Law makers have now decided a derivative taxation novelty in Germany. It was unclear how the new law impacted the profitability of investments in comparison of the former taxation (T1). The purpose of the study was to find an answer to the research question: How does the derivative taxation novelty (T2) in Germany impacts the profitability of derivative hedging strategy returns in the German financial market? For this study, a comparative, quasi-experimental research design was selected. ETF and warrant prices, a simple moving average (SMA), along with a beta hedging model, and a t-test were computed. The T(2) had an significant higher effect compared to T(1), with 4-17% and a t-test with t(170) = 2.5042, p < .000. The T(2) unfolded its full potential with an investment amount of €30K, while the share of T(2) was 2% per month of the investment amount when hedging with a SMA(50) and a warrant with a omega =20 ω (leverage) strategy. Conservative retail investors that followed a low risk short warrant strategy, needed to hedge large investment positions, had a frequent hedging requirement, which generated larger losses, were affected the most by T(2). I recommended to closer verify equality for sustainable investing. The study can be relevant for law-makers, financial advisors, banks, online brokers, retail traders, finance students to learn more about the effect of T(2) on their investments.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa possesses a variety of virulence factors that may contribute to its pathogenicity. Dissemination of resistant and highly virulent pathogens is also the main problem worldwide. Thus this study aimed to determine the frequency of oprI, Las B and toxA virulence genes among the clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa species. A total of 100 P. aeruginosa clinical isolates were collected from Hospitals and laboratories from different specimens during the period from August 2019 to November 2020. The isolates were re- identified using routine culture techniques, and multiplex PCR was applied to detect the presence of these virulence genes among them. It was found that the frequency of virulence genes were (22%) Las B, (55%) OprI, (15%) Tox A and (8%) mixed of OprI and Tox A. These genes were found with different percentage among the studied variables with the higher frequency among males, wound samples, except OprI were among 26-36 years age group and significantly among inpatients than out patients. The study concluded that all isolates carried either one or two of studied genes in different percentage while OprI represented the most predominant gene. Determination of different virulence genes of P. aeruginosa isolates suggests that they are associated with different levels of intrinsic virulence and pathogenicity.

Unani system of medicine is based on the theory of Mizaj and Akhlat which is considered as the basics of Unani therapeutics. Mizaj is defined as the admixture of four humours (Akhlat), the quantity and quality of which determines the particular Mizaj of an individual. Every individual has its own unique Mizaj (temperament), hence reacts to various internal and external stimuli viz.air, water, diet, drug, climate, emotions, body reactions etc. differently according to temperament. Hence, Mizaj plays an important role in diagnosis and treatment of any disease. Since, Hypothyroidism is considered as one of the most common endocrine disorders in which patient has somnolence, fatigue, cold intolerance, constipation, loss of libido, gain in weight etc. According to the classical texts of Unani Medicine, it is the concentration, quality and quantity of humours which forms the base and cause of health and disease in an individual. As per Unani doctrine, Mar’d (Disease) is caused either due to Su’ Mizaj (abnormal temperament), Su’tarkib( abnormal composition/structure) or Taffaruk Ittesal (discontinuity).This study was conducted at Regional Research Institute of Unani Medicine, University of Kashmir ,Srinagar Jammu & Kashmir to evaluate the Mizaj (Temperament) of patients of Hypothyroidism. Out of 60 patients enrolled for the study, 52 (86.6%) were Balghami, 03 (5%) were Damwi, 05 (8.3%) were Safravi and none was of Sawdawi Mizaj. Thus, it was evident that Hypothyroidism is more common in Balghami Mizaj patients.

The women are deemed inappropriate to be involved in politics. It certainly detrimental to women because in fact, in terms of women’ abilities, they have same abilities as men. The research is a sociological-law research with statutory, conceptual and comparative approaches. The research was conducted in Maluku province, Indonesia. The results show that in the view of Maluku society, women are Limditi Fenreu or glorified or worshiped, but also interpreted as being held. The role of women is sufficient to show their role to be involved in development, although in a small number and not comparable to the presence of men. Even to the village government. In Maluku, representation of women in village government leadership is only around 1.5% (one-point five percent), this is very small when compared to the total number of villages in Maluku. The lack of representation is influenced by factors of strong patriarchal culture, low willingness of women as a result of their low ability and unavailability of opportunities or opportunities as a result of legal arrangements that do not provide legal certainty. Women in government leadership in Maluku are transformational leadership with a democratic government leadership style.

Pain in the knee joint has become one of the most common pathologies that are affecting humans of all age groups in the modern world. Many of the arthropathies are resolved with supportive care and complete tests but some of the diseases require early diagnosis and prompt treatment to prevent any long time effects. Doppler ultrasonography has revolutionized our way of approaching these diseases. It has several advantages over other imaging techniques. It is non-invasive and there is no use of a contrast dye which permits us to use this technique even in those patients who are hyper allergic. There is no use of radiations in ultrasonography. It can detect various minor abnormalities like cartilage thinning, partial or complete tears, synovial joints, abnormalities in the bony structure, inflammation debris in the joint, hematoma, and any ligamentous injury. It also helps us in the localization of the injury which further assist us in several aspects, one of which being the administration of the drugs with the help of an injection at the most optimal site.

Structural systems consist of sub-systems and elements. Connection elements are needed for the subsystems and assembly and integration of these systems to the main system. Because the main system can fulfill its functional tasks when its assembly and integration with the subsystem is completed. Systematic static strength and dynamic behavior of structures, load bearing material and static cross-sectional properties as well as the strength and stiffness properties of the connections have a significant effect. The effect of the stiffness of the connection elements is higher in thin structural systems where the cross-sectional dimensions are much lower than the system dimensions. Assembly and integration are provided by using connection elements also in thin structural systems such as steel structure, scaffolding and rack structures. Therefore, the strength and stabilization of corner connections and fixing elements affect the entire system. However, while making systematic calculations, the structures, staying on the safe side, are modeled with rigid or rotatory hinged approach. When the connections are modeled as rotatory hinges, larger cross sections are required and support elements are added to prevent the system from becoming kinematic and collapse. With this approach, in buildings that require a lot of connection elements, the weight of the building increases too much and thus the cost increases. On the other hand, when the system is modeled with rigid approach, since the joints are unnecessarily excessively safe and the system's elasticity is very low, sudden overloads may result in collapse accidents and cause loss of life. For this reason, connection elements, especially in thin structures, must be modeled with real stiffness values and verified by tests under the prescribed loads. The purpose of this research is to examine the structural system design approach by modeling thin structure connection elements realistically and to create sensitivity in this regard. With this modeling method, it is aimed both to reduce costs and to prevent possible accidents caused by wrong modeling.
