Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pandemi Covid-19 yang diukur berdasarkan kasus baru (new cases) dan kasus kematian (new deaths) hanya berpengaruh terhadap total asset turnover sementara yang lainnya tidak berpengaruh. Hal ini menunjukan bahwa semakin meningkatnya kasus baru dan kasus kematian pandemi Covid-19 menyebabkan turunnya nilai total asset turnover, dimana perputaran asset untuk menghasilkan pendapatan semakin menurun. Seperti yang diketahui bahwa pada masa pandemi diberlakukan beberapa kebijakan pemerintah sehingga dari sisi pengguna jasa transportasi menurun. Meskipun demikian untuk jasa logistik dan pengiriman barang justru mengalami peningkatan. Sehingga hal ini tidak mempengaruhi kondisi likuiditas, solvabilitas, profitabilitas perusahaan sektor transportasi dan logistik.

Authors: Chiphiko Batamu Anderson , Kim Hyunsung , Ali Patrick , Eneya Levis
Published: December 2023

Internet of Things (IoT) is to connect billions of devices and machines via Internet and to have a smart system. Sensors and devices in IoT environment are connected and communicated together. Connecting such a huge number of devices requires high level of security and privacy. A crucial characteristic of ubiquitous IoT devices is their limited resources. In recent times, a scheme for privacy-preserving machine authenticated key agreement scheme (PPMAKA) has been introduced for the IoT environment. It was argued that PPMAKA provides security and privacy at the same time including forward secrecy. Nevertheless, this paper will demonstrate that PPMAKA lacks forward secrecy, a crucial security, and privacy feature in the IoT environment. We use Cannetti and Krawzyck threat model for the detailed analysis of PPMAKA. Furthermore, we provide remarks for the future research as it is recommendable to design any security and privacy schemes over IoT environments with lightweight operation and communication property, authenticated key agreement with forward secrecy, anonymity, and unlinkability.

Role of Demographic Factors in Shaping Sustainable Lifestyles: An Empirical Study in Vietnam
Authors: Nguyen Phuong Mai , Chu Minh Thanh , Nguyen Minh Duong
Published: December 2023

In recent years, sustainable lifestyles (SLS) has emerged as a topic that addresses the trend of sustainable development globally. However, most developing and emerging economies have not put adequate effort to promote SLS. Vietnam is not an exception. There is not much evidence of how Vietnamese people are responding to the urgent call of actions towards sustainable development. In such a context, this paper explores how demographic factors shape the SLS in Vietnam. An online survey was implemented to gather primary data from Vietnamese people in four months. Finally, we received 385 valid responses. ANOVA tests were employed to check the proposed hypotheses about the differences in SLS regarding age, gender, and income. Research results revealed that age, gender and income are not associated with the SLS of Vietnamese people. Our findings imply that the Vietnamese government should play a proactive role in promoting SLS. Some recommendations were proposed, including investment in public transportation, sustainable product design, zero-waste policies, and the like.

Authors: Lima Ana Claudia , Carmo Carlos Henrique Silva do
Published: December 2023

O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar a influência das transações com partes relacionadas (TPRs) na comparabilidade das demonstrações financeiras de empresas abertas do mercado brasileiro. Para mensuração da comparabilidade, utilizou-se o modelo de similaridade da função contábil de DeFranco et al. (2011). As TPRs foram coletadas nas notas explicativas das demonstrações financeiras e mensuradas conforme os estudos de Hendratama e Barokah (2020) e Khuong et al. (2023). A análise de dados deu-se por meio de regressões quantílicas nos quantis 0.25, 0.50 e 0.75. Os resultados obtidos sugerem que as TPRs de venda e totais impactam negativamente a qualidade das informações contábeis, reduzindo a comparabilidade. Esta pesquisa contribui com a literatura ao acrescentar evidências da relação de TPRs e qualidade da informação contábil no contexto brasileiro, além disso, traz implicações para investidores e normatizadores, visto que as transações relacionadas podem ser usadas para obscurecer as informações contábeis.

In Brazil, oral cancer constitutes a significant public health challenge. According to the National Cancer Institute (INCA), over 11,000 new cases of oral cancer were reported in 2022. This particular type of cancer can be identified as either squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), or epidermoid carcinoma. Within this context, the primary objective of this study is to conduct a comprehensive literature review focusing on the differential diagnoses of SCC and its distinctive characteristics. To achieve this, we conducted searches in the Scientific Electronic Library Online (Scielo), PubMed, and LILACS databases using the following terms: "oral cancer," "differential diagnosis and squamous cell carcinoma," "head and neck squamous cell carcinoma," and "head and neck squamous cell carcinoma," encompassing the period between 2004 and 2023. Among the contributing risk factors are tobacco consumption, excessive alcohol intake, human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, and prolonged sun exposure. Notably, smoking emerges as one of the principal risk factors, elevating the risk of SCC development up to threefold for smokers. In conclusion, the management of oral cancer necessitates a comprehensive approach encompassing preventive measures, accurate diagnosis, and appropriate treatment. Moreover, distinguishing oral cancer from other conditions that might manifest similar symptoms remains a critical aspect of effective management

This systematic review explored the various literature on performance appraisal of teachers through the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) framework. This study used research from Google Scholar that was conducted between 2018 and 2022 and was written in English. This study specifically described the demographic data in the existing literature on performance appraisal of teachers in terms of country, research design, and the number of participants; the impacts and insights on teachers’ performance appraisal in public secondary schools that includes performance appraisal and teachers’ job productivity, perceived influence or impact of PA on teachers’ performance, performance practices and teachers’ perspectives, performance appraisal and teachers’ training, and performance appraisal and learners’ academic performance and recommendations for further research that can be identified by exploring the current literature. The database identified 98 pieces of literature. However, the number was narrowed down to twelve (12) after screening and determining eligibility using the inclusion-exclusion criteria, which most of the study being carried out in Africa and Asia. Furthermore, recommendations from different research studies revolve around the relationship between teachers’ performance appraisal strategies and job productivity and reward practices, the perceived influence or impact of performance appraisal on teachers’ and learners’ academic performance, teachers’ perspectives on performance appraisal, and teachers’ training needs. Finally, we hope that this study could assist both educational leaders and policymakers in formulating educational strategies concerning the evaluation of teachers’ performance. These strategies could potentially support teachers in enhancing their skills and knowledge in delivering instruction, ultimately leading to the improvement of students’ academic performance.

A Review of the Impact of Bush Burning on the Environment: Potential Effects on Soil Chemical Attributes
Authors: Maigana Chiroma Alhaji , Bala Alhassan Abdullahi
Published: December 2023

Bush burning, whether the result of a wildfire or a controlled burn, has been shown to affect not only the appearance of the landscape, but the quality of the soil as well. Uncontrolled bush fires impact the soil in a variety of ways with the magnitude of the disturbance largely dependent upon the fire intensity, duration and recurrence, fuel load, and soil characteristics. The impact on soil properties is intricate, yielding different results based on these factors. Whereas burning off the vegetation during land clearing for cultivation is a common farming practice among farmers in many parts of the tropics, yet little is known by perpetrators of this practice about its impacts on the soil and its dwellers. This paper reviews research findings from a number of works conducted across the globe with the aim of gaining an insight the effects of wildfire and prescribed fire on the soil chemical and biological attributes. The knowledge of soils response in terms of these two properties to fire events can help in proper implementation of rehabilitation and restoration strategies at the short term, medium term, and long term.

A microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) process for polyphenols from Allium rumelicum Kocyigit & Ozhatay, Jurinea kilaea Azn. and Peucedanum obtusifolium Sibth. & Sm. was used. This research examined the methanolic extracts made from these three species’ antioxidant, antimicrobial, total phenolic, and flavonoid contents. By using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate free radical method (DPPH), ABTS/Persulfate, and Cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) methods, the total antioxidant activities and capacities were examined. Additionally, the Folin-Ciocalteu and AlCl3/KAc techniques were used to calculate the total phenolic and flavonoid contents. To ascertain the antibacterial capabilities of plants, the disc diffusion method was applied. The J. kilaea showed the greatest total antioxidant capacity/activity levels when measured using the CUPRAC and ABTS/Persulfate techniques. A. rumelicum was found to have the highest quercetin concentration, while P. obtusifolium had the lowest. In J. kilaea, the gallic acid concentration was highest. The highest antimicrobial activity values were obtained in P. obtusifolium.
