Se realizó una investigación con el propósito de determinar el efecto de la densidad de siembra y la fertilización fosfatada y potásica, sobre el rendimiento y calidad de semilla de alfalfa, así como también, evaluar el comportamiento de los componentes del rendimiento en la variedad INIA-76. Para el factor densidad de siembra, se manejaron los niveles 1, 3, 5 y 7 kg de semilla/ha; para el fósforo 0, 90, 180 y 270 kg de P205/ha y para potasio 0, 30, 60 y 90 kg de K20/ha. Los tratamientos fueron seleccionados con base a una Matriz Plan Puebla I para tres factores, obteniéndose 14 combinaciones, a las cuales se adicionó un testigo absoluto. El diseño experimental utilizado fue bloques al azar con seis repeticiones. Se evaluaron 10 componentes de rendimiento, una variable de calidad física y tres variables de calidad fisiológica. El Tratamiento 1-90-30 presentó las medias más altas para todos los componentes de rendimiento, y produjo la mayor cantidad de semilla (405 kg/ha), en una sola cosecha. Los componentes que mostraron una correlación significativa con el rendimiento fueron: tallos con racimos por planta, racimos por planta, vainas por planta y semillas por planta; siendo el número de tallos con racimos por planta, el que presentó el mayor efecto directo sobre el rendimiento. La mejor calidad física de la semilla evaluada mediante el peso de 1000 semillas fue obtenida por los Tratamientos 3-90-30, 3-90-60 y 3-180-30, con medias de 2.11, 2.12 y 2.15 g, respectivamente. En cuanto a la calidad fisiológica, todos los tratamientos fueron estadísticamente iguales en su capacidad de germinación, pero en cuanto al vigor, evaluado en primer conteo y por clasificación de plántulas, los Tratamientos 3-90-60, 3-180-30, 3-180-60, 5-90- 60 y 1-90-30, resultaron ser superiores a los demás. Los coeficientes de correlación mostraron que no existe correlación significativa (P<0.05), entre el rendimiento y la calidad física y fisiológica de la semilla. La densidad de siembra fue el factor que afectó más significativamente, tanto a al rendimiento como a sus componentes; mientras que el fósforo y el potasio, afectaron principalmente la calidad de la semilla. En el análisis económico el Tratamiento 1-90-30 fue el mejor.

Published: January 2024

Para evaluar el efecto del estiércol bovino combinado con fertilizante químico en un suelo cultivado con maíz bajo riego, se estableció un experimento durante el ciclo primavera verano de 1996, en terrenos del ejido Encarnación de Guzmán, Coahuila, donde se utilizó un diseño experimental de bloques al azar con doce tratamientos y seis repeticiones. Los factores estudiados fueron: estiércol bovino y fertilizante químico (N y P como un sólo factor); las fuentes nutrimentales fueron: urea, sulfato de amonio y superfosfato simple; los niveles de estiércol fueron: 0, 10, 20 y 30 t ha-1, mientras que las dosis de N y P fueron: 0, 60, 120 y 180; 0, 26.66, 53.33 y 80 kg ha-1, respectivamente. 

Se realizaron tres muestreos de suelo, de la planta se registraron los días a floración masculina y femenina, su altura de planta y la de la mazorca, y el rendimiento de materia seca. 

El tratamiento con mayor producción de materia seca fue el de 60 kg ha-1N (urea), 26 kg ha-1 P2O5 (superfosfato triple) y 10 t ha-1 de estiércol, con 15.95 t ha-1 de materia seca. La dosis óptima económica de capital ilimitado fue de: 60.83 kg ha-1de N, 27.02 kg ha-1 de P2O5 y 9.40 t ha-1 de estiércol, con 15.94 t ha-1de materia seca. 

Las características del suelo: materia orgánica, capacidad de intercambio catiónico, pH, densidad aparente, N aprovechable, P y K disponibles, experimentaron ciertas modificaciones, sobre todo con los tratamientos que incluían estiércol solo y la combinación de éste con fertilizantes químicos. Es factible la aplicación de materiales químicos y orgánicos de manera combinada, para obtener rendimientos económicamente costeables.
effect of high calorie formula on head circumference and body length on young children with stunted due to feeding problems
Authors: Atmaja Ni Made Indah Dwijayanti , Irawan Roedi
Published: January 2024

Background: Feeding is a complex process which requires the coordination of several organ systems. However, special conditions lead to feeding problems which increase risk of nutrition problems and growth retardation, resulting in undernutrition. Objectives: This study was performed to investigate young children's length and head circumference. More specifically, this study investigated children stunted due to feeding problems in their first two years and with over three months of nutritional and medicative intervention. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2019-December 2020 on healthy young children. These children were aged 6 to 24 months and brought in by their parents for nutritional consultations due to constant body weight or feeding problems. Subject numbers were determined using total sampling during the study period. The feeding problem diagnosis and physical examination were done by a pediatrician specialized in nutrition and metabolic syndromes. Results: There were 139 infants and young children recruited, of which 65 were boys and 74 were girls. Their mean age was 15.11, give or take 0.53 months. There were 32 subjects selected based on their experience with at least three months of nutritional intervention and medication. Microcephaly was detected in three subjects (23.08%). Nutritional intervention increased the head circumference-for-age z-score (HCAZ) from -0.77 + 1.19 to -0.27 + 1.05 (p = 0.012). After 90 days of intervention, there was no microcephaly detected despite no significant difference. Nutritional intervention also increased the height-for-age z-score. Conclusion: Feeding problems contributes to constant body weight gain and feeding problems. Nutritional intervention can be done by giving children high calorie formula to prevent growth faltering and restore growth during the first two years of life. Nutritional intervention improved the growth parameters, including head circumference z-scores.
Complete blood profile of children diagnosed with asymptomatic urinary tract infection: oral nutritional supplement (ONS) intervention
Authors: Widjaja Nur Aisiyah , Hanindita Meta Herdiana
Published: January 2024

Background: Young children are at high risk of urinary tract infections (UTI) that present as asymptomatic non-specific signs without clinical presentation. UTIs put children at risk of malnutrition, and thus early diagnosis, nutritional management, and medication are important. The administration of oral nutritional supplements (ONS) with an energy intake of 400 kcal/day is thought to be an effective strategy to provide balanced nutritional needs. Objectives: This study aims to investigate the clinical symptoms and growth pattern of young children with UTIs and with clinical symptoms of poor feeding and growth faltering who received medical treatment and nutritional intervention for three months. Methods:  A cross-sectional analytical study was conducted from January 2019 to December 2020 at the outpatient installation unit of Husada Utama Hospital. Subjects were children aged one to five years old, with the main complaint of poor feeding and constant weight gain. UTIs were identified according to the urine culture results. If the count exceeded 100.000 cfu/ml, it was determined as a urinary tract infection. Results: A total of 37 children were enrolled in this study and received diet advice, ONS, and medication. The proportion of boys was higher than girls in this study (21 to 16, respectively). Undernutrition was experienced by 14 subjects (37.84%) who were stunted or severely stunted (13 subjects or 35.14%), underweight or severely underweight (seven subjects or 18.92%), and wasted (four or 10.81%). It was shown that ONS improves mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH) significantly, and slightly increased haemoglobin though there was no significant difference. White blood cell (WBC) and lymphocyte levels reduced after ONS intervention. Conclusion: Nutritional intervention with ONS improves erythropoiesis (MCV and MCH) but reduces WBC and lymphocytes in children with UTIs.
Effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy on kidney function in metabolic syndrome (MetS) patients
Authors: Hisnindarsyah Hisnindarsyah
Published: January 2024

Background: Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO) therapy is the therapy of inhaling 100% pure oxygen in a hyperbaric chamber of more than 1 absolute atmosphere. Currently, the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy is increasingly widespread, not only for decompression sickness and diving problems. But it has been used for clinical therapy, cosmetics, and geriatric care. The American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has also confirmed various clinical indications, especially those related to metabolic syndromes such as Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFU). But the use of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for kidney disease has not been fully study yet. Purpose: Here we summarized the scientific reason to use this therapy as adjuvant for patients with chronic kidney disease due to metabolic syndrome. Opinion: Several benefits of HBO has been reported such as reducing oxidative stress, alleviate vascular dysfunction and amyloid burden, ischemia and reperfusion injury, Increased NO production, and suggested to be useful as an adjuvant therapy in T2DM suspected with chronic kidney disease (CKD), as HBO therapy decrease the proteinuria by 50%. Renal hypoxia is the underlying causes of CK progression and associated hypertension. In hypoxic conditions, cells lack of oxygen, so that the cells carry out anaerobic metabolism or fermentation or Warburg effect. HBO therapy can assist in supplying oxygen more quickly at the cellular level (internal respiration), so that metabolism can re-process aerobically. Conclusion: HBO Therapy improves the patient's general condition in CKD with MetS, thereby preventing kidney disease complications. The effectiveness of HBOT for kidney disease still requires further research with a more frequent and longer treatment.

Published: January 2024

Health care systems worldwide were proven unprepared when faced with the COVID-19 pandemic and its ineffaceable effect. Facing COVID-19 complications led to the implementation of a great number of measures. The impact on solid organ transplantation and especially liver transplantations (LT) was noteworthy. Repositioning of personnel, lack of non-COVID ICU beds and suspension of operation for several departments are only a few of the factors contributing to the decrease of LTs performed, during the first and second waves of the pandemic. The restricted number of donors negatively affected the waiting lists. Scientific societies published new guidelines in an effort to widen the pool of donors. The aim of our study was to depict the major impact of COVID-19 on the liver transplantations performed worldwide and in Greece, taking into consideration both patients and health care systems.
Impression management in bankruptcy: An analysis of the narratives in listed companies
Authors: Moreno Alonso , Camacho-Miñano María-del-Mar
Published: January 2024

Managers tend to use opportunistically corporate narrative disclosure when financial performance is poor. However, there is little research on impression management in situations of extreme distress, such as bankruptcy. This paper analyzes ten textual characteristics of corporate reports at two moments in time, the last year just before entering the legal bankruptcy procedure (sick year) and five years earlier (healthy year). Specifically, it investigates the management reports of all bankrupt listed companies in Spain from 2005 to 2019. Our findings near bankruptcy only show behavior that may be compatible with impression management in relation to length and positive language. Litigation risk associated with bankruptcy may condition managers’ attitudes to using narratives in a self-serving manner. Our results are also robust if we only test the most financially distressed bankrupt companies. This paper contributes to the understanding of impression management in companies in conditions of extreme financial distress.

Los directivos suelen utilizar la información narrativa de forma oportunista cuando el desempeño empresarial es deficiente. Sin embargo, hay pocas investigaciones sobre estas prácticas de impression management en situaciones de extrema dificultad, como en concurso de acreedores. Este trabajo analiza diez características textuales de la información financiera en dos momentos de tiempo, el último año justo antes de entrar en concurso de acreedores (año enfermo) y cinco años antes (año sano). En concreto, se investigan los informes de gestión de todas las empresas cotizadas en concurso de acreedores en España desde 2005 hasta 2019. Los resultados, en el año antes de entrar en concurso, únicamente muestran un comportamiento que puede ser compatible con prácticas de impression management en el caso de la extensión del documento y del lenguaje positivo. El riesgo de litigio asociado al concurso de acreedores puede condicionar la actitud de los directivos a la hora de utilizar la información narrativa de forma sesgada. Los resultados también son robustos si sólo se analizan las empresas en concurso que se encuentran en una peor situación financiera. Este trabajo contribuye a la comprensión de las prácticas de impression management en condiciones de extrema dificultad financiera.
Marcas y productos no infantiles en los canales para niños de YouTube, estudio de caso
Authors: Neira Placer Paula
Published: January 2024

Los anunciantes de todo tipo de productos han aprovechado la actual proliferación de canales de YouTube infantiles (niños de cero a cinco años) para dirigirse a un público que desde muy pequeños forman parte del proceso de consumo al intervenir con distintos roles (usuarios, influenciadores). En este estudio de caso, en el que se ha realizado un análisis de carácter cuantitativo y cualitativo mediante la revisión de los contenidos de los 24 primeros meses del canal de Vlad y Niki de YouTube en español, desde su apertura en diciembre de 2018 hasta febrero de 2021, se busca conocer en qué medida y cómo se muestran en los contenidos productos de marcas identificables que no sean juguetes. La investigación exhibe la persistente presencia de productos que no son juguetes, en especial artículos de moda; alimentación, bebidas y dulces y productos electrónicos. Se han detectado productos cuya aparición puede ser éticamente cuestionable por incentivar malos hábitos de alimentación o la generación de conductas adictivas en el ámbito de los videojuegos. A pesar de las dificultades que los estudios de caso suponen a la hora de generalizar conclusiones, la originalidad de este estudio reside en que se ha realizado una revisión global de todas las categorías de productos con marcas identificables más allá de los análisis más habituales que se centran en la presencia de juguetes, moda, o productos de alimentación en las redes sociales dirigidas a niños.
Repensando el uso de datos: Los intentos de los medios por abandonar el clickbait y avanzar hacia la fidelización de la audiencia
Authors: Laferrara Valentina , Justel-Vázquez Santiago Javier , Micó-Sanz Josep Lluís
Published: January 2024

Este artículo estudia el uso de los datos de analítica web y de redes sociales en las redacciones periodísticas que apuestan por modelos de negocio basados en la fidelización de la audiencia y el pago por contenidos. Se basa en 28 entrevistas en profundidad con trabajadores de noticias de 11 medios de comunicación situados en cinco países europeos: España, Francia, Italia, Alemania y Reino Unido. Revela que los medios apuestan por priorizar los indicadores de calidad (permanencia en página, comentarios, etc.) frente a los indicadores de cantidad (páginas vistas, usuarios únicos, etc.), aunque aún no pueden soslayar estos últimos por su histórica dependencia de la publicidad como fuentes de ingresos. Las redes sociales cumplen un rol esencial en sus estrategias de fidelización de la audiencia, pero la falta de transparencia de estas plataformas despierta recelos en algunas redacciones. La apuesta por modelos de negocio basados en la fidelización no significa dejar de lado el trabajo con los datos de audiencia, sino cambiar de manera significativa la forma de abordarlos. La decidida apuesta por garantizar el éxito del modelo de negocio ha cambiado significativamente el trabajo con los datos de audiencia y las redes sociales, conduciendo a los medios a abandonar el contenido clickbait y priorizar el contenido de calidad.
El anti-autor como turista visual. La obra ilimitada de Javier Aguirre
Authors: Benet Ferrando Vicente José
Published: January 2024

La obra de Javier Aguirre supone un ejemplo muy complejo de la noción de autor en ámbito del cine. A lo largo de su faceta profesional, realizó películas comerciales en las que seguía los parámetros convencionales del cine más popular. Al mismo tiempo, también fue responsable de películas fuertemente individuales en la línea del cine más experimental e independiente de su tiempo. Este artículo reflexiona sobre la idea de (anti)autor a partir de las relaciones entre ambos modelos de producción. La noción de estilo en cine ha de dar cuenta de las condiciones de producción, el estado de la tecnología fílmica y el modo en que se plantea el trabajo creativo en cada momento de la historia. En este texto, nos centramos en las películas dirigidas por Aguirre entre 1960 y 1985, los años de mayor y más consistente producción, recorriendo sus principales referentes temáticos y los recursos expresivos específicos que caracterizarán ese periodo. Pensaremos finalmente la articulación de estos temas en un campo temático que se articula a su vez como metonimia y también como metáfora de la España en el proceso de modernización durante el Desarrollismo: la experiencia turística.
Mejor pedir perdón que pedir permiso. Un análisis de las estrategias participativas en los conflictos ambientales de la región Este de Uruguay
Authors: Trobo Marina
Published: January 2024

Este trabajo se enmarca en un proyecto de Iniciación a la Investigación financiado por la Comisión Sectorial de Investigación Científica (CSIC) de Uruguay, cuyo objetivo fue analizar las estrategias participativas impulsadas desde el año 2010 a la actualidad, en la región Este y en el marco de los conflictos ambientales. El proyecto relevó y caracterizó los conflictos ambientales en dicho período y territorio, a través de un repertorio de conflictos, actores y actrices involucrados, georeferenciando las preocupaciones y temáticas emergentes. Identificó qué estrategias se generaron, desde las instituciones y la sociedad, para abordar estos conflictos. Posteriormente realizó una tarea de procesamiento para clasificar y agrupar las estrategias en función de elementos comunes y discordantes, utilizando la escalera de la participación y evidenciando la identificación de la participación como elemento clave para el abordaje de estos conflictos. Sin embargo no existe un consenso sobre qué participación propiciar y mediante qué estrategias. Concluye que los espacios de participación analizados distan de propiciar el poder ciudadano en la toma de decisiones, resultando en espacios de participación simbólica: informativa y consultiva. Reflexiona, finalmente, sobre posibles líneas que contribuyan a esta discusión en clave de desarrollo sustentable en la Región Este.

Influence of Vegetation in The Flood Drainage Ditch
Authors: Toosi Golnoosh
Published: January 2024

Flood drainage ditches serve as critical infrastructure, directing and managing floodwaters to prevent indiscriminate flow, reduce flooding risks, and curb erosion. Vegetation plays a crucial role in enhancing the effectiveness of these ditches. It acts as a natural barrier, mitigating floodwater speed and impact while stabilizing soil and preventing erosion. Furthermore, vegetation aids in water quality improvement by filtering pollutants and nutrients, making it safer for humans, animals, and plants. It also reduces peak flows and attenuates floodwaters, thereby minimizing urban flooding risks. Additionally, the presence of vegetation in floodplains provides extra storage capacity for excess water, supporting floodplain management and biodiversity conservation. The study emphasizes the importance of carefully considering vegetation type, characteristics, and management practices to optimize flood drainage ditch performance. Selection of suitable plant species and morphological optimization significantly enhances drainage capacity and infiltration rates. Proper maintenance and management practices are vital to ensure unimpeded water flow and prevent obstruction.

Szerencsés csillagzat alatt nyíló rózsáskert. Nemzetiségi szövetségek, néprajzkutatási aspirációk és lokális törekvések (a hartai festett bútor példája)
Authors: Ament-Kovács Bence
Published: January 2024

The Germans who remained in Hungary after the Second World War had to overcome complex political, economic, and social difficulties. In cultural terms, the self-definitions of Germans living in our country at that time did not ensure the national cohesion of those defined as ‘German’ by the authorities, who were bound together primarily by a shared trauma. Individuals and communities alike were searching for their place in the changed circumstances, and the Democratic Association of Germans in Hungary (Magyarországi Németek Demokratikus Szövetsége) sought to bring them together as an umbrella organisation. Only in the 1970s did the association begin to professionalize its activities, conducting ethnographic research in cooperation with qualified specialists. It was in this process that Harta, already famous for its folk art, came into their sights. It was the specific economic potential of the Bács-Kiskun County settlement and its ethnic and confessional enclave character that laid the foundations for the unified set of objects and motifs of the local center of furniture painting. After the Second World War, this furniture-making tradition met with a relatively accepting cultural policy on the part of the county administration, and the local intelligentsia’s supportive attitude towards German heritage. By the 1970s, there still lived a furniture painter in Harta who picked up the brush once again, and won the highest folk art award, regularly participated in exhibitions and gala events, and even made painted furniture in the cooperative’s subsidiary branch at the initiative of the local council president. This process ensured that the painted furniture of Harta became representative of both the traditionalist aspirations of the German association and the cultural representation of national policy, and elevated it to the most emblematic style of painted furniture and the common heritage of the German community in Hungary.
Örökségkonstrukció és időtapasztalat. A kulturális örökségteremtés néprajzi/etnográfiai megközelítései és hétköznapi társadalmi praxisai
Authors: Borbély Sándor
Published: January 2024

The study focuses on the examination of today’s ethnographical approaches and theoreticalmethodological paradigms of “cultural heritage,” as well as everyday social practices related to heritage-making (preparing lists of local values and Hungarikums, monumentalization, festivalization, museumization, etc.). In the first part of the paper, the author briefly describes the most common ethnographic approaches to the concept of “cultural heritage”, as well as the most important analytical models related to the given field of knowledge. In this regard he argues for approaching heritage phenomena and their various manifestations (objects, places, and practices) through a kind of ontological framework (in the context of alternative, cultural concepts of the future). Through an empirical example – the analysis of the collection/preservation of values that started after 2010 among the Hungarian minority in Transcarpathia – the study presents the local/regional practices, ritual and symbolic patterns of heritage-making in the given Western Ukrainian region. Examining the activities of minority political-cultural elites, the author concentrates on the analysis of the processes of the transformation of meaning through which individual local cultural assets (or certain arbitrarily, casually accentuated elements) become global social realities (national-translocal heritage objects).
UNVEILING ECONOMIC DISTRESS IN SOUTH ASIA: DOES STOCK MARKET PERFORMANCE MATTER?
Authors: SULEHRI FIAZ AHMAD , SULEHRI SANA SARWAR , SULEHRI RUBINA FIAZ
Published: January 2024

This study explores economic misery determinants in South Asia from 1990 to 2022, focusing on the moderating role of stock market performance. Economic misery, the dependent variable, is analyzed in relation to stock market performance, interest rates, education, population density, economic growth, remittances, and the interaction between stock market performance and interest rates. Using an autoregressive distributed lag model, results reveal shaded connections. Stock market performance shows a non-significant negative coefficient, while interest rates exhibit a substantial negative coefficient, indicating a strong association with reduced economic misery. Unexpectedly, education levels have a positive coefficient, while economic growth, population density, and remittances display negative coefficients, suggesting their roles in mitigating economic distress. The moderation effect of stock market performance and interest rates is notably significant, emphasizing their interplay in alleviating economic distress. Policymakers are urged to implement prudent monetary policies for interest rate stability, prioritize education, foster economic growth, plan urban development, and promote diversified income sources. Transparent and stable stock markets should be ensured through strategies enhancing investor confidence, establishing safeguards against market manipulation, and incentivizing long-term investments.

Published: January 2024

This research paper seeks to investigate the association between internal and external corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives and their influence on emotional labor and job satisfaction. Through the exploration of these factors, the study provides valuable insights into the potential advantages of CSR initiatives for both organizations and their employees. Specifically, this research underscores the significance of a holistic CSR strategy that takes into account both internal and external initiatives and their effects on emotional labor and job satisfaction. Ultimately, the aim of this research is to offer practical and actionable recommendations for organizations seeking to strengthen their CSR programs and promote employee satisfaction and retention. Smart PLS 3.0 was used to analyze data collected from 142 employees of a major bank in Pakistan, by using purposive sampling. The results revealed that both Internal and External CSR initiatives have a significant positive impact on job satisfaction. Emotional labor was found to mediate the relationship between CSR and job satisfaction, highlighting the importance of emotional labor management in organizations that prioritize CSR initiatives. The findings of this study have practical implications for organizations in terms of the potential benefits of CSR initiatives for employee well-being and job satisfaction. Theoretical implications based on Social Expectation Theory suggest that employee expectations and perceptions of socially responsible behavior are important factors in shaping employee attitudes and behaviors. The originality of this study lies in its focus on the banking sector in Pakistan and the exploration of the relationship between internal and external CSR initiatives, emotional labor, and job satisfaction. While previous studies have investigated the impact of CSR on employee well-being and job satisfaction, this study contributes to the literature by examining the mediating role of emotional labor in the relationship between CSR and job satisfaction. Additionally, this study uses Smart PLS 3.0, a relatively new method in the field of CSR research, to analyze the data. Overall, the combination of the unique context of the study, the mediating role of emotional labor, and the use of advanced statistical techniques adds to the originality and contribution of this study to the existing literature on CSR and employee well-being.

Published: January 2024

Previous research has focused on customer perceptions of corporate social responsibility (CSR), leaving the perspective of employees relatively unexplored. This study delves into the unfamiliar territory of employees' views on CSR, recognizing that corporate culture and competencies contribute to competitive advantages. Employee perceptions of CSR activities are identified as pivotal in fostering the degree of employee commitment to their organization and its impact on the general efficiency of the corporation. An in-depth analysis of employees' perceptions of corporate social responsibility (CSR) encompasses crucial elements, particularly the perceived alignment between company culture and CSR capacity. This investigation provides insights into the diverse effects of CSR perceptions on overall corporate performance. The present study aims to evaluate the impact of perceived cultural fit and corporate social responsibility (CSR) competence on employee attachment and performance.

Gereja Sinodal dan Pendidikan di STFT Fajar Timur
Authors: Ngari Ignasius
Published: January 2024

Historically STFT Fajar Timur has evolved in cooperation and immersion within the spirit of synod. It is the spirit of partnership, participation and mission. In its historical dynamic, STFT Fajar Timur has embraced five modes of synod . They are the synod between STFT Fajar and: universal church, the local church, local society,  the state and  all human beings. However, it seems that historical challenge, eclesicatical change and social progress have shifted the intensity of its synod. Unfortunately, certain element is eventually disappearing.  The missing synodal element is the communion with all human beings (female and male, lay people and priest candidate). The question is to what extent, STFT Fajar Timur is able to reorganize its institution  to remain capturing the fundamental aspect of synodal life in its academic vibration. Principally, it must firmly stand on  five pivotal aspects: the education as a community of dialogue, trust,   self-examination, citizen of the global and narrative imagination.

Authors: Ferdiansyah Ricky , Pratama Alvin , Yulanda Putra Yosie
Published: January 2024

Introduction: Proximal humerus fractures, more common in women and increasingly prevalent with age due to falls, pose a challenge in orthopaedic care, often leading to persistent pain and reduced shoulder function. This systematic review aims to evaluate diverse management strategies for these fractures in adults, analysing their effectiveness, complications, and patient-reported outcomes to guide treatment decisions.
Methods: The researchers in this study followed the 2020 Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines to ensure that their work met the required standards. This was done to ensure the precision and reliability of the conclusions derived from the research.
Result Our search produced 13 results. After looking at the titles and summaries, we found several  papers that fit our criteria. At first, we excluded few articles because they were written in review and case report style. But after reading the full papers carefully, we included five papers in our final analysis. These papers included prospective, retrospective studies, and prospective randomized control trial study.
Conclusion: This comprehensive study compared ORIF, HA, and RSA in PHF patients, revealing that ORIF was preferred in younger patients with simpler fractures, while RSA was favoured in older patients with complex fractures. ORIF demonstrated better motion than HA, but higher reoperation rates were noted for ORIF and HA compared to RSA, essential information for patient discussions. Postoperative fractures were prevalent, highlighting a need for counselling to prevent future falls and fractures post-PHF treatment. Despite prior inconclusive studies, the need to reduce unnecessary surgeries, especially in the elderly, remains crucial to minimize complications and healthcare costs amidst the shifting treatment landscape.
KHI vis-a-vis CLD-KHI: Sejarah atas Dinamika Perdebatan Pelegalan Hukum Islam Indonesia
Authors: Asroor Zaimul , Izzatunnisa Eva , Ismail Muhammad
Published: January 2024

Awal masa kemerdekaan Indonesia ditandai dengan semangat para ulama’ dalam merumuskan kembali hukum-hukum Islam—setelah sebelumnya hukum Islam telah “dikebiri” oleh Belanda. Dalam makalah ini, penulis ingin menunjukkan geliat para ulama’ dan pemerintah Indonesia dalam merumuskan suatu hukum Islam (khususnya keluarga) untuk dijadikan patokan umum bagi seluruh Pengadilan Agama di bumi Nusantara. Tentunya dalam usaha mereka untuk meramu hukum Islam tidak semudah membalikkan telapak tangan, karena di dalamnya terdapat pertentangan dan perbedaan pendapat. Namun, munculnya UU Pernikahan Tahun 1974, dan kemudian disempurnakan dengan KHI (Kompilasi Hukum Islam) menjadi suatu keberhasilan tersendiri pemerintah dan ulama‟ Indonesia untuk menyatukan suara dalam masalah Pernikahan, Perwakafan, dan Perwarisan. Di sisi lain, adanya upaya pembaharuan KHI lewat CLD (Counter Legal Draft)-KHI menunjukkan adanya ketidak puasan sebagian golongan terhadap rumusan KHI. Akan tetapi, usaha mereka sia-sia karena dianggap bertentangan dengan ajaran Islam dan akhirnya dibukukan oleh Kemenag. Dalam artikel ini penulis ingin mengungkapkan sejarah dan dinamika perdebatan pelegalan hukum Islam di Indonesia
