The advancement of Information Technology and Telecommunication has opened new avenues for business. These astonishing developments have led to rapid diffusion of ecommerce which is gaining popularity around the globe and it is contributing to the economic growth of country. This study aims to develop an integrative model based on different factors which can affect the growth of e-commerce in any country. For this purpose, data of 145 countries for year 2014 was obtained from different sources. Nine different Multiple Regression Models were proposed by combination of different factors in order to analyze their relative effect on growth of e-commerce. Findings suggest that the sensitivity of the e-commerce potential was highest for GNI per Capita and Readiness Sub-Index, respectively. Similarly, other factors such as education level, urbanization and social media users were also found significantly associated with e-commerce potential. However, Cyber Security and Business Prospects were found to be statistically non-significant in few of the models. The paper concludes with few suggestions for government and policy makers to increase e-commerce growth in the country

Abstract The objective was to determine effect of trucking distance on sale price of beef calf and feeder cattle lots sold through Superior Livestock Video Auctions from 2010 through 2018. Data analyzed were collected from 211 livestock video auctions. There were 42,043 beef calf lots and 19,680 feeder cattle lots used in these analyses. Six states (Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Texas) of delivery comprised 70% of calf lots and 83% of feeder cattle lots and were used in these analyses. All lot characteristics that could be accurately quantified or categorized were used to develop multiple regression models that evaluated effects of independent factors using backwards selection. A value of P < 0.05 was used to maintain a factor in the final models. Based upon reported state of origin and state of delivery, lots were categorized into one of the following trucking distance categories: 1) Within-State, 2) Short-Haul, 3) Medium-Haul, and 4) Long-Haul. Average weight and number of calves in lots analyzed was 259.2 ± 38.4 kg BW and 100.6 ± 74.3 head, respectively. Average weight and number of feeder cattle in lots analyzed was 358.4 ± 34.3 kg BW and 110.6 ± 104.1 head, respectively. Beef calf lots hauled Within-State sold for more ($169.24/45.36 kg; P < 0.0001) than other trucking distance categories (Table 1). Long-Haul calf lots sold for the lowest (P < 0.0001) price ($166.70/45.36 kg). Within-State and Short-Haul feeder cattle lots sold for the greatest (P < 0.0001) price ($149.96 and $149.81/45.36 kg, respectively; Table 2). Long-Haul feeder cattle lots sold for the lowest (P < 0.0001) price, $148.43/45.36 kg. These results indicate there is a price advantage for lots expected to be hauled shorter distances, likely because of cost and risk associated with transportation.

Introduction: High burdens of basal ganglia-perivascular spaces (BG-PVS) are often attributed to underlying hypertensive cerebral small vessel disease (HTN-CSVD). Although PVS are thought to arise from decreased perivascular drainage related to changes in arterial pulsatility, the contribution of pulsatility changes from nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) has not been studied. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that NVAF patients have a higher burden of BG-PVS than HTN-CSVD patients, possibly through hemodynamic factors related to NVAF. Methods: Through an observational single-center study of consecutive stroke patients, we compared BG-EPVS severity between 136 patients with NVAF-related ischemic stroke (NVAF-IS) and 107 patients with HTN-CSVD-related intracerebral hemorrhage (HTN-ICH) without NVAF. Within the NVAF cohort, we also built multiple regression models to evaluate independent effects of NVAF-related factors on BG-PVS. All multiple regression models were adjusted for age, hypertension, sex, and neuroimaging markers of CSVD (extent of white matter hyperintensities (WMH), presence of lacunes, and cerebral microbleeds). Results: Patients with NVAF-IS were older than patients with HTN-ICH (75 + 12 vs. 64 + 13, p < 0.0001); however, there was no difference in sex between groups ( p = 0.6). Severe BG-PVS (defined as > 20 PVS in the BG) were found in 42.6% of NVAF-IS patients vs. 8.4% of HTN-ICH ( p < 0.0001). Even after multivariate adjustment, the presence of NVAF remained significantly related to BG-PVS ( p = 0.001). Within the NVAF cohort, CHA2DS2-VASc was associated with the presence of severe BG-PVS ( p = 0.003) despite controlling for other covariates. When CHA2DS2-VASc was replaced with its individual components in the same regression model, congestive heart failure (CHF, p = 0.017), WMH burden ( p = 0.009), and age ( p = 0.02) were found to be predictors of severe BG-PVS. Conclusions: Severe BG-PVS were significantly more common in NVAF patients compared to HTN-CSVD patients. NVAF-related features (CHA2DS2-VASc score) and CHF were associated with higher burdens of BG-PVS. These findings suggest that NVAF might play a role in the development of BG-PVS, conceivably through hemodynamic factors.

Coastal sediment can be classified by functional bottom type, depending on whether cohesive fine material is eroded (E), transported (T) or deposited/accumulated (A) there. The assessment of such bottom dynamic conditions is useful in many ways, including as a fundament for structuring mass balance models. In this paper more than 200 recently investigated Swedish coastal areas were analyzed using geographic information systems (GIS). Statistical relationships between morphometry, the average proportion of A-areas (BA) and the average critical depth (DTA), which separates ET-areas from A-areas, were investigated. Many morphometric parameters showed significant correlation with both BA and DTA and multiple regression models were obtained that could explain much of the variation in these parameters. Parameters describing sheltering effects from islands, mean depth and mean slope were important in this context. Large differences were found in empirical BA-values from two different sources. Furthermore, a new empirical dataset was presented for 209 Swedish coastal areas.
