Abstract: Recently, nanomedicines have been advanced and turned into an innovative approach for the diagnosis and treatment of several diseases. In particular, the medication is being delivered to the site of action through nanoparticles wherein these transporters are significant for effective treatment or management of diseases. The diversified nanocarriers support the targeted biomolecular interaction of drugs and can reduce various side effects thereby enabling the treatment more effectively. In this chapter, we depict the utilization of efficient nano-sized carriers in nanomedicine and nanotechnology in the treatment and diagnosis, respectively. Additionally, we discuss the targeted delivery of nanodrugs in a broader context through the availability of different nanocarriers. We also give a brief outlook on various nanomedicines developed utilizing distinctive and novel nanocarriers.

Abstract: This study aims at verifying the impact of the capital structure on the profitability in Jordanian industrial joint-stock firms, and how these companies managed their capitals through the period from 2006 to 2015. The methodology of this study relied on the descriptive approach to analyze and classify the available data using the multi regression analysis. The sample of the study included the Dar Al Dawa Development and Investment Company, and the Hayat Pharmaceutical Industries Company. The results of this study show that there are statistically significant effects at the significance level ( 0.05. = α ≤ 0.0 ) of the capital structure (debt) on the return on equity (ROE) in the Jordanian industrial shareholding companies. Descriptive statistics indicate that the financial leverage (FL) constitutes about 51% of the capital structure in the aforementioned companies, with the short-term financial leverage being the largest component of the financial leverage (FL). It is worth noting that the leverage ratio was almost constant during the study period (the standard deviation ratio was 0,113). As shown by the study results, the rate of interpretation of the independent variables on the dependent variable was 85% (Adjusted R2). It has been also noticed that the relationship between the capital structure ) indebtedness ( and the profitability (ROE) is positive, i.e. there is a statistical significance of financial leverage (FL) on the profitability index in the studied companies. Likewise, there is a statistically significant effect of other independent variables (except for the asset turnover ratio) on the profitability index.

The research sample includes 325 financial reports from manufacturing firms listed in Amman Stock exchange over the 2014-2018 period. The study relationships are tested by using logistic regression. The results revealed a negative relationship, but not significant between CEO tenure and independent directors with audit quality. In addition, the results showed there is a negative effect of CEO duality on audit quality; also the results revealed that there is a statistically significant effect on the board of directors (board size) on the AQ. In general, the coefficient estimates of controlling variables show that client size and leverage debt positively affect audit quality, and on the contrary, business complexity has an insignificant positive relationship with audit quality. The summary of the study findings play an active role to external auditor opinion on business practice in towered the corporate governance system.
