Judul: Pengaruh Degradasi Ekosistem Mangrove Terhadap Kehidupan Sosial Ekonomi Masyarakat Pesisir Timur Lampung
Abstrak: Pesatnya perkembangan budidaya tambak udang mulai tahun 1990 an di pesisir timur Lampung, telah menghilangkan hampir seluruh luasan kawasan mangrove disepanjang garis pantai 51,7 Km kabupaten Lampung Tengah dan kabupaten Lampung Selatan. Hilangnya vegetasi mangrove membawa akibat serius pada kelimpahan dan jenis biota perairan laut yang mempunyai nilai ekonomi tinggi seperti udang dan ikan-ikan demersal. Hilangnya pasokan detritus membawa pengaruh yang besar pada jaring- jaring pangan (food web) di ekosistem wilayah pesisir, termasuk dalam hal ini unsur biota laut yang bernilai ekonomi tinggi. Perubahan tersebut dapat dipastikan membawa pengaruh pula pada masyarakat yang kehidupannya tergantung pada dan ditopang oleh ekosistem wilayah pesisir wilayah pesisir. Perubahan kelimpahan biota laut tersebut akan mempengaruhi tipe alat tangkap utama yang dioperasionalkan nelayan Serta intensitas penangkapan pada musim barat tersebut. Perubahan tipe alat tangkap utama adalah merupakan bentuk adaptasi teknologi yang dilakukan masyarakat nelayan pesisir timur Lampung terhadap perubahan dingkungan perairan pesisir tersebut. Disisi lain terjadinya degradasi kosistem mangrove dan kesesuaian lingkungan fisik pada budidaya tambak udang akan berpengaruh pada kesempatan kerja dan kesempatan berusaha yang tercipta serta proses-proses sosial yang menyertainya....dst

Judul: Kajian Ekopnomi dan Ekologi Pemanfaatan Ekosistem  Mangrove Pesisir Tongke-Tongke Kabupaten Sinjai Provinsi Sulawesi Selatan
Abstrak: The ecosystem of mangrove forest at the coastal area of Tongke-Tongke, Sinjai Regency, South Sulawesi Provence, which is the result of the community’s self effort, is feared to face degradation as a result of the demand of local community for livehold, there for this research was intended to a) determine the economic value of the mangrove ecosystem at Tongke-tongke, b) analyze the suitability of the mangrove area particularly for fish pond, and c) determine the socio-economic condition of the local community. Te area suitability for fish pond was determined on the basis of the water quality, soil quality and areasupporting resources by analysis of Geografic Information System (GIS) and factorial discriminant analysis. The data of socio-economy was obtained by interviews of quistionnaires with 84 respondents. To examine the effect of socioeconomic factors, a multivariate analysis of the principal component (PCA) and linear multiple regression analysis were employed. The result of the research showed that the area was highly suitable for fish and shrimp ponds, and scenario 1 (natural condition of mangrove) was the most profitable alternative management. Result of economic benefit analysis on mangrove determine that the highest proportion for total economic value of mangrove ecosystem was indirect benefit with value Rp. 4.434.816.711,00/year or 96,67 %, furthermore the existence benefit was Rp.101.478.371,00/year or 2,21 % and the indirect benefit was Rp.46.643.904,00/year or 1,02 %, while choice benefit value was Rp.4.434.450,00 /year or only 0,10 % from total benefit value. Individuals with a big number of family numbers tended to have a big number of workers, high income and expenses, too. The family income is affected by the number of family number, independent ratio, and type of jobs; where expense is influenced by the umber of family member and independent ratio.

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.
