Published: February 2025

Objectives: The study aims to assess the organizational performance of the Iraqi banking industry using the residual income model. It seeks to analyze the impact of accounting values (book value, earnings per share, and dividends) on ordinary share prices and predict future stock prices.
 
Methods: The residual income model, which integrates accounting values through the clean surplus relation, was applied to the Iraqi commercial banking sector listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange. A sample of 10 banks was selected for analysis, covering the period from 2013 to 2023. The model was further used to forecast stock prices until 2030.
 
Results: The findings indicate that all sampled commercial banks suffer from declining regulatory performance, as evidenced by negative residual income values. This decline is attributed to the low current market values of these banks, which serve as a negative warning indicator for investors and shareholders. The market values of shares were found to be lower than their book values.
 
Conclusion: The study concludes that the Iraqi commercial banking sector faces significant challenges in maintaining positive regulatory performance. The negative residual income and lower market values compared to book values signal potential risks for investors, highlighting concerns about the financial stability and valuation of these banks in the market.

Introducción y Objetivo: El ejercicio y las hierbas antiobesidad pueden ser intervenciones eficaces para reducir la obesidad inducida por una dieta rica en grasas (HFD). Nuestro estudio examinó los efectos del ejercicio aeróbico (AE) y el ejercicio de fuerza (RE) en la expresión de FNDC5 e IL-6 en ratas hembra alimentadas con una HFD junto con un extracto de hierbas antiobesidad (AOHME).
Metodología: Cuarenta y dos ratas Wistar hembras jóvenes (12 semanas de edad) se distribuyeron aleatoriamente en siete grupos: (1) control alimentadas con dieta estándar (Con-ND), (2) control alimentadas con HFD (Con-HFD), (3) AE-HFD, (4) RE-HFD, (5) AOHME-HFD, (6) AE-AOHME-HFD y (7) RE-AOHME-HFD. Después de cuatro semanas con HFD para inducir obesidad (excepto Con-ND), las ratas fueron alimentadas con HFD (grupos 2-7) durante 4 semanas adicionales. AE consistió en correr en cinta y el RE en subir escaleras. Los ejercicios se realizaron 5 veces por semana. La suplementación (100 mg/kg, 1 hora post-ejercicio) se administró por sonda nasogástrica a AOHME y agua destilada como placebo a HFD. Las ratas fueron eutanasiadas (48h tras la última intervención) y el músculo sóleo extraído.
Resultados: HFD indujo un aumento significativo del peso corporal en comparación con Con-ND, AE-HFD, RE-HFD, AOHME-HFD, AE-AOHME-HFD y RE-AOHME-HFD. Los genes FNDC5 e IL-6 presentaron una expresión significativamente mayor en Con-ND y el resto de grupos HFD que en el grupo Con-HFD.
Conclusiones: La expresión de FNDC5 e IL-6, reprimida con la dieta rica en grasas, se recuperó con AE y RE sólo o en combinación con AOHME.

Performance of Ridge Regression, Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator, and Elastic Net in Overcoming Multicollinearity
Authors: Saputro Dewi Retno Sari , Wahyu Nugroho Lambang , Widyaningsih Yekti
Published: February 2025

Multicollinearity is a violation of assumptions in multiple linear regression analysis that can occur if there is a high correlation between the independent variables. Likewise, the variants of multiple linear regression models such as the Geographically Weighted Regression model (GWR). Multicollinearity causes parameter estimation using the Quadratic Method (QM) unstable and produces a large variance. On the other hand, what is expected in the estimation parameters is an estimate with a minimum variance, even though it is biased. Thus, one way to overcome multicollinearity can be to use biased estimators, such as Ridge Regression (RR), Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO), and Elastic Net (EN). In RR, the Least Square Method (LSM) coefficient is reduced to zero but it can’t select the independent variable. However, the parameter model obtained from the Ridge Regression is biased, and the variance of the resulting regression coefficients is relatively tiny. In addition, the RR is increasingly difficult to understand if a huge number of independent variables are used. Meanwhile, LASSO is a computational method that uses quadratic programming and can act out the RR principles and perform variable selection. The LASSO method became known after discovering the Least-Angle Regression (LARS) algorithm. The LASSO method can reduce the LSM coefficient to zero to perform variable selection. LASSO also has a weakness, so EN is used. In this article, the performance of the three methods is compared from the mathematical aspect. The performance of each is written as follows, RR is helpful for clustering effects, where collinear features can be selected together; LASSO is proper for feature selection when the dataset has features with poor predictive power and EN combines LASSO and RR, which has the potential to lead to simple and predictive models.

Utilizando um diagrama de Pareto é possível analisar os serviços que necessitam de melhorias e investigar as causas utilizando-se o Diagrama de Ishikawa. Portanto, o objetivo desta pesquisa foi abordar a qualidade dos serviços prestados por uma empresa metalúrgica segundo a percepção dos seus clientes. Das cinco dimensões analisadas, uma apresentou percepção maior que a expectativa, todavia, percebeu-se que o nível de exigência e expectativa dos clientes também foi elevado. Dos seis problemas de insatisfação levantados no questionário, dois deles correspondem a 77,5% do total de reclamações dos clientes, são estes: Opções de Pagamento e Pontualidade. Ao final da pesquisa, foram recomendadas melhorias pertinentes aos problemas destacados. Como analisado pelo estudo, a Gestão da Qualidade é de fundamental importância na gestão empresarial, permitindo analisar as expectativas dos clientes, redução de problemas e elevar a valorização dos colaboradores.
Review on characterization of deamidation in therapeutic proteins by mass spectrometric methods
Authors: Taraj Krenaida
Published: February 2025

Deamidation is a critical post-translational modification that influences the stability, structure, and function of therapeutic proteins, impacting their efficacy in clinical applications. This spontaneous process, primarily affecting asparagine (Asn) and glutamine (Gln) residues, leads to the formation of aspartic acid (Asp) and glutamic acid (Glu), respectively, and is influenced by environmental factors such as pH, temperature, and ionic strength. Understanding deamidation is essential, particularly in monoclonal antibody (mAb)-based therapies, where structural integrity determines therapeutic performance. Mass spectrometry (MS) has emerged as a powerful tool for deamidation analysis due to its sensitivity, accuracy, and ability to characterize complex protein modifications. Various MS approaches, including top-down, middle-down, and bottom-up methods, facilitate the identification and quantification of deamidation events. Additionally, reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC), often integrated with MS, supports therapeutic protein analysis but faces challenges such as peak broadening, secondary interactions, and protein denaturation. Recent advancements in proteomics and MS techniques continue to refine our understanding of deamidation, offering new insights into protein stability, aging-related modifications, and disease mechanisms. This review aims to provide a comprehensive perspective on deamidation studies, emphasizing its implications for biopharmaceuticals and therapeutic protein development.

Purpose: This study examines VR's suitability for language classes. Despite past research on virtual reality's instructional usefulness, nothing is known about its influence on language acquisition. This research examines VR's usefulness, benefits, and drawbacks in language training.
Materials and Methods: A comprehensive review of 26 2015–2018 scientific papers was c onducted. These papers were selected from 17 respected edtech and CAL magazines and conferences. The examination examined resources, learning settings, study time, advantages and drawbacks, and future research.
Findings: Virtual reality may boost language learning via engaging and immersive experiences, according to studies. Pros include increased engagement and contextual learning; drawbacks include pedagogical challenges and technology limits. The data also reveals aspects that require more study to optimise VR in language acquisition.
Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study's authors recommend further research on virtual reality and language learning. It suggests correcting technological and instructional concerns to improve implementation. To make virtual reality (VR) a feasible tool for language training, future research should improve VR tools, integrate them into curriculum, and measure long-term student learning.

Alloxan is widely used to induce diabetes in animal models because it selectively destroys pancreatic beta islets, which correlate with inverse change in the plasma concentration of insulin, resulting in beta cells necrosis. Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder which affects humans of all ages and has become epidemic in the last few years. Oxidative stress in DM can contribute to various abnormalities in the physiology of blood cells and liver impairment. The primary goal of this study is to investigate how diabetes affects blood parameters and liver function in an animal model, which contributes to managing various complications in diabetic patients. Twenty male Swiss albino mice were housed at research lab in pharmacology department, faculty of medicine, Benghazi. Mice were fasted for 48 hours and then classified into two groups; the first group did not receive any treatment while the second group received a single intraperitoneal injection of freshly prepared alloxan 200mg/kg dissolved in normal saline (PH 4.5) with a concentration of 1%. After one month, the blood samples were collected from all mice and analyzed. The main outcome is that induction of diabetes in albino mice result in elevated blood glucose level, weight loss, low RBC and WBC counts, elevated platelets count, and liver impairment. The findings of this study align with previous research investigating that diabetes can result in anemia, immune suppression, and liver damage. However, translational explanations must account for species-specific responses and model limitations.
Consideraţii teoretice privind executarea hotărârilor CtEDO
Authors: MODREANU Sorin-Claude
Published: February 2025

As a member of the Council of Europe, Romania accepts and submits to the jurisdiction of the European Court of Human Rights. The judgments of the Court regarding the breach of rights established by the Convention or by the Additional Protocls by the Romanian State are mandatory, which determins the necessity to adopt general and individual measures in order to ensure the compliance with conventional standards. Therefore, the concrete impact that the jurisprudence of the Court has on national law is measured by the way in which the enforcement of the Court`s judgements is carried out. In the absence of concrete and functional instruments which possess the ability to ensure expeditious and conform enforcement of the Court`s judgements, the entirety of the conventional system would be deprived of efficiency. Thus, initially, through this research paper, the theoretical elements regarding the enforcement mechanism of the judgements of the Court in Romania, under the monitoring of the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe, will be presented and analyzed. Secondarily, concrete and representative examples for this stage of a procedure in front of the Court will be laid out.
