Imaginário, saberes e religiosidade amazônica na poesia de Bruno de Menezes
Authors: Martins Guilherme Luís Mendes 
Published: September 2024

Este trabalho busca-se analisar a literatura na perspectiva negra. Neste sentido um autor que pode ser trabalhado em sala de aula é Bruno de Menezes. Poeta modernista que consegue dar ao negro uma posição até então subestimada por outros autores. A partir da leitura de Bruno de Menezes os alunos podem ser convidados a fazer sua própria poesia. Deste modo, não somente com o poeta Bruno de Menezes, mas qualquer assunto relacionado a África pode ser uma forma de incentivar e estimular a poesia. Mas aqui destaca-se a literatura brasileira, pois ocorrem dois momentos. No primeiro, é observada a condição escravista dos negros, de modo que suas ações expressam somente a opressão vivida pelos mesmos. O domínio das letras pertencia à elite intelectual, senhores de escravos que enviavam seus filhos a Europa e quando retornavam, continuavam o processo de escravidão. A partir da influência iluminista houve certo avanço no que diz respeito à concepção de política escravista. No entanto, isto não foi suficiente para mudar o regime, uma vez que havia o interesse capitalista. O negro de escravo passa a ser operário da classe burguesa. Neste momento, poetas como Castro Alves, ainda apresentam um negro sem reação diante da opressão vivida por sua classe. Num segundo momento, especialmente no século XX, poetas da Escola Modernista apontam para as contribuições do negro, quer sejam no âmbito cultural, econômico, religioso, político e social. Um grande expoente foi o poeta Bruno de Menezes, o qual enfatiza não só a estética negra como algo belo, mas, sobretudo as contribuições dos agentes negros que a historiografia e a literatura ofuscaram. Saindo da perspectiva positivista que exaltava somente grandes heróis como a Princesa Isabel, pois mesmo ela segundo consta foi influenciada pelos milagres de Nossa Senhora Aparecida quando os elos da corrente de um negro foram quebrados por um milagre da santa. Assim, as mães pretas, os capoeiristas dentre outros, são cidadãos que aparecem como sujeitos do processo de emancipação negra. Neste sentido, acredita-se que os negros tomam consciência de classe e inauguram um novo momento dentro da literatura recebendo influências da concepção marxista para expressar um novo contexto que é de suma importância para romper com teorias literárias burguesas as quais reduziam a literatura numa concepção estrutural passando para uma escrita engajada. Isto não significa dizer que antes os negros não escreviam, entretanto suas produções não eram consideradas interessantes para os que desejavam permanecer com seu status quo. Negavam assim a contribuição daqueles que foram instrumentos de desenvolvimento do Brasil. Este estudo dará ênfase para o segundo momento da literatura brasileira baseando-se nos poemas de Bruno de Menezes bem como nos trabalhos publicados pelos autores Costa(2009); Luciano e Neto (2009).

Facing or Retreating? Evaluating The Impact of Corruption, Financial Access, and Gender on Corporate Tax Compliance
Authors: Ainun Nisa Safira , Sintia Wati Dwi , Syifaudin Ahmad 
Published: September 2024

This study investigates how corruption, financial access, and gender affect tax compliance. 52 nations' worth of World Bank Survey data from 2019 to 2023 are used in this analysis. This investigation's results demonstrate that corruption positively impacts tax compliance. The second conclusion is that money availability improves tax compliance. The conclusion is that tax compliance has no benefit from having female senior managers. The keys to increasing tax compliance are avoiding dishonest behavior, paying taxes cooperatively, and allowing businesses to obtain financing. Our study incorporates the gender of firm managers, access to financing, and corruption into a model to forecast how enterprises will comply.

Authors: Wardah Astarini Rifqah , Syahrul Muhammad Zulfadli , Nour Mustafa , Indra Beni , Aladin Aladin , Irramah Miftah 
Published: September 2024

Background: Dysmenorrhea is a menstrual pain that is often experienced by young women, with a global prevalence of 16.8-81%. In Indonesia, the prevalence reaches 54.89%, with adolescent girls being the largest group. Treatment generally uses analgesics, but it has side effects. Yoga as a non-pharmacological therapy can reduce pain through muscle relaxation.
Purpose: Analyzing the effect of yoga therapy on the intensity of the degree of dysmenorrhea in female students of the Class of 2018 Undergraduate Medical Education Study Program, Faculty of Medicine, Andalas University.
Methods: This research uses a pure experimental design with a pre-test, post-test, and only group design, with a sample size of 32 people. The research instrument used in the study was a pre-test and post-test questionnaire, which contained VAS scores and guidelines regarding yoga movements. The questionnaire contains a Visual Analog Scale (VAS), which consists of a vertical scale from 0 to 10 cm.
Results: The results showed there were no differences related to age. As many as 18% of respondents usually took analgesics, while 81.3% did not take analgesics to treat dysmenorrhea before yoga therapy. Meanwhile, after yoga therapy, 5 out of 6 respondents who usually consumed analgesics in previous menstrual cycles no longer consumed analgesics, and one respondent still consumed analgesics. Bivariate analysis showed a value of p=0.00 (p<0.05), which means there is a relationship between the provision of yoga therapy and the degree of dysmenorrhea. Where providing yoga therapy can reduce the intensity of pain in respondents who experience dysmenorrhea.
Conclusion: This research concludes that there is a significant relationship between the provision of yoga therapy and the degree of dysmenorrhea.

Authors: Yasser Farah , Lahbar Ghulam Murtaza , Ali Dua , Zaidi Ali Raza 
Published: September 2024

Intellectual capital (I.C.) and other intangible assets have changed the modern economy, especially knowledge-intensive fields like banking. Utilizing the VAIC model, the study examines the correlation between financial performance and I.C. efficiency in Islamic institutions in Pakistan. This research fills a void in the literature regarding Islamic banking's role in improving financial performance by concentrating on Islamic banking's distinctive context governed via Shariah-compliant principles. The research sample includes 11 Islamic banks; more studies evaluate I.C. components and banks' financial performance through AMOS software. The findings suggest that greater I.C. efficiency, mainly through human and structural capital, positively impacts financial outcomes, offering insights into how Islamic banks optimize intangible assets to enhance financial performance. This research helps banks improve economic competitiveness and sustainability, centred on knowledge and recognition of Islamic banking I.C.'s strategic position.

Self-Reported Health and Associated Factors among Nepalese Older Adults
Authors: Chalise Hom Nath 
Published: September 2024

Background: Self-reported health (SRH) is a subjective measurement tool for overall health status that integrates biological, social, mental, and functional aspects of individuals.
Objectives: The purpose of this article is to assess the SRH and its correlates among community-living older adults.
Methods: This study is a secondary analysis of structured interview data collected by the Central Department of Population Studies at Tribhuvan University (TU) via a cross-sectional survey of community-dwelling persons aged 60+ in the Pharping area of Kathmandu. For this study, there were 1320 valid responses. A simple and direct question was used “In general, how do you rate your general health?” Its answer was recorded on the 5-point Likert scale ranging from “Very Good to Very Bad”.
Results: The mean age of the participants was 69.92 years. Of the participants, 19.2% reported poor SRH. Results show mental health problems, total number of children still alive, age of respondent, literacy status, physical health problem now, satisfaction with current living arrangements, walking efficiency, adequate income sources, marital status and currently working were correlated with SRH. However, linear regression shows that significant factors of SRH are walking efficiency (β= 0.324, 95% CI= 0.240 to 0.323), physical health problems (β = -0.258, 95% CI= -0.493 to -0.346), currently working (β: 0.197, 95% CI=0.223 to 0.373), having enough income to meet basic needs (β: 0.065, 95% CI= -0.136 to -0.021) and satisfied with living arrangements (β= 0.065, 95% CI= 0.018 to 0.116).
Conclusion: Nepal is aging rapidly, and the proportion of older people will increase in the coming days. Walking efficiency, physical health, currently working and having sufficient income are important factors related to SRH. Identifying these determinants through self-rated status can support the planning of actions aimed at improving the health of the community living older adults.

Authors: Acharya Pandey Radha , Chalise Hom Nath , Shrestha Anupa 
Published: September 2024

Background: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is one of the most common chronic health conditions in older people and is increasingly becoming a major public health concern.
Objectives: The study aims to assess the quality of life among older patients living with COPD.
Methods: A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted from February 2017 to July 2018 in a tertiary care hospital in Kavre, Nepal. A total of 220 patients aged 60 years and above were the respondents. Quality of Life (QOL) of participants was assessed through a widely used shorter version of ST George’s Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ-C). The mean and Pearson correlation coefficients were used while analysing the data.
Results: The mean total score for all domains of QOL was 68.57 (SD=18.66). The mean QOL scores for symptom, activity, and impact domains were 70.51 (SD=±22.37), 68.12 (SD=±23.42), and 68.19 (SD=±20.32) respectively, which suggested marked impairments in QOL in all SGRQ-C domains. The factors significantly related to the overall QOL of COPD patients in this study were: gender, education, type of family, and economic status.
Conclusion: Nepalese older patients with COPD had poor quality of life. Older patients with COPD had an impaired QOL in all three components of symptom, activity, and impact domains. There should be some initiation on how the QOL of older patients with COPD can be improved.
Nervous System, Neurons, and Metabolism
Authors: Konukoglu Dildar 
Published: September 2024

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that leads to cognitive decline and is the most common form of dementia in the elderly. Neurons, as the primary cells of the central nervous system, are fundamental to brain function. Understanding their structure and functions is crucial for grasping AD mechanisms.
Neurons consist of three main components: the cell body (soma), dendrites, and axon. The cell body is the metabolic center of the neuron, containing the nucleus and organelles. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons, while axons transmit these signals to other neurons or muscle cells. Synaptic terminals at the end of axons release neurotransmitters, facilitating communication between neurons.
Neuronal metabolic activities include energy production, protein synthesis, and intracellular transport. Mitochondria play a crucial role in energy production, and mitochondrial dysfunction is a significant factor in AD. Reduced energy production adversely affects neuronal functionality and survival. In conclusion, the structure and metabolic processes of neurons play a critical role in the pathogenesis of AD. The disruption of neuronal structures and functions leads to the clinical manifestations of AD. Therefore, protecting neurons and supporting their functions are crucial targets in the treatment of AD.The initial part of the book provides an essential understanding of neuron biology, focusing on their functions and energy metabolism. The section examines the structural characteristics of neurons and their roles in neural communication. The chapter emphasizes efficient metabolic pathways, detailing glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, and ATP generation, and highlights the critical dependence of neuronal function on a continuous and sufficient energy supply.
A Modified SIVR Mathematical Model of Covid-19 Post-vaccination Stability Analysis in Kenya
Authors: M Mocheche George 
Published: September 2024

In this paper, the study focused on carrying out a stability analysis on a modified SIR model for the COVID-19 pandemic for the period after vaccination in Kenya. The purpose of the work was to show that whereas the rate and the extent of disease spread amongst the Kenyan people was not as wide spread as happened in other parts of the world, it was necessary for government and policy makers to roll out a robust civic education to convince the majority of the Kenyan population to embrace vaccination as a major containment measure in curbing the spread of COVID-19 and other infectious diseases since the study revealed that the infections drastically reduced to near zero after vaccination except for a few isolated cases that were and still continue to exhibit mild symptoms to none at all. This was attributed to the development of the vaccine which upon a massive campaign by the Kenyan government, led into a significant portion of the population being vaccinated. It is believed this vaccination drive enhanced herd immunity amongst the population. This development has had a significant effect in the control of more recent COVID-19 variants like JN-1 that have remained largely mild and undetected in the country. Both local and global post vaccination stabilities were analyzed for the system using the Lyapunov function. The main objective of the study was therefore to carry out a post vaccination stability analysis by estimating key parameters such as the basic reproduction number, ( R0) and herd immunity threshold (HIT) for infectious diseases by fitting data into the model to enable predictions of future dynamics of the disease. The study used the Next Generation matrix and the least square method besides the Python software to solve generated differential equations of the model for and HIT parameters. Results obtained showed that, there was a significant reduction in infections due to enhanced herd immunity attributed largely to the roll out of vaccination.

Published: September 2024

Background and Objectives: The Tambaklorok fishing village area, located on the northern coast of Semarang City, Indonesia, is susceptible to sea level fluctuations, which often lead to tidal flooding and seawater encroaching into residential areas. Consequently, a seawater flood detector (rob) is needed for effective disaster mitigation for affected communities. This study aims to implement a disaster mitigation system by installing an IoT-based Seawater Flood (Rob) Early Warning System to reduce disaster risks and their impacts on the community.
Methods: The IoT-based Early Warning System is designed to detect floods by monitoring sea level height parameters.
Results: IoT-based devices measure sea level using ultrasonic sensors, with the readings processed by a microprocessor. The data is then periodically analyzed and transmitted to an application in real-time. This technology allows for real-time information dissemination through web applications and alerts in the form of sirens. These warnings enable residents to evacuate and move to safer areas. The siren alerts are categorized into two levels: Alert 1 indicates that seawater is approaching the land boundary, while Alert 2 signals that water has begun to enter residential areas. Additionally, designated evacuation zones will guide affected communities to safer areas.
Conclusion: The installation of an IoT-based Early Warning System delivers real-time information to help mitigate the impact of rising sea levels (rob) in the Tambak Lorok fishing village community.
Internationale Rechnungslegung als Grundlage der steuerlichen Gewinnermittlung aus Sicht des BMF
Authors: Albrecht Anett 
Published: September 2024

Zusammenfassung
Maßgeblich für die Steuerbilanz sind nach aktueller Rechtslage gem. § 5 Abs. 1 Satz 1 EStG die handelsrechtlichen Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung (GoB). Dahinter steht die Idee der sog. Einheitsbilanz, deren derzeitige gesetzliche Ausgestaltung durch eine große Anzahl steuerlicher Durchbrechungen immer wieder in die Kritik geraten ist. Spätestens nach Einführung der Globalen Mindestbesteuerung mit dem Mindeststeuergesetz ist die handelsrechtliche Rechnungslegung nach den International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) auch im Steuerrecht relevant. Hieran anknüpfend wird auf EU-Ebene mit dem Vorschlag vom 12.9.2023 „Business in Europe: Framework for Income Taxation (BEFIT)“ nunmehr diskutiert, IFRS als Grundlage der steuerlichen Gewinnermittlung zu etablieren. Damit würde die national über Jahrzehnte ausgeformte HGB-basierte steuerliche Gewinnermittlung bilanzierender Betriebe von Grund auf neu konzipiert werden müssen.
