Published: February 2022

Desa Paya Perupuk dikenal sebagai sentra industri makanan ringan dodol yang sudah ada sejak tahun 1946 yang dirintis oleh M. Isa.  Lokasi Desa Perupuk yang sangat strategis, yaitu di pinggir jalan lintas Sumatera Utara-Aceh, berjejer kios-kios penjual dodol sepanjang 500 meter memberikan keuntungan sendiri dalam memasarkan dan memperkenalkan dodol Tanjung Pura. Sampai saat ini ada dua kelompok usaha bersama yaitu UPPKS (Usaha Peningkatan Pendapatan Keluarga Sejahtera) Mentari 1 dan UPPKS Mentari 2. Menurut para mitra (pengusaha dodol) hingga saat ini proses pengolahan dodol masih secara tradisional yaitu proses pengadukan adonan dodolnya secara manual selama ± 4 jam dengan menggunakan tenaga manusia yang mayoritas dikerjakan ibu-ibu penduduk desa setempat usia paruh baya (usia 35 s.d 50 tahun). Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat (PPM) USU bersama mitra sepakat memprioritaskan permasalahan yang ada yaitu pada proses pengadukkan adonan dodol saat pemasakan dodol, saat ini pengadukkan masih dikerjakan secara manual menggunakan tenaga manusia dan memakan waktu yang lama. Solusi yang ditawarkan tim PPM yaitu merancang alat pengaduk mekanis pada proses pemasakan dodol dan mengganti tungku pemasakan yang semula menggunakan kayu bakar dengan tungku gas LPG agar proses waktu pemasakan lebih cepat dan mengurangi pencemaran udara. Dengan adanya bantuan alat pengaduk mekanis ini, proses produksi dodol menjadi lebih ringan, dan kapasitas produksi bisa meningkat menjadi 2 kali lipat per hari.

Beraneka-ragam tanaman secara produktif tumbuh dan berkembang di lahan-lahan Indonesia. Keberlimpahan akan lahan tani memotivasi mayoritas penduduk lokal bercocok tanam menyesuaikan kondisi alamnya. Akan tetapi apabila suplai air kurang, tanaman-tanaman di lokasi sawah mempunyai profil batang yang pendek, berbuahnya cenderung lambat, peranakannya juga tidak sebanyak yang selalu mendapat air. Teknologi pertanian tenaga surya sering berkaitan dengan teori PV. Energi matahari telah menunjukkan harapan yang luar biasa untuk aplikasi pertanian selama beberapa tahun terakhir. Studi ini mengeksplorasi potensial tenaga surya dengan mengeksplorasi data-data yang didapat dari software bebas teknologi energi surya, termasuk temperatur, waktu radiasi matahari, dan tenaga panas matahari. Oleh karena itu, membuat kajian data potensi energi sebelum memasang PV dapat menguntungkan petani sekitar. Desa Bendosewu memiliki potensi energi sinar matahari sepanjang tahun rata-rata sebesar 1831 kWh/m2 dan rata-rata suhu udara tahunan sebesar 25.9 °C. Sehingga, modul PV bekerja dengan optimal karena suhu yang sejuk dan intensitas matahari sepanjang tahun.

Strategi Peningkatan Mutu Gula Merah Aren Menjadi Gula Semut Di Lingkungan Lomban Lobu, Kecamatan Arse, Kabupaten Tapanuli Selatan

Published: February 2022

Sejak dahulu gula merah aren sangat terkenal sebagai sentra dari Kota Sipirok yang merupakan ibu kota Kabupaten Tapanuli Selatan, Propinsi Sumatera Utara. Kecamatan yang paling banyak menghasilkan gula aren (merah) cetak adalah Kecamatan Arse. Gula aren Sipirok terkenal keasliannya, rasanya enak dan wanginya yang khas. Pengrajin gula aren di Sipirok sebagian besar masih memproduksi gula aren dalam bentuk cetak, padahal saat ini konsumen lebih menyukai gula aren dalam bentuk gula semut karena mudah dan praktis dalam penggunaannya. Tingginya permintaan pasar gula semut di Sumatera Utara belum bisa mengimbangi besarnya kapasitas produksi para petani. Hal ini disebabkan masih sedikitnya pengrajin gula aren yang memproduksi gula semut. Permasalahan mendasar dalam memproduksi gula semut aren adalah karena masih minimnya pengetahuan tentang cara membuat gula semut, harga peralatan produksi yang cukup mahal dan kurangnya pemahaman terhadap prospek ekonomi bisnis gula semut. Proses produksi saat ini masih menggunakan cara tradisional dan membutuhkan waktu yang lama. Selain itu, produksi yang dihasilkan tidak memiliki quality control. Untuk menghasilkan produksi gula semut yang baik, kadar air gula semut harus di bawah angka 3% agar dapat tahan sampai 2 tahun masa penyimpanan (dalam kondisi kedap). Untuk mencapai kondisi ini, dibutuhkan suatu alat oven pengering untuk mengurangi kadar air pada gula semut. Tim PPM USU telah memberikan satu unit alat oven pengering dengan kapasitas 24 Kg dilengkapi dengan kondensor suhu, dan waktu. Dengan adanya bantuan alat oven pengering, kualitas produk gula semut aren yang dihasilkan dari segi warna dan kadar air terkontrol, produksi semakin baik dan meningkat.

Teasing, Jokes and Directives in Cerito Mang Juhai Uncle Juhai stories: A discourse analysis of humorous texts in Palembang Malay
Authors: Susi Herti Afriani
Published: February 2022

This paper discusses teasing, jokes and directives in ten written Uncle Juhai stories (Cerito Mang Juhai) in Palembang Malay in Indonesia. Palembang Malay is one of the local languages in Indonesia, hereafter referred to as Palembangnese. Uncle Juhai stories are popular texts in Palembang City and are widely read because they are published in one of the city’s major newspapers. The figure of Mang Juhai in particular is a popular mascot in Palembang [1]. This paper identifies distinct cultural-linguistic practices in the texts [2]. In highlighting these practices this research contributes to the limited literature in this area and raises interest and awareness across generations about Palembangnese humour and its role in Palembang society. This mixed-method study uses a discourse analysis approach [3] The transcripts were transcribed based on discourse transcription to show the location of laughter [4-7]. The texts were translated into English and examined by data notations and cultural explanations. The theory of affective face and affiliation alignment [8] informed the analysis. The results show practices that are distinctive to Palembangnese humour. The practices of kelakar (jokes), teasing and directives occur frequently in Uncle Juhai stories. This paper asserts these humorous practices help to make Palembangnese society more cohesive because the humour and directives in the Uncle Juhai stories also represent expressions of solidarity [8]. In addition, the results depict the association of humour and directives as a sequence pattern and show the relationship of solidarity, face, and politeness in Palembangnese. In Palembangnese, native speakers promote affective face (informality) rather than competence face (formality) in building relationships in daily conversations. This paper contributes insights into Palembangnese culture and society, promotes awareness of face in Palembangnese culture and shows how humour helps to maintain Palembangnese solidarity and traditions.

Authors: Aprili Yanti
Published: February 2022

This research describes the humor strategy that is realized by the preachers in conveying the syiar of Islam to the congregation. The intelligence of the preachers in using lexical variations in the elements of their da'wah aims to enliven a warm atmosphere during the da'wah process to arouse their religiosity and open new views to the congregation that humor requires cognitive intelligence to be able to understand the situation and social life of the community. The function of humor is presented by preachers in their preaching as a means of conveying orders, advice, appeals, criticisms and prohibitions on religious issues and social diseases. This research uses semantic inquiry theory. In humor, there is an implicit language that needs to be explored with inquiry semantic theory. The research method used qualitative descriptive with matching and agih techniques. The results showed that presenting a humor requires intelligence in processing sentences and intellectual experience in developing the da'wah's hasanah in preaching. The results showed that the lexical humor conveyed by the preachers was a social criticism and a community phenomenon that varied according to the situation during preaching (momentum). Humor is a figuristic amplifier of preaching in strengthening the intent and purpose of his preaching.

Carmín tropical: entre continuidades, transgresiones e inversiones al género
Authors:   Tecnológico de Monterrey, Maza Pérez Maximiliano , Frías Luis Gerardo
Published: February 2022

Carmín tropical (2014), de Rigoberto Perezcano, es un filme que ofrece una relectura posmoderna del cine negro, al reinterpretar algunos elementos narrativos y estilísticos propios de dicho género cinematográfico, en una historia que oscila entre continuidades y transgresiones vinculadas a la representación de los roles de género, particularmente la de la identidad muxe, reconocida como un tercer género dentro de la cultura zapoteca del estado de Oaxaca, México. Por una parte, la película admite la continuidad de convenciones narrativas, trazadas a partir de la articulación entre cine negro y melodrama, que contribuyen a reforzar estereotipos de género. Por otro lado, la introducción de un personaje muxe como investigadora de un crimen, que transgrede el arquetipo genérico del detective varón heterosexual, permite que la película cuestione las fronteras invisibles que existen entre la asimilación y aceptación de las personas transgénero y su vulnerabilidad y precariedad. Finalmente, al invertir las convenciones estilísticas del cine negro, particularmente la puesta en escena, Carmín tropical propone un nuevo conjunto de significantes a los significados tradicionales de un género cinematográfico que, como el cine negro, rompió e invirtió las prácticas cinematográficas convencionales de su época.

The various social restrictions imposed to contain the spread of COVID-19 virus have brought unprecedented disruptions in people’s lifestyle. The academic institutions were caught unprepared and had to adjust abruptly. With this, we assessed how working adults in a state university in rural Philippines are coping with the disruptions brought by the pandemic. We conducted a cross-sectional online survey on May 18 to 23, 2020 where 133 working adults from the Visayas State University, Leyte, Philippines responded to the survey. Results show that the top most rank coping mechanism for both men and women is doing household chores. Results further suggest that men are more inclined to surfing the net and use social media while women focus more on praying and gardening. Pets are considered as an important companion to cope better with the pandemic. Our results highlight differences in coping mechanisms between working men and women in dealing with the pandemic. Empirical findings suggest that working adults with diversified activities and engaged more in physical activities such as household chores and gardening tend to cope better during lockdowns. In addition, income and access to internet are significant determinants of coping mechanisms. Policy makers and administrators in state university in Philippines may benefit from understanding gender differences in coping with the pandemic and can tailor approaches that may contribute to wellbeing issues among working adults.
How universal generalization works according to natural reason
Authors: Hodge Kyle
Published: February 2022

Universal Generalization, if it is not the most poorly understood inference rule in natural deduction, then it is the least well explained or justified. The inference rule is, prima facie, quite ambitious: on the basis of a fact established of one thing, I may infer that the fact holds of every thing in the class to which the one belongs—a class which may contain indefinitely many things. How can such an inference be made with any confidence as to its validity or ability to preserve truth from premise to conclusion? My goal in this paper is to explain how Universal Generalization works in a way that makes sense of its ability to preserve truth. In doing so, I shall review common accounts of Universal Generalization and explain why they are inadequate or are explanatorily unsatisfying. Happily, my account makes no ontological or epistemological presumptions and therefore should be compatible with whichever ontological or epistemological schemes the reader prefers.
Competitive Dynamics between Physical and Virtual Markets in Multiplex Networks
Authors: Díez-Echavarría Luisa , Gutiérrez-Gutiérrez Gerardo , Ríos-Echeverri Diana Carolina
Published: February 2022

Despite having interesting results of analyzing the adoption of e-commerce using social networks, diffusion does not occur in a single-layered network. There is sufficient evidence that game theory, complex networks and Theory of Planned Behavior are suitable frameworks to represent some part of the dynamics of innovation diffusion. However, it is necessary to integrate this methodological triplet to accept that an emergent behavior is generated by more real causes. We analyzed the effect of the multiplex topology when people decide to make transactions through virtual or physical channels, and found that connectivity is a key issue when managing the agent’s behavior. This also translates into greater coordination in the agents' decisions. When a multiplex is formed by at least one network with very efficient information flow, this network will govern the dynamics affecting channel selection and will also reduce transaction uncertainty. In addition, we found that investing in connectivity is worthwhile when trust is low in at least one channel; otherwise, it does not have enough impact to increase current transactions. This article makes a significant methodological contribution by showing a new way to analyze the impact of multiplex social networks, as well as a practical contribution by evidencing the effects of the structures on both intentions and actions.

Finanzas socialmente responsables
Authors: Vega Cadena Uzziel Japhet , Tamayo Garza José Francisco
Published: February 2022

Los comentarios negativos alrededor de las finanzas por conductas que no siempre procuran el bien común, que buscan beneficio económico individual o que inclusive llevan a cabo acciones en contra de otros para obtener este beneficio, han tenido como soporte aludir que dichos comportamientos son inherentes al ser humano y por consecuencia se ven reflejados en su quehacer financiero; pero a pesar de que el funcionamiento capitalista parece estar basado en un comportamiento egoísta privilegiando un beneficio individual, existen esfuerzos del ser humano donde se visualiza un componente solidario y cooperativo; ambos elementos no están desvinculados y es posible unirlos dando con esto origen a la responsabilidad social que se consolida como una respuesta a las preocupaciones entre lo financiero, social, ético y económico. La responsabilidad social es más que una moda, independientemente del interés que las empresas tienen por mejorar su entorno de manera deliberada o el mismo entorno que ahora las obliga para trabajar en temas sociales activamente, es innegable que una empresa que no tiene prácticas en éste sentido paga un precio alto, por otro lado la empresa socialmente responsable que contribuye además a la calidad de la vida de sus empleados, preserva y cuidar el entorno y medio ambiente e incluye por supuesto buenas prácticas en sus actividades financieras con frecuencia se ven recompensadas en sus dividendos. Cada vez más empresas demuestran que el éxito y ser socialmente responsable es posible y promueven beneficios para los grupos de interés y con ello el aumento en las ventas y utilidades, generan un círculo virtuoso que incluye apoyo a la formación de los empleados e inversión social en estrecha relación con la construcción de tejido social, mejoran con ello su reputación con prácticas que garantizan poder contar en el futuro con fuentes de recursos provenientes del medio ambiente.

Published: February 2022

The application of biochar may enhance the yield of potato for different processing categories. A field experiment was conducted at Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka-1207, during the period from November, 2020 to April, 2021 to find out the response of biochar on yield of potato for different processing categories. The experiment comprised of Potato varieties (3): V1: BARI Alu-29 (Courage), V2: BARI Alu-28 (Lady Rosetta) and V3: BARI Alu-25 (Asterix) and Biochar level (5): B0: 0 t ha-1, B1: 2.50 t ha-1, B2: 5.00 t ha-1 and B3: 7.50 t ha-1 and B4: 10 t ha-1. The study was laid out in a randomized complete block design with 3 replications. The results showed that biochar amendment could enhance the yield of processing category potato. The total yield and marketable yield of potato gradually increased with increasing biochar level. The results also revealed that the processing category potato viz., canned, chips and French fry potato yield progressively increased with advancing biochar level irrespective of varieties except dehydrated category. In case of marketable yield, BARI Alu-25 and BARI Alu-29 with biochar level 5 to 10 t ha-1performed superior than other combinations and produced 19.50 to 21.30 t ha-1which are 18.54 to 36.45% higher than without biochar. The combination of V2B4 produced maximum canned (8.10 t ha-1) and dehydrated potato (10.09t ha-1) but V3B4 made significantly highest chips (9.03 t ha-1) and French fry (5.70 t ha-1) potato, whereas, BARI Alu-29 and BARI Alu-28 did not produce any French fry category potato. However, the level of biochar of 5 to 10 t ha-1 could enhance processing category potato production. It may be concluded that potato growers may apply biochar along with recommended rate of other fertilizers for producing maximum processing category potato.

Background: Central venous catheter (CVC) is usually inserted into subclavian, internal jugular, orfemoral vein in critically ill patients. CVCs are associated with intravascular (infectious, thrombotic) andmechanical complications. CVC related deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is a common intravascularcomplication.Objectives: To see the variation in occurrence of CVC related deep venous thrombosis according todifferent insertion site.
Method: It was a prospective observational study conducted in dept. of Critical Care Medicine, BIRDEMGeneral Hospital; during a period of May, 2016 to July, 2019. Purposive sampling was conducted in patientsfulfilling the selection criteria. The CVCs were percutaneously inserted using the Seldinger techniquewith standard operating procedure. After CVC insertion, patients were followed up daily to see any signof deep venous thrombosis. After catheter removal [due to any cause including suspected catheterrelated blood stream infection (CRBSI), DVT, mechanical cause], all the study patients were investigated byduplex ultrasonography (USG) within 2 days for detection of venous thrombosis. The outcome wascatheter related deep venous thrombosis (DVT).
Results: A total 349 patients, of which 167 (47.9%) patients had CVC in subclavian, 88 (25.2%) in internaljugular and 94 (26.9%) in femoral vein. Total 12 patients were suspected to have catheter related DVT, but11(3.2%) patients were confirmed as DVT by duplex USG. DVT occurred significantly higher in femoralcatheter site (8.5%) than subclavian (1.8%) and internal jugular site (0%).
Conclusion: The occurrence of catheter related DVT was higher in femoral site than other two sites.

Published: February 2022

Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a notorious gram-negative bacterium that has become a globalpublic health concern owing to the emergence of multi- and pandrug-resistant strains. This study sought todetermine the antibiotic susceptibility profile of P. aeruginosa in a tertiary medical center from Malaysia.
Materials and Methods: Each isolate’s identity was confirmed using the VITEK 2 GN kit, and subjectedto antibiotic susceptibility testing using the VITEK 2 AST-N374 card (for testing against piperacillintazobactam,ceftazidime, cefepime, imipenem, meropenem, amikacin, gentamicin and ciprofloxacin) andEtest strips (for testing against doripenem and polymyxin B). Isolates which were not susceptible to >1carbapenem were tested for carbapenemase production using the modified carbapenem inactivationMethod (mCIM).
Results: Out of 102 isolates studied, 64 (62.7%) were fully susceptible to all the antibiotics tested.Twenty-six (25.5%) were resistant to >1 antibiotic from >2 antibiotic classes, and 21 (20.6%) wereresistant to >1 antibiotic from >3 classes. Susceptibility was highest with polymyxin B (100%) and lowestwith piperacillin-tazobactam (64.7%). Carbapenem susceptibility was between 78.4% to 81.4%. Out of 22isolates which were not susceptible to >1 carbapenem, 18 (81.8%) were not susceptible to all threecarbapenems.
Conclusion: More than half of our P. aeruginosa isolates were fully susceptible to all the anti-pseudomonalantibiotics tested. Multidrug-resistant strains accounted for between 20% to 25% of all our P. aeruginosaisolates. Through mCIM testing, carbapenemase production did not appear to be the dominant resistancemechanism.

Published: February 2022

The increase in mortality and morbidity related to the novel COVID-19 virus led researchers to work ondeveloping new therapies to destroy the virus. Numerous clinical trials have started to find drugs that willeffectively treat the signs and symptoms of the virus. This review aims to summarize the pharmacogenomicaspects of drugs such as hydroxychloroquine, chloroquine, azithromycin, remdesivir, favipiravir, ribavirin,lopinavir/ritonavir, darunavir/cobicistat, interferon beta-1b, tocilizumab, ruxolitinib, baricitinib, andcorticosteroids used in the treatment of this virus. The data will be collected from various websites such asPubMed, Lancet, WHO website, PharmGKB website, IDSA Guidelines on the treatment & management ofCOVID-19 Patients, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) product labeling, and pharmacogenomicstables. Incomplete data exists related to the efficacy and safety of these drugs and healthcare providers arestruggling to make the right treatment choices. Drug-gene variants may alter the pharmacokinetics andsafety of some drugs and thus produce adverse drug reactions. Therefore, pharmacogenomics may helpdoctors decide the correct course of treatment by knowing the genetic makeup of an individual. This caneventually help to eliminate adverse drug reactions and reduce the mortality rate.

Published: February 2022

Abstract: The wide area of the community's cassava garden in Pattalasang village, Pattalasang district, Gowa regency resulted in an abundance of community cassava yields, but on the other hand these results are not managed properly, the community only sells to traditional markets and collectors while demand for cassava is very limited, as a result, a lot of cassava is damaged (rot). This condition is the reason for adding the economic value of the people's crops. Efforts are made for this purpose, namely by increasing the use of cassava through the manufacture of chips to minimize cassava that is not absorbed by the market and collectors so as to increase the economic income of the community. This method of community service begins with observations and interviews then continues with socialization to explain to farmers that cassava can be processed into a high economic value product, demonstrations by involving the community (farmers) so that they can make crispy and savory cassava chips. The results of this community service in collaboration with SMEs as partners with this activity have an impact on the emergence of new knowledge and skills and their application in utilizing and developing cassava products by adding value and usefulness. Keywords: cassava chips; pattallassang village; tubers  Abstrak: Luasnya area kebun singkong masyarakat Desa Pattalasang Kecamatan Pattalasang Kabupaten Gowa mengakibatkan melimpahnya hasil panen singkong masyarakat, namun pada sisi lain  hasil tersebut tidak dikelola dengan baik, masyarakat hanya menjual ke pasar tradisional dan pengumpul sementara permintaan terhadap singkong sangat terbatas, akibatnya banyak singkong yang rusak (membusuk). Kondisi ini menjadi alasan dilakukannya penambahan nilai ekonomis dari hasil panenan masyarakat. Upaya yang dilakukan untuk maksud tersebut, yaitu dengan cara menambah daya guna singkong melalui pembuatan keripik untuk meminimalisir singkong yang tidak terserap oleh pasar dan pengumpul sehingga dapat meningkatkan pendapatan ekonomi masyarakat. Metode yang dilakukan pada pengabdian masyarakat ini diawali dengan observasi dan wawancara kemudian dilanjutkan dengan sosialisasi untuk menjelaskan kepada petani bahwa singkong dapat diolah menjadi produk yang bernilai ekonomis tinggi, demonstrasi dengan melibatkan masyarakat agar mereka dapat membuat keripik singkong yang renyah dan gurih. Hasil pengabdian masyarakat ini berkolaborasi dengan UKM sebagai mitra yang dengan kegiatan ini berdampak pada  munculnya pengetahuan dan ketarampilan baru serta mengaplikasikannya dalam memanfaatkan dan mengembangkan produk singkong dengan menambah nilai dan kegunaannya. Kata kunci: keripik singkong; pattallassang; umbi
