Judul: Policy model for sustainable infrastructure development to support the development of agropolitan region (case study Merapi-Merbabu Agropolitan Region)
Abstrak: Friedmann & Douglass (1975): Agropolitan as development activities which were concentrated in rural areas where urbanism characteristics were introduced and inhabited by 50.000-150.000 of people. Agropolitan was able to integrated agricultural sector development into regional development approached model. It is regarded as the most suitable development concept for rural areas, especially the “resource rural-base” of it that robust to some economic crisis. Merapi-Merbabu Agropolitan Region (MMAR) is one of agropolitan regions developed in Indonesia. The development aspects in MMAR are human resources, natural resources, land use, farming, settlement, infrastructure, technology, capital, and institution. This research aims to analyze the performance of MMAR, to investigate the degree of MMAR self-reliant, to design development model for sustainable infrastructure of MMAR, and to establish the direction of infrastructure development policy and scenario for MMAR. The employing performance of MMAR was evaluated by several analysis, including situational analysis, spatial analysis, bayes analysis, location quotient analysis, R/C ratio, added value, BCG, compounding factors analysis, and interpretative structural modeling (ISM). The analysis of self-reliant degree was investigated by multidimensional scaling (MDS) analysis. Development model for sustainable infrastructure was designed by dynamic system analysis method, design criteria analysis, and financial analysis. The direction of infrastructure development policy and scenario for MMAR was established by Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and system dynamics analysis method. The result of the research shows the increasing performance of MMAR in the aspect of human resources, natural resources and environment, farmer income, technology, settlement and infrastructure after it was facilitated. The self-reliant degree of MMAR shows good indication by composite index value of 63.31% which is categorized as agropolitan region, although it is not self-reliant yet. Priority of infrastructure development policy is supporting agro-industry investigation infrastructure by development scenario through alternative: pessimistic, moderate and optimistic scenario.

Judul: Model Kebijakan Pembangunan Infrastruktur Berkelanjutan (Studi Kasus: Kota Bandarlampung)
Abstrak: Infrastructure development does not only affect the economic aspect, but also social and environmental, those are the main dimensions of sustainable development. Many aspects and actors involved in infrastructure development requires a comprehensive and integrated policy towards sustainability. Therefore, it is necessary to formulate an infrastructure development policy that considers various dimensions of sustainable development. The main objective of this research is to formulate policy of sustainable infrastructure development, with specific objectives are: firstly, to measure the level of sustainability of the city's infrastructure; secondly, to formulate the indicators that influence the sustainability of city infrastructure development and thirdly, to design a policy model of sustainable urban infrastructure with dynamic system. This research was conducted in Bandarlampung City. The scope of research is the urban infrastructure which as a basic network infrastructure that influence urban development, namely: transportation, water system (drinking water, storm water, waste water), green open space system and solid waste system. The key indicators of this study were obtained from the assessment of stakeholders, public opinion and assessment of the existing infrastructure planning documents. This study use a comprehensive modeling, namely the Multi Dimensional Scaling (MDS) with Rapid Appraisal of Infrastructure (Rapinfra) to measure the level of sustainability of urban infrastructure development and search key indicators, and it uses of Analytic Network Process (ANP) to determine the effect indicators of sustainable infrastructure development. The findings of the MDS analysis showed that the status of Bandarlampung City infrastructure sustainability is less sustainable with the index value of 38.05 %. ANP analysis produces 8 main indicators of the most influential in the development of sustainable infrastructure consist of: air quality, growth of built up area, community participation, citizen behavior, local economic growth, water availability, infrastructure planning and infrastructure budgets. The dynamic model offered 4 scenarios of sustainable urban infrastructure policy model. The best scenario was implemented into 3 policies consist of: the integrated infrastructure management, the population control, and the local economy development. The results of this study are expected to be useful for stakeholders, especially the governments as a reference in the development of sustainable urban infrastructure development policy.

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.
