Margin trading and short selling and firms' digital technology innovation -- empirical evidence based on a quasi-natural experiment
Authors: Wang Zhichun
Published: May 2023

In recent years, China's digital economy has developed rapidly. As an important institutional design of the capital market, margin trading and short selling has an important impact on the digital technology innovation of firms in the new era. This paper selects Chinese A-share listed firms from 2008 to 2020 as a sample and applies a double difference model to analyze the impact of margin trading and short selling on digital technology innovation. The study shows that margin trading and short selling has a significant positive impact on digital technology innovation, and this finding still holds after a series of robustness tests. This effect is more pronounced in firms with a low proportion of sole directors, a low number of analysts to follow and a high degree of separation of powers. The mechanistic analysis suggests that the margin trading and short selling can contribute to the development of digital technology innovation in firms through two transmission paths: suppressing analyst disagreement and reducing share price synchronization. The findings of this paper not only enrich the literature in the field of margin trading and short selling and digital technology innovation, but also provide new ideas and paradigms for regulating the development of margin trading and short selling and guiding firms to improve their innovation efficiency.

ANÁLISE QUALITATIVA DOS HOMICÍDIOS PRATICADOS COM O EMPREGO DE ARMAS DE FOGO NA CIDADE DE JOÃO PESSOA - PB
Authors: Mangueira José Jonas , Batista Gustavo Barbosa de Mesquita
Published: May 2023

Este trabalho tem como objetivo principal indicar e esclarecer dados qualitativos acerca de homicídios por armas de fogo praticados no Município de João Pessoa. A partir de um levantamento de materiais bibliográficos em indexadores online e científicos, além de dados produzidos pela Secretaria de Segurança Pública da Paraíba e órgãos não governamentais, estudou-se o quadro normativo vigente no Brasil acerca do tema e cruzou-se os dados obtidos da Cidade de João Pessoa para realização de uma análise. Concluiu-se que os decretos assinados desde 2019, que alteraram o Estatuto do Desarmamento, se apresentam como facilitadores da violência armada e sua manutenção tende a agravar os problemas da segurança pública no Brasil. Ao observar o percentual de Crimes Violentos Letais e Intencionais da Cidade de João Pessoa, nota-se que a capital paraibana acumula para si 42,26% do total do estado. Além disso, o perfil das vítimas de Mortes Violentas e Intencionais - MVI na referida cidade se contrapõe ao perfil dos indivíduos que se interessam pela aquisição de armas de fogo. Enquanto os primeiros estão entre 20 e 24 anos, negros e homens, os últimos são homens, brancos, entre 26 e 60 anos.

Authors: Simas Camila Toledo , Lasmar Felipe Peixoto , Castilho César Teixeira
Published: May 2023

In early 2020, a new disease took the stage in the world, named COVID-19. Because it is transmitted via droplets and direct contact, it quickly spread across countries, being declared pandemic. The best way to contain this disease is social isolation, which has led to changes in the community, such as closing non-essential places, for example, gyms and other indoor venues. Thus, maintaining the regular practice of physical exercise had to adapt to the pandemic context. Aim: To evaluate a possible influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on the practice of physical exercise performed by university students in Minas Gerais. Methods: Cross-sectional observational study, involving 206 students from a private Higher Education Institution (HEI) in the capital of Minas Gerais. A virtual questionnaire was applied, with identification questions, aerobic activity practice and resistance training about the previous period and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Results: The sample had a mean age of 21.4 ± 3.9 years and a predominance of participants in the 2nd year of the course. When comparing the variables before and during the pandemic, they were significantly relevant, in aerobic exercise, a decrease in sports practice, an increase in the use of apps and practice at home. As for strength training, there were significant increases in the use of apps and home practice. Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic caused changes in the profile of the practice of physical exercise by academics from a private HEI, preventing training in gyms and prioritizing the use of apps and training at home.

Introduction. In connection with the emergence of a new coronavirus infection COVID-19, since 2020, a set of measures has been carried out in Moscow to ensure the identification, isolation and organization of the treatment process of patients with tuberculosis combined with COVID-19. Based on the data of the TB/COVID-19 co-infection monitoring system created in Moscow, the study analyzed all 430 confirmed cases of COVID-19 among TB patients registered or followed up in Moscow in 2021 in groups I and II of dispensary observation. Aim. To study the incidence of COVID-19 in tuberculosis patients in 2021 and to identify epidemiological features among tuberculosis patients in the second year of the pandemic. Results. The analysis showed that with an increase in the territorial incidence and an increase in the total number of newly diagnosed TB patients in the capital in 2020–2021, the number of confirmed cases of TB/COVID-19 co-infection decreased by 212 cases. Among all 430 patients, 52.3% are permanent residents of the city, 22.3% are residents of other subjects of the Russian Federation, 12.3% are homeless persons and 13.1% are foreign citizens. In 80.5% of cases, the diagnosis of coronavirus infection caused by the COVID-19 virus was established based on the results of etiological laboratory diagnostics (detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA by PCR in smears with mucosa from the nasopharynx and oropharynx), and in other cases - only according to radiation diagnostics (computed tomography of the chest). More than half of those with combined tuberculosis/COVID-19 infection – 59.8% were unemployed and 14.4% were old-age pensioners. In 2021 in among tuberculosis/ COVID-19 patients, 63.3% (272 people) were newly diagnosed tuberculosis patients, of which: – 53.3% were permanent residents of Moscow, – 19.1% residents of other subjects of the Russian Federation, – 14.7% are homeless, – 9.9% are foreign citizens. For new tuberculosis cases, the maximum number of patients, co-infected with a new coronavirus infection was at the age of 31–45 years, which was somewhat different from the age characteristics of the incidence for other patients. Because of treatment of coronavirus infection, 84% of patients cured of COVID-19 already in 2021, 12.1% (52 people) died. The created tuberculosis/COVID-19 co-infection monitoring system in Moscow allows for a full assessment of the course of a new coronavirus infection in tuberculosis patients, patient routing, analysis of the incidence of COVID-19 among tuberculosis patients, the effectiveness of their treatment and the causes of mortality.

The experience of the centralized control of the appointment and implementation of chemotherapy regimens for MDR/XDR TB by subcommittee of the head TB-physicians board of the Moscow Scientific and Practical Center for Tuberculosis Control in 2014-2021 presented. Totally, 6023 cases considered, 30% – primary diagnosis and treatment, 70% – monitoring of treatment. As a result of measures carried out under centralized control, the number of patients with respiratory MDR/XDR TB decreased by 4 times: from 752 in 2011 to 189 in 2021, mainly due to the cure of patients. There was a significant increase in the effectiveness of treatment of patients with MDR/XDR TB: in the 2013 cohort, the effective treatment courses was 45.9%, in the 2018 cohort. – 69.6%, while there was a decrease in the proportion of ineffective courses by almost 2 times – from 14.0 to 7.9%, a decrease of interrupted treatment by more than 2 times – from 12.2% to 4.8%, a decrease in the proportion of deaths from tuberculosis by 3 times – from 8.7% to 2.8%. The main difficulties of implementing new regimens of MDR/XDR TB chemotherapy have also been identified. The presence of comorbidity prevents the appointment of at least one of the most effective anti-tuberculosis drugs (bedaquiline, linezolid, moxifloxacin, cycloserine) in at least 25% of patients. The frequency of adverse events (AE) in MDR/XDR TB patients was 2nd stage severity was 33.2%, 3-4 stage – 5.3%. Correction of chemotherapy regimens with the exclusion and/or replacement of anti-tuberculosis drugs was necessary due to AE in general in 52.5% (95% CI 41.7-63.1%) of patients, and in 2.5% of cases chemotherapy was canceled completely, for a period of a week to 1.5 months. In at least 20% of patients, an important task is to ensure proper adherence of the patient to treatment, which requires counseling by a psychologist.

When evaluating the role of lactoferrin to improve the effectiveness of preventive treatment of latent tuberculosis infection in adolescents, it was found that the prescriptions of Lactoferrin imun + Colostrum contributed to a significantly more pronounced decrease in the frequency of hyperergic reactions in test with tuberculosis recombinant allergen (from 51.3% to 12.5% in the main group, from 50.7 % to 33.3% in the comparison group, p < 0.05), a decrease in the average size of the papule (from 17.6 mm to 8.2 mm in the main group and from 17.1 to 14.5 mm in the comparison group, p < 0.05). In patients of the main group, the restoration of free radical oxidation and antioxidant protection indicators to the level of healthy donors was established, while in the comparison group, the intensity of blood plasma chemiluminescence and the activity of myeloperoxidase in neutrophils remained elevated, while the activity of catalase and superoxidedismutase remained reduced. The level of lactoferrin during treatment in the main group increased to normal values (740 ng/ml, 95%CI 702.2-777.8), and in the control group remained reduced (440 ng/ml, 95%CI 411.5-478.5), p < 0.05. At the same time, the continuing level of positive reactions to tuberculosis recombinant allergen (Diaskintest®) against the background of normalization of the lactoferrin level indicates the high diagnostic capabilities of Diaskintest® to detect LTBI in adolescents

The analysis of the results of immunological tests (skin test with tuberculosis recombinant allergen in standard dilution, hereinafter referred to as the test with ATP) and laboratory immunological test IGRA, delivered in 2019-2022 to employees of medical organizations of the Moscow Department of Health, working in four administrative districts of Moscow (Central, Western, South-Western, Troitsk and Novomoskovsk, next – CAD, WAD, SWAD/T&NAD). Among the average annual number of employees over 5 years – 43,452 people, with medical examination and exclusion of tuberculosis, the prevalence of persons with latent tuberculosis infection (LTI) was 2.6, 6.1 and 1.8%, in the CAD, WAD and SWAD/T&NAD, respectively, or 3.4% in general to these districts. At the same time, the average annual frequency of detection of cases of LTI («first detected LTI») was 0.6, 1.3 and 0.6% in these districts, respectively, and 0.75% in all districts as a whole. 95.4% of the employees were assigned a course of preventive therapy (PT), 45.8% of which the course was started. Among the latter, 85.0% successfully completed the course, 14.1% – the course was interrupted by the patient, and 0.9% – canceled by the doctor due to adverse events. The main PT regimen used (78.4%) included 3 months of taking a combination of isoniazid and pyrazinamide (INN: isoniazid 150 mg + pyrazinamide 500 mg), which showed a low proportion of adverse events – 3.1%. The identification of workers of medical organizations of LTI allows to determine a group high risk for tuberculosis and to allocate a group of persons for preventive therapy

Published: May 2023

The Covid -19 pandemic and changes in macroeconomic conditions have had an impact on the performance and sustainability of companies around the world, including in Indonesia. This study analyzes the effects macroeconomic changes and the pandemic have on corporate performance and sustainability, proxied by stock prices. Five macroeconomic variables i.e. inflation, exchange rate, BI interest rate, world oil price, and palm oil price are used as the independent variables, the COVID-19 pandemic as a dummy variable and agribusiness company stock prices as the dependent variable. The data used is secondary data from 2015 to 2020 and analyzed by the ECM (Error Correction Model). The results show that in the short-run, world oil prices and palm oil prices affect upstream agribusiness companies’ share prices, while for the downstream companies, all variables including the COVID-19 pandemic have no effect on share price performance. In the long-run, however, all variables including the COVID-19 pandemic statistically affect upstream companies’ share price performance, while for the downstream companies, all variables but BI interest rate affect share price performance.

Published: May 2023

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of real estate development and human capital on economic growth in Kenya by endogenizing the central bank rate and inflation as additional key variables that affect economic growth. This paper employs an autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model to analyze quarterly time series data spanning from the first quarter of 2009 to the fourth quarter of 2019. The results reveal that real estate development has a positive and significant impact on economic growth in the short run. The study also establishes a long-run relationship between real estate development, the central bank rate, inflation and economic growth. Specifically, the study establishes that inflation and the central bank rate are negatively and significantly associated with economic growth in the long run. This study makes significant progress in providing empirical evidence on the effect of real estate development, human capital, the central bank rate and inflation on economic growth in Kenya. Additionally, these findings are useful to all economies across the world, particularly developing countries such as Kenya. This study recommends the formulation of policies to encourage investment in real estate development and human capital, as they are crucial for economic growth in Kenya and other developing countries.

Daadwerkelijk gedrag veranderen? Kennis van biases geen ‘nice-to-have’, maar een ‘must-have’

Decennia aan wetenschappelijk onderzoek leert ons dat wij in ons denken en handelen sterk beïnvloed worden door biases. Toch is hier binnen de praktijk van toezicht vaak beperkt aandacht voor. Een gemiste kans, zeker voor toezichthouders die, intern of extern, publiek of privaat, het verschil willen maken in het nemen van betere besluiten en het daadwerkelijk veranderen van gedrag. Dit essay beargumenteert en illustreert het belang om je bewust te zijn van de invloed van biases op het gedrag van mensen en niet in de laatste plaats van jezelf; een must-have voor toezichthouders.

All-Terrain Vehicle Safety Knowledge and Behaviors Among 4-H’ers
Authors: Porter Jay , Fuhrman Nick , Peake Jason , Edgar Don
Published: May 2023

Youth in rural areas are exposed to all-terrain vehicles,
but little is known about their knowledge of all-terrain vehicle safety and their
likelihood to apply such knowledge. The purpose of this needs assessment was to
determine what rural 4-H youth in Georgia knew about all-terrain vehicle safety and
operating procedures. A total of 287 rural 4-H youth in fourth through sixth grade
completed a previously validated all-terrain vehicle safety knowledge and behavior test
administered during a regularly scheduled afterschool club meeting. Only 13.6% ( n = 39)
of respondents passed the safety test, while 13.9% ( n = 15)of those who had taken an
all-terrain vehicle safety course ( n = 108) passed. Of youth who passed the test, 36%
had at least three years of riding experience. Participation in an all-terrain vehicle
safety course could save a child’s life. Still, this study revealed that retention of
safety information from these courses is limited, and riding experience does not
necessarily imply adequate safety knowledge. Youth development professionals should
consider partnering with local all-terrain vehicle dealerships to provide hands-on
safety training experiences on properly equipped machines where youth can demonstrate
their safety knowledge and behaviors and be evaluated by trained adults
What Does It Take: The Roles, Responsibilities, and Fidelity to Implement a Physical Activity in Public HealthTraining
Authors: Daniels Bryce T , Harden Samantha M. , Dysart Anna , Balis Laura
Published: May 2023

Cooperative Extension Service (Extension) Agents are tasked with incorporating physical activity promotion in their work. Physical activity training interventions rarely report specific structures (dose, content) and measures (fidelity, resource cost). The study’s purpose was to evaluate the feasibility and resource costs of Physical Activity in Cooperative Extension (PACE), a training to increase physical activity in public health competency. PACE is a virtual, 9-week, 18-hour general capacity-building training based on the Interactive Systems Framework. Fidelity was calculated as the proportion of objectives delivered as intended and total time to deliver core components. Resource cost was calculated as the time spent on each implementation strategy and responsibility and total time spent delivering PACE. Fidelity was 93% (39/42 planned objectives delivered as intended). PACE required 183 hours to implement, with session delivery (45 hours) and participant communication (40 hours) requiring the most time. Overall, time spent included 37 hours per delivery team member and 18 hours per PACE participant. The personnel time spent was within the standard time spent on other Extension training protocols and perceived as feasible. Fidelity to session components was high and easy to track. Future work should determine the scalability and sustainability of PACE within Extension nationally.
A Descriptive Analysis of Remote Work Adoption in the United States
Authors: Hill Paul A. , Ali Amanda D. , Narine Lendel K. , Spielmaker Debra
Published: May 2023

Advances in information and communications technology have
enabled organizations to shift traditional work functions away from place or where work
is accomplished to how work is accomplished (i.e., task facilitation). With the rise in
remote work, there was a need to describe the adoption process by organizations in the
United States. Given that the practice of remote work is considered an innovation, this
quantitative study was guided by the theory of Diffusion of Innovations and followed a
nonexperimental design with a correlational analysis, collecting cross-sectional data
from a sample of organizational leaders in the United States (N = 1,259). Results
describe where organizations range in the innovation-decision process of remote work
adoption and categorize organizations based on innovativeness. This research
demonstrates the role of COVID-19 in precipitating organizations’ rapid implementation
of remote work during a pandemic. Findings hold implications for leaders deciding
whether to adopt remote work as a formal workplace practice and can assist them in
making informed operational decisions. Findings also provide Extension professionals
with insights into responding to the social and economic consequences of the widespread
adoption of remote work with relevant, research-based educational programming in their
local communities.

Published: May 2023

Fewer than 25% of individuals in the United States with
hypertension have controlled blood pressure (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,
2021). Hypertension Management Program (HMP) adopted the Health Coaches for Hypertension
Control© (HCHC©) curriculum and adapted it for delivery by Extension agents. Eight
lessons with intermittent health coaching calls were delivered. Pre/post-participation
surveys determined changes in knowledge and self-reported weight, systolic (SBP), and
diastolic blood pressure (DBP). The pandemic forced a shift in methodology from
in-person to virtual delivery, and results were compared. In both traditional and
virtual programs, significant differences were found in weight, knowledge scores, and
SBP from pre- to post-participation. Mean reduction in weight for in-person and virtual
programs was 1.9 lb (p = 0.0047) and 3.5 lb (p = 0.043) respectively. Knowledge scores
increased significantly for in-person (p = 0.000) and virtual program (p = 0.0006)
participants. Mean reduction in SBP of 5.5 mmHg (p = 0.0009) and 1.9 (p = 0.0338) was
observed in in-person and virtual participants, respectively. DBP significantly
decreased by a mean of 8.5 mmHg (p = 0.0421) for virtual HMP participants and approached
significance in traditional programs (decrease of 5.5 mmHg, p = 0.0649). Results suggest
that participation in HMP, whether in-person or virtual, could help participants reduce
their risk of cardiovascular events through blood pressure self-management.

Published: May 2023

Structural racism has contributed to increased poverty,
food insecurity, and obesity rates among African Americans relative to Whites. Nutrition
education programs should therefore consider how well they serve this population. The
objective of this investigation was to assess whether African American and White
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Education (SNAP-Ed) participants in Louisiana
had comparable dietary behavior outcomes by conducting secondary data analysis of
previous program evaluations from 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 among African American and
White SNAP-Ed participants (n = 434). Variables measured included pre- to
post-intervention changes in dietary behaviors (e.g., self-reported consumption
frequency of fruit, vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy, sugar-sweetened beverages,
and juice). Statistical analyses included t-tests stratified by race and Pearson’s
chi-square test for categories of change in dietary behaviors. In categorical analyses,
Whites had increased consumption, and African Americans had decreased consumption of
whole grain pasta following SNAP-Ed participation. Among those who did not change
consumption patterns following SNAP-Ed participation, African Americans were more likely
to consume fruit juice and juice-flavored sugary drinks at a rate above median
consumption compared to White participants. Future research should identify how program
participation is followed by different dietary behavior outcomes in different races and
explore how SNAP-Ed could specifically address barriers to equity.
