Authors: Hulaimi Muhammad , Munadi Sudji , Kurniawan Rahmat , RD Amirul Haq
Published: March 2024

Education is crucial to national growth. Hence, a Link and Match program to provide work-oriented education is needed. This study uses the CIPP Model to assess the link and match policy between vocational high schools (SMK) and business and industry (DUDI). Four vocational schools located in Banda Aceh and Aceh Besar were studied. Data was acquired through expert-validated questionnaires and observation interviews. Quantitative descriptive analysis was used. The research results show that the link and match policy between SMK and DUDI has been appropriate, with an average score of four categories with appropriate criteria for each aspect. However, the implementation process is still hampered because the Aceh Government has not yet prepared a planned and measurable plan in the Strategic Plan for developing vocational education in Aceh to link and match to a vocational education master plan for long-term educational development. As a relevant stakeholder, the Aceh Education Service should clearly state the concept and measurable targets for developing links and matches in vocational schools, including what programs must be prepared to address the strategic issue of strengthening links and matches, especially in vocational schools with DUDI, to meet needs.

The problem of polluted river water quality is part of current environmental problems. A lot of pollution is caused by industrial factory waste, household waste, and rubbish. This causes the condition of the river ecosystem to decline and hurts humans and the environment. Pollution that occurs in rivers is a result of human behavior which increasingly ignores the surrounding environment. The consequences of human behavior that is wrong in treating the river environment will ultimately become a disaster that is detrimental to humans themselves. This research aims to detect whether there is a correlation between knowledge and attitudes held by the community regarding behavior to protect the river environment. The hypothesis proposed in this study is: that behavior to maintain the health of the river environment is influenced by knowledge and attitude variables. The sample in this research was 300 students. The influence of knowledge on behavior has a significant relationship with a p-value of 0.00. The influence of attitudes on behavior has a significant relationship with a p-value of 0.00. There is positive behavior to protect river ecosystems and also environmental sustainability in rivers, but there are also students who behave indifferently towards the environment and tend to be indifferent.

Published: March 2024

BPRS (Bank Pembiayaan Rakyat Syariah) is a bank that conducts its business activities based on Sharia procedures. However, its assets and financing are still relatively small compared to commercial banks. One of the reasons for this is that BPRS is limited in providing services for payment transactions. Therefore, it is important to evaluate the performance and customer satisfaction levels of BPRS. This study aims to measure the efficiency of BPRS performance using the Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) method. The research was conducted at PT. BPRS Bhakti Sumekar, a BPRS owned by the Regency Government of Sumenep. The results of this measurement can be used to evaluate the performance of BPRS Bhakti Sumekar in facing challenges and opportunities as well as for policy making considering its huge impact on the community. The results showed an average Conformity Level (TKi) of 99.57%, indicating that the performance of each attribute has met customer expectations but still requires improvement. The Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) value resulting from this study was 75.45%, indicating that customer satisfaction with BPRS Bhakti Sumekar as a whole can be considered as satisfied. This customer satisfaction is based on the CSI interpretation table, which shows that the value obtained in this study falls in the range of 66% - 80.99%. This suggests that the performance of BPRS Bhakti Sumekar has almost reached customer expectations, leading to a high level of customer satisfaction.

Życie rodzinne jako forma doświadczenia religijnego
Authors: Tułowiecki Dariusz , Czyżkowska Anna
Published: March 2024

Religious experience is an extremely important aspect of sociological and psychological research on religiosity. Psychologist William James laid the foundations for the research activities by analysing his own experiences and those of other emotionally hypersensitive people. Observation of one's "self" in this context allowed for the adoption of a way of defining religious experience and separating it from the category of religious feelings. Nowadays, a number of changes are taking place in the field of religiousness. Not only is social reality "separated" from religion, but also spirituality is defined on the boundary or beyond the categories of the Other or the sacred. Transcendence, spirituality, the reality "beyond" are increasingly seen in encounters with unusual cultural, ecological, virtual or recreational realities. The space of experience considered religious and serving as a component of new spirituality might be a forest,  a sport activity, a city, a library, or a historic space.
The following article is an attempt to reflect on whether family relations can be accepted, defined and researched today as a form of religious experience. If family life is experienced as contact with a reality that goes beyond everyday life, a reality "above"; if it gives meaning to human actions and constitutes a cognitive category; if it is a space of deep personal involvement, it seems that it can be treated and examined in terms of religious experience.
Chrześcijański argument „z sensu życia i świata” wobec buddyjskiego poglądu na rzeczywistość
Authors: Persidok Andrzej
Published: March 2024

The starting point of the article is the „argument from meaning” used in fundamental theology. The authors referring to it argue that only religion can give meaning to human life and the world. A man who does not want to run away from ultimate questions is faced with an alternative: faith in God or nihilism. Among religions, however, there is one that rejects belief in God and in any transcendence, and yet claims to be a source of meaning in life for its adepts. This religion is Buddhism. In this study, an attempt was made to confront the theological argumentation "from the meaning of life and the world" with the Buddhist worldview. The aim of such a confrontation is to locate potential weak points of this type of argumentation, which can help refine it so that it is also convincing for people outside Western culture.
Il Caeremoniale nella storia della Messa Romana
Authors: Celiński Łukasz
Published: March 2024

Historical research must always pass through the critical study of sources. The historical value of a source can be assessed through comparison with other coeval sources, especially if they are of different type or origin, concerning, however, the same reality. The present study proposes an arrangement of the main papal and episcopal ceremonials of the Roman Rite area from the point of view of information related to the ritual performance of the Mass. Since the origins of the Roman ceremonial are to be found in the context of papal liturgies, our contribution also offers a contextual basis for the critical study of other sources such as, for example, medieval papal missals.

Invasomes: A vesicular carrier for transdermal delivery
Authors: Varenya S Sarangamath  , Ganesh N.S  , E. Gopinath  , J Adlin Jino Nesalin  , Vineeth Chandy
Published: March 2024

The transdermal route serves as a crucial pathway for delivering localized or systemic medications. Recognizing the skin's significance as a vital organ, it is imperative to develop effective strategies for drug delivery through this route. Invasomes represent a novel vesicular system that has shown superior transdermal penetration compared to traditional liposomes. Comprising phospholipids, ethanol, and terpene, invasomes exhibit suitable transdermal penetration properties for soft vesicles. These nanovesicles enhance drug permeability into the epidermis while minimizing systemic absorption, thereby confining drug action within the skin subcaste. In comparison to liposomes and ethosomes, invasomes penetrate deeper into the skin. They offer various advantages, including enhancing medication efficacy, improving patient compliance, and enhancing comfort. The ability to access the skin subcaste enhances the effectiveness of invasomes, which exert their effects by fluidizing the bilayer structure of stratum corneum (SC) lipids and disrupting lipid and intracellular protein interactions. These recently discovered vesicles are tailored for use in topical and transdermal drug delivery due to their saturation effect and high deformability, distinguishing them from transferosomes.

Published: March 2024

The Pharmacy Practice Regulations of 2015 were formulated to standardize and enhance pharmacy practices in India. Community pharmacy professionals globally are taking on expanded roles in patient care and health promotion. However, some lack awareness of recommended pharmaceutical care services in new regulations. This knowledge gap poses risks of medication errors and serious consequences, even patient fatalities. To address this, it's crucial to provide ongoing education, enhance communication, integrate technology, ensure regulatory compliance, and establish effective feedback mechanisms within pharmacies. These measures aim to improve knowledge, compliance, and, ultimately, patient safety. This study, conducted in Mangalore over a period of approximately 2.5 months, is a community-based cross-sectional study with a sample size of 100 participants. It included community pharmacists working in Mangalore. Knowledge of community pharmacists were analysed and it was found that out of 100 participants only 18% were aware, 60% were not aware and 22% were not sure about the PPR,2015. In this study, 42% of participants were not aware of the duties outlined in PPR,2015. Among the surveyed pharmacists, 55% believed that adhering to Pharmacy Practice Regulations was essential for improving patient healthcare. In contrast, 20% held the opinion that following these regulations was unnecessary, while 28% expressed uncertainty on the matter. Mandating minimum education level for working in community pharmacies should be implemented. Practicing pharmacists should be encouraged to update their knowledge by attending continuous education programmes. The morals and responsibilities of community pharmacists should be continuously reminded to the pharmacists.
