Authors: TANMAN ZIPLAR Ümmügülsüm , CANSARAN-DUMAN Demet , TÜRKTAŞ Mine
Published: April 2018

In
this review, we explained that genomic and transcriptomic sequences and
analysis assays. First of all, we detailed information of genomic and
transcriptomic terms and related analyses. Genomics is aimed to elucidate the
structural and functional properties of the genomes. Transcriptomics are used
to express quantities of transcripts in a physiological state and specific
developmental stage. The methods of genomic and transcriptomic analyses imply
highly productive sequence analysis or microarray hybridization analysis as
well as bioinformatics analyses. The sequencing technologies include set of methods
such as preparing template, sequencing, imaging and data analysis. Firstly, the
nucleotide information peculiar to DNA and RNA is obtained by means of the
chosen technology in accordance with the goal and scope of the study. The
obtained sequences are aligned with respect to a familiar reference sequence,
or are combined as de novo. Subsequently,
it is determined whether the distinct genomic sets are connected with the other
genomic sets by overlapping distinct genomic sets, such as aligned sequence
readings, gene annotation, EST, genetic
polymorphism, and mobile elements. So, the structural variant to which the
obtained sequence data are peculiar is determined. Within the scope of the study,
giving information about sequencing technologies and the methods of analyses of
the obtained sequences is aimed for researchers work on this subject.

Hipertensi atau tekanan darah tinggi merupakan salah satu penyakit tidak menular yang menjadi masalah kesehatan yang sangat serius baik di Indonesia maupun di dunia. Berdasarkan data Departemen Kesehatan Republik Indonesia (Depkes RI) memaparkan bahwa kasus hipertensi di Indonesia sebagai penyebab kematian untuk semua umur yaitu sebanyak 6,8%. Kementerian Kesehatan membuat kebijakan untuk mengelola penyakit hipertensi yaitu salah satunya dengan mengembangkan dan memperkuat kegiatan deteksi dini hipertensi secara aktif atau yang disebut juga sebagai kegiatan skrinning. Tujuan dalam penelitian ini adalah menilai validitas instrumen skrining hipertensi dan memberikan rekomendasi sesuai dengan temuan yang didapat. Instrumen skrining hipertensi yang digunakan berupa kuesioner dengan teknik pengumpulan data adalah dengan menggunakan data primer yang dilakukan dengan cara wawancara. Data didapat dari 41 responden dan berdasar data yang telah terkumpul, diperoleh sebanyak 15 (36,6%) responden mengidap hipertensi yang diukur menggunkan instrumen skrining berupa kuesioner, sedangkan berdasar pengukuran menggunakan alat tensimeter sebagai gold standart ditemukan sebanyak 21 (51,2%) responden yang memiliki hipertensi. Didapatkan untuk penilaian validitas instrumen skrining secara keseluruhan dapat dikategorikan cukup baik, yaitu dengan nilai sensivisitas 0,7143 (71,43%),  spesifisitas 1,0 (100%), nilai prediksi positif 1,0 (100%), dan nilai prediksi negatif 0, 7692 (76,92%).  Maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa kuesioner tersebut sebagai insrumen skrining masih belum dapat digunakan sebagai media skrining hipertensi secara optimal atau belum sepenuhnya valid sehingga masih memerlukan pengembangan instrumen lebih lanjut.

Nuclear Energy for Everyone, Nuclear Weapons for No-One
Authors: Wibisono Makarim
Published: April 2018

The article explores the complicated nature of non-proliferation of nuclear weapons even though from the military, ethical and legal perspective, the destructiveness, immorality and illegality of the current situation cannot be perpetuated. Some of the nuclear-weapon states, however, have consistently refused to agree to any approach under multilateral auspices for the abolition of nuclear weapons. Rather, attention has been deflected to the horizontal proliferation of nuclear weapons, while the equally urgent task of complying with the legal obligation of implementing Article VI of the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) concerning nuclear disarmament has been marginalized. I argue, no form of warfare would confront humanity with dangers even remotely comparable with the danger of nuclear warfare. Such disaster would affect the world economy and other vital aspects of the global infrastructure. The sudden collapse of many of the world’s leading trading nations as well as the mechanisms for international transactions would lead to profound disorganization and leave other nation. In addition to the human cost, the ecology of the world would be severely affected and the infrastructure of civilization would be shattered.

The worsening of technical and safety condition of the pipeline infrastructure in Ukraine due to economic crisis following the end of the Cold War had driven Russia to provide compensation to Ukraine through applying subsidy on its gas price and paying the Ukrainian gas imports as long as Ukraine keep its promise to pay back the country’s debt until 2005. However, since Ukraine’s integration with the United States and its Western Allies by asking to become part of North Atlantic Treaty Organization and European Union state members, it refused to pay its high gas debts to Russia. This situation made Russia feels threatened towards its national security where there will be a possibility to the fall of Russian political influence in Ukraine. In 2006, Russia decided to implement its coercive diplomacy actions towards Ukraine through politicizing its gas sector.
Respon Poskolonial terhadap Intensifikasi Pendidikan Kolonial di Afrika

Published: April 2018

Tulisan ini membahas tentang respon masyarakat poskolonial terhadap intensifikasi pendidikan dan penanaman mindset pro-western yang dilakukan oleh kolonialis, yang menunjukkan sikap penolakan. Subyek target adalah masyarakat di negara-negara poskolonial yang telah mengalami perubahan perilaku akibat masa kolonialisme yang panjang dan intensif. Intensifikasi kolonialisme meninggalkan jejak historis kuat dalam sistem pendidikan di kalangan masyarakat poskolonial. Respon masyarakat poskolonialisme atas hal tersebut amat beragam: menolak, menerima dan kompromi. Namun satu hal yang sama adalah, masyarakat poskolonial yang tinggal di berbagai negara merupakan subyek target dari penanaman nilai-nilai pendidikan Barat yang sebagian besar tidak bersejalan dengan nilai-nilai lokal. Hubungan asimetris yang terbentuk selama masa kolonial telah menciptakan dunia tersendiri bagi kaum terjajah yang selalu diposisikan sebagai marjinal/periphery dan tergantung pada mantan negara kolonialnya. Sebagian besar kasus dalam tulisan ini adalah pendidikan di Afrika yang secara historis mengalami masa kolonial yang intensif.

Peacebuilding: the Shift towards a Hybrid Peace Approach
Authors: Anam Syaiful
Published: April 2018

This paper examines the transformation within the practice and concept ofcontemporary peacebuilding. Peacebuilding, practically and conceptually, hasbeen dominated by the liberal peace paradigm. In this case, theinstitutionalising of its core ideas such as democratisation, human rights, therule of law, and liberal market system to the post-conflict states and to a socalled ‘fragile/failed states’ aiming at bringing peace and security has failed to create a comprehensive and sustainable peace on the ground as exemplified in Nicaragua, Haiti, Bosnia, Afghanistan, and other post-war states. Scholars focused on the issue of peacebuilding have engaged to a new approach that challenge the domination of the liberal paradigm through the accommodation and appreciation upon the ‘local’ and thus create spaces for the interaction between the liberal and the ‘local’ within forms of ‘hybrid peace’ or ‘hybrid peacebuilding’

Memperkokoh Hubungan Indonesia-Australia
Authors: Dugis Vinsensio MA
Published: April 2018

Upaya-upaya apa yang dapat dilakukan pemerintah Indonesia dan Australia untuk memperkuat kembali hubungan bilateral Indonesia Australia? Pertanyaan ini tepat untuk diangkat, mengingat Presiden Joko Widodo (Jokowi) resmi dilantik ketika hubungan Indonesia-Australia sekali lagi berada pada titik rendah menyusul terkuaknya upaya skandal penyadapan yang dilakukan para agen intelijen Australia terhadap sejumlah petinggi Indonesia. Situasi kemudian semakin memburuk menyusul penolakan Presiden Jokowi atas permohonan grasi dua terpidana mati warga Australia yang dinyatakan bersalah tahun 2006 sebagai otak perencanaan penyelundupan heroin dari Bali. Tulisan ini berpendapat bahwa kedua pemerintahan dapat belajar pada praktek yang pernah dilakukan semenjak pertengahan tahun 1980an, yaitu membangun kembali hubungan bilateral yang diawali dengan diplomasi pertemanan. Komunikasi hotline langsung antar pemerintah kedua belah pihak diperluas sementara hubungan antar-orang tidak saja diperluas tetapi juga diperdalam. Cara ini membuka banyak kesempatan bagi kedua pihak dapat menemukan kepentingan-kepentingan serupa, yang selanjutnya tentu saja menjadi benih-benih unggul demi membangun kerjasama yang semakin lebih berarti ke depan.

Recent research using sol-gel and layer-by-layer chemistries, while claimed to be based on more environmentally-sustainable chemistry, still require aqueous media with the continuing problem of water management and drying processes being required. This paper outlines the initial forensic work to characterise commercially produced viscose/flax, cellulosic furnishing fabrics which have had conferred upon them durable flame retardant (FR) treatments using a novel, patented atmospheric plasma/UV excimer laser facility for processing textiles with the formal name - Multiplexed Laser Surface Enhancement (MLSE) system. This system (MTIX Ltd., UK), is claimed to offer the means of directly bonding of flame retardant precursor species to the component fibres introduced either before plasma/UV exposure or into the plasma/UV reaction zone itself, thereby eliminating a number of wet processing cycles. Nine commercial fabrics, pre-impregnated with a semi-durable, proprietary FR finish and subjected to the MLSE process have been analysed for their flame retardant properties before and after a 40 °C 30 min water soak. For one fabric, the pre-impregnated fabric was subjected to a normal heat cure treatment which conferred the same level of durability as the plasma/UV-treated analogue. TGA and LOI were used to further characterise their burning behaviour and the effect of the treatment on surface fibre morphologies were assessed. Scanning electron microscopy indicated that negligible changes had occurred to surface topography of the viscose fibres occurred during plasma/UV excimer processing.

In order to understand the hot deformation behavior of novel Cu/Al laminated composites, isothermal hot compression tests were conducted by Gleeble-1500D thermo-mechanical simulator. And the effect of bonding interface, deformation temperature and strain rate on the deformation behavior was analyzed. Results show that under the interface constraint effect, soft Al layer trends to flow synchronously with hard Cu layer. And further microstructure examinations indicate the cooperative deformation capability of Cu/Al composites increases with increasing stain rate and decreasing deformation temperature. Strain hardening exponent, calculated based on the true stress-true strain data, also proves the effect of deformation temperature and strain rate on the cooperative deformation behavior. Meanwhile, unique composites structure allows the Al matrix to exhibit the characteristic of dynamic recrystallization during the hot deformation process. Lastly, strain compensated Arrhenius-type constitutive equation was employed to describe the coupling effect of temperature, strain rate and strain on the flow stress.

Student Orientation: empowering our students to be active participants and to become partners in learning
Authors: Pickford Ruth
Published: April 2018

Active participation and partnership are different; active participation neither always leads to partnership nor evidences it. However, a student’s active participation in classes, in her/his course and in university life is a highly desirable undergraduate attribute and is a prerequisite for any staff-student partnership. As students may rationally choose not to participate in particular ways deemed compulsory by an institution if these do not align with their personal goals, any requirements designed to influence directly a student’s active participation thus need to be thoughtfully considered and carefully implemented. Rather than enforcing a series of requirements, the institutional responsibility is both to facilitate opportunities for students to engage and to support all new students to participate actively in their course.  This paper explores the different approaches taken across one large UK university in supporting new students to become active participants in their own learning. The range of approaches adopted highlighted the importance of contextual and disciplinary factors in shaping effective orientation processes. Subsequent analysis was used to produce a model of the relationship between the underpinning conditions and activities that support students to develop as active participants in their institutions. It is suggested that this model and the method used to collect data and to implement outcomes is transferable to other universities.
Recruiting, Training, and Co-creation with PGR student reviewers on an academic journal
Authors: Tran Danielle
Published: April 2018

Compass has, like most other academic journals, traditionally reflected the reviews and voices of staff in Higher Education, even though postgraduate researchers (PGRs) are encouraged to submit work to it. In the interests of creating a more inclusive journal, a behind-the-scenes effort to increase student interaction with it led to an email invitation to PGRs to act, in collaboration with staff, as student reviewers.An application process was implemented as part of the recruitment stage. PGRs had to select a published text from the Compass archives and review the piece, using a standard review form. Each application was peer reviewed and individuals were then informed of the decision. Three PGRs and an Intern eventually participated in a training session which introduced them more explicitly to the scope and aims of the journal. It has been found that being student reviewers for Compass has helped these PGRs to develop their professional identity. The role which PGR student reviewers now play in Compass also increases their evidence of impact and introduces them to a research publication context with which they were not previously familiar.
The shared learning journey: effective partnerships to deliver health promotion

Health promotion is a key role for healthcare professionals. It is based on effective collaboration between the healthcare professional and the public. Healthcare education has the challenge of future-proofing its curricula to meet the challenges laid out in health promotion strategies. However, engaging students in health promotion has traditionally been challenging within the delivery of an academic and largely theoretical module.This paper provides a practice example of an initiative in which partnerships between students, academic staff and community partners are key to the effective delivery of a health promotion module within a pre-registration healthcare programme.The partnerships were developed in two stages and use a social constructivist and assets-based approach to create a shared learning journey. Working in partnership has led to positive student engagement and has been beneficial to all those involved. It has led to positive changes within the module and beyond.
