Studi Peraturan Daerah Bidang Hubungan Industrial yang Bermanfaat Bagi Perlindungan Buruh/Pekerja di Kabupaten Sragen dan Kota Pekalongan
Authors: Yuliastuti Ari , Syarif Emi
Published: December 2022

Dalam bidang hubungan industrial ada hal-hal yang belum diatur secara jelas oleh peraturan perundang-undangan yang dibuat oleh pemerintah pusat, dan ada juga hal-hal yang diperintahkan oleh peraturan perundang-undangan untuk ditindaklanjuti oleh peraturan perundang-undangan lainnya tetapi tidak ditindaklanjuti. Dua hal tersebut menyebabkan ketidakpastian hukum, yang sebenarnya dapat diminimalisir dengan Peraturan Daerah (PERDA). Apabila PERDA dapat mengisi kekosongan hukum yang ada pada peraturan perundang-undangan yang dibuat oleh pemerintah pusat maka PERDA tersebut akan mempunyai kemanfaatan dan meningkatkan kepastian hukum. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui apakah PERDA tentang Ketenagakerjaan yang dibuat oleh Pemerintah Daerah Kabupaten Sragen dan Pemerintah Daerah Kota Pekalongan dapat mengisi kekosongan hukum di bidang hubungan industrial atau tidak. Metode yang digunakan adalah hukum yuridis sosiologis. Hasil penelitian menunjukan materi hubungan industrial yang diatur dalam PERDA tentang Ketenagakerjaan yang dibuat oleh Pemerintah Daerah Kabupaten Sragen dan Pemerintah Daerah Kota Pekalongan sudah diatur oleh Peraturan Perundang-undangan yang dibuat oleh pemerintah pusat. Kesimpulannya adalah Peraturan Daerah tentang ketenagakerjaan tersebut tidak memiliki kemanfaatan dan tidak meningkatkan kepastian hukum. Perlu dilakukan revisi PERDA seperti pada pemberian sanksi bagi perusahaan yang tidak melaksanakan kewajibannya sesuai peraturan perundang-undangan.

A nurse is a nurse despite of whatever gender you are. Mostly people think that men cannot give care to anyone as they are not compassionate. Good nursing care can only be given by females. But it’s not true. Nursing is a caring profession. You must be in touch with your own feelings and really like people. According to the General Social Survey, progressive attitudes towards gender roles has contributed to more men entering the nursing field.

The results of this research reveal the possibility of observing another type of pearlite. Formed in archaeological steel pieces a few years old. Perlite resulting from diffusion over time at room temperature. For this we show the metallographic structure of archaeological samples that have remained buried in the soils of Roman Baetica for 2,000 years. Diffusion does not stop at a given moment but takes place, undoing structures that seemed to be stable; this diffusion produces new equilibrium structures that we cannot evaluate due to lack of time. The research was carried out as part of the Archaeological Analogues project for the Spanish National Nuclear Waste Company (ENRESA), revealing the alternation of structures of hot-worked and normalized carbon steels. The microscopy used is Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The specimens, among many, two were selected because they have a good corrosion-free metallic core.

Authors: Stela de Camargo Da Dalt
Published: December 2022

O artigo analisa o processo de concessão do complexo esportivo do Pacaembu para a iniciativa privada, iniciado nos anos 1990, de modo a avaliar os aprendizados decorrentes de estudos, discussões e projetos desenvolvidos (e não concluídos) durante as gestões municipais de Paulo Maluf (1993-1996), Celso Pitta (1997-1999), José Serra e Gilberto Kassab (2005-2008), Gilberto Kassab (2009-2012) e Fernando Haddad (2013-2016). O objeto da nossa investigação é a concessão do Pacaembu enquanto fenômeno político, social, econômico e jurídico. Temos como principal objetivo, entender a rede de agentes e atores envolvidos e a produtividade desse conflito. Para realizar tal análise, nos debruçaremos sobre o acúmulo gerado pelas sucessivas tentativas e as “inovações” — ou estratégias — formuladas pela gestão de João Doria e Bruno Covas (PSDB/ 2017-2020) para destravar a concessão. Observando as estratégias e seus resultados, ponderaremos sobre sua eficácia na produção de uma realidade almejada pelo executivo municipal: a redução do Estado, também chamada de desestatização.

Climate change is defining structural changes that affect the economic activity of companies and of the financial system. At European level, banking supervisors and supervised entities are increasingly focusing on the issue of climate risks as they can affect the soundness and the stability of the financial system or interfere with monetary policy transmission channels and price stability. As became evident in 2022 with the launch of the ECB's first Climate stress test climate stress testing exercises are gaining greater and greater importance for assessing the resilience of the financial system. After presenting the regulatory framework, the Position Paper explores the transmission channels through which climate risks materialize in the "traditional" risks of banking, finance and insurance activities and, consequently, on specific balance sheet items. The analysis focuses on banking processes, such as credit and finance, and on specific business models such as specialized operators (challenger banks, leasing) and insurance intermediaries. A common element for climate risk assessment and evaluation is the need of forward-looking analyses, which requires the development and adoption of quantitative models based on climate scenarios, representative of the political and sectoral strategies that may occur in the future. In this context, the Position Paper discusses how to translate climate scenarios into macroeconomic and financial impacts based on a set of quantitative models that allow to project climate variables (e.g., GHG emissions price trajectories, temperatures, etc.), dependent on the assumed scenarios, as well as on the translation of the scenarios into macro-financial and sectoral variables projections.

Influence of All Sexual Orientations and Gender Identity Upon Work Authenticity through Satisfaction with Supervisor
Authors: Berbeco Paula , Blowers Jerimy , Gioia Joseph A. , Epstein Michael
Published: December 2022

The ability for workers to be authentic in the workplace benefits individuals and organizations alike. However, empirical studies examining the influences of employees’ satisfaction with a supervisor and authenticity are limited, especially for employees with identities such as LGBTQIA. Therefore, this exploratory study aimed to investigate state-based versus trait-based perceived work authenticity, satisfaction with a supervisor, and the influence of sexual orientation and gender identity within one Fortune 50 company in the United States. In addition, differences in perceived authenticity and satisfaction with a supervisor were assessed by dividing participants into two groups—one as LGBTQIA and the second as cisgender and heterosexual. Quantitative data was collected with a cross-sectional online survey assessing work authenticity, satisfaction with one’s supervisor, and demographic questions. The analysis and empirical tests included descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, independent t-tests, and general linear models. Findings from this research study indicated that authenticity correlates to satisfaction with one’s supervisor, and workers who identify as LGBTQIA report lower levels of authenticity, especially in self-alienation. Recommendations are provided regarding future research and improved organizational and human resource management practices for an authentic workforce or diversity and inclusion.

Unveiling the Peril of Protest Votes: An Enlightenment to Guide Political Behavior in Liberia
Authors: Nebo Sr. Dr. Ambrues Monboe
Published: December 2022

Considering the Liberian society as the contextual setting or background, this study interrogates protest votes as another form of political behavior. It employs the conceptual analysis approach categorized as one of the kinds of qualitative research methods. Using the frustration-aggression theory as its theoretical framework, the paper unveils the inherent peril or risk associated with protest votes unknown to registered voters. It sees protest votes as an emotional response due to the dissatisfaction with incumbent candidates to realize campaign promises. On the premise that frustration has the proclivity to affect logical reasoning, the paper equates dissatisfaction to frustration which has implications for protest votes. Based on this premise, which is empirical, the paper argues that evidenced by the clamor (“I am calling from the most abandoned district”, “2023 is coming”) ahead of the 2023 elections, the Liberian society might witness a cyclical or repeated phenomenon of previous election results prompting the increasing clamor. The paper concludes whether the argument proffered herein is empirical or not, it does not take away the fact that protest vote is an emotional decision of voters’ dissatisfaction. As an emotional response influenced by frustration, it has the proclivity to affect their judgment during elections. For this reason, the paper cautions those making the clamor to be mindful because the frustration behind the inclination may result in illogical judgment. And finally, the paper clarifies that this caution is not in any clever or smart way to support and endorse the reelection of the incumbent leadership or candidates.

Published: December 2022

The purpose of this paper is to accurately distinguish a series of ambiguities commonly encountered in human-computer interactionthrough smart system studied and cognitive computing methods, and then make reasonable predictions and responses. The method is as follows: first, make a basic classification of the various ambiguities encountered by cognitive computing and smart systems, then make a corresponding match for each type of ambiguity, and then apply the theory of smart system engineering to guide the translation or interpretation. The characteristic is that the process of prediction and decision-making is the integration of formal methods based on rules and statistics. The result is the discovery of an efficient way to resolve various ambiguities in a trinity of the natural language understanding, expert knowledge expression, and software pattern recognition. Its significance lies in the acceleration of the formation of the disruptive innovation system of the core basic invention of the new general information technology and its supporting software and hardware technologies, and the popularization of the Z standard of cultural gene system engineering practice. In the author’s opinion, the first meaning is to regard mind as an attribute of brain, and the second meaning is to further regard language, knowledge, and software as attributes of mind.

Published: December 2022

Nowadays, demand for customized products is increasing in the era of globalization and competitiveness. But this has burdened the supply chain (SC) performance and demands for the digitalization of its operation to enhance the transparency within its operation. As SCs are operating across regional boundaries, their dynamics need to be aligned with the paradigm of industry 4.0 technologies. Blockchain is one among those, which promises to enhance product traceability and bring transparency to its operation. But, the adoption of blockchain is not getting much attention, which indicates the need of an analysis of its drivers. As the avenues of information technology are getting attention, drivers of blockchain adoption are identified in this study. Furthermore, to reveal the mutual interrelationships between the drivers interpretive structural modelling-Cross-Impact Matrix Multiplication Applied to Classification (ISM-MICMAC) analysis is exercised. Driving factors are further analyzed by the Neutrosophic-based robust ranking, resulting in the primacy of the drivers. The outcomes of the present work substantially outrank the drivers, relative to its impact in the adoption of blockchain operations in SC performance systems. It provides a structured approach to managers for aligning SC operations with blockchain technology.

Authors: Pakasi Trevino  Aristarkus , Vidiawati Dhanasari
Published: December 2022

Objective. Tenants providing daily food in a big campus of approximately 50 thousand population are prone to an outbreak. This study aimed to observe the practice and compliance of food safety among the food providers.Methods. In a food safety training done for tenants in a university canteen, participants were asked to fill an online questionnaire, then randomly selected for food examination in the laboratory to look for E. coli and coliform bacteria.Results. Of the 500 tenants, 220 participated in the study but only 168 questionnaires were ready to be analysed. Male and female participants were approximately in similar composition, the same with food handlers and not food handler participants. Half of them finished high school; Higher education were observed among participants that were not food handlers. About ¾ of the participants were the owners who also worked as food handlers. The best food safety practice was washing hands compared to storing raw food, processing food, and storing processed food. Tenants who served uncooked food were significantly found to have higher E. coli, but no coliform containment found in the served food.Conclusion. We found the best food safety practice was hand washing. The uncooked food menu contained more pathogens than the cooked ones, and were not associated with the knowledge and practice of food safety.

Published: December 2022

Introduction. The ever-increasing global road traffic accidents is caused by several risk factors: human factors, vehicle factors, and road environmental factors. In the Philippines, 12,000 road users die annually due to road crashes and almost one-third are alcohol-related crashes.Objectives. This study aims to investigate the effects of suspected alcohol intoxication on the severity of injuries among drivers and passengers in a major urban region in the Philippines using the Metro Manila Accident Recording and Analysis System (MMARAS) of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority from 2005 to 2020.Methods. The Metro Manila Accident Recording and Analysis System (MMARAS) was used to determine the data on trends and association for alcohol-related road crashes, while descriptive and inferential statistics such as logistic and multinomial regression were used to determine trends and associations.Results. Suspected alcohol intoxication road crash cases in Metro Manila have decreased from 45 cases in 2005 to 31 cases in 2020. The year 2011 recorded the highest cases of alcohol-suspected road crashes. The years 2010, 2011, and 2012 recorded the highest number of driver’s death while 2005, 2006, 2014, and 2019 recorded higher deaths for passengers. Cars and motorcycles are the most commonly involved vehicles in alcohol-suspected road crashes, while Quezon City (n=307) and Marikina City (n=267) are the common places of incidence for drunk-driving accidents. On the other hand, alcohol intoxication increases the risk of driver’s death (OR=9.16; 95% CI [5.388-15.574]) and injury (OR=5.22; 95% CI [4.487-6.074]). While intoxicated, hitting an object (OR = 12.557; 95% CI [1.478-106.694]) and truck collisions (OR=7.176; 96% CI [1.261-40.817]) can increase the risk for driver’s death. Meanwhile, side swipe (OR=2.330; 95% CI [1.029-5.277]) and angle impact (OR= 7.972; 95% CI [1.804-35.227]), increase the odds for driver injuries.Conclusion. Suspected alcohol intoxication road crashes can be prevented; however, a collaborative effort is needed. The government is responsible for road safety education as well as effectively enforcing road safety-related laws, while the road users shall use the roadways responsibly.
Selective Separation of Tocol Homologues by Liquid-Liquid Extraction Using Choline-Based Deep Eutectic Solvents
Authors: Numan Abdul Hadi , Ng Mei Han
Published: December 2022

In this paper we examined the potential of choline-based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) for selective extraction of tocol homologues from crude palm oil (CPO) through liquid-liquid extraction (LLE). Distribution of tocol homologues (α-tocopherol, α-, β, γ-, and δ-tocotrienol) presence in CPO when subjected to DES-assisted LLE has not been fully understood in the past. The effect of increasing the amount of DES on the distribution and selectivity of were investigated. It was found that tocol homologues were distributed in the order of their hydrophilic power, with tocols of higher polarity distributed more into the stripping phase compared to the less polar tocols. Distribution coefficients for α-tocopherol, α-, β, γ-, and δ-tocotrienol were 7.8, 13.1, 19.8, 22.1 and 29.6, respectively, when equal weight of CPO and choline chloride-malonic acid eutectic mixture (DES1) were used. The distribution of each tocol homologues also increased with increasing DES1, due to the increase in polarity of the stripping phase that attracted more tocols. Selectivity of δ-tocotrienol, which is the most polar tocol, was always higher than other homologues (α-tocopherol: 3.81, α-tocotrienol: 2.22, β-tocotrienol: 1.50, γ-tocotrienol: 1.34). Role of hydrophilic power of the tocols using selected DESs to selectively separate tocol homologues established in this paper has a potential for palm oil industry as tocotrienols are better antioxidants, thus more favorable, than α-tocopherol.

HIGHLIGHTS

Tocopherols and tocotrienols in palm oil products are usually extracted for nutritional capsules and dietary products formulations using high-end techniques which are costly. Liquid-liquid extraction is a cheap technique which can be carried out at ambient conditions but with low selectivity

A series of choline-based eutectic solvents, a new generation of green chemicals, were formulated for targeted separation of, specifically five tocol homologues present in crude palm oil; α-tocopherol, α-, β-, γ-, and δ-tocotrienol

Unique combination of the eutectic solvents and liquid-liquid extraction resulted in selective separation of tocol homologues depending on the polarity of the tocols. Tocotrienols, having higher polarity and better antioxidative power than tocopherols, can be selectively extracted with the right deep eutectic solvents made from choline chloride, malonic acid, and citric acid

Os dados quantitativos foram tabulados em quadros e analisados por meio de estatística descritiva. Os dados qualitativos foram submetidos à análise de conteúdo em duas categorias. O cenário da assistência estudantil na UnirG revelou a existência de vários programas para apoio aos estudantes, porém desarticulados entre si, o que indica a necessidade de monitoramento e avaliação das ações de assistência estudantil desenvolvidas na instituição. Quanto aos motivos das desistências, os resultados não são conclusivos, pois muitos dos formulários de desligamento não traziam esse registro, o que impediu a coleta de importantes dados para a gestão da permanência. Entretanto a “não identificação e perda de interesse pelo curso” foi fator recorrente nos motivos apresentados por evadidos de diferentes cursos, o que reforça a importância da articulação dos setores para acompanhamento dos estudantes.
CONCEPÇÕES E CONCEITOS DO CURRÍCULO DA CIDADE NO CONTEXTO DA DISPUTA POR HEGEMONIA DA ESCOLA PÚBLICA
Authors: Abreu Claudia Barcelos de Moura , Monteiro Antônio
Published: December 2022

Este artigo discute as concepções e conceitos que fundamentam o Currículo da Cidade da Rede Municipal de Ensino de São Paulo, observando a intervenção da Comissão Permanente da Organização das Nações Unidas para a Educação, a Ciência e Cultura (UNESCO) e de organizações nacionais privadas (fundações e institutos) na reformulação do currículo, problematizando-o a partir da disputa por hegemonia do projeto educacional da escola pública, pautada na racionalidade técnica e econômica dos processos de ensino e aprendizagem e na formação de competências e habilidades dos estudantes. Objetiva-se, portanto, discutir como esse projeto educacional se materializa no Currículo da Cidade e quais as implicações no sentido de uma educação efetivamente pública e gratuita.

Published: December 2022

In this article efforts has being made to analyze effective content delivery in physical education. Our little investigation has shown that the present nature of physical education contents delivered to students in most secondary schools in Nigeria is in a state of quagmire. The question here is how will the students perform academically since the contents delivered are not up to physical education standards. The major concern of this paper is to relate some varying factors with contents delivery in physical education. These variable are curriculum contents ,availability of sport facilities, teachers training, time allotment, teacher supervisor and it rounds up with conclusion and recommendation.
Advanced multiparametric MRI-based scoring for isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation prediction of gliomas
Authors: Hosur Bharat , Ahuja Chirag Kamal , Singla Navneet , Gupta Kirti , Singh Paramjeet
Published: December 2022

Introduction

To propose an advanced multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based scoring system and evaluate its diagnostic accuracy with respect to the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status of gliomas.

Material and methods

This prospective observational study included 50 consecutive patients with suspected gliomas, enrolled for pre-operative MRI. The exclusion criteria were previous surgery, biopsy, or chemo/radiotherapy and contraindications to the gadolinium-based contrasts or MRI acquisition. A standardized brain-MRI protocol using a 3-Tesla machine and 16-channel head coil consisted of pre-contrast axial-T2WI, FLAIR, DTI, 3D-ASL perfusion, SWI, 3D-T1WI, and post-contrast axial-DSC perfusion followed by 3D-T1WI and MR spectroscopy. ROIs were drawn from the tumoral centre, periphery, and peritumoral oedema (3 ROIs for each) followed by normalization using the ROIs over the contralateral normal white matter. The cut-off values for the statistically significant (p <0.05) continuous variables were derived by drawing receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. A 7-point “glioma-score” was derived from the 3 categorical (T2/FLAIR-mismatch, contrast enhancement, and intratumoral susceptibility signals) and 4 continuous ROI-based variables (ADC, FA, ASL-CBF, and DSC-CBV).

Results

The predictability of IDH mutant status using the multiparametric advanced MRI-based glioma score was statistically significant (sensitivity = 69.23%, specificity = 95.65%, PPV = 94.74%, NPV = 73.33%). A glioma score of more than 4.5 out of 7 predicted the IDH-mutation status with higher specificity and sensitivity compared to each of the individual imaging variables.

Conclusions

The advanced multiparametric MRI-based glioma score can predict the IDH-mutation status with high statistical significance.
Assessment of aortic stiffness in computed tomography – methodology of radiological examination from 2000 to 2020
Authors: Hajdusianek Wojciech , Żórawik Aleksandra , Poręba Rafał , Gać Paweł
Published: December 2022

Introduction

Vascular elasticity may be a predictive factor of various diseases. Although stiffening is thought to be a natural consequence of ageing, it can be accelerated by a number of pathological conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, or renal diseases. Aim of the study was to discuss the methodology used to assess aortic stiffness, with particular emphasis on radiological examination.

Material and methods

The PubMed and Google Scholar databases were screened from inception to the year 2000 by 2 independent analysts initially working separately and then comparing their results.

Results

Assessment of stiffness can be divided into methods not requiring computed tomography scan, such as tonometry of carotid femoral pulse wave velocity, bioelectrical impedance analysis, and cardio ankle vascular index, and methods requiring it, such as multidetector row computed tomography – ECG gated, in which indexes such as aortic distensibility, aortic stiffness, and aortic compliance can be obtained with simultaneous calcification evaluation based on the Agatston score.

Discussion

Aortic stiffness was corelated with left ventricular afterload, prehypertension, coronary artery plaques, prediction of coronary artery diseases, bone demineralization, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, and diabetes mellitus.
"L'empire c'est nous"
Authors: Rispler Isabelle
Published: December 2022

Cet article s’intéresse aux acteurs non étatiques parmi les colons germanophones en Namibie et à leur relation avec le gouvernement colonial de l’Empire allemand (1884-1917). Il interroge par ailleurs les connexions entre germanophones en Namibie et en Afrique du Sud. La notion de « germanophones » (et non d’« Allemands ») est privilégiée pour rendre compte aussi bien de la multiplicité que de la coexistence de leurs identifications, celles-ci ayant largement dépassé le cadre strict de l’État-nation (russo-allemandes, suisse-allemandes, autrichiennes, reichsdeutsch, mais aussi métisses entre germanophones et locaux). En s’inspirant de l’approche méthodologique de l’histoire connectée, cet article soutient l’idée que les germanophones ont construit un empire culturel qui correspondait seulement en partie à la souveraineté officielle de l’Empire allemand.
Des coolies chinois pour Madagascar (1895-1902)
Authors: Guerassimoff Éric
Published: December 2022

Les travaux historiques consacrés à l’implantation chinoise à Madagascar éclairent assez peu l’arrivée des Chinois recrutés pour bâtir les infrastructures de la colonisation entre 1896 et 1902, car ceux-ci n’ont joué pratiquement aucun rôle dans la formation de la communauté chinoise de la Grande Île. L’organisation de ces convois présente néanmoins un intérêt de premier plan pour l’historien qui s’efforce de saisir les modalités des circulations de main-d’oeuvre à l’intérieur de l’Empire français, ainsi que les interactions avec les autres empires qu’elles ont suscitées. En dépit de sa brièveté, cet épisode offre la possibilité d’une étude des divers acteurs des circulations impériales – publics et privés, métropolitains, coloniaux et asiatiques –, des intermédiaires et des réseaux de sociabilité à l’oeuvre, ainsi que des conditions, supports et moyens permettant le déclenchement, le maintien ou le rejet de ces migrations de main-d’oeuvre.

Brown men, Black women, White anxiety

Les mariages mixtes entre migrants indiens et femmes autochtones en Afrique orientale britannique n’ont jamais fait l’objet d’une étude historique. À partir d’archives coloniales et de sources indiennes, cet article explore ce sujet peu étudié et met en évidence la disparité existante entre les préoccupations raciales de l’administration coloniale et l’expérience vécue des premiers pionniers indiens (d’anciens « engagés », des marchands et des fonctionnaires). Aux yeux des administrateurs coloniaux, soucieux de réguler la migration indienne au sein de l’Empire, les enfants nés de ces mariages mixtes remettaient en question la classification raciale sur laquelle les politiques coloniales et le contrôle des terres étaient fondés, tout en étant la preuve de l’installation permanente des Indiens dans la région. Par contraste, l’analyse d’histoires de familles indo-kenyanes suggère que des facteurs culturels tels que l’appartenance religieuse jouaient un rôle plus important que l’identité raciale dans l’acceptation de ces unions. Il apparaît aussi que les familles mixtes pouvaient, dans certains cas, mettre à mal les catégories raciales établies et contourner les mesures ségrégationnistes à leur avantage.
