FINANCIAL LIBERALIZATION AND COLLATERAL REQUIREMENTS OF SMALL AND MEDIUM ENTERPRISES – EVIDENCE FROM SOUTHEAST ASIAN LOWER AND MIDDLE INCOME COUNTRIES
Authors: VY NGUYEN NGOC THUY , DUNG NGUYEN THI PHUONG , TRUNG NGUYEN KIM QUOC
Published: January 2021

Small and medium enterprise (SME) sector is the main motivation for economic growth in developing countries. However, SMEs encounter different challenges in their activities. One of the biggest obstacles facing SMEs is the constraint on their accessibility to external finance due to the lack of collateral. Financial liberalization, through their impact on credit market structure, may affect SMEs’ dependence on collateral in accessing external finance. The main purpose of this research is to examine the influence of financial liberalization on collateral requirements of SMEs in South-East Asian lower and middle income countries including Vietnam, Indonesia and Philippines. To be specific, the author uses Probit and Tobit regression with Enterprise Surveys Data of World Bank in 2009 and 2015 to evaluate the effect of financial liberalization on the incidence of collateral loans and the level of collateral requirements. In addition to financial liberalization - our main explanatory variable, we control other factors which may affect SMEs’ collateral requirements such as country and firm characteristics. The main result shows that financial liberalization increases the likelihood of collateral requirements.
POLITICAL PATRONAGE AND CORPORATE LEVERAGE: EVIDENCE FROM VIETNAMESE LISTED FIRMS
Authors: HOANG ANH T. P. , PHAM ANH D.
Published: January 2021

Since the open-door policy of 'Doi Moi' was launched in 1986, Vietnam has made great strides, from among the world’s most impoverished nations to a lower middle-income country. During the development process, there is a growing tendency towards the co-operation between the public and private sectors with the emergence of state-owned and state-controlled enterprises. Previous literature have shown that politically patronised firms tend to gain better access to credit markets than others, owing to either established connections with financial intermediaries or state influence within major banks. This study explores the difference in capital structure between politically patronised and non-connected firms. Applying difference-in-differences approach to a panel dataset of 160 Vietnamese publicly listed companies over the period 2006-2015, empirical results indicate that politically patronised firms tend to hold significantly higher levels of debt than non-connected ones. Besides, taking an exogenous shock, namely the 2008 financial crisis, into consideration, the above results still remain true during the crisis as well as post-crisis period.

Authors: Robert Ornprapa P. , Kumsap Chamnan , Suksuchano Sibsan
Published: January 2021

This paper elaborates processes of modeling 3D trees for the simulation of the Army’s Tactical Training Center. The ultimate objective is to develop the 3D model database for inclusion to a game engine library. The adopted methodology includes collecting a forestry inventory for later 3D tree modeling in a Unity’s 3D Tree Modeler. Leaves and trunks were closely modeled using the data collected from the real site in the package SpeedTree modeler. Three tree types were sampled to demonstrate how close and realistic the adopted processes were to produce result 3D models for inclusion to the simulation of the tactical center. Visual comparison was made to show the final models. 3D scenes generated from the inclusion of the models were illustrated in comparison to the photo taken from the site. Further studies to adopt surface modeling data from UAV terrain mapping for tree canopies were recommended to verify photorealism of the processed 3D models.

Published: January 2021

Recently, seaports have paid much attention to container transportation by rail to evacuate huge container flow received by sea. In this line, Le Havre seaport, as the first French port in terms of containers’ traffic, plans to put into service a rail-road terminal near the Paris region. The main purpose of this new inland terminal is to restrict the intensive use of roads on the Le Havre-Paris corridor and achieve a better massification share of hinterland transportation. Containers are routed by train between Le Havre and this terminal and the last/first mile remains done by trucks. This paper aims to propose a decision support tool based on simulation for the layout design problem of this new terminal. This tool is tested using a set of scenarios and the obtained results are then discussed.
A generic terminal macro simulation model for measuring operational performance
Authors: Protic Sonja M. , Gronalt Manfred
Published: January 2021

Strategic decision making linked to the development of intermodal transport terminals is marked by high complexity. Terminal operators need to cope with uncertainties and potential cascading impacts of decisions which were taken a long time ago. The aim of this paper is to present a generic System Dynamics (SD) model of a terminal’s operational performance. SD is used to capture a holistic view on a dynamic system, which is characterized by complex feedback structures, nonlinear processes, uncertainties and time delays. After introducing the qualitative Causal Loop Diagram (CLD), the underlying hypotheses are transposed into a quantitative Stock-and-Flow (S&F) model. The main components and its input data are explained. The generic model can be used as a decision support tool to bridge the gap from a detailed view to an understanding of longterm consequences. It offers multiple areas of application, which are briefly discussed.

Published: January 2021

Port Logistical Supply chains play a very important role in society. Their complex and adaptive behaviours promote the suggested applications of combining a multiagent system with blockchain for solving complex problems. Several technologies have been proven positively to work in logistics, however the concept of combining converging technologies such as blockchain with deep reinforcement multi agent is viewed as a novel approach to solving the complexity that is associated with many facets of logistics. A simulator was developed and tested for the problem of container stacking. The simulation results indicate a more robust approach to currently used tools and methods.
Heritage Language Instruction for Post-secondary Students from Immigrant Backgrounds
Authors: Kondo-Brown Kimi
Published: January 2021

The “intergenerational transmission” of heritage languages (HLs) is crucial to the vitality of heritage language communities (especially for indigenous communities, where immigration is not a source of new speakers). We know, however, that HLs in the United States often do NOT survive well from one generation to the next as the shift to English takes place. In conjunction with the Second National Conference on Heritage Languages in America, a small group of researchers met to discuss priorities for research on intergenerational transmission of languages. Each of the ten researchers who participated prepared a short paper, posing research questions with some commentary to guide future research. Those papers form the major part of this article, covering topics related to language ecological patterns (in communities, families, and institutions), language ideology, measurement issues, and literacy.
Classroom Based Dialect Awareness in Heritage Language Instruction: A Critical Applied Linguistic Approach
Authors: Martínez Glenn
Published: January 2021

The present paper argues that while the Spanish for Heritage Learners (SHL) profession has given ample attention to sociolinguistic issues such as linguistic standards and language variation in teacher training, it has not yet given sufficient attention to the promotion of dialect awareness among heritage learners themselves. After discussing the role of dialect in heritage language pedagogy, I review some of the ways in which dialect awareness has been fostered in existing SHL textbooks and ancillary materials. I argue that these approaches can be sharpened by attending to the social functions of language variation. I present a critical applied linguistic approach to dialect awareness that focuses on the indexical aspects of language variation in society. I discuss three strands of this approach to dialect awareness: functions of dialects, distributions of dialects, and evaluation of dialects. Finally, I suggest some activities to present these strands in a first year college level Spanish for heritage learners class.
Receptive Knowledge of Transitivity Alternation by Korean Heritage Speakers
Authors: Park-Johnson Sunny
Published: January 2021

Heritage speakers (HS) have historically been attributed with what they cannot do or what they have lost; however while heritage grammars are inevitably different from the monolingual variety, investigating HS knowledge and abilities can reveal much about their capacity for retention. This article investigates Korean HS living in the U.S. and their receptive knowledge of Korean transitivity alternation, specifically, whether they are able to retain a phonologically reduced transitivity marker that is not reinforced in the dominant language, a previous unstudied area of heritage grammar and a feature that does not exist in the speakers’ dominant language, English. Participants (N = 20) rated their acceptability judgment of four sentence conditions on a self-paced online assessment. In a second task, other participants (N = 14) translated the four sentence conditions into English. Results revealed a significant effect of sentence condition for the HS on their acceptability ratings, Wald χ2(3) = 61.133, p < .001, indicating that participants’ judgments of test sentences were significantly influenced by which category of sentence they were given. The HS also demonstrated keen distinctions between sentences with and without the transitivity marker in their translations. Overall, the study shows that Korean HS are able to retain this the transitivity marker.
Practical and Theoretical Issues in the Study of Heritage Language Acquisition
Authors: O'Grady William , Lee On-Soon , Lee Jin-Hwa
Published: January 2021

A promising source of insights into heritage language learning comes from the broader study of the role of input in language acquisition. We concentrate here on the possibility that qualitative differences in the proficiency of heritage and monolingual language learners can be traced to a qualitative difference in the input available to each group. By examining a series of representative phenomena (case, differential object marking, and disjunction), we illustrate how shortfalls in experience can shed light on the many instances of partial acquisition and of attrition that are reported in the literature on heritage language learning.

Published: January 2021

Aim: The patient camp is an activity that allows MS patients to socialize and reduce their problems related to their diseases. For this reason, this study was carried out to determine how the camping environment affects the eating attitudes that will affect the nutrition of MS patients.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 40 patients who attending in the 6th MS patient camp were included. Demographic characteristics and eating behaviour of the patients were questioned with a questionnaire form. Anthropometric measurements were taken. Eating attitudes were evaluated with 26-item Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26). SPSS 21.0 statistics program was used to analyze the data and p <0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: In this study 22 women (55.0%), 18 men (45.0%) were included. 72.5% of patients were married and 32.5% were working. 50.0% of them were overweight / obesity. The mean age of patients was 1.67 ± 1.21 year. Mean EAT-26 score of the patients attending the camp was 14.65 ± 10.53 and the eating attitude of 77.5% was normal. According to the characteristics of eating, 65.0% of the patients do not like to eat alone, 97.5% of them like to eat together with the patients in the camp and 87.5% of them like the taste of the meals in the camp.Conclusions: It was determined that half of the patients attending the camp were overweight / obesity and 22.5% of them had an eating disorder. It is thought that holding and increasing the number of camp and providing support in these camps on nutrition, will contribute positively to the multiple sclerosis patients.

Published: January 2021

Objective: The objective of our study was to assess the reduction in severe pulmonary hypertension after PTMC in patients of severe mitral stenosis. Methodology: One hundred twenty-four patients of severe mitral stenosis with severely elevated pulmonary pressures more than 50 mmHg between 15 to 60 years of age of either gender undergoing elective PTMC at Chaudry Pervaiz Elahi Institute of Cardiology, Multan were included in this study. Post PTMC pulmonary pressures were noted 24 hours after PTMC. Results: Mean age of the patients was 35.45 ± 10.38 years. Diabetes mellitus was found to be present in 39/124 (31.5%), hypertension in 40/124 (32.3%) while no comorbidities were found in 62/124 (50%). Mean baseline pulmonary artery systolic pressure was found to be 72.61 ± 8.11 mmHg while mean pulmonary artery systolic pressure after PTMC was found to be 45.09 ± 6.06 mmHg. The pulmonary artery systolic pressure fallen from baseline by 37.92 ± 4.19 mmHg after the commissurotomy. Transvenous mitral commissurotomy was found to be effective with a minimum 1/3rd reduction in 119/124 (96%) while it was ineffective in 5/124 (4%) of the patients. Conclusion: Therefore, we conclude that balloon valvotomy is a useful procedure which results in a significant reduction in mean pulmonary artery systolic pressure irrespective of age, gender or comorbidities.

Published: January 2021

Objective: Our objective was to know the percent mortality of ventricular arrhythmia (VA) storm, its major leading factor and the predictors of in-hospital mortality of VA storm in our population. Methodology: In this retrospective observational study conducted at The Aga Khan University Hospital Karachi, all patients with age ≥16, with VA storm were included. Baseline demographic, clinical characteristics, laboratory parameters and management interventions were recorded in pre prepared questionnaire. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 21. Results: Of the total 74 patients, 86.5% were male, 77% were having monomorphic VT and 60.8% were in pulmonary edema. Hypertension (73%), IHD (63.5%), DM (48.6%) MR (56.8%) TR (50%) and LV dysfunctions were the commonest risk factors of VA storm. The mean hospital stay was 5.64 ± 5.63 and 59.5% patients were discharged home in stable condition. On bivariate analysis female gender, polymorphic VT, pulmonary edema, intubation, baseline hemoglobin levels, and baseline WBC counts were predictors of in-hospital mortality of VA storm with hazard ratios (HR) of 2.22 [0.95-5.18], 2.44 [1.18-5.08], 13.49 [1.82-99.85], 17.54 [2.38-129.44], 1.25 [1.05-1.47], and 1.06 [1.01-1.11] respectively. On multivariate analysis, female gender, intubation, and baseline hemoglobin level were independent predictors of in-hospital mortality of VA storm with adjusted HRs of 3.88 [1.02-14.77], 9.9 [0.95-103.25], and 1.47 [1.2-1.79] respectively. Conclusion: VA storm mortality for conservative management in our region is comparable to the international figures. Also we have similar risk factors for VA storm like low EF, structural heart disease and similar predictors of in-hospital mortality for VA storm.

Published: January 2021

There has been a tremendous increase in the consumption of high-energy (ED) drinks in the last decade. This has been equally popular among teenagers and adults of both genders and is marketed to boost energy, alertness, and performance and prevention of fatigue. Although ED contains a variety of ingredients such as taurine, guarana, L-carnitine and multivitamins, it is the caffeine that plays a significant role in affecting different systems such as cardiovascular (arrhythmias), neurological (seizures) and neuropsychiatric system (agitation and suicidal ideation). Symptoms of caffeine intoxication include palpitation, rise in blood pressure, insomnia, seizures, tremors and irritability, gastrointestinal symptoms, disturbance of sleep cycle and in rare cases death. However, in this review, we focused mainly on cardiovascular symptoms in addition to contents, mode of action and pharmacokinetics of ED. As several studies point towards mortality due to arrhythmias after drinking ED, it is important to concentrate on these deleterious effects.

Introducción: El Mesiodens es un diente supernumerario que se forma en la línea media entre los incisivos centrales superiores, más frecuentemente en la dentición permanente y en pacientes de sexo masculino. Su etiología es bastante desconocida, pero la hiperactividad de la lámina dentaria es la teoría más aceptada. Se presenta asociado a otras complicaciones, como el diastema interincisivo, que puede también estar asociado a la inserción anormal del frenillo labial superior, provocando alteraciones en la estética dentaria. El objetivo de este trabajo fue comunicar sobre un caso clínico de exodoncia de un mesiodens y de la resección del frenillo labial superior en un solo procedimiento quirúrgico, con seguimiento del cierre fisiológico del diastema luego de 1 año. Reporte de caso: El presente trabajo reporta el caso de un niño, de 11 años de edad, que ingresó a la clínica-escuela de Odontopediatría de la Facultad Independiente del Nordeste acompañado por su madre, con queja estética de separación dental. Después de la anamnesis, examen clínico y radiográfico se diagnosticó la presencia de mesiodens e inserción anormal del frenillo labial superior. Se seleccionó como tratamiento una técnica quirúrgica combinada de exodoncia del mesiodens y frenectomía en una misma sesión, con seguimiento de un año y observación del cierre progresivo del diastema entre los incisivos. Conclusión: El diagnóstico correcto de dientes supernumerarios y anormalidades del frenillo es fundamental, a través de un buen examen clínico y radiográfico para la realización del tratamiento individualizado, siendo exitoso en este caso la combinación quirúrgica.

La pulpotomía es un tratamiento endodóncico frecuentemente realizado en niños. A pesar de que se trata de un procedimiento seguro, se han reportado efectos secundarios. Caso clínico: Un niño de 10 años de edad llegó para revisión dental. Los resultados de los rayos X mostraron una lesión radiolúcida por encima del segundo molar primario superior izquierdo, relacionada con el diente permanente. La extracción de los primeros y segundos molares primarios se realizó bajo anestesia local. La lesión quística se eliminó quirúrgicamente, y el análisis histopatológico mostró un quiste dentígero inflamatorio. Una cavidad casomarsupialización fue creada para permitir la erupción de los premolares. Después de un año de seguimiento, el hueso se había regenerado totalmente y los premolares habían erupcionado completamente. Conclusión: Este caso resalta la necesidad de una supervisión regular de los dientes pulpotomizados, incluso si están asintomáticos, además de la fase de erupción de los dientes permanentes y primarios. La marsupialización del quiste dentígero permitió el tratamiento eficaz y la preservación del premolar involucrado.

Mycoviruses are viruses that infect fungi. Chrysovirus-1 has been reported as a mycovirus in Bipolaris maydis, which is the plant fungal pathogen for maize, and its infection results in the reduction of crop yield. We aimed to characterize Chrysovirus-1-infected B. maydis in terms of macroscopic morphology, transmission electron microscopy, colony size, biofilm formation, and stress responses focusing on osmotic stress (NaCl), oxidative stress (H2O2), thermotolerance (at 25, 37, and 45 °C), pH (5, 7, and 10), and metal stress (ZnSO4) in comparison with an uninfected strain. Our results demonstrated the presence of viral-like particles under TEM. The colony morphology of the infected strain displayed slight differences as significant delay in colony growth of the Chrysovirus-1-infected strain when compared to the uninfected strain. Moreover, biofilm mass of the infected strain was examined as being lower than that of the uninfected strain. Several stress response tests also demonstrated that the infected strain exhibited higher sensitivity to all stress responses compared to the uninfected strain. Thus, our results suggested that mycoviruses as demonstrated in this study (Chrysovirus-1) can induce the hypovirulence phenomenon in the pathogenic fungi (B. maydis).

El instrumento utilizado para recolectar los datos ha sido un cuestionario con seis preguntas abiertas. El análisis cualitativo de las respuestas reveló que un alto porcentaje de los alumnos encuestados posee concepciones alternativas, alejadas de las científicamente correctas, respecto a la órbita terrestre, las estaciones del año y las fases de la Luna.
Equidad educativa interna y externa: principales tendencias en Argentina durante las últimas décadas
Authors: Krüger Natalia
Published: January 2021

El sistema educativo argentino ha sido desde los años noventa, escenario de profundas transformaciones, como resultado de las medidas de reforma aplicadas en medio de grandes cambios en el contexto socioeconómico. Durante este periodo se han destinado niveles crecientes de recursos al sector educativo, con el objetivo de incrementar el acceso de toda la población a una educación de calidad. A través del análisis de diversos indicadores de cobertura y desempeño del sistema educativo y del mercado laboral, el presente trabajo pretende evaluar cómo han evolucionado en el país los niveles de equidad educativa interna y externa. Es decir, interesa estudiar en qué medida las trayectorias educativas son condicionadas por las desigualdades preexistentes, y en qué medida la educación está contribuyendo a reducir (o reproducir) las desigualdades en el futuro. La conclusión general es que más allá de los progresos registrados en el acceso y el perfil educativo de la población, aún existen importantes deudas pendientes. Los resultados internos, desde un punto de vista cualitativo, continúan distribuyéndose inequitativamente en función del origen social. Luego, las restricciones en el mercado de trabajo obstaculizan el potencial de la educación para cerrar las brechas socioeconómicas iniciales.
Estudio exploratorio con ‘orientaciones para autores’ en cinco revistas latinoamericanas de educación
Authors: Blanco Carlos Eduardo
Published: January 2021

El presente estudio aborda un aspecto del discurso académico en la educación al explorar en una clase de los géneros organizativos de dicho ámbito. El conjunto de textos analizados lo constituyen diez “Orientaciones para Autores” tomadas de igual número de revistas indizadas latinoamericanas de la disciplina de educación. Mediante estrategia cualitativa emergente, el análisis de los movimientos retóricos de dichos textos permitió conocer que la estructura más usual incluye cuatro movimientos, a saber: primero, el relativo a la revista; segundo, el atinente a los géneros a ser remitidos a estas publicaciones; tercero, el correspondiente a los aspectos técnicos para la remisión de los manuscritos y cuarto el relativo a aspectos de política y ética editorial de la revista. La gran mayoría de las “Orientaciones para Autores” pone de manifiesto estos cuatro movimientos, mientras que una minoría sólo tres. En las revistas analizadas se promueven varios géneros, pero el privilegiado es el artículo original de investigación científica que muestre resultados, aunque con frecuencia de manera no explícita, más bien indirecta.

Se estableció un protocolo de micro propagación de Phragmipedium kovachii, con fines de conservación, se evaluó la germinación y el efecto de auxinas y citoquininas durante las fases de multiplicación de protocormos y enraizamiento de plántulas de Phragmipedium kovachii. La investigación se realizó en el Laboratorio de Cultivo de Tejidos Vegetales de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias en la Universidad Nacional de San Martín. La semilla de Phragmipedium kovachii, procedió de la zona del Alto Mayo, se evaluó el porcentaje de germinación según (Gálvez, 2005), con pH modificado a 7. Para la multiplicación y enraizamiento, se utilizó un diseño completamente al azar (DCA), con diferentes concentraciones de auxinas y citoquininas con 4 tratamientos, 5 repeticiones y 5 protocormos (fase de multiplicación), y 4 tratamientos con 5 repeticiones y 10 plántulas (fase de enraizamiento). Los resultados mostraron una germinación de 60,48% y en la fase de multiplicación, en los primeros días, los protocormos mostraron un color Verde (V) en todos los tratamientos, pero fue cambiando con el tiempo, al color marrón (fenolizada) (F). Según la Prueba de Tukey (P<0,01), en los indicadores número de hojas por protocormo, tasa de crecimiento y longitud de protocormo, el T3 fue el más significativo. En la fase de enraizamiento, la prueba de Tukey (P<0,01), para altura de plántulas (cm), número de raíces/plántula y longitud de raíces/plántula, se observó que los tratamientos estadísticamente no difieren entre sí. Concluyendo que, el protocolo utilizado es apropiado para propagar plántulas de Phragmipedium kovachii en condiciones in vitro.
