KEPUTUSAN RUMAH TANGGA DALAM MENERAPKAN PERTANIAN PERKOTAAN (Household Decisions in Implementing Urban Farming)
Authors: SITEPU RASIDIN KARO KARO , SEBAYANG VERALIANTA BR
Published: June 2023

This study aims to determine the factors that influence household decisions in implementing urban agriculture. The research location is in Margajaya Village, Bogor City with a total of 94 households as respondents. Data analysis uses descriptive statistics and structural equation model to measure the structure of the model that describes the relationship between latent variables and their indicators. Descriptively, it is known that the community has understood the concept of urban as much as 87.23%. The most widely applied agricultural method is the tabulampot system (51.22%). Household preferences and household knowledge of urban have a positive effect on household decisions in implementing urban agriculture. Household preferences are influenced by economic, environmental and social aspects. The hypothesis which states that household preferences and knowledge of urban agriculture has a positive effect on household decisions in implementing urban agriculture is acceptable. Due to the limited agricultural land in urban areas, increasing food availability through urban agriculture is an alternative strategy, so that training and socialization of urban agriculture need to be carried out by local governments to increase public interest in implementing urban agriculture. Urban agriculture will be able to provide food for households and also become an alternative source of increasing household income.

Background: Eclampsia is still a major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality in India and across the globe. Material & Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted at Government Medical College, LaturMaharashtra in 240 eclamptic patients admitted from 1st January 2019 to 30th June 2020, included after permission from the Institutional Ethics Committee & were evaluated regarding eclampsia, its sociodemographic presentation, risk factors, and fetomaternal complications. Epi- info 7.2.5 & SPSS version 2.0 was used for statistical analysis. The incidence Results: of eclampsia in the study was 1.64%. The mean age of eclampsia cases was 21.25 ± 2.47 years. 71.66% of cases were primiparous, 61.25% of cases of eclampsia had no education at all, and 13.33% of cases had a family history of preeclampsia.70% of patients were unbooked, 68.33% of cases were from rural residence while 78.34% cases were referred from different hospitals. 87.50% cases had antepartum eclampsia, 66.98% presented at gestational age less than 37 weeks, and 65.84% presented with severe hypertension with blood pressure >160/110 mm Hg on admission. 63.75% of cases had 2-4 convulsions before the start of anticonvulsant therapy. 67.91% of cases were delivered by lower segment cesarean section while 32.09% of cases had delivered vaginally. 9.17% of cases had HELLP syndrome, 7.5% cases had PRES, 5% cases required ventilatory support, and 2.92% cases developed pulmonary edema. Maternal death occurred in 9 cases. Pulmonary edema was the commonest cause of death in 44.44% of cases of eclampsia. 56.67% of cases of eclampsia had LBW babies, 85% of babies were born alive and there were 15% perinatal deaths. Eclampsia is still major Conclusion: contributor for maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity. The incidence of eclampsia and maternal deaths are higher in developing countries due to lack of education and lack of antenatal care. Proper antenatal care, early detection of pre-eclampsia, health education about imminent symptoms to patients, and proper management of pre-eclampsia are essential steps for the prevention of eclampsia. The maternal and fetal outcomes can be improved by the better provision of health care facilities, antenatal care, and improvement of socioeconomic conditions.

The COVID-19 was rst observed in patients in Wuhan, China, in 2019 and it widely infected people across the world thereafter. In March 2020, World Health Organization declared it as a global pandemic. Patients admitted to intensive care units are prone to developing mental illnesses; in addition, patients in the COVID Intensive care unit were at a disadvantage as they had to be kept separated from family members due to the contagious nature of their illness. Moreover, communication with medical staff was difcult due to protective equipment worn by the health care workers as well as oxygen masks and tubes assisting the patients. In this study done in year 2020 to 2022, we tried to nd out the impact that intensive care unit admission in the COVID intensive care unit had on the mental health of the patients. In our study, we found that a signicant number of patients developed psychiatric morbidity after discharge from the COVID intensive care unit.

Introduction: A stroke or cerebrovascular accident is dened as an abrupt onset of a neurologic decit that is attributable to a focal vascular cause due to cerebral ischemia or intracranial haemorrhage. Atherosclerosis and carotid artery stenosis are the major causes of stroke. Carotid Intimamedial thickness is a marker of subclinical atherosclerosis. So the measurement of CIMT is of major concern in high risk individuals. To measure the carotid wall thickness Aim: (CIMT) using B-mode ultrasound of both right and left carotid artery and to establish association between CIMT and stroke. A Hospit Methodology: al based prospective, cross-sectional study concluded 100 diagnosed cases of stroke of which 50 ischemic stroke and 50 hemorrhagic stroke. All these patients underwent clinical evaluation CT Scan and MRI Scan of Brain, CIMT and blood investigation including complete hemogram , lipid prole , fasting blood glucose. Results: Mean age for presentation of stroke was 68.68 with maximum number of patients belonging to 61-80 years of age group with lowest age taken was 39 and the highest was 92. 49 (98%) patients with hemorrhagic stroke and 30 (60%) patients with ischemic stroke had hypertension. The CIMT was measured using B-mode USG probe correlated with the type of Stroke. The minimum value of Right CIMT in Hemorrhagic Stroke was 0.6 with maximum value 1.1; the mean was 0.788 + 0.1305 (mean + SD). The minimum value of Right CIMT in Ischemic stroke was 0.6 with maximum value 1.2; the mean was 0.93 + 0.1258 (mean + SD).

In traditional India different castes formed a hierarchy of social precedence. Each position in the caste structure was dened in terms of in purity or pollution relative to others, whilst those who are least pure i.e. the Panchamas, sometimes called the 'out castes' or 'Untouchables' are inferior to all other castes. In the traditional system is generally conceptualized in terms of the four-fold Varnas, which in addition to the Brahmins at the top included the Kshatriyas, or warriors, the Vaishyas, or traders, and the Shudras, or servants and labourers, in that order. Thus, in a class society members typically believe that mobility is easily available and secured on merit. Andhra Pradesh (AP) is a relatively newly formed state; it was carved out of an erstwhile statewith the same name that was divided into AP and Telangana in 2014. The participation of educationally disadvantaged communities such as Scheduled Castes (SCs), Scheduled Tribes (STs), and Other Backward Classes (OBCs), has been increasing over the years at all stages except senior secondary. This could be attributed to several factors, one of which is the lack of accessibility to the seinstitutions, especially for students from disadvantaged. India is one the oldest societies on earth. Also known as Bharat and Hindustan and condently termed as the 'Republic of India', it is the largest liberal social equality of the world. India is divided into 29 states and 7 union territories. India is also the land of the Vedas the oldest scriptures in the world. It is divided in four-volumes and is gaze at as the storehouse of coast-to-coast thoughts. Today, India is the world's seventh largest country in terms of area and second in terms of populaces. The sights, the ancient temples and the lush paddy elds make the country unique and amazing. It has 22 major languages with 844 dialects, making this country and its people culturally diverse.

DOES ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE STEM FROM INSUFFICIENT GLUCOSE CONSUMPTION?
Authors: Gelbard Amos
Published: June 2023

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a progressively deteriorating disease in which memory, cognition and other cerebral functions deteriorate until death. Glucose is one of the most consumed substances in the world. Lately it's become a trend among doctors to advocate abstaining from glucose because of the hazards of its over-consumption. But in Alzheimer's disease, the situation may be different. This work will show proof of reduced cerebral glucose metabolism being even a hallmark of the disease, perhaps a better predictor of disease progression and severity than amyloid-beta and Tau accumulation. However, AD is prevalent among diabetics. How can we settle this with the glucose hypometabolism in the brain? The answer is simple: For some diabetics, listening to doctor's orders actually leads to a reduction in Glucose consumption. It's possible that a diabetic would avoid all glucose for years, he'll consequently have low blood sugar but this would be considered a success and he would go on avoiding sugar! People who abstain from sugar too intensively are also prone to having hypo-glycemic events which are life threatening events that require hospitalization, because of low sugar, these events are, also, more prevalent among diabetics despite requiring abnormally low, not high, sugar levels. I'll bring results from several studies that show a very strong correlation between the occurrence of low sugar hypoglycemic events in diabetics and an excessive risk of developing AD. I will complete this review by showing of evidence of two studies from the early 90's studying glucose administration to patients and I'll bring their resul
ACUTE RIGHT HEART FAILURE IN MEDICAL INTENSIVE CARE UNITS, A CRITICAL CARE PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Diaz-Fuentes Gilda , Venkatram Sindhaghatta
Published: June 2023

Acute right heart failure in patients admitted to the intensive care unit with acute or chronic pulmonary disease is common, occasionally unrecognized, and difcult to manage. Right ventricular function is a major determinant of survival in patients with pulmonary diseases and this has been recently highlighted with critically ill patients infected with Covid. Basic understanding of the physiology of the right heart as related to pulmonary disorders and approach to management is required. Right heart failure can be classied as acute or chronic based on acuity and pathophysiology. Right heart failure is associated with poor clinical outcomes independent of the etiology; early identication and management can potentially improve outcomes. Shareholders for right heart failure include cardiologists, physicians and intensivists managing right heart failure in critical care. The focus of this review is on acute heart failure in the setting of Medical Intensive Care units.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the current scenario. The recommended diagnostic protocols include either exercise treadmill testing (ETT) or noninvasive cardiac imaging tests like, stress echocardiography (SE), myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS), and coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) to diagnose, prognosticate risk and impact therapeutic decision making for patients with an intermediate pre-test likelihood of stable CAD. In comparison with cardiac testing without imaging, non-invasive cardiac testing with imaging has been favoured as an initial test for stable angina patients with at least intermediate pre-test likelihood of obstructive CAD, due to its superior ability to diagnose, reclassify and predict CAD events, guiding the [1] subsequent treatment

Background: Obesity is defined as an abnormal or excessive accumulation of body fat that may impair health. Body mass index expressed (BMI) in kg/m2 is a simple measure of weight for height used to estimate obesity in adults. For adults, the World Health Organization defines obesity when the body mass index is greater than or equal to 30. Africa is faced with the growing problem of obesity and overweight, due to new habits food and new lifestyles. Obesity surgery has come to impose itself in our environment as a mechanical and metabolic aid to fight against this scourge which has become a public health problem. It is in this perspective that we proposed to study the intraoperative complications Related to Anesthesia for laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy at Essos Hospital Center. Patients and Methods: This was a descriptive, retrospective and analytical study that took place over a period of 3 years, from January 2017 to December 2019, in the anesthesiology department of the Essos hospital center. All the files of the obese patients who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy during the above-mentioned period were included in the study. The variables studied were: socio-demographic data, intraoperative anesthetic complications. The results obtained were subjected to univariate and bivariate analysis using the CSPRO and SPSS software. Results: A non-probability convenience sampling allowed us to obtain 16 patients. The age group that was mostly represented was those 36 to 55 years (81%). The sex ratio was 0.1. A body mass index > 40 kg/m2 of body surface area was found in 38% of cases (morbid obesity). Arterial hypertension was the comorbidity frequently associated with obesity (37.5%). The surgery was long, > 6 hours in all cases. The main anesthetic intraoperative complications were difficult intubation (62.5%), arterial hypotension (43.7%) and hypothermia (75%). Conclusion: Obesity is a public health problem in sub-Saharan Africa, which remains neglected. ........

Published: June 2023

Suitable areas for expansion of khasi mandarin in Meghalaya were identified through land evaluation in GIS environment using information on soil physical, chemical and fertility properties, slope, elevation, rainfall and temperature. The study reveals that 10,457 ha area covering 64.37% of the total study area is suitable for the expansion of Khasi mandarin. Because of steep to very steep slopes, very shallow soil, strongly acidic soils, and low available soil nutrients, 35.63% area is not suitable for Khasi mandarin. It is observed that 64.88% (i.e. 6784.45 ha) area is marginally suitable and 3672.83 ha (35.12%) area is moderately suitable for Khasi mandarin expansion. The maximum area is marginally suitable because of the severe limitation of slope and moderate limitation of soil drainage and soil fertility. Based on constraints of slope (t), drainage (w), soil depth and texture (s) and soil fertility (f); the moderately and marginally suitable areas were classified into 31 and 26 sub classes respectively.

Coccidiosis is an important enteric parasitic protozoan disease of poultry. The disease is usually associated with high economic losses to poultry farmers worldwide. This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of coccidiosis, identify the species of circulating Eimeria species, determine the prevalence of Eimeria in respect to breed and gender and determine the deviation of infected birds from normal range of birds slaughtered in Lafia modern market, Nasarawa State, Nigeria. Out of the 204 examined chickens, 36.3% (74/204) of them harbored different Eimeria species. A total of 32.6% (44/74) male and 43.5 (30/74) female were infected. Statistically, no significant difference p>0.05 (χ2=1.559, p=0.2118) was noted between the male and female. Among the local breed, 40.2% (49/74) was infected and for the broilers, 30.5% (25/74) was positive for coccidial infection. Again, there was no statistically significant difference p>0.05 (χ2=1.324, p=0.25) between the local and broiler breeds. In the attempt made to identify the prevalent species of coccidian in the study area, five Eimerian species were identified, namely; Eimeria acervulina, Eimeria brunette, Eimeria mitis, Eimeria necatrix and Eimeria tenella with the prevalence of 14.22%, 5.88%, 1.47%, 6.86%, and 7.84% respectively. Results obtained from this study shows that coccidiosis is an important disease of chickens in the study area and further strategy needs to be implemented to reduce the infection rate of coccidiosis.
Prevalence and pattern of soil transmitted intestinal helminth infections amongst HIV infected children in a tertiary hospital south eastern, Nigeria
Authors: Ezeogu Joseph , Okoro Jude
Published: June 2023

Objective: Soil-transmitted helminth infections (STHI) coexist with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, and they are widespread in environments where poverty is endemic. Helminths upregulate immunological stimulation while HIV’s effect is down-regulatory, depicted by the increased incidence of hypersensitivity drug reactions in advanced HIV/AIDS. Hypobiosis (a state of dormancy in the host with the capability of reactivation and establishing intestinal infection over long periods) among helminths is accentuated in the presence of a low CD4 count. This makes HIV-positive patients often have a higher load of helminths. The study sought to determine the pattern, prevalence, and specie specific prevalence of intestinal helminthiasis in children living with HIV and HIV seronegative controls.
Material and Methods: This was a comparative cross-sectional study, conducted amongst 256 sero-positive children, and 268 matched controls recruited into the study between October and December 2022. Subjects were excluded if they had been given any antihelminth in the six weeks preceding enrollment. Data were collected using a structured interviewer-administered questionnaire. Fresh stool samples were analyzed using the Kato-Katz method.
Results: The prevalence of intestinal helminthiasis in children living with HIV was 47.7% and 36.6% amongst the sero-negative control population (p = 0.7589). Among the subjects and controls, the highest prevalence was seen in the 5-9 year age group, while those over 15 years had the lowest prevalence. These differences in the prevalence of helminths infection amongst the various age groups were significant in the subjects only and not in the controls. Of all the STHI, Hookworm infection constituted the majority 52.5%.  Multiple STHI were seen in 20.7% of subjects living with HIV, while 9.3% were seen in the control. The difference is statistically significant (p = .00003).
Conclusion: Soil-transmitted helminthic infection is more prevalent in children living with HIV than in apparently healthy children. Regular deworming should be considered in the care of children living with HIV.

The aim of the article is to present the evolution of the ideas of the Czech Brethren regarding the institution of marriage that took place over the 16th and 17th centuries and was reflected in the literature of the time. In the first period of activity, the main theologians of the Unity recognized the superiority of virginity over marriage, which was perceived as a necessary evil for the preservation of offspring. Under the influence of Martin Luther’s teachings, marriage began to be viewed positively and a woman was appreciated as a wife and mother. However, it was not until the middle of the 17th century that the marriage status was equalized with the maiden status. In the discussions on marital status, a lot of space was devoted to the marriages of priests and celibacy. The article presents the issues of marriage discussed in the scripts of the Unity written in Czech and Polish.

The quality of leadership greatly affects the work discipline and work environment of an employee in an organization. A leader is defined as a person's ability to be able to influence other people, through communication, either directly or indirectly, with the intention of moving these people so that they are willing to follow the leader's wishes with understanding, awareness and pleasure. The leadership role, no doubt, also contributes to a company.

The development of international logistics, the setting of logistical problems and the effectiveness of their solution directly depend on the trends of the world market. Currently, the world economy is developing through ever-advancing globalization and rising production costs with fierce competition between manufacturers. Today, the trend of globalization is clearly visible in the development of global macro-logistics systems. This trend reflects on the one hand, the globalization of markets for the sale of finished products, production, supply of material resources, labor, and capital, which are characteristic of large transnational corporations and financial and industrial groups, and on the other hand, the creation and development of global interstate transport and logistics, telecommunications, distribution macrologistics systems. Globalization is manifested in the increase in the scale of world trade and other processes of international exchange in the conditions of a more open, integrated world economy. Economic relations between countries go beyond bilateral and take on the character of multilateral relations that connect several countries and sometimes have a very significant impact on the world economic system. The global implementation of quarantine measures as part of the fight against the pandemic affected all business sectors, which in general had a negative impact on the logistics industry, whose performance remains an indicator of macroeconomic development. While the pandemic has significantly increased the demand for online commerce, having a reliable transport company has become vital for business representatives, as it allows them to maintain business efficiency and ensure quality and timely delivery The rapid spread of the virus in the world has had a shocking effect on global trade in connection with the introduced anti-pandemic restrictions on economic and industrial activity and cross-border transportation. Ukraine also felt the impact of the epidemic, which affected a significant decrease in GDP growth rates in general and trade indicators.

Structural and logic scheme understanding in the context of developing personnel potential of an agricultural enterprise
Authors: Zemliana Liudmyla
Published: June 2023

The topic of human resources development is so extensive and global for enterprises that, first, it needs clarification of its content. In the article, we specified a chain of concepts: personnel, personnel potential, personnel value, potential benefits and losses, development of personnel potential of an agricultural enterprise or enterprises, clarified their content, formed a structural and logical scheme of these concepts. This is important, because when "personnel" is confused with "staff" or "human resources" in research, the focus of attention shifts when forming a system or measures for their development. In our opinion, when developing personnel, we think about its diversity, renewal of its mental state, worldview, personality development, because the "person" is at the center. Developing labor resources, we focus on productivity, efficiency of investments (financial, material) in achieving return on human labor. Developing personnel, emphasis is put on the professional and special component, leadership qualities, the ability to organize and attract, to lead to the achievement of the goal. What will this goal be in the context of agrarian business, both the business itself and the urgent needs that exist in the economy and society are determined. To clarify the concepts, we turned to several dictionaries, Ukrainian and international, to research the etymology of the concepts and note the omitted meaning. The personnel potential of an agricultural enterprise is the opportunities and prospects, first, economic, created by human resources, the advantages they provide. Personnel potential can be measured in terms of potential gains or potential losses. This should be the focus on the development of personnel potential of an agricultural enterprise or enterprises.

Economic significance of transformation of land resources in forming the efficiency of their use
Authors: Bahin Myhailo
Published: June 2023

There are many problems in the system of land use, they are especially clearly manifested in agriculture. The area of land, in which the development of erosion, deflation and other negative natural processes are possible, is increasing, this leads to a decrease in soil fertility. To eliminate the problems, it is necessary to develop measures to rationalize agricultural land use and thereby increase agricultural potential. The most important resource in agriculture is land. The volume of agricultural production depends on the rational use of land, on its quantitative composition and structure. With perspective planning, it is necessary to establish the structure of agricultural land, hence the need for transformation of land is next. It has been established that when designing the transformation in modern conditions, it is necessary to distinguish clearly natural and cultural land complexes, because from economic viewpoint, the differences between natural and cultural lands of the same type are no less significant than between types of land within the complex. The economic efficiency of measures for the transformation and improvement of lands is determined by the increase in the yield of gross products, the growth of profitability. Important factors of transformation of agricultural land are singled out. The main criterion of the economic efficiency of the corresponding transformation should be the payback of capital investments, and the methodical basis should be the transfer of land from less intensive to more intensive. The efficiency of land use is characterized by the increase in manufacturing high-quality products with the lowest labor costs and funds per unit. With regard to agriculture, its essence means obtaining the maximum number of products from each hectare with the lowest costs of live and embodied labor. With equal investments of labor and funds per unit of area, there are differences in the number of products obtained. Under the influence of human labor, these differences can be both smoothed out and intensified, affecting the output of products for the worker, profitability and other economic indicators of the efficiency of agricultural production.

The circular economy is an important trend in the development of agriculture and as well as its challenge. The circular approach allows to find effective ways to reduce costs, enter new markets, in particular foreign ones, as well as strengthen the social responsibility of business and product consumers. The purpose of the study is to determine the expediency and risks of organizing the activities of agricultural enterprises based on the circular economy in modern conditions. The strategic importance of agriculture in Ukraine, which provides more than 40% of export revenue, is emphasized. The situation in Ukraine with the treatment of agricultural crops for harvest with fertilizers and pesticides is analyzed. The main difficulties are related to the insufficient use of organic fertilizers, although there have already been positive developments. The main advantages of circular agribusiness, which are related to: 1) minimization of waste in the process of production and consumption of products and services, which will reduce their negative impact on the environment; 2) the high potential of scaling circular economy methods, which contributes to the growing involvement of investment capital in the field of agriculture.
Specific features of risks that create barriers to the implementation of circular economy in the activities of agricultural enterprises in modern conditions, are determined. Therefore, they are grouped as follows: 1) financial (long-term investment costs for circular models and technologies; the principle of "green finance"); 2) marketing (planned moral aging as an effective option for ensuring sales volumes in the future); 3) organizational (difficult process of restructuring the current business model into an economical and circular one; weak awareness of the sustainable development concept and its connection with circular effects).
Attention is focused on the fact that when planning the transition to circular business models, the strategic task of increasing the share of added value of agricultural products should be followed.

Authors: Krasnorutskyy Oleksiy
Published: June 2023

Craft entrepreneurship creates favorable conditions for the development of effective competition in the local market, and its flexibility provides an opportunity to solve a complex of economic and social tasks. The distinctive feature of craft activity is the formation of a strong emotional connection between the consumer and the product. It is this specificity of craft that must be considered when forming the brand of the agricultural producer's product. The purpose of the study is to determine the current state and components of effective use of the craft product brand of the agricultural enterprise. According to the results of the research, it was concluded that entrepreneurship related to craft technologies is relevant for agricultural producers of Ukraine, because it allows solving problems with unemployment and investment attractiveness of territories. The list of measures to increase the effective use of the craft product brand of the agricultural enterprise has been created, among which a significant place is given to the introduction of unique craft technology and quality control. The sequence of actions for managing the brand of the manufacturer of the craft product of the agricultural enterprise was also determined, which included the following subsystems: brand planning, its development, use and evaluation of the brand's effectiveness. The main factors that influence the brand of an agricultural enterprise producing a craft product were analyzed, considering the trends and challenges in this field of activity. The effective use of branding gives the manufacturer of craft products the opportunity to justify future decisions based on facts from their own history, as well as to optimize the process of their adoption based on the result. For this purpose, agricultural enterprises need to develop special indicators, i.e., such measurable parameters for evaluating the effectiveness of brand-oriented business actions, which are relevant in modern conditions. Only a comprehensive system of significant indicators can ensure such a process, which provides the possibility of a comprehensive assessment of the effectiveness of the branding measures of the manufacturer of craft products.
