Sistem Prosedur Penjualan, Pembelian dan Penyimpanan bagi UMKM Manufaktur
Authors: Widyasari Permata ayu , Sugiarti Yenny , Krishna Nyoman Budhiswara
Published: November 2021

Sistem Manajemen Persediaan sangat penting bagi UMKM. Pertama, karena kebutuhan keakuratan jumlah persediaan. Kedua, untuk efisiensi proses operasional. Terakhir, untuk mengamankan aset perushaan. Permasalahan yang menjadi prioritas MITRA adalah lemahnya sistem manajemen persediaan. Selama ini pemilik dan staf administrasi tidak mengetahui dengan tepat jumlah persediaan per varian sehingga kadang proses pemenuhan order penjualan harus tertunda/terlambat karena jumlah persediaan belum mencukupi. Tidak adanya informasi mengenai jumlah tiap varian yang tepat juga menyulitkan bagian administrasi untuk menyesuaikan jumlah aset perusahaan (persediaan ) di laporan keuangan. Proses pengawasan terhadap persediaan juga sulit dilakukan. Program pengabdian ini berusaha untuk mengatasi hal tersebut dengan merancang sistem penjualan, pembelian dan penyimpanan sederhana sebagai bagian dari manajemen persediaan. Hasilnya, saat ini tersedia informasi jumlah persediaan bahan baku dan barang jadi untuk setiap varian, sehingga proses perencanaan produksi dan penjualan dapat dilakukan dengan lebih baik. Ketepatan waktu pengiriman barang ke pelanggan dapat ditingkatkan, jumlah aset di laporan keuangan tersaji secara akurat, dan pengawasan terhadap persediaan lebih mudah untuk dilakukan.

Of the many films that are presented on the big screen, they have offered various colors in such a way, of course, adapted to the phenomena that are happening in society. Among them are the variety of films that are presented on the big screen, some are moral messages that are so constructive and in accordance with actual events in society, one of which is the short film “Tilik”. The research method used is qualitative in the form of semiotic analysis of Tilik Film Representations, this approach also allows researchers to use data as well as possible to be able to develop components of analytical, conceptual, categorical and flexible information. There are many signs in Tilik Film which have implied meanings. Director Tilik is very good at wrapping moral messages through the daily life of the village community through a film that only lasts 32 minutes, 34 seconds. These signs are displayed through several aspects such as the setting and setting of the film, shooting techniques, characters and dialogue between characters, scenes made by players, to the selection of the wardrobe of the characters in the film Tilik. These aspects then help build the film's storyline that produces moral messages. Keywords: representation, roland barthes semiotics, film
DIALEKTIKA HEGEL (TESIS-ANTITESIS-SINTESIS) DALAM ETIKA DAN FILSAFAT BERKOMUNIKASI ERA KONTEMPORER
Authors: Al Azis Muhammad Rachdian
Published: November 2021

Dalam dunia kontemporer yang sudah serba terdigitalisasi, pemanfaat teknologimenjadi marak dipergunakan. Hal yang sama juga berlaku di dalam dunia komunikasi.Manusia sebagai makhluk sosial tentu memiliki kecenderungan untuk terus mencari manusialain untuk proses pertukaran pesan. Media sosial sebagai wujud pemanfaatan teknologi tadidipergunakan untuk kepanjangan indrawi manusia dalam kemampuan berinteraksi. Dalamprosesnya, adanya mesin-mesin tadi yang terbungkus dalam istilah teknologi ini kemudianmenimbulkan pertanyaan, apakah pemanfaatannya dibarengi dengan etika—sebuah konsepsiyang menimbang baik-buruk—mengingat banyak platform berbasis internet memungkinkanproses komunikasi tanpa perlu repot terlebih dahulu saling bertukar pandang.Masih segar dalam ingatan, kasus Jrx, penabuh drum SID yang mencantumkanpostingan di sosial media “IDI kacung WHO” sehingga berujung pada pelanggaran pasal 28ayat (2) jo Pasal 45A ayat (2) dan/atau pasal 27 ayat (3) jo pasal 45 ayat (3) jo pasal 45 ayat(3) UU Informasi dan Transaksi Elektronik dan/atau pasal 310 KUHP dan/atau pasal 311KUHP. Meski disangkakan seabrek pasal, Jrx berdalih dirinya hanya memperjuangkan nyawarakyat. “Kritik saya ini untuk ibu-ibu yang menjadi korban akibat dari kebijakan kewajiban rapid test (sebagai syarat administrasi).”Muncul kemudian pertanyaan, mengapa klaim yang begitu heroik dari niat yang begitu mulia kemudian bisa bermuara pada pelanggaran hukum? Di mana letak kesalahan komunikasinya? Apakah konten postingan yang menyebut IDI kacung WHO? Apakah karena cara kritik yang kurang relevan? Lalu bagaimana cara kritik yang pantas dan relevan? Apakah medium penyalur kritik tersebut sudah tepat? Apakah yang dilakukan oleh yang bersangkutan sudah sejalan dengan niat pemanfaatan sosial media selaku medium? Apakah dalam membuat postingan, yang bersangkutan sudah melewati proses pemikiran panjang? Apakah yang bersangkutan memahami pentingnya etika dalam menyampaikan pendapat? Atau apakah pemahaman etika sendiri di Indonesia kemudian sudah bergeser? Pertanyaan-pertanyaan tersebut di muka tentu menghadirkan pertanyaan yang jauh lebih filosofis: Apakah etika masih ditempatkan pada suatu tempat yang layak, yakni yang disebut Spinoza dalam karyanya, The Ethics, agar manusia hendaknya tidak terbawa oleh perasaannya.Benar jika dibilang Spinoza adalah seorang realism. Seorang Pantheis yang kemudian menyamakan Tuhan dengan alam itu sendiri. Tapi dialah yang mula-mula (jika boleh dikatakan) bersama Immanuel Kant keluar dari paham dogmatis Yahudi dan/atau Kristiani untuk kemudian menjadikan filasafat sebagai pisau dalam membedah fenomena yang ada.Sehingga agaknya, dapat dijadikan sebagai salah satu pegangan dalam konteksnya relevansi dengan kehidupan di Indonesia yang tak hanya ke-beragam-an dan ke-ber-agama-an.

Chemical Peels: Wound Treatment for up to Three Months Post Peel Recuperative Phase.
Authors: Jackson Luke , Nicholas Ethan , Mason Robert , Owen Landon
Published: November 2021

The cutaneous ageing process whether skin laxity, facial wrinkles, ageing pigmantory spots is a continuous process which is invariably difficult to stop, despite the recent advances in science and medicine. Moreover, to combat the signs of ageing, chemical peels may be used to help ameliorate the scars, to destroy premalignant and/or malignant lesions, unsightly pigmentation etc. The treatment modalities used to produce a controlled injury are dermabrasion, chemical peels and photoepilation (laser and intense pulse light) therapy. Only if the injury is in the proper tissue plane can the desired result be achieved. If too superficial, the results will be disappointing. If too deep, the results can be catastrophic. The chemical peeling creates a controlled injury in an attempt to correct a particular problem. Historically, various chemical peels used such as phenol, trichloroacetic acid as single agent or in combination. Recently, newer agents have been introduced into the world of chemical peeling. These newer agents are used in combination for resistant hyperpigmentation or combined with intense pulse light microdermabrasion for acne scarring to achieve satisfactory results.

Authors: Dylan Benjamin , Wyatt Hayden , Ricardo Cesar , Troy Mitchell
Published: November 2021

In Brazil there is an average of 30,000 cases of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis reported annually, and around the world it happens for about each 20 seconds. Although there are still opportunities to contribute with studies about this disease; supporting the medical community, especially dermatologists, mainly because of the necessity of knowing that a relatively simple procedure can result such a relevant trauma. Female patients presented erythematous plaque in the limb. Lesion appeared days after laser sessions for hair removal. Biopsy showed amastigotes forms and positive culture. After unsuccessful treatment it was managed with N-methyl glucamine 20 mgSbV/kg/day, during 20 days, there was significant improvement of the clinical picture. This study aims to present a case report of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis initiated after local trauma. Literature reports describe primary or secondary lesions of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis elicited after a local trauma. The mechanism used in order to explain these events was the migration of infected macrophages induced by cytokines. Similar events have also been reported as part of the locus minoris resistentiae concept that comprises situations in which microorganisms have a tendency to settle at places of weakened resistance. Considering that Leishmaniasis lesions are usually developed in promastigote forms are inoculated by the Phlebotominae, in this case it was noted that the infection has been favored by the local trauma.

Many innovative cosmetics are nowadays based on the concomitant use of ingenious materials (e.g. conventional or innovative emulsions, nanoparticles for deeper skin penetration) and plant extracts, encapsulated in them, exerting strong anti-oxidant properties enough to prevent premature skin aging and/or whitening properties, thereby capable of satisfying populations with physiological or pathological skin pigmentation [1-4]. However, the high cost related to the design and development of such products as well physical-chemical stability issues encountered in most of the considered “final products” represent few of the most important limitations for safer efficacy in translational medicine
Elevated Salivary Il-1β, Pge2 And Mmp-3 Levels And Their Significant Reduction Post Therapy In Patients With Chronic Periodontitis Compared To Healthy Individuals
Authors: Jir Ebrahim , Mina Khosrow , MD Saeed
Published: November 2021

Background: The role of IL-1β, PGE2 and MMP-3 in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease is well researched. This study aimed to asses and compared the salivary IL-1β, PGE2 and MMP-3 levels in patients with untreated chronic severe periodontitis and those treated with periodontal phase I therapy and periodontally healthy individuals as controls, in relationship to the presence of salivary anti-β1 IgA. Methods: A total of 30 subjects participate in the study: 15 subjects had chronic severe periodontitis and 15 were healthy individuals used as a control. After saliva collection and its purification, we quantify by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) procedure using as coating antigen a synthetic β1 peptide with an amino acid sequence identical to the second extracellular loop of the human β1 adrenoceptor (β1 AR), the presence of anti β1 AR antibody (IgA) in the saliva of patients and healthy individuals. Also, IL-1β, PGE2, nitrites and metalloproteinase 3 (MMP-3) were assessed using ELISA) assay. Results: Our data indicated that IL-1β, PGE2, nitrites and MMP-3 levels are elevated in the saliva of patients with untreated chronic severe periodontitis and were significantly higher than in healthy subjects. Also, the amounts of anti- β1 IgA in the saliva was significantly higher compared with that of healthy individuals. After periodontal phase I therapy these levels of inflammatory biomarkers are significantly reduced but the titres of the antibody did not change, suggesting a close association between salivary IL-1β, PGE2, nitrites and MMP-3 and periodontitis without any changes in the levels of anti β1 IgA. Conclusions: These results suggest that the abnormal amount of these cytokines and enzymes in saliva has potential monitoring applications as a risk marker of the disease progression but the raised levels of anti β1 IgA present in the saliva of chronic severe periodontitis patient, are not directly associated with the course of the disease. Additional studies are needed to validate this assumption.

Conclusion: Most Ghanaian doctors are unaware of ongoing trials in their specialty and thus do not refer patients for recruitment.
Mind’s selective attention to previous experience
Authors: Theofilidis Antonis , Kargopoulos Filipos
Published: November 2021

The basic arguments for a mental image model of thought are based on neuropsychological evidence. France (2000) found that the same brain regions are activated during both mental representation and actual perception, while Bishiah (1993) found that brain traumas that affected perception, also affected the ability to create mental images. Pylyshyn(2003) on the other hand, argues that all mental images are guided by ‘’cognitive penetrability’’, thus on their very basis, are manipulated by certain propositional elements. Given this difficulty, Kargopoulos (2009) hinted towards further research, featuring shapes and solid objects, for which subjects have no priorextensive knowledge. This would force subjects to use non-semantic strategies of representation, meaning mental imagery. Hinton’s (1979) cube problem conforms to these requirements. Hinton’s problem aligns with the idea that spatial tasks (especially tasks with cubes that change layout) are guided by propositional cues (our knowledge about squares) and supports Pylyshyn’s position. Using one of the simplest objects, a cube, Hinton showed that as soon as this shape changes its mental arrangement in space, even suspicious -as to the nature of the experiment- participants will make mistakes that are not present when they manipulate a mental image of the cube sitting on its typicalarray. Aim: Our goal was to investigate the relationship between spatio-visual skill and the ability for mental partitioning in healthy subjects. Methodology: We used 2 groups (344 participants) a control and an experimental one. In the control group, we presented a Moebius’ strip, in the experimental group, we presented the same Moebius’ strip and asked them to mentally represent it. All participants asked to mentally partition the strip. Results: Of the 344 participants, only 31 managed to give the correct number of vertices in space. Though people had a hard time manipulating the cube’s mental image, their success rates were much higher for the Hinton 1 task in which propositional representation was more accessible. Only 9 of the 344 participants could find the correct answer for the Moebius strip task in which mental manipulation of the strip image was impossible. Conclusions: We come to the conclusion that the relationship between ‘’seeing’’ and ‘’knowing’’ is more complex, not just on the level of the mental image level but also on the level of perception. Our findings bring back to the scientific background the idea that the mind’s selective attention to previous experience and cognitive schemas will decidedly affect human thought.

Grain Growth Control of Dielectric and Magnetic Ceramics
Authors: Moon Kyoung-Seok
Published: November 2021

The sintering process transported the atoms in the materials by decreasing the total interface energy. The microstructure changes as a result of grain growth and densification under the capillary driving force due to the interface curvature among grains. The grain growth rate is expressed as the product of the interface mobility and the driving force. According to grain growth theories, the mobility of the interface governed by diffusion control is constant but interface mobility is nonlinear when the movement of an interface is governed by interface reaction. As the growth rate is nonlinear for the regime of interface reaction control, the grain growth is nonstationary with annealing time. The microstructure can be controlled by changing the growth rate of an individual grain with the correlation between the maximum driving force and the critical driving force for appreciable growth. The present paper discusses applications of the principle in the fabrication of dielectric and magnetic ceramic materials.
“Generation III” Piezoelectric Single Crystals Developed by Solid-State Single Crystal Growth Method
Authors: LEE Ho-Yong
Published: November 2021

Crystallographically engineered Relaxor-PT single crystals, specifically PMN-PT (Generation I) and PIN-PMN-PT/PMN-PZT (Generation II), offer much higher piezoelectric and electromechanical coupling coefficients (d33>1,500 pC/N, k33>0.9), when compared to polycrystalline PZT-5H ceramics (d33>600 pC/N, k33>0.75). Recently Ceracomp Co., Ltd. (www.ceracomp.com) has developed the solid-state single crystal growth (SSCG) technique and successfully fabricated Gen III PMN-PZT single crystals modified with acceptors or donors. The piezoelectric constants (d33) of (001) Gen III PMN-PZT single crystals were measured to be higher than 4,000 pC/N and thus about two times higher than those of PMN-PT/PZN-PT (Gen I) and PIN-PMN-PT/PMN-PZT (Gen II) single crystals. The Gen III PMN-PZT single crystals have been firstly applied to single crystal-epoxy composites, ultrasonic transducers, piezoelectric sensors, and piezoelectric actuators. In this paper we introduce the development of Gen III PMN-PZT single crystals, piezoelectric composites and multilayer single crystal actuators.
Giant Grain Growth in (K,Na)NbO3 Ceramics
Authors: Park Seonhwa , Lee Jung Woo , Cho Kyung-Hoon , Min Yuho , Ahn Cheol-Woo
Published: November 2021

In this manuscript, an interesting phenomenon is reported. It has been reported that the growth of single crystals is observed in donor-doped (K,Na)NbO3 (KNN)-based ceramics. It is very interesting that the growth happens without the addition of a seed. The growth of huge grains (single crystal, approximately 30 mm,) occurs due to the abnormal grain growth (AGG) in KNN-based ceramics. In the AGG compositions, moreover, the seed plates can be synthesized by not topochemical reaction but simple molten salt synthesis (SMSS) which is a simple-and-cheap process. They can be a good candidate for the seeds at reactive templated grain growth (RTGG) or templated grain growth (TGG) process.

Depuis plus de 20 ans, les acteurs de la santé et l’Union européenne collaborent afin de développer ce que l’on nomme aujourd’hui les thérapies numériques (digital therapeutics — DTx). Véritable enjeu pour notre système de santé actuel, ces thérapies innovantes peuvent être utilisées seules ou combinées à un médicament, un dispositif médical ou une thérapie, afin de maximiser les effets du traitement. Cet article propose une revue non exhaustive de l’utilisation de la réalité virtuelle, son origine et son fonctionnement. Des résultats significatifs ont été obtenus sur son action analgésique et de distraction à court terme, sur divers événements physiologiques comme les brûlures, la chirurgie cardiaque, le stress, les douleurs musculosquelettiques et neuropathiques. Toutefois, ce champ d’études reste vaste et nécessite des explorations (études) complémentaires sur les douleurs chroniques et aiguës, et l’interaction personne–machine.
