Authors: Moray Rashmy , Pabalkar Vanishree , Buch Nema
Published: December 2021

The objective of this study is to identify the demographic factors and behavioural biases affecting the financial planning of the Millennials. For this purpose the investing behaviour of the Millennials in the IT Industry as a representative sample with respect to retirement planning has been studied using the Retirement Wellness Score. Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the likelihood of whether the Millennials are ready for retirement with the main aim of showing the relationship between the study variables. An attempt has been made to develop a predictive model that would help in determining the Millennials’ readiness for retirement given their demographic variables and dominant bias presence. This research contributes to developing an understanding of Millennials’ financial planning for retirement.
Can Insider Status Promote Employee Voice Behavior?
Authors: Kumar Shalendra S , Jeon Donghwa , Lingam Shiu , Chand Avenesh Pritam , Ku Bonwoo
Published: December 2021

This research investigates employee voice behavior (EVB) as a behavioral consequence of perceived insider status (PIS) through felt obligation behavior. Based on social identity theory, this research postulates that when employees realize that they are an insider, they tend to see themselves as a citizen of an organization and proactively engage in voice behavior. In order to evaluate this relationship, we collected 983 self-completed surveys from participants of public organizations in Fiji. The findings show that as insiders, employees unbegrudgingly engage in voice behavior when trying to provide corrective changes. This relationship was also partially mediated by felt obligation behavior (FOB). Interestingly, this study is the first one to use social identity theory to explain how employees form close attachment to the organizations they work for, driving greater feelings of belongingness and altering their behavior to engage in voice behavior. Therefore, we find social identity theory to be very relevant in explaining the relationship between PIS and EVB through FOB. This makes a significant contribution to the social identity theory. Finally, the current study offers practical implications, limitations, and further research directions.

New data on the boundaries of the distribution range of the Lindholm rock lizard (Darevskia lindholmi), an endemic of the Crimean Peninsula, are presented. This petrophilous lizard inhabit a wide range of biotopes in various landscape levels of the Mountainous Crimea. The upper boundary of D. lindholmi distribution in the southwest of the Main Range of the Crimean Mountains reaches an elevation of 1,520 m a.s.l. (Ai-Petrinskaya Yayla, KemalEgerek Mountain), while on the other high uplands with altitudes above 1.5 km and colder climate (Babugan and Chatyrdag), the species was traced only up to 1,250–1,320 m a.s.l. The northern border of D. lindholmi range in the western part of the Crimean Mountains runs along the Outer Foothill Range (the right bank of the Alma River), while in the eastern part it corresponds the northernmost rocky massifs of the Inner Foothill Range to the north of 45º N latitude. Isolated marginal populations found in the forest-steppe or phrygana-steppe landscapes of the Foothills and arid Southeastern Coast differs significantly in their distance from the main habitat of the species, lizards’ abundance and density. A hypothetical history of the formation of the current range of the Lindholm lizard is discussed.

More than an Activist: Identity Competition and Participation in a Revolutionary Socialist Organization
Authors: Hardnack Chris
Published: December 2021

How do activists manage life commitments and membership in a radical social movement organization? Starting with the assumption that activists are ‘more than activists’ who have personal lives that can affect their movement lives, I use identity theory to analyze how competition among identities influences participation in the organization to which they belong. I also assess how the collective identity of a revolutionary socialist organization affects the personal identities of activists. This movement identity is labeled ‘socialist identity’ which must then compete with other identities that the activist may possess. The methods used were modified life history interviews of former and current members, participant observations, and content analysis of the organization’s documents.
“Keeping up with the Joneses.” A sociological content analysis of advertising catalogues with the eye-tracking method
Authors: Isański Jakub , Leszkowicz Mateusz
Published: December 2021

Is it possible to look at something without actually noticing it? Is it possible to see something in the picture that is not really there? The answers to these philosophical questions can be obtained by comparing the results of eye-tracking tests combined with interviews based on sociological theories. The answers, however, have more than the philosophical dimension in that they can provide insight into everyday processes of social perception and its application, also for commercial purposes. In the design phase of the present study, we chose a popular advertising folder available for free for the average consumer. While showing the selected photographs to the respondents (all the pictures included people portrayed during everyday activities), we asked them to pay particular attention to the situations presented. Afterwards, each participant took part in a standardised interview. In our view, the conclusions formulated on the basis of the obtained results are relevant not only to the investigated catalogue, but can also be treated as an indicator of how people usually browse through advertisements and what kind of inferences they make about the world on that basis. While most attention should be given to watching the advertisements, we constitute our dreams of a perfect life, environment and the items that furnish it.
Curiosity and Serendipity in Qualitative Research
Authors: Åkerström Malin
Published: December 2021

This presentation argues that we seldom speak of our findings in qualitative research as serendipitous, although we have splendid possibilities to make surprising findings. In order to enhance the chances and sharpen our analyses we have to read broadly but also pay attention to details in our data. We should avoid societal or scholarly conventionality, even be disobedient to recommendations, if this blinds us to new meanings of our findings. The value of serendipitous findings lies in the fact that they diverge from conventionally held knowledge. Thus, we have to retain our curiosity, with the “strange intoxication” or passion that Ma XWeber wrote about in Science as Vocation.
Qualitative Research and Aging in Context: Implications to Social Study in China
Authors: Chen Sheying
Published: December 2021

This article begins with a review of methods that gerontologists use in social and behavioral research. The value and focus of qualitative research are highlighted with their epistemological roots. Qualitative approaches and their uses are summarized in terms of “interpretive” and “critical” social sciences that draw the insights of sociological paradigms. With a further review of qualitative research on aging and gerontological studies in China, the article focuses on an integrated micro-macro model by illuminating the ideas of clinical sociology and the general public policy framework of an “economic state in transition.” Implications to social policy study (particularly on aging in China) are discussed.
Comparative Aging and Qualitative Theorizing
Authors: Cook Ian G. , Halsall Jamie , Powell Jason L.
Published: December 2021

The principal aim of this argument is to analyze the swift expansion in the proportion of older people across the globe, and to highlight the main social and economic forces causing this through methodological challenges especially through the lens of qualitative methodology. We recognize the enormity of the task. Drawing from a range of qualitative research studies provides enriched meanings about aging identity that can be used to shed light on how aging is experienced in equal to how it has been defined in macro or populational terms. Balancing micro and macro levels of understanding is key to open up broader level of explaining what it means to be an older person in different cultures Whilst this is a noble aim, there is no doubt that the rapid increase in population aging across the globe is signalling the most astonishing populational changes in the history of humankind that qualitative levels of understanding are uniquely placed to balance the huge figures in describing complex demography in that qualitative methodology unravels the facts and instead reveals the narratives, meanings and identity formation of research subjects; whereas statistical research has pre-dominantly made its findings looking at people as research objects or as a ‘number’ (Gruber and Wise 2004). The balance is key but this paper explores the issue of comparative aging underpinned by what Powell and Cook (2001) call ‘qualitative theorising’ in making sense of statistical and experiential aging.
Religion, Platonist Dialectics, and Pragmatist Analysis: Marcus Tullius Cicero’s Contributions to the Philosophy and Sociology of Divine and Human Knowing
Authors: Prus Robert
Published: December 2021

Whereas Socrates, Plato, Aristotle and Augustine are probably the best known of the early Western philosophers of religion, Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BCE) also played a particularly consequential role in the development and continuity of Greco-Latin-European social thought. Cicero may be best known for his work on rhetoric and his involvements in the political intrigues of Rome, but Cicero’s comparative examinations of the Greco-Roman philosophies of his day merit much more attention than they have received from contemporary scholars. Cicero’s considerations of philosophy encompass much more than the theological issues considered in this statement, but, in the process of engaging Epicurean and Stoic thought from an Academician (Platonist) perspective, Cicero significantly extends the remarkable insights provided by Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle. Although especially central to the present analysis, Cicero’s On the Nature of the Gods (1972) is only one of several texts that Cicero directs to a comparative (multiparadigmatic and transhistorical) analysis of divine and human knowing. Much of Cicero’s treatment of the philosophy of religion revolves around variants of the Socratic standpoints (i.e., dialectics, theology, moralism) that characterized the philosophies of Cicero’s era (i.e., Stoicism, Epicureanism, Academician dialectics), but Cicero also engages the matters of human knowing and acting in what may be envisioned as more distinctively pragmatist sociological terms. As well, although Cicero’s materials reflect the socio-historical context in which he worked, his detailed analysis of religion represents a valuable source of comparison with present day viewpoints and practices. Likewise, a closer examination of Cicero’s texts indicates that many of the issues of divine and human knowing, with which he explicitly grapples, have maintained an enduring conceptual currency. This paper concludes with a consideration of the relevance of Cicero’s works for a contemporary pragmatist sociological (symbolic interactionist) approach to the more generic study of human knowing and acting.
Narrating Memory: Weighing up the Testimony
Authors: Coetzee Jan K.
Published: December 2021

Memory is the ability to store, maintain and recall information and experiences. Although predominantly an individual attribute, memory coincides with the life-world, with consciousness and with the ability to define reality – all of which are shared with others. When analysing narratives the sociologist needs to situate individual memory within its broader context. The article follows the argument that individuals acquire their memories within a broader social context. They also recall and localise their memories within a broader social context. This article interprets a remarkable testimony: the story of a former political prisoner who circumcised a large number of young fellow inmates in the notorious prison on Robben Island, South Africa, during the period of Nelson Mandela‟s incarceration. The article relates the narrative in question to the life-world of the narrator and to his experiences whilst serving his 18-year prison sentence. It reflects on the epistemological questions regarding memories. Memory as recollection, as reconstruction of events and information, and as process of re-membering come under the spotlight. Narratives that are often repeated start taking on a life of their own – particularly in the case of trauma memories. When analysing these narratives, the sociologist needs to distinguish between objective markers and subjective interpretation. Memory does not constitute pure recall by the individual. The article illustrates the effect of intersubjective and collective factors on the process of remembering. It calls for a reflexive process to identify, re-interpret and unpack the process of remembering.
​Advances in Breeding of Jackfruit Crop: A Review
Authors: Ramachandra R.K. , . Vishnuvardhana , Fakrudin B. , Reddy B. Anjaneya
Published: December 2021

The improvement of jackfruit is required to make it amenable for intensive cultivation and make it suitable for a variety of value-added products. There is a significant variation for various traits such as plant phenology, leaf shape, leaf size, fruit shape, fruit size, number of fruits per plant, flake colour, number of flakes per fruit etc. The jackfruit crop has long juvenility, high clonal heterozygosity, recalcitrant type of seeds make it difficult to improvement of jackfruit varieties or hybrids, but on the other hand ease of vegetative propagation of hybrids or varieties is advantageous for the jackfruit breeder. The development of jackfruit is again based on the selection of clones especially for small-sized quality fruits, dwarf, less gum type, disease and pest resistance etc. The detailed knowledge on phenology, inheritance pattern and advanced techniques for hybrid/variety development will be useful to overcome the problems of jackfruit breeding viz fruit size, gummier fruits, susceptibility to disease and pests etc. The development of genetic markers has further reduced the uncertainty in the breeding of jackfruit and maintains the hybrid/varietal populations with desirable characteristics.
Effect of Different Dietary Protein Levels on Physio-metabolic Response during Stunting of Milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal, 1775) Reared under Pond Conditions
Authors: Prasad Mamidala Shyam , Ande Muralidhar P. , Syamala Karthireddy , Chadha Narinder Kumar , Sawant Paramita Banerjee , Xavier Biji , Gireesh-Babu P.
Published: December 2021

Background: Stunting is a process of suppressing growth from unfavourable conditions. The protein supplementation during stunting gives scope to maintain the nutrient reserves of fish and its quality. Methods: A feeding trial was conducted for eight months to study the effect of three hetero-nitrogenous diets with 25% (control), 30% (T1) and 35% (T2) crude protein (CP) levels on growth and physio-metabolic responses of Chanos chanos fingerlings during stunting. Milk fish fingerlings with a mean body weight of 11.71±0.18 g were stocked in earthen ponds @ 20 no/m2 in each replicate (n=3) was fed @ 2% biomass throughout the experiment. Result: Fish fed with T1 diet showed better specific growth rate (0.64±0.01% d-1), weight gain percentage (362.56±14.95) and protease activity (7.53±0.25 U/mg protein). Whereas, lower activity was observed for the enzyme assay, namely superoxide dismutase (45.41±2.50 U/min/mg protein), aspartate aminotransferase (34.01±1.88 U/min/mg protein) and alanine aminotransferase (39.64±0.64 U/min/mg protein). Hence, it may be concluded that the dietary protein inclusion level of 30% CP showed better growth performance and lower physio-metabolic response in milkfish fingerlings during the stunting.

Published: December 2021

Combining ability analysis for yield and yield components of mungbean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] was attempted using an 8 x 8 diallel mating system both in F1 and F2 generations. Both gca and sca mean squares were significant for all the eleven characters in F1 and F2 generations, former being more pronounced for clusters per plant, pods per cluster, pods per plant, pod length, seeds per pod, 100-seed weight and seed yield per plant in F1 and for all the characters except days to maturity, seeds per pod and 100-seed weight in F2. The parent K 851 was a good general combiner for seed yield per plant, days to maturity, plant height, primary branches per plant, clusters per plant, pods per plant and seeds per pod in both generations, while Pant-M 4 was good general combiner for seed yield per plant, plant height, pods per cluster and pods per plant over generations. Parents RMG 62 and Asha were the best combiners for early flowering. GM 4 had good general combining ability for seed yield in F1, but for pod length and 100-seed weight in F1 and F2. The crosses showing high sca effects for seed yield also had significant and positive effects for at least two important yield components.

In-group and Out-group: Dynamics of the «Russia – West» Social Distance Online and Offline
Authors: Sikevich Zinaida , Fedorova Anna
Published: December 2021

The article reveals a theoretical and empirical study of the social distance symbolic scale expressing “in-group” – “out-group” perceptions, expressed in the oppositions “Russia” – “West”, “Russian men – Western men”. According to our observations, the opposition has a negative connotation, which is expressed in a system of geopolitical and mental biases. Through systematic analysis of the geopolitical and mental distancing phenomenon, a complementary system for evaluating individual and collective representations of Russian-speaking respondents in real and virtual spaces is proposed. The authors conducted a controlled Internet survey of 600 people based on a quota sample by gender, age, and level of education; the structure of the sample allowed for a comparative study in the form of a nonreactive study within10 largest ethnic Russian communities of the social network “VKontakte”. As a result of a comprehensive study, it is established, in particular, that the opposition “Russia – West” is unchanged in the historical perspective from 1995 to 2020 and shows negative dynamics, over time acquiring the traits of an increasingly tough confrontation. Economic perceptions of the West’s attitude towards Russia are replaced mainly by the geopolitical perception of relations, due to the dominant “power” attitudes of the survey participants. As it turned out on an empirical level, the system of traditional values inherent in Russian society is opposed to Western postmodern values, and the image of the state at the level of value representations directly correlates with the image of the people, whose perception, along with geopolitics, is influenced by various cultural norms that distinguish Russians from Europeans. The gender and age characteristics of the survey participants determine the content of the answers to a minimal extent, which indirectly indicates the integrity of the image of the West at the level of the national identity of Russians.
Searching of the Source of Educational Inequality
Authors: Konstantinovskiy David
Published: December 2021

Various approaches to investigating the sources of inequality in education are discussed in the paper. It is noted that data on the representation of students from families with various parental status at levels of education do not give a full picture of what is happening. Full-fledged interpretation requires to turn to a much larger amount of information, primarily because an influence of the family and the environment during the period of primary socialization is of decisive importance for the formation of chances in the educational sphere. The social experience of the family, the models of social behavior based on it, the developed cultural patterns, strategies, and tactics are important. At the same time, the orientations towards education are not fixed once and for all; they can be transformed if the general situation changes (for example, economic) or a directed influence is made (for example, pedagogical). The formed orientations are, as it were, a starting position and later sets the direction and speed of possible reflection on certain influences. The pandemic and the resulting intensification of distance learning have sharply increased the importance of motivation and other students’ qualities, formed during the period of primary socialization: they are critical for academic success. The accompanying growth of inequality in education has actualized the search for its sources to find means to overcome or at least reduce it. Equalization of opportunities for young people from all social groups is especially important for the growth of human potential.
Factors affecting activities to prevent and suppress ethnic conflicts in the Russian Federation
Authors: Naydenko Vitaly N.
Published: December 2021

The article analyses the activities to prevent and suppress ethnic conflicts, activities that form a major component of the national security system of the Russian Federation against extremist, including terrorist, threats. The article examines the features and the degree of influence of the main factors on the activities of state structures, religious organisations, public associations for the prevention and suppression of interethnic conflicts. The survey of twenty experts who are highly qualified specialists in the field of countering ethno-extremism conducted by the author using the methods of questionnaires and in-depth interviews, as well as the results of mass sociological studies and analysis of scientific works and media publications on the topic of the research allowed to determine the degree of influence of the main factors on the ethno-conflict sphere. It was revealed as a result of the research, that the Russian Orthodox Church, traditional Muslim organisations and public law enforcement organisations, primarily Cossack organisations and voluntary people's guards, have the most positive influence on activities to prevent and suppress ethnic conflicts.

The factor of "spreading the ideology of the" Russian world "" in the context of aggravated relations with Western countries has practically no effect on anti-conflict activities in the ethno-national sphere. Attempts to support foreign followers of the Russian patriotic project evoke nothing more but Russophobic reaction from the political elites in a number of foreign states.

Such factors as “deficiencies in educational and upbringing activities”, as well as “pandemic”, have a negative impact on the activities aimed at preventing and suppressing ethnic conflicts in Russia. The worst influence on the prevention and suppression of ethnic conflicts, according to the experts interviewed, have “activities of elites in national formations”, “migration policy”, as well as “development of Internet communications and social networks”. The author proves that taking into account the peculiarities and degree of influence of the main factors on activities to prevent and suppress ethnic conflicts will not only allow the authorities to ensure the protection of the Russian society from ethno-national threats but also to more effectively solve important tasks of strengthening the all-Russian self-awareness and spiritual community of the Russian nation, harmonising ethno-national relations and state-civil consolidation in the Russian Federation.
Values of modern Russian students in the context of the transformation of the higher education system
Authors: Garmonova Anna V. , Shcheglova Daria V. , Iumanova Irina F. , Opfer Evgeniya A.
Published: December 2021

The article is dedicated to the assessment of the correlation between the values of self-expression and survival among modern Russian students. The relevance of this topic is determined by the need to understand how to change the higher education system so that it correlates with the values of modern students and applicants, meets their expectations and needs. The article examines two aspects of the transformation of higher education: the institutional limitations of the modernisation of higher education and the value orientations of modern Russian students. Value orientations were operationalised using the approach of R. Inglehart and K. Welzel, based on the dichotomy of values of self-expression and survival, and institutional conditions - through the reproduction by the higher education system of the institutional trap “path-dependence”, to overcome which "critical mass" of subjects with dominant values of self-expression is required. The main research question was whether Russian bachelors have developed values of self-expression. The empirical basis of the study was the data of a mass survey of Russian students of 19 universities within the framework of the project "The Birth of a Russian Master's Degree" with the support of the Vladimir Potanin Charitable Foundation.

The research toolkit included a number of categories reflecting the meanings that students use when analysing the reasons for choosing a university, the direction of training and learning outcomes. One of these categories is the category of choice (of the university and field of study). The data obtained indicate that when answering the question about the reasons for choosing a university and the direction of study, there are, on average, two and a half times more students who chose the values of self-expression than those who are clearly focused on the values of survival. This suggests that, firstly, the importance of the values of emancipation (freedom of choice and development) in higher education is growing. Secondly, the potential for changes at the value level is accumulated in groups of students with different cultural capital - that is, we can talk about universal tendencies among the entire studied group. Thirdly, the choice of the direction of study turned out to be a more significant factor in the distribution of values than the choice of a university, that is, the motives for choosing a student are biased towards the content of their professional education in the first place, and the prestige of the university in the second place. Based on their analysis of the collected data, the authors come to the conclusion that modern Russian students are ready for meaningful changes in higher education. The only question is what answer to expect from the system.
Development of voluntary marriage principle in Russian family law
Authors: Ivanova Nelli A , Guruleva Elvira A.
Published: December 2021

We consider the issues of origin and development of voluntary marriage principle, which is the basis of legal regulation of family relations in modern Russia. The purpose of the study is to examine the features of development of voluntary marriage principle of in Russian law. We use general scientific methods (dialectical, logical, systematic), private scientific methods (historical, statistical, sociological), as well as special legal (comparative legal, formal legal). We note that the voluntary nature of the marriage union is revealed through the freedom of marriage and freedom of its dissolution. The following stages are distinguished in the development of voluntariness principle: the pre-Christian period, the period after adoption of Christianity before the reign of Peter I, the period of empire, the Soviet and post-Soviet periods. We conclude that the development of voluntary condition was consistent and corresponded to the democratization of society. We note that the definition of the boundaries of the freedom of divorce in domestic law was of a fluctuating nature: from the tightening of divorce to its liberalization. We draw attention to the fact that the issue of divorce freedom legal regulation is to find the most optimal balance of the personal interests of spouses who are dissolving their marriage, their children, as well as society and the state.
Negative admissibility of evidence in public law litigation: reflections on the exercise of public authorities’ power in relation to the proof process
Authors: Abushenko Dmitry B.
Published: December 2021

We consider the issues of the implementation of certain public authorities in relation to a future judicial dispute. We define the boundaries of use of additional evidentiary tools through the prism of the powers vested in other (non-parties in a particular court case) public entities. We substantiate the applicability of the general rule on negative admissibility, we highlight special cases when evidence previously obtained by an authority that does not have the status of a person participating in the case could still be submitted to a court case initiated on a dispute involving a public authority. The general logic of the proposed approach can be applied both to a procedural private opponent when he received “reinforcement” due to the actions of another authority, and can also be used for private law disputes. We conclude that the absence in the current Russian legislation of any norms that build in-tersectoral relations with regard to the institution of negative admissibility of evidence obtained by other authorities not only generates contradictions in judicial practice, but also in a certain sense discredits the adversarial judicial procedure itself and discourages public authorities, which begin to operate with special tools to combat socially dangerous acts in “ordinary” court cases.

Resultados: A busca identificou inicialmente 34 artigos, sendo considerados 12 artigos para a revisão. Conclusão: O transtorno do espectro autista gera diversas dificuldades práticas para a aplicação de anestesias utilizadas numa ampla gama de procedimentos médicos e que, inclusive, criam a necessidade de sedação. Procedimentos pré-operatórios, como a contenção física e a aplicação forçada de ansiolíticos para facilitar aplicações anestésicas, já não são mais eticamente bem vistos, devendo ser utilizados apenas em último caso. Muitos dos trabalhos citam que uma interação maior com os pais ou cuidadores sobre as especificidades mentais de cada paciente geram bons resultados. Além disso, o treinamento de profissionais da saúde sobre o autismo e seus desdobramentos comportamentais são de extrema necessidade para que as anestesias, procedimentos cirúrgicos e exames obtenham o sucesso desejado.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of the antioxidant potential of Arrabideae chica (crajiru) extract on oxidative stress in diabetic rats. Methods: Adult Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus), weighing 238±12g were divided into three groups of six rats each: CN normal untreated control; DIAB+NS diabetic rats treated with normal saline; and diabetic rats treated with crajiru extract, DIAB+CR. The CN and DIAB+NS groups (control groups) received normal saline solution (NS) orally (gavage); rats in the DIAB+CR group received crajiru extract (300 mg/kg) once a day by gavage for 6 weeks. Measurements of urea and creatinine in serum, and kidney tissue catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) were performed. The variables were assessed using the Tukey test, significance p<0.05. Results: All animals survived the experiments. In the CN group, compared with the DIAB+NS group, there was significant difference between the levels of glycemia on the second day of dosing and on the 10th day (p<0.05). No difference was observed on glycemia comparing the 2th and 10th day on the rats of group C+NS (p>0.05). Diabetic animals from DIAB+CR group had a significant reduction in glycemia on 10th day of treatment, comparing the 2nd day (p<0.05). There was a significant reduction in glycemia in the DIAB+CR group, comparing with the DIAB+NS group (p<0.05). There was an increase in urea and creatinine levels in rats DIAB+SN when compared to controls, C+SN (p<0.001). Rats from the DIAB+CR group had a significant reduction in urea and creatinine, compared to the DIAB+NS group (p<0.001). There were no significant differences in urea and creatinine comparing the C+NS and DIAB+CR groups. The rats from the DIAB+NS group had significantly lower levels of CAT, GSH-px and SOD when compared to the normal control rats (p<0.001). In animals from the DIAB+SN group, the levels of these antioxidant enzymes were significantly reduced (p<0.001). The treatment of diabetics with crajiru extract caused a significant increase (p<0.001) in the levels of CAT, GSH-px and SOD, when compared to rats in the BIAB+SN group. Conclusion: The data of the present study confirms that the crajiru extract positively influenced the control of hyperglycemia in diabetic rats. More research is needed to provide a better understanding of the mechanisms of diabetes treatment using crajiru extract and its flavonoids.

Epidemiological investigations as part of the malaria surveillance system in Indonesia are carried out through the 1-2-5 method. Assessing the 1-2-5 strategy compliance level at the district level is the first step towards determining whether the surveillance and response strategy is working as planned or not. This study was conducted in order to determine whether PE 1-2-5 had been implemented in health centers (puskesmas) in malaria receptive areas according to the technical guidelines issued by the Indonesian Ministry of Health. Health centers were determined through purposive sampling technique. The sampling is determined by selecting health centers that have been doing malaria vector control service in 2018 and 2019. Ten Puskesmas in malaria receptive areas in Sukabumi District were selected. The informants in this study were the key players in the malaria program at the health centers: the head of the health centers, the manager of the malaria program, and the village malaria officer (JMD) who were involved in the vector control process in 2018 and 2019 at the selected health centers. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews done by researcher with informants. The interview showed that the malaria program personnel in Sukabumi are doing the strategy as best as possible in order to achieve malaria elimination. 1-2-5 surveillance program in Sukabumi district has been implemented even though the implementation is not as ideal as the technical guidelines suggested by the Indonesian Ministry of Health, Sukabumi district still applied the strategy based on it by adjusting various aspects (resource situation and the availability of facilities) to the suitable condition in Sukabumi.
