Background:
Preference-concordant care is a cornerstone of high-quality medical decision-making, yet the prevalence and correlates of preference-concordant care have not been well-studied in patients receiving dialysis. We surveyed hospitalized people receiving maintenance dialysis to estimate the prevalence and correlates of preference-concordant care among this population.

Methods:
We assessed preference concordance by asking participants (223/380, 59% response rate), “How strongly do you agree or disagree that your current treatment plan meets your preference?” We assessed treatment plan preference by asking if patients preferred a plan that focused on (a) extending life, or (b) relieving pain and discomfort. We assessed shared dialysis decision-making using the 9-item Shared Decision-Making Questionnaire (SDM-Q-9). We examined the differences between those reporting lack of preference-concordant care to those reporting receipt of preference-concordant care using chi-square analyses. We also studied whether patients’ treatment plan preferences or shared dialysis decision-making scores were correlated with their likelihood of receiving preference-concordant care.

Results:
Of the 213 respondents who provided data on preference-concordance, 90 (42.3%) reported that they were not receiving preference-concordant care. Patients who preferred pain and discomfort relief over life extension were less likely {OR 0.15 (95% CI 0.08, 0.28) P =<0.0001} to report receiving preference-concordant care; patients with higher shared decision-making scores were more likely {OR 1.02 [95% CI 1.01, 1.03], P=0.02} to report preference-concordant care.

Conclusions:
A substantial proportion of this sample of hospitalized people receiving maintenance dialysis reported not receiving preference-concordant care. Efforts to improve symptom management and enhance patient engagement in dialysis decision-making may improve the patients’ perceptions of receiving preference-concordant care.

A demanda por novos materiais torna necessário o desenvolvimento de métodos de análise microestrutural para avaliar as propriedades dos materiais. O objetivo deste trabalho é o desenvolvimento de um software que, por intermédio da aquisição e do tratamento de dados, correlaciona a condutividade elétrica e a microestrutura de um material. Para isso, foi construído um software em LabVIEW que recebe tanto as informações geométricas da amostra quanto sobre as medidas de tensão obtidas por um voltímetro de alta precisão, a fim de transformar esses dados em medidas de condutividade elétrica. Para avaliar o software, foi realizada a preparação, análise metalográfica e a medição da condutividade elétrica de duas amostras de aço livre de intersticiais (IF): laminada e tratada termicamente. A partir das micrografias obtidas pelo microscópio óptico e dos valores de condutividade encontrados pelo software, observou-se que a condutividade calculada estava coerente com a microestrutura das amostras.

A Case Study of YouTuber’s use of Twitter for Consumer Engagement
Authors: Zhang Hantian 
Published: May 2023

Twitter as a popular social media site has become a widely used platform for brands to establish consumer engagement (CE), a connection between firms and consumers beyond product consumption and purchase. CE is important for brands to build a long-standing relationship with consumers, leading to positive marketing outcomes. Meanwhile, famous YouTubers, who have obtained large fanbases also use Twitter to connect with their viewers beyond the YouTube platform, as a part of their self-branding process. Existing studies found various strategies brands use to engage consumers on Twitter. Studies on individual users and other celebrities also found that they implement similar factors as brands for engaging their followers, suggesting the application of CE from organisations to individual bases on Twitter. However, while it can be argued that as personal brands, YouTubers also implement similar CE strategies as traditional brands on Twitter to engage their viewers as their consumers, little research has explicitly explored the CE factors implemented by YouTubers on Twitter. Therefore, by adapting the concept of CE, this research explores “How do YouTubers use Twitter for consumer engagement?”. The research implemented a qualitative case study on UK beauty vlogger Zoe Sugg (Zoella)’s Twitter account. In the study, a qualitative content analysis was performed on over 3000 tweets collected from Sugg’s Twitter via API to identify strategies implemented by Sugg that can be seen as CE factors that are also used by brands. The results show that like other brands, Sugg uses various CE factors, including interaction, information offers, topical messages, rewards, and visual elements on Twitter to engage her viewers. The research proposes that CE strategies that are used by traditional brands are also implemented by YouTubers and similar online personalities for engaging audiences on Twitter. The research contributes to understanding the building of YouTube-viewer relationships from the perspective of achieving CE on social media sites beyond YouTube.
Understanding the Motivations for SMEs in South Africa to Adopt Social Media
Authors: Mamorobela Stevens 
Published: May 2023

Since the covid-19 pandemic in 2020, many businesses have relied on social media to stay abreast with the latest news, developments and to predict the future world of business. Many countries around the world instigated lockdown restrictions to curb the spread of the covid-19 virus, and social media platforms were very popular tools used for spreading the news. The proliferation of social media has also increasingly drawn the attention of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in South Africa to improve their efforts of sustaining their businesses. Social media platforms have become popular in the business environments for their ability to increase market reach, transfer knowledge, and sustain the business. While many benefits of social media to enhance business performance have been studied, there are also skeptics on data privacy issues that social medial brings to the business. In the SME sectors in South Africa, social media are adopted due to their cost effectiveness and ease of use. However, little is known about the effect of data privacy issues on SME business performance. The literature of social media adoption indicates that the older generation of SME owners are skeptical about sharing their confidential business insight on social media platforms. This is despite the availability of many other literature studies that report on the increase of social media studies to enhance business sustainability. This study aims to produce knowledge for understanding the key motivations of SMEs to adopting social media despite the existence of data privacy issues on social media. Qualitative interviews were conducted with 13 SME entrepreneurs who were purposively selected based on their knowledge of social media, experience of its application in the business, industries and premises of the SME business in South Africa. The results of the interviews indicated that SMEs are generally aware of the data privacy issues surrounding the use of social media, and the adoption rate differs from younger and older generation of SME entrepreneurs.
Modelling Responsible Digital Security Behaviour for Countering Social Media Manipulation
Authors: Maathuis Clara , Chockalingam Sabarathinam 
Published: May 2023

While the digital environment, and in particular social media, surrounds not only human’s identity and its societal functions projection, e.g., institutional and financial aspects, it also captures both individual and collective thoughts regarding former, ongoing, and future concepts, trends, and incidents placed in the physical world, in the digital environment, or in both which could impact both individual and collective consciousness, behaviour, and attitude towards different dimensions of reality. Accordingly, an initial attempt to define and model responsible digital security behaviour was made and ongoing discourses and AI-based solutions for tackling and containing social manipulation mechanisms exist in this domain. Noteworthily is that dedicated attention to understanding and modelling responsible digital security behaviour in social media for tackling and/or countering social media manipulation, e.g., disinformation and misinformation, still lacks. To this end, this research aims (i) to capture the factors influencing user behaviour towards tackling and/or countering social media manipulation, (ii) to build a Machine Learning model that assesses user’s responsibility in relation to tackling and/or countering social media manipulation mechanisms, and (iii) propose a set of socio-technical recommendations for building resilience to such mechanisms. To accomplish these research objectives, a Design Science Research methodological approach is taken by designing, developing, and evaluating the model proposed through exemplification. Finally, this research aims to enhance digital security awareness and resilience to social media manipulation of users and policy decision-makers to manage and further extend in a responsible and safe way the digital environment.

Cloning the homologue of gene encoding full-length CBF1 transcription factor from Olea europaea L. leaves
Authors: YURTSEVER Munise , ŞEKER Maide , VURAL KORKUT Şenay 
Published: May 2023

One of the most prevalent environmental stresses that affects plants physically and physiologically is
the low temperature. Since low temperature adversely affects plant productivity Researchers
investigated the molecular processes that regulate the effects of cold stress on plants and discovered
many cold responsive genes as well as the control mechanisms that regulate them. CBF/DREB (C repeat
binding factor/dehydration response element binding factor) transcription factors induces the
expression of corresponding genes in plants in response to abiotic stress conditions such as cold,
drought and salinity. These transcription factors contribute to plant resistance to stress by activating
genes in various pathways. Genes encoding CBF transcription factors were first discovered in
Arabidopsis thaliana (L.). Later, Gene homologs were isolated and cloned from a variety of plants. They
belong to the AP2/EREBP protein family. In the present study, the full-length cDNA encoding homologue
of the transcription factor CBF1 was cloned from Olea europaea L. cv. Gemlik leaves. A 748 bp long
cDNA encodes a hypothetical protein of 224 amino acids. BLAST analysis revealed that the CBF1
sequences of Gemlik cultivar and wild olive were nearly identical. A phylogenetic tree was built using
Olea europea L. cv. Gemlik CBF1 sequence.

Approaches to Economic Institutionalism: A Theoretical Review of its Characteristics and Elements of Study
Authors: Logroño María Francisca Cazorla , Gallego-Bono Juan R. 
Published: May 2023

Institutionalism emerges as a scientific construct of economics and sociology, becoming a fundamental element for achieving the development objectives of countries (Portes, 2009). The theoretical review of its approaches, characteristics and elements of study, based on the prominent works of Ronald Coase (1988), Douglas North (1990), Oliver Williamson (1988) and Elinor Ostrom (2009), are carried out with the objective of exposing from another perspective the theories of the Traditional Institutionalist approach (TI), the Economic Neo- Institutionalism (NE) and the New Institutional Economics (NEI). Through the description and exploration, qualitative and transversal, of primary and secondary sources, the convergent and differentiating elements of each approach are described, as well as the importance of their characteristics in the economic system. The study of Institutionalism allows the recognition of market failures, irrationality in the decisions of economic agents, agency problems in the implementation of public policies, the existence of transaction costs, taking as a reference the theories of Economic Institutionalism and its approaches.

Legal Arrangements and Implementation of State Ownership Rights Over Land in Indonesian Constitution
Authors: Erwiningsih Winahyu 
Published: May 2023

The lack of clarity and firmness in Indonesian Basic Agrarian Law (BAL) in explaining the meaning and substance of state ownership rights to land based on the nation's view of life and its implementation based on the concept of a rule of law based on the principle of people's sovereignty is a fundamental and urgent matter. This study used a normative research method of the explanatory-analytical type with a normative, comparative and historical juridical approach, while the data analysis was carried out qualitatively. The results of this study include: first, the original state tenure rights over land imply the demands of community rights and obligations regarding the use of land rights for the welfare of the people. Second, the implementation of the meaning and substance of state tenure rights over land has not been fully reflected in statutory regulations so that state administrators (executives) experience difficulties in carrying out these functions of authority. Third, the weak implementation of regulations is caused by the lack of political will in power to carry out agrarian politics consequently characterized by a single interpretation of state tenure rights over land based on the regime's political interests.

Albanian Children's Literature and Its Missing Literary Criticism
Authors: Kastrati Nexhmije , Duraj Petrit 
Published: May 2023

The purpose of this research is to raise the awareness about authors of children's literature and about the essential needs of such creative profiles, particularly for schoolchildren in primary schooling. Indeed, the appeal of literature cannot endure or develop incessantly within the imaginary framework, without its function. Thus, this literature would not be stalwartly notable from the general literature, but in fact, exactly on account of its function, it is treated and remains as such, as entirely separate, special and inspiring, not only owing to its written nature, but also because of the message it provides, and that must continuously provide. Its function must head towards education, in the general sense of the word, i.e. towards morality, ethics and aesthetics, and thus stay away from moralizing and ideologies, since only by being as such and in this position, it could fulfil its educational and pedagogical mission. Albanian children's literature, though having a late tradition compared to such literatures outside the Albanian-speaking territories, has, nevertheless, had its own dawn of growth and cultural development. This tradition has been followed by generations of authors, with the only purpose so that children could keep up with the times and other historical and cultural developments. For this reason, our literature, no matter how beautiful it may be, no matter how inspiring it may be, is still being challenged, particularly in the new century. The rapid developments of the technology and information is taking its toll, and day by day children's literature seems to be losing its function, and there is an impression that it has been left behind by these advances. With the view to making this ingenuity attractive, literary criticism must work, and through its analytical efforts, it would make it understandable, because not all of the readers (or very few) manage to understand the messages, and analyse the meaning of figurative language of artistic writing, therefore interpretation, and mediation in this matter takes its true role. Literary criticism and its role is irreplaceable, not only as a theory, but also as a science in itself. It would make the literary art more acceptable and necessary in school books, especially with the acceptable psychological and pedagogical scientific suggestions. After all, children's literature itself has a goal, i.e. artistic and ethical education through acceptable literary forms.
