ABSTRACTObjective:The effectiveness of air traffic restriction in containing the spread of infectious diseases is full of controversy in prior literature. In January 2020, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) announced air traffic restriction in response to the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. This study’s aim is to empirically examine the policy effectiveness.Method:The data from 2 third-party platforms are used in this investigation. The COVID-19 data from the platform DXY and the air traffic data from Airsavvi are matched to each other. The robust panel regression with controlling city effect and time effect is conducted.Results:The curvilinear relations are found between the air traffic restriction and the existing cases, and the recovery rate (quadratic term = 9.006 and −0.967, respectively). As the strength of air traffic restriction is growing, the negative effect (-8.146) of air traffic restriction on the existing cases and the positive effect (0.961) of air traffic restriction on the recovery rate, respectively, begin decreasing.Conclusion:On the macro level, the air traffic restriction may help alleviate the growth of existing cases and help raise the recovery rate of COVID-19 in megacities of China, but both these effects will marginally recede as the restriction strength is intensifying.

Background: During an office visit, the provider has the important cognitive task of attending to the patient while actively using the electronic health record (EHR).  Prior literature suggests that EHR may have a positive effect on simple tasks, but a negative effect on tasks that require complex cognitive processes.  No study has examined the provider’s perception of EHR on multiple distinct aspects of the office visit.Methods: We surveyed providers/preceptors regarding their perception of EHR on multiple aspects of the office visit.  We summarized their EHR utilization history and their perceptions of the EHR during the visit using descriptive statistics.  We tested for associations between time spent using the EHR and distinct aspects of the visit using Chi-square tests of association.Results: In total, 83 providers/preceptors reported use of EHR (response rate 52%). Provider/preceptors reported an overall negative effect of EHR on the patient-provider connection, but an overall positive effect on the review of medications/medical records, communication between providers, review of results with patients and review of follow-up to testing results with patients. The effect of EHR on history taking and teaching students was neutral.  We observed no correlation between the provider’s time spent using the EHR and their perception of its effectiveness.Conclusions:  Providers reported a positive perception of EHR on aspects of the office visit that involved a single cognitive task.  However, providers reported a negative perception of EHR on patient-provider connection, which involves a high degree of cognitive processing.

The research objective was to determine the influence of third party fund, Non-perfoming loans (NPLs), Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) on consumer loans disbursed. The analytical tool used panel data regression. The sample used in this study are 7 (seven) bank based on the type of operation. Results of regression, found that variable third party fund positive and significant impact on consumer loans. Variable Non-perfoming loans (NPLs) and not significant positive effect on consumer loans. This is possible due to high NPLs in the bank's financial statements only describe the overall value of the credit. Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) individually have a significant negative effect on consumer loans. The study reinforces previous findings that high capital still has not been followed by increased consumer credit.

We investigate how the diversity of consumers’ perceived value in different remanufacturing modes affects remanufacturing decision-making. We establish a two-stage optimal decision-making model of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) remanufacturing and a noncooperative game model of third party remanufacturer (TPR) remanufacturing and then analyze the optimal decisions of OEM and TPR. Comparing the effects of consumers’ perceived value on remanufacturing decision-making in different modes, we find that when OEM remanufactures products, consumers’ perceived value has a negative effect on new products’ price and quantity and has a positive effect on remanufactured products’ quantity and when TPR remanufactures products, consumers’ perceived value has a positive effect on new products price and quantity and has a negative effect on remanufactured products’ quantity. Compared with OEM remanufacturing, TPR remanufacturing can raise the profits of OEM and whole closed-loop supply chain, but it will lower the quantity of remanufacturing products.

This study aims to determine the effect of interest rates, exchange rates, third party funds and NPF / NPL Mortgages on the distribution of banking mortgages in Indonesia. It is intended that Islamic banks are able to make optimal policies in the distribution of mortgages and mitigation so that the Islamic banking market share can develop. The data required is secondary data from the Indonesian Banking Statistics report, Islamic Banking Statistics, and Indonesian Economic and Financial Statistics for the period October 2014 - May 2019. Based on Multiple Linear Regression, it is known that the simultaneous test results of all variables together have a positive significant effect in the distribution of banking mortgages, and in the partial test it is known that the interest rates and third party funds have a significant positive effect on mortgages in sharia and conventional banking. The exchange rate has a significant positive effect on Islamic banking mortgages, and a significant negative effect on conventional banking mortgages. NPF / NPL mortgage has an insignificant positive effect on the mortgages of both banks. So it can be concluded that the variable interest rates, exchange rates, and third party funds affect the distribution of Islamic banking mortgages and conventional banking mortgages, while the variable NPF / NPL mortgages have no effect.Keywords: Interest rates, exchange rates, third party fund, non performing finance, non performing loan

Forecasting has been a key factor in the planning and development of civil aviation. This paper surveys current techniques in air traffic forecasting. The advantages and disadvantages of the techniques, as well as the criteria for selecting of a particular technique are discussed. Then, the forecasting work of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is comprehensively introduced, i.e. the traffic data, the methodological framework, and the major models. It involves ICAO’s practices under this subject in the last two decades. ICAO’s forecasting has long been a reliable reference for its 191 member states. In this paper, main results of ICAO’s up-to-date forecasts of 2011-2030 global air traffic, both passengers and cargos, are conveyed.
