Wegener's granulomatosis (granulomatosis with polyangiitis) is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by vasculitis of small and medium-sized vessels and the formation of granulomas. Most often, Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) affects the upper respiratory tract, lungs, kidneys, and eyes. Without treatment, the disease progresses rapidly and leads to death. GV was first described at the end of the 19th century. The characteristic clinical picture of hepatitis B was described by the German pathologist Friedrich Wegener. After the reports of F. Wegener in 1936 and 1939. In cases of necrotizing vasculitis with granulomatous inflammation as a special nosological form of vasculitis, this disease became known as Wegener's granulomatosis. In 2006, F. Wegener’s connection with Nazism was discovered, and it was proposed to abandon the term “Wegener’s granulomatosis” in favor of the term “granulomatosis with polyangiitis,” which, in general, more reflects the modern view of the essence of this disease. The term "Wegener's granulomatosis", however, is today used along with the term "granulomatosis with polyangiitis".

A Systemic Functional Linguistic Analysis of Spousal Conflictual Language in a Nigerian Play
Authors: Nweke Lucy Chinwe
Published: March 2024

This paperx-rayed language use drawn from excerpt of utterances by the spouses (characters) in the play, Clark’s The Wives’ Revolt anchoring on the Hallidayan Systemic functional linguisticas the theoretical framework known for analysing language structure and function. The purpose of this study is to reveal the experiential representation of conflictual language of the spouses in J.P. Clark’s Wives’ Revoltsthrough its transitivity processes. Twenty – nine (29) excerpts that depict the spousal conflictual lexico-grammatical forms are purposively selected from these plays after thorough readings and they are represented accordingly for easier referencing during analysis in order to determine the frequencies of the transitivity features, their roles, functions, and meanings. A qualitative method is used for data analysis. Results from descriptive analysis showed that spouses applied four (material, mental relational and verbal processes) out of six Hallidayan’s transitivity process types to express their experiences/actions feelings for each other, negative image of themselves, and their central point of argument during their conflictual interactivity. The result showed that experiential is construed through dominance of material process, followed by mental, relational, and verbal. The prevalence of the material is found to be as a result of spouses’ more of physical actions in their relations. Again, transitive verb which transfers action to an object is also found more prevalent and is used more by the male spouse. This reveals male dominance of power over his female counterpart. The occurrence of the transitive processes will help the reader to agree with the kernel structure of the conflicting issues.

Published: March 2024

Prior studies have shown that various individuals’ behavioral traits such as herding bias and risk tolerance have an unfavorable effect on investors' decision-making. This paper examined the moderating role of financial literacy on herding bias and financial risk tolerance on individual investment performance in Nigeria. The population consisted of 460 active individual investors in Kaduna city as at the first quarter of 2023. A total of 460 copies of questionnaires were distributed, with 349 valid. A census method of sampling was used, and primary data was collected using a self-administered questionnaire and an online Google form. A 7-point Likert scale that ranged from '1' "Extremely Agree" to '7' "Extremely Disagree" was used. Smart-PLS version 4 was used to analyze the data. The study discovered that the herding bias has a positive and significant effect on investment performance, whereas financial risk tolerance has an insignificant negative effect on investment performance. Financial literacy has a positive but insignificant impact on investment performance. Furthermore, the moderating effect of financial literacy demonstrated that the herding bias has a significant and positive impact on investment performance. Risk tolerance has a significant negative influence on investment performance. This study concluded that herding bias helps investors make better investment decisions, Consequently, the study recommends that investors should reduce their risk tolerance levels while maintaining the herding behavioral bias.

Authors: Bamaiyi Garba
Published: March 2024

This study investigates the impact of oil price shocks on selected macroeconomic variables in Nigeria from 1990-2021. The research employs ex-post facto methodology and econometric analysis, focusing on variables such as oil price, unemployment, balance of payment, exchange rate, and real gross domestic product (GDP). Utilising the annual Vector Autoregressive (VAR) model, the study explores the relationships among these variables, assuming them to be endogenous. Time series data from the Central Bank of Nigeria's statistical bulletin is collected for the analysis. The result of the unit root test indicate that all the variables are integrated of order one (I (1)), necessitating further investigation into their relationships. Impulse response function revealed the dynamic responses of macroeconomic variables to oil price shocks over a ten-year period. Granger causality test highlight causal relationship among the variables, emphasizing the influence of oil price shocks on unemployment, balance of payment, and real GDP. The findings suggest that oil price shocks significantly affect the selected macroeconomic variables, with implications for exchange rates, unemployment rates, and balance of payments. The study recommends policy measures to insulate the economy from international oil price shocks, such as diversification, encouraging local production, and creating a favourable environment for foreign direct investment. Additionally, the government is advised to formulate and implement fiscal and monetary policies strategically to stabilise the economy amidst oil price fluctuations, thereby promoting sustainable economic growth.
Perspectives On Unemployment in Nigeria: Lessons from Cuban Economy
Authors: Agbarakwe Ugochukwu Henry , Bredino M. Samson
Published: March 2024

Unemployment is a ubiquitous phenomenon in all economies. Though most empirical studies assert that unemployment is higher in less developed economies as compared to developed one; it is an established fact that no country has the capacity to provide jobs for all its citizen at same time. Hence, the attainment or maintenance of an acceptable rate of unemployment is a major concern of public policy formulators. Despite the numerous economic challenges, Cuba has the one of the lowest rate of unemployment in the world. How has it managed to achieve and maintain this? What did they do particularly different?

En este trabajo se determinaron los niveles de secreción conferidos por dos diferentes mecanismos en la levadura Saccharomyces cerevisiae, aplicados a la enzima glutatión S-transferasa (GST) y mediante ensayos de electroforesis y Western blot (o transferencia Western). Se construyeron previamente plásmidos que permiten la producción de dos tipos de GST fusionadas con sendas secuencias que facilitan su secreción (péptidos de señal, PS): el PS-Alfa (derivado del factor de apareamiento alfa) y un PS-sintético (diseñado a partir de secuencias de consenso derivadas de proteínas que son eficientemente secretadas en la levadura). Después de la separación electroforética de las muestras de proteínas intracelulares y extracelulares, se realizó un ensayo de Western blot que permitió la detección específica de GST mediante un anticuerpo monoclonal. Los ensayos permitieron la identificación de varias formas de GST, en su forma procesada extracelular (26 kDa) y otras de mayor tamaño, siempre intracelulares, dependiendo del péptido señal (PS) utilizado. Sin embargo, no se observaron diferencias en los niveles extracelulares de GST, demostrando que con las condiciones aplicadas, ambos péptidos señal son similarmente eficientes en la promoción de la secreción de proteínas.

El hollín generado en las arenas de fundición es un impedimento para la reutilización de las arenas debido a su contaminación, por ello la oxidación catalítica es necesaria para incrementar la velocidad de oxidación del hollín a menores temperaturas, mejorando la eficiencia energética y ambiental del proceso de recuperación. Los catalizadores mixtos de NiCe fueron preparados mediante el método de evaporación de solvente en proporciones molares Ni:Ce de 0.5:9.5, 1:9, 5:5, y 9:1 representados como Ni0.5Ce9.5, Ni1Ce9, Ni5Ce5 y Ni9Ce1, respectivamente y los catalizadores másicos CeO2 y NiO también fueron preparados por el mismo método. Todas las muestras se caracterizaron mediante diferentes técnicas basadas en su composición química, estructural, morfológica, textural y propiedades redox. Las técnicas de caracterización fueron: sorción de N2 (método BET), difracción de rayos X (XRD), termogravimetría (TGA), reducción a temperatura programada con H2 (TPR-H2), espectroscopía láser Raman (LRS), y espectroscopía infrarroja por transformada de Fourier (FTIR). La actividad catalítica se evaluó por TGA bajo aire sintético en contacto directo para la combustión del hollín. La calcinación a 800 °C y 600 °C de los catalizadores mixtos mostraron una baja superficie específica (3–74 m2 g-1) con tamaño promedio de cristalita que variaron con los distintos valores NiCe (9–22 nm). Sin embargo, se observó un incremento en el volumen del poro mesoporoso, un importante parámetro para la oxidación del hollín con aire. Asimismo, los difractogramas de rayos X del catalizador NiCe mostraron una introducción parcial de los iones Ni2+ a la red de la fluorita del CeO2 mediante un desplazamiento con respecto a la posición inicial del difractograma del CeO2. El catalizador Ni0.5Ce9.5 calcinado a 600 °C obtuvo la mejor actividad catalítica (T50 = 519.43 °C) comparado con los catalizadores Ni1Ce9, Ni5Ce5 y Ni9Ce1 and CeO2 calcinados a 800 °C y 600 °C. Se evaluó la cinética de oxidación del hollín, donde se determinó la energía de activación (Ea) tanto para el hollín catalizado como para el no catalizado bajo TGA con flujo de aire y se concluyó que el catalizador Ni0.5Ce9.5 (600) mejoró efectivamente la actividad catalítica (Ea = 73 kJ mol-1) generando la eliminación del hollín a una temperatura más baja.

This study aims to analyze the business of trading virtual currency cryptocurrency, particularly Bitcoin, as a means of transaction in Indonesia. The research method employed is a normative juridical approach, examining provisions related to the use of Bitcoin as a transactional tool in Indonesia. The findings of this research reveal several significant outcomes. Firstly, the business of trading virtual currency cryptocurrency, especially Bitcoin, as a means of transaction in Indonesia, still faces significant challenges. Despite the high public interest in cryptocurrencies, clear and definitive regulations regarding the use of virtual cryptographic currency as a payment instrument are still lacking. Secondly, the role of Bank Indonesia as the financial regulator has not yet recognized Bitcoin as a valid payment instrument in Indonesia. This results in legal uncertainties concerning the use of Bitcoin as a transactional tool in the country. The research findings indicate that the use of Bitcoin as a means of transaction in Indonesia lacks adequate legal certainty. Therefore, the business of trading virtual currency cryptocurrency as a transactional tool in Indonesia requires clear and definitive regulations. Appropriate regulations will provide legal certainty, protect all involved parties, and ensure fair and sustainable state revenue related to the use of Bitcoin as a means of transaction in Indonesia. The implications of this research emphasize the need for clear and definitive regulations in the business of trading virtual currency cryptocurrency as a means of transaction in Indonesia. Bank Indonesia and other relevant authorities need to collaborate in developing an effective regulatory framework. With proper regulations, cryptocurrencies can be integrated securely, reliably, and widely accepted as transactional instruments in Indonesia.

We developed an artificial neural network (ANN) to predict mole fractions in the extractive distillation of an n-hexane and ethyl acetate mixture, which are common organic solvents in chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing. The ANN was trained on 250 data pairs from simulations in DWSIM software. The training dataset consisted of four inputs: Feed flow inlet (T1-F), Feed Stream Mass Flow temperature pressure (FM1-F), Make-up stream mass flow (FM2-MU), and ERC tower reflux ratio (RR-ERC). The ANN demonstrated the ability to forecast four output variables (neurons): Mole fraction of n-hexane in the distillate of EDC (XHE-EDC), Mole fraction of N-methyl-2 pyrrolidone in the bottom of EDC (XNMP-EDC), Mole fraction of ethyl acetate in the distillate of ERC (XEA-ERC), and Mole fraction of N-methyl-2 pyrrolidone in the bottom of ERC (XNMP-ERC).The ANN architecture contained 80 hidden neurons. Bayesian regularization training yielded high prediction accuracy (MSE = 2.56 × 10–7, R = 0.9999). ANOVA statistical validation indicated that ANN could reliably forecast mole fractions. By integrating this ANN into process control systems, manufacturers could enhance product quality, decrease operating expenses, and mitigate composition variability risks. This data-driven modeling approach may also optimize energy consumption when combined with genetic algorithms. Further research will validate predictions onsite and explore hybrid energy optimization technologies.
