The impact of large-scale sports events on national identity: a structural equation model based on the residents' perspective by Jing Wang, Zhiyi He, Yijuan Lu

“…The study takes the Hangzhou Asian Games as an opportunity to investigate the influence of such events on national identity and the underlying factors.MethodsThe study takes the impact of residents' involvement in the Asian Games on their national identity as the research object, constructs a theoretical model with subjective well-being and city image as the mediator variables, randomly selects 1,096 residents by questionnaire survey, and analyzes their interrelationships as well as deeper influencing factors by using structural equation modeling and bootstrap.ResultsThe results show that the involvement of Hangzhou residents in the Asian Games has a significant positive impact on national identity, subjective well-being and city image (Estimate = 0.237/0.287/0.3). …”

Integrating electronic health records and GWAS summary statistics to predict the progression of autoimmune diseases from preclinical stages by Chen Wang, Havell Markus, Avantika R. Diwadkar, Chachrit Khunsriraksakul, Laura Carrel, Bingshan Li, Xue Zhong, Xingyan Wang, Xiaowei Zhan, Galen T. Foulke, Nancy J. Olsen, Dajiang J. Liu, Bibo Jiang

“…We derive PRS for the progression from preclinical rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus in the BioVU biobank and validate them in All of Us. For both diseases, GPS achieves the highest prediction $${R}^{2}$$ R 2 and the resulting PRS yields the strongest correlation with progression prevalence.…”

A New Look at the Victorian ‘Criminal Classes’: A View from the Archives by Philippe Chassaigne

“…In particular, interpreting the adoption of repressive legislation in the wake of the 1860s ‘moral panics’ (1863 Garotters’ Act, 1864 Penal Servitude Act, 1869 and 1871 Habitual Criminals Acts) as a means for the ruling middle classes of comforting and legitimising their political and social hegemony by labelling certain inferior social groups as a ‘criminal class’ (or ‘underclass’, or ‘residuum’) and making them the target of police and justice repression, has proved to be a particularly popular and enduring line of thought (see Jennifer Davis et alii). …”
