Do Female Politicians Lead to Better Learning Outcomes?
Authors: Priyanka Sadia 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Despite progress towards universal primary education, children in India lag in age and grade-appropriate learning competencies. This paper studies the effect of women’s political leadership in state legislatures on primary school-aged children’s learning outcomes. I use close elections won by women against men as an instrument for the election of a female politician and find significant gains in math and reading proficiency in children 8–11. Using a rich set of school and household-level data, I evaluate the impact on public and household investments. There is an increased likelihood of public schools receiving grants and inputs beneficial for learning. Further, female politicians lead households to exhibit more confidence in the ability of public schools to provide a better education. Consistent with this perception change, there are reduced time allocation and spending on supplementary household resources. The net positive effect suggests the policy effect outweighs the crowding out of private resources.
Sovereign Debt Crisis, Fiscal Consolidation, and Active Central Bankers in a Monetary Union
Authors: Canofari Paolo , Di Bartolomeo Giovanni , Messori Marcello 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
This paper examines the impact of exogenous shocks on sovereign debts in an incomplete monetary union. We assume that financial stability is a public good that sovereign debt shocks can undermine in fragile (peripheral) members. Our model shows that, unlike the common misconception, active monetary policies do not induce the peripheral government to relax its fiscal constraints; on the contrary, these policies tend to incentivize fiscal discipline by reducing the cost of balance consolidation. Active monetary policies, in fact, partially reallocate the stabilization costs from the periphery to the core of the union, preserving the common good and facilitating fiscal discipline in the periphery.
A numerical study of anomalous electro-diffusion cells in cable sense with a non-singular kernel

Published: September 2022

Abstract
The time-fractional cable model is solved using an extended cubic B-spline (ECBS) collocation strategy. The B-spline function was used for space partitioning, while the Caputo-Fabrizio (CF) was used for temporal discretization. The finite difference technique was used to discretize the CF operator. For the first time in cable modeling, the CF operator has been used. In terms of time, the convergence of order

. An ECBS collocation approach is investigated by numerical example at different values, and comparisons with published work are made. The numerical results show that the scheme performed well, and the graphical representations show that the results are very close to exact values. The Von Neumann technique is applied to investigate the stability of the proposed scheme.
Polygenic risk scores in epilepsy
Authors: Heyne Henrike O. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
An epilepsy diagnosis has large consequences for an individual but is often difficult to make in clinical practice. Novel biomarkers are thus greatly needed. Here, we give an overview of how thousands of common genetic factors that increase the risk for epilepsy can be summarized as epilepsy polygenic risk scores (PRS). We discuss the current state of research on how epilepsy PRS can serve as a biomarker for the risk for epilepsy. The high heritability of common forms of epilepsy, particularly genetic generalized epilepsy, indicates a promising potential for epilepsy PRS in diagnosis and risk prediction. Small sample sizes and low ancestral diversity of current epilepsy genome-wide association studies show, however, a need for larger and more diverse studies before epilepsy PRS could be properly implemented in the clinic.
The distributed nociceptive system: a novel framework for understanding pain
Authors: Coghill Robert C. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Our current understanding of central nervous system mechanisms supporting the experience of pain remains remarkably limited and produces substantial challenges when seeking to better diagnose and treat chronic pain. A new conceptual framework – The Distributed Nociceptive System – emphasizes system-level aspects of nociceptive processing by incorporating population coding and distributed process. The Distributed Nociceptive System provides a structure for understanding complex spatial aspects of chronic pain and provides a clear rationale for the further development of multi-disciplinary treatments for chronic pain.
Crack Initiation and Propagation of Embedded Three-Dimensional Parallel Cracks in Transparent Rock-Like Material
Authors: Jia Peng , Ji Wanmin , Qian Yijin , Zhang Yabing 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
In order to understand the initiation and propagation of three-dimensional (3D) embedded parallel cracks in brittle rock under uniaxial and biaxial compression, a preparation method of a transparent rock-like material was proposed in order to observe the propagation process of cracks in brittle rock. Uniaxial and biaxial compression tests were carried out on the transparent rock-like samples containing two embedded 3D parallel cracks. Four types of crack propagation modes were observed: wing crack, petaloid crack, flat-wing crack, and ring-like crack. It is also found that the direction of lateral pressure relative to the strike of the embedded crack has a significant effect on the propagation direction of new generated cracks: a lateral pressure parallel to the strike of the embedded cracks promotes crack propagation in the direction of the maximum principal stress; on the other hand, a lateral pressure normal to the strike of the embedded cracks promotes cracks propagation around the embedded crack at an angle of 30°–60°, forming ring-like cracks, which is similar to the zonal disintegration phenomenon monitored around deep underground excavations.

Abstract

Objective
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of weekly PEGylated-recombinant human growth hormone (PEG-rhGH) in children with idiopathic short stature (ISS) in China.

Design and methods
This was a multicenter, phase II study in which all subjects were randomized 1:1:1 to weekly s.c. injections of PEG-rhGH 0.1 (low-dose (LD) group) or 0.2 mg/kg/week (high-dose (HD) group) or control for 52 weeks. The primary end point was change (Δ) in height s.d. score (HT-SDS) from baseline to week 52. Secondary end points were height velocity (HV), bone maturity, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) SDS, and IGF-1/insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) molar ratio.

Results
A total of 360 children with ISS were recruited in the study (n = 120 in each group). At week 52, ΔHT-SDS was 0.56 ± 0.26, 0.98 ± 0.35, and 0.20 ± 0.26 in the LD, HD, and control groups, respectively (within-group P &lt; 0.0001; intergroup P &lt; 0.0001). Statistically significant values of ΔHV, IGF-1, IGF-1/IGFBP-3 ratio, and IGF-1 SDS at week 52 from baseline were observed in both treatment groups (P &lt; 0.0001). There were clear dose-dependent responses for all auxological variables. PEG-rhGH was well tolerated throughout the treatment period with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) reported in 86.5%, 84.6%, and 91.3% of children in the HD, LD, and control groups, respectively. The incidence of TEAEs was similar in all treatment groups despite the difference in doses. A total of 27 (8.7%) children experienced drug-related TEAEs.

Conclusion
Fifty-two-week treatment with PEG-rhGH 0.1 or 0.2 mg/kg/week achieved significant improvement in HT-SDS and other growth-related variables, including HV, IGF-1 SDS, and IGF-1/IGFBP-3 ratio, in a dose-dependent manner. Both doses were well tolerated with similar safety profiles.
Mujeres peligrosas y mujeres en peligro desde los Anales de Biotipología, Eugenesia y Medicina Social, Buenos Aires (Argentina), 1933-1943
Authors: Dovio Mariana-Ángela 
Published: September 2022

La preocupación médica y política por la baja tasa de natalidad y los peligros que implicaba la falta de contención económica y social de mujeres, en especial de las solteras, madres recientes o futuras madres, así como el saneamiento de costumbres consideradas peligrosas, como la prostitución, apareció imbricada a discursos de corte eugenésico hacia 1930 en Buenos Aires. Los Anales de Biotipología, Eugenesia y Medicina Social constituyeron uno de los más importantes reservorios sobre ideas eugenésicas, que tuvo la participación simultánea de académicos y técnicos de la medicina entre 1933 y 1943. Desde una perspectiva que concibe al discurso como práctica social estudiaremos cómo se elaboró una singular noción de mujeres consideradas en peligro y mujeres estimadas peligrosas desde las que se incentivó un ideal maternal encontrando un soporte principal en el cuidado y descripción del cuerpo. Mientras que para las mujeres consideradas peligrosas se usaron referencias biotipológicas y endocrinológicas, que eran resultado de elaboraciones académicas, para las estimadas en peligro aparecieron prácticas médicas y sociales llevadas a cabo en servicios maternales, que pulsaron por la integración de la eugenesia al campo sanitario a través de la educación femenina y controles pre-nupciales, entre otros.

Published: September 2022

Abstract
The financial industry has undergone several changes in recent years. One of these changes is the emergence of financial technology (FinTech) companies that are radically transforming the industry, posing a significant challenge to traditional commercial banks. In this study, we examined the responses of the Hungarian banks to the emergence of innovative FinTech startups and explored the benefits and barriers of the FinTech accelerator programs launched by banks. We conducted 27 semi-structured interviews with top executives of banks, FinTech startups and scaleups, investors and regulators to identify the potential benefits and barriers during the cooperation between banks and FinTechs. The most important results of our research show that during the partnership, several advantages can be gained by both parties. Still, the realization of these benefits is significantly hindered by the excessive exploitation focus of banks. Ambidextrous internal champions or suppliers of the banks are needed for successful cooperation between FinTechs and banks.
NKRI Bersyariah: Praktik Spasial, Representasi Ruang, Ruang Representasional

Published: September 2022

An alternative ideology by realizing “NKRI Bersyari’ah” which was introduced by the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) by M. Rizieq Syihab did not come from space or emerge suddenly without a cause, but there is a historical continuation. researchers use triadic concepts such as spatial practice, representations of space, representational spaces assisted by Pierre Bourdieu's habitus, fields, and distinction as a theoretical analysis. Based on the focus of the explanation and description above, the research studied wants to operate the discussion by asking the question, Why is the Ideology of “NKRI Bersyari’ah” able to be formed and endured? The results of the analysis in this study are that the representational space of the “NKRI Bersyari’ah” departs from the history of the NKRI and was strengthened by the Presidential Decree of July 15, 1959, on the 5th Alenia, resulting in long debates from groups who fought for Indonesia as an Islamic state in the “constitutional jihad” node and the stronghold the representatives who fought for an agreement state, namely the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI), were not present suddenly, but rather there was a long logic in the dialectics of the space debate.
Ideologi alternatif dengan mewujudkan “NKRI Bersyariah” yang di perkenalkan oleh Front Pembela Islam (FPI) oleh M. Rizieq Syihab tidak hadir dari ruang yang kosong atau muncul tiba-tiba tanpa sebab, melainkan ada persambungan sejarah. Peneliti mencoba untuk mengambarkannya dengan menggunakan konsep triadik seperti; spasial practice, representations of space, representational spaces yang dibantu oleh habitus, field, dan distintion Pierre Bourdieu sebagai analisis teoretik. Berdasarkan fokus penjelasan dan uraian di atas, maka penelitian yang dikaji ingin mengoperasikan pembahasannya dengan mengajukan pertanyaan, Mengapa Ideologi “NKRI Bersyariah” dapat terbentuk dan bertahan ?. Hasil analisis dalam penelitian ini bahwa ruang representasional “NKRI Bersyariah” berangkat dari sejarah berdirinya NKRI dan diperkokoh oleh Dekrit Presiden 15 Juli 1959 pada alenia ke-5, sehingga perdebatan panjang dari kelompok yang memperjuangkan Indonesia sebagai negara Islam dalam simpul “jihad konstitusional” dan kubu perwakilan yang memperjuangkan negara kesepakatan yaitu Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia (NKRI) tidak hadir secara tiba-tiba, melainkan ada logika panjang dalam dialektika perdebatan ruang.
Keadilan Hukum Dalam Penyelesaian Sengketa Lingkungan Hidup di Indonesia
Authors: Mubarok Nafi 
Published: September 2022

Jonathan Bate stated that the natural conditions were very hazardous at the beginning of the third millennium due to various air pollution from massive industrialization activities, which cause global warming and as a sign of the earth's destruction. One of the juridical aspects related to environmental pollution and destruction is the scarce availability of evidence in dispute resolution. It gives rise to the question of whether the environmental conflict resolution model contained in the UU-PPLH has fulfilled the concept of legal justice. After analyzing the dispure resolution model by John Rawls's theory of justice, it is shown that the settlement of environmental disputes regulated in UU-PPLH has met the criteria of legal justice. It can be seen in several ways, including (1) there are many alternatives in environmental dispute resolution; (2) entrepreneurs or companies may be subject to liability for their economic activities; (3) there is protection for the weak party by implementing a reverse proof system in the settlement of environmental disputes; and (4) there is a recognition of natural or environmental rights, which give rise to the possibility of legal standing.

Jonathan Bate menyatakan bahwa pada awal milenium tiga ini kondisi alam sangatlah kritis yang disebabkan oleh berbagai pencemaran udara dari aktifitas industrialisasi yang bersifat massif, dimana pada ujungnya berdampak pada “pemanasan global (global warming)”, sebagai pertanda kehancuran bumi. Di sisi lain, salah satu aspek yuridis ketika terjadi pencemaran dan perusakan lingkungan adalah terkait dengan penyelesaian sengketa, yang dimana problem utamanya adalah berhubungan dengan pembuktian yang masih dianggap sulit. Dari sinilah akan melahirkan pertanyaan adalah apakah model penyelesaian sengketa lingkungan yang terdapat dalam UU-PPLH sudah memenuhi konsep keadilan hukum. Setelah dilakukan analisa dengan menggunakan teori keadilan John Rawls, maka penyelesaian sengketa lingkungan sebagaimana diatur dalam UU-PPLH sudah memenuhi kriteria-kriteria keadilan hukum. Hal ini bisa dilihat dalam beberapa hal, antara lain: (1) tedapat banyak alternatif dalam “penyelesaian sengketa lingkungan hidup”; (2) terhadap para pengusaha atau perusahaan bisa dikenakan “tanggung jawab” atas kegiatan ekonomi yang dilakukannya; (3) terdapat perlindungan kepada “pihak yang lemah”, dengan diberlakukannya “sistem pembuktian terbalik” dalam penyelesaian sengketa lingkungan; dan (4) terdapat pengakuan atas hak alam atau hak lingkungan hidup, dengan adanya kemungkinan legal standing.
How financial information about joint ventures is being disclosed and processed by the market
Authors: Sarquis Raquel Wille , De Fátima Santana Verônica , Dos Santos Ariovaldo 
Published: September 2022

Objective: This research aims to evaluate how the joint ventures’ financial information is being disclosed in the notes to the joint venturer’s financial statements and how this disclosed information is being processed by the market, exploring the mediating effect of investors’ level of sophistication.
Methods: Using a sample of 1,858 financial statements from 551 firms from 26 countries, we hand collected the financial information of interests in joint ventures from the notes to the financial statements. Using a descriptive analysis, we first analyzed how firms are disclosing this information. Following, using a value relevance model, we evaluated whether this information is incorporated into stock prices.
Results: We show that IFRS 11 adoption and the elimination of proportionate consolidation resulted in a loss of information given that firms are not disclosing in the notes the financial information of their joint ventures as required by IFRS 12, and, even for those firms that are disclosing (57%), this information is only absorbed by more sophisticated investors.
Contributions: This research contributes not only to the previous literature (joint ventures’ accounting treatment, disclosure compliance and recognition versus disclosure), but also to the IASB during the Post-Implementation Review (PIR) of IFRS 11/12 and the Disclosure Initiative.
