From business to clinical trials: a systematic review of the literature on fraud detection methods to be used in central statistical monitoring
Authors: Fronc Maciej , Jakubczyk Michał
Published: December 2022

Data-driven decisions can be suboptimal when the data are distorted by fraudulent behaviour. Fraud is a common occurrence in finance or other related industries, where large datasets are handled and motivation for financial gain may be high. In order to detect and prevent fraud, quantitative methods are used. Fraud, however, is also committed in other circumstances, e.g. during clinical trials. The article aims to verify which analytical fraud-detection methods used in finance may be adopted in the field of clinical trials. We systematically reviewed papers published over the last five years in two databases (Scopus and Web of Science) from the field of economics, finance, management and business in general. We considered the broad scope of data mining techniques including artificial intelligence algorithms. As a result, 37 quantitative methods were identified with the potential of being fit for application in clinical trials. The methods were grouped into three categories: pre-processing techniques, supervised learning and unsupervised learning. Our findings may enhance the future use of fraud-detection methods in clinical trials.

Published: December 2022

Background: Depression is a severe neurological condition that interferes with the brain neurochemistry and downstream signaling pathways that are involved in the regulation of mood and behavior. Studies have highlighted the antidepressant potential of GABA mimetics such as Barbiturates and Benzodiazepines. Objective: This study investigated the activities of Phenobarbitone in acute and chronic mice models of depression. Methodology: The experimental animals received a single intraperitoneal injection of Phenobarbitone 10mg/kg, 5mg/kg, 2.5mg/kg and 0.5mg/kg respectively. Imipramine 20mg/kg was used as a positive control and 0.1mg/kg of distilled water was used as the negative control. The experimental animals were subjected to a series of stressors using neurobehavioral assays in the Forced swimming test (FST), Tail suspension test (TST), and Chronic mild stress (CMS) models of depression. The duration of immobility in the TST and FST were taken as an index of behavioral despair which is a core index of depression, while aversion to consumption of palatable solution containing 2% sucrose was also taken as index anhedonia, a symptom of depression. Result: A statistically significant decrease in the immobility time was observed in the highest dose tested i.e., 10 mg/kg Phenobarbitone (P<0.05) in both phases of the study when compared to control. There was no statistically significant decrease in the immobility time in the 5mg/kg, 2.5mg/kg, and 0.5mg/kg groups in both phases of the experiment when compared to the control. Mice subjected to the Sucrose preference test showed an increase in sucrose preference at the highest dose tested, while mice subjected to the Open field test (OFT) following exposure to CMS paradigms did not show any statistically significant increase in locomotory activity (line crossings) when compared to control. Conclusion: The result of the study indicates that Phenobarbitone possesses antidepressant activity at the highest dose tested (10mg/kg).

Published: December 2022

Background: Globally, Group A ß-Haemolytic Streptococcus (GAßHS) pharyngitis and its complications are major contributors to childhood morbidity and mortality, especially in developing countries. The diagnosis and treatment of GAßHS pharyngitis in these countries is often empirical resulting in frequent misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment. Determining the local prevalence and clinical presentations of GAßHS pharyngitis will be essential for making informed clinical decision. Objective: The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence and clinical presentations of GAßHS among children with pharyngitis at a tertiary hospital in Gombe, North-eastern Nigeria. Methods: 324 children aged 3-18 years were consecutively recruited at the out-patient clinic between 1st April 2018 to 30th September 2018. Socio-demographic and clinical features were recorded and throat swab samples were cultured on 5% sheep blood agar to diagnose GAßHS.Result: The prevalence of GAßHS pharyngitis was 25.9% and was significantly higher; in females (67.1%) (p=0.046), in children aged 11-14 years (32.1%) (p= 0.008) and during peak rainfall (p=0.001). The clinical features significantly associated with GAßHS pharyngitis were; runny nose (p<0.001), cough (p<0.001) and sorethroat (p<0.001), fever (p<0.001), palatal petechiae (p<0.001), pharyngeal erythema and exudates (p=0.001), tonsillar enlargement and exudates (p<0.001), cervical lymph node tenderness (p=0.010), halitosis (p=0.029), and scarlet rash (p=0.001). Conclusion: GAßHS pharyngitis is prevalent in children especially during peak of rainfall and some clinical features are commoner among patients with GAßHS pharyngitis. These clinical symptoms and signs can be used to guide empiric treatment decision.

Background:Job satisfaction refers to how people feel about their jobs and the different aspects of their jobs. Job satisfaction has been associated with benefits that range from giving an employee the motivation to work, improving the performance of employees, efficiency, commitment, and reduction of burnout level. Job satisfaction is an important determinant of productivity and effective service delivery in the workplace. Objective:To assess the level of job satisfaction, factors associated with it and the difference in job satisfaction between doctors and nurses in Federal Teaching Hospital, Gombe, Nigeria Methodology: A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out among doctors and nurses of the federal teaching hospital Gombe. A Cluster sampling technique was implored to select the study participants. Data was collected using a semi-structured, self-administered questionnaire. The questionnaire was divided into two sections; socio-demographic data and evaluation of job satisfaction which has five domains (general satisfaction, opportunity to develop and responsibility, patient care, time pressure, and staff relation). Results were presented in the form of tables, and charts and described using mean and standard deviation. The analysis was carried out using the statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) program. The level of job satisfaction was measured on a five-point Likert scale. The association between the independent variable with overall job satisfaction was then determined using the chi-square test, taking p-value <0.05 to be statistically significant. Results: The mean age, length of service, and working hours were found to be 35.6±8.7 years, 8.2±5.9 years, and 8.5±1.9 hours respectively. Only 37.1% of the respondents were nurses, and 62.9% of the respondents were doctors. The study showed that the overall job satisfaction of respondents was 90.0%, of which 82.7% of respondents were satisfied with the general aspect of their job. The study also found that job satisfaction amongst nurses and doctors was associated with younger age and shorter working hours per day with p values of <0.001 and 0.002 respectively. Conclusion: Job satisfaction among the doctors and nurses in this study is high. The younger staff and those working shorter hours daily are more satisfied with their jobs. We recommend that the daily working hours should also be reviewed and those working longer hours be compensated for the additional hours done daily

Authors:   Faculty of Education and Psychology, Eötvös Loránd University, Hungary, Zsolnai, Aniko , Kasik László ,   Institute of Education, University of Szeged Social Competence Research Group, Hungary
Published: December 2022

This longitudinal study aimed to analyse what coping strategies 8- and 12-year-old children use in frustrating situations. The participants were Hungarian students and their teachers. In the first investigation, children were aged 8 (N=52), and then they were re-examined four years later (N=45). Two Likert-type questionnaires (teacher and student versions) were developed and administered in the study. The instruments proved to be highly reliable (Cronbach’s α: .84-.86). The questionnaires enabled the researchers to investigate the following behaviourally observable strategies: physical aggression, verbal aggression, resistance, venting/crying, avoidance, teacher-seeking, peer-seeking, following the norms and following teacher’s instructions. In most frustrating situations, the frequency of physical and verbal aggression and venting increased with age. Both the self and teacher reports indicated that as students grew older, they were less inclined to seek peer or teacher’s help. The correlation between the teacher and self-ratings is weak, particularly in the 12-year-old cohort (p < .05).

Chemistry in a Bottle: Ester Formation in Acidified Mobile-Phase Solvents
Authors: Metzger Benedikt , Shoykhet Konstantin , Buckenmaier Stephan
Published: December 2022

Acidified solvents are commonly used in reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) to adjust mobile-phase pH and the ionization state of ionogenic compounds. When methanol-containing solvents are acidified with formic or trifluoroacetic acids, esters can be formed at chromatographically relevant rates, affecting baseline quality, retention, and selectivity. Understanding these effects is the first step toward avoiding the problems that can be caused by esterification in the bottle.
New Perspectives on Comparative Analysis for Comprehensive Two-Dimensional Gas Chromatography
Authors: Cain Caitlin N. , Synovec Robert E.
Published: December 2022

Because of the growing number of analysis scenarios involving complex samples, comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC–TOF-MS) is now a prominent technique for characterization. However, the limitations on time, expenses, and sample quantities, as well as the need for specialized expertise in comparative analysis, can prevent the discovery of analytes that distinguish multiple samples. This article provides an overview of the development and current status of comparative analysis for GC×GC–TOF-MS data and how key limitations can be overcome with a novel tile-based pairwise analysis method.
Analysis of Near 400 Pesticides in Tea via LC–MS/MS: Simple Sample Preparation and APCI to Improve Analyte Coverage
Authors: Kasperkiewicz Alexander , Qin Feng , Dalmia Avinash , Dillion Thomas
Published: December 2022

As regulatory laboratories search for and implement consolidated methods for multiple matrix and analyte classes, compound lists increase to hundreds or thousands of targets. Multi-instrument approaches are often relied upon to analyze all pesticide targets, with the workload split between liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) instrumentation. In this work, a simple solvent extraction approach was coupled with dual source electrospray ionization (ESI) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) modes on an LC–tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) instrument to analyze 395 analytes extracted from black tea (345 compounds via ESI and 50 compounds via APCI, along with the internal standards). Excellent method performance (defined as an accuracy of 70–120% and a precision of <20% at one of two validation levels) was achieved for over 93% of analytes, including compounds normally analyzed by GC–MS, such as trifluralin, chlorfenson, chlormephos, fenchlorphos, etridiazole, and others. This approach can allow the consolidation of a pesticide method to a single instrument or significantly reduce the workload of a complementary GC–MS method.

Published: December 2022

One of the fundamental human rights include the right to healthy, affordable and sustainable food. Following the increase in environmental concerns, people especially in urban areas are looking for healthier, sustainable lifestyle alternatives. While the increase in demand for organic food might seem like an up-market fad, for most consumers of organic foods, the market place offers dilemma. There is an almost lack of information about what do organic labels signify, how to interpret these and which organic food actually deliver safety. This paper is a pilot study to understand consumer perception about organic food labels. The study is carried out on sample respondents belonging to different regions of Maharashtra State, India. Results obtained from this study will be used for a bigger study in this regard. It seems to be in line with the consumer behaviour model presented by Kotler and Keller (2012). Consumers’ psychological characteristics influences the way they perceive organic labels. The study focuses only on the fact that, how perception about labels of organic food products, as a standalone factor, influences buying decision of consumers, irrespective of changes in other factors. We consider how personal, cultural and social factors influence integration of label’s meaning for consumers.
Leveraging Economic Growth: A SWOT Analysis
Authors: Char Sudhanva
Published: December 2022

India accounted for 30 percent or more of World GDP a little over a thousand years ago, a level no other country has attained anytime in history. Then came China’s rise, and the pillages and plunders of invaders who literally raided India. The European colonizers came soon thereafter, continuing the loot of India more systematically. Today China has made up for lost growth and has emerged as the second largest economy in the world. India, under a democratic political framework with some devious and corrupt political actors, is struggling to make progress. The last five years has witnessed much nationalistic fervor and generated new hopes of capturing the ancient and historic economic aura and governance, and making more swift progress plausible despite COVID-19. This SWOT analysis, lists and discusses factors that encourage entertaining hopes of rapid growth. It also highlights constraints shackling even modest progress. Inspiring leadership can help realize the inner economic tiger that could enable a 10-12% annual growth for at least next ten years.
Group-affiliated Firms and audit fees: Evidence from India
Authors: Parkash Mohinder , Singhal Rajeev , Zhu Yun Ellen
Published: December 2022

This study analyzes the role of auditors and affiliation to a business group in corporate governance of firms by examining the audit fees charged to group-affiliated and independent firms. Agency problems in firms may be mitigated by the monitoring provided by controlling investors of firms affiliated to business groups. On the other hand, concentrated ownership may also result in higher agency costs because of inefficient profit distributions, tunneling, and complicated ownership structures. Audit fees are determined by the effort expended and the risks faced by auditors. We examine the relationship between audit fees and Group-affiliation for Indian firms. We find that the audit fees paid to BigN auditors are lower for Group-affiliated firms than non-Group-affiliated firms, but audit fees paid to non-BigN auditors are significantly higher for Group-affiliated and non-Group-affiliated firms, consistent with the idea that BigN auditors recognize the role of Group-affiliation in mitigating the agency conflicts.
