Published: February 2020

Hedging is the one of activities is performed by a company or a bank to protect their business from the risk of changes caused by exchange rates or exchange rate fluctuations. There are some things that should be considered by companies whom often perform the transactions related to interest rate and exchange rate. For example, banks should monitor the company performance against losses caused by foreign exchange and also arrange the strategy, because it is necessary for the company to perform hedging. The research is purposed to learn how to minimize the risks of losses experienced by banks due to hedging techniques usage. The hedging techniques performed are swap and forward hedging. The method used in this study correlation coefficient and simple regression to determine the relationship between the variables in question. The result of this research shows that hedging technique in the buying and selling transactions of foreign exchange has more benefit rather than not. It can avoid the risks of transaction exposures. It can be seen from the significant level, Forward has the significant level in the amount of 0,000. It means the Forward Hedging Technique has an effect to the transaction exposure and Hedging transaction using Swap has the benefit rather than not. The significant level in the amount of 0,007 is smaller than 0,05. It means that Swap Hedging Technique has an effect to the transaction exposure. Accordingly, Forward and Swap deserve to be considered by companies or banks to avoid the risks of transaction exposures.

Pengaruh Net Interest Margin (NIM) Dan Likuiditas Terhadap Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) Pada Bank Yang Terdaftar Di Bursa Efek Indonesia
Authors: Marpaung Annaria Magdalena , . Lizabeth
Published: February 2020

Sudirman (2013:93) opined that banks are obliged to provide minimum capital as of 8 (eight) percent. This can be measured using Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR). CAR is a ratio calculated from the amount of Bank’s capital compared to ATMR. CAR is an indicator of Bank ability to cover its depreciated assets. This is a result from loss, due to risque assets (Dendawijaya, 2005). Fund distribution to the society in the form of loans is a Bank main actitivy other than collecting the fund from third party. The increase in revenues will result in the increasing of capital, such is with an assumption that the earned revenues are reinvested into capitals. In accordance to this, then Net Interest Margin (NIM)is being used to acquire the Bank management ability in managing its productive assets in order to produce net profit. Liquidity ratios are used to measure a Bank ability in fulfilling its short term when due (Kasmir, 2009). The larger the ratios, the more liquid the assets. The relationships of capital and liquidty is firm  enough, the Bank does not need to obtain other source of capital to fulfill its short term obligations.

For users of financial statements and business people in economic decision making requires information about the condition and financial performance of the company. Risk analysis is an alternative to test whether banking risks are useful for predicting future earnings growth. Well, managed risks can provide benefits to banks in generating profits or revenues. Financial users and business users in assessing a banking company not only see the profit generated in one period but continuously monitor the profit growth from year to year.

               This study was conducted by using multiple linear regression analysis, in three banking companies, namely PT. Bank Negara Indonesia Persero Tbk., PT. Bank Rakyat Indonesia Persero Tbk. and PT. Bank Mandiri Persero Tbk. The data used are financial reports for 10 years, from 2008-2017.

            The results showed that (1) simultaneously Credit Risk (NPL) and Operational Risk (BOPO) have no significant effect on Banking Profit Growth, which obtained from significant value is 0,060; (2) partially Credit Risk (NPL) has a significant effect on Profit Growth, which obtained from significant value is equal to 0,021. The higher the NPL, the company's profit will decrease. While Operational Risk (BOPO) has an insignificant effect on Banking Profit Growth, which is obtained from the significant value is 0.735. The source of bank income does not only come from operating income, but non-operating income also plays a role in increasing the bank's income resulting in profit growth

This research was conducted using financial reports from companies engaged in retail distribution sector during the periods of 2013-2016 using financial ratios analysis. These ratios described how profitability, assets management and company’s equity are affecting the dividend policy. We can conclude that dividend policy has major impact on the company’s growth and stock performance.

The results show that a slight decrease in the stock price will also cause a decrease in the profit and eventually causing decrease to the earning per share. The dividend per share experiences an increase because these companies still intent to pay the dividend among their share holders to maintain share price. Share price declines due to the interest rate policies of Bank Indonesia and the value of export import. These companies have run proper dividend policies by maintaining the growth and company value, seen from the increasing portion of retained earnings and the portion of dividend payment. Thus the decreasing price of share is mostly caused by external factors.

Authors: Lestari Pramulani Mulya , Widayanti Ari , Afifah Hani
Published: February 2020

BACKGROUND: Pregelatinizing is processed to modify structure of starch by heating a certain temperature. Increasing of temperature causes the starch to absorb water and swell quickly in order to obtain a larger particle size. Larger particle size will improve the flowability and compressibility of the granules. Pregelatinized taro starch is used as diluent tablets with wet granulation method.
AIM: The objective research was to determine the effect of increasing pregelatinized taro starch temperature as diluent on compressibility and comprimability granule of thiamine hidrochloride compression.
METHODS: Pregelatinized taro starch is made by heating the suspension of starch at 50°C, 60°C and 70°C for 10 minutes and then dried. Pregelatinized taro starch is used as a filler of Thiamine Hidrocloride tablets which made by wet granulation method. Test wereperformed for each formula such as quality tests of granules and tablets physical properties and assay.
RESULT: Granule compressibility evaluation results show that the formula 1, 2, and 3 qualified with compressibility value is 7.9941 respectively; 6.9929; and 5.9950%. From the results of the one-way ANOVA analysis of the compressibility obtained sig. 0,000 less than 0.05, then there is a significant difference between formula one with the other formulas.
CONCLUSION: It shows the difference in temperature affect the compressibility pregelatinized taro starch. The higher the temperature of pregelatinized taro starch, produces tablets with low compressibility.

Authors: Baroroh Faridah , Sari Andriana , Masruroh Noviana
Published: February 2020

BACKGROUND: he achievement of optimal hypertension therapy requires cost-effective medicine. The treatment of hypertensive patients needs for long-term medication have made medical costs a prime issue in health economics.
AIM: This study aims to determine the cost effectiveness of candesartan therapy compared to candesartan-amlodipine therapy on hypertensive outpatients.
METHODS: This is a prospective cohort study that compares candesartan therapy to candesartan-amlodipine therapy at a public hospital from payers’ perspective. The outcome is the percentage of targeted blood pressure decrease after three months of therapy. The cost effectiveness analysis uses the Incremental Cost Effectiveness Ratio (ICER) based on the ratio of cost difference to the outcome in both therapy groups.
RESULTS: As many as 111 patients participated in this research, comprising 40 candesartan therapy patients and 71 patients with the combination of candesartan-amlodipine. Of the participants, 63.96% were female, 57.66% were aged 60 or older, and 56.32% had diabetes mellitus as the most common complication. Results show that the average direct medical cost per patient for a therapy of three months with candesartan was IDR 1,050,536 ± 730,007 and IDR 760,040 ± 614,290 for a candesartan-amlodipine therapy. The mean decline of systolic and diastolic blood pressure under candesartan therapy is less than that of candesartan-amlodipine, although without any significant difference (p > 0.05). It follows that the effectiveness of candesartan (85%) is greater than that of the candesartan-amlodipine combination (84.50%). Candesartan therapy is thereby more cost-effective with an ICER value of IDR 580,993/%.
CONCLUSION: Hypertension therapy by candesartan is more cost-effective than candesartan-amlodipine therapy with a cost addition of IDR 580,993.

Published: February 2020

Parmi le très riche matériel issu des dépôts archaïques des trois sanctuaires d’Athéna à Camiros, Lindos et Ialysos, ainsi que des différentes nécropoles rhodiennes, un ensemble particulier de vases et figurines en faïence se distingue des autres Aegyptiaca de type égyptien (scarabées, amulettes…). Nous expliquons ici pourquoi le contexte culturel et artistique qui a présidé à l’élaboration de cette production est, à notre avis, fortement lié au milieu deltaïque égyptien de la fin de la Troisième Période Intermédiaire et du début de l’époque saïte. Enfin cette étude propose de montrer l’intérêt qu’il y a à mettre en relation le contexte de développement de cette iconographie et le contexte archéologique (en particulier funéraire) de ces objets, en prenant en compte ce que l’on sait par ailleurs de l’usage qui en était fait.

Risk of Snake Entanglement Is Affected by Installation Method of Erosion Control Blankets
Authors: Ward Krista J. , Jobe Kasey L. , Schiwitz Nicholas C. , Saenz Daniel , Schalk Christopher M.
Published: February 2020

At the conclusion of road construction projects, an erosion control product (e.g., blankets, spray mulch) is installed to reduce soil loss and promote plant growth. Wildlife, such as snakes (suborder Serpentes), are prone to entanglement in erosion control blankets (ECBs) that contain polypropylene mesh with fused apertures. Previous reports have noted that the occurrences of entanglements are not uniform in their distribution across an ECB, but primarily occur where the edge of the mesh is exposed. We conducted an experiment to determine if modification to the installation methods of ECBs affects the likelihood of snake entanglement. We conducted entanglement trials to compare the likelihood of snake entanglement between two treatments: 1) exposed ECB edge (i.e., perimeter) and 2) buried ECB edge. Snakes were less likely to attempt to pass through the mesh on the buried edge treatment and all entanglements occurred on the exposed edge treatment. These results provide support that modification to the installation methods reduces snake entanglement in ECBs in some settings. However, we conducted our study in an experimental setting, and it should be evaluated under natural field conditions. This research can be used to inform several parties including contractors, habitat managers, and agency decision makers on additional steps that can be taken for products that fit their application needs to minimize risks to wildlife.

Published: February 2020

Cet article présente une analyse de l’activité de lycéens en step. En référence au cadre du cours d’action (Theureau, 2006), il décrit les apprentissages sensoriels de lycéens débutants en step, et plus précisément la manière dont ils apprennent à être attentifs à leurs sensations corporelles et à les interpréter. L’enjeu est de mieux comprendre les processus de construction de « savoir-faire perceptifs » chez les pratiquants, en nous référant à leur vécu. En effet, la construction de compétences perceptives et sensibles apparaît fondamentale chez le pratiquant pour réguler les actions motrices, apprendre à gérer l’effort, mais aussi dans une logique de développement du bien-être et de la santé. Aussi, il s’agit d’explorer le développement de savoir-faire perceptifs, afin de proposer des stratégies d’intervention et des postures d’accompagnement singulières pour des acteurs de l’éducation par les APSA.

LA SANTA MUERTE EN LA CIUDAD DE MÉXICO: DEVOCIÓN, VIDA COTIDIANA Y ESPACIO PÚBLICO
Authors: Garcés Marrero Roberto
Published: February 2020

La Santa Muerte es una devoción mexicana muy conocida, en México y fuera de él. En este trabajo se trata de, a través del trabajo etnográfico, explicar qué significa la Santa Muerte para sus devotos en su vida cotidiana y en su habitar una de las mayores ciudades del mundo. Se hace énfasis en la caracterización que hacen los fieles de la Santa y en los prejuicios que enfrentan, así como al derrumbe de altares públicos que han ocurrido luego de la declaración de guerra al narco a finales de 2006. En la Ciudad de México los altares públicos que aún perduran y en general el culto abierto se da en las colonias más vulnerables de la zona urbana. También se puede sostener la hipótesis de que la Santa Muerte es una devoción que llega a la ciudad desde los estados circundantes a mediados del siglo pasado, momento en que hubo un boom demográfico en gran medida causado por la migración.
Enhanced Host-Based Intrusion Detection Using System Call Traces
Authors: Yaqoob S. Ikram Yaqoob S. Ikram
Published: February 2020

To detect zero-day attacks in modern systems, several host-based intrusion detection
systems are proposed using the newly compiled ADFA-LD dataset. These techniques use the
system call traces of the dataset to detect anomalies, but generally they suffer either from high
computational cost as in window-based techniques or low detection rate as in frequency-based
techniques. To enhance the accuracy and speed, we propose a host-based intrusion detection
system based on distinct short sequences extraction from traces of system calls with a novel
algorithm to detect anomalies. To the best of our knowledge, the obtained results of the proposed
system are superior to all up-to-date published systems in terms of computational cost and
learning time. The obtained detection rate is also much higher than almost all compared systems
and is very close to the highest result. In particular, the proposed system provides the best
combination of high detection rate and very small learning time. The developed prototype
achieved 90.48% detection rate, 22.5% false alarm rate, and a learning time of about 30 seconds.
This provides high capability to detect zero-day attacks and also makes it flexible to cope with
any environmental changes since it can learn quickly and incrementally without the need to
rebuild the whole classifier from scratch.

Abstract. During the night, in the F-region, equatorial ionospheric irregularities manifest as plasma depletions observed by satellites, and they may cause radio signals to fluctuate. In this study, the distribution characteristics of ionospheric F-region irregularities in the low latitudes were investigated using 16 Hz electron density observations made by a faceplate which is a component of the electric field instrument (EFI) onboard Swarm satellites of the European Space Agency (ESA). The study covers the period from October 2014 to October 2018 when the 16 Hz electron density data were available. For comparison, both the absolute (dNe) and relative (dNe∕Ne) density perturbations were used to quantify the level of ionospheric irregularities. The two methods generally reproduced the local-time (LT), seasonal and longitudinal distribution of equatorial ionospheric irregularities as shown in earlier studies, demonstrating the ability of Swarm 16 Hz electron density data. A difference between the two methods was observed based on the latitudinal distribution of ionospheric irregularities where (dNe) showed a symmetrical distribution about the magnetic equator, while dNe∕Ne showed a magnetic-equator-centred Gaussian distribution. High values of dNe and dNe∕Ne were observed in spatial bins with steep gradients of electron density from a longitudinal and seasonal perspective. The response of ionospheric irregularities to geomagnetic and solar activities was also investigated using Kp index and solar radio flux index (F10.7), respectively. The reliance of dNe∕Ne on solar and magnetic activity showed little distinction in the correlation between equatorial and off-equatorial latitudes, whereas dNe showed significant differences. With regard to seasonal and longitudinal distribution, high dNe and dNe∕Ne values were often found during quiet magnetic periods compared to magnetically disturbed periods. The dNe increased approximately linearly from low to moderate solar activity. Using the high-resolution faceplate data, we were able to identify ionospheric irregularities on the scale of only a few hundred of metres.

Abstract. Tritium (3H) as a constituent of the water molecule is an important natural tracer in hydrological sciences. The anthropogenic tritium introduced into the atmosphere became unintentionally an excellent tracer of processes on the time scale of up to a 100 years. A prerequisite for tritium applications is to know the distribution of tritium activity in precipitation. Here we present the spatially continuous gridded database (isoscapes) for amount-weighted annual mean tritium activity in precipitation for the period 1976 to 2017 on 1 × 1 km grids for the Adriatic-Pannonian Region (using 39 stations), with a special focus on post-2010 years which are not represented by existing global models. Three stations were used to check the model performance independently confirming its capability to reproducing the spatiotemporal tritium variability in the region. This Regional model is capable of providing reliable spatiotemporal input data for hydrogeological application at any place within Slovenia, Hungary and its surroundings. Results also show a decrease in the average spatial representativity of the stations regarding tritium activity in precipitation from ~ 600 km in 1970s when bomb-tritium was still prevailing in precipitation, to ~ 300 km in the 2010s. The post-2010 isoscapes can serve as benchmarks for background tritium activity for the region, helping to determine local increases of technogenic tritium from these backgrounds. The gridded tritium isoscape is available in NetCDF-4 at doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.896938 (Kern et al., 2019).
Automated Monte Carlo-based quantification and updating of geological uncertainty with borehole data (AutoBEL v1.0)
Authors: Yin Zhen , Strebelle Sebastien , Caers Jef
Published: February 2020

Abstract. Geological uncertainty quantification is critical to subsurface modeling and
prediction, such as groundwater, oil or gas, and geothermal resources, and needs to be
continuously updated with new data. We provide an automated method for
uncertainty quantification and the updating of geological models using borehole
data for subsurface developments within a Bayesian framework. Our
methodologies are developed with the Bayesian evidential learning protocol
for uncertainty quantification. Under such a framework, newly acquired
borehole data directly and jointly update geological models (structure,
lithology, petrophysics, and fluids), globally and spatially, without
time-consuming model rebuilding. To address the above matters, an ensemble of
prior geological models is first constructed by Monte Carlo simulation from
prior distribution. Once the prior model is tested by means of a falsification
process, a sequential direct forecasting is designed to perform the joint
uncertainty quantification. The direct forecasting is a statistical learning
method that learns from a series of bijective operations to establish
“Bayes–linear-Gauss” statistical relationships between model and data
variables. Such statistical relationships, once conditioned to actual
borehole measurements, allow for fast-computation posterior geological
models. The proposed framework is completely automated in an open-source
project. We demonstrate its application by applying it to a generic gas
reservoir dataset. The posterior results show significant uncertainty
reduction in both spatial geological model and gas volume prediction and
cannot be falsified by new borehole observations. Furthermore, our automated
framework completes the entire uncertainty quantification process
efficiently for such large models.

Published: February 2020

Abstract. We provide a review of the environmental threats and gaps in monitoring
programmes in European coastal waters based on previous studies, an online
questionnaire, and an in-depth assessment of observation scales. Our
findings underpin the JERICO-NEXT1 monitoring strategy for the
development and integration of coastal observatories in Europe and support
JERICO-RI2 in providing
high-value physical, chemical, and biological datasets for addressing key
challenges at a European level. This study highlights the need for improved
monitoring of environmental threats in European coastal environments. Participants in the online questionnaire provided new insights into gaps
between environmental threats and monitoring of impacts. In total, 36
national representatives, scientists, and monitoring authorities from 12
European countries (Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Malta,
Norway, Poland, Spain, Sweden, UK) completed the questionnaire,
and 38 monitoring programmes were reported. The main policy drivers of
monitoring were identified as the EU Water Framework Directive (WFD), the Marine
Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD), Regional Seas Conventions (e.g. OSPAR),
and local drivers. Although policy drivers change over time, their overall
purposes remain similar. The most commonly identified threats to the marine
environment were marine litter, shipping, contaminants, organic enrichment,
and fishing. Regime change was identified as a pressure by 67 % of
respondents. The main impacts of these pressures or threats were identified
by the majority of respondents (> 70 %) to be habitat loss or
destruction, underwater noise, and contamination, with 60 % identifying
undesirable disturbance (e.g. oxygen depletion), changes in
sediment and/or substrate composition, changes in community composition, harmful
microorganisms, and invasive species as impacts. Most respondents considered current monitoring of threats to be partially
adequate or not adequate. The majority of responses were related to the spatial
and/or temporal scales at which monitoring takes place and inadequate
monitoring of particular parameters. Suggestions for improved monitoring
programmes included improved design, increased monitoring effort, and better
linkages with research and new technologies. Improved monitoring programmes
should be fit for purpose, underpin longer-term scientific objectives which
cut across policy and other drivers, and consider cumulative effects of
multiple pressures. JERICO-RI aims to fill some of the observation gaps in monitoring
programmes through the development of new technologies. The science strategy for
JERICO-RI will pave the way to a better integration of physical, chemical,
and biological observations into an ecological process perspective.

Published: February 2020

Hallux valgus deformity is a progressive forefoot deformity consisting of a prominence derived from a medially deviated first metatarsal and laterally displaced great toe, with or without pronation. Although there is agreement that the deformity is likely caused by multifactorial intrinsic and extrinsic factors, the best method of operative management is debated despite the creation of basic algorithms. Our understanding of the deformity and the development of newer techniques is continuously evolving. Here, we review the general orthopaedic principles of operative decision-making and management of hallux valgus deformity.

Introduction:

Analysis of the Fundamentals of Arthroscopy Surgery Training (FAST) workstation regarding increased proficiency and retention of basic arthroscopy skills in novice subjects.

Methods:

First-year medical students from a single allopathic medical school performed weekly standardized FAST workstation modules for a consecutive 6 weeks. Primary outcomes evaluated were time to task completion and error rate on specific modules. Scores were analyzed using a one-way repeated measures analysis of variance design for overall trends in time and errors over the 6-week study. Psychomotor retention was analyzed after a 12-week and 24-week interlude.

Results:

Across the initial 6-week study, the average time to complete all modules at the workstation decreased significantly (P < 0.001) with a mean reduction in the total workstation time of 21.9 minutes (s = 8.12 minutes). Weekly comparisons showed the most significant improvement from week 1 to week 2 for the total workstation time (P < 0.001). Results after a 12-week and 24-week interval of inactivity demonstrated no significant difference in the mean workstation time or errors when compared with the original 6-week study.

Discussion:

The FAST workstation significantly improved the task performance of novice participants over a 6-week period with no significant deterioration in task performance after 12 and 24 weeks of inactivity.
