Abstract

Study aim: Chronic hypertension is a significant health issue that can result in serious adverse cardiovascular events. There is inadequate evidence to confirm the beneficial effects of aroma foot massage and reflexology on blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) in individuals with hypertension. Consequently, this study sought to investigate the immediate impact of a combination of foot massage, reflexology, and aromatherapy on BP and HR in hypertensive patients.

Material and methods: Twenty hypertensive patients (mean age: 48.05 ± 7.88 years) were divided into two groups: a control group (n = 10) and an experimental group (n = 10). The experimental group engaged in self-administered foot massage and reflexology while inhaling lavender essential oil aromatherapy. In contrast, the control group remained in a private room without the use of aromatherapy. Heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) were measured before and after a 15-minute intervention period. Results: Both BP and HR significantly decreased in both groups after intervention. However, the percentage change of HR in the experimental group was significantly greater than in the control group (p = 0.001).

Conclusions: These results indicated that a single session of self-administered aroma foot massage and reflexology may reduce heart rate in patients with hypertension. This information could help mitigate the risk of cardiovascular events in such patients.

Published: February 2025

Objective: The present study aims to identify the best collection regime for the Rural Workers’ Assistance Fund (FUNRURAL) for rural producers.

Theoretical Framework: Agribusiness faces challenges related to the tax burden, which directly impacts the commercialization of products. Among the taxes that generate the greatest burden for the rural activity sector, FUNRURAL stands out.

Method: The methodology adopted combines a bibliographic review and a case study based on hypothetical data to analyze the two collection regimes of FUNRURAL: based on the gross revenue from sales and on the payroll.

Results and Discussion: The results indicated that the choice of the most appropriate regime directly depends on the characteristics of each rural property, such as production volume and the value of payroll expenses.

Research Implications: The analysis between the regimes demonstrated that there is no single best regime; it is necessary for each rural producer to evaluate their particular situation to make the most advantageous decision.

Originality/Value: The study contributes to the literature by concluding that rural producers should analyze their cost and revenue structures, considering both expected revenue and payroll expenses, to identify the best taxation option for FUNRURAL.

Objective: This article aims to analyze the public policies of the Rondônia State Sustainable Development Plan (PDES) in promoting family farming. The preparation of the Plan was guided by the guidelines of the National Policy for Regional Development (PNDR), established by Decree No. 6,047/2007.

Theoretical Framework: In the execution of the research, alternative theoretical approaches were used, exploring a theoretical line in the variables that address the representativeness of family farming through public policies aimed at the Sustainable Development Plan - PDES-RO.

Methods: With a qualitative methodology, an exploratory and descriptive design was chosen. Secondary data were obtained by analyzing records on the execution of PDES-RO - 2015/2030, and other legal regulations related to the topic. Data analysis was performed using the Content Analysis technique.

Results and Discussion: The research results showed that the projects underway are focused on agroecology and organic production policies, currently aimed mainly at indigenous and quilombola communities, due to the difficulty many family farmers have in meeting the criteria of not using pesticides (or agricultural pesticides), as they are located in regions where monoculture (e.g. soybeans, corn) and the use of these substances (pesticides) predominate.

Research Implications: The study contributes to the debate on the implementation of public policies that promote sustainable and territorial development in the state of Rondônia, offering insights into the challenges and opportunities for strengthening family farming. The research suggests improving the Plan, with an emphasis on promoting family farming, aiming to overcome the challenges that limit the implementation of the agroecology and organic production project, especially for indigenous and quilombola communities.

Originality/Value: The study is in line with previous studies on sustainable regional development in Brazil, which point to the need for greater participation of local stakeholders in defining problems and seeking solutions, as well as the importance of implementing the plan according to the needs of the stakeholders covered by the PDES-RO - 2015/2030 policy.

The Baduy indigenous community consists of the Inner Baduy and Outer Baduy residents, with their settlement area in Kanekes Village, Leuwidamar District, Lebak Regency, Banten. The cultural norms of Sunda Wiwitan prohibit Baduy residents from adopting modern values in areas such as education, healthcare, and Information technology. However, the current communication reality contradicts the customary rules, as Outer Baduy residents use Information technology to support activities in agriculture, trade of agricultural products, and marketing of handicrafts. The purpose of the study is to describe and analyze the phenomenon of the use of communication technology by the Baduy community. The ethnography of communication method is used to find the reality of interaction, practice and communication patterns. The Baduy indigenous community interacts with consumers through digital communication platforms. This reality can be reviewed from the perspective of symbolic interactionism and marketing communication.
The research was undertaken employing a qualitative approach and utilizing the method of virtual ethnography analysis. Data collection was conducted through direct observations within the Baduy community settlements, in-depth interviews with selected informants, engaging in Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), documentation of information content disseminated through social media platforms, as well as capturing photographic evidence. The application of the virtual ethnography method encompassed an analytical examination of the intricacies of communication realities, exploration of the roles assumed by communication actors, meticulous crafting of virtual messages, and an in-depth exploration of the utilization patterns observed in the realm of social media. The results showed that the communication behavior of the Baduy Kaduketuk Luar community is an adaptation of a mediated communication system. The use of communication technology media is done autodidactically. marketing communication is carried out by advertising, direct marketing to agents, social media publications, face-to-face communication, and word of mouth marketing.
Deindividuation Phenomenon among Anonymous Kpopers Account on Social Media X

Published: February 2025

Social media X allows its users to use anonymous accounts and hide their identities, leading Kpopers to prefer interacting anonymously. This study aims to describe the phenomenon of deindividuation that occurs among Kpopers using anonymous accounts on social media X. This study uses Social Identity of Deindividuation Effect (SIDE) theory. Deindividuation refers to a state where the individual acts differently than usual because considers theirself to be part of group. It employs a descriptive qualitative method with a phenomenological approach and data collection techniques through semi-structured interviews with five anonymous Kpopers account users who actively interact on social media X. Observation and documentation of comments and activities of the informants on social media X were also conducted. The research results show that deindividuation can be seen in the anonymous Kpopers accounts on social media X when they use a fan account. The use of anonymous accounts causes user behavior to prioritize their identity as Kpopers and place greater importance on group norms rather than their personal norms. This deindividuation phenomenon occurs due to three factors, including anonymity, group immersion, and reduced identifiability. The anonymity factor occurs because anonymous Kpopers account users feel more comfortable and freer to express their opinions as Kpopers due to negative stigma towards those who idolize Kpop when revealing their real identity. Individuals first became Kpopers and did not experience group immersion, but when they joined social media X using an anonymous account, they began to show symptoms of group immersion. By joining the Kpopers group and using anonymous accounts as their identity, they focus more on their identity as Kpopers rather than as individuals. This causes them to start forgetting their personal identity (reduced identifiability).

Published: February 2025

Abstract
New wells drilled in the Middle East's vast carbonate fields face significant damage from drilling and completion operations, which severely impacts productivity. Damage can extend from a few inches to over 3 feet into the formation, impairing permeability across pay zones. Natural permeability contrast, due to carbonate build-up over time and depositional environments, also affects lower zone productivity, requiring near-wellbore permeability enhancement. Conventional hydrochloric acid (HCl) is ineffective due to its high reaction rate. A retarded acid system is essential for controlling reaction rates and improving wormhole development.
The new methodology employed a bullheading operation, combining a high-viscous non-reactive solids-free (HVNRSF) chemical diverter with a single-phase retarded acid system (SPRAS). Coiled tubing (CT) was used throughout the operation, beginning with perforation conditioning prior to acid treatment. Real-time fiber optics combined with coiled tubing (FOECT) and distributed temperature surveys (DTS) were employed to identify high and low intake zones, enabling on-the-fly adjustments to the diversion strategy and monitoring the diverter's effectiveness.
During the 3-well campaign, significant injection pressure increases were observed when diverter pills reached the formation. DTS data demonstrated more uniform acid distribution across perforated intervals compared to previous methods. Production contribution from the bottom zone was validated using production logging data. Continuous well test production monitoring post-treatment with SPRAS and HVNRSF diverter pills showed a ~25% increase in production, due to enhanced penetration into the lower permeability formation.
The combination of SPRAS and HVNRSF chemical diverters significantly improved matrix stimulation, leading to a ~25% production increase. This paper shares the experiences and lessons learned during the initial campaign and provides recommendations for further improvement and broader implementation in the field.

Abstract
Multi-phase metering and testing of produced fluids from oil and gas wells is an indispensable daily task in oil fields. Efficient and accurate online metering of multiphase flow is a major proposition for lean management, digital transformation, and quality and efficiency improvement in oil fields. Multi-phase flow has complex components, changeable flow patterns, and a harsh on-site testing environment. The development of efficient, high-precision, widely applicable, and low-cost multi-phase metering methods and devices is a key technology to solve the above propositions, and it is also a global technical challenge. At present, metering in the metering room by tipping buckets and manual sampling and testing still dominate, with low precision and low efficiency, which seriously restricts the intelligent development of oil fields. In recent years, online metering and analysis technologies such as infrared, microwave, and radiation have developed, but their scope of application is narrow, their prices are high, and they have potential safety hazards, and they do not meet the conditions for large-scale promotion.
Magnetic resonance is a common laboratory detection technology for complex fluids and porous media. As a green, efficient and accurate means of quantitative oil and gas detection, it has been applied in the field of oil well logging. At present, the research on magnetic resonance technology in multiphase flow measurement and analysis has just started in the world, but it is widely recognized by the scientific and industrial communities as a technology with the most development potential for online oil and gas measurement and analysis. The breakthrough and application of online detection devices for oil and gas multiphase flow magnetic resonance can solve the problems existing in the existing separation and measurement technologies in an integrated manner.
With the depletion of oil and gas resources in old areas, reservoir transformation technologies represented by acid fracturing have become the main means for oil companies to increase production. The production data during the oil and gas testing stage is an important parameter for evaluating the fracturing effect. However, during the oil and gas testing stage, the flow rate of the produced fluid fluctuates greatly (e.g. the water content changes from 0 to 100%, and the gas-liquid ratio fluctuates from 0 to several thousand), which puts high demands on the range, frequency, and accuracy of the measuring instruments.
E-Line Solution for a Single-Run Combined Production Logging and ICD Shifting Operation: A Novel Approach

Published: February 2025

Abstract
The oil & gas industry has adopted intelligent completions with Inflow Control Devices (ICDs) extensively to achieve selective production and water control from various zones of a single reservoir. The conventional method to modify the opening/closing state of these ICDs involves coiled tubing (CT) with hydraulic shifting tools. This technique, however, has proven to be inefficient, inaccurate, and detrimental to the environment.
A novel approach was devised to overcome these challenges and improve operational efficiency, accuracy, and environmental sustainability, by integrating production logging tools (PLT) and an actuation device (Stroker) to adjust ICD positions through a single e-line conveyed tools string. This innovative solution deployed on E-Line enables the combination of the logging requirement with the ICD shifting into a single run, instead of the multiple runs required by a CT solution.
The E-line conveyed solution exhibited remarkable capabilities, such as conveying production logging tools in the horizontal section of the well to acquire production data and locate water-producing zones and shifting ICDs precisely. Post-shifting PLT data was utilized to accurately assess and demonstrate a reduction in water cut while the equipment remained downhole, ready to make any immediate adjustments to the other ICD positions.
The implementation of this solution resulted in a 50% reduction in operation time compared to conventional hydraulic CT shifting methods. Moreover, the transition to E-line technology significantly lowered harmful gas emissions, aligning with broader environmental sustainability goals. Additionally, the shifting solution proved its precision and reliability in ICD shifting, eliminating any uncertainty concerning the positioning of the ICDs.
The paper focuses on the authors’ experiences in the design, execution, and evaluation of this operation.
