The Palestinians, Israel, and BDS
Authors: Lustick Ian S. , Shils Nathaniel 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
Israel and the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement (BDS) have been in conflict within one another for nearly two decades. In this article we compare trajectories of Palestinian-led BDS mobilization and Israeli-led counter-mobilization by deploying two theoretical perspectives, a rationalist, strategic learning model and a political competition model. We find that the difference in balance of power on each side between state and civil society led to strategic convergence by Israel in its counter-BDS efforts but not (yet at any rate) on the Palestinian side. We locate BDS as an example of a transnational boycott movement and identify patterns in its conflict with Israel observed in association with other such movements. Our analysis leads to an explanation of why both sides see the battles between them taking place in the United States and Europe as particularly crucial.

Abstract
This article focuses on the changing cultural, social, and ideological characteristics of the central Sephardi Rabban Yochanan Ben-Zakai synagogue in Jerusalem, as a lens reflecting social and ideological processes of the local Sephardi community during the first half of the twentieth century. These included the community's attempts to consolidate its cultural uniqueness and civic identity vis-à-vis the surrounding and evolving spirits—within the Jewish community and outside it; its struggles with the local Ashkenazi community over historical and legal hegemony; its changing and evolving attitude toward the Ottoman and British Empires; and its gradual yet distinct adoption of the Jewish national framework. The article is based on an in-depth study of the archives of the Sephardi Commission (Va'ad Ha'eda HaSepharadit) in Jerusalem, as well as literary and scholarly sources and the local Jewish press of the time.

Published: December 2022

İçsel büyüme teorileri öncesi büyüme teorileri, şirketlerin tam rekabet koşullarında çalıştıklarından dolayı teknoloji geliştirmeye ayıracak kaynaklarının kalmadığını varsaymaktadır. İçsel büyüme teoremlerinde teknolojik gelişmenin büyümenin motoru olduğuna dair bir düşünce birliği olmakla birlikte; Lucas (1988)’ın “Beşeri Sermayeye Dayalı İçsel Büyüme Modeli”, teknolojik ilerlemeyi ve ekonomik büyümeyi beşeri sermaye ile açıklamaktadır. Ampirik çalışmaların önemli bir kısmında beşeri sermayenin ekonomik büyüme üzerine etkisinin pozitif olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Ancak beşeri sermayedeki artışların ekonomik büyüme üzerine etkisinin olmadığı biçiminde sonuçlarda mevcuttur. 2008 küresel krizini takiben ortaya çıkan iktisadi büyümedeki istikrarsızlıklar günümüzde de sürmektedir. Bu durumdan hareketle Kırılgan Beşli ülkelerinde beşeri sermayenin ekonomik büyüme üzerindeki etkisinin belirlenmesi çok önemlidir.
Çalışmada, Kırılgan Beşli ekonomileri açısından 1987-2019 yılları arasında beşeri sermayenin iktisadi büyüme üzerine etkisi panel eşbütünleşme analiziyle tahmin edilmiştir. Analizler sonucu elde edilen bulgular, Kırılgan Beşli ekonomileri grubunda beşeri sermayenin ekonomik büyüme üzerine etkisinin pozitif olduğu yönündedir. Bu kapsamda söz konusu ülkelerin iktisadi büyümelerini yükseltmesinde beşeri sermayenin önemli bir rolü bulunmaktadır.

Maternal mortality in Indonesia is still dominated by bleeding, infection and hypertension. More than 25% of maternal deaths in Indonesia are due to hypertension. In Central Java Province, 32.97% of hypertension was ranked first as a case of maternal death. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of giving Tomato juice with Ambon banana to reduce blood pressure in pregnant women with hypertension. The research was conducted using an experimental research method, with a pretest-posttest control group design. The study population was all pregnant women with hypertension in the working area of the Semarang District Health Office as many as 68 pregnant women. The number of samples was 34 people for the treatment and control groups. The sampling technique used consecutive sampling. The research instrument used was a digital sphygmomanometer and a checklist. The results showed that the Paired t-test obtained p value 0.05, indicating that there was an effect of lowering blood pressure before and after being given tomato and banana juice for 7 days. The results of the Independent t-test showed that the difference in the average decrease in systolic blood pressure in the treatment group was more significant by 11.00 mmHg than in the control group by 4.61 mmHg and the average decrease in diastolic blood pressure in the treatment group was also more significant, namely equal to 6.08 mmHg compared to the control group at 4.31 mmHg. The result of p value difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure is 0.001 and 0.007, which means Ha is accepted. Giving tomato juice is more effective in lowering blood pressure than giving Ambon banana. It is hoped that health workers will disseminate information to the public, especially pregnant women, to consume tomato juice as an effort to lower blood pressure.

The article considers the development of a heavy-class robotic ground combat system based on the BTR-4E armored personnel carrier.
Analysis of samples the heavy class combat robotic ground complexes showed that they can be developed on the basis of serial crewed military vehicles HMMWV (AM General), M-ATV (Oshkosh), BMP-3 (Russia), T-72 (Russia), M113 (Israel), Patria AMV (Finland) or create a new design MDARS (AM General), Black Knight (BAE Systems), "Uran-9" (Russia), TYPE-X (Milrem Robotics). They are made on a tracked or wheeled platform. What unites this class of robotic ground combat systems is a remotely controlled combat module with a 25-30 mm cannon, anti-tank guided missiles, a machine gun and a grenade launcher, which can be controlled from a distance.
A comparative analysis of the tactical and technical characteristics the BTR-4E armored personnel carrier with military vehicles with a 30 mm cannon in service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine has been performed. As a result, the choice of BTR-4E armored personnel carrier as the basic crew unit for the construction of a heavy class robotic ground combat system has been substantiated.
The analysis of the design of control drives of the power plant, transmission, braking system, steering system and combat module installed on the BTR-4E armored personnel carrier was carried out in terms of the possibility of implementing remote control of movement and fire.
The structure of a combat ground robotic complex based on the BTR-4E armored personnel carrier with different variants of remote control panels, means of establishing communication channels and construction of a remote control station is proposed.
For example, the driver's remote control panel may be designed on the basis a tablet or on the basis a simulator for full simulation of control commands. Remote controls for the commander and gunner can be designed on the basis of regular controls and be similar to them for quick training of the crew to work.
Communication between remote control units and the controlled armored personnel carrier can be arranged using ultrashort-wave radios or via the 4G, 5G mobile network.
The remote control point can also be developed on the basis a BTR-4E armored personnel carrier, a military vehicle or deployed on the ground. It depends on the concept of application of the heavy class combat ground robotic complex.

Published: December 2022

Using the method of mathematical modeling, as well as the laws of thermodynamics, analytical dependences were obtained to study the stress-strain state of spherical tanks depending on the different surface temperatures of this structure. The calculations performed showed that the radial stresses are insignificant compared to the tangential ones, which act on tension. The greatest absolute value of tangential stresses is taken on the inner surface of the spherical structure, acting in tension and on the outer surface – compression. The investigation results are presented graphically.
Explosive and toxic substances are a major component of military bases stored in special-purposes tanks, namely spherical tanks, which are one of the most common. As a result of sabotage or arson of these tanks, there is a leak of toxic substances and the formation of steam and gas clouds which can lead to an explosion, significant thermal radiation, and the possibility of infection of military equipment, territory, and various objects in the vicinity of the accident, including personnel, which makes it impossible to conduct hostilities for a long time.
Analyzing the experience of accidents at similar facilities, several types of accidents of spherical gasholders during their depressurization are possible, namely: explosion, flare, fireball, fire of toxic substances and the presence of a saturated explosive cloud. Analyzing the extraordinary accidents in the places of storage of toxic, explosive substances and fuels and lubricants, which are related to the violation of their storage and exploitation, allows us to conclude that this is a global problem of today. Therefore, to prevent explosion and fire hazards, the strength of engineering structures that contain toxic and explosive substances are quite high requirements.
One of the main tasks in the general problem of explosion and fire safety is the ability to timely warn or prevent accidental explosions on building, military or explosion-proof structures, as well as personnel nearby. Therefore, the impact of temperature on special-purpose tanks due to sabotage, natural factors and abnormal cases on the strength characteristics of engineering structures of this type are important, both theoretically and practically.

Published: December 2022

This study aimed to assess the validity and reliability of the three-dimensional joint kinematic outcomes obtained by the inertial measurement units (IMUs) for runners with rearfoot strike pattern (RFS) and non-rearfoot strike pattern (NRFS). The IMUs system and optical motion capture system were used to simultaneous collect 3D kinematic of lower extremity joint data from participants running at 12 km/h. The joint angle waveforms showed a high correlation between the two systems after the offset correction in the sagittal plane (NRFS: coefficient of multiple correlation (CMC) = 0.924–0.968, root mean square error (RMSE) = 4.6°–13.7°; RFS: CMC = 0.930–0.965, RMSE = 3.1°–7.7°), but revealed high variability in the frontal and transverse planes (NRFS: CMC = 0.924–0.968, RMSE = 4.6°–13.7°; RFS: CMC = 0.930–0.965, RMSE = 3.1°–7.7°). The between-rater and between-day reliability were shown to be very good to excellent in the sagittal plane (between-rater: NRFS: CMC = 0.967–0.975, RMSE = 1.9°–2.9°, RFS: CMC = 0.922–0.989, RMSE = 1.0°–2.5°; between-day: NRFS: CMC = 0.950–0.978, RMSE = 1.6°–2.7°, RFS: CMC = 0.920–0.989, RMSE = 1.7°–2.2°), whereas the reliability was weak to very good (between-rater: NRFS: CMC = 0.480–0.947, RMSE = 1.1°–2.7°, RFS: CMC = 0.646–0.873, RMSE = 0.7°–2.4°; between-day: NRFS: CMC = 0.666–0.867, RMSE = 0.7°–2.8°, RFS: CMC = 0.321–0.805, RMSE = 0.9°–5.0°) in the frontal and transverse planes across all joints in both types of runners. The IMUs system was a feasible tool for measuring lower extremity joint kinematics in the sagittal plane during running, especially for RFS runners. However, the joint kinematics data in frontal and transverse planes derived by the IMUs system need to be used with caution.

Published: December 2022

Pristine lanthanum nickelate (LaNiO3), silver phosphate (Ag3PO4) and perovskite lanthanum nickelate silver phosphate composites (LaNiO3/Ag3PO4) were prepared using the facile hydrothermal method. Three composites were synthesized by varying the percentage of LaNiO3 in Ag3PO4. The physical properties of as-prepared samples were studied by powder X-ray diffraction (pXRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX). Among all synthesized photocatalysts, 5%LaNiO3/Ag3PO4 composite has been proved to be an excellent visible light photocatalyst for the degradation of dyes i.e., rhodamine B (RhB) and methyl orange (MO). The photocatalytic activity and stability of Ag3PO4 were also enhanced by introducing LaNiO3 in Ag3PO4 heterojunction formation. Complete photodegradation of 50 mg/L of RhB and MO solutions using 25 mg of 5%LaNiO3/Ag3PO4 photocatalyst was observed in just 20 min. Photodegradation of RhB and MO using 5%LaNiO3/Ag3PO4 catalyst follows first-order kinetics with rate constants of 0.213 and 0.1804 min−1, respectively. Perovskite LaNiO3/Ag3PO4 photocatalyst showed the highest stability up to five cycles. The photodegradation mechanism suggests that the holes (h+) and superoxide anion radicals O2 •− plays a main role in the dye degradation of RhB and MO.
Simplified acute physiology score III is excellent for predicting in-hospital mortality in coronary care unit patients with acute myocardial infarction: A retrospective study
Authors: Zheng Xiaoyu , Hu Tianyang , Liu Tingrong , Wang Wei 
Published: December 2022

BackgroundCoronary care unit (CCU) patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) lack effective predictors of in-hospital mortality. This study aimed to investigate the performance of four scoring systems in predicting in-hospital mortality in CCU patients with AMI.MethodsThe baseline data, the logistic organ dysfunction system (LODS), the Oxford acute severity of illness score (OASIS), the simplified acute physiology score II (SAPS II), and the simplified acute physiology score III (SAPS III) scores of the patients were extracted from the fourth edition of the Medical Information Mart for Critical Care (MIMIC-IV) database. Independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality were identified by regression analysis. We performed receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and compared the area under the curve (AUC) to clarify the predictive value of the four scoring systems. Meanwhile, Kaplan–Meier curves and decision curve analysis (DCA) were performed to determine the optimal scoring system for predicting in-hospital mortality.ResultsA total of 1,098 patients were included. The SAPS III was an independent risk factor for predicting in-hospital mortality in CCU patients with AMI before and after the propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. The discrimination of in-hospital mortality by SAPS III was superior to that of LODS, OASIS, and SAPS II. The AUC of the SAPS III scoring system was the highest among the four scoring systems, at 0.901 (before PSM) and 0.736 (after PSM). Survival analysis showed that significantly more in-hospital mortality occurred in the high-score SAPS III group compared to the low-score SAPS III group before PSM (HR 7.636, P &lt; 0.001) and after PSM (HR 2.077, P = 0.005). The DCA curve of SAPS III had the greatest benefit score across the largest threshold range compared to the other three scoring systems.ConclusionThe SAPS III was an independent risk factor for predicting in-hospital mortality in CCU patients with AMI. The predictive value for in-hospital mortality with SAPS III is superior to that of LODS, OASIS, and SAPS II. The results of the DCA analysis suggest that SAPS III may provide a better clinical benefit for patients. We demonstrated that SAPS III is an excellent scoring system for predicting in-hospital mortality for CCU patients with AMI.

ObjectiveGPHB5 has been found to be associated with glucose and lipid metabolism in animal studies. However, the association of GPHB5 with IR and metabolic disorders remains unknown, and there is a lack of research in humans. Our aim in this study was to investigate the relationship between circulating GPHB5 and metabolic disorders in humans.MethodsBioinformatics analysis was performed to understand the relationship between GPHB5 and metabolic disorders. GPHB5 mRNA expression in mice and rats was determined using RT-qPCR. Circulating GPHB5 concentrations were measured with an ELISA kit. EHC and OGTT were performed in humans.ResultsBioinformatics analysis shows that GPHB5 is associated with metabolic disorders and PCOS. GPHB5 mRNA expression levels in the metabolic-related tissues of HFD-fed mice, db/db and ob/ob mice, and PCOS rats were significantly higher than those of WT mice or rats. In human studies, we find that circulating GPHB5 levels were significantly higher in women with IR and PCOS. GPHB5 levels were positively correlated with age, BMI, WHR, BP, FBG, 2 h-BG, FIns, 2 h-Ins, TC, LDL-C, HbA1c, and FFA, but negatively correlated with adiponectin. Furthermore, GPHB5 was positively correlated with DHEAS and FAI, while negatively correlated with SHBG, FSH, SHBG and FSH. The increased GPHB5 concentration was related to IR and PCOS. After the treatment of metformin, GLP-1RA (Lira), and TZDs, circulating GPHB5 levels were decreased.ConclusionsOur results reveal that circulating GPHB5 could be a biomarker and potential therapeutic target for IR and PCOS in women.
