Authors: R S Parvathy , S Sivakkumar , R Meenakumari
Published: January 2022

Indian tribes constitute around 8.3% of the total population. The health problems of tribal communities are influenced by the interaction of various socioeconomic and political factors. An attempt is made to document the traditional knowledge of the Kani tribes in the floristically rich Peringamala panchayath of Thiruvananthapuram district. The investigation revealed that the Kani tribes were using 127 species of ethnomedicinal plants, belonging to 57 families. The most cited family was Fabaceae and leaves were the most frequently used plant parts for the treatment of various diseases. Some medicinal plants used by Kani tribes which are included in the list of rare and endangered categories, such as Aristolochia tagala, Holostemma adakodien, Entada scandens, Anaphyllum beddomeii, decalepsis arayalpathra which are vanishing from the tribal settlement areas. So special attention should be given to cultivate and conserve these rare medicinal plants by making them available for mass cultivation, either through conventional methods or other non-conventional methods like micropropagation. The study showed that the Kani tribes have good knowledge about medicinal plants that have been passed orally from generation to generation. Current healers may be the final generation of Kani tribal healers. Due to rapid socio-economic and cultural changes, there is a possibility of losing the treasure of tribal knowledge in near future. The wealth of this tribal knowledge would lead to a greater potential for the Indian system of medicine towards new drug discovery and development.

India stands 27th in rank with 25.8% of death rate due to Liver diseases in 2016. In spite of scientific advancement in the field of Hepatology, Bio-medical science is clueless in finding out an effective drug against Hepatic Disorders. Detailed description on liver disorders and their management are given by all the three prominent Acharyas of Ayurveda. Rasa Bhasma is one such preparation that can be used to treat Hepatic Disorders. In present work an attempt has been made to evaluate the efficacy of Rasa Bhasma in the management of liver disorders. 24 animals were allocated into 4 groups having six animals in each group namely Group I (Normal/Control), Group II (Intoxicated Control) Toxicated Group, Group III (lower dose of Rasa Bhasma) and Group IV (Higher dose of Rasa Bhasma). All the four group were assessed for various biochemical Parameters viz. Alkaline phosphatase, SGOT (Serum glutamate oxalacetate transaminase)/AST, SGPT (Serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase)/ALT, Total Bilirubin, Direct Bilirubin and Total Proteins. Finally, the animals from all the four groups were sacrificed for Histo-pathological studies. The results were expressed as mean ± SE and One way ANOVA by using statistical software SPSS version 16.0. Results revealed that the values of Group 4 are closer to the Normal Group1 than Group 3 meaning Rasa Bhasma in Higher dose is more effective than that in lower dose. Therefore, it can be concluded that Rasa Bhasma is a potent Herbo-mineral formulation for protection of hepatic cells.

Published: January 2022

Inflammation is found as a common pathogenic process in many of the chronic diseases. To manage them drugs having multiple active principles is needed. Here comes the importance of easily available, potent herbal medicines. Drynaria quercifolia (L.) J. Sm., is a medicinal fern and its rhizome is an ingredient of some Ayurvedic formulations with inflammation. Through present study in vivo analysis of powder (choorna) of the drug were done. Wistar Albino rats were used for the purpose. One group was control (no treatment) and the other three were treated groups given with the suspension of powdered drug in half the calculated effective dose (0.108 gm/200 gm b. Wt.), calculated effective dose (0.216gm/200 gm b. Wt.) and double the calculated effective dose (0.432 gm/200 gm b. Wt.). Repeated measures ANNOVA with Tukey’s post hoc analysis was used as statistical tool to analyse results within the group and one way ANNOVA with Tukey’s post hoc analysis was used for between group analysis. In all the three treated groups significant reduction in paw oedema noted at 2nd hour and maximum reduction at 4th hour after drug administration. But a highly significant reduction in paw oedema at shortest time after drug intake was produced by group administered with double the calculated effective dose of the drug. This showed dose dependent anti-inflammatory action of powder of rhizome of Drynaria quercifolia (L.) J. Sm. This activity can be due to the presence of anti-inflammatory phytoconstituents in the rhizome such as naringin, quercetin, friedelin, betasitosterol, etc.

На сегодняшний день улучшение экономической безопасности в регионе определяет пути развития региона в целом. Проведение оценки экономической безопасности региона имеет весомое значение, однако не существует каких-либо регламентированных способов в российском законодательстве. Уровень социально-экономического развития каждого региона России так же подвержен различным угрозам, особенно экономическим. Тем не менее именно благополучие всех регионов определяет уровень развития и безопасности страны, что создает необходимость проведения систематической оценки экономической безопасности. Поэтому данная проблема становится все более актуальной. Перед всеми регионами России стоит необходимость создания какой-то унифицированной комплексной методики оценки экономической безопасности региона. С помощью анализа различных подходов к понятию «устойчивого развития региона», а также рассмотрения основных регламентирующих нормативно-правовых актов в данной статье было получено, что обеспечение экономической безопасности в каждом регионе обусловливает защищенность российской экономики перед внутренними и внешними угрозами, а также способствует устойчивому социальному и экономическому развитию, поскольку государство становится способным реализовать свои национальные проекты во всех сферах общества. На основании различных методик оценки экономической безопасности в регионе был произведен отбор, по мнению авторов, наиболее весомых показателей экономической безопасности в регионе и проведен анализ экономической безопасности на примере региона России - Курской области.

It is felt that Modern Banking has become wholly customer – driven and technology driven. During the last decade, technology has been dramatically transforming the banking activities in India. Driven by challenges on competition, rising customer expectation and shrinking margins, banks have been using technology to reduce cost. Apart from competitive environment, there has been deregulation as to rate of interest, technology intensive delivery channel like Internet Banking, Tele Banking, Mobile banking and Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) etc. have created a multiple choice to user of the bank. The banking business is becoming more and more complex with the changes emanating from the liberalization and globalization. For a new bank, customer creation is important, but an established bank it is the retention is much more efficient and cost effective mechanism. Customer Relationship Management (CRM) would also make Indian bankers realize that the purpose of their business is to create and keep a customer and to view the entire business process as consisting of Highly Integrated effort to discover, create and satisfy customer needs. But it is surprising to note that much of the activities of the banking and financial remain focused on customer creation not retention.

ANÁLISE DA VIABILIDADE DA QUELONICULTURA NO MUNICÍPIO DE TEFÉ: CONSERVAÇÃO DE ESPÉCIES E GERAÇÃO DE RENDA
Authors: Alves Derek , Barros Paulo Berti de Azevedo
Published: January 2022

O estado do Amazonas sempre foi cercado de inúmeras possibilidades de exploração econômica, seja ela destrutiva, puramente extrativista, ou simplesmente inovadora e altamente sustentável do ponto de vista ecológico, baseada em uma rigorosa legislação e altas multas. Dessa forma, a prática de qualquer atividade econômica que esteja em desconformidade com as normas ambientais torna-se altamente inviável. Esses fatores contribuíram substancialmente para a popularização de condutas sociais ecologicamente sustentáveis. O consumo de quelônios sempre foi uma matriz muito forte nessa região do país. A exploração de forma clandestina e ilegal foram os principais fatores responsáveis pelo declínio de várias espécies de quelônios. A quelonicultura é uma atividade que apresenta enorme potencial econômico e pode contribuir de maneira substancial para o desenvolvimento socioambiental das comunidades e municípios do interior do estado, ao mesmo tempo que combate o caráter predatório das espécies e contribui para sua retirada da triste lista de animais ameaçados de extinção.

O conhecimento das características da paisagem em uma microbacia e os fatores que atuam sobre ela, fornecem informações essenciais para o manejo sustentável dos recursos naturais. Assim, objetivou-se com o trabalho, analisar as características hidrogeomorfométricas e a dinâmica da cobertura do solo na microbacia do rio Santa Inês, utilizando técnicas de sensoriamento remoto e equações. A microbacia tem área de 41,88 km2, perímetro de 30,35 km, forma intermediária, altitudes de 231 a 479 m, predominância de relevo ondulado, 69,60% da área da microbacia considerada de baixa influência na propagação de incêndios e apta a extremamente apta a mecanização agrícola, rede de drenagem com padrão dendrítico, elevadas condições para habitação de peixes, alta densidade de nascentes, alta densidade de drenagem, canal principal divagante, coeficiente de manutenção de 266,9 m2 m-1 e tempo de concentração de 2,71 h. A área de floresta nativa passou por constantes reduções na microbacia e na zona ripária, durante o período de 1990 a 2020, para a implantação de sistemas agropecuários, restando apenas 22,42% e 28,67% da área total, respectivamente. A microbacia do rio Santa Inês é propícia para o cultivo agrícola na região norte e o desenvolvimento de sistemas pecuários na região sul, contudo, recomenda-se a conservação das áreas de matas ciliares e adoção de práticas integradas de manejo conservacionistas do solo e da água, a fim de conciliar o desenvolvimento econômico e a conservação dos recursos naturais da região.

O planejamento e a gestão dos recursos naturais é essencial para alcançar o desenvolvimento sustentável na região amazônica, e tem como base as características da paisagem. Diante disso, o objetivo do presente estudo foi disponibilizar informações sobre as características hidrogeomorfométricas da paisagem e da dinâmica da cobertura do solo na microbacia Prosperidade, Amazônia Ocidental, Brasil. As informações foram obtidas com técnicas de sensoriamento remoto, utilizando softwares (QGIS 2.10.1, Google Earth e TrackMaker Free) e imagens de satélites (ALOS, Landsat 5 e Landsat 8), e equações. A microbacia tem área de 24 km2, perímetro de 27,21 km, forma alongada, altitudes de 241 a 331 m, relevos planos a forte ondulados, rede de drenagem de 35,52 km com padrão dendrítico, rios de 4ª ordem, 2,71 nascentes km-2, densidade de drenagem de 1,48 km km-2, coeficiente de manutenção de 675,7 m2 m-1, índice de sinuosidade de 20,97% e tempo de concentração de 3,01 h. No período de 1984 a 2021, ocorreu um aumento da área de agropecuária e uma redução da área de floresta nativa na microbacia e na zona ripária. A microbacia tem potencial para o desenvolvimento de atividades agropecuárias, contudo, o desmatamento na zona ripária está comprometendo a qualidade dos recursos hídricos. Recomenda-se a manutenção da vegetação nativa remanescente, recuperação da vegetação nativa na zona ripária, adoção de práticas conservacionistas nos sistemas agropecuários e a introdução do componente arbóreo como fonte econômica (ex: sistemas agroflorestais, silvipastoris e agrossilvipastoris).

Published: January 2022

Uma sociedade com um maior viés de sustentabilidade requer transformações que englobam todas as dimensões da sociedade. Nesse contexto, as startups são viabilizadoras eficientes de inovações em favor da sociedade que possibilitam práticas sustentáveis. Assim surge a necessidade de se pensar no ambiente, no social e também na governança, ou seja, ESG (sigla em inglês que significa ambiental, social e governança) promovendo ações estratégicas para sustentabilidade das comunidades futuras. Nesse cenário, as startups têm que viabilizar ações estratégicas através de modelos de negócios que sejam concebidos através do ESG. Assim a problemática deste estudo foi: quais as relações entre modelos de negócios, ESG e startup? Para tanto, o objetivo da pesquisa foi: analisar as relações entre modelos de negócios, ESG e startups. Para tanto a metodologia foi uma análise bibliométrica no Google Scholar, focando no período de 2019 a 2021. Os resultados apontaram a existência de algumas lacunas referentes a este nicho de mercado, principalmente no que tange aos modelos de negócios das startups, as quais tem dificuldades de se enquadrar nos modelos tradicionais, o qual leva ao desempenho negativo das mesmas, métricas não padronizadas utilizadas para análises de ESG e sustentabilidade corporativas.

Este estudo objetiva analisar o enraizamento que os produtores e consumidores apresentam em sua interação nos mercados locais por meio dos estudos empíricos nas cadeias curtas de abastecimento de alimentos. Para tanto, utilizou-se a metodologia de revisão sistemática para analisar as publicações sobre as cadeias curtas de abastecimento de alimentos, disponibilizadas nas bases Web of Science, SCOPUS e material complementar. Para isso, utilizou-se como apoio o software Ucinet®. Os resultados encontrados apontaram que, dos 26 trabalhos pesquisados, publicados de 2014 até 2019, 21 possuem aplicabilidade empírica. É possível vislumbrar, nesses estudos, que o aspecto social é o que possui o maior destaque, porque são capazes até de servir de ponte entre diferentes mundos sociais, tanto em seus componentes de necessidades quanto nos de seu potencial. Já o aspecto econômico aparece às vezes de forma neutra ou tendo a principal motivação na redução de custos de transporte e eliminação dos agentes intermediários que representavam gastos pesados. Algumas questões, como os cuidados ambientais de pequena escala em pequenas propriedades, por exemplo, mostram-se como lacunas do estudo, o que suscita a questão: as SFSCs (Short food supply chains) serão capazes de limitar os danos ambientais gerados e se conseguirão, além disso, promover externalidades positivas produzidas por alguns modelos de agricultura, em termos de aprimoramento da paisagem ou de proteção da agrobiodiversidade? O papel da confiança na relação produtor/consumidor mereceu destaque. Os demais estudos são pesquisas referentes ao perfil de consumidores ou de agricultores, pesquisas de comportamento e sociodemográficas.
