Comparative Financial Performance Analysis of Neo Banks and Conventional Banks in India (2019-2023): An Empirical Study
Authors: Sharma Sakshi
Published: July 2024

Aim: This study will compare India's Neo Banking and Conventional Banking systems, focusing on their financial performance indicators from 2019 to 2023. The objective is to understand the differences in economic performance between these two banking systems and identify factors contributing to their net income. Methodology: The study adopts a quantitative research approach with a descriptive research design. It utilises secondary data from the Prowess Database and audited financial reports of Neo and Conventional banks registered with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Panel regression analysis is employed to analyse the data, considering both Fixed Effects (FE) and Random Effects (RE) models to assess the impact of various financial indicators on net income. Results: The study reveals significant differences in financial performance, using Fixed Effects (FE) and Random Effects (RE) models for panel regression analysis. Return on Assets (ROA) positively impacts net income, highlighting efficient asset utilization's importance, while Net Profit Margin (NPM) negatively impacts net income, indicating potential inefficiencies. The Asset Turnover Ratio positively affects net income, emphasizing operational efficiency. Gross Profit Margin (GPM) and Gross Profit show varying impacts, with the FE model preferred for reliability. The results suggest Neo Banks, despite operational efficiency and innovation, struggle with profitability, whereas Conventional Banks, though more stable, need operational improvements and digital adoption. This study highlights the dynamic Indian banking sector and the need for both banking models to adapt to a balanced financial ecosystem. Further research is recommended to explore specific operational dynamics and market influences. Conclusion: The analysis reveals that while Neo Banks offer operational efficiency and innovative services, they face challenges in maintaining profitability. Conversely, Conventional Banks, while demonstrating stability, need to enhance operational efficiency and embrace digital innovation to remain competitive. The study underscores the evolving banking sector in India and the necessity for both Neo and Conventional Banks to adapt to technological advancements and changing consumer preferences. Emphasizing the importance of efficient asset utilization and operational performance, the findings suggest that a balanced approach integrating innovation and stability is crucial for a sustainable financial ecosystem. Further research should delve into specific operational aspects and market dynamics to deepen the understanding of these trends.

Authors: Roe Matthew K. , Matyjaszek Sarah , Stein Amy , Sullins Kenneth , Brosnahan Margaret M.
Published: July 2024

Suturing is widely regarded to be a core competency of veterinary education. With curricular requirements expanding, training interventions that improve students’ suturing skills without added time would be valuable. This study evaluated the effects of stroboscopic visual resistance training, a technique using intermittent occlusion of vision, and guided visualization on suturing technique and speed. Students’ anxiety levels were also assessed. Twenty-nine veterinary students with no prior surgical experience were divided into stroboscopic, visualization and control groups. Simple interrupted, simple continuous, and cruciate patterns were taught by an American College of Veterinary Surgeons (ACVS)-boarded veterinarian in week 1, and students also took an anxiety test at this time. One-hour-long tutored practice sessions were held for each group in weeks 2, 3, 4 and 6, and assessments were conducted in weeks 5 and 7. Assessments were conducted by a second ACVS-boarded veterinarian blinded to group assignments. Students in the stroboscopic training group had faster suturing times compared to students in the control group for the cruciate pattern at week 5 ( p = 0.001) and week 7 ( p = 0.006), and faster times compared to students in the visualization group at week 5 ( p = 0.002). Students in the stroboscopic training group had faster suturing times than the control group ( p = 0.005) for the simple continuous pattern at week 7. No significant differences were observed in anxiety. There was no significant difference in technique scores for any group with any pattern at any time point. Stroboscopic training may result in faster suturing times without deterioration of suturing technique.
CHARACTERIZATION OF RESISTANCE TO BACTERIAL PANICLE BLIGHT IN RICE: GENETIC INSIGHTS AND ANALYSIS
Authors:   , Ontoy John
Published: July 2024

Bacterial panicle blight (BPB), caused primarily by Burkholderia glumae, is an emerging disease in rice due to its increasing prevalence and severity influenced by warming. The intricate rice-B. glumae interaction underscores the necessity for a comprehensive strategy involving diverse genetic background and high-resolution genomic analyses. Leveraging genetic resources such as parental and mutant donors, alongside biparental populations, facilitated this study, albeit within a limited genetic pool. Utilizing an integrative omics approach, which includes genomics and transcriptomics, has been crucial in unraveling the genetic architecture and underlying mechanisms of BPB resistance in rice. While pathogen recognition is crucial in this system, it was found in this study that efficient modulation of defense/ stress response through complex interplays and regulation of alternative splicing of genes are also pivotal factors for this disease. In addition, a QTL linked to BPB resistance (qBPB3.2) was identified on chromosome 3, adjacent to a previously identified qBPB3.1 from the same donor, Jupiter. This region, enriched with defense-stress regulatory genes, was known to be a broad-spectrum resistance hotspot. Furthermore, through gamma radiation, the generation of a resistant mutant line, LM-1 from a susceptible variety Lemont, provided another dimension of valuable insights related to BPB resistance. Variants in this mutant influencing the BPB resistance phenotype, which were detected through comparative genome analysis utilizing both short and long reads sequencing, were located within loci associated with regulatory pathways of defense-stress response. Henceforth, by elucidating the genetic intricacies and regulatory networks governing BPB resistance mechanism, insights gained from this study can inform targeted breeding efforts and can also provide avenues for engineering rice with enhanced resilience to diverse biotic and abiotic stresses.

It analyzes the process of changes in genre and stylistic parameters of piano music and their impact on the process of forming national identity, encompassing both the revival of folk traditions and the introduction of avant-garde techniques. Particular focus is put on the interaction of Ukrainian composers with global musical processes, which has enriched the musical language by integrating new compositional techniques. The study also considers the cultural and historical contexts that influenced the formation of styles and genres during periods of avant-garde, modernism, and postmodernism. The research emphasizes the importance of continuously updating musicological methods to understand innovative phenomena in piano music and their impact on the development of musical culture.
It has been determined that piano music of the 20th and early 21st centuries has become a significant indicator of genre and stylistic transformations in the musical arts. It serves as a foundation for innovative ideas that later found expression in chamber and symphonic music. Ukrainian piano music has played a key role in preserving national traditions, combining them with European influences. Particularly significant is the endeavor of Ukrainian composers to blend folklore and national melos with classical-romantic traditions, as well as their ability to adapt to social challenges, reflecting social changes and influencing the formation of a new cultural identity.

Authors: Koliada Andrii
Published: July 2024

The article examines the educational activities of the Open Opera Ukraine independent platform in terms of new forms of cooperation between artistic organizations and Ukrainian society. Although, before the establishment of Open Opera Ukraine, there were projects that popularized historically informed (authentic) performance in Ukraine, this organization was the first to initiate systematic work in this direction, namely the creation of opera performances, thematic concerts and master classes, the establishment of an amateur choir and a professional baroque orchestra, recording albums of Ukrainian choral heritage, etc. The distinctive feature of the Open Opera Ukraine platform is its openness in the media space and its attempts to involve people from different professional and social groups in its projects. The popularization of early art contributes to a better understanding of it and diversifies the Ukrainian academic music environment. The aim of the article is to identify the strategies and mechanisms of influence of artistic organizations on social transformations using the example of Open Opera Ukraine. The author concludes that artistic activity has a significant impact on social change, and the consistent work of art organizations can change public perception of the essence of cultural processes, views on the art of the past, etc. The projects of the independent platform Open Opera Ukraine affirm contemporary practices of artistic representation, and thus contribute to the full development of contemporary Ukrainian art and its inclusion into the Western European cultural space through common artistic values and practices.

Published: July 2024

Background: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a neoplasm of medium or large B lymphoid cells with a diffuse histopathologic growth pattern. Co-expression of MYC and BCL2 proteins in DLBCL by immunohistochemistry (IHC) is referred to as the double-expresser (DE) phenotype and is associated with inferior survival. Objectives of this study were to assess the DE status in DLBCL and to assess its utility in predicting the prognosis in DLBCL.
Methods: This was a retrospective study conducted in a tertiary care cancer centre. Study population included all the cases of DLBCL, NOS diagnosed in the centre in 2012. MYC and BCL2 protein expression were analysed by immunohistochemistry. The prognostic significance of double-expressers was analysed by comparing progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of double-expressers and non-double expressers using appropriate statistical methods. All the data were analysed using SPSS 11 software. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the survival probability. A significant difference in survival between various prognostic factors was tested using the log-rank test. Prognostic factors were assessed using univariate and multivariate Cox-regression model. A P- value < 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant.
Results: Double-Expresser lymphoma (DEL) constituted 22.2% (n=18) of all cases of DLBCL, NOS. DE status was associated with shorter PFS (P-value = 0.049) and OS (P-value = 0.015).
Conclusion: DE status is associated with poor prognosis in DLBCL, NOS. Assessment of MYC and BCL2 by IHC represents a rapid and inexpensive approach to risk-stratify patients with DLBCL at the time of diagnosis.

Authors: Vargas Macarena , Azúa Ximena , Carrasco Andrea
Published: July 2024

La Educación Sexual Integral (ESI) es un enfoque necesario de considerar para avanzar hacia una educación que considere los derechos sexuales y reproductivos como un elemento más de los derechos humanos. Sin embargo, en Chile se constata la ausencia de ese enfoque para educar la sexualidad, lo que da cuenta de la necesidad de reformular el currículum nacional para avanzar en una perspectiva curricular que promueva los derechos humanos de manera integral. Este estudio analizó el currículum nacional de Chile en relación con la ESI. Se presentan los resultados de una revisión curricular realizada por la Unidad de Currículum y Evaluación del Ministerio de Educación en 2023, en la que se mostró una muy baja presencia del enfoque de ESI en el currículum nacional y una fragmentación de los saberes, lo que no permite avanzar hacia el enfoque integral de la ESI.

Published: July 2024

Penelitian ini mengkaji perencanaan dan pengukuran sistem pentanahan pada gardu distribusi 20 kV diDesa Danau Gerak dan Desa Plencur, Kecamatan Semende Darat Ulu, Kabupaten Muara Enim. Hasilanalisis menunjukkan bahwa kedalaman elektroda batang dan jenis tanah berpengaruh signifikan terhadapnilai resistansi pentanahan. Perencanaan awal memperkirakan nilai resistansi pentanahan, namun hasilpengukuran lapangan mengindikasikan adanya perbedaan. Di Desa Danau Gerak, nilai resistansipentanahan mengalami sedikit perbedaan antara perencanaan (4,91 Ω) dan hasil lapangan (rata-rata 4,52Ω). Sementara itu, di Desa Plencur, perbedaan lebih signifikan; perencanaan menunjukkan nilai 4,47 Ω,sedangkan hasil pengukuran commisioning test menunjukkan nilai sebesar 1,31 Ω saat tanah basah pascahujan. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa kondisi kelembaban tanah berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap nilairesistansi pentanahan. Studi ini menggarisbawahi pentingnya evaluasi dan pengujian yang cermat terhadapkarakteristik tanah dan kondisi lingkungan saat pengukuran pentanahan pada instalasi listrik.

Published: July 2024

Cyberspace is examined in this study as an example of innovation in Islamic boarding schools in Veranda of Mecca, Padang Panjang. This study is restricted to six Islamic Boarding Schools located in Padang Panjang: the Padang Panjang Putra Thawalib, the Muhammadiyah Kauman, the Veranda of Mecca Integrated Islamic Boarding School, the Thawalib Putri Islamic Boarding School, and the Puteri Diniyyah College. This study approach makes use of qualitative research, and approaches for observation, documenting, and interviewing are used to acquire data. The findings revealed that a number of Islamic boarding schools made use of cyberspace as a teaching innovation during the pandemic, including the usage of robotics, YouTube, WhatsApp, Zoom, and other social media platforms, in addition to using lab space as a resource for learning innovations. The less competent signal, the fact that some professors still do not grasp technology, and the insufficient internet allowance are some of the suggestions and difficulties that educators and students encounter. Furthermore, a lot of students still do not comprehend distance learning, and there is still a lack of student enthusiasm in studying remotely.

Published: July 2024

We report about a series of methylene-imidazolones with complexing groups. The fluorescent properties of these compounds were studied in various solvents as well as in the presence of different salts. We discovered that two of the synthesized substances – hydroxyquinolinidene-imidazolone and difluorobenzimidazolidene-imidazolone – can be used as selective fluorescent sensors for cadmium and zinc ions and potentially as markers for monitoring intracellular processes.
Environmental criticism of capitalism: the main trump card of the left or an apple of discord?
Authors: Davydov Dmitriy A.
Published: July 2024

The prospects of ecological criticism of capitalism, which has become the most important and relevant for many left-wing theorists, are assessed. These theorists believe that the ecological crisis exposes the most vulnerable features of the capitalist system and puts humanity in front of a choice between catastrophe and social democratic transformations (or a socialist revolution). The point of view, according to which the ecological crisis can give the left-wing political forces grounds to unite in the struggle for a post-capitalist future, is criticized. On the contrary, it can be said that the actualization of environmental topics contributes to the new splits among left-wing theorists. One of the most notable splits is considered: between the proponents of green growth (and the authors of the Green New Deal projects) and the ideologues of de-growth/post-growth. The polemic between them testifies to the internal inconsistency of attempts to combine class struggle with the desire to preserve nature as much as possible. The difficult situation that humanity is facing today requires a painful choice between the material well-being of the maximum number of people and the preservation of the natural environment and “non-human beings”. In other words, attempts to put ecological criticism of capitalism at the forefront of leftist political theory would only lead to insoluble value contradictions, which makes a consensus among all the variety of leftist theorists impossible.
East Germans in the political elites of reunited Germany: the problem of underrepresentation
Authors: Khorolskaya Maria V.
Published: July 2024

The underrepresentation of East Germans (“ossis”) in German elites is studied. After more than 30 years since the reunification of Germany, the share of former GDR citizens in high government positions in the political system of the state at large is far smaller than their percentage in the population. Historical preconditions for the predominance of West Germans in leadership positions are explored, the share of East Germans in different elite groups is analyzed, and the factors that could facilitate East Germans’ entry to elite positions are suggested. Based on a large amount of data, it is concluded that East Germans are unevenly represented even among political elites. But the territorial principle and the democratic form of recruitment (elections) could facilitate East Germans’ entry into an elite. The research based on statistical data published by German scholars as well as data on the German political elite collected by the author and her colleagues is introduced in Russian and foreign academic literature for the first time. The database consists of information about 736 members of the Bundestag, 17 members of the federal government, 173 members of the federal state governments, and 59 state secretaries for the period up to November 16, 2023.
Shia paramilitary groups as an instrument of Iranian influence in Iraq
Authors: Krylov German L.
Published: July 2024

Characteristic features of the pro-Iranian Shiite armed groups, which act as influential non-state actors (NGA) in the main spheres of activity of the Iraqi state, are studied. Methodological developments obtained as a result of research on the NGA problem are used. V.V. Naumkin and V.A. Kuznetsov note the existence of a stable academic tradition of a state-centered approach to the problem of their typologization. This approach is based on the fact that an NGA defines and builds its actions, focusing to one degree or another on the state. Such formations have a political wing and a bureaucratic apparatus for participating in the life of the state not only as alternative to the army and police law enforcement agencies. They also play the role of parliamentary forces and economic actors, including those active in the shadow sector of the economy. Created at one time with the active participation of the Iranian special services, Shiite paramilitary groups have become an effective instrument of Iran’s influence in the country. The strengthening of their influence on the government of Iraq is noted. It is manifested in the transition from opposition to the pro-American Prime Minister M. al-Kazimi (2020–2022) to a kind of «symphony» of harmony and cooperation under his pro-Iranian successor M. al-Sudani. This factor affects not only the domestic political situation, but also the regional balance of power in the Middle East.
