Influence Of Risk Research Articles

Measuring the Effects of Risk and Cultural Dimensions on the Adoption of Online Stock Trading

Online stock trading (OST) is a growing phenomenon across countries, yet there is a sparse literature focusing on the negative utilities (risks) that causing the low adoption. Drawing from perceived risk theory, this article attempts to fill the gap by identifying the influential risk factors that impede the acceptance of OST in a developing country, Pakistan. The study also applies the Hofstede cultural theory to ascertain the effects of cultural moderators on investors' usage behavior (UB). Based on structured questionnaire, 443 valid responses were received from current and potential investors. The model was tested using structural equation modeling through Smart-PLS. The results validate a negative and significant relationship between risk dimensions and investors' behavioral intentions (BI) to use OST. Especially time, financial, performance, privacy and opportunity cost risks are found having a negative impact on investors' BI. Moreover, the study finds that cultural dimensions, collectivism, and uncertainty avoidance, moderate the relationship between BI and UB.

Risk Factor Analysis for Secondary Malignancy in Dexrazoxane-Treated Pediatric Cancer Patients.

PurposeDexrazoxane has been used as an effective cardioprotector against anthracycline cardiotoxicity. This study intended to analyze cardioprotective efficacy and secondary malignancy development, and elucidate risk factors for secondary malignancies in dexrazoxane-treated pediatric patients.Materials and MethodsData was collected from 15 hospitals in Korea. Patients who received any anthracyclines, and completed treatment without stem cell transplantation were included. For efficacy evaluation, the incidence of cardiac events and cardiac event-free survival rates were compared. Data about risk factors of secondary malignancies were collected.ResultsData of total 1,453 cases were analyzed; dexrazoxane with every anthracyclines group (D group, 1,035 patients) and no dexrazoxane group (non-D group, 418 patients). Incidence of the reported cardiac events was not statistically different between two groups; however, the cardiac event-free survival rate of patients with more than 400 mg/m2 of anthracyclines was significantly higher in D group (91.2% vs. 80.1%, p=0.04). The 6-year cumulative incidence of secondary malignancy was not different between both groups after considering follow-up duration difference (non-D, 0.52%±0.37%; D, 0.60%±0.28%; p=0.55). The most influential risk factor for secondary malignancy was the duration of anthracycline administration according to multivariate analysis.ConclusionDexrazoxane had an efficacy in lowering cardiac event-free survival rates in patients with higher cumulative anthracyclines. As a result of multivariate analysis for assessing risk factors of secondary malignancy, the occurrence of secondary malignancy was not related to dexrazoxane administration.

Risk Factors of Cataract Incidence In Patients Men Age 40-55 Years At Pertamina Hospital Balikpapan

Cataracts occur due to opacities in the lens of the eye resulting in hanging of light into the eyeball, so the vision becomes blurred and over time can cause blindness. One of the most common causes of blindness worldwide is cataracts. Increased cases of cataract occur in Balikpapan Pertamina Hospital for the last 3 months in January to March that is 142 cases, 173 cases and 188 cases. Cataract events are associated with the causes of diabetes mellitus, economic status, smoking habits, UV exposure, and protein consumption habits. The purpose of this study was to analyze the magnitude of risk factors with the incidence of cataracts in male patients aged 40-55 years in Balikpapan pertamina hospital. The type of research used in this research is analytic observational study with case control study design. The sample in this research consist of case and control by using method of Purposive Sampling, case sample that is male patient age 40-55 cataract treatment and screening at Pertamina Hospital Balikpapan Year 2017. The control sample of this research is male patient age 40-55 which is not suffering from cataract treatment and screening at Pertamina Hospital Balikpapan 2017. The results showed that diabetes mellitus (OR = 4.419; 95% Cl: 1,991-9,809), economic status (OR = 2.852; 95% Cl: 1,346-6,042) Smoking habit (OR = 3,850; 95% Cl: 1,785-8,304), Occupation exposed to UV (OR = 3,217; 95% Cl: 1,523-6,795) is a risk factor for Cataract incidence. While the consumption of protein (OR = 0.110; 95% Cl: 0,046-0,264) is a protective factor incidence of cataracts. Based on multivariate analysis found that the most influential risk factors were diabetes mellitus (p = 0,000) and occupation exposed to UV (p = 0,001) on cataract incidence.

Is individual trading priced in stocks?

Individuals have long been suspected of being noise traders. We seek empirical evidence of this and suggest the individual trading weight as a proxy for noise trader risk. Based on a common stock sample of non-financial firms listed on the Korea Stock Exchange, we find that returns are higher for firms that are more densely traded by individual investors controlling for Fama and French’s (1993) three factors of market, firm size and valuation, and Carhart’s (1997) momentum factor. Furthermore, the excess return of portfolios sorted by the proportion of individual traders is an influential risk characteristic even under bull and bear market conditions. Additionally, tests based on average correlations and principal component analyses reveal that individuals generate systematic noise in the Korean stock market. Lastly, on a cross-country check, the individual trading factor is shown to affect stock returns in Taiwan as well.

The Recalcitrant Venous Leg Ulcer Unhealed After 1 Year Despite Wound Center Care: Influential Risk Factors for Nonhealing

Venous leg ulcers (VLUs) are associated with a high cost of care, loss of productivity, and reduced quality of life. Despite regular treatment of VLUs, some fail to heal. Several risk factors have previously been identified to be associated with the failure of a VLU to heal, but for the majority of publications, the definition was limited to less than a 24-week period. Furthermore, the currently available literature is sparse and often contradictory. A retrospective cohort study was performed at an academic vascular and wound center. A total of 66 VLUs were included. These patients underwent a variety of treatments based on the Society for Vascular Surgery/American Venous Forum guidelines; these included compression, débridement, skin grafting, endovenous radiofrequency ablation, ligation and stripping, sclerotherapy, perforator surgery, and iliac vein stenting. We examined risk factors in patients who failed to heal their VLU after a 52-week period of treatment in our center. Risk factors were chosen on the basis of clinical opinion and available literature. All of the following were considered: treatment disparity factors—age, sex, and race (white vs nonwhite); condition-centric factors—size of ulcer, superficial venous involvement, deep venous involvement, presence of an incompetent perforator, history of superficial venous procedure in the affected limb, and history of deep venous thrombosis in the affected limb; and potential systemic factors—hypertension, obesity, diabetes mellitus, congestive heart failure, depression, history of smoking, and presence of an inflammatory or autoimmune condition predisposing to chronic steroid use. Both univariate (unadjusted) and multivariate (adjusted) logistic regression were used to assess the magnitude of effect that a given risk factor had on healing. After 52 weeks of treatment in our center, 20 of 66 VLUs (30%) remained unhealed. Further results are shown in the Table. Several risk factors are shown to be associated with the failure to heal a VLU; some are already commonly accepted in practice, such as deep venous involvement and post-thrombotic etiology, and others are novel. The large presence of deep venous involvement in the unhealed vs healed cohort (80% vs 48%) highlights the need for a viable treatment option for deep venous disease. In regard to race, there is no significant difference in the number of visits or appropriate interventions to the superficial or deep system performed on whites vs nonwhites, implying that there is no issue with discrimination in regard to access of care at our wound center. This suggests that an alternative, possibly biologic factor is placing nonwhites at risk for not healing their VLU—a topic that would clearly benefit from future studies. In addition, the influence of depression on poor outcomes, although not significant at the multivariate level in our study, is becoming increasingly prevalent in vascular patients. Overall, it is important to consider all risk factors when evaluating a patient for VLU to coordinate an effective treatment plan.TableUnadjusted (single variable) and adjusted (multivariable) odds ratios (ORs) for risk factorsRisk factorUnadjusted OR (95% CI)PAdjusted OR (95% CI)PAge, years0.99 (0.96-1.03).781.01 (0.94-1.09).78Male0.72 (0.25-2.08).5411.80 (0.43-321.35).14Nonwhite1.38 (0.46-4.08).56189.92 (2.30-1.56 × 104).02Size of ulcer, cm21.02 (0.99-1.04).150.99 (0.95-1.03).71Superficial venous involvement0.39 (0.12-1.29).120.16 (4.9 × l0−3-5.30).31Deep venous involvement4.36 (1.26-15.06).0283.28 (1.74-4.0 × 103).025Incompetent perforator0.47 (0.16-1.37).170.004 (4.7 × l0−5-0.42).02Superficial venous surgery1.76 (0.53-5.86).360.60 (0.04-9.55).72Deep venous thrombosis12.30 (3.39-44.65)<.001492.12 (3.34-7.3 × 104).015Hypertension0.80 (0.27-2.36).691.35 (0.13-14.02).80Obesity1.71 (0.59-4.93).321.63 (0.14-18.84).69Diabetes mellitus1.03 (0.28-3.83).970.11 (2.9 × l0–3-4.23).24Congestive heart failure0.25 (0.03-2.15).210.005 (2.9 × l0–6-10.05).17Depression4.44 (1.29-15.35).01815.72 (0.82-301.96).07Smoking history1.38 (0.46-4.08).563.39 (0.14-82.56).45Inflammatory condition2.44 (0.32-18.71).39145.52 (0.77-2.7 × 104).36CI, Confidence interval.

A fast exact functional test for directional association and cancer biology applications.

Directional association measured by functional dependency can answer important questions on relationships between variables, for example, in discovery of molecular interactions in biological systems. However, when one has no prior information about the functional form of a directional association, there is not a widely established statistical procedure to detect such an association. To address this issue, here we introduce an exact functional test for directional association by examining the strength of functional dependency. It is effective in promoting functional patterns by reducing statistical power on non-functional patterns. We designed an algorithm to carry out the test using a fast branch-and-bound strategy, which achieved a substantial speedup over brute-force enumeration. On data from an epidemiological study of liver cancer, the test identified the hepatitis status of a subject as the most influential risk factor among others for the cancer phenotype. On human lung cancer transcriptome data, the test selected 1049 transcription start sites of putative noncoding RNAs directionally associated with lung cancers, stronger than 95% of 589 curated cancer genes. These predictions include non-monotonic interaction patterns, to which other routine tests were insensitive. Complementing symmetric (non-directional) association methods such as Fisher's exact test, the exact functional test is a unique exact statistical test for evaluating evidence for causal relationships.

Validation of the Screening for Complex PTSD (SkPTBS) - Revision

The aim was to develop further a screening instrument for complex posttraumatic stress disorder (cPTSD). The screening for cPTSD (SkPTBS) tests a) potential traumatic experiences, b) influential features and risk factors, and c) symptoms of cPTSD. The SkPTBS by Dorr et al. (2016) was revised according to the current ICD-11 criteria set proposal for cPTSD and is explored in its revised edition. Impacts of long-lasting interpersonal trauma were tested in inpatients of psychosomatic rehabilitation and in patients consulting a university outpatient center for trauma therapy. Patients filled out the screening at the beginning of their treatment (N=525, among these n=359 rehabilitation patients and n=157 in the outpatient center, mean age 48 years, 68% female). Later diagnosed complex PTSD as well as results of the SCID and the Interview for complex PTSD (IkPTBS) served as primary validation criteria. 88 patients (17%) were diagnosed with complex PTSD. Metric SkPTBS items were selective and the scale had an internal reliability of Cronbachs α=0.91. The one-dimensional factor structure was replicated. SkPTBS correlated moderately with posttraumatic symptoms measured by IES-15, with dissociative symptoms (DES-Taxon), depressive symptoms (in BDI-II, PHQ-9), and global symptom severity (in SCL-90-R). Finally, norms for different groups of age, diagnosis and treatment settings were developed. The SkPTBS revision is a feasible and brief instrument to identify patients at risk for complex PTSD. It is provided freely and can be applied for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

Risk Factors for Soil-Transmitted Helminthiasis in Preschool Children Living in Farmland, North Sumatera, Indonesia.

Background Disease burden from soil-transmitted helminthiasis (STH) is mainly attributed to its chronic and insidious impact on health and quality of life. Strategy recommended by World Health Organization (WHO) to control it was previously focused on school-aged children, but now preschool-aged children are involved. This study was intended to determine STH infection risk factors in preschool children. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in Suka Village, North Sumatera, Indonesia, from October to December 2016. Subjects were children aged 1 to 5 years without history of taking antihelminthic. Subjects were obtained by consecutive sampling. Demographic data and risk factors for helminthiasis were collected using questionnaire-based interview. Subjects were divided into two groups, positive and negative STH infection, based on Kato Katz method. Analysis was done using chi-square and logistic regression test. p value < 0.05 was considered significant. Results We enrolled 90 subjects in this study, with the mean age being 31.7 months. STH infection prevalence was 34.4%. Statistical analysis revealed that mother/caregiver hand washing habit (p = 0.007), mother/caregiver nail trimming habit (p = 0.018), and children nail trimming habit (p = 0.022) were significant risk factors for STH infection. Conclusion Mother/caregiver hand washing habit is the most influential risk factor for STH infection in preschool children.

РИЗИКИ І ВИКЛИКИ, ЩО СТОЯТЬ ПЕРЕД ЧОРНОЮ МЕТАЛУРГІЄЮ УКРАЇНИ

The aim of the study is to identify risks and challenges that may be a threat to the development of the mining and metallurgical complex of Ukraine (MMC). It is shown that the excess steel-making capacity in the world increases the risks of the steel producers, may lead to an excess of offers, trade disputes; low prices and low yield. It is noted that the Ukrainian ferrous metallurgy works in the harsh conditions of the world market, the hallmark of which is the uncontrolled and unpredictable growth of world prices. This leads to unstable operation of the MMC, especially in recent years. The factors that determine the potential risks in the metallurgical sector of Ukraine are given. The most influential risk factors include the following: threats to the impact of environmental factors on the future; threats of influence of the political situation in the world; the instability of the supply of raw materials and prices for finished products; change in existing trade flows of raw materials and finished products; global trade restrictions; the lag of the technical level of metallurgical production from the world; insufficient state influence on the industry; lack of industrial development strategy of Ukraine and the metallurgical industry. It is shown that the main direction of the target setting for the development of Ukrainian metallurgy in the medium term should be the development of a strategy that binds together raw materials, energy potential, steelmaking equipment, casting and rolling technologies, as well as the state and market prospects.

Identification of risk factors affecting construction of projects: The case of emerging economy

Controlling project risks has become a daunting task in construction and this can be attributed to issues such as the nature of modern projects. The challenge is that risk appears unannounced at any project phase for various reasons and thereby affecting the performance and the success of unprepared projects. The current studies that explored risk matters include Pehlivan and Öztemir (2015), Katre, and Ghaitidak (2016) amongst others. However, there is absence of unanimity from these studies on risk factors in construction. Thus, this article was instigated in order to identify and classify risk factors that affect the chances of project success. The research methodology selected for this article comprised of peer-reviewed articles between the periods of 2007 to 2017. This approach involved a comprehensive scrutiny into scholarly articles to comprehend risks in construction projects. Following a conceptual analysis, eighty factors were identified and classified under the following; technical, construction, financial, socio-political, physical, organisational, and environmental and other risks. From these categories, political instability was, found to be the most influential risk factor in construction projects and this factor was classified within the socio-political category and this category has total of 11 factors. Finding suggests the need for further empirical study.

Improving Colorectal Polyp Classification Based on Physical Examination Data—An Ensemble Learning Approach

Colorectal cancer is a common type of cancer. Due to the alarming incidence and mortality rate, it has received increasing attention on early detection and treatment. Colorectal polyps form and grow at initial stages of most colorectal cancer cases. Due to rather stringent medical resource availability and low screening compliance rate, it is more desirable in China than industrialized countries to characterize the relations between colorectal polyp occurrence and various potential determinants, including basic health information, comorbidities, and lifestyle conditions. Subsequently, one can better predict polyp incidence for each individual. In this letter, we report a data-driven modeling study to improve binary classification of colorectal polyp occurrence. We apply several machine-learning methods, particularly random forests, for physical examination and screening colonoscopy results of a Chinese cohort, to build the classifiers. Our results suggest improved prediction performance with the random forests model. Our study also provides evidence to support the general speculation that emotional status may be an influential risk factor to early colorectal cancer growth in China.

Inkontinensia Urin Pascapersalinan dan Faktor-Faktor Risiko yang Memengaruhinya

Postpartum urinary incontinence is an important and often overlooked form of maternal morbidity. The aim of thisstudy is to obtain prevalence of postpartum urinary incontinence and its influential risk factors. This is an observationalstudy. The subjects were all primipara stayed in Obstetric &amp; Gynecology of Arifin Achmad Pekanbaru – Riau hospital,between July 1st and December 31st 2014.

Is quality of life different between diabetic and non-diabetic people? The importance of cardiovascular risks.

BackgroundTo analyse and compare the impact of cardiovascular risk factors and disease on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in people with and without diabetes living in the community.MethodsWe used data of 1,905 people with diabetes and 19,031 people without diabetes from the last Spanish National Health Survey (years 2011–2012). The HRQoL instrument used was the EuroQol 5D-5L, based on time trade-off scores. Matching methods were used to assess any differences in the HRQoL in people with and without diabetes with the same characteristics (age, gender, education level, and healthy lifestyle), according to cardiovascular risk factors and diseases. Disparities were also analysed for every dimension of HRQoL: mobility, daily activities, personal care, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression.ResultsThere were no significant differences in time trade-off scores between people with and without diabetes when cardiovascular risk factors or established cardiovascular disease were not present. However, when cardiovascular risk factors were present, the HRQoL score was significantly lower in people with diabetes than in those without. This difference was indeed greater when cardiovascular diseases were present. More precisely, people with diabetes and any of the cardiovascular risk factors, who have not yet developed any cardiovascular disease, report lower HRQoL, 0.046 TTO score points over 1 (7.93 over 100 in the VAS score) compared to those without diabetes, and 0.14 TTO score points of difference (14.61 over 100 in the VAS score) if cardiovascular diseases were present. In fact, when the three risk factors were present in people with diabetes, HRQoL was significantly lower (0.10 TTO score points over 1 and 10.86 points over 100 in VAS score), obesity being the most influential risk factor.ConclusionsThe presence of established cardiovascular disease and/or cardiovascular risk factors, specially obesity, account for impaired quality of life in people with diabetes.

Comparative seroprevalence and risk factor analysis of Trypanosoma evansi infection in equines from different agro-climatic zones of Punjab (India).

As parasitaemia is low and fluctuating during the chronic stage of infection, accurate detection of Trypanosoma evansi in blood is difficult. The primary aims of this investigation were to assess for the first time the seroprevalence of T. evansi in all agro-climatic zones of Punjab, by indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA) and card agglutination test (CATT/T. evansi), and to evaluate the risk factors associated with latent trypanosomosis. A total of 319 equine serum samples collected from 12 districts of Punjab (India) belonging to different agro-climatic zones revealed 39 (12.23%) and 9 (2.82%) samples to be positive by CATT/T. evansi and iELISA, respectively. The highest prevalence was recorded from the Ludhiana district (42.86% and 7.14% by CATT/T. evansi and iELISA, respectively) in the central plain zone (for which the overall prevalence was 15% and 4.17%, respectively). There was fair agreement between the tests for the detection of T. evansi (kappa = 0.345). Species was the most influential risk factor for infection, with odds ratios (ORs) of 2.81 and 5.63 for donkeys/ mules, in comparison with horses, by CATT/T. evansi and iELISA, respectively. The female equine population (OR = 3.13, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.32-7.67 [CATT]) was found to be at a higher risk of seropositivity for T. evansi, particularly on 'unorganised' (inappropriately managed) farms (OR = 3.18, 95% CI = 1.53- 6.65 [CATT]) and among animals used for commercial purposes (OR = 2.51, 95% CI = 1.20-5.21 [CATT]). In conclusion, to declare disease-free status, use of the iELISA followed by retesting of suspect samples by CATT/T. evansi is suggested.

Efektifitas Yoga Ketawa terhadap Penurunan Tekanan Darah pada Lansia dengan Hipertensi Derajat II di Panti Wredha Salib Putih Salatiga

&lt;p&gt;Old age is often attacked the cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension. Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia (2012) states that hypertension is one of the most influential risk factors for the incidence of heart disease and blood vessels. High blood pressure continuously increases the burden of the arteries slowly. The arteries undergo hardening process becomes thick and rigid, thus reducing its elasticity. Hypertension can also lead to heart disease because if high blood pressure is left without regular treatment, the heart must pump very strongly to push blood into the arteries, over time the walls of the heart muscle become thicker. An abnormally enlarged heart is an unhealthy heart because the heart becomes stiff and the beat tends to be irregular. This will make pumping less effective and eventually lead to heart failure. Pharmacologic treatment using drugs have the risk of side effects. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of laughter yoga as non-pharmacological therapy in the elderly with hypertension by measuring the difference in blood pressure before and after being treated laughter yoga. Quantitative experimental research with pretest-posttest with a control group design.

Adopting an objective approach to criticality assessment: Learning from the past

Criticality assessment has been widely used in considering resource securement strategies. However, the selection and aggregation of the various risk factors remain a major challenge because these largely depend on subjective judgment by the evaluator. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce an objective perspective, which would develop criticality assessment as a more practical decision-making tool in combination with past subjective approaches. As a first attempt at an objective approach, this study conducted a case-based analysis of 448 supply disruption events for 22 metals. The results indicate 19 categories of causation of disruption, in which accidents, strikes, a fall in metal prices, natural disasters, and policy disputes are dominant. The analyses also reveal the differences in influential risk component between metals and supplier countries. For example, a fall in the metal price has more impact on developed supplier countries than developing countries. The knowledge gained from this case-based approach is useful in highlighting the risk components that have been overlooked in past assessments, in quantifying the integrated risk considering the relative importance of risk components, and in exploring strategies for criticality mitigation.
