“…erefore, it is necessary to find a drug that is safe and effective and can reveal its mechanism of action on CG. As crystallization of the wisdom of the Chinese Nation, Chinese Traditional Medicine Compound has an advantage in the treatment of disease [31]. LPD, as a classic prescription for the treatment of CG, consists of seven herb medicine, namely CR, MOR, CJ, PT, AT, FSB, and RR.…”

Lianpu drink (LPD) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formula for the treatment of chronic gastritis (CG), and its clinical effects have been effectively verified. However, due to the complexity of the chemical composition of TCM formulas, its mechanism of action has not yet been clearly explained. Many studies have shown that the principal drugs in the TCM formula play a major therapeutic role. Therefore, in this study, the principal drugs Coptidis Rhizoma (CR) and Magnolia officinalis Rehd. et Wils. (MOR) in LPD were used as the main research objects to predict the mechanism of LPD on CG. We contrasted a “compounds-targets-diseases” network and screened the putative targets of CR and MOR in LPD related to CG, respectively. Furthermore, common targets of CR and MOR related to CG were selected as candidate targets. In this study, the specific target proteins of CR, MOR, and CG were combined by protein-protein interaction (PPI) to construct a pharmacological network of “components-targets-diseases.” In addition, we investigated the effects of CR and MOR on the TNF signaling pathway, which mediated the remission of CG. This study preliminarily revealed that CR and MOR play a key role in the treatment of CG. Animal experiments also showed that CR and MOR could significantly improve CG by inhibiting MKK6/p38 and RIP/p38 pathway.

“…LPD, as a classic prescription for the treatment of CG, consists of seven herb medicine, namely CR, MOR, CJ, PT, AT, FSB, and RR. In the TCM compound, the sovereign drug plays a major role in the treatment of the main disease [31]. So, in our study, "CR" and "MOR" as sovereign drugs of LPD had been taken for research.…”

“…SWOT analysis focuses on the analysis of the internal micro environment, while PEST analysis focuses on the external macro environment. From a comprehensive perspective, the SWOT-PEST model systematically analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of an organization in politics, economy, society and technology, as well as the opportunities and threats it faces, so as to form the SWOT-PEST analysis matrix (see Table 1) and find out the key influencing factors so as to obtain the decision scheme (Liu & Xiao, 2011). In addition, the Guangdong provincial government continues to implement the "post refund policy" for undergraduate graduates to teach in rural schools.…”

Under the background of rural revitalization strategy, the key of rural education revitalization lies in the construction of rural teachers, and the key of rural teacher team construction lies in the professional development of teachers. Based on the SWOT-PEST model, from the micro and macro perspective, combined with the current politics, economy, society, technology analyzes the internal advantages and disadvantages, and external opportunities and threats, which adheres to the principle of "play advantages, overcome disadvantages", from strengthening school-based research, relying education informatization, building teacher education community, choosing the best and matching the school administrators putting forward the corresponding SO strategy, ST strategy, WO strategy and WT strategy.

“…Harrison and Huntington (2000) contend that cultural factors promote growth and competitiveness of East Asian economies. Prior studies examine the competitiveness of China at the macro level (Adams, Gangnes, & Shachmurove, 2006;El-Namaki, 2002;Zhao & Zhang, 2007), and the competitiveness at industry level (Liu, Xu, & Zhang, 2010;Yang, Ji, Nie, & Yinxing, 2013). The overall competitive landscape of most OBOR countries shows a positive picture, while others show a very terrible picture.…”

This paper investigates the effect of worldwide governance indicators and global competitiveness on the level of accounting fraud in One Belt One Road (OBOR) countries. We use publicly available data from various sources. We perform principal components analysis to reduce the six governance indicators to three governance indexes. Governance indicators have significant impact on fraud and the effect could be positive or negative depending on the dimensions involved. Voice and accountability and political stability show significant negative impact on the number of fraud cases. Competitiveness shows a positive but insignificant effect on the level of fraud cases. Democratic countries report lesser number of fraud cases. The findings should be read with caution because of the diversity in the countries in the sample. OBOR countries exhibit different governance models, which may affect their indicators and as a result, the extent of fraud cases reported may be influenced by the regime practiced by a country. The study considers the relevance of governance indicators to policymakers in dealing with rising level of fraud since fraudulent activities affect productivity. Fraud analysis should be embedded in the governance architecture of countries to stimulate development and mitigate the risks of bankruptcies, business failures and loss of investments. Contribution/Originality:The paper contributes to literature on fraud and forensic accounting theories by employing the institutional framework to highlight the occurrence of fraud in different settings. INTRODUCTIONIn recent times, forensic accounting, which focuses on fraud examination, investigation of bribery and corruption, business valuation, expert witness, cybercrime management/cyber security and litigation support (Crumbley, Heitger, & Smith, 2015) has emerged as a multi-faceted area. Concerns about the increasing rate of frauds the world over has led to a rise in the demand for forensic accounting (Rezaee & Wang, 2018). According to the 2018 Global Survey on occupational fraud and abuse, Report to the Nations issued by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE), organizations lose around 5 percent of their total revenues to fraud each year.Applied to the 2017 estimated Gross World Product of USD 79.6 trillion, organizations suffer global fraud loss close to the tune of USD4 trillion (ACFE, 2018). "Fraud is a human endeavor, involving deception, purposeful intent, intensity of desire, risk of apprehension, violation of trust, rationalization" (Ramamoorti & Olson, 2007).This study examines the influence of governance infrastructure and global competitiveness on accounting fraud.
