Monetary Policy Instruments and Financial Performance of the Banking Industry in Kenya
Authors: Muia Edna Mbithe , Mwikamba Tumaini Mutugi
Published: October 2024

The Kenyan banking sector has faced significant volatility in recent years, notably marked by a decline in Return on Assets (ROA). This decrease reflects the sector's struggles with rising inflation, currency depreciation, and increased non-performing loans. Economic uncertainties and tighter global monetary policies have compounded these challenges, resulting in a more unstable financial environment. This volatility underscores the sector's sensitivity to both domestic and international economic conditions. In response, this research aimed to investigate the effect of monetary policy instruments on the financial performance of banks in Kenya. The study sought to analyze the effect of lending rates, money supply, open market operations (OMO), and the Central Bank Rate (CBR) on banks' financial performance. Anchored on four relevant theories—the Loanable Funds Theory, Quantity Theory of Money, Keynesian Economics, and Zero Bound Theory. The research utilized a causal design and a multiple linear regression model. Covering all 42 banks operating in Kenya from January 2009 to December 2023, the study employed secondary data. The correlation analysis reveals significant relationships between the monetary policy instruments and the financial performance of commercial banks in Kenya. Lending rates demonstrate a positive relationship with financial performance, suggesting that higher rates may benefit banks’ profitability. In contrast, both money supply and central bank rate show negative associations with financial performance, implying that increases in these variables might hinder profitability. Additionally, the analysis indicates a positive link between open market operations and bank performance, highlighting the varied effects of these monetary instruments on the banks' financial outcomes. Collectively, these insights underscore the interconnectedness of these monetary policy instruments and their impact on the financial performance of banks in Kenya. Given the complex interplay of these factors, policymakers should adopt a holistic view, regularly reviewing and adjusting policies to maintain economic stability while supporting a robust banking sector.

Background: Chronic neck pain ranks as the fourth most common cause of disability globally. However, the treatment for this condition is expensive and lacks substantial proof of its efficacy. Objectives: The study aimed to identify the effectiveness of myofascial release (MFR) on the upper trapezius and scalene muscles for chronic neck pain. Methods and Materials: The study was a double-blind, randomized controlled trial. A total of 40 individuals with persistent neck pain were allocated randomly to an experimental and a control group. The trial group provided MFR along with conventional physiotherapy. The control group got just conventional physiotherapy. The total number of therapy sessions was nine, with a frequency of three sessions per week for duration of three weeks. The visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to measure pain, universal goniometer to measure range of motion (ROM), and the neck disability index (NDI) to measure neck function and disability. Results: The experimental group revealed significant differences (p <0.05) and had a positive correlation between the pre- and post-NDI scores. Statistically significant changes (p<0.05) were seen in pain intensity and ROM. The results also showed that paired t-test within group analysis for NDI has positive effects on both groups. Patients' pain intensity and NDI scores improved considerably compared to the control group. Conclusion: Myofascial release therapy has shown to be beneficial in lowering pain intensity and increasing ROM in different directions for individuals with chronic neck pain.

Published: October 2024

Prayer is an expression or communication between a person and God, which usually includes requests, praise, gratitude, or a request for forgiveness. The problems faced in the field are related to students' lack of understanding of prayer and the importance of spirituality in the learning process. Many students are not used to reading prayers correctly, so that religious values ​​are not fully absorbed in daily activities at school. The purpose of this service is to increase students' awareness of the importance of spirituality in the learning process and to create a positive culture in the school environment. The method used is Participatory Action Research (PAR). Data were collected through direct observation and interviews with students where students were actively involved in the activity of reading a prayer of congratulations at the end of learning. The results showed that students better understood the meaning of prayer and were more involved and interested in reading it after studying. It is hoped that this activity can improve students' character and increase their gratitude for the knowledge they have learned. The results of the study also showed that, as part of student character development, schools should involve similar activities in the formation of religious character. Therefore, prayer reading assistance activities can be used as a way to show that students have gained a better understanding of the importance of prayer and have improved their ability to read prayers correctly and regularly. It is recommended that such activities be conducted regularly to strengthen students' religious principles and improve the learning environment.

Published: October 2024

Introdução: A sociedade atual, por um padrão disfuncional, vive um estilo de vida marcado pela privação do sono (PS). Estuda-se, a influência de tais hábitos na saúde gastrointestinal, na qual, observa-se, uma relação de causalidade bidirecional, de maneira que a PS cause um desequilíbrio da microbiota gastrointestinal, da mesma forma que a disbiose gastrointestinal provoque alterações no ritmo circadiano. Objetivo: O seguinte trabalho tem o objetivo de analisar qual a relação da privação de sono com a microbiota intestinal. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma revisão bibliográfica, com a elaboração da pesquisa através de sua questão norteadora: “Quais são as consequências da privação de sono na microbiota intestinal?”.As buscas foram realizadas por meio da pesquisa na base de dados PubMed Central (PMC). Foram utilizados os descritores em combinação com o termo booleano “AND” e "OR": ((gut microbiota) AND (sleep deprivation)). Foram selecionados artigos dos últimos 5 anos (2019 a 2024), obtendo-se 63 publicações, das quais 7 foram selecionadas; foram excluídos os artigos que não relacionam a disbiose com o sono ou que o assunto principal não fazia alusão ao tema. Resultados: Todos os artigos analisados abordavam uma desordem na microbiota humana como consequência da PS. Estudos feitos em ratos induzidos a PS observaram, após 7 dias, um aumento nos níveis de lipoproteínas, de citocinas pró- inflamatórias, como a IL-1β, IL-6 e TNF-α, e da produção de ácidos biliares secundários; e níveis reduzidos de triptofano. Além disso, o sono ineficaz contribuiu em alterações na flora intestinal, aumentando a colonização de Akkermansia muciniphila, Muribaculum intestinale e diminuindo os níveis de Bacteroides caecimuris. Estes fatores, cronicamente, acarretam em uma neuroinflamação do eixo cérebro- intestino, o que leva ao surgimento de sintomas depressivos, ansiosos e de declínio cognitivo, bem como alterações gastrointestinais e do sistema imune. Por fim, a suplementação com melatonina demonstra ser eficaz na melhora destes sintomas na PS crônica. Conclusão: Conclui-se, portanto, que estabelecer uma rotina de sono de qualidade, evita o desequilíbrio intestinal, psiquiátrico e outras comorbidades.
Recent advances in brain organoids: a comprehensive review of the last eight years
Authors: Xiong You-Ran , Wang Ting-Hua
Published: October 2024

Organoids are three-dimensional cellular structures grown in vitro that can self-organize and differentiate into cell types with organ-specific functions, closely mimicking the biological properties of tissues and organs in vivo. Brain organoids, which differentiate into structures resembling brain function, serve as valuable models for medical research, including disease microenvironment simulation, brain mechanism exploration, and drug evaluation. In this review, we analyzed 808 articles retrieved from PubMed, CNKI, and Wanfang databases using the keyword "brain organoids," of which 180 were included. We summarized the research progress of brain organoids over the past eight years by categorizing and refining the findings. Our analysis shows that brain organoids have achieved significant success in simulating brain development in vitro, leading to the establishment and refinement of 3D brain organoid models for disease research. Brain organoids have been widely applied to explore disease-related mechanisms, yielding promising results and opening avenues for further research on the human brain. In this review, we summarize the progress of brain organoids in three areas: culture methods, disease-related research, and brain exploration.
The Application Path of the Rule of Presumption of Evidence in Maritime Administrative Cases
Authors: Zhang Zheng
Published: October 2024

Article 35 of the Coast Guard Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates the rules for presumption of evidence in handling maritime administrative cases, which is a clear legal provision for the reversal of the burden of proof. The parties involved need to bear the complete burden of proof. In the specific application of administrative cases, maritime police agencies should strictly focus on the three basic elements of the presumption basis, basic facts, and illegal facts of the evidence presumption rule. Article 35 of the Maritime Police Law is both a presumption basis and a judicial norm. Maritime police agencies need to bear the burden of proof for the basic facts of the destruction of evidence by the parties. After reaching the standard of proof that eliminates reasonable suspicion, they can infer that the parties have violated the law. At the same time, in order to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests, the parties may refute the basic facts claimed by the maritime police agency or prove that the presumed facts of the maritime police agency are incorrect, but they do not demand a higher standard of proof for the basic facts than the maritime police agency.

Cultural Analysis of Female Cross-Gender Expression in Social Networks: A Case Study of Image Presentation in Douyin Short Videosv
Authors: Chen Xiyuan
Published: October 2024

With the continuous development of the internet and the growing awareness of women's social consciousness, the forms of self-expression by women on digital platforms have become increasingly diverse. Among these, female cross-gender performance has emerged as a key strategy of self-presentation in social networks. This paper analyzes two distinct expression strategies on the Douyin short video platform to explore and critically reflect on current female cross-gender expressions. The explicit expression strategy employs makeup, cross-dressing, and role-playing to simulate male personas, challenging traditional gender stereotypes. The implicit expression strategy, on the other hand, mocks male “ bad habits ” through the imitation of male behaviors and the use of symbolic metaphors, carrying a satirical undertone. However, these strategies have their limitations: male images are often idealized and trivialized, reinforcing gender norms; and constrained by patriarchal frameworks, they fail to genuinely subvert gender roles and the gender binary. As a result, while female cross-gender expression challenges gender stereotypes, it also faces risks of being disciplined and misinterpreted.

Published: October 2024

Background: Smoking is a leading cause of respiratory muscle weakness and diminished lung function. Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT), particularly with Tapered Flow Resistive Loading (TFRL), is a promising non-pharmacological intervention aimed at enhancing respiratory muscle strength. This randomized controlled trial (RCT) aims to evaluate whether IMT with TFRL can significantly improve respiratory muscle strength and lung function in smokers. Methodology: The study enrolled 60 adult smokers aged 18-60 years, with a smoking history of at least five years and mild to moderate lung impairment, defined by a baseline Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) between 40% and 80% of the predicted value. Participants were randomly assigned to either the intervention group, which underwent an eight-week IMT program with TFRL, or the control group, which received general smoking cessation advice and no respiratory muscle training. The primary outcome measure is maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP), assessed using a handheld portable manometer. Secondary outcomes include pulmonary function tests (FEV1, FVC, and PEFR), perceived dyspnea via the Modified Borg Scale, and changes in smoking behavior. All the outcomes were recorded at baseline and after eight weeks.  Results: Statistical analyses revealed that the intervention group showed significant improvements in respiratory muscle strength and pulmonary function compared to the control group. The two-way repeated measures ANOVA confirmed significant group-by-time interactions for MIP and pulmonary function tests, indicating that the changes over time differed between the intervention and control groups. Conclusion: IMT with TFRL may offer a valuable therapeutic approach for smokers suffering from lung impairment, particularly in non-pharmacological rehabilitation programs aimed at enhancing pulmonary function and reducing dyspnea.

Therefore, the economic effects of a changing climate should be known in order to be able to design appropriate policy responses. In the economics literature, one research field empirically analyzes the growth effects of global warming. But often those studies do not account for economic variables that have turned out to be significant in explaining economic growth. In addition, they frequently fail to check for the robustness of their outcomes. This can give rise to biased results regarding the growth process and, therefore, does not necessarily reflect the true data-generating process. Hence, the question comes up: how valid and reliable the results are. Therefore, economic analyses should be undertaken that study the robustness of the results as regards the integration of fundamental economic variables. When policy recommendations are made on how to deal with global warming, we argue that they should be based on robust results only. If that does not hold, economic policy risks being inadequate, giving rise to substantial welfare losses.

The challenges faced by jail personnel became significantly complex and demanding as a result of the widespread impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. It affected correctional facilities and their operations on a global scale. This study aimed to find out the challenges faced by the jail personnel of Zamboanga del Norte Correctional and Rehabilitation Center (ZNCRC) during the COVID -19 pandemic as basis for a proposed contingency plan in the facility. This study employed the descriptive survey type of research utilizing quantitative data taken from the responses of fifty-seven (57) jail personnel in Zamboanga del Norte Correctional and Rehabilitation Center (ZNCRC) with the prime purpose of determining the challenges faced by the jail personnel during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study revealed that mental health issues, intervention management and challenges on duties and functions was perceived to be rarely experienced by the respondents. However, the jail personnel had frequently experienced problems relative to supplies and facilities. The findings of this study have practical implications in developing a contingency plan and securing enough funds to enhance supplies and facilities for both jail personnel and those Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDL). This is to effectively deal with the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The low level of early reading skills among primary school students in Indonesia is one of the significant challenges in education. International evaluations such as PISA show that Indonesian students' basic literacy skills are still below average, affecting their overall academic development. One of the contributing factors to these low results is learning that is less relevant to students' socio-cultural context. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effect of a socio-cultural-based digital teaching module on primary school students' beginning reading skills. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a sample of 200 grade 1 students divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group learned using socio-cultural-based digital teaching modules, while the control group applied conventional learning methods. The instrument used was a beginning reading test with 20 questions that measured the ability to recognize letter symbols, distinguish words based on the same initial letter or syllable, and compose syllables into words. Independent Sample T-Test analyzing an independent sample, ensuring that the ty and homogeneity tests were met. The results revealed significant differences between the experimental and control groups, with the experimental group showing more significant improvement in all indicators of beginning reading ability. Further discussion showed that the socio-cultural-based approach in this module made learning more relevant, exciting and interactive for students, ultimately improving their reading comprehension and motivation. In addition, integrating digital technology in this module supports flexibility and continuity of learning, allowing students to learn according to their pace and needs. This research has important implications, namely the need for broader implementation of Socio-Cultural Based Digital Teaching Modules in primary schools to improve basic literacy. However, to ensure its successful implementation, adequate technological infrastructure support and teacher training are needed to optimize this digital-based learning in the classroom.

La compétence publique, qu’elle soit politique ou administrative, est d’attribution en RDC, à tel point que poser les actions de sa compétence, dans le but de réaliser l’intérêt général, constitue pour toute autorité publique l’application du Droit public positif congolais, qui est lui-même réputé suivre de loin l’évolution des exigences sociales. Ce faisant, si d’après le normativisme de Kelsen, en vertu duquel ce Droit public congolais est posé, toute création du Droit est aussi application du Droit et vice-versa, alors comment expliquer que ce Droit public positif congolais, créé en application du Droit, ne revête pas un caractère pratique ou n’advienne pas l’intérêt général. C’est en réponse à cette préoccupation que cette dissertation critique le normativisme de Kelsen, fondement de la positivisation du Droit public congolais, en vue de déterminer l’application du Droit susceptible de réaliser l’intérêt général en RDC. Mots-clés : Création-application du Droit, Intérêt général, Droit praxéologique.

Les impôts constituent la principale source de revenus pour la plupart des Etats modernes. Cependant, les dépenses publiques étant continuellement croissantes, chaque Etat cherche à tout prix la maximisation de ses recettes tant fiscales que non fiscales en vue de faire face aux différentes charges publiques. Cette enquête porte sur l’apport de recettes fiscales de la Direction Générale des Impôt au budget de l’Etat. Il en résulte que les réalisations par rapport aux assignations imposées par l’Etat à la DGI, paraissent intéressantes, durant toutes les périodes sous-examen, et lesbrecettes fiscales réalisées par cette régie financière participent très favorablement au budget de l’Etat.

Belief Formation: A Cultural Evolutionary Lens
Authors: Alaei Ardekani Mostafa , Hamzepour Mahta
Published: October 2024

This paper investigates changes in belief and their evolution in relation to the paradigm of cultural evolution. It underlines the interaction of the environmental factor with the social dynamic. The model proposed herein is extremely widespread and involves the creation, maintenance, and diffusion of beliefs that afford a perspective on how such processes influence individual and collective psychological constructs. By synthesizing theories in the fields of biology, anthropology, and psychology, this research will argue that cultural evolution is one key mechanism able to explain both diversity and variability in human belief.
The examination suggests that beliefs cannot be cast solely as some sort of passive variant of personal cognition; instead, they are actively generated by cultural dynamics and social learning techniques such as imitation and instruction.
It is a book that places more emphasis on the role of political ideology in accepting scientific evidence and shows how directed reasoning leads to the perpetuation of noxious beliefs.
It then investigates transfer biases supporting the reproduction of cultural traits across successive generations, hence affecting social structure and any effort of cooperation. This may lead to a nuanced grasp of how beliefs can be advantageous or disastrous, considering the prevailing social structures and ecology within which they live. Based on the wealth of research regarding under what circumstances beliefs arise and spread, this paper examines from a critical perspective psychological processes of belief systems and what they might portend for human behavior and social organization.
