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.

Abstrak: Infrastrocture plays an important role in economic developmenJ, especially in developing COWltry such as Indonesia. Nevertheless, the development oj infrastructure Jor sustainable urban and regional development is still constrained by socio economic and environmental condition as well as oj lack oj integrated development modeL This dissertation attempts 10 develop policy model oj integrated infrastructure development toward the creation oj urban sustainability. The analysis was carried out using both quantitative and qualitative assessments. A FLAG approach which indicates the degree oj sustainability and linkages analysis between dimensions oj sustainability was used, where system dynamic approach (VENSlM) was used to determine the time path and behavior oj socioeconomic- environmental variables in relation with infrastructure development and-Multi Development Scaling with statistical method Jor rapid appraisal oj sustainabi!ity (MDSlSTFRA) was also needed to measure the integration oj infrastructure developmenJ and sustainability. Using the cluster city oj Kedungsepur (Kendal, Demak., Ungaran, Semarang and Purwodadi) as a case study, the result most likely predicted thtit this area is Jacing a critical environmental condition. The FlagIDASHBOARD results indicate that most oj these cities are wu:ler critical condition in terms oj sustainability. While the system dynamic (VENS/M) indicated that there is tremendous pressure oj .socioEconomic- Environmental variables in these cities. The resuh from MDSISTRF A indicated that integrated urban developmenJ and urban sustainability oj Kedungsepur are still WIder performance (below average). Therefore, it is important to develop an integrated policy model to promote integration oj urban infrastructure in this area and other cities in Indonesia. A policy model of urban Infrastructure is needed to adopt the way to enhance the community in heaving symmetric perception oj the urban problems and chollenges in order to create more participative decision making process in urban infrastructure development planning. The role of universities and research institutes are becoming more importance in handling the knowledge 11U111i1gement and as leverage Jactor in educating the comnninity 's perception. The Infrastructure deVelopment priority in this urban area which is so Jar more concentrated in supporting the improvement oj socio-economic growth need to be Jocused to the improvement· oj environmental condition as reflected in the local goverment's budget. The leverage Jactors oj integrated policy model as mentioned should Ix! considered in the strocture oj policy model of urban infrastructure development.

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.
