The Upper Secondary School Act as legal violence in the Swedish welfare state: ‘I came to Sweden just so I could live’
Authors: Scott Hanna , Roos Anders 
Published: November 2024

In this article we investigate the harmful effects of the 2018 Upper Secondary School Act (the ‘Study Law’) upon young people in Sweden who have sought to regularise their stay with the help of this law. We analyse these harmful impacts as ‘legal violence’: structural and symbolic violence embedded in or intensified by law (Menjívar and Abrego, 2012), in the context of Swedish welfare regulation.
The Study Law was ostensibly enacted to provide a new opportunity for some 7,000 young people, the majority of whom had fled Afghanistan. These young people had sought asylum in Sweden in 2015, but had not had their needs for protection recognised, instead being subjected to exclusionary laws, policies and growing racism. The Study Law substituted the possibility of protection with strict requirements of study, work and conduct, while the social and material support needed to fulfil these requirements largely was withheld.
In our analysis, we draw upon interviews with young people collected as part of a doctoral research project, legal materials, and our own, earlier joint experiences as legal practitioners working with those affected by this law. The legal violence of the Study Law, we argue, has produced individual and social harms, particularly impacting the lives of young people seeking asylum. The law has created a complex and hard-to-navigate, legally-violent regime that, directly and indirectly, has exacerbated hardships and facilitated suffering and even death.

Published: November 2024

Background
Clonorchis sinensis (C. sinensis) infection plays an important role in the progression of hepatocarcinogenesis. However, its specific role in HCC progression remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate whether C. sinensis contributes to angiogenesis in HCC.

Methods
A comprehensive clinical analysis was conducted on 947 HCC patients, divided into two groups: C. sinensis (-) HCC and C. sinensis (+) HCC. Kaplan–Meier survival curves and log-rank tests were utilized to assess survival outcomes. Microvessel density (MVD) was evaluated through CD34 immunohistochemistry on hepatectomy specimens. A chemistry analyzer and blood analyzer were employed to measure the concentration of circulating angiogenesis-related biomarkers. Quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to analyze the expression of angiogenesis-related genes (CD34, Ang1, Ang2, VEGF, PDGF) in HCC tissues.

Results
C. sinensis infection was associated with poorer outcomes in HCC patients, with significantly shorter overall survival (OS) (p = 0.014) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) (p<0.001). Notably, C. sinensis infection led to an upregulation of MVD in HCC tissues (p = 0.041). C. sinensis (+) HCC patients exhibited significantly higher levels of circulating angiogenesis-related biomarkers, including MONO (p = 0.004), EOSO (p < 0.001), C3 (p = 0.001), FIB (p = 0.010), PLT (p = 0.003), LDH (p = 0.004), GLDH (p = 0.003), compared to C. sinensis (-) HCC patients. Moreover, qRT-PCR analysis revealed that most angiogenesis-related genes were overexpressed in patients with C. sinensis infection.

Conclusion
C. sinensis infection is closely associated with inflammatory responses and may promote metabolic reprogramming in HCC, thereby enhancing its malignant characteristics.
Shifting employment and perceptions of household responsibilities during early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic in Nevada, USA
Authors: Coughenour Courtney , Chien Lung-Chang , Labus Brian , Gakh Maxim , Usufzy Pashtana 
Published: November 2024

Background
Employment and household responsibility are critical health determinants. The COVID-19 pandemic altered the work and social landscapes in Nevada, USA through closures of workplaces and schools/childcare centers, changing patterns of employment, and household responsibilities. This study aimed to measure changes in employment status and perceived housework responsibilities among Nevada adults in December 2020, before widespread availability of COVID-19 vaccines in a pandemic-affected economy.

Methods
Using a cross-sectional telephone survey of 1,000 Nevada adults, this study compared respondent experiences and perceptions of employment and time spent on housework in December 2020 to pre-pandemic using multinominal logistic, proportional odds, and logistic models.

Results
70.52% of participants experienced no employment change; roughly 24% reported being fired/laid-off, working reduced hours, or quitting. Chi-square analyses found participants of color more likely than Whites to report being fired/laid-off or working reduced hours (p-value = 0.0005), though these findings were not significant in our models. Participants in the lowest income bracket had higher odds of being fired/laid off (p-value = 0.0030), and participants aged 65+ were less likely to experience employment change (p-value<0.0001). 32.43% of participants reported more time spent on housework. Multivariate analyses showed age is significantly associated with changes in both employment status (p-value<0.0001) and housework time (p-value<0.0001); income is a significant factor for employment status change (p-value = 0.0024). Of those reporting their households spent more time on housework, females were 2.90 times (95% CI = 1.66, 5.05, p-value = 0.0002) more likely to report taking on the additional work.

Conclusions
Results demonstrate a disproportionate burden in employment change and/or more perceived household responsibilities on lower income and younger respondents, and females reporting they are more likely to take on additional housework. Understanding systemic vulnerabilities related to employment status and household responsibilities is necessary to aid impacted communities and to plan for future emergencies.

Published: November 2024

Background
Palliative care, vital for patients with advanced, life-limiting or life-threatening illnesses, faces an increasing global demand due to aging populations and rising non-communicable diseases. Specialized palliative care teams (PCTs) within hospitals significantly impact patient outcomes, which requires effective interprofessional collaboration with general healthcare workers. Therefore, We will conduct a realist review to explore the contextual factors, mechanisms and outcomes related to the interprofessional collaboration between PCTs and general healthcare workers.

Methods
Grounded in the third generation Cultural-Historical Activity Theory, this review will follow 5-step iterative process. First, a preliminary literature search will define the review scope. Second, based on the preliminary searches an initial program theory will be developed. Third, systematic searches across PubMed, Embase, CINHAL, Web of Science, and Scopus will be caried out. Fourth, data extraction of included studies will be conducted. Simultaneously, relevance and rigour of individual studies will be evaluated. Lastly, data analysis and synthesis will be conducted in which identified individual Context-Mechanism-Outcome (CMO) configurations will be combined in chains of inference through which hypotheses can be formulated. In summary, this realist review will refine an initially developed program theory, producing a framework elucidating how interprofessional collaboration works between PCTs and general healthcare workers.

Discussion
This review aims to provide crucial insights into interprofessional collaboration between PCTs and general healthcare workers, informing optimized palliative care delivery in acute care hospitals for diverse stakeholders.
Current investigation of neurocognitive functioning in preschool children with cancer: A cross-sectional study from western China
Authors: Chen Zefang , Xu Lifang , Mo Lin 
Published: November 2024

Background and aims
Cancer and its treatments may cause neurocognitive impairments in preschool children, but there is limited research on the neurocognitive outcomes of this population. This study, which assessed the neurocognitive function of preschool children with cancer and analyzed various influencing factors of neurocognitive functioning, is of significant importance. We aimed to investigate neurocognitive function and related risk factors in preschool children with cancer to inform preventive and intervention strategies.

Methods
From September 2023 to May 2024, we recruited 100 preschool children with cancer. The Chinese version of the Ages & Stages Questionnaires, the Spence Preschool Anxiety Scale Chinese Version, and the Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children were used to collected data. Binary logistic stepwise regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of neurocognitive function in preschool children with cancer.

Results
49% of the preschool children with cancer had abnormalities in at least one neurocognitive dimension. The majority of children had abnormalities in gross motor dimension, accounting for 30%, which was related to age and frequency of participation in neurocognitive activities. Communication dimension was related to father’s education level, dietary habit, and frequency of participation in activities. Fine motor dimension was associated with age, sex, and father’s education level. Problem-solving dimension was associated with age and dietary habit. Personal-social dimension was related to age and radiotherapy.

Conclusions
Nearly half of preschool children with cancer experienced neurocognitive impairment. The Chinese version of the Ages & Stages Questionnaires is a simple and effective tool for screening children with possible neurocognitive impairment. It was found that children’s neurocognitive function was significantly influenced by family environment, dietary habit, cognitive activities, and cancer treatment. Therefore, it is recommended to strengthen family and social support, and to formulate personalized intervention such as cognitive therapy and dietary adjustment based on children’s age and family background, which are important for promoting neurocognitive recovery.

Information Disclosure by Informed Intermediary in Double Auction
Authors: Kim Sanghoon 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
In this paper, I study the role of an informed intermediary in improving market efficiency through communication with a buyer and a seller. Based on a double auction setting, I introduce an agent who is partially informed about the private information of a buyer and a seller. The agent can disclose information to either both parties, one party, or none of them. I compare the two most common incentives of the agent, maximizing either trade probability or expected price, in information disclosure. The analysis shows that the former incentive improves efficiency more than the latter; the agent with the former always discloses all relevant information, resulting in not only a higher trade probability but also a higher expected price. The buyer and the seller mostly prefer the agent disclosing information to both parties. When the agent discloses information to only one party, the buyer and the seller desire to be the one who receives the information exclusively. They sometimes prefer the agent disclosing information exclusively to the other party over no information for all. The findings of this paper have important implications for the design of compensation schemes for intermediaries who play a significant role as advisors to market participants.

Authors: Ji Xingxing , Wang Jiahai , Liu Hao , Hao Jing , Ruan Jie , Li Cheng , Zhang Wei , Asghar Aamir 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
The Weining-Shuicheng Fault (WSF) is a northwest-southeast trending fault in the southwest of the South China Block (SCB), which is an important component of the Yadu-Ziyun Fault Zone. The study of its activity is of great significance for analyzing the boundary role of the Daliangshan secondary block on the SCB. This paper derived the following results through field investigations, high-precision remote sensing image interpretation, UAV photogrammetry, trenching technique, and AMS 14C age. The WSF is northwest-trending with a sinistral strike-slip. It has a total displacement of about 2.5–3.2 km, which is equivalent to that of the southern section of the Daliangshan Fault. There are visible landforms such as fault scarps and fault valleys along the WSF, which control the development of the Caohai Basin. The gully near Weining Airport was caused by left lateral dislocations with a displacement of about 4 m. The Tashan trench revealed two branching faults, cutting the latest strata formed during about 13,000 BC. The Wangjiachong trench revealed five branching faults, cutting the latest strata formed during about 20,000 BC. The northern section of the WSF is flower-shaped tectonic features near the plane and activated in the Late Pleistocene.

Authors: Bindal Tanvi , Sharma Rajni , Jain Vandana , Sagar Rajesh 
Published: November 2024

Abstract

Objectives
Parents of children with differences of sex development (DSD) are known to suffer from psychological distress at the time of diagnosis and thereafter. We analyzed the prevalence of anxiety and depression in Indian parents of children with DSD and its associated risk factors, as well as their experiences, perceptions and expectations from the healthcare system.

Methods
This cross-sectional study included parents of children aged ≤6 years with atypical genitalia. Data was collected through face-to-face semi-structured interview using specially designed questionnaire. Depression and anxiety have been assessed using PHQ9 (Patient Health Questionnaire) and GAD-7 (Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale), respectively.

Results
The current mean age of the 43 children (46,XY=26, 46,XX=16 and chromosomal DSD=1) was 36.5 ± 21.4 months with a median age of diagnosis of 5 months (range- 0–60 months). 68 parents (35 mothers and 33 fathers) were interviewed. The score was above the cut-off for clinically significant depression in 27.2 and 25.7 % of the fathers and mothers, respectively; and for clinically significant anxiety in 15.1 and 28.6 % of the fathers and mothers, respectively. The most significant factor associated with psychological distress was rearing a boy with lower EMS in fathers and lower literacy levels (with higher perception of stigma) in mothers. Absence of family support was associated with high levels of distress in both parents.

Conclusions
There is a high level of depression and anxiety amongst Indian parents of children born with atypical genitalia and requirement for psychological support and counseling.
»Geballte Kampfkraft«?
Authors: Pahl Magnus 
Published: November 2024

Zusammenfassung
Die NS-Propaganda glorifizierte die Leistungen deutscher Fallschirmjäger auf Kreta im Mai 1941. Die Kernbotschaft lautete, dass deren überragende infanteristische »Kampfkraft« letztlich den Sieg über die zahlenmäßige Überlegenheit der alliierten Verteidiger ermöglicht habe. Die zeitgenössische interne militärfachliche Auswertung wich gravierend von diesem Propagandabild ab, wie das abgedruckte Dokument belegt. Die Propaganda um die Schlacht um Kreta begründete einen Mythos, der bis heute fortlebt.
Cross-examining the Kagera War: A Plea for Multidirectional Postcolonialism
Authors: Moyd Michelle 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
Military historians can benefit from »multidirectional« postcolonial analyses, which open new possibilities for studying war and militarization. Gendered analysis of the 1978–1979 Kagera War between Tanzania and Uganda crosses the different registers of postcolonialism, inviting military historians to account for war’s multidirectional effects within one frame.
Ein Rückblick auf die Korruption in Russland
Authors: Denisova-Schmidt Elena 
Published: November 2024

Summary
Empirical research, especially on sensitive topics such as corruption, has always been a challenge – and not only in Russia. Since February 24, 2022, research on corruption has become almost impossible; after three decades of courage and innovation, the topic is now on hold. Anti-corruption research is becoming “undesirable”, along with many of the organizations that are involved in such research, such as Transparency International. This paper, which was written before the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, addresses the challenges of the current corruption paradigm. Using informality as an alternative approach, it focuses on two key areas of post-Soviet life where corruption is often endemic and where anti-corruption practices can best be studied: business and higher education. Russia’s history teaches us that it can be difficult to make accurate predictions, but the country remains an important subject for future research.
Negative concord by phase: multiple downward agree and the parametrization of edge features
Authors: Manzini Maria Rita , Pescarini Diego 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
We divorce Negative Concord (NC) among two or more n-items, which is invariably present in Romance languages, from the mutual exclusion or cooccurrence between clausal negation markers (CNMs) and other n-items. The standard minimalist treatment in terms of Agree with respect to a formal feature [n] (for [negation]) is maintained here. However, an EPP-like principle, conceived as a (parametrized) condition regulating the representation of [n] at phase edges is introduced to deal with CNMs. By divorcing the n-EPP condition from n-Agree, we eliminate Zeijlstra’s Upward Agree in favor of Multiple Downward Agree between a phase head probe endowed with Formal Feature FF and one or more elements endowed with the same interpretable feature FF in the WorkSpace. We argue that these theoretical moves are beneficial from an empirical point of view. Focusing on varieties spoken in Northern Italy, we argue that an exhaustive typology of Romance negative systems can be derived by the parametrized [n]-EPP. We claim that the present approach allows this variation to be accounted for within the syntax – specifically, no recourse is made to semantic variation.
Missachtungserfahrungen und Anerkennungsforderungen unter Jüdinnen und Juden in Deutschland
Authors: Herrberg Niklas , Reddig Melanie 
Published: November 2024

Zusammenfassung
Die Studie untersucht, welche Formen der Missachtung Jüdinnen und Juden in Deutschland erfahren. Zwischen Oktober 2021 und Februar 2023 wurden 21 problemzentrierte Interviews geführt. Die Anerkennungstheorien von Honneth und Taylor sowie die Arbeiten von Goffman und Margalit dienen als Heuristik zur Interpretation der unterschiedlichen Erfahrungen. Wir differenzieren vier Formen: Erstens erleben die Interviewten, potenziell nicht als gleichwertige Menschen anerkannt zu werden. Vor dem Hintergrund der Geschichte der Judenverfolgung im Nationalsozialismus sehen sie zweitens, dass ihre rechtliche Gleichwertigkeit missachtet werden kann. Drittens erfahren sie die Missachtung ihrer jüdischen Identität, da sie diese aus ihrer Sicht oft nicht gänzlich selbstbestimmt ausleben können. Abschließend erleben sie eine Reduktion ihrer Identität auf Jüdischsein als Missachtung ihrer individuellen Ich-Identität. Die Auseinandersetzungen mit diesen Missachtungserfahrungen können Ausgangspunkt für Anerkennungsforderungen werden.
