A systematic literature review on the role of sharia governance in improving financial performance in sharia banking
Authors: Minaryanti Annisa Adha , Mihajat Muhammad Iman Sastra 
Published: May 2023

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to systematically review the study of the relationship between sharia governance (SG), which is represented by the Sharia Supervisory Board (SSB), and internal sharia compliance, and whether it can affect the performance of Islamic banking.

Design/methodology/approach
Literature search consists of two steps: random literature review and systematic literature review. The methodology adopted in this article is a systematic literature review.

Findings
The variable of internal sharia compliance, sharia risk and internal sharia audit on one of the indications of SG newly researched variable which will later be used as a new paradigm, to measure the implementation of Islamic sharia principles in sharia banking.

Practical implications
The development of a conceptual framework by using measurement of the new SG has practical implications for sharia bank, which can later be applied to also increase sharia banking performance by complying with Islamic sharia principles. This new concept can be used as a reference by the Financial Service Authority (Otoritas Jasa Keuangan) to establish regulations regarding SG framework, especially in Indonesia.

Originality/value
Further research can add more of it or replace it with other variables that are more relevant, in such a way that it could be empirically tested on how the independence and remuneration (lit. performance allowance) of SSB and the internal sharia control team can affect the performance of sharia banks.

Published: May 2023

PurposeActor engagement (AE) literature shows inconsistent understandings of engagement intensity. However, a holistic picture of the nature of AE intensity is foundational to advance empirical AE models and measurement frameworks. This paper provides a nuanced understanding of what engagement intensity is and how it unfolds on different network levels.Design/methodology/approachThis conceptual study draws from a literature review and offers a comprehensive classification scheme of AE intensity. The literature review extends beyond marketing and service research and draws from the etymology of AE intensity in management and social science, specifically, the fields of student, employee and civic engagement.FindingsThe classification scheme clarifies that AE intensity at the individual level refers to actors' affective and cognitive tone and varying magnitudes (i.e. efforts, duration, activeness) of resource investments. At the dyad level, AE intensity represents relational strength, and at the network level, it refers to the degree of connectedness in the network.Research limitations/implicationsThe research reconciles conceptual inconsistencies in the AE literature. Our classification scheme goes beyond the individual actor and actor–actor dyad and offers a holistic overview of possible ways to operationalize AE intensity in networks.Practical implicationsThe classification scheme can be used as a strategic checklist to include AE intensities of individual actors (e.g. customers and employees), relationships between these actors and network connectedness, when further developing engagement measurement tools and benchmarks.Originality/valueThis is the first study providing a comprehensive understanding of AE intensity from an individual, dyadic and network perspective.

Published: May 2023

PurposeThis paper provides a summary of the issues in the passive fire protection of steel structures. Types of passive fire protection and the material properties of protection members and steel members are described. The paper deals with the possibility of partial fire protection for secondary steel beams, in cases where, due to possible membrane action, it is not necessary to apply passive protection to the entire beams.Design/methodology/approachStudies of partially fire-protected steel structures are compared, and results from studies with different input data are summarized. A fire experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of partial passive protection in a small-scale furnace. Based on the findings of the experiment, numerical models were prepared using Ansys Mechanical.FindingsThe results are summarized, and a partial fire protection length of 500 mm is recommended. Various partial fire protection lengths were compared, and the temperature development of the steel contactors was compared using a protection length of 500 mm. At the end of the paper, options for partial passive protection of steel beams are presented.Originality/valueExtended paper from ASFE2021 based on selection.

An efficient 2.5‐D forward algorithm based on the spectral element method for airborne transient electromagnetics data

Published: May 2023

AbstractThe airborne transient electromagnetics method has been widely used in geophysical exploration in recent years, but it still faces challenges in balancing the accuracy and efficiency of electromagnetic data interpretation. As far as forward modelling is concerned, the higher the dimension of the geophysical model, the higher the accuracy of data interpretation, but, correspondingly, the more computing resources need to be consumed, which will greatly reduce investigation efficiency and practicability. In this paper, the spectral element method is first introduced for solving the 2.5‐dimensional forward modelling of the airborne transient electromagnetic system, which has a smaller computing scale than three‐dimensional modelling and is closer to the actual geological structure than either one‐ or two‐dimensional modelling. In the forward algorithm, a non‐uniform quadrilateral structured mesh is adopted to simplify the computing scale, and the Talbot algorithm rather than Gaver–Stefest algorithm is applied to the inverse Laplace transform to improve the numerical precision of this conversion. Moreover, we use parallel computing technology to improve the algorithm efficiency while keeping satisfactory accuracy. The study shows that, whether a low‐resistivity or high‐resistivity layered geophysical model, the numerical solutions of the proposed spectral element method forward algorithm agree well with the analytical solutions of the corresponding models; furthermore, the key factors affecting the accuracy of the numerical solution are analysed by experiments. Finally, we successfully applied it to the 2.5‐dimensional geoelectric model simulation.

Abstract

Environmental changes can rapidly alter standing biomass in tundra plant communities; yet, to what extent can they modify plant‐community nutrient levels? Nutrient levels and their changes can affect biomass production, nutrient cycling rates and nutrient availability to herbivores. We examined how environmental perturbations alter Arctic plant‐community leaf nutrient concentrations (percentage of dry mass, i.e. resource quality) and nutrient pools (absolute mass per unit area, i.e. resource quantity).

We experimentally imposed two different types of environmental perturbations in a high‐Arctic ecosystem in Svalbard, spanning three habitats differing in soil moisture and plant‐community composition. We mimicked both a pulse perturbation (a grubbing event by geese in spring) and a press perturbation (a constant level of summer warming).

After 2 years of perturbations, we quantified peak‐season nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations in 1268 leaf samples from the most abundant vascular plant species. We derived community‐weighted nutrient concentrations and total amount of nutrients (pools) for whole plant communities and individual plant functional types (PFTs).

Spring grubbing increased plant‐community nutrient concentrations in mesic (+13%) and wet (+8%), but not moist, habitats, and reduced nutrient pools in all habitats (moist: −49%; wet, mesic: −31% to −37%). Conversely, summer warming reduced plant‐community nutrient concentrations in mesic and moist (−10% to −12%), but not wet, habitats and increased nutrient pools in moist habitats (+50%).

Fast‐growing PFTs exhibited nutrient‐concentration responses, while slow‐growing PFTs generally did not. Grubbing enhanced nutrient concentrations of forbs and grasses in wet habitats (+20%) and of horsetails and grasses in mesic habitats (+19–23%). Conversely, warming decreased nutrient concentrations of horsetails in wet habitats (−15%) and of grasses, horsetails and forbs in moist habitats (−12% to −15%). Nutrient pools held by each PFT were less affected, although the most abundant PFTs responded to perturbations.

Synthesis. Arctic plant‐community nutrient levels can be rapidly altered by environmental changes, with consequences for short‐term process rates and plant‐herbivore interactions. Community‐level responses in nutrient concentrations and pools were opposing and differed among habitats and PFTs. Our findings have implications for how we understand herbivory‐ and warming‐induced shifts in the fine‐scaled distribution of resource quality and quantity within and across tundra habitats.
How Australia's economy gained momentum because of Covid‐19
Authors: Rostan Pierre , Rostan Alexandra 
Published: May 2023

AbstractThe objective of the paper is to assess the resilience of the economy of Australia following the Covid‐19 pandemic that hit the global economy in Q4 2019, in years 2020, 2021 and 2022. Quarterly growth rates (annualised) of the Real GDP of Australia and Canada are forecasted between Q2 2022 and Q4 2050. Two sets of forecasts are generated: forecasts using historical data including the pandemic (from Q1 1961 to Q1 2022) and excluding the pandemic (from Q1 1961 to Q3 2019). The computation of the difference of their averages is an indicator of the resilience of the economies during the pandemic, the greater the difference the greater the resilience. Used as a benchmark, Canada's economy shows a slightly lower resilience to the Covid‐19 pandemic (+0.37%) than Australia's economy (+0.39%) based on Q2 2022–2050 forecasts. However, driven by stronger growth than Canada, the average estimate of the Q2 2022–Q4 2050 quarterly (annualised) growth rate forecasts of Australia is expected to be +2.09% with the Q1 1961–Q1 2022 historical data while it should be +1.61% for Canada. Supported by higher growth, Australia's Real GDP is expected to overtake Canada's in Q1 2040.

Published: May 2023

AbstractThis study investigated whether mathematics education based on a multi‐tiered response to intervention (RTI) model can support students' arithmetic competence in primary schools in Sweden. The intent was to identify and support students at risk of failure. In this study, 113 students participated in the intervention, and 30 students participated in the control group. Both groups were followed from Grade 1 to the end of Grade 2 and compared. During the first semester in Grade 1, all students were taught basic addition and subtraction with explicit instructions in Tier 1. Those who did not respond to Tier 1 after one semester were provided support within Tier 2 during the second semester. The same was repeated in grade 2 and the students that did not respond to Tier 2 were supported within Tier 3. At the end of Grade 2, students in the intervention group performed significantly higher on the basic arithmetic competence in the number range 1–9 than the control group. No significant difference was found in a test measuring basic arithmetic competence in the number range 10–19. This study shows that using multi‐tiered RTI might be sufficient to identify and support students at risk in early arithmetic competence.
Party‐interest group ties: The resource exchange model revisited
Authors: ALLERN ELIN HAUGSGJERD , HANSEN VIBEKE WØIEN , MARSHALL DAVID , OTJES SIMON 
Published: May 2023

AbstractWe examine the existence and strength of organizational ties between parties and interest groups by innovating on classic resource exchange theory. First, we propose that the nature of interest groups’ policy orientation and their general organizational capacity primarily explain the presence of ties, that is, ties are less likely to materialize when groups lack ideological policy goals and have limited organizational capacity. Second, the size and types of resources on offer from both sides are what principally account for the strength of existing ties. We hypothesize that resources from both parties and interest groups are positively associated with institutionalized relationships, but also that resources are hierarchically ordered, that is, resources that are exclusive for the transaction are particularly important for ties at higher levels of institutionalization. Using data from a novel organizational survey of parties and interest groups in seven Western democracies, we find support for the hypotheses using an integrated design of analysis.

Published: May 2023

AbstractBackgroundTo investigate the clinical effect of better nursing education on patients' postoperative urination after renal biopsy.MethodsIn this study, patients who underwent renal biopsy in the Department of Nephrology at our hospital were selected as the observation group (July–December 2018, n = 120) and control group (January–June 2018, n = 110) and received refined nursing education and routine nursing education, respectively. Postoperatively, the causes of dysuria after puncture, the degree of postoperative pain, and the urination mode were compared between the two groups.ResultsSix patients in the observation group and 23 patients in the control group needed urethral catheterization, accounting for about 5% and 15.2%, respectively. Therefore, the postoperative catheterization rate in the observation group was significantly lower than the control group, with a statistically significant difference.ConclusionThe refined nursing education proposed in this study can effectively improve urinary dysfunction after renal biopsy and has a clinical promotional value.
Does police patrol in large areas prevent crime? Revisiting the Kansas City Preventive Patrol Experiment
Authors: Weisburd David , Wilson David B. , Petersen Kevin , Telep Cody W. 
Published: May 2023

AbstractResearch SummaryThe Kansas City Preventive Patrol Experiment (KCPPE) was seen by its developers to have produced “consistent evidence of the lack of effects of any consequence on crime,” a conclusion that was to have a strong impact on assumptions about police patrol for almost half a century. We identified the original official crime data from the KCPPE, and reanalyzed outcomes focusing on a comparison of the “proactive” versus “control” beats (“reactive beats” were criticized because of violations of treatment integrity); examining broad categories of crime (to increase statistical power); and using count regression models. Our findings are not unequivocal, but point to modest impacts of police patrol on crime in police beats.Policy ImplicationsOur findings suggest that lessons drawn for half a century from the KCPPE need to be revisited. The KCPPE does not show that police patrol in large areas has no influence on crime, and this finding is consistent with several more recent studies. At the same time, we note that the effects of patrol in the KCPPE using our analysis strategy, and those found in other studies of preventive patrol in larger areas, are about half that found in hot spots policing studies. This suggests that police agencies ideally should invest in focused hot spots policing initiatives. However, absent an ability to manage such initiatives, or the crime analysis capabilities to identify crime hot spots routinely, simpler preventive patrol schemes to utilize uncommitted patrol time can be seen as potentially effective in preventing crime.
Challenges in pea breeding for tolerance to drought: Status and prospects
Authors: Bagheri Maryam , Santos Carla S. , Rubiales Diego , Vasconcelos Marta W. 
Published: May 2023

AbstractDrought is increasingly frequent in the context of climate change and is considered a major constraint for crop yield. Water scarcity can impair growth, disturb plant water relations and reduce water use efficiency. Pea (Pisum sativum) is a temperate grain legume rich in protein, fibre, micronutrients and bioactive compounds that can benefit human health. In reducing pea yield because of drought, the intensity and duration of stress are critical. This review describes several drought resistance mechanisms in pea based on morphology, physiology and biochemical changes during/after the water deficit period. Drought tolerance of pea can be managed by adopting strategies such as screening, breeding and marker‐assisted selection. Therefore, various biotechnological approaches have led to the development of drought‐tolerant pea cultivars. Finally, the main objective of the current research is to point out some useful traits for drought tolerance in peas and also, mention the methods that can be useful for future studies and breeding programmes.

AbstractBackgroundParturients undergoing caesarean section in general anaesthesia have an increased risk of desaturating during anaesthesia induction. Pre‐ and peri‐oxygenation with high‐flow nasal oxygen prolong the safe apnoea time but data on parturients undergoing caesarean section under general anaesthesia are limited. This pilot study aimed to investigate the clinical effects and frequency of desaturation in parturients undergoing caesarean section in general anaesthesia pre‐ and peri‐oxygenated with high‐flow nasal oxygen and compare this to traditional pre‐oxygenation using a facemask.MethodsIn this prospective, non‐randomised, multi‐centre study we included pregnant women with a gestational age ≥30 weeks undergoing caesarean section under general anaesthesia. All parturients were asked to participate in the intervention group consisting of pre‐oxygenation using high‐flow nasal oxygen. Parturients declining participation were pre‐oxygenated with a traditional facemask. Primary outcome was the proportion of parturients desaturating below 93% from start of pre‐oxygenation until 1 min after tracheal intubation. Secondary outcomes investigated end‐tidal oxygen concentrations after tracheal intubation and the proportion of parturients with signs of regurgitation.ResultsA total of 34 parturients were included, 25 pre‐ and peri‐oxygenated with high‐flow nasal oxygen and 9 pre‐oxygenated with facemask. No difference in patient or airway characteristics could be seen except for a higher BMI in the high‐flow nasal oxygen group (31.4 kg m−2 [4.7] vs. 27.7 kg m−2 [3.1]; p = .034). No woman in any of the two groups desaturated below 93%. The lowest peripheral oxygen saturation observed, in any parturient, was 97%. There was no difference detected in end‐tidal oxygen concentration after tracheal intubation, 87% (6) in the high‐flow nasal oxygen group vs 80% (15) in the facemask group (p = .308). No signs of regurgitation, in any parturient, were seen.ConclusionPre‐ and peri‐oxygenation with high‐flow nasal oxygen maintain adequate oxygen saturation levels during induction of anaesthesia also in parturients. Regurgitation of gastric content did not occur in any parturient and no other safety concerns were observed in this pilot study.

AbstractAge‐related immune dysfunctions, such as decreased T‐cell output, are closely related to pathologies like cancers and lack of vaccine efficacy among the elderly. Engineered fusokine, GIFT‐7, a fusion of interleukin 7 (IL‐7) and GM‐CSF, can reverse aging‐related lymphoid organ atrophy. We generated a GIFT‐7 fusokine tumor vaccine and employed it in aged syngeneic mouse models of glioblastoma and found that peripheral vaccination with GIFT‐7TVax resulted in thymic regeneration and generated durable long‐term antitumor immunity specifically in aged mice. Global cytokine analysis showed increased pro‐inflammatory cytokines including IL‐1β in the vaccinated group that resulted in hyperactivation of dendritic cells. In addition, GIFT‐7 vaccination resulted in increased T‐cell trafficking to the brain and robust Th‐17 long‐term effector memory T‐cell formation. TCR‐seq analysis showed increased productive frequency among detected rearrangements within the vaccinated group. Overall, our data demonstrate that aging immune system can be therapeutically augmented to generate lasting antitumor immunity.
