BACKGROUND

Foot ulcers are a common complication of diabetes, often resulting from peripheral neuropathy and inadvertent trauma. Poor healing is exacerbated by peripheral arterial disease and poor glycemic control. Off-loading, a key treatment, leads to prolonged immobility. Patients rarely regain baseline mobility. Mobility is crucial to improve glycemia, promote vascular health and improve immobility as it is leads to nursing home admissions. There is limited research on exercise during ulcer remission.

OBJECTIVE

This pilot study will assess the feasibility and acceptability of a home-based exercise regimen aimed at safely increasing mobility and function, focusing on improving lower extremity strength, tissue perfusion, and glycemic control.

METHODS

Veterans aged 50+ with a recently healed (3-27 months) diabetic plantar foot ulcer receiving care in the VA Maryland Health Care System and enrolled in a remote temperature mat program, will be eligible. In this pilot study, 25 Veterans will be randomized to a 12-week home-based exercise regimen or standard of care (3:1 ratio). Participants will undergo tests for gait speed, knee extension strength, cutaneous perfusion, and community mobility. The intervention group will participate in virtual exercise classes twice a week and home cycling three times a week. The control group will receive standard of care guidance. Outcome measures will include feasibility, acceptability, and changes in gait speed, physical activity levels, and strength.

RESULTS

The study was funded on July 1, 2024, with data collection from October 1, 2024, to March 31, 2026. The protocol was approved by the University of Maryland IRB on May 13, 2024, and by Baltimore VA Research and Development Committee on June 13, 2024.

CONCLUSIONS

This project has potential for clinical rehabilitation translation. If acceptable, the exercise intervention will be tested in a future multi-site randomized clinical trial to assess its impact on mobility, cardiovascular events, and ulcer recurrence.

Published: January 2025

Abstract: The human face is one of the most interesting subjects involved in numerous applications. Significant progress has
been made towards the image deblurring problem, however, existing generic deblurring methods are not able to achieve
satisfying results on blurry face images. The success of the state-of-the-art image deblurring methods stems mainly from implicit
or explicit restoration of salient edges for kernel estimation. As a common method of deep learning, a convolutional neural
network (CNN) shows excellent performance in face recognition. +e features extracted by traditional face recognition methods
are greatly influenced by subjective factors and are time-consuming and laborious. In addition, these images are susceptible to
illumination, expression, occlusion, posture, and other factors, which bring a lot of interference to the computer face recognition
and increase recognition difficulty. Deep learning is the most important technical means in the field of computer vision.

Published: January 2025

Snack bar is a snack with complex nutritional content consisting of a mixture of various food ingredients compacted into a bar shape. Addition of date paste and honey is used as binders to enhance flavor and nutritional value. This research aims to determine the physicochemical characteristics, organoleptic properties, and Nutrient Adequacy Score (NAS) of sorghum-based snack bars with added date paste and honey. The study employed a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with one factor, date paste and honey, consisting of 6 treatments (0:50 g; 10:40 g; 20:30 g; 25:25 g; 30:20 g; 40:10 g) and 3 replications. The results showed that increasing honey content in snack bars increased moisture and carbohydrate levels, whereas increasing date paste content increased protein and fat levels, as well as hardness texture in the snack bars. The best treatment for the snack bars was found in treatment F5 with 40 g date paste and 10 g honey, with moisture content of 9.97%, ash content of 0.93%, protein content of 4.75%, fat content of 13.35%, carbohydrate content of 70.99%, and hardness of 23.83 N. The NAS values for the best treatment of snack bars per serving size (25 g) were 2% protein, 5% fat, and 5% carbohydrates, with a total energy value of 105.3 Kcal. The different ratios of date paste and honey significantly affected the scoring attributes of color, aroma, taste, and texture.

Da bi se cjelovito opisalo djelovanje i rad Kasima Hadžića u Drugom svjetskom ratu, potrebno je rasvijetliti pojedine dijelove njegova života iz međuratnoga razdoblja. U prvom dijelu rada predočava se Hadžićeva biografija i njegova djelatnost u međuraću, a u drugom dijelu analizira se Hadžićev rad u Nezavisnoj Državi Hrvatskoj. Hadžićeva pisanja o Novopazarskom sandžaku kao sastavnom dijelu Bosne i Hercegovine nisu bila izolirani slučaj, nego se radilo o širem raspoloženju sandžačkih muslimana. Djelovanje različitih muslimanskih uglednika iz toga kraja u razdoblju Nezavisne Države Hrvatske svjedoči o pokušajima pripajanja Sandžaka u njezin okvir.
Cost-effectiveness of vaccination against HPV of adolescent girls in the regions of Russian Federation
Authors: Rudakova A. V. , Kharit S. M. , Lobzin Yu. V.
Published: January 2025

Vaccination against human papillomavirus infection is not included in the National Calendar of Preventive Vaccinations of the Russian Federation, and vaccination is only available through regional programs. At the same time, the cost­effectiveness of vaccination in the regions of the Russian Federation may vary significantly.

The aim of this study was to assess the cost­effectiveness of vaccination with the 4­valent HPV vaccine in 12­year­old girls in the regions of the Russian Federation.

Materials and methods. A Markov model with a lifetime horizon for 12­year­old girls based on epidemiological data for the Russian Federation was used. The cost­effectiveness analysis was carried out from societal perspective. Costs and life expectancy were discounted at 3% per year.

Results. In most regions of the Russian Federation, vaccination of girls is cost saving or highly cost­effective (the cost per additional quality­adjusted life year (QALY) does not exceed the value of gross regional product per capita). Only in Dagestan, Chechnya and Ingushetia the vaccination of girls can be considered as cost­effective, but not highly costeffective tool (incremental costs per QALY exceed the GRP per capita by 14,2­37,0%).

Conclusions. Vaccination of girls before the onset of sexual activity with the 4­valent HPV vaccine is highly costeffective in most regions of the Russian Federation.
Two-Sided Matching in the Audit Market
Authors: Li Ken , McNichols Maureen , Raghunandan Aneesh
Published: January 2025

We develop and estimate a two-sided matching model of auditors and clients. We find evidence that auditors and clients engage in matching based on their preferences on both observable and unobservable characteristics. This matching appears to partly explain the “Big 4 effect” on audit outcomes: after controlling for the effects of matching, we find that the positive influence of having a Big 4 auditor on serious restatements and serious comment letter conversations with the SEC either weakens or disappears. Collectively, our results highlight the importance of accounting for two-sided matching between auditors and clients in understanding the influence of auditors on clients’ financial reporting practices.

Derivation and Validation of D-RISK: An Electronic Health Record–Driven Risk Score to Detect Undiagnosed Dysglycemia in Clinical Practice
Authors: Bowen Michael E. , Lingvay Ildiko , Meneghini Luigi , Moran Brett , Santini Noel O. , Zhang Song , Halm Ethan A.
Published: January 2025

OBJECTIVE

We derive and validate D-RISK, an electronic health record (EHR)-driven risk score to optimize and facilitate screening for undiagnosed dysglycemia (prediabetes + diabetes) in clinical practice.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

We used retrospective EHR data (derivation sample) and a prospective diabetes screening study (validation sample) to develop D-RISK. Logistic regression with backward selection was used to predict dysglycemia (HbA1c ≥5.7%) using diabetes risk factors consistently captured in structured EHR data. Model coefficients were converted to a points-based risk score. We report discrimination, sensitivity, and specificity and compare D-RISK to the American Diabetes Association (ADA) risk test and the ADA and United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) screening guidelines.

RESULTS

The derivation cohort included 11,387 patients (mean age 48 years; 65% female; 42% Hispanic; 32% non-Hispanic Black; mean BMI 32; 29% with hypertension). D-RISK included age, race, BMI, hypertension, and random glucose. The area under curve (AUC) for the risk score was 0.75 (95% CI 0.74–0.76). In the validation screening study (n = 519), the AUC was 0.71 (95% CI 0.66–0.75) which was better than the ADA and USPSTF diabetes screening guidelines (AUC = 0.52 and AUC = 0.58, respectively; P < 0.001 for both). Discrimination was similar to the ADA risk test (AUC = 0.67) using patient-reported data to supplement EHR data, although D-RISK was more sensitive (75% vs. 61%) at the recommended screening thresholds.

CONCLUSIONS

Designed for use in EHR, D-RISK performs better than commonly used screening guidelines and risk scores and may help detect undiagnosed cases of dysglycemia in clinical practice.

Psykososial støtte og oppfølging etter naturulykker – hva er kommunens plikter?
Authors: Hauken May Aasebø , Gulla Heltne Unni Marie
Published: January 2025

Natural disasters can impact communities and individuals with great force. Whether these are floods, landslides, snow avalanches, earthquakes, forest fires, or various types of extreme weather, these events can leave deep marks on people’s lives. This chapter first describes what is meant by a crisis or a disaster and what acute crisis reactions can be triggered by a natural disaster. Most people affected by a natural disaster come through it without chronic ailments, but for some affected individuals, the crisis reactions can persist. Therefore, we describe what long-term crisis reactions can occur and the risk factors for developing long-term ailments. In dealing with natural disasters, psychosocial support is crucial to help affected individuals through the crisis and restore normal function. Psychosocial support and follow-up refer to measures aimed at maintaining the mental and emo- tional health of individuals and communities in the aftermath of a natural disas- ter. Municipalities have a very important function and a great responsibility for the psychosocial follow-up after natural disasters. Consequently, this chapter highlights important principles for psychosocial support and follow-up and the municipality’s duties related to this work.

This study addressed the problem of limited knowledge and varying attitudes towards assessment and testing among school and practicing counsellors in Nigeria. The research aimed to explore the relationships between knowledge and attitudes towards these practices. Using four research questions and hypotheses, the study targeted all counsellors in Nigeria, with a purposive random sample of 350 participants drawn from attendees at the annual APROCON and CASSON conferences. Data were collected through the "Knowledge and Attitude towards Assessment and Testing among School and Practicing Counsellors in Nigeria Scale (KAATSOPCNS)," developed after an extensive literature review. Analysis was conducted using Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (PPMCC). The findings revealed significant relationships between counsellors' knowledge and attitudes towards assessment and testing, emphasizing the need for deeper understanding and professional competence. It is recommended that counsellors acquire requisite qualifications, gain practical experience, and participate in regular professional development programs to enhance their proficiency in assessment and testing. These steps are essential to ensure effective counselling practices in Nigeria.

Efficacy and Safety of Inhaled Administration of Corticosteroids in the Frame of Controlling Chronic Coughing in Dogs with Endocardiosis and Congestive Heart Failure
Authors: Kartashov S. N. , Petrova M. A.
Published: January 2025

Introduction. The main cause of chronic coughing in dogs with endocardiosis is the simultaneous occurrence of chronic bronchitis and airway collapse. Oral administration of topical corticosteroids quickly improves the clinical signs in animals, but after their administration is stopped, the undesirable signs resume. The authors deem it necessary to study the inhaled administration of corticosteroids, which, in contrast to oral administration, delivers the drug directly to the airways reducing the number of systemic side effects. The aim of the present research is to determine the efficacy and safety of inhaled administration of topical corticosteroids in the frame of controlling chronic coughing in dogs with endocardiosis and congestive heart failure.

Materials and Methods. In total, 19 dogs of small breeds with endocardiosis, congestive heart failure (CHF) and a history of chronic coughing during more than three months were included in the research. The age of the animals ranged from 7 to 15 years, an average age was 12.3 years. All dogs underwent a complete blood count, serum biochemistry profile test, urinalysis, radiography of the neck and chest in three projections, and an echocardiography. Dogs with detected systemic diseases were excluded from the research. All dogs were prescribed fluticasone inhalations: one inhalation of 6–8 inhales 2 times a day using an AeroDawg-type inhaler spacer. Every 7 days during 35 days, the owners were completing a questionnaire on cough characteristics. Clinical examination of animals was carried out every 7 days including auscultation and ultrasound examination of the chest to detect the pulmonary edema and fluid in the chest. For early detection of CHF decompensation, the following indices were assessed by means of echocardiography: left atrium-to-aorta ratio; left ventricular internal diastolic diameter; ejection fraction of the left ventricle and left ventricular contraction.

Results. Inhaled administration of fluticasone has improved the quality of life of dogs — a positive effect has been noticed in animals already from the second week of treatment, and by the 21st day the stabilization of the patients' condition has been recorded. Coughing in general, as well as individual frequency, duration and severity of cough have decreased to minimum. Also, treatment with fluticasone has proved its safety, because within 35 days neither left ventricular systolic function impairment nor lung congestion increase, nor signs of pulmonary edema have been detected.

Discussion and Conclusion. The research results have proved the efficacy and safety of inhaled fluticasone in the frame of controlling coughing in dogs with endocardiosis and congestive heart failure. However, since treatment with fluticasone was evaluated only for 35 days, further studies with a longer observation period are necessary to exclude the possibility of cardiovascular complications.
Epidemiologia - tulevaisuuden näkymät
Authors: Miettinen Olli S.
Published: January 2025

Epidemiologisen tutkimuksen käsite kehittyy jatkuvasti. Enää epidemiologiaa ei määritellä metodinsa pohjalta eikä se enää keskity yksinomaan sairauksien etiologiaan ja niiden ehkäisyyn väestössä. Nykyään niin tieteellisen kuin hallinnon apuna käytetyn epidemiologisen tutkimuksen katsotaan käsittelevän väestöllisten ilmiöiden lisäksi kliinisiä, yksilötason kysymyksiä. Sen sovellutusalue on laajentunut ehkäisystä koko terveydenhuoltoon, diagnoosista ennusteeseen, mukaan lukien intervention vaikutukset ennusteeseen sekä kliinisessä lääketieteessä että väestötasolla. Ennen pitkää yleisesti tullaan oivaltamaan, ettei epidemiologia ole, varsinkaan tässä ajassa nykymerkityksessä, itsenäinen tieteenala. Pikemminkin epidemiologia tullaan yhä enemmän samaistamaan sovellettuun tutkimukseen niin terveydenhuollon hallinnossa kuin terveystieteissäkin – tutkimustoimintaan, joka vasta tulevaisuudessa tulee saamaan oikeutetun paikkansa terveydenhuollon arvioinnissa ja käytännön terveydenhuollon välittämänä tieteellisenä perustana.
Voiko ravitsemusepidemiologinen tutkimus antaa perusteet väestön ravintosuositusten laatimiselle?
Authors: Pietinen Pirjo
Published: January 2025

Ravintosuosituksia on periaatteessa kahdenlaisia: perinteiset Recommended Daily Allowance -tyyppiset suositukset, joissa määritellään ravintoaineille vähimmäissaantitasot, joiden katsotaan riittävän takaamaan hyvän ravitsemustilan, sekä toisaalta yleisemmällä tasolla tehdyt suositukset, jotka tähtäävät kansanravitsemuksen parantamiseen.
Suositusten perustana oleva tutkimustieto kasvaa nopeasti, mutta silti yksittäisiin suosituslukuihin ei ole helppo päätyä. Esimerkkinä selvitetään suolan käyttöä koskevan suosituksen taustoja. Ravitsemusepidemiologinen tutkimus suuntautuu yhä enemmän suuriin kohorttitutkimuksiin ja interventioihin, joiden uskotaan antavan runsaasti uutta tietoa etenkin ravinnon ja syöpätautien välisten yhteyksien osalta jo tämän vuosikymmenen kuluessa.
Revisión sistemática de programas de entrenamiento cognitivo basados en IA: algoritmos, poblaciones y dominios cognitivos estimulados
Authors: Bedoya Leiva Oscar Fernando , Figueroa-Polanco Paula Andrea
Published: January 2025

Este artículo presenta una revisión bibliográfica dividida en dos fases. La primera fase expone los hallazgos encontrados en la literatura gris sobre programas de entrenamiento cognitivo que implementan estrategias de inteligencia artificial (IA) con uso comercial. La segunda fase muestra los resultados de la búsqueda realizada en bases de datos científicas, centrándose en estudios que describen el diseño e implementación de software para entrenamientos cognitivos mediante el uso de algoritmos de IA. El objetivo ha sido identificar qué algoritmos inteligentes fueron implementados, qué funcionalidades o momentos dentro de los entrenamientos cognitivos intervienen estos algoritmos, qué poblaciones se han estudiado y qué dominios cognitivos fueron estimulados. La revisión se ha realizado siguiendo el protocolo PRISMA (por sus siglas en inglés Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyzes), guiada por una pregunta de investigación que orientó tanto la búsqueda de software comercial en literatura gris como la realizada en siete bases de datos científicas. En la literatura gris se lograron identificar 31 plataformas de uso comercial para entrenamientos cognitivos que hacen uso de algoritmos inteligentes, mientras que de las revistas científicas se extrajeron 291 registros. Tanto los programas comerciales como los artículos fueron filtrados siguiendo los criterios de inclusión establecidos para obtener una selección final de cuatro programas y nueve artículos que han sido utilizados para los propósitos de este estudio en la fase de análisis. Los hallazgos mostraron que los algoritmos inteligentes más utilizados son los sistemas de recomendación, particularmente los de filtrado colaborativo, y se utilizan en mayor proporción para proponer desafíos durante  las sesiones de entrenamiento o para variar la dificultad de los ejercicios a partir de los resultados que obtienen los participantes. El objetivo poblacional en las plataformas comerciales son participantes de cualquier edad, particularmente adultos de edad media, mientras que en las investigaciones los grupos etarios más estudiados se enfocaron en niños con enfermedades o trastornos de aprendizaje y adultos mayores entre los 60 y 90 años con deterioro cognitivo o lesiones cerebrales. En ambos casos, apuntan a estimular en un mayor porcentaje dominios cognitivos como la atención, la memoria y las funciones ejecutivas.

Agricultural terraces of Dagestan: ancient legacy for climate change adaptation and building resilience of mountain communities
Authors: Gracheva Raisa G. , Vinogradova Vera V. , Sheludkov Alexander V. , Muduev Shakhmardan S.
Published: January 2025

In agricultural mountain regions, changes in weather patterns force people to look for new agricultural activities, shift from agriculture to tourism services, or even leave the mountains. This study discusses the role of Dagestan’s agricultural terraces as a potential resource for mountain people to adapt agricultural activities to climate change, thereby demonstrating the community resilience grounded on local traditional practices. We selected eight mountainous administrative districts of Dagestan as a case study area and tracked the changes of average annual, summer, and winter temperatures and precipitation for different altitudes in 2011–2020 compared to 2000–2010. We also conducted 30 informal exploratory interviews with local farmers and officials (purposive sampling) aiming at revealing common local narratives regarding climate change and its impact on agricultural activities, including the use of terraces. According to our results, respondents perceive the warming and drying of the Dagestan mountains as a growing water scarcity due to decreased precipitation and reduced snow cover, and as an opportunity to expand agricultural activities to higher altitudes. Agricultural terraces are seen as a prime land resource, preventing erosion and conserving soil moisture. Including terraces as a tourist attraction could increase interest in the local landscape and its history and may also indirectly serve to strengthen the resilience of local communities. While climate change may make it difficult to farm in the mountains, tourism becomes an additional source of income for farmers and supports agriculture.
Modern evolution and hydrological regime of the Bashkara Glacier Lakes system (Central Caucasus, Russia) after the outburst on September 1, 2017
Authors: Pavlyukevich Ekaterina D. , Krylenko Inna N. , Krylenko Ivan V.
Published: January 2025

In high mountain areas, glacial lake outbursts are often the cause of floods and extreme events. Investigation of these events is especially important in the context of ongoing intensive deglaciation and climate change. This study is focused on the monitoring of the Bashkara Glacier Lakes after their outburst on September 1st, 2017, which are located in the most glaciated and populated part of the Central Caucasus of Russia, in the Mt. Elbrus region. Following the incident, the lakes system has transformed into flow-through. However, the lakes system has undergone significant changes and remains unstable and potentially hazardous. In this research, we used remote sensing data and field observations to assess the condition of the Bashkara Lakes. The water level, area and volume of the lakes are unstable. Between 2018 and 2024, the area of Bashkara Lake increased by 32% and volume by 41%, with the level increasing by 3.2 meters. At the same time, Lapa Lake was rapidly shrinking. The area of Lapa Lake in 2018-2024 decreased by 51%, the volume by 66%, and the level decreased by 4.2 meters. In addition to the continuing rise of the water level, the possibility of future rockfalls cannot be excluded, which can trigger a re-outburst. Ephemeral glacier lakes were also discovered, their merging with the main lake can cause a dramatic increase in the lake volume. On the other hand, other factors, such as the decrease in water temperature of Bashkara lake and its flowage, indicate the stability of the lakes system.

Religious language has become part of social life. Apart from functioning as an expression of religious devotion, religious language also contains the meaning of internalizing religious virtue, which has implications for social piety. This research aims to describe the Jum’at Berkah tradition at the Jogokariyan Mosque in Yogyakarta. This socioreligious tradition has strong roots in the doctrine of philanthropy and takes advantage of the momentum of Friday as a day that is believed to contain many blessings. Methodologically, this research utilizes qualitative research procedures and data collection through observation and interviews. By utilizing an anthropolinguistic perspective, this research finds several conclusions. First, the Jum’at Berkah tradition carried out at the Jogokariyan Mosque in Yogyakarta, is a cultural phenomenon of Muslim society closely related to the muscular and implicative elements of the Islamic language. Environmental, social, and religious understanding factors contribute to implementing Jum’at Berkah through Sego Jum’at. The use of the term Jum’at Berkah in giving charities is based on people's religious understanding. It explains that Friday is sayyidul ayyam, a good day, and distinguishes it from other days. Second, Jum’at Berkah has a religious impact with a socio-economic dimension, specifically increasing people's awareness of sharing, strengthening brotherhood ties with fellow humans, and competing to do kindness.
Traduciendo del catalán al valenciano en el 700
Authors: Ballester Gómez Xaverio

El primer tratado conocido sobre la guitarra española data, en su primera edición, no conservada, de 1586 (Barcelona). De 1758 data la primera edición valenciana, basada muy probablemente en una edición gerundense de 1745. En la publicación valenciana, el original suplemento en catalán aparece substituido por una traducción literal al valenciano. Entre 1776 y 1820 el mismo librito conocerá una segunda edición valenciana. El suplemento ahora representa una traducción libre y abreviada, observándose un valenciano más popular. En los dos casos la comparación entre las versiones catalana y valenciana permite constatar las diferencias a la sazón existentes entre ambas lenguas.

Published: January 2025

The Kapuas region in Central Kalimantan exhibits intriguing geological potential due to the presence of a large river and sediment flows closely associated with fluvial activity. This study aims to identify the distribution of sediment grain sizes and the presence of heavy minerals in the study area. Sediment sampling locations were identified at four points using shallow drilling techniques, specifically with a hand auger. The research methods employed include grain size analysis (granulometry) and grain counting analysis using polarized microscopy. The results indicate that the grain sizes in the study area range from coarse to fine sand. The sediment transport mechanism occurs as bedload for coarse-sized sediments and in suspension for fine-sized sediments. The mineralogical composition of sediments in the study area contains heavy minerals such as rutile, ilmenite, cassiterite, biotite, hematite, zircon, and chalcopyrite. The varied mineral content reflects a source material origin from acidic to intermediate igneous rocks and metamorphic rocks. This indicates a complex and dynamic geological history in the region.

The Law on Consuming Tritis from the Perspective of the Fatwa of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) of North Sumatra Province No. 5 of 2011 Concerning the Law on Tritis and Law No. 33 of 2014 of the Republic of Indonesia Regarding Halal Product Assurance (Case Study of the Muslim Karo Community from 2011-2022) This journal explores the traditions of the Muslim Karo community in consuming tritis in relation to the implementation of the MUI North Sumatra Province Fatwa No. 5 of 2011, which discusses the legal status of consuming tritis. Tritis, a traditional food derived from undigested cow food processed with certain spices, holds significant cultural meaning for the Muslim Karo community. This study aims to explain the practice of consuming tritis in the Karo region and how these practices align with the religious guidelines provided by the MUI fatwa. Using an empirical juridical research approach and case study methodology, this research includes observations, interviews, and document studies. Through qualitative data analysis and deductive reasoning, this study examines the consumption habits of the Muslim Karo community and evaluates them based on the fatwa's provisions. The findings show that the tradition of consuming tritis is deeply embedded in Karo culture, influenced by long-held beliefs about the health benefits of tritis and the ease of obtaining its ingredients. However, the legal status of consuming tritis, as outlined by the MUI Fatwa No. 5 of 2011, states that the practice is haram because it derives from animal materials prohibited under Islamic law. The implementation of this fatwa has been inadequate due to a lack of religious knowledge, insufficient fatwa socialization, and deeply rooted cultural factors.
Responsible Mining Governance: Minimizing Environmental Impact for a Better Future
Authors: Marilang
Published: January 2025

Mining management regulations aim to create new buildings that meet the needs of the community. Good mining management can transform Indonesia into the country with the strongest economy in the world through the implementation of the concept of Indonesia. The proposal aims to strengthen the character of the NKRI as a legitimate state and prosper its people through the exploitation of mineral resources. This study has already demonstrated Indonesia's responsibility for building communities in mining areas under Article 33 UUD 1945. The Mining Management System in the national legal system is intended to organize mining with a vision of the welfare state. This prompted him to strengthen the legislation as the basis for the validity of a national mining policy. Mining governance is framed in a legal framework of social justice as a manifestation of the welfare state. Mining activities that do not prosper the people will lose their legitimacy (Pancasila), constitutional (UUD 1945), and social. Total mining governance is based on the principle of sustainable development for the well-being of the people.
