Authors: Hamzah  , Herawaty  , Hasmawati
Published: September 2022

ABSTRACT: Pathogenic bacteria infections do not only occur in grow-out ponds but also in shrimp larvae rearing ponds. Local farmers called “kunang-kunang” disease, which is caused by Vibrio harveyi. In order to prevent the disease outbreak, preventive measures are required. The control of the Vibrio sp bacteria population in the rearing pond can be done by using natural antibiotics derived from plants (herbs).  Several types of plants contain antibacterial compounds or substances and have been widely used by humans, including ginger, onion and honey. The results showed that honey can be used as a natural antibiotic against Vibrio harveyi, Vibrio parahaemolitycus, and Vibrio alginolitycus bacteria. Nonetheless, the use of honey in rearing shrimp larvae is inefficient due to the high price. In addition, onions and ginger cannot be used as antibiotics against the bacteria Vibrio harveyi, Vibrio parahaemolitycus, and Vibrio alginolitycus

ABSTRAK: Infeksi bakteri pathogen bukan hanya terjadi di tambak namun juga dapat terjadi kolam pemeliharaan benih udang. Dan sudah lama pembudidaya mengenal istilah penyakit kunang-kunang, yang merupakan penyakit yang diakibatkan infeksi bakteri Vibrio harveyi. Upaya pencegahan berkembangnya populasi bakteri Vibrio sp dalam media air pemliharaan penting dilakukan agar tidak menyebabkan penyakit yang akut dan kronis pada udang.  Pengendalian populasi bakteri Vibrio sp dalam air pemeliharaan dapat dilakukan dengan menggunakan antibiotik alami yang berasal dari tumbuhan (herbal). Ada banyak jenis tumbuhan yang mengandung senyawa atau zat antibakteri dan telah banyak digunakan oleh manusia, diantaranya jahe, bawang merah dan madu. Berdasarkan hasil yang telah diperoleh dari kegiatan ini, maka disimpulkan bahwa madu dapat digunakan sebagai antibiotik terhadap bakteri Vibrio harveyi, Vibrio parahaemolitycus, dan Vibrio alginolitycus. Penggunaan madu dalam pemeliharaan benih udang vanname belum cukup efesien karena harganya yang tinggi Bawang merah dan jahe tidak dapat digunakan sebagai antibiotik terhadap bakteri Vibrio harveyi, Vibrio parahaemolitycus, dan Vibrio alginolitycus

Communicating about Sexual Problems
Authors: Katz A.
Published: September 2022

Sexual side effects of cancer treatment are common and, unfortunately, often not discussed with patients and their partner. This may be due to personal factors of the health care provider, fear of offending the patient or lack of knowledge, time constraints, and perception of the importance to the patient based on age and severity of the cancer. Despite the barriers to communication about a sensitive topic, oncology care providers are well situated to initiate the conversation. This article will identify key issues related to communication about sexuality by oncology care providers with individuals with the most common kinds of cancer. Models for assessing sexuality in these patients are presented to facilitate communication about this important aspect of quality of life that is impacted by cancer treatment.

Authors: Rasool Nosheen , Sohail Muhammad , Hussain Muhammad Mubashir
Published: September 2022

The aim of the research is twofold: first, to measure the corporate sustainability disclosure determination rate (CSDR) and examine its relationship with sustainability performance indicators (SPI). Second, to analyze the value relevance of sustainability investment (SI) with corporate financial performance (FP) from a sample of the top 85 companies listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX). Using content analysis, we developed a sustainability reporting index based on 20 indicators, and robust statistical methods were also applied to analyze the linkage between CSDR - SPI and SI- FP using a regression analysis for panel data. The content analysis of data shows that to some extent,companies disclose non-financial information on community development, social, and environmental progression. The findings of the study indicate the absence of a significant relationship between CSDR -SPI and SI - FP, and Pakistani companies do not enjoy the financial benefits of sustainability investments.

Published: September 2022

This study aims to examine intangible assets as mechanisms underlying the direct corporate social responsibility (CSR)-corporate financial performance (CFP) relationship. Based on signalling theory, we developed an integrated model taking the corporate image (CIM) and corporate identity (CID) as double mediators between the relation ship of CSR and CFP. Using the convenience sampling procedure, we dispersed an anonymous survey to employees and customers in 33 multi-national companies working in Pakistan. The structural equation-al modelling using Smart PLS 3.0 on 456 valid responses revealed the best fit for the study measurement and structural models. Further, the mediation analyses of intangible assets in the simple form identified both CIM and CID have partial indirect effects on the CSR-CFP relationship.Our overall mediation model taking both mediators simultaneously,revealed the full mediation effect of the CSR-CFP connection.Specifically, we found that corporate image has higher relative significance than the CID in the mediation model. However, both simultaneously result in greater CFP for the firms.

Published: September 2022

Wealth sustainability has always remained a policy concern for policymakers in developing economies like Pakistan. This study has filled the gap by investigating weak sustainability and determinants of wealth accumulation for 46 years, from 1972 to 2017, in Pakistan. Wealth sustainability has been analyzed through the Genuine Savings (GS) Index.Moreover, the auto-regressive distributive lag (ARDL) model has been applied to find out the effects of wealth determining factors ̶ which include Government expenditure, real gross domestic product (GDP),real money market rate, life expectancy, and real money supply ̶ over wealth accumulation. Results of the GS estimate imply that during the reporting period, the economy is sustainable, and ARDL results show that the effects of government expenditure, real gross domestic product(GDP), and life expectancy on wealth accumulation are significant and positive in the long run, the effect of interest rate is positive but insignificant.

Published: September 2022

The purpose of this study is to compare the impact of trade liberalization on human development among developing and developed countries. The study collected data from seven developing and seven developed countries for the period 2005 to 2019. The human development index (HDI) is used as a measure of human development (social development),and trade openness (trade percentage of GDP) is used as a proxy for trade liberalization. The study concluded that in both developing and developed economies, trade liberalization encourages human development further; it is also concluded that economic growth (GDP) of both economies also plays an important role in encouraging human development while an increase in population burdened human development in both economies. However,inflation critically impacts human development in developed countries while showing no effect on developing countries.

Authors: Islam Saddam Ul , Elahi Farman , Qamar Kiran
Published: September 2022

The present study aims to analyze Franz Kafka's work, The Metamorphosis, in terms of the psychoanalytical theory of Sigmund Freud. According to the theory, the Oedipus complex indicates the feelings and thoughts that the brain keeps oblivious, to through powerful constraint, that concentrates upon a boy's longing to have his mom physically and sexually. The metamorphosis is the sensation of Gregor's internal world, the one which is portrayed by Kafka is the universe of obliviousness. Freud characterized the unconscious as a place wherein our stifled wills, sentiments, abhorrence, drives, and clashes are held. The focus of this study is not on Gregor; it is rather on his father as a confirmation of the Oedipus complex. The study finds that Gregor is perceived by his father, in his unconscious, as a rival who has come between him and his wife. To get rid of him, the father hits him with an apple, due to which Gregor dies. The father is relaxed now. Getting a new job, he starts a fresh life and takes his family on a picnic

Stylistics is concerned with the analysis of variation and characteristics of language. Stylistics has gathered imminent role in ascertaining language use, especially poetic language. In this research paper,I have explored the intentional deviation from the conventional rules in the poem Ode to West Wind by P.B Shelly. The poem is rich from a stylistic point of view because the application of deliberate misspellings, creativity in style, the irregularity in the syntax patterns, and the phonological and graphological deviations make the poem a fascinating read. I have noticed that Shelly has freed himself from the structural and traditional norms of language and has presented a new dimension in poetry.This article is the analysis done against the backdrop of deviations at syntactical, morphological, and grammatical levels.
Comparative Componential Analysis of Semantic Density of Selected Lexical Items in Surah al Fatiha (the Holy Quran) with Special Reference to Various Translations in English
Authors: Ishtiaq Muhammad , Gul Nasim , Haq Ihtisham Ul
Published: September 2022

This study using a qualitative paradigm, investigates certain lexical items of the Holy Quran, employing Newmark's model of Componential Analysis. No two translations of the selected lexical items are the same in the 62 English-translated versions. The Holy Quran, being the language of ALLAH Almighty,has a special semantically loaded vocabulary which is hard for other languages to be completely encompassed, transferred or transmitted. Generally, the Target Language (English) tends to miss the semantic core or only marginally related to these items in a narrow sense, which results in a translation.It is worth noting that the gap between the semantic content of the Source and the Target codes is not due to extra-linguistic factors (e.g., cultural, religious, political); rather, it is due largely to the vast expanse of semantic components encompassed by these items as used in the Holy Quran.
Lexical Meanings and Mistranslation: an Analysis of English Translation of Munshi Premchand's Short Stories
Authors: Younas Muhammad , Pervaiz Beenish , Riaz Babar
Published: September 2022

This study is qualitative in nature and aims to highlight a genuine difficulty with the translation that many foreign translators have. Put another way,idiomatic expressions and cultural terms cannot be translated easily. They need to be translated very carefully, keeping in view the intercultural subtleties. In this study, Munshi Premchand’s three short stories originally written in Urdu and translated into English have been selected for qualitative analysis. These shore short stories are Eidgah, Qazaaqi, and Kafan respectively translated into English by KhuswantSingh, Fatima Rizvi and Frances W. Pritchett. The study concludes that the translators, especially those whose own mother language is other than the source language, have a hard time translating idiomatic expressions and cultural terms embedded in the very culture of the source language because they are not fully aware of the intercultural transnational intricacies and the intercultural pragmatics. This is what creates mistranslation and misleading meanings.

Published: September 2022

White rust, caused by oomycete pathogen Albugo candida, is a serious disease for the crops of Brassicaceae family. It is an obligate pathogen responsible for up to 60% yield loss with combined infection of leaves and inflorescence across the globe. Biochemical variations in host plants can alter the content of proteins, sugars, phenols, iron content etc. enables to understand the biochemistry of host-pathogen interaction. Therefore, the present study was conducted during 2017-2019 at Amity University, Noida, Uttar Pradesh to evaluate the biochemical response of Brassica juncea var. Varuna and its doubled haploid (DH) mutant genotypes infected with A. candida causing white rust at cotyledonary leaf stage. The seven mutant genotypes were tested for pathogenic response against five white rust isolates (WRI). In the challenge assay, mutant genotypes C66 and C69 showed resistance response as compared to susceptible host B. juncea var. Varuna against different isolates on the basis of disease severity. The biochemical parameters were found to be high in the uninoculated genotypes in comparison to infected cotyledons of B. juncea genotypes. The biochemical profile emphasizes significant increase in content of protein, sugar, and phenol from highest in genotype C66 positively correlating with resistance response against pathogen in comparison to other mutant genotype C69 and susceptible check Varuna. The results suggest that factors conditioning the response of mutant genotypes to WRI may differ or control in different ways and triggers novel defense signaling.

The ability to mathematical representation is important for students to have. This study aims to describe the mathematical representation ability of junior high school students based on self-efficacy on the dimensions of generality, level, and strength. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with the subject of three seventh-grade students in Cibunar Village. Data were collected through observation, tests, and interviews. The data were analyzed in the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and concluding. The results showed that the mathematical representation ability of students who met the three dimensions of self-efficacy had not been able to meet the indicators of making mathematical models of the problems given and presenting data or information representations to diagrams, graphs, or table representations. Two students who meet the two dimensions of self-efficacy are both only able to achieve one indicator of mathematical representation ability, namely using diagrams as a solution facility. This shows that self-efficacy affects the ability of mathematical representation.

The learning process that is currently taking place is still using conventional media, namely by using blackboard media and printed books so that it is still not optimal in increasing understanding of good manners and morals for students. In this way students pay less attention to explanations because they still have to learn while playing. This makes the teachers overwhelmed because they have to explain the material while the students are still in the stage of liking the game. The method used in this research is the development of the Analysis Design Development Implementation Evaluation (ADDIE) system. To measure the success rate of understanding daily etiquette and morals from students, a test instrument is used, namely the alpha testing instrument, namely expert review (experts) and beta which will later be in the form of pretest and posttest. The results obtained at this time is an application of learning etiquette and daily morality that has been tested using alpha and beta testing methods. Based on the results of the expert review that has been carried out, the results obtained are 4.1 in the Very Valid category. Furthermore, for the results of the field test, namely the alpha and beta tests obtained from the results of the pretest and posttest, the average student got 88 results in the high category. This indicates an increase in learning from students before and after the use of animation applications.
