‘It was no way to live, really’: uncovering the embodied harms of image-based sexual abuse on female victim-survivors in Singapore by Lim, Jia Ying

“…A qualitative thematic analysis on the experiences of 24 victim-survivors is conducted to illuminate five overarching types of harms of IBSA: (1) shame and self-condemnation; (2) loss of control over self-presentation; (3) siege mentality; (4) permanent scarring; and (5) ontological destruction. I further map out how and why virtual objects (such as intimate images) and actions (such as their non-consensual circulation) come to hurt victim-survivors' corporeal bodies in specific ways. …”

Superconducting resonator and Rydberg atom hybrid system in the strong coupling regime by Yu, Deshui, Landra, Alessandro, Valado, María Martínez, Hufnagel, Christoph, Kwek, Leong Chuan, Amico, Luigi, Dumke, Rainer

“…The atomic qubit is implemented by two eigenstates near an avoided-level crossing in the dc Stark map of a Rydberg atom. Varying the electrostatic field brings the atomic-qubit transition on or off resonance with respect to the microwave resonator, leading to a strong atom-resonator coupling with an extremely large cooperativity. …”

Comparison of diabetic and non-diabetic human leukocytic responses to different capsule types of klebsiella pneumoniae responsible for causing pyogenic liver abscess by Lee, I. Russel, Sng, Ethel, Lee, Kok-Onn, Molton, James S., Chan, Monica, Kalimuddin, Shirin, Izharuddin, Ezlyn, Lye, David C., Archuleta, Sophia, Gan, Yunn-Hwen

“…DNA and myeloperoxidase levels were elevated in the plasma of KLA patients compared to uninfected individuals indicating neutrophil activation, but diabetic status had no effect on these neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) biomarkers in both subject groups. Clinical hvKP isolates universally stimulated KLA patient neutrophils to produce NETs ex vivo, regardless of host diabetic status. …”

Combating Household Bankruptcy: Developing a New Integrated Financial Education Model for Malaysian (S/O 13585) by Sawandi, Norfaiezah, Abu Bakar, Abu Sufian, Shaari, Hasnah, Amran, Noor Afza, Saad, Ram Al Jaffri

“…Meanwhile, it is observed that main factors that lead to poor financial/debts management are lack of financial knowledge and skills, lack of discipline in managing or paying debts, poor self-control, inability or not afford to pay loans/debts as the amount of payments are too much as compared to amount of income earned as well as greed which cause someone to be trapped in financial scams such as ponzi scheme. Finally, the study has developed the new integrated, holistic financial education model, which has three vital elements, that aims to create a financial literate or savvy society who are competent and able to apply knowledge, as well as have the right attitude, skills, knowledge, and habits to make effective financial decisions and are able to avoid being the victims of financial fraud or scam.…”
