy of global economic recovery and vaccine rollouts. Furthermore, the panic was more pronounced in causing oil prices shocks as gas prices were already suffering amid mild temperatures during the 2020 winter season. The author stresses the need for swift actions during the early days of the crisis to adjust oil and gas supply to match demand shrinkage so as to stabilize their prices given their enormity to the global economy. The Russia-Saudi Arabia delays in agreeing on oil supply restrictions may have amplified the magnitude of negative shocks in oil prices. Existing studies have examined the country-level impacts of COVID-19 on energy prices focusing mainly on oil. However, oil and gas are among the most traded commodities in the world thus the stability of their prices is of global concern. This study examines this phenomenon on a global scale by utilizing the novel global coronavirus panic index.

Organizations today are in a dynamic state and in need to constantly change. This study aims to determine the mediating role of mindfulness in the relationship between perceived organizational support and individual readiness for change. This research was conducted by distributing questionnaires to 175 employees who work in service companies determined by the purposive sampling technique. The existing data is then processed using Structural Equation Modeling with AMOS 3.0 software. The results show that perceived organizational support has a positive effect on individual readiness for change, and mindfulness mediates the direct effect of perceived organizational support on individual readiness for change. Implications and suggestions for future research are also given.
