Published: January 2023

Em São Francisco do Sul, pequeno, porém bastante antigo município praiano do litoral norte de Santa Catarina, a ictiofauna marinha tem extrema importância para a economia e para o turismo. Contudo, a ictiofauna de água-doce e estuarina além de desempenhar importante papel biológico, também é fonte de recursos, principalmente paras as comunidades tradicionais da ilha. Para entender melhor a utilização e a conservação dos recursos pesqueiros, realizamos um levantamento junto às comunidades pesqueiras tradicionais. Assim, procuramos levantar informações sobre a atividade pesqueira, focando na pesca artesanal realizada em rios ou sistemas lagunares. Essa caracterização junto aos pescadores demonstrou que, quando pescam em rios ou sistemas lagunares o fazem, principalmente no rio Acaraí e utilizam o pescado para consumo próprio ou para a venda. Notamos também, que uma parcela considerável desses pescadores, não utiliza, para os fins desejados, todos os peixes que retira da água e isso pode ter relação com as características dos apetrechos que utilizam (comprimento e tamanho das malhas das redes e tarrafas). Por fim, com esses dados, produzimos um material na forma de cartilha que pode ser usado como apoio em atividades de educação ambiental.

Authors: Serrano Sílvia , Pereira Inês , Henriques Alexandra , Valentim Lourenço Alexandre
Published: January 2023

Introduction: Surgical treatment of patients with malformations of the female genital tract is a complex problem and there are different techniques described in the literature. The goal of all these techniques is the reconstruction of a neovagina that is anatomically similar to a vagina, with adequate length to facilitate sexual functioning and with the lowest risk of possible complications. The aim of this study is to describe the surgical technique for the reconstruction of a neovagina from an ileal segment without a vascular pedicle.Material and Methods: Description of a surgical technique developed in our tertiary university center in a patient with Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome.Results: The vaginoplasty surgery using ileal flap was performed in three steps. In the first part of the intervention a laparoscopic hysterectomy with bilateral salpingectomy was performed. The second step consisted of isolating the ileal segment, ileal anastomosis and preparing the ileal segment. After the isolated segment was prepared, it was repositioned in a vagina mold to configure the neovagina. Finally, the third step included the adaptation of the vaginal mold with the ileal mucosa to the vesicorectal space.Conclusion: Ileal vaginoplasty without a vascular pedicle is an option that can be used to reconstruct the vagina, because it provides an excellent tissue for vaginal replacement. This technique can be used in patients with genital malformations of the genital tract with absence or vaginal hypoplasia.

Published: January 2023

This study examined the effect of reward systems on workers' performance at the University of Abuja. It utilized descriptive and inferential statistics on a sample of 337 workers’ derived from 2145 workers through the random sampling technique. The results showed that employees are contented with the recognition accorded to them for executing good works, supervisors are open to assist or direct employees, supervisors encourage the ideas of employees’ and their styles of accomplishing things, supervisors’ expectations from employees in terms of job done are unclear to them and promotions and pay increases depend on the attainment of known performance goals exerted a positive effect on workers’ performance. However, this university does not automatically reward good performance, exceptional incentives and rewards are provided by management to all employees and the process of performance appraisal is connected to the reward system had a negative impact on workers' performance. The study recommends that the University of Abuja management should ensure that rewards are based on merit and matched with performance to inspire workers to perform optimally. In addition, reward management practices on rewards for good performance, promotions going to people that deserve them and celebration of excellent service should be reviewed and strengthened.
Inclusive Empirical Studies on Endogenous Monetary Theory in South Korea(2002-2019)
Authors:   KOREA DEVELOPMENT ECONOMICS ASSOCIATION, Won Yongwan , Min Byoung-Kil
Published: January 2023

Money endogeneity and interest rate exogeneity possess two properties of endogenous monetary theory. In particular, Korean economy has traditionally high ratio of exports and expects to increase government spending due to the increase of welfare cost by aging. This paper verifies them by using benchmark rate, interest rate and the balance-sheet of depository financial institution. The empirical result shows that there is money endogeneity for overall sectors. Interest rate exogeneity is also identified by the empirical analysis. Especially, money endogeneity appears to more stronger trend after the global financial crisis.

Published: January 2023

Servikal sitolojisi malignite açısından negatif, HPV (Human papillomaVirus) DNA taraması pozitif olan hastalarda tek başına HPV pozitifliğinin preinvaziv/invaziv hastalığı tanımlayabilmedeki yerini araştırmaktır. Ulusal Kanser Erken Teşhis, Tarama ve Eğitim Merkezi (KETEM) tarafından 30-65 yaş arasında primer HPV testi ile taranıp refleks sitoloji uygulanan ve Ocak 2021- Aralık 2021 tarihleri arasında kolposkopik değerlendirme yapılan hastalar retrospektif tarandı. Servikal sitolojisi negatif, HPV pozitif olan 234 hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi. Hastalar HPV sonuçlarına göre 4 gruba ayrıldı; HPV 16 ve/veya 18 pozitifler, HPV 16/18 ile birlikte diğer yüksek riskli HPV pozitifler, sadece diğer yüksek riskli HPV pozitifler, düşük riskli HPV pozitifler. Gruplar demografik veriler, kolposkopik sonuçlar açısından karşılaştırıldı. 234 hastanın mediyan yaşı 44(38-52), paritesi 2(2-3)idi. Hastaların 82’si (%35) postmenopozal iken,152 (%65) tanesi premenopozaldi. Gruplar arasında yaş, vücut kitle indeksi, gravida, parite, menopozal durum, sigara kullanımı, kolposkopik muayenede anormal bulguların bulunma oranı, uygulanan biyopsi adedi açısından fark izlenmedi. HPV sıklık sırası HPV16 (%29,6), HPV31 (%17,5), HPV52 (%9,8), HPV51(%9,4) ve HPV18 (%8,1)idi. Kolposkopik biyosi histopatolojik sonuçlarına göre, HPV 16 ve/veya 18 pozitifliğinde prekanseröz lezyon (CIN 2-3) görülme oranı diğer gruplara göre yüksekti (p=0,007). Endoservikal küretaj (ESK) histopatoloji sonuçlarına göre 2 hastada invaziv kanser varlığı saptandı. Sitoloji normal olan hastalarda HPV DNA pozitifliği endikasyonu ile yapılan kolposkopik biyopsilerde yüksek dereceli servikal displazi ve kanser görülebilmektedir. Yüksek onkojenik HPV alt tiplerinin (HPV 16- 18) direkt kolposkopiye yönlendirilmesi gerekmektedir. Aşılama programlarının yaygınlaşması ile HPV 31 gibi diğer yüksek riskli alt tipler ilerleyen yıllarda klinik önem kazanabilir.
Bordures de champs : diagnostic et gestion par une approche territoriale
Authors: SWIDERSKI Chloé , CHAUVET Élodie
Published: January 2023

Les bordures de champs représentent des zones d’interfaces et constituent des milieux essentiels à la préservation de la faune sauvage et de la biodiversité en générale. Ce sont des milieux écologiquement intéressants en tant que refuges pour la flore naturelle, pour de nombreux arthropodes, et représentent une zone privilégiée pour la petite faune. L’intérêt des bordures de champs pour cette biodiversité est lié à la stabilité de ces milieux, à leur surface au sein de la surface agricole utile (SAU) des exploitations, ainsi qu’à la gestion qui leur est appliquée. Le groupe technique national Agrifaune sur les bords de champs expérimente et diffuse depuis une dizaine d’années des outils pour accompagner les gestionnaires (principalement les agriculteurs et les conseillers du monde rural) sur cette thématique. Ils ont développé un outil de diagnostic et de conseil de gestion : la typologie des bords extérieurs de champs qui s’appuie sur des critères de structures et de cortèges végétaux pour accompagner le changement de pratiques. Parmi les solutions, le mélange Agrifaune composé de fleurs sauvages permet de revaloriser les linéaires non fonctionnels présentant une faible largeur ou un fort recouvrement en espèces adventices problématiques pour les cultures. Néanmoins, une action ponctuelle et locale ne peut répondre à elle seule à la viabilité des services écosystémique supportés par les bordures de champs. L’enjeu repose sur la prise en compte de ces linéaires à l’échelle du paysage et donc à leur gestion à l’échelle d’un territoire et à la coordination des acteurs (agriculteurs, collectivités…). Des programmes territoriaux sur les bordures de champs voient le jour en métropole et sont pilotés par les animateurs Agrifaune qui permettent de fédérer les différents gestionnaires autour des enjeux de la biodiversité, de créer de la coopération sur le territoire et d’accompagner des actions de communication et de sensibilisation pour valoriser ces initiatives auprès du grand public.
On the Fundamental Particles and Reactions of Nature
Authors: Bao Jian-Bin , Bao Nicholas P.
Published: January 2023

There are unsolved problems related to inflation, gravity, dark matter, dark energy, missing antimatter, and the birth of the universe. Some of them can be better answered by assuming the existence of aether and hypoatoms. Both were created during the inflation in the very early universe. While aether forms vacuum, hypoatoms, composed of both matter and antimatter and believed to be neutrinos, form all observable matter. In vacuum, aether exists between the particle-antiparticle dark matter form and the dark energy form in a dynamic equilibrium: A + A-bar = gamma + gamma. The same reaction stabilizes hypoatoms and generates a 3-dimensional sink flow of aether that causes gravity. Based on the hypoatom structure, the singularity does not exist inside a black hole; the core of the black hole is a hypoatom star or neutrino star. By gaining enough mass, ca. 3 X 1022 Msun, to exceed neutrino degeneracy pressure, the black hole collapses or annihilates into the singularity, thus turning itself into a white hole or a Big Bang. The universe is anisotropic. Its center, or where the Big Bang happened, is at 0.66+0.03-0.01 times the radius of the observable universe at Galactic coordinates (l, b) = (286+10-10, -43+7-6). If we look from the Local Group to the center of the universe, the universe is rotating clockwise.

Published: January 2023

Thalassemia is a common monogenic autosomal disorder prevalent in India. HbE beta thalassemia is a compound heterozygous state of two different beta globin mutations (HBB), predominant in the Eastern India. In HbE-beta thalassemia (β+/β°) patients, one HBB mutation does not produce any functional protein (β°); another mutation produces a structural altered haemoglobin, variant E (β+). It has been observed that in HbE-beta thalassemia patients with same type of HBB mutations, there exist diverse phenotypic presentation ranging from very severe, with regular transfusion-dependence to clinically non severe requiring very less transfusion or no transfusion. To explore this phenotypic mystery, we performed trio based expanded whole exome sequencing (WES) of two extreme phenotypes of HbE beta thalassemia subjects with similar HBB genotype and their parents. For WES library preparation, Agilent Sure select V6+UTR kit was used and sequencing was done through the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. This study aimed to search for de novo or inherited variants associated with the clinical severity. Six significant inherited variants were found in the genes, ATOH8, TTLL4, P2RX7, PRSS54, SLC9C2 and VRK2 in severe subject, however only one significant inherited variant in MTRR gene was found in non-severe subject. Bioinformatic analysis also confirms that each variant significantly changes in respective protein structure. The identified genes were either associated with iron absorption, oxidative stress, hematopoietic stem cell differentiation, structural organization of RBC cytoskeleton or regulating anemia. No significant de novo variant were identified associated with clinical severity. The finding of this study indicates that the combined effect of mutation load in major pathways may responsible for severe phenotype.
4D Einstein--Gauss--Bonnet Gravity Coupled to Modified Logarithmic Nonlinear Electrodynamics
Authors: Kruglov Sergey I.
Published: January 2023

Spherically symmetric solution in 4D Einstein--Gauss--Bonnet gravity coupled to modified logarithmic nonlinear electrodynamics (ModLogNED) is found. This solution at infinity possesses the charged black hole Reissner--Nordstr\"{o}m behavior. We study the black hole thermodynamics, entropy, shadow, energy emission rate and quasinormal modes. It was shown that black holes can possess the phase transitions and at some range of event horizon radii black holes are stable. The entropy has the logarithmic correction to the area law. The shadow radii were calculated for variety of parameters. We found that there is a peak of the black hole energy emission rate. The real and imaginary parts of the quasinormal modes frequencies were calculated. The energy conditions of ModLogNED are investigated.
The Higgs Trilinear Coupling and the Scale of New Physics for the SM-Axion-Seesaw-Higgs portal inflation (SMASH) Model
Authors: Das C.R. , Huitu Katri , Kärkkäinen Timo
Published: January 2023

In the extended scalar sector of the SMASH (Standard Model - Axion - Seesaw - Higgs portal inflation) framework, we conduct a phenomenological investigation of the observable effects. In a suitable region of the SMASH scalar parameter spaces, we solve the vacuum metastability problem and discuss the one-loop correction to the triple Higgs coupling, $\lambda_{HHH}$. The $\lambda_{HHH}$ and SM Higgs quartic coupling $\lambda_H$ corrections are found to be proportional to the threshold correction. A large $\lambda_{HHH}$ correction ($\gtrsim 5 \%$) implies vacuum instability in the model and thus limits the general class of theories that use threshold correction. We performed a full two-loop renormalization group analysis of the SMASH model. The SMASH framework has also been used to estimate the evolution of lepton asymmetry in the universe.

Published: January 2023

Background: Signaling by toll like receptors (TLRs) initiates important immune responses against viral infection. The role of TLRs in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections is not well elucidated. Thus, we investigated the interaction of TLRs agonists and SARS-COV-2 antigens with immune cells in vitro. Material & methods: 30 coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients (15 severe and 15 moderate) and 10 age and sex matched control (HC) were enrolled. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated and activated with TLR3, 7, 8 and 9 agonists, the spike protein (SP) of SARS-CoV-2 and the Receptor Binding Domain (RBD) unit of SP. Frequencies of CD3+IFN-β+ T cells, and CD3+IFN-g+ T cells was evaluated by flow cytometry. Interferon (IFN)-b gene expression was assessed by qRT-PCR. Results: The frequency of CD3+IFN-β+ T cells was higher in moderate and severe patients at baseline in comparison with HCs. Stimulation of PBMCs from moderate patients with SP and TLR8 agonist significantly upregulated the frequency of CD3+IFN-β+ T cells (P=0.0005 and 0.0024, respectively) when compared to non-stimulated (NS) samples. The greatest increase in CD3+IFN-b+ T cell frequency in PBMCs from severe patients was seen with TLR8 and TLR7 agonists when compared to NS (P= 0.003 and 0.0167, respectively). TLR stimulation did not significantly enhance the frequency of CD3+IFN-g+ T cells generated from PBMCs from moderate and severe patients compared with unstimulated controls. However, the frequency of CD3+IFN-ɣ+ T cells in PBMCs from moderate patients was upregulated by agonists of TLR3, 8 and 9, SP and RBD when compared with NS samples from HCs. The expression of the IFN-β gene after stimulation of CD3+T cells with the TLR8 agonist was also up-regulated in moderate than severe patients (moderate vs. severe: p=0.0006). In addition, stimulation of CD3+ T cells with SP, up-regulated the expression of IFN-β gene expression in cells from patients with moderate disease (moderate vs. severe: p=0.01). Conclusion: Stimulation of PBMCs from COVID-19 patients with a TLR8 agonist and with SP enhanced IFN-b protein and gene levels. This may potentiate immune responses against SARS-CoV-2 infection and prevent viral replication and spread.

Authors: Gupta Munishwar Nath , Uversky Vladimir N.
Published: January 2023

Transition between the unfolded and native states of the ordered globular proteins is accompanied by accumulation of several intermediates, such as pre-molten globule, wet molten globule, and dry molten globule. Structurally equivalent conformations can serve as native functional states of intrinsically disordered proteins. This overview captures the characteristics and importance of these molten globules in both structured and intrinsically disordered proteins. It also discusses examples of engineered molten globules. The formation of these intermediates under the conditions of macromolecular crowding and their interactions with nanomaterials are also reviewed.

Published: January 2023

Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) causes a rare type of Pulmonary Hypertension (PH), by impacting the flow and pressure within the pulmonary vasculature resulting in endothelial dysfunction and metabolic changes. A prudent line of treatment in this type of PH would be targeted therapy in order to relieve the pressure and reverse the flow related changes. We used a swine model in order to mimic PH post PVS using pulmonary vein banding (PVB) of the lower lobes for 12 weeks to mimic the hemodynamic profile associated with PH and investigate the molecular alterations that provide an impetus for development of PH. Our current study aimed to employ unbiased proteomic and metabolomic analyses on both the upper and lower lobes of the swine lung to identify the regions with metabolic alterations. We detected changes in the upper lobes for the PVB animals mainly pertaining to fatty acid metabolism, ROS signaling and extracellular matrix remodeling, and small albeit significant changes in the lower lobes for purine metabolism.
Optimizing the Energy Consumption of the Porcelain Tile Manufacturing Process using Flowsheet Simulations
Authors: Alves Carine Lourenco , Skorych Vasyl , De Noni Jr Agenor , Hotza Dachamir , González Sérgio Yesid Gómez , Heinrich Stefan
Published: January 2023

Porcelain tile manufacturing is an energy-intensive industry that is in dire need of increasing productivity, minimizing costs, and reducing CO2 emissions, while keeping the product quality intact to remain competitive in today’s environment. In this contribution, alternative processing parameters for the porcelain tile production sequence were proposed based on simulation-based process optimization. Flowsheet simulations in the Dyssol framework were used to study the impact of milling and firing process parameters on the electrical and thermal energy consumption, final product quality, and productivity of the entire processing sequence. For this, a new model of gas flow consumption in the sintering stage was proposed and implemented. During optimization, the primary condition was to maintain the product quality by keeping the final open porosity of the tile within the specified industrial range. The proposed simulation methodology proved to be effective in predicting the influence of processing parameters on the intermediate and final products of the manufacturing sequence, as well as in estimating production costs for the Brazilian and Spanish economic conditions. This approach has shown great potential to promote digitalization and establish digital twins in ceramic tile manufacturing for further in-line process control.
Comparison of Antibiotic Resistance Rates of Staphylococcus Aureus Isolates from Mastitic Milk between Years 2021 and 2022 in Abruzzo and Molise Regions, Italy
Authors: Rossi Franca , Matto Ilaria Del , Saletti Maria Antonietta , Ricchiuti Luciano , Marino Lucio
Published: January 2023

This study was aimed to highlight the trends of antibiotic resistance (AR) prevalence in two annualities, 2021 and 2022, for a major bacterial pathogen, Staphylococcus aureus, that causes mastitis infections necessitating antibiotic therapy in milk producing animals. Fiftyfour isolates, 27 for each year, were obtained from routine tests for the identification of clinical mastitis agents carried out in the author institution for four provinces of Abruzzo and Molise regions, Italy. These were analyzed for phenotypic resistance to eight antibiotics used in human therapy suggested for testing by the European guidelines and for the presence of 14 transferable AR genes by qPCR tests developed in this study. The prevalence of AR genes was lower than reported in studies carried out in other countries, except for blaZ detected in 59.2% 2021 isolates and in 48.1 % 2022 isolates. However, some iso-lates with blaZ were not resistant to cefoxitin. One methicillin resistant (MRSA) strain, carrying the mecA gene, was isolated in 2022 and two multidrug resistant (MDR) isolates were identified in 2021. Other AR genes occurring were aph3’-III (two 2021 isolates), ant6-Ia (one 2021 isolate), ermB (one 2022 isolate), ermC/T (two 2021 isolates) and mph (one 2022 isolate). An interview to the veterinarians who conferred the samples indicated a good management of antibiotic therapies in farms that could explain why AR prevalence was stable in the time inter-val considered, thus underlining the effectiveness of controlled antibiotic usage in containing the AR threat.

Authors: Xing Liyun
Published: January 2023

The substation inspection robot follows the set path when working autonomously, and accurate positioning of the robot while moving is required to ensure that the route does not deviate. This study briefly introduces a substation inspection robot, an odometer-based positioning algorithm, radio frequency identification (RFID), and a machine vision-based positioning algorithm, and improves the former algorithm by RFID. Subsequently, the three positioning algorithms were compared. The results showed that the RFID+machine vision-based positioning algorithm exhibited the highest accuracy among the three algorithms tested under the same cycle number, and its positioning error remained stable as the cycle number increased.

Published: January 2023

SMP PGRI 16 Sidoarjo is an educational unit with junior high school level with NPSN number 20501661 which has private status and is under the auspices of the Ministry of Education and Culture. SMP PGRI 16 Sidoarjo has its address at Jl. Raden Patah No. 91 E, Pucang Anom, Sidoarjo District, Sidoarjo Regency, East Java Province with postal code 61217.

The problem that is owned by SMP PGRI 16 Sidoarjo is at the time of PPDB implementation, where implementation still takes a long time and requires extra energy for the committee in accepting new students. Starting with students having to come to school to queue for taking forms and filling out the forms provided. In addition, announcement information for prospective students is placed on the bulletin board, so that information may not be fully received by prospective students. For prospective students who have been declared graduated by the student body, prospective students will return to school and make payments offline. And for the process of accepting prospective students using conventional, namely using special notes and processing student data using the Microsoft Excel application, so that data processing of prospective students takes a long time and is not integrated with each other.

Therefore, in this study, it is proposed to make a web-based application for Admission of New Students. It is hoped that it can help the registration process for new students, so that prospective participants do not need to come to school again. Starting from registration, payment of prospective students who have passed and filling out forms are all done online so that it can simplify and shorten the time for new students.

(Álvarez y Vidal, 1996, p. 5) Con este trabajo se pretende revisar las versiones chinas de Del Sentimiento Trágico de la Vida basado en el mecanismo de los filtros culturales de la Teoría de Variación. Tras la introducción y el fundamento teórico, se organiza el análisis a tres niveles: el contexto social, la traducción lingüística y la cultura tradicional, con el objetivo de indagar qué variaciones ha sufrido la traducción china de Del Sentimiento Trágico de la Vida, las posibles razones, así como las estrategias del traductor.

Actualmente, la figura del gestor de proyectos de traducción continúa siendo una gran desconocida para gran parte de los recién egresados del Grado de Traducción e Interpretación en España. No obstante y, debido al auge del sector y del gran volumen de traducciones del mercado, esta figura resulta cada vez más necesaria. Por ello, se ha convertido recientemente en una de las principales salidas dentro del mercado laboral de este sector, aunque sus funciones y competencias siguen siendo, en ocasiones, desconocidas para las nuevas generaciones de traductores.

Esto podría deberse, principalmente, al hecho de que debido a la limitación en tiempo y en créditos ETCS a la que están sujetos los vigentes planes de estudio en el Grado de Traducción e Interpretación en España, en donde la formación con respecto a la gestión de proyectos queda relevada, en ocasiones, a un segundo plano.

En el presente artículo se muestran los resultados obtenidos de una encuesta distribuida entre 41 egresados de dicho grado que ejercen o han ejercido como gestores para comprobar hasta qué punto disponen de las competencias y conocimientos necesarios para ejercer como tal. Finalmente, se analiza la oferta vigente en esta materia, tanto dentro de los planes de estudio del Grado de Traducción e Interpretación, como de posgrado en las universidades españolas para determinar si, en caso de existir carencias a este respecto, podrían estas ser suplidas a posteriori.

KONSEP INFLASI : PERBANDINGAN PEMIKIRAN IBNU KHALDUN DAN AL MAQRIZI SERTA IMPLIKASINYA DI INDONESIA
Authors: Alwa Moh. Abdul Aziz , Wahyudi Amin
Published: January 2023

Inflation is a problem in the economic system that has occurred repeatedly from the beginning of the development of human civilization. Since people started using money to trade goods and services, inflation has remained constant. On the other hand, the inflation rate is also used as a macroeconomic analysis of a country/region, such as economic growth, external balance, and income distribution. Conditions of high inflation, if not handled thoughtfully and appropriately, will cause economic depression. However, in the Islamic world, there are scholars, namely, Ibn Khaldun and Al-Maqrizi. These two Muslim thinkers provide an overview of the phenomenon of inflation since the 14th century AD. This research seeks to find the slices of Ibn Khaldun and Al-Maqrizi's thoughts about the causes of inflation and to offer solutions to the phenomenon of inflation that occurs. We chose the literature study research to explore the thoughts of Ibn Khaldun and Al-Marqizi in classic books and several primary sources that discuss the thoughts of the two and compare them with the concept and conditions of inflation in Indonesia through the official websites of BPS and Bank Indonesia. The study found that a country's weak administrative system and corrupt mentality cause inflation. To overcome inflation, improving the two causes of inflation above is the solution offered by these two experts.

Zakat holds a very strategic position regarding religious, social, economic, and social welfare aspects. In terms of community welfare, three pillars must be optimized, one of which is the empowerment of zakat potential. To optimize zakat management, the government must perform a practical regulatory and supervisory function, which BAZNAS does at all levels. The potential of ZIS funds contributes to the expansion of MSMEs as a driver of economic growth. MSMEs require not only capital but also business advice. In Indonesia, zakat management institutions have funds that can be used for business capital or productive Zakat. However, numerous cases in Indonesia involve the mismanagement of productive zakat funds, one of which is the philanthropic organization Aksi Cepat Tanggap (ACT), which has recently come under scrutiny for cases of misappropriation of people's funds. The purpose of this research is to determine how the monitoring system for the UMKM empowerment program at the Infaq Management Institute (LMI) in Bangkalan Regency complies with Law No. 23 of 2011 on Zakat Management. As a result, it is necessary to investigate how the monitoring system for the MSME empowerment program is implemented at the LMI Bangkalan Branch. This study used a qualitative data collection approach, employing interviews, observation, and documentation studies. According to the findings of this study, the supervision of LMI Bangkalan takes the form of an annual report on the performance of LAZNAS LMI activities in the form of a Financial Audit. Supervision is carried out internally at the Bangkalan Branch LMI by holding weekly and monthly evaluation meetings in each field and external supervision from the East Java Central LMI and the Central BAZNAS.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are essential to economic growth. However, the growth of MSMEs is constrained by difficulties in accessing capital. This study aims to determine the effect of the variable amount of financing (plafond), the application process, the repayment period (tenor), and the frequency of borrowing on the growth of MSMEs. This study uses a quantitative method with a sample of 80 respondents from Bank Syariah Indonesia branch office Sleman Prambanan customers. The sample selection used a purposive sampling technique with the criteria that Bank Syariah Indonesia branch office Sleman Prambanan customers were SMEs in the Yogyakarta and Klaten areas and used financing products such as BSI KUR Micro, BSI KUR Kecil, and BSI Super Micro. The analytical technique used is the classical assumption test, multiple linear regression analysis, t-test, F test, and the coefficient of determination with the help of SPSS software. The results show that the amount of financing (plafond) and the repayment period (tenor) have a positive effect. In contrast, the application process and the borrowing frequency do not positively affect the growth of MSMEs.

Published: January 2023

As Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TIC) permitem a elaboração de atividades de ensino que tenham como base práticas multi letradas e abordagens multimodais. Ao pensarmos em aulas de Geografia que tenham como base essas perspectivas, podemos desenvolver atividades de ensino interativas e que coloquem o estudante como centro do processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Neste plano de aula pretendemos abordar os Biomas brasileiros utilizando essas diferentes linguagens. Recursos didáticos como o software Biome Viewer, que permite ao estudante observar os Biomas de maneira interativa e representações tridimensionais, como as maquetes, aliados a uma pesquisa bibliográfica e a um seminário de integração, mediados pelo professor, podem contribuir não só para a apreensão dos conteúdos, mas também desenvolver o pensamento espacial.
