Authors: Arif Muhammad , Laghari Abdul Rauf , Advani Avinash 
Published: May 2020

This study examines the profitability of Moving Averages (MA) timing strategy over the buy and hold strategy for individual stocks listed at Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX). We applied Han, Yang, and Zhou (2013), methodology to individual stock returns and found inconclusive evidence of MA timing strategy’s predictive ability to earn higher returns over buy and hold strategy. We also report market risk-adjusted returns to remove any market movement effects and apply alternative moving averages lag lengths to check the robustness of our results. We observe individual stock returns are noisier than portfolio returns and the simple technical trading rule of moving average lack the ability to predict individual stock returns. We propose the use of more complex trading rules in future studies to ascertain the profitability of technical trading rules in individual stocks.

Abstract
Introduction
Hypertension ofen clusters with other cardiovascular risk factors such as obesity, dyslipidemia and glucose intolerance. Weight loss can decrease Blood Pressure (BP) and improve cardiometabolic abnormalities. There is evidence that hypertension and obesity are associated with alterations in gut microbiome. Recent studies evaluating the effects of probiotics on BP, body weight, metabolic profile, inflammatory biomarkers, endothelial function and arterial stiffness found inconsistent results, probably due to the wide heterogeneity in trials design. To date, it is not known if probiotics can potentiate the effects of energy restriction in individuals with increased risk of metabolic, inflammatory and vascular abnormalities such as individuals presenting hypertension and obesity.

Objective
To evaluate the effects of probiotics during energy restriction on BP, body adiposity (total, central and visceral), insulin resistance, lipid profile, microvascular reactivity and arterial stiffness in obese hypertensive subjects.

Methods
This 12-week randomized, double-blind, controlled clinical trial with obese hypertensive adults, instructed to follow an energy-reduced diet (-800 Kcal/day) will be conducted at State University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Probiotics and control groups will take one capsule/day containing nine freeze-dried probiotic strains and cellulose, respectively. At baseline and at the end of the study, participants will undergo nutritional, laboratory, BP and vascular evaluation. Nutritional assessment will include bioelectrical impedance analysis and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. Laboratory parameters will include glucose, insulin, lipid profile, C-reactive protein, adiponectin, tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-6 and lipopolysaccharide. Post-occlusive microvascular reactivity will be evaluated by laser speckle contrast imaging and oscillometric pulse wave analysis by Mobil-O-Graph.

This paper mainly studies the problem of multi-task assignment of providers in port logistics service supply chain. As a core enterprise, port plays the role of logistics service integrator.With the continuous development of industrial integration, logistics service providers not only provide one kind of logistics service, but also develop into composite suppliers who capable of providing a variety of logistics services . This paper studies the task assignment problem of multi-service capability providers in the port logistics service supply chain. The two-stage logistics service provider task assignment model was built ,which is based on the mixed evaluation method (including MOORA and FMEA) and the multi-objective planning method. Eventually, the effectiveness of the model method was verified by combining with an example.
Expected Investment Premium in China Capital Market
Authors: Liu Di 
Published: May 2020

Through a measurement of corporate investment plan, i.e. expected investment cash flow growth (EICFG), which combines historical equity issuance and factors that influence firm’s future investment, this paper studies the impact of investment expectation on firm’s cross-sectional return of stock in China capital market. I document the negative correlation between EICFG and future stock return in A-share market, and find out that stocks of firms with higher growth of investment cash flow performs significantly worse than those with lower growth of investment cash flow in one year. Our long-short EICFG portfolio generates a statistically and economically significant return which cannot be captured by leading factor models. I further disentangle the covariation between EICFG and expected stock return from rational and behavioral perspective. This paper also extends the research of investment premium to investment-based asset pricing model.

Das Schicksal Priszillians und seiner Anhänger 380 in Saragossa, 384 in Bordeaux und 385 in Trier
Authors: Girardet Klaus Martin 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Priscillian and some of his followers were victims of synodal and state process procedures in which bishops acted as prosecutors and supporters of the death penalty imposed at Trier. The accusation was that the Priscillians were heretics (Manichaeans) and practiced maleficium, i.e. sorcery, both prohibited by law. The source situation to this already in late antiquity often as scandalous condemned case – among others by the bishops of Tours, Milan and Rome –, is very insufficient for important details. In particular, there are very few texts which can be satisfactorily evaluated for the question of conciliar majorities and minorities and possibly controversial debates. Nevertheless, with the help of the writings of Priscillian and Sulpicius Severus, it is possible at least to reconstruct with some degree of reliability the interaction between ecclesiastical and state jurisdiction, as it was largely regulated by canons and imperial laws.

IMPROVEMENT OF METAL BRIDGE ROADWAY STRUCTURE DEPENDING ON DECK PAVEMENT OPERATING BEHAVIOR
Authors: Polyakov S. Yu. 
Published: May 2020

The bridge pavement perceives millions of live load application cycles during its service life. Therefore, fatigue defects often occur in asphalt. These defects are associated with insufficient fatigue strength, for example, top-bottom cracks that appear after several years of operation and grow from top to bottom. These cracks cause more serious defects. It is necessary to prevent their occurrence.The purpose of this article is to increase the asphalt service life on bridge superstructures by developing the pavement design method. To achieve this goal, the pavement fatigue strength is analyzed. Firstly, asphalt stress-strain state is determined under the heavy load. Secondly, a safe stress level is prescribed. At this stress level, asphalt receives the required load cycles without failure. A significant increase in the orthotropic steel deck stiffness is determined to be necessary.The practical significance is the analysis of several ways to reduce asphalt stresses to the required level. The effectiveness of these methods is evaluated. New problems are identified that will enable the development of the computation method for the bridge pavement and its practical applications.The originally includes the pavement fatigue strength analysis on road bridges with regard to the temperature influence on the asphalt fatigue strength.

Published: May 2020

The article covers historical and cultural heritage of Tyumen and Tobolsk, which are the capitals of the Tobolsk region. Historical cities of Siberia have rich historical, cultural and architectural heritage. The aim of this work is to assess the role of merchantry in the architectural image of West Siberian cities such as Tyumen and Tobolsk.The novelty lies in a full analysis of historical buildings of Tyumen and Tobolsk, identification of the role of local merchantry in establishing their architectural image and preservation of historical and architectural heritage.The scientific methods include a complex scientific analysis of historical archives and of bibliographical sources, a systems and architectural analyses of the research findings. Practically, the research results can be used in preparation of lectures, papers and essays on the history of the Siberian architecture.The work is based on theories and methods of historians and architects, and the full-scale experiment carried out by the authors in the years 2013−2019.It is shown that merchant buildings are extremely valuable. The majority of the assessed buildings are historical and architectural monuments of the local and federal significance. Buildings financed from merchant’s funds preserve knowledge about the history of towns, urban planning culture of the region, development of architectural styles, social and economic standards of the West Siberian cities late in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

OBJECTIVEThe incidence of deformational brachycephaly has risen since the “Back to Sleep” movement in 1992 by the American Academy of Pediatrics. Brachycephaly prevalence and understanding the dynamic nature of the pediatric skull have not been explored in relation to the cranial index (CI). The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence of brachycephaly, via the CI, with respect to time.METHODSThe authors conducted a retrospective review of 1499 patients ≤ 19 years of age who presented for trauma evaluation with a negative CT scan for trauma (absence of bleed) in 2018. The CI was calculated using CT at the lateral-most point of the parietal bone (cephalic width), and the distance from the glabella to the opisthocranion (cephalic length). Brachycephaly was defined as a CI ≥ 90%.RESULTSThe mean CI was 82.6, with an average patient age of 6.8 years. The prevalence of deformational brachycephaly steadily decreased from 27% to 4% from birth to > 2 years of life. The mean CI was statistically different between ages < 12 months, 12–24 months, and > 24 months (F[2,1496] = 124.058, p < 0.0005). A simple linear regression was calculated to predict the CI based on age; the CI was found to decrease by 0.038 each month. A significant regression equation was found (F[1,1497] = 296.846, p < 0.0005), with an R2 of 0.140.CONCLUSIONSThe incidence of deformational brachycephaly is common in infants but decreases as the child progresses through early childhood. Clinicians can expect a significant decrease in mean CI at 12 and 24 months. Additionally, these regression models show that clinicians can expect continued improvement throughout childhood.

OBJECTIVEIncidental durotomy is a common complication of elective lumbar spine surgery seen in up to 11% of cases. Prior studies have suggested patient age and body habitus along with a history of prior surgery as being associated with an increased risk of dural tear. To date, no calculator has been developed for quantifying risk. Here, the authors’ aim was to identify independent predictors of incidental durotomy, present a novel predictive calculator, and externally validate a novel method to identify incidental durotomies using natural language processing (NLP).METHODSThe authors retrospectively reviewed all patients who underwent elective lumbar spine procedures at a tertiary academic hospital for degenerative pathologies between July 2016 and November 2018. Data were collected regarding surgical details, patient demographic information, and patient medical comorbidities. The primary outcome was incidental durotomy, which was identified both through manual extraction and the NLP algorithm. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors of incidental durotomy. Bootstrapping was then employed to estimate optimism in the model, which was corrected for; this model was converted to a calculator and deployed online.RESULTSOf the 1279 elective lumbar surgery patients included in this study, incidental durotomy occurred in 108 (8.4%). Risk factors for incidental durotomy on multivariable logistic regression were increased surgical duration, older age, revision versus index surgery, and case starts after 4 pm. This model had an area under curve (AUC) of 0.73 in predicting incidental durotomies. The previously established NLP method was used to identify cases of incidental durotomy, of which it demonstrated excellent discrimination (AUC 0.97).CONCLUSIONSUsing multivariable analysis, the authors found that increased surgical duration, older patient age, cases started after 4 pm, and a history of prior spine surgery are all independent positive predictors of incidental durotomy in patients undergoing elective lumbar surgery. Additionally, the authors put forth the first version of a clinical calculator for durotomy risk that could be used prospectively by spine surgeons when counseling patients about their surgical risk. Lastly, the authors presented an external validation of an NLP algorithm used to identify incidental durotomies through the review of free-text operative notes. The authors believe that these tools can aid clinicians and researchers in their efforts to prevent this costly complication in spine surgery.
