Central Banks and Profitability: A Systematic Literature Review
Authors: Fauziah Mega , Adler Haymans Manurung  , Roy Sembel
Published: June 2024

Abstract: Although the topic of central bank has been studied mainly in relation to the role of monetary authority and financial system regulator, the topic of central bank profit has not yet received much attention because it is difficult to observe central bank profitability due to their nature as public institutions. The review provides evidence from 22 documents, which are then classified into five central bank profitability themes: independence, monetary policy effectiveness, competition, operations and risk, and public finance. We conclude that central bank profitability can be a research agenda as profitability can be perceived as central banks’ financial strength to conduct their responsibility and to maintain their credibility.

Kajian Yuridis Peralihan Kewajiban Kepada Konsumen Setelah Penandatanganan Akta Jual Beli
Authors: Hana Karen , Djaja Benny
Published: June 2024

Pembuatan Perjanjian Pengikatan Jual Beli (PPJB) dan kuasa menjual memberikan perlindungan hukum yang signifikan bagi pembeli. Selain sifat pembuktian yang kuat dan sempurna, ada beberapa manfaat khusus yang diberikan oleh PPJB dan Kuasa menjual, terutama terkait dengan aspek perpajakan dan kepemilikan hukum. Proses peralihan hak atas tanah melalui Kuasa untuk Membebankan Hak Tanggungan (SKMHT) menjadi Akta Pembebanan Hak Tanah (APHT) adalah langkah penting dalam transaksi properti yang membutuhkan perhatian serius, terutama dalam pengaturan waktu yang tepat. SKMHT, ketika tidak ditingkatkan menjadi APHT dalam jangka waktu tertentu, akan menjadi batal demi hukum, menyebabkan kerumitan hukum dan potensi risiko bagi pihak yang terlibat. Dalam konteks ini, penting untuk mempertimbangkan bentuk dan isi Akta Perjanjian Pengikatan Jual Beli Tanah (PPJB) dalam transaksi peralihan hak atas tanah dan/atau bangunan. PPJB merupakan bentuk akta autentik yang dibuat oleh Notaris, yang memberikan hak tanggungan sebagai jaminan pelunasan utang tertentu. Namun, masalah muncul ketika batasan waktu antara SKMHT dan APHT terlalu singkat, sementara waktu yang diperlukan untuk mengurus administrasi lainnya melebihi ketentuan aturan perundang- undangan yang ada. Hal ini menimbulkan kebingungan dan kekhawatiran bagi para pihak yang terlibat dalam transaksi properti. Untuk mengatasi masalah ini, diperlukan adanya aturan yang membatasi jangka waktu dari SKMHT menjadi APHT dengan lebih bijaksana. Aturan tersebut harus mempertimbangkan kompleksitas administrasi yang terlibat dalam proses peralihan hak atas tanah, serta memberikan cukup waktu bagi pihak-pihak terkait untuk menyelesaikan semua persyaratan yang diperlukan.

Integrating Multimodal Deep Learning for Enhanced News Sentiment Analysis and Market Movement Forecasting
Authors: Sudhakar Dubey Abhinav , Singh Mahara Pranav
Published: June 2024

This paper presents a novel multimodal deep learning framework for analyzing news sentiments and forecasting market movements by leveraging natural language processing, deep learning, and auxiliary data sources. Traditional methods often rely solely on textual news data, limiting their predictive power due to the complexity and ambiguity of language. Our approach incorporates additional modalities such as stock prices, social media sentiment, and economic indicators to capture a more comprehensive view of market dynamics. We employ a hybrid deep learning architecture that combines convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for text feature extraction, long short-term memory (LSTM) networks for capturing sequential dependencies, and attention mechanisms to selectively focus on the most relevant features. To address data scarcity, we introduce advanced data augmentation techniques, generating synthetic news headlines based on historical stock price movements and sentiment patterns. The proposed system is evaluated on a comprehensive dataset spanning multiple years, including news headlines, stock prices, social media data, and economic indicators. Our method achieves an accuracy of 77.51%, significantly outperforming traditional methods and demonstrating improved robustness and predictive power. This study highlights the potential of integrating diverse data sources and sophisticated deep learning techniques to enhance news sentiment analysis and market movement forecasting.

Smooth Solutions of the tt* Equation: A Numerical Aided Case Study
Authors:   East China Normal University, P.R. China, Li Yuqi
Published: June 2024

An important special class of the tt* equations are the tt*-Toda equations. Guest et al. have given comprehensive studies on the tt*-Toda equations in a series of papers. The fine asymptotics for a large class of solutions of a special tt*-Toda equation, the case 4a in their classification, have been obtained in the paper [Comm. Math. Phys. 374 (2020), 923-973] in the series. Most of these formulas are obtained with elaborate reasoning and the calculations involved are lengthy. There are concerns about these formulas if they have not been verified by other methods. The first part of this paper is devoted to the numerical verification of these fine asymptotics. In fact, the numerical studies can do more and should do more. A natural question is whether we can find more such beautiful formulas in the tt* equation via numerical study. The second part of this paper is devoted to the numerical study of the fine asymptotics of the solutions in an enlarged class defined from the Stoke data side. All the fine asymptotics of the solutions in the enlarged class are found by the numerical study. The success of the numerical study is largely due to the truncation structures of the tt* equation.

Published: July 2024

Macrobrachium rosenbergii is the freshwater shrimp species of greatest economic interest, and its reproduction has been studied for commercial purposes. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different salinities (0, 6, and 12 mg L-1) on the embryogenesis of this species. The females were observed daily according to their reproductive behavior. Upon the first sign of spawning, when their eggs were attached to the abdomen, they were collected for egg collection and transferred to the incubators at the respectively tested salinities. The eggs were collected every five days for up to 23 days, separated according to their stage of development, histologically processed, and stained for visualization of structural changes during embryogenesis using an optical microscope. From the egg's histological images at different embryonic development stages, the egg hatching time was evaluated, the changes that occurred in the eggs during embryogenesis, the total area of the eggs, the vacuole area, and the ratio between the vacuole area and the total area of the eggs. Differences were observed in hatching time, egg size, and vacuole area and area ratio. The 6 g L-1 of salinity treatment was statistically different from the other in all parameters analyzed. Therefore, it was concluded that 6 g L-1 of salinity positively influenced embryogenesis, as it presented hatches from the 15th day of embryogenesis, demonstrating that there was a greater speed of migration of vitellogenin for the formation of the embryo, accelerating embryogenesis and hatching of M. rosenbergii.

Authors: Estrada-Pérez Nallely , Zavala-Leal Iram , González-Hermoso Juan P. , Ruiz-Velazco Javier M.J.
Published: July 2024

Aquaponics is the cultivation technique that integrates aquaculture with hydroponics. The present work compared two plant production cycles of a hydroponic component of an aquaponic system (tilapia-lettuce-cucumbers) vs. a hydroponic system. The tilapia growth trial lasted 22 weeks in the aquaponic system, during which two plant production cycles -lettuce-cucumber- (seven weeks) were performed. Water quality and environmental variables were recorded, evaluating weight growth and biomass produced in fish rearing. Leaf number, height, and weight were determined in lettuce plants. Stem length and fresh weight were measured in cucumber plants; length, fresh weight, and diameter were determined in cucumber fruit. The results showed that the average tilapia biomass per tank was 33.76 kg m-3 with an average final weight of 592.26 ± 25.45 g fish-1. Lettuce production (plants ha-1) was higher in aquaponics than hydroponics during the first cycle, while in the second one, it was greater in hydroponics. Significant differences (ANOVA, P < 0.05) resulted between treatments in both cucumber production cycles with larger biomass growth in hydroponics than in aquaponics. Cucumber fruit showed larger weight (212.52 ± 18.89 g) and length (14.15 ± 1.75 cm) in hydroponics, thus greater yield (4.97 t ha-1); hydroponics-grown cucumber plants had longer stem lengths (292.51 ± 8.73 cm). In conclusion, the hydroponic system had higher plant production. However, aquaponics provided a double benefit since it produced fish and plants, and the plants used waste from fish rearing without contaminating the environment.

Authors: Bruno Anne-Sophie , Curci Ylenia , Greenan Nathalie
Published: June 2024

Ce data paper présente les étapes de la construction de la base de données CAGE (Collective Agreements for Gender Equality), qui consigne, pour un échantillon représentatif d’entreprises françaises, non seulement une masse d’informations sur les processus de négociation et leurs acteurs, mais aussi, et cet aspect est plus novateur, sur les contenus des accords ou des plans d’action signés en matière d’égalité femmes-hommes au niveau de l’entreprise et de la branche. L’article fournit un guide sur l’information statistique disponible en matière de négociations collectives, qui peut intéresser les chercheurs souhaitant utiliser les données administratives et d’enquête mobilisées dans ce projet. Il est aussi l’occasion de réfléchir aux usages des techniques de fouille de textes sur des données non structurées.

Formal segregation and population distribution in Port Elizabeth
Authors: Christopher A.J.
Published: June 2024

The various segregationist policies adopted by administrations since colonial times have profoundly affected the distribution of the population in Port Elizabeth. An increasing degree of segregation became evident as a result of changing state and private programmes, until the city was transformed in the period from the 1950s to the 1970s from a colonial, 'segregation city' into the modern 'apartheid city'.

Potchefstroom se stigting 1838 of 1839?
Authors: Van der Schyff P.F.
Published: June 2024

Erroneous and/or controversial interpretation of sources played an important pall in the acceptance of 1838 as Potchefstroom's date of establishment. Interest in the pioneering era of the Trekkers across the Vaal River, however, led to new information and a reinterpretation of well-known sources. From these it is evident that Andries Hendrik Potgieter obtained land between the Vet and Vaal rivers in exchange for cattle during June 1838. The registration of farms commenced shortly afterwards. On learning that the Cape government might possibly interfere in the affairs of the Trekkers, Potgieter issued a 'declaration of independence' in early December 1838, according to which Mzilikazi's territory would be occupied. After ascertaining that Mzilikazi had fled from the area, Potgieter decided on a permanent settlement. Various sources of information and circumstantial evidence indicate that Potchefstroom was founded in March/April of 1839, while the first registration of farms only took place on 3 June of that year.
The Relationship between Nutritional and Biochemical Markers with Growth Parameters in Adolescents with Chronic Kidney Disease on Maintenance Dialysis

Published: June 2024

Background:

Adolescents with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing maintenance dialysis often experience challenges related to nutritional and biochemical markers, which can impact their growth parameters. Understanding the association between these markers and growth outcomes is crucial for optimizing the management of CKD in this population.

Objectives of the study:

The objective of this study is to investigate the relationship between nutritional and biochemical markers and growth parameters in adolescents with CKD undergoing maintenance dialysis in a cross-sectional single-center setting.

Methodology:

Participants recruited for this study were children aged 12–18 years diagnosed with CKD 5 undergoing maintenance dialysis. The assessed nutritional and biochemical markers included dry weight, body mass index (BMI), caloric and protein intake, normalized protein catabolic rate (nPCR), total body fat percentage, muscle mass, serum albumin, blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, and C-reactive protein.

Results:

Twenty-six children were enrolled in the study (male: female – 1:1.6). Thirteen participants were from each treatment group (peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis). Among them, twenty (76.9%) exhibited stunting, defined as a height percentile below the third percentile for the group’s population. Notably, patients with stunting showed a significant decrease in dry weight (37.4 kg vs. 54.7 kg, P < 0.01) and BMI (17.3 kg/m2 vs. 22.3 kg/m2, P = 0.03). Serum creatinine levels were notably lower among patients with stunting compared to those with normal height percentiles (728 μmol/L vs. 969 μmol/L, P < 0.01). Using bioelectrical impedance, muscle mass was noted to be significantly reduced in those with stunting compared to children with normal growth. Furthermore, a significant association was observed between nPCR and protein intake (P = 0.010).

Conclusion and Recommendation:

This study reveals a high prevalence of stunting in pediatric CKD patients on maintenance dialysis, suggesting compromised nutritional status. CKD patients with stunting exhibit reduced muscle mass and lower serum creatinine levels. Additionally, nPCR appears to be a useful marker for assessing protein adequacy. These findings highlight the need for early and regular monitoring of growth parameters, comprehensive biochemical assessments, and further research to enhance outcomes in pediatric CKD patients.
Acute Kidney Injury in Children after Cardiac Surgery and Associated Risk Factors

Published: June 2024

Introduction:

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after cardiac surgery, and its occurrence is associated with a worse prognosis and increased mortality. The term cardiac surgery-associated AKI (CSA-AKI) is used to describe the entity. CSA-AKI is independently associated with an increase in short-term morbidity, costs of treatment, and long-term mortality. In this study, we evaluated the frequency of CSA-AKI in an intensive care unit for children undergoing cardiac surgery to examine the prevalence of CSA-AKI and the risk factors contributing to it.

Methods:

This retrospective descriptive cross-sectional study evaluated 73 patients admitted to a single center for cardiac surgery in 2022. Inpatient files were reviewed for patients who underwent surgical procedures for congenital heart disease (CHD) during 2022.

Results:

AKI occurred in 35.6% of children undergoing cardiac surgery. The majority of cases were infants or had cyanotic heart disease (42.5% and 25.8%, respectively).

Conclusions:

Almost one-third of postcardiac surgery patients develop AKI. Monitoring for AKI postoperatively is especially necessary in infants and patients with cyanotic CHD.
Hiatal Hernia-induced Dyspnea in a Patient with Ascites: Leveraging Point-of-care Ultrasound for Accurate Diagnosis
Authors: Krowicki Jéssica Sobreiros , de Azevedo Sofia Moura , Duarte Rodrigo , Mariz José
Published: June 2024

A hiatal hernia (HH) is characterized by the protrusion of the stomach or other abdominal viscera into the mediastinum. The mechanism of increased intra-abdominal pressure is typically associated with this condition. When there are additional contributing factors causing increased abdominal pressure, like ascites resulting from chronic liver disease, it can exacerbate HH symptoms, including dyspnea. The incorporation of point-of-care ultrasonography as an integral component of physical examination enables a precise and objective assessment of dyspnea offering physicians additional clues regarding the underlying etiology. We present a case of a patient who was admitted to the emergency department due to dyspnea and ascites. Through the utilization of point-of-care ultrasound, the diagnosis of an HH was made, identifying it as one of the factors contributing to the patient’s shortness of breath.
