Fintech Services and Entrepreneurship in Africa
Authors: Olanrele Iyabo 
Published: January 2025

Purpose: This paper examines the effect of fintech on entrepreneurship to ascertain the role of financial technology services on individual entrepreneurial intention in five sub-Saharan African countries.
Methods: The analysis was based on an extended probit model to determine the country-specific effect of mobile money account ownership (Fin) on individuals who used fintech services to start a business (Ent) as a measure of entrepreneurship. The impact of other control variables (X) such as credit access, education, and labor force participation on entrepreneurship (Ent) was also considered.
Results: The findings show that fintech services through mobile money are significantly associated with an increased likelihood of entrepreneurship in The Republic of Congo, Kenya, Mauritius, Nigeria, and South Africa. Credit access, higher levels of education, and labor force participation are other drivers of entrepreneurship in Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa.
Implications: Country-specific characteristics play a significant role in engendering entrepreneurship; thus, the government should intensify efforts to diffuse and adopt fintech for optimal livelihood and economic transformation.
Originality: Overall, this paper accounts for the role of technology penetration in financial services and contributes to the literature on entrepreneurship development in the African context. The research utilizes the World Bank Global Findex data, which is nationally representative, to provide insight into the subject matter.
Limitations: This paper's analysis relied on the 2017 World Bank Global Findex Database, the most recent data available. Although this may be perceived as insufficient, the findings were valid due to their alignment with similar outcomes in the literature
Early Enrichment Population Theory at High Redshift
Authors: Blackwell Anne E. , Bregman Joel N. 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
An early enrichment population (EEP) has been theorized to produce the observed intracluster medium (ICM) metallicity of galaxy clusters. This population likely existed at high redshifts (z ∼ 10), relics of which we posit exist today as dwarf galaxies. Previous work has argued that the initial mass function (IMF) of the EEP must be flatter than those found at lower redshifts, but with considerable uncertainties. In this work, we present a more quantitative model for the EEP and demonstrate how observational constraints can be applied to the IMF using supernova Type Ia (SN Ia) rates, delay time distributions (DTDs), and the luminosity functions (LFs) of galaxy clusters. We determine best-fit values for the slope and mass break of the IMF by comparing IMFs from literature with observed DTDs and the low-luminosity component (M(R) > −12) of the Coma LF. We derive two best-fit IMFs, flatter than standard IMFs: (1) α

lo
= −0.13 ± 0.24 for 0.07 < M/M
⊙ < 1.75 and α

hi
= 0.53 ± 0.01 for 1.75 < M/M
⊙ < 150; and (2) α

lo
= 1.06 ± 0.11 for 0.07 < M/M
⊙ < 6 and α

hi
= 0.53 ± 0.01 for 6 < M/M
⊙ < 150. We compare these with sl-5 from M. Loewenstein (2013), with α = 0.5 for 0.07 < M/M
⊙ < 8 and α = 0.3 for 8 < M/M
⊙ < 150. This EEP model, along with stars formed at later times, can produce the observed ICM metallicity, is consistent with observations, and predicts a significant rise in the SN Ia rate at increasing redshift.
The Occurrence of Powerful Flares Stronger than X10 Class in Solar Cycles
Authors: Tan Baolin , Zhang Yin , Huang Jing , Ji Kaifan 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Solar flares stronger than X10 (S-flares, >X10) are the highest-class flares that significantly impact on the Sun's evolution and space weather. Based on observations of Geostationary Orbiting Environmental Satellites at soft X-ray wavelength and the daily sunspot numbers (DSNs) since 1975, we obtained some interesting and heuristic conclusions: (1) both S-flares and the more powerful extremely strong flares (ES-flares, >X14.3) mostly occur in the late phases of solar cycles (SCs) and low-latitude regions on the solar disk; (2) similar to X-class flares, the occurrence of S-flares in each SC is somewhat random, but the occurrence of ES-flares seems to be dominated by the mean DSN (V

m
) and its rms deviation during the valley phase (V

d
) before the cycle: the ES-flare number is strongly correlated with V

d
, and the occurrence time of the first ES-flare is anticorrelated with V

d
and V

m
. These facts indicate that the higher the V

m
and V

d
, the stronger the SC, the more the ES-flares, and the earlier they occurred. We propose that the Sun may have a low-latitude active zone (LAZ), and most ES-flares are generated from the interaction between the LAZ and the newly emerging active regions. The correlations and the linear regression functions may provide an useful method to predict the occurrence of ES-flares in an upcoming SC, which derives that SC 25 will have about 2 ± 1 ES-flares after the spring of 2027.

Authors: Yan Zi-Jie , Zhang Lin , Han Xin-Yao , Kang Yu , Liu Shu-Man , Ma Tian-Peng , Xiao Man , Xie Yi-Qiang 
Published: January 2025

Objective:
To investigate the effects of Alpiniae oxyphyllae Fructus (AOF) on renal lipid deposition in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and elucidate its molecular mechanisms.

Methods:
The mechanism of AOF in treating DKD was explored by network pharmacological enrichment analysis, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation. The effects of AOF on renal function and lipid deposition were assessed in a mouse model of DKD and high glucose-stressed HK-2 cells. Cell viability and lipid accumulation were detected by CCK8 and oil red O staining. The expressions of PPARα and fatty acid oxidation-related genes (ACOX1 and CPT1A) were detected by quantitative RT-PCR, Western blot, and immunofluorescence. Furthermore, PPARα knockdown was performed to examine the molecular mechanism of AOF in treating DKD.

Results:
Network pharmacological enrichment analysis, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation showed that the active compounds in AOF targeted PPARα and thus transcriptionally regulated ACOX1 and CPT1A. AOF lowered blood glucose, improved dyslipidemia, and attenuated renal injury in DKD mice. AOF-containing serum accentuated high glucose-induced decrease in cell viability and ameliorated lipid accumulation. Additionally, it significantly upregulated the expression of PPARα, ACOX1, and CPT1A in both in vivo and in vitro experiments, which was reversed by PPARα knockdown.

Conclusions:
AOF may promote fatty acid oxidation via PPARα to ameliorate renal lipid deposition in DKD.
Development of the Marathi Version of the Quebec Back Pain Disability Scale: A Cross-Cultural Adaptation and Validation in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain
Authors: Walankar Prachita Pravin , Panhale Vrushali P. , Kadam Soniya 
Published: January 2025

Abstract

Background:
The Quebec Back Pain Disability Scale (QBPDS) is a more commonly used measure to assess the disability in low back pain (LBP) patients. It is important to administer patient-reported outcomes in the patient’s native language to enhance successful outcomes.
The objective of this study was to translate, culturally adapt, and validate QBPDS into Marathi language and establish psychometric properties in chronic LBP patients.
A prospective, cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary health care center.

Materials and Methods:
The QBPDS was translated and culturally adapted into Marathi (QBPDS-M) following standardized guidelines. A total of 75 chronic low back patients participated in the study. The construct validity of QBPDS-M was evaluated using exploratory factor analysis. Convergent validity was assessed using the Pearson correlation analysis between the QBPDS-M and Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) and the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). Internal consistency and test–retest reliability was computed using Cronbach’s alpha and intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC), respectively.

Results:
Construct validity was established revealing the 6-factor structure of QBPDS-M with 60.62% of the total variance. Content validity was confirmed with no floor or ceiling effects. Convergent validity showed a moderate correlation with RMDQ (r = 0.68 and P = 0.000) and NPRS (r = 0.345 and P = 0.002). The QBPDS-M demonstrated excellent internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = 0.893) and good test–retest reliability (ICC2,1 = 0.862).

Conclusion:
Psychometric analysis of QBPDS-M demonstrated satisfactory construct validity, internal consistency, and test–retest reliability. It can be utilized for clinical and research purposes to assess the functional disability in Marathi-speaking chronic LBP patients.
The History of Taxes and Obligations In The Kokand Khanate
Authors: Ug’li Dusaliyev 
Published: January 2025

As history teaches us, taxes have played a significant role in the political and economic life of all states. Even in today’s developed and advanced countries, tax policy remains one of the most sensitive issues. In this article, we discuss the history of taxes and obligations in the Kokand Khanate, which existed from 1709 to 1876. This study examines the taxation and obligations system in the Kokand Khanate, utilizing systematic, comparative, and statistical analyses to evaluate its evolution and impact. Historical sources and archival records reveal that taxation, such as the “zakat,” “kharja,” and “tanobona,” was vital for the khanate’s economic foundation, supporting governance, military expenditures, and infrastructure. However, the imposition of excessive taxes and unpaid labor obligations led to widespread discontent, culminating in social uprisings like the Polatkhan Rebellion. Findings highlight distinct approaches by rulers, such as Umar Khan’s reforms that strengthened trade and governance versus Khudoyar Khan’s oppressive tax policies, which exacerbated societal tensions. The study concludes that while taxation underpinned the khanate’s prosperity during certain periods, mismanagement and a lack of reform contributed significantly to its decline and eventual annexation by Tsarist Russia. These outcomes underscore the critical balance between state financial needs and societal well-being in maintaining political stability.

Authors: Lenggen Devi chahyani 
Published: January 2025

Fenomena flexing diri di media berkaitan dengan memamerkan keberhasilan dan prestasi, yang dapat berdampak negatif pada persepsi diri dan hubungan sosial. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis flexing dari perspektif spiritual seperti yang revelansi dengan Mazmur 131:44:1-3. Kajian ini akan menggunakan pendekatan interpretatif untuk mengungkap kerendahan hati dan kedamaian batin yang ditunjukkan oleh Raja Daud. Dalam ayat-ayat ini, Daud menekankan pentingnya tidak bersikap sombong dan meninggalkan ambisi yang berlebihan, yang konsisten dengan prinsip kerendahan hati dalam iman Kristen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penerapan nilai-nilai ini tidak hanya membantu individu mengatasi tekanan sosial yang ditimbulkan oleh perilaku menyimpang, tetapi juga membantu mereka menemukan kedamaian sejati dalam hubungan mereka dengan Tuhan. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa penelitian ini mengajak para pembaca untuk merenungkan sikap dan nilai-nilai di masa media dan nilai yang dipegang dalam era media sosial yang penuh tantangan.
Predictors of Venous Thromboembolism Following Geriatric Distal Femur Fracture Fixation: Are These Patients at Higher Risk Compared With Hip Fracture Patients?

Published: January 2025

Introduction:
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) following injury and subsequent fixation of a distal femur fracture (DFFx) is associated with considerable morbidity. However, the incidence of VTE, associated factors, and the relative risk compared with hip fracture (HFx) fixation remains poorly characterized.

Methods:
Retrospective cohort study using the PearlDiver M165 database to identify geriatric patients who underwent DFFx and HFx fixation. Clinical risk factors of VTE within 90 days of DFFx and the risk modification associated with enoxaparin (Lovenox) and direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) relative to aspirin/nonprescription agents were characterized. To determine the odds of VTE following fixation of DFFx relative to HFx, a matched comparison based on age, sex, and Elixhauser Comorbidity Index was done.

Results:
Of 24,358 DFFx patients, 1684 (6.9%) developed VTE. Independent risk factors included a prior VTE (odds ratio [OR] 28.76), displaced DFFx morphologies (condylar [OR 5.44], and supracondylar without intracondylar extension [OR 3.96] and with extension [OR 3.75]), active cancer (OR 2.11), coagulopathy disorder (OR 1.15), and younger age (OR 1.03) (P < 0.05 for all). Lovenox and DOAC were both associated with reduced odds of VTE (OR 0.40 and OR 0.61, respectively) (P < 0.05 for both). Relative to HFx patients, DFFx patients demonstrated heightened odds of VTE (OR 1.25) (P < 0.001).

Discussion:
This study identified a relatively high rate of VTE, 6.9% within 90 days, following surgical management of DFFx and heightened odds of VTE relative to HFx patients. Various factors demonstrated a notable association with increased odds of VTE, although both Lovenox and DOACs may be effective therapeutic options for risk mitigation.

Authors: Bitar Imran , Zamzam Mazen , Hasan Sazid , Saleh Ehab 
Published: January 2025

Background:
Despite increasing diversity among medical students, pediatric orthopaedic surgery remains underrepresented regarding gender and ethnic diversity. Previous studies highlight notable underrepresentation of women and minorities in orthopaedic subspecialty fellowships.

Methods:
This study analyzed data from 2013 to 2023 on pediatric orthopaedic surgery fellows, collected through the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education and Graduate Medical Education Consensus. Self-identified race and gender data were used to assess trends over the decade.

Results:
The analysis included 380 fellows, of whom 62.4% were male and 37.1% were female. Racial distribution showed 62.9% White, 9.2% Asian, 4.5% Hispanic/Latino/Spanish, 4.5% Black/African American, 0% American Indian/Alaskan Native, 0% Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, 0.53% multiple race/ethnicity, and 8.4% other. Notably, 37.1% of fellows were non-White.

Conclusion:
The study reveals persistent gender and racial disparities in pediatric orthopaedic surgery fellowships. Targeted recruitment and support for underrepresented groups, along with systemic changes to address barriers, are crucial for fostering a diverse and inclusive workforce. Enhanced diversity is essential for providing culturally competent care to the diverse patient population.

This study investigated the response of human monocytes to co-culture with pegylated (linear or branched) graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles, specifically examing both small (P-GOs, 100 -200 nm) and larger (P-GOb, 1-5 μm) particles at concentrations of 5, 25, and 50 µg mL–1. Human monocytes (CD14+ cells) were isolated and cultured with these nanoparticles for 72 hours. We measured cell viability, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, and cytokine production. The findings showed that P-GO nanoparticles had little effect on cytokine production, including MIF, GM-CSF, VEGF, IP-10, IL-8, HGF, and SCGF-beta in vitro. At a low concentration (5 μg mL–1), P-GO exhibited minimal influence on cytokines, except forthe LP-GOb variant, which increased M-CSF production. Conversely, 25 and 50 μg mL–1 of P-GO nanoparticles enhanced the release of variouscytokines, including proinflammatory IL-6, IL-1β, IL-1α, IL-18, IL-17, IL-16, IFN-γ, TNF-β, TNF-α, anti-inflammatory IL-1ra, IL-13, IL-10, IL-4, regulatory G-CSF, IL-2, IL-3, IL-5, IL-12 (p40), IL-12 (p70), M-CSF, GM-CSF and chemokines CTACK, Eotaxin, GRO-α, RANTES, MIP-1β, MCP-1, MIP-1α, MCP-3, MIG, SDF-1α, growth factors Basic FGF, PDGF-BB, SCF, and LIF and TRAIL. Although higher concentrations of P-GO nanoparticles resulted in significant cytokine production, monocyte viability remained largely unaffected . LDH release was elevated solely in samples treated with 50 μg mL–1 of LP-GOb. BP-GOs showed minimal influence on cytokine profiles, raising M-CSF levels at the highest concentration. These results indicate that modifying graphene oxide nanoparticles may hold potential for creating graphene-based pharmacological agents.
