Luminance distribution tests were carried out in accordance with ANSI requirements and infrared radiation for detection work.
Factors Affecting Beer Quality During Storage – A Review
Authors: Klimczak Krystian , Cioch-Skoneczny Monika , Poreda Aleksander
Published: September 2024

Fermented beverages such as beer are known for their relatively long shelf life. However, the main factor limiting their shelf life is the qualitative changes that occur during storage. From the moment the beer is produced, its characteristics, such as taste, aroma, and colloidal stability undergo continuous change. The intensity of these changes depends on the type of beer, storage conditions, and length of storage. While some degree of ageing can have a positive influence on sensory characteristics of a beer, beer stalling is seen as a significant problem. As it is currently understood, beer ageing is mainly caused by the formation of stalling aldehydes. At the same time, compounds which bestow the beer its flavour, such as esters, terpenes, and iso-α-acids undergo qualitative and quantitative changes. As a result, aroma discriminants such as freshness, fruitiness or florality are often lost over time. In their place, aromas described as ribes, cardboard, bread-like, honey-like or sherry-like appear. The article aims to present the changes in beer sensorial, physicochemical, and microbiological characteristics during storage and the factors that affect beer quality during ageing The article also describes the variables which according to the current literature, may alter the flavour stability of a beer.

Authors: Djaoudene Ouarda , Bachir-Bey Mostapha , Djebari Sabrina
Published: September 2024

The fruits and their derivatives are products known for their excellent energy intake and their beneficial health effects. Jams are an efficient and tasty way of fruit preservation. Jam quality is greatly influenced by storage conditions like temperature and duration. The current investigation aimed to study the evaluation changes of physicochemical characteristics (total sugars (TS), free amino acids (FAA), hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), and ascorbic acid (AA)), phytochemical composition (carotenoid, total phenolic, and flavonoid contents), and antioxidant ability (DPPH and ferric reducing power) of two brands of commercial apple jam during daily conditions of use. The jams were assessed during the first 30 days after first opening the tins, with testing the effect of 25°C (ambient temperature) and 35°C (hot summer temperature). The findings show that after a month of storage at 25 and 35°C, the decreasing levels for samples were respectively 11-13% (S1) and 12-16% (S2) for TS, 63-68% (S1), and 57-63% (S2) for FAA, 6-7% (S1) and 4-5% (S2) for AA; whereas, HMF revealed increases of 127-143% (S1) and 186-232% (S2). Likewise, significant losses of bioactive substances and antioxidant capacity have been observed for jam samples. Based on the current findings, it can be concluded that storing industrial apple jam under daily conditions of use leads to significant loss of quality and antioxidant parameters. For this reason, it is recommended to consume the apple jam as soon as possible after opening the tin and to store it at relatively low temperatures during use.
The Influence of Consumer Motivation on Engagement with Sports Club Social Media: An Intrinsic and Extrinsic Analysis
Authors: Trkulja Željka Marčinko , Primorac Dinko , Martinčević Ivana
Published: September 2024

Background

Understanding the motivations behind consumer engagement on sports club social media can help clubs and marketers tailor their strategies to better connect with fans, fostering deeper loyalty and more meaningful interactions. By identifying what drives fans to engage—whether it is a genuine love for the brand or the pursuit of rewards—clubs can create more targeted content that not only boosts engagement but also strengthens the overall fan experience and community.

Objectives

This study explores the impact of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on consumer engagement with sports club social media, utilising the theoretical framework of Uses and Gratifications Theory. Methods/Approach: Using structural equation modelling and network analysis, different motivational factors, such as internal and external motivation, were analysed to determine their influence on engagement behaviours.

Results

The findings reveal that both intrinsic motivations (e.g., personal identity, entertainment, and brand love) and extrinsic motivations (e.g., rewards, empowerment, and social interaction) significantly affect consumer engagement. Intrinsic motivations were strong predictors of high-quality engagement behaviours, including meaningful commenting and active participation in discussions. In contrast, extrinsic motivations, particularly the role of social interaction, were more associated with the frequency of posting and sharing content.

Conclusions

These results underscore the importance of understanding the diverse motivational drivers behind consumer interactions with sports club social media to enhance fan engagement and loyalty.
Influence of Demand on Supplier Selection Using the Analytic Hierarchy Process: A Case Study Validation in the Textile Industry
Authors: Ramos Bruna , Silva João , Vila-Chã António , Azevedo Henrique , Ramos João , Ferreira Ana Cristina
Published: September 2024

Background

Supplier selection has emerged as an important activity regarding strategic purchasing with implications for the operational efficiency of both organisations and supply chains. Given the need to evaluate both qualitative and quantitative criteria for different supply alternatives, the decision-making process became more complex.

Objectives

In the present work, an adapted Analytic Hierarchy Process model is proposed for supplier selection, which is being validated within the context of a textile company. The multi-criteria decision support model was coded in Python and encompasses criteria, cost, quality, delivery time, sustainability, and history.

Methods/Approach

This model allocates weights to individual suppliers based on the diverse criteria considered. Four alternatives were considered as the chemical fabric dyeing pigment suppliers. Two different scenarios were considered to understand the influence of demand on the supplier selection problem.

Results

The cost is the most valued criterion in the supplier selection (0.493 for Scenario 1 and 0.426 for Scenario 2). The second most important criterion for regular demand is quality (0.224), whereas, for the increased demand scenario, delivery time (0.301) is the second most impactful criterion.

Conclusions

The application of the AHP for both tested scenarios resulted in a different priority, highlighting the adjustment capacity of the implemented model to different search parameterisations.
How did Hotels Measure Performance during Covid-19? Insights from Central and Eastern Europe
Authors: Jugović Tijana , Maričić Milica
Published: September 2024

Background

One of the industries that was among the most disrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic was the tourism industry. Hotel owners and managers needed guidelines on how to combat the “new normal” and enable the sustainable economic operation of the hotels they managed.

Objectives

This paper addresses the problem of identifying performance management (PM) indicators hotel managers turned to during the pandemic and the factors which motivated them to do so.

Methods/Approach

Managers of hotels in winter destinations in Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina were surveyed on the performance measures they implemented in the hotels they managed.

Results

The results of the research show that in the era of the Covid-19 pandemic, hotel managers relied on both organisational and operational measures but found operational indicators more useful. The characteristics of managers, such as business position in the hotel, age, level of education and level of work experience, are related to the choice of indicators and levels of their implementation. Also, the hotel’s characteristics, such as size, revenue, and growth rate, proved to have an impact on the level of PM indicators measured.

Conclusions

In times of crises, such as pandemics, organisational PM indicators that rely mainly on financial results are not as useful as operational ones. The reliance on operational measures of indicators increased the resilience of hotels.
Agroforestry Contribution to Native Woody Species Conservation, Carbon Sequestration, and Livelihood Benefits in Ethiopia: A Systematic Review
Authors: Getachew Goremsu , Mulatu Abu
Published: September 2024

The conservation of endangered native species and climate change are currently the two most pressing environmental problems on the planet. Therefore, the general objective of the review was to synthesize evidence of the contributions of agroforestry systems to the conservation of native species, carbon sequestration, and livelihood benefits in Ethiopia. A total of 104 publications from 2000 to 2024 publication years were used to provide available evidence and research gaps on agroforestry contribution to native species conservation (n=21), carbon sequestration (n=33), and livelihood benefits (n=35) in Ethiopia. Furthermore, 38 papers from other parts of the world were used to support ideas and relevant evidence linked to the title. The review’s findings confirm that agroforestry can serve as in-situ conservation for endangered native species including Cordia africana Lam., Hagenia abyssinica (Bruce) J.F. Gmel., Acacia abyssinica Hochst. ex Benth, Croton macrostachyus Hochst. ex Delile, Ficus sur Forssk and Faidherbia albida (Delile) A. Chev. The review systematic review indicated that agroforestry systems store an average of 40.04 ± 10.4 Mg C ha −1 in biomass and 68.9 ± 9.9 Mg C ha−1 in soil in Ethiopia. Hence, the above-ground carbon was highest for coffee-based agroforestry (17.12 ± 6.3 Mg ha−1) followed by homegarden (16.6 ± 3.2 3 Mg ha−1) and woodlot (7.1 ± 1.09 Mg ha−1). Fuelwood, food, fodder, income, timber, fruits, and poles for construction were the main benefits of livelihood; which have been reported in 37, 30, 26, 25, 23, and 20,18 published articles, respectively. Empirical studies show that an agroforestry system, which can significantly reduce the vulnerabilities of households and store a large amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, is an important strategy for climate adaptation and mitigation. Moreover, further scientific research on agroforestry on the sustainability of agroforestry is needed from responsible bodies in Ethiopia.
Natural Processes in the Area of the Former Kakhovske Reservoir After the Destruction of the Kakhovka HPP
Authors: Vyshnevskyi Viktor І. , Shevchuk Serhii А.
Published: September 2024

The results of the studies devoted to the consequences of the Kakhovka dam destruction on June 6, 2023 in the course of the Russia-Ukraine war are presented. After the accident, the Kakhovske reservoir, which was the largest by volume on the Dnipro River, practically disappeared. It has turned into the network of river branches and lakes that do not compare with the former reservoir.

Currently, the conditions on the territory of the former reservoir have approached those observed in natural conditions. To some extent, they depend on the water discharge of the Dnipro River, more exactly, on the water discharge of the Dnipro HPP located upstream. In the conditions of large water runoff, the large part of the former Kakhovske reservoir is covered with water.

An unusual natural phenomenon of the area of the former reservoir is very rapid overgrowth, primarily by willow. A year after the accident, its height in places which is rich in organic sediments exceeded 4 meters. At the same time, the size of the trees on the bottom covered by sands is much smaller. Today, a large area of the former reservoir looks like a dense forest.
Construction and Reconstruction of the Language System
Authors: Dolník Juraj
Published: September 2024

This study loosely follows on the brilliant condensed interpretations of Jan Kořenský on the status of speech (in the sense of parole) and its assumptions (in the sense of langue) from the position of subject-object noetics. The author focuses on the question of what real language is. He is concerned with whether langue is only a social reality (exists only in social interactions) or also a cognitive reality (exists in some way in the cognition of the communicators). In his interpretation of langue, it appears as a rational language system, against which he sets a practical language system with the question of what reality these systems represent. He is reluctant to accept the view that langue is somehow present in a practical linguistic system. He takes the position that while a rational language system is only a reality constructed by the mind (a construct), a practical language system is a reality that arose from the gradual coordination of communicative activities of social subjects, which introduced flexible and stable practical rules without having to create a system in the sense of langue, functioning as a presuppositional basis of speech. He illuminates these systems from the point of view of the basic question of the theory of knowledge connected with the understanding of truth, and he points out their practical usefulness. He starts from the thesis that man is a construction-reconstruction being, and aims to support the rehabilitation of correspondence truth.
Artificial Intelligence: Medium or Subject? On the 10th Anniversary of the Publication of the Article “Theory of New Media and the Transformation of a Medium into a Subject?”
Authors: Bennett Ľudmila Lacková
Published: September 2024

On the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the publication of the article “Theory of new media and the transformation of a medium into a subject?” by Jan Kořenský, one of the most influential Czech linguists, it is important to evaluate his influence and visionary ideas that remain relevant even today. In his 2014 article, Kořenský predicted fundamental changes caused by technological progress, where new communication technologies change their role from mere means to acting entities with profound impacts on society. When he made these predictions, ocial networks such as Facebook and Instagram were examples of technologies affecting interpersonal relationships and the identity of users. Today, a decade later, the debate is shifting to artificial intelligence, raising questions about the future of work and the role of humanity. This article not only reflects Kořensky’s analysis of technological change, but also explores the current concerns and potential impacts of AI on society, science, and ethics. Kořenský’s theories remain an inspiration not only for linguists, but also for the general public dealing with the influence of technology on our reality.
Jan Kořenský as a Proponent of Linguistic Pragmatics in Czechoslovak Linguistics
Authors: Hirschová Milada
Published: September 2024

In the work of Jan Kořenský, pragmatic topics were mentioned as early as in 1970s, first without being termed explicitly. In the most extensive and elaborated version, Kořenský presented his concept of relations among semantics, grammar and pragmatics in the 1984 book Konstrukce gramatiky ze sémantické báze (Construing grammar on the basis of semantics). In the book, a pragmatic component (pragmatic dimension) is included in the model of grammar as a factor pertaining to the functional properties of lexical and grammatical variables. Also, Kořenský introduced an original approach towards pragmatic interpretation of utterances (semantics of “being said“) which can be considered an inspiration for the concept of logophoricity in discourse (a phenomenon broader than the traditional notion of “reported speech“).
Dynamical Systems in the Work of Jan Kořenský: Notes on the Solution of One of His Hypotheses
Authors: Zámečník Lukáš
Published: September 2024

In the linguistic work of Jan Kořenský we find methodological inspiration from the theory of dynamical systems. The aim of this paper is to trace this inspiration in Kořenskýʼs key texts and to relate this conceptual borrowing to the time-specific (in the Czech environment, especially in the 1990s) interdisciplinary links between the humanities and the natural sciences. The text recalls Kořenskýʼs hypothesis about the relationship between order and chaos and the transformation of this central conceptual pair in the course of the development of the sciences at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries.

Micromanagementul și stilurile de leadership: împiedică potențialul sau facilitează succesul?
Authors: Gavrilă Maria Ruxandra , Gal Silvia Melania
Published: September 2024

Scopul acestei lucrări este de a determina și de a analiza legătura dintre stilurile de leadership (autoritar, democratic, laissez-faire) și fenomenul micromanagementului (MM) asupra motivației, performanței și autonomiei în mediul organizațional. În cadrul acestei cercetări, au participat un număr de 252 de respondenți, dintre care 71,8% ocupă funcții de execuție și 28,2 % ocupă funcții de conducere. Rezultatele au arătat faptul că fenomenul MM este prezent în organizații și totodată influențează stilurile de leadership autoritar și democratic, însă în cazul stilului laissez-faire, acesta nu este influențat. De asemenea, în cadrul cercetării au fost abordate efectele stilurilor de leadership asupra motivării, performanței și autonomiei. Astfel, un lider democratic reușește să influențeze în mai mare măsură aceste efecte, spre deosebire de liderii autoritari sau laissez-faire. Aceste rezultate pot fi utile pentru organizații, oferind informații despre conceptul de micromanagement și în același timp cum este aplicat de către lideri.

Acesta a fost completat de un colectiv de 133 de respondenți. Rezultatele au confirmat parțial ipotezele. Astfel, organizațiile oferă suport angajaților, ceea ce se reflectă în nivelul sănătății mintale al acestora. Studiul subliniază faptul că rezultatele pot fi influențate de o diversitate de factori din cadrul organizațional.
Dincolo de organigramă: impactul relațiilor informale asupra performanței echipelor
Authors: Sava-Musteață Cela
Published: September 2024

Lucrarea de față cercetează influența relațiilor informale asupra performanței unei echipe, explorând conceptul de performanță și identificând motivele pentru care relațiile dintre membrii echipei au o influență mai semnificativă decât recompensele financiare sau de altă natură. Performanța unei echipe se referă la capacitatea sa de a atinge obiectivele stabilite, de a livra rezultate de calitate și de a se adapta eficient la schimbările din mediul său de lucru. În comparație cu recompensele, care pot oferi doar motivație externă temporară, relațiile informale întăresc legăturile interpersonale și creează un climat de angajament și implicare continuă în echipă, pe termen mediu și lung. Astfel, investirea în dezvoltarea și îmbunătățirea relațiilor informale poate avea un impact mai profund și mai durabil asupra performanței echipei. Obiectivul principal al acestui studiu este de a elabora un set de metode și de bune practici, ce pot fi implementate cu ușurință în orice tip de echipă și care nu necesită volume considerabile de timp pentru avea rezultate, ori consum de resurse financiare sau materiale pentru a fi aplicate.

Published: September 2024

The introduction of the Arduino-based Internet Of Things (IOT) system at Brebes 1 Public High School helped the students there to develop the system. We are here to introduce students to how Arduino functions in today's modern era. Apart from the function, we also introduce how Arduino works and how to operate Arduino in a school environment. As an example that can be used by Arduino in the school environment is attendance by detecting faces or you can use the retina of the eye. There are many examples that can be taken from case studies on the use of Arduino which can be applied to the Brebes 1 Public High School school environment.
The introduction of Arduino has many benefits for students at the school, because students can have many ideas that can be developed to make their school more modern or they can also make works which will then be published to introduce their school to the wider community. . Students can have a lot of ideas that they will develop and also because the equipment used in making the Arduino system is very affordable. Apart from the affordable price, Arduino is also not difficult to find equipment, because there are lots of Arduino equipment that are widely sold, both offline in computer stores or even online, which are sold freely.

The Accuracy of English Grammatical Morpheme Orders among Chinese EFL Learners and Instructor Interventions
Authors: Wang Xianyuan , Lau Su Kia , Chew Fong Peng , Saeed Murad Abdu , Cao Xuejin
Published: September 2024

In the domain of first and second language (L1/L2) acquisition, Morpheme Order Studies (MOS) encapsulate a body of influential research. This study specifically aimed to (1) assess the accuracy of nine grammatical morphemes used by Chinese learners of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) in their compositions, (2) investigate the factors affecting the accurate use of these morphemes among Chinese EFL learners, and (3) explore the interventions implemented by their instructors to assist the Chinese EFL learners in accurately using these intricate grammatical constructs. Employing the Target-Like Use methodology, the data were collected from the essays of 108 high school learners in Kunming, Yunnan, China, to ascertain the order of their accuracy in using these morphemes. Subsequently, a semi-structured interview was conducted with five EFL instructors and 15 tested learners to delve into the factors influencing their proficiency with specific complex morphemes and the application of instructional interventions used by the instructors. The findings of the study revealed that the learners did not consistently adhere to Krashen’s hypothesized natural order; rather, they exhibited idiosyncratic acquisition patterns. Particularly, it was noteworthy that there was a relatively low accuracy observed in the usage of certain morphemes, such as irregular past and 3rd person singular –s (features absent in the learners’ native language). Furthermore, factors contributing to the diminished accuracy of these specific morphemes include the learners’ mother tongue interference in their use of these morphemes, syntactic and semantic complexities, motivational factors, environmental factors, and limited output of specific morphemes. Additionally, the research uncovered various interventions such as peer review, storytelling, and incorporating songs employed by the EFL instructors to assist the Chinese EFL learners in using these challenging grammatical morphemes correctly. This study provides valuable insights for EFL students, instructors, curriculum developers, and textbook editors.
Towards an Empirical Understanding of membawa ‘bring’: Corpus Insights into Indonesian Light Verb Constructions
Authors: Nugraha Danang Satria , Vincze Veronika
Published: September 2024

This study analyzes the usage of the verb membawa (lit. bring) in Indonesian light verb constructions (LVCs). LVCs are ubiquitous in many agglutinative languages, including Indonesian. These constructions offer a unique way of combining a semantically light verb, which lacks inherent meaning, with another element to convey a specific concept. For instance, membawa pesan (lit. bring a message), membawa kemenangan (lit. bring a victory), membawa perasaan (lit. bring the feeling), membawa perubahan (lit. bring the change), amongst others. This study utilized corpus-based techniques to conduct a quantitative and qualitative analysis of 150 LVCs from the Indonesian-Leipzig Corpora Collection (ILCC) corpus. The findings of the study revealed three key points. Firstly, LVCs demonstrated a wide range of morphological and semantic usage, including primary and advanced areas, synonymic pair, and noun core proposition areas. Secondly, the morphosemantic relationships between core nouns in LVCs could be identified in the relations between base-abstract (0.15), base-concrete (0.37), affixed-abstract (0.36), and affixed-concrete (0.13). Thirdly, constructions with synonymic pairs dominated the total LVCs (0.75). However, all LVCs demonstrated the core proposition of the noun, which varied between ‘peoples’ (0.23), ‘materials’ (0.19), ‘objects’ (0.13), ‘qualities’ (0.17), ‘actions’ (0.11), and ‘processes’ (0.17). The findings suggest that LVCs in Indonesian are not merely syntactic constructions but rather reflect the intricate relationships between the verb and the noun, which can be analyzed in terms of their semantic and morphological properties. These findings can be applied to areas such as machine translation and computational linguistics, where a comprehensive understanding of LVCs is essential for accurate and effective language processing. Further corpus-based study could focus on analyzing the syntax and discourse functions of LVCs membawa.
Indonesian Women in Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia (KBBI) (1988–2018): A Lexicographic Corpus
Authors: Febrina Ria , Suhandano  , Sutrisno Adi
Published: September 2024

Indonesian women have undergone significant changes over time, as reflected in the vocabulary of the Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia (KBBI). This study aims to describe the representation of Indonesian women in the KBBI and to explain the development of their social and cultural lives over 30 years (1988–2018). The research employs a descriptive-qualitative approach by collecting data through the extraction of entries, definitions, compound words, and proverbs containing the terms “perempuan” (woman) and “wanita” (lady) from two printed editions of the KBBI: the first edition (1988) and the fifth edition (2018). Data analysis was conducted using Sketch Engine to analyze 1,381,578 tokens, and the findings revealed 1,148 collocations and concordances related to the terms “perempuan” and “wanita.” The results indicate that the study of Indonesian women within a linguistic corpus offers insights into their contributions over 30 years across various fields such as religion, military, economy, journalism, health, politics, arts and culture, and beauty. Through corpus-lexicography studies, the portrayal of Indonesian women in the dictionary has challenged patriarchal views that traditionally positioned women as inferior to men. This research highlights the importance of recognizing the representation of women in the social dynamics of Indonesian society. It offers a significant contribution to the broader field of Indonesia lexicography studies by examining how women are represented in dictionary entries.
Por la ciudad del fuego
Authors: Collazos Córdoba Edgard
Published: September 2024

Por la ciudad del fuego es un verso tomado de un terceto que describe el paso de Dante y Virgilio por un espacio del Infierno, cuando los poetas peregrinos avanzan entre una lluvia de fuego. Edgard Collazos Córdoba, al escoger este verso como título del presente libro, pretende desde su inicio crear en el lector la percepción de sufrimiento no solo de las almas que padecen el castigo, también la odisea de los dos poetas; la de Virgilio, por conducir a Dante hacia el camino correcto, y la de Dante, por alcanzar el camino que lo llevará hacía el empíreo, hacia Beatriz y hacia la salvación. Este libro explica la controvertida aventura que narra la Divina comedia imaginada por un genio llamado Dante Alighieri, solo comparable con Cervantes y Shakespeare; es vital para aquellos lectores que deseen conocer la obra del poeta florentino. Sus páginas están pobladas de necesaria información sobre ese periodo que fue llamado la Edad Media. En este libro no sobra una palabra, cada frase es información para entender la que es quizás una de las maravillas creacionales de la cultura de Occidente.

This article presents a comparative study exploring the foundations of informed consent, legal capacity, privacy, and dignity in medical law across different jurisdictions. The concept of informed consent is fundamental to medical practice and is rooted in the principle of patient autonomy. Legal capacity, on the other hand, refers to an individual's ability to make decisions about their own healthcare and is often closely linked to informed consent. Privacy and dignity are also crucial aspects of medical law, protecting the rights and autonomy of patients. Through a comparative analysis of laws and regulations in various countries, this study examines the legal frameworks surrounding informed consent, legal capacity, privacy, and dignity in medical practice. The research aims to identify common principles and differences in the implementation of these concepts, addressing potential challenges and areas for improvement. By shedding light on the foundations of informed consent, legal capacity, privacy, and dignity in medical law, this study contributes to a better understanding of the rights and responsibilities of patients and healthcare professionals. The findings may inform future developments in medical law and practice, promoting ethical and respectful treatment of patients and upholding their rights to autonomy and dignity.

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Assisted Cardiac Interventions
Authors: Gupta Vivek , Ramanathan K. R.
Published: September 2024

The use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for management of critically ill patients has significantly increased in the recent past due to technological progress and increased experience with safe ECMO runs. The use of venoarterial (VA) ECMO during high risk interventional cardiology procedures ensure adequate cardiac output and other organ perfusion as well. The use of elective VA ECMO support during procedure allow interventionists to perform procedure safely and comfortably, moreover the support may be extended during post-procedural period in case of cardiogenic shock or arrhythmia. VA ECMO may also be instituted in emergent situations when conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is ineffective to achieve return of spontaneous circulation. The various procedures with high risk potential due to anatomical complexity, haemodynamic decompensation or preexisting clinical condition may require mechanical circulatory support. These include percutaneous coronary interventions, Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), complex congenital anamoly or electrophysiological procedures. However an integrated team approach with appropriate communication is vital among interventional cardiologist, ECMO specialist, cardiac surgeon, cardiac anaesthesiologist and perfusionist for a successful outcome.

AbstrakTujuan dilakukannya penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui penerapan prinsip akuntabilitas Manajemen Berbasis Sekolah (MBS) dalam mendukung pengelolaan keuangan sekolah dan untuk menemukan masalah yang perlu diatasi agar praktik pengelolaan keuangan sekolah menjadi lebih baik. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Systematic Literature Review (SLR) dengan menggunakan model PRISMA. Dari 25 artikel yang diidentifikasi, 15 artikel memenuhi syarat untuk disintesis dan dianalisis. Adapun hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konsep MBS memiliki tiga karakteristik utama: kemandirian, keadilan, dan keterbukaan. Prinsip-prinsip MBS, seperti kemitraan, partisipatif, efisiensi, dan akuntabilitas, memberikan landasan bagi pengelolaan sekolah yang efektif. Implementasi prinsip akuntabilitas dalam pengelolaan keuangan sekolah merupakan hal yang penting, yang melibatkan transparansi, standar kinerja, dan partisipasi. Meskipun penerapan prinsip akuntabilitas memiliki dampak positif pada efektivitas pengelolaan keuangan sekolah, namun masih timbul tantangan yang perlu diatasi, seperti kurangnya pertanggungjawaban yang efektif dan keterlibatan pengawas yang kurang memadai.AbstractThe purpose of this study is to find out how the principle of accountability in School-Based Management (SBM) is used to support school financial management and to find problems that need to be addressed to improve school financial management practices. The research method used was a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) using the PRISMA model. Of the 25 articles identified, 17 articles were eligible for synthesis and analysis. The results show that the concept of SBM has three main characteristics: independence, equity, and openness. The principles of SBM, such as partnership, participation, efficiency, and accountability, provide the foundation for effective school management.
