Published: October 2020

Introducción: Para los estudiantes, la transición de un establecimiento educativo a la universidad constituye un cambio importante, tanto en términos sociales como académicos, lo cual puede afectar la salud mental, considerando las exigencias académicas, las dificultades en el aprendizaje, la adquisición de nuevas competencias para el desarrollo profesional, autogestión de horario, inserción en un nuevo ambiente educativo, entre otras.Objetivo: Determinar los niveles de estrés, depresión y ansiedad en estudiantes universitarios de primer año de las áreas de salud, relacionándolos con el rendimiento académico.Método: Se utilizó un diseño cuantitativo, exploratorio, no experimental, descriptivo de corte transversal. La muestra fue no probabilística de 186 estudiantes de una universidad pública del sur de Chile, del departamento de salud, el cual se determinó considerando un nivel de confianza del 95% y un error alfa del 5%. Se aplicó la versión chilena abreviada de las escalas de depresión, ansiedad y estrés DASS – 21, constituida por 21 ítems, con cuatro alternativas de respuesta en formato en escala Likert. El protocolo de investigación realizado fue aprobado por el Comité Ético Científico del Servicio de Salud Del Reloncaví.Resultados: La prevalencia de estos trastornos cuando se muestra de forma agrupada, para el total de los 186 estudiantes consultados; el 29.00% presenta algún trastorno asociado a depresión; el 53.20%, a ansiedad; y el 47.80%, a estrés. Se observó asociación estadísticamente significativa entre las variables ansiedad y rendimiento académico.Conclusiones: Se puede concluir que existe una asociación entre el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes con la variable ansiedad, pero no así con los trastornos estrés y depresión.
The State Response toward the Existence of HTI: An Analysis from Social Movement Study Approach

Published: October 2020

Abstract As a global Islamic political group, Hizb ut-Tahrir (HT) has experienced many kinds of state coercive responses due its ideas that considered radical and threatening the existing modern political systems. In many places, this group has been rejected and criminalized by regimes either in Muslim majority states or in the Western states. The same experience has also been faced by HT in Indonesia that went through the change of state policy from accommodating to repressive approach. This study will focus to elaborate the response of the Indonesian government toward HTI from the lens of social movement studies by using state repression concept. This article uses the explanatory method analysis and collects data mainly from literature. This article argues that the state has used several methods to repress HT such as issuing an extraordinary law in dissolving HTI; intimidating HTI`s supporters and activists and stigmatizing or discrediting HTI image. As the result, in 2017 Indonesian government dissolved HTI, then HTI became one of forbidden organizations in Indonesia.
Audit Committee Accounting Expertise and the Mitigation of Strategic Auditor Behavior
Authors: Hansen James C. , Lisic Ling Lei , Seidel Timothy A. , Wilkins Michael S. 
Published: October 2020

ABSTRACT
Our study is motivated by the theory of credence goods in the auditing setting. We propose that audit committee accounting expertise should reduce information asymmetries between the auditor and the client, thereby limiting auditors' ability to over-audit and under-audit. Consistent with this notion, our results indicate that when audit committees have accounting expertise, clients (1) pay lower fees when changes in standards decrease required audit effort; (2) pay a smaller fee premium in the presence of remediated material weaknesses; and (3) have a reduced likelihood of restatement when audit market competition is high. Our findings in the under-auditing setting generally are strongest among non-Big 4 engagements, consistent with non-Big 4 auditors being less sensitive to market-wide disciplining mechanisms such as reputation, legal liability, and professional regulation. We also provide evidence that the nature of audit committee members' accounting expertise differentially impacts the committee's ability to curtail over- and under-auditing.

Soft Information in the Financial Press and Analyst Revisions
Authors: Bradshaw Mark T. , Lock Brandon , Wang Xue , Zhou Dexin 
Published: October 2020

ABSTRACT
Both sell-side analysts and the media are information intermediaries in capital markets. This study investigates the association between sell-side analyst research and information in firm-specific news coverage. More frequent recent news coverage is associated with stronger market reactions to analysts' research revisions, and primarily explained by soft information in news coverage. The primary result is robust to using both an instrumental variable and a quasi-natural experimental setting to generate exogenous variation in media coverage, alleviating concerns about endogeneity. In addition, using textual analysis, we document that explicit media references in analyst research reports are significantly associated with more frequent analyst revisions and stronger market reactions to revisions. Our study provides empirical evidence of analysts' assimilation of information from the financial press and their role in the efficiency of capital markets.

Cost Structure, Operating Leverage, and CDS Spreads
Authors: Bhojraj Sanjeev , Bloomfield Robert J. , Jang Youngki , Yehuda Nir 
Published: October 2020

ABSTRACT
We provide evidence that credit investors do not fully impound the implications of firms' cost structure (or operating leverage) when pricing credit default swaps. Information about firms' cost structure is not disclosed and needs to be estimated. Furthermore, the performance implications of firms' cost structure depend on the expected macroeconomic conditions. We focus on the debt market because of the strong emphasis of this market on downside risk. To measure expected aggregate macroeconomic conditions, we employ the change in the anxious index (AI), which is the probability of a decline in real GDP provided by the SPF—the survey of professional forecasters. We find that the interaction between the firm's cost structure and change in AI predicts one-quarter-ahead CDS spreads. Portfolio-level analysis confirms this result.

Strategic Timing of IPOs and Disclosure: A Dynamic Model of Multiple Firms
Authors: Aghamolla Cyrus , Guttman Ilan 
Published: October 2020

ABSTRACT
We study a dynamic timing game between multiple firms, who decide when to go public in the presence of possible information externalities. A firm's IPO pricing is a function of its privately observed idiosyncratic type and the level of investor sentiment, which follows a stochastic, mean-reverting process. Firms may wish to delay their IPOs in order to observe the market reception of the offerings of their peers. We characterize the unique symmetric threshold equilibrium, whereby pioneer firms with high idiosyncratic types endogenously emerge. The results provide novel implications regarding variation in IPO timing, sequential clustering, IPO droughts, the composition of new issues over time, and how IPO volume fluctuates over time. These include, among others, that in more populated industries, a lower proportion of firms emerge as industry pioneers, but follower IPO volume is intensified. Additionally, heightened uncertainty over investor sentiment exacerbates delay and leads to lower IPO volume.
False-positive high sensitivity troponin I on Alinity i
Authors: Kanani Fatima Zehra , Kazmi Adnan Haider 
Published: October 2020

Background:
High sensitivity troponin I (Hs troponin I) is a precise and sensitive marker of myocardial injury. However, interferences by antibodies are not uncommon in immunoassays. Macrotroponin is one such phenomenon, in which immune complexes are formed between troponin and circulating antibodies, giving rise to false-positive results.

Case Presentation:
This is a case of a 30-year-old male with elevated high sensitivity troponin I results of 419 ng/l (99th percentile upper reference limit for males is 34.2 ng/l). The test was performed on Abbott Alinity i immunoassay analyzer (Abbott Gmbh & Co. KG, Wiesbaden, Germany). Electrocardiogram, exercise tolerance test, and echocardiogram were all unremarkable. The results of creatinine kinase-myocardial component, troponin T, and conventional troponin I on VITROS ECi Immunodiagnostics System (Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics, Rochester, NY) were within normal limits. Laboratory experiments were carried out to evaluate the case, and the investigations conducted indicated the presence of macrotroponins in the specimen, which demonstrated cross immunoreactivity with the Alinity (Abbott) assay but not with the VITROS (Ortho) assay.

Conclusion:
Clinicians and laboratorians should be aware of the possible interference by macrotroponin in their assays and should be alerted when there is a discordance between the laboratory and clinical findings.

Authors: Kulkarni Praveen , Kumar D. Sunil , Hugara Siddalingappa , Manjunath Renuka , Murthy M. R. Narayana 
Published: October 2020

Objectives:
Dengue, among all the vector-borne diseases, continues to be a major public health problem in India. Dengue once considered being problem in urban areas, now it is increasingly found in rural areas. Thus, empowering the village level functionaries like members of Village Health Sanitation and Nutrition Committee (VHSNC) can help in prevention and control of dengue in the rural areas. The present study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of educational intervention on perception regarding dengue and its prevention among VHSNC members.

Material and Methods:
This prospective interventional study was conducted among all 305 VHSNC members of two randomly selected primary health centers of Mysuru talukas for the period of 6 months. Baseline levels of perception on dengue were collected using a pre-tested structured questionnaire. Educational intervention on various domains of dengue and its prevention was provided using audiovisual aids, handouts, and group discussion. Endline survey was conducted 1 month after the education sessions to assess the effectiveness intervention.

Results:
A total of 305 VHSNC members participated in the study. In pre-test survey, only 189 (61.9%) had ever heard of disease dengue. In post-test survey, 274 (91.3%) had heard of dengue. There was a statistically significant improvement in perception regarding, preventable nature of dengue, mode of transmission, breeding and biting habits of mosquito, source reduction measures, and personal protective measures against mosquito bites following educational intervention.

Conclusion:
Educational intervention was found to be effective in empowering village level stake holders like VHSNC members regarding dengue and its prevention.
The Relative Electron Acceptor Abilities of the NO2, NO and CHO Groups and Their Application to the NBO-TS Torquoselectivity
Authors: Yadav Veejendra 
Published: October 2020

As against the long held notion in the prediction of torquoselectivity, the relative p- and s-acceptor abilities of NO2, NO and CHO are demonstrated to decrease in the order NO2 > NO > CHO from a combination of different computational parameters.In systems such as 3-NO2/NO/CHO-cyclobutenes, sC3C4→p*NO and sC3C4→p*CO interactions in the transition states leading to inward or outward opening of the ring are significant. These interactions during the inward opening are much larger than in the outward opening of the three instances discussed herein.
Поширення, екологія та поведінка бобра річкового (Castor fiber L.) в околицях сіл Губин та Тумин Локачинського району Волинської області
Authors: Omelkovets Yaroslav , Skakun Olga 
Published: October 2020

Дослідження проводили в околицях сіл Губин і Тумин Локачинського району Волинської області. Поблизу с. Губин на річці Війниця виявлено поселення бобра річкового чисельністю 14–16 особин; у нижній течії меліоративного каналу, що впадає в неї, – поселення з 10–12 особин; одне нежиле – у верхній течії каналу. Поселення в околицях с. Тумин на річці Турія налічує приблизно 34–40 особин. Поселення бобрів на річках Війниця й Турія завдяки розміщенню неподалік лісових масивів краще забезпечені кормами та менше потерпають від посухи, ніж те, що знаходиться на меліоративному каналі. У поселенні на річці Війниця серед жител переважають хатки, а на річці Турія та меліоративному каналі – нори. Фактором, який лімітує поширення бобра річкового на досліджуваній території, є зростання посушливості клімату.

Authors: Shrestha Pramesh Sunder , Shrestha Ninadini , Shrestha Anil , Amatya Roshana , Shakya Bigen Man , Karki Bipin 
Published: October 2020

Background: Regional anaesthesia are widely utilized in surgical gynaecology practice. The Com­bined Spinal Epidural Anaesthesia (CSEA) technique and Continuous epidural anaesthesia both have been extensively used in elective gynaecological surgeries. This prospective cross-sectional comparative study was designed to compare the quality of anaesthesia between CSEA and Epi­dural anaesthesia.
Methods: Sixty-four patients between age group 15- 65 years of ASA grade I, II were randomly di­vided into 2 groups. Group A patients received CSEA using “double needle double interspace tech­nique” and were given 2.5 ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine for spinal block. Group B patients received epidural block with catheter using 10 ml of 0.5% plain bupivacaine. In all patients, subse­quent dosage of 2 ml per unblocked segment 0.5% plain bupivacaine was administered through the epidural catheter to achieve a block up to T4-5. Mean was calculated using t-test, median with Mann Whitney U test and Chi-square test where appropriate and the Statistical Analysis was done using SPSS program, version 11.0.
Results: The surgical anaesthesia and motor blockade occurred significantly early in CSEA group. Duration of analgesia was significantly shorter in CSEA (84.1±40.6 min) as compared to epidural group (138.6±32.9 min). The total amount of bupivacaine required to attain the same target level was two times in epidural group (p<0.05). Haemodynamic changes were comparable in both the groups. No neurological side effects were observed.
Conclusions: Sequential CSEA is superior alternative to epidural block, which combines the advan­tages of spinal and epidural while minimizing their drawbacks in elective gynaecological surgeries.

Authors: Dhungel Safal , Singh Ashutosh Kumar 
Published: October 2020

Background: Isolated zygomatic arch fractures, managed by closed methods, can be inadequate leading to facial asymmetry. Assessment of the reduction and ensuring correct alignment of frac­tured fragments in the operation table always avoids next surgery. This study aims to determine intraoperative, adequacy of reduction of by use of ultrasound in isolated zygomatic arch fracture.
Methods: During the closed reduction of isolated zygomatic arch linear probe of ultrasound was used to check the continuity of the echogenic line. The intraoperative ultrasound finding was com­pared with the gold standard CT scan.
Results: Ultrasound has 100% sensitivity and 80 % specificity. It also has high precision and accu­racy to determine the reduction of the fractured bone.
Conclusions: Ultrasound is a handy tool in the reduction of zygomatic arch fracture. It not only shows but also guides to adequate reduction.

Authors: Bista Archana Pandey , Sharma Kalpana , Tamrakar Neeta , Sharma Muna , Bhattarai Tilrupa 
Published: October 2020

Background: Student’s positive perception towards the academic environment determines the quality of education. This study aimed at finding students’ perception on educational environ­ment of the postgraduate nursing programme of Nepal.
Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional design was conducted among 104 masters level nursing stu­dents from four selected nursing campuses under Institute of Medicine, Tribhuvan University. Enu­merative sampling technique was used to select the sample. Data were collected using validated standard tool Dundee Ready Educational Environment Measure (DREEM) scale and analyzed using descriptive statistics.
Results: Most of the nursing students (81.7%) had positive level of perception on their educational environment and few had excellent perception. Total DREEM mean score was 134.37± 21 out of 200. Specifically, mean score of learning was 31.93 ± 5.1 out of 48, students’ perception of teachers was 30.02 ± 5.072 out of 44; students’ academic self-perception was 22.32 ± 3.54 out of 32; students’ perception of atmosphere was 32.26±5.1 out of 48 and mean score for students social self-perception was 17.82± 3.3 out of 28. Lower mean score < 2.0 was identified on teaching factual learning, oppor­tunities to memorize learning, supporting during stress, time management of programs, well prepara­tion for classes and student’s self-perception.
Conclusions: The findings indicate more positive perception on educational environment among post­graduate nursing students. Still some aspects such as teaching factual learning, memorizing learning, supportive students during stress, and social environment need to be emphasized to enhance the students’ educational environment of post-graduate nursing program by the academic institution.
