Lifecourse Transitions: How ICTS Support Older Migrants’ Adaptation to Transnational Lives
Authors: Nguyen Hien Thi , Baldassar Loretta , Wilding Raelene
Published: September 2022

Lifecourse transitions from adulthood into older age are particularly complex for transnationalmigrants, bringing additional challenges and opportunities. Adding to the growing literature on ageing and migration, this article illustrates the ways ICTs facilitate the transnational lifecourse transitions of Vietnamese migrant grandparents in Australia through lifecourse digital learning. Research findings highlight the crucial role that digital citizenship plays in supporting migrant grandparents’ adaptation to increasingly mobile lives through practices of digital kinning and digital homing. These practices include using technological tools to maintain social support networks, exchange transnational caregiving, tackle language, navigation, and social integration barriers, and consume culturally relevant media, all of which support migrant identities and belongings. Findings confirm the importance of ICTs in promoting lifecourse digital learning for older migrants who are often stereotyped for their poor learning capacities and ability to adapt to new living arrangements because of their older age.
Comparative analysis of the psychological content of the «time perspective», «image of the future» and «goal» concepts
Authors: Mikheeva Elena V.
Published: September 2022

Semantic and systematic (psychological) analysis of scientific and specialized literature allowed to conduct mental reality research which is hidden behind the concepts of time perspective, image of the future and goal. It is proved that the main bearing, mostly unconscious formation is the image of the future, while the time perspective turns out to be a strategic characteristic that sets the ultimate guidelines of the image of the future, and the goal is the point of transcending this image from subjective reality into objective reality, which is accomplished starting with verbalization the idea. From this point of view, the goal acts as a tactical aspect of transcendence (self-realization). According to the results of the theoretical study, a hypothesis was put forward that in a situation of uncertainty, the formation of an image of the future is mostly heuristic and reliable process, which was verified in a preliminary study in the form of a formative experiment using the T-IGR method. In this experiment, perspective acted as a qualitative characteristic of the image of the future. His results confirmed that by itself the formulation of the desired future in the form of a goal does not provide support for resisting the flow of random events. Whereas the connection of the image of the future makes a person face the need for integration, coordination of the image at all levels of subjective regulation, starting with mental representation and ending with the adequacy of actions.
DIRECTIONS FOR IMPROVING THE CUSTOMS MECHANISM IN UKRAINE AFTER THE WAR ON THE WAY TO SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Lytvynova I.
Published: September 2022

Studies have been conducted on whether the basic functions of the customs and tariff mechanism changed during martial law and whether the priority of the functions of the customs and tariff mechanism was determined during the war. It is proved that the impact of customs tariffs on the sustainable development of Ukraine is essential, looking at the super-large import component of most Ukrainian goods, as well as the significant effect of imported goods on the domestic market during the downtime of their production. During the war, there are destructive processes associated with the impossibility, in most cases of competing in the market of finished products worldwide. Most of the finished products in Ukraine went to domestic consumption during the war, contrary to global development and globalization trends. A hypothesis has been put forward that these destructive processes are mostly due to the lack of working capital of Ukrainian enterprises during the state of war, and the increase in the cost of the logistics component, which is part of the tax base for imports. Even though the Ukrainian market is increasingly open to foreign manufacturers, it is a complex and long-term competition between Ukrainian and foreign producers in both domestic and foreign markets. One of the most significant factors of influence is customs tariffs, and VAT is one of the most significant burdens on imports. With the help of comparison, a possible reduction in the burden on Ukrainian enterprises during import and export was analyzed, and possible tools were identified that would create new jobs or reinvest earned business funds in the country’s economy. The tools were found when conducting a comparative analysis of the customs tariff mechanism before and during the war in Ukraine, considering the goals of sustainable development. Quantitative and qualitative impact to selected macroeconomic indicators of Ukraine after implementing deferred payment for VAT in import of goods analyzed. The qualitative impact was analyzed to show us the result of calls on surveys to understand business attitudes, and interests according to the implementation of deferred payment for VAT in import of goods in Ukraine.

Authors: Cabrera-Vázquez Antonio , Romera Eva  M. , Ortega-Ruiz Rosario , Gil del Pino Carmen , Falla Daniel
Published: September 2022

La falta de compromiso moral y empatía se ha relacionado con conductas transgresoras que deterioran la convivencia escolar. Pero hay poco trabajo científico y educativo que ponga en evidencia la relación que ambas variables mantienen con las actitudes de los docentes así como de los futuros docentes en el marco de una sociedad que tiende a la diversidad cultural y a la educación inclusiva. El estudio que se presenta analiza dichas actitudes en un total de 710 estudiantes universitarios de los Grados de Educación Infantil y Primaria (82.0% mujeres; M edad = 20.72; DT= 3.93). Se trata de un estudio transversal ex post facto retrospectivo mediante el uso de autoinformes. Los resultados confirmaron una relación significativa e inversa entre las actitudes positivas hacia la diversidad cultural y ciertas expresiones de desconexión moral cívica. También se halló que la empatía cognitiva y afectiva ejercieron un efecto indirecto en esta relación. Se discute la importancia de trabajar la empatía y la moralidad transversalmente en los planes de estudio de la formación de los futuros educadores dada la importancia que habría que atribuir a las actitudes y el compromiso moral cívico hacia una educación igualitaria que desarrolle el pensamiento crítico en las aulas.

Authors: Martinez Garrido Cynthia , Hidalgo Farran Nina , Márquez Vázquez Carmen , Graña Oliver Raquel
Published: September 2022

La presente investigación busca conocer las concepciones de democracia en educación del profesorado en España. Para ello, se desarrolla un estudio fenomenográfico con 58 docentes seleccionados en función del nivel educativo que imparte y la titularidad de la escuela. Los resultados indican la existencia de tres categorías de concepciones sobre lo que es democracia en educación: i) aquella que hace referencia a la participación de los agentes en la escuela y su funcionamiento, ii) la que la considera como el sentido de pertenencia y emancipación de los protagonistas del proceso educativo y, iii) aquella que la entiende como una responsabilidad social de la escuela y sus protagonistas. Conocer las concepciones docentes sobre democracia en educación ayuda a avanzar hacia una educación en democracia en la que se enseñen valores democráticos y todos y todas tengan la oportunidad de convivir y participar en los procesos de toma de decisiones.

Published: September 2022

Partial fault segment rupture may increase local earthquake hazards. To verify whether a strong earthquake will occur after the lower ramp rupture 2017 v6.3 Jinghe earthquake, we excavated a trench at the east segment of the fault near the Xiatianji reservoir. Integrating the trench wall interpretation and stratigraphic optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) ages, we constrain four paleoearthquakes. They are named E1–E4 from the oldest to the youngest and occurred at 29.8 ± 3.0, 22.4 ± 1.9, 14.7 ± 1.9, and after 11.6 ± 0.9 ka B.P., respectively. The average recurrence interval between E1, E2, and E3 is 7.3 ± 0.7 ka B.P. This recurrence interval may have exceeded the elapsed time since the most recent surface rupturing earthquake. The overlap between the last event and the average recurrence interval may indicate that the time since the most recent event reaches the recurrence interval, and a major earthquake (7 < M < 8) may yet occur after the 2017 Jinghe event. Most historical and instrumental major great earthquakes occurred on higher slip rate faults at the northern and southern piedmont of Tian Shan. The low slip rate thrusts within the Tian Shan also have the potential to generate major earthquakes.

Establishment of Omnibus Law in Solving Investment Issues in Indonesia
Authors: Putro Tri Anggoro
Published: September 2022

This study aimed to better understand the concept of Omnibus Law in the legislation and evaluate its use in responding to investment needs in Indonesia. The method in this research was normative legal research with secondary data through data analysis. This study showed that the Omnibus Law was not an appropriate approach to the formation of legislation in responding to investment needs in Indonesia. Based on the existing data, the investment climate in Indonesia is quite high and running well and even in a better situation when compared to other Asian countries. The Omnibus Law on Job Creation will raise a new problem instead, such as the absence of legal certainty for investment and the priority of the investment types. From the aspect of industrial relations, the Omnibus Law will result in disharmony in industrial relations between employers and workers, and it even potentially reduces guarantees for workers' human rights. Ironically, the fulfillment of workers' human rights has become an important benchmark for investors in developed countries to invest in developing countries, such as Indonesia. Therefore, the Indonesian government should strengthen the Corruption Eradication Commission and ensure a better investment climate by guaranteeing human rights to all workers and by reducing the ratio between investments (ICOR).

Published: September 2022

Background: The early postnatal period is a critical phase in newborns as major changes occur in this period. Hence, this study was done to determine the utility of Whitt neonatal trigger score (W-NTS) as a clinical tool.Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted at Kempegowda institute of medical sciences (KIMS) during the period of December 2019 to June 2021. All neonates admitted in postnatal wards of KIMS hospital during the study period were included. Detailed history was taken and NTS observation and scoring chart was applied.Results: NTS chart was applied on a total of 750 neonates who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Out of 750 neonates, 136 (18.1%) triggered the NTS chart. Twenty-one (15.4%%) neonates did not require any medical intervention while 115 (84.6%) required intervention (25 in post-natal wards (PNW) and 90 in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). In our study, NTS score of 2 has 78.89% sensitivity and 97.27% specificity for admission to NICU while specificity (100%) was high in NTS score of ≥3. The area under the ROC curve for the NTS was 0.99 with confidence interval of 0.98-0.999 and standard error of 0.005 which was statistically significant.Conclusions: Results from this study shows that W-NTS observation chart acts well as an adjunct to clinical assessment in the PNW, with its simplicity allowing for the successful and safe use.

Published: September 2022

Background: Malnutrition among children is a major health issue in South East Asia presenting with stunting and wasting. Many research studies have been conducted to establish the signs, symptoms, corresponding effects of malnutrition on child health, growth and development and the current study focusses more specifically on the effects of electrolyte levels on ankle reflex grades in malnourished children.Methods: This is an observational case-control type of study conducted in two teaching hospitals in India. Cases of protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) (n=30), children with mid upper arm circumference (MUAC) lesser than 12.5 along with control group of normal healthy children (n=30), all aged between 1 and 5 years were selected. Ankle reflexes were noted using a knee hammer on three consecutive days and graded based on the NINDS reflex grading scale for cases and controls and noted against the corresponding serum sodium and serum potassium values obtained from the children.Results: A Chi square test performed and p=0.379 obtained for serum sodium and 0.026 for serum potassium for cases.Conclusions: A conclusion could be drawn that serum sodium levels and ankle reflex grades have no statistically significant relationship in cases of controls, while serum potassium levels and ankle reflex grades have statistically significant relationship in cases but not in control group indicating a plausible cause for hyporeflexia in the patients.
Atypical presentation of breath holding spells: two case reports with literature review
Authors: Kishore Varma G. V. K. , Govardhan P. , Lakshmi K. Vijaya
Published: September 2022

Breath holding spells are a common form of a benign sudden non-epileptic condition commonly seen in healthy children 6 to 48 months of age. They are usually triggered by an emotional stimuli or minor trauma. Based on the color change, they are classified into 3 types, cyanotic, pallid, and mixed. Pallid breath holding spells result from exaggerated, vagally-mediated cardiac inhibition, whereas the more common, cyanotic breath holding spells are of more complex pathogenesis which is not completely understood. A detailed and accurate history is the mainstay of diagnosis. An EKG should be strongly considered to rule out long QT syndrome. Spontaneous resolution of   breath-holding spells is usually seen, without any adverse developmental and intellectual sequelae. Rare cases of status epilepticus, prolonged asystole, and sudden death have been reported. Reassurance and education are the mainstay of therapy. Occasionally, pharmacologic intervention with iron, piracetam; atropine may be of benefit. Here we present 2 cases, one of each, pallid and cyanotic breath holding spells.

Background: Nasal masses are finding in an ENT (Ear, nose, throat) outpatient department. Most patient present with complaints of nasal obstruction.Other symptoms are nasal discharge, epistaxis and disturbances of smell. Sinonasal mass may be neoplastic (benign or malignant) or non-neoplastic (congenital, inflammatory) in nature. It is difficult to determine actual pathology underneath every nasal masses so, histopathological evaluation is mandatory for definitive diagnosis.

Methods: The present study is prospective observational study of symptomatology, demographic profile and histopathological correlation of sinonasal masses in samplw size 80, these are the total number of patients presenting at tertiary health care centre from 1st Jan 2019 to 30th June 2020 (18 months) the study include, patients of any age and sex presenting with nasal symptoms

Results: Majority of patients with sinonasal masses where in the age group 2nd decade. Male female ratio was 1.28:1. Nasal obstruction was the most common presentation. Most common non neoplastic lesion was ethmoidal polyposis and most common benign lesion was hemangioma. Most common malignant lesion was squamous cell carcinoma.

Conclusions: Presenting features of all sinonasal masses may be indistinguishable and post diagnostic dilemma. Correlation of clinical and histo-pathological modalities is of utmost importance for accurate diagnosis.
An unusual dermoid cyst presenting as midline swelling of neck in an adult patient
Authors: Chaudhary Pallavi , Mathur Navneet P. , Silu Manju
Published: September 2022

Dermoid cysts are true hamartomas focal malformations that can resemble neoplasms grossly and even microscopically but they arise from an abnormal formation of tissue elements. Here we are presenting a 44 years old woman presented with a midline mass in the neck present for many years. Fine-needle aspiration biopsy showed single and anucleate squamous along with few mature squamous cells against the background of debris. No atypical cells were seen. Ultrasonical examination revealed well-defined thick-walled area in the midline measuring 37×27 mm. Histologic examination of the cystic content identified epidermis, sebaceous glands, and hair follicles along with copious sebaceous material. These findings are consistent with a dermoid cyst. So, our case report demonstrates that dermoid cysts can present as neck mass and must be kept in the differential diagnosis. Even though characteristic radiological and histopathological features make the diagnosis simple yet, it may be difficult to diagnose, if present at unusual locations.
Folic acid supplementation and pregnancy: more than just neural tube defect prevention
Authors: James A. Greenberg  , Stacey J. Bell  , Yong Guan  , Yan-Hong Yu
Published: September 2022

Folate (vitamin B9) is an essential nutrient that is required for DNA replication and as a substrate for a range of enzymatic reactions involved in amino acid synthesis and vitamin metabolism. Demands for folate increase during pregnancy because it is also required for growth and development of the fetus. Folate deficiency has been associated with abnormalities in both mothers (anemia, peripheral neuropathy) and fetuses (congenital abnormalities).This article reviews the metabolism of folic acid, the appropriate use of folic acid supplementation in pregnancy, and the potential benefits of folic acid, as well as the possible supplementation of L-methylfolate for the prevention of pregnancy-related complications other than neural tube defects.The term folate is typically used as a generic name for the group of chemically related compounds based on the folic acid structure. Folate, or vitamin B9, is thought of as one of the 13 essential vitamins. It cannot be synthesized de novo by the body, and must be obtained either from diet or supplementation. Folic acid is a synthetic dietary supplement that is present in artificially enriched foods and pharmaceutical vitamins. Neither folate nor folic acid is metabolically active. Both must be reduced to participate in cellular metabolism. L-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate (L-methylfolate) is the predominant micronutrient form of folate that circulates in plasma and that is involved in biologic processes.Periconceptional folic acid supplementation protects against fetal structural anomalies, including neural tube and congenital heart defects. Recent data suggest that it may also protect against preterm birth. Although additional studies are needed to better define the precise timing, dosing, and formulation, existing data suggest that dietary folic acid supplementation is a good idea for all reproductive-aged women.
Preparation A Cross-Linked Copolymer By Using Unsaturated Poly(2-Butene Maleate) Polyester and Methyl Methacrylate
Authors: SALTAN Fehmi
Published: September 2022

In this study, synthesis of unsaturated Poly(2-Butene Maleate) polyester by condensation polymerization and preparation of cross-linked graft copolymer with methyl methacrylate are presented. For this purpose, unsaturated polyesters were synthesized in four different time periods (12h, 24h, 36h, 48h) in the presence of hydroquinone using 1,4-Butanediol-2-ene and maleic anhydride. Then, the obtained unsaturated polyester was purified on the alumina column and used to obtain cross-linked copolymer with methyl methacrylate. Here in, methyl methacrylate acts as both co-monomer and cross-linking agent.

In the preparation of Poly(2-Butene Maleate), the optimization study of the molecular weight and yield ratios with the time parameter was carried out. In the results obtained, it was observed that the maximum molecular weight was reached after almost 36 hours (Mn=3400). It was observed that time did not have much effect on the yield. Structural characterizations of the obtained products were supported by FT-IR and NMR analyzes. In thermal analysis, it was observed that the thermal stability of Cross-linked graft copolymer is higher than unsaturated polyester but lower than pure Poly(methyl methacrylate).

Authors: CİCEK Oguz , GÜLTEKİN Burak
Published: September 2022

In the present study, the effects of chain length variation of Poly(3-hexyl) thiophene polymer, which is one of the appropriate alternatives of Spiro-O-MeTAD used as a hole transfer layer (HTL) in perovskite-based solar cells (PSC), on thin-film morphology and device performance were investigated. Furthermore, nanowires of long (UZ) and short-chain (KZ) P3HT were obtained in the solution phase and then comparative photovoltaic performance analyses were carried out by fabricating PSC devices. As a result, it was determined that the morphological changes resulting from the polymer chain length directly affect the charge transfer between the active layer and HTL. KZ-P3HT presented better performance than both standard P3HT (5.99) and UZ-P3HT (2.68) polymers with a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 7.74%. It was demonstrated that the main reason for this is that the fringed structure, detected by AFM images, increases the contact ratio at the perovskite/HTM interface. In addition, thanks to the morphological improvements in nano-wire studies, it was observed that the photovoltaic performance of the PSC device containing UZ-P3HT increased by 5.51%. Contrary to UZ-P3HT, it was determined that after the conversion of KZ-P3HT to the nanowire, the fringed structure on the surface disappeared and therefore the efficiency decreased to 5.81%.

Published: September 2022

Introduction: This study aimed to determine the communication profile of parents of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and parents of typically developing children (TDC).
Materials and Methods: Broad autism phenotype and communication skills were measured using the broad autism phenotype questionnaire (BAPQ) and the Queendom communication skill test (QCST) in parents of children with ASD and parents of TDC. Participants included 346 parents of children with ASD and parents of TDC. In the ASD group, participants included 172 parents (76 fathers and 96 mothers) of children diagnosed with ASD. The TDC parent group included parents 174 (85 fathers and 89 mothers). In the autism group, at least one child had autism and in the opposite group, the child had no psychological problems. Two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed to examine the effects of group (TDC, ASD) and gender (male, female) on study variables.
Results: A significant group-gender interaction was observed for BAPQ total scores (F(1,342)=4.28, P=0.039); Mothers of children with ASD reported higher BAPQ total scores than mothers of TDC (P=0.006), and mothers of TDC reported lower BAPQ total scores than fathers of TDC (P<0.001). A significant group-gender interaction was also observed for QCST total scores (F(1,342)=11.66, P<0.001); Mothers of children with ASD reported lower QCST total scores than mothers of TDC (P<0.001), and among parents of TDC, mothers had higher levels of QCST total scores than fathers (P<0.001). A negative significant correlation was observed between BAPQ and QCST total scores (r=-0.499, P<0.001).
Conclusion: The results of this study showed a difference between parents’ communication skills in the two groups. Parents of children with ASD have more communication characteristics of autism than the control group, Fathers in the ASD group scored higher in the total scores of autism communication traits and some subtests which require further research in this area.

Published: September 2022

Introduction: The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of a family-centered sensory diet program on the impulsivity in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Materials and Methods: This is a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design with a control group. The study population included all children with ADHD aged 6-12 years in Tehran, Iran referred to the clinics of Hasti, Bahar, and Masir-e Sabz in 2020. Of these, 30 children were selected using a convenience sampling method and randomly divided into two groups of intervention and control. The intervention group underwent 12 sessions of a family-centered sensory diet program, 3 days a week, each for 45 minutes based on the Wilbarger protocol. The used tools were the Wechsler intelligence scale for children-Fourth Edition to test intellectual ability and the Conners’ parent rating scale to diagnose ADHD in children. Independent t test and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) were used in SPSS software v. 20 for data analysis.
Results: In this study, the mean age of participants was 9.56±4.38 years, including 11 girls (36.6%) and 19 boys (63.3%), and the mean age of mothers of these children was 34.23±6.9. The mean impulsivity scores of children in the intervention group decreased and the results of the ANCOVA showed a statistically significant difference in the mean posttest scores between the two groups (P=0.001).
Conclusion: The family-centered sensory diet program has a positive effect on the impulsivity of children with ADHD. It is recommended that therapists use the sensory diet program as a complementary therapy along with other therapeutic interventions.

Published: September 2022

Introduction: HIF-1a is an important regulator in response to hypoxia that affects various genes involved in energy metabolism. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of exercise intensity on HIF-1a gene expression and cardiac TG content in rats with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Methods: The present study was performed experimentally on 40 male Wistar rats. Mice were randomly divided into 4 groups. The control groups, low-intensity endurance training and intense interval training, consumed high-fat food for 16 weeks, and then the two training groups participated in exercise for 8 weeks. Furthermore, sham group, which used standard food during this period, at the end of training, the expression level of HIF-1a and the amount of intra-tissue fat of the heart were measured in 4 groups. HIF-1a expression was assessed using real-time PCR and TG assay on an auto-analyzer. SPSS software version 16 and analysis of variance were used to analyze the data.
Results: The results showed that there was a significant difference in the expression of HIF-1a gene between the control and the sham groups, HIIT and LIET groups (P=0.001). Moreover, there was a significant difference in triglyceride between HIIT and LIET groups compared to the sham and control groups, but no significant difference was observed between HIIT and LIET groups (P=0.0001).
Conclusion: The results showed that intense intermittent exercise and low-intensity continuous exercise may reduce cardiac triglyceride content by decreasing HIF-1a expression and increasing fatty acid oxidation.

El presente libro recoge varias investigaciones realizadas entre los años 2018 y 2020 en relación con las temáticas asociadas a la economía conductual y el marketing de experiencias. En el primer trabajo, los autores se ocupan de las nociones de los sesgos cognitivos planteados por la economía conductual, evidenciados en las decisiones que toman los humanos. Para ello se realizó una muestra aleatoria de 60 personas, 30 zurdos y 30 diestros de la ciudad de Medellín, quienes realizaron una prueba corta a través de la herramienta de encuestas de la aplicación Instagram; una vez obtenidos los resultados del trabajo de campo se halló una relación con uno de los nudges propuesto por diversos autores, llamado el efecto centro-escenario, en el que se logró evidenciar así una subcategoría de este, partiendo de una explicación teórica y psicológica. Previo al ejercicio, el rastreo teórico de los autores más influyentes de la economía conductual permitió analizar los sesgos que estos proponen (estableciendo sus semejanzas y diferencias) y el efecto que pueden llegar a tener en las personas. Es pertinente el tema de la economía conductual actualmente, pues hasta hace relativamente poco, comenzó a proponer visiones diferentes del funcionamiento del cerebro humano y a contradecir posturas convencionales de la economía y la psicología, afirmando que los humanos son irracionales, impulsivos y poco calculadores.
Introduction
Authors: Banerjee Pallavi
Published: September 2022

The introduction lays the foundation of Dismantling Dependence by centering the author’s personal stakes and standpoint dilemmas in this academic project to chronicle how visa laws control lives of Indian professional immigrants in the United States. It establishes the sociological importance of understanding visa policies as structures that frame people’s lives. It also brings various theoretical strands together, from poststructuralist, to postcolonial, to theories of gender, families, and migration, that converge to make sense of the complexities of the lived experience of Indian immigrant women nurses and men tech workers and their spouses whose lives are roped in by visa policies. Particularly, it highlights how dependent visa laws become a proxy for state-imposed dependence on families where a family member is pushed to relocate to the United States on a dependent visa. And lastly, the author explains the methodology of the research done for the book before detailing the plan for the remainder of the book.

The aim of this research was to know whether pineapple peel juice can be used as an ovicidal of in vitro A galli. This study used eggs of A. galli worms obtained by collecting adult A. galli worms from the small intestines of fresh local chickens purchased from traditional markets in Surabaya. The research design used was a completely randomized design (CRD) with four treatments , the concentration of pineapple peel juice was 0% (Control), 5%, 10%, and 20%. Each treatment consisted of six replications, with observations on days 5, 10, 15 and 20. Developed eggs were identified with the presence of larvae within egg and the movement of larvae. The data obtained will be analyzed with the ANOVA Statistical Test with the SPSS device and then followed by the Duncan test. The results of statistical analysis showed that pineapple peel juice had a significant effect on the development of A. galli worm eggs In Vitro. The number of damaged A.galli eggs increased as they were given higher pineapple juice concentration. This proves that pineapple peel juice has higher anthelmintic effect with increasing concentration given. Pineapple peel juice 20% is the best juice concentration.

Densificación, contribución de mejoras y boom de la propiedad en Nou Barris (Barcelona), 1950s-1970s: una aproximación relacional a las periferias obreras durante el franquismo

ResumenPara entender los procesos de formación y regeneración urbana en un sentido amplio y multidimensional, se hace necesaria una aproximación eminentemente relacional, atenta a factores y actores muy diversos, y a las circunstancias y contextos de cada trayectoria. Conviene para ello focalizar la investigación en un caso estudio y, en el caso de las periferias de la Barcelona franquista, el actual distrito de Nou Barris es sin duda la mejor piedra de toque por la diversidad de situaciones y trayectorias, y porque permite contraponer formas diversas de asentamiento y crecimiento urbano. En general, en el rápido proceso de formación de las periferias obreras durante el franquismo, los grandes polígonos de vivienda masiva han ocupado el centro de la escena. Se han mostrado como el resultado de un proyecto arquitectónico más o menos conseguido, como la expresión de la voluntad política, como productos de nuevas formas de gestión y como las dotaciones más decisivas de nueva vivienda en un período de déficits abisales. Sin embargo, se han considerado residuales, o como algo que simplemente sucede, los procesos más atomizados que extendieron y densificaron los tejidos preexistentes que fueron claramente mayoritarios. Amador Ferrer ya puso en evidencia que en la comarca de Barcelona las tramas de densificación absorbieron el 70% del incremento poblacional entre 1961 y 1970, mientras los polígonos apenas el 23%. Incluso en el actual distrito de Nou Barris, con una gran presencia de polígonos de vivienda, entre 1940 y 1980 la densificación aportó casi el 60% de las nuevas viviendas (Ferrer, 1996; Oyón et al., 2021).
Rice land sustainability and agricultural financing through waqf
Authors: Majid Rifaldi
Published: September 2022

Purpose – This paper aims to formulate a waqf of rice field model combined with the mitigating risk associated with maintaining the agricultural land due to the conversion issue.Methodology – This study used a qualitative method with a library approach by adopting a qualitative content analysis which strengthens primary data collection through in-depth interviews with experts consisting of regulators, practitioners, and academics in the fields of waqf and agricultureFindings – The results showed that the strategy to implement the waqf of rice fields could be pursued by an internal strategy, namely optimizing and revitalizing waqf land. That had been pledged as a means of production and an external strategy through the acquisition of potential paddy fields for waqf and managed by nazhir. In implementing the proposed model, some institutional engineering is needed, namely by presenting the role of anchor companies as managers, farmer associations of driving actors, and off-takers who buy crops. It can mitigate the risk of reduced cash waqf principal and farmer financing through a holistic feasibility study, involvement of insurance/guarantor, reserving capital funds, restructured financing, blended finance schemes, and institutional strengthening.Implications – This model expects to answer the sustainability problem of agricultural land, be a catalyst for increasing production quantity, and solve the financing issue for farmers.Originality – This preliminary study integrated the agricultural issues with the concept of waqf and Islamic instruments strengthened by literature review and expert judgment, followed by formulating the proposed model's strategies, models, and risk mitigation.

Purpose – One of the instruments in Islamic economics that can help alleviate poverty during Covid-19 is zakat, infaq, and alms. This study aims to analyze the effect of ZIS utilization by the Jogokariyan Mosque in reducing the poverty of its congregation.Methodology – The approach is quantitative with CIBEST analysis techniques and different tests (Paired T-test and Mann-Whitney test). Data were collected through interviews with the Jogokariyan Mosque administrators and distributing questionnaires to 33 congregations that received ZIS benefits as a population. Findings – The results of the analysis of the CIBEST model show that the use of ZIS can reduce the material and spiritual poor of the congregations who receive ZIS assistance. The results of the Paired T-test and the Mann-Whitney test showed that all variables experienced positive differences before and after receiving ZIS assistance from the Jogokariyan Mosque.Implications – Community empowerment through ZIS funds from the Jogokariyan Mosque can be further improved, particularly by increasing the number of beneficiaries (mustahik). The practice applied by the Jogokariyan Mosque can also be imitated by other mosques so that they can become an instrument of economic recovery during the Covid-19 period. Originality – This study looks at how the empowerment of Islamic social funds is carried out through mosques. This shows that the mosque's function is not only a place of worship but also an important role in the community's social conditions.

Authors: Rachman Abdul
Published: September 2022

Purpose – This study aims to analyze the utilization of zakat funds carried out by BAZNAS Tangerang City through the ZMart program. Methodology – The method in this research is the descriptive qualitative method. The primary sources in this study were interviews and observations of the administrator of the ZMart BAZNAS program in Tangerang City, mustahik, who owns a ZMart store, and ZMart consumers. Secondary data sources come from several articles, data, and information related to the ZMart program.Findings – The results of this study illustrate that the utilization of zakat funds through the ZMart program is still unable to improve the welfare of mustahik towards muzakki because of the limited capital provided in managing their business, so they are only able to survive in managing a small shop. However, the ZMart application has been beneficial in managing small stalls even though the shop owners are still relatively low in using the latest technology.Practical implications – This research can be a source of data for BAZNAS Tangerang City and researchers, in general, to evaluate the ZMart program and its implementation to improve the welfare of mustahik towards muzakki.Originality – most studies analyze ZMart as a mustahik empowerment program focusing on the programs it does. This research focused on the results of the ZMart program, which can provide welfare in managing the business to increase the degree of mustahik to become muzakki.
