Authors: Waluyo Efendi Agus , Lubis Djuara P. , Sadono Dwi , Saharjo Bambang Haro 
Published: March 2024

Objective: The aim of this research is to analyze the phenomenon of forest and land fire (FLF) and the DNA of participatory environmental communication in FLF’s control.

Theoretical Framework: In order to advance the process of dialogue and collaboration in FLF’s control, this research using The Participatory Environmental Communication (PEC) framework developed by Harris (2021) which consists of three interrelated components: diversity (D), network (N), and agency (A) (DNA)

Method: The research adopts a constructivist paradigm with a case study approach. The informant were selected by a snowball method involving all actors engaged in the communication process of FLF’s control. Data collection in this study employs semi-structured interview techniques and group discussions.

Results and Discussion: The diversity of characteristics and challenges faced by the three villages, Gelebak Dalam, Jejawi, and Deling, highlights the necessity for contextual dialogue and collaboration, respecting local wisdom, and involving community participation. The participatory environmental communication DNA approach reflects its crucial role in FLF’s control in these villages. Gelebak Dalam excels with a favorable DNA, particularly in diversity and network, facilitating smooth dialogue and collaboration processes. Although Jejawi has a limited network, its high diversity and agency remain key drivers for effective dialogue and collaboration. In contrast, Deling exhibits good diversity but faces difficulties in achieving optimal collaboration due to low network and agency.

Research Implications: The implementation of this DNA approach indicates that achieving effective dialogue and collaboration in FLF’s control requires acknowledgment of diversity aspects and the enhancement of networks and agencies at the village level. Strengthening communication networks is necessary to boost active community involvement in forest fire control efforts.

Originality/Value: This study contributes to the environmental communication literature by using participatory environmental communication in the forest dan land fire control in Indonesia

Published: March 2024

Purpose: In Ghana, maize constitutes the primary source of revenue and food for small-scale farmers, and to attain maize self-sufficiency, appropriate production techniques must be employed, coupled with the scaling up of production efficiency to supplement our food output. The objectives of the study are to estimate the technical efficiency and analyze the trend in total factor productivity of maize production.

Method: This study focuses on forty-eight (48) cities in six (6) selected regions of Ghana: Northern, Upper East, Upper West, Central, Eastern, and Volta. Secondary data on maize production was obtained from the Ministry of Food and Agriculture from the 2010/11 to 2020/21 cropping seasons. Environmental variables (amount of rainfall and temperature) were sourced from the Ghana Meteorological Agency (GMA) from 2010/11 to 2020/21.

Results and Conclusion: The results displayed a fairly high level of TE, and environmental factors significantly influence production efficiency. The study revealed that the TE of maize cultivation was 0.752 and 0.853 for the first and third stages, respectively. From the findings, the efficiency scores attained after the adjustments to the input in the third stage of the DEA model were greater than those in the first stage. Also, the results indicated the eastern region had the highest TE scores, showed an increment in productivity, and serves as the finest region for maize cultivation. Overall, the technical performance of maize cultivation had shown an upward trend in productivity, and the eastern region recorded the highest efficiency performance and technological progress.

Implications of the Research: The research highlights the significance of the maize crop to the Ghanaian economy and how environmental factors impact farmers' production efficiency. It also emphasizes the benefits of resource use efficiency and its implied effects on the total factor productivity of maize cultivation. Policy suggestions include sustainable production practices primarily for farmers living in susceptible areas to enhance productivity and improve their food security status.

Originality/Value: The gap discovered in the examined literature was that there exists a substantial deficiency in the usage of the three-stage DEA Malmquist model for analyzing technical efficiency and limited studies on the estimation of the total factor productivity (TFP) changes, specifically focusing on maize farming. This paper adds to the body of the existing literature by utilizing a three-stage DEA model to evaluate the TE of maize production. This is entirely limited both in theory for annual crops and methodologically in the Ghanaian literature on efficiency studies.

Authors: Juditha Christiany , Darmawan Josep J. 
Published: March 2024

One social media that is now very popular platforms is TikTok. Currenly active TikTok users in Indonesia are the second highest after the United States. TikTok servers not only as medium for marketing, branding, and self-existence, but also a medium full of negative content. One of prominent features of TikTok is widely used to respond to viral cases. However, this feature has also facilitated the occurrence of debates lead to conflicts among users. The purpose of this study is to get an overview of the TikTok stitch trend as a negation feature in citizen communication on social media. Netnography is the method used in this research. This research concludes that generally the accounts' self-presentation makes Stitch's image optimal in responding to viral cases. Generally, they negate (deny) viral TikTok videos in the hope that their negation is the most correct. Meanwhile, recipients of the messages created through stitches tend to respond by creating their own stitches, and/or providing comments as a form of feedback. Another finding of viral content, that are considered controversial by netizens, tend to produce hate speech and comments, mutual insults and bullying. Stitch is a communication channel for conveying ideas, opinions, criticism without filters with content that is less controllable and makes it more trending.

Published: March 2024

Objectives:
The objective of this was to compare the effects of the proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) hold-relax technique on pain severity, range of motion (ROM) of the shoulder, shoulder disability, and scapular asymmetry in stroke patients with scapular dyskinesis.

Methods:
The study used a randomized clinical trial design including 46 patients ranging from 40 to 60 years with at least five months of stroke with type-1 scapular dyskinesia. The participants were divided into two groups, taking the upper limb Diagonal 1 (D1) flexion pattern and Diagonal 2 (D2) flexion pattern, respectively, which were allocated by consecutive sampling using the lottery method. We used a visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, goniometry for shoulder ROM, shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) for shoulder disability, and lateral scapular slide test for scapular asymmetry.

Results:
D1 flexion and D2 flexion both improved the ROM in both groups (P < 0.05) and decreased pain and disability, while in-between comparisons did not find a significant difference between the effectiveness of both treatments in terms of pain measured by VAS, ROM, that is, flexion, extension, and abduction (P > 0.05). In terms of external and internal rotation, the D1 flexion pattern of PNF techniques showed more improvement as compared to D2 flexion (P < 0.05). While in terms of SPADI, D2 flexion showed more improvement as compared to D1 flexion (P < 0.05).

Conclusion:
Scapular PNF substantially influences stroke patients’ shoulder discomfort and ROM.
Teaching clinical anatomy to medical students by flipped classroom
Authors: AARTI  , SINGH KAMAL , RATHEE SURESH KANTA 
Published: March 2024

Background
We aimed to introduce the flipped classroom approach for teaching clinical anatomy and to assess its perception and feasibility among medical undergraduate students.

Methods
Our study included 151 MBBS students of the first professional. We took written informed consent after the study was approved by the Ethics Committee. Selected topics of clinical anatomy were taught using the flipped classroom (FCR) method. It involved pre-class, in-class and post-class activities. In pre-class activity, pre-reading material was given to the students 1 week before the class. An assignment was given 2 days before the class in the form of solving multiple- choice questions, drawing well-labelled diagrams, etc. In- class activity included a pre-test followed by a discussion of the topic in the form of problem-based questions in the class on the principle of Think–Pair–Share. Post-class activity included summarization of the topic by students in the form of a group activity followed by a feedback session. Feedback was collected using a pre-validated feedback questionnaire on Google forms. Data collected were analysed using SPSS 21.0 and Microsoft office 2010. The response to close-ended questions was expressed as percentage. Open-ended questions were analysed by grouping of qualitative responses.

Results
We found FCR to be a feasible, interesting and necessary pedagogical tool for medical education. Most students (95%) agreed that FCR is a useful technique for better understanding of clinical anatomy. They learnt better from FCR than other teaching methods and their in-depth understanding of the topic improved with FCR.

Conclusion
FCR is an established teaching–learning tool but it needs to be implemented in undergraduate teaching of clinical anatomy for better understanding of the topics. Didactic lectures do not touch upon clinical correlations in a case-based manner, which can be easily discussed in FCR.

Изучение редких вариантов в гене CFTR является актуальным в эпоху таргетной терапии CFTR-модуляторами. В данном исследовании изучена клиническая картина муковисцидоза, а также функция CFTR-канала у гомозиготного носителя редкого патогенного варианта c.1329_1350del (p.Asp443GlufsX19), относящегося к I классу нарушений в гене CFTR. Получена полная корреляция результатов функциональных тестов с фенотипической картиной муковисцидоза и потовым тестом. Метод определения разности кишечных потенциалов продемонстрировал отсутствие функциональной активности хлорного CFTR канала в ректальном биоптате; при стимулировании форсколином органоиды пациента не ответили набуханием, что свидетельствует о полном нарушении образования функционального белка CFTR. Воздействие на кишечные органоиды всеми зарегистрированными для терапии таргетными препаратами не привело к их набуханию, в отличие от контрольной культуры, гомозиготной по F508del, таким образом, хлорный канал пациента с генотипом p.Asp443GlufsX19/p.Asp443GlufsX19 оказался нечувствителен ни к одному CFTR-модулятору.
The study of rare variants in the CFTR gene is relevant in the era of targeted therapy with CFTR modulators. In this study, we studied the clinical picture of cystic fibrosis, as well as the function of the CFTR channel in a homozygous carrier of a rare pathogenic variant c.1329_1350del (p.Asp443GlufsX19), belonging to class I disorders in the CFTR gene. A complete correlation of the results of functional tests with the phenotypic pattern of CF and data of a sweat test was obtained. The method for determining the difference in intestinal potentials demonstrated the absence of functional activity of the chloride CFTR channel in the rectal biopsy, and when stimulated with forskolin, the patient’s organoids did not swell, which indicates a complete violation of the functional CFTR protein production. Exposure to intestinal organoids by all registered for therapy targeted drugs did not lead to their swelling, unlike the control culture, homozygous for F508del. The chloride channel of a patient with genotype p.Asp443GlufsX19/p.Asp443GlufsX19 turned out to be insensitive to any CFTR modulator.

A ECONOMIA DA POBREZA E AS DESIGUALDADES: COMO JULGAMENTOS E VIESES PODEM APROFUNDAR A DISTÂNCIA ENTRE RICOS E POBRES
Authors: Leão Laudeny Fábio Barbosa 
Published: March 2024

O presente artigo apresenta o tema da economia da pobreza e as desigualdades múltiplas que as sociedades enfrentam, e suas repercussões em termos de exclusão social, principalmente em países pobres. A compreensão das causas das desigualdades é vital para a ampliação da renda e para a promoção da mobilidade social. Apesar de bastante estudado, as áreas que pesquisam as desigualdades ainda apresentam análises parciais do tema, muitas vezes abordando separadamente as questões econômicas das questões de raça e gênero. Nosso propósito, portanto, é ampliar a visão do tema para questões fora do mainstream econômico, como o impacto dos vieses cognitivos e dos julgamentos nas formulações de políticas públicas. A partir de análises de pesquisas e de leituras bibliográficas percebemos que a forma de pensar dos agentes econômicos modela suas ações, com frequência gerando resultados adversos aos inicialmente pretendidos. Concluímos afirmando que as políticas públicas devem ser calibradas para cada caso específico e duradouras no longo prazo, para que realmente possam mudar as estruturas que promovem as desigualdades múltiplas no país.

Published: March 2024

RESUMO - A identificação do controle estrutural é essencial para compreender fatores que moldam a paisagem, especialmente nas bacias hidrográficas, que desempenham um papel fundamental na modelagem da paisagem natural através de suas dinâmicas. O uso de índices morfométricos desempenha um papel crucial na detecção de possíveis controles estruturais. A relação de bifurcação, por exemplo, permite avaliar o impacto de perturbações estruturais na drenagem e pode ser associada a outros índices, como a curva e a integral hipsométrica, que medem o equilíbrio da bacia hidrográfica. Valores entre 0,60 e 0,35 nessa curva indicam relevo senil, ligado a estágios de equilíbrio. Além disso, o índice de assimetria de bacia hidrográfica revela basculamentos associados à migração lateral de canais fluviais. Esses índices foram aplicados à BHRPM e a sub-bacias para identificar possíveis controles estruturais, levantando hipóteses sobre a presença destes controles e estabelecendo relações com o substrato rochoso e a presença de estruturas geológicas.
