Authors: Ali Majid , Qureshi Naeem Ahmed , Pirzado Ali Akbar , Ahmed Iftakhar , Sabir Muhammad Rizwan 
Published: May 2021

Aim: This research aims to define equities determinants in maternal and child care in Punjab, a Pakistan province. The study focuses on the impact on Reproductive/ Maternal/ Newborn/ Child Adolescent Health (RMNCAH), introduced in 2016 through the Investment Case (IC) approach.
Methodology: A complex-sample-analysis modified the weight of the sample. Weighted disaggregated data were produced by cross-tableting with Confidence Interval (CI). A DiD analysis was performed based on a linear model of regression. Finally, the effect of the involvement was calculated by multivariate linear regression.
Principal Findings: The results show that changes had been measured in both the involvement and reference areas in involvement and no significant associations in the variables. Changes in involvement and contrast areas were similar. Also, there was no substantial improvement in aggregate outcomes from the multivariable regression analysis. In most developing countries, the IC approach is successful. Following the IC's introduction, some MNCH indicators such as ANC and the delivery of expert delivery of assistant birth showed improvements in involvement and contrast districts.
Applications of this study: The research will provide a proper guideline for the policymaker to design a need-based policy for equitable admission to child health care and maternal facilities
Novelty/Originality of this study: This study first analyzed the influence of investment- case in the RMNCAH program in Punjab.

Al-Shabab and fundamental terrorism in Somalia
Authors: Chigudu Daniel 
Published: May 2021

This study is motivated by threats faced by Somalia and other countries in fighting terrorism. Although several studies have attempted to explain the rise and dynamics of terrorism groups particularly al-Shabaab, this work is predicated more on how the terrorist activities threaten Africa and beyond informed by how these operations are sustained. This study aims to investigate threats to the continent and beyond by Al-Shabab and Fundamental Terrorism in Somalia. In this study, a content analysis was used on quantitative and qualitative data obtained from publicly available datasets and secondary sources of research work on terrorism. The main contribution of this study is that, terrorism by the al-Shabaab is highly organized and that by skirting direct combat, the group has the potential for sustained fighting episodes despite waged campaigns to deter its spread. This is exacerbated by the reluctance to deploy many infantry forces from conventional armies to deal with the situation. The study may be useful to policymakers, terrorism experts, and scholars in accelerating measures of counter-terrorism.

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.

Pain Trajectories Following Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Correction
Authors: Bailey Kristen M. , Howard Jason J. , El-Hawary Ron , Chorney Jill ,   on behalf of the PORSCHE Study Group
Published: May 2021

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.

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