This study examined the relationships between different leadership styles and bank performance in Saudi Arabia. The partial least squared was conducted to assess the impacts of autocratic, democratic, laissez-faire, and transformational leaderships on financial performance of banks using data from 199 responses collected from 7 Saudi banks. The findings revealed that autocratic leadership had a significant positive effect on performance, while democratic leadership's influence was insignificant. Transformational leadership did not significantly impact outcomes despite correlating strongly with democratic leadership. Laissez-faire leadership was found to negatively influence transformational leadership. These findings provide useful insights yet also merit deeper examination of moderating factors. Autocratic leadership appears suitable given local preferences for hierarchy, but risks stifling creativity long-term. Democratic leadership fosters innovation but still be unable to affect positively the decision-making efficiency. Transformational leadership unexpectedly doesn’t positively affect the financial performance of banks in Saudi Arabia.

Mars, our neighboring planet in the solar system, boasts an environment characterized by its unique and ever-changing nature, shaped by a multitude of factors. To comprehend the intricate processes underlying the formation and transformation of Mars' atmosphere and its influence on climate patterns and potential habitability, we embark on a comprehensive exploration of three pivotal elements. The influence of solar wind, a continuous stream of charged particles emanating from the Sun, plays a pivotal role in molding the Martian environment. It triggers atmospheric sputtering, a phenomenon responsible for atmospheric erosion, and contributes to the development of miniature magnetospheres around the planet. The enigmatic Martian magnetic field, although waning in strength, still retains its importance in understanding habitability and the planet's geological evolution. Once generated by a liquid core, this magnetic field provides valuable insights into Mars' history. Dust storms, another remarkable feature, are driven by various factors and influenced by Mars' magnetic field, exerting a profound impact on climate and surface conditions. Their intensity and frequency fluctuate, affecting the planet's overall environment. Additionally, delving into atmospheric escape processes, especially the loss of water, sheds light on the evolution of Mars' atmosphere and its history. In sum, by examining the interplay of these phenomena, we glean invaluable insights into the dynamic nature of Mars and its enduring influence on the planet's ever-evolving environment.

Introduction: The osteometric dimensions of the lower end of the femur have significant clinical implications, particularly in the context of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Accurate measurements are crucial for the design of femoral components in TKA, which can influence surgical outcomes. This study aims to determine the measurements of different variables of the lower end of the femur, including femoral condylar width, intercondylar width and depth, and the depth of the medial and lateral condyles, in a Bangladeshi population. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 50 dried femurs collected from three medical colleges in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Measurements were obtained using digital sliding calipers and were rounded to two decimal places. Data analysis was performed using SPSS. Result: Statistical analysis revealed that 56% of the femurs were right-sided and 44% were left-sided. The mean femoral bicondylar width was 69.78 ± 5.38 mm, falling mostly in the "Above Average" range (30%). The mean intercondylar width was 23.77 ± 1.55 mm, with 50% falling in the "Medium" range. Other variables like femur medial condylar width had a mean of 31.05 ± 1.74 mm. Conclusion: Observationally, the study successfully delineates the osteometric dimensions of the lower end of the femur in a Bangladeshi cohort. The statistical results not only fulfill the study's initial aim but also provide a nuanced understanding of the osteometric variations. These findings are instrumental for clinicians in the design and customization of femoral components in TKA, thereby potentially enhancing surgical outcomes and patient satisfaction. The data also lay the groundwork for future research in this area.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNA, approximately 18-23 nucleotides that can post-transcriptionally regulate the expression of complementary mRNAs. MiRNAs have been found to play a critical role in a broad spectrum of biological processes, such as developmental timing, cell death, cell proliferation, hematopoiesis, and nervous system patterning. Here, we aimed to investigate the possible upregulation of miR-141 in cervical cancer cells and to confirm the influential role of miR-141 in cervical cancer cell proliferation. The level of miR-141 in HeLa cells has been assessed using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Cell morphology and a number of living HeLa cells were achieved upon transfection with either precursor miR-141 (pre-miR-141) or a specific inhibitor. MTT assay and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) production were monitored to assess the potential toxic effect of miR-141 in cancer cells. ELISA assay has been used to monitor the produced cytokines from transfected HeLa cells. Notably, the expression of miR-141 significantly increased in HeLa cells compared to the normal cervical HCK1T cell line. Transfection of HeLa cells with an inhibitor, antagonist miR-141, showed a potent effect on cancer cell viability, unlike the transfection of pre-miR-141. HeLa cells transfected with pre-miR-141 showed decreased levels of interleukin 13 (IL-13). Meanwhile, the transfection of miR-141 specific inhibitor showed an increasing level of produced IL-10 and a decreasing level of IL-10, indicating the role of miR-141 in avoiding programmed cell death in HeLa cells. Together, these data uncover the role of miR-141 in supporting cervical cancer progression and provide miR-141 as a believable therapeutic target.

This study investigates the impact of external debt on the economic growth of Laos, with a specific focus on the evolving structure of external debt in the country spanning 1995 to 2020. It employs an Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model to establish long-term cointegration among key economic variables. The variables under scrutiny include human capital, labor force participation, external debt, inflation, and exchange rates, which are analyzed for their roles in shaping economic growth in Laos. In the long term, the study identifies robust and statistically significant relationships. Notably, human capital and the labor force emerge as influential drivers of economic growth, with coefficients of 2.0594 and 0.0591, respectively. Conversely, there is a substantial negative correlation between the external debt ratio per GDP and inflation rate with economic growth. This indicates that increases in these variables are associated with diminished economic expansion over time. In the short term, the study reveals that human capital and labor force participation positively impact Laos' economic growth. In contrast, the short-term effects of the external debt ratio, inflation rate, and exchange rate are adverse, indicating potential economic challenges that need to be addressed promptly. Based on findings, this study provides valuable insights into the determinants of economic growth in Laos, both in the long and short terms. These findings can inform policymakers and researchers in the development of more effective economic strategies, taking into account Laos' unique economic context.

This paper conducts a comprehensive analysis of the literature to provide a thorough understanding of the origins and development of management accounting, which has experienced increased popularity, particularly in the past twenty years. This paper undertakes a critical examination of the extensive criticism around the perceived decline in the relevance of management accounting in effectively improving performance within the context of a contemporary, dynamic company environment. This paper aims to enhance understanding of the simultaneous utilization of both classic and contemporary management accounting procedures. The study conducted a comprehensive analysis of the prevailing degree of interest in the adoption of management accounting methods in both developed and emerging nations. The examination of relevant literature has yielded a critical analysis that indicates the origins of management accounting may be traced back to the industrial revolution that occurred in the 1900s. The study also indicated that management accounting is subject to ongoing development as organizations encounter novel challenges requiring resolution. Furthermore, it was found that management accounting approaches employed in the early 1900s remain relevant and useful in contemporary contexts. The school of thinking that argues for the diminished significance of management accounting has been refuted on the basis that classic management accounting practices employed in the 1900s continue to hold relevance in contemporary times. The study proposes the use of management accounting practices as they enhance the organization's competitive advantage and generate value.
