Published: July 2021

Objetivo: Establecer la utilidad de las concentraciones cervicovaginales de interleucina-6 en la redicción del parto pretérmino. Diseño: Estudio de casos y controles. Institución: Hospital Central “Dr. Urquinaona”, Maracaibo, Venezuela. Participantes: Pacientes con parto pretérmino (grupo A), como casos, y embarazadas con parto a término (grupo B), consideradas como controles. Métodos: Las muestras de la secreción cervicovaginal se tomaron del orificio cervical externo y del fondo de saco posterior de la vagina, entre las 24 y 28 semanas de embarazo. Todos los embarazos fueron seguidos hasta el parto. Principales medidas de resultado: Características generales, concentraciones cervicovaginales de interleucina-6 y eficacia pronóstica. Resultados: La edad gestacional al momento de la determinación de las concentraciones cervicovaginales de interleucina-6 fue de 26,2 +/- 1,1 semanas para el grupo A y 25,9 +/- 1,1 semanas para el grupo B (p = ns). No se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en la edad materna, índice de masa corporal y antecedentes de parto pretérmino (p = ns). Las pacientes del grupo A (195,8 +/- 74,4 pg/mL) presentaron concentraciones significativamente más altas de interleucina-6 comparadas con las embarazadas del grupo B (123,4 +/- 69,6 pg/mL; p < 0,0001). Un valor de corte de 150 pg/mL mostró un valor por debajo de la curva de 0,75, con sensibilidad 63,4%, especificidad 62,5%, valor predictivo positivo 13,5% y valor predictivo negativo 94,8%. Conclusión: Las concentraciones cervicovaginales de interleucina-6 mostraron ser en la predicción del parto pretérmino.

Embolia de líquido amniótico: perspectiva histórica, fisiopatología y manejo clínico
Authors: D. Cuff Ryan
Published: July 2021

La embolia de líquido amniótico (ELA) es una ocurrencia devastadora, impredecible y no prevenible. A pesar de haber sido descrita por primera vez hace casi 80 años, todavía es causa significativa de mortalidad materna en el mundo. La ELA se caracteriza por la triada consistente en hipoxia súbita e hipotensión, seguida en la mayoría de casos por coagulopatía. El diagnóstico de la ELA es clínico, y es esencial su pronto reconocimiento y la intervención multidisciplinaria. Este artículo trata de revisar la historia, fisiopatología, factores de riesgo potenciales, estrategias para su identificación y manejo, así como los resultados de esta desafortunada y antigua emergencia obstétrica.
Corioangioma placentario gigante. Reporte de caso
Authors: Rondón Tapia Marta , Reyna Villasmil Eduardo , Torres Cepeda Duly
Published: July 2021

Los corioangiomas placentarios son tumores vasculares benignos y los tumores placentarios más comunes, con una prevalencia de 1%. Raras veces sobrepasan los 4 a 5 centímetros y, cuando esto ocurre, es descrito como corioangioma gigante. Los embarazos con corioangiomas gigantes están asociados con complicaciones maternas y fetales, tales como anemia hemolítica microangiopática severa, parto pretérmino, polihidramnios, restricción del crecimiento intrauterino del feto, trombocitopenia e hidropesía. Se presenta un caso de un corioangioma gigante diagnosticado a las 22 semanas. A pesar del seguimiento estricto, el parto se produjo a las 30 semanas debido a polihidramnios y rotura prematura de membranas. Tanto la madre como el recién nacido se recuperaron sin complicaciones.
Constantino J. Carvallo Alzamora, primer presidente de la Sociedad Peruana de Obstetricia y Ginecología
Authors: Álvarez Ricardo Iván
Published: July 2021

El doctor Constantino José Carvallo Alzamora fue el primer presidente de la Sociedad Peruana de Obstetricia y Ginecología (SPOG), contribuyendo notablemente a su organización normativa y estabilidad institucional. No obstante, su trayectoria profesional ha sido mucho más vasta y diversa, lo que lo convirtió en uno de los médicos peruanos más connotados de la primera mitad del siglo XX. La orden médica en general y los ginecólogos en particular, tenían una deuda con nuestro personaje, ya que hasta la fecha no se había escrito una biografía que se aproximara realmente a su proficua existencia. Por ello, el presente artículo no solo es una investigación histórica, sino también un merecido acto de justicia.

Authors: Villena Chávez Jaime E.
Published: July 2021

Peru es un país en desarrollo con una prevalencia creciente de enfermedades crónicas no comunicables, entre las que destacan la enfermedad cardiovascular, el cáncer, la diabetes mellitus (DM), el síndrome metabólico (SM) y la obesidad. Objetivo. Revisar los aspectos epidemiológicos de la obesidad y el síndrome metabólico en el Perú en lo concerniente a su prevalencia. Método. Se revisó la literatura a través de una búsqueda sistemática de PubMed, SciELO, LILACS y las publicaciones del Ministerio de Salud, Organización Mundial de la Salud y otras agencias ligadas a la salud pública nacional. Resultados. La Encuesta Nacional de Hogares en 2006 encontró una prevalencia de sobrepeso de 30,9% en adultos jóvenes, 42,5% en adultos y 21,7% en adultos mayores. La prevalencia de obesidad en estos grupos etarios fue 8,7%, 19,8% y 10,6%, respectivamente. Los factores asociados al exceso de peso fueron: ser mujer, no ser pobre y vivir en área urbana. La prevalencia de sobrepeso en niños menores de 5 años fue 6,4%, en aquellos entre 5 a 9 años 15,5% y en adolescentes (10 a 19 años de edad), 11,0%. La prevalencia de obesidad en estos grupos fue 1,8%, 8,9% y 3,3%, respectivamente. Los factores asociados al exceso fueron: no ser pobre, vivir en área urbana y nivel educativo primario. La Encuesta Nacional de Salud (ENDES) 2014, en personas ≥ 15 años de edad, encontró una prevalencia de sobrepeso de 33,8%. Esta fue mayor en Lima (35,7%) y en la costa (36,7%) que en la selva (33,4%) y que en la región andina (29,8%). La prevalencia de obesidad fue 18,3%, mayor en áreas urbanas (21,5%) que en rurales (8,9%). En el seguimiento de estos indicadores los años 2015 y 2016 se observó que el IMC promedio y la prevalencia de obesidad y sobrepeso se han estabilizado a nivel nacional. La prevalencia de SM (ATP III) fluctúa entre 10% y 45%, es más prevalente en mujeres, adultos mayores y en aquellos que viven en zonas urbanas y en altitudes bajas. Conclusiones. La obesidad es un problema creciente de salud en el Perú que conlleva retos para el Sistema de Salud por las consecuencias derivadas de ella, como son la diabetes mellitus, la hipertensión arterial, el síndrome metabólico y el ovario poliquístico, entre otra patología. La estrategia nacional contra esta epidemia debe incluir la promoción de hábitos de vida saludables en la comunidad, a través de los medios de comunicación masiva y redes sociales, el diagnóstico operativo de esta condición por parte de los profesionales de la salud -particularmente en el nivel primario-, junto con la indicación de la adopción de hábitos de vida saludable, refiriendo los casos más severos a centros especializados.

Valoración de la dosis efectiva media y sensibilidad estacional en el bufo spinulosus, usando standard internacional de gonadotrofina corionica
Authors: Rodríguez Gutierrez Washington
Published: July 2021

Usando por primera vez en nuestro país standard internacional de gonadotrofina coriónica, hemos observado modificaciones estacionales de la sensibilidad al desprendimiento de espermatozoides en el sapo común de Lima, en forma similar a la que presentan diversas especies de batracios en otros países. Los resultados hemos apreciado por la dosis efectiva teórica en U.I. para cada estación, encontrando valores D. E. 50 ó D.E.M. entre 9 y 15 U.I., con sensibilidad máxima en primavera, decreciente en verano y mínima en otoño, para volver a aumentar en invierno. Aplicando estos informes, como se comprende, se facilita en nuestro medio la determinación cuantitativa de la gonadotrofina coriónica en unidades internacionales, usando el Bufo spinulosus y con ayuda de las curvas dosis-respuestas para cada estación representadas en un diagrama, sin importar la época del año en que se trabaje. Con todo, creemos oportuno establecer que sólo es válido el método para las titulaciones en sangre y orina que se realicen en Lima; si hay la intención de aplicarlo en otras regiones del país, previamente conviene valorar en cada zona la sensibilidad específica del animal reactivo del lugar para evitar un posible error de cálculo. Por otra parte, nuestro animal de laboratorio ha resultado más sensible que sus congéneres de otros países y comparable a la que presenta la coneja, aunque menor a la rata impúber. Por ello, juzgamos conveniente usar el Bufo spinulosus para determinaciones cuantitativas cuando se busquen niveles altos de gonadotrofinas coriónicas, en tanto que no es apropiado para niveles bajos.

Statistical and Econometrical Assessment of the Labor Market Impact on Other Economic Indicators by Economic Regions
Authors: Rustamov E. , Suleymanov A.
Published: July 2021

The balanced socio-economic development of the country’s regions arises from the balanced development of several economic systems. For this, the most important factor is to determine areas that stimulate development at an early stage. Thus, the growth of all economic sectors at the same rate does not mean the formation of a generally balanced development. For this, the composition of the economic process and the role of the labor market in the motivating factors must always be measured. A question arises, what is the importance of the division of the role of the labor market in these areas? Firstly, the main goal should be to achieve economic development and prosperity. Economic development itself will regularly play the role of impetus in the development of the social sphere. In general, the end result of all economic processes is to further improve the social welfare of the population. Taking into account the above mentioned, the impact of labor market indicators on other economic indicators for the regions of the country was assessed and analyzed in accordance with international methodology. For this, the economic indicators of the last 20 years were taken and the research work was conducted. The research identified main shortcomings and their solutions were shown in accordance with international methodologies. To this end, research is needed to be conducted to identify shortcomings that are always lacking in order to achieve full results in economic policies in future.

Analiza gibanja oči med branjem pri bolnikih z različnimi stopnjami kognitivnega upada
Authors: Groznik Vida , Sadikov Aleksander
Published: July 2021

S staranjem prebivalstva se močno povečuje število bolnikov z demenco, kar predstavlja vedno večji družbeni problem. Poleg samega bolnika z demenco, breme bolezni občutijo tudi njegovi bližnji. Blag kognitivni upad (MCI) je stanje kognitivnega funkcioniranja med tistim, ki ga opazimo pri običajnem staranju in tistim, ki ga zaznamo pri osebah z demenco. Raziskave kažejo, da okvirno 10% do 15% bolnikov z MCI v roku enega leta napreduje v Alzheimerjevo demenco. Obenem obstajajo indici, da je v MCI fazi bolezen velikokrat še možno zavreti; posledično je zgodnje odkrivanje kognitivnega upada precejšnjega pomena. Gibanje oči med branjem se je v zadnjih letih izkazalo kot eden izmed obetavnih bioloških označevalcev za zaznavanje kognitivnega upada. V pričujoči raziskavi smo analizirali gibanje oči med branjem pri 115 preiskovancih, ki so bili razdeljeni v štiri skupine glede na stopnjo kognitivnega upada; od povsem zdravih do preiskovancev z demenco. Njihov pogled smo posneli s sistemom za spremljanje očesnih gibov, posnetke pa smo opisali z lastnim naborom atributov. Analiza porazdelitev vrednosti atributov je pokazala, da se te močno razlikujejo v odvisno od stopnje kognitivnega upada.

The Social Security of Farmers in Poland and in Selected EU Member States
Authors: Bak Joanna , Szałkowska Małgorzata
Published: July 2021

The subject of the present article is the social security of farmers. The main aim of this research paper is characterizing the functioning of the social security system for Polish farmers in comparison to such systems in selected member states of the European Union. The research investigated social security systems in Finland, France, Austria, Germany and Poland.

The research involved a review of the literature on social security systems for farmers, provisions of law regulating the principles of such systems and the information furnished by the Agricultural Social Insurance Fund (KRUS), as well as statistical data provided by KRUS and Eurostat.

The following research methods have been applied: descriptive analysis of the documents in order to verify the diversity of agricultural security systems, a critical review of the literature and online data concerning social security, and a comparative analysis.

Each of the investigated countries has its own, distinct social and historical conditions, which has led to the development of independent institutions of social security for farmers. One factor which all these systems have in common is significant support from the national budget. In the future, financial inefficiency may pose the most significant risk to security systems in agriculture. Except for their social role, the social security systems presented below also participate in the management of agricultural policy, the aim of which is the development of rural areas and the welfare of the natural environment.

Authors: Kozłowski Waldemar
Published: July 2021

Motivation is one of the most important elements from an enterprise development perspective which, in turn, provides a basis for the development of other strategic perspectives. However, several barriers may distort the positive correlation between staff motivation and the development perspective of the enterprise. The research problem concerns the location of employee motivation in the development perspective as one of the key elements of the strategic scorecard. The research objectives within the research problem are the analysis of the level of employee motivation and the correlation of the level of motivation with the results of the organization.

The aim of the article is to analyze the level of motivation of employees in a production and trade company. The subject of research is the motivational system. The basic research method was a survey. The research results demonstrated which elements of the motivational process, and to what extent, should be analysed and improved, as required by the evaluation. There exists a close relationship between employee motivation and the perspective of internal processes, the client’s perspective and, consequently, the financial perspective.
Influence of bit size on stability bottom drill column balance when drilling a horizontal well
Authors: Griguletsky V. G. , Kuznetsov A. B.
Published: July 2021

The article raises the question that if you change the bit type, the "critical length" of the lower part of the drill string change too. For the first time, the issue of the stability of the lower part of the drill string when drilling a horizontal section of the wellbore was formulated and solved, taking into account the features of the bit designs (roller bit, wing bit, PDC bit) and the mechanism of rock destruction in well drilling. The research uses the generally accepted provisions of the linear theory of elasticity of materials, the theory of stability of rods and shells. It is assumed that the lower part of the drill string is a heavy elastic rod, experiencing the combined action of the forces of the pipe's own weight and the axial load on the bit, and the twisting moment from the rotor table acting on the pipe string is not taken into account. To find the "critical length" of the lower part of the drill string, simple approximate formulas are obtained that take into account the bit size, drill collar and axial load.
Heritage, Reconciliation and Cross-Border Cooperation in Cyprus
Authors: Reid Amy
Published: July 2021

Cultural heritage in Cyprus has been a contentious issue throughout the island’s tumultuous history. The official partition of the island in 1974, after years of conflict between the Greek and Turkish Cypriot communities, has resulted in the destruction and neglect of heritage sites on both sides of the Cypriot ‘border’. However, in recent years there has been an increase in organisations that aim to use heritage as a tool to unite both communities. This contribution examines the work of one such organisation, the Technical Committee on Cultural Heritage in Cyprus (TCCH).
Resources of birch trees and their productivity for honey collection in conditions of the Leningrad region
Authors: Samsonova I. D. , Thaо Do Van
Published: July 2021

The Leningrad Oblast has a rich food base for bees on forest land. Still, currently, there is no regulatory basis for assessing the honey resources of birch forest land at the regional level. Therefore, forest areas with woody, shrubby or herbaceous plants as part of the woody, shrubby or herbaceous layer are used as a forage base for bees. The birch forests of the Leningrad region are the second largest in terms of the area covered. The research aims to carry out an inventory of honey resources and determine honey productivity for the primary honey plants under the birch canopy and forest edges. We used a proven survey methodology for counting plants of the understorey at the experimental sites. The study presented 71 species from 31 families of melliferous plants of blueberry, wormwood and herb-meadow birch forests. Significant melliferous plants under the birch canopy are Aegopodium podagraria L. (herb-twine and sagebrush birch, 57 kilograms/hectare); Vaccinium myrtillus L. (birch bilberry and acidic birch, 27 kilograms/hectare); Veronica chamaedrys L. (acidic birch, 24 kilograms/hectare). Rubus idaeus L. (107 kg/ha) has maximum honey production in the forest margins. The honey yield of Frangula Alnus Mill. and Chamaenerion angustifolium (L.) Scop is 50-60 kg/ha; the honey yield of Trifolium medium L. is 32 kg/ha. The evaluation of the birch woodlands showed that the studied components of the forest phytocenosis are characterized by a significant number of honey-bearing plant species that have a wide range of honey productivity.
Inﬂuence of plant protection methods on weediness and seed yield of meadow clover varieties in Primorskiy region
Authors: Skalozub О. M.
Published: July 2021

In the field of fodder production, in most cases, low-yielding, old-age grass stands are used. One of the reasons for this is the low availability of grass seeds. For example, over the past 20 years, the production of grass-clover seeds has reduced by 3.4 times. Therefore, priority should be given to the seed production of leguminous grasses (including meadow clover). A large infestation of the arable soil layer with seeds and buds of annual and perennial weeds in almost all arable land in the Primorskiy Region is the most critical factor in reducing the yield of cultivated crops. The development of practical techniques for clearing fields of weeds is one of the vital links in the technology of increasing the output of fodder crops. The research aims to establish the effect of agronomic practices of cultivation and means of protection on the seed yield of meadow clover in the natural and climatic conditions of the Primorskiy Region. Clover is a crop sensitive to herbicides, with a limited period of their application. Therefore, inter-row treatments were carried out before the rows were closed, and chemical treatments were applied before the budding phase to preserve wild pollinators and bees. The varieties Ogonek, SibNIIK-10 and regionalised Kommandor were evaluated. Experimental data on the impact of agronomic practices of meadow clover cultivation and plant protection methods on the weediness of its crops and the yield quality of seeds under the conditions of the Primorskiy region were obtained. The use of herbicides against the background of inter-row treatment during the second year of clover planting helped reduce the weed infestation from 58.3 to 70% and increase the seed yield by 1.1-1.3 times depending on the variety.

Published: July 2021

A avicultura é uma atividade econômica internacionalizada e uniforme sem fronteiras geográficas, gerando grande impacto na economia brasileira. Inúmeros trabalhos buscam a implementação de alimentos com menor custo de produção visando diminuir os custos com ração sem diminuir o desempenho e o rendimento de carcaça. Com isso objetivo dessa pesquisa foi avaliar o uso de farelo de palma forrageira na alimentação de frangos de corte de crescimento lento. O experimento foi conduzido no Setor de Avicultura da Universidade Federal do Cariri, no período de 18 de setembro a 12 de dezembro de 2018 (abatidas aos 85 dias de idade). Foram adquiridos 200 pintos não sexados da linhagem pesadão vermelho, de um dia de idade. De 1 a 27 dias de idade, todos os pintos receberam, à vontade, ração inicial vendida no comércio local apropriada para frangos de corte tipo caipira. Quando os frangos completaram 27 dias, foram pesados e distribuídos em um delineamento inteiramente casualizado com três tratamentos (ração controle; ração com 5% de farelo; e ração com 10% de farelo de palma) e cinco repetições de 10 unidades cada, totalizando 50 aves por tratamento. As aves que receberam dieta contendo 90% de ração e 10% de palma forrageira apresentaram menor consumo alimentar. Entretanto, a conversão alimentar desses frangos não diferiu significativamente daqueles alimentos somente com ração comercial, As variáveis peito, coxa + (mais) sobrecoxa, peito e coração, não apresentaram diferença estatística significativa enquanto que as variáveis carcaça, fígado e moela apresentaram diferença pelo teste de SNK (P<0,05) O farelo de palma pode ser utilizado na alimentação de frangos de corte de crescimento lento até o nível de 10%.
Philosophical Oriental Studies. By the 100th Anniversary of the Institute of Philosophy of the Russian Academy of Sciences (1921-2021)
Authors: Stepanyants M. T.
Published: July 2021

The Russian Oriental studies are rich and diverse in their disciplines. The focus of research activities conducted mainly at the university centres of St. Petersburg, Moscow, Kazan, and during Soviet times in the capitals of some republics (Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, etc.), was largely determined by the domestic political and geopolitical interests of the Russian Empire. Thus, a philosophical aspect in oriental studies, as well as university philosophical education practical^ did not exist. The changes brought by the revolution of 1917 have greatly affected all fields of social life, including the academic milieu. The article examines a complex and contradictory path of development of the national philosophy, on the example of the Institute founded in 1921 by Gustav Gustavovich Speth (1879-1937), nowadays the Institute of Philosophy of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The latter has become the main focal point of the philosophical research activities in the former Soviet Union. Particular attention is paid to the liberation from the Eurocentrism inherited from imperial times concerning the spiritual heritage of the peoples of the East as a whole, and in philosophy in particular. The pivotal points of its activity became “History of Philosophy” in 3 Volumes (19411943) and “History of Philosophy” in 6 Volumes (1957-1966). The real breakthrough was the encyclopedias, such as: “The New Philosophical Encyclopedia” in 4 volumes (2001); “Indian philosophy. Encyclopedia” (2009); “The Philosophy of Buddhism: Encyclopedia” (2011). The Orientalist aspect in higher philosophical education nowadays becomes more visible. The recent international recognition of the achievements of the Russian Orientalist philosophical studies regardless of a relatively small number of specialists is largely due to their collective efforts and close cooperation.

Published: July 2021

The growing strategic importance of Andaman and Nicobar Islands is now changing the dynamics of Indian ocean and maritime politics. The sea politics is now has been more tangled than before. Viewed under the theory of offensive realism proposed by John Mearsheimer that holds the concept of power maximization of states and balancing strategies to counter their rival states as all states have some offensive capabilities and countries can never be certain about the intentions of other states. The ultimate goal is to dominate. Within that context, the study aims to examine the growing strategic importance of Andaman and Nicobar Islands and its future prospects and implications on Pakistan. This paper analyzes the main indicators that India is presently working on, to develop its Tri-service theatre. The study seeks to answer the following questions a) How Andaman and Nicobar Islands are strategically important for India? b) How will the development of the two islands will change the dynamics of maritime politics and tackle increasing Chinese presence in Indian ocean? c) What will be the future implications or Pakistan? The study argues that the ANC is the significant factor for India to aggravate its control in the Indian Ocean region as it is developing its largest military and nuclear build-up. However, it can unleash negative imprints for Pakistan in future in certain aspects.

Biblijny szafan – problem identyfikacyjno-egzegetyczny
Authors: Morta Krzysztof
Published: July 2021

Artykuł poświęcony jest góralkowi, niewielkiemu biblijnemu stworzeniu, które sprawiło w ciągu wieków wiele problemów identyfikacyjnych tłumaczom i egzegetom Biblii (zob. Kpł 11,5; Pwt 14,7; Ps 104,18; Prz 30,26). Pierwszym etapem było wprowadzenie przez tłumaczy Septuaginty w miejsce szerzej nieznanego hebrajskiego terminu szafan równie słabo kojarzonego greckiego ekwiwalentu choirogrillios. Dało to podstawy do różnych identyfikacji. Pojawiły się odniesienia do zająca, jeża, a nawet świni. Rozwijająca się egzegeza biblijna, bazująca na nieścisłościach i nieporozumieniach w tej kwestii, wprowadziła dodatkowe nieporozumienia. W ten sposób jeden hebrajski szafan zaczął być rozumiany jako dwa różne zwierzęta i komentowany jako jeż i zając (np. św. Augustyn). Doszło również do procesu odwrotnego: cechy dwóch różnych zwierząt używane jako ekwiwalenty szafana zostały skompilowane w jednym stworzeniu (św. Hieronim). Autor artykułu, który stara się uporządkować informacje związane z identyfikacją szafana, podaje starożytne świadectwa zachowane u Ojców Kościoła, które wskazują, że góralek już wtedy został zidentyfikowany. Niestety, ze względu na ograniczony obszar jego występowania i w związku z tym słabe kojarzenie tego zwierzęcia wśród czytelników/odbiorów Biblii te informacje o nim nie zostały szerzej rozpowszechnione i wykorzystane. Ta skomplikowana materia, z jaką mamy do czynienia w przypadku szafana, i dziś sprawia trudności badaczom oraz autorom chcącym odnieść się do tego zagadnienia.

Authors: Fajarwati Neri , Lahmini Roziana
Published: July 2021

The government's efforts in structuring traditional markets in Rengasdengklok District, Karawang Regency are deemed ineffective, because the traders leave the building in the market and prefer to sell on the side of the road which causes traffic jams every morning. The government is in the process of constructing a new market building to move traders to a new location. The problem that occurs in the arrangement of this traditional market is the absence of a proper building for traders and traders, which is difficult to arrange properly. As a result, the traders filled the main road of Rengasdengklok and left traces of rubbish on the side of the road. In addition, there is no parking space for buyers. Researchers used the theory of the main components of government strategy (X) from (Mulgan, 2008) which consisted of 5 sub variables, namely purposes, environment, direction, action, and learning. In addition, the researcher uses structuring theory (Y) from (George R Terry, in the book Principles of Management (Sukarna, 2019) which consists of 6 sub variables, namely man, material, machines, method, money, and market. The method used is explanatory. Research with a quantitative approach. Data collection techniques using literature study, questionnaire, observation, and documentation. The population in this study were traders, amounting to 1,314 people. While the sample in this study amounted to 93 people. The sampling method using purposive sampling. Data analysis technique used is the Pearson product moment correlation analysis, hypothesis testing and determinant coefficient. The results showed that the respondents 'responses about the local government strategy were 65.6%, based on the percentage score criteria respondents' answers were categorized as strong. This happens because the government's strategy in conducting market structuring it is good, as for the results in market structuring traditional at 79.0% this is based on the criteria for the respondent's score in the strong category. This is because the market arrangement is good. The influence of local government strategy on traditional market arrangement can be seen that the contribution of influence is 23.8% based on the interpretation guideline of the low coefficient of determination. This happened because there were no proper buildings for traders to sell. Then the remaining 76.2% is influenced by other factors not examined by the researcher.
