Published: April 2024

Compreender as relações lineares entre caracteres de milho possibilita identificar caracteres adequados para a seleção indireta, afim de maximizar o ganho genético. Os objetivos desse estudo foram verificar, por meio da correlação, análise de trilha e árvore de regressão, se há relações lineares entre caracteres de bases genéticas (híbridos simples, triplos e duplos e variedades) de milho e, se há caracteres que possam ser utilizados na seleção indireta para a massa de grãos. Foi conduzido um experimento com genótipos de milho de quatro bases genéticas (híbridos simples, híbridos triplos, híbridos duplos e variedades), em cinco datas de semeadura na safra 2021/2022. Em cinco plantas de cada genótipo e data de semeadura (n = 1.915 plantas), foram mensurados os seguintes caracteres: comprimento do pendão, diâmetro da espiga, comprimento da espiga, número de fileiras de grãos por espiga, massa da espiga, diâmetro do sabugo, massa do sabugo, comprimento do grão e massa de grãos da espiga. Foram realizadas análises de correlação, trilha e árvore de regressão. Entre os pares de caracteres, foi observada maior associação linear positiva entre as massas da espiga e de grãos. A análise de trilha confirmou a relação linear de causa e efeito entre as massas da espiga e de grãos. A árvore de regressão evidenciou que a massa da espiga foi o principal nó de divisão da massa de grãos. Há relações lineares entre caracteres de bases genéticas (híbridos simples, triplos e duplos e variedades) de milho. Independentemente da base genética, a massa da espiga pode ser utilizada para selecionar, indiretamente, plantas de milho com maior massa de grãos.

Published: April 2024

After the oil and economic boom of the 20th century, Doha experienced significant development in terms of the architectural scene, design, function, and sociocultural transformations. The advancements in global architecture have facilitated innovative and streamlined construction processes, while creating a paradigm shift in the overall architecture of dwellings and how people navigate around the house. In this context, this research aims to study the impact of globalization on housing typologies and the factors influencing their evolution, focusing on the city of Doha as a case study. This study is based on a qualitative research approach that centers its investigation on Doha while exploring strategies for preserving Arabic-Islamic identity. The research investigation used a content analysis methodology to analyze three additional case studies within the MENA region. The results indicate that new housing typologies have emerged in cities due to globalization and changes in physical and sociocultural dimensions. In addition, preserving older neighborhoods and housing typologies through a bottom-up approach is essential for design creativity and climatic and sociocultural sensitivity while exchanging knowledge and sharing experiences between generations. Furthermore, this article promotes heritage awareness and encourages local authorities to preserve Doha’s surviving historic neighborhoods and architectural language to restore the city’s urban identity. The findings of this research can provide helpful guidance to architects and urban planners on how Doha’s housing has developed until the contemporary period.
Measuring the resilience of rural tourism in Indonesia using the Adjusted Mazziotta-Pareto index
Authors: Ariyani Nafiah , Fauzi Akhmad
Published: April 2024

Rural tourism plays a crucial role in rural development in Indonesia by providing employment opportunities, livelihood, infrastructure, cultural preservation, and environmental preservation. However, it is prone to external shocks such as natural disasters, public health events, and volatility in the national and global economy. This study measures the resilience of rural tourism to external shocks caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in 24 rural tourism destinations in Indonesia covering four years from 2019 to 2022. A synthetic composite index of the Adjusted Mazziotta-Pareto index (AMPI) is used to measure rural tourism resilience followed by clustering analysis to determine the typology of the resilience. The AMPI measure is also compared with the conventional Mazziotta-Pareto index (MPI) method. The resilience index is composed of capacity and performance components related to resilience. The results show that in the first year of COVID-19, most tourism villages in Indonesia were severely affected by the pandemic, yet they were able to recover afterward, as indicated by positive differences in the AMPI index before and after COVID-19. Thus, rural tourism villages in Indonesia have a strong capacity and performance to recover from pandemic shock. Lessons learned from this analysis can be applied to policies related to rural tourism resilience in developing countries.

Authors: De Lorenzi Davide , Maggi Giulia , Bertoncello Diana , Porciello Francesco , Marchesi Maria C.
Published: April 2024

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the efficacy, complications, and outcome of Dumon silicone stent placement for dogs with grade IV tracheal collapse.

ANIMALS

12 client-owned dogs.

CLINICAL PRESENTATION

Each dog was diagnosed with grade IV TC unresponsive to medical therapy and had severe obstructive respiratory failure.

RESULTS

12 dogs were included in the study. By the end of the study, 5 of 12 (41.7%) remained alive, while 7 of 12 (58.3%) dogs died. Survival times after stent placement ranged from 97 to 1,310 days (mean, 822.43 days; median, 810 days). Three of the 12 (25%) dogs died spontaneously, while 4 of 12 (33.3%) were euthanized. The cause of death was determined for 6 of 7 (85.7%) dogs and was TC related for 3 of 7 (50%). Causes of death related to TC were progressive airway collapse (2/3 [66.6%]) and incoercible cough (1/3 [33.4%]). Complications occurred in 9 of 12 (75%) cases and included granulation tissue growth (3/12 [25%]), incoercible cough (2/12 [16.7%]), stent migration (1/12 [8.3%]), and stent deformation (1/12 [8.3%]). Reduction of obstructive dyspnea and episodes of asphyxiation was achieved after Dumon silicone stent placement.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

The placement of an intraluminal Dumon silicone stent was a successful salvage treatment for TC in dogs that did not respond to medical management. Disease progression is inevitable, but substantial improvement of respiratory function may be achieved for months to years.

Authors: Vîlcea Cristiana , Popescu Liliana , Niþă Amalia
Published: April 2024

The public space environment is one of the critical influential factors for strengthening local identity and communities’ sense of belonging, while enhancing city life quality. This study focuses on the use of heritage buildings as a catalyst for reactivating public spaces and aims to explore to what extent the revitalization project for the historical centre of Craiova, a medium-sized post-socialist city, has succeeded. The three dimensions of revitalisation – physical, economic and social – were analysed using a mixed approach, including participant observation, field investigation, and a residents’ survey. Physical changes within the study area, improved accessibility, functional changes and economic restructuring were analysed, as well residents’ perceptions and use of the area (perceived changes, use of the place, types of places used by the residents, frequency, times spent). The results point to the fact that not all the three dimensions of the revitalization project were equally successful, proving once again that not all the actions are effective in delivering the best outcomes. The main beneficiaries are discussed and the outcome of the revitalisation project is analysed against similar projects in other countries.

Published: April 2024

Objective: The main objective of this study is to investigate the behavior among stock price, financial performance, and financial distress in Australian and New Zealand Stock Exchanges. Similar studies have been done on United States and European markets, but none on Australian and New Zealand Stock Exchanges. Our finding suggested that PE Ratio is not a reliable measure of financial performance in Australian and New Zealand Stock Exchanges.
 
Method: Altman’s Z-score is applied to reflect the financial distress of the large listed firms in Australian Stock Exchange and New Zealand Stock Exchange while expected return on total investment minus the market premium, which is associated with the overall risk of a firm, is used as a proxy to stock price performance. In addition, this study also investigates the various effects on profitability, financial leverage, liquidity, growth, and size factors on stock performance.
 
Results: Regression models are applied to investigate the stock performance upon independent variables’ effects. Results of the study show that all selected variables are reliable to use to measure performance, except P/E ratio. Moreover, Z-score, current ratio, P/E ratio, and ROE generally have significant positive relationship with stock price performance, while total assets, in general, have significant negative relationship with stock price performance.
 
Conclusion: This paper has a potential to contribute in knowledge of stock price and financial performance. It also examines financial distress of the market. The objective of the study is to examine the dynamics of stock prices using market value ratios and financial performance using financial ratios under financial distress of selective countries particularly. Using the empirical data from listed companies from the stock exchanges, this study determines the stock performance in a unique way with the combination of market value ratios and financial ratios.

Published: April 2024

Objective: This study focused on environmental education in children using the 3R method (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) through the animated series Boboiboy.
 
Theoretical  framework: The impartation of environmental education to the youth from an early age holds paramount significance. By nurturing environmental consciousness during childhood, individuals are more inclined towards adopting sustainable practices in adulthood.
 
Methods: The study used a qualitative method by analyzing Boboiboy's animated content from a three-episode "Jagalah Bumi". Conversations from several characters in this animated series are analyzed as study text as the main data.
 
Result and Discussion: Based on this analysis, it was found that this animation successfully outlined the concept of 3R in three episodes of "Take Care of the Earth", including showcasing the solid waste management process carried out at the landfill. Although 3R practices and solid waste management are two big issues for children to digest, the use of animations such as Boboiboy has been found to provide an overview of the concept and implementation and positive effects of connecting well.
 
Implications of the Research: The incorporation of 3R practices in animations like this tries to influence and leave an impression on Malaysian children indirectly so that they value the environment more and do not pollute the earth.
 
Originality/Value: This study directly gives a general awareness of the importance of environmental care. This awareness needs to be nurtured from childhood so that they grow up understanding the value and importance of the environment.

Spurred by the climate crisis, disasters are growing in frequency and severity around the world. In Western Canada, the impacts of the 2013 floods, 2016 wildfires, and the Covid-19 pandemic have devastated communities. Social workers, and human service professionals who assist in meeting the needs of individuals, families, groups, and communities in overcoming challenges, such as education assistants, outreach workers, and child and family support workers, are increasingly involved in the mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery phases of disasters. However, their role is not always visible or understood by emergency management professionals. Social work is a practice-based profession that responds to the needs of individuals, families, groups, and communities, and addresses barriers and injustices in organizations and society. This article shares the findings of the study “In the aftermath of the 2016 Alberta wildfires: The role of social work practitioners and human service professionals in long-term disaster recovery.” The study adopted a mixed-method research approach that recruited 140 participants to share their experiences in semi-structured interviews, an online survey, and focus groups. A thematic analysis of the data found that social workers and human service practitioners play many critical roles in disaster recovery. This includes advocacy, assessment, counselling, crisis intervention, trauma informed care, peer support, community development, providing services and programs, research, supporting first responders. Social workers can also provide valuable input into other disaster phases. For example, social workers are embedded in communities and have relationships with residents that can inform emergency plans. They provide emergency professionals insight into the needs of residents and bring collaboration skills that enhance preparedness and mitigation programs. The study findings call for greater recognition of the role of social workers and human service professionals in disasters by emergency management professionals. Implications and recommendations for social work and emergency management professionals are offered to facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration.

Published: April 2024

Understanding the current role volunteerism plays within the field of emergency management, the need for renewed commitment to volunteerism at the municipal level with a joint approach is now only exponentially growing as it is faced with the current issues posed by natural disasters.With the rise of community-implicating emergencies in Canada, particularly evidenced by the recent flooding, forest fires, and the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a growing need for coordination of emergency management. This is true at the federal and provincial levels, with volunteers at the municipal level leveraging their knowledge of their respective communities, their ability to provide situational awareness on local situations and demographics, and their capacity to undertake smaller, less specialized tasks in support of professional emergency management efforts.Through the shared experiences of three emergency first responders within the firefighting and paramedical communities, this article explores community volunteerism within the scope of emergency management, demonstrating its growing importance. It further provides practical recommendations on the expansion of the community and ways that municipalities can continue to support first responders moving forward, seeking to establish the framework for an approach similar to the military approach to the Joint Interagency Multinational and Public (JIMP) environment.
A Voice for Ontario Teachers in Disaster and Emergency Planning: A Case study of Teachers’ Experiences During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Cowan S. , Paterson J.
Published: April 2024

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic revealed a stark disconnect within the Ontario education system between the decision-makers at the system level (the Ministry of Education and school boards) and classroom teachers tasked with implementing these decisions. Interviews for this study provided primary and secondary school teachers in central and southern Ontario an opportunity to share their experience teaching during an extended public health disaster. The teachers focused the conversation on their frustration at the top-down decision-making from the school board and Ministry of Education and expressed that their needs as teachers were not adequately considered in the planning and response to the COVID-19 pandemic. They explained a range of impacts resulting from the lack of inclusion in the decision-making, including the erosion of their ability to carry out classroom planning, the deterioration of the quality of education delivered, and the harm to their well-being. The findings of this research recommend that one way to address this gap in the Ontario education system and mitigate the damaging effects, such as those experienced during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, is for meaningful consultation between classroom teachers and system-level decision-makers. The sentiments expressed by the participants in this study are a call for emergency practitioners within the Ontario education system to do better when it comes to including the voices and needs of teachers in preparedness and response efforts during extended public health emergencies.

The Kien ty syrup is formulated from six medicinal materials, including Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae, Fructus Aurantii immaturus, Radix Codonopsis, Rhizoma Atractylodis macrocephalae, Fructus Crataegi, Fructus Hordei germinatus and sodium benzoate as a preservative. Hesperidin, a bioflavonoid found in Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae, Fructus Aurantii immaturus, is used to assess the syrup's quality in terms of assay. In this study, an HPLC method for simultaneous determination of hesperidin and sodium benzoate in Kien ty syrup was developed. The method was performed on an Agilent C18 column (250 × 4.6 mm; 5 μm) with the mobile phase being a mixture of 0.05 M phosphate buffer solution pH 5.5: acetonitrile (70:30, v/v), running in a isocratic elution mode. The flow rate was set at 1.0 mL/min, and the injection volume was 10 μL. The analytes were detected at 225 nm. The method was validated and met the requirements according to ICH, AOAC guidelines. Applying the developed quantification method, the analysis of three sirup lots revealed that the content of hesperidin and sodium benzoate ranged from 0.480-0.504 mg/mL and 2.869-2.306 mg/mL, respectively. The study results indicate that this quantification method can be applied for simultaneous determination of hesperidin and sodium benzoate in Kien ty syrup and similar products.
