The slow initial growth of mangosteen is caused by poor rooting, especially secondary roots and root hairs. Therefore, technology is needed to stimulate root growth so that the absorption of nutrients in the soil becomes effective. This study used mung bean sprout extracts and tomato extracts as natural plant growth regulators (PGRs) combined with the use of biological liquid fertilizers. This research was conducted in the greenhouse of the Horticulture Building, Department of Agronomy and Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Lampung from March 2020 to July 2020. The treatments were arranged in a factorial (3x2) in a randomized block design which was repeated 3 times. The first factor was natural PGR, which consists of: without natural PGR, mung bean sprout extract, and a mixture of sprout and tomato extract. The second factor was biological liquid fertilizer, which consists of control and with biological liquid fertilizer. The homogeneity of variance was tested by the Bartlett test, while the data additivity test was tested by the Tukey test. If the assumptions were met, the data was then analyzed by means of variance. The difference in the mean value was tested with LSD at the 5% level. The results showed that the administration of natural PGRs and biological liquid fertilizer did not show a significant effect on all the variables tested. The growth of most seedlings were upnormal due to the presence of root-attacking insect larvae previosuly present in the growing media. With minor disturbance from insect, the control plants showed better plant height (1.85 cm), number of leaves (3.28 pieces), leaf area (15.21 cm2), primary root length ( 3.77 cm), the number of secondary roots (2 strands), and plant fresh weight (3.55 g) than the treatments.

Grafting of different coffee species (interspecific grafting) aims to take advantage of the superiority of the rootstock and promote the growth and production of the scion. For example, Robusta coffee is grafted with Liberika coffee as rootstock. One of the principles of fertilization is the application of fertilizer at the right time. This study aimed to determine the effect of clones of Robusta/Liberica interspecific grafting and different fertilization times on the growth and yield of Robusta coffee. The research was conducted in a 15-year-old coffee plantation with the rootstock of Liberika coffee of the Red Robinson variety which was grafted to the scion of multiclonal Robusta coffee. Planting distance of coffee was 2.5 m x 2.5 m and shade trees were Gliricidia sepium. This research used a split plot design arranged in a factorial (4x2) with three replications so that there were 24 experimental units. The main plot was the time of fertilization, namely in early April and October and in early May and November. As sub-plots, there were Robusta coffee clones, namely Korolla 1, Korolla 2, Tugu Bungkuk, and Darmani. The results showed that fertilization time, clones, and their interactions did not affect the number of primary branches, primary branch length, number of secondary branches, fruit weight of harvested samples, number of fruit per bunch, fruit weight per bunch, dry seed weight per bunch, and coffee yield per tree. The interaction of coffee clones and fertilization time had a significant effect on the number of pods per branch, the number of harvested samples, dry bean weight of harvested samples, dry bean weight per branch, and coffee yield per hectare. For Darmani coffee clones, delaying fertilization from April and October to May and November reduced coffee yield. Key words : Interspesific grafting, Liberica, Robusta, time of fertilization, yield
The Government as Institutional Entrepreneur in Corporate Governance Reform
Authors: Krenn Mario 
Published: October 2022

Governments around the world have become prolific issuers of soft law regulation in the form of corporate governance codes. However, the strategies that governments pursue to ensure the diffusion of the codes have remained unexplored in the literature. Drawing from institutional and sociopolitical perspectives, I hypothesize that governments pursue a combination of different intervention strategies to bring the corporate governance arrangements of firms in line with the issued code. These strategies focus on the mobilization of material resources, the dissemination of rationales and legitimating accounts for corporate governance change, interventions in social structure and the establishment of new social relations. I test my hypotheses in the context of the issuance of the national corporate governance code in Germany and find general support for my hypotheses.
Is the Strategic FinTech Policy “ZeroPay” Failed?
Authors: Cho June-Suh 
Published: October 2022

ZeroPay was implemented to improve the card fee problem of small businesses, help them manage them, and consequently contribute to a positive economic cycle. However, ZeroPay, which started in 2018, was introduced to reduce fees for small business owners but is now being ignored by small business owners. Also, ZeroPay did not show successful results in bringing new changes to the financial market and citizen participation. In this paper, we discussed how ZeroPay proceeded after 4 years, how the initial issues were resolved, what the critical issues were, and how to resolve them. We also discussed why the “ZeroPay” service has been neglected by small business owners.

Published: October 2022

The Gambia, 'The smiling Coast' of Africa, is a strip of low lying country located between latitudes 13o 00’ and 13o 50’ N and longitudes 16o 50’ and 13o 45’ W, with a total land boundary of 740 km, and dense population of 1,857,181. The two distinct climates are the rainy and dry seasons. The dry season which lasts from October till May is characterized by dry dusty wind; while the wet season lasts from June till early October, with total annual rainfall that varies from the coastline inwards. Based on the rainfall pattern, the three major agroecological zones include Sahelian, Sudan-Sahelian and Sudan-Guinean which favour the cultivation of some cash crops, food crops, and herbal plants. Foods, in the form of liquid or solid, are sources of nutrition and medicine for good health; malnutrition, or poison. Foods and nutrition are essential for maintaining good health and preventing disease. Not only is malnutrition prevalent in The Gambia, but most of the populace also seemed unaware of the content, quality, composition, the nutritive, or medicinal value of the foods consumed. In this review, the chemical, medicinal, and nutritive values of some commonly consumed or traditional foods and drinks and the names of some herbal plants and their uses in The Gambia are reported.

A Prototype Extractor of CO₂ from Exhaust Gases adopting Post-combustion capture process is developed in this study and its performance was evaluated. The system consists of a small petrol engine of 1kw power, an absorber with volume of 0.00054 m³, a balloon that can contain sizeable amount of exhaust gas, a washer of 0.0181m³, a compressor of 1hp, a dryer which consist of two compartment, with internal volume of 0.00093 m³insulated with fibre glass to prevent heat loss. All of these component parts works in a circle, to convert stockpiled exhaust gases from exhaust manifold point source of an electrical power generating set into carbon (iv) oxide (CO2). This system was carefully developed to ensure extraction of pure CO₂ from the waste emission gases. Study was conducted using the developed system to extract suspected CO₂ gaseous substance from exhaust gases. The obtained gaseous substance was assay for chemical analysis test using sodalime solution (CaHNaO2). The result of the test confirmed the extracted gaseous substance as CO₂ gas by changing a colorless sodalime solution to a milk color. It is also found that the quantity of CO₂ gas generated increases with the increment of the quantity of the fuel consumed by the Petrol engine. The produced CO₂ gas can be utilized as commodity in the industrial production of materials and fuels. This work has elucidated one of the means of converting waste emissions (exhaust gases) to wealth and could help to reduce greenhouse effect thus providing a friendly environment for humans’ inhabitants.

Published: October 2022

Background: Hypertension remains a major problem in diabetics, with a strong prevalence, and a high rate of uncontrolled subjects despite the combination of several therapeutic classes.

Aims: To carry out an evaluation of hypertension management in a group of diabetics

Methods: We conducted a retro-cross-sectional study including 200 patients by analyzing the data provided in the medical files and responding to an evaluation grid.

Results: We included 200 patients whose were type 1 diabetics (T1D) in 21.5% of cases and type 2 diabetics (T2D) in 78.5% of cases. The mean age was of 36 ± 10.9 years in the T1D group and 56.4 ± 9.7 years in the T2D group. Hypertension was present in 34.9% of T1D and 56.7% of T2D. The BP was taken only in 61% of patients and in patients with hypertension in 71.7 % and in 65.5% of cases the SBP <130 mmHg and 60.6% the DBP <80 mmHg. Microalbuminuria was found in 30% of T1Ds and 31.7% of T2D. The frequency of consultations was quarterly in 9% of cases, every 4 months in 67% of cases and every 6 months in 24% of cases. The average number of drugs prescribed per day was 2.96 ± 1.7 (1 to 9 drugs). 54.8% of hypertensive patients were on a single class of antihypertensive drugs. 34.8% of them received dual therapy and 7.6% triple therapy. Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) were prescribed in 65.3%. Concerning adherence to treatment: 51% of diabetics know the name of their medication and 77% know its indication.

Conclusion: The hypertensive diabetic is a patient at generally high cardiovascular risk but whose level of risk deserves to be specifically assessed. Management remains the main challenge with the main objective of reducing cerebrovascular morbidity and mortality.
Diagnostic challenges in postoperative intra-abdominal sepsis in critically ill patients: When to reoperate?
Authors: Alzerwi Nasser A N 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
The present paper was done to review common diagnostic techniques used to help surgeons find the most suitable way to diagnose postoperative intra-abdominal sepsis (IAS). The topic was searched on MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases. Collected articles were classified and checked for their quality. Findings of selected research were included in this study and analyzed to find the best diagnostic method for intra-abdominal sepsis. IAS presents severe morbidity and mortality, and its early diagnosis can improve the outcome. Currently, there is no consensus among surgeons on a single diagnostic modality that should be used while deciding reoperation in patients with postoperative IAS. Though it has a high sensitivity for abdominal infections, computed tomography has limited applications due to mobility and time constraints. Diagnostic laparoscopy is a safe process that produces usable images, and can be used at the bedside. Diagnostic peritoneal lavage (DPL) has high sensitivity, and the patients testing positive through DPL can be subjected to exploratory laparotomy, depending on severity. Abdominal Reoperation Predictive Index (ARPI) is the only index reported as an aid for this purpose. Serial intra-abdominal pressure measurement has also emerged as a potential diagnostic tool. A proper selection of diagnostic modality is expected to improve the outcome in IAS, which presents high mortality risk and a limited time frame.
Power Flow Calculation in Smart Distribution Network Based on Power Machine Learning Based on Fractional Differential Equations

Published: October 2022

Abstract
Based on the theory of fractional differential equations, this paper proposes a simple recursive, iterative scheme for power flow calculation in pure radial networks. The paper determines the network hierarchy formed by the ADT stack through breadth theory. This helps us define the branch sequence of the forward and backward generation in the power flow calculation of the smart distribution network. We ensure that the Jacobian matrix remains unchanged in the smart distribution grid power flow calculation. The interval model is more practical and computationally simpler than the point model. The research results show that the power flow calculation method is efficient based on the fractional differential equation.

Growth, Development and Yield of Golden Currant (Ribes Aureum Pursh.) Depending on Cultivation System
Authors: Kampuss Kaspars , Šarkovska Daina 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
Although golden currant has been grown in Latvia for several decades, mainly as ornamental plant, there is little experience on the most suitable cultivation systems for berry production. Two cultivars of golden currant — ‘Laila’ and ‘Uzbekistanskaya Krupnoplodnaya’, were planted in 2017 in two cultivation systems — vertical trellis and shrub form and assessed in the first two seasons with harvest. In addition, plots with and without organic mulch were established in the shrub system. The aim of the study was to investigate the growth, development and yield of golden currant depending on the cultivation system. All plants bloomed abundantly and practically at the same time in both years, while no significant differences were found between cultivation systems and cultivars. The annual growth of shoots in 2020 was significantly affected by the cultivation system — on average 0.66 m in the trellis system, 0.41 m in the shrub system in mulched plots, and 0.43 m in unmulched plots. Cultivar ‘Laila’ tended to produce longer shoots (average 0.51 m) than the ‘Uzbekistanskaya Krupnoplodnaya’ (average 0.47 m). The yield was low because of poor fruit set and did not significantly differ between cultivar and cultivation systems, though cultivar ‘Laila’ and shrub systems still had higher yields.
