Published: August 2022

Exposure of patients undergoing multiple surgeries to anesthetic compounds leads to harmful side effects such as memory loss and impaired cognition. The current study was aimed to synthesize and investigate the effect of oxymatrine hydrazone on neuronal toxicity induced by sevoflurane in rats. Incubation with oxymatrine hydrazone was followed by exposure to sevoflurane for 48 h and determination of proliferation by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-Diphenyltetrazolium Bromide (MTT) assay. Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry using Annexin V‑FITC and propydium iodide staining. Western blot analysis was used for determination of changes in protein expression. Sevoflurane exposure significantly (P<0.05) reduced proliferation of neurons by activation of cell apoptosis. However, pretreatment of neurons with oxymatrine hydrazone prevented reduction of proliferative potential induced on exposure with sevoflurane. Pre-treatment of neurons with 5.0 µM doses of oxymatrine hydrazone significantly prevented apoptosis induction by sevoflurane. Moreover, oxymatrine hydrazone pretreatment inhibited BCL2 Associated-X (BAX) and cleaved caspase-3 levels induced by sevoflurane exposure in neurons. Phosphorylation of extracellular signal‑regulated protein kinase (ERK1/2) and expression of BCL-2 in neurons exposed to sevoflurane were markedly promoted on pretreatment with oxymatrine hydrazone. Additionally, U0126 (ERK ½ activation inhibitor) treatment of sevoflurane exposed neurons inhibited promotion of ERK1/2 phosphorylation by oxymatrine hydrazone pre-treatment. In summary, cytotoxicity of sevoflurane in neurons was prevented on pretreatment with oxymatrine hydrazone. Pretreatment of sevoflurane exposed neurons with oxymatrine hydrazone inhibited apoptosis, suppressed BAX/caspase-3 and elevated BCL-2. Moreover, oxymatrine hydrazone pre-treatment promoted ERK1/2 phosphorylation in sevoflurane exposed neurons. Therefore, oxymatrine hydrazone has a great potential for prevention of neurotoxicity induced by sevoflurane.
The Eastern European Automotive Industry in a Post-Pandemic World: What Drives Performance?
Authors: Horobet Alexandra , Popoviciu Alexandra Smedoiu , Zlatea Emanuela , Alexe Razvan
Published: August 2022

The automotive industry is one of the key drivers of economic growth in countries in Central and South-Eastern Europe, with contributions of up to 15% of gross domestic product. At the same time, the automotive industry is at the heart of key transformations: new technologies on the horizon at the verge of the global “green deal”; supply chain uncertainties because of the effects of pandemics in Asia; and unpredictable demand side factors ranging from purchasing power to consumer preferences. These aspects, coupled with large, fixed investments and costly distribution channels, put the industry at the core of (radical) change initiatives. Ahead of these changes, our paper investigated the presence of firm, industry, and country effects on the profitability of firms in the automotive industry in Central, Eastern and South-Eastern European countries, considering different industry definitions and firm size. We found that firm effects are significant for profitability variation across companies, but differ in intensity based on the size of the company, which signals that firm size matters significantly as a driver of operational profitability, as it is converted into sustained competitive advantages. While industry effects bear very little significance for profitability variation in the automotive industry, our most surprising finding was that country effects are important for profitability and have more of an impact for smaller companies. This may be the consequence of “historical” factors that led to large Original Equipment Manufacturers setting up their manufacturing facilities in the region, but also of specific economic policies in the form of state aid addressed to the automotive industry.

Family Council From A Cultural Approach: the case of eastern european countries
Authors: Rodríguez-García María , Ulrich Klaus , Gallego-Nicholls José Fernando , Pagán-Castaño Esther
Published: August 2022

The family council is a formal mechanism of the family governance in family businesses that aims to give a voice to all members of the family, and to unify the interests of all members. These interests are identified with the purpose of the family, necessary to achieve a long-term legacy, and the sustainability of the company. However, the establishment of the family council is a topic that is still at an incipient stage, both in the literature and for practitioners, so our contribution advances the understanding of family governance within the sphere of family businesses culture and context. For that purpose, we rely on two cultural indexes widely accepted in the literature. We have taken Hofstede’s dimensions and CAGE Distance Framework to explain the establishment of a family council in family businesses settled on the Eastern European countries. The prevailing culture in these countries defines the values and behaviors of their social organizations, namely, the family. The joint study of Hofstede’s dimensions and of the cultural, administrative, and economic differences in the Eastern European countries (CAGE framework) sheds light on how, when and why to establish a family council. This research opens a new field in the intersectional study of culture as an element of sociology and family business in the field of family governance. In advancing this line of research, multilevel analysis through case studies would confirm the coincidence of national values, with individual characteristics.

Financial Sustainability of Non-profit Organizations in Tourist Destinations - Differences Between Coastal and Continental Destinations
Authors: Dadić Fruk Lorena , Badurina Jelena Đurkin
Published: August 2022

The lack of funds needed to carry out activities is often a limiting factor to the development of non-profit organizations (NPOs) and a threat to their survival. To be financially sustainable, NPOs must seek to increase the share of their own earned income while reducing the share of public funding (donations) in their income structure. By operating in developed tourist regions and undertaking activities in tourism, NPOs can take advantage of an array of opportunities to generate their own income. The aim of this paper was to determine whether there are any differences in financial sustainability between NPOs operating in the most developed coastal tourist destinations of Croatia and NPOs operating in the country’s most developed continental tourist destinations. The paper also aimed to identify which NPOs show a higher level of financial sustainability, that is, which NPOs have a higher share of own earned income relative to the share of donations and grants. To this end, an online survey was conducted of NPO Assembly members in the most developed coastal and continental tourist destinations (based on tourist traffic in the past 10 years) in Croatia. The results indicated that there are statistically significant differences between NPOs operating in coastal tourist destinations and NPOs operating in continental tourist destinations with regard to the amount of income generated by active self-funding (selling products and providing services) and the amount of income from other self-funding (income from membership fees and assets).

Published: August 2022

Digitalisation and the use of technology are pushing the spread of new business models and improving the efficiency of processes. The demand for innovative and revolutionary applications is increasing, along with the use of big data (BD). The proliferation of large quantities of data is receiving considerable attention in all sectors due to the possibility of using these data in decision-making processes. In the healthcare sector, the role of BD is prominent, especially regarding patient diagnostics, fast epidemic recognition and patient management improvement. To ensure personalised care, the health system must transform individual medical services into electronic forms and favour complete and systemic automation based on the advanced technologies of Industry 4.0. This paper consists of a systematic literature review of the use of BD in the healthcare sector, focusing on the opportunities and challenges. To this end, we selected articles from the Scopus and Web of Science databases. Providing a deep understanding of the state of the art, this paper aims to reveal the implications of the use of BD and offer valuable insights to address future research and identify emerging issues.

Authors: Baghaei Bahareh , Aghaei Asghar
Published: August 2022

Introduction: Firefighters are among the people who face all kinds of painful and stressful situations due to their work. Therefore, due to stressful conditions, the mental health of firefighters should always be considered. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of positive psychotherapy on quality of life, happiness, and semantic level of firefighters in Isfahan in the spring of 2020.
Methods: The present quasi-experimental study was conducted based on pre-test-post-test with control- follow-up and one-month follow-up period. The statistical population of the study included all firefighters in Isfahan. Among them, 30 people, two groups of 15 people (test and control) were selected using random sampling method. To collect data, the World Health Organization Quality of Life Instrument-Short Form (WHOQOL-BREF), Oxford Happiness (OxH), and Semantic Level Determination (Dsl) questionnaires were used. Positive treatment sessions were performed on the test group during eight 90-minute sessions and the control group did not receive any intervention. The data obtained from the questionnaires were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance.
Results: The results showed that there was a significant difference between the mean scores of pre-test and post-test and follow-up in the variables of semantic level, quality of life, and happiness. This indicates that positive psychotherapy was able to significantly change the post-test scores and follow-up of semantic level, quality of life, and happiness compared to the pre-test stage (p <0.01).
Conclusion: Given that positive psychotherapy has been effective on quality of life, happiness, and semantic level of firefighters, it is recommended that counselors use this intervention method to improve the mental health of firefighters.

Evaluation of the effectiveness of habit reversal techniques on reducing nail biting disorder and state/trait anxiety of male high school Students in khorramabad
Authors: Garavand Houshang , Sabzian Saeideh
Published: August 2022

Introduction: Nail biting is an inappropriate habit and its exact cause is debatable. Researchers believe that nail biting disorder is often associated with psychiatric disorders, including anxiety. State/trait anxiety can be considered an unstable emotional state reflecting the individual's interpretation of a stressful situation in a particular time frame and varies depending on the degree to which the situation is perceived threatening. This study aims to determine the evaluation of the effectiveness of habit reversal techniques on reducing nail biting disorder and state/trait anxiety in students.
Methods: The present semi-experimental study with pretest, post-test, and follow-up was conducted on six junior high school male students in the age range of 13-15 years, who asked for help by referring to the school counseling and were selected by convenience sampling method. They received a program of habit reversal techniques individually in 6 sessions for 1 month. Clinical interviewing, frequency recording of nail biting per day, and state/trait anxiety test were used to measure the variables.
Results: Data analysis showed that habit reversal techniques reduce nail biting and students' state/trait anxiety. Follow-up one month after the end of treatment indicated the persistence of these results.
Conclusion: The habit reversal training is effective on treating nail biting, reducing anxiety, and promoting the person life quality and symptoms from nail biting. Due the low sample size, it is suggested that while repeating the study in a larger sample, its effectiveness on the treatment of other habitual disorders be studied.

Published: August 2022

This investigation aims to study the perspectives for obtaining natural remedies and food addit­ives from raw plant materials that can be used in food, pharmaceutical, and other industries. The selection of hazelnut green leafy cover as an item is based on the fact that it is a natural organic resource that is now being discarded as waste. In the article, the results are presented about the determination of mineral elements and bioactive compounds in the bio-extracts of 70% ethyl alcohol (BE-III) and distillation water (BE-IV) obtained from the green leafy cover of the plant (Corylus avellane L.) where grow in the north-western region of Azerbaijan. According to our study, BE-III has 25 chemical elements, excluding Rb, for a total of 12.797%, while BE-IV contains 26 chemical elements for a total of 21.347%. Amounts of mac­roelements are 10.4%, and microelements are 2.69% in the content of BE-III, while amounts of macroele­ments are 17.82%, and amounts of microelements are 3.53% in the content of BE-IV. Amounts of organic compounds are 87.2% in the content of BE-III, while their amounts are 78.65% in the content of BE-IV. The amount of Zn, which has antioxidant activity, is 0.009%, and the amount of Se is 0.002% in the con­tent of BE-IV. These values vary in the content of BE-III, the amount of Zn is 0.01%, but the amount of Se is 0.001%. 15 bioactive substances were identified in the content of BE-III bio-extract; however, 5 bioact­ive substances were identified in the content of BE-IV bio-extract. According to our research results, the bio-extract obtained from hazelnut green leafy cover is abundant with antioxidants and bioactive sub­stances with antibacterial activity. For this reason, these bio-extracts can be used as both a food supple­ment and a means of treatment.

İnternet ve “Post-truth” İlişkisinin Sosyal Bağlamları: Anti-determinist Bir Yaklaşım
Authors: DEMİRKOL Onurhan
Published: August 2022

Tesich “post-truth” kavramını ilk kez kullandığı 1992 tarihli makalesinde, gerçeklere erişmenin toplum açısından artık bir öneminin kalmadığına yönelik politik bir eleştiri geliştirir: Hakikatin önemsizleşmesi, ABD’deki despotik yönetim biçimi karşısında toplumsal iradenin boşa çıkmasına dayalıdır. Kavram bu bağlamda, bilginin üretiminden çok tüketim sürecini vurgular ve bireyin, belirlenmişlikleri doğrultusunda gerçekliği yeniden inşa etme ihtiyacına işaret eden eleştirel bir zemin oluşturur. Ancak 2016 yılında ABD seçimleri ve Brexit sürecine bağlı olarak gündeme geliş koşulları, kavramın sosyal medyayla doğrudan ilişkilendirilmesine neden olmuş, bu durum da post-truth çalışmalarında internetin etkisini teknolojik bir belirlenimcilik çerçevesinde değerlendirme eğilimi oluşturmuştur. Manipülatif bilgi ekolojisinde internetin rolü yadsınamaz olsa da, “post-truth” kavramının tek yönlü bir belirlenim kapsamında ele alınması, özündeki eleştirel bağlamları görünmez kılmaktadır. Bu makale, internetin manipülatif bilgi ekolojisiyle olan ilişkisini sosyal boyutları içinde ele almakta ve “post-truth” kavramının gösterdiği eleştirel bağlam içinde irdelemektedir. Bu amaçla, internetteki sosyalleşme biçimleriyle toplumsal koşullar arasındaki ilişki incelenmiş, “mahalle baskısı” ve “suskunluk sarmalı” gibi sosyolojik temelli kavramların dijital ortamdaki karşılıkları araştırılmıştır. Böylece, post-truth ve internet arasındaki ilişkinin teknolojik belirlenimci bir doğrultuda ele alınmasının önüne geçebilmek ve bu kapsamda yapılacak çalışmalar için bu ilişkiyi, kavramın özünü koruyacak biçimde karşılıklı olarak kurabilmek amaçlanmıştır.

Authors: Lara Shimelly Monteiro de Castro , Muniz Francisco Wilker Mustafa Gomes , Gerônimo Ana Beatriz Caetano , Santos Cinthia Studzinski dos , Barbosa Calcia Thayanne Brasil
Published: August 2022

Aim: This study aimed to systematically review existing literature regarding the association between dental procedures—such as tooth extractions and periodontal therapy—and occurrence of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) in individuals using bone-modifying drugs. Methods: Search strategies were performed in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Library for a timeframe ending in December 2021. Study selection, data extraction and risk of bias were analyzed independently by two researchers. Three meta-analyses were performed, estimating the crude risk ratio (RR), the adjusted odds ratio (OR) and the adjusted hazard ratio (HR) for the association between tooth extraction and MRONJ. Results: Of the 1,654 studies initially retrieved, 17 were ultimately included. The majority of patients with MRONJ in these studies were female, with a mean age of 64 years. Zoledronic acid was the most commonly used drug among patients with MRONJ, and cancer was the most frequent underlying health condition. Regarding the performed meta-analyses, crude and adjusted analyses demonstrated that tooth extraction increased the risk for MRONJ by 4.28 (95% confidence interval [95%CI]: 1.73–10.58), the OR for MRONJ by 26.94 (95%CI: 4.17–174.17), and the HR for MRONJ by 9.96 (95%CI: 4.04–24.55). Conclusion: It was concluded that performing dental procedures, especially tooth extraction, in patients using bone-modifying drugs increased the risk of MRONJ occurrence and, therefore, should be avoided. Further studies, using adjusted data, are warranted.

AbstractIndonesia is a multicultural country characterized by its diverse ethnicities, tribes and religions. Laws be it national and international have been regulating the protection of human rights, including the right to be recognized as an individual, right of equality before the law, religious rights, as well as the right to participate in government. Identity politics has made the rights of minorities less significant as discrimination against individuals or groups coming from minority class with different background exists. The plurality of society (plures) cannot be eliminated for the sake of the jargon of unity (unum), because unity must be achieved through the existence of plurality. Facts in various cases, the element of religious pluralism is often accused as a trigger factor or even the cause of social conflict and collective violence. This accusation is certainly not entirely wrong, because not a few people who use religion as justification in achieving political goals and interests. The result of this research shows the existence of human rights violations caused by identity politics.Keywords: Human Rights; Identity Politics; Discrimination.

Overmacht Sebagai Batas Tanggung Gugat PT. PLN (PERSERO) Pada Kasus Blackout
Authors: Humaidi Rizqi Alfath Syaif
Published: August 2022

AbstractAlmost every aspect of human life is affected by electricity. Various types of human activities require electricity from preparing food, doing work through computers, using electronic devices, or street lighting, requiring electricity input. Indonesia handed over the management of electricity supply to PT. PLN (Persero) as the BUMN that is responsible for this matter. Blackout often results in losses for many parties so that they often make good claims on the basis of acts against the law to default. However, lawsuits filed to PT. PLN (Persero) often fails because of the argument of overmacht argued by the attorney of PT. PLN (Persero). This is based on PT. PLN (Persero) considers that the events that caused the Blackout were caused by things outside their control. This is in line with the concept of overmacht which negates the accountability of one of the parties who did not do what was promised if it was caused by events outside his control such as natural disasters. However, if the blackout is caused by negligence of PT. PLN (Persero) then they must be held accountable for losses incurred. Keywords: Overmacht; Force Majeure; Electricity; Blackout; Damages.
AbstrakDalam menjalani kehidupan, ada banyak jenis energi atau tenaga yang digunakan oleh manusia salah satunya ialah tenaga listrik. Indonesia menyerahkan pengurusan penyediaan tenaga listrik kepada PT. PLN (Persero) sebagai BUMN yang bertanggung jawab mengenai hal tersebut. Hal ini disebabkan oleh di dalam Konstitusi Indonesia mewajibkan penguasaan sumber daya yang mempengaruhi hajat hidup orang banyak. PT. PLN (Persero) dalam melaksanakan tugasnya tak jarang menemui kendala sehingga distribusi tenaga listrik yang seharusnya dapat dialirkan dengan normal tidak dapat dipenuhi sehingga menyebabkan Blackout. Seringkali Blackout yang terjadi menyebabkan kerugian bagi banyak pihak sehingga tak jarang mereka melakukan gugatan baik dengan dasar perbuatan melawan hukum hingga wanprestasi. Namun, gugatan-gugatan yang dilayangkan kepada PT. PLN (Persero) seringkali gagal karena dalil overmacht yang didalilkan kuasa hukum PT. PLN (Persero). Hal ini didasari karena PT. PLN (Persero) beranggapan bahwa kejadian yang menyebabkan Blackout disebabkan oleh hal di luar kendali mereka. Hal ini sejalan dengan konsep overmacht yang meniadakan tanggung gugat salah satu pihak yang tidak melakukan apa yang dijanjikan apabila hal tersebut dikarenakan oleh kejadian di luar kendalinya seperti bencana alam. Namun, bila kejadian blackout disebabkan oleh kelalaian PT. PLN (Persero) maka mereka wajib bertanggung gugat atas kerugian yang timbul. Kata Kunci: Overmacht; Blackout; Listrik; Ganti Rugi.

AbstractThis paper discusses the protection for KPPS members who died in the 2019 elections. Based on article 22E paragraph (1) UUD NRI 1945, election in Indonesia are held every five years. The first election in Indonesia were held in 1955. The elections in 2019 which fell on April 17 were different from the elections on the previous period. The first time in Indonesia the 2019 elections were held silmutaneously. Where Indonesian citizens choose five state institutions namely the President and Vice President, DPR RI, Provincial DPRD, City/Regency DPRD, and DPD simultaneous election is expected to be efficient both in terms of time, funds and personnel. But in reality, many KPPS members have died while carrying out their duties. This is due to increase in workload compared to the previous election period. In addition, the working hours of KPPS members are not regulated in detail either in the Election Law or PKPU made by the KPU. Based on this, there is a need for rules governing more detailed right for KPPS members. Keywords: Legal Protection; Election Organizer; KPPS Member Rights; Death.

Authors: M. Tasa Firdausi Nuzula
Published: August 2022

AbstractDeath Penalty is one of the controversial sanctions. In its application, there are some parties who refuse to be applied under the pretext of capital punishment contrary to basic human rights, namely the right to life. The Indonesian government is still implementing the sanction of capital punishment in its legal system. The application and implementation of capital punishment in Indonesia is inseparable from some formal regulations owned by Indonesia, one of which is SE Jampidum 3/1994. SE Jampidum 3/1994 said that the execution could only be carried out after the 30-day Death Setence. Even though in practice death row inmates are required to undergo a waiting period of decades in the prison. The waiting period for execution is not only about a long time but also arises due to the process of fulfilling the rights of the convicted person. This type of research is a Reformed Oriented Research by using the legal approach and conceptual approach. The purpose of this study is to find the right waiting time for death row inmates while waiting in the prison. Keywords: Death Penalty; Execution of Death Penalty; Waiting Time for Death Execution; Rights of Death Penalty.
AbstrakPidana Mati merupakan salah satu sanksi yang kontrovesial. Dalam Penerapannya terdapat beberpa pihak yang menolak untuk diterapkan dengan dalih pidana mati bertentangan dengan hak dasar manusia yaitu hak untuk hidup. Pemerintah Indonesia sampai saat ini masih menerapkan pemberlakuan sanksi pidana mati dalam sistem hukumnya. Penerapan dan penjalanan eksekusi pidana mati di Indonsia tidak lepas dari beberapa aturan formiil yang dimiliki Indonesia, yang salah satunya yaitu SE Jampidum 3/1994. SE Jampidum 3/1994 menyatakan bahwa eksekusi mati barudapat dilaksanakan setelah lewat 30 hari putusan inkracht. Padahal dalam praktiknya terpidana mati diharuskan menjalani masa tunggu selama berpuluh-puluh tahun di dalam LAPAS. Masa tunggu eksekusi tidak hanya mengenai waktu yang lama namun juga muncul akibat proses pemenuhan hak-hak terpidana. Tipe penelitian ini adalah Reform Oriented Research dengan menggunakan metode pendekatan perundang-undangan dan pendekatan konseptual. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk menemukan waktu tunggu yang tepat bagi terpidana mati selama menunggu di dalam LAPAS.Kata Kunci: Pidana Mati; Ekeskusi Pidana Mati; Masa Tunggu Eksekusi Mati; Hak-Hak Terpidana Mati.

AbstractThe people are the most important element in a democratic country. Every policy formation, the government must involve the people. The process of involving the people in policy formation is called public participation. Participation can be done directly, or through representative institutions. Many laws and regulations in Indonesia regulate the process of public participation. However, there is no uniformity in laws and regulations regarding nomenclature and procedures. In its implementation, many policy formations have missed public participation. On the other hand, many people do not have the capacity to get the right to participate. Public participation can be strengthened by: harmonizing laws and regulations, establishing guidebooks, and arranging sanctions or legal consequences if participation is not implemented. Even though it is a dilemma, public participation must still be carried out. Keywords: Public Participation; laws and regulation; Public Participation Process.
AbstrakRakyat merupakan unsur terpenting dalam negara demokrasi. Setiap pembentukan kebijakan, pemerintah wajib melibatkan rakyat. Proses terlibatnya rakyat dalam pembentukan kebijakan disebut partisipasi masyarakat. Partisipasi dapat dilakukan secara langsung, maupun melalui lembaga perwakilan. Peraturan perundang-undangan di Indonesia sudah banyak yang mengatur mengenai proses partisipasi masyarakat. Namun, tidak ada keseragaman pada peraturan perundang-undangan mengenai nomenklatur dan prosedurnya. Dalam pelaksanaannya banyak pembentukan kebijakan yang melewatkan partisipasi masyarakat. Di lain sisi, banyak masyarakat yang tidak memiliki kapasitas untuk mendapatkan hak partisipasi tersebut. Partisipasi masyarakat dapat diperkuat dengan cara: melakukan harmonisasi peraturan perundang-undangan, pembentukan buku panduan, serta pengaturan sanksi atau akibat hukum apabila partisipasi tidak dijalankan. Sekalipun sebuah dilema, partisipasi masyarakat tetap harus terlaksana.Kata Kunci: Partisipasi Masyarakat; Peraturan Perundang-Undangan; Proses Partisipasi Masyarakat.

AbstractThe village chief as the party who holds the power of village financial management can maximize the village's original income through the management of village assets, one of which is through the management of the village market. However, in practice it is not uncommon for problems such as the determination of the amount of retribution that is not in accordance with the legality of government acts. This study tries to examine the extent to which the authority of the village chief in collecting village market retributions as well as his responsibilities and accountability in case of abuse of authority or poor management. This research is a normative study using a statute approach, conceptual approach, and historical approach. Based on the analysis conducted, Law No. 6 of 2014 along with its derivative laws and regulations attributively states that the village government has the authority to manage village markets as well as to collect retributions for the use of village markets. The authority of the village government to collect retributions is only limited to what has been stipulated in village regulations. In addition, the village chief is also the party responsible and accountable if something goes wrong in the management of village market retributions. Keywords: Village Government; Village Market; Village Retributions.
AbstrakKepala desa sebagai pihak yang memegang kekuasaan pengelolaan keuangan desa dapat memaksimalkan pendapatan asli desa melalui pengelolaan aset desa, salah satunya ialah melalui pengelolaan pasar desa. Namun dalam pelaksanaannya tidak jarang terjadi permasalahan seperti penetapan besaran retribusi yang tidak sesuai dengan keabsahan tindakan pemerintah. Penelitian ini mencoba menilik sejauh mana kewenangan kepala desa dalam memungut retribusi pasar desa serta tanggung jawab dan tanggung gugatnya apabila terjadi penyalahgunaan wewenang atau pengelolaan yang kurang baik. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian normatif dengan menggunakan pendekatan perundang-undangan, pendekatan konsep, dan pendekatan historis. Berdasarkan analisis yang telah dilakukan, UU No. 6 Tahun 2014 beserta peraturan perundang-undangan turunannya secara atributif menyatakan bahwa pemerintah desa memiliki kewenangan dalam mengelola pasar desa sekaligus memungut retribusi atas pemanfaatan pasar desa. Kewenangan pemerintah desa untuk memungut retribusi hanyalah sebatas pada yang telah ditetapkan dalam peraturan desa.

A bananeira apresenta diversos problemas fitossanitários, tendo destaque a murcha de Fusarium causada pelo fungo Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc).  O uso de microrganismos como o Pseudomonas, tem sido uma alternativa para o biocontrole dos fitopatógenos. Com o objetivo de investigar a capacidade de controle da rizobactéria do gênero Pseudomonas em relação à atividade do fungo Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), foi realizado dois experimentos em condições de casa de vegetação. O delineamento foi inteiramente casualizados (DIC) com três tratamentos, três controles e 10 repetições. Os tratamentos do primeiro experimento consistiram em aplicar Pseudomonas spp. no substrato, com adição de Foc com e sem intervalo de tempo. Após período de inoculação no substrato infestado por Foc e Pseudomonas, realizou-se o plantio das mudas de bananeira nos tubetes. No segundo experimento, o intervalo de aplicações foi o mesmo do experimento de pré-inoculação, porém o Fusarium foi inoculado primeiro, posteriormente a bactéria e em seguida foram transferidos para o substrato. A utilização de Pseudomonas em tratamentos diferentes, com intervalo de tempo não foi eficiente para o controle do Foc. Observou-se que o índice de doença foi menos severo no tratamento sem intervalo de tempo para inoculação de Fusarium e Pseudomonas, sendo o melhor tratamento para o biocontrole do Fusarium em plantas de banana da cultivar Prata Anã. A utilização de bactérias do gênero Pseudomonas spp. é uma alternativa economicamente viável para controle da Murcha de Fusarium.

Evaluating the amount of refrigerant charge of a refrigeration system is quite important to predict the lifetime of the compressor, to avoid undesired pressures and consequently leakage, to reduce costs related to the electricity consumed and to minimize environmental impacts. The maintenance of such equipment is often a complicated task that requires technical abilities and time, especially when the amount of refrigerant charge is not specified on the device. Due to this, many systems work in an overcharged or undercharged mode. In this study, a simple method was applied which uses the internal volume of the condenser and evaporator pipes to determine the ideal refrigerant charge for these specific systems. The procedures were adapted from refrigerators to air conditioners of the window type. The system working with the calculated charge presented a 0.9% reduction in the COP (Coefficient of Performance) of the system and a 3.5% reduction in electricity consumption. Furthermore, the application of this method saved 10.7% of the refrigerant. In conclusion, it is worth applying this method to reduce costs with the use of refrigerant and electricity and the reduction in COP is very small.
DE VILA SANTO ANTONIO A CASA DO PORTUGUÊS: O PATRIMÔNIO CULTURAL ENQUATO FORMA SIMBÓLICA ESPACIAL INSERIDA NA PAISAGEM URBANA DE FORTALEZA - CEARÁ

Estudar o patrimônio na geografia presume primeiramente conceber a paisagem não somente como o substrato natural, mas também como construção humana, impregnada de subjetividade, pois como afirma Berque (2004) a paisagem é ao mesmo tempo marca, pois corresponde as construções humanas desenvolvidas na transformação da paisagem; e matriz, pois participa dos esquemas de percepção humanas, correspondendo aos seus aspectos simbólicos. Esta concepção se faz essencial para os estudos do patrimônio, sobretudo, os materiais, pela geografia, pois estes se configuram como formas espaciais cristalizadas na paisagem, eivadas de significados adquiridos no transcorrer do tempo pelos diferentes grupos sociais que com eles conviveram. Desta forma, o presente artigo buscou compreender o patrimônio cultural como forma simbólica espacial, tendo como objeto de estudo a Casa do Português, localizada na Avenida João Pessoa, no bairro Damas em Fortaleza – CE, percebendo os múltiplos significados concedidos pelos moradores do bairro e por aqueles que transitam na região com relação a esta forma simbólica espacial.
