Authors: Keisham Priyaluxmi , VJ Mary
Published: March 2024

Menopause is the permanent cessation of menstruation for a complete 12 consecutive months while post-menopause is the period following menopause marked by changes in hormonal status. Studies stated that menopausal women experience symptoms like hot flashes/flushes, night sweats, sleep disturbances, sexual dysfunction, mood disorders, weight gain and cognitive decline which overall affect their lives. Though hormonal therapies are used for symptom management, it was found to have some side effects and increase the chance of cancer. Complementary and alternative medicines (CAM) have a positive impact on the same management. Relaxation, biofeedback, meditation, aromatherapy, use of mineral products and other methods like traditional Chinese medicines, reflexology, acupuncture, acupressure and homeopathy are found to be effective in controlling menopause-related symptoms. We should make them aware of these complementary and alternative medicines.

Published: March 2024

Malnutrition in the elderly is caused by various complicated interaction of several factors and also it is a common issue among them. Studies from low- and middle-income countries reported a substantially greater prevalence of malnutrition than research from high income nations. According to the studies conducted in India overall occurrence of malnutrition in Indian elderly is 17.93%. Additionally, the prevalence of malnutrition was significantly influenced by geography and the tool used to detect it. The prevalence of malnutrition was higher among female 16.67%, hospital settings 28.87%, urban areas 19.29%, and northern region 27.37% of India. Malnutrition in the elderly is linked to decreased mobility, weakened immunity, and cognitive impairment, all of which lower their overall functional capacity. So, elderlies are specifically susceptible to malnutrition; thus, it is important to identify nutritional issues in them and take appropriate action.

Profit management appears to have established a global business culture practiced by all companies. Although profit management practice theory is still regarded lawful when it does not conflict with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), but if viewed from Islamic business ethics then the practice of profit management is a practice that is considered not in line with the values contained in Islamic business ethics.

Authors: Danial Danial
Published: March 2024

This study focuses on two things, namely; first, explaining the substance of Qanun Aceh Number 11 of 2018 and second, finding and explaining the connection of this Qanun with the economic benefits of the Acehnese community in the perspective of maqāsid al-syarīah. Through the literature study and data document review of the Aceh Statistics Agency, it was found: First, Qanun Aceh Number 11 of 2018 has been in effect in Aceh for 4 (four) years. This law consists of XII chapters and 67 articles. In consideration, the philosophical, historical, sociological, and juridical foundations of this qanun are explained. This study found that all financial institutions operating in Aceh must be based on sharia principles even if they are not labeled sharia. This conclusion is reinforced by the explanation of article 3 of this law in relation to the universal basis that adheres to the principled system of conducting business activities in the financial field that applies in general while still referring to sharia principles. This conclusion shows that this Qanun offers the Islamization of financial institutions in Aceh substantially not formally. Second, in the perspective of maqāsid al-syarī'ah, this Qanun has not shown a significant increase in the economic benefits of the people of Aceh. This conclusion is supported by BPS Aceh data on economic benefits. There are 4 (four) indicators used to measure it, namely; economic growth rate, CPI, poverty profile, and financial access to UMKM. The word has not been used to explain that this Qanun has only been implemented for 4 (four) years and was interrupted by the Covid 19 pandemic. Therefore, it cannot be concluded that the SFI Qanun does not affect the economic benefits of the Acehnese community. Unless it has not given a significant influence for the economic benefits of Aceh practically-factually.
Un modelo de autosostenibilidad urbana como fractalidad del metabolismo social
Authors: Ramírez Ruano Mauricio Eugenio , Escandón Bojórquez Elizabeth
Published: March 2024

El modelo de gestión del hogar urbano que proponemos es aplicable para los hogares de la clase media urbana en sus tres subclasificaciones; no obstante su tamaño y número de integrantes, ya que, como principio, el modelo se basa en la gradualidad de los avances en varios aspectos, donde todos suman resultados concretos en la descarga de presión al planeta, a la economía familiar y dinamizan el metabolismo social de las comunidades con un enfoque sostenible. La estructura del modelo se divide en tres grandes ramas sustantivas: las dimensiones de actuación, la filosofía de autosostenibilidad y los marcos conceptuales y referenciales que lo sustentan. Estas ramas tienen interacciones a través de círculos concéntricos que parten del individuo, continúan en la familia y relaciones cercanas, que crecen hacia la comunidad, al municipio y al Estado. Las dimensiones de actuación integran: el autocuidado a la salud, la alimentación presente y futura, la autonomía financiera sostenible, la disminución del impacto al ambiente que viene aparejada con los ahorros en costos de servicios basados en prácticas hogareñas y ecotecnias, y la gestión del espacio físico en los círculos concéntricos según la teoría ecológica de Urie Bronfenbrenner. Desde este punto de vista nuestro modelo reproduce a detalle a la menor escala prevista por el metabolismo social todos sus componentes de apropiación, transformación, consumo, distribución y excreción; resultando en una unidad fractal con potencial de multiplicación desde el punto de vista social siguiendo las interacciones de los círculos concéntricos en los que se basa el modelo.

Published: March 2024

La urbanización es un proceso que concentra a la población y las actividades en los espacios urbanos, lo que conlleva a cambios no sólo demográficos, sino también económicos, culturales y ambientales que deben ser abordados. Este capítulo tiene como objetivo diagnosticar la situación del crecimiento de las ciudades y el cambio climático en el mundo mediante una revisión descriptiva de las variables, derivando en una transición hacia políticas públicas de adaptación climática. El propósito es exponer que existe la relación entre el crecimiento de los espacios urbanos y el cambio climático, con la finalidad de mostrar los impactos del cambio climático en los aspectos económicos, sociales, ambientales y urbanos en el ámbito internacional. La importancia del tema de investigación radica en que las ciudades operan como sostén de la dinámica económica mundial, ya que son el lugar de preferencia para el desarrollo de las actividades económicas; por lo tanto, es en ellas donde se perpetua el patrón energético basado en el consumo de combustibles fósiles que emite gases y compuestos de efecto invernadero, influyendo directamente en el cambio del clima por acciones antropogénicas. Las ciudades en relación con el ambiente ejercen presión al cambio de extensión o magnitud de las áreas urbanas, que desplazan y transforman el territorio de acuerdo con el contexto social y económico.

В настоящее время предприятия отрасли активно приступили к замене сахара на подсластители в рецептурах безалкогольных напитков. В статье авторы рассматривают возможность использования сиропа «Имперский» в производстве безалкогольных напитков в качестве альтернативной замены сахара и его влияние на органолептические показатели напитков. В эксперименте исследовали образцы безалкогольных напитков трех различных групп — на растительном сырье, с соком, на ароматизаторах. Органолептическую оценку напитков проводили в соответствии с ГОСТ 6687.5–86, массовую концентрацию сахаров определяли методом высокоэффективной жидкостной хроматографии. Анализ полученных результатов показал, что внешний вид, цвет и аромат всех исследованных экспериментальных образцов напитков соответствовал контрольным образцам. Установлено, что все варианты напитков, приготовленные с использованием сиропа «Имперский», имеют приятный полный и слаженный вкус, отличаются отсутствием остаточной сладости, характерной для напитков на подсластителях, а суммарное содержание сахаров значительно ниже, чем в контрольных образцах, приготовленных с использованием сахара. Сироп «Имперский» может быть использован в производстве безалкогольных напитков как при 100 %-й замене сахара, так и при совместном использовании различных видов сахаров и/или подсластителей.

Currently, industry enterprises have actively begun replacing sugar with sweeteners in soft drink formulations. The article discusses the possibilities of using Imperial syrup in the production of soft drinks as an alternative replacement for sugar and its effect on the organoleptic characteristics of drinks. The experiment examined samples of soft drinks from 3 different groups — plant-based, juice-based, and flavored. Organoleptic evaluation of drinks was carried out in accordance with GOST 6687.5–86, the mass concentration of sugars was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. Analysis of the results showed that the appearance, color and aroma of all experimental drink samples studied corresponded to the control samples. It has been established that all variants of drinks prepared using Imperial syrup have a pleasant, full and harmonious taste, are distinguished by the absence of residual sweetness characteristic of drinks with sweeteners, and the total sugar content is significantly lower than in control samples prepared using sugar. Imperial syrup can be used in the production of soft drinks both as a 100% replacement of sugar and when using different types of sugars and/or sweeteners together.

Nutraceutical is any substance that might be categorized as food or a component of food that are beneficial in the prevention and treatment of diseases. Categories of nutraceuticals are dietary fiber, prebiotics, probiotics, fatty acids, polyphenols, antioxidants etc. Dietary fiber is made up of lignins and non-digestible carbohydrates that are intrinsic in plants. Probiotics are beneficial live bacteria and yeasts for our digestive system. Prebiotics are substances that stimulate the activity or growth of microorganisms that improve the health of their host. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids have a significant anti-inflammatory function. The synthesis of proinflammatory cytokines such prostaglandins, leukotrienes, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interferon-gamma, and interleukins-6 and 12 is inhibited by alpha-linolenic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid. The anti-inflammatory characteristics of curcumin are demonstrated by its capacity to inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokines. Epigallocatechin Gallate is a tea polyphenols decrease DNA damage caused by UV radiation, prevent lipid peroxidation, and lessen the production of ROS and free radicals in the skin. Antioxidants are also essential for maintenance of health and wellness since they act as our body's first line of defense against free radical damage.

Digital Dystopia in the context of 21st century with special Reference to Cyber world, Sublimity, and artificial Intelligence.
Authors: Bhattacharjee Debasmita , Gope Laxmiram
Published: March 2024

Once Albert Einstein said "I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiots". This saying is very much relevant so far the 21st century is concerned. The present era is an age of the three M's (Men, Machines and Media). The technological innovations have created such a hyper real society, that gradually people start to forget about their humanism. In order to sublimate their intelligence and ideas for the sake of worldwide development, they give huge importance to digital media instead of their own carnal labour. To execute this purpose, the mechainenary systems as well as social media act like partners in crime with the human brain. Various social media platforms are basically the updated platform of the cyber world, which is very much responsible for manipulating and motivating the psychology of humans. These influences are so high that people do not even think twice before indulging themselves in several crimes through these media platforms. Cyber crimes, robotic invention, uncontrollable dependence on the internet with some malicious purpose - these are enough to establish a tyrannical totalitarian society where everything is under the control of virtual platforms. These actually transform the humans into degenerate beings. Social media is simply a tyrant in disguise. The virtual mode, which helps people to get easily connected with each other, is nothing but a place of utter destruction, better to say a dystopia. Dystopia is the very opposite of an ideal world which involves less crime. In the present 21st century, digital dystopia denotes the artificial, ahistorical digital society where there is a dominance of technology over public and private ongoings of human activities as well as society at large; which yields desolation. The developed applications used in windows, Android, desktops are solely responsible for such chaotic structure of the world. Moreover, there are some underworld people who misuse those applications to distort the syntactic structure of the society. They use to dwell in a metaphorical panopticon ( a kind of cell ) area of society from where every aspect of humans can be keenly observed; but ironically people neither can see them nor can see their way of controlling people. In one word, this present digital dystopian universe acts like the character of Big Brother in George Orwell's dystopian fiction Nineteen Eighty-Four which hovers over this infernal world just like a wild vulture. Literally, people have transformed into idiots at the hands of technology.

With the rapid development of mobile Internet, home broadband has been integrated into people's daily lives, and the market has become increasingly saturated. User experience and broadband quality have become the key factors determining market competitiveness, and consequently, most operators currently are increasing attention to network quality issues and how to improve user experience. This paper proposes an efficient machine learning model to accurately evaluate home user network experiences. The dataset used encompasses network indicator data from 500 anonymized users, and presents a set of formidable challenges including a non-standard sampling rate and time range, an uneven distribution of observations, multiple recorded observations for identical timestamps, a constrained sample size, a subjective definition of Internet experience, and a lack of essential information regarding the data collection setup. Our novel time series characteristic-based method extracts thousands of descriptive statistics from the time series sequences which reveal that, even in the face of the dataset's inherent complexities, our proposed method excels, achieving an impressive 67% validation accuracy. This represents a substantial 3% enhancement over the performance of conventional models on this dataset. Furthermore, we explore the potential of a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) model, which also yields promising results with a validation accuracy of 58%. It is important to underscore that the performance of the RNN model could be substantially enhanced with a larger dataset. [...]

Introduction and aim: The babirusa (Babyrousa babyrussa Celebensis Deniger) is a genetic resource of immeasurable value, even though it has held protected status for nearly 60 years. Unfortunately, its status remains declared as endangered due to factors such as forest encroachment in the North Sulawesi region. This research aims to investigate the behaviours of community collectors, traders, and consumers concerning their level of interest in babirusa meat, which continues to circulate in the Langowan traditional market, Minahasa Regency. The findings of this study can provide valuable recommendations for the government to formulate new policies and regulations. Methods: The research employed a survey method, focusing on the community of collectors, traders, and buyers of babirusa meat in the Langowan traditional market, Minahasa Regency, and its surroundings. Results: The results from the field survey were then juxtaposed with the outcomes of sensory test analyses conducted by several panellists at the Animal Products Technology Laboratory. Until now, babirusa meat remains a sought-after commodity for Minahasa residents in the Langowan area and its surroundings. This indicates that despite the existence of government regulations in the form of Conservation Law No. 5 of 1990, there is still evidence of the covert sale of protected babirusa meat in the Langowan traditional market, Minahasa Regency, North Sulawesi province of Indonesia. In conclusion: The local individuals in the Langowan traditional market of Minahasa Regency who purchase and consume babirusa meat are predominantly under 50 years old, with a higher representation of males with the majority holds of elementary school education, and their primary occupation of farmers. Public awareness of the endemic babirusa is remarkably high. The sensory test results indicated that babirusa meat is perceived as highly attractive in terms of colour, possesses a distinctive meaty aroma, rough texture, excellent taste, and high tenderness. This positive perception is linked to the understanding that babirusa meat has its own benefits, leading to a genuine liking for this unique meat. Implications: There exists a notable public awareness of babirusa as an endemic animal. The overall acceptability of babirusa meat was noteworthy, reinforcing its significance as an endemic animal in North Sulawesi. Specifically, the Langowan traditional market has been a focal point for the buying and selling of babirusa meat. This practice, which was more prevalent before 1990, continues to be carefully executed in the Langowan market being protected for the next sustainability of this endemic animals.

Environmental virology linked to waterborne diseases and foodborne pathogens: Human and animal food viruses
Authors: SIMÕES, R.S.Q

Foodborne illnesses constitute a serious global one health issue. The transmission of foodborne viruses can occur due to inadequate hygiene of food, lack of basic sanitation, poor personal hygiene and consumption of raw or undercooked food. This study aims overview about environmental virology linked to waterborne diseases and foodborne pathogens in human and animal food viruses. Thus, epidemiological studies have proposed some emerging pathogens as possible transmitters of contaminated water ingestion based on biochemical properties and viral structures such as: Picornaviridae (polioviruses, enteroviruses, coxsakiviruses, hepatitis A viruses and echoviruses), Adenoviridae (adenoviruses), Caliciviridae (noroviruses, caliciviruses, astroviruses), and Reoviridae (reoviruses and rotaviruses). These viruses can cause gastrointestinal, liver and central nervous system disorders. In controlling foodborne infections, accurately identifying sources of contamination is a significant challenge, given the complexity of the food production chain. The lack of adequate monitoring and neglect of good health practices contribute to the spread of these infections. Large-scale immunization has contributed to the reduction of enteric outbreaks and eradication of cases in many regions of the world as a prevention of hepatitis A and poliomyelitis. However, challenges such as the lack of effectiveness in inspecting viruses in food increase the risk of outbreaks and epidemics, with emphasis on Noroviruses as the main causes of these infections today. Investment in vaccine research and development has been a fundamental strategy to reduce these statistics, especially in vulnerable groups. Moreover, the implementation molecular-based tools and wastewater-based epidemiology studies to high-throughput for aquatic biomonitoring should be up to date to avoid the risk and impact on public health and aquatic environments. Novel perspectives to control of waterborne viruses has been introduced in continuous surveillance programs for ecosystems monitoring.

Cats are an invasive alien species that can negatively affect wildlife. However, information regarding their impact on Neotropical wildlife is scattered and limited. We conducted a systematic review to identify studies specifically exploring the impact of cats on wildlife in the Neotropics. In particular, we aimed: 1) to identify the temporal evolution of studies on the impact of cats, as well as bias and gaps that have occurred as a result of their spatial distribution (per country) and the typology of their impact; 2) to identify the Neotropical wildlife species directly affected by cat predation and to categorize these according to their taxonomic groups; 3) to describe the research techniques employed; and 4) to compare the environments evaluated (urban, rural, natural, mixed), as well as the different categories of cats (feral, stray, owned, mixed) involved. We found a total of 55 studies conducted in seven Neotropical countries, with Brazil presenting the most research, but found no research at all in 26 countries. Evaluation of pathogens in cats was the main topic addressed. In total, 215 taxa were reported to be affected by cat predation, with birds being the most frequent. Nine techniques were used in these studies, with blood analysis presented as the most commonly used methodology. Owned cats in urban environments were the most frequently evaluated, and stray cats in mixed environment were the least frequently evaluated. Our results show that cats have a significant negative effect on Neotropical wildlife, and increased studies are therefore a priority.
