The Association between Corporate Social Responsibility Disclosure and Tax Avoidance: Evidence from Philippine

This study investigates the association between corporate social responsibility disclosure and tax avoidance as allocations of corporate resources to the stakeholders, other than the shareholders. The study aims to examine whether companies that are actively disclosing their social responsibility are also behaving ethically in their financial aspect. Specifically, this study investigates whether companies with good social responsibility will also behave responsibly in their taxation aspect by reducing tax avoidance practices. The study is conducted in a developing country, namely the Philippines, where the sample group is obtained from go-public companies listed on the Philippine stock exchange during the 2014-2019 period that published sustainability reports. The results show there is a negative association between corporate social responsibility disclosure with tax avoidance. This shows that corporate tax practice is part of social responsibility actions.
The Antecedents of the Consumers' Mobile Learning Intention during the Covid-19 Pandemic

Abstract Purpose Covid-19, which affects the whole world, has caused serious changes in many aspects such as lifestyle, habits and purchasing behaviour. New digital consumers and companies that emerged during the epidemic; they realized that mobile devices, especially mobile phones, have become a solution to many real-world problems such as learning and education anytime and anywhere. This study aims to determine the factors affecting the users' mobile learning (m-learning) usage intention during the Covid-19 pandemic process. Design/methodology/approach – This study contributed to the confirmation of the extended TAM model for a mobile device. The sample of the questionnaire is 460 students from different universities in Turkey. These data obtained were analyzed with the Structural Equation Model (SEM) and LISREL program was used for data analysis. Findings – This study proffers a model that the antecedents of the users' mobile learning intention during the Covid-19 pandemic. According to the results of the study, it was concluded that the factor affecting the users' mobile learning (m-learning) intention to use the most is perceived ease of use, the least effective factor is intrinsic leisure motivation, and the future anxiety factor has a meaningless effect. Originality/value – A holistic view of the antecedents of the users' mobile learning intention during the Covid-19 pandemic would be of important use to practitioners and academics alike. This study is different from previous studies; It is thought that it will contribute to the literature by addressing the effects of internal leisure motivation, future anxiety, behavioural spread and system-service quality dimensions on m-learning. For the researchers, this study took an important step towards explaining the m-learning relationship with students' intrinsic leisure motivation, future anxiety, behavioural spread, and system-service quality learning perspectives.

Impact of Online Consumer Reviews on Amazon Books Sales: Empirical Evidence from India

This study aims to assess the effect of online reviews on online book sales performance in the Indian context. A sales rank was used as a proxy measure for sales. The total sample size was 2028 books from the ‘bestseller’ and ‘recent’ book categories on Amazon.in. Cross-sectional analysis and difference-in-difference analysis approaches were adopted for data analysis. The results revealed that online reviews shared by the Indian consumers impact books sales, as the consumers prefer to analyze the books on the basis of available online reviews before making their purchase decision. Overall, the results indicated that reviews had a positive impact on the sales in both book categories.
THE EFFECT OF CHRONIC VIRAL HEPATITIS B AND C ON BONE MINERAL DENSITY

Objectives. Chronic viral hepatitis B and C represent an important health burden all over the world. Reduced bone mineral density is an extrahepatic complication which has been found in patients with chronic liver disease. The aim of our study was to identify bone mineral impairment (osteopenia/osteoporosis) and the risk factors that are correlated with its severity, in patients with chronic viral hepatitis B (CHB) and C (CHC). Material and methods. Anthropometric, biological parameters and bone mineral density (BMD) were measured in 60 patients with CHB (n = 30) and CHC (n = 30). BMD was assessed using Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) in the hip and lumbar spine regions, inclusively a whole scan (total body). Results. Sixty patients (mean age 44.93 years, range: 20-70) were enrolled, including 30 CHB patients (mean age 46.43 years, range: 20-70) and 30 CHC patients (mean age 43.43 years, range: 28-64). Forty of patients were men (66.66 %). Active smokers were 16 patients (26.66 %). Meanbody mass index (BMI) was 25.38 kg/m2 (range: 16.70-38.40). At baseline, 21 of 60 (35%) of the patients had evidence of osteopenia and 4 of 60 (6.66%) of patients, respectively presented osteoporosis at LS. At total hip, 22 of 60 of the patients (36.66%) recorded osteopenia; osteoporosis was found at 7 patients (11.66%) at total hip assessment. Low BMD values at different regions correlated significantly with low BMI, smoking and liver fibrosis grade. Conclusions. Our results suggest that bone mineral metabolism disorders exist in patients with chronic viral hepatitis B and C who are active smokers, presenting low BMI and advanced liver fibrosis, even without liver cirrhosis.
Automatic dependent bug reports assembly for bug tracking systems by threshold-based similarity

Bug reports contain essential information for fixing problems that occur in software. Many studies have proposed methods for automatic analysis of bug reports. One such task could affect the completion of software bug fixing, known as “bug dependency”. Although this problem was mentioned by many researches, most of them discussed about the related bugs but not really dealt with dependency issue in bug reports. One possible solution used for addressing this issue is to assemble all relevant/dependent bug reports together before analysis of the next processing stages. This study presents a method of assembling dependent bug reports. The main mechanism is called “threshold-based similarity analysis”, and the three similarity techniques of cosine similarity (CS) multi aspect TF (MATF), and BM25 are compared with feedback, precision and likelihood value. As the BM25 with the threshold as 0.5 gives the best results, it was used to compare with the state of the art method. The results show that our method increases precision and likelihood values by 12% and 12.4% respectively. Therefore, our results can be used to encourage developers to recognize all dependent bugs in the same problem domain.
Bottom-up populism: How relative deprivation and populist attitudes mobilize leaderless anti-government protest

The present research focuses on populism as a bottom-up phenomenon that emerges from shared perceptions of relative deprivation. We predict that by serving as a shared ideological basis, populist attitudes can mobilize leaderless anti-government protest across ideological boundaries. We test this prediction in the context of the French Yellow Vests movement. Using a sample of French citizens (N = 562), we compare the effects of different indicators of relative deprivation on Yellow Vest protest participation and the extent to which populist attitudes account for these relationships. Results indicate that protests were fuelled by indicators of relative deprivation at the individual and group levels. Populist attitudes were best predicted by vertical comparisons between “the people” and “the elite” and fully accounted for the relationship between this type of group relative deprivation and protesting. Conversely, populist attitudes only partially accounted for the relationships between protesting and traditional measures of relative deprivation that either contrast natives with immigrants or individuals with fellow citizens. The findings strengthen the understanding of populism as a “thin centred” belief set that can unite and mobilize those who feel unfairly disadvantaged compared to a socio-political elite.

In the present study, we describe a case of treatment-naïve stage IIIB SqCLC that harbored a rare epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) p. E746_S752delinsV mutation with clinical complete response to neoadjuvant gefitinib. Pathological complete response was confirmed after surgical resection. No disease recurrence was documented after 20-month follow-up. This report suggested that firstgeneration EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) could be an option in neoadjuvant context for advanced SqCLC patients harboring EGFR p.E746_S752delinsV mutation and highlighted the clinical benefits of EGFR testing in SqCLC patients who are females and never/former light smokers.
Agarwood Branch Ethanolic Extract Affects Expression of Apoptotic Genes in MCF-7 Breast Cancer Cells

Breast cancer is one of the most common death causes among women worldwide. Treatment is usually associated with chemically synthesized drugs with serious side effects which shifted the attention of cancer researchers towards development of natural product alternatives. Ethnopharmaceutical evidence showed that Aquilaria spp. have been used to treat a wide range of disorders. However, scientific evidence is still lacking to support and extend the traditional applications to cancer. This study aims to investigate differential gene expression (DEG) of MCF-7 cells treated with agarwood branch ethanolic extract (ABEE) to provide insights into its cell growth-inhibiting effects. Methods: cDNA synthesis from RNA of MCF-7 cells treated with the 8 µg/ml ABEE and DMSO-treated cells (control), respectively, were subjected to RT2 Profiler Array Human Cell Death Finder™ containing 84 genes related to cell death mechanism. Pathway analysis was carried out using the online KEGG Pathway tool. Results: 48 genes that met the threshold fold regulation cut-off of 2 and p < 0.05; 41 DEGs from the list were down-regulated, and 7 were up-regulated. Pathway analysis suggested ABEE may have caused apoptosis of MCF-7 cells through extrinsic and/or intrinsic apoptotic pathways, including activation of p53 that could be the first step towards apoptotic elimination of the cancer cells upon treatment of ABEE. Conclusion: Results obtained supported the growth inhibition effects of ABEE against MCF-7 cells that can serve as the basis for further work towards extending the use of agarwood as cancer therapeutics.
Stress analysis of a single prosthesis on a poorly positioned implant

The mechanical positioning behavior of a mal-positioned implant was evaluated in the finite element method. Models were created in SolidWorks Professional 2013® software with a single implant rehabilitation. The following were analyzed: Control Group, crown aligned to the implant long axis; Experimental Group, crown shifted 3 mm mesial proximally to the implant axis. Compressive stresses in cortical and medullary bone, and Von Mises stresses in implants and components were evaluated. With 100 N occlusal loading at 5 points. The peak von Mises stresses in the prosthetic screw of the experimental group (138.45 MPa) were 43.60% higher compared to the control group (96.41 MPa). The stresses in the prosthetic pillar were localized in the abutment region and the experimental group showed (875.63 MPa), 28% higher than the control group (683.88 MPa). Regarding the implant, the maximum stress peaks were located in the implant platform and the experimental group showed stress values of (1081.4) MPa and was 26.42% higher than the control 855.39 MPa. The cortical bone tissue of the experimental group showed shear stress values 10.81% higher than the control. The stress values were 151.36 MPa for the experimental group and (136.59 Mpa) for the control. The medullary bone showed shear stress (8.31 MPa) and was 12.29% higher than the control (7.40 MPa). A maximum peak was obtained in the cervical region of the medullary bone, adjacent to the cortical bone. The experimental group with a mal-positioned implant showed the highest maximum stresses for all simulated prosthetic components.
Community Awareness of Health Problems Associated with Gas Flaring and Programme to Mitigate

Background: Gas flaring, which occurs as part oil and gas operations results in release of gaseous toxins into the environment thus has a negative impact on the host communities including fauna, flora and humans. Previous studies focused mainly on the contribution of gas flaring to environmental pollution but not on human health. This article assesses disease prevention and treatment programs for ill-health associated with gas flaring. Methodology: This research followed a mixed method approach of quantitative and qualitative analysis. Qualitative data comprised open-ended questions that sought the thematic views of community on how the companies liaise with either community and/or government, and what they would want the companies to provide to alleviate the health effects of gas flaring. Chi square and correlations were used on quantitative data to determine agreements and statistically significant differences of responses by participants from the questions that were set on Likert scales. Outcome: Chi-square showed statistically significant difference (X2 = z76, p < 0.017), when distribution of responses to Question-1 (Benefit of oil company to the community) and Question-4 (Oil companies awareness of potential health problems in the community) were compared. Therefore, the null hypothesis is rejected i.e. there is association between variables and awareness of prevalent ill-health due to gas flaring are responded to with preventive and treatment programs. Conclusion: This notes that there is a relationship between awareness of health problems and intervention and also a lack of capacity among the communities’ low-mid social class to appropriately dialogue with the government for change.

Contact Toxicity Effects of Selected Organic Leaf Extracts of Tithonia diversifolia (Hemsl.) A. Gray and Vernonia lasiopus (O. Hoffman) against Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

Maize weevil (Sitophilus zeamais) infestation results in a substantial reduction in the quantity and deterioration of the quality of stored maize. Most farmers control weevils using conventional pesticides which are usually associated with several human health risks as well as intoxication of the fauna and flora. However, bioinsecticides form an alternative intervention since they possess fewer side effects on human health, are ecofriendly, and are readily available. This study sought to validate and document, in a systematic way, the pesticidal properties of the species Tithonia diversifolia and Vernonia lasiopus used for many years by many people of the world on S. zeamais. The plant leaf samples were obtained from Embu County, Kenya. Dichloromethane and ethyl acetate solvents were used to extract active phytochemicals from the dried plant sample powder. The GC-MS analysis of the obtained extracts was performed at ICIPE laboratories to identify their phytochemical compositions. Twenty grams of maize grains were put in 50 ml plastic vials and admixed with different treatments. The positive control group was treated with Actellic Super™, while the negative control was treated with the respective extracting solvent only. The experimental groups were separately treated with the plant leaf extracts at doses of 25, 50, 75, and 100%. After treatment, each of the six groups was infested with 10 male S. zeamais and weevil mortality as a result of contact toxicity of the treatments was assessed at 6, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours after the insects were exposed to the extracts. Results of the study indicate that the selected organic leaf extracts of T. diversifolia and V. lasiopus possessed significant contact insecticidal effects that ranged between 1.67 to 99.98%. Furthermore, the GC-MS analysis revealed several active biocompounds in T. diversifolia and V. lasiopus extracts, which are known for their considerable insecticidal effects. Our data suggest that the organic leaf extracts of T. diversifolia and V. lasiopus have considerable insecticidal properties and would, therefore, be a valuable bioprotective agent for stored maize grains against S. zeamais.

Determinants of Coronary Heart Disease Incidence among Indonesian Hajj Pilgrims Hospitalized in Saudi Arabia in 2019

BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the main causes of death worldwide, including in the hajj pilgrims. Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the most common CVDs in Indonesian hajj pilgrims hospitalized in Saudi Arabia. AIM: This study aimed to determine the determinants of the CHD incidence among Indonesian hajj pilgrims hospitalized in Saudi Arabia in 2019. METHODS: This study was an observational analytic study with a case–control design. The study was conducted in Makassar using data from the integrated Hajj computerized system in the health sector (siskohatkes) Hajj Health Center (Puskeshaji) in January–June 2021. Cases were pilgrims hospitalized in Saudi Arabia with a diagnosis of CHD, about 186 people, and controls were pilgrims hospitalized with diagnoses other than CVDs. Selection of controls by matching age and sex with a ratio of 1:1. The determinants analyzed included education, high blood pressure, high blood sugar levels, high low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels, excess body mass index (BMI), and smoking. Data analysis was using the STATA program with an odds ratio (OR) test and multiple logistic regression. RESULTS: The most respondents were 65 years (48.39%), female respondents, about 61.83%. Most respondents’ education was in elementary school, about 31.99%. Multivariate analysis showed that high blood pressure (OR = 2.32, 95% confidence index [CI] = 1.50–3.57), high blood sugar levels (RO = 1.90, 95% CI = 1.06–3.40), high LDL cholesterol levels (RO = 1.82, 95% CI = 1.15–2.88), and excess BMI (RO = 1.73, 95% CI = 1.07–2.68) were risk factors for the CHD incidence. However, education and smoking were not risk factors for CHD. CONCLUSION: By multiple logistic regression analyzes, the study revealed that the probability of CHD when having those four risk factors was 85.69%.
