The Relationship Between Saul Bellow’s Creations and the Chicago School of Sociology
Authors: Xianjun ZHANG
Published: October 2022

Saul Bellow was determined to be engaged in literary creation at the age of ten but he majored in sociology and anthropology in university. When he was a postgraduate student, his mentor told him that he lacked suitability to be engaged in social science research because his essays were easily turned into fictional works, and his intellect was suitable for some areas full of creativity and imagination. Surely enough, he was the first novelist who won the Nobel Prize in Literature among Jewish American writers in 1976, hence he became worldly famous as his mentor expected. Researchers had paid much attention to his literary achievement, but few studies tried to contact his accomplishment with his sociological background. In this paper, I will analyze the influence of Social Science in Chicago on his literary creations and the tendency of sociology in his works, on the basis of his academic background of sociological studies.
Study of Calligraphic Brushwork in Singapore Watercolor Art
Authors: Woon Lam Ng
Published: October 2022

This paper investigates the development of Singapore watercolor art. Although watercolor is a western painting medium, Singapore watercolor art adopted its concepts from both the traditional British watercolor and Chinese ink painting. While it inherited its painting techniques from the British watercolor, the concept of calligraphic brushwork was adopted in two diverse directions, one from the British watercolor and the other from the Chinese calligraphy and ink painting due to the diverse backgrounds of artists. The application of various forms of calligraphic brushwork and their developments have shown connections to their origins. However, deviations were observed as compared to contemporary western watercolor brushwork. The study has also uncovered how the abstraction of Chinese character design concept and ink painting compositions were adopted by contemporary regional artists. The outcomes have created potential applications in animation and digital painting, especially in the area of visual simplification.

Published: October 2022

The present study was undertaken for the characterization of wheat flour on the basis of protein content and dough quality and to evaluate the rheological changes of the dough after fermentation with a-amylase, protease, sodium acid pyrophosphate (SAPP) and yeast. In this experiment, three types of wheat flour (hard, soft and mixed) were used and the resulted gluten percentage were 1575, 10.14 and 5.78, respectively. Four types of dough samples were made. During fermentation of the dough, the temperature and pH of the dough mass using different leavening agents viz. a-amylase, protease, SAPP and yeast have been found optimum 24 to 25 °C at pH 5.9- 6.3; 25 to 26 °C at pH 6.2; 26 °C at pH 5.2 to 5.4 and 28 to 30 °C at pH 4.9 to 5.3, respectively. After fermentation, the content of gluten in different processed dough samples were estimated as 8.32 %, 0.11%, 6.5% and 3.15 %, respectively. The use of a-amylase resulted crispiness crumb, protease resulted very small yellowish crumb product, SAPP resulted very good crumb mass with increased volume and yeast showed more elastic crumb texture with gas cell at desirable stage. The results of the study indicate that, soft wheat flour can be used for quality biscuit dough preparation and the use of particular leavening agents can bring desirable rheological changes during fermentation. The particular leavening agents can also help to produce well structured crumb texture, sufficient gas cell (porosity) and color which are few of the requirements for standard biscuit production.
NATURAL GAS OF BANGLADESH: ISSUES ON EXPORT AND EXPLORATION
Authors: Ahmed S.N. , Hamid F.
Published: October 2022

This paper is aimed at analyzing the nature and consequences of involvement of foreign companies in the oil-gas exploration sector of Bangladesh. In this direction, it explores the energy scenario of the country and deals with two very sensitive current time issues like exploration activities in the Sundarbans and gas export. The paper suggests that such activity would endanger the ecology of the forest by proving disastrous to its delicate biodiversity. It also shows that the success rate in case of gas exploration is 3:1 for the whole of Bangladesh which is much higher than the world average of 10:1. Therefore, the term ‘risky venture’ does not go with the case of gas exploration. With respect to gas export the stand of the study is that, excess of production of gas over demand and consequent export of the same will ultimately lead to using up of the existing reserve within a period of only 15 to 20 years. As a result, in the future the country may be found importing gas at much higher prices than she has exported. Given this background, the paper questions the involvement of foreign companies in such activities not to speak of action in block 5. It is argued that no foreign intervention is necessary in the energy sector of the country as the national oil company alone is sufficient to meet up the demand for gas. What is needed is the formulation of an appropriate energy policy to ensure scientific exploration and economic use of this valuable natural resource.

Published: October 2022

Heritage sites are gradually becoming more vulnerable, due to natural decay and deterioration, effects of climate change, and non-climatic factors. An increased number of non-climatic human-induced impacts are causing significant problems in managing and conserving cultural heritages around the globe. For location and liberal cultural conceptualization, Bangladesh has a rich historical background with many remarkable cultural and natural heritage. Among many, the historic mosque city of Khalifatabaad, Bagerhat was enlisted as one of the world heritage sites by UNESCO in 1985 which is the only proven evidence of the ‘Khan-e-Jahan style’. UNESCO has already mentioned a few non-climatic factors which also made the heritage sites vulnerable along with the various climatic factors. Conservation of the historic landscape, buffer zone, and heritage property area is also addressed there. To identify the responsible human-induced non-climatic factors and their degree of impact on heritage sites are the primary aims of this research. Through site survey, detailed observation, documentation, oral statements records, and proper qualitative analysis the non-climatic issues like weak land-use policy, tourism policy & monitoring, implementation of land law and lack of social awareness are identified. For systematic data summary and findings, the Driver-pressure-state-impact-response (DPSIR) framework has been used.

Vascular injuries provide a significant challenge to emergency room staff because they call for quick action to avert loss of life or limb. Sometimes only modest or latent indications or symptoms of significant vascular damage are present. The patient may show signs of vascular insufficiency, embolization, pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenous fistula, etc., weeks or months after the initial damage. Although gunshot wounds, stabbings, and blast injuries account for the majority of vascular injuries, patients who have displaced long bone fractures, crush injuries, prolonged immobilization in a fixed position due to tight casts or bandages, and various invasive procedures should be evaluated for the possibility of vascular injury. Further investigations are required to help identify risk variables that might put a patient at more risk of suffering harm than benefiting from an intervention.
Redesign of a First-Year Theory Course Sequence in Biostatistics
Authors: Troy Jesse D , McCormack Kara , Grambow Steven C , Pomann Gina-Maria , Samsa Gregory P
Published: October 2022

This communication describes the process and results of a curriculum review of a first-year sequence of courses in statistical inference within a Master of Biostatistics program. Our primary aim was to develop an innovative course in statistical theory that meets the needs of a diverse student audience, the majority of whom are seeking a terminal master’s degree while a minority will pursue PhD training in biostatistics. The main results were (1) different course paths for job-bound and PhD-bound students; and (2) the development of an innovative first course in statistical inference, which is a computationally-aided self-discovery of a salient (albeit not comprehensive) set of key concepts and techniques pertaining to statistical inference. The redesign process addressed a key conceptual barrier: namely, the unexamined assumption that deductive proofs are a necessary condition for rigorous presentation. Consistent with the principles of constructivism, we navigated this barrier by redefining the task to which pedagogic rigor should be applied: namely, to help students to develop a sound mental map of statistical inference. We believe that the approach we used to accomplish this redefined task could be generalized to additional aspects of statistical education, among others.

Authors: Indriana Ina
Published: October 2022

Maintaining legitimacy through environmental management practices and green innovation is often seen as less supportive of the company's efforts to improve performance and competitive advantage. This paper aims to analyse the legitimacy motivation of companies participating in the performance rating assessment program in environmental management (PROPER). Another goal is to find out the effectiveness of the motive to maintain legitimacy in improving environmental performance and competitive advantage. The document analysis employs to analyse data. The findings indicate that maintaining the legitimacy of stakeholders is the motivation for manufacturing companies to carry out environmental management and green innovation. The data also suggest that maintaining legitimacy from a wider range of stakeholders brings more tangible economic and non-economic benefits, such as higher environmental performance and competitive advantage, compared to focusing solely on maintaining legitimacy from the government. The findings also show that the PROPER deconcentration policy which is being promoted to improve supervision of companies in environmental management by involving the provincial government, companies and universities is effective in increasing the number and compliance of companies in environmental management. However, the government needs to look for breakthroughs so that companies apply environmental practices beyond compliance by considering several points from the criteria or requirements for exceeding compliance in article 6, such as the implementation of environmental management systems, achieving energy efficiency, saving water, reducing and utilizing waste. non-hazardous materials and solid waste, are transferred to the criteria or compliance requirements in article 5.

Authors: Yasser Sadawey , Hesham Metwally
Published: October 2022

Acute pancreatitis and euglycemic DKA, EDKA, are uncommon but potentially fatal complications in diabetic patients on sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2). This case report presents the exceptional occurrence of a 49-year-old; male patient diagnosed with empagliflozin-induced EDKA coupled with T2DM as a precursor to acute pancreatitis. Euglycemic DKA may be produced after administering just one dose of SGLT2. On discharge, empagliflozin was managed to stop. Since the initial administration of SGLT2, this diagnosis should be considered a potential consequence. Appropriate medical treatment is made possible by diagnosing and treating this life-threatening condition promptly.

El Estudio Venezolano de Nutrición y Salud (EVANS 2015), evaluó 1132 individuos, para analizar desde una perspectiva epidemiológica, las interrelaciones entre el perfil antropométrico, la ingesta de alimentos y bebidas y la actividad física. Se encontraron desequilibrios en la ingesta de energía, macro y micronutrientes, sociales, regionales, por sexos y edad. El promedio de ingesta de macro y micronutrientes fue superior en los hombres y disminuyó con la edad. Sólo 14,8% de la población presentó ingesta calórica adecuada, predominó la ingesta deficiente (79,2%) superior en los hombres (85,7% vs 72,9%), más intenso en los adultos mayores. Proteínas: déficit de 25,6% y exceso 39,8%, el déficit mayor en hombres (33,5%) y el exceso en mujeres (47,8%). En minerales y vitaminas, el déficit fue más alto en mujeres, en hierro, calcio, zinc, vitaminas del complejo B, ácido fólico y vitamina C. La ingesta de energía varió desde 2.116 kcal en los andes a 1.688 kcal en Guayana. El sobrepeso por el índice de masa corporal (IMC) fue de 33,4%, superior en hombres (36,7% vs 30,3%) y la obesidad de 28,3%, superior en mujeres (31,6% vs 24,9%). Apenas 24,6% refirieron actividad física regular, vigorosa 15,2% y moderada 9,4% y dedicaron 6 horas en actividades sedentarias. Según IPAQ la inactividad fue de 65%, la más alta reportada por ELANS. En general los países de la región presentan un panorama de malnutrición, que configuran perfiles diferentes entre los países, los cuales deben ser tomados en cuenta en el diseño de políticas públicas orientadas a superar los déficit y exceso.

The Russia-Ukraine Conflict had a serious impact on the economy of Russia and Ukraine and even the world, among which oil, banking, entertainment, and other industries were hit hard. Through the fluctuation of the transportation industry index during the Russia-Ukraine Conflict, this paper concluded that the Russia-Ukraine Conflict had a negative impact on the transportation industry in the short term. But in the longer term, the transport index soon leveled off. This paper finds that the global crude oil price index has a significant impact on the transportation industry only in the short term, and the fluctuation is particularly severe in the early stage of the outbreak of Conflict. This paper uses time-series model, VAR and ARMA-GARCH, to capture the impact of this external shock on the yield and volatility of transportation industry. Based on VAR estimation results, this paper finds that the VAR system we use is stationary processes. Further research finds that, through ARMA-GARCH model estimation, the change of international crude oil price will lead to the fluctuation of production of transportation industry. But this effect is delayed, which also reflects the time lag of financial market transmission. In this paper, we find that global crude oil prices have a significant impact on the inventory returns of the transportation industry in the short run. At the beginning of the conflict, returns were volatile, with the magnitude of the oscillations decreasing over time, and while the returns of the transport index were negatively affected by fluctuations in oil prices in the short term, the conflict had little impact on stock returns in the long term.

The Russian-Ukraine Conflict, Crude Oil Price Fluctuation, and Dynamic Changes in China’s and American Manufacturing
Authors: Wang Biao
Published: October 2022

This study examines how responsive the manufacturing indices of China and the United States are to changes in the price of WTI crude oil over the three months prior to and following the Russian-Ukrainian Conflict, paying particular attention to changes in the manufacturing index brought on by volatile oil prices. To assess the static and dynamic effects of changes in crude oil prices on the manufacturing indices in China and the US, this study uses a time series model. The use of a VAR(p) model to clearly correlate WTI crude oil price volatility with the Russian-Ukrainian Conflict is the distinguishing feature. The empirical results demonstrate a strong correlation between the size of China's and the US manufacturing index's oscillations in response to geopolitical shocks. Both countries' manufacturing indices are highly susceptible to changes in WTI crude oil prices.

The rose of the interest rate caused turbulence in the UK stock market, raising more attention of investors on portfolio optimization. This study selected 10 UK stocks according to their market capitalization. By using the Monte Carlo simulation, this paper found the efficient frontier and constructed the 1/N, the maximum Sharpe ratio and the minimum volatility portfolio. The result showed that the British American Tobacco possesses the largest proportion of the maximum Sharpe ratio portfolio, and the GSK for the portfolio with the minimum variance. Through comparing the cumulative return of the three portfolios with the FTSE 100 Index, all three portfolios are found to outperform the benchmark index. This result may elucidate the portfolio management for some investors in this especial period.
Research on Factor Identification and Contribution of Bank Nonperforming Loans Based on Lightgbm Algorithm

Published: October 2022

In recent years, financial risks and crises have occurred frequently, which has had a far-reaching impact on the world economic pattern. Among them, the bank non-performing loan ratio (NPL) is usually used as a barometer of financial risks, which is used to identify the factors of bank non-performing loans. Combined with the current macro and micro economic data in China, this paper selects 17 indicators from four representative commercial banks from 2010 to 2021 as samples and uses the Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM) algorithm to empirically analyze the influencing factors of commercial banks' non-performing loan ratio, to quantify the sensitivity of each factor to the non-performing loan ratio. The results show that the influence of the bank's internal finance (0.7874) on the bank's non-performing loan ratio is much greater than the bank's external macro factors (0.2126), and the secondary index with the highest weight in the internal finance category is the medium and long-term loan interest rate (0.3029). Banks should pay attention to endogenous variables, especially the changes in medium and long-term indicators, and timely predict and reduce the risks caused by non-performing loans.
