Application of Emphatic Marketing Strategy at Burger King Company on Social Media Against Customer Engagement During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors:   UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya, Al Hamdhan Risky
Published: October 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic that has been going on since the beginning of 2020 has had a tremendous impact on all business sectors. Several sectors experienced a decline, not even a few went bankrupt. One of the companies that managed to survive in the midst of a pandemic is Burger King. By utilizing social media accounts, Burger King is able to optimally implement empathic marketing strategies so as to increase customer engagement. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with a phenomenological approach. This research method will focus on studying and explaining the phenomenon of the marketing strategy used by Burger King during the COVID-19 pandemic. The object of this research is on Burger King's social media pages, namely Instagram (@burgerking.id) and Facebook (Burger King Indonesia). The image post containing the marketing strategy was uploaded on November 3, 2020 or when the COVID-19 pandemic was taking place in Indonesia. One of the latest marketing strategies is to create exclamation content as well as invitations to be uploaded on their official social media which contains an invitation to Burger King to its customers to buy products from various other restaurants, including its competitors, namely McDonald's and KFC. Burger King also recommends its customers to buy from several other fast food/restaurants such as Pizza Hut, Wendy's, Hokben, J.Co, RM Padang Simple, to Warteg. This marketing strategy generates a lot of empathy and respect from netizens to help and invite each other in terms of buying products from the fast food.

It has been established that for extrapolation of the functional dependence of true stresses for tensile conditions of cylindrical samples of metal materials in the region of large deformations, a power dependence is better suited, where the approximation parameters are uniquely determined by the standard mechanical characteristics of materials. A method is proposed for calculating the ultimate deformations during stretching of a sample under the simultaneous action of hydrostatic pressure. It is shown that the calculation results are in satisfactory agreement with the known experimental data obtained by P. Bridgman and J. Bell.

Moral decision-making in trolley problems and variants: how do participants’ perspectives, borderline personality traits, and empathy predict choices?
Authors: Nasello Julian , Dardenne Benoit , Hansenne Michel , Blavier Adélaïde , Triffaux Jean-Marc
Published: October 2021

BackgroundThe present study demonstrated a causal effect of participants’ perspectives on moral decision-making by using Trolley problems and variants. Furthermore, we investigated whether empathy and borderline personality traits (BDL traits) significantly predicted participants’ choices. We used a classical Trolley problem (a causing harm scenario) and an everyday trolley-like problem (a causing inconvenience scenario). MethodsSubjects voluntarily participated in our study (N = 427, women: 54%), fulfilled BDL traits and empathy questionnaires, and randomly completed the two types of Trolley problems, presenting both three perspectives. ResultsWe provided strong evidence that participants’ perspectives on trolley problems and variants caused significant changes in their moral decision-making. Additionally, affective empathy and BDL traits significantly predicted participants’ decisions of the causing inconvenience scenario, while only BDL traits predicted choices in the causing harm scenario. ConclusionsThis study addressed several originalities by providing new experimental materials, causal results, and the significant influence of BDL traits and affective empathy on moral decision-making. These findings raised fundamental questions that are developed in the discussion.
Constraining clouds and convective parameterizations in a climate model from past climate

Published: October 2021

Cloud and convective parameterizations strongly influence uncertainties in equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS). We provide a proof-of-concept study to constrain these parameterizations in a perturbed parameter ensemble of the atmosphere-only version of the Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) Model E2.1 simulations by evaluating model biases in the present-day runs using multiple satellite climatologies and by comparing simulated δ18O of precipitation (δ18Op), known to be sensitive to parameterization schemes, with a global database of speleothem δ18O records covering the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), mid-Holocene (MH) and pre-industrial (PI) periods. Relative to modern interannual variability, paleoclimate simulations show greater sensitivity to parameter changes, allowing for an evaluation of model uncertainties over a broader range of climate forcing and the identification of parts of the world that are parameter sensitive. Certain simulations reproduced absolute δ18Op values across all time periods, along with LGM and MH δ18Op anomalies relative to the PI, better than the default parameterization. No single set of parameterizations worked well in all climate states, likely due to the non-stationarity of cloud feedbacks under varying boundary conditions. Future work that involves varying multiple parameter sets simultaneously with coupled ocean feedbacks will likely provide improved constraints on cloud and convective parameterizations.
Systemic Considerations in Child Development and the Pursuit of Racial Equality in the United States
Authors: Perry Sylvia , Skinner-Dorkenoo Allison Louise , Wages James , Abaied Jamie L
Published: October 2021

In this commentary on Lewis’ (2021) article in Psychological Inquiry, we expand on ways that both systemic and interpersonal contexts contribute to and uphold racial inequalities, with a particular focus on research on child development and socialization. We also discuss the potential roadblocks that may undermine the effectiveness of Lewis’ (2021) recommended strategy of relying on experts as a driving force for change. We conclude by proposing additional strategies for pursuing racial equality that may increase the impact of experts, such as starting anti-racist socialization early in development, family-level interventions, and teaching people about racial injustices and their connections to systemic racism.
Matrix of Maybe
Authors: Baumeister Roy , Maranges Heather M. , Sjåstad Hallgeir
Published: October 2021

The matrix of maybe can be defined as a way of conceptualizing the future, either imminent or distant, as a set of options, only some of which will come true. The “maybe” is meant to invoke not only the options readily available but also the uncertain nature of their consequences. For example, people may choose a job or a spouse from among several options, but making the decision brings a new set of possibilities (maybes). The selected job or spouse could in turn lead in various different directions.
The world of lie detection: a study into state of lie detection usage by state and society in Asia, Africa and Europe
Authors: Banerjee Biswarup , Chatterjee Garga
Published: October 2021

Thought privacy, that is, the right to control who has access to one’s thoughts, is a bedrock of human civilization as we know it today. Lie detection technologies, with their severe limitations, have proliferated in use all over the world. Such unsupervised proliferation of technology that claims to infer human psychological states has huge implications for the future of human existence and rights. We collate data about usage of lie detection technologies for six categories of use in all sovereign countries of Asia, Africa and Europe. The collected data, being category specific, also provides insight into what kind of uses are more prevalent. The present paper provides an idea about the enormity and spread of the problem of lie detection technology proliferation. We also provide observations about legal control mechanisms of such issues. This data provides a baseline for further observation and monitoring of the field of lie detection technology proliferation.

Published: October 2021

The recently constituted association stsing offers scholars a new platform to “do” STS in and through Germany (therefore the wording stsing). Specific about this platform is its creative and open understanding of collaboration on the one hand and critical reflection of national, international, institutional, and intergenerational challenges of STS research on the other. Germany’s specific funding and institutional structure is of central importance to stsing. At the same time, stsing is responding to the internationally integrated practices of STS. It addresses the frictions between local bureaucracies and hierarchies as well as global doings and (self-)understandings of STS. We briefly unfold the (hi)story of stsing: a process of negotiating imaginaries, institutional settings, conflicts and mutual recognition. The challenge is to open spaces and account for the heterogeneous people and disciplines engaged with the ideas, methodologies and politics of STS. stsing experiments with configuring infrastructures and organisational policies to support transnationally and interdisciplinarily oriented STS research practice. This experimentation works across generations and encounters troubles between and within generations of STS.

Published: October 2021

The aim of the present study was to compare the effect of Phyllanthus amarus extracts and its fractions on urinary excretion. Aqueous extract of Phyllanthus amarus was prepared by decoction of the whole plant and lyophilized. Ethanolic fraction and chloroformic fraction of Phyllanthus amarus were obtained from aqueous extract. Animal were divided into 5 groups of 6 rats and placed individually in metabolic cages. The control group received normal water. A positive control group received furosemide (5 mg/kg, i.p.), used as a reference loop diuretic drug. Three other groups were treated with aqueous extract or ethanolic fraction or chloroformic fraction of Phyllanthus amarus by intraperitoneal injection at the same dose of 40 mg/kg. Urine volumes were collected each 2 h during 8 h period. The diuretic action was obtained by a ratio of urinary excretion of treated group and that of control group. Phyllanthus amarus extracts increased urinary excretion. This effect was time dependant and significant, compared to control group (p < 0.001). During all experiments, ethanolic fraction increased urinary excretion, more than other extracts. After 8h period, it had eliminated about 2.44 ± 0.27 mL, however this value remained less than that of furosemide (3.01 ± 0.17 mL). The urinary excretion induced by furosemide was significantly high (p < 0.05), compared to ethanolic fraction, but the ratio was similar. This study showed that, like furosemide, ethanolic fraction seemed to be the most potent extract for diuresis. Further studies might be carried out to identify the actives molecules and its mechanisms.

Published: October 2021

A controllable and targeted drug delivery system development is imperative and important to reduce side effects and enhance the therapeutic efficacy of drugs. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), an emerging type of hybrid porous materials synthesized from metal ions or clusters abridged by organic linkers. They have attracted increasing attention in the recent years owing to the unique physical structures possessed, and the potential for wide range of applications. The superior properties of MOFs, such as well-deﬁned pore aperture, tailorable composition and structure, tunable size, versatile functionality, high agent loading, and improved biocompatibility, have made them promising candidates as drug delivery hosts. MOFs for drug encapsulation and delivery is of great interest and many very promising results have been found, indicating that these porous solids exhibit several advantages over existing systems. This review highlights the recent advances in the synthesis, functionalization, and applications of MOFs in nanodrug delivery, and has classiﬁed them using drug loading strategies.

Authors: Paudel Punya , Adhikari Krishna Raj , Adhikari Kapil
Published: October 2021

Paracetamol (PCA) has two well-known polymorphic forms, monoclinic (form I) and orthorhombic (form II). The parallel packing of ﬂat hydrogen bonded layers in the metastable form II results in compaction properties superior to the thermodynamic stable form I which contains corrugated hydrogen bonded layers of molecules. In this study, the structure of Paracetamol (PCA)-Oxalic acid (OXA) co-crystal has been analyzed and found layered structure similar to PCA form II which enhance ability to form tablet. The Density Functional Theory (DFT) has been conducted to ﬁnd some physicochemical properties of co-crystal. It was observed that the lattice energy of co-crystal is more than that of PCA form II showing more stability on co-crystal. The energy gap between highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO-LUMO gap) in co-crystal was found less than PCA form II showing bigger enhancement of reactivity.

Published: October 2021

Diverse physiography and topography have made the landscape of Nepal fragile and highly vulnerable to climate change. Bamboo is likely to be highly able to stock carbon due to its rapid and easy growth. Here we explore the potentiality of bamboo to combat climate change impacts and biodiversity conservation through mitigation. The mitigation potentiality is studied through biomass and biomass carbon estimation along with soil carbon estimation. Data collected through participatory resource mapping, direct field observation and biophysical measurements were analyzed for biomass estimation and carbon stocking in the biomass and soil of bamboo stand, using Statistical analysis. The study revealed that Melocanna baccifera yielded the highest potential biomass carbon density of 109.41 tons C/plot, followed by Bambusa Nepalensis and Himalayacalamus Fimbriatus of 85.10 tonsC/plot and 64.58 tons C/plot, respectively. However, the soil under Himalayacalamus fimbriatus yielded the highest potential soil organic carbon of 49.24 tons C/plot, followed by the soil under Bambusa Nepalensis and Melocana Bacifera of 38.69 tons C/plot and 27.91 tons C/plot, respectively. Unsustainable extraction of bamboo was highly threatening, therefore, conservation education is recommended to aware local people of the importance of bamboo having the potential to fight against climate change and bringing harmony between biodiversity conservation and traditional culture is recommended.

Home stay tourism which had formally started in 1988 in form of different variety and services, is still  in operation in many countries of today's world in different forms and is being operated as an important campaign to bring economic and social transformations. Home stay is being utilized as a business sector to make investments and generate income in developed countries whereas it is emphasized as a platform for production of local goods and generating employment in developing countries. Developed countries have been making huge investments in home stay and see it as a platform for business and entertainment, whereas it is being operated in different manner in developing countries. In developed countries like America, Europe, Australia, Canada etc, home stay is taken as a tool for earning high income. Developed countries emphasize on internal facilities which add to the attraction of outer environment while identifying the tourists' nature and objective and provide similar facilities. They provide required facilities for food, accommodation, studying, playing, yoga, capacity building and providing training to draw the attention of tourists. The responsibility has come upon the shoulders of related representative organizations and tourism professionals to develop home stay business as a sustainable, good quality and target based tourism. In this context, Nepalese government should develop the concept of home stay tourism in planned manner and identify its vast possibilities. It is important to have the proper direction and helpful role from the government of Nepal in home stay tourism sector which has been developing in rural areas of Nepal, along with the proper management rules and guidelines from the government's side. This article focuses in the business related to home stay and prioritizes the promotional, managerial and developmental aspects of this tourism business in Nepal.
A Victim Diaspora? The Case of the Sikhs
Authors: Singh Gurharpal
Published: October 2021

Since the fateful events of June 1984, when the Indian army entered the Golden Temple in Amritsar, the Sikhs’ holiest shrine, the activities of the Sikh diaspora have attracted considerable academic attention. The fortunes of this vibrant community have become a major transnational irritant to Western states, linking the complex, and often interminable, politics of the homeland with ethnic and social concerns in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Australasia. This volume by Tatla is the first serious effort to study the subject, and it has emerged from the Transnational Communities Programme at the University of Oxford, which is sponsored by the Economic and Social Science Research Council of the United Kingdom.
European Spaces: Portuguese Migrants’ Notions of Home and Belonging
Authors: Klimt Andrea
Published: October 2021

Movement, dislocation, and contingent, multilocal forms of belonging are increasingly prevalent and normalized ways of life. Ethnographers of transnationalism are documenting the various ways in which people connect the complex geographies of their lives and attempt to forge meaningful identities within multiple and protracted disjunctures. According to this literature, mobility, travel, transience, and liminality are the common themes of latetwentieth-century existence (Appadurai; Clifford; Glick-Schiller, Basch, and Szanton Blanc; Pries, “New Migration”); the notion of “home” is increasingly uncoupled from the location of daily life (Amit-Talai; Berking; Goldring; Olwig; Rapport and Dawson, “Home”; Smith); and citizenship is not the only status through which people acquire social and political rights or national identities (Kearney; Soysal). Recent explorations of transnational migration have expanded traditional conceptualizations of the subject and site of anthropological research in order to capture the complex experiences of these on-going global interconnections (see, e.g., Rouse; Mountz and Wright). These efforts have successfully challenged assumptions that movement is unidirectional, that migration is a circumscribed and temporary event in individuals’ lives, and that daily lives and imagined futures are always firmly anchored in a single location (see Basch, Glick Schiller, and Szanton Blanc; Pries, Migration; Rapport and Dawson, Migrants).

The article analyzes the main legal conflicts that arose as a result of the adoption of changes to the land legislation of Ukraine during 2020-2021. It was found that the transfer of land for use requires a permit for the development of technical documentation on land management to establish (restore) the boundaries of land in kind (on the ground). At the same time, there is another conflict - the specified technical documentation performs the same function as the land management project for the allocation of land for use. As a result of the analysis of amendments to the Law of Ukraine "On Land Management", it is established that the wording of the text of the article in terms of the basis of work has two interpretations, the first of which concerns privately owned land, and the second - state and municipal land in use. In addition, it was found that in the latest versions of regulations, the terms "owner" and "owner (manager)" meet next to each other, which allows us to state that the authors of the regulation aimed to separate the disposal of private land from one on the one hand and state and communal - on the other. Key words: legislative acts, land plots, land management, division (association) of land plots, privatization of land plots.

Ehlers-Danlos and respiratory function. Clinical data on a cohort of 5,700 patients: oxygen therapy and physical rehabilitation medicine (P.R.M.)
Authors: Hamonet Claude , Brissot Régine , Amoretti Richard , Ducret Lucette
Published: October 2021

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) appears today to be very common but is still, paradoxically, considered as rare because of a very scarce and belated diagnosis. Respiratory manifestations (exertional dyspnea, painful inspiratory bradypnea and sleep apnea are among the poorly understood manifestations of this diffuse inherited collagen disease. They can cause diagnostic errors, especially with asthma, which can lead to worsening, in these patients with very fragile tissues (including bones), contraindicating corticosteroid therapy. EDS should be systematically discussed in case of respiratory disorders in children but also in adults. There are very beneficial effects observed with oxygen therapy which considerably helps with symptoms such as fatigue, migraine, cognition, by correcting cerebral anoxia which accompanies it. Pneumologists should be made aware of the benefits of oxygen therapy when faced with an EDS patient as they may have to prescribe it.
Clinical - genetic characteristics of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2
Authors: L.G Khachatryan
Published: October 2021

The article is devoted to the issues of diagnosis and therapy of one of the most severe degenerative diseases in children - neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (NCL). This is a group of inherited neurodegenerative diseases related to lysosomal storage diseases characterized by regression of psychomotor development, resistant epileptic seizures, vision failure up to amaurosis. The morphological basis of NCL types is the accumulation of autofluorescence material in tissues (particularly in the brain), similar in structure to ceroids and lipofuscin, which are related to the “aging” and “wear-and-tear” pigments. To date, we know 14 variants of diseases associated with mutations in 13 genes (PPT1, TPP1, CLN3, CLN5, CLN6, MFSD8, CLN8, KPUR, DNAJC5, CTSF, ATP13A2, CTD7).The most common and deeply studied types of NCL are types 1,2,3. According to scientific data, neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis is the most common neurodegenerative disease associated with epilepsy and an early fatal outcome. The article demonstrates a unique family case with this disease, reports a discussion of issues related to preclinical diagnosis through genetic verification and suggests a necessity for etiopathogenetic therapy. Here we present two children, from one family, a brother and sister. At the time of diagnosis the sister already had a complete clinical picture of the disease and was genetically verified as having NCL type 2. This fact enabled to identify the same disease in her younger brother at preclinical level and to begin his pathogenetic therapy in time. Currently, the treatment of these patients is conducted with the expensive preparation of Cerliponase - alpha (brineura), which is a purified human enzyme obtained through recombinant DNA technology. Brineura is a recombinant human tripeptidyl peptidase-1 (rhTPP1), the main function of which is the cleavage of the N-terminal tripeptides of a wide range of protein substrates. With the example of this family, the dynamics of clinical manifestations in a child with NCL has been demonstrated in detail, and the algorithm of the medical action aimed at leveling off the serious neurological deficit has been shown.

Authors: Xie Fang
Published: October 2021

Objective:To explore the analgesic effect of ultrasonic electrical stimulation for recent pain after minimally invasive interventional therapy for intervertebral disc degenerative diseases (DDD). Methods:From January to August 2019, 130 patients with DDD who were treated by minimally invasive intervention of intervertebral disc, and then were randomly divided into electrical stimulation group and conservative treatment group. After minimally invasive intervention, the electrical stimulation group was treated by ultrasonic electrical stimulation once a day for 7 days. The conservative treatment group was treated with conventional acupuncture and massage once a day for 3 days.The pain degree of before treatment and 3 days, 7 days and 1 month(m) after treatment were evaluated by pain numberical rating scale (NRS), the curative effect of 1 m post-cure was evaluated by NRS weighting method. Results:There was no significant difference of NRS score between the two groups before treatment (P > 0.05). NRS of electrical stimulation group were significant lower than those in conservative treatment group, which was evaluated at several time point for 3 days, 7 days and one month after treatment (P < 0.001). The curative effect of electrical stimulation group on one month after interventional treatment was significantly higher than that of conservative treatment group (P < 0.001). Conclusion:The therapeutic effect of ultrasonic electrical stimulation is better than that of traditional acupuncture and massage for recent pain after minimally invasive interventional therapy with DDD, it is worthy to popularize in clinical treatment. Key words: After interventional therapy with DDD; The recent pain; ultrasonic electrical stimulation
Muliple Sclerosis, Corpus Callosum & Epilepsy

There is a difference in prevalence of Epilepsy in General population & MS patients. Interical Epileptiform Discharges (IED) positivity in EEG is also different in the above two populations. Demyelination slows down the conduction speed of axons and author is proposing that different speed of conduction in adjacent axons can generate re-entrant circuits. If the reentrant circuits involve Corpus callosum (CC) fibers, seizure activities of MS can be triggered. DBS applied to CC can terminate the seizure attack of MS like Vagal Nerve Simulator (VNS) in terminating seizure in general population.
Is Excessive Intake of Kamias Fruit (Averrhoa bilimbi) Bad for Your Heath? A Case Report and Review
Authors: Chiang Myra
Published: October 2021

Averrhoa bilimbi belongs to the Oxalidacea family of fruits. It was introduced from tropical America but is now pantropic and is cultivated in many Asian countries including the Philippines. Its nutritional and medicinal values are well known, however, due to its high oxalate content, excessive intake can lead to acute kidney injury (AKI). We report a case of AKI after ingestion of kamias (Averrhoa bilimbi) juice. Consent was granted by the patient to share her case with the intent of raising public awareness regarding the dangers of consuming high quantity of Averrhoa bilimbi fruit.
Gut Microbiome and Social Determinants of Health (SDOH)
Authors: Kumari Suneeta
Published: October 2021

With technological advancements in the medical field, new discoveries have been unfolded about the human microbiota. A tremendous amount of work has been studied within the last two decades. Some of the human microbiota sites include nonsterile areas such as mouth, skin, gut, nose, and vagina. Additionally, there are bacterial cells in areas that were considered sterile such as lungs and placenta before delivery. Out of all the sites, the gut houses the most with an amount of 100 trillion bacteria (Guinane, 2013). Environmental implications have been known to impact these new areas of medicine. There has been a growing interest by the social epidemiologists on how health inequalities impact the role of human gut microbiota.
May be Urinary Excretion of α2-macroglobulin (MW 720 kDa) a Proteinuric Marker of Podocytopathy? Insight from Analysis of 204 Patients with Glomerulonephritis (GN) and Nephrotic Syndrome, 177 with Functional Outcome
Authors: Bazzi Claudio
Published: October 2021

Background: In IgAN with cellular crescents (CIgAN) urinary excretion of α2-macroglobulin (α2m/C, MW 720 kDa) may be a marker of podocytes damage induced by crescents. The purpose of the study was the evaluation of the clinical significance of α2m/C excretion in 177 patients with glomerulonephritis (GN), nephrotic syndrome (NS) and functional outcome. Methods: In all 177 patients α2m/C excretion was measured; the patients were divided in 2 groups: α2mC=0 (n. 72) and α2m/C >0 (n. 105); for each group were assessed the outcomes considered in combination: Remission & persistent nephrotic syndrome (PNS) with long lasting NRF designed “Remission & NRF”; ESRD & eGFR < 50% & PNS with CRF designed “Progression and progression risk”. Results: In 72 patients with α2m/C=0 “Remission & NRF” was 78% and “Progression & progression risk” was 22%; in 105 patients with α2m/C>0 “remission & NRF” was 52% and “Progression & progression risk” was 48%. “Remission & NRF” in each GN type with α2m/C=0 was: 100% in MCD and LN; 82%, 79%, 67% in FSGS, IMN, MPGN; in α2m/C>0 “Progression and progression risk” was 0%, 38%, 46%, 54%, 56%, 85% in MCD, LN, IMN, MPGN, FSGS, CIgAN with cellular crescents, respectively. Conclusion: Urinary excretion of α2m is a very simple marker available in all clinical practice laboratories, marker of damage of podocytes at least in CIgAN and LN with crescents and marker of GFB damage in different GN types and useful to predict outcome and treatment responsiveness.

How We Understand Aeromobility
Authors: Zuskáčová Veronika
Published: October 2021

Ever since the term “aeromobility” was first used in the early 2000s as a parallel to automobility, it has developed into a multilayered concept and even an individual field of research. Yet, the meanings ascribed to the terms “aeromobility,” “aeromobilities,” or “aeromobile” vary significantly depending on the scale, context, and approach of particular studies and their authors. Using elements of discourse analysis, the article explores these meanings across a wide range of academic publications and identifies four main discourses of aeromobility in mobility studies. These are the mobility-system, the norm, the embodied practice, and the lifestyle discourse. While synthesizing the different discourses, their contributions, biases and possible future routings, the article intends to inspire more abstract thinking about aeromobility and offers several suggestions to open it up as a concept with socio-cultural implications.
