Is There Asymmetry in the Relationship Between Government Consumption Dynamics and Economic Activity? Evidence From G7 Economies
Authors: Senekovič Marko 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
In this paper, based on a quarterly dataset of G7 countries with the application of a nonlinear ARDL model we test for the presence of a short-run and long-term asymmetry in the relationship between government spending and economic activity. The main aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between government spending and economic activity in two separate scenarios, first, in periods when government spending increases and, second, in periods when government spending decreases. Our key findings are, first, the linear model that produces a positive relationship between government consumption and economic activity. Second, in the nonlinear model, more than half of the short-run and long-run coefficients are statistically significant. Third, short-run and long-run asymmetry are detected in four out of seven cases with recognized short-run asymmetry also in the remaining three cases based on graphical analysis. Finally, a negatively inclined short-run asymmetry is detected. The results thus imply a stronger output effect in periods of declining dynamics in government consumption. Future research should be focused on broadening the sample countries and model by adding additional variables.
Empirical Testing of Purchasing Power Parity Validity in Selected European Union Countries
Authors: Plošinjak Jelko , Festić Mejra 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
In this article, the authors carried out an empirical analysis of the validity of purchasing power parity (PPP) in Slovenia, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Austria. The results provide mixed support for PPP, which is typical for extransition economies. In the first phase of the empirical part of the research, the authors tested the stationarity of the real exchange rate in a logarithm, while in the second phase, the cointegration of nominal exchange rate, domestic and foreign price levels was tested.The Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) was used in the third phase to test if the signs of variables are in accordance with economics and econometrics theories, while in the final phase, restrictions were imposed for the symmetry and proportionality of coefficients. Slovenia is subject to limitations on the symmetry and proportionality of coefficients, which means the validity of both the absolute and relative versions of the PPP theory. Croatia is subject to a limitation on symmetry, but not to a limit on the proportionality of coefficients, which means the validity of the relative version of the PPP theory. In the case of the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Austria, restrictions on the symmetry and proportionality of the coefficients do not apply, which consequently constitutes an invalidity of both versions. However, to the authors’ knowledge, and taking into account Liu (1992), who states that it is more important to check the presence of co-integration than to check the symmetry and proportionality of the coefficients, since there is a cointegratation between the nominal exchange rate, foreign prices and domestic prices, the theory of PPP is valid for all the selected countries. The empirical results suggest that all the real exchange rate time series are stationary, additionally, cointegration exists among all the variables for all countries, and the signs of coefficients are statistically significant for all variables in all countries, however, the coefficient restrictions are only statistically significant in Slovenia and Croatia.
A Demand-Side Analysis of Intellectual Capital in the Accommodation Industry: The Case of the Youth Market in Slovenia
Authors: Rudež Helena Nemec 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
To date, research on intellectual capital (IC) in tourism has dealt with the supply-side view. This study continues the research into IC and develops a new perspective dealing with the demand side of IC in the accommodation industry, focusing on young consumers. On the theoretical ground, the study adapts the supply-side IC indicators to the demand-side perspective. A convenience sampling approach is used, and data was collected from 150 students representing the youth market. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) is used to identify the dimensions of human, customer and structural capital of the accommodation industry for the youth market. Five dimensions of IC perceived by the youth market are identified: ‘Employee attitudes towards work’ and ‘Employee qualification’ constitute human capital; ‘Connectedness with guests’ and ‘Accommodation reputation and image’ represent customer capital, and ‘Structural knowledge’ reflects structural capital for youth in the accommodation industry.
The Effect of Stock Market Listing on Real Earnings Management: Evidence From Algerian Companies
Authors: Kimouche Bilal 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
This paper aims to explore the effect of the Algiers Stock Exchange listing on real earnings management. The study included 14 non-financial non-listed companies during the period 2015-2019 and six non-financial listed companies during the period 2010-2019. Due to the small number of companies listed on the Algiers Stock Exchange, the period of study was extended in the case of listed companies to provide enough observations. The measurement of real earnings management is based on the model of abnormal cash flows from operations (Roychowdhury, 2006), while the hypothesis testing is based on a model of multiple linear regression. The results indicate that the company size and the nature of financial statement (consolidation) do not have any effect on real earnings management in Algerian companies. The results are not consistent with the author’s hypothesis about the positive effect of stock market listing on real earnings management. The empirical evidence suggests that the Algiers Stock Exchange listing has had a negative effect on real earnings management in Algerian companies. This might be due to the scrutiny of auditors and regulators as the number of companies is easy to control, which decreases the opportunity for Algerian companies to rely on real earnings management in accordance with the opportunistic or informational view.
New trend in transfusion medicine – Patient blood management
Authors: Sándor Pál , Barbara Réger , Attila Miseta , Zsuzsanna Faust 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
Transfusion is often part of hospital care, the indication being in constant change as an effect of latest multicentric studies’ result. Although transfusion-related complications decreased significantly, the intervention still involves risks, that are worth assuming if only the anemia of patient cannot be managed with other, safer methods. Management of patients declining transfusion or of those unsuitable for transfusion has brought instructive results in assessment of hemoglobin concentration conditioning the necessity of the intervention. Further development of these findings led to development of Patient Blood Management concept, aiming the optimization of blood product usage while improving morbidity and mortality of patient care. Patient Blood Management applies guides helping to avoid transfusions that are not definitely necessary for patients. Using restrictive transfusion principles, preoperative anemia management, tight hemostasis monitoring and treatment, is not only safer but also cost-effective. The objective of our paper is the brief report of some Patient Blood Management guidelines, and to promote and facilitate the application of the new approach.
Skopje 2014: Disneyfication Of A City Or Powerful Tool In The Hands Of The Competitive Authoritarian Regime In Macedonia?1
Authors: Blazhevski Bojan 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
The paper focuses on research on the political decision-making process in the Skopje 2014 project. It describes the procedure for execution of the project from the aspect of transparency and involvement of different segments of Macedonian society based on journalistic article analysis. Thematic analysis was used as the method to accomplish the research. The analysis of the articles shows the undemocratic way of making decisions about the future urban landscape of the capital. In this case, the Disneyfication of the Skopje city centre was only used as a tool for the construction of a competitive authoritarian regime.
Spatial and temporal changes in the diet composition of the Eurasian eagle-owl (Bubo bubo) in Slovakia comparing three historical periods
Authors: Obuch Ján 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
The author evaluates his own data on the food of the Eurasian eagle-owl (Bubo bubo) in Slovakia using material he collected between 1975 and 2020. A total of 105,543 food items were identified in 254 samples taken at 136 localities. Mammals had the highest representation (Mammalia, 65 species, 58.4%), and the species composition of birds was diverse (Aves, minimally 140 species, 8.5%), but the common frog (Rana temporaria, 32.0%), from the lower vertebrates, is represented more abundantly. Invertebrates (Evertebrata, 0.1%) occurred in food residues only occasionally. The bulk of the samples were collected from eagle-owl nests. The samples were divided into three time periods (A–C), which differ in the manner of human land-use management: A up to the 1950s, with a smaller area of field plots and more extensive grazing in the uplands; B from the 1950s to the 1980s, during the Socialist period, with the concentration of agricultural production in large units; C the last 30 years, 1990 to 2020, with the gradual break-up of collective land management. The first period (A) is characterised by a strong dominance of frogs, particularly the European brown frog R. temporaria (44.6%), and a large share of small mammal species of the family Muridae (genera Apodemus and Mus). During the time of Socialism (B), eagle-owls adapted to hunting larger species of mammals and birds, and the share of frogs in their food fell by half (R. temporaria, 23.3%). With the decline in livestock production after 1990 (period C), the species diversity of birds increased: aquatic species and raptors in particular are on the rise. Successive overgrowth of pastures in the submontane zone is reducing the hunting territories of eagle-owls. The dominance of the common vole (Microtus arvalis) in their diet has gradually increased from period A (26.8%) to period C (37.3%). Data from eleven areas around Slovakia are evaluated separately for the three time periods. In period A, the highest proportion of frogs was in the Liptov region (R. temporaria, 68.2%), when eagle-owls nested deeper in the mountains. The proportion of frogs decreased towards lower areas, and in the Ponitrie (Nitra river basin) it was only 10.8%. At the same time, the share of M. arvalis and larger prey increased. A similar trend of increasing shares of larger prey towards lower locations also applied during the Socialist period (B). In the last 30 years (C), frogs in the higher river basins have given way to European water voles Arvicola amphibius and M. arvalis. In association with the progressive overgrowth of pastures, forest species such as the yellow-necked mouse (Apodemus flavicollis) and bank vole (Myodes glareolus) are increasingly prevalent, as are the white-breasted hedgehog (Erinaceus roumanicus) and various thrushes (Turdus sp.).
Centralised Multi-National Practices of Transfer and Managerial Discrepancies: Evidence from a Romanian Call Center
Authors: Mihály Zoltan 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
This paper describes workplace dynamics in a call centre located in Romania, a subsidiary of a multi-national corporation (MNC). Positing a centralised practice transfer and global management strategy, the company relies exclusively on home-country decision makers. Placed within Romania’s dependent economic profile alongside its deregulated employment relations, centralised managerial decisions create widespread organisational uncertainty with numerous hire and fire and downsizing procedures, followed by subsequent recruitment campaigns designed to replace the previously displaced workforce.
Les erreurs de traduction dans la confection des dictionnaires bilingues : le cas des patronymes issus du groupe Bantu B40
Authors: Bigoundou Rodrigue 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
The development of dictionaries bilingual is a very complex activity that highlights three areas of expertise : lexicographical, terminological and translational. This category of dictionary requires command of the general language and more. An Indepth knowledge of the terms (surnames) is in the field of terminology, a real link between lexicography and translation. A lexicographic only analysis can cause translation errors in the construction of this tool. Thas is why synergy between these three levels of competence remains a prerequisite. Translation is therefore a necessity for the development of the bilingual dictionary.
La traduction peut-elle abattre les frontières linguistiques et culturelles ?
Authors: Castro Agatino Lo 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
Translation is an act of peace and exchange that aims to transcend linguistic and cultural boundaries. Indeed, translation is a transcultural practice that aims at the acceptance of the other and the encounters of languages and cultures. Several questions arise from this: What type of reflection on translation can be envisaged to break down linguistic and cultural boundaries? Should we think of translation as a purely linguistic act? Is it possible to accept the other from a linguistic and cultural point of view to conceive translation as a transcultural act? We will try to answer these questions by analyzing and by translating extracts into Italian from Prière aux ancêtres by the French- Congolese poet Gabriel Okoundji.

Authors: Bhattacharya Subham , Ray Siddhartha Sankar , Chakrabarti Prantar , Sabui Tapas , Sadhukhan Sanjoy Kumar , Bhattacharyya Maitreyee 
Published: January 2022

Objectives:
Treatment for children with newly diagnosed immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) includes corticosteroids, out of which prednisolone is commonly used. High-dose dexamethasone (HD-DXM) treatment for children with newly diagnosed ITP can produce better outcomes than prednisone, as stated by many studies. A few articles compare HD-DXM and prednisolone as frontline therapies in newly diagnosed adult ITP but data on pediatric ITP comparing these two drugs are scarce.

Material and Methods:
It was a randomized, prospective, and cohort study. After enrolment, checking the inclusion and exclusion criteria, each child was randomly distributed into two groups; one cohort was treated with HD-DXM in the dose of 40 mg/m2 (maximum daily dose 40 mg) for 4 days once every 28 days for three cycles; and one with prednisolone in the dose of 2 mg/kg/day (maximum 60 mg/day) for 2 weeks, with quick tapering. A total of 42 children were enrolled, 21 in each cohort.

Results:
The overall response (OR) was 42.9% with HD-DXM therapy. The OR and median time to response were similar in both HD-DXM and prednisolone cohorts. There was also no significant difference in incidences of adverse effects between the two cohorts.

Conclusion:
Thus, this study confirms that HD-DXM is a safe, effective, and non-inferior option compared to prednisolone as frontline therapy in newly diagnosed ITP in children.
Immunological safety assessment of a single and repeated intra-articular administration of xenogeneic equine umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells under field conditions in young healthy dogs: A randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study
Authors: Garcia-Pedraza Elena , de Miguel Ana Gallego , Gomez de Segura Ignacio Alvarez , Pérez Antonio Portolés 
Published: January 2022

Objectives:
The objective was to study the cellular immune response of equine umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (EUC-MSCs) in healthy dogs after a single and repeated intra-articular administration versus placebo in the right knee.

Material and Methods:
Sixteen dogs were randomized into two groups of eight dogs that received two intraarticular administrations of placebo or EUC-MSCs on day 0 and on day 28. Blood samples for the analysis of cellular response were obtained from the cephalic vein on days 0 for baseline data, 14, 28 (before the second administration), 42, and 56. A cellular response assay was made through the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT tetrazolium) method.

Results:
No cytotoxic reaction occurred between lymphocytes and EUC-MSC demonstrating the safety of EUCMSCs administration in dogs.

Conclusion:
Overall these results suggest that the administration of EUC-MSCs can be considered as safe.

Общественно-политические процессы, происходящие в современном социуме на протяжениипоследних трех десятилетий, вызвали кардинальные изменения в жизни и мировоззрении граждан, чтоне могло не найти отражения в процессах, которые происходят в русском и, соответственно, чеченскомязыках. Учитывая активизацию международных отношений России с другими государствами и ведущимипозициями английского языка на мировой арене, вполне естественным является то, что русским языкомзаимствуется общественно-политическая и экономическая лексика английского языка. Данная статьяпосвящена новейшим англоязычным лексемам экономической тематики в текстах СМИ на чеченскомязыке. Заимствования данной тематической группы составляют самую многочисленную группу,поскольку англоязычные лексемы из экономической сферы начали функционировать в чеченском языкееще в конце ХХ века. Авторы выделяют англоязычные экономические термины, которые давно сталипривычными для чеченцев и уже не воспринимаются как заимствования (например: бизнес, бизнесмен,траст, маркетинг, менеджер и т.п.). Кроме этого, существует большое количество экономическихнеозаимствований, которыми активно пользуются в языке средств массовой информации, однако ониеще не вошли в обиход.
The socio-political processes taking place in modern society over the past three decades have causedfundamental changes in the life and outlook of citizens, which could not but be reflected in the processes thatoccur in the Russian and, accordingly, the Chechen languages. Given the intensification of Russia's internationalrelations with other states and the leading positions of the English language on the world stage, it is quite naturalthat the socio-political and economic vocabulary of the English language is borrowed by the Russian language.This article is devoted to the latest English-language economic lexemes in the texts of the media in the Chechenlanguage. Borrowings of this thematic group make up the largest group, since English-language lexemes fromthe economic sphere began to function in the Chechen language at the end of the twentieth century. The authorsidentify English-language economic terms that have long become familiar to Chechens and are no longerperceived as borrowings (for example: business, businessman, trust, marketing, manager, etc.). In addition,there are a large number of economic non-borrowings that are actively used in the language of the media, butthey have not yet come into use.
