The aim of this research is to design a trade goods inventory information system for MSMEs. Information technology that has experienced rapid growth allows companies to use information technology to run company operations. This is used by many companies to avoid several omissions in terms of accounting records if done manually. Accounting record negligence that often occurs is in inventory. UMKM "Deepa" Electronic as an MSME that sells household electronic goods has used several inventory accounting recording applications that have been sold freely in the market but there are several needs that cannot be met by the financial recording application, so it returns to using Microsoft Excel for inventory inventory activities. However, Microsoft Excel does not have a database management system so that the data that has been inputted cannot generate reports automatically. This makes inventory activities less efficient. The solution to this problem is to design a website-based inventory information system using the Prototype method. The results of this study are the design of inventory information systems in MSMEs to make inventory more effective and efficient.

The recent wave of reform in Education brought with it a lot of important changes to the teaching of science in secondary school, in particular by favouring the integration of new disciplinary and priority fields such as environmental education (EVE). However, it appears that, concretely, EVE actions are rather rare in our educational institutions given the lack of initial teacher training in this field. The context of this work is interested in showing how environmental education clubs can contribute to the improvement of environmental learning and education in qualifying secondary schools. The difficulty of combining environmental education with the teaching of life and earth sciences is associated with the difficulty of linking all school disciplines within a reformed national curriculum. However, it appears that, concretely, EVE actions are rather rare in our educational institutions given the lack of initial teacher training in this field. The context of this work is interested in showing how environmental education clubs can contribute to the improvement of environmental learning and education in qualifying secondary schools. The difficulty of combining environmental education with the teaching of life and earth sciences is associated with the difficulty of linking all school disciplines within a reformed national curriculum. The difficulties raised regarding the institutionalization of the EVE are very real and internationally encountered, but remain diluted through the sum of all the problems related to the new curricula. Despite all the socio-educational, political and economic constraints, it is important to insist that environmental education has its place in the fundamental education of young citizens today in a world they contribute to building. The systematic integration of the environmental dimension in the Moroccan education system can be conceived in two parallel ways: the disciplinary contents that must ensure the construction of skills and solid theoretical knowledge on the environment in the learners by providing them with the necessary knowledge as well as the practical and extracurricular activities provided by the clubs of the environment, considered a crucial and compulsory field, which allows multidimensional teaching linked to the concerns of society.

PT Bukit Asam Dermaga Kertapati Unit (PTBA Derti) is a State-Owned Enterprise (BUMN) in the coal mining business. As a coal distribution firm, PT Bukit Asam Unit Dermaga Kertapati is required to practice Corporate Social Innovation (CSI) and environmental social responsibility in the area surrounding its activities. The PTBA Derti CSI program is carried out in Sukamoro Village under the name "LENTERA Sukamoro". It focuses on community development that is commensurate with the community's social, economic, and environmental situations. This study aims to investigate, from the viewpoint of program participants, the results of a corporate social innovation (CSI) initiative in community development. Data was gathered through surveys, questionnaires, and in-depth interviews with 15 LENTERA Sukamoro program participants, PT Bukit Asam Dermaga Kertapati, and local government heads and officials. The study discovered that the "LENTERA Sukamoro" program from PTBA Derti was able to solve a variety of difficulties in Sukamoro Village, including a large number of housewives who do not have jobs or engage in productive activities, poverty, a lack of skills, and unproductive land issues. The "LENTERA Sukamoro" program enables the community to enhance its skills and capacities, raise income and welfare, and gain access to renewable energy. This study adds to the limited literature on CSI in Indonesia by examining how commercial organizations in the country contribute to community development through CSI. This study's findings should be valuable to community development practitioners, CSI providers, and researchers.

In the current era, the implementation of character education is crucial for any country. Japan and Indonesia are two nations that have educational goals centered around character building. However, the execution of character education in these two countries follows different concepts. Despite these differences, both countries share the same objective: to create a quality nation. This study employs a library research method, an activity that utilizes written sources as references to obtain information and data related to the discussed topic. These data and information sources are obtained from various literature, such as books, articles, magazines, and both printed and online websites relevant to the discussion. Japan is known for its strong character education, which is integrated into the school curriculum and extracurricular activities. Meanwhile, in Indonesia, character education is still in the developmental stage, with several new programs and initiatives being launched. However, it still needs to be fully integrated into the overall education system.

HIGH FREQUENCY OF BATS IN THE DIET OF THE BARN OWL TYTO ALBA IN A LOWLAND DRY FOREST IN TOLIMA, COLOMBIA
Authors: Baldrich Laura María , Castellanos Ronald , De Luna Ana Gabriela , Link Andrés
Published: July 2024

The cosmopolitan distribution of the Barn Owl Tyto alba and its relatively well documented diet through the study of pellets have provided evidence of the broad diversity of prey it relies on. In most studies, both in tropical and temperate regions, rodents are its main prey, with other small mammals and vertebrates, and insects complementing its diet. Although bats have been recorded in the diet of T. alba at many localities, they seldom represent an important part of its diet. This study describes the diet of a small colony of T. alba from a mosaic of agricultural fields, pastures for cattle ranching and tropical dry forests in Tolima, central Colombia. Overall, we collected 516 pellets between 2016 and 2017 in a non-systematic manner, and recovered 335 skulls of rodents (67%), bats (29%), birds (3%) and shrews (1%), as well as invertebrate prey. The large proportion of bats in the diet of T. alba in this study is only matched by a few other studies, and further documents the wide range of prey included in the diet of this nocturnal raptor. This is one of the first studies on the diet of T. alba in tropical dry forests in Colombia and complements the existing data on its diet in the American tropics and worldwide.

Published: July 2024

Sabe-se que a amamentação é de extrema importância no desenvolvimento da criança devido aos inúmeros benefícios que a prática oferece. Dentre os benefícios, é possível destacar o aumento do vínculo entre a mãe e o bebê e a proteção imunológica oferecida à criança por meio da ingestão de imunoglobulinas presentes no leite. O colostro, primeiro leite produzido pela mãe, é extremamente importante nessa imunização adquirida do recém-nascido (RN), visto que ele é rico em proteínas e anticorpos. O colostro prematuro possui ainda uma quantidade maior dessas proteínas, o que lhe confere a capacidade de promover uma melhor imunidade adquirida para a criança, o que seria de grande importância devido aos inúmeros procedimentos invasivos que os recém- nascidos prematuros enfrentam, o que aumenta o risco de infecção. Entretanto, as crianças prematuras geralmente são privadas da alimentação nos primeiros dias de vida, ficando restritas a esses benefícios proporcionados pelo colostro. A colostroterapia vem com o intuito de fornecer os benefícios de proteção imunológica ao recém-nascido prematuro sem a necessidade de deglutição em função do volume mínimo utilizado do colostro. O presente artigo tem como função a revisão bibliográfica para a avaliação da eficácia e da importância da utilização dessa conduta.

Today's story is a similar one, but without the happy end.
The role of rationality and intuition in creating strategic military documents
Authors: Štěpánková Eva , Binková Kristýna
Published: July 2024

Background: Managers can plan strategically based on a rational and/or intuitive approach. In the past, intuition and rationality were seen as opposing approaches, one or the other of which was used. Currently available sources confirm the combination of both approaches as effective, and thus their complementarity. Purpose: The main goal of the paper is to reveal the characteristics of using intuition and rationality in the process of creating the strategic documents of the Ministry of Defence of the Czech Republic (MoD CR). Further, there are two sub-goals: to analyse the proportions, characteristics and consequences of using the revealed ratio of intuition and rationality in the process mentioned. Study design/methodology/approach: The general research design is a qualitative paradigm. The data were collected through a semi-structured questionnaire. The sample amounted to 18 authors of strategic documents of the MoD CR. The data were evaluated using the grounded theory method, which defines the procedures of open and axial coding of the text. The arrangement of relationships between the identified data categories was carried out using a paradigmatic model according to grounded theory. Findings/conclusions: The conclusions confirm the use of a combination of intuition and rationality in the process of creating strategic documents. However, intuition prevails in the ratio of both approaches, which can be the cause of not quite optimal output. Processed strategic documents suffer from some shortcomings (i.e. inconsistency of formal and content aspects, insufficient measurability, objectivity and comparability), which are related to insufficient or incorrect use of exact methods and a systematic approach. Limitations/future research: The conclusions are valid for the MoD CR, specifically for the process of creating strategic documents. It would be useful to compare them with other types of organizations in the state, public and private sectors. The use of intuition and rationality in other processes of strategic management can be examined and compared with the processes of middle and lower management.
La ontología fundamental en Heidegger como crítica de la razón pura y sus consecuencias para el antropologismo
Authors: Jiménez Alba
Published: July 2024

El presente trabajo trata de explicitar en qué medida el proyecto de M. Heidegger de una ontología fundamental coincide con el programa crítico kantiano. Dicha identificación permitirá mostrar las consecuencias que ello depara en la recepción y crítica heideggeriana de la antropología filosófica como disciplina; recepción que, a su vez, delimita los presupuestos fundamentales de su analítica de la existencia.
De la “erraticidad trágica” al “errar sin tragedia”. Sendas del Barroco hispano en el transbarroco
Authors: Sáez Rueda Luis
Published: July 2024

En la ontología del Barroco hispano es supuesta una espectral despresencia de lo infinito en la finitud del mundo. A ella están vinculadas una erraticidad de lo humano y del mundo mismo. Esta errancia implica una comprensión trágica de la existencia. En el espacio contemporáneo, esta ontología reaparece como Transbarroco, inmanentizando el infinito. Una de sus expresiones fundamentales tiene lugar en el pensamiento de la diferencia de M. Heidegger (en el que es finalmente obstruida), así como en el de J. Derrida y J.-L. Nancy, que radicalizan al primero y reabren lo transbarroco, aunque a costa de afirmar una errancia sin tragedia.

Early Laparotomy: A Necessity for Postoperative Intraperitoneal Hemorrhage
Authors: Rawal Suniti , Paudyal Pooja
Published: July 2024

Introduction: Haemorrhage is considered the dreaded complications following any surgery. “Relaparotomy” is a better described terminology for a repeat case postoperative haemorrhage in gynecological surgeries. With increased awareness and early detection and subsequent rise in gynaecological operations have led additional incidence of relaparotomies and further in morbidity and mortality.
Methods: The study was conducted from April 2006 - March 2017 including cases of re/laparotomy for intraperitoneal bleeding at TUTH, Nepal.
Results: There were 27 cases of intraperitoneal hemorrhage majorly from 20 abdominal surgeries comprising 12(44.4%) abdominal hysterectomies, 6 (22.2%) laparotomy, 1(3.7%) each of diagnostic laparoscopy and abdomino perineal approach and 7(26%) vaginal hysterectomies. Features of hypovolaemic shock in 14(51.8%), marked abdominal distention in 9(33.3%) and blood loss of 400 to 3000 ml was observed. Five (18.5%) cases of active bleeding from pedicales were secured. Oozing from various sites (10, 37%) cured with haemostatic sutures. Generalised oozing post diagonistic laproroscopy, subtotal hysterectomy was done (1, 3.7%). In 2 (7.4%) cases bleeding from fallopian tube and mesosapinx were sutured. Six (22.2%) hematomas were evacuated and bleeders secured. Dissection of left uterosacrial ligament and tearing of infundibulopelvic ligaments (1, 3.7%) were reinforced and sutured. Sputter in the vault (1, 3.7%) were ligated and isolated rise in PT (1, 3.7%) with FFP transfusion. Two succumbed to death, one following diagnostic laparoscopy from adult respiratory distress syndrome and next from VH with PFR anesthetic complications.
Conclusion: Proper closure of surgical incision with the right technique, appropriate ligature, careful tying of the blood vessel, monitoring pulse rate and blood pressure in postoperative cases can minimize the morbidity and mortality.

Published: July 2024

Introduction: The bifurcation of trachea into two primary bronchi at the level of fourth thoracic vertebra creates an angle at the bifurcation. This angle can be seen clearly in routine chest X-rays where the measurement can throw light on many medical conditions within the mediastinum. This study aimed at finding the subcarinal angle, which is the angle formed by inferior borders of two primary bronchi.
Methods: The measurements were taken from photographs of tracheal specimen of 92 cadavers, 63 male and 29 female. Angle was measured by photographic software and analysis of subcarinal angle was done in the study population.
Results: The mean subcarinal angle was found to be 41.090 with standard deviation of 17.140. This measurement was found to be significantly more in males (68.02± 15.720) than in females (60.14 ± 17.710).
Conclusion: The subcarinal angles in the study population were seen to be different among sexes. Also, the mean subcarinal angles from other studies, radiological or on specimen were close to the observations made in this study.

Introduction: Nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) is the standard of care for clinical T1 (cT1), renal mass less than 7 cm, whenever intervention is indicated. It has oncological outcome equivalent to radical nephrectomy in small renal masses and it also minimizes the progression to chronic kidney disease. However, there is paucity of data on outcomes of NSS in Nepalese population.
Methods: A six years retrospective review of medical records of patients undergoing partial nephrectomy from Jan 2012 to Dec 2017 in Department of Urology and Kidney Transplant Surgery at Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital was done to determine its demographics and outcomes.
Results: Twenty-eight patients underwent nephron sparing surgery for clinical T1 renal masses in the past six years. Complications occurred in three cases. Five of the lesions were benign and 23 malignant on final histology. Clear cell carcinoma was the commonest variant of renal cell cancer. Margin was positive in two cases and both were kept in close surveillance. There was no local recurrence and renal impairment during five to 60 months follow-up.
Conclusion: Nephron sparing surgery is a safe procedure with good oncological outcome for clinical T1 renal mass. It prevents unnecessary nephrectomy in benign lesions as well as chronic renal impairment at the same time.

Introduction: Malnutrition is one of the most common complications of liver cirrhosis. Yet, little attention is paid in evaluating nutrition in this group of patients. This study aims to assess malnutrition among cirrhotic patients using a nutrition screening tool and anthropometry.
Methods: This was a prospective, observational study of admitted patients with liver cirrhosis. In the study duration of 3 months, 50 patients met the inclusion criteria and were included. Nutritional assessment was performed using the Royal Free Hospital Nutritional Prioritizing Tool (RFH-NPT), BMI and standard anthropometry including TSF, MUAC and MAMC.
Results: The mean age was 51.56 ± 11.50 with a Male to Female ratio of 3:2. Chronic alcohol consumption (72%) was the most common etiology while management of tense ascites (40%) was the most common reason for hospital admission. 58% had Child Pugh Class C cirrhosis while the remaining 42% were Class B. The average MELD Na score was 19.64 ± 6. Significant differences in anthropometric measurements including BMI, MUAC, TSF and MAMC were found between Child B and C cirrhosis. Similarly, those patients who had low, moderate and high risk of malnutrition by the RFH-NPT had significant differences in anthropometric measurements between them.
Conclusion: A significant number of patients had moderate to severe risk of malnutrition that correlated well with anthropometric measurements. The degree of malnutrition is parallel with the severity of liver disease among these patients. Both the RFH-NPT and anthropometry are relatively easy to perform and effective. Hence, they can be used as a practical means for identifying malnutrition among cirrhotic patients in routine clinical practice.

Published: July 2024

Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a public health problem of epidemic proportion. Several studies have shown low serum vitamin D levels in patients with COPD. The aim of this study was to compare serum vitamin D level in patients with Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Diseases (GOLD) COPD stage II, III and IV with controls and correlate serum vitamin D level with severity of COPD.
Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted from June 2014 to November 2015 at Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital (TUTH). A total of 154 subjects were enrolled for study that consisted of 77 cases of COPD and 77 controls for comparison. Participants were taken from medical wards and outpatient department. COPD staging was done as per GOLD guidelines and stage II, III and IV were labeled as advanced COPD cases. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were performed in SPSS version 20.
Results: Stage II, III and IV COPD were 30%, 36% and 34% respectively. Mean serum vitamin D level was 15.16±7.19 ng/ml in COPD cases and 33.99±12.37 ng/ml in healthy controls showing statistically significant relation of low serum vitamin D in patients with advanced COPD (p <0.0001). Serum vitamin D was found to be in decreasing trend with increasing severity of COPD.
Conclusion: Patients with advanced COPD (GOLD stage II, III and IV) had low serum vitamin D levels compared to normal population and serum vitamin D level correlated with GOLD severity in Nepalese patients with COPD.
