Authors: Bruno Lara Ysabel , Mendoza Lawrence , Tadeo Jerico , Vitobina Crugie Boy
Published: May 2023

Green marketing is a growing concept connecting sustainable internal business operations and corporate social responsibilities. Hence, the study explored the green marketing practices of selected micro and small enterprises in Cavite, Philippines. The descriptive-causal research design was utilized, and the 20 legally-registered micro and small enterprises were purposively selected. MSEs in Cavite are dominated by sole proprietors with 1-9 employees, have an estimated asset size of Php3,000,000 or less, have been in operation for 1-3 years, and have an average monthly revenue of Php20,000 and below. They employ green marketing practices such as providing safe products and services, implementing more environment-friendly ways of pollution prevention, advertising green awareness and attraction, and utilizing vehicles that consume less energy. MSEs’ green marketing practices in production, packaging, advertising, and operation are highly effective, while distribution is less effective. Business profiles and MSE have no significant difference, excluding the difference between the number of employees and the perceived effectiveness of green marketing practices in terms of operation. MSEs faced difficulties in distribution due to safety protocols and lack of resources. Thus, the study recommends personalized marketing designs to engage wider customers and social-based marketing approaches to address diverse customer preferences.

The aim of this work was to develop chickpea sweet and evaluate its physicochemical, sensory, and microbiological quality. Six formulations (F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, and F6) were used in the preparation of the sweet. After production, the sweets were packaged and stored at room temperature for further microbiological, physicochemical, and sensory analyses. Microbiological analysis of the sweets in different formulations indicated a low presence of microorganisms. The total and fecal coliform values were below 3.0 MPN/g, and the mold and yeast values were below 10 UFC/g. Physicochemical analyses showed that the chickpea sweets in different formulations did not present a significant difference in their composition, except for formulation F5, which had a lower pH value and total soluble solids, and higher moisture and ash content. Sensory analysis indicated that all formulations were well accepted by the panelists, with average ratings ranging between "liked moderately" and "liked very much" on the hedonic scale. It can be concluded that the chickpea sweet resulted in a product of good microbiological and physicochemical quality, and it was well accepted sensory by the consumers. This indicates that chickpea has good technological potential for use in sweet processing.

This paper tries to investigate the perception of the employers towards the employability skills of the new graduates in their recruitment process. The paper examines the employability skills of the Islamic business administration graduates in Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia.  The study used qualitative methodology through in-depth interviews with 31 employers in Klang Valley. Findings revealed that employers expect graduates to have a range of broader skills and attributes that include teamwork, communication, leadership, critical thinking, work independently, intellectual, and problem-solving skills. Besides, technical skills such as software proficiency, project management, data analysis, and common operating systems are also advantaging for new graduates to get offered in their companies. This paper, therefore, concludes that developing graduate employability skills and attributes should be included in faculties teaching and learning strategically. Active collaboration between university and industry with employers having a more active role is likely to have a greater and more sustained impact on graduate employability. Lastly, the need to continually promote and expand opportunities for students to access work-based learning is critical. These experiential opportunities can be an effective way of providing university students with relevant employment skills, knowledge, and awareness of employer culture. 3U1I program may be implemented to enhance graduate employability.
ZAKAT AND PRINCIPLES OF TAXATION: EQUITY, A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS WITH TAXES
Authors: Gueydi Salah
Published: May 2023

Zakat is an efficient mechanism of wealth redistribution, allowing the transfer of wealth from those having excess resources to those in need with the aim of achieving social justice. Thus, at least from this perspective, Zakat can be compared to taxes. Considering Zakat as a form of taxation, this paper attempts to apply the principle of equity and the associated criteria, elements and issues to Zakat. The paper demonstrates that the principle of equity, as envisaged in the context of taxation, is relevant for the purposes of Zakat since the latter: (i) accepts the ability to pay as a criterion for equity, (ii) applies horizontal equity and (iii) embeds a mechanism of self-compliance that tackles avoidance and evasion. The paper also demonstrates that Zakat outperforms taxes as regards the implementation of the principle of equity due to its better ability to address the issues that are generally associated with this principle, including determining and measuring equity, addressing avoidance and evasion and catering for inflation.
FUTURE ANALYSIS: HOW PHILOSOPHICAL REVAMP SHAPES FUTURE OF ISLAMIC ECONOMICS TOWARDS SUSTAINABILITY?
Authors: Wan Mahmud Khairi Wan Omar Fadhli
Published: May 2023

Almost all Islamic economists agree that Islamic Economic (IE) study is supposed to be derived holistically from Shari’ah that portrays all good values and undoubtedly leading towards sustainability. However, quite a number of Islamic Economists believe that such presupposed, deep connections between the existing IE models and sustainability values do not stand out until today due to many problems and challenges. This paper hypothesizes that the main challenge or problem is because of the improper development of its philosophical foundations. Hence, it first adopts short survey of literature review technique from the vast web research coming from Dimensions and Scopus platforms to confirm the hypothesis. Later, the paper utilizes future study analysis to analyse the desired future which is to establish IE model consisting of strong connection with sustainability axiological values from Shari’ah and its necessary steps to be taken by the researchers of this discipline to achieve it.

Published: May 2023

The research work done in this paper comprises the application of different well-known probability distribution models. This includes the understanding of the behavior and dynamics of 24 sunspot cycles with total data. The time-series data sets were selected from 1749 to 2014. To observe the solar activity effects on K-index activity the double cycles from 1932 to 2014 were also incorporated in the study. The comparative study is useful to observe the long-term solar-terrestrial connection. The magnetic field of the sun reverses its polarity after every 11 years of the cycle. So after every 22 years, the north pole becomes again north pole. By using the two well-known tests Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KST) and Anderson-Darling test (ADT) the probability distribution models were obtained for each sunspot cycles and compare. The significant probability models for all the sunspot cycles have been obtained. The fitted probability distribution models on selected data sets may be useful to understand the trend of solar and geomagnetic activity.

Published: May 2023

The majority of cytoplasmic proteins and vesicles move actively primarily to dynein motor proteins, which are the cause of muscle contraction. Moreover, identifying how dynein are used in cells will rely on structural knowledge. Cytoskeletal motor proteins have different molecular roles and structures, and they belong to three superfamilies of dynamin, actin and myosin. Loss of function of specific molecular motor proteins can be attributed to a number of human diseases, such as Charcot-Charcot-Dystrophy and kidney disease.  It is crucial to create a precise model to identify dynein motor proteins in order to aid scientists in understanding their molecular role and designing therapeutic targets based on their influence on human disease. Therefore, we develop an accurate and efficient computational methodology is highly desired, especially when using cutting-edge machine learning methods. In this article, we proposed a machine learning-based superfamily of cytoskeletal motor protein locations prediction method called extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost). We get the initial feature set All by extraction the protein features from the sequence and evolutionary data of the amino acid residues named BLOUSM62. Through our successful eXtreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), accuracy score 0.8676%, Precision score 0.8768%, Sensitivity score 0.760%, Specificity score 0.9752% and MCC score 0.7536%.  Our method has demonstrated substantial improvements in the performance of many of the evaluation parameters compared to other state-of-the-art methods. This study offers an effective model for the classification of dynein proteins and lays a foundation for further research to improve the efficiency of protein functional classification.

Business performance describes the ability of the manager of the company to perform. In micro, small, and medium companies, the owners usually act as the managers. Ideally, this performance has to be improved. Moreover, to accommodate this intention, this study investigates the related factors, like entrepreneurial orientation (EO), product innovation (PI), and co-creation value (CCV). Hence, this study aims to investigate two effects. The first is the impact of EO and CCV on PI. The second is the influence of CCV and PI on business performance. Therefore, a quantitative design is employed to examine the hypothesis by referring to this circumstance. As samples, this study uses a purposive sampling method to select 60 owners of the creative culinary industry in West Java. Additionally, this study uses a survey to collect the data, and the variance-based structural equation model to analyze the data. After processing the data, the hypotheses are tested and discussed, this research demonstrates the positive effect of EO and CCV on PI. Furthermore, a positive relationship is found between CCV and PI, and business performance. As a practical implication, entrepreneurial orientation, product innovation, and co-creation value are essential qualities for business owners to improve business performance.

Emotional relationships and legal border. Family and families in the European area from religious factors and national law to agreement strategies

ABSTRACT: The family is subject to socio-cultural changes and it is regulated differently from European legal systems. In addition, in Europe, by fall of geographical barriers and the increase of migration, there has been the spread of family models not compatible with the principles and values of the host countries resulting in legal, cultural and religious conflicts. The movement of people within the European area call for coordinated actions and/or the adoption of adaptation techniques processes to the recognition of family status and related rights. This process aims to avoid that one legal relations with internationality may undergone different and heterogeneous regulatory disciplines with implications on the effective enjoyment of fundamental rights and religious ones. This work analyzes the regulation of family law in the European judicial area to understand which path to follow in preventing that the movement of people may be hampered by the heterogeneous of national laws and the relevance of the religious factor in this context.

Digital jihadism. Freedom of religion, security, democracy

ABSTRACT: The Digital Revolution and the emergence of the Algorithmic Society made difficult the relationship between security and liberty. On the one hand, the digitalizing of terrorism and extremism has put in danger the public safety, due to misuse of social media and platform to radicalize (lone wolves), recruit, train or planning terrorist attacks. On the other hand, the public-private model of governance of speech has endangered the freedom of religion and speech, by permitting private actors to censure users, through AI and without the shield of the rule of law, under the cloak of freedom of contracts. This paper analyzes the state of the art, trying to draw a perimeter for the study of underlying issues and relationship between religion, democracy and security in the digital era.

Freedom of Religion and Security. The Test of Terrorism

ABSTRACT: The relationship between the rights of freedom, including that of religion, and security has always been controversial and currently even more because of the fear, perceived even when not real as in Italy, of the jihadist terrorism, to which there is a risk of sacrificing the freedom to profess and propagate the Islamic religion. This essay tests the Italian jurisprudence in this regard and argues the need for balancing so that the security requirements are guaranteed by the counter-limit of the supreme principles of the Constitution and in particular by the human dignity.

A "bloodhound" at the “Last Supper”: religious references in commercial communication under scrutiny by the Italian Advertising Self-Regulation Institute

ABSTRACT: Since the birth of commercial advertising there has been a widespread use of religious references in the creation of promotional material, in some cases even distorting, trivializing, or exploiting the representations of the Sacred symbols. So, it is important to properly to understand whether and within what limits the use of religious references in advertising should be admitted, as well as the possible protection that can be granted to religious sentiment which may be harmed by such use. Starting from the recent case relating to the segugio.it commercial, this contribution examines the issue with regard to the provisions contained in an important soft law instrument of the Italian legal system, i.e. the Advertising Self-Regulatory Code, and the rulings made in its application by the decision-making bodies of the Advertising Self-Regulation Institute.

The present study deals with calcareous nannoplankton paleoenvironmental and biostratigraphic implications as well as the genesis and the stratigraphic significance of an event bed recognized from the middle Eocene Beni Suef Formation in the sections of Gebel Na’alun (Fayoum area) and Gebel Homret Shaibun (Beni Suef area), Egypt. Calcareous nannoplankton biostratigraphy indicates that the Beni Suef Formation in the two areas is synchronous, covering an interval that may be correlated with the calcareous nannoplankton Zone NP17. Paleoenvironmental implications from calcareous nannoplankton suggests deposition of sediments in the Beni Suef Formation under relatively stable, temperate and mesotrophic conditions, with a short interval of eutrophication in the basal part of the Homret Shaibun section.
Svevo in Francia negli anni Trenta: le traduzioni in due antologie e nella rivista «Dante»
Authors: Perosa Giulia
Published: May 2023

Il contributo indaga un’area ancora poco esplorata della mediazione e della circolazione francesi dell’opera di Svevo negli anni Trenta. Per farlo, vengono presi in esame sia i paratesti e le scelte editoriali delle traduzioni apparse su due antologie (1931, 1933) e sulla rivista «Dante. Revue de culture latine», sia i carteggi della moglie di Svevo con Paul-Henri Michel, uno dei traduttori francesi nonché tramite per la pubblicazione dell’antologia del 1931, e con Lionello Fiumi, curatore dell’antologia del 1933 e direttore di «Dante».

The French translations of Svevo’s works in two anthologies and in the journal «Dante» (1931-1940)

The paper explores a rather unexplored area of the mediation and circulation of Svevo’s oeuvre in France in the Thirties. It does so by focusing on a) the paratexts accompanying the translations and the editorial choices adopted in two anthologies (1931, 1933) and in the journal «Dante. Revue de culture latine»; b) the correspondence of Livia Veneziani, Svevo’s wife, with one of Svevo’s French translators, Paul-Henri Michel, as well as with Lionello Fiumi, the editor of the anthology of 1933 and the director of the journal «Dante».

Post-Apocalyptic Amazement: Aesthetics and Historical Consciousness in the Natural Contract
Authors: Hildebrandt Toni
Published: May 2023

The intention of my essay is to introduce the concept of “natural-history” (Naturgeschichte) to foster dialogue on the role of art, aesthetics, and historiography in speculative materialism and the wider debates around the Anthropocene. I will present my argument in four steps: The first will be a brief reconstruction of the natural contract as conceived by Michel Serres in Le Contrat naturel (1990). Since in his essay Serres largely dispenses with an aesthetics, in my second step I will argue that at the same time the utopian model of the new, human-built environment, Biosphere 2 (1991) manifested exactly an aesthetics as suggested in legal-theoretical terms by Serres. In the third step, using the example of three films by Ben Rivers, one of which is specifically about Biosphere 2, I will show that the potential of utopian ideals is preserved in their realization only insofar as it is documented in images of transience that may be identified as allegorical representations. This implies a critique of the concept of utopia. In a fourth step, I will therefore show that the natural contract’s utopian body of ideas and the manifestation of the utopian concept in Biosphere 2 can be viewed from a historical-philosophical perspective, with reference to the allegorical representation of the film, as the fate of all nature in which history inscribes itself. To that end, Benjamin’s formulation of “fallen nature” [gefallene Natur] will need to be differentiated here. This selective counter-reading of Serres against Benjamin and the films of Ben Rivers ultimately aims at the restitution of a historical-philosophical argument to the status of art in the natural contract or—in a broader sense—in the Anthropocene; more precisely, it also pursues the conception of an aesthetics of amazement in post-apocalyptic narrative time.

Four non-linear functions, viz., Exponential, Logistic, Schumacher and Chapman-Richards were fitted for bole biomass, total wood biomass and bole volume (over bark) of Azadirachta indica. The functions were fitted using 13.5 years old trees data and explanatory variables ‘D’and ‘D2H’, where D- diameter at breast height and H- height of tree. The goodness of fitted models was judged by mean square error and adjusted R2 criteria. These models were also subjected to graphical analysis for selecting best model. In case of bole biomass and total wood biomass, the Logistic models B1 = 82.882[1 + exp (1.908-9.443 D2H)]-1 and B2 = 156.677[1 + exp (1.963-9.897 D2H)]-1; where B1- bole biomass in kg/tree, B2- total wood biomass in kg/tree; were found to be best fit. Whereas in case of bole volume, the Chapman-Richards model V= 0.99[1 – exp (-0.259 D2H)]0.969, where V- bole volume (over bark) in m3/tree, was found best fit on the basis of statistical and graphical criteria. Hence, the proposed models may be used for estimating the bole biomass, total wood biomass and bole volume (over bark) of Azadirachta indica tree in semi-arid region with reasonable accuracy.

The management of State-Owned Goods is highly necessary with the aim of organizing and managing state-owned goods within the university environment to achieve the implementation and good management of state-owned goods in accordance with government regulations, thus achieving the optimization of State-Owned Goods management in the university environment. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach. The object of the study is the management of State-Owned Goods with the subjects being the university community, namely students and State-Owned Goods managers. Data collection techniques include observation, interviews, and documentation, with data analysis techniques in the form of reduction and analysis. The results of this study indicate that the optimization of State-Owned Goods management in improving campus services at the State Islamic University of North Sumatra is still not optimal. The large number of facilities that are slow to maintain and repair make students feel uncomfortable in the campus environment. Although the management of state-owned goods has implemented regulations related to State-Owned Goods management, it has not yet had a significant impact on the campus community, especially for students.

Published: May 2023

Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the world. Globally, nearly one-sixth of deaths are caused by cancer. Cancer raise wide attention from the researcher in recent years, chemotherapy is the main cancer treatment, but chemotherapy has many side effects, the common effects are weight loss, hair loss, and figure. These side effects will bring many pains for patients, as result, sciences made a research to reduce the suffering for patients. In this article, the research method of archival research is used to retrieve the relevant research on the side effects of chemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy. By reviewing the previous literature on chemotherapy, we can understand the history, classification, and mechanism of chemotherapy. Through the relevant research on chemical side effects and side effect adjuvant therapy, the following conclusions can be drawn. The common side effects of chemotherapy are bone marrow suppression, gastrointestinal adverse reactions, neutrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, and easily overlooked taste change. The adjuvant treatments are Chinese herbal therapy, physical therapy, trace element therapy, and psychological therapy. It provides a basis for future medical researchers to study the side effects and auxiliary treatment of chemotherapy, and non-medical researchers can have a clear understanding of chemotherapy. At the same time, it provides a research direction of possibility and increases the interest for my future study.
The Role of Spontaneous Thoughts in Human Cognition
Authors: Huang Simin
Published: May 2023

Spontaneous thought is a cognitive process that ubiquitously happens in daily life. Humans spend 30-50% of their lives in spontaneous thinking, but the impact and consequence of spontaneous thought have not been widely studied in cognitive neuroscience. It is crucial to expand the research involving spontaneous thought since it benefits human's memory encoding and decision-making abilities. This review has two main aims: the first is to explore the cognitive impact of goal-directed and spontaneous thought; the second is to discover the benefits of spontaneous thought to humans. This paper concludes that spontaneous thought has the role of improving memory encoding and facilitating future planning.
A Review of Innovated Treatment for Gliomas
Authors: Tian Zhiyang
Published: May 2023

Brain tumors are difficult to be totally cured , and also associated with high rates of mortality and morbidty, therefore the therapy is always a hot issue.This review introduces glioma treatment techniques through literature summarization and qualitative analysis. According to the data, technologies that can improve median survival and potentially substitute contemporary techniques during the treatment, including photon therapy, and hyperthermia. Moreover, some techniques can improve the accuracy and safety of surgical, such as Intraoperative Neuromonitoring and Neuronavigation During Resection. Other treatment methods, such as gene therapy and immunotherapy, are feasible based on their principles. However, their current effects have not reached expectations, so they are not widely used at this stage, and further innovation and experimental proof are needed.
