One of the most debated issue in the field of corporate finance is the relationship between dividend policy and market price of share. There is good amount of literature for and against this issue. The present study has been undertaken to evaluate the effect of dividend policy on market prices of shares of Nifty 50 companies listed on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) for 2008–2017. The data have been analysed by employing multiple panel data regression models namely pooled regression, fixed effect model and random effect model. The Hausman test has been used to suggest the most appropriate regression model. The result of the Hausman test indicates that random effect model is more relevant in describing the relationship among the given variables. The results of the random effect regression model support the relevant approaches of dividend policy. Thus, we conclude that there is significant effect of dividend policy on the stock price of firms.

In recent years, the relationship between Cyp2C19*2 gene polymorphism and clopidogrel resistance reflected by platelet function assay has been studied extensively, but there is no clear conclusion yet. In order to evaluate the relationship between Cyp2C19*2 gene polymorphism and clopidogrel resistance more accurately, meta-analysis was conducted in this study. The I2 value taking 50% as the limit, the heterogeneity is judged as high or low, and then a random effect model or a fixed effect model is selected for statistical analysis. PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, CNKI, and China Wanfang database were searched, and the related literatures from the establishment of the database to May 2020 were collected and analyzed by STATA 15.0 software. A total of 3,073 patients were involved in 12 studies, including 1,174 patients with clopidogrel resistance and 1,899 patients with non-clopidogrel resistance. The results of this study showed that allele model (A vs. G): OR = 2.42 (95%CI: 1.97–2.98); dominant model (AA+GA vs. GG): OR = 2.74 (95%CI: 2.09–3.59); recessive model (AA vs. GA+GG): OR = 4.07 (95%CI: 3.06–5.41); homozygous model (AA vs. GG): OR = 5.70 (95%CI: 4.22–7.71); heterozygote model (GA vs. GG): OR = 2.32 (95%CI: 1.76–3.07), the differences were statistically significant. Also, the analysis of the Ethnicity subgroup indicated that the Asian allele model and the other four gene models were statistically significant. In conclusion, Cyp2C19*2 gene polymorphism is strongly associated with clopidogrel resistance. Allele A, genotype GA, AA, and GG + GA can increase clopidogrel resistance, especially in the Asian population.

Residents are all people who live in the geographical area of Indonesia for six months or more and or those who have been domiciled for less than six months but aim to settle. Population growth is caused by two components, namely: fertility and mortality. To find out how big the relationship between the  population and the number of births and deaths in each sub-district of Semarang, must observed in several specific time periods and places at once. So in this study, the panel data regression method was used. In panel data regression testing, the results show that the panel data regression model formed to determine the factors that influence the level of population is the random effect model. In this model all assumptions are fulfilled. Significant factors affecting population are number of births. Births and deaths affect the population of 99.95% and the remaining 0.05% is influenced by other factors not examined Penduduk adalah semua orang yang berdomisili di wilayah geografis Indonesia selama enam bulan atau lebih dan atau mereka yang berdomisili kurang dari enam bulan tetapi bertujuan menetap. Pertumbuhan penduduk diakibatkan oleh dua komponen yaitu: fertilitas dan mortalitas. Untuk mengetahui seberapa besar keterkaitan antara jumlah penduduk dengan jumlah kelahiran dan kematian di setiap kecamataan Kota Semarang, harus diamati dalam beberapa periode waktu tertentu dan beberapa tempat secara bersamaan. Sehingga dalam penelitian ini digunakan metode regresi data panel. Dalam pengujian regresi data panel, didapatkan hasil bahwa Model regresi data panel yang terbentuk untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi tingkat jumlah penduduk adalah model random Effect. Pada model tersebut semua asumsi terpenuhi. Faktor yang signifikan mempengaruhi jumlah penduduk adalah jumlah kelahiran. Kelahiran dan kematian mempengaruhi jumlah penduduk sebesar 99.95% dan sisanya sebesar 0.05% dipengaruhi oleh faktor- faktor lain yang tidak di teliti.
