IMPACT OF TOBACCO EXCISE ON SECTORAL OUTPUT AND GROSS INCOME OF INDONESIA : AN APPLICATION OF INPUT OUTPUT ANALYSIS
Authors: Pramesti Riza Indah , Gravitiani Evi
Published: July 2023

(Excise on Tobacco Products (CHT) as the largest contributor to the Indonesian economy when compared to other excisable goods reaches 96% so it is considered quite effective to improve the country's economy. CHT has increased every year with the aim of controlling the negative impact of cigarette consumption and relaxing the success of the High Risk Excise Control (PBHT) in eradicating illegal cigarettes. This study aims to analyze the impact of the CHT increase on sectoral output and Gross Domestic Product. The method of analysis in this study is Input-Output using the 2010 IO table (updated in 2019). The classification of the Input Output table is 185 sectors and aggregated into 21 sectors. The analysis in this study is multiplier analysis, distribution and linkage. The result is that the increase in CHT on the tobacco product processing industry has no impact on the national economy as a whole, so it is better for the CHT increase regulation to remain in effect. The government must supervise related parties in the production of the cigarette industry so that fraud does not occur if the CHT increase is still in effect.

Letak penting pembentukan karakter dalam film animasi adalah agar karakter tersebut berkesan hidup dan bernyawa. Animasi sendiri memiliki arti hasrat, keinginan atau minat namun bukan hanya sekedar menggerakkan objek-objeknya, tapi juga bagaimana agar objek tersebut berkesan hidup dan bernyawa.Pembentukan karakter tidak hanya meliputi desain karakter secara visual, tetapi juga pengembangan sifat dan kepribadiannya. Dalam industri animasi, karakter yang menarik dan konsisten dapat meningkatkan kualitas animasi dan membuatnya lebih menarik bagi penonton. Tulisan ini mengulas karakter Si Juki dalam film animasi “Si Juki The Movie: Panitia Hari Akhir” yang diawali dari serial komik karya Faza Meonk. Dari hasil analisis dengan metode deskriptif kualitatif diperoleh bahwa karakter Si Juki memenuhi prinsip “Appeal” sebagai bagian dari prinsip dasar animasi, berkat keunikan dan daya pikat Si Juki, yang terlihat dari siluetnya, bentuk dasar atau geometri desain karakternya, serta pewarnaan yang berkaitan dengan sifat dan kepribadiannya. Keberhasilan animasi dengan demikian tidak hanya ditentukan oleh faktor tema cerita yang dekat dengan target audiens, melainkan juga dari segi desain karakternya.

Transformation digitale et performance des PME : une analyse bibliométrique pour comprendre et agir
Authors: Saoudi Lynda , Aubry Mathilde , Gomot Timothée , Renaud Alexandre
Published: July 2023

Si la littérature académique sur la transformation digitale des entreprises s’est largement développée ces dernières années, les auteurs se sont, pour la plupart, concentrés sur les grandes entreprises sans prendre en compte la recherche sur les petites et moyennes entreprises (PME). Pourtant, celles-ci, d’après le ministère de l’Économie, représentent 24 % de la valeur ajoutée de l’ensemble des entreprises françaises et disposent d’une marge de progression importante en termes de digitalisation. De plus, les outils digitaux semblent intervenir dans la performance des PME. Ces dernières méritent d’être analysées spécifiquement afin que soient pris en compte leurs particularités et leurs enjeux propres, par exemple, leur manque de moyens financiers et humains. Nous nous interrogeons sur l’existence d’une communauté de recherche structurée autour de la transformation digitale et de la performance des PME. Une étude bibliométrique (ACC, analyse de cocitations ; ACB, analyse de couplage bibliographique), partant de la littérature traitant conjointement de la transformation digitale et de la performance des PME, a été menée. Elle poursuit trois objectifs principaux : comprendre comment et sur quelles bases s’est construite la littérature académique sur le sujet, structurer la recherche existante en identifiant ses apports, mais aussi ses limites et enfin, faire ressortir des voies de recherches futures.
Proposer un accompagnement médico-social par la géographie : identifier, analyser et stimuler les relations entre individu et environnement
Authors: Escuriet Meddy
Published: July 2023

Cet article vise à présenter un dispositif méthodologique déployé en France dans le cadre d’un travail de thèse en géographie réalisé en immersion dans une association qui accompagne des personnes ayant subi des lésions cérébrales (LADAPT Puy-de-Dôme à Clermont-Ferrand). Pouvant être physiques, sensorielles, psycho-comportementales ou cognitives, les conséquences d’une lésion cérébrale sont multiples et différentes en fonction des individus. Affectant la capacité des personnes à construire des images mentales de l’espace, elles se traduisent souvent par des sentiments de stress et d’anxiété qu’elles éprouvent dans des environnements qu’elles maitrisent mal. Construit à partir d’une approche environnementale et situationnelle du handicap, le dispositif méthodologique déployé dans le cadre de cette thèse s’articule autour de deux outils principaux : les entretiens et les ateliers cartographiques. Alors que les entretiens cartographiques ont permis de comprendre le rapport que les personnes accompagnées entretiennent avec leurs espaces quotidiens, les ateliers cartographiques ont été construits dans le but de stimuler leur perception de l’environnement. Ces derniers, mis en place à la suite de l’emménagement de l’association dans de nouveaux locaux situés dans un autre quartier de Clermont-Ferrand ont pris la forme de plusieurs activités. En partant de l’hypothèse que le nouveau quartier d’implantation de l’association ferait l’objet, chez les personnes accompagnées d’une image mentale mal définie et serait générateur de mal-être, le but de cette démarche était de leur proposer des exercices cartographiques et spatiaux afin de renforcer leur maîtrise spatiale du secteur.
Heteroactivism, Homonationalism and National Projects
Authors: Boulila Stefanie C. , Browne Kath
Published: July 2023

Oppositions and reactions to contestations of the hetero-patriarchal order are becoming a main site of engagement for feminist and queer activism and scholarship. Yet further spatial and intersectional attention to these oppositions, dubbed “anti-gender politics”, is needed to move beyond single-issue analyses of their geographical ‘placings’. This special issue seeks to develop geographical analyses of such contestations by situating them within nationalisms and racial politics. The papers in this special issue develop the concept of heteroactivism to deliver conceptual and empirical insights into the spatialities of oppositions and resistances against gender and sexual equalities that are manifest as part of broader racial and national projects.
New Skin for an Old Ceremony
Authors: Rothschild Leehee
Published: July 2023

This article employs heteroactivism as a frame of analysis to examine recent shifts in resistances to gender and sexual equalities in Israel. Using ethnographic, visual, and textual methods, I examine as case studies the oppositions to two academic conferences, Issues in Therapy with Polyamory and Queer Utopias, that were both held at Bar Ilan University in 2019. The oppositions, which were led by three organisations affiliated with the Religious Zionist public (Leeba; Shovrot Shivion; Boharim Bamishpacha) reveal how Israeli heteroactivist discourses invoke familism, pro-natalism, religious sentiments, Zionist narratives, and collective trauma, in their attempts to recentralise the heteronormative Jewish family. LGBT equality in Israel has been achieved through legislative court-rulings, instead of being legally secured by the parliament, as it was in other countries previously explored by research on heteroactivsim. Nevertheless, this article shows, how this quasi-equality, combined with public sentiments of growing acceptance, induced by homonationalist and homonormative trends, sufficed to create a fertile ground for heteroactivist resistances. Through a discussion of the symbolic meaning of Bar Ilan University as an academic institution, affiliated with the Religious Zionist public, this article also illustrates how heteroactivist resistances may be embedded in specific localities and events, and not just on grand national campaigns.
La innovación social en la economía social y su fomento en un entorno regional. El caso del Principado de Asturias
Authors: Álvarez González Luis Ignacio , Coque Martínez Jorge , Sanzo Pérez María José
Published: July 2023

El objetivo del presente trabajo es indagar si la innovación social ha arraigado en las últimas dos décadas en el sector de la economía social del Principado de Asturias (España) como un factor de fomento empresarial clave en el actual entorno de incertidumbre marcado por sucesivas crisis financieras, sanitarias y geopolíticas. Para ello, se define conceptualmente, en primer lugar, qué se entiende por innovación social y sus dimensiones básicas, reflexionando sobre en qué medida el sector de la economía social puede ser considerado como innovador en lo social. Tras ello, se presenta la metodología y los principales resultados de un estudio realizado mediante una revisión de la literatura especializada y un análisis cualitativo mediante entrevistas en profundidad a una muestra de 21 responsables de empresas, instituciones o entes corporativos vinculados al sector en Asturias. Dichos resultados muestran cómo, efectivamente, los principios de la innovación social empiezan a ser adoptados por el sector, aunque sea de un modo incipiente como consecuencia de distintas debilidades asociadas con su grado de emprendimiento, estructura organizativa y estrategia de desarrollo. El trabajo finaliza sugiriendo una serie de medidas que podrían contribuir a la promoción del sector en su conjunto y de las empresas que lo configuran.
Resiliencia económica regional y economía solidaria. El caso de Colombia
Authors: Salazar Villano Fabián Enrique , Castillo Caicedo Maribel , Gómez Mejía Alina
Published: July 2023

Los estudios sobre crecimiento económico han tratado el concepto de resiliencia para denotar la capacidad de una economía de resistir y retornar a sus niveles de desempeño (en términos de PIB o tasa de ocupación) luego de experimentar un choque exógeno adverso. En esta dirección, la literatura ha acudido a los clásicos determinantes del crecimiento –entre otros, ingreso, inversión en capital físico, nivel de capital humano y social– para entender dicho proceso, no obstante, el rol de la economía solidaria en la relación de resistencia / recuperación de las economías regionales no ha recibido suficiente tratamiento, lo que constituye una brecha en la teoría y el análisis de política pública. El artículo pretende, por tanto, dar sustento a la inclusión de la economía solidaria en la explicación de la resiliencia económica regional, en semejanza al uso del capital social en modelos convencionales de crecimiento. Para ello se acude al caso de Colombia, en tanto economía emergente, y se estiman dos modelos de panel con información de tres periodos de tiempo dentro del horizonte 1999-2019 que contextualizan la discusión. Finalmente, se deja una medida de resiliencia económica en el sector solidario de este país, y algunas consideraciones teóricas, metodológicas y de política pública.

Recognizing the early signs of cancer risk is vital for informing prevention, early detection, and survival. To investigate whether changes in circulating metabolites characterise the early stages of colorectal cancer (CRC) development, we examined associations between a genetic risk score (GRS) associated with CRC liability (72 single nucleotide polymorphisms) and 231 circulating metabolites measured by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (N=6,221). Linear regression models were applied to examine associations between genetic liability to colorectal cancer and circulating metabolites measured in the same individuals at age 8, 16, 18 and 25 years. The GRS for CRC was associated with up to 28% of the circulating metabolites at FDR-P<0.05 across all time points, particularly with higher fatty acids and very-low- and low-density lipoprotein subclass lipids. Two-sample reverse Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses investigating CRC liability (52,775 cases, 45,940 controls) and metabolites measured in a random subset of UK Biobank participants (N=118,466, median age 58y) revealed broadly consistent effect estimates with the GRS analysis. In conventional (forward) MR analyses, genetically predicted polyunsaturated fatty acid concentrations were most strongly associated with higher CRC risk. These analyses suggest that higher genetic liability to CRC can cause early alterations in systemic metabolism, and suggest that fatty acids may play an important role in CRC development.

The European cranberry (Vaccinium oxycoccus L., syn. Oxycoccus palustris Pers.) has a wide geographical distribution in natural bogs of Europe, Asia, and North America. The American cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton, syn. Oxycoccus macrocarpos (Aiton) Pursh) is more easily cultivated in the northern regions of the world and is therefore an available source of bioactive compounds. They are both rich in polyphenolic compounds (i.e., flavonoids, anthocyanins, and phenolic acids), which have significant antioxidant and anti-immflamatory properties. The cranberry fruits and their preparations represent important natural preservatives used against bacterial and fungal pathogens. Heritage related to its usage refers to the cranberry as a food plant and multiuse ethnomedical remedy. The results of the modern phytochemical and pharmaceutical research suggest using cranberry against urinary tract infections and as a preventive or curing plant against many other diseases. Today there are many new opportunities to draw attention to this plant, including cranberry tourism. In food and pharmaceutical industry the fruits are used most often, but leaves are also rich in biologically active substances, which can be sources for creating new medicines.
Introduction: Affective Mires in Contemporary Culture
Authors:   University of Eastern Finland, Laurén Kirsi , Kaukio Virpi ,   University of Eastern Finland, Latvala-Harvilahti Pauliina ,   University of Eastern Finland
Published: July 2023

The word ‘mire’ in English means “an area of deep, wet, sticky earth” (see Cambridge Dictionary). The dictionary defines mire by its character and also by the affective way it is perceived and sensed by people when entering and moving around in it. Mires are special natural areas that have determined how people have learned and adapted to live in them in different cultures and eras. This special thematic issue on mire cultures explores the changing cultural practices and values associated with mires in the modern day, and further, their effects on the cultural heritage of mires for the future. During the current time of climate change and eco-crisis, people’s attitudes and ways of thinking about mires and nature in general have changed, with a greater emphasis being placed on more-than-human aspects. Human-mire relationships are processes that are shaped by changes in culture and society, and also by the experiences of individuals (Laurén et al. 2022). They include various activities that reflect the emotions, attitudes, knowledge and values of individuals and communities. In our research, the intangible cultural heritage is seen to be based on values, where mires are regarded as culturally significant natural areas and living organisms (see Poulios 2014). From the perspective of living heritage, it is essential that communities constantly recreate their traditions in relation to their environment, and in interaction with nature and their own history. Our research shows that the importance of mires is reflected in the transformation of cultural heritage for communities and acting on mires is part of people’s self-expression and identity, and there is a desire to pass on different forms of mire traditions not only into the future but also within generations. The studies presented in this special thematic issue aim to find answers to the following questions: What is the cultural heritage of mires in the twenty-first century? How has it changed since the past times? Are there signs of a changing relationship arising between humans and mires in the future?
Implementing a Pediatric Resident Physician/Bedside Nurse Shadow Program to Improve Interprofessional Collaboration and Understanding, and to Transform Practice
Authors: Allen Chelsea , Dieu LaDon , Kushnir Anna , Watt Sarah , Bhavaraju Vasudha L.
Published: July 2023

INTRODUCTION Resident physician/nurse collaboration is essential for patient safety and optimal clinical outcomes. Interprofessional shadowing experiences can facilitate understanding of team roles; however, enhanced understanding may not transform individual practices leading to workplace improvement. This educational innovation utilized a resident/nurse shadow program to raise awareness of interprofessional roles and as a needs assessment to identify and educate about specific system-wide standards that can lead residents to transform their practices to improve nurse workflow. METHODS From 2018-2020, 44 first-year pediatric residents at a free-standing children’s hospital shadowed nine nurse preceptors. Each nurse received an orientation and checklist of topics to cover. Residents observed nursing responsibilities including admissions, line placement and medication administration. All participants completed pre-post surveys. RESULTS Post-surveys demonstrated a statistically significant improvement (p<.00001) in Likert scores of residents’ self-rated understanding of nursing cares and workflow. The experience uncovered three system-wide scheduling standards where resident modification of ordering practices could optimize nursing workflow: timing of morning lab draws, new medication administration, and delivery of dietary formula. The shadow program was modified to include education in these three areas and participants had statistically significant (p<.01) increased knowledge of timing of morning labs and new medication administration (35% and 39% improvement, respectively). Nurse understanding of resident workflow was not measured due to limited data.DISCUSSION A resident/nurse shadow program successfully improved resident awareness of nursing roles and was an innovative way to identify specific areas of workflow improvement. Program modifications are required to create a true, bidirectional, resident/nurse interprofessional shadow experience.
Behavioral responses of different reproductive statuses and sexes in Hermetia illucens (L) adults to different attractants
Authors: Laksanawimol Parichart , Singsa Sukdee , Thancharoen Anchana
Published: July 2023

Background

The odor of various fermented organic materials acts as an attractant for oviposition by gravid females of the black soldier fly (BSF) to find larval food sources. Females display oviposition site selection on various organic materials, but little work has been done on the response to substrate attractants under caged conditions similar to those in a BSF farm production system.

Methods

Fifty of each reproductive status (mated and virgin) and sex (males and females) of BSF adults were marked and then exposed to one of five different oviposition attractants in a transparent acrylic chamber: no substrate (control) plus pineapple, mixed vegetables, okara, and fermented fish to represent fruit-, vegetable-, plant protein-, and animal protein-based substrates, respectively. The frequency of the perching activity on the oviposition apparatus and flying behavior under the LED illumination, including the laid egg weight, were recorded.

Results

The sexually-related activities of BSF adults were clearly observed. A majority of the females preferred to perch on the oviposition apparatus and fly around the illuminated area compared to the very low activities of the mated males. The BSF adults displayed different behavioral responses to the different tested attractants. While active flying was common when using plant protein- and animal protein-based substrates, mated females showed the greatest perching preference for plant-based substrates (fruit and vegetables) and this correlated with the laid egg weight.

Discussion

Egg-laying was more likely to happen on the plant-based substrate than on the animal protein-based substrate. However, the strong smell of the animal protein-based substrate could strongly trigger lekking behavior, which is an important part of mating behavior. This knowledge can support egg trapping in nature and also improve the efficiency of egg production in mass-rearing facilities.

Authors: Kalra Binaydeep Singh , Dharni Khushdeep , Rathore Rakesh , Sharma Sonika
Published: July 2023

The purpose of this paper to examines awareness and attitude of consumers towards herbal products and factors affecting the adoption of herbal products. To achieve the objectives of the study, using simple random sampling a sample of 301 respondents was taken during January-March 2020. Primary data were collected electronically with the help of a pre-structured, non-disguised questionnaire. For analyzing the data, techniques such as tests for difference of means, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Factor Analysis, etc. were used. Factor analysis was used to reduce the data so as to have a better understanding and analysis. The results of the study indicate that the majority of the respondents were aware of herbal products for more than 5 years. The most important attribute while making purchase consideration of herbal products was safety followed by quality. The most prevalent problem related to herbal products was price followed by false claims. Majority of the respondents reported internet as their source of information regarding herbal products. Respondents were willing to recommend herbal products to others. Therefore, adoption of herbal products is likely to increase in the future. The findings from regression analysis reveal that purchase intention of herbal products was positively influenced by functionality and quality as well as traditional appeal of the herbal products. The respondents reported considerable intent to recommend the herbal products to friends and relatives. This means word of mouth has important role in adoption of these products.

Tomato spotted wilt, a disease caused by Groundnut bud necrosis virus (GBNV), is a major disease affecting tomatoes causing great yield loss to the farming community. In this study, the GBNV-TNAU 1 virus isolate was obtained from infected plants and maintained through mechanical transmission on cowpea cv. CO7, which induced chlorotic and necrotic local lesions by the fourth-day post-inoculation (dpi). The pathogenicity of GBNV on tomato cv. PKM1 was confirmed through sap transmission. In vitro screening of Bacillus sp. viz., B. amyloliquefaciens (Ka1), B. subtilis (Bbv 57), and B. subtilis (BST 8) demonstrated effective reduction of GBNV-induced lesions in cowpea. B. amyloliquefaciens (Ka1) and B. subtilis (BST8) displayed a maximum germination percentage of 100 %, while B. amyloliquefaciens (MM12) exhibited 83.33 %. Futhermore, maximum vigour index of 1743.8, 1699.6 & 1436.5 was noticed in B. amyloliquefaciens (Ka1), B. subtilis (BST8) & B. subtilis (Bbv 57) treated plants. These findings provide valuable insights on sustainable management strategies against the disease, benefiting farmers by enhancing tomato cultivation productivity and profitability.

The present investigation was undertaken at College of Agriculture, Shivamogga during 2018-2019 to delineate the causes for hidimundige syndrome in arecanut. Soil samples from two depths 0 to 30 cm and 30 to 60 cm were collected at 60 cm away from the trunk of arecanut from both healthy and affected gardens of Holalkere, Hiriyur, Chitradurga and Hosadurga taluks. The collected soil samples were analyzed for various physical and chemical properties and also for macro and micro nutrients. The results of the investigation indicated that soils coming under affected gardens showed the high mean clay content than healthy gardens. There was a significant increase in bulk density of affected gardens compared to healthy gardens in Holalkere (from 1.63-1.84 Mg m-3) and Hosadurga (from 1.84-1.96 Mg m-3) taluk at lower depth. Whereas, the drainable porosity decreased significantly in affected gardens compared to healthy gardens of Holalkere (from 33.54-25.69 %) and Hosadurga (from 25.79-21.23 %) taluk at lower depth. In all taluks, majority of the soils from both healthy and affected arecanut gardens were neutral to alkaline in reaction. The study showed that availability of N, P, K, S, Fe, Mn, Cu and B and also the content of exchangeable Ca and Mg was quite heterogeneous in both healthy and affected gardens. Whereas, available zinc status in the soil showed significant decrease in affected gardens compared to healthy gardens of Hiriyur, Chitradurga and Holalkere taluks.

The application of Mathematical models in simulating processes that are biological in nature has been in effect for a long time. A great number of Mathematical, Computational, Engineering and Physical approaches have been administered to several aspects of development of Tumor, with a view of appreciating how cancer cell population responds to medical intervention. This research therefore considered a Mathematical model for the consequences of incubation and Chemotherapy on Tumor growth dynamics by formulating a deterministic S (susceptible), E (exposed), I (infectious), R (recovered) model using Delay differential equations. The Delay in this case accounted for the duration between the subjection of a cell to cancer virus and the onset of symptomatic disease. Reproduction number (R0) of the model was ascertained using next generation matrix approach. The stability analysis of Cancer Free Equilibrium Point (CFEP) of the model was investigated. MATLAB computer program was used for numerical simulations to validate the analytic results. The investigation and analysis of the consequences of incubation and Chemotherapy on the stability of the equilibrium point was also done. This study of Tumor growth dynamics is significant in that it shall help establish the stage and the extent of cancer spread within the body cells. It shall also help develop a better drug administration procedure as well as providing mechanistic insights. Parameter values used were mostly estimated values. From the numerical analysis, our findings suggest that CFEP is stable when R0 is 0.6667 otherwise unstable.
Optimal Configuration of Reactive Power in Distribution Network with Power Electronic Transformer
Authors: Zhang Can , Ma Sixiang
Published: July 2023

Traditional means of reactive power regulation are limited to adjusting the ratio of the On-Load Tap Changer or changing the access position of the reactive power compensation device and its access capacity. In order to save the cost of putting in reactive power compensation devices, this paper proposes to use the characteristics of the reactive power output function on both sides of the power electronic transformer to regulate the system reactive power distribution. For this purpose, a reactive power optimization model including distributed power supplies and power electronic transformers is constructed with the objectives of minimizing voltage excursions, maximizing voltage stability margins and minimizing active losses in the network. At the same time, based on the characteristics of decision variables, cross-feedback hybrid optimization algorithm is used to solve different types of variables, and an improved wolf pack algorithm using Tent chaotic map and Levy flight strategy is proposed to improve the solution efficiency of the algorithm. The experimental results conclude that the proposed model and algorithm are valid, and the algorithm has significant advantages in terms of model solution time and global search capability when compared with the traditional Wolf Pack algorithms and Particle Swarm Optimization algorithms.

Smart power outlet yang sebelumnya dibuat oleh Felix Thamrin mempunyai fitur pemantauan daya yang belum optimal, dimana proses penghitungan daya yang dilakukan hanya memanfaatkan sensor arus. Pembuatan tugas akhir ini dimaksudkan untuk membuat smart power outlet dengan fitur pemantauan daya yang sudah memanfaatkan sensor tegangan dan sensor arus, serta penambahan fitur penghitungan biaya. Smart power outlet terdiri dari beberapa komponen utama seperti mikrokontroler NodeMCU, modul sensor tegangan ZMPT101B, modul sensor arus ACS712. Dari beban yang terpasang, data berupa tegangan dan arus akan dibaca oleh sensor dan dikirimkan menuju mikrokontroler untuk dilakukan penghitungan. Hasil pengitungan akan dikirimkan melalui jaringan internet dan ditampilkan pada aplikasi Blynk pada smartphone pengguna. Smart power outlet juga dilengkapi dengan fitur lain seperti timer, alarm, dan penghitungan biaya. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian, seluruh fitur pada smart power outlet dapat berjalan dengan baik. Kontrol secara manual, fitur timer dan alarm berjalan dengan baik dan responsif. Fitur pemantauan daya masih belum akurat dengan eror terbesar mencapai 80%, sedangkan pada fitur penghitungan biaya terdapat eror terbesar mencapai 8%.
