Authors: Nasution Mario Zulfa , Adwimurti Yudhistira , Rahmani Hani Fitria
Published: January 2025

This study aims to analyze the effect of capital structure, leverage, and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) on firm value, as well as the moderating role of media exposure in cyclical and non-cyclical companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2023. Using a quantitative research design with a cross-sectional approach, this study took a sample of 150 companies through a purposive sampling method. Data analysis was carried out using multiple linear regression with moderating variables. The results of the study indicate that capital structure and ESG have a significant positive effect on firm value, while leverage has a significant negative effect. Media exposure is proven to significantly moderate the relationship between all independent variables and firm value. These findings emphasize the importance of optimizing capital structure, prudent leverage management, and implementing good ESG practices in increasing firm value. The moderating role of media exposure highlights the importance of a company's communication strategy in shaping public and investor perceptions. The implications of this study provide valuable insights for company managers in making strategic decisions and for investors in evaluating investment prospects in the Indonesian capital market.

In the business world, capital and profitability are two crucial factors that affect the sustainability and growth of a company. Capital functions as a resource used to start and run a company's operations. This study aims to measure the level of PT. Maxis Paragon's ability to manage working capital to meet short-term obligations using the liquidity ratio, analyze the level of working capital turnover in operational activities through the activity ratio, and assess the effectiveness of working capital use in generating business profitability using the profitability ratio. The research method used is a quantitative approach with descriptive analysis. The results of the study indicate that the management of PT. Maxis Paragon's working capital during the 2019–2023 period experienced an unhealthy condition based on the analysis of the Current Ratio and Quick Ratio. The company needs to improve working capital management, especially in terms of inventory and receivables management, and identify the causes of the decline in performance in 2023. From an activity ratio perspective, the management of receivables and inventory during this period was considered poor, far below industry standards. Despite improvements in inventory management through 2022, performance declined again in 2023. In addition, profitability ratio analysis shows that the company's profitability, as measured by Net Income and Return on Equity (ROE), is at a low level. To increase returns to shareholders, an in-depth evaluation of the company's operations and financial strategy is needed.

Published: January 2025

The taxonomic identity of Iberus alonensis has traditionally been surrounded by great controversy because under this name a large number of similarly-shaped populations distributed over a vast geographical area and probably belonging to different species have been subsumed. The publication of the first phylogenetic study on the genus Iberus began to unravel the alonensis complex, defining other likely new lineages. One of them is I. alonensis-like 02, a provisional name assigned to the traditional populations of I. alonensis from Andalusia (southern Spain) but lacks sufficient biogeographic support to be formally defined as a new species. In this study, the potential distribution area of I. alonensis-like 02 is thoroughly explored through systematic sampling. The resulting geographical mapping together with a morphometric study and new molecular evidence allow us to confirm the historical name I. alonensis rhodopeplus as a valid taxonomic denomination which we divide into two cryptic subspecies named I. rhodopeplus rhodopeplus and I. rhodopeplus bastetanus ssp. nov. Besides, the subspecies I. alonensis labiatus has to be renamed. Our findings contribute to revealing the species complex involved under the classic name I. alonensis and to improving our knowledge on the cryptic nature of numerous taxa within the genus Iberus.

Published: January 2025

Background: Late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) is a rare, autosomal recessive metabolic disorder that is heterogeneous in disease presentation and progression. People with LOPD report a significantly lower physical, psychological, and social quality of life (QoL) than the general population.

Objectives: This study investigated how individuals’ self-reported LOPD status (improving, stable, declining) relates to their QoL. Participant experiences such as use of mobility or ventilation aids, caregivers, symptomology, and daily life impacts were also characterized.

Methods: A 2-part observational study was conducted online between October and December 2023 using the 36-item short-form tool (SF-36) and a survey. Adults with LOPD (N=41) from Australia, France, Italy, and the Netherlands were recruited.

Results: Participants reporting “declining” LOPD status (56%) had lower physical functioning SF-36 scores than those reporting as “stable” or “improving.” Those self-reporting as stable or improving often described an acceptance of declining health in their responses. Physical functioning scores were generally stable in respondents who had been receiving enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) for 1-15 years, but those who had received ERT for >15 years had lower scores. Requiring ventilation and mobility aids had additive negative impacts on physical functioning. Difficulty swallowing, speaking, and scoliosis were the most burdensome symptoms reported by those on ERT for >15–25 years.

Discussion: These results demonstrate the humanistic burden of LOPD; through declining physical functioning SF-36 scores over increasing time and increased use of aids, and also through factors related to self-reported LOPD status (where declining status was associated with lower scores) and symptomology variances. Taken holistically, these areas are valuable to explore when informing optimized care. Among a largely declining cohort, even those not self-reporting decline often assumed future deterioration, highlighting the need for improved therapies and the potential to initiate or switch ERT based on evolving symptomology and daily life impacts.

Conclusion: Our results indicate that progressing LOPD leads to loss of QoL in ways that relate to time, use of aids, evolving symptomology, and the patient’s own perspective. A holistic approach to assessing the individual can help ensure relevant factors are investigated and held in balance, supporting optimized care.

Indonesia's coffee consumption is among the largest in the world, ranking 5th after Japan, which reaches 7.39 million. The growth of coffee shops corresponds with the increase in coffee waste, particularly coffee grounds, which are discarded, reaching up to 90% without being reused. Coffee grounds eventually become waste; thus, they are utilized as a material for soap making by recycling coffee grounds waste. The research aims to determine the hedonic test results or the preference level of soap made from coffee grounds waste. The hedonic test results will be calculated using a non-factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD) consisting of 4 treatments: P0 = control, P1 = 10 grams of coffee grounds, P2 = 25 grams of coffee grounds, and P3 = 50 grams of coffee grounds. The hedonic test results show that Hypothesis H1 is accepted for the most preferred color parameter, which is the P0 treatment with an average of 3.79b, the highest aroma average is the P2 treatment with 3.35b, the highest texture average is the P2 treatment with 4.29c, the highest foam quantity average is the P3 treatment with 3.99b, the highest moisture average is the P3 treatment with 3.93b, and the highest overall average is the P2 treatment with 3.99b because coffee grounds significantly affect the soap made from coffee grounds waste.

In the digital age, unauthorized access and source code exposure are escalating concerns, posing significant threats to software security and intellectual property. These vulnerabilities risk data integrity and enable potential theft of proprietary algorithms, leading to business and competitive disadvantages. Traditional software distribution methods are increasingly susceptible to tampering, compromising code security and opening opportunities for exploitation. Moreover, enforcing valid software licensing proves challenging, allowing misuse and unauthorized redistribution, which contributes to revenue loss and undermines intellectual property rights.

Current methods fall short in effectively detecting unauthorized access and unauthorized usage, necessitating more robust solutions. This paper explores new strategies for secure software distribution, enhanced licensing enforcement, and frameworks designed to protect intellectual assets from tampering and misuse.

The rapid advancements in technology have led to the development of intelligent systems that assist in daily activities, with one key area being Crime Detection. This task involves analyzing time-series data to classify human actions, and the use of video datasets has become crucial for recognizing complex activities. Video provides dynamic, sequential information that enhances the accuracy of crime detection, as relying on a single frame is insufficient.

Traditional surveillance systems, which require manual monitoring, are labor-intensive and prone to errors, especially with the increasing volume of video data generated by modern CCTV infrastructures. To overcome these limitations, this paper proposes an automated Anomaly Recognition System using deep learning techniques to detect and analyze offensive or disruptive actions in real time.

The system employs a hybrid architecture combining Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for spatial feature extraction and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) for temporal pattern recognition. This approach allows for accurate identification of a wide range of human activities, from routine actions to critical behaviors such as theft, vandalism, fights, and medical emergencies. The system is validated using publicly available datasets like UCF-Crime, which includes normal and suspicious behaviors.

Furthermore, the system integrates image captioning and predictive analytics to enhance its functionality. These features enable the generation of searchable event logs and forecasting of crime patterns for proactive intervention. By automating surveillance, the system aims to improve efficiency, accuracy, and responsiveness, addressing challenges in crime prevention and public safety.

This research contributes to the development of intelligent surveillance systems, focusing on real-time, scalable solutions, and highlights challenges related to model generalization, scalability, and privacy for ethical deployment. Ultimately, the work aims to improve safety, security, and quality of life in diverse environments.

Published: January 2025

The experience of uncertainty which is the phenomenon of the research study strengthens the kidney transplant recipients to live despite many overwhelming circumstances and challenges encountered with their health conditions, families, relatives, people around, and the material things necessary for their survival and existence. The study was conducted with the aim of exploring and understanding the essences of the experience of uncertainty in a phenomenological study among kidney transplant recipients. Uncertainty in Illness Theory explained that people with health issues face the phenomenon of uncertainty. The study was established with the work of Ricouer’s hermeneutic phenomenology, and his approach was utilized as the methodology of analysis. A snowball sampling was utilized in identifying and recruiting the eight (8) participants following the criteria for selection that was set. An online interview through messenger was conducted in Cebuano, Tagalog and English languages, and was recorded and transcribed for data analysis. Utilizing the Ricouer’s Hermeneutic Approach, the findings of the research study were analyzed and interpreted. Based on the five (5) existential lifeworlds of Van Manen (2014) the main themes were developed and categorized as lived body (corporeality), lived thing (materiality), lived space (spatiality), lived self/others (relationality) and lived time (temporality). The research study revealed five main themes which gave meaning to the kidney transplant recipients. These are the wearying encounter (lived body), pressing needs (lived thing), frightening encounter (lived space), conflicting encounter (lived self/others) and distrusting moment (lived time). The study concluded that the experience of uncertainty is an existential phenomenon. Thus, the phenomenon of uncertainty by people who went through major operations like organ transplantation needs a thorough understanding by the people in the healthcare industry.
