One model of tourism development that is in line with alternative tourism is community-based tourism as a pattern that is believed to provide economic benefits and equity, environmental preservation, local culture preservation, social empowerment, community empowerment. Community-based tourism is a tourism development with a high level of local community involvement and can be accounted for from the socio-cultural and environmental aspects. So far, there are no clear rules that explicitly regulate the arrangement of profit sharing, especially in the field of agro-tourism. According to Article 1320 of the KUHPerdata, an agreement is valid if it meets the following four conditions: Agree of those who bind themselves, The ability to make an engagement, a certain thing, a lawful cause—referring to the Legal Principles of Agreement as contained in the KUHPerdata (KUHPerdata), namely Personality Principles (Article 1315 jo 1340 KUHPerdata), Consensualotas Principles (Article 1320 KUHPerdata), Freedom of Contract Principles (Article 1338 paragraph (1) KUHPerdata). In the current reformation era, the legal development strategy is directed towards responsive law characterized by the large role of judicial institutions and the broad participation of social groups or the participation of individuals in society to determine the direction of legal development, resulting in the formation of clear legislation. Furthermore, provide legal certainty in making agreements for agricultural land products related to agro-tourism with environmental insight.

Published: July 2023

The production of shallots can still be increased through technical improvements in cultivation, such as the application of organic fertilizers and the eruption of Mount Merapi (volcanic ash). Organic fertilizers have a significant role in improving the chemical and biological properties of the soil and do not have a negative impact on the environment, although the nutrient content of manure is not as high as that of artificial fertilizers. This study aims to determine the effect of chicken manure and volcanic ash on the growth and production of shallots (Allium ascalonicum L). The research method used was a factorial randomized block design (RAK) consisting of two treatment factors, namely factor I chicken manure ( A) and factor II volcanic ash (V). The results showed that the application of chicken manure had a significant effect on plant height, number of leaves, tuber diameter, tuber wet weight, tuber dry weight. Volcanic ash treatment had no significant effect on plant height, number of leaves, tuber diameter, tuber number, tuber wet weight, and tuber dry weight. The interaction between chicken manure and volcanic ash had no significant effect on plant height, number of leaves, number of tubers, tuber diameter, tuber wet weight, and tuber dry weight.
The Effect of Legal and Political on the Development of foreign Investment in Indonesia
Authors: Pramono Budi , Larasati Ayu
Published: July 2023

Indonesia is a country that is rich in natural potential and is the target of the world market. As a developing country with abundant natural resources that can use a source of funds to advance its economy, it is in dire need of assistance from foreign investors, both in terms of funding and management technology. Indonesia must create a comfortable climate for foreign investors in attracting foreign investors. Because these foreign investors are pretty sensitive to legal and political stability issues and do not want to take risks, the government needs to make policies that make them willing and comfortable to invest their capital. In making these policies, it is inseparable from political members who sit in the state legislature. These legal policies must be able to accommodate the needs of the state for the welfare of its citizens and, on the one hand, must also be able to provide leniency for these foreign investors. Law and politics here very closely relate to influencing the arrival of foreign investors. Politics that have a position more independent from the law will determine the direction of policies and legal products taken. Law acts as a product of current politics.

Project Svarog is a student-led initiative aiming to reach the heliopause using a solar sail. Orbital models have proven the feasibility of the mission given the mass-to-area ratio of about 9 grams per square meter of the sail for a satellite launched on a piggyback mission to Mars. Solar sailing increases the flexibility of missions to the outer Solar System, as unique planet alignment, which was crucial for gravity assists is no longer required. Long-term missions require a better understanding of thin membrane behaviour since buckling of sail material under solar radiation pressure might cause the spacecraft to tumble unpredictably. Reduced order model of membrane deflection is thus coupled with orbital simulation, resulting in the determination of the operation regime, for which the mission escapes the Solar System. Additionally, vacuum chamber experiments designed to investigate the effects of solar radiation pressure and heating on the transient and steady-state behaviour of the sail have been devised. The system is designed to be built as a 6U CubeSat, being one of the first missions to utilise small-scale platforms for deep space missions. Granted that the first mission is successful, the Svarog system could also serve as a low-cost testbed for new technologies and research opportunities in deep space.

Advanced Electric Propulsion Concepts for Fast Missions to the Outer Solar System and Beyond
Authors:   Initiative for Interstellar Studies, 27-29 South Lambeth Road, London SW8 1SZ, United Kingdom, Genovese Angelo , Maraqten Nadim
Published: July 2023

Electric Propulsion (EP) comprises all types of space propulsion in which a certain amount of propellant is ionized and then accelerated by electric or magnetic fields, or both. This propulsion technology allows for much higher specific impulses (Isp > 2,000 s) than conventional chemical propulsion (Isp < 500 s), resulting in a major reduction of the propellant mass or a considerably higher final speed for a certain space mission. Hence, EP can enable very challenging space missions as DAWN has clearly shown. Furthermore, an EP system coupled with an advanced nuclear reactor could enable fast manned missions to Mars (one-way travel times less than 4 months). This propulsion technology can be scaled up to even higher specific impulses (Isp > 5,000s). However, the power needed for the same thrust is also increasing. An Oberth maneuver performed very close to the Sun could provide the additional power to a high-Isp Solar Electric Propulsion (SEP) system in order to reach the needed delta-v for challenging interstellar precursor missions. A breakthrough in power source specific mass is needed in order to enable missions with ultra-high specific impulses (> 10,000 s); this breakthrough could be realized having the power source not on board, as with Laser-powered Electric Propulsion (LEP), where the needed power is beamed to the spacecraft from an external laser source. In this case the on-board power source is limited to a light-weight photovoltaic receiver/converter. The development of ultra-high Isp ion thrusters powered by an external laser source could enable the most challenging interstellar precursor missions up to the Oort Cloud and beyond. This paper gives an update on the status of these advanced propulsion concepts, and provides some examples of interstellar precursor missions enabled by advanced EP systems which could be launched before 2040.

Jebel Aruda: An Uruk period temple and settlement in Syria. Volume I: Excavation and Material Culture
Authors: van Driel Govert , van Driel-Murray Carol
Published: July 2023

Jebel Aruda, a prominent mountain ridge overlooking the Taqba Dam lake in northern Syria, was the location of a remarkable settlement that flourished between c. 3300 and 3100 BC during the so-called Uruk period. For the inhabitants the sacredness of this high place, evidenced by the discovery of a large temple complex, seems to have taken precedent over its impractical location far above the valley of the Euphrates River. The site was destroyed under unknown circumstances, leaving behind the spectacular remains of a well preserved temple complex and numerous houses filled with a rich collection of material culture and administrative tools such as bullae and tablets. A Dutch team excavated the site between 1972 and 1982 while the Tabqua Dam was under construction. These two volumes present the results of these excavations and subsequent research of the remains, with special emphasis on the relationship between the domestic architecture and the finds. These richly illustrated volumes aim to facilitate further research and analysis of an exceptional, short-lived Uruk period settlement, comprising domestic architecture associated with a monumental temple complex. It is intended to appeal to readers interested in Mesopotamia and ancient Syria, as well as archaeologists concerned with architectural and locational analysis in a broader perspective. Volume I presents the results of the excavation, with a discussion of the individual houses and the history of the temple buildings, together with the pottery corpus, the administrative artefacts and sealings, as well as shorter chapters on other material categories (flint, stone etc). The contents of each individual house are presented in Volume II.
Case Report: Painless Compartment Syndrome
Authors: Shpigelman Arsen , Maman David , Khalil Hanna Fadi , Hakim Jeries , Vodovozov Dimitri , Bernfeld Benjamin
Published: July 2023

Introduction: Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) is a surgical emergency that requires urgent intervention in order to prevent permanent structural damage and irreversible functional disability. The diagnosis of ACS depends on a high index of suspicion, relying on the following diagnostic criteria commonly known as the 5 Ps; Pain, Paresthesia, Paralysis, Pallor, and Pulse-lessness. When the diagnosis is uncertain, intracompartmental pressure greater than 30 mmHg is suggestive of ACS. Case Presentation: We report a case of an underdiagnosed ACS, with a lack of classical presentation in a thirty-seven-years-old male patient with a history of myopathy. The patient was admitted to the emergency room due to direct trauma to his right hip, without a significant Visual Analogue Score. On his hip radiograph a subtrochanteric fracture of the right femur was demonstrated. An additional masked ipsilateral subcapital fracture was detected during the operation. The diagnosis of ACS was made during the operation while relying on the clinical appearance of the thigh and the clinical findings during surgery. Fasciotomies were performed, and open reduction with internal fixation via Proximal Femoral Nail was done. The diagnosis of ACS was confirmed later on, by the biopsy results. Conclusion: This case suggests that myopathy can mask the classical presentation of ACS. Furthermore, the extent of pain complaints and accompanying paresthesia cannot be relied on in this regard and other clinical features should be considered in order to diagnose ACS.

Published: July 2023

Background: Hypertension and obesity are two major modifiable risk factors for CAD, most of the time there will be more than two risk factors in an IHD. Obesity itself cause insulin resistance to initiate type -2 DM. is the most common and significant RFs for IHD, and proper BP management is the cornerstone of both direct and indirect prevention. Overweight and obesity account for more than 80% of CHD patients. Obesity is sometimes viewed as a "minor" CHD RF; however, it is a widely effective risk-factor approach. A range of "major" risk factors have been proven to be significantly influenced by weight loss, including HTN, hyperlipidemia and insulin resistance/T2DM. Aim: To assess arterial hypertension and obesity as risk factors of IHD. Methods: This cross-sectional study which was done retrospectively by collecting data from database of "Scientific Research Institute of Cardiology and Internal Diseases" Almaty city, Kazakhstan during 2020. IHD confirmed by history, physical exam, angiography and other lab findings. Result: The research involved a total of 649 participants. The mean age of study population was 64.2±9.24 (P = 0,000).

Published: July 2023

Aim: Functional national systems that monitor Adverse Events Following Immunization (AEFIs) are vital for implementing evidence-based vaccination policy while ensuring the safe access to these life-saving technologies. These systems can counteract vaccine hesitancy by increasing public trust and uptake in vaccination minimizing the burden of vaccine-preventable diseases (VPDs). Ensuring that these systems function optimally is a critical public health imperative. This is a novel study evaluating AEFI surveillance system including causality assessment, in Zimbabwe. This study provides a review of Zimbabwe’s national AEFI surveillance system since its launch in 1998, highlighting strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for improvement. Materials and Methods: We conducted an in-depth analysis of all AEFI reports received until 2021, assessing reporting trends and overall performance of the AEFI system in terms of investigation, causality assessment. The WHO Global Benchmarking Tool (GBT) was used to assess regulatory performance in terms of AEFI surveillance. Duplications were excluded and reports with evidence of AEFI(s) after vaccination were included by examining the WHO 25 AEFI form core variables. Results: There was a steady increase of AEFI reports per annum particularly from 2006 to 2021 with a more dramatic increase during the COVID-19 epidemic with an AEFI reporting ratio of 43.46/million adults for COVID-19 vaccinations in 2021. The reporting ratio exceeded the WHO recommended minimum AEFI reporting ratio of 10 per 100000 surviving infants during eleven years (47.84%) out of the twenty-three years since inception of the surveillance. The GBT assessment demonstrated that the AEFI surveillance system evolved for all manufacturers or license holders. Conclusion: Close partnership between the immunization program and regulatory authority has enhanced AEFI surveillance in Zimbabwe. Incomplete AEFI case investigations for and timely AEFI detection are challenges that need to be addressed. System strengthening should include consideration of digital innovations to improve detection, optimizing case investigation of serious AEFI including post-mortems and utilizing VigiPoint disproportionate analysis for signal detection.

Published: July 2023

Background: The challenge arises from management of big data in transportation can be identified by ontological approach. Road accidents are regarded as a significant cause of both harm to humans and financial damage in many countries. In Malaysia, there were 567,516 accidents in 2020 alone. This translates into a daily average of 13 people killed due to traffic accidents in the country. Here, our work focuses on gap patterns, critical gap analysis, gap acceptance of right-turning motorists (RTMs) and serious conflict model on Malaysia Rural Roadways at three-leg unsignalized intersections. Methods: In early stage, traffic volume, motorist turning manoeuvre and speed study are implemented to identify the traffic behaviour at selected intersection. Three unsignalized intersection (UI) was involved namely (UI2), (UI 9), and (UI10). In the development of logistic regression models, five different datasets were used in this study: right-turning motorist (RTM) at unsignalized intersection UI2 (259 dataset), right-turning motorist at UI 9 (239 dataset), right turning motorist at UI 10 (314 dataset), right turning motorist combined model (812 dataset) and serious conflict lane change (351 dataset). Determination of critical gap was carried out at each unsignalized intersection 2, 9 and 10. Meanwhile gap-pattern analysis at each intersection used visualization spatial plot. In addition, this work investigated logistic regression method, artificial neuron network and structural equation modelling. Results: Gap pattern three was discovered to be a vulnerable gap pattern. Furthermore, this research reveals that the attributes of the gap three pattern, motorcycles rider, speed limit exceeding 50 kph and RTMs where motorcycles stop near passenger cars in minor roads encourage serious conflict. Moreover, this study proposes novelty tool for identifying hazardous unsignalized intersection by using visualization spatial plot between approach speed and gap.

Background: Awake craniotomy is a neurosurgical technique that enables the precise localization of functional neural networks through intraoperative brain mapping and real-time monitoring. This operative method has been popularized in recent years due to decreased postoperative morbidities. We present a case of 31 years old female who was presented with episodes of generalized tonic colonic seizures. She had a history of recurring seizures occurring 2 to 3 times a week. Upon further investigations, she was diagnosed with brain space-occupying lesions initially suspected as low-grade glioma. Considering lesion site, the patient was deemed a suitable candidate for an awake craniotomy. To achieve conscious sedation, the patient received infusions of Remifentanil and Propofol at varying rates. During the procedure, the patient was under sedation and regularly tested for response to predetermined commands. The tumour was successfully excised by using a combination of local anaesthesia on the scalp and the administration of propofol and boluses through a systemic infusion. This case report highlights the importance of the team work among anaesthesia and surgeons where local /regional anaesthesia can be combined with sedation to perform a surgical procedure in certain conditions.

Introdução: Os maus tratos infantis, sejam eles do tipo físico, sexual e/ou mental, aumentam os riscos de desenvolvimento de distúrbios e prejudicam a infância normal e saudável da criança. Objetivo: Identificar por meio de uma revisão de literatura os principais aspectos orofaciais de abuso físico, sexual e negligência na infância. Metodologia: Foram realizadas buscas nas bases de dados Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS), e PubMed. Os critérios de inclusão foram estudos publicados em português, inglês ou espanhol e que abordassem os aspectos orofaciais de abuso físico, sexual e/ou negligência na infância. Foram excluídos estudos secundários, publicados antes do ano de 2012, sem acessibilidade ao texto, resumos para congressos e comentários de autor. Resultados: Após a análise dos artigos encontrados forma selecionados 18 que abordaram sobre aspectos orofaciais do abuso físico, sexual ou negligência na infância, publicados em inglês (n=17) e espanhol (n=1), entre os anos de 2014 e 2021. Considerações finais: A presente revisão mostrou que as lesões de cárie severa na infância estão associadas ao abuso infantil e a negligência ocasiona distúrbios que podem permanecer na vida adulta, entre eles: ansiedade odontológica; comportamento; saúde agravada; evasão do atendimento odontológico; má higiene oral; halitose, cárie dentária severa, infecções odontogênicas, placa e cálculo, úlceras aftosas. Desta forma, é necessário maior cuidado com essas crianças, não apenas no tratamento das afecções orais, mas também na prestação de cuidados interdisciplinares.

Introdução: A determinação correta do comprimento de trabalho durante a terapia endodôntica é imprescindível para o sucesso do tratamento. Objetivo: O objetivo desse estudo foi comparar, in vitro, a precisão de dois localizadores foraminais eletrônicos (LFE): Root ZX (J. MORITA) e Finepex (SCHUSTER)em determinar o comprimento real dos canais. Material e métodos: Foram utilizados 32 pré-molares inferiores extraídos, apresentando canal único, reto e com forame axial. Após o preparo cervical dos dentes, foi determinado o comprimento real dos canais. As medidas eletrônicas foram obtidas levando o instrumento até as marcas “APEX”, ou “00” dos aparelhos localizadores foraminais eletrônicos, empregando um modelo de alginato para realizar as leituras. As medidas obtidas em cada aparelho foram comparadas entre si e com as medidas reais dos espécimes. Os dados foram submetidos a análise estatística. Resultados: Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre as medidas reais e as obtidas pelos LFE testados (ANOVA p = 0,09). Conclusão: Concluímos que o LFE Finepex foi tão preciso quanto o Root ZX em determinar o comprimento real dos canais.

A autoavaliação institucional consiste em um processo que propõe realizar uma análise reflexiva, orientado por diretrizes e indicadores específicos, com o objetivo de identificar caminhos e soluções que possibilitem a melhoria da instituição de ensino superior nas esferas pedagógica, administrativa, política e técnico-científica. Considerando que a autoavaliação institucional é uma importante ferramenta para orientar gestores no planejamento estratégico, o objetivo deste trabalho foi observar as etapas do processo, analisando resultados e suas aplicações na gestão educacional. O trabalho foi desenvolvido a partir do acompanhamento das atividades da Comissão Própria de Avaliação de uma Instituição de Ensino Superior Privada de Curitiba, Paraná, durante o ano de 2021. Análises documentais dos Relatórios de Autoavaliação Institucional, do Projeto de Autoavaliação Institucional e do Plano de Desenvolvimento Institucional também foram realizadas. Acompanhar as etapas da autoavaliação, desde a sensibilização até a divulgação dos resultados, é essencial para um melhor entendimento e valorização do processo. Desde sua implantação na faculdade estudada, a CPA vem contribuindo de maneira significativa para o desenvolvimento institucional, promovendo a melhoria contínua em todos os segmentos acadêmicos. O processo de autoavaliação deve contar com a participação da comunidade acadêmica e ser facilitado pelos gestores, possibilitando um efetivo trabalho da CPA, proporcionando melhorias educacionais e maior efetividade social.

Music and Sound in Toyama City Up-close and from Afar: A Close Reading of Online Materials Informed by In-person Experience
Authors: Scally William Donnie
Published: July 2023

The COVID-19 pandemic demands a re-examination of the ethics and practicality of research that relies on in-person interaction. After eight months of a planned year of on-site dissertation fieldwork researching the musical life of Toyama City, Japan, I returned to the US at the end of March 2020 due to the pandemic. I continued to correspond with local contacts, but even within a single city, not all are evenly connected online. I began carefully analyzing online materials to supplement my prior in-person experience and ongoing correspondence. Interpreting such media, representing different groups, demands careful attention to its varying production and engagement contexts. Furthermore, recordings and other online materials differ from the events they represent. In spite of these limitations, researchers already familiar with the events depicted may be able to tease out subtle clues indicating local sentiment, even from afar. In this article, I conduct a close reading of two videos posted on YouTube in 2021 as the pandemic continued to impact public music making in Toyama City: (1) a message and musical performance from chindon-ya performers scheduled to appear at the cancelled 2020 and 2021 National Chindon Competition in Toyama City and (2) a video of a lion dance performed as part of the 2021 Yatsuo Hikiyama Festival, which resumed in 2021 following its cancellation in 2020. This analysis demonstrates the potentials and limitations of ethnographically informed close reading and explores how prior in-person experiences with musical communities might inform subsequent close readings of online media depicting those communities.
