Judul: Socio-Ecological System of Mangrove Ecotourism in Pari Island, Seribu Island, DKI Jakarta
Abstrak: Ekosistem mangrove adalah ekosistem pesisir yang dimanfaatkan sebagai olahan pangan, perikanan, dan ekowisata. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi komponen sistem sosial ekologi, mendeskripsikan pemanfaatan serta faktor-faktor pendukung pengelolaan mangrove Pulau Pari, Kepulauan Seribu. Pengumpulan data diperoleh dengan pengukuran kerapatan mangrove dan kualitas air pada 3 stasiun. Wawancara dilakukan kepada masyarakat, wisatawan, dan pengelola wisata. Analisis data terdiri dari analisis kerapatan mangrove, konektivitas sistem sosial ekologi, analisis pemangku kepentingan, dan analisis strategi pengelolaan mangrove. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa komposisi mangrove di Pulau Pari tergolong dalam kategori sedang dengan spesies yang mendominasi adalah Rhizophora stylosa. Konektivitas yang terjadi pada sistem sosial-ekologi ekowisata mangrove menunjukkan bahwa peran resources governance masih minim. Rekomendasi pengelolaan yang penting untuk dilakukan yaitu kerjasama pemerintah dengan masyarakat pulau sebagai aktor yang turut serta mengelola ekosistem., Mangrove ecosystems are coastal ecosystems that are utilized as processed food, fisheries, and ecotourism. The purpose of this study was to identify the components of the social ecological system, describe the utilization and supporting factors of mangrove management on Pari Island, Kepulauan Seribu. Data collection was obtained by measuring mangrove density and water quality at 3 stations. Interviews were conducted with the community, tourists, and tour managers. Data analysis consists of mangrove density analysis, social ecological system connectivity, stakeholder analysis, and mangrove management strategy analysis. The results showed that the composition of mangroves on Pari Island was classified as moderate with the dominating species being Rhizophora stylosa. The connectivity that occurs in the social-ecological system of mangrove ecotourism shows that the role of resource governance is still minimal. Management recommendations that are important to do are government cooperation with the island community as actors who participate in managing the ecosystem.

Judul: Studi Kasus Liver Neoplasia pada Anjing Shih Tzu
Abstrak: Liver neoplasia is the excessive and uncontrolled replication of hepatocytes that forms nodules visible in ultrasonography. The purpose of this study is to study and discuss the characteristic, diagnosis and treatment of liver neoplasm through the interpretation of ultrasonography and hematology in a Shih Tzu dog. Ultrasonography is conducted with a Chison Q8 ultrasound machine with a 5 to 7 MHz frequency convex probe on lateral recumbency. The blood cells, liver enzymes and nodules sizes were the main parameters in this study. The results in the period of three years from 2021 to 2023 were interpreted and supported with secondary data sources. The Shih Tzu dog is 14 years old in the year 2023 with a body weight of 5.21kg. No obvious clinical signs were observed during previous examinations. However, lethargy, vomiting and anorexia were recorded in its latest examination. Thrombocytosis, granulocytosis, high liver enzymes and hypoglycemia, which are some of the neoplastic clinical manifestations were also presented by this patient. Besides, liver neoplasm, spleen neoplasm and biliary sludge were the sonogram findings of this patient. The liver and spleen neoplasm was observed stable, while the biliary sludge volume fluctuated. The treatment strategy recorded is Ondansetron, Samylin®, Ornipural and Ursodeoxycholic acid.
