Dual Effect Of Exchange Rate Policies And Export Promotion On China’S Economic Growth (1990-2023), Ihab Abbas Mohammed Al-Faisal, Zahid Qasim Al-Saadib

Muthanna Journal of Administrative and Economics Sciences

The study aims to identify the Chinese economy’s economic variables by studying and analyzing exchange rate and export promotion policies as they directly relate to the country and its external environment. Studying the relationship between currency exchange rates and exports, on the one hand, and exports and economic growth in China, on the other hand, is essential in knowing when devaluing the Yuan exchange rate leads to higher export growth, which helped raise economic growth rates in China. Therefore, the study relied on the hypothesis that “if China comes up with financial policies to reduce the exchange rate of its …

Mass Shootings And Trauma-Informed Pedagogy, Kelly Stith

English Faculty Research

I am sitting in the University of Nevada Las Vegas Special Collections archive room in the Lied Library. I came here before to donate a zine of a previously published essay, “Still Echoes,” and photographs to a project they are coordinating in remembrance of the December 6, 2023, mass shooting. The Special Collections team was gracious enough to allow me to investigate other artifacts, including several handwritten condolence cards left at campus memorials. Being here is harrowing and reminds me that these are not just mere notes but reflections of people’s grief and the reckoning with a tragedy that rocked …

Matter Of Hefti V New York State Div. Of Hous. & Community Renewal

All Decisions

The court upheld DHCR's denial of tenant's PAR, finding that there was no fraudulent scheme to deregulate the apartment. DHCR rationally relied on a 2005 order, rejecting tenant's claim that a 2001 rent increase established fraud. The court affirmed the dismissal of the tenant's overcharge claims, denying any award for treble damages, and found no due process violations in the DHCR's proceedings. Article 78 petition.

All Decisions

In this holdover proceeding, the court dismissed the case due to the defective 90-day notice of termination, which did not align with the tenant's lease terms as mandated by RPL § 232-a. The tenant's lease, starting May 15, 2017, established rent due by the 15th of each month. The court found that any modification of these terms requires mutual agreement, which was not demonstrated. Thus, the termination notice's date of the 31st was deemed invalid, resulting in dismissal.

Delayed Emergence Of Isolated Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency: A Case Report, Angela Blanco, Deepa Sharma

All Publications

Secondary adrenal insufficiency (SAI) is a rare condition caused by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) deficiency, which disrupts ACTH secretion by the pituitary gland and can lead to chronic hyponatremia. However, idiopathic delayed onset of isolated adrenal insufficiency without triggering factors is an unusual finding and poses a challenging diagnosis. We present the case of an 80-year-old woman with hypothyroidism, hypertension, previous tobacco use, and squamous cell carcinoma of the ankle who presented with weakness and fatigue. Blood work showed hyponatremia (126 mmol/L), nonfasting blood glucose of 139 mg/dL, and elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR, 83 mm/hr). Initial treatment included urea administration …

Under The Surface Of Perfectionism: A Qualitative Examination Of Perfectionism In Women Leaders, Rachelle Martin

Dissertations

This qualitative study explores the manifestations and management of perfectionism among women leaders, framed through the lens of conservation of resources (COR) theory. By examining the experiences of women across various industries, the research highlights how perfectionism can act both as a strength and a challenge, depending on resource availability and self-awareness. The findings emphasize the compounded pressures faced by women, particularly women of color, and the significant role of self-awareness, coping mechanisms and mitigation techniques. Participants revealed how resource depletion may contribute to heightened perfectionistic tendencies, which subsequently may impact career outcomes. Self-awareness emerged as a moderating factor that, …

Multivariable Mendelian Randomization With Incomplete Measurements On The Exposure Variables In The Hispanic Community Health Study/Study Of Latinos, Heather M Highland, Carolina G Downie, Christy L Avery, Bing Yu, Kristin L Young, Victoria L Buchanan, Robert Kaplan, Lifang Hou, Brian Thomas Joyce, Qibin Qi, Tamar Sofer, Jee-Young Moon, Dan-Yu Lin

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Multivariable Mendelian randomization allows simultaneous estimation of direct causal effects of multiple exposure variables on an outcome. When the exposure variables of interest are quantitative omic features, obtaining complete data can be economically and technically challenging: the measurement cost is high, and the measurement devices may have inherent detection limits. In this paper, we propose a valid and efficient method to handle unmeasured and undetectable values of the exposure variables in a one-sample multivariable Mendelian randomization analysis with individual-level data. We estimate the direct causal effects with maximum likelihood estimation and develop an expectation-maximization algorithm to compute the estimators. We …

Perceived Employability Of International Doctoral Students In The Uk: Applying Bronfenbrenner’S Ecological Systems Theory, Fa Wang, Rong Huang, Wai Mun Lim, Jinhua Zhang

Plymouth Business School

The quality of the UK’s doctorate training system plays a fundamental role in fostering vibrant research outputs and attracting global talent. However, while maintaining a consistently high standard of quality remains static and challenging, little is known about how the employability of international doctorate students is shaped and at what juncture it is opportune to support their employability during their research studies. This paper aims to understand the employability of international doctoral students within business schools at British universities, drawing on Urie Bronfenbrenner’s ecological systems theory as a framework. The qualitative study involves 15 international doctoral students from 9 business …

Whole Genome Analyses Of Introgression In British And Irish Apis Mellifera Mellifera, Victoria G. Buswell, J. Vanessa Huml, Jonathan S. Ellis, Andrew Brown, Mairi E. Knight

School of Biological and Marine Sciences

The Western honey bee, Apis mellifera (A. mellifera) Linnaeus, is one of the world’s most economically important pollinators. Conserving genetic resources in this species is therefore of significant value. Despite this, little attention has been paid to the potential erosion of locally adapted genetic variants by transhumance of particular subspecies favoured by beekeepers. In particular, introgression and hybridisation by repeated backcrossing can disrupt naturally-selected allele combinations and therefore erode local adaptation. Here we use whole genome sequencing (WGS) to assess levels of introgression in the native subspecies Apis mellifera mellifera (A. m. mellifera) across a wide geographical scale in Britain …

All Works

Electrolyte utilization and the consequent concentration polarization significantly limit the potential increase in power density and contribute to electrode degradation in vanadium redox flow batteries during cycling. This study investigates a novel curvature streamlined design, drawing inspiration from natural forms, aiming to enhance the performance of vanadium redox flow battery cells compared to conventional square and rectangular flow-through cell designs. The simulated 3D single-cell model shows a notably superior uniformity in both current and species' concentration distribution within the streamlined design compared to the square and rectangular shapes. Experimental analysis conducted on 3D-printed flow frames demonstrated 2 % enhanced energy …

Convolutional neural networks (CNN) show great promise for translating decades of research on structural abnormalities in temporal lobe epilepsy into clinical practice. Three-dimensional CNNs typically outperform two-dimensional CNNs in medical imaging. Here we explore for the first time whether a three-dimensional CNN outperforms a two-dimensional CNN for identifying temporal lobe epilepsy-specific features on MRI. Using 1178 T1-weighted images (589 temporal lobe epilepsy, 589 healthy controls) from 12 surgical centres, we trained 3D and 2D CNNs for temporal lobe epilepsy versus healthy control classification, using feature visualization to identify important regions. The 3D CNN was compared to the 2D model and …
