The Role of Civil Society in Promoting Corporate Accountability for International Crimes
Authors: Balouziyeh John M B , Rapp Stephen J 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
This article examines the role that civil society has played in pursuing corporate accountability for international crimes. The article is divided into five main parts. Following a general introduction in Section 1, Section 2 sets forth the definitions used throughout this article and the methodology used to carry out the research. Section 3 covers cases at international tribunals, beginning with an overview of prosecutions of corporate executives at the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg and proceeding to an examination of civil society engagement with the International Criminal Court in cases involving corporate actors. Section 4 analyses cases brought by civil society actors in domestic courts, focusing on criminal cases filed in France and civil cases filed in the USA. This section of the article reviews cases from the USA that have narrowed corporate liability for international crimes and compares them with similarly situated cases filed in France, which has become a forum of choice for victims seeking corporate criminal accountability. In Section 5, we conclude that civil society’s pursuit of corporate accountability in domestic courts has ensured that a greater number and a wider range of actors are held to account, thereby complementing the work of international tribunals, which comparatively can try only a small number of cases, and has offered a ray of hope to victims who wish to see accountability for international crimes.

ABSTRACT
The sensitivity of the MeerKAT radio interferometer is an opportunity to probe deeper into the population of rare and faint extragalactic pulsars. The TRAPUM (TRAnsients and PUlsars with MeerKAT) collaboration has conducted a radio-domain search for accelerated pulsars and transients in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). This partially targeted survey, performed at L band (856–1712 MHz) with the core array of the MeerKAT telescope in 2-h integrations, is twice as sensitive as the latest SMC radio pulsar survey. We report the discovery of seven new SMC pulsars, doubling this galaxy’s radio pulsar population and increasing the total extragalactic population by nearly a quarter. We also carried out a search for accelerated millisecond pulsars in the SMC globular cluster NGC 121 using the full array of MeerKAT. This improved the previous upper limit on pulsed radio emission from this cluster by a factor of 6. Our discoveries reveal the first radio pulsar-PWN systems in the SMC, with only one such system previously known outside our Galaxy (the ‘Crab pulsar twin’ in the Large Magellanic Cloud, PSR J0540−6919). We associate the 59 ms pulsar discovery PSR J0040−7337, now the fastest spinning radio pulsar in the SMC, with the bow-shock Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN) of supernova remnant DEM S5. We also present a new young pulsar with a 79 ms period, PSR J0048−7317, in a PWN recently discovered in a MeerKAT radio continuum image. Using the multibeam capability of MeerKAT, we localized our pulsar discoveries, and two previous Murriyang discoveries, to a positional uncertainty of a few arcseconds.

ABSTRACT
We present a new method for selecting A-type supergiants (A-SGs hereafter) in the LAMOST DR5 data set using the line indices, and identify 40 spectra of 30 A-SG candidates. Based on the analysis of the absolute magnitude of Gaia DR3, SIMBAD data base, ZTF light variation data, and spectral characteristics of A-SGs, we classified the 30 A-SG candidates into 18 A-SGs and 12 A-SG candidates with different levels of credibility. We also subclassify spectral types of 18 A-SGs and 12 A-SG candidates by using human eyes and find a good consistency between our results and those of MKCLASS for most of them. The spatial distribution of 18 A-SGs and 12 A-SG candidates indicates that they are located in the Galactic latitude smaller than 20○. In addition, the distribution of 13 A-SGs and 7 A-SG candidates with reliable Gaia DR3 kinematic parameters in the Toomre diagram indicates that they are located in the Galactic disc, which also suggests that they are young, massive stars. Our selection has worked out well, in that only one A-SG candidate and one A-SG appear to exhibit discrepant kinematics.
Dating Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria with Abundant Eukaryotic Fossils
Authors: Liao Tianhua , Wang Sishuo , Zhang Hao , Stüeken Eva E , Luo Haiwei 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Evolution of a complete nitrogen (N) cycle relies on the onset of ammonia oxidation, which aerobically converts ammonia to nitrogen oxides. However, accurate estimation of the antiquity of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) remains challenging because AOB-specific fossils are absent and bacterial fossils amenable to calibrate molecular clocks are rare. Leveraging the ancient endosymbiosis of mitochondria and plastid, as well as using state-of-the-art Bayesian sequential dating approach, we obtained a timeline of AOB evolution calibrated largely by eukaryotic fossils. We show that the first AOB evolved in marine Gammaproteobacteria (Gamma-AOB) and emerged between 2.1 and 1.9 billion years ago (Ga), thus postdating the Great Oxidation Event (GOE; 2.4 to 2.32 Ga). To reconcile the sedimentary N isotopic signatures of ammonia oxidation occurring near the GOE, we propose that ammonia oxidation likely occurred at the common ancestor of Gamma-AOB and Gammaproteobacterial methanotrophs, or the actinobacterial/verrucomicrobial methanotrophs which are known to have ammonia oxidation activities. It is also likely that nitrite was transported from the terrestrial habitats where ammonia oxidation by archaea took place. Further, we show that the Gamma-AOB predated the anaerobic ammonia-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria, implying that the emergence of anammox was constrained by the availability of dedicated ammonia oxidizers which produce nitrite to fuel anammox. Our work supports a new hypothesis that N redox cycle involving nitrogen oxides evolved rather late in the ocean.
Efficacy of golimumab in rheumatoid arthritis patients at high risk of a poor prognosis: Post hoc analysis of GO-FORTH study using cluster analysis
Authors: Asano Teita , Ishii Yutaka , Tsuchiya Hiroaki , Masuda Junya 
Published: May 2024

ABSTRACT

Objectives
Our objective was to assess the efficacy of golimumab (GLM) in patients with poor prognostic factors (PPFs).

Methods
This is a post hoc analysis of GO-FORTH Phase 2/3 study. Cluster analysis was used to determine a patient population with high-risk patterns based on seven PPFs suggested by the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology recommendations and limited physical function. Radiographic progression, disease activity, and physical function and associated factors were evaluated over 52 weeks.

Results
Overall, 261 rheumatoid arthritis patients were classified into three clusters characterised by high disease activity, high C-reactive protein levels, and limited physical function at baseline. GLM showed suppression of progressive modified total sharp score and decreases in Disease Activity Score 28-joint counts with erythrocyte sedimentation rate and Health Assessment Questionnaire – Disease Index, in all the clusters. In Cluster C that showed almost all the PPF characteristics, a higher rate of change in modified total sharp score ≤0 was observed in GLM 100 mg group than in GLM 50 mg group (63.9% versus 46.5%). C-reactive protein concentration and physical limitation were associated with radiographic progression of Cluster C in GLM treatment.

Conclusions
GLM was effective in rheumatoid arthritis patients in a subpopulation at high risk of PPF in GO-FORTH study. A dose of 100 mg may be more beneficial in preventing radiographic progression in this population.
A peculiar foreign body ingestion in 2-year-old girl complicated by esophageal perforation: case report and review of the literature
Authors: Albarrak Danah , Alrajhi Suliman , Naeem Mohammed 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Foreign body ingestion is a common pediatric gastrointestinal emergency, which should be suspected in all patients who present with signs of airway obstruction or upper GI bleeding, especially if it developed after the child was left unwitnessed for a while. The most common foreign bodies identified in the literature are button batteries or coins. Early identification and management of suspected foreign body ingestion is crucial as it can lead to devastating complications including bleeding, fistula formation, perforation, mediastinitis, or abscess. Here we report a case of a peculiar foreign body ingestion resulting in esophageal perforation in a 2-year-old girl.
Jewish Migration in Literature and the Visual Arts
Authors: Almog Yael 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
This chapter offers a cultural history of Jewish migration and Diaspora since the beginning of the twentieth century. The examination focuses on literary and artistic alternate histories that pertain to the demography of the global Jewish population. The chapter investigates the role of literature and art in ascribing dynamic political meanings to Jewish Diaspora in accordance with historical affairs. The chapter opens with an overview of theories by Jewish thinkers that problematize the binary opposition of Diaspora to homeland and challenge the view of territorial belonging to one place as a main characteristic of contemporary Judaism. The chapter’s second part examines literary and artistic projects that portray alternate histories of Jewish migration and statehood. Literature and art have the power of imagining realities that subvert the political state of affairs. Cultural artifacts that depict a “road not taken” in the history of Zionism expose the contingencies that have determined Jewish relocation particularly since the beginning of the twentieth century.
Traditional Dance, Seasonal Rituals, and Ethnochoreology in Serbia
Authors: Rakočević Selena 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
This chapter offers an analytical overview of theoretical interpretations of the role of traditional dance within seasonal ritual events in Serbia and the former Yugoslavia by ethnochoreologists from the early twentieth century to the present. It traces how local as well as global transformations in cultural, historical, sociopolitical, economic, and intellectual terms have profoundly influenced the shifts in theoretical readings of calendrical-cycle folklore in which ritual and dance intersect. The scholarly narratives that address calendrical ritual-dance events range from traditional and religious folklore interpretations to the positivism and universalism of previous ethnographic research and, more recently, critical and reflexive explications informed by cultural theory. The discussion is based in part on field research experience in Serbia since the early 1990s. It focuses on how the scholarly narratives of ethnographic events have evolved—from the seminal work of the 1930s to the ideological post-1945 period and into the twenty-first century.
Assessments of Suicide Risk
Authors: Stolberg Ronald A. , Bongar Bruce , Thach Tina 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
The assessment of suicide risk remains one of the most important, complex, and difficult tasks performed by clinicians. Because suicide is one of the few fatal consequences of a psychiatric illness, accurate assessment of suicide risk is essential. This chapter presents the assessment of suicide risk from a clinically balanced and research-informed standpoint. The optimal risk assessment integrates a sound clinical interview with actuarial instruments providing supplementary or clarifying information. In recognition of the methodological and clinical difficulties in predicting suicide, the core of this chapter focuses on the collection of critical data and decision points in the clinical formulation, detection, and documentation of imminent and elevated risk in the usual and customary populations seen in professional psychological practice. The chapter emphasizes more general personality, clinical, and legal issues regarding the formulation of a standard of care for adult clinical populations.
Personality Assessment in High-Risk Employment Contexts
Authors: Front Chris M. , Ones Deniz S. , Butcher James N. 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
This chapter examines the considerations necessary when conducting pre-employment psychological screening assessments for high-risk, public safety occupations. Emphasis is given to “select-out” procedures designed to either rule out or identify disqualifying psychological conditions and maladaptive traits. Considerations common to such psychological assessments for all high-risk occupations are explicated, with emphasis on the identification and management of response distortion and the use of multimethod assessment procedures that include the collection and review of collateral records and the administration of psychological tests with demonstrated utility and normative data for the occupation of interest. Test selection issues and the merits of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory–2 are discussed. The chapter then discusses the psychological assessment issues that are specific to three high-risk occupations: airline pilots, air traffic controllers, and police officers. The normative personality characteristics for each of those occupational groups are discussed, and descriptions of effective assessment programs are provided.
Calcium Homeostasis in Dopaminergic Neurons
Authors: Frank Anika K. , Boumhaouad Siham , Fanourakis Stavros , Sulzer David , Mosharov Eugene 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Neuronal calcium (Ca2+) homeostasis must be tightly controlled due to its involvement in physiological processes including neurotransmitter release, gene expression, and cell survival. Intracellular calcium flux is shaped by the combined action of cytoplasmic Ca2+-binding proteins and ion pumps, channels and exchangers on the plasma membrane, and intracellular organelles. Midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons, which possess unique morphological, electrophysiological, and molecular properties, are particularly reliant on mitochondria for energy production and buffering of chronically elevated cytoplasmic Ca2+. An intricate balance between cytosolic and mitochondrial Ca2+ transients, ATP production, and catecholamine metabolism allows DAergic neurons to adjust neurotransmitter release based on previous activity. Dysregulation of these mechanisms may lead to the accumulation of free cytosolic catecholamines and mitochondrial oxidative damage, which predisposes neurons to additional stress. Here, we review mechanisms that regulate Ca2+ turnover in DAergic neurons under normal conditions and in the context of Parkinson’s disease.
Adorno and Marx
Authors: Baumann Charlotte 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
While a Marxist himself, Adorno argues that the analysis of the capitalist system cannot carry its analytic and critical clout unless it is accompanied by a keen interest in system-induced suffering. His insight into the conceptual system of capitalism thus takes Adorno in the opposite direction to his students, Backhaus and Reichelt, who founded the New Reading of Marx. They analyzed capitalist concepts and their systematic connections. However, Adorno reflects on the oppressive nature of systems and the difference that still exists between concepts and the human beings they refer to. In doing so, Adorno develops an unusual critique of capitalism—and indeed of more traditional Marxism—that both draws on Marx and bears similarities to anti-oppressive reasoning.
The Link Between Dissociation and Religious/Spiritual Experiences
Authors: Maraldi Everton de Oliveira 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Dissociation encompasses a wide range of normal to pathological alterations in the usual sense of identity and state of consciousness, from depersonalization/derealization symptoms to psychogenic amnesia and trance. Since the late nineteenth-century, dissociation has been regarded as an important psychological mechanism underlying diverse spiritual or religious experiences, from spirit mediumship to ecstatic or mystical states. However, distinguishing healthy spiritual experiences from dissociative disorders can be challenging. In this chapter, I review and critically examine the literature on the link between dissociation and religious/spiritual experiences. I begin by briefly outlining the theoretical controversies surrounding the etiology of dissociation, more specifically, the debate between the trauma and fantasy models, which bears implications for the link with spiritual experiences. In a second moment, I review and discuss the most relevant findings bearing on this link, and their implications for differential diagnosis issues. I present and explore three hypotheses to account for the evidence: (i) dissociation is a universal psychobiological response to trauma underlying different spiritual experiences, (ii) spiritual experiences involve dissociative processes which differ from trauma-related dissociation, and (iii) spiritual and dissociative experiences are socio-historical constructs rather than universal, recurring phenomena. I discuss the extant findings in favor of each hypothesis, as well as the methodological strengths and shortcomings of the available studies. I conclude by arguing that the etiology of dissociative experiences cannot be understood solely in terms of post-traumatic stress reactions, and that religious/spiritual practices and beliefs should be considered in a comprehensive theory of dissociation.
EMDR
Authors: McMullen Stacey , Lee C. W. 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
This chapter reviews the evidence for EMDR treatment efficacy. It begins with the disorders where there is substantial evidence supporting treatment efficacy. In these disorders (PTSD, depression, and phobias) there have been sufficient randomized controlled trials to conduct meta-analyses. It then considers evidence for the efficacy of EMDR for disorders where there have been two or more randomized controlled trials but not a sufficient number of trials to conduct a meta-analysis. This section examines the evidence for pain, panic disorder, OCD, performance anxiety, substance abuse disorders, and perinatal care. In the following section those conditions for which there is only one randomized controlled trial are discussed. The chapter concludes with comments on what the literature offers in terms of economic benefits of providing EMDR, efficacy of EMDR delivered over the Internet, and the state of the evidence in terms of the contribution of eye movements and other bilateral stimulation in EMDR.
Healthcare and Medical Work
Authors: Collier-Freed Anne , Kaiser Denis 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Adventists promote a philosophy of health that sees an interconnected relationship between body, mind, and spirit. Through the influence of Ellen G. White, John Harvey Kellogg, and others, Adventists have perceived the need to cultivate personal well-being, to care for the sick, and to educate others how to improve their health and to prevent diseases. Starting with Battle Creek Sanitarium, they have founded multiple medical institutions all around the globe to achieve these goals. In the United States, the Adventist healthcare networks are among the largest nonprofit health systems in the country. Adventists have contributed to creative innovations in nursing education, chaplaincy training, preventative medicine programs, vaccines and antibiotics, surgical and medical advances, and health foods. The chapter illustrates the integration of faith and therapeutics with the examples of the extensive contributions of Harry W. Miller and Ruth J. Temple in the twentieth century.
The Development of Adventist Missiology
Authors: Wogu Chigemezi N. 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
There have been several developments in Seventh-day Adventist missiology. This chapter engages Adventist mission from a perspective of continuity, change, and rupture. From a shut-door mission mindset, the Adventist denomination shifted its mission thinking to a worldwide cross-cultural mission engagement. This progression touches aspects and elements of mission theological themes such as eschatology and ecclesiology. In mission praxis, strategic and practical changes have pushed Adventist missiological thinking to adjusting to new difficulties and openings in today’s world. It is in charting these developments that the chapter shows how a close-minded group that emerged in 1844 became a global missionary phenomenon. The trajectory outlined in this chapter reveals that Adventism’s aim to become a church for all nations, tribes, tongues, and peoples is more vocalized and realized in its mission praxis.
Adventists in Australia and the Pacific
Authors: Jackson Wendy 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
This chapter briefly explores the development, expansion, and current state of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the Pacific. Adventists quickly established a presence in Australia and New Zealand that now provides a base for mission in the wider Pacific. Polynesia and Melanesia, however, presented considerable challenges to Adventist missionaries. A failure to adequately contextualize and adapt strategies of mission was a significant factor in the slow progress of Adventism in Polynesia. Much faster membership growth occurred in Melanesia, where schools became the opening wedge for mission and more contextualized strategies were adopted. The church’s Adventist Development and Relief Agency is strongly involved in community development projects throughout the Pacific.
Adventist Views of Inspiration and the Biblical Canon
Authors: Kaiser Denis 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Seventh-day Adventists stress that the Bible is the normative source for theology. They believe that the Bible teaches the continuation of the New Testament spiritual gifts, including the prophetic gift, beyond the apostolic period and in a manifestation of that prophetic gift in the experience and ministry of the church’s cofounder Ellen G. White. In her view of divine inspiration, the Holy Spirit operates in multiple ways and an incarnational manner, assisting the inspired individual to communicate the message but leaving a certain freedom to the person in clothing those thoughts in human language. Adventists have been, and still are, committed to a closed biblical canon and perceived her prophetic gift as having the function of pointing people to the Bible. Her enriching thoughts on the Bible have caused some Adventists, however, to ascribe to her a more authoritative role in biblical interpretation and theology.
