Response of black pepper varieties for propagation by serpentine layering
Authors: Thapa Adarsh , Datta S. , Rai U.
Published: January 2022

In the present study response of light black pepper verities for propagation through serpentine layering was studied. Verities showed significant variations with respect to growth attributing parameters, survivability and numbers of layers per year. Maximum survivability (93.00 % and 88.33 %) at 30 and 90 days after cutting was found in Panniyur-1. Maximum planting material production per year was achieved in Panniyur-1 (51.17) which was higher than the rest of the varieties but was statistically at par with Panniyur-2 (50.50) and Pournami (50.17). These three varieties may be considered for higher production of planting materials through serpentine layering method.

Published: January 2022

The subject of this research lies in examination of the key trends in healthcare development of Eastern Siberia and implemented activity during the Great Patriotic War based on the statistical data extracted from the USSR People's Commissariat of Health of the State Archive of the Russian Federation. The author traces the dynamics of development the network of in-patient, outpatient-polyclinic and sanitary anti-epidemic medical care facilities of the region, and the state of its human resourcing. The data is provided on the number of patients admitted to the in-patient medical institutions and the amount of visits in out-patient medical facilities. The article reveals key results of the Eastern Siberian medicine activity, as well as the mechanism for their achievement. This author is first to analyze the summary data on the development of healthcare in Eastern Siberia. The conclusion is made on the slow development of medical network and difficult situation with its human resourcing. It is established that the due to the deployment of a network of evacuation hospitals in Krasnoyarsk Krai, this regions faced the most challenging situation. The reduced healthcare capacity entailed the decline in rendering medical aid in Eastern Siberia. However, due to the accurate determination of priority tasks abd competent utilization of the available human and material resources, the healthcare system of Eastern Siberia maintained the provision of medical care to the population at the minimum essential level, as well as fought the group of gastrointestinal infections. Therefore, despite the severe wartime conditions, the healthcare system of Eastern Siberia managed to reduce the mortality rate of the population significantly.
Prevention of armament race in outer space: the questions of biosafety and countering WMD terrorism
Authors: Korzhenyak Anastasia Mikhailovna
Published: January 2022

This article comprehensively analyzes the legal mechanisms for preventing the armament race in outer space, as well as international legal issues of ensuring biosafety. The author examines the Russian initiative in counteracting chemical and biological terrorism, which is the most promising instrument for overcoming the gaps in international law. Recommendations are made on strengthening the modern system of international agreements in area of international humanitarian law and law of international security. The object of this research is the relations between the actors of international law in the sphere of biosafety, countering chemical and biological terrorism, and prevention of the armament race in outer space. Methodological framework is comprised of the formal-legal, system-functional, normative-dogmatic, and analytical methods. The conclusion is made that due to the absence of prohibiting provisions in the existing norms of international law, the weapons that do not fall under the category of weapon of mass destruction, may theoretically appear and be applied in outer space, which would undermine the strategic stability, pose a real threat to the international peace and security, and as well as cause a “mirror” response from other key players in outer space. There is currently no alternative to the China-Russia PAROS treaty (Treaty on the Prevention of the Placement of Weapons in Outer Space). With regards to the questions of biosafety, the participant countries of the Biological Weapons Convention must continue to advocate for the adoption of a Protocol to the Convention with the effective mechanism of verification , which is blocked by the United States, and resist the proposals of the United States to create politically motivated and subjective mechanisms that would bypass the procedures of the Biological Weapons Convention.
What Does Mary-Anne Elizabeth Plaatjies-Van Huffel Have to Say to Silent Partners of the Reformed World?
Authors: Zeze Willie
Published: January 2022

This article is a contribution to the Festschrift in honour of the late Mary-Anne Elizabeth Plaatjies-Van Huffel. The author is mindful of the sensitive nature of such writing, especially for her close and extended family members. However, all would agree that though she passed away on 19 May 2020, she still has something to say to women as silent partners. As part of commemorating her life, talents, achievements and contributions, this article specifically addresses the following question: What does Plaatjies-Van Huffel have to say to women who aspire to serve as leaders in the patriarchal Reformed world? I will defend in due course the notion that though she is deceased, she continues to speak. In addressing the question, this article is divided into four parts. The first part recounts her life with a special focus on her education and pastoral academic career. The second part identifies her sources for the practice of church law and church government. The third part comments on her ecclesial political duties in the patriarchal Reformed world, while the fourth part examines her understanding of the hermeneutical causes of challenges facing Christian women, particularly in their attempt to respond to their calling to lead the liberated and unliberated churches and society. The concluding part draws some of her important messages to women who aspire to serve as leaders in the patriarchal Reformed world, where patriarchy is defined as a social system that promotes hierarchies and awards economic, political, and social power to one group over others.
Church Media and Reconciliation in the Uniting Reformed Church in Southern Africa (URCSA)
Authors: Baron Eugene
Published: January 2022

In honour of Mary-Anne Elizabeth Plaatjies-Van Huffel, this article is dedicated to her last endeavour, “to reflect on the road travelled” of the Uniting Reformed Church in Southern Africa (URCSA). Plaatjies-Van Huffel became outspoken against the lack of internal unity in URCSA, especially after the retraction of her nomination as Actuarius at the URCSA Cape Synod elections in 2018. In this regard, the article focuses particularly on reconciliation in URCSA with a focus on the role of the church media as a medium for reconciliation. The paper will focus on the media reporting of the DRMC church newspaper, Die Ligdraer, between 1990 and 1994 on church unification between the DRCA and the DRMC as a case study to reflect on what role church media can play in the internal unification processes in URCSA. The author conducts a rhetorical analysis of the DRMC’s newspaper, Die Ligdraer, and its role in the facilitation of unification between two churches (DRMC and DRCA), with different ethnic and cultural traditions that became reconciled and united in the context of political transition within the broader South African context.
Towards a Future with Greater Freedoms for All
Authors: Forster Dion Angus
Published: January 2022

This article engages the work of one of South Africa’s foremost scholars in religion and law—the late Prof. Mary-Anne Plaatjies-Van Huffel. Towards the end of her life, Plaatjies-Van Huffel published a number of important articles on themes related to religion and law. In this article we shall trace the biographical and academic antecedents to these later works. The article shows how her dedication to justice, peace and integrity (to borrow a phrase from the World Council of Churches) developed through particular methodological and theological commitments. The article concludes by offering some tentative insights into where her work may have gone, had she lived to follow the same trajectory of a post-structuralist historiographic engagement with power to deconstruct gender abuse, safeguard minority rights, and cultivate inter-religious cooperation.

A class of non-coding miRNAs has attracted a lot of interest in the field of forensic sciences. miRNA has a relatively small size thus it is quite stable to the external environmental pressures and factors, which makes it very useful in forensic examination when used as a bio marker. At present, many of the specific miRNAs of body fluids can be distinguished by measuring their level of expression. Fresh blood samples and saliva samples were taken from 3 males and 3 females. RNA was extracted using TRIzol method and cDNA synthesis was done. RT reactions were made using SYBR Green master mix for RT-qPCR for quantification and detection of miRNAs. The designed primers were runs against the sample in qPCR and result was seen and compiled. Two miRNA were detected and expressed in both blood and saliva but they failed to differentiate between blood and saliva due to the non-specific primer binding according the methodology used in this study. Hsa-miR20a and Hsa-miR583 have been found to be non-specific for the blood and saliva. No stark difference could be observed on the basis of which we can say that Hsa-miR20a and HsamiR583 were specific for blood and saliva due to non-specific primer binding. Further research work is required in this domain of body fluids identification and differentiation using miRNA markers.

Published: January 2022

This study examines the effect of sustainability disclosure on firm value and examines the moderating role of firm size in the association between sustainability disclosure and firm value. This research data uses data and information on financial statements and stock prices of financial sector companies in the banking sub-sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Data obtained from www.idx.co.id and www.finance.yahoo.com with an observation period of 2018-2020. Based on purposive sampling, this study obtained a total sample of 47 observations. Hypothesis testing is done by multiple linear regression. The results show that the disclosure of sustainability reports does not affect firm value. In addition, firm size does not have a role in strengthening the effect of sustainability disclosure on firm value. This research indicates that the Financial Services Authority needs to develop sustainability disclosures under globally applicable standards. In addition, the Indonesia Financial Services Authority needs to supervise the implementation of sustainability disclosures carried out by companies in the banking sub-sector in Indonesia.
The Accountability of Business Entity with Sadaqah Concept in the Frame of Eling Sangkan Paraning Dumadi
Authors: Selfiah Selfiah , Triyuwono Iwan , Prihatiningtyas Yeney Widya
Published: January 2022

This research aims at formulating the concept of accountability of business entity based on Islamic spiritual values. The Islamic-spiritualist methodology is greatly needed to promote this research’s objective. The mutually integrated Physical Endeavor (IL) and Spiritual Endeavor (IB) were used to collect, reduce, analyze data and formulate the concept. Metaphor of Salah movements was used to analyze physical empirical data and spiritual empirical data. The research result shows that the accountability of business entity with sadaqah concept aims at trapping the stakeholders (humans) in spiritual consciousness by “maximizing sadaqah”, representing the spiritual accountability of business entity management. The spiritual value of love internalized in the concept of spiritual accountability may stimulate other spiritual values (such as: itsar (altruism), volunteerism, willingness, righteousness, honesty, and justice values), thus it may promote the welfare of all stakeholders (God, human, and nature) through distribution of added material (monetary and non-monetary), psychological, and spiritual values. The result of this research may be taken as the base to build sharia accounting concept and theory. In addition, this research may also stimulate stakeholders’ (human) behavior based on spiritual values, particularly spiritual value of love

Published: January 2022

El consumo de alcohol en la población trabajadora constituye un problema de salud dado que el abuso de ello repercute en los espacios laborales; afecta el desempeño laboral, se incrementa el ausentismo, la incapacidad por enfermedad y aumentan los costos económicos por las estancias hospitalarias que tienden a ser más prolongadas. Los problemas relacionados con el alcohol son responsables del 54% de los accidentes de trabajo, donde hasta el 40% de estos pueden ser mortales. Además, los empleados con problemas de alcoholismo causan 36% de los defectos de manufactura, son responsables del 33% de los robos cometidos dentro de la empresa y disminuyen en más del 50% su productividad laboral. La presente investigación, es de tipo descriptiva y cuantitativa. Descriptiva, ya que se pretende describir una realidad como es el evaluar si hay consumo de alcohol de los trabajadores de la empresa Eurofish y si esto tiene alguna repercusión en su rendimiento laboral. Cuantitativa, ya que se utilizarán herramientas matemáticas y estadísticas para medir los resultados obtenidos mediante las técnicas de recolección de datos y realizar los análisis correspondientes. La técnica de recolección de datos empleada fue una encuesta de 21 preguntas de tipo cerrada a través de Google Forms, que fue aplicada a una muestra de 293 trabajadores de la empresa Eurofish. El análisis ha de realizase a manera general a la pregunta del consumo de alcohol de los trabajadores de la empresa pero no dentro de la empresa, en este contexto y en base al resto de preguntas que involucran descuidos al trabajo, lesiones personales o a otros, problemas legales, se puede concluir que no está en riesgo el rendimiento y productividad de la empresa Eurofish, además que la caracterización del consumo de alcohol se presume está más asociada a actividades extra laborales que en un minino porcentaje se han extrapolado al ámbito laboral de los trabajadores que consumen habitualmente alcohol pero que no han desencadenado mayores problemas dentro de la empresa. Lo anterior comprueba la información obtenida en la página web de la empresa donde se puede observar la cronología de crecimiento en cuanto a la diversificación de productos, aumento de planta física y flota de barcos, almacenamiento y producción, esto solo es posible contando con el compromiso de los trabajadores en el tiempo.

SPEECH PERSONALITY: COMMUNICATIVE ASPECT (THE ANALYSIS OF SPEECH ACTS BY SHELDON LEE COOPER IN “THE BIG BANG THEORY” TV SERIES)
Authors: Kulish A.
Published: January 2022

The article discusses the speech personality of Sheldon Lee Cooper in a communicative aspect. The aim of the article is to identify linguistic features of speech acts of Sheldon Lee Cooper. The subject matter of this research is the speech acts typology of Sheldon Lee Cooper’ utterances. Respectively, the object is locution of the utterances, indicating the speech personality of Sheldon Lee Cooper. The article utilizes the classification of speech personalities based on the level of communicative competence, where personality can belong to a strong, mediocre (average) or weak type. Determination of the type of Sheldon Lee Cooper includes the following parameters: creativity, level of text construction of any thematic and genre-stylistic design; mastery of all functional and stylistic varieties of literary language; expanded active vocabulary; combination of different elements of speech, adequate to the objectives of communication; fluency in both oral and written form of speech and unmistakable choice of speech form depending on communicative goals. Analysis of the lexical and grammatical layers of Sheldon Lee Cooper' speech gave grounds to classify the speech personality to a certain type (strong, mediocre (average) or weak). To achieve the aim, the following methods were used: descriptive and structural methods allow us to characterize the typological features of the classification based on level of communicative competence; contextual and speech act analysis were applied to identify the communicative intentions of Sheldon Lee Cooper’s utterances and his attitude to the conversation; the method of linguistic modeling helped to figure out the level of communicative competence of Sheldon Lee Cooper’s speech personality.
Semantic dimension of discourse space (based on the scripts of English TV series "How to get away with murder")
Authors: Skrypkaru D. , Kolesnyk O.
Published: January 2022

This article addresses modern English TV discourse that provides representational space for legal discourse. Linguo-semiotic basis of discourse-level construals is identified as textual. As sequences of textual segments unfolding in an alternative reality modeled in a certain discourse are relatively stable, respective discourse is regarded as a frame structure integrating "frame-type scenarios" of different levels of generalization / abstraction. A state of affairs verbalized in TV discourse is considered an alternative reality, potential premises for a sub-culture, and a source of meanings and senses that are transmitted back to the "primary" reality and capable of modifying states of affairs in it. The article suggests an interdisciplinary understanding of discourse as a container of relatively stereotypic social phenomena as well as an operational space of dynamic semiosis. The employed methodology encompasses basic notions of discourse analysis, cognitive linguistics, linguo-cultural studies, and semiotics. The paper generalizes modern approaches toward interpretation, categorization and conceptualization of the world and verbal designation of the conceptualized experience. The paper focuses on verbal representations of a number of stereotypic scenarios unfolding in the judicial sphere. The inner structure of scenarios is analyzed from the standpoint of frame semantics. The paper reconstructs propositions as frame-type structures and suggests their arrangement within scenarios in regard to the hierarchical, causative and complementary criteria. The paper dwells on a number of "spaces" related to the said judicial scenarios. Designations of sub-scenarios, scripts and discrete notions are analyzed through the prism of functional semantics. Pragmatic intentions of judicial scenarios' participants are tackled in regard to their tactics / strategy reference.
Movimiento feminista chileno y violencias de género: Claves de lectura para entender la acción colectiva en el tiempo presente

Published: January 2022

Nosotras, las mujeres, nos hemos movilizado por nuestros derechos desde tiempos remotos. En algunas ocasiones de manera más pública y, en otras, desde lo oculto. Por medio de la revisión de documentos históricos, buscamos reflexionar sobre la conformación del movimiento feminista chileno y la integración de la problemática de las violencias contra las mujeres a partir de una aproximación específica: las relaciones entre las actoras sociales en lucha por la democracia y una vida libre de violencias, tanto a nivel de los debates y formulaciones teóricas planteadas en su seno, como en sus repertorios de acción. En particular este artículo aborda el movimiento de mujeres en tiempos de la dictadura pinochetista y sus continuidades respecto al movimiento social del Mayo Feminista de 2018.
Gendered Existence? Existential-There Construction in English-Polish Translation
Authors: Łyda Andrzej
Published: January 2022

This paper analyses a possible effect of the variable of gender on semantic enrichment of existential sentences translated from English to Polish. Existential-there clauses in English typically take the form there + be + indefinite NP (+place/time adverbial). Since there-constructions lack a structurally congruent counterpart in Polish, they can be rendered in Polish with several syntactic constructions ranging from the verb ‘być’ (E. to be) through ‘mieć’ (E. to have) to verbs semantically richer than ‘być’ (e.g., verbs of perception, verbs of location, etc). We ask the question of whether the gender factor is correlated with the factor of text type/genre. To this purpose, we compiled a corpus of English texts representing belles-lettres and popular science writing, male-authored, female-authored and multi-authored and translated by male and female translators. Our preliminary results show that the choice of  Polish translations of English existential-there follows from the interplay of genre, narrative/descriptive modes of text, and the gender of the translator, with female translators tending to replace the simple copula ‘be’ with a full lexical verb more often than male translators in dialogic parts of belle-lettres.
Perceived Expressed Emotion in the Illness Narratives of Individuals with Chronic Gastrointestinal Disorders
Authors: Pastryk Tetiana , Kireieva Zoia , Kordunova Nataliia , Lyla Mahdalyna
Published: January 2022

While expressed emotion has long been considered a valid predictor of a poor clinical outcome in individuals with mental and physical conditions, the present study marks the empirical investigation to assess specific communication patterns between family members and individuals with chronic gastrointestinal disorders. Following a rich tradition of studying illness narratives and a narrative approach to healing chronic illnesses, the present study examined illness narratives in a group of 40 mid-life adults with chronic gastrointestinal disorders. Two reliable, independent experts unfamiliar with the participants' research objectives and diagnostic status coded all narratives  (ICC = 0.77). Self-narratives describing the illness and its impact on the family life were analyzed for a set of narrative elements, including agency, communion fulfilment, and narrative coherence. In addition, the study applies measures to assess expressed emotion, criticism towards family and perceived criticism towards individuals with a condition. The correlation analysis results indicate an association between agency and criticism (0.33) and perceived criticism (0.33). The main issue emerging from the multiple regression analysis findings is that agency of the narrative, criticism towards family and duration of disease taken together contribute to perceived criticism of the family towards the individual with a condition. However, a family’s criticism towards the individual with a condition is the only independent significant predictor of perceived criticism. One of the more significant findings from this study is that substantial autonomy from significant others and empowerment of individuals with a condition could worsen the family environment and have an unfavourable clinical outcome. More practical information on service users' autonomy and its impact on disease self-management would help us establish a greater accuracy.
Procesos creativos artísticos y los estudios culturales
Authors: Herrera Castañeda Marco Vinicio , Flores Reyes Dorian
Published: January 2022

En este artículo se busca analizar cómo los estudios culturales, un campo de investigación que afirma interesarse por toda expresión cultural, ha tratado de forma parcial los procesos creativos artísticos. Se parte de revisar la relación entre ambos campos, para después observarlos por separado y destacar los aspectos que han obstaculizado una posible relación fructífera. De los estudios culturales, se hacen notar cuestiones disciplinarias y metodológicas; de los procesos artísticos, se subraya su tendencia a restringir casi todo influjo externo a sus normas. El reconocimiento de esta situación tiene intenciones constructivas: se reconoce que, al superar los desencuentros, pueden manifestarse grandes posibilidades de aumentar la cercanía de los estudios culturales a los procesos creativos y a la producción de conocimiento nuevo y diverso.
Fire Danger on Jambi Peatland Indonesia based on Weather Research and Forecasting Model

Published: January 2022

Monitoring drought related to peat fire danger is becoming essentials due to the adverse impacts of peat fires. However, the current monitoring is mostly based on station data and has not yet covered all parts of peatlands. This research was carried out to initiate a spatial monitoring for peat fire, particularly in Jambi province. Our approach was simple by integrating Weather Research Forecasting (WRF) output with a drought-fire model. This research aims to: (i) calibrate rainfall, air temperature and soil moisture data from WRF output; and (ii) analyze temporal drought related to fire danger. A drought-fire model known as Peat Fire Vulnerability Index was applied with daily inputs of WRF output at 5km resolution, which were comprised of rainfall, air temperature, and soil moisture. The results showed that calibration reduced rainfall magnitude, and slightly increased the maximum air temperature and soil moisture. The calibration performance was good as shown by a very low percent bias (less than ±5%), and lower error (RMSE=16.5; MAE=9.5). Our analysis showed that drought triggered by El Niño in 2015 had escalated extreme fire danger class by 38% compared to normal year (2018). This has been confirmed by a low variation of proportion of extreme class during July-August 2015. The results suggested that integrating spatial global climate data will benefit to the improved drought-fire model by providing spatial data. The results are expected to be a reference on drought and peat fires mitigation action.

Pembangunan Kawasan Industri di Desa Sitimulyo menyebabkan perubahan fisik, sosial, dan ekonomi lingkungan di sekitarnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh tingkat implementasi industri terhadap tingkat keberlanjutan kelembagaan usaha petani serta pengaruh tingkat keberlanjutan kelembagaan usaha petani terhadap tingkat kesejahteraan rumah tangga petani. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif didukung oleh data kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tingkat implementasi industri di Desa Sitimulyo tidak berpengaruh terhadap tingkat keberlanjutan kelembagaan usaha dari Gapoktan Sidomakmur karena implementasi industri tidak serta merta memudahkan Gapoktan Sidomakmur memperoleh akses lebih besar terhadap kebijakan Pemerintah untuk menangani dampak pembangunan Kawasan Industri. Tingkat keberlanjutan kelembagaan usaha dari Gapoktan Sidomakmur tidak berpengaruh terhadap tingkat kesejahteraan rumah tangga petani di Desa Sitimulyo Hal ini dikarenakan kontribusi sektor non-pertanian lebih dominan dibandingkan sektor pertanian pada pendapatan rumah tangga petani.

Minuman beralkohol tradisional merupakan jenis minuman beralkohol yang paling banyak dikonsumsi di Indonesia. Dampak buruk bagi kesehatan serta tuntutan norma, membuat pemerintah melarang produksi dan distribusi minuman tersebut. Namun demikian, banyak produsen yang tetap memproduksinya secara sembunyi- sembunyi. Dalam kasus ini, mereka harus bermanuver antara memenuhi kebutuhan hidup dan tekanan kebijakan pemerintah. Penelitian ini membahas alasan dibalik keputusan untuk terus memproduksi minuman beralkohol tersebut, dengan mengambil kasus produsen arak Jawa di Desa Kerek, Ngawi, Jawa Timur. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dan kualitatif. Penelitian ini mendapatkan bahwa jenis kelamin laki-laki, golongan usia muda, masyarakat asli, responden yang berproduksi kurang dari tiga tahun, memiliki riwayat penangkapan, lama menganggur kurang dari tiga bulan, tidak memiliki pekerjaan lainnya atau pendapatan dari pekerjaan sampingannya kurang dari Rp1.000.000 per bulan, adanya resiko formal dan individu yang rendah memiliki kesempatan lebih besar untuk kembali memproduksi arak Jawa. Regresi logistik mendapatkan keputusan untuk tetap berproduksi ditentukan oleh ketersediaan pekerjaan sampingan. Oleh karenanya, upaya menekan produksi dan peredaran minuman beralkohol tradisional perlu dilakukan dengan penyediaan pendapatan kepada produsennya.

The “Indus-Vedic” cultural heritage of India is well-known. Wild edible plants, sometimes known as weeds, are widely consumed in India’s varied areas. Wild edible plants and weeds are essential for tribes’ survival, both as a source of food and as a source of money, such as timber. This study aims to identify wild vegetables collected for ethnomedical purposes and their recipes by the local people, as well as determine the local uses and names of these plants, with the goal of closing the gap in traditional knowledge regarding the utility of wild plant species and tapping the hidden potential resources for proper utilization, exploitation, and nutritive evaluation. A field research study was conducted two years 2020-2021. 34 wild vegetable plant specimens were collected during this time. The names of the plants found in the area, as well as the parts that were used and how they were prepared, were examined and recorded. This type of extensive survey technique could assist aspiring scientists in learning about the health advantages of wild food plants and weeds, which can subsequently be combined to generate successful crop plants. Such a system will benefit in the mitigation of food shortages, the regeneration of infertile lands, and the enhancement of rural economies.

One of the symptoms experienced in the medical student is Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (EDS), which is one of the most common and most important symptoms of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Aim: This study aims to determine the association between the level of risk of developing OSA with risk factors such as age, gender, smoking, alcohol consumption, and obesity as seen from BMI, neck circumference (NC), and Mallampati score in medical students. Methods: An analytical observational study using Berlin and STOP-BANG questionnaire as an instrument to screen OSA. The study was conducted from April 2021 until August 2021 in the Faculty of Medicine Universitas Airlangga. Result: There were 87 participants aged 18-21 years old. The mean age was 19.71±0.70 years old. The bivariate analysis between BMI and risk level of OSA showed significant results as well as neck circumference using both Berlin criteria (p<0.05) and STOP-BANG criteria (p<0.05). For gender, the result showed significant results with Berlin criteria (p<0.05) but insignificant with STOP-BANG criteria (p>0.05). Meanwhile, the results of the bivariate analysis between age, Mallampati score, alcohol consumption, and smoking showed insignificant results both with Berlin criteria (p>0.05) and STOP-BANG criteria (p>0.05). Conclusion: Gender, BMI, and neck circumference are related to the risk level of OSA using Berlin criteria, but only BMI and neck circumference are related to the risk level of OSA using STOP-BANG criteria in Surabaya medical students.
