Determinants of Inflation in Vietnam: A VECM Approach
Authors: Tran Thi Bich Ngoc , Pham Hoang Cam Huong
Published: October 2020

This paper aims to examine the main determinants of inflation in Vietnam during the period from 2002Q1 to 2013Q2. The cointegration theory and the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) approach are used to examine the impact of domestic credit, interest rate, budget deficit, and crude oil prices on inflation in both long and short terms. The results show that while there are long-term relations among inflation and the others, such factors as oil prices, domestic credit, and interest rate, in the short run, have no impact on fluctuations of inflation. Particularly, the budget deficit itself actually has a short-run impact, but its level is fundamentally weak. The cause of the current inflation is mainly due to public's expectations of the inflation in the last period. Although the error correction, from the long-run relationship, has affected inflation in the short run, the coefficient is small and insignificant. In other words, it means that the speed of the adjustment is very low or near zero. This also implies that once the relationship among inflation, domestic credit, interest rate, budget deficit, and crude oil prices deviate from the long-term trend, it will take the economy a lot of time to return to the equilibrium state.
Monetary Policy and Liquidity of Vietnam’s Stock Market
Authors: Tran Thi Hai Ly
Published: October 2020

This study investigates the impact of monetary policy on liquidity of Vietnam’s stock market from September 2007 to November 2014. Time series of liquidity are determined by monthly liquidity data for 643 enterprises in the surveyed period. Two variables of the monetary policy, including growth in money supply and interbank rate, are employed in VAR model along with four different measures of market liquidity. The results show that unexpected variance in the two monetary policy variables has no significant impact on the market liquidity, which, in turn, may be improved by the positive shocks of market returns, inflation, and growth in industrial production. Market variance does produce certain effects, but discrepancies occur in the signs of various liquidity measures.

Toward Development of Mechanical Supporting Industry in Ho Chi Minh City: An Approach to Industry Structure and Its Determinants
Authors: Nguyen Trong Hoai , Huynh Thanh Dien
Published: October 2020

This study aims to address the current state of mechanical supporting industry in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) by approaching several factors affecting the industry for further solutions to its development in the coming years. Using both qualitative and quantitative methods, we find that: (i) the HCMC mechanical industry has yet to satisfy the demands for development of other economic industries as a consequence of its simple products and its failure to manufacture machine tools and equipment in automatic production lines; (ii) the industry is mostly composed of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), featuring mainly imported inputs, outdated technologies, and poor quality management, thus causing the output products in large part to merely serve domestic consumption and disabling them to engage in the global supply chain; and (iii) some principal reasons comprise limited access to credit, modern technology, market, and information as well as other constraints to production infrastructure and human resources.

Authors: Nguyen Thi Hong Vinh , Le Phan Thi Dieu Thao
Published: October 2020

This paper seeks to examine the effects of bank capital on profitability and credit risk of 30 Vietnam’s commercial banks from 2007 to 2014. Using the system generalized method of moments (GMM), the paper conducts several tests on the moral hazard and regulatory hypotheses on the relationships among bank capital, profitability, and credit risk. With no regard to other determinants, its results indicate that the effects are evident, i.e. bank risk is found to impact differently on bank returns, and it is also negatively associated with credit risk of commercial banks in Vietnam.
Impact of store personality on store loyalty: A study of specialty store chains in Vietnam
Authors: Nguyen Le Thai Hoa , Hoang Thi Phuong Thao
Published: October 2020

The purposes of this study are: (i) to develop store personality measurement scale tailor-made for household and electronics store chains in Vietnam, an Asian transitional economy; and (ii) to exam-ine the degree of influence of each store personality dimensions on store loyalty. The scale development is conducted in two stages: item generation and item purification. The new scale is applied to a data survey of 268 shoppers in Ho Chi Minh City (a metropolitan city in southern Vietnam) by systematic sampling. Multivariate data analysis techniques, such as exploratory factor analysis and struc-tural equation modeling, are used to analyze the data. The results reveal that store personality measurement scale is structured into four dimensions: reliability, sophistication, economy, and enthusi-asm with 22 items as observed variables and store personality im-pacts on loyalty behavior mediated by attitudinal loyalty. Particu-larly, these four dimensions are found to be correlated significantly with attitudinal loyalty but not with loyalty behavior except for economy—reliability and sophistication have positive impacts, whereas economy and enthusiasm negatively relate to attitudinal loyalty. The findings help retail managers with effective positioning strategy. This paper is the first to design the scale for store personali-ty and to explore the impact of each dimensions of store personality on attitudinal and behavioral loyalty in Vietnam and in the special-ty-store-chain context.
Monetary policy effect in an economy with heavily managed exchange rate
Authors: Bui Thanh Trung
Published: October 2020

The primary objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of monetary policy on macroeconomic variables in Vietnam, which is a small, open, and developing economy with heavily managed ex-change rate. Monetary policy shock is identified by the sign re-striction methodology. Unlike previous studies, this paper identifies a monetary contraction by a combination of an increase in interest rates, a decrease in central bank credit, a drop in the stock of foreign exchange reserves, and a fall in broad money. The empirical results show that output and prices begin to reduce after a restrictive mone-tary shock in the medium term, suggesting the adverse effect of monetary policy in the short term and the necessity to improve the transparency of monetary setting. Meanwhile, exchange rates are unresponsive to a tightening decision, which is not a sign of puzzle but plausible when the nature of a peg regime is taken into account. Furthermore, foreign exchange policy causes inflation to rise since its effect is partially sterilized by changes in monetary policy instru-ments. Therefore, Vietnamese monetary authorities should consider a shift toward a more floating regime to achieve monetary inde-pendence or foster the development of financial markets in order to alleviate inflationary pressure caused by foreign exchange policy.

Pathological aggregation and accumulation of α-synuclein in neurons play a core role in Parkinson’s disease (PD) while its overexpression is a common PD model. Autophagy-lysosomal pathways are general intraneural mechanisms of protein clearance. Earlier a suppressed autophagy in the brain of young transgenic mice overexpressing the А53Т-mutant human α-synuclein (mut(PD)) was revealed. Previous studies have recognized that Cystatin C displays protective activity against neurodegeneration. This cysteine protease inhibitor attracts particular attention as a potential target for PD treatment related to autophagy modulation. Here we evaluated the mRNA levels of Cst3 encoding Cystatin C in different brain structures of 5 m.o. mut(PD) mice at standard conditions and after the chronic treatment with a neuroprotective agent, ceftriaxone (100 mg/kg, 36 days). The inflammatory markers, namely, microglial activation by IBA1 expression and mRNA levels of two chitinases genes (Chit1, Chia1), were also assessed but no significant difference was found between control and transgenic mice. Cst3 mRNA levels were significantly reduced in the striatum and amygdala in the transgenic PD model. Furthermore, this was associated with autophagy decline and might be added to early signs of synucleinopathy development. We first demonstrated the modulation of mRNA levels of Cst3 and autophagy marker Becn1 in the brain by ceftriaxone treatment. Taken together, the results support the potential of autophagy modulation through Cystatin C at early stages of PD-like pathology.
Like it! Maps as a Subject and a Springboard for discussion in social media
Authors: Nieścioruk Kamil
Published: October 2020

In the modern world of mass information being reduced to colourful images, maps have the chance to become a medium that transmits important information in an attractive format. Due to time pressure, many cartographic publications that have a short life span on the internet contain a lot of methodological errors. Viewers receive an image that is hard to interpret, incomplete or even incorrect. The author aims to summarize and classify the cartographic content of social media, while bearing methodology, the role of the cartographer and users’ reactions to that content in mind. The springboard to online discussion is mainly a map topic. Their design or methodology is of little interest in most cases. This may be due to insufficient knowledge of how forms (their correctness and quality) shape messages. Hence the role of the cartographer is important, what can be seen – among methodological remarks – as one of conclusions. It seems that map-makers are becoming more expert, and are guiding map lovers and amateur cartographers towards creating good, effective and elegant maps.
Ensuring safety for the Polish population as a task of the state on the example of the SARS-CoV-2
Authors: Misztal-Okońska Patrycja
Published: October 2020

Ensuring safety for its citizens is a basic task of each country. In the past this function was limited to providing defence in the armed conflicts, while nowadays modern, highly developed countries are obliged to ensure state of safety and protection to their citizens in each situation. Apart from the natural dangers, which constantly appear depending on the season and climate of a certain area, some changes occurring in the world cause a range of new hazards. They include terrorist attacks, technical failures connected with industry development, as well as new natural dangers appearing as a consequence of climate change caused by significant human interference. Moreover, human actions may be a reason of various catastrophes and accidents occurrence, which require fast and effective reaction of services responsible for the safety of state and citizens. In Poland the system appointed for this purpose is an emergency management system, which functions on the basis of the Act of April 26, 2007 on crisis management.
Mental disorders in people infected with the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 – literature review
Authors: Litwin Anna , Masiak Jolanta
Published: October 2020

In many patients with confirmed or suspected SARS-CoV-2 infection, psychopathological symptoms appeared in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. The pathogenesis of mental disorders emerging due to the COVID-19 pandemic may include biological and psychosocial factors. COVID-19 can cause symptoms such as insomnia, attention or concentration deficit, anxiety, memory, orientation and consciousness disorders. COVID-19 affects central nervous system functions, which may cause neuropsychological symptoms in some patients, such as dizziness, headaches and consciousness disorders. Psychiatrists must be aware of the side effects of using certain medications among patients with COVID-19. Administration of hydroxychloroquine, an anti-malarial drug, in some hospitalized patients with COVID-19 is associated with occurrence of psychopathological side effects, such as mood and anxiety disorders, insomnia and sometimes psychotic symptoms. The COVID-19 pandemic may adversely impact upon patients with already diagnosed mental disorders. Based on research conducted during present pandemic and past epidemics, it can be assumed that many of these patients will develop: anxiety and depressive disorders, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance use disorders.
Evaluation of IHC Ki-67 with Clinical Correlation in Psoriasis
Authors: Borade Sandhya , Belgaumkar Vasudha A. , Chavan Ravindranath B. , Bhatt Neelam , Deshmukh Nitika S.
Published: October 2020

Introduction. Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with hyperproliferation, abnormal differentiation and inflammatory infiltration in epidermis and dermis. Sometimes it is clinically and histopathologically challenging to distinguish psoriasis from other non-psoriatic psoriasiform dermatoses (NPPD) like eczema, pityriasis rosea, pityriasis rubra pilaris, and lichen simplex chronicus. Ki-67 is a non-histone nuclear protein complex that regulates the cell cycle and is the most widely used proliferation immunohistochemistry (IHC) marker. Its levels have been shown to be raised in psoriasis compared to normal skin.

Aim. To elucidate and compare expression of IHC Ki-67 in psoriasis and NPPD, correlate these levels with clinical variants and disease severity in psoriasis and to observe change in levels with demographic and psoriasis-related variables.

Material and Methods. Thirty patients, each with clinically diagnosed psoriasis (cases), and NPPD (controls) were enrolled. Biopsy was taken for histopathology and IHC Ki-67 immunohistochemistry. Statistical analysis was performed.

Results. We found a significantly higher expression of IHC Ki-67 in psoriasis as compared to all types of NPPD. The higher level of Ki-67 in pustular and erythrodermic psoriasis compared to plaque-type emphasizes the greater severity and activity of these forms. The Ki-67 expression was found to increase with increasing body surface area involvement and disease severity (PASI) in chronic plaque type. Pityriasis rubra pilaris had the highest Ki67 expression among NPPD group.

Conclusion. Ki-67 is a promising tool with diagnostic and prognostic utility in psoriasis, particularly when it comes to its differentiation from nonpsoriasis psoriasiform disorders.
“A Sense of an Absent Future.” Pervading Post-apartheid South African Literature: Re-conceptualisations of Temporality in André Brink’s Transitional Writings
Authors: Grzęda Paulina
Published: October 2020

Numerous commentators have recently indicated a prevailing sense among South africans of a historical repetition, a pervasive sentiment that the country has failed to shake off the legacy of apartheid, which extends into the present, and possibly also the future.1Such an observation has led South African psychologist, derek Hook, to conclude that in order to adequately address the post-apartheid reality and allow the process of working through trauma, there is a need to abandon the linear Judeo-Christian model of time derived from the Enlightenment. Instead, Hook advocates to start thinking of post-apartheid South Africa not as a socio-economically or racially stratified society, but rather as a country of unsynchronized, split, often overlapping temporalities. Thus, he offers to perceive of ‘chaffing temporalities’ of the contemporary predicament. Resende and Thies, on the other hand, call for a need for a reconceptualised approach to temporality not only when dealing with heavily traumatized postcolonial countries such as South Africa, but more generally when addressing the geopolitics of all the countries of the so-called ‘Global South.’ My paper will discuss the manner in which reconceptualised postcolonial temporality has been addressed by South African transitional writings by André Brink. I will argue that, although Brink’s magical realist novels of the 1990s imaginatively engage with ‘the chaffing temporalities’ of the post-apartheid predicament, their refusal to project any viable visions of the country’s future might ultimately problematise the thorough embrace of Hook’s ‘ethics of temporality.’
An Etymology of Afrikaansghoen(‘a shooting-marble’)
Authors: Bergerson Jeremy
Published: October 2020

The Afrikaans wordghoen(‘a shooting-marble’) arose in a setting wherein Malay, Khoekhoe, and Dutch were spoken and in which children played and shared vocabulary. Given the similarity of meaning and sound shape among Malaygundu(‘a marble’), Khoekhoe!gon(‘to throw something on the ground’), and dialectal Dutchkoen(‘a shooting-marble’), I propose that these semantically and phonetically similar etyma merged into the wordghoenthrough a process, here referred to as lexical syncretism, which has been remarked on by other scholars of language history and contact.

Multimodal Reduction of Elastic Vibrations in Plate Structure using Super Absorbent Polymer Beads
Authors: Tomioka Takahiro , Minamisawa Karen
Published: October 2020

This paper deals with multimodal reduction of structural elastic vibrations. Super absorbent polymer beads (SAP beads) have been introduced as a simple damping device inspired by the multimodal vibration reduction effect by passengers on railway vehicles. A series of vibration measurement tests using a 1:10 scale model of railway vehicle floor structure (model underframe) was carried out. The SAP beads which are sold commonly as water retention agent were stacked in a container and applied to the model underframe. From the experiments, multimodal vibration reduction effects have been demonstrated. A drastic difference has been observed when water was added together with SAP beads. To investigate the basic mechanism of the damping effect obtained by the experiments, an analytical model, which consists of multiple masses that are supported at an angle to each other, and its simplified model was proposed and numerical studies were conducted. Some specific combinations of the mass, spring, and damping elements in the model could express the experimental results well, and it has been estimated from the numerical results that each SAP layer act as an un-uniform subsystem.

The previous research of using truss system reinforcement in the beam without concrete (BTR) in the tension zone causes a decrease in flexural capacity due to the failure in the area near the support. Therefore, it is necessary to add tensile reinforcement in the support zone. This study aims to analyze the ultimate capacity of the truss system concrete beam strengthened with tensile reinforcement and to analyze the effect of tensile reinforcement in support zone due to crack pattern. This study was conducted experimentally in the laboratory. The dimension of truss reinforced concrete specimens are 15 cm x 20 cm x 330 cm that added tensile reinforcement with three types of length, they are BTRP 40D, BTRP 50D, and BTRP 60D, where D (13 mm) is diameter of tensile reinforcement. The flexural test is carried out by monotonic static loading. The results showed that tensile reinforcement in BTRP 40D was not able to carry the ultimate capacity due to premature failure in the support zone. while BTRP 50D and BTRP 60D specimens can enhance the ultimate capacity without facing premature failure in the support zone. The tensile reinforcement of 60D has the highest ultimate capacity because it can carry the biggest loads and minimum crack pattern.

“Blessed Are the Killers of Infants”—Understanding the Imprecation of Psalm 137 in Light of the Canonical Contexts of the Major Prophets
Authors: Park Ryu
Published: October 2020

The imprecation of Psalm 137, “Blessed are the revengers and the killers of infants” (vv. 8–9) does not seem to be in conformity with the broader messages of the Psalter, “Blessed is the man who delights in the law of Yahweh (Ps 1:1–2) and who dwells in your house and ever praises you (Ps 84:5)” and of the Old Testament, “Do not take revenge and love your neighbours and foreigners (Lev 19:18; Deut 10:19).” However, this imprecation of infants-death can be interpreted and understood in the literary contexts of the Major Prophets that show intertextual connection with Psalm 137 in terms of the imprecation and judgment themes (Isa 13:15–18; Jer 51:20–23). Certain passages of the Major Prophets contain the oracles of judgments against Israel’s enemies that are announced throughout Isaiah and Jeremiah as if the psalmist’s imprecation is answered. God would destroy Judah’s enemy, Babylon, in order to restore Judah.

The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted an explosion of publications to report, understand, further research, and manage this condition. While publications are analyzing the bibliometrics on this condition, there are none available specifically for the impact of COVID-19 on trauma and orthopedics. The aim of this study, therefore, was to perform a bibliometric analysis on COVID-19 and trauma and orthopedics to assess its impact on the specialty. A search for articles on COVID-19 concerning trauma and orthopedics, with the keywords: “COVID-19, New coronavirus, SARS-Cov-2, Orthopedic*, trauma, bone, and joint” were performed on the June 19, 2020, using SCOPUS and PUBMED and this resulted in 272 and 887 articles, respectively. Later, on the same day, we searched for orthopedic journals exclusively and extracted 258 articles from 58 journals. Furthermore, we analyzed the Altmetric data through the dimensions website to find the most popular articles on social media on this topic. After analyzing the data, we found that review articles were the most commonly published articles. The leading journal publishing this content were; The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (JBJS) American (35), followed by the Journal of Arthroplasty (22). There were 6936 authors involved in publishing 887 articles in 2020. Most articles were published by Vaishya (5) followed by Liang (5), and Iyengar (5). Analysis of Altmetric data showed a total number of citations of 5000 with a mean of 1.98. MedRxiv with 781 publications and 1616 citations was the preprint server with the most publications on dimensions. We studied details of the article with maximum AAS score of 25226 is with 840 citations. We have listed useful protocols from the search and top five cited articles from each search strategy. Publications on COVID-19 commenced from the 9th week of this year and have increased exponentially. Review articles (PubMed) and articles (Scopus) were the most published. The JBJS (Am) and J Arthroplasty have published the maximum number of articles on COVID-19. We found that for a fast evolving condition and for the short term, altmetrics may be better indicators than citations to follow directions of research. Publications with a low number of citations could have immense social media attention. This study should help in quantifying the value of research and publications related to orthopedics and trauma aspects of COVID-19 and therefore help the readers, researchers, and health-care providers to use this information effectively.
Community care for COVID-19 in the constraint resources is the need of the hour to provide health facility to the last man of the queue
Authors: Kumar Anil
Published: October 2020

In COVID era, the developing countries like India are facing big problems and fail to provide health care to needy patients. The main reason for this failure is limited health resources and overpopulated states. Considering these, it is need of the hour to establish community care for COVID-19 in every district. The trained health worker will be instrumental in categorizing COVID-positive patients in three different zones that are green, yellow, or red on the basis of mild, moderate, or severe clinical symptoms, respectively. All such patients may be treated under the guidance of doctors of the telemedicine department of the tertiary center with close monitoring under CCTV camera and other telemedicine software. The only limitation of this model is that we need to shift sick patients (red) to higher center. The estimated cost is approximately 2,29,000 only to establish one center.

Published: October 2020

Industri perbankan terus mengalami peningkatan tetapi UMKM masih banyak yang tidak tersentuh oleh industri ini. Padahal pemerintah sudah menggalakkan UMKM dan banyak memberikan stimulus berupa bunga yang rendah, namun mengapa ini masih menjadi dilema oleh UMKM. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian yang membahas hubungan perkembangan perbankan syariah atau pembiayaan syariah terhadap UMKM melalui kebijakkan Bank Indonesia yaitu suku bunga BI. Dan dalam penelitian ini dapat diperoleh kesimpulan bahwasanya peningkatan secara langsung pembiayaan syariah berhubungan negatif terhadap kebijakkan Bank Indonesia dalam hal ini adalah kebijakkan menentukan bunga dan secara langsung pembiayaan syariah berhubungan positif terhadap perkembangan UMKM. Dan secara tidak langsung suku bunga BI tidak terlalu berhubungan terhadap UMKM. Secara keseluruhan bahwasanya perkembangan UMKM tidak berhubungan terhadap suku bunga BI karena UMKM hanya butuh pembiayaan untuk modal agar dapat meningkatkan usaha mereka. Penelitian ini menggunakan data sekunder dari tahun 2008 sampai dengan agustus 2019 yang diperoleh dari data BPS, OJK dan Bank Indonesia serta diolah menggunakan Aplikasi Path.

„Würde Sie’s zu sehr ermüden zu begleiten?“ – Clara Schumann als Lied- und Kammermusikpartnerin
Authors: Synofzik Thomas
Published: October 2020

80 percent of Clara Schumann‘s playbills in her complete collection of concert programmes (Robert-Schumann-Haus Zwickau) include vocal participation of solo singers, choirs or actors. The question is to which extent Clara Schumann used to accompany these vocal contributions herself on the piano. Only rarely are other accompanists named on the concert playbills, but evidence from concert reviews suggests that these vocal contributions normally served as rests for the solo pianist. Sometimes separate accompanists are named in the concert reviews. In orchestral concerts it was usually the conductor who accompanied solo songs on the piano, not the solo pianist. The Popular Concerts in St. James’s Hall in London were chamber concerts, which had a regular accompanist who was labelled as „conductor“ though there was no orchestra participating. These accompanists sometimes also performed with instrumentalists, e. g. basso continuo music from the 18th century or piano reductions of orchestral concerts.
