Authors: Purwanti Ika , Lailyningsih Dwi Reni Nisvul , Suyanto Umar Yeni 
Published: December 2022

Objective: This study examines the influence of digital marketing capability on Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) performance. Environmental dynamism was the moderator in this relationship.
Design/Methods/Approach: This study design was a quantitative approach. The research was conducted in Lamongan Regency. The research populations are managers or owners of MSMEs in the area. Using non-probability and purposive sampling techniques, this study reports the responses of 138 respondents from small and medium enterprises in Lamongan. Data were primarily gathered through self-reported online questionnaires. Partial Least Square (PLS) was then used to test the hypothesized relationships.
Findings: The results show a positive effect of digital marketing capability on MSMEs performance and that environmental dynamism strengthens the relationship between digital marketing capability and MSMEs performance.
Originality: Our study highlights the importance of focusing on digital marketing capability as a superior business strategy in responding to changes in consumer behavior. Empirical research on digital marketing capabilities in small-scale companies from the context of developing countries has not received serious attention (Chinakidzwa & Phiri, 2020b). To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to link digital marketing capabilities to the MSMEs performance in Lamongan. Almost no previous research has examined environmental dynamism as a moderating role, especially in developing countries.
Practical/Policy Implication: the owners or managers must focus on establishing and implementing the ability to apply digital marketing effectively. Digital marketing capability becomes one of the Company's strategic sources in creating competitive advantages, contributing to better business performance. An important practical implication of this research is that when MSMEs can adapt and transform digitally, they should concentrate on increasing digital marketing capability through activities such as providing product information on digital platforms, providing online services for customer needs, and building relations and communication with online consumers. Careful consideration of a firm's digital marketing capability is needed to improve business performance.

Amaç
24. hafta sonrası doğan gebeliklerde intrauterin fetal ölüm vakalarının demografik verileri, perinatal sonuçları değerlendirmek, perinatal mortalite ile ilgili risk faktörlerini araştırmak ve literatür eşliğinde katkıda bulunan etyolojik faktörleri incelemek.
Gereç-Yöntemler
2019 Ocak -2022 Ocak arası üçüncü basamak eğitim araştırma hastanesinde doğum yapan intrauterine ani bebek ölüm sendromu ile gelen (24 ila 43 hafta) bebeklerin retrospektif bir kohort analizinin yapılması planlandı. Hastane veri tabanı ve patolojik, klinik ve biyokimyasal veriler tüm vakalar için gözden geçirildi. Hastaların demografik verileri, gebelik haftası, yenidoğan ağırlık ve cinsiyetleri, doğum şekilleri, fetal anomali varlığı, gebelikteki izlem sayısı, bir önceki gebeliği arasındaki süre değerlendirildi. İntrauterin ölüm nedenleri belirli olanlar ve açıklanamayan intrauterin ölüm olarak gruplandırıldı. Kategorik veriler Fisher'in kesin testi kullanılarak analiz edildi ve %5 düzeyi anlamlı kabul edildi.
Bulgular
2019-2022 Ocak aralığında toplamda 4962 doğum hastanemizde oldu. Bu dönemde intrauterine ani bebek ölümü (AİÖS) ile gelen ve doğum yapan 35 hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi. Bu hastalardan intrauterin fetal ölüm insidansı 1000 gebelikte 7.05'tir. En fazla ölü doğum 14 vaka ile 2020 yılında oldu. Ölü doğumlar vakaların % 54.2’sinde nedeni saptanamamış olup, ikinci sıklıkta plasental/kord faktörler (%22.8), üçüncü sıklıkta Mekonyum aspirasyon sendromu (MAS) % 14.2 'sinden sorumluydu. Annelerin yaş, gebelik haftası, fetüs ağırlığı (kg) sırasıyla 29.49, 32.69 ve 1897.03 olarak bulundu. Term ölü doğumların yaklaşık %91'i geç kayıt yaptıran veya doğum öncesi bakımı olmayan takipsiz gebelerdi. Açıklanamayan ölü doğumların %74.3’ü TC vatandaşı, % 25.7’si göçmenlerden (Suriye, Irak ve Arap) oluşturmakta idi. Ölü bebeklerin %57.1’i kız bebek olmakla beraber ve hastaların %54.3’ü sezaryen ile doğum yapmıştı. Annenin bir önceki gebeliği ile ölen bebek arasındaki süre ortalaması 74.45 (ay) gebelikteki izlem sayısı ortalaması 3.60 olarak bulundu. Amnion sıvısında mekonyum mevcut olan fetüslerin çoğu mekonyum aspirasyon sendromundan kaybedildi.
Sonuç
Çalışmamızda ölü doğumların en sık nedeni açıklanamayan AİÖS’idi. Yüksek riskli gebeliklerin erken tanısı ve önlemlerin erken alınması, AİÖS ile gebelik süreci arasındaki bağlantının belirlenmesi, intrauterin ölüm için risk altındaki gebeleri tahmin etmemize ve fetus ve anne açısından gerekli önlemlerin alınmasını sağlayabilir. Açıklanamayan ölü doğum insidansını en aza indirmek için özellikle term ölü doğum vakalarında daha çok araştırmaya ihtiyaç vardır.
Fiqih of Indonesian Tourism (FIT) as A Shari'a Tourism Policy System
Authors: Fikri Muhammad 
Published: December 2022

Shari'a tourism is a trend in Indonesia and the international world because currently Muslim and non-Muslim countries are competing to offer the concept of shari'a tourism. The shari'a tourism discourse still attracts controversy amid society in terms of its legal aspects, concept, and application. The term shari'a tourism is also still being debated because people cannot distinguish between conventional tourism and shari'a tourism and there are differences in narratives such as halal tourism and religious tourism. In addition, the development of shari'a tourism policies in Indonesia also has governance problems. This happens because there is no strong ontological, epistemological, and axiological foundation based on Pancasila values, culture, and local wisdom. The problem that will be answered in this article is how is the Fiqh of Indonesian Tourism (FIT) used as a policy system and strategy for developing shari’a tourism. This research is a literature review using a qualitative method that is descriptive-analytic, through Habermas' critical theory approach. This critical theory paradigm is used as a way of looking at and critiquing previous thoughts such as conventional tourism and shari'a tourism. The findings of this study are the Fiqh of Indonesian Tourism (FIT) which is constructed based on Pancasila values and has an ontological, epistemological, and axiological bases, as well as the results of ijtihad through the maslahah mursalah approach as the basis for legal istinbath, 'urf as a study of law and Islamic legal (fiqhiyyah) rules as a reinforcement of the law. The Fiqh of Indonesian Tourism (FIT) is offered as a consideration in the formulation of government policies and praxis for tourist actors without having to be contaminated by non-Muslim tourists, but Muslim and non-Muslim tourists remain in harmony in carrying out tourism activities and maintaining the existence of local culture and wisdom based on Pancasila values. The Fiqh of Indonesian Tourism (FIT) is also a way of traveling without having to be trapped by the symbol of shari'a tourism, in which tourists, both Muslim and non-Muslim, can still enjoy travel and tourism amenities according to their respective beliefs.

<p> </p><table class="data" width="100%"><tbody><tr valign="top"><td class="value"><p>Mesoporous carbons with different textural properties were prepared with gelatin by hard templating process. The effect silica removal condition (time and acid concentration) on the nanocomposite properties was studied during synthesis process. 1, 6, and 24 h silica removal times and 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% HF concentraton were chosen. Textural properties and microstructure of the nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDAX), and N2 adsorption– desorption. Results showed that removal silica time process led to mesoporous nucleation and growth on the surface of mesoporous carbon. At decreasing of removal silica time and HF concentration the surface area and total pore volume increased from 410 to 760 m2/g and 0.14–0.99 cm3/g with almost same of the average pore diameter considerably at 4.1 nm. Furthermore, it was observed more homogeneous pore distribution with decreasing the silica removal time dan HF consentration. In conclusion, the silica removal time and acid concentration play an important role on textural properties of mesoporous carbon which could have a major effect on adsorption properties of sulfuric compound in the fuel.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

Published: December 2022

Abstract
Purpose: Analysis of illicit drugs, medicines and pathogens in wastewater is a powerful tool for epidemiological studies to monitor public health trends. The aims of this study were to (i) assess spatial and temporal trends of population-normalized mass loads of illicit drugs and nicotine in raw wastewater in the time of regulations against SARS-CoV-2 infections (2020–21); (ii) find substances that are feasible markers for characterizing the occurrence of selected drugs in wastewater.
Methods: Raw sewage 24-hour composite samples were collected in catchment areas of 15 wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in urban, small-town and rural areas in Germany during different lockdown phases from April 2020 to December 2021. Parent substances (amphetamine, methamphetamine, MDMA, carbamazepine, gabapentin and metoprolol) and the metabolites of cocaine (benzoylecgonine) and nicotine (cotinine) were measured.
Results: The daily discharge of WWTP influents were used to calculate the daily load (mg/day) normalized by population equivalents (PE) in drained catchment areas (in mg/1,000 persons/day). An influence of the regulations to reduce SARS-CoV-2 infections such as contact bans and border closures on drug consumption has been proven in some cases and refuted in several. In addition, metoprolol and cotinine were found to be suitable as marker substances for the characterization of wastewater. A change in drug use was visible at the beginning of the Corona crisis. There after from mid-2020, no obvious effect was detected with regard to the regulations against SARS-CoV-2 infections on concentration of drugs in wastewater.
Conclusions: Wastewater-based epidemiology is suitable for showing changes in drug use during the COVID-19 lockdown.

Published: December 2022

Abstract
Purpose:
About 12,000 people are diagnosed with lung cancer (LC)each year in Argentina, and the diagnosis has a significant impact on the whole family. The objective of this study was to characterize the health-related Quality of life (HRQoL) and the economic impact in patients with LC and in their households.
Methods:
We undertook an observational cross-sectional study. Outcomes included the EuroQol EQ-5D-3L (health-related Quality of life), COST (financial toxicity), WPAI-GH (productivity loss), and out-of-pocket expenses in adults diagnosed with LC at two referral public health care centers In Argentina.
Results:
We included 101 consecutive patients (mean age 67.5 years; 55.4% men; 57.4% with advanced disease -stage III/IV-). The mean EQ-VAS was 68.8 (SD:18.3), with 82.2% describing fair or poor health. The most affected dimensions were anxiety/depression, pain, and activities of daily living. Patients reported an average 59% decrease in their ability to perform regular daily activities as measured by WPAI-GH. Around 54.5% decreased income due to the disease, with 19.8% of patients reporting losing their jobs. The economic productivity loss was estimated at USD 2,465 person/year.
About 70.3% of patients reported some degree of financial toxicity. The average out-of-pocket (OOP) expenditure was USD 100.38 person/month and represented 18.5% of household income, and the catastrophic expenditure was present in 37.1% of households. All outcomes were worse in patients with advanced disease.
Conclusions
Patients with NSCLCtreated in public hospitals in Argentina have significant health-related quality of life and economic impact, worsening in patients with advanced disease.

Published: December 2022

Abstract
Background
Recent studies detected increased spinal cord, and CSF dynamics at the cervical spine in different diseases: spontaneous intracranial hypotension, normal pressure hydrocephalus, degenerative cervical myelopathy.
Objective
To explore the physiological range, and impact of clinical and anatomical parameters.
Method
Prospective study, 70 healthy volunteers. MRI cervical spine: (1) 3D T2-weighted MRI, (2) phase-contrast MRI; dynamic parameters per heartbeat: peak-to-peak amplitude (mm/s, velocity range), total displacement (mm). Spinal canal narrowing, age, height, BMI, sex, blood pressure were assessed.
Results
Dynamics increased across the spine (e.g., peak-to-peak amplitude C2/C3-C5/6 - spinal cord: 6.0 ± 2.0 mm/s; 7.1 ± 2.9; mm/s, CSF 45 ± 11 mm/s, 73 ± 25 mm/s; p < 0.001 each). Physiological spinal canal narrowing caused higher dynamics (e.g., peak-to-peak amplitude C5/C6 spinal cord: B = + 1.1 mm/s, p = 0.001; CSF: B = + 16.4 mm/s, p < 0.001). +10 years, and + 10 mmHg diastolic blood pressure were associated with lower dynamics (e.g., peak-to-peak amplitude C2/C3 spinal cord: B=-0.4mm/s, p = 0.010, B=-0.7 mm/s, p = 0.030; CSF: B=-3.1 mm/s, p < 0.001, B=-2.6 mm/s, p = 0.048, respectively). Male sex indicated higher dynamics (e.g., total displacement C2/C3 spinal cord B = + 0.16 mm, p = 0.004; CSF B = + 2.2 mm, p = 0.007).
Discussion
We propose to stratify data for age and sex, and to correct for diastolic blood pressure and segmental narrowing in further clinical trials.
WITHDRAWN: The Relationship between Transformational Leadership and Service Quality
Authors: Agarwala Tanuja , Alwan Mohammed 
Published: December 2022

Abstract

This paper investigates the relationship between transformational leadership and service quality in UAE hospitals. The paper first determined the level of satisfaction of patients with the service quality they received. The paper also analyzed how hospital employees perceived the dimensions of transformational and transactional leadership of their leaders. Finally, the relationship between the dimensions of service quality and those of transformational and transactional leadership was investigated. Two questionnaires were administered. The first questionnaire addressed service quality using an adapted SERVQUAL. The second one addressed transformational and transactional leadership using the multi-level leadership questionnaire. The first questionnaire was distributed to patients of six major UAE hospitals while the second one was distributed to employees of the same hospitals. Data were collected and analyzed using SPSS. The paper found that UAE patients were generally satisfied with the service quality rendered by their hospitals. It however found that hospital employees had a low rating of their leaders in terms of the transformational leadership and contingent reward. Finally, service quality was found to be positively related to all dimension of transformational leadership and the transactional leadership dimension of contingent reward. The two dimensions of active exception and passive avoidant leadership were negatively related to service quality. This paper bridged an important gap in the literature by addressing the relationship between service quality and transformational leadership. It provided important guidelines for managers on the dimensions of leadership that needed to be enhanced in order to improve service quality.
Cation-induced changes in the inner- and outer-sphere mechanisms of electrocatalytic CO2 reduction

Published: December 2022

Abstract

The electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) is an attractive approach to produce fuels and chemicals through CO2 recycling and renewable energy. While it is well-known that metal cations greatly affect the CO2RR activity and selectivity, the underlying mechanism remains debated. Herein, we study cation effects on the CO2RR kinetics and thermodynamics over Au by simulating both outer-sphere electron transfer (OS-ET) and inner-sphere electron transfer (IS-ET) pathways during the first CO2 reduction step via advanced constrained density functional theory molecular dynamics (cDFT-MD) simulations and DFT-MD with slow-growth sampling (SG-DFT-MD) technique, respectively. Our computational analysis shows that without any cations only the OS-ET is feasible with a barrier of 1.21 eV. In the presence of K+, OS-ET shows a very high barrier of 2.93 eV and is prohibited by cations. In stark contrast, cations promote the CO2 activation through IS-ET and the barrier for generating adsorbed CO2δ−, the key CO2RR intermediate, is only 0.61 eV. Without cations, CO2-to- CO2δ−(ads) conversion cannot proceed. We also find that the cation effects arise from the short-range Coulomb, ionic-like interactions between cations and reaction intermediates rather than the long-range electrostatic interactions. Overall, our results disclose that cations modulate the inner- and outer-sphere pathways of CO2RR at Au-water interfaces through short-range interactions. These findings provide substantial new insights on the cation specificity in the initial CO2RR steps.
Investigation of innovative trend approaches (ITA with significance test and IPTA) comparing to the classical trend method of monthly and annual hydrometeorological variables: a case study of Ankara region, Turkey
Authors: Esit Musa 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThe difficulty of monitoring hydrometeorological trends remains relevant because of the importance of climate change. In this study, innovative polygon trend analysis (IPTA), new graphical methods, have recently been presented, Mann-Kendall and innovative trend analysis (ITA) with significance tests are employed at monthly and annual hydrometeorological data for Ankara province in Turkey. Finally, sequential Mann-Kendall (SQ-MK), CUSUM, and standard normal homogeneity test (SNHT) are applied to detect any abrupt changes in annual time series. The results indicate that ITA with significance test, IPTA, and MK capture precipitation trends in 83, 94, and 0.2% of all months (3 stations × 12 months), temperature trends in 86, 75, and 22% of all months, relative humidity trends in 80, 80, and 30% of all months, and evapotranspiration series in 91, 80, and 47% of all months. These findings suggest that the ITA with significance test and IPTA are more sensitive than the MK test, with the precipitation series being the most sensitive and the evapotranspiration series being the least sensitive. SQ-MK, CUSUM, and SNHT tests on station 17664 were successful in detecting a change in annual evapotranspiration in 2005. The annual total evaporation series have been rising since 2005, according to the SQ-MK test.

Published: December 2022

Abstract
This study investigated the sources and microbiological quality of domestic water used by rural communities of Speightstown, Barbados; Carriacou, Grenada; and Nariva, Trinidad. The primary water source was harvested rainwater in Carriacou, and the public water supply for Nariva and Speightstown. Secondary water supplies of the communities came from untreated sources including rainwater, wells, boreholes and springs. E. coli was detected at higher frequencies in water from Carriacou (41.3%) and Nariva (47.4%) than Speightstown (3.6%). Generally, more untreated samples of rainwater (44.6%) and surface/ground water (58.3%) were E. coli positive than treated water obtained from the public supply (9.9%). These findings demonstrate the increased risk to residents in rural communities of the Caribbean who utilize untreated rainwater and environmental sources such as springs and wells. These results demonstrate the usefulness of traditional methods such as the compartment bag test in determining the microbiological quality of domestic water in resource-challenged rural communities of the Caribbean.
Estimation of the daily flow in river basins using the data-driven model and traditional approaches: an application in the Hieu river basin, Vietnam
Authors: Pham Van Chien , Le Hien 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
This paper presents the long short-term memory (LSTM), rating curve (RC), and rainfall–runoff model that can be used for estimating the daily flow at the outlet of river basins. The Hieu river basin in Vietnam is selected as an example for demonstrating the ability of multiple approaches. Hydro-meteorological data at the Quy Chau station are collected over a long period from 1/1/1991 to 31/12/2020. Multiple approaches mentioned above are implemented and used for calculating the daily flow in the studied river basin. The coefficients and modeling parameters in each approach are then carefully determined based on five statistical error indexes. The results revealed that the RC using either one or two segments and the LSTM model using water elevation as input data represented the observed daily flow very well, with the values of dimensional errors (i.e. mean error, mean absolute error and root mean square error) equal only to about of 1% of the observed magnitude of the flow in the studied river basin, while Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency and correlation coefficients are greater than 0.95. Impacts of different types of input datasets on estimated values of the daily flow are also presented when the LSTM model is applied.

Abstract
The preparation, modification and application of green polymers such as poly-lactic acid (PLA), chitosan (CS), and cellulose acetate (CA) for oily wastewater treatment is summed up in this review. Due to the low environmental pollution, good chemical resistivity, high hydrophobicity, and good capacity for water-oil emulsion separation of the presented polymers, it then highlights the various membrane production methods and their role in producing effective membranes, with a focus on recent advances in improving membrane properties through the addition of various Nano materials. As a result, the hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties that are critical in the oil separation mechanism are highlighted. Finally, it looks at the predictions and challenges in oil/water separation and recovery. These ideas are discussed with a focus on modern production methods and oil separation proficiency.
