Published: August 2020

The use of e-commerce in running a business has become a trend nowadays. This is marked by many consumers conducting online transactions to run their business or order the desired product because it is easy, fast and flexible. This study aims to analyze consumer characteristics, factors that influence the intention to buy products through e-commerce, and differences in consumers when shopping at malls and e-commerce. The approach in this study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. This research was conducted using accidental sampling techniques with respondents totaling 121 people. This study uses primary data which is done by distributing questionnaires directly to respondents totaling 121 respondents consisting of 121 respondents to e-commerce users in the Jabotabek region. Data analysis was performed using SEM using Partial Least Square (PLS) software. This study shows that most consumers are students and domiciled in Bogor and do not have jobs yet. The objective norms and attitudes toward behavior have no significant effect on buying intentions, whereas only hypotheses related to perceptions of behavior control have been shown to have a significant effect on it. This means that consumers prefer shopping at the mall compared to shopping online.
Características estructurales y demográficas de Juniperus deppeana Steud. en dos localidades del estado de Tlaxcala
Authors: Herrerías Mier Laura Gabriela , Nieto de Pascual Cecilia Carmen
Published: August 2020

Juniperus deppeana es una especie tolerante a la sequía y al fuego, capaz de desarrollarse en suelos con condiciones adversas, razón por la cual se le considera una especie con potencial para la conservación de suelos. Sin embargo, en México ha sido poco estudiada, ya que no tiene un valor relevante en la industria forestal. En el estado de Tlaxcala existen poblaciones abundantes de este género, por lo que se seleccionaron las localidades El Pardo (EP) y Acopinalco del Peñón (RAP) para analizar las características estructurales y demográficas de los individuos presentes de J. deppeana; así como determinar la influencia de algunos factores abióticos. Los análisis de t de Student indicaron valores promedio significativos en la altura, diámetro mayor, diámetro menor y en la cobertura. No se obtuvo relación significativa entre las variables dasométricas con la pendiente y la orientación de las parcelas de muestreo. La relación del DAP con la cobertura fue significativa. La curva de supervivencia para ambas localidades presentó un patrón tipo III. Los análisis estadísticos confirmaron que la estructura de tamaños difiere entre los sitios de muestreo. Se deduce que el comportamiento poblacional de J. deppeana acusa una pérdida alta de individuos jóvenes, lo que supone un riesgo para su regeneración natural. Por otro lado, aunque los ejemplares en el predio sujeto a manejo forestal reúnen características dasométricas más favorables, se requiere de estudios a largo plazo bajo un enfoque más integral, a fin de determinar las posibilidades de conservación de esta especie.
Nutrición inicial en una reforestación de Juniperus deppeana Steud. y su capacidad de rebrote posincendio
Authors: Rivera Torres Pedro Sinai , Gómez Guerrero Armando , Adrete Arnulfo , Montes Recinas Saraí
Published: August 2020

Las especies forestales de lento crecimiento son las menos estudiadas. Con un experimento de fertilización (N-P-K) se evaluó el caso de brinzales de Juniperus deppeana y su capacidad de rebrote posincendio. Se aplicaron tres niveles de N y P y dos de K para un total de 18 tratamientos con seis repeticiones. Adicionalmente, se comparó en plantas de uno y dos años de edad el incremento en diámetro a la base (IDB). Seis meses después de la fertilización solo la interacción N-P-K fue significativa (P<0.06) para IDB. Los tratamientos con niveles más altos de N presentaron el mayor IDB. A los siete meses de establecido el experimento, se presentó un incendio, y a partir de ese momento se determinó la capacidad de rebrote y concentración de macronutrientes (N-P-K-Ca-Mg-S), para ello se consideró el antecedente de la fertilización. Los efectos evaluados en el experimento fueron la fertilización, edad de la planta y daño por incendio. El porcentaje de rebrote posterior al incendio fue de 84 %. Contrario a lo esperado, los rebrotes de brinzales con antecedentes de fertilización presentaron menor concentración de nutrientes. La recuperación de estos en los individuos de J. deppeana posincendio está determinada por la redistribución de las reservas de nutrientes en el suelo y la planta. Para especies de lento crecimiento, como J. deppeana, la planta de dos años de edad es más recomendable para el establecimiento en plantaciones, por sus mayores tasas de incremento.
Legalization of land pawning at Balinese community customs in North Lombok
Authors: Aditi I Gusti Ayu
Published: August 2020

This study aims to conduct a study of land pawning legalization, particularly regarding the basis and principles of pawning agricultural land in Balinese community customs in North Lombok. This phenomenon is related to the still implementation of the land pawning system under customary law, in the sense that the implementation still refers to the interests of people who have strong capital. This research is designed in a qualitative descriptive research type using a case study approach. The results of this study found that the Legal Basis and the principle of implementing agricultural land pawning refer to the national law which is imbued with customary law, namely with the characteristics of communalistic customary law, religious magic in dealing in agreement in words and actions. There are two kinds of land pawning, namely dead pawning, and life pawning. Dead pawning recognizes the time limit for land returning without a living pawning ransom. Living pawning does not recognize the minimum time limit that the mortgaged can do one harvest before it can be redeemed. Transactions carried out with legal assistance or testimony from the hamlet head or village head will be clear, guaranteed, or protected by law, especially against claims from third parties.

Authors: Yanti Novi , Nurtati Nurtati
Published: August 2020

The allocation of development budget can accelerate the pace of economic growth in the implementation of fiscal decentralization. Through locally-generated revenue management and regional government, balance funds can increase their income through the use of appropriate capital expenditure however economic growth is not always linear with all sources of revenue. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of regional revenue and balance funds partially and simultaneously on capital expenditure and its impact on economic growth. The research method is quantitative with a longitudinal research time-series design.  The study was conducted in the Regency / City of West Sumatra Province with secondary data from the Central Statistics Agency in 2009-2018. Research analysis using multiple linear regression test and path analysis. The results showed that Locally-generated revenue, general, and special allocation fund partially and simultaneously have a significant effect on capital expenditure, but the profit-sharing fund partially has no significant effect on capital expenditure. Locally-generated revenue, profit-sharing funds, general and special allocation fund, and capital expenditure partially and simultaneously have a significant effect on economic growth. Likewise, capital expenditure has a positive effect on economic growth which is mediated by locally-generated revenue and special allocation funds, while capital expenditure does not significantly influence economic growth mediated by general allocation funds and profit-sharing funds

Published: August 2020

The objective of this study is to evaluate the applicability of the finite element method to analyze pressure distribution in the healthy human foot. Images of a foot were captured using computed tomography and converted into a three-dimensional model, which was adjusted with the aid of CAD software. The model was imported into Abaqus software for finite element analysis, considering the different regions of the foot. Observations of displacement, stresses, and pressure distribution demonstrated a biomechanical behavior of the foot consistent with that reported in the existing literature, regarding the regions of peak plantar pressure. These findings demonstrate the feasibility of evaluating the physical and mechanical behavior of the human foot using the finite element method, and can serve as a reference for the study and manufacture of orthotic appliances, prosthetic devices, and insoles.

Authors: Yardım Kılıçkan Zişan , Karacan Rıdvan
Published: August 2020

Traditional
production is carried out using fossil fuels. In recent years, the destructive
effects of fossil fuel elimination especially on human health and the environment
became prominent. This effect leads to an increase in health expenditures (HE),
and health problems that are severe and require long term therapies. To counter
this problem, some countries have taken some measures to mini the effects of fossil
fuels. One of these measures is called “Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry”
or LULUCF for short. LULUCF aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the
atmosphere by natural means that are cheap. In this regard, this paper aims to analyze
the effects of harmful gases of total emissions in terms of health expenditures
both including LULUCF (LI) and excluding LULUCF (LE). Panel data methodology
and SPSS Path (Structural Equation) Model were used and cover G7 countries between
1990 and 2016. It was found that there is no linear relationship between LE and
HE and LI has no effect on HE. Path analysis showed a negative correlation
between LI total emission and SH and a positive correlation between LE total
emission and HE.

Published: August 2020

The Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic has caused changes in all areas of human life. The field of law is no exception to this list. In particular, the issues of conducting other people’s affairs without a power of attorney have become especially relevant, as social distancing and restrictions on social activity have led to a significant increase in the practical need for the application of this legal institution. The significance of this study is also important in connection with the comparative analysis of the normative aspect and the practical measurement of the application of the institute of conducting other people’s affairs without a power of attorney in Ukraine and Poland. These two countries are comparable in territory, number of citizens, legal tradition, but Poland has become member of the European Union, while Ukraine has remained on the sidelines of European civilization. The dialectical method, the method of comparative analysis and system analysis were chosen as the methodological basis of the research. The authors of the article concluded that institute of conducting other people’s affairs without a power of attorney is characterized by an increased level of social utility. In such cases, the one who protects the interests of others without a power of attorney, as a rule, acts not only in the interests of the individual but also in the interests of the society. Thus, it helps to protect single people, the elderly ones, disabled individuals and other groups which are socially unprotected and thus prevent the pandemic spread.

Published: August 2020

The article is devoted to the analysis of domestic violence in the context of Covid-19. The research is carried out for the first time in the focus of several sciences: psychology, sociology, and jurisprudence. To study the legal regulation of domestic violence, knowledge from different branches of law was used: international, criminal, administrative, and civil procedural law. Attention was paid to the historical retrospective—how the concept of domestic violence first appeared at the world level, and how it was differentiated and implemented in the national legislation of the participating countries. The problems of signing the Istanbul Agreement are highlighted. Special attention was paid to the current wave of domestic violence as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. The prerequisites of a general psychological, social, and economic nature, their interdependence, and connection with the pandemic were investigated. The scale of the scourge of domestic violence in the context of a pandemic in different countries is indicated, and its short-term and long-term consequences for the well-being of the nation. The specific mechanisms for preventing family violence at three levels are considered: general criminogenic, a comprehensive mechanism for preventing violence at the level of interaction between the state and public organizations, and directly special means. The study concludes that Covid-19 pandemic has a direct impact on the exacerbation of domestic violence. The solutions are proposed, from legislative amendments to the redistribution of state and public forces to address the problem of domestic violence.

Standardization of ceramic shape: A case study from the Iron Age pottery from northeastern Taiwan
Authors: Wang Li-Ying , Marwick Ben
Published: August 2020

The emergence of ceramic specialization in prehistoric societies is often linked to shifts in the complexity of social structures, because standardized ceramic production can reflect craft specialization and the presence of elite control. Previous work on identifying specialization relies on typological or linear metric analysis. Here we demonstrate how to investigate ceramic standardization by analyzing outlines of ceramic vessels. Outline analysis is useful because, unlike more commonly-used landmark analysis methods, it can effectively quantify shape differences for objects that lack distinctive measurement points needed for landmark analysis. We demonstrate this method using pottery from Kiwulan, a large multi-component Iron Age site (AD 1350-1850) in northeastern Taiwan. To measure ceramic specialization, we quantified pottery standardization by analyzing shape variables with reproducible geometric morphometric methods. We computed coefficients of variation (CVs) for shape coefficients obtained by elliptical Fourier analysis to test for shape standardization. We found significant differences in pottery shape and shape standardization that indicate changes in pottery production resulting from contact with mainland Han Chinese groups in northeastern Taiwan. Our case study, which includes an openly available research compendium of R code, represents an innovative application of outline-based methods in geometric morphometry to answer the anthropological questions of craft specialization.

Correction: The page numbers on this article were changed from 4-20 to 3-19 on 31/08/2020.

Introduction: We presume that the knowledge of patients about Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI) scan is of utmost importance for smooth workflow, patient comfort, patients’ safety and to mitigate patients’ compliance and save valuable scan time. Therefore, the purpose ofthis study was to determine the awareness of patients undergoing MRI scan regarding Knowledge, Perception and Safety.

Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out in Chitwan Medical College Teaching Hospital from April to September, 2018. Total of 310 patients referred to undergo MRI scan were assessed by a questionnaire form covering 4 parts: Part 1- aimed to gather the socio demographic data such as age, sex, occupation and educational status of patients, Part 2- included the knowledge regarding MRI and its safety, Part 3- comprised the patient perception before MRI scan and Part 4 constituted the patient perception after MRI scan.The form was filled by an investigator oneself in a face to face interview with the patients.

Results: Among 310 patients, 35.2% were illiterate and 19.4% graduated from high school. Majority of 85.5% patients answered that MRI uses harmful ionizing radiation like CT scan and radiography. Almost 43 patients who answered MRI functions in disease treatment also answered decreased in pain after MRI scan (Male = 15 and Female = 28) were in age group between 25 years and 50 years. This study also revealed that majority of 26.8% (i.e. n = 83) patients faced problem as claustrophobia along with anxiety during the scan, out of which 13 patients have history of previous MRI scan.

Conclusions: In our study decrease in pain was higher in diagnosis and treatment answer. Majority of the patients faced anxiety along with claustrophobia during the MRI scan. Assessment of patient knowledge, perception and safety regarding MRI scan can be the key to increase patient compliance and save valuable scan time.

Multi-Parametric Optimisation by Quantitative Assessment of Distribution Index and Area Fraction of Composite
Authors: Sharma A. , Rastogi V. , Agrawal A. Kumar
Published: August 2020

The mechanical properties of the particulate reinforced composites are profoundly affected by two significant factors, fraction of reinforcement in the matrix and the distribution of the reinforced particles in the matrix. In this paper, a novel approach is adopted where a newly developed distribution index and area fraction of the composites are quantitatively determined through microstructural image analysis method, and the process parameters are optimised for maximum area fraction and minimum distribution index. The distribution index (D
index) is calculated by estimating the free-path spacing within particles. The stir casting process parameters (stirrer rpm, time of stirring, furnace temperature and preheat temperatures) are optimised by Box-Behnken design of response surface methodology. The quantitatively assessed responses provide an authentic base for optimisation of process parameters. The experimental responses corresponding to the optimised parameters are within the range of the responses estimated by the confirmation test of optimisation with a 95 % confidence level.

Eszkalálódott olvasás
Authors: Fogarasi György
Published: August 2020

Az utóbbi évtizedek távoli versus szoros olvasásról folytatott vitái általában a léptékek körül forogtak. A vitában résztvevők vagy a távolság (avagy sebesség), vagy pedig a közelség (avagy lassúság) mellett szálltak síkra. Egy metakritikai szinten egyesek amellett érveltek, hogy minden olvasásnak képesnek kell lennie a különböző léptékek váltogatására vagy kombinálására. Kevés szó esett ugyanakkor az efféle skálázás korlátairól, és arról, hogy az olvasás mennyire nem redukálható a skála-logikára. A közeli és a távoli olvasás szószólóinak néhány elgondolkodtató megfogalmazásából kiindulva ez a tanulmány a skálázásban rejlő lehetőségeket és buktatókat próbálja feltárni. Először „Stanford” (mint egyetem és mint alapító) lesz fókuszban, aztán Walter Benjamin filmmel kapcsolatos fejtegetése kerül terítékre, végül a tanulmány Poe Az ellopott levél című detektívtörténetének pár részletét olvassa újra. Ez a három hivatkozási pont (Stanford, Benjamin, Poe) egymással párhuzamba állítható, amennyiben egyszerre hangsúlyozzák a szerializálást és a szegmentálást, a gyorsítást és a lassítást, avagy a távolságot és a közelséget. Közelebbről (vagy távolabbról?) nézve azonban Poe szövege túl is lép a skálázás eme logikáján. Olyan detekciós elvről tanúskodik, amely meghaladja a merőben be- vagy kizúmolásra építő stratégiákat, és az olvasás olyan fogalma felé mutat, amely nem csupán rendkívüli sebességbeli vagy távolságbeli léptéke miatt mondható „eszkalálódottnak”, hanem – elemibb szinten – azért, mert miközben továbbra is léptékekhez köti az olvasást, olyan vetülete is van, mely teljességgel kívül esik a skálázás bármiféle logikáján.

O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar a atenção de atletas de futebol em diferentes categorias de base. Foram avaliados 321 atletas de futebol de 4 categorias: sub-14 (n=77), sub-15 (n=66), sub-17 (n=78) e sub-20 (n=99). Utilizou-se o Cognitrone Test para avaliar a atenção através das variáveis tempo de resposta (TR) medida em segundos e precisão das respostas (PR) avaliada pelo número de acertos no teste. Os valores encontrados do TR foram: 1,74s na categoria sub-14, 1,76s na sub-15, 1,70s na sub-17 e 1,81 na sub-20. Não foram encontradas diferenças (p=0,151) no TR dos atletas entre as diferentes categorias. Já a PR dos atletas das categorias sub-14, sub-15 e sub-17 foi de 51 acertos, e dos atletas da sub-20 foi de 54 acertos. Os atletas da sub-20 apresentaram maiores valores de PR em dentrimento aos atletas das demais categorias (p<0,001). Conclui-se que os atletas da categoria sub-20 apresentaram resultado superior na precisão das respostas (PR) que está associada a assertividade e atenção na tomada de decisão das situações do teste.

Free-range chicken raised under extensive and semi-intensive systems has access to outside areas for grazing and exercise practices, which allows greater environmental exposure to infectious agents. The goal of the present study was to determine the presence of gastrointestinal parasites in a free-range chicken farm in the municipality of Carmo do Paranaíba, MG, in addition to establishing the possible risk factors. The study was carried out in a breeding of 1800 free-range chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus), bred under the semi-intensive production system, housed in eight sheds, separated by breeding phase according to age (Phases: Pre-initial 1 and 2- compound by birds of five to 10 weeks, Initial 1 and 2- 10 to 16 weeks and Slaughter 1 and 2- 16 to 20 weeks). The sample was based on the expected average occurrence of 55.4%, according to a previous study, totaling 268 samples, about 45 samples / box. The determination of the occurrence of parasites was carried out by collecting excreta in a cardboard positioned under the perch and the birds were expected to defecate and about 10 grams of the upper part of the excreta were collected, with subsequent evaluation by qualitative (Willis and Hoffman) and quantitative methods (n eggs/blade). Risk factors were assessed using an epidemiological questionnaire, with selection of the variables: age, type of feeding, disposal and periodic change of flock litter, control of entry and exit of birds in the flocks, deworming and vaccination. A non-parametric Odds Ratio test was used for two independent samples, with a significance level of 5% for the analysis of risk factors. The determined occurrence was 57.46% (154/268) and differed between the breeding phases in the semi-intensive system. The slaughter phase showed a lower frequency of eggs (46.06%) compared to the initial phases (Pre-initial 61.79% and Initial 64.44%) (P

Neosporosis is considered one of the main diseases causing abortion in dairy farming worldwide. Neospora caninum is identified as a causal of reproductive problems and neurological disorders. The goal was to detect anti-Neospora caninum antibodies in cow, in the municipality of Tiros, MG, besides establish the possible risk factors involved. A total of 100 serum samples were collected from cow in 20 different rural properties with diagnosis based on serology by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Descriptive statistical analysis (absolute and relative frequencies) and determination of risk factors by the non-parametric Odds Ratio test for two independent samples was performed, considering a significance level of 5%. The detected occurrence was 36% (36/100). The risk factor identified was the lack of assistance from the veterinarian (P < 0.0451). All properties (100%, 20/20) evaluated had a recent history of reproductive changes, such as abortion, repetition of heat and / or retention of fetal attachments, therefore, epidemiological studies are needed to identify the possible etiological agents involved to minimize possible economic impacts, as well as the permanent and vigorous performance of the veterinarian in the rural properties of the municipality

The state in which the animal is found directly interferes with the degree of its well-being, compromising the production and quality of products of animal origin. In this sense, the search by the market for quality products that aim at the welfare of animals has led producers to seek alternative ways of handling such as, for example, the as animals are housed. Animals, when improperly housed, are prevented from performing normal behaviors of the species. When the installation does not favor interactions either with the environment or with other animals, stereotypies may occur. Such behavior can indicate that the animal is having a poor welfare and consequently these factors will interfere with the quality of production. Therefore, the objective of the present work is to realize a literature review, addressing the importance of welfare for calves during lactation and weaning submitted to different rearing systems.

Safe and effective capture, immobilization or anesthesia of wild animals, such nail monkey (Sapajus lididinosus), is generally required for research and management purposes, as well as surgical and diagnostic procedures, and of the neotropical species, it is the one that presents greater geographical distribution. The genus has been used in several researches, given its phylogenetic proximity to the human species, serving as a biological model in experiments applied to this species There are a variety of anesthetic protocols used so that the capture and handling of nail monkey is performed simply and safely. The objective of this study is to report the use of the combination of dexmedetomidine with ketamine, morphine and midazolam for the chemical restraint of eight adult nail monkeys submitted to two surgical procedures, to vasectomy and ligation of elective tubes, with the goal of establishing a safe and effective chemical containment and containment protocol for the species in captivity. During the surgical procedures the physiological parameters of heart rate and respiratory rate and rectal temperature and oxyhemoglobin saturation by pulse oximetry of the eight nail monkeys were monitored. At the end of the surgeries, the animals received atipamezole intramuscularly. The protocol used was safe and effective for the chemical containment of nail monkeys in captivity submitted to different surgical procedures allowing reversal of the pharmacological effects at the end of the surgery.
Primeiro relato da ocorrência de Hepatozoon spp. no município de Santa Teresa-ES
Authors: Barroso Rogerio
Published: August 2020

Hepatozoonosis is a disease caused by a protozoan of Hepatozoon genus. In Brazil, Hepatozoon canis has been reported to cause disease in dogs. Transmission occurs after ingestion of infected ticks, and the muscles and leukocytes are parasitism locations. Muscle tremors, myalgia and clinical hyperthermia are signals that can occur in affected dogs. Diagnosis can be accomplished by the detection of gamonts forms inside leukocytes from blood smears and for the treatment, imidocarb dipropionate is the drug of choice. The objective of this work is to describe the first case of canine hepatozoonosis in the municipality of Santa Teresa-ES, using the medical records of the infected animal. This study highlights the possibility of underdiagnosis of the disease, probably due to the lack of veterinarian’s knowledge about it and it also reviews the literature about this little-known parasite.
Leishmaniose em equídeos: Revisão
Authors: Marcolongo-Pereira Clairton
Published: August 2020

Leishmaniasis is an anthropozoonosis caused by a protozoan of the genus Leishmania, transmitted predominantly by the bite of sand flies of the genus Lutzomya. It is a disease of high relevance in public health. The objective of this paper was to review leishmaniasis in horses. In these animals, the disease causes papulonodular and/or ulcerated lesions and rarely lymphadenopathy. The diagnosis is made mainly by the histopathological examination of the skin lesions and by serological methods. Leishmaniasis should be included in the differential diagnosis of cutaneous diseases in horses that are not responsive to antibiotics and antifungals. Equine leishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease and its importance in the human leishmaniasis transmission cycle is still unclear.

The aim of this present study was to evaluate the frequency of gastrointestinal helminths of small animals in the public parks at Pelotas-RS. During the 12 month period of the study, from October 2018 to September 2019, 470 environmental feces samples were collected with the help of plastic bags in 10 public parks and they were sent in an isothermal container to the Group Study Laboratory on Parasitic Diseases (GEEP), FAVET-UFPel, in which the samples were processed using the Willis Mollay’s coproparasitological techniques (1921) and Spontaneous sedimentation (HPJ 1934). The results obtained showed that 41.1% (n = 193) of the samples were positive for some parasitic genus, with the most common helminth being Ancylostoma spp (57.0%), followed by Dipylidium caninum (26.9% ), Trichuris vulpis (10.9%), Toxocara spp. (4.2%), Capillaria spp. (0.52%) and Spirometra spp. (0.52%). It is concluded with the accomplishment of the work that there are helminth eggs whit zoonotic potential in public parks at Pelotas City - RS, showing a risk of zoonosis transmission to the population that pass by these places, as well as the transmission among other animals.
