This research is intended to identify the fundamentals of stock valuation and utilize them in the macro analysis and micro valuation of two major stock exchanges ‘Tadawul’ and ‘Dubai Financial Market’. These stock exchanges are compared in terms of their strengths and weaknesses according to significant economic indicators, alongside essential stock market determinants, all the while highlighting relevant relationships among them. Upon assessment, GDP has a strong influence on the valuation of the market and KSA’s GDP growth in the last two years has been slightly higher than UAE’s growth, affecting projected GDP growth rates. Tadawul performed better than DFM in P/E ratio indicating a higher willingness to invest in the Saudi stock exchange as well as a higher return expectation. DFM’s stocks are highly undervalued. It can be concluded that both stock exchanges are strong and competitive respectfully, and their potential for growth depends on the economic market that they originate from.

Objective: To compare the clean intermittent self-catheterization (CISC) with continuous indwelling catheterization (CIDC) in relieving acute urinary retention (AUR) due to benign enlargement of prostate (BEP). Materials and Methods :A total 60 patients attending in urology department of Dhaka Medical college hospital were included according to inclusion criteria ,Patients were randomized by lottery into two groups namely group –A and group –B for CISC and IDC drainage respectively . Thus total 60 patients 30 in each group completed study. Results : Most men can safely be managed as out-patients after AUR due to BPH. The degree of mucosal congestion and inflammation within the bladder was found to be lower in those using CISC and the bladder capacity in these patients was also found higher.Patients with an IDC had a high incidence of UTIs then that of patients with CISC. During the period of catheterization the incidence of UTI was 43.3% in group B in comparison to 40% in group A; before TURP 36% in group B in comparison to 10% incidence in group A.According to patient’s opinion CISC is better than IDC in the management of AUR. Experiencing bladder spasm, reporting blood in urine, management difficulties, incidence and severity of pain were less in CISC group, and the method of CISC was well accepted by patients as well as their family members. Conclusion: From the current study it may be suggested that CISC is better technique for management of AUR patient due to BPH than IDC. It can also be very helpful when surgery must be delayed or avoided due to any reasons in this group of patients. Bangladesh Journal of Urology, Vol. 21, No. 2, July 2018 p.105-110

Sukuk and Bonds has differences and similarities. Fundamental differences between sukuk and bonds are first, underlying asset in every sukuk issuance, concept of profit loss sharing and the use of Islamic contracts. Whereas conducted research in practice of differences between sukuk and bonds are still an on-going discussion. This study aims to add the evidence in the discussion regarding whether there is differences between sukuk and bonds in the world of practice, provide investment preferences as well as educating investors in choosing sukuk or bonds as a sustainable and smooth instrument. The method used is Mann Whitney U-Test to test whether there is a different between yield to maturity (return) and standard deviation (risk) of both instruments. Using secondary data of Retail Sukuk (SR) and Retail Bonds (ORI) period 2008-2017 obtained from Indonesia Stock Exchange, Indonesia Bond Market Directory and Indonesia Bond Pricing Agency. The result shows that there is no significance difference of retail sukuk return and risk with retail bonds in Indonesia. Besides retail bonds are show higher return than retail sukuk because of higher coupon and longest mature date. While, retail sukuk is more stable rather than bonds as it backed up by the real underlying asset. Keywords: Retail Sukuk (SR), Retail Bonds (ORI), Yield to Maturity

This study is based on the Country risk of different stock exchanges of the world. Here Country risk is derived from the Country Beta Approach, as this approach is described by the Erb, Harvey and Viskanta (1996). Specifically, this study is based on the risk comparison of KSE 100 with next eleven countries (South Korea, Iran, Mexico, Philippine, Indonesia, Turkey, Egypt, Nigeria, Pakistan, Vietnam and Bangladesh), which are defined by the Goldman Sachs (2005). For this purpose, the stock exchange's data of these countries is compared with the global index. Actually, the global index is consisted on the 44 countries of the world. Here only one factor is discussed, which is a country risk (country beta). Actually the riskiness is measured in this study on the basis of beta, higher the beta means higher the risk; lower the beta means low the risk. The result shows that the performance of KSE is much better than the next eleven economies but Nigerian stock exchange has less risk than the KSE 100.

This paper uses three models to estimate the financial performance of 33 securities traded on the Athens Stock Exchange (ASE). To estimate the expected returns, this study uses the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), the Market Model, and the Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT). There is significant evidence that the APT performs better than the CAPM and the Market Model, while the differences between the CAPM and the Market Model appear not to be significant. The three models are tested for a five-year period from 2000 to 2005. Total risk is significantly negatively related to returns during down markets, while this relationship is positive but not significant in up markets. There is evidence that, apart from the market risk, other risk factors that influence the stock returns are the inflation rate and the exchange rate.

Eleven laboratories across Canada took part in a comparative study of modified versions of the “FDA” and “USDA” methods for the detection of Listeria monocytogenes in foods and environmental samples. Both were modified by the inclusion of additional plating media and the use of modified Fraser broth in the modified “FDA” method. Approximately 92% of the positive samples were detected after 24 h of enrichment. Testing of routine samples by the participating laboratories showed no significant difference (p<0.05) in ability to isolate L. monocytogenes by either the modified “FDA” or “USDA” methods. However, the modified “FDA” method isolated significantly more positives (16.8%) from the spiked foods/controls than the modified “USDA” method (p<0.05). For all samples tested by both methods in the same laboratory, again the modified “FDA” method significantly out performed the “USDA” version by approximately 6% (p<0.05). However, the spiked foods/controls tested by both methods in the same laboratory showed no difference (p<0.05) in their ability to isolate L. monocytogenes. Overall, the modified “FDA” and “USDA” methods were comparable (within 1.0%) in their ability to isolate this microorganism. The “USDA” preenrichment broth maintained its initial pHbetter. Modified Fraser broth, in principle, proved to be useful as a screening tool but is not very selective. Oxford agar proved to be marginally better than lithium chloride-phenylethanol-moxalactam medium and significantly (p<0.05) better than modified Oxford agar in isolating L. monocytogenes.

The aim of this study is to compare the tissue response between the ridgelap pontic and modified ridgelap pontic. Total patients were 40. The fixed prosthesis were cemented by temporary cementing material. After providing the treatment, instruction on maintenance of prosthesis. Patients were visited and studied after 6 weeks, 12 weeks and 6 months to observe the condition of tissue response beneath pontic. The following necessary data were collected in respect of the condition of tissue beneath the pontic, color of gingiva. The modified ridgelap pontic is better than ridgelap pontic regarding tissue response. The tissue response with the ridgelap surface of the pontic of fixed partial denture in 1st molar missing tooth enhanced the condition of the mucous membrane beneath the tissue surface of the pontic, condition of the abutment tooth, between ridge surface of the pontic and mucosa overlying the edentulous ridge achieved better success regarding fixed partial denture.Update Dent.
