An analysis of the SPDR SSGA Gender Diversity Index ETF using fractional integration or I(d) techniques and daily data from 8 March 2016 to 8 January 2021, reveals that the series is highly persistent with an order of integration smaller than, though very close to 1. However, when estimating d recursively across subsamples, two peaks can be observed. The first peak appears in the sample with 679 observations (ending at 26 December 2018) and the second one occurs in the sample with 974 observations and ending at 28 February 2020, which shows the most significant change in d, moving from values within the I(1) interval to values significantly above 1. The findings indicate that the Covid-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the persistence of the SPDR SSGA Gender Diversity Index ETF, increasing its magnitude and thus the level of persistence.

The approved intravenous adeno-associated virus (AAV) therapies are limited by the widespread prevalence of pre-existing anti-AAV antibodies in the general population, which are known to restrict patients' ability to receive gene therapy and limit transfection efficacy in vivo. To address this challenge, we have developed a novel recombinant human immunoglobulin G degrading enzyme KJ103, characterized by low immunogenicity and clinical value for the elimination of anti-AAV antibodies in gene transfer. Herein, we conducted two randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose Phase I studies in China and New Zealand, to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety and immunogenicity of KJ103 in healthy volunteers.
