Hegel on Market Laws and External Teleology
Authors: Baumann Charlotte 
Published: July 2022

AbstractBy highlighting the logico-metaphysical undergirding of Hegel's discussion of the market, this article brings to light certain proto-Marxist or proto-socialist tendencies in Hegel as well as key disagreements with Adam Smith, which have been missed by recent studies like Herzog's Inventing the Market (2013). For Smith, market laws function like an impartial arbiter that rewards honest effort; his main worry is that individuals may fail to display virtues like honesty, probity and frugality, thereby hindering the smooth functioning of the market mechanism. For Hegel, by contrast, the market is a de-personalized player in its own right that imposes its arbitrary rule, a rule that does not reflect in any way the virtues and efforts of market participants. This assessment is easily overlooked, unless one realizes that Hegel believes the market to be functioning according to the structures that he discusses in the ‘Objectivity’ section in his Science of Logic. As a consequence of this assessment Hegel attributes a different role to the state than Smith does: Rather than aiding and shaping individuals, by means of institutions, education and health care, the state needs to address the structural functioning of market laws and, to some extent, inhibit its free-flowing functioning. Individuals need to re-appropriate their own social relations by organizing them along the lines of the logical organism or internal teleology. After outlining Hegel's interpretation and assessment of the market structures with the help of the Logic, I will discuss Hegel's demand for an organic state, that sublates and oversees the market, thereby safeguarding the important personal freedoms enjoyed by market participants.

AbstractFolate and vitamin B12 are essential for growth. Our objective was to estimate their long-term effects on linear growth in North Indian children. This is a follow-up study of a factorial designed, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial in 1000 young children. Starting at 6–30 months of age, we gave folic acid (approximately 2 RDA), vitamin B12 (approximately 2 RDA), both vitamins or a placebo daily for 6 months. Six years after the end of supplementation, we measured height in 791 children. We used the plasma concentrations of cobalamin, folate and total homocysteine to estimate vitamin status. The effect of the interventions, the association between height-for-age z-scores (HAZ) and baseline vitamin status, and the interactions between supplementation and baseline status were estimated in multiple regression models. Mean (sd) age at follow-up was 7·4 (0·7) years (range 6 to 9 years). There was a small, non-significant effect of vitamin B12 on linear growth and no effect of folic acid. We observed a subgroup effect of vitamin B12 supplementation in those with plasma cobalamin concentration < 200 pmol/l (Pfor interaction = 0·01). The effect of vitamin B12 supplementation in this group was 0·34 HAZ (95 % CI 0·11, 0·58). We found an association between cobalamin status and HAZ in children not given vitamin B12 (Pfor interaction = 0·001). In this group, each doubling of the cobalamin concentration was associated with 0·26 (95 % CI 0·15, 0·38) higher HAZ. Suboptimal vitamin B12 status in early childhood seemingly limits linear growth in North Indian children.
INTERNATIONAL LAW BEFORE UNITED KINGDOM COURTS: A QUIET REVOLUTION
Authors: Lloyd-Jones Lord 
Published: July 2022

AbstractIn the 36 years since Francis Mann published Foreign Affairs in English Courts, the engagement of the United Kingdom courts with issues of international law has greatly increased. This article addresses the reasons underlying this trend and identifies four key developments: first, the nature of international law has evolved to embrace individuals as subjects; second, the Human Rights Act 1998 has had a profound influence, often requiring domestic courts to rule on matters of international law in order to give effect to the European Convention on Human Rights; third, in recent decades there has been a growing willingness on the part of courts in the United Kingdom to address and investigate the conduct of foreign States and issues of public international law; and fourth, these developments have been accompanied by a shift in attitudes to the relationship between customary international law and the common law.
Earnings Growth and Acquisition Returns: Do Investors Gamble in the Takeover Market?
Authors: Liu Tingting , Tu Danni 
Published: July 2022

AbstractWe document a strong positive initial market reaction to merger announcements from bidders with either large earnings growth or significant earnings decline, relative to those with neutral earnings change, reflecting a U-shaped pattern between bidders’ earnings growth and announcement returns. However, the higher initial returns for bidders with earnings decline subsequently reverse, whereas the higher returns for bidders with high growth do not. We further show that the return patterns are driven by a tendency for retail investors to gamble that merger and acquisition deals initiated by poorly performing bidders will generate high synergies.
Access to Finance and Technological Innovation: Evidence from Pre-Civil War America
Authors: Mao Yifei , Wang Jessie Jiaxu 
Published: July 2022

AbstractThis article provides new evidence on how access to finance affects technological innovation and establishes the role of labor practices in shaping this relation. We exploit a unique setting, pre-Civil War America, where staggered adoption of free banking laws across states encouraged bank entry, and variation in the use of exploited workers in agriculture generated differences in producers’ demands for labor-saving technologies. Results show that access to finance spurred innovation; the positive effect on agricultural innovation diminished with labor exploitation. We establish the causal role of labor exploitation using the 1850s cholera pandemic and the influx of Irish immigrants.
Women amid the COVID-19 pandemic: Self-protection through the behavioral immune system
Authors: Troisi Alfonso 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
Studies of the activation of the behavioral immune system triggered by the coronavirus disease-2019 pandemic have demonstrated that evolutionary explanations of individual differences in self-protection should not be based only on parental investment and sexual selection theory. An evolutionary model must also incorporate individual differences that arise within each sex as a result of life history strategies and attachment patterns.
Staying alive includes adaptations for catalyzing cooperation
Authors: Cassar Alessandra 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
The target article interprets women's lower competitiveness than men's as evidence of adaptation to help women avoid physical conflicts and stay alive. This commentary advances the additional hypothesis that strategically suppressing competitiveness, thus signaling egalitarian intentions, could be an adaptation to catalyze cooperative behavior from males and females, turning natural competitors (other women) into allies and men into supportive partners.
The pregnancy compensation hypothesis, not the staying alive theory, accounts for disparate autoimmune functioning of women around the world
Authors: O'Mara Kunz Erin M. , Goodnight Jackson A. , Wilson Melissa A. 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
The pregnancy compensation hypothesis provides a mechanistic explanation for the evolution of sex differences in immune system functioning, the excess of women experiencing autoimmune disease, and why this is observed only in industrialized nations; none of which can be explained by the staying alive theory, as proposed by the authors of the target article.
Psychological and behavioral implications of self-protection and self-enhancement
Authors: Tice Dianne M. , Baumeister Roy F. , Sedikides Constantine 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
Self-protection can have psychological and behavioral implications. We contrast them with the implications of a self-enhancement strategy. Both self-enhancement and self-protection have costs and benefits as survival strategies, and we identify some of the emotional, cognitive, and behavioral tradeoffs associated with the differential preferences for each strategy. New analyses on a large existing data set confirm the target article's hypothesis that women are more attuned than men to potential negative consequences of innovations.

AbstractObjectives:Studies have demonstrated the efficacy of mechanical devices at delivering high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (HQ-CPR) in various transport settings. Herein, this study investigates the efficacy of manual and mechanical HQ-CPR delivery on a fire rescue boat.Methods:A total of 15 active firefighter-paramedics were recruited for a prospective manikin-based trial. Each paramedic performed two minutes manual compression-only CPR while navigating on a river-based fire rescue boat. The boat was piloted in either a stable linear manner or dynamic S-turn manner to simulate obstacle avoidance. For each session of manual HQ-CPR, a session of mechanical HQ-CPR was also performed with a LUCAS 3 (Stryker; Kalamazoo, Michigan USA). A total of 60 sessions were completed. Parameters recorded included compression fraction (CF) and the percentage of compressions with correct depth >5cm (D%), correct rate 100-120 (R%), full release (FR%), and correct hand position (HP%). A composite HQ-CPR score was calculated as follows: ((D% + R% + FR% + HP%)/4) * CF%). Differences in magnitude of change seen in stable versus dynamic navigation within study conditions were evaluated with a Z-score calculation. Difficulty of HQ-CPR delivery was assessed utilizing the Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion Scale.Results:Participants were mostly male and had a median experience of 20 years. Manual HQ-CPR delivered during stable navigation out-performed manual HQ-CPR delivered during dynamic navigation for composite score and trended towards superiority for FR% and R%. There was no difference seen for any measured variable when comparing mechanical HQ-CPR delivered during stable navigation versus dynamic navigation. Mechanical HQ-CPR out-performed manual HQ-CPR during both stable and dynamic navigation in terms of composite score, FR%, and R%. Z-score calculation demonstrated that manual HQ-CPR delivery was significantly more affected by drive style than mechanical HQ-CPR delivery in terms of composite HQ-CPR score and trended towards significance for FR% and R%. Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion was higher for manual CPR delivered during dynamic sessions than for stable sessions.Conclusion:Mechanical HQ-CPR delivery is superior to manual HQ-CPR delivery during both stable and dynamic riverine navigation. Whereas manual HQ-CPR delivery was worse during dynamic transportation conditions compared to stable transport conditions, mechanical HQ-CPR delivery was unaffected by drive style. This suggests the utility of routine use of mechanical HQ-CPR devices in the riverine patient transport setting.
A Palette for a Prince: The Colours in the Shahnamah for Muhammad Juki
Authors: PORTER CHERYL 
Published: July 2022

AbstractThe Shahnamah (RAS 239) copied for the Timurid prince, Muhammad Juki (1402–1445) in Herat, has long been considered one of the finest surviving, illustrated Timurid manuscripts. It was presented to the RAS in 1834 by Lieutenant Colonel Doyle (1787–1848), but attracted little scholarly attention until Barbara Brend published her monograph in 2010. The manuscript contains 31 exquisite miniature paintings, two of which (fol. 430v and fol. 531r) were added later during the Mughal period (1526–1761). This article will examine the sumptuous, jewel-like colours employed to depict scenes from the epic and the metals, pigments, and dyes from which they were derived. Precious metals and organic colours made from plants such as indigo and lac extracted from female insects are examined in detail: the methods of their production and extraction, the techniques used for their application, their commercial value, and the prestige they afforded their patrons all contribute to an understanding of what constituted the miniature painters' palette in the Timurid period.
Cascading expert failure
Authors: Murphy Jon 
Published: July 2022

AbstractRecent research has shown how experts may fail in their duty as advisors by providing advice that leads to a worse outcome than that anticipated by the user of expert opinion. However, those models have focused on the immediate effects of the failure on experts and nonexperts. Using a cascading network failure model, I show how expert failure can cascade throughout multiple sectors, even those not necessarily purchasing the expert opinion. Consequently, even relatively small failures end up having outsized aggregate effects. To provide evidence of my theory, I look at two case studies of COVID expert advice to show how one seemingly minor failure ended up contributing to the pandemic. I conclude with a discussion on institutional frameworks that can prevent such cascades.
A prediction-focused approach to personality modeling
Authors: Lavi Gal , Rosenblatt Jonathan , Gilead Michael 
Published: July 2022

AbstractIn the current study, we set out to examine the viability of a novel approach to modeling human personality. Research in psychology suggests that people’s personalities can be effectively described using five broad dimensions (the Five-Factor Model; FFM); however, the FFM potentially leaves room for improved predictive accuracy. We propose a novel approach to modeling human personality that is based on the maximization of the model’s predictive accuracy. Unlike the FFM, which performs unsupervised dimensionality reduction, we utilized a supervised machine learning technique for dimensionality reduction of questionnaire data, using numerous psychologically meaningful outcomes as data labels (e.g., intelligence, well-being, sociability). The results showed that our five-dimensional personality summary, which we term the “Predictive Five” (PF), provides predictive performance that is better than the FFM on two independent validation datasets, and on a new set of outcome variables selected by an independent group of psychologists. The approach described herein has the promise of eventually providing an interpretable, low-dimensional personality representation, which is also highly predictive of behavior.

AbstractNearly two decades ago, pathologic examination results suggested that acoustic factors, such as mid-frequency active naval military sonar (MFAS) could be the cause of acute decompression-like sickness in stranded beaked whales. Acute systemic gas embolism in these whales was reported together with enigmatic cystic liver lesions (CLL), characterized by intrahepatic encapsulated gas-filled cysts, tentatively interpreted as “gas-bubble” lesions in various other cetacean species. Here we provide a pathologic reinterpretation of CLL in odontocetes. Among 1,200 cetaceans necropsied, CLL were only observed in four striped dolphins (Stenella coeruleoalba), with a low prevalence (2%, N = 179). Together, our data strongly suggest that CLL are the result of the combination of a pre-existing or concomitant hepatic vascular disorder superimposed and exacerbated by gas bubbles, and clearly differ from acute systemic gas embolism in stranded beaked whales that is linked to MFAS. Budd-Chiari-like syndrome in dolphins is hypothesized based on the present pathologic findings. Nonetheless, further researched is warranted to determine precise etiopathogenesis(es) and contributing factors for CLL in cetaceans.

AbstractThe aim of this study was to compare acetabular offset, femoral offset, and global offset measurements obtained after total hip arthroplasty (THA) between a two-dimensional (2D) method and a three-dimensional (3D) method. The subjects were 89 patients with unilateral osteoarthritis who underwent primary THA at our institution. Acetabular, femoral, and global offsets were measured by each of the 2D and 3D methods in native and implanted hips. In native hips, mean acetabular, femoral, and global offsets were 32.4 ± 3.3, 32.7 ± 4.5, 65.1 ± 5.7 mm, respectively, by the 2D method, and 32.3 ± 3.1, 38.1 ± 4.0, 70.4 ± 4.9 mm, respectively, by the 3D method. In implanted hips, mean acetabular, femoral, and global offsets were 27.6 ± 4.1, 33.8 ± 7.8, 61.4 ± 8.5 mm, respectively, by the 2D method, and 27.6 ± 3.9, 41.8 ± 6.2, 69.4 ± 7.2 mm, respectively, by the 3D method. There was significant difference in femoral and global offsets between the 2D and 3D methods in both native and implanted hips. Comparison of the 2D and 3D methods for evaluation of acetabular, femoral, and global offsets after THA clarified the usefulness and accuracy of the 3D method.
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) memristor arrays for analog-based machine learning hardware
Authors: Xie Jing , Afshari Sahra , Sanchez Esqueda Ivan 
Published: July 2022

AbstractRecent studies of resistive switching devices with hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) as the switching layer have shown the potential of two-dimensional (2D) materials for memory and neuromorphic computing applications. The use of 2D materials allows scaling the resistive switching layer thickness to sub-nanometer dimensions enabling devices to operate with low switching voltages and high programming speeds, offering large improvements in efficiency and performance as well as ultra-dense integration. These characteristics are of interest for the implementation of neuromorphic computing and machine learning hardware based on memristor crossbars. However, existing demonstrations of h-BN memristors focus on single isolated device switching properties and lack attention to fundamental machine learning functions. This paper demonstrates the hardware implementation of dot product operations, a basic analog function ubiquitous in machine learning, using h-BN memristor arrays. Moreover, we demonstrate the hardware implementation of a linear regression algorithm on h-BN memristor arrays.

AbstractSome marine organisms can resist to aqueous tidal environments and adhere tightly on wet surface. This behavior has raised increasing attention for potential applications in medicine, biomaterials, and tissue engineering. In mussels, adhesive forces to the rock are the resultant of proteinic fibrous formations called byssus. We present the solution structure of Pvfp-5β, one of the three byssal plaque proteins secreted by the Asian green mussel Perna viridis, and the component responsible for initiating interactions with the substrate. We demonstrate that Pvfp-5β has a stably folded structure in agreement with the presence in the sequence of two EGF motifs. The structure is highly rigid except for a few residues affected by slow local motions in the µs-ms time scale, and differs from the model calculated by artificial intelligence methods for the relative orientation of the EGF modules, which is something where computational methods still underperform. We also show that Pvfp-5β is able to coacervate even with no DOPA modification, giving thus insights both for understanding the adhesion mechanism of adhesive mussel proteins, and developing of biomaterials.

AbstractSARS-CoV-2 infection remains spread worldwide and requires a better understanding of virus-host interactions. Here, we analyzed biochemical modifications due to SARS-CoV-2 infection in cells by confocal Raman microscopy. Obtained results were compared with the infection with another RNA virus, the measles virus. Our results have demonstrated a virus-specific Raman molecular signature, reflecting intracellular modification during each infection. Advanced data analysis has been used to distinguish non-infected versus infected cells for two RNA viruses. Further, classification between non-infected and SARS-CoV-2 and measles virus-infected cells yielded an accuracy of 98.9 and 97.2 respectively, with a significant increase of the essential amino-acid tryptophan in SARS-CoV-2-infected cells. These results present proof of concept for the application of Raman spectroscopy to study virus-host interaction and to identify factors that contribute to the efficient SARS-CoV-2 infection and may thus provide novel insights on viral pathogenesis, targets of therapeutic intervention and development of new COVID-19 biomarkers.
Metamorphic densification can account for the missing felsic crust of the Greater Indian continent
Authors: Wang Yang , Zhang Lifei , Li Zhong-Hai 
Published: July 2022

AbstractThe long-duration, fast convergence, and imbalance of crustal mass in the India-Asia collisional system challenge the classical rules of continental dynamics. Here, we calculate the mass deficit of felsic crust in Greater India indicating ~20–47% of the felsic crust is missing during collision. Phase equilibria modeling and density calculations demonstrate the pressure-temperature-dependent density of felsic crust is denser than the surrounding mantle at P > 7–8 GPa. Integrated petrological-thermo-mechanical models and analytical studies of the slab-pull forces confirm the Greater Indian continent with its felsic crust can subduct spontaneously under its own negative buoyancy when it is dragged to >170 km by the preceding oceanic slab. The great slab-pull force, induced by the negative buoyancy of subducted crust below 170 km, not only contributes to the long-lasting fast convergence between India and Asia but also explains the crustal mass imbalance during the Himalayan orogeny.
