Interrelationship between inventory management and return on equity: an empirical assessment of Sri Lankan beverage, food and tobacco sector listed companies
Authors: Sritharan V.
Published: November 2021

A crucial role plays by Inventory management in balancing the cost and benefits linked with holding inventory. In the inventory management literature, several studies have been carried out regarding maintaining inventory level in a firm has been widely studied even though still there is contradiction in viewing inventory as both an asset and a liability. Few of those studies on the microeconomic determinants and consequences of inventories are somewhat inconsistent, thus this study take intention to test this issue with Beverage Food and Tobacco sector listed Companies. The methods of descriptive quantitative and Linear Regression Analysis are used in this study. The variables of inventory conversion period, operating cycle, current ratio, cash conversion cycle and return on equity are considered. Data from 2012 to 2016 was gathered as panel data from 20 firms’ annual reports of beverage food and tobacco sector for the analysis. The results expose that, operating cycle has a positive significant relationship however cash conversion cycle negatively related with dependent variable of return on equity, but other variables haven’t significant relationship with dependent variable of return on equity. In case of regression analysis result, it says inventory management has 0.158 significant impact on return on equity at 5% level as a whole model but individually operating cycle and inventory conversion period have significant impact. These findings are useful to the directors and financial management of beverage food and tobacco sector’s firms as a useful knowledge for decision makings in this field. So, this sector firms should take great care on all of these measures of inventory management when making policies and developing strategies regarding inventory management of this sector firms to improve their return on equity.

Authors: Jang Gun Ja , Ko Sangjin
Published: November 2021

Purpose: This study examined the effects of a breastfeeding coaching program for mothers on growth and neonatal jaundice in late preterm infants (LPIs).Methods: This was a quasi-experimental study (non-randomized intervention) with a time-series design. The study was conducted among 40 LPIs who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of a university hospital in Daegu, South Korea. In the order of admission, the first 21 infants were assigned to the experimental group, and 19 were assigned to the control group. The intervention program consisted of home- based and web-based practical breastfeeding support education for mothers across a total of 5 sessions. Infant growth was measured using body weight, length, and head circumference, and neonatal jaundice was assessed using transcutaneous bilirubin levels.Results: The likelihood of breastfeeding for infants in the experimental group at 4 weeks after discharge was the same as on the day of discharge, whereas it steadily decreased in the control group. There were significant differences in head circumference between the groups. However, weight, length, and transcutaneous bilirubin levels did not show a significant group-time interaction.Conclusion: A formal breastfeeding coaching program should be considered in clinical settings and at home within the first few weeks postpartum.

Authors: Tandra Vamshidhar Reddy , Kumar Prusty B. Saroj , Jakkani Ravi Kanth , Basit Momin Majed Abdul
Published: October 2021

Boerhaave's syndrome consists of barogenic rupture of the esophagus, in a previously healthy esophagus. This is a rare, serious, and rapidly lethal perforation of the gastrointestinal tract. The outcome essentially depends on early diagnosis and prompt intervention. Due to the scarcity of case reports, no clear consensus exists regarding the best therapeutic approach. Surgical intervention has been mainstay of management, but with advances in therapeutic endoscopy, there has been an increasing interest in nonsurgical options. Here, we report a case of Boerhaave's syndrome in a 40-year-old male patient, diagnosed early and successfully treated nonsurgically with temporary placement of fully covered esophageal stent.

Published: November 2021

Despite the global public health importance of dental caries, it is greatly understudied. This study investigates the incidence and prevalent bacteria species in dental carries among patients attending dental clinic in Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital, Irrua, Nigeria. Patients presenting with signs, symptoms and suspected cases of dental caries attending dental clinic in the hospital between May and July 2017 were recruited. Following standard laboratory procedures, swabs were obtained, morphologically and biochemically analyzed and data subjected to simple statistical analysis. Of the 340 suspected cases, 65.59% were positive for bacteria (25.11% in children and 74.89% in adult). Females were more likely (1.23 times) to be affected and 2.98 times more common in adults than children. The prevalent bacteria isolated was Streptococcus mutans (151; 67.7%), Streptococcus sobrinus (36; 16.4%), Lactobacillus acidophilus (22; 9.9%), Streptococcus salivarius (10; 4.5%) and lastly Streptococcus mitis (4; 1.8%). Biochemical characterization showed isolated Streptococus and Lactobacillus species were non-motile and negative to catalase, citrate, oxidase, indole and urease tests. This study showed the incidence of dental caries is high in the study area and that Streptococcus mutans is the most causative bacteria.
Educating critically about language and intercultural communication: What and who is at stake?
Authors: Crozet Chantal , Mullan Kerry , Qi Jing , Kianpour Masoud
Published: October 2021

This paper reflects on the literature on Critical Language and Intercultural Communication Education in light of learnings gained from designing and delivering a course titled ‘Intercultural Communication’ over four years to large cohorts of first-year tertiary students in Australia. It is based on a qualitative research project which involves the analysis of two sets of data: a) ethnographic notes from teaching staff meetings, tutors’ interviews, and tutorial observation, and b) student formal and informal feedback surveys as well as focus group discussions. The paper explores what and who is at stake when teaching and learning about language and intercultural communication from a critical perspective. It unveils from a praxis perspective (theory informed by practice and vice versa) the deeply political and ethical level of engagement that is required of teachers, the kind of metalinguistic and metacultural knowledge, as well as the kind of disposition towards critical thinking and reflexivity, that are called for when teaching and learning in this domain in an Australian tertiary environment.

Community gynaecology
Authors: Tupper Cathy
Published: November 2021

Community gynaecology is a new subspeciality within gynaecology and encompasses the disciplines of family planning and sexual health. Basic diploma level training is available for postgraduate trainees in primary care and gynaecology, but in addition there is now specialist registrar training over three years for consultant posts in community gynaecology. In addition, the Faculty of Family Planning (www.ffprhc.org.uk) sets and monitors standards and training in primary and secondary care arenas, maintains uniform standards of care with clinical effectiveness guidelines, and provides ongoing accred-itation. Cathy Tupper describes the evolving role of her subspeciality, which has kept many of the aspects of the former family planning services such as walk-in clinics and self-referrals that made the work so variable and the service so accessible.
Group B streptococcus-an update
Authors: Singh Mary
Published: November 2021

Group B streptococcus (GBS) infection has long been recognised as an important cause of neonatal morbidity. It is now known to be the most common serious neonatal infection in the developed world. In the United Kingdom (UK), it is estimated that 1 in 1000 babies develops a GBS infection. A recent London study, however, estimated the incidence of culture-proven plus suspected cases of GBS infection to be significantly higher (approximately 3.6 per 1000 babies born). Despite this, there is no standard of practice in the UK for stopping GBS infections in newborn babies. Mary Singh, specialist registrar at the Royal Lancaster Infirmary, explains.

An Intelligent System to Improve Vocabulary and Reading Comprehension using Eye Tracking and Artificial Intelligence
Authors: Li Harrisson , Gunnell Evan , Sun Yu
Published: November 2021

When reading, many people frequently come across words they struggle with, and so they approach an online dictionary to help them define the word and better comprehend it. However, this conventional method of defining unknown vocabulary seems to be inefficient and ineffective, particularly for individuals who easily get distracted. Therefore, we asked ourselves: “how we could develop an application such that it will simultaneously aim to help define difficult words and improve users’ vocabulary while also minimizing distraction?”. In response to that question, this paper will go in depth about an application we created, utilizing an eye-tracking device, to assist users in defining words, and enhance their vocabulary skills. Moreover, it includes supplemental materials such as an image feature, “search” button, and generation report to better support users' vocabulary.
Advanced Deep Learning Model
Authors: Kee Wong Yew
Published: November 2021

Deep learning is a type of machine learning that trains a computer to perform human-like tasks, such as recognizing speech, identifying images or making predictions. Instead of organizing data to run through predefined equations, deep learning sets up basic parameters about the data and trains the computer to learn on its own by recognizing patterns using many layers of processing. This paper aims to illustrate some of the different deep learning algorithms and methods which can be applied to artificial intelligence analysis, as well as the opportunities provided by the application in various decision making domains.
PlayGuessr: Commercial Application of Machine Learning in Football Play Prediction
Authors: Wu ason , Gunnell Evan , Sun Yu
Published: November 2021

The offensive strategy in American football strives to be enigmatic. A strong offense has a well rounded offensive playbook, rotating offensive plays in attempts to disrupt any predictive patterns. Therefore, it has always been in theinterest of defensive coordinators to offer accurate predictions of the upcoming play to minimize offensive yardage gain. A well advised defense can change its positioning and coverage schemes, given solely whether the next play will be a run or a pass. Although coaches have developed traditional heuristics for tendency-based play prediction, they are limited to patterns discerned by human consciousness.

Published: November 2021

Road traffic accidents are a serious problem for the nation of Botswana. A large amount of money is used to compensate those who are affected by road accidents. Traffic accidents are one of the major causes of Deaths in Botswana. It is important for relevant organizations to have a reliable source of data for accurate evaluation of traffic accidents. Similarly, data on vehicle registration must be transformed and be readily available to assist managerial decision makers. In this article, we deploy a Business Intelligence (BI) and Data Warehouse (DW) solution in an attempt to assist the relevant departments in their road traffic accidents and vehicle registration evaluation. In Our evaluation of the traffic accidents our findings suggest that across accident severity, Damage Only accidents had the most interesting recent trend with a 11.93% decrease in the last 3 years on record. Count of Accident Severity for Damage Only accidents dropped from 13,491 to 11,881 between 2018 and 2020 whilst Minor accidents experienced the longest period of growth. Most accidents take place in rural locations and more accidents take place during the weekend. At 28,439, Sunday had the highest number of accidents and was 47.59% higher than Wednesday, which had the lowest count of accidents at 19,269. The results for vehicle registration reveal that the number of vehicle registration decreased for the last 3 years on record. The number of vehicles registered dropped from 65535 to 24457 during its steepest decline between 2019 and 2021.

THE EVOLUTION OF ORAL REHABILITATION THROUGH IMPLANTONTICS
Authors: Cândido de Lima Alves Diana
Published: November 2021

The scientific article has the theme "The evolution of oral rehabilitation through implantology". The objective of this study is to carry out a literary review on dental implants and to analyze local and systemic factors in the process of osseointegration in oral rehabilitation through dental implants. Our object of study, dental implants, has become an alternative for people who have lost one or more dental elements, and can now count on dental implants that replace the lost dental element. The research problem involves the following questions: Why are there still recurring failures in the osseointegration process? And what does the literature in the area comment and discuss on the topic? This revisionary research is important and justified because, in recent years, we have observed that osseointegration and the installation of implant-supported dental rostheses has become a viable and safe alternative for patients in edentulous situations, specially with regard to rehabilitation procedures. This study hypothesizes that there are still recurrent failures that occur during the period of osseointegration and can be triggered   by several local and systemic factors. A bibliographic research was carried out, researching materials already prepared and documentary research of materials not yet analyzed. The initial methodological procedure was to survey scientific articles and books. It was intended to contribute to the knowledge of science and scientific and academic research in the field of dentistry.
POST-MANDIBULAR FRACTURE OSTEOMYELITIS:
Authors: Mendes Dourado Murilo
Published: November 2021

Osteomyelitis represents an inflammatory entity of the bone tissue with spinal cord involvement. Its etiology is multifactorial, presenting difficult diagnosis and complex treatment, being the prognosis, in most cases, unpredictable. Therefore, it is an inflammation of the medullary spaces caused by the decrease of the blood supply, leading to an ischemia and subsequent necrosis of the bone tissue. Although odontogenic infections are the most commonly involved in the onset of osteomyelitis, other situations also play a relevant role, such as: periodontal diseases, exodontia, and facial trauma. Treatment included combination of antibiotic therapy and surgical procedures. Although correct antibiotic therapy plays an important role in the success of the treatment, the surgical procedure is essential for the removal of the cause and possible bone sequestration formed by the infectious process. The objective of this work is to perform a review of the literature on Osteomyelitis and present two cases of Chronic Suppurative Osteomyelitis that emerged as a complication of mandible fracture. We observed that OSC caused after fracture of face presents clinical characteristics similar to those from odontogenic infection and that the treatment of choice is similar.

Nghiên cứu mô tả cắt ngang được thực hiện trên 323 người nhiễm HIV/AIDS đang điều trị ARV tại Bệnh viện đa khoa thành phố Vinh, tỉnh Nghệ An nhằm mô tả chất lượng cuộc sống và các yếu tố liên quan đến chất lượng cuộc sống của người có HIV tại tỉnh Nghệ An năm 2021. Dữ liệu được thu thập bằng phỏng vấn trực tiếp dựa vào bộ câu hỏi thiết kế sẵn và thang đo lường chất lượng cuộc sống WHOQOL-HIV BREF. Trên thang điểm từ 4 – 20, điểm số chất lượng cuộc sống trung bình của người nhiễm HIV/AIDS trong nghiên cứu này là 14,5 ± 1,8, điểm số chất lượng cuộc sống cao nhất ở lĩnh vực sức khỏe thể chất (15,4 ± 2,6) và mức độ độc lập (15,4 ± 2,4), thấp nhất ở lĩnh vực quan hệ xã hội (13,4 ± 2,1). Giới tính, nghề nghiệp, trình độ học vấn và sống chung với người khác là các yếu tố liên quan đến các lĩnh vực cụ thể của chất lượng cuộc sống của người nhiễm HIV. Nam giới, trình độ học vấn thấp hơn làm tăng điểm số lĩnh vực niềm tin cá nhân; Thất nghiệp là yếu tố làm giảm chất lượng cuộc sống ở nhiều lĩnh vực; Sống chung với người khác là yếu tố làm cải thiện điểm số ở lĩnh vực sức khỏe tinh thần.

Điều trị bằng thuốc kháng Retrovirus (ARV) là phương pháp hiệu quả nhất với người nhiễm HIV/AIDS. Mục tiêu nghiên cứu nhằm xác định tỷ lệ tuân thủ điều trị (TTĐT) ARV và mô tả một số yếu tố liên quan của bệnh nhân HIV/AIDS. Nghiên cứu sử dụng thiết kế nghiên cứu mô tả cắt ngang, kết hợp định lượng và định tính trên 152 bệnh nhân đang điều trị bằng thuốc ARV tại phòng khám ngoại trú - Trung tâm Phòng chống HIV/AIDS tỉnh Quảng Bình. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy tỷ lệ tuân thủ điều trị trong một tuần qua là 69,1%. Các yếu tố ảnh hưởng đến không TTĐT bao gồm tác dụng phụ của thuốc (OR = 3,21; 95% KTC: 1,03 - 9,96); không tái khám đúng hẹn (OR = 2,89; 95% KTC: 1,23 - 6,67); kiến thức không đạt về điều trị và TTĐT (OR = 2,41; 95% KTC: 1,06 - 5,50); không sử dụng biện pháp nhắc thuốc (OR = 2,6; 95% KTC: 1,05 - 6,41) và tần suất nhận thông tin không thường xuyên (OR = 3,55; 95% KTC: 1,46 - 8,61). Tỷ lệ TTĐT ARV vẫn còn thấp, do đó, cán bộ y tế cần khuyên bệnh nhân tới khám điều trị đúng hẹn, chú trọng nâng cao hiểu biết về TTĐT, các biện pháp hỗ trợ uống thuốc, tác dụng phụ thường xuất hiện và các biện pháp xử trí phù hợp để thực hiện đúng kế hoạch điều trị.

Abstract. Non-Gaussian forecast error is a challenge for ensemble-based data assimilation (DA), particularly for more nonlinear convective dynamics. In this study, we investigate the degree of the non-Gaussianity of forecast error distributions at 1 km resolution using a 1000-member ensemble Kalman filter, and how it is affected by the DA update frequency and observation number. Regional numerical weather prediction experiments are performed with the SCALE (Scalable Computing for Advanced Library and Environment) model and the LETKF (local ensemble transform Kalman filter) assimilating phased array radar observations every 30 s. The results show that non-Gaussianity develops rapidly within convective clouds and is sensitive to the DA frequency and the number of assimilated observations. The non-Gaussianity is reduced by up to 40 % when the assimilation window is shortened from 5 min to 30 s, particularly for vertical velocity and radar reflectivity.
Using feature-based verification methods to explore the spatial and temporal characteristics of the 2019 chlorophyll-a bloom season in a model of the European Northwest Shelf

Published: November 2021

Abstract. Two feature-based verification methods, thus far only used for the
diagnostic evaluation of atmospheric models, have been applied to compare
∼7 km resolution pre-operational analyses of chlorophyll-a
(Chl-a) concentrations to a 1 km gridded satellite-derived Chl-a
concentration product. The aim of this study was to assess the value of
applying such methods to ocean models. Chl-a bloom objects were identified in
both data sets for the 2019 bloom season (1 March to 31 July). These bloom
objects were analysed as discrete (2-D) spatial features, but also as
space–time (3-D) features, providing the means of defining the onset,
duration and demise of distinct bloom episodes and the season as a whole. The new feature-based verification methods help reveal that the model
analyses are not able to represent small coastal bloom objects, given the
coarser definition of the coastline, also wrongly producing more bloom
objects in deeper Atlantic waters. Model analyses' concentrations are
somewhat higher overall. The bias manifests itself in the size of the model
analysis bloom objects, which tend to be larger than the satellite-derived
bloom objects. The onset of the bloom season is delayed by 26 d in the
model analyses, but the season also persists for another month beyond the
diagnosed end. The season was diagnosed to be 119 d long in the model
analyses, compared to 117 d from the satellite product. Geographically,
the model analyses and satellite-derived bloom objects do not necessarily
exist in a specific location at the same time and only overlap
occasionally.

Abstract. This work presents a high-fidelity shape optimization framework based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The presented work is the first comprehensive curved tip shape study of a wind turbine rotor to date using a direct CFD-based approach. Preceeding the study is a thorough literature survey particularly focused on wind turbine blade tips in order to place the present work in its context. Then follows a comprehensive analysis to quantify mesh dependency and to present needed mesh modifications ensuring a deep convergence of the flow field at each design iteration. The presented modifications allow the framework to produce up to 6 digit accurate finite difference gradients which are verified using the machine accurate Complex-Step method. The accurate gradients result in a tightly converged design optimization problem where the studied problem is to maximize power using 12 design variables while satisfying constraints on geometry as well as on the bending moment at 90 % blade length. The optimized shape has about 1 % r/R blade extension, 2 % r/R flapwise displacement, and slightly below 2 % r/R edgewise displacement resulting in a 1.12 % increase in power. Importantly, the inboard part of the tip is de-loaded using twist and chord design variables as the blade is extended ensuring that the baseline steady-state loads are not exceeded. For both analysis and optimization an industrial scale mesh resolution of above 14 · 106 cells is used which underlines the maturity of the framework.

Usualmente, a malária se manifesta como uma tríade clássica de sintomas, podendo evoluir para formas graves, sendo a malária cerebral a mais letal das complicações da doença causada pelo Plasmodium falciparum. Pesquisas em modelos experimentais ajudam a compreender os diversos mecanismos de evolução, tratamentos, aspectos genéticos e moleculares e déficits cognitivo-comportamentais associados à malária cerebral. Nossa equipe vem desenvolvendo, no Laboratório de Pesquisa em Malária do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Fiocruz (LPM, IOC, Fiocruz), estudos sobre o efeito de estímulos imunes no comportamento animal, com foco no comprometimento da memória e na manifestação de ansiedade, relatados como associados mesmo a formas não graves de malária em humanos. A estratégia adotada, o uso de modelos experimentais murinos suscetíveis ao desenvolvimento de malária cerebral, os estudos em perspectiva pelo nosso grupo e outros aspectos relacionados são abordados nesse breve sobrevoo da literatura específica recente.

This research was motivated by the fact that the number of sales of food and beverages in railroad restaurants is still very small and can still be increased considering all the potentials of the company. It takes the right strategy in order to increase sales at railroad restaurants. However, before formulating this strategy, it is necessary to study the factors that influence sales in railroad restaurants. This study aims to analyze the variables of the schedule, duration, and class of travel on sales at the Kereta Api Restaurant (RESKA). The method used to process the data is Structural Equation Modeling (SEM)-PLS version 3.0. The results showed that the train travel schedule had a significant and positive effect on sales at the Railway Restaurant. While other variables have no significant effect. Therefore, to improve the sales performance of railroad restaurants, programs and product innovations related to train travel schedules are needed, so as to improve sales performance, both sales of heavy food, snacks and drinks at Railway Restaurants.

Keywords: train journey duration, train travel class, train journey length, train restaurant sales, SEM.
