Exploring tourist perceptions of Kerala's destination marketing
Authors: Sanoj K.T. , Ayoob C.P. , Albin Tom
Published: February 2024

Kerala has been recognised as one of the top ten paradises in the world. Kerala offers a wide range of tourism items that meet the requirements and expectations of practically every type of traveller, and it stands out for offering a full travel experience. The state of Kerala offers tremendous potential for tourism expansion thanks to its ideal temperature, lush vegetation, natural tourist attractions, vibrant festivals, martial arts, wildlife sanctuaries, and ancient Ayurveda legacy. But Kerala has not been able to fully realise its potential, despite having a variety of resources and opportunities. Kerala's tourism industry has a lot of untapped potential as less than five percent of visitors to India come to the State. Kerala is ranked eighth in terms of foreign visitor arrivals and fifteenth in terms of domestic visitor arrivals. Kerala travel marketing tactics must be updated over time to reflect changes in customers' requirements and tastes if the state is to realise its full potential and pull in an increasing number of tourists, especially from abroad. To assure service quality, it is crucial to understand exactly what the client expects, and marketing research on consumer preferences is required to examine how the customer's needs are evolving. This study aims to comprehend how tourists see the advertising tactics used by the public and commercial sectors at different Kerala tourist attractions. The study also seeks to gauge travellers' expectations and satisfaction levels in regard to Kerala as a tourist destination because the success of marketing depends on consumer happiness.

Condições ambientais adversas, como o aumento da temperatura do ar, tem impacto sobre o crescimento inicial das plantas, interferindo no potencial de rendimento dos cultivos. Assim, objetivou-se avaliar o efeito do aumento da temperatura no estabelecimento inicial de plantas de mandioca. O experimento foi realizado em câmaras de crescimento, com delineamento inteiramente casualizado em esquema fatorial 3x2 (cultivares x regimes de temperatura), com cinco repetições, durante 165 dias. Foram utilizadas mudas de mandioca das cultivares BRS 417, BRS 420 e BRS CS01 e os regimes de temperatura: T1 (20-26-33 °C) e T2 (24.8-30.8-37.8 °C). Os parâmetros fisiológicos foram afetados negativamente pelo aumento da temperatura. Essas alterações fisiológicas resultaram no aumento da temperatura foliar. A cultivar BRS 420 apresentou maior diâmetro do caule, quando comparada às demais, com uma média de 4,63 mm. O regime de temperatura de 24.8-30.8-37.8 °C contribuiu para maior altura das plantas das cultivares BRS 420 e BRS CS01, com média de 104.28 e 89.54 cm respectivamente. O aumento da temperatura também contribuiu para maior produção de biomassa da parte aérea, com um aumento de massa fresca de 41% e 52% e massa seca de 20% e 37% para BRS 420 e BRS CS01, respectivamente. A massa fresca do sistema radicular foi maior com o aumento da temperatura para as três cultivares analisadas, com destaque para BRS 420, que também apresentou maior produção de massa seca das raízes, independentemente do regime de temperatura. O aumento da temperatura do ar, com regime diário de 24.8-30.8-37.8 °C favoreceu o crescimento e desenvolvimento das plantas jovens de mandioca, contribuindo para o seu estabelecimento, mesmo com alterações nas respostas fisiológicas.

The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of different cutting lengths, the use of biostimulants and diameter of cuttings on hops vegetative propagation. The work was conducted in a greenhouse at the Center for Agricultural Sciences (CCA) at the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC), in Florianópolis/SC, Brazil, between October 2019 and January 2021. In experiment 1, cuttings with one, two and three buds were tested, with and without application of biostimulant SprintAlga TS® (Biolchim) in Brewer's Gold and Cascade cultivars. In experiment 2, cuttings with diameter of 1.5 cm, 2.5 cm and 3.5 cm were tested for Northern Brewer cultivar. In both experiments, survival, rooting, root length, root quality, number of shoots and shoot length were evaluated. In experiment 1, Cascade had lower survival, rooting and development compared to Brewer's Gold. The use of biostimulant increased survival and rooting rates of both cultivars. For Brewer's Gold the use of biostimulant improved root quality and increased shoot number, root and shoot length. For Brewer's Gold, 3-bud cuttings improved root quality and increased number of shoots. For Cascade, 1-bud cuttings showed the highest survival, rooting and development rates. In experiment 2, the highest rates of survival, rooting and the longest root length were obtained with 1.5 cm diameter cuttings. Larger diameter cuttings (2.5 and 3.5 cm) produced fewer shoots, but longer shoots.

Published: February 2024

In a no-tillage system, the absence of soil disturbance combined with increased machine traffic has led to soil compaction in the top layer, negatively affecting its physical quality and hampering crop growth and production. This experiment aimed to assess the impact of tractor traffic, occurring under a no-tillage system, on soil physical properties and their relationship with the growth and yield of white oat crops. The research was conducted in an Oxisol, utilizing a randomized block design with five replications. The treatments consisted of ten consecutive years of no-tillage and additional traffic by 2, 4, 6, and 8 passes of a tractor wheel across the entire plot area. Various soil parameters were evaluated in two soil layers, including soil bulk density, total porosity, macroporosity, and soil resistance to penetration. Additionally, plant height, stem diameter, dry plant mass, mass of one thousand grains, and grain yield were determined. The collected data were analyzed using analysis of variance and linear regression. The results indicated that higher tractor traffic intensity led to increased soil bulk density and reduced macroporosity and soil resistance to penetration in the 0-0.10 m layer compared to the 0.10-0.20 m layer. In the 0-0.10 m layer, bulk density values exceeding 1.44 Mg m-3 were found to restrict the growth and yield of white oat crops, while in the 0.10-0.20 m layer, grain yield was limited when soil bulk density surpassed 1.35 Mg m-3. Our results show that farmers should be aware of the consequences of machine traffic on soil properties as it can have negative effects on crop yields, especially those of white oats grown in clayey soil similar to the one evaluated in this experiment.

O açaí possui grande importância para a economia e dieta da população paraense; no entanto, é frequente a preocupação relacionada à qualidade desse alimento, uma vez que ele está susceptível a diversas contaminações, que vão desde a colheita até seu processamento. Sendo assim, o objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar as condições higiênico-sanitárias dos boxes que processam e comercializam açaí no mercado municipal, Ver-o-Peso em Belém-PA, avaliar a qualidade microbiológica desse produto, e averiguar a conformidade com os padrões estabelecidos pela legislação vigente. Para a avaliação higiênico-sanitária foi elaborado um checklist com 5 blocos de avaliação 31 itens e 100 subitens de verificação. Também foram realizadas análises microbiológicas (bolores e leveduras, Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp. e Staphylococcus aureus) nas amostras coletadas nesses pontos de venda. O resultado do checklist evidenciou que os índices de adequação para os blocos avaliados estão abaixo de 62,5%, sendo classificados no grupo regular e ruim. Quanto às análises microbiológicas, houve presença de Salmonella spp. e E. coli, e os valores para bolores e leveduras e S. aureus se apresentaram acima do que é preconizado pela legislação. Ambas avaliações foram ferramentas complementares e apresentaram baixa adequação às legislações vigentes. Portanto, consumo desse alimento apresenta risco à saúde do consumidor.

A cetose é uma enfermidade que acomete bovinos de leite de alta produção durante o periparto, gerando alterações clínicas, metabólicas e significativas perdas produtivas e econômicas. Este trabalho objetivou relatar três casos de cetose clínica em vacas leiteiras. Os três animais da raça Holandesa, criados em regime semi-intensivo, com histórico de parto há 40–45 dias, apresentavam sinais de apatia, inapetência e queda na produção de leite. Após o exame clínico e a realização de exames complementares, diagnosticou-se um caso de cetose clínica primária e dois casos de cetose clínica secundária à deslocamento de abomaso à esquerda ou anaplasmose. Os animais apresentaram hipercetonemia, cetonuria e normo ou hipoglicemia, os quais foram determinados através de testes rápidos. O tratamento foi instituído visando a redução da cetogênese, restabelecimento da glicemia e resolução das doenças concomitantes, com plena recuperação clínica e produtiva. O relato desses casos reforça a importância do conhecimento da enfermidade, destaca o uso de testes rápidos para o diagnóstico a campo de cetose, possibilitando o tratamento de maneira precoce e precisa, contribuindo assim para a redução dos prejuízos associados à sua ocorrência.

Published: February 2024

O Brasil possui uma posição de visibilidade na popularização de pesticidas no qual tem ocasionado problemas de saúde pública e ambiental. Assim, a busca por novos inseticidas naturais que atendam diretrizes adequadas são encontrados nas plantas, como é o caso dos compostos clitoriacetal e 6-desoxiclitoriacetal isolados de plantas do gênero Clitoria constituídos de rotenóides com atividade inseticida. Nesse contexto, o objetivo deste estudo consiste na investigação de toxicidade in silico em abelhas A. melífera dos pesticidas clitoriacetal e 6-desoxiclitoriacetal viabilizando a biossegurança destes organismos. Baseando-se nos modelos in silico: BeetoxAl© (toxicidade aguda oral) e docking molecular como critério de avaliação bioquímica. Dessa forma, foi estabelecido que os derivados clitoriacetal e 6-desoxiclitoriacetal apresentam potencial toxicológico por via oral (agudo) devido aos diversos sítios de aceitadores de hidrogênio e baixo valor quantitativo de exposição. E a partir do docking molecular pontua-se que os complexos formados entre os ligantes e proteína da A. melífera apresentam posições tridimensionais similares, mas não exprime nenhuma interação com aminoácidos do sítio de ligação da A. melífera conferindo-os baixa toxicidade. O estudo foi desenvolvido em caráter inicial, ou seja, ainda serão necessário melhoria e aprofundamentos das técnicas aplicadas e ampliações de novos ensaios in silico e in vivo.

Published: February 2024

The tribal people are the marginalised group in the country due to various features like geographical isolation and inability to access to the basic needs for their life. The constitution of India provides social and economic justice, equality of status and opportunity to all the citizens in the country. The government at the centre and the state made various efforts to uplift the living conditions of tribes thorough various measures. The Government of Tamil Nadu presented a number of benefit schemes for the STs, but the schemes have not reached the tribal groups. In this context, the comprehensive literature review seeks to provide a contemporary overview of the socio- economic development of Tamil Nadu Scheduled Tribes. The aim of the paper is to analyse the socio economic conditions of the scheduled tribes in Tamil Nadu and the constitutional safeguards for the welfare of the tribal communities in general through literature survey. This paper presents a brief description of the socio-economic characteristics of the Malayali Tribal people of Yercaud Taluk, Salem District of Tamil Nadu, on the basis of data collected through a field survey and second-hand information from various research studies.

Authors: Shatry N.A , Vogel J.P , Lubano K , Jaldesa G
Published: February 2024

Introduction: Puerperal sepsis is the third most common cause of maternal mortality worldwide. It remains  one of the leading preventable causes of maternal mortality. Given its significant burden in terms of  morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs, studies on hospital specific incidences and patterns are important  to help inform policy for its prevention and management. The aim of this study was to determine the  prevalence and factors associated with puerperal sepsis at Pumwani Maternity Hospital, Kenya.  

Methodology: We conducted a case-cohort study among post partum women admitted at Pumwani  Maternity Hospital. Eligible women were invited to respond to a verbal researcher administered  questionnaire assessing medical and obstetric history. Those recruited, were each called at day 7 and day  14 postpartum and asked a standard set of questions related to infection-related symptoms. In addition, all  enrolled women who attended a postnatal follow up visit at 14 days postpartum were reviewed, using a  history and clinical examination. The data was analysed to identify potential maternal risk factors associated  with occurrence of puerperal sepsis. 

Results: Seven hundred and ninety three postnatal mothers at Pumwani maternity hospital were recruited,  of which 566 women responded at two weeks postpartum. Sixty nine women among the 566 met the criteria  for puerperal sepsis. This corresponded to a prevalence of 12.2% at two weeks postpartum (95% CI 9.5 –  14.9%). Further analysis was done using 69 cases; each with 3 randomly selected controls. No deaths were  reported. Risk factors included labour lasting >24hours, caesarean section, obstructed labour, and multiple  vaginal examinations. 

Conclusion: The prevalence of puerperal sepsis in this cohort at two weeks postpartum at Pumwani  Maternity Hospital was at 12.2%(95% CI 9.5-14.9). Two or more vaginal examinations, prolonged and  obstructed labour, and Caesarean section were found to be significantly associated with increased odds of  puerperal sepsis. Appropriate measures like appropriate infection prevention protocols should be utilized in  order to prevent avoidable complications of labour and delivery that can lead to puerperal sepsis.

Rachmaninoff’s Preludes as a Cyclic Work
Authors: Nakagawa Eri
Published: February 2024

For over 18 years during the period 1892 to 1910, Sergei Rachmaninoff composed thePrelude, Op. 3, No. 2; 10 Preludes, Op. 23; and 13 Preludes, Op. 32. The key organization of Rachmaninoff’s 24 Preludes seems random at first glance, not based on any systematic order, as are the sets of Johann Sebastian Bach’s The Well-Tempered Clavier and Frédéric Chopin’s 24 Preludes, Op. 28. However, they consist of all the different major and minor keys and are uniquely integrated by cyclic manipulation of tonal relationships and thematic ideas. While they share numerous features, such as the use of common tones/chords, stepwise motion, chromatic lines, intervallic motives, and a certain rhythmic pattern, they also present divergent elements, such as bold key changes, irregular inclusion of relative- and parallel-key relationship, and effective contrasts in various aspects in many of consecutive preludes. The set of Rachmaninoff’s 24 Preludes is organized in his own unique, original, and meaningful system and conceptual design, which the author believes is highly successful as an integral, cyclic composition.
Institutional Cross-Ownership and Corporate Social Responsibility: Does Product Market Competition Matter?
Authors: NIZAR Hamza , HAMZA Taher
Published: February 2024

This paper investigates the relationship between institutional cross‐ownership and corporate social responsibility and whether product market competition moderates this relationship. Based on a sample of French firms over 2001–2015, we found that institutional cross‐ownership positively affects corporate social responsibility. Our finding suggests that the monitoring experience gained by institutional cross‐owners leads them to increase corporate social responsibility by fostering industry coordination between cross-owned firms. This positive effect is less likely in highly competitive product markets which advocates that competitive pressure may make industry coordination more difficult. Cross-owned firms may then prioritize maintaining a profitable margin over pursuing corporate social responsibility activities.
How do socially responsible companies engage in tax avoidance practices? Evidence from France
Authors: LAKHAL Faten , BEN SAAD Itidel , LAKHAL Nadia , GAAYA Safa
Published: February 2024

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is part of the larger debate on whether firms engage in CSR to promote social interests or strictly to achieve legitimacy and thus are implicitly involved in some form of greenwashing. This paper investigates the effect of CSR on corporate tax avoidance. It also examines the roles of corporate governance, leverage, and family ownership in the CSR–tax avoidance relationship. Based on a sample of French listed companies from 2005 to 2017, the results show that firms engaging in CSR adopt tax avoidance practices, supporting the risk management and agency theory perspectives. This suggests that firms adopt CSR to forge a positive reputation and hedge risky tax positions. The results also show that the disciplinary roles of debt and corporate governance mitigate this positive effect. Additional evidence shows that family-owned firms overinvesting in CSR are unlikely to engage in tax avoidance for socioeconomic wealth purposes. The results are robust to alternative measures of tax avoidance and endogeneity concerns.
Pulsed Field Ablation for the Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation: A Review and a Look into its Future
Authors: Guttipatti Pavithran , Saadallah Najla , Wan Elaine Y.
Published: February 2024

Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a novel technology to treat atrial fibrillation (AF) utilizing electric fields to induce nonthermal irreversible electroporation of electrically active cardiac tissue to induce cardiac cell death. PFA offers improved safety benefits compared to traditional radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and cryoablation by specifically ablating only cardiac tissue. However, there are avenues for further optimization including neurological risk associated with microbubble formation and left atrial function post ablation. Various PFA devices with different electric pulse waveforms have been studied and tested in human trials, with the majority utilizing microsecond duration pulses. Shorter nanosecond duration pulses, or nanosecond PFA, is beginning to be studied for AF ablation. In this review we will delve into current waveforms used for PFA, areas for improvement, mechanisms behind nanosecond PFA, and its clinical impact for cardiac ablation.
Beyond BCR::ABL1—The Role of Genomic Analyses in the Management of CML
Authors: Branford Susan , Fernandes Adelina , Shahrin NurHezrin , Maqsood Muneeza , Shanmuganathan Naranie , Wadham Carol
Published: February 2024

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a model of genomically based diagnosis and management where BCR::ABL1 is successfully targeted by tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy in most patients. The dynamics of BCR::ABL1 transcript decline during therapy is a dependable biomarker of response, relapse, and drug resistance. Missense mutations acquired within the BCR::ABL1 kinase domain that disrupt TKI binding can evolve during therapy and are frequently detected in patients for whom TKI treatment fails. Importantly, specific BCR::ABL1 missense mutations are targetable alterations and direct therapeutic decisions based on the individual mutant TKI sensitivity profile. Nevertheless, BCR::ABL1 mutations are only implicated in approximately half of the cases of acquired resistance. Furthermore, not all patients with a single BCR::ABL1 mutation that is predicted to be sensitive to a specific TKI will experience a response when switched to that TKI. Progression to blast phase heralds independence from BCR::ABL1, and this phase of the disease is notoriously difficult to treat. The independent drivers of resistance and disease progression have long been investigated to both predict progression and to find targets for therapeutic intervention. Recent data reaffirm that drug resistance and disease progression is a mutation-driven process in CML, and somatic variants in genes that are known to drive acute myeloid and lymphoid leukemia have been detected in patients in the advanced phases of CML. Genomic testing over the last few decades for patients with blood cancer has revealed of variety of genomic aberrations that drive disease. Consequently, incorporation of genomic factors into patient management for a range of blood cancers has led to the implementation of high-throughput gene testing to detect clinically actionable variants. Is it time to integrate broader genomic screening into clinical management strategies for patients with CML?

Protection of the EU’s Critical Infrastructures: Results and Challenges
Authors:   Faculty of Political Science, University of Zagreb, Croatia, Mikac Robert
Published: February 2024

At the end of 2022 and the beginning of 2023, the EU adopted several new legislative acts aimed at improving the resilience and protection of network and information systems and critical entities across the Union. The objective of this research is to list the said acts, show their interconnections and focus specifically on the analysis of potential weaknesses of two legislative acts, namely: the NIS2 Directive and the CER Directive. The NIS2 Directive is a significant piece of legislation that aims to improve the cybersecurity of the European Union, while the CER Directive is a crucial piece of legislation that aims to improve the physical security of critical entities in the Union. These two documents are applied in parallel and contain many mutual references, which means that weaknesses in one document can have significant consequences in the implementation of the other. Therefore, through standard desk-top analysis of primary and secondary sources, this paper reviews the protection of the EU's critical infrastructures results and challenges by primarily focusing on these two documents.

Published: February 2024

The encapsulation of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles with poly(methyl methacrylate) in the presence of triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) as a crosslinking agent was synthesized by the miniemulsion polymerization technique. The ZnO as a catalyze was varied from 1 wt% - 7 wt%. Several techniques were used to analyze the PMMA/TEGDMA/ZnO hybrid. The morphology and particle size distribution of the PMMA hybrid was observed using a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The diameter of the PMMA/TEGDMA/ZnO hybrid was in the range of 57 nm to 115 nm. The morphology of the PMMA/ZnO hybrids was sphere-shaped with a narrow particle size distribution and no agglomeration of the hybrids occurred. The encapsulation and crystalline structure of the PMMA ZnO hybrid were determined using a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM). The HR-TEM image demonstrated that the ZnO was encapsulated in the PMMA hybrid. In addition, the high magnification of the TEM image demonstrated the lattice spacing of ZnO and the diffraction mode image presented the crystalline structure of ZnO. Therefore, the photocatalytic properties of the PMMA/ZnO hybrid were examined via the degradation of methylene blue (MB) solution under dark and UV-A irradiation. It was found that the photocatalytic activities of the PMMA/ZnO hybrid increased when the ZnO content increased up to 7 wt%. The maximum MB degradation for PMMA/TEGDMA/ZnO 7 wt% and PMMA/ZnO 7 wt% were 80.1 % and 77.6 %, respectively. Thus, the photocatalytic efficiency of the PMMA/ZnO increased in the presence of TEGDMA as a crosslinking agent.

This review aims to examine the importance of psychodermatology in skincare, focusing on understanding the link between emotions and skin health. The study adopted a library research method focusing on integrative and comprehensive literature analysis to explore the interrelationship between psychodermatology and skincare. The results revealed that psychodermatology is crucial in detailing and addressing the dynamics of skin health and emotions. Involving the psychological dimension in skincare is a response to skin problems and a preventive measure that can positively impact an individual's skin and mental health. The findings highlight the influence of stress and emotions on skin health as a critical focus, as stress and emotional tension can trigger inflammatory responses that significantly affect skin conditions. Meanwhile, psychological interventions in skincare are emerging as innovative solutions that offer therapeutic approaches to help individuals manage stress, anxiety and self-image issues that may arise from skin conditions. Furthermore, the role of psychosocial factors in skin care confirms the importance of integrating self-image, appearance perception, and emotional support in designing treatment programs that focus on sustainability and overall well-being. Future studies should focus on identifying stressors that affect skin health and developing effective psychodermatology therapies for holistic skin care.
