Working capital management and financial performance of non financial quoted companies in Nigeria
Authors: Abbas Ibrahim Umar , Isiaka Abdulqadir
Published: May 2021

This study examines the effect of working capital management on the financial performance of Non-financial companies quoted on the Nigerian Stock Exchange over the period 2014 – 2018 while using a panel research design. This work is unique because it considers a sample of 71 companies drawn from all the 10 non-financial sectors of the NSE. Unlike most extant studies, financial performance was captured by earnings per share as a proxy, while the right-hand side variable being working capital management was denominated by Accounts receivable period, Inventory turnover period, and Accounts payable period. This study also considered the effect of some control variables namely annual capital expenditure, age of firm, GDP,  firm size, growth of the company, and firm leverage on EPS.  Data were retrieved from the Nigerian Stock Exchange 2019 Factbook. The model estimation technique adopted was the Pooled Ordinary Least Squares, fixed effect, and random-effect methods. Results from this study are consistent with the theoretical position that all aspects of working capital management have a significant effect on financial performance. While ITP and ACP were negatively related to EPS, APP was found to have a positive relationship with EPS. The research results also reveal that although all the control variables were found to be significant, only the age of the firm was deemed to be positively related to EPS. Based on the findings, the research recommends that firms should focus their managerial attention on lowering their ITP and ACP while increasing their APP, as results indicate that management of these elements of working capital can translate into liquidity and higher profitability.

Online reviews play a significant role in supporting consumers to make purchase decisions across provided platforms. Many studies examine the characteristics of online reviews and their impacts, nevertheless, only a few studies examine the perceived value from online reviews. This study provides the integration view by utilizing the systematic approach to synthesize 36 academic papers out of 661 searched papers between January 1st, 2011, and December 22nd, 2019.  The contribution of researchers in studying the perceived value is increasing significantly and continuously since 2018.  There are two main types of online reviews regardless of online platforms: Expert-written reviews and customer-written reviews. Perceived values can be derived from online review and be transmitted to online review simultaneously upon the content of studies. The framing of questions for a review focus on five key questions and to illustrate by providing the mind mapping of perceived value to reveal components and relationship among them. The finding emphasizes the research contents of existing research and research allocation, analysis of techniques used, theories, methodologies used, implications in different industrial sectors to enhance the understanding of this relevant information, ambiguous meanings, and development of areas that lack attention in the past decade.

Enhancing food security through home gardening in urbanizing environment in Machakos County, Kenya
Authors: Huho Julius , Muriuki Margaret
Published: May 2021

Kenya is rapidly urbanizing at an annual rate of about 4.3%. One of the consequences of urbanization has been the problem of food insecurity in peri-urban areas. Increased migration to urban from rural areas has enhanced food insecurity in these areas. The peri-urban area of Kangundo-Tala in Machakos County is one of the fastest-growing peri-urban areas due to its proximity to the capital city of Nairobi. This study investigated the impact of home gardening in enhancing food security in the rapidly urbanizing middle-income Kangundo–Tala peri-urban areas of Machakos County, Kenya. The specific objectives of the study were: to identify the causes of households’ food insecurity in the study area; to examine the factors influencing the adoption of home gardening and; to establish the role of home gardening as a measure of households’ food security. To measure food security, three consumption behaviors were analyzed: consumption changes, food expenditure reduction and income expansion. A qualitative approach was adopted where a total of 120 newly settled households were interviewed. The three main causes of food insecurity were identified (i) small land sizes, (ii) low and erratic rainfall and, (iii) the socialization of peri-urban dwellers. About 68% of the households were practicing at least one form of home gardening. The need for safe and nutritious food, seasonal unavailability, and inaccessibility of food encouraged the establishment of home gardens. From the gardens, households were able to diversify their diets, access safe food and have food readily available. With enhanced stability in food availability, accessibility, and utilization, the study concluded that home gardens played a major role in enhancing food. However, the production was at a very small scale. Up-scaling of home gardening by the Ministry of Agriculture through training was recommended.

Published: May 2021

The main objective of this study is to investigate the impact of external funding flow on Jordan’s GDP (1997 – 2017) focusing on variables such as; grants (GR), soft loans (LN), foreign direct investment (FDI), and the Jordanian migrant worker's remittances (JMWR) on Jordan's GDP which represent the dependent variable through using the E -Views statistical program and multiple regressions analysis. Previous studies showed the significant and non-significant impacts of the flow of external funding on the economy. In this study the researchers analyzed the impact of external funding flow on Jordan's GDP for the period (1997-2017) and found that grants (GR) and foreign direct investment (FDI) have a statistically significant impact on Jordan's GDP; in contrast, soft loans (LN) and the Jordanian migrant’s worker’s remittances (JMWR) have no statistically significant impact on Jordan's GDP for the same period. This study filled the gap and expanded the analysis to test whether there is an impact of grants independently of the soft loans on Jordan’s GDP and vice versa, in addition, the study investigated the impact of other variables such as; foreign direct investment (FDI), and the Jordanian migrant worker's remittances (JMWR).

Published: May 2021

Multidimensional well-being is an important method for understanding the social functioning of communities affected by the Pak Mun Dam, 26 years after its construction. This is the first quantitative research on the well-being of these communities. In six of eight well-being dimensions, the more distant communities are faring better than those in close proximity to the dam. Furthermore, 24 of 40 items that represent each dimension have statistically significant lower means in the affected community. This result shows the long-lasting nature of negative effects on communities and without appropriate policy action, negative impacts will linger preventing developmental progress from occurring.
Benevolent paternalistic leadership behavior and follower's radical creativity
Authors: Nabi Nurun , Liu Zhiqiang
Published: May 2021

The present study investigates the follower's voice behavior (FVB) as a mediator and follower power distance orientation (FPDO) as a moderator in relationship with Benevolent Paternalistic Leadership Behavior (BPLB) and followers' radical creativity (FRC) with an Asian context based on the social exchange and social learning theory. The study is quantitative and deductive, which surveyed 272 manufacturing industry leaders-followers used to collect the data. Findings show that BPLB with higher follower’s voice behavior directly or indirectly enhances the FRC. When the leader-follower collaborative exchange or interactions are high/low, followers' responsibility and accountability are also high/low, which determines follower’s radical creativity. In contrast, the leader-follower relationship is obfuscated and blinded when the leader's subordinates' cooperative voice engagement or involvement is low congruously. Manufacturing industries should engage in leadership training that can promote creativity and innovation. Although considering the limitation and the study provides the theoretical, managerial, and practical implication for the managers, policymakers, governmental authority, and society
Capital structure, market conditions and financial performance of small and medium enterprises in Buganda Region, Uganda
Authors: Mugisha Henry , Omagwa Job , Kilika James
Published: May 2021

Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SMEs) continue to be major players in the economic growth of Uganda as well as many of the emerging economies. The Uganda Investment Authority had projected 5.5% economic growth by 2030 in anticipation of stable market conditions necessary for the sustained financial performance of SMEs. However, the business failure rate of SMEs in Uganda had persistently revolved around 70% in 2018 from 50% in 2004. This problem had been linked to the turbulent market conditions characterized by intensive competition as well as volatile consumption behavior of the customers. Empirical literature indicates that competitive intensity, as well as volatile customer demand, presents a negative impact on financial performance. Hence, the study sought to determine the moderating effect of market conditions on the capital structure-financial performance relationship of SMEs in Uganda. From a population of 218,561 SMEs, a sample of 453 respondents was selected out of which, 423 responded to the questionnaire. Primary data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple regression techniques. The hypothesis was tested at a 0.05 level of significance. Findings indicated that Market conditions had a positive and significant moderating effect on the capital structure-financial performance relationship (?= 0.175 and p = -0.027). We conclude that market conditions can strengthen/ weaken the effect of capital structure on the financial performance of SMEs. We recommend that SMEs should evaluate the market conditions during the process of deciding the financing mix for their operations to optimize the impact of capital structure on financial performance

As many research works show, vitamin D has pleiotropic effects, including the immune regulation and pathogenesis of Crohn’s disease. Therefore, concentrations of the active vitamin D metabolite might be associated with the development, progression and severity of the disease. The skeletal and extraskeletal effects of vitamin D are realised through its active metabolite – 1.25(OH)2D, which is a steroid hormone. The objective of the work: to analyse the accumulated evidence demonstrative of a multiple contribution of vitamin D in the pathogenesis of Crohn’s disease, and to determine the possible perspectives of using the vitamin as part of comprehensive therapy of this disease. Despite the fact, that data of in vitro and animal studies are demonstrative of multiple effects of vitamin D in the pathogenesis of Crohn’s disease, the currently available evidence based on the underlying clinical trials are insufficient yet for including vitamin D in clinical guidelines on management of Crohn’s disease. Further research work is necessary. Key words: Crohn’s disease, vitamin D, calciferol, vitamin D axis, extraskeletal effects

Breast milk is the best nutrition for an infant. When breastfeeding is not possible, it is critical to choose an infant milk formula that functionally resembles breast milk effects. The current strategy in the industry of human milk substitutes is aimed at modulating gut microbiota via functional components of the «biotic» family (pre-, pro-, syn-, postbiotics). The most scientific interest lies in the area of numerous prebiotic oligosaccharides of human milk (HMOs). It is possible to combine several prebiotic oligosaccharides with different structures and mechanisms of action in infant formula designed to reproduce the compound effects of HMOs. In this regard, the best studied scGOS/lcFOS (9:1) receive more and more evidence of the efficiency and synergistic action with other prebiotic oligosaccharides. The special class of functional components – postbiotics – was described due to recent discoveries in milk base fermentation process. One of the most promising among them is 3’-galactosyllactose (3’-GL). 3’-GL is produced by bacteria during the fermentation process and it is structurally identical to 3’-GL, which is naturally found in colostrum, transitional and mature breast milk. The first results of in vivo and in vitro studies demonstrated the safety and good tolerance, as well as promising local and systemic effects of a formula with 3’-GL, and especially in combination with the scGOS/lcFOS prebiotics (9:1) Key words: human milk substitutes, formula, human milk oligosaccharides, microbiota, biotics, prebiotics, postbiotics, 3’-GL, 3-galactosyllactose

Background:

A better understanding of early pain trajectories (patterns) following scoliosis surgery and how they relate to baseline patient characteristics and functional outcomes may allow for the development of mitigating strategies to improve patient outcomes.

Methods:

This was a prospective cohort study. Adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis were recruited across multiple centers. Latent growth mixture modeling techniques were used to determine pain trajectories over the first postoperative year.

Results:

The median numerical rating scale for pain in the hospital following surgery for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis was 5.0. It improved to 1.0 by 6 weeks, and was maintained at <1 by 3 to 12 months postoperatively. Three trajectories were identified, 2 of which involved moderate acute postoperative pain: 1 with good resolution and 1 with incomplete resolution by 1 year. The third trajectory involved mild acute postoperative pain with good resolution by 1 year. Membership in the “moderate pain with incomplete resolution” trajectory was predicted by higher baseline pain and anxiety, and patients in this trajectory reported worse quality of life than those in the trajectories with good resolution.

Conclusions:

Pain recovery following surgery for idiopathic scoliosis was found to be substantial during the first 6 weeks and continued up to 1 year. We identified 3 main trajectories, 2 with favorable outcomes and 1 with persistent pain and worse quality of life at 1 year postoperatively. The risk factors most associated with the latter trajectory included increased baseline pain and anxiety.

Prognostic Level II. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Background:

Antiretroviral therapy (ART) remains the cornerstone of decreasing morbidity and mortality in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), but additional information on its impact on total hip arthroplasty (THA) complication rates is needed to mitigate risks postoperatively. Therefore, we sought to examine patients with HIV who were and were not taking ART compared with a cohort without HIV in the setting of primary THA with respect to the following outcomes: length of stay, readmissions, and postoperative infection.

Methods:

A retrospective database review was performed with PearlDiver for patients who underwent THA from 2010 to 2019 (n = 729,101). Patients with HIV who were and were not taking ART were then identified and were matched with patients without HIV at a 1:1:1 ratio based on age, sex, Charlson Comorbidity Index, diabetes, obesity, and tobacco use, resulting in 601 patients in each cohort. Length of stay, 30-day readmissions, and complications at 90 days and 1 year were analyzed. Continuous outcomes were measured via Student t tests, and categorical outcomes were measured via chi-square analyses.

Results:

Patients with HIV who were and were not taking ART were found to have similar lengths of stay compared with patients without HIV (range, 4.1 to 4.3 days). Readmission rates were slightly higher in patients with HIV who were taking ART at 4.2% (odds ratio [OR], 1.96 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.99 to 3.87]) and patients with HIV who were not taking ART at 3.5% (OR, 1.63 [95% CI, 0.81 to 3.30]) compared with patients without HIV at 2.1%. Periprosthetic joint infection rates at 1 year were slightly higher among patients with HIV who were not taking ART at 5.3% (OR, 1.41 [95% CI, 0.82 to 2.45]) compared with patients with HIV who were taking ART at 4.2% (OR, 1.09 [95% CI, 0.61 to 1.94]) and patients without HIV at 3.8%.

Conclusions:

Patients with HIV who are and are not taking ART are approaching normalization to the general population in the setting of THA. It is important to note that, although complications may have been mitigated by modern therapy, extreme care should be taken while clinically evaluating these patients prior to the surgical procedure given the complexity of their clinical status. The findings of this study underscore the utility of ART and patient optimization to reduce risk in this patient population.

Retos de traducción de las "Terms and Conditions" de las redes sociales: análisis jurídico y terminológico contrastivo inglés-español basado en corpus
Authors: Hernández García Valeria
Published: May 2021

El avance de la informática y de las nuevas tecnologías ha dado lugar a la aparición de una gran variedad de géneros textuales jurídicos en formato electrónico. El presente artículo se ocupa del estudio de las terms and conditions de las redes sociales. Por un lado, se ha realizado una breve aproximación a la definición de red social, así como a la noción de contrato conforme a la legislación española. Además, se han abordado las características generales del inglés jurídico y la figura del contrato tanto en el derecho español como en el derecho anglosajón. Por otro lado, se ha llevado a cabo un análisis contrastivo sobre la terminología jurídica de los textos objeto de estudio. Para ello, como punto de partida, compilamos un corpus ad hoc paralelo a partir de las terms and conditions de trece redes sociales, que se redactaron originariamente en inglés y se tradujeron posteriormente al español. El programa de gestión de corpus empleado fue ParaConc, a través del cual se seleccionaron y analizaron los cinco términos más significativos, que, a su vez, suponen un reto de traducción, a saber: terms, conditions, terms and conditions, termination y under. Dicho análisis incluye tanto el estudio de los conceptos en inglés como sus posibles traducciones al español.

Palabras clave: Redes sociales, Terms and conditions, Retos de traducción, Terminología jurídica, Análisis contrastivo.

Las casas patrimoniales se han convertido en un símbolo histórico-cultural a nivel territorial, incluyendo aquéllas en la que trascienden ideas liberales y propias de los inicios del siglo XX, así como un aire desconocidamente cosmopolita. Con la finalidad de buscar estrategias para fortalecer la actividad turística en el destino se consideró realizar un diagnóstico para medir la percepción de

los turistas que asisten a la localidad referente a sus criterios de las casas patrimoniales y su estado de conservación.El método descriptivo admitió fundamentar criterios partiendo de los resultados arrojados por el REDATAM demostrando que estas construcciones marcaron en el desarrollo cultural de la región y por ende en las casas patrimoniales.El principal resultado es desarrollar planes de contingencias para afrontar estrategias de reconstrucción de las casas patrimoniales para el fortalecimiento de la actividad turística en el destino.

Published: May 2021

El boom turístico de las últimas décadas ha motivado a los gobiernos a enfocarse en impulsar la competitividad turística de sus países y destinos, como un catalizador del desarrollo humano. La presente investigación realiza un análisis comparativo de las diversas variables del Índice de Competitividad Turística Regional de Colombia (ICTRC) desarrollado por el Centro de Pensamiento Turístico (CPTUR), inherentes a la dimensión de Gestión del Destino en 22 territorios de Colombia. Se aplicó el método del análisis de componentes principales para medir la correlación entre 18 variables seleccionadas del ICTRC, que dan cuenta de la gestión de destinos en Colombia. Se identificó que, para mejorar la competitividad turística de los destinos en Colombia, los focos principales deben orientarse hacia la información turística, los eventos terroristas, los niveles de presupuestales, el retorno a la contribución parafiscal y la inclusión del turismo en los planes de desarrollo. Se recomienda que las entidades gubernamentales formulen, implementen y validen procesos a nivel macro y micro en los constructos referidos, con el fin de impactar considerablemente la competitividad turística de los destinos.
