Community-based Water Management (CBWM) in Thailand is fundamentally grounded in the Sufficiency Economy Philosophy (SEP), a concept introduced by King Rama IX in 1974. This approach highlights the importance of self-reliance, active community participation, and the development of locally adapted solutions to foster disaster resilience and promote environmental sustainability. Community-based Fire and Water Management (CBFWM) represents an integrated strategy designed to address environmental challenges, particularly wildland fires and smoke haze, which are prevalent in the Upper ASEAN region, specifically within the Lower Mekong River Basin. By combining water and fire management, this holistic approach not only strengthens community resilience to climate change but also enhances local livelihoods in a sustainable manner. Given that social issues often serve as the primary drivers of wildland fires, this approach provides strategies focused on building community capacity to independently maintain ecosystem sustainability while addressing economic and environmental challenges.

Authors: M. Abd Zaid Mustafa , Abed Mohammed Ahmed
Published: January 2025

This review focuses on the versatility of hybrid models in diabetes prediction, for which early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for patients. Hybrid models have an advantage over traditional approaches since they utilize a combination of machine learning and deep learning to overcome several restrictions inherent in conventional techniques in terms of feature extraction, accuracy, and robustness. Among the structures discussed in this paper, Combine Convolutional Neural Networks and Long Short Term Memory (CNN-LSTM), Support Vector Machine (SVM) with clustering or Decision Tree, and ensemble methods all show high capabilities of capturing the patterns in the diabetes datasets. Analyses state that current typical implementations of hybrid models, intense machine learning, and machine learning achieve the finest steadiness and predictability. However, the following challenges are still experienced: high computational demand, data demands, and interpretability. The subsequent studies should enhance the clinical relevance of these models, including efforts to interpret these models, combine electronic health records, and improve models’ ability to work in real-time before contributing to more effective healthcare solutions for diabetes.

Kompetisi Portugal-Belanda dalam Perdagangan Senjata Api di Nusantara, 1498-1641
Authors: Kurnia Krisnaldi Putra , Zakaria Mumuh Muhsin , Mahzuni Dade
Published: January 2025

Firearms and gunpowder are commodities commonly sold during the early European arrival to Indonesia, including Nusantara. Similar to the spice trade, there was intense competition among the Europeans in arms trading. With that, the orientation of this research is to show the rivalry between 2 main trading factions on trading in Nusantara during the 16th and 17th centuries: Portugal and The Netherlands. As a historical study, this research applies the historical method as its research method. Reconstruction results show that European traders’ decision to make firearms an import commodity cannot be separated from the popularity of the war instrument in the warfare of their home continent. Initially, Portugal managed to consolidate its power as a dominant firearms trader in Nusantara after they conquered Malacca in 1511. Their domination slowly faded after the arrival of VOC ships during the late 16th century culminating in the takeover of Malacca in 1641. Therefore, it can be said that the firearms trading competition in Nusantara during this period reflects the trend of warfare at the time alongside the relations of various European nations outside their homelands.

Published: January 2025

This study aims to reconstruct the activities of colonial expansion and tiger hunting in Sumatra, focusing on the motives, methods, and impacts on the tiger population and local communities. The primary objective of this research is to understand the various factors driving tiger hunting and how these activities affect the tiger population. The research methods include literature review and historical document analysis, encompassing colonial reports, archives, and photographs using a narrativism approach, a methodology in the philosophy of history used to reconstruct the past. The findings indicate that tiger hunting was driven not only by the need to protect humans but also by colonial expansion motives and as a symbol of social status. Furthermore, intensive hunting caused a significant decline in the tiger population. These wild animals have become victims of colonial modernization ambitions. Hunting, driven by infrastructure development, has deprived them of their habitat and threatened their survival.

Published: January 2025

The emergence of the Salafi movement in Indonesia, carrying the mission of purifying Islamic teachings, is always an interesting subject to study due to its teachings often conflicting with those of mainstream Islamic groups adhering to Ahlussunnah Wal Jama’ah. The aim of this research is to identify the typology and social relations of the Salafi group in Aikmel District. To achieve this objective, the researcher employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. This method was chosen to provide an in-depth description of the typology and social relations of the Salafi group in Aikmel District. Data analysis utilizes the qualitative model of Miles and Huberman, which consists of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The research findings indicate that the community's perception of the Salafi congregation in Aikmel District can be categorized into two typologies. First, there are Salafi congregations that exhibit an exclusive attitude and remain steadfast in their teachings. Sociologically, these Salafi groups avoid building social relations and communication with non-Salafi Islamic groups. Second, there are Salafi congregations that are tolerant and inclusive. This type of Salafi group sociologically demonstrates social sensitivity by showing inclusive, tolerant attitudes, respect, and upholding brotherhood. They participate in religious rituals or practices commonly conducted by non-Salafi Islamic groups, such as the nine-day death tahlilan, the commemoration of the Prophet Muhammad's birthday, and others. This study aims to challenge the stereotype that all Salafi congregations are exclusively rigid in their teachings. It demonstrates that, in Aikmel District, there are also Salafi congregations that are inclusive and tolerant.

Authors: Patrick Olise  , Lois Kumiwaa Opoku  , Nicholas Mensah
Published: January 2025

The U.S. industrial sector, characterized by complex operations and high-risk environments, faces significant challenges in ensuring workplace safety and maintaining asset reliability. This study examines the efficacy of Advanced Safety Leadership Training Programs (ASLTPs) in reducing workplace accidents and enhancing asset performance. The research synthesizes evidence from diverse methodologies, including case studies, comparative analyses, and integration of advanced technologies, to evaluate the impact of these programs. Key data sources include longitudinal studies assessing accident reduction, surveys measuring safety culture improvements, and operational metrics comparing organizations with and without ASLTPs. Notably, ASLTPs are linked to a 20–50% reduction in workplace accidents, with enhanced hazard recognition and proactive safety communication observed among trained employees. Leadership behaviors were examined through frameworks of transactional and transformational training, showing significant cultural shifts toward safety-first mindsets in organizations. To support findings on asset reliability, the study analyzed metrics such as equipment uptime and maintenance efficiency, with ASLTP-trained leaders demonstrating a 15–25% improvement in operational reliability. Emerging technologies, including IoT sensors, predictive analytics, and digital twin simulations, were evaluated alongside immersive safety training techniques like VR/AR. These innovations, when integrated into ASLTPs, empowered leaders to implement data-driven decisions and preemptively address maintenance issues. The findings underscore the role of safety leadership in fostering continuous improvement, reducing human error (the cause of 80% of workplace accidents), and aligning safety protocols with operational goals. By combining behavioral insights with advanced tools, ASLTPs enable organizations to embed safety into their culture and operations, yielding long-term benefits in accident prevention and asset longevity.

Authors: Agatha Prita Argarini  , Eka Fitria Augustina
Published: January 2025

Introduction: Gingival enlargement is a pathologic condition involving enlargement of the keratinized gingiva. Several factors can contribute to gingival enlargement, including calcium channel blockers. In this paper, we report a case of a middle-aged woman with hypertension who was treated for periodontal disease with gingival enlargement after switching her medication from amlodipine.
Case presentation: A 45-year-old female patient visited the periodontology department of RSGMP Universitas Airlangga complaining of swollen gums. The patient reported that she did not notice when it began, but she was now concerned as they were increasing in size, and it felt painful sometimes since a month ago. Medically, the patient has had hypertension for the past five years (after giving birth to her last child) and has been taking amlodipine 10mg irregularly for the past three years. The patient was diagnosed with moderate generalized chronic periodontitis stage II grade B with drug-induced gingival enlargement.
Case management: A non-surgical approach was given to the patient, including effective plaque control and reducing, discontinuing, or substituting the suspected medication and local application of antibiotics.
Conclusion: The optimal treatment approach involves modifying the medication and using conservative periodontal therapy. Surgical intervention should be contemplated solely when the condition fails to respond to alternative therapy. Determining the most effective treatment for each patient and implementing an interdisciplinary approach with collaboration among medical and dental professionals is essential.

Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammation of periodontal tissue as a result of complex interactions between subgingival periodontal pathogenic bacteria and the host immune system. Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis are the periodontopathogenic bacteria that can increase the host inflammatory response and cause tissue damage. Antibacterial agent is needed to inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria so that the periodontal tissues health in periodontitis patients is improved. Objective: To determine the inhibition of spiny amaranth extract (Amaranthus spinosus) on the growth of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis. Methods: This research is an in vitro laboratory experimental research. Spiny amaranth extraction was carried out by maceration. The metabolites content of spiny amaranth extract was analyzed by qualitative and quantitative phytochemical analysis. The inhibition test was carried out by diffusion method. Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis were cultured in BHIB media and then grown in MHA media. Spiny amaranth leaf extract with concentration from 100% to 1.56% was used as independent variable. The samples were incubated at 37⁰C for 24 hours and then the inhibition zone was measured. Results: Spiny amaranth leaf extract showed an inhibitory effect against Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis bacteria at concentrations of 25%, 50%, and 100%. While the extract concentrations of 25%, 12,5%, 6,25%, 3,125%, 1,56%, and negative control did not form an inhibition zone. The findings of the statistical analysis showed a significance level of 0.00000 (p<0.05). Conclusion: Spiny amaranth leaf extract can inhibit the growth of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis.

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is currently a significant global health concern and a leading cause of illness and death. The prevalence of diabetes in adults is estimated to have exceeded three hundred million and is projected to increase by 55% by 2035. The ketogenic diet has been confirmed to increase insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) sufferers.

Purpose: To explain the effect of a ketogenic diet on HbA1c levels in patients with T2DM and provide an overview of its correlation with dental caries.

Discussion: Carbohydrate restriction in the ketogenic diet triggers the mechanism of gluconeogenesis and ketogenesis in the liver and changes the pattern of energy supply to be based on ketone bodies. There is a significant relationship between the risk of dental caries and fasting blood glucose levels as well as HbA1c and salivary glucose. One study showed that T2DM sufferers who had HbA1c ≥ 8.0% had more dental caries than those who had HbA1c 7.0%–7.9%.

Conclusion: A reduction in HbA1c levels resulting from a ketogenic diet intervention may be linked to a lower risk of dental caries in patients with T2DM. However, additional studies are necessary to explore the direct impact of the ketogenic diet on the risk of dental caries in these patients.

Introduction: Patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) often require augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) to support impaired communication. We evaluated the effectiveness of an e-learning program for healthcare students on communication support for patients with ALS, which was adapted from a previous face-to-face program.
Methods: The program included an 85-min preparatory session, 165-min AAC practice session, and 40-min review session. Fifty-five healthcare students completed the program with pre-/post-tests, AAC practices using a transparent communication board (Flick), Kuchimoji, the communication device, subjective burden based on the visual analog scale (VAS), and free-response comments. The participants completed the practice twice over a 6-month interval. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank sum and chi-square tests.
Results: The program was effective in improving knowledge and AAC skills, similar to the face-to-face version. The pre-/post-test scores significantly increased for beginners (from 70 to 80, P<.001) and experienced participants (from 75 to 80, P<.001). However, after 6 months, a significant decrease in the pre-/post-test scores was observed (from 80 to 75, P=.017). In AAC practice, the number of letters transmitted in 5 min significantly increased for Flick (beginner: 27, experienced: 30, P<.001) and Kuchimoji (beginner: 21, experienced: 24, P<.001), with a reduction in subjective burden according to the VAS ratio. Text mining revealed a high frequency of positive sentences in participants’ feedback regarding communication devices.
Conclusions: The e-learning program effectively improved ALS communication support knowledge and skills, with a lower perceived burden than face-to-face training.

Literature review on local government financial performance measurement
Authors: Ida Bagus Agung Haridharma Purba
Published: January 2025

Financial performance of local governments plays a critical role in ensuring the success of fiscal decentralization and sustainable regional development. As fiscal responsibilities shift from central to regional governments, the ability to measure and evaluate financial performance becomes increasingly important. This study synthesizes theoretical frameworks and empirical research to provide a comprehensive understanding of financial performance measurement in local governments. The metrics analysed include Locally Generated Revenue (LGR), Financial Ability Index (FAI), and fiscal independence. The study identifies key challenges in the measurement process, such as dependency on central transfers, variations in economic potential, and inconsistencies in financial reporting. It further explores the formulas and methodologies underlying these metrics, emphasizing their application in evaluating local fiscal health. Policy recommendations focus on standardizing metrics, enhancing technical capacity, and formulating innovative strategies to optimize revenue generation and ensure regional fiscal sustainability.
