Authors: Khadka Bal Krishna , Rajopadhyaya Umesh 
Published: January 2024

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to construct the optimum portfolio of eight sectors listed in NEPSE applying the Sharpe’s single index model.
Design/Methodology/Approach: Adopting the judgement sampling method, eight sectors were selected for the study. The study period was taken from august 2018 to august 2021 for the three years period as this time frame is the recent bull period. During this period the market index increased from around 1100 to an all-time high index 3200. To construct the optimum portfolio, daily returns of the market and sectors were used. Cut off rate (C*) was calculated in order to form the optimum portfolio using daily basis data. Those sectors whose excess return to beta ratio is higher than cut off rate were included in the optimum portfolio.
Findings: The study revealed five sectors- non-life insurance, hydro power, finance, microfinance, and development bank-form the optimum portfolio. In terms of ratio of investment in the optimum portfolio, the proportion of investment is found higher in the finance sector (36.6%) and lower in the development bank sector (11%). Furthermore, in terms of unsystematic risk, non-life insurance (3.681) and hydro power sector (3.508) are found as risky sectors compared to other sectors. This study exclusively used the bull period data to form the optimum portfolio applying the Sharpe’s single index model in a daily basis data.
Implications: The finding can help the investors to make informed decisions aligned with their risk tolerance, return expectation and overall investment objectives.

Assessing Lead Screening Rates at a Rural Tertiary Teaching Hospital
Authors: Leonard Laura , McGowan Michele M , Evans Tina M 
Published: January 2024

Background: Significant adverse health outcomes in children are related to elevated blood lead levels (BLL). Exposure to lead remains a significant public health issue in the United States, yet screening rates remain low. This study assessed lead screening rates in a rural tertiary teaching hospital serving a bi-state area to determine if opportunities exist to improve care. Methods: The study performed a retrospective review of 5,016 electronic medical records for children who turned 30 months old between January 1, 2017, and December 31, 2021, and received care from ages 9 through 30 months. Chi-square tests assessed differences between groups. Logistic regression examined state-by-provider interaction. Results: No significant difference ( P = 0.734) was found between states in the first BLL completion rate. There was a statistically higher ( P < 0.001) difference between states for a second BLL test completion. In the state with a universal screening requirement, the health system was below standard but performed equivalently or better than research studies. In the state requiring only children benefiting from Medicaid to undergo screening, compliance could not be definitively established. However, proxy statistics concluded that screening rate improvements could be made. Pediatric offices were more likely to realize first and second BLL test results. State-by-provider interaction provided mixed results. Conclusion: This health care system aims to provide the highest evidence-based care to each patient, regardless of provider type or service location. The study shows opportunities exist to improve BLL screening and proposes education, electronic reminders, and in-office blood collection solutions.

Authors: Harmon Joey , Endy Melissa C , Sulzinski Michael A , Piper Brian J 
Published: January 2024

Background: The global COVID-19 pandemic highlighted vaccination concerns in Pennsylvania. Limited information on vaccine hesitancy in the state prompted this study, which aimed to characterize demographic determinants of changes in hesitancy since the COVID-19 vaccine's availability. Methods: The US Census Bureau's Household Pulse Survey (N = 62,826) provided vaccine hesitancy/status data from January 2021 to April 2022. Specifically surveys from January 2021, June 2021, and April 2022 were utilized. Demographics (race, age, education status, household income, and sex at birth) were compared using odds ratios (ORs) and CI. Results: Significant changes in vaccine hesitancy occurred among certain populations. Initially, odds of vaccination for African Americans were lower (OR 0.683) compared to Whites, but in the latest survey, the odds were higher (OR 1.443). Asians consistently had the highest odds (OR 9.009) of vaccination. In January 2021, odds of vaccination among men were lower (OR 0.856) than women, but later, the odds increased (OR 1.402). Patterns in household income, age, and education status groups remained consistent. Those aged 65 years and over, with a household annual income of more than $150,000, or a bachelor's degree or higher had the highest vaccination rates. Conclusion: Findings indicate stable vaccination patterns among non-race demographic categories during the pandemic. However, the relationship between vaccination status and race was more dynamic. Further qualitative investigations are needed to understand these changes and address inaccurate beliefs surrounding COVID-19 vaccination in Pennsylvania.
