Pertumbuhan sepeda motor di Indonesia mencapai 1 juta unit per tahun, jumlah populasi   kendaraan bermotor akan berbanding lurus. Estimasinya, pertumbuhan terjadi sekitar 10 persen setiap tahunnya. Pertumbuhan sepeda motor di Indonesia akan menyebabkan peningkatan stok cadangan BBM yang   bertambah tiap tahunnya. Oleh karena itu, penulis mengamati pengaruh variasi kecepatan rata-rata terhadap konsumsi bahan bakar pada sepeda motor Yamaha vixion bensin 4 langkah   dengan melalui  serangkaian pengujian dengan beberapa variasi yaitu   pengujian berjalan dengan variasi kecepatan rata-rata 30, 50 dan 70 km/jam, pengujian   dengan variasi posisi transmisi 1-2-3, 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3-4-5 dengan jarak 2 km. Hasil penelitian   menunjukkan bahwa konsumsi bahan bakar paling irit pada pengujian  dengan  jarak tempuh 2 km terjadi pada   kecepatan 50 km/jam   yaitu sebanyak 63 ml disusu  l dengan kecepatan 30 km/jam sebanyak 74 ml. Sedangkan pada jarak 5 km di kecepatan 70 km/jam   yaitu   sebanyak 115 ml dan   disusul dengan   kecepatan 30 km/jam sebanyak 131 ml. Konsumsi rata-rata bahan bakar pada   posisi transmisi 1-2-3, 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3-4-5 yaitu 79 ml, 75 ml, 70 ml.  Dari penelitian yang telah dilakukan dapat dilihat bahwa jarak tempuh dan kecepatan kendaraan mempengaruhi konsumsi bahan bakar. Hal ini disebabkan pembakaran yang tidak selalu stabil di dalam ruang bakar.

Published: February 2023

El rendimiento de las finanzas de una empresa suele evaluarse mediante simples ratios obtenidos a partir de los estados financieros de la propia empresa. Esta investigación se llevó a cabo con el objetivo de analizar el efecto de la rotación del capital circulante, la liquidez y el apalancamiento en la rentabilidad de un taller de fabricación de cuero. El tipo de investigación utilizado fue la investigación asociativa casual. Se utilizaron datos financieros de la empresa en el periodo 2018-2022. El método analítico utilizado para probar tres hipótesis diferentes fue a través del análisis de regresión múltiple. Los resultados del estudio mostraron que la rotación del capital de trabajo, ni la liquidez no tuvieron ningún efecto sobre la rentabilidad, no así para el apalancamiento que tuvo un efecto negativo sobre la rentabilidad de la empresa. Los gestores financieros de las empresas deberían considerar y tener en cuenta el efecto de la liquidez sobre la rentabilidad en las empresas, donde el escaso efectivo que posee la empresa debería ser utilizado suficientemente para los fines de la empresa y la inversión, de manera que los beneficios obtenidos por la empresa aumenten.

RTG (Rubber Tyred Gantry) Crane tends to have harmonic distortions. It is caused by the VSD switching process that converts current from DC to AC, decreasing the power quality and affecting power generation. Disturbance tends to happen on voltage or a current sine wave of the system that contains multiplied frequency from fundamental frequency. It is required to analyze based on the IEEE standard of Std 519-2014 which described that the 20kV bus voltage has a limit value of 3% for VIHD and 5% for VTHD. By using available software, simulation is applied to the RTG Crane electrical system. Harmonic distortion will be discussed by gathering simulation result data in the form of the harmonic spectrum and harmonic wave. harmonic filter to be applied is an Active Filter and Passive Filter that then compared the compatibility to solve the harmonic distortion. The analysis is also applied to Power Factor (PF) value changes before and after filter installation.

Perspective Chapter: Pathophysiology of Spinal Cord Injury and Effect of Neutraceuticals in Providing Potential Health Benefits
Authors: Ara Zeenat , Walliullah Shah , Lafi Al-Otaibi Mohammed , Nath Srivastava Rajeshwar
Published: February 2023

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is extremely debilitating disorder. The increasing incidences and persisting poor prognosis in neurological recovery and QoL (SCIM) have severely exposed the limitations of all known management strategies. Recently simple measures like nutritional supplementation in SCI cases have shown promising results. Efforts in augmenting neurological recovery and QoL (SCIM) following SCI are being studied world over. Unfortunately, little success has been achieved and the most promising ones such as corticosteroids, newer pharmaceutical agents, and cellular therapies have conflicting results. Several studies have found significant improvement in recovery following nutritional intervention in acute trauma and critically ill subjects. These were reported to be cost effective and easy to administer. Since most of these studies were on a specific nutritional supplement, the full potential of a set of nutritional supplementation facilitating neurological recovery needs to be explored. In ASCI, the improvement in neurological status and QOL (SCIM) is unpredictable and remains poor with known therapy. It has been reported that injuries heal better with nutritional supplementation. Taurine, vitamins C and E, omega-3 fatty acid, etc. have specifically found to be effective in facilitating recovery in acute trauma.
Bioaccessibility, Bioavailability, Antioxidant Activities and Health Beneficial Properties of Some Selected Spices
Authors: Nemzer Boris , Kalita Diganta
Published: February 2023

Herbs and spices have been used as therapeutic agents in traditional medicine due to the presence of bioactive compounds including flavonoids, polyphenols, alkaloids, carotenoids, organosulfur compounds, glucosinolates etc. As a result, they are associated with various functional properties such as digestive stimulant, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory anticancer, anti-diabetic, cardioprotective, neuroprotective, and antimicrobial activities. However, the bioefficacy of different spices are affected by the bioavailabilties of their bioactive compounds and depends on various factors such bioaccessibility, molecular structures, composition of food matrices, and metabolizing enzymes. In this chapter we discuss on major phytochemical compounds of some selected spices including turmeric, garlic, ginger, onion, cinnamon, chili pepper, and black pepper including their bio accessibilities, bioavailabilities and their health beneficial effects. The knowledge of bioaccessibility and bioavailability of spices bioactive compounds will give a better understanding towards the development of strategies to optimize the positive health benefits of spices.

Published: February 2023

Background: The microRNA (miRNA) mediated translational repression can cause various diseases in humans. The liver-specific miRNA (microRNA-122 (miR-122)) is primarily involved in tissue tropism during hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection which ultimately leads to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Objectives: This study focuses on evaluating host serum miR-122 as a prognostic marker in HCV-induced hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods: Evaluation of miR-122 expression was carried out by quantitative real time PCR. Results: Positive expression of miR-122 was observed in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) followed by HCC patients compared to healthy controls. A difference in median levels of the miR-122 expression in CHC and HCC patients (P < 0.000) was found in contrast to cirrhosis patients (P = 0.511). The serum miR-122 expression was found threefold higher in liver cirrhosis patients than chronic hepatitis. Further, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) analysis of miR-122 expression profile can efficiently distinguish CHC patients (AUROC = 0.978, P = 0.000, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.958 to 0.998) and HCC from healthy controls (AUROC = 0.971, P = 0.000, 95% CI = 0.944 to 0.997). Moreover, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis significantly distinguished between CHC patients from cirrhosis patients (AUROC = 0.955, P = 0.000, 95% CI = 0.925 to 0.986) but not CHC from HCC patients (AUROC = 0.584, P = 0.104, 95% CI = 0.485 to 0.684). This study revealed a substantial correlation of miR-122 with HCV viral load (r = 0.56, P = 0.000), ALT (r = 0.67, P = 0.000) and AST (r = 0.65, P = 0.000) levels. Conclusions: Serum miR-122 can potentially serve as a promising prognostic tool for HCV induced HCC.
Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion Occurring After Second Dose of Sinopharm COVID-19 Vaccine: A Case Report
Authors: Rezaei Leyla
Published: February 2023

: An old-aged woman was evaluated with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) vision reduction in his left eye three weeks after the Sinopharm coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination. Her best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 1m counting finger in the left eye and 10/10 in the right eye. Initial retinal findings were superior retinal hemorrhage with prominent retinal vein dilation and tortuosity in the left eye. Fluorescein angiography (FA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) confirmed a BRVO diagnosis. Blood reports showed no abnormalities. Antithrombotic treatment of 80 mg/d low-dose entrocoated ASA was administered. In addition, an intravitreal Aflibercept (Eylea) injection, monthly and ongoing, was prescripted, which led to a decrease in macular edema, retinal hemorrhage, and height of serous retinal detachment. Moreover, the BCVA improved to 2/10 after a three-week follow-up.
Obeying Ministers or Laws? A Study of Danish Civil Servants' Responses to Illegal Requests
Authors: Bischoff Carina Saxlund
Published: February 2023

It is part of a civil servants job description to be responsive to its political leadership as well as to uphold legal norms. But what happens when the two types of demands conflict? When legal norms stipulate one thing, but political leaders want another. In modern de- mocracies, observing the rule of law is no less important than holding elections. Respect for legal norms by those who exercise government authority is widely regarded as the cornerstone of democracy and good governance. The question is what role the bureaucra- cy plays when it comes to defending legal norms vis-à-vis its political leaders. This article investigates this question theoretically as well as empirically. First by exploring the nor- mative and positive theoretical issues involved, and secondly by examining the institu- tional context and behavior of the civil service in the Danish state administration. The analysis draws on survey data where civil servants have been asked to respond to fictive scenarios that present a conflict between obedience to the minister and observing the law. A substantial share of the civil servants – up to 1⁄4 - choose to compromise legal obliga- tions to comply with Ministerial requests. The findings suggest that educational back- ground, position in the hierarchy, and work place and function matters. Lawyers, leaders, those who work in departments – as opposed to agencies – are thus less likely to show willingness to compromise their legal obligations than their colleagues are.
Benefit Fraud and Policy Alienation Among Civil Servants
Authors: Søbjerg Lene Mosegaard
Published: February 2023

This article examines how civil servants react to the obligation to report suspicions of benefit fraud among the clients with whom they work. Benefit fraud has gained increas- ing attention in (welfare) states across the world, and reporting suspicions of benefit fraud has become an obligation for many civil servants. This new task contrasts with the tradi- tional role of many civil servants and this study examines how the new task is perceived. The theoretical concept of policy alienation is used to analyse the results of a question- naire sent to civil servants in a Danish municipality. A remarkable outcome of the study is a very high level of non-response. The unwillingness to participate in the study indicates significant policy alienation. The analysis further shows that the policy makes sense to civil servants on a societal level but not on an individual level. This conclusion is sup- ported by the fact that the department in which the civil servants are employed is highly influential in terms of how the civil servants view the task. This implies that the manage- ment and heads of departments can affect the level of policy alienation within their own departments and they consequently have a high impact on how civil servants implement new legislation.
Public or Private – Does It Matter? How School Leaders in Public and Private Schools Perceive Their Roles
Authors: Madestam Jenny , Sundström Göran , Bergström Göran
Published: February 2023

This article takes its stand in an international discussion about how NPM reforms affect public servants’ notions about core public values. More specifically, it analyses how school leaders relate to the values of political control, rule of law, economic efficiency, professionalism and users’ influence. It raises the question whether it matters, in terms of how they embrace these values, their organisation is public or private. 975 school leaders (481 working for public schools and 472 for private schools) have completed a written questionnaire containing 15 postulations linked to the five core values. The study’s main finding is that the differences between the two categories of school leaders are quite small although differences exist. The similarities could reflect a development in recent decades where private schools have undergone politicisation and public schools companyisation. The study indicates that school leaders on both sides try to defend all values simultaneously, in some way. Furthermore, when trying to handle value conflicts they seem to avail themselves of other strategies than those connected to dominating models of rationality, which often conceptualise public actors’ response to value conflicts as a matter of balancing or striking trade-offs.
ANALYTICAL SOLUTIONS FOR TIME-FRACTIONAL CAUCHY REACTION-DIFFUSION EQUATIONS USING ITERATIVE LAPLACE TRANSFORM METHOD
Authors: Bairwa R. K. , Kumar Ajay , Singh Karan
Published: February 2023

In the present work, the iterative Laplace transform method (ILTM) is implemented to derive approximate analytical solutions for the time-fractional Cauchy reaction-diffusion equations (CRDEs) within the Caputo fractional derivative. The proposed technique is an elegant amalgam of the Iterative method and the Laplace transform method. The ILTM produces the solution in a rapid convergent series which may lead to the solution in a closed form. The obtained analytical outcomes with the help of the proposed technique are examined graphically.

El periódico: el libro del pueblo
Authors: Martínez González Alejandro
Published: February 2023

A finales del Siglo XIX y comienzos del xx algunos medios escritos intuyeron su importante potencial socio-pedagógico y consideraron que podrían contribuir sobremanera, con el contenido de sus artículos y su difusión, a la promoción e caz del cambio y el desarrollo social, cada uno desde su particular perspectiva ideológica. La prensa se consideró así, ya entonces, un formidable instrumento para la transmisión de contenidos educativos, lo que llevó a verla como una gran tribuna para la enseñanza y a definirla como «el libro del obrero» (Fuentes y Fernández, 1997:131). En este artículo se da cuenta del carácter de aquellas iniciativas que, en España y fundamentalmente en Madrid, se construyeron entonces con este sentido e/o intencionalidad socioeducativa, entre los que destacaron los medios de carácter eminentemente pedagógico, la prensa obrera socialista, anarquista y de los sindicatos católicos, e iniciativas como la de Ortega y Gasset con la Revista España.
Systemic Design as Born from the Berkeley Bubble Matrix
Authors: Nelson Harold
Published: February 2023

From the early 1960s and continuing into the 1980s, an aggregation of exceptional scholars and professionals formed in the University of California, Berkeley environs, establishing a common bond amongst themselves and with other networks of scholars, students, and professionals globally. They were not in the same disciplines, specializations, or professional fields. They were colleagues sharing a common aspiration. What they shared was a deep interest in, and commitment to, the utility of systems thinking and design action as a means to secure improvements and advancements in the human condition. This common bond resulted in what I have called The Berkeley Bubble—which was internationally influential inside and outside of academia. Unfortunately, the Bubble began dissipating in the closing years of the last century, leaving generative echoes of the ideas incubated and matured in this unique crucible to influence future generations. This essay is a narrative account of the individuals involved—starting with a doctoral committee composed of some of the key people entrained in this bubble—of their influences on one another and on the world of practitioner-scholars worldwide continuing through today.
Running to stand still: Politics and path dependency in South Africa’s municipal electricity sector
Authors:   University of Cape Town, Covary Theo
Published: February 2023

The electricity supply crisis that gripped South Africa in 2007 impacted heavily on economic productivity, political stability, and every citizen. To date, all attempts to understand how the country’s Electricity Supply Industry (ESI) has evolved focus narrowly on Eskom. This approach has become increasingly limited over the last 15 years as the national utility continues to spiral deeper into operational failure. Yet, commentators and analysts have paid little attention to Municipal Electricity Undertakings (MEUs) – the utilities responsible for distributing electricity at municipal level – which started operating two decades before Eskom was formed in 1923. Through a detailed historical account, Running to Stand Still shows how MEUs have contributed to the country’s broader ESI. The book disentangles the complex linkages that have developed between Eskom, MEUs, and the three spheres of government. In doing so, it examines two fundamental but diametrically opposed government objectives. First, the ideal of having financially self-sufficient municipalities that in reality are over-burdened and have to rely heavily on revenue from electricity distribution to cross-subsidise their operations. And second, to have a national utility that generates electricity at the lowest cost to provide the country’s energy-intensive economy with a competitive advantage. These path-dependent practices have endured for more than a century and have cemented institutional lock-in that blocks much-needed sectoral reform. This is aptly demonstrated through the case study of the country’s most powerful financial centre and largest MEU, Johannesburg, which is currently in a state of crisis.
The Patriarchal Subject, Paradigm of Family and Woman Trafficking in China
Authors: Xu Xiangning ,   Caribbean Philosophical Association
Published: February 2023

Instigated by the incident of the chained woman in Feng County, Jiang Su Province, this paper offers a phenomenological argument on the workhorses legitimizing and sustaining women trafficking in China. Specifically, I leverage the Imperial Man and the Paradigm of War by Nelson Maldonado-Torres and construct a pair of paralleled concepts: the Patriarchal Man and the Paradigm of Family. In analyzing the social media coverage of the chained woman and government responses, I argue that the Patriarchal Man and the Paradigm of Family create and perpetuate a common understanding that enables and normalizes women trafficking within a broader circuit. This circuit includes both state actors such as government officials and local actors who are not directly involved in trafficking, in addition to the traffickers, buyers and sellers. To combat women trafficking, we need law reforms as well as a phenomenological reduction of the Patriarchal man. I suggest three potential ways for the phenomenological reduction.

Belajar merupakan hal penting dan tidak dapat dipisahkan dari kehidupan seseorang, karena dalam kegiatan sehari-hari belajar sudah seperti sebuah kesatuan yang terikat dengan setiap orang baik itu sejak berusia dini hingga usia lanjut. Belajar adalah kegiatan positif untuk mengubah atau memperbaiki tingkah laku, sikap hingga kepribadian seseorang, tak jarang pula belajar digunakan sebagai upaya menambah pengetahuan. Belajar dapat dilakukan dimana saja dan oleh siapa saja, belajar tidak hanya diperoleh melalui pendidikan formal. Disisi lain pada kegiatan informal belajar pun dapat dilaksanakan misalnya belajar di rumah. Dewasa ini efektivitas belajar dapat meningkat apabila individu menjalaninya dengan senang. Anak-anak dinilai cepat bosan dengan pembelajaran yang monoton. Untuk mengubah tersebut ada satu cara yang dapat dilakukan yaitu memperkenalkan metode baru dalam belajar. Belajar di teras rumah dengan konsep ramah anak bisa menjadi solusi. Hal serupa dialami oleh sekelompok anak di dusun Ban Rejo, mereka mengalami permasalahan terkait belajar. Mereka menganggap belajar hal yang membosankan. Karena permasalahan diatas pelaksana memberi layanan dengan menggunakan metode intervensi groupwork untuk mengembalikan keberfungsian sosial kelompok tersebut.

In addition to the appearance of a functionally multi-connected model of the object under study, we observe another feature: the SARS-CoV-2 virus penetrates into the cell for a short time, after replication, from the infected cell penetrates into a neighboring cell. And the peculiarity lies in the fact that the replication of the virus penetrates into a neighboring cell along the path of direct contact. Observation and detection of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in various environments and tissues of the body indicates that the virus is able to overcome cellular barriers, as mentioned above, without passing through the receptor channels known to us.

So far, with COVID-19 initiated bythe SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, clinical practice has not introduced a method and appropriate treatment practice, either aimed at the cause of the disease or disorder, or the elimination of the main link in the pathogenesis, which would prove its effectiveness and safety. Clinical studies that are currently being conducted around the world mainly include the use of drugs for diseases in COVID-19.
A Few Words about Pharmacogenetics
Authors: Franjic Sinisa
Published: February 2023

Pharmacogenetics deals with genetically determined variations in response to drugs. Pharmacogenetics studies interindividual differences in DNA sequence that lead to a variable response to drug therapy. The ultimate goal of pharmacogenetics is to establish treatment on the principles of the personalized medicine in which each person, ie patient, is approached as an individual. The way to achieve this is to use molecular diagnostic methods to determine the pharmacogenetic status of the patient and to provide the possibility of adjusting the treatment to his needs.

Preeclampsia Patients in Owerri Metropolis: Studies Of C-Reactive Protein and Uric Acid Status
Authors: Johnkennedy Nnodim
Published: February 2023

The goal of the study was to measure and assess the c-reactive protein and uric acid levels in preeclampsia patients. In the study, serum samples from 30 participants—15 preeclampsia patients and 15 healthy pregnant women—were tested for levels of c-reactive protein and uric acid. The level of c-reactive protein was determined using an enzymatic technique. The findings demonstrated that, at p0.05, the c-reactive protein concentration was substantially higher in preeclampsia patients (4.770.9 mg/dl) than in healthy pregnant women (1.30.39 mg/dl). Additionally, at p 0.05, preeclampsia patients had significantly higher uric acid concentrations (8.973.35 mg/dl) than healthy pregnant women (3.60.5 mg/dl). These results suggest that preeclampsia is associated with elevated levels of c-reactive protein and uric acid. Consequently, it likely act as a biochemical marker for preeclampsia.
Importance of glycosylation for SARS-CoV-2 virus, antibodies and COVID-19
Authors: Tsamaloukas Antonis
Published: February 2023

Summary In addition to the known endemic respiratory viruses, the pandemic SARS-CoV-2 has been added, with terrible effects on the population worldwide. This virus, like many others, has a glycoprotein structure the so-called spike protein, which interacts with the ACE-2 receptor as a cellular entry gate and thus initiates the infection. Just as this glycosylation causes infectiousness, the effect of the protective antibodies is also determined by their degree of glycosylation. In particular, the so-called Fc part of the immunoglobulins plays an important role. The type of bound sugar such as fucose, mannose, sialic acid, etc. determines, among other things, which reactions are triggered by binding to immune cells such as NK cells to their existing Fc receptors. These include antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP), antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), antibody-dependent cellular trogocytosis (ADCT) and antibody-dependent cellular complement deposition (ADCD). In addition to protective phagocytosis, these reactions can trigger the antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) of the infection and also the dreaded cytokine storm in COVID-19 patients. The functional diversification of IgGs by Fc glycosylation can be determined and tracked both after vaccination and during the disease.
