Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesBounds Testing Approach to Cointegration: An Examination of Foreign Direct Investment Trade and Growth RelationshipsOteng Abayie Eric Fosu, Frimpong Joseph MagnusThis study examines the long-run impact of foreign direct investment and trade on economic growth in Ghana. Using an augmented aggregate production function (APF) growth model, we apply the bounds testing (ARDL) approach to cointegration which is more appropriate for estimation in small sample studies. The data span for the study is from 1970 to 2002. We found cointegration relations … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2006 · 9,329 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesModelling and Forecasting Volatility of Returns on the Ghana Stock Exchange Using Garch ModelsFrimpong Joseph Magnus, Oteng-Abayie Eric FosuThis paper models and forecasts volatility (conditional variance) on the Ghana Stock Exchange using a random walk (RW), GARCH(1,1), EGARCH(1,1), and TGARCH(1,1) models. The unique ‘three days a week’ Databank Stock Index (DSI) was used to study the dynamics of the Ghana stock market volatility over a 10-year period. The competing volatility models were estimated and their specification and forecast … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 7,551 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimate of Safe Angle for Cut Slopes Under Different Geology and Rainfall Intensity in Central NepalPrabin Shrestha, Khomendra Bhandari, Mahendra Acharya et al.This research has been carried out on a cut slope of Kathmandu-Terai Fast Track Road near Koppugaon located at Dakshinkali Municipality, Kathmandu. The cutting of the slope without considering the possible effects of geological parameters of slope material may cause unexpected slope failures which may cause loss of lives and properties. This research deals with the effects of rainfall and … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 26 Nov 2024 · 9,628 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractEditorial Commentary: Challenge of Non–AIDS-Defining Cancers (NADCs), Focusing on Trans Activation Response Element (TAR) RNA Embedding ExosomesLechuang Chen, Ge JinGlobally, 37.9 million people were living with HIV at the end of 2018 (Organization, 2018). Cancer is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in AIDS patients and chronically HIV-infected people. With the aid of combination Antiretroviral Therapy (ART), people living with HIV (PLWH) have a longer life span. However, because the virus is not completely eradicated, PLWH under antiretroviral … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 28 Nov 2019 · 6,657 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicroarray Analysis of Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Responses to Bacterial LipopolysaccharideJoe Minta James, J. Yun, Sandy Der, Shikha RanaAccumulating evidence suggest a causal role of bacterial and viral infections in atherogenesis. Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been shown to stimulate resting vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC) with the production of inflammatory cytokines and modulation of quiescent cells to the proliferative and synthetic phenotype. To comprehensively identify biologically important genes associated with LPS-induced SMC phenotype modulation, we compared the transcriptomes … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,994 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLeveraging Modified Cascaded Fully Convolutional Neural Networks and Optimized Swin U-Net for Liver Lesion PredictionSugandha Chakraverti, Tejaswi Khanna, Vijay ShuklaLiver lesions are abnormal growths that can develop for various reasons, some of which are noncancerous (benign) while others are cancerous. Machine learning and, deep learning techniques are employed for liver health assessment and lesion detection, but the quality and, diversity of training data can hinder the performance, leading to overfitting or underfitting. These models often need extensive pre-processing and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 10 · 8 Oct 2026 · 372 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSocial Protection Cash Transfers and Gendered Equality: An Analysis of Gendered Differences in Poverty Reduction and Income DistributionJulius OkelloThis research investigates key determinants of poverty reduction and income distribution in eastern Uganda's Teso sub-region. Regression analysis reveals significant negative coefficients for access to healthcare (β = -0.414, p = 0.029) and road infrastructure (β = -0.363, p = 0.014), indicating lower poverty levels in communities with better access. Employment (β = -2.8, p = 0.000) and income (β … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 5 Aug 2026 · 942 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBlockchain-Enabled Privacy-Preserving Access Control for Electronic Health Records Using Smart ContractsG. Bhanu Prasad, M. Venkateswara RaoElectronic medical records are crucial for providing high-quality healthcare, but they also raise serious privacy and security issues. Traditional centralised storage systems are vulnerable to manipulation, hacking, and illegal access. This study suggests a smart contract-based blockchain architecture that provides decentralised, unaltered, and privacy-preserving access control for EMRs. The model integrates cryptographic techniques like AES-256 encryption and SHA-256 hashing for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 6 · 22 Jun 2026 · 1,306 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCulture and Religion Meaning-Making Coping Strategies in Wartime: Insights from a Qualitative Study on the Coping Experiences of UkrainiansFereshteh Ahmadi, Nataliia Melnyk et al.This study explores how Ukrainians use religious and spiritual meaning-making coping strategies during the ongoing war, shaped by cultural traditions, historical experiences, and personal circumstances. Its aim is to deepen understanding of culturally relevant resilience mechanisms in extreme adversity. Using a qualitative design, 67 semi-structured interviews were conducted across diverse Ukrainian regions between January 2024 and June 2025. Participants varied … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 8 May 2026 · 2,435 accessesView PDFCite
