OBJECTIVE

To compare results for initial body-mounted inertial sensor (BMIS) measurement of lameness in equids trotting in a straight line with definitive findings after full lameness evaluation.

ANIMALS

1,224 equids.

PROCEDURES

Lameness measured with BMIS equipment while trotting in a straight line was classified into categories of none, forelimb only, hind limb only, and 8 patterns of combined forelimb and hind limb lameness (CFHL). Definitive findings after full lameness evaluation were established in most horses and classified into types (no lameness, forelimb- or hind limb–only lameness, CFHL, or lameness not localized to the limbs). Observed proportions of lameness type in equids with definitive findings for each initial BMIS-assessed category were compared with hypothetical expected proportions through χ2 goodness-of-fit analysis.

RESULTS

The most common initial BMIS-assessed lameness category was CFHL (693/1,224 [56.6%]), but this was the least common definitive finding (94/ 862 [10.9%]). The observed frequency of no lameness after full lameness evaluation was greater than expected only when initial BMIS measurements indicated no lameness. The observed frequency of forelimb-only lameness was greater than expected when initially measured as forelimb-only lameness and for CFHL categories consistent with the diagonal movement principle of compensatory lameness. Observed frequency of hind limb–only lameness was greater than expected when initially measured as hind limb–only lameness and for CFHL categories consistent with the sagittal movement principle of compensatory lameness. Equids initially assessed as having no lameness had the highest (103/112 [92%]) and those assessed as CFHL pattern 7 (forelimb with contralateral hind limb impact-only lameness) had the lowest (36/66 [55%]) rates of definitive findings.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE

In equids, results of initial straight-line trotting evaluations with a BMIS system did not necessarily match definitive findings but may be useful in planning the remaining lameness evaluation.

The 4.0 of industrial revolution had a considerable impact on the advancement of media and information technology. The flow of information that can no longer be dammed causes anyone, as a media user, to be ready and have a filter to use it. The impact of the media has a great influence on the younger generation. The ease of access makes this media an inseparable important part of adolescents, including teenagers in Pekanbaru City. However, in today’s reality not a few teenagers who are trapped in the nature of access. This phenomenon is of concern to researchers to find out how media literacy experiences among teenagers in Pekanbaru City by Individual Competence Framework. Adolescents referred to in this study are students who sit in the Senior High School in the City of Pekanbaru, which is a representation of the teenagers. The research method used is qualitative with a phenomenological approach. The results of this study indicate that media literacy experience in adolescents in Pekanbaru city is a three level of adolescent, there are: technical skills at the medium level, and critical understanding at the basic level. At the level of non-formal education, adolescents barely get it from the family, but instead get it from the peergroup.

EVALUACIÓN DE LA REGULACIÓN EN ANDALUCÍA A TRAVÉS DEL ÍNDICE DE CALIDAD DE LA REGULACIÓN (ICR). (2013-2016)
Authors: Martinez Fernandez Ignacio , Riscos Gómez José Félix , Palma Martos Luis
Published: February 2020

La intervención del sector público en la economía de las sociedades desarrolladas se articula fundamentalmente a través de la regulación. Por ello, una regulación económica de calidad, con normas eficientes, trámites simplificados e instituciones eficaces, se convierte en un factor central del funcionamiento óptimo de las actividades productivas y, por tanto, del crecimiento y el desarrollo económico.El objetivo del presente trabajo es elaborar un índice para evaluar la calidad de la regulación económica en Andalucía. Para cumplir este objetivo se construye un índice de naturaleza híbrida, que combina datos objetivos, con otros de naturaleza subjetiva. La parte objetiva del índice incorpora 11 componentes, con datos procedentes de los indicadores “Doing Business”, elaborados por el Banco Mundial y la Contabilidad Nacional de España (INE). La parte subjetiva, que cuenta con otros 6 componentes, se basa en los resultados del Indicador de Confianza Empresarial elaborado por el Instituto Nacional de Estadística y el Instituto de Estadística y Cartografía de Andalucía. El índice toma valores ente -1 (máxima restricción) y 1(mínima restricción).El trabajo contribuye a refinar la metodología de elaboración de estos tipos de índices al combinar elementos objetivos y subjetivos, a diferencia, por ejemplo, del European Quality of Government Index (EQI), o el Product Market Regulation (OCDE), que solo incorporan datos subjetivos.Como resultado a destacar, el estudio concluye que el marco regulador en  Andalucía, en el periodo objeto de estudio, ha evolucionado hacia un menor grado de restricción, alcanzando en 2016 un valor de -0.1339, frente a -0.1470 en 2013.  Asimismo, se observa un proceso de convergencia con relación al índice nacional.
White Collar Crime in Republice of Macedonia in the Period 2008-2017 (from the prism of sociological explanations)
Authors: Abduli Ardita , Mehmedi Drita
Published: February 2020

Considering that the Republic of Macedonia in the last fifteen years is governed by a political administration with non-functional democracy where the power for so long stood in the hands of a party coalition (VMRO-DPMNE / DUI), who created obedience to the masses for eternal leaders by embarrassing the state in the corner of liberty and legitimacy, and thus overthrowing the system of democratic values.For this reason, this study will examine crime, corruption and other misconducts in state institutions of the Republic of Macedonia by official persons in the period 2008-2017. The study will be elaborated from a sociological perspective based on sociological paradigms that explain deviance and crime in society, focusing on the narrative methodology through which we will professionally review the cases of crime and corruption by state authorities. Among other things, this paper will also examine the consequences that society suffers from abuses of state leadership by governing for a decade.
Radical Right-Wing Politics and Migrants and Refugees in Hungary
Authors: Vadhanavisala Onvara
Published: February 2020

Radical right-wing politics and ultra-nationalism have always been important issue across Europe's political spectrum. However, the recent flourishing of right-wing and populist parties in Europe in the past couple years were provoked by the European migrants and refugee crisis. The European institutions fail to solve the crisis. We witnessed various terrorist attacks occurred in major cities in Europe such as Paris, Berlin, and Italy etc. This had led not only the European people but all over the world to grow more suspicious of the EU institutions and their capabilities to manage the incident. As a consequence, the radical right-wing nationalist and right-wing political parties in Europe have taken this opportunity to claim and run their campaigns on a strong anti-refugees and immigrants. As a result, right-wing politicians and parties tend to gain more popularity among voters and achieved electoral success in many European countries such as Marine Le Pen in France, Andrej Babiš in Czech Republic, the Freedom Party (FPÖ) in Austria, Viktor Orbán's Fidesz party in Hungary and elsewhere in Europe. These right-wing nationalists and political parties represent themselves as a defender of European Christian values, the protector of Europe, the savior of Christianity. They are working in every way to prevent the land of Europe from Muslims. This kind of rhetoric is spreading across Europe and developed as an anti-refugee/immigrant campaign which can be seen in both online and offline media especially in the case of Hungary. It has signified as a backlash against the political establishment and a wave of discontent. Furthermore, the rise of right-wing politics has created concerns over human rights, national identity, refugee and migrant issues.
Tax Revenue and Nigeria Economic Growth
Authors: Onoja Eneche Emmanuel , Stephen Ibrahim Ademu
Published: February 2020

This study examines the relationship between Tax Revenue and Nigeria Economic Growth. In order to achieve this objective, data was gathered through secondary means. Tax Revenue is proxy by Petroleum Profit Tax, Value Added Tax and Companies Income Tax, while Economic Growth is proxy by Gross Domestic Product. Data collected were analyzed with the aid of the Stata computer software. The study revealed that Petroleum Profit Tax (oil tax revenue) has a positive but no significant relationship with Nigeria Economic Growth, while Value Added Tax and Companies Income Tax (non-oil Tax Revenue) have significant relationship with Nigeria Economic Growth. The study recommends that government should minimize the wide spread corruption and leakages prevalent in tax administration in Nigeria, and transparently and judiciously account for tax revenue generated through the provision of more quality public goods and services, and need not to increase the rates of Value Added Tax and Companies Income Tax in the short run, but to closely monitor the operations of companies engaged in petroleum operations to minimize tax evasion, and as well as support the development of entrepreneurial activities in order to significantly increase Tax Revenue so as to sustain the significant relationship of VAT and CIT (non-oil tax) revenue with Nigeria Economic Growth.
Electrochemiluminescent Detection of hNQO1 and Associated Drug Screening Enabled by Futile Redox Cycle Reaction
Authors: ZHENG Yongjun , Ning Zhenqiang , Pan Deng , Han Dan , Xu Yuan , Liu Songqin , Shen Yanfei , Zhang Yuanjian
Published: February 2020

Human NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (hNQO1), a proteinase that engages in detoxification of quinones and capable of activating anti-tumor drugs, has drawn increasing attention as tumor biomarker and drug target. To date, the detection of hNQO1 primarily uses stimulus-responsive probes, involving metabolization of synthetic quinone-functionalized substrates, which however, remain challenging to improve the sensing signal-to-noise ratio, and are lack of sufficient stability. Herein, we report a facile but general way for hNQO1 detection and associated drug screening as well by ECL sensing of the metabolic H2O2 enabled by futile redox cycle reaction. Taking advantage of the intrinsic circulatory amplification and the luminol-modified nickel foam electrode, the sensing system exhibited a record-level performance in electrochemiluminescent detection of hNQO1. The same strategy was also successfully applied to rapidly screening hNQO1-directed anti-tumor candidate drugs. The proposed new principle for hNQO1 detection would stimulate ECL as a promising tool that combines diagnostic and drug screening functions for the popularization of proteinases in cancer management.

In this manuscript, we evidenced for the first time proteogenic like peptide sequences in meteorite thanks to an original stereoselective enzymatic hydrolysis. Within this framework, we have first characterised the amino acids content of two meteorites, Murchison and Allende, after the standard acid hydrolysis protocol currently used in astronomical studies. To reach this goal, we have developed a highly sensitive chiral LC-MS method and we have highlighted new l- and d-enantiomers, never detected before in both meteorites. These primary findings extend the list of amino acids already found in meteorites. We next investigated the presence of proteogenic like peptide sequences. For that, we have compared the amounts of amino acids l- and d-enantiomers released from either the standard acid hydrolysis or our stereoselective peptidase hydrolysis. Thanks to this strategy, we have highlighted the presence of peptide sequences involving proteogenic l-amino acids in the Murchison together with their absence in Allende, which is consistent with the respective organic content of both meteorites. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the peptide sequences were indigenous to the Murchison meteorite.

Published: February 2020

A stability-indicating HPLC technique has been developed and validated for Quercetin and Rutin under different stability environments of acid, base, neutral, oxidative, and photolytic degradation. The stability study were executed according to the ICH guidelines. The separation was accomplished utilizing Phenomenex Luna C18 (250 x 4.6mm i.d, 5µ) column at a detection wavelength of 259 nm utilizing the mobile phase established of 20mM Ammonium acetate (pH 3.0) and  acetonitrile 60: 40, v/v at the flow rate of 1.0 ml/min and injection volume of 20 µl. The linearity of the developed technique was obtained over the range of 1-5 µg/ml and 0.1-0.5 µg/ml for Quercetin and Rutin, respectively, with a correlation coefficient of more than 0.99. Further, the stress degradation studies were performed for which the results obtained stated that Quercetin and Rutin were more susceptible to acidic and oxidative conditions. The developed method provides good sensitivity and excellent reproducibility and can be further used to study the stability in formulations.
PENDEKATAN HOLISTIK (HOLISTIC APPROACH) SEBAGAI UPAYA EFEKTIF PENGENTASAN KEMISKINAN: STUDI KASUS PADA TIGA KELUARGA MISKIN

Abstrak

Berbagai program dan upaya pemerintah untuk mengurangi angka kemiskinan memang pernah digulirkan, antara lain Kredit Usaha Tani (1998) yang mencapai Rp8,4 triliun; Kredit Ketahanan Pangan (2000) yang mencapai 2,3 triliun; juga Program Pengembangan Kecamatan (PPK), Program Penanggulangan Kemiskinan di Perkotaan (P2KP) dan Jaring Pengaman Sosial.   Namun, berbagai upaya itu pun toh tak cukup signifikan mengurangi angka kemiskinan. Setidaknya, data di atas menunjukkan bahwa sejak 2002 sampai dengan 2007 angka kemiskinan tetap bertengger pada angka 16 18% sekalipun memang tinggal satu digit pada 2018.Tentu saja kita tidak boleh pesimis bahwa kemiskinan pada dasarnya memang bisa ditekan bahkan bisa dihapuskan. Muhammad Yunus, peraih Nobel Perdamaian 2006 telah membuktikannya di Bangladesh. Tetapi, melihat pengalaman selama 5 tahun terakhir, semua usaha yang dilakukan pemerintah belum memberikan hasil yang berarti.

Pertanyaan lain yang muncul, mengapa semua program yang telah menyedot triliunan biaya tersebut tidak mampu membawa dampak signifikan dalam upaya pengentasan kemiskinan? Apakah program-program tanggap darurat (emergent) semacam beras miskin (raskin) dan bantuan langsung tunai (BLT) memang merupakan pendekatan strategis untuk pengentasan kemiskinan?Makalah ini berusaha memotret apa adanya kehidupan tiga keluarga miskin masing-masing Suji (65 tahun), Harni (55 tahun) dan Subadi (61 tahun) sebagai studi kasus. Dari deskripsi apa adanya mengenai kehidupan mereka akan dilakukan analisis untuk mengetahui aspek-aspek yang terkait dengan kemiskinan mereka.

ABSTRAK
Penelitian ini berdasarkan fenomena gap yang terjadi, dimana banyaknya kinerja PNS
mengalami penurunan seperti kurang adanya kedisiplinan dalam melaksanakan tugas, dan hal
tersebut berhubungan dengan kurangnya pengawasan pemimpin, kurangnya pemahaman kepada
para karyawan untuk bekerja lebih berorientasi pada tanggungjawab dan ibadah, jika itu ditanamkan
maka akan muncul motivasi dalam diri karyawan untuk bekerja dengan baik dan benar.
Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah PNS yang bekerja dikantor kecamatan di kabupaten
Grobogan. Sampel yang diambil sebanyak 75 Responden dengan menggunakan teknik proportional
sampling.
Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa Kepemimpinan konsiderasi, Disiplin kerja,
Orientasi kerja berpengaruh positif terhadap motivasi berprestasi dan kinerja pegawai. Motivasi
berprestasi bukan merupakan variabel intervening di antara pengaruh kepemimpinan konsiderasi
dengan kinerja pegawai, disiplin kerja dengan kinerja pegawai, orientasi kerja dengan kinerja
pegawai. Sehingga tanpa adanya motivasi berprestasi tetap bisa meningkatkan kinerja dengan
memperbaiki pengawasan pemimpin terhadap bawahannya, memberikan contoh kedisiplinan
sehingga bawahan pun akan melaksanakan kedisiplinan dengan sendirinya.

Efficient public service can be achieved by private or state company, depend on the competency of the service. There are some theories explain the public service efficiency; the ownership theory, public choice theory and organization theory. In the case of PDAM (Perusahaan Daerah Air Minum - Municipal Waterworks), external and internal factors are the source of a non optimal service. External factors are: local government multi role (as operator and regulator), the double role as a company and official agency, monopolistic market, single shareholder, political driven tariff, and ineffective community control. Those external factors affect the internal PDAM such as work motivation based on sense of belonging and incentive structure, spirit of innovation, and service and customer orientation service. Therefore a clean water service regulation is required in order to get dynamic competition, tariff which support company financial condition and high efficiency followed by fair and broad scope of service.

Otel endüstrisinde hotel yöneticilerin performans düzeyi ile piyasa yönlendirilmesinde rekabet avantajı yaratmak için bilgi yönetimine odaklanmaktadır. Hem yerli hem de yabancı literatürde rekabet avantajı ve bilgi yönetimini arasındaki ilişkiyi inceleyen yeterince çalışma yapılmaması, özellikle otel endüstrisi üzerine odaklanan çalışmaların sınırlılığı dikkat çekmektedir. Bu açıdan bakıldığında, bu araştırmada elde edilecek bulgular, ilgili alana katkı sunacağından önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışma, Kuzey Kıbrıs’ta otel endüstrisinde çalışan 6 CEO ve 5 yöneticiden oluşmaktadır. Çalışmanın analizi sadece CEO'ların ve yöneticilerin cevaplarına dayandığından, nitel araştırma yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma alanındaki boşluklar, hotel performansı, rekabet avantajı, bilgi yönetimi kavramlarının otel yönetimindeki gücü ve kullanımı açısından örgütsel rolünü beraberinde getirmesidir. Araştırmanın sonucu, otel endüstrisinde rekabet avantajı yaratmada otel performansı ve pazar yönelimi arasındaki bilgi yönetiminin etkisinin yöneticilerin ve CEO’ ların olumlu bir bakış açısına sahip olduğunu göstermiştir.

A Proposed Framework for Fingerprint-based Voting System in Bangladesh
Authors: Nigar Nahida , Nath Mohan Lal , Islam MD. Toufiqul
Published: February 2020

The objective of this project is to improve the existing voting system that will be accurate, transparent, and faster and will ensure a single vote for a single person. Our proposed system has covered all of these issues successfully. This product is affordable by many organizations where preferential elections conducted. The product is a prototype and can be implemented for vast use. Voting is an onerous task for the election commission to conduct free and fair polls in our country, the largest democracy in the world. A lot of money has been spent on this to make sure that the elections are rampage free. But, now- a -days it has become very usual for some forces to indulge in rigging which may eventually lead to a result contrary to the actual verdict given by the people. In order to provide inexpensive solutions to the above, this project is implemented with the biometric system i.e. fingerprint scanning. This is used to ensure the security to avoid fake, repeated voting, etc. It also enhances the accuracy and speed of the process. The system uses a thumb impression for voter identification as we know that the thumb impression of every human being has a unique pattern. Thus it would have an edge over the present-day voting systems. The purpose of such a system is to ensure that the voting rights are accessed only by a legitimate user and no one else. In this, creation of a database consisting of the thumb impressions of all the eligible voters in a constituency is done as a pre-poll procedure. During elections, the thumb impression of a voter is entered as input to the system. This is then compared with the available records in the database. If the particular pattern matches with anyone in the available record, access to cast a vote is granted. But in case the pattern doesnâ€™t match with the records of the database or in case of repetition, access to cast a vote is denied or the vote gets rejected. The result is instantaneous and counting is done. The overall cost for conducting elections gets reduced and so does the maintenance cost of the systems.
