This research delves into the role of Stars Supplemental Provider Ratings in the healthcare domain and assesses their impact on healthcare quality. Through a comprehensive analysis of various healthcare providers, this study aims to shed light on the significance of Stars Supplemental Ratings as a metric for evaluating and improving healthcare services. This research aims to investigate the impact of Stars Supplemental Provider Ratings on healthcare quality, patient satisfaction, and clinical performance. The study adopts a comprehensive approach, combining quantitative and qualitative analyses to gain insights into the role of Stars Supplemental Ratings in the contemporary healthcare landscape. A diverse sample of healthcare providers, including hospitals, clinics, and individual practitioners, participated in the study. Quantitative data were collected through patient surveys, electronic health records, and Stars Supplemental Rating platforms. Qualitative insights were derived from in-depth analysis of patient comments associated with different star ratings. Statistical analyses, including correlation studies and multiple regression models, were employed to assess the relationships between Stars Supplemental Ratings, patient satisfaction, and clinical performance. Descriptive analysis revealed a mean Stars Supplemental Rating of 4.2 (SD = 0.6) across the sample. Positive correlations were identified between higher Stars Supplemental Ratings and increased patient satisfaction (r = 0.67, p < 0.001) as well as improved clinical performance (r = 0.42, p < 0.01). Qualitative analysis of patient comments highlighted themes of effective communication, personalized care, and extended wait times, contributing to a nuanced understanding of the patient experience. The findings suggest a significant positive association between Stars Supplemental Ratings, patient satisfaction, and clinical performance in the healthcare domain. Higher ratings were consistently linked with favorable patient experiences and adherence to evidence-based practices. These insights underscore the potential value of Stars Supplemental Ratings as a valuable tool for assessing and improving healthcare quality, fostering transparency, and aiding patients in making informed healthcare choices.

Starfruit (Averrhoa Bilimbi L) is a starfruit vegetable that is often used by Indonesian people as an acid in kitchen spices. Starfruit (Averrhoa Bilimbi L) is often made into suntan acid so that it can be used for 1-1.5 years because it has undergone a drying process. The drying process for Starfruit (Averrhoa Bilimbi L) is still traditional, namely by drying it in direct sunlight. This drying is less efficient because it is influenced by several factors such as weather factors and the length of the drying process which can affect the quality and color of sunti acid. This research aims to find out how to design and design tools, as well as time and temperature in processing the tunnel type Starfruit (Averrhoa Bilimbi L) using a blower system with heat control based on Arduino Mega 2560. The research method used in this research is quantitative research. The research results show that the design and design in this research have been successfully designed, overall, this tool is shaped like a tube with several supporting components, namely LPG gas, blower, and drum holder. The time needed to reach a dry Belimbing Wuluh is done in 6 stages with an interval of 120 minutes, so the total is 12 hours. The temperatures that occur in both T1, T2, and T3 vary as seen from the test graph. Temperature testing in this test uses a MAX6675 sensor with a thermocouple connected to an Arduino Mega 2560.

Salatiga merupakan wilayah yang strategis di wilayah Yogyakarta, Surakarta, dan Semarang, sehingga seringkali menjadi tempat persinggahan para wisatawan yang melintas ke tiga kota tersebut. Sebagai akibatnya, warung kuliner di kota Salatiga juga berkembang pesat dari waktu ke waktu yang berimplikasi pada potensi timbulan sampah makanan (food waste). Namun, studi mengenai sisa makanan tersebut masih terbatas. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengeksplorasi produksi makanan dan sampah makanan yang dihasilkan oleh warung kuliner dan konsumennya di Kota Salatiga. Studi dilakukan dengan metode kualitatif pada lima warung kuliner yang berjualan sore hingga malam hari di Kota Salatiga. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sampah makanan yang dibuang oleh warung kuliner adalah sampah makanan yang berasal dari bagian yang tidak dapat dimakan seperti kulit telur, minyak jelantah, dsb. Namun ada warung kuliner yang menunjukkan praktik baik dengan menyajikan porsi yang tepat bagi pembeli, sehingga memperkecil potensi menyampah. Selain itu, makanan yang tidak dihabiskan biasanya dibawa pulang oleh pembeli, sehingga tidak menjadi sampah.

Avoiding the arise of opportunities for organised crime

The main difference between various forms of prevention of organised crime is between primary and secondary prevention on the one hand and tertiary prevention on the other. The latter is directed at diminishing an already existing problem. This article deals with social conditions which promote the arising of organised crime and with relevant specifically vulnerable factors and sectors (primary and secondary prevention). The authors argue that in a way every society gets the organised crime it deserves. Organising and regulating society often has the side effect of creating opportunities for individuals and groups which gain profit by exploiting the illegal markets that arise as a consequence of regulations. Whether the desire for regulation or the prevention of (organised) crime should prevail is a topic for political and social debate.

Published: August 2024

Banking stability has become an important issue in the economy, especially after the 1998 Asian economic crisis and the 2008 global crisis which showed that the economic stability of a country is strongly influenced by the stability of its financial system. This study aims to analyze the influence of macroeconomic factors such as inflation, interest rate (BI Rate), and rupiah exchange rate on banking stability in Indonesia. Using a quantitative approach and multiple regression analysis, it was found that interest rates (BI Rate) and the rupiah exchange rate have a significant influence on banking stability, while inflation was not found to have a significant influence. Interest rates affect stability through the cost of funds incurred by banks, while a stable rupiah exchange rate increases investor confidence and lowers exchange rate risk, strengthening financial system stability. The non-significant effect of inflation may be due to the banking sector's ability to adjust interest rates and effective risk management strategies. The results emphasize the importance of effective monetary policy and exchange rate risk management to maintain banking stability in Indonesia. This research provides valuable insights for regulators in formulating policies that support banking stability and sustainable economic growth.

Authors: Filgueiras Isabel Porto , Marques Bruna Gabriela , Toledo Renata Ferraz de
Published: August 2024

O artigo analisa o uso das narrativas autobiográficas na formação de professores-pesquisadores em Educação Física em um programa de pós-graduação stricto sensu, explorando como essas narrativas contribuem para a construção de identidades e subjetividades enquanto profissionais em processo de desenvolvimento acadêmico. A partir das experiências de quatro participantes, o estudo destaca a importância do autoconhecimento e da reflexividade na pesquisa qualitativa, alinhando-se às ideias de Paulo Freire sobre a formação crítica e emancipadora. Os resultados mostram que as narrativas autobiográficas não só promovem a reflexão sobre as trajetórias pessoais e profissionais, mas reforçam o compromisso ético e político dos sujeitos com a pesquisa e a prática pedagógica. O estudo reconhece como limitação o fato de as narrativas terem sido utilizadas como avaliação, o que pode ter influenciado a autenticidade das reflexões. Sugere-se o aprofundamento de investigações sobre essa metodologia em diferentes contextos de formação de professores-pesquisadores na pós-graduação stricto sensu.

Los hallazgos de la investigación revelan que, aunque se han implementado algunas mejoras significativas, como la adopción de normas internacionales y el uso de tecnología avanzada, persisten problemas como la corrupción, la falta de recursos y la resistencia al cambio. Los modelos de auditoría propuestos por diferentes investigadores destacan la necesidad de normas y procedimientos claros, segregación de funciones, capacitación continua y auditorías internas regulares. Sin embargo, la disparidad en la implementación de estas prácticas y las limitaciones presupuestarias han impedido una mejora uniforme en todos los GAD. En conclusión, a pesar de los avances, todavía se requiere un esfuerzo considerable para fortalecer el control interno de los GAD en Ecuador. Es fundamental aumentar los recursos, combatir la corrupción, fomentar la transparencia y asegurar una implementación uniforme de buenas prácticas para lograr un sistema de auditoría gubernamental verdaderamente eficaz.

Visual Depictions and Narrative Functions of Achilles’ Death in Homer’s The Iliad
Authors: Cromwell Evander J.
Published: August 2024

This paper explores the narrative strategies and symbolic significance of Achilles’ death in Homer’s The Iliad, focusing on how Homer employs visual depictions to enhance the hero’s image and convey the theme of mortality. Through a detailed analysis of textual foreshadowing, character reactions, and symbolic imagery, the study reveals how Achilles’ death serves as a central motif that underscores the epic’s themes of heroism and the inevitability of death. Additionally, the paper examines ancient Greek art, such as vase paintings and sculptures, to provide a visual complement to the literary narrative. These artistic representations capture key moments that highlight Achilles’ heroic status and the divine interventions that seal his fate, aligning closely with the literary themes of destiny and mortality. The research also considers the cultural and philosophical concerns of ancient Greek society, reflecting on how the interplay between literary and visual depictions reinforces the cultural belief in the power of fate and the transient nature of human life. By integrating textual and visual analyses, this paper offers a comprehensive understanding of the enduring legacy of Achilles and the thematic depth of The Iliad.

¿RMB vs. Dólar? La expansión china y la política de internacionalización del renminbi
Authors: Sevares Julio
Published: August 2024

El gobierno chino lleva adelante una política de internacionalización del renminbi (RMB), que implica promover la utilización de la moneda en las transacciones comerciales y financieras internacionales. La emisión de una moneda internacional aporta ventajas como, en primer lugar, la capacidad de tomar deuda en la propia moneda, pero también riesgos, como la posibilidad de que la misma sufra ataques especulativos. Para convertir la moneda propia en internacional el país emisor tiene que satisfacer una serie de requisitos macroeconómicos y políticos. En función de su objetivo China ha tomado numerosas medidas, entre las más importantes liberalizar el movimiento de capitales y promover el mercado de bonos en RMB en el exterior. En los primeros años de esa política la internacionalización del RMB avanzó,  pero la tendencia se revirtió a partir de 2015 por diversos factores económicos. En la actualidad, los indicadores de internacionalización muestran al RMB muy por detrás del dólar y otras monedas. No obstante es de esperar que en la medida de que la producción y el comercio exterior chinos crezcan por encima de los países desarrollados, el uso de su moneda se expandirá internacionalmente y cohabitará con el dólar y las demás divisas.
