Creating Lasting Legacies and Strategising Development through a Cultural Festival in Bario, the Historical “World Within”
Authors: Gala Gerawat , Lian Doris , Raja Lilla
Published: November 2024

The manuscript explores a twin strategy adopted by the isolated Kelabit community of Bario in Sarawak Borneo to create legacies and bring development to the highlands through a festival organised by the Rurum Kelabit Sarawak (RKS @ The Sarawak Kelabit Association). Bario’s location in the Sarawak’s mountainous terrain of Borneo isolates it from the development hub. However, the rich culture of the Kelabit and the natural assets of the highlands attract tourists despite the limited access. Over the years, tourism has overtaken agriculture to become the mainstay of the economy. The Kelabit community in Bario has increasingly incorporated events and a local festival into the highland’s destination tourism strategy. This article focuses on the Bario Food and Cultural Festival (BFCF). It delves into how the event is more than cultural, conservation-focused, and tourism-oriented, referred to as communicated strategy based on the published objectives. Beyond the published objectives, there is an underlying and tacit but legitimate strategy to raise Bario's profile, improve the quality of life, and attract government and private sector support and funding, which is crucial for Bario’s development. The double strategy is suitable for many remote rural areas that are cut off from the development hub and could be adopted by other remote communities with natural, cultural and people assets.

Everything is media: A new approach to media and storytelling in the new digital era
Authors: Weinpress Alon
Published: November 2024

In today’s digital age, where consumers are bombarded with messages and have short attention spans, brands face the challenge of standing out. This paper proposes a paradigm shift for brands: viewing every interaction as a potential media opportunity. Drawing from case studies like Nike, Stella Artois and Glassdoor, it illustrates how brands can leverage routine interactions with their target audiences to craft compelling narratives, adapting to evolving consumer expectations. This paper suggests a practical model for identifying and maximising these media touchpoints, emphasising the importance of storytelling and authenticity. As technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) continue to evolve, the role of branding and marketing is poised for transformation, with new possibilities emerging to engage audiences in innovative ways.

Authors: Merto Anna Carla , Ybañez Romario
Published: November 2024

This study investigated the ever-changing domain of innovation strategies and obstacles encountered by medium and large enterprises in Dumaguete City, Negros Oriental. Additionally, it put forth practical suggestions for higher education institutions (HEIs) to better align graduate education with the market's requirements. Surveys and interviews were used to meticulously collect data from 150 establishments using a comprehensive mixed-methods approach. Important insights were extracted through statistical analyses, such as frequency distribution and Pearson's correlation coefficient. The results indicated that the business environment was complex and varied, with organizations placing a high value on technological progress and product innovation while facing significant obstacles, including employee opposition, insufficient support from leadership, competitive forces, and regulatory intricacies. In order to tackle these challenges, the study proposed the implementation of capacity-building initiatives for decision-makers, targeted innovation support, the promotion of synergistic collaborations between academia and industry, and advocacy for policy frameworks that are conducive to progress. A comprehensive remedial strategy outlines pragmatic measures that local enterprises can undertake to strengthen their innovative capabilities; it emphasizes collaborative support networks, advocacy endeavors, and robust monitoring systems. This study made a substantial scholarly contribution to innovation management and business strategies, with significant implications for economic progress and the improvement of graduate education. When viewed through the lens of NOCCI, innovation becomes a critical factor in promoting entrepreneurial development and stimulating economic vitality in Negros Oriental. The proactive efforts undertaken by NOCCI to foster an innovative ecosystem via service provision, investment facilitation, collaborative ventures, and advocacy campaigns underscore the organization's dedication to promoting sustainable business growth and prosperity within the local community.
The Influence of Socialist Realism on the Writings Folklorists in the Mid-20th-Century. Case Study: Mariana Kahane
Authors:   Constantin Brăiloiu Institute of Ethnography and Folklore, Bucharest, Gheorghe Lavinia
Published: November 2024

This paper presents a case from the Institute of Folklore in Bucharest in the early 1950s, when a state directive had to produce a work presenting the “new genre” that emerged in traditional music after 1944. The task fell to folklorists Mariana Kahane and Paula Carp. In the Archive of the Constantin Brăiloiu Institute of Ethnography and Folklore I found the volume written by the two (which was never published), titled Contribuții la studierea noii creații de cântece populare din R.P.R. [Contributions to the Study of the New Creation of Folk Songs from the R.P.R.], in which information captured in a research in the village of Bătrâni, Prahova county, carried out in several stages was reproduced.
Finally, the paper will concern two other documents found in the above-mentioned archive, showing different versions of a study written by Mariana Kahane in 1956 and 1957. While in the first, written for the West, the author overlooks the ideas imposed by the politics of the time, in the second, written for Moscow, she takes up again the notions she had launched two years before, with Paula Carp. The two studies thus show the different ways in which the author treats the subject, influenced by their intended audience: Western versus Soviet.

This study assessed the innovation capability of artisanal fabricators of oil palm fruit processing machines in Nigeria with a view to developing policy mechanisms that will improve the quality of machines produced in the sector. The study was conducted in six States in Nigeria based on oil palm fruits production propensity. They are; Osun, Ondo, Kogi, Edo, Akwa-Ibom, and, Imo. Using appropriate research methods, the study revealed that the fabricators agreed (on a five-point Likert scale) that number of years spent learning machine fabrication (mean rating 4.3) and availability of training opportunities for fabricators (4.01) influenced the innovation capability of the artisans. The respondents also agreed that technical education (3.70), conducive and safe working environment (4.10), state of equipment and tools (4.4) and access to machine fabrication information (3.67) were other factors that enhanced innovation capability of the artisans. The respondents however, strongly agreed (4.5) that the availability of newly developed fabrication technology in the industry influenced innovation capability. The study concluded that attention should be given to enhanced technical training of the artisans and that efforts should be made to equip them with the latest and modern methods of fabrication. This may bring about standardization of the machines fabricated in the sector.

Traditional Knowledge Digital Library as Patent System Facilitator
Authors: Yadav Alok Kumar , Vibha
Published: November 2024

The concept of the Traditional Knowledge Digital Library (TKDL) first emerged in India two decades ago. It upholds the current Indian patent law, which forbids the filing of patents based on traditional knowledge that is already in the public domain. Although, TKDL has been quite helpful in preserving traditional knowledge, it can be improved to maximize its potential. With tech advancements, it’s necessary to ensure that traditional knowledge is secured to facilitate the Intellectual Property regime, and prevent the exploitation of local customary knowledge. The primary issue concerning the current operational model is financial in nature. Many advocates strongly contend that access to the TKDL should be facilitated through commercialization. It is essential to grant access to the database to third parties to enhance awareness and promote indigenous knowledge systems. Allowing third-party access is therefore significantly beneficial from a financial perspective. In this regard, we have proposed the establishment of a TKDL fund, aimed at supporting various indigenous communities. This fund would generate financial returns from granting access, which would be distributed among indigenous communities and subsequently utilized for their development, thereby acknowledging their contributions in the realm of traditional knowledge.

European Strategic Culture in the Citizens' Eyes
Authors: Paile-Calvo Sylvain
Published: November 2024

Numerous examples of the use of the term "strategic culture" applied to the European Union can be found in the scientific literature or in political statements. The High Representative and Vice-President of the European Commission himself, Josep Borrell, has stressed the need for the EU to have a "shared strategic culture and empathy". However, this quote is more of a political ambition than an objective reality. Similarly, it is often argued that the EU does not have its own strategic culture, but that only its Member States have one. This contribution proposes to explore the meaning of this term and its reality in the context of the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP). If the construction or development of such a common strategic culture in Europe is defined as a clear political objective, it seems obvious to all that it can only be built through collective and convergent actions of all CSDP actors in the Union.

Problems that often occur in marriage are legal consequences that arise when a divorce is carried out in court. It will be a problem if in marriage there is no gono-gini and leave debt by using collateral from the wife's innate property. To provide justice and legal certainty to these problems, the judge must be careful and wise. The type of research used in this research is normative legal research. The technique of collecting legal materials used by the author in this research is library research. This study uses a stattue approach, and a conceptual approach. If the wife's property is used as a guarantee for paying off debt on behalf of the wife, then the guarantee remains the wife's innate property and the wife is fully entitled to take legal actions on her property. In the event that there is a debt during the marriage, the husband is fully responsible for the settlement of joint debts made by the wife, except for this responsibility, namely the settlement of debts made before the marriage by the wife, which responsibility ends with the implementation of the division and separation of mixed assets.
PENGATURAN PEMBERIAN HAK REMISI BAGI NARAPIDANA DI INDONESIA, STUDI KOMPARASI DENGAN BEBERAPA NEGARA LAIN DI DUNIA
Authors: Nugraha Bimasakti R. Aditayoga
Published: November 2024

The regulation of remission rights for prisoners in Indonesia refers to The Republic of Indonesia Law No. 12 of 1995 about Corrections and their derivative regulations, namely The Government of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation No. 99 of 2012 about The Second Amendment to The Republic of Indonesia Government Regulation No. 32 of 1999 about the Terms and Procedures for the Implementation of the Rights of Correctional Inmates and The Decree of the President of the Republic of Indonesia No. 174 of 1999 about Remissions. In these provisions, it regulates general conditions for prisoners to obtain remission rights and special conditions in certain criminal acts for prisoners to obtain remission. This then raises the pros and cons of tightening the granting of remission rights for convicts of certain crimes in Indonesia. If this is compared with several other countries in the world, it can be concluded that there are countries that also regulate tightening in the granting of remission rights for prisoners, while those that provide remissions equally regardless of the type of crime committed by the inmates, depending on the policies of each country. Therefore, Indonesia should in drafting provisions regarding tightening the granting of remission rights for inmates must carefully consider the reasons for the pros and cons that occurred, so that the rules created do not cause continuous polemics. This writing aims to provide new contributions to science to be published using normative research methods.
EKSISTENSI DAN PROSES PERADILAN HAM DI INDONESIA
Authors: Santoso I Wayan
Published: November 2024

The development of the influence of human rights in its journey has affected various countries, including Indonesia. The end of the New Order government, which was very repressive after 32 years in power, has raised awareness of the importance of respecting human rights. Demands for justice against past human rights violators are increasing, while human rights violations continue to take place in various forms, patterns and different actors. Human rights issues are often used by a group of people for their political and economic interests, while officials are reluctant to act for fear of being accused of violating human rights.
The understanding of human rights in Indonesia as values, concepts and norms that live and develop in society can be traced through a study of years, and before the human rights court was formed, cases of gross human rights violations were tried by an authorized general court. The establishment of legal regulations regarding gross human rights violations and the establishment of a human rights court is necessary because the applicable legal regulations, most of which are rules from the Dutch colonial era, such as the Criminal Code, do not regulate gross human rights violations as extraordinary crimes. but only regulates conventional crimes, such as murder as regulated in Article 338 of the Criminal Code, persecution as regulated in Article 351 of the Criminal Code.
Kidnapping as regulated in Article 333 of the Criminal Code, rape as regulated in Article 285 of the Criminal Code, etc. So in this case, of course, there is a difference between the prosecution process in criminal law and the prosecution process in cases of gross human rights violations. In order to provide protection, certainty, justice and a feeling of security to individuals or the community, it is necessary to establish a Human Rights Court and the rule of law. In Indonesia, the existence of Law Number 39 of 1999 concerning Human Rights (UU HAM) and Law Number 26 of 2000 concerning the Human Rights Court (Law on the Human Rights Court) is expected to protect human rights, both individuals and communities and become the basis for enforcing , legal certainty, justice and a feeling of security for individuals and the community against serious human rights violations

GOVERNMENT RESPONSE: REVIEW OF RESEARCH IN CHINA AND PRACTICE IN INDONESIA
Authors: Judi Tjatur Ermitajani
Published: November 2024

Studies in China and Indonesia have not explained how the actual practice of government response is based on factual observations. Based on the conceptual findings of research in China, this study elaborates on the practice of government response as a process in Indonesia. Research takes the object of research as the object of observation. Researchers review research achievements in China and intuitively observe practices in Indonesia. The results of the review and observation of government response research as a process show that almost all concepts, models and types of government responses in China are practiced by the Indonesian government. Studies in China and practice in Indonesia, following the perspective of governance, government-citizen interaction, response attitude, and the manner and content of government responses. Based on a study in China, which is very rich in concepts, the Indonesian government's response appears to be more chronological, careful, flexible, and considerate. Scholars in both countries can learn from and draw on experiences for further studies that are useful in the construction of respondent government models, as well as provide useful empirical examples for improving government response capacity.

The Perinatal asphyxia remnants the critical condition connected with the important morbidity and mortality in the infants, particularly in the resource-limited settings. So, this cross-sectional study aimed to consider prevalence of the serum electrolyte confusions in the term infants diagnosed with the perinatal asphyxia acknowledged to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit the (NICU) at Bacha Khan Medical Complex Swabi. The total of 100 term infants with an Apgar score of less than 7 at 5 minutes or the demanding resuscitation at the birth was included. The Electrolyte levels were measured for the sodium, potassium, calcium, and the chloride, and derangements were identified based on the established reference ranges. The Results indicated that 51% of the infants experienced hyponatremia, although 36% had hypokalemia and 35% hypocalcemia. The Statistically significant associations were found between the electrolyte abnormalities and the poorer clinical outcomes, with the infants exhibiting derangements requiring longer the NICU stays (mean 12.5 ± 4.6 days vs. 7.2 ± 3.1 days) and the higher incidence of the ventilatory support needs (35% vs. 10%). So these findings underscore critical importance of early recognition and the management of the electrolyte imbalances in the asphyxiated infants to improve the clinical outcomes and optimize neonatal care practices. For Further research is warranted to explore long-term implications of these disturbances and develop standardized management protocols in the NICUs.
Los orígenes de los anarco-feminismo(s) en España: las propuestas discursivas de Teresa Mañé Miravent (1865-1939)
Authors: Puente Pérez Ginés , Abelló Güell Teresa , García Yeste Carme
Published: November 2024

La figura de Teresa Mañé Miravent (1865-1939) es fundamental para entender el conglomerado político y la construcción del ideario anarquista en el entreacto del siglo XIX y XX. Mediante un análisis discursivo, en este artículo se profundizará en la complejidad del concepto feminismo por parte de las anarquistas. Un concepto y movimiento que, según la historiografía, las anarquistas rechazaron hasta la segunda mitad del siglo xx. En la presente investigación se evidenciará que sí existieron anarquistas que lo apoyaron al menos hasta 1902-1903, momento en el que el feminismo optó internacionalmente por el sufragismo como medio de transformación social.
Violencia vigilantista en el siglo XXI: comparativa internacional de tres estudios de caso ¿Puede el registro escapar al relato?
Authors: Lamela Viera Carmen
Published: November 2024

El artículo explora la violencia colectiva vigilantista en el siglo xxi a través de casos que adquieren gran notoriedad nacional hasta convertirse en noticias internacionales. Se presta especial atención al proceso de definición del suceso y su exposición al gran público a través de imágenes, muchas generadas en tiempo real para ser compartidas en las redes sociales. Al detenernos con mayor detalle en tres casos distintos, se evidencia una complejidad que se resiste a generalizaciones tipológicas, así como la persistencia de una valoración de la barbarie de los linchamientos atribuidos a unos protagonistas distantes y ajenos a la audiencia consumidora de la noticia.

A continuación, acuña una definición de las movilizaciones que jalonaron la formación de juntas de autogobierno como rebeliones constituyentes surgidas de procesos de polemización y deliberación sobre esferas de la vida comunitaria ante situaciones de ausencia de un centro de poder, marcando el paso a la política moderna pero no necesariamente hacia la ciudadanía individual ni tampoco hacia un escenario de continuidades estructurales.
La movilización de las reliquias durante la guerra civil. Historicismo y sacralización en la España franquista
Authors: Rina Simón César
Published: November 2024

La sanción religiosa de la guerra civil en términos de cruzada ha sido profusamente investigada desde el ámbito institucional: cartas pastorales, homilías y apoyo explícito de la jerarquía católica. Sin embargo, en la legitimación sagrada de las tropas sublevadas jugó un papel determinante la movilización de reliquias y la proliferación de una tipología diversa de milagros, apariciones y acontecimientos sobrenaturales que contribuyeron a consolidar, en la experiencia de los combatientes y en la retaguardia, la idea del conflicto como una guerra apocalíptica entre el bien y el mal. Así mismo, la aparición y el culto a las reliquias reforzó la legitimidad sacro-popular de las tropas sublevadas y del nuevo Estado franquista, como fue el caso paradigmático de la mano incorrupta de Santa Teresa de Jesús. En este artículo también desarrollaremos el papel que jugaron las reliquias como continentes de pasado en la construcción de la narrativa de la continuidad histórica de la dictadura y su vinculación con la tradición, elementos puestos en escena en los rituales de la “Victoria”.
Las reliquias de los mártires de la antimafia: entre religión civil e iniciativa eclesiástica (1990-2023)
Authors: Caliò Tommaso
Published: November 2024

El imaginario devocional es parte integrante del universo simbólico de las mafias: no tenemos más que pensar por ejemplo en el papel de los santini (pequeñas imágenes devocionales) en los ritos de adhesión o en la gestión por parte de la criminalidad organizada de los cultos patronales. A partir de los años noventa algunas diócesis del sur de Italia comenzaron a reaccionar a la injerencia de las mafias en la vivencia religiosa promoviendo desde abajo los procesos de beatificación de figuras de mártires, como los sacerdotes don Pino Puglisi y don Peppe Diana o del juez Rosario Livatino, que pagaron con su vida su oposición al poder de Cosa Nostra o de la Camorra. Se trata de propuestas hagiográficas que cumplen diversos cometidos: redefinir el límite entre legalidad o ilegalidad en el seno de una Iglesia tal vez impermeable a la cultura mafiosa; crear un modelo nuevo de cura o laico católico en el intento de sustraer partes del territorio a la influencia de los clanes; insertar a “héroes de la fe” en el más vasto panteón de las víctimas de la mafia. Este artículo se propone analizar los resultados contradictorios del culto a las reliquias dentro del proceso de contaminación entre las formas tradicionales de devoción y la nueva religión civil de la antimafia incluyendo sus aspectos mediáticos y narrativos.
The diagnostic value of fine needle aspiration Cytology in pediatric cervical lymphadenopathy
Authors: Razzaque Sk Md Abdur
Published: November 2024

Abstract: Background: Cervical lymphadenopathy is a common condition in pediatric patients, and early diagnosis is crucial for appropriate treatment. Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) is a valuable diagnostic tool. Objective: This study aimed to assess the accuracy and usefulness of FNAC in diagnosing pediatric cervical lymphadenopathy in patients under 12 years of age. Method: A prospective study was conducted at Sher-E-Bangla Medical College Hospital from November 2022 to February 2024. A total of 45 pediatric patients with cervical lymphadenopathy underwent FNAC followed by lymph node excision biopsy. FNAC results were compared with histopathological findings to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy. Results: Out of 45 patients, FNAC diagnosed 34 (75.55%) reactive hyperplasia, 2 (4.44%) tubercular granuloma, 1 (2.22%) non-tubercular granuloma, 2 (4.44%) pyogenic, 1 (2.22%) Hodgkin’s lymphoma, 3 (6.66%) non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, 1 (2.22%) suspicious of malignancy, and 1 (2.22%) unsatisfactory for malignancy. The histopathological assessment confirmed 1 reactive lymph node as malignant (false negative), with no false positives. The sensitivity for benign conditions was 97.56%, specificity was 100%, positive predictive value was 100%, negative predictive value was 66.66%, and overall diagnostic accuracy was 97.67%. Conclusions: FNAC is a highly accurate and useful tool for diagnosing pediatric cervical lymphadenopathy and should be included in the initial diagnostic process before determining the treatment plan.
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). A case report and review of literature.

Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a disease that produces neural demyelination in the central nervous system caused by reactivation of a DNA virus that remains dormant in immunocompetent individuals, known as John Cunningham virus (JCV) occasioned by a prior HIV infection with immunosuppression. We present the case of a 21 years old HIV positive individual with diffuse muscular weakness, dysarthria and severe ataxia and impossibility of maintaining neck and head upward position. Magnetic resonance imagery revealed in the white substance of bilateral cerebellar hemispheres and brainstem extensive T1 hypointense and T2/FLAIR hyperintense lesions, accompanied by discrete water restriction diffusion of water restriction and insignificant contrast substance outlet. Thus, a PML diagnosis was established on radioimagistic grounds.

Teenagers’ reluctance to learning in general and their demand for non-traditional, interactive leaning methods, on one hand, and the difficulties in changing the oral health-related behaviors, on the other hand, represent a permanent challenge for oral health educators. Experiential learning was developed by David Kolb and promotes the concept of learning by doing, and with better chances for teenagers to get engaged in the educational process using as learning cycle: concrete experience (“Do”), observation and reflection (“Observe”), forming abstract concepts (“Think”), testing in new situation (“Plan”). As part of the “Com4You” oral health promotion program, Department of Oral Heath and Community Dentistry from Faculty of Dentistry, UMF “Carol Davila”, Bucharest, designed educational lessons using experiential learning and applied them in small groups of teenagers in schools. The present article describes the two activities used in Com4You program for promotion of caries-preventive diet for adolescents, that conducted to a decrease in the consumption of cariogenic food compared to control group (traditional learning) as shown by the results of a 2 -year longitudinal study. The activities performed in small groups (5-10 subjects) and with a medium duration of 15 minutes each, aimed to raise the awareness on the proper eating behavior in preventing dental caries and to offer a better understanding of the food products characteristics that makes them cariogenic/caries-protective.

Published: November 2024

Aim and objectives: To improve the quality of life of the tinnitus patients, using an innovative sound amplification algorithm, delivered via hearing aids. Material and methods: Each subject served as his own control. Tinnitus Functional Index (TFI) questionnaire was used for tracking the progress of the therapy. Scores were calculated at the first presentation, 2 weeks, and 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after that. There were 15 adult patients with subjective tinnitus of non-tumoral etiology, 12 with tinnitus and hearing loss and 3 with tinnitus and normal hearing. Results: After 12 months of therapy, a statistically significant decrease in TFI score was observed. The improvement was gradual for most of the patients. Conclusion: The designed prescriptive amplification method is an efficient way of helping patients with disabling tinnitus, regardless of the fact that hearing loss is present or the hearing thresholds are normal.
Correlations between echocardiographic parameters and cardiovascular risk factors for stroke incidence in non-valvular AF

Our retrospective, cross-sectional study was aimed to determine a general profile of non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) ambulatory patients, by identifying echocardiographic parameters and risk factors associated with cardioembolic stroke. 156 patients with previously diagnosed NVAF were selected from an Ambulatory Cardiology Praxis database. We applied the CHA2SDS2_VASC and HASBLED scores and analyzed 3 echocardiographic parameters (LAV, LVEDV and LVEF%), the presence of carotid atheromatosis and coronary artery disease and evaluated the lipidic profile and HbA1c. LAV, LVEDV and LVEF% were associated with cardioembolic stroke in NVAF (especially LVEDV), and also with ischemic heart failure (LAV in particular). Altered lipidic profile, presence of coronary artery disease and diabetes were also important indicators for incident stroke in NVAF. Further large cohort studies are necessary to develop a risk stratification chart for cardioembolic stroke based on these parameters in patients with NVAF.
