Analysis of AIF regulation implementation in the Republic of Moldova and the Republic of Cyprus
Authors: Vostricov Denis
Published: July 2023

Modern financial relationships between investors and beneficiaries evolved, seeking efficient management of financial resources. Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs) gain a greater role in international financial intermediation bringing plenty of benefits for market participants and the market as a whole: flexible investment tool, lesser administrative burden, wide diversity of asset classes, favourable taxation, market diversification and others. Legal regimes are important to promote investments and the employment of AIF as investment tools. The stable operation of AIFs in many EU countries is attributed to clear and efficient regulation. The Republic of Moldova adopted the EU AIF regulatory regime in 2020 but does not register the same success as many EU financial centres. The supposition is that the law is not being implemented as expected and that there are other structural factors requiring regulators’ attention. The aim of the paper is to compare the national AIF regime with one of the successful cases in the EU and determine which factors within the compared jurisdictions may hinder the appropriate application of AIF law in Moldova. The data used for the paper are official sources, legislation and market data. The methodology is mostly qualitative based on analysis and synthesis. Findings suggest that the adoption of EU AIF-related legislation had a beneficial effect on modernising Cypris AIF regulation. In order to develop the national AIF market, it is necessary for intersectoral cooperation of regulators to eliminate structural weaknesses and create incentives for AIF application.

Authors: Ghosha Rituparna , Ghosh Dipanwita , Ghosh Somnath , Mukherjee Gopeswar
Published: July 2023

Climate change and related environmental factors like air pollutants, heat wave, UV radiation, smoke, greenhouse gases, bacteria, viruses, humidity, and temperature variation have considerable impact on human health and also on ocular structures like cornea, conjunctiva, and retina. Due to urbanization, deforestation and industrialization, in middle income developing countries like India, the effect of climate change on human health and eye health is even more causing significant increase in health-related costs. Eye is the most sensitive and vulnerable organ exposed to environmental insults resulting in many eye diseases like cataract, pterygium, glaucoma, neoplasia and dry eye. Moreover, diversity of Indian climate and the changes in the climate is giving rise to many emerging eye diseases and is also increasing the prevalence of many preexisting ocular conditions. Therefore, the main aim of this literature review is to highlight the impact of climate change in overall eye health and to report literature on the same in Indian context.

Bamboos are self renewable resources and comprises one of the most important natural resources of the world. Many species of bamboos are largely distributed especially in the tropical and sub-tropical of the world and play a prominent role in the economy of developing countries in Asia, Latin America and Africa. All over the world there are about 1200 species of bamboos. In India, N. E. India has a great diversity and culture of bamboo. Bamboo is a very important non-timber forest produce which is a quick growing and has short rotation. It has good regeneration and economic values. For centuries, bamboos have played an important role in the daily life of the people in many countries with wide range of values and uses. Mizoram has abundant natural bomboo resources, the current listings now indicate that out of 150 India’s bamboo species, as many as 64 species occur in North-East India, out of which 22 species have been recorded from Mizoram. Bamboos found in Mizoram are both clump and non-clump forming, the non-clump forming are commonly found in the cooler, higher parts of the State while the clump forming are mostly distributed in the sub-tropical region.

Published: July 2023

Fish that are predators of immature stages of mosquitoes are referred to as larvivorous fish. Both exotic and indigenous fishes are used as biocontrol agent of pre adult mosquitoes. This study was conducted with a purpose to estimate diversity, habit-habitats and abundance of endemic larvivorous fish. Present study was conducted during 2018-20, in the vicinity of three selected rivers i.e., Asan, Song and Suswa of Doon valley. Collected fish were sorted and identified following standard keys and catalogues. Habit-habitat, species abundance, diversity indices and similarity index were estimated using standard formulae. A total of 35 species of larvivorous fish under 5 orders, 8 families and 17 genera have revealed and listed based on habit and habitat found. Different study areas showed variation in abundance of fish diversity. Suswa’s sites contribute highest number of species (32) followed by Asan (28) and Song (27). Water bodies like pond, river, stream, tank, water canal, swamp and rice field are the main habitats in the study sites. Highest number of fish species is shared by river (35) followed by stream (26), pond (25), water canal (23), rice field (19), tank (18) and swamp (16) in succeeding order. Channa punctata is recovered from all the considered habitats. Some fish are found to restrict in particular habitats in all sites. While estimating relative abundance (RA), Pethia ticto species shows highest in Asan’s sites and Song’s sites but in Suswa’s sites Channa punctata showed highest abundance. None of the fish species shows dominant and eudominant status in abundance. Species richness, diversity, evenness, effective number of species are also estimated. Similarity index of species diversity among the selected riverine sites are also calculated. Prior the adoption of fish as biocontrol agents of mosquito, extensive knowledge on larvivorous fish, its features, diversity, distribution, habit and habitat are required.
Pollination biology of Rhynchostylis retusa (L.) Blume – An epiphytic ornamental orchid
Authors: Magotra Pratibha , Verma Shivali , Sharma Namrata
Published: July 2023

Pollination in Orchidaceae is known to have co evolved with its pollinators and many orchids in the absence of their pollinators fail to set fruits, leading to the decline in number in the wild. In the present investigation, pollination biology of Rhynchostylis retusa (L.) Blume was studied. Flowers of R. retusa as expected are entomophilous. These are visited by several insects including bees, butterflies and beetles, however, only Xylocopa sp. was found to be the potential pollinator of the species. Fruit set on manual pollination was quite higher than on open pollination. However, no fruit set was observed in bagged flowers. The species is thus self-compatible but, requires its specific pollinator for successful reproduction.

Published: July 2023

There is a common assumption among individuals that the complexity involved in developing novel systems utilizing Web
technologies implies that Information Systems (IS) that are Web-based must possess fundamental and significant distinctions from
conventional IS. This study raises skepticism regarding the veracity of this claim. The literature pertaining to academic research,
manuals, and sales material frequently espouses optimistic claims regarding the capabilities of e-commerce and e-business
technologies and applications, often grounded in the assumption of novelty associated with the Internet. The objective of the research
is to establish a systematic classification system for information systems theory based on its efficacy in addressing four fundamental
objectives: analysis, explanation, prescription, and prediction. This study utilized both experimental and descriptive qualitative
methodologies. Subsequent to the analysis phase in the system development cycle of information technology, the design phase ensues.
The results indicate that the evolution of an information technology system can be delineated by its phases of requirement
specification, design planning, and execution. The manifestation of this phenomenon is observed through the development of a
strategic blueprint, the production of a visual representation or draft, or the organization of multiple components into a functional
entirety. In conclusion, it is imperative for information systems to give priority to both the user and the integration of the system.

A gravidez cornual representa entre 2 a 4% das gestações ectópicas e a taxa de mortalidade materna desta condição é o dobro do valor das outras gestações tubárias. Um procedimento laparoscópico pode ser necessário para confirmar o diagnóstico, contudo, no caso de sangramento intraperitoneal abundante é recomendada uma laparotomia imediatamente. Neste trabalho, relatamos o caso de uma mulher de 32 anos que apresentou abdome agudo hemorrágico devido a uma gravidez ectópica cornual. Foi submetida à laparotomia exploradora e histerectomia com preservação dos ovários, sem intercorrências.
Total Hip Arthroplasty Learning Curves Based on Approach for New Fellowship-trained Surgeons
Authors: Messina James C. , Magnuson Justin A. , Melnic Christopher M. , Frisch Nicholas B. , Krueger Chad A. , Grosso Matthew J.
Published: July 2023

Introduction:

There is concern that the direct anterior (DA) approach is associated with a steeper learning curve than the posterolateral (PL) approach in total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study was to investigate if the learning curve is similar for newly trained arthroplasty fellowship-trained surgeons using the DA and PL approaches.

Methods:

The first 100 primary THA cases of six DA and PL fellowship-trained arthroplasty surgeons were identified and divided into 50 case cohorts. Demographics, indications for surgery, and 90-day Hip Society standardized complications were collected. Variables were analyzed using independent sample t tests, chi-square tests, or Fisher exact tests.

Results:

In total, there were 600 patients, and no notable differences were observed in revision surgeries, surgical complications, and total complications between the DA and PL groups. Both groups had lower revision surgery rates, surgical complications, and total complications during their second 50 cases. Higher revision surgeries, and surgical and total complication rates were observed among all surgeons during the first 50 cases.

Discussion and Conclusion:

No differences were observed in the learning curve when comparing the DA and PL approach. With proper training, early-career surgeons can safely perform THA with similar complication rates regardless of the approach.

Tropism prediction in HIV-1 variants circulating in Cuba, 2017-2019: Implications for the pathogenesis of infection and response to Maraviroc
Authors: Batista Anamary , Santos Lissette , var Liuber , lez Melissa , Saavedra Yanet , vila Jorge , Torres H , ez Tamara , Puertas Juliet , Morales Yoanna , Romero Enrique , Cardell Vivian
Published: July 2023

Background:
Tropism is determined by the ability of HIV-1 to bind to the receptors CCR5 or CXCR4 to enter the target cell, which has implications for the pathogenesis of the disease and affects treatment options. This study determined the relationship between the tropism of HIV-1 variants circulating in Cuba, with different variables, and the implications for the use of co-receptor inhibitors.
Methods:
Plasma samples from 69 of HIV-1 seropositive patients, period 2017-2019, were analyzed. Fragments of the env and pol regions of the virus were sequenced. The subtype and prediction of the viral phenotype, viral mutations, as well as the relationship of the phenotype and subtype with clinical, epidemiological, and virological variables were determined.
Results:
The recombinant CRF19_cpx (p=0.0234) showed a significant association with viruses that use the X4 and R5X4/X4 Co-receptor, even in untreated patients. Of the viruses studied, 78.26% presented at least one mutation associated with resistance to Maraviroc, although the patients had not received prior therapy with this drug.
Conclusion:
The preferential tropism for the CXCR4 co-receptor, detected in the CRF19_cpx variant, accompanied by greater viral replication and unrelated to the time of diagnosis of the patients, reinforces the hypothesis that viral variant is more pathogenic. The high frequency of polymorphisms and mutations that confer resistance to Maraviroc in the V2 and V3 regions of HIV-1 of the Cuban recombinant forms indicate that there could be a natural resistance to this antiretroviral.

Authors: Saavedra Yanet , rez Lissette , Cardell Vivian , lez Melissa , Pintos Jaime , vila Jorge , Gomez Carlos , Guilarte Elias , Brito Yudira , Morales Yoanna , Fernandez Karla
Published: July 2023

Background:
Cuban studies show high levels of viral resistance in treated and untreated patients. In 2017, dolutegravir was introduced as a rescue therapy in Cuba, and in 2018 as first-line regimens. The aim of this study was to determine the primary and secondary resistance of HIV-1 to dolutegravir in Cuban patients with multiple resistances.
Methods:
The sample consisted of 29 patients, of which 23 had not been treated with dolutegravir. The viral RNA isolated from plasma was amplified and the fragment of the pol gene encoding viral integrase (3854-5981bp) was sequenced. The viral subtype of the 29 viruses was determined.
Results:
No primary resistance mutations to dolutegravir were detected in any patient. The polymorphic positions found with greater frequency in the treated patients were: 112 and 119 (both with 73.9%), 125 (69.5%), and 201 (78.2%). Virological suppression was achieved in 18 out of 23 patients (78.2%) and in 14 out of 23 (60.8%) at three and six months after the start of treatment, respectively. Of the six patients who had received dolutegravir prior to this study, four (66.7%) developed resistance to integrase inhibitors. The subtypes found were: B (41%), CRF19_cpx (24%), CRF18_cpx and C (both 14%), and G (7%).
Conclusion:
Primary resistance to DTG was not detected, while secondary resistance was high in those patients who received a single daily dose of the antiviral. It is necessary to delve into the role of some polymorphisms, more frequent in certain subtypes, and their contribution to primary resistance.

Implikasinya adalah adanya penurunan adab murid di sekolah, yang disebabkan minimnya pantauan guru dalam sistem online. Melihat permasalahan tersebut, penulis mencoba mencari alternatif solusi dengan memunculkan istilah dalam tarekat Tijaniyah yang disebut dengan suhbah. Menurut tarekat Tijaniyah, suhbah merupakan metode pendekatan guru-murid yang ditandai dengan inisiasi spiritual, penggunaan khirqah sebagai identitas lahir seorang ahli suluk. Dengan begitu, maka penulis berupaya untuk menguraikan teori dan aplikasi suhbah dalam membangun adab perspektif tarekat Tijaniyah. Jenis penelitian yang dilakukan menggunakan penelitian kepustakaan dimana sumber primer didapatkan dari beberapa karya Tarekat Tijaniyah dan sekunder dari data lain yang terkait. Penelitian ini juga termasuk kualitatif, yang bertujuan mengembangkan dan membuktikan teori hipotesis yang diajukan. Hasil penelitian yang dicapai adalah: Pertama; Teori suhbah dalam membangun adab perspektif tarekat Tijaniyah merupakan proses pendekatan guru-murid dengan cara mensucikan diri melalui wirid lazimah, wazifah, dan hailalah yang ditandai dengan inisiasi spiritual dan penggunaan khirqah untuk mencapai ma’rifatullah. Kedua; Aplikasi suhbah dalam membangun adab perspektif tarekat Tijaniyah dapat dilakukan melalui dua pendekatan yaitu pendekatan vertikal dan pendekatan horizontal. Ketiga; Teori suhbah dan aplikasi suhbah dalam membangun adab perspektif tarekat Tijaniyah adalah untuk mentransformasikan akhlak murid menjadi berakhlakul karimah serta sampai pada derajat ma’rifah dengan cara mengamalkan wirid lazimah, wirid wazifah, dan wirid hailalah

Sadašnje stanje crnoborovih šuma u našoj zemlji, u većini područja, je tako nepovoljno da navodi neke autore da ih smatraju ugroženim. Prema starosti, stepenu očuvanosti, kvalitetu, dosadašnjem postupku i podmladjivanje sastojine crnog bora se značajno razlikuje po pojedinim područjima, ali je njihovo stanje u celini nezadovoljavajuće i posledica sticaja niza nepovoljnih faktora u osetljivom trenutku potrebe za obnavljanjem.
Rekonstrukcija šuma na području preduzeća "Incel"
Authors: Sendić Borivoj
Published: July 2023

Integracijom tri šumsko-privredna preduzeća u zajednicu "INCEL" osnovana je radna jedinica OOUR za gazdovanje šumama, koja gazduje šumama na sva tri područja. Odmah se uočio problem: kako provoditi koncepciju programa integracionog elaborata na bazi postojećih šumsko-privrsdnih osnova za tri područja. Naime, te oslove propisuju različite metode kako da se postigne proizvodni cilj u konkretnoj gazdinskoj klasi. Ovo se naročito odnosi na visoke šume bukve i hrasta koje u ovom području dominiraju. Zajednička je, medjutim, za sve tri osnove tvrdnja da je sadašnje stanje u tim šumama loše u pogledu prirasta, kvaliteta i količine drvnih masa. Pored toga što osnove predvidjaju različite sisteme gazdovanja, obim uzgojnih radova, naročito onih aktivnih, kao što je sadnja sadnica, predvidja se ne prema utvrdjenim potrebama, nego "prema finansijskim mogućnostima radne organizacije", kao da finansijske mogućnosti nisu direktno zavisne od stanja šuma odnosno od njihovog momentanog i budućeg prinosnog potencijala.

Tipološka klasifikacija šuma crnog i bijelog bora, koja se daje u ovom radu, nastavak je započetih radova na ekološko-proizvodnoj klasifikaciji šuma u Bosni i Hercegovini po koncepcijama koje su izložene u jednom od prvih radova ove vrste kod nas (Ćirić et al. 1971.). Izvjesne manje modifikacije u primijenjenoj metodici kod razrade borovih šuma proizlaze iz njihovog karaktera u sindinamskom pogledu.

Kao i kod dosadašnjih radova, rezultati ovih istraživanja namijenjeni su, prije svega, šumarskoj praksi da bi se racionalnije koristili potencijali ovih staništa.
Privlačenje, utovar i transport drveta
Authors: Mihać Branko
Published: July 2023

Šumom obrasli predjeli Bosne i Hercegovine rasprostiru se prvenstveno na brežuljastim i planinskim područjima. Upravo zbog ove orografske strukture terena, transport drveta u svim njegovim fazama predstavlja prilično komplikovan i skup posao. Od tri faze transporta drveta: primicanje (sakupljanje), vuča (privlačenje) i prevoz drveta, najteža je prva faza u kojoj se drvo kreće po bespuću od panja do nekog traktorskog ili kamionskog puta.

Ako se navedene faze transporta posmatraju sa stanovišta napora pri radu i troškova svedenih na istu distancu transporta, tada se može konstatovati da su u prvoj fazi (primicanju) troškovi najveći, a u trećoj (prevozu) najmanji. U obrnutom su odnosu potrebna ulaganja za gradnju putova. Dok u prvoj fazi nema nikakvog izgradjenog puta, pa ni troškova za gradnju, u trećoj fazi su potrebna velika finansijska sredstva za izgradnju kamionskih putova s kolovozom.

 U kompleksnom problemu transporta sa stanovišta: put-vozilo-vuča, uvijek se traži najpovoljnije i najekonomičnije rješenje za konkretne prilike.
Metodološki prilaz rješavanju problema bioloških melioracija i njihov uticaj na zaštitu zemljišta i konzervaciju vode

U okviru projekta "Unapredjenje šumske proizvodnje u arealu šuma mediteranskog i submediteranskog područja, vršena su ova istraživanja. Metodološkim prilazom obrade teme "Uloga i značaj šumskih nasada na stabilizaciju zemljišta i konzervaciju vode u području submediterana Hercegovine" predvidjeno je istraživanje uloge važnijih vrsta šumskih drveća i grmlja, koje dolaze u obzir za sadnju na erozionom području submediterana, na stabilizaciju, zaštitu i održavanje proizvodne sposobnosti zemljišta. Istraživanja u području Hercegovine obuhvatila su izučavanje rasta i razvoja zasadjenih vrsta šumskog drveća i njihov uticaj na zaštitu zemljišta i konzervaciju vode na erozionom području i sastavni su dio šireg istraživanja u više republika jer postoje izvjesne specifičnosti sa aspekata zaštite zemljišta u pojedinim područjima. Istraživanje je trajalo svega tri godine što predstavlja kratak rok za studiozniji rad na tako kompleksnom problemu. Zato ovaj rad predstavlja prvu fazu istraživanja koja čini osnovu za izradu detaljni jeg metodološkog prilaza istraživanjima problema zaštite zemljišta od erozije i konzervaciju vode.
Proučavanje metoda obnove u bukovim šumama i mješovitim šumama bukve, jele i smrče
Authors: Pintarić Konrad , Izetbegović Sead
Published: July 2023

Visoke šume u kojima su zastupljene jela, smrča i bukva spadaju u najvrednije šume u SR BiH, jer su po površini najzastupijenije i iz njih se dobija najveći dio drvne mase koja se koristi u mehaničkoj i hemijskoj preradi. Medjutim, različiti ekološki uslovi ne garantuju da će se primjenom istih metoda obnove i njege ovih šuma postići i najbolji biološki i ekonomski efekti. U ovim šumama, bez obzira na zastupljenost vrsta drveća, primjenjivao se jedan način gospodarenja kod kojeg je, zahvaljujući različitosti uslova, došlo i do različitih posljedica, od potpuno zadovoljavajućeg stanja do degradacije ovih šuma. Zato je potrebno da se u najznačajnijim tipovima ovih šuma prouče različite metode obnove i njege, koje se na osnovu tudjih iskustava mogu primijeniti u ovim šumama, i da se, za najznačajnije tipove preporuče i najpogodniji načini obnove i njege šuma. Pošto su 1974. godine slična istraživanja već otpočela, potrebno ih je nastaviti i proširiti na nove površine i pratiti kakav uticaj imaju provedene mjere na ranije postavljenim objektima istraživanja.
Raširenost i varijabilitet poljskog bresta u Bosni i Hercegovini
Authors: Janjić Nikola
Published: July 2023

Predmet istraživanja u ovom radu su brestovi koji prirodno nastanjuju područje Bosne i Hercegovine, a pripadaju sekciji Ulmus (syn.Madocarpus Dum.) i seriji Nitentes Schn, roda Uhnus L.U krugovima stručnjaka, kao i u narodu, njih obično skupno nazivaju poljskim, redje i nizinskim brestom. Radi se o čitavom kompleksu raznih prirodnih svojti i hibridogenih oblika, medjusobno tako složeno povezanih, da je i samo pitanje broja vrsta u našem području rešavano sve do sada na različite i često protivrečne načine. Paradoksalno je da je poljski brest najviše istraživan upravo u periodu kada je trpeo kapitalne štete od napada holandske bolesti, pa samim tim izgubio i svoj raniji ekonomski značaj. Postoji veliki broj gospodarski važnijih vrsta i sa neuporedivo brojnijim populacijama koje nisu izazvale toliki interes istraživača, i to ne samo kod nas, nego i u ostalom evropskom području. U tome se može videti izvestan, možda i nesvestan, napor ka prevazilaženju nastalog stanja, jer taksonomska istraživanja mogu poslužiti kao najbolja osnova za radove na selekciji otpornih svojti, odnosno hibridizaciji i stvaranju otpornih klonova, kao što se već radi u nekim zapadnoevropskim zemljama.

Yıldızların önünden geçerken ürettikleri geçiş sinyali, ötegezegenleri keşfedebilmemizi ve nitelendirmemizi sağlayan en önemli gözlemlenebilirlerden biridir. Geçiş-Yapan Ötegezegen Tarama Uydusu (TESS) tarafından toplanan hassas ışık ölçüm verisi kullanarak, TESS İlginç Nesne çalışma grubu Kasım 2022 itibarıyla 6.000'i aşkın ötegezegen adayı tespit etmiştir. Bunlar içerisinde barınak yıldızı genç, yörünge mimarisi nadir ve çok-ötegezenli birçok sistem bulunmaktadır. Bu çeşitliliğin ötegezegen oluşum ve evrim süreçleri konusundaki algımızı ciddi şekilde güçlendirmesi beklenmektedir. Bilhassa TESS'in keşfettiği birçok küçük ötezegen JWST ve diğer uzay- ve yer-konuşlu büyük teleskoplar tarafından geçiş tayfı ölçümüne elverişlidir ve Neptün-altı ve kayasal ötegezegenlerin atmosfer niteliklerinin ortaya çıkarılmasına büyük bir katkıda bulunmaktadırlar.

Published: July 2023

Stigma carries the risk of marginalization along with negative health consequences. Stigma by association affects to professionals who work with groups of people who are considered a risk to the population. In this work we explore the stigma received (SR), the psychological health and the professional image of a sample of 233 social-health professionals during the alert state for COVID-19. An ad hoc designed questionnaire and the Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation - Outcome Measure (CORE-OM) were completed on-line. A low ER level and a significant association between ER and health were found. Up to 30% of the sample would be at risk of suffering psychopathological problems and 24% affirmed that their professional image after the crisis had changed. These results require health authorities to plan a mental health care protocol for health and social professionals.
The effect of information and communication technology on economic growth high-income countries
Authors: Satrianto Alpon , Ikhsan Akmil
Published: July 2023

This study analyzes the influence of information and communication technology (ICT) and financial developments on the economic growth in high-income countries. This research uses the panel data regression method with a random effects model (REM) approach. The data were sourced from the World Bank and the International Telecommunication Union publications from 2001–2020. The results show that ICT (fixed telephone subscriptions, mobile/cellular telephone subscriptions, internet users and fixed broadband subscriptions) had no significant effect on economic growth. On the other hand, financial development (domestic credit to the private sector and stock market capitalization) had a significant effect on economic growth. Thus, indicators of financial development are better at promoting economic growth in high-income countries. Domestic credit to the private sector has a greater influence on economic growth compared to stock market capitalization. The research implications show that it is necessary to increase the contribution of financial development, such as facilitating access to credit to the real sector and increasing access to the capital market for economic actors to increase economic growth.

Published: July 2023

Poverty, food insecurity, and lack of employment opportunities are fundamental issues experienced in the rural Philippines. They were worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic, which adversely impacted vulnerable sectors. This study examined the potential and viability of mallard duck egg production in a rural community in the Philippines. Twelve (12) rural women in Licab, Nueva Ecija, received 482 heads of ready-to-lay mallard ducks (Itik Pinas breed) as part of the Department of Agriculture Regional Field Office III's livelihood initiatives. Data were gathered using a participatory research design through a household profile survey, focus group discussion, and descriptive statistics. The study findings showed that the respondents live below the poverty line and have an average monthly income of ₱2,083.33. The study revealed that during the 18 months of egg production, the recipients were able to harvest a total of 144,534 eggs. This provided the respondents with a gross income of ₱929,838.75 and a net gain of ₱341,156.89, corresponding to an average monthly net income of 1,579.43 per respondent. This allowed each respondent to improve their household income by up to 64.12%. Peak egg output was 76% or 60.33% on average. This study also showed the resiliency of rural women, who utilized locally accessible resources to reduce production costs.
Social networks, the fabrication of popular manifestations and attacks against democracy on January 8, 2023 in Brazil
Authors: Fávaro Garrossini Daniela , Aparecida dos Santos Fatima , Alves Tonhá João Victor , Guimarães Pedro Henrique Elias
Published: July 2023

This article investigates how social networks have transformed themselves from the political power of popular expression to algorithmic bubbles and the fabrication of fascism in Brazil. It analyzes the spectacular aspects that led to the attacks of January 8 in Brasilia. This article is based on Paul Virilio's studies on space construction, Castells' assumptions about the advent of networks, and Yann Moulier-Boutang's studies on capitalism and cognitive capitalism. Possible semiotics of the discourse is also discussed based on the provisions of narratives built on the networks in manufacturing the terrorist acts of January 8, 2023. In the end, a panorama was constructed from which, with the distancing of time and verification of layers of meaning, we may develop machinations that perpetuate political and mediatic models that weaken the potential of social groups and of democracy itself.
Disinformation at the Service of Chaos: Communication in Brazil after the January 8 attacks
Authors: Vidal de Souza Rose Mara , Rufino Leal Maria de Jesus Daiane
Published: July 2023

The creation and dissemination of false News in Brazil has become an instrument of political and electoral marketing in the country. With moral content and resorting to sexual, religious, and ethical themes, Fake News acts in the psychological field. It directly impacts the formation of public opinion in the process of Disinformation at the service of chaos in politics. The role of communication in the materialization of the attacks on democracy on January 8 in Brasília and its consequences, as well as the initiatives to combat Disinformation in the country, are analyzed from the perspective of the Narcotizing Effect of the Media (Lazarsfeld & Merton, 1948) and the Theory of Moral Foundations (Haidt, 2012).
