Le occupazioni di terreno sono tornate in Cile. Riflessioni sull'informalità urbana
Authors: Giannotti Emanuel , Braithwaite Santiago
Published: January 2024

In Cile gli insediamenti informali sono ricominciati a crescere, soprattutto negli ultimi tre anni, dopo decenni in cui erano costantemente diminuiti. A cosa si deve questo improvviso aumento? Molti hanno indicato cause strutturali, come la migrazione o l'aumento dei prezzi degli affitti e degli alloggi. In linea con una letteratura recente sull'informalità urbana, nel presente articolo offriamo una lettura alternativa, attenta alle relazioni con le istituzioni e il sistema politico. Attraverso interviste, revisione di documenti e della stampa, sosteniamo la tesi che l'esplosivo aumento occorso negli ultimi anni è strettamente legato alla crisi sociale e politica causata dalle proteste scoppiate nell'ottobre del 2019.

Published: January 2024

Our understanding of avian incubation behaviour is primarily derived from species that nest in the temperate conditions of spring and summer. This leaves uncertainties about strategies employed by a relatively small number of species adapted to breed under sub-zero, winter-like conditions. We used in-nest temperature loggers (iButtons) to monitor incubation behaviours of Canada Jays, cache-reliant, year-round residents of boreal and sub-alpine environments that breed in the late winter/early spring and have female-only incubation. Females had high levels of daytime nest attentiveness (92 ± 3% of daytime spent on the nest; ± SD), taking an average of only 5.5 (± 0.1) off-bouts per day with a mean duration of 13.3 (± 0.2) min. per bout. Variation in nest attentiveness was primarily driven by off-bout duration, suggesting that the number of off-bouts per day may be limited to reduce nest activity around the nest and avoid attracting nest predators. In contrast to expectations, weather conditions (mean daily temperature and total daily rainfall) were not associated with variation in either the number or duration of off-bouts. Our results suggest that incubation strategies of Canada Jays are likely not shaped by prevailing weather conditions but instead by predation threat and availability of cached food, the latter of which reduces foraging opportunity costs by allowing females to reliably acquire sufficient food during the few times they leave the nest each day.

Authors: Wadodi Barakatullah , Tariq Atequllah
Published: January 2024

The research dealt with the topic “The ruling on AL-qeraah al-shazzah to the Hanafi school,” and the research problem appears through the research’s attempt to answer the following question: What is irregular reading and the difference between it and frequent reading, and what is the ruling on using it as evidence according to the Hanafi masters? The research aims to find out the types of irregular reading, the opinions of the jurists regarding its acceptance or non-acceptance, the conditions for its acceptance in the Hanafi rulings, their argument for that, and to clarify whether the irregular reading was a recited Qur’an and then copied from the recitation or is it in the ruling of single narrations, and whatever the case, the reading The anomalous has a major role in proving and clarifying jurisprudential rulings. During the research, we attributed the sayings to their authors and their original references with all honesty, and in the end, we arrived at the most important results of the research expected by God’s will and power.

The surge in generative artificial intelligence technologies, exemplified by systems such as ChatGPT, has sparked widespread interest and discourse prominently observed on social media platforms like Twitter. This paper delves into the inquiry of whether sentiment expressed in tweets discussing advancements in AI can forecast day-to-day fluctuations in stock prices of associated companies. Our investigation involves the analysis of tweets containing hashtags related to ChatGPT within the timeframe of December 2022 to March 2023. Leveraging natural language processing techniques, we extract features, including positive/negative sentiment scores, from the collected tweets. A range of classifier machine learning models, encompassing gradient boosting, decision trees and random forests, are employed to train on tweet sentiments and associated features for the prediction of stock price movements among key companies, such as Microsoft and OpenAI. These models undergo training and testing phases utilizing an empirical dataset gathered during the stipulated timeframe. Our preliminary findings reveal intriguing indications suggesting a plausible correlation between public sentiment reflected in Twitter discussions surrounding ChatGPT and generative AI and the subsequent impact on market valuation and trading activities concerning pertinent companies, gauged through stock prices. This study aims to forecast bullish or bearish trends in the stock market by leveraging sentiment analysis derived from an extensive dataset comprising 500,000 tweets. In conjunction with this sentiment analysis derived from Twitter, we incorporate control variables encompassing macroeconomic indicators, Twitter uncertainty index and stock market data for several prominent companies.
Exploring Interdisciplinary Team Teaching as a Pedagogical Strategy for Developing ESP Teachers’ Subject Matter Knowledge
Authors: RAHA YASSINE , Mima Walid , Benmhamed Mohamed
Published: January 2024

English for Specific Purposes (ESP) has rapidly gained considerable importance due to the position of English as a lingua franca in various scientific and economic domains. This paper aims to highlight ESP practitioners' attitudes towards implementing interdisciplinary team teaching and the potential barriers that hinder its implementation in the business school at Ibn Tofail University. To achieve these objectives, a qualitative research design was adopted, and semi-structured interviews were conducted with five ESP practitioners in the business school. The study reveals that the five interviewed teachers have positive attitudes towards interdisciplinary team teaching in the business school. However, the five interviewed ESP practitioners have been reluctant to implement co-teaching, which is the highest level of collaboration and interaction between ESP practitioners and content teachers, due to personal, pedagogical, and administrative constraints.
ІНТЕГРОВАНИЙ РОЗВИТОК МОНОФУНКЦІОНАЛЬНОГО МІСТА ГОРІШНІ ПЛАВНІ
Authors: Клименко А.В. , Гнатюк О.М.
Published: January 2024

Близько чверті українських міст є монофункціональними й усе частіше постають перед проблемами й викликами свого соціально-економічного та просторового розвитку. Одним із можливих шляхів трансформації таких міст у напрямі диверсифікації їх економічної бази і створення більш комфортного міського середовища є розроблення й утілення концепції інтегрованого розвитку. Метою дослідження є аналіз проблем соціально-економічного та просторового розвитку монофункціонального міста Горішні Плавні й розроблення пропозицій щодо їх вирішення з використанням принципів інтегрованого міського розвитку. Для досягнення поставленої мети автори здійснили концептуалізацію проблематики соціально-економічного та просторового розвитку монофункціональних міст, визначили нинішній стан соціально-економічного та просторового розвитку, а також інституційної основи міста Горішні Плавні, проаналізували містобудівну документацію Горішніх Плавнів на відповідність принципам інтегрованого розвитку, здійснили опитування про сприйняття місцевим населенням комфортності міського середовища Горішніх Плавнів. Виявлено, що основна стратегічна й містобудівна документація міста Горішні Плавні загалом відповідає принципам інтегрованого міського розвитку, проте наявні проблеми з виконанням закладених у них стратегічних та оперативних цілей міського розвитку й містобудівних рішень. Результати опитування населення міста дали змогу виявити низку проблемних аспектів міського розвитку та бачення міської громади щодо бажаних напрямів подальшого перетворення міського простору. Зокрема, виявлено відсутність інформації про маршрути громадського транспорту та їх малу кількість, низьку залученість мешканців до управління містом, недостатню кількість якісних закладів сфери послуг, занедбаність публічних просторів, зокрема набережної, тощо. Така ситуація склалася через відсутність діалогу між владою та населенням, що спричинило відсутність вирішення нагальних питань у планувальних документах. У заключній частині, відповідно до ідентифікованих проблем розвитку міста за результатами об’єктивного аналізу й соціологічного опитування, а також змісту наявної містобудівної документації, подано пропозиції для подальшого розвитку Горішніх Плавнів з урахуванням принципів інтегрованості у таких сферах: транспорт, публічні простори, екологія, управління, зв’язок з громадою й туризм.

Amaç: Bu çalışma adölesanların Akdeniz diyetine uyum, duygusal yeme ve stres durumları arasındaki ilişkinin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır.
Bireyler ve Yöntem: Çalışma yaşları 11-14 yıl arasında değişen 281 gönüllü adölesanla yürütülmüştür. Katılımcıların genel özellikleri saptanmış, ayrıca Akdeniz Diyeti Kalite İndeksi (Mediterranean Diet Quality Index, KIDMED), Beslenme Egzersiz Davranışları Ölçeği (BEDÖ), Algılanan Stres Ölçeği (ASÖ) ve Çocuk ve Adölesanlar için Duygusal Yeme Ölçeğini (DYÖ-Ç) içeren anket formu uygulanmış; antropometrik ölçümleri (vücut ağırlığı, boy uzunluğu, bel çevresi) yapılmıştır.
Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan adölesanların %58.4’ü erkek, %41.6’sı kız olup; yaş ortalamaları erkeklerin 11.94±1.08 yıl, kızların 12.30±1.15 yıldır (p<0.05). Katılımcıların %27.8’i hafif şişman, %16.7’si obezdir. Erkeklerin Beden Kütle İndeksi (BKİ) kızlara göre anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksektir (p=0.03). Katılımcıların Akdeniz diyetine %25.3’ünün düşük, %53.0’ünün orta, %21.7’sinin yüksek uyum gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir. Cinsiyetler arasında Akdeniz diyetine uyum açısından önemli düzeyde farklılıklar bulunmuştur (χ2=7.412; p=0.025); erkeklerde Akdeniz diyetine düşük ve yüksek düzeyde uyum sağlayanların oranı, kızlara göre daha yüksektir. Adölesanlarda yaş ve BKİ arttıkça psikolojik bağımlı yeme davranışının arttığı ve sağlıklı beslenme-egzersiz davranışının azaldığı tespit edilmiştir (p<0.05). Ayrıca kızlarda BKİ ile DYÖ-Ç arasında pozitif yönlü anlamlı korelasyon saptanmıştır. Yapılan lojistik regresyon analizi sonucunda bir yaş büyük olmak ve erkek cinsiyete sahip olmak Akdeniz diyetine düşük uyum riskini sırasıyla; 1.30, 2.15 kat artırmaktadır (p<0.05). Algılanan stres düzeyi yükseldiğinde, Akdeniz diyetine düşük uyum riski artmakta; BEDÖ puanı artığında düşük uyum riski azalmaktadır (p<0.05).
Sonuç: Erkek adölesanların, yaşı büyük olanların ve stres düzeyi yüksek olanların Akdeniz diyetine düşük uyum riski artmaktadır. Bu çalışmada stres düzeyindeki artışın sağlık beslenme davranışını olumsuz yönde etkilediği saptanmıştır. Akdeniz diyeti, duygusal yeme ve stres arasındaki ilişkiyi belirleyebilecek daha kapsamlı çalışmalara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.
Aralıklı Açlık (IF) ve Kanser: Literatürün Gözden Geçirilmesi
Authors: Yurt Büşra , Göbel Pınar
Published: January 2024

Günümüzde tüm dünyada yaşanan ölümlerde payı yüksek olan kanser, bulaşıcı olmayan kronik hastalıklardan biridir. Bunun yanında kanser insidansı ve buna bağlı ölüm oranı her geçen gün artmaktadır. Kanser hastalığından ölen insan sayısı 2018 yılında 9.6 milyon iken tahminler 2030 yılında bu sayının 13.2 milyona ulaşacağını göstermektedir. Kanser, genetik yatkınlık, ırk, cinsiyet gibi değiştirilemeyen faktörlerin yanı sıra sedanter yaşam, obezite, sağlıksız beslenme gibi değiştirilebilen faktörlerden kaynaklı ortaya çıkabilen çok faktörlü bir hastalıktır. Günümüzde kansere karşı henüz kesin tedavi bulunamaması ve kansere yönelik uygulanan tedavi yöntemlerinin yan etkilere yol açması farklı stratejilere ihtiyacı arttırmıştır. Bu derlemede kansere karşı potansiyel bir strateji olarak açlık (F) ve aralıklı açlık (IF) incelenmiştir. Yapılan çalışmalarda; aralıklı açlığın, sağlıklı hücreleri yavaş bir büyümeye sevk ettiği, sağlıklı hücreleri antikanser ilaçların toksik etkisine karşı koruduğu ve farklı kanser hücrelerini bu terapötiklere karşı daha duyarlı hale getirdiğinden bahsedilmektedir. Yapılan çalışmalar açlığın ve aralıklı açlığın kansere karşı terapötik etkileri konusunda umut vericidir. Fakat çalışmalardan elde edilen sonuçlar aralıklı açlığın oldukça riskli ve hassas bir grup olan kanser hastalarında klinik uygulama için yeterli olmadığını göstermektedir.

Authors: Doğanay Derya , Bakkal Leman Zeynep , Görey Ceren Nida , Büyükbektaş Tuğba
Published: January 2024

Ultra işlenmiş besinler biyoaktif bileşikler, mikro besin ögeleri ve lifler açısından fakir; şeker, yağ ve sodyum açısından zengin besinlerdir. Ultra işlenmiş besinleri oluşturan bileşenlerin çoğu koruyucular, emülgatörler, çözücüler, stabilizatörler, tatlandırıcılar, duyusal özellik arttırıcılar ve renklendiriciler gibi gıda katkı maddeleridir. Son yıllarda bu besinlerin tüketiminde artış görüldüğü bilinmektedir. Basit şeker ve yağ tüketimindeki artış; lif tüketimindeki azalma bağırsak mikrobiyotasının kompozisyon ve fonksiyonlarındaki değişikliklerle doğrudan ilişkilidir. Bu durum bağırsak geçirgenliğini arttırabilir. Ultra işlenmiş besin tüketimi ile obezite, yüksek tansiyon ve kanser gibi bulaşıcı olmayan kronik hastalıkların görülme sıklığı arasında da bir ilişki olduğu ifade edilebilir. Gıda katkı maddelerinin deney hayvanlarında bağırsak mikrobiyotası çeşitliliğini azalttığına dair çalışmalar bulunmaktadır fakat insanlarda ultra işlenmiş besinlerin ve gıda katkı maddelerinin mikrobiyotaya direkt etkisi üzerine yeteri kadar çalışma bulunmamaktadır. Bu derlemenin amacı ultra işlenmiş besin tüketiminin ve özellikle gıda katkı maddelerinin mikrobiyota üzerindeki etkilerini literatür eşliğinde incelemektir.

Gıda okuryazarlığı puanlarına göre, yaş, eğitim durumu ve beden kütle indeksi (BKİ) gruplar arasında farklı iken (p<0.05) hedonik açlık toplam puanı ise farklı değildir (p>0.05). Besin gücü ölçeği alt faktörlerinden “besin mevcudiyeti” puanı, gıda okuryazarlığı düşük olan bireylerde daha yüksek bulunmuştur (p<0.05). Beslenme alışkanlıkları değerlendirildiğinde, öğün atlama nedeninin gıda okuryazarlığı grupları arasında farklılık gösterdiği bulunmuştur (p<0.05).
Sonuç: Bu çalışmada gıda okuryazarlığı puanlarına göre gruplar arasında farklı faktörlerin olduğu görülmüştür. Sağlık çalışanlarının bu özellikleri göz önüne alınarak gıda okuryazarlığının artırılmasına yönelik eğitimler planlanabilir.
Farklı Hazırlama ve Pişirme İşlemlerinin Kurubaklagillerin Besin Değeri Üzerine Etkisi
Authors: Tekin Nasminel , Navruz Varlı Semra
Published: January 2024

Birleşmiş Milletler Gıda ve Tarım Örgütü (Food and Agriculture Organization, FAO) tarafından “kurufasulye, bezelye ve mercimeği de içeren, taneleri için hasatı yapılan legüminöz mahsuller” olarak ifade edilen kurubaklagiller, Leguminosae familyasına aittir. Kurubaklagiller kompleks karbonhidratlar, protein, vitamin, mineral, posa kaynağı olduklarından ve biyoaktif içeriklerinden dolayı sağlıklı beslenme açısından önem taşımaktadır. Kurubaklagillerin tüketime uygun hale getirilmesi için ıslatma, kabuk ayırma, çimlendirme, geleneksel pişirme, otoklavlama, mikrodalgada pişirme ve ekstrüzyon gibi çeşitli hazırlama, pişirme ve ısıl işlemler kullanılmaktadır. Genellikle ısıl işlemler sonucunda kurubaklagillerin makro ve mikro besin ögelerinde kayıplar olur. Uygulanan farklı hazırlama ve pişirme işlemlerinin kurubaklagillerde besin ögesi emilimini olumsuz etkileyen anti-besinsel faktörlerin azaltılmasında ve protein, nişasta sindirilebilirliğinin artırılmasında rolü vardır. Farklı hazırlama ve pişirme işlemlerinin kurubaklagillerin besin değerine olan etkisini değerlendirmek için farklı kurubaklagil türleri ve farklı hazırlama ve pişirme yöntemleri kombinasyonlarını içeren daha kapsamlı ileri çalışmalar yapılmalıdır. Her bir kurubaklagil türü için optimal ıslatma koşullarının (süre, ıslatma suyu türü ve sıcaklığı vb.) ve pişirmede optimal süre-sıcaklık değerlerinin belirlenmesi ile hem besin ögesi korunumu maksimize edilebilecek hem de daha az enerji kullanımıyla sürdürülebilir beslenmeye katkı sağlanabilecektir. Bu derlemenin amacı farklı hazırlama ve pişirme işlemlerinin kurubaklagillerin besin değeri üzerine etkisini değerlendirmektir.

Growth in revenue and earnings management practices in Nigeria pre- and post-IFRS adoption periods
Authors: Enakirerhi Lucky Izobo , Ighosewe Felix Enaibre
Published: January 2024

The purpose of the study is to examine the revenue growth and association with earnings management practices of firms in Nigeria pre- and post-International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adoption years. The study uses 87 nonfinancial firms over 19 years, nine years pre-IFRS (2003 to 2011), and nine years post-IFRS (2012-2020) for a total of 1566 firm-year observations. The panel regression estimate (fixed effect and random effect) was used to test the association between revenue growth and discretionary accruals, while the paired sample t-test was used to test the effect of IFRS adoption. The finding shows that decreasing growth rates resulted in increasing earnings management practices, probably due to the desire to maintain steady published performance figures in the pre-IFRS era, while decreasing growth rates resulted in income-decreasing earnings management practices in post-IFRS years, a rather surprising result. The finding also suggests that the practice of earnings manipulation is higher post-IFRS, indicating lower earnings quality. While managers engaged in income-increasing earnings management practices pre-IFRS, surprisingly, income-decreasing earnings management practices were detected post-IFRS. The finding deviates from norms and popular assumptions and suggests that the adoption of global standards might not necessarily mean limiting the abilities of managers to manipulate the earnings of companies. While changing standards may affect the nature of earnings manipulation, it is unlikely to prevent or deter the practice in general. The implication is that the application of IFRS will not deter earnings management practices.
Time-series analysis of the health outcomes-financial development nexus: Evidence from South Africa
Authors: Jemiluyi Olufunmilayo Olayemi , Jeke Leward
Published: January 2024

This study contributes to the literature by investigating the health and financial development nexus in South Africa. The ‘health is wealth’ debate was again exemplified by the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, thereby raising awareness of the inescapable links between poor health and diverse threats to global socioeconomic prosperity. Thus, the influencing factors of health have continued to be studied. Accounting for structural breaks, the study estimates annual time series data sourced from the World Development Indicators within the autoregressive distributed lag error correction model (ARDL-ECM). The regression outcomes show that financial development has differential impacts on health outcomes. In particular, financial development proxied by domestic credit to the private sector has a negative effect on life expectancy at birth while reducing child mortality, thereby fostering better child health outcomes. This research engages health policy strategists on the right policy mix to achieve better health outcomes. While the financial development drive is ongoing, efforts should be intensified to improve socioeconomic determinants of health, and policy strategies aimed at solving national priority health challenges should be logically pursued.
The impact of environmental, social, and governance on corporate financial performance: Empirical evidence based on Chinese a-share listed companies
Authors: Yiheng Guo , Kassim Aza Azlina Md , Heng Xu , Kai Zhang
Published: January 2024

This study aims to delve into the influence of ESG performance on the financial outcomes of companies listed on China's A-share market, emphasizing the interplay of ESG's three critical dimensions: environmental, social, and governance performance. Utilizing ESG data from A-share listed companies in China spanning from 2013 to 2022, regression analysis was executed in STATA 17.0. Factors like company size, leverage, growth, age, board size, and ownership concentration were integrated as control variables. The results underscored a positive association between both holistic ESG performance and its individual dimensions (environmental, social, and governance performance) and financial outcomes. Notably, non-state-owned enterprises exhibited a more pronounced positive relationship between ESG performance and financial results than their state-owned counterparts. Drawing from these insights, it's advocated that companies amplify their efforts towards ESG performance enhancement. It further accentuates the need for regulatory bodies to formulate pertinent policies and amplify oversight. Additionally, investors are advised to incorporate ESG performance metrics into their investment decisions, promising not only improved financial standing for corporations but also fostering sustainability and comprehensive growth in the social, environmental, and economic domains.

In achieving its main tasks, the Indonesian Air Force carries out defense diplomacy, which is manifested in various fields of cooperation with the Air Forces of friendly countries. One of the goals is to increase intelligence capabilities. The research problem is that the implementation of defense diplomacy in increasing the Indonesian Air Force's intelligence capabilities has not been optimal. The aim of the research is to analyze the implementation of defense diplomacy carried out by the Indonesian Air Force and the defense diplomacy strategy in increasing the Indonesian Air Force's intelligence capabilities. This research uses a qualitative method with a descriptive design. Data was obtained from predetermined informants and then analyzed using qualitative analysis techniques. The research results illustrate that defense diplomacy has an influence on the strength and capabilities of the Indonesian Air Force, one of which is related to intelligence capabilities. The Indonesian Air Force has implemented defense diplomacy in the form of cooperation with the Air Force of friendly countries in various activities or fields, but it is still limited in the intelligence sector, thus having an impact on the Indonesian Air Force's intelligence capabilities. The defense diplomacy strategy implemented in increasing Indonesian Air Force intelligence includes, among others, through technology transfer agreements for each purchase of defense equipment, increasing the exchange of information and collection techniques, utilizing access to foreign military facilities, increasing the role of the Defense Attache, developing and strengthening agreements with the Air Forces of friendly countries, expanding partnerships in the field of education, through exchange programs and research collaboration. All of these steps are directed at increasing the Indonesian Air Force's intelligence capabilities through a defense diplomacy approach.

Kompetensi keselamatan pasien diukur menggunakan kuesioner evaluasi mandiri kompetensi keselamatan pasien. Analisis regresi multiple dilakukan untuk meneliti hubungan antara budaya keselamatan pasien dengan kompetensi keselamatan pasien. Dari 12 dimensi budaya keselamatan pasien, dimensi “serah terima dan transisi” (nilai p = 0,002) dan dimensi “organisasi belajar – peningkatan berkelanjutan” (nilai p = 0,004) berhubungan secara bermakna dengan kompetensi keselamatan pasien secara keseluruhan. Kedua dimensi “serah terima dan transisi” dan dimensi “organisasi belajar – peningkatan berkelanjutan” juga berhubungan secara bermakna dengan masing-masing komponen sikap (secara berturut-turut nilai p = 0,002 dan p = 0,003), keterampilan (secara berturut-turut nilai p = 0,004 dan p = 0,003), dan pengetahuan (secara berturut-turut nilai p = 0,019 dan p = 0,015) secara terpisah.

Hipertensi merupakan salah satu faktor risiko utama penyakit kardiovaskular dengan tingkat kejadian yang masih tinggi di dunia. Di negara-negara yang sedang berkembang, penyakit tidak menular seperti penyakit jantung, penyakit ginjal, stroke dan diabetes akan segera menggantikan penyakit menular dan malnutrisi sebagai penyebab kematian dan disabilitas. Data surveillans DKI Jakarta tahun 2019 menyebutkan peningkatan penyakit hipertensi dan diabetes di Jakarta masih sangat tinggi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan risiko yang paling signifikan terhadap kejadian hipertensi pada lansia. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian observasional analitik dengan metode penelitian kasus kontrol. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan cara cluster random sampling, dengan jumlah sampel 91 kasus dan 91 kontrol pada kelompok lansia yang berusia ≥ 60 tahun. Data dianalisis dengan uji Chi-Square dan uji regresi logistik ganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa faktor depresi (nilai p = 0,0001; OR = 33,341), pendidikan (nilai p = 0,0001; OR = 6,276), dukungan keluarga (nilai p = 0,035; OR = 3,457), obesitas (nilai p = 0,028; OR = 0,321), riwayat keluarga (nilai p = 0,444; OR = 0,305), mengonsumsi makanan asin (nilai p = 0,002; OR = 0,195) berhubungan dengan kejadian hipertensi pada lansia. Kejadian hipertensi pada lansia di Jakarta beresiko lebih tinggi pada lansia dengan depresi, pendidikan rendah, dan kurangnya dukungan dalam keluarga, namun cenderung beresiko lebih rendah pada lansia dengan obesitas, riwayat keluarga hipertensi, dan kebiasan mengonsumsi makanan asin.
