Published: August 2024

In the context of toxic business competition, this research investigates the legal protection of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia, particularly in partnerships with large corporations. The primary emphasis is on the implementation of Law Number 5 of 1999, which prohibits monopolistic practices and unfair business competition, and Law Number 20 of 2008, which pertains to small and medium-sized enterprises. Data was collected from literature studies, pertinent regulations, and in-depth interviews with relevant stakeholders using a qualitative approach and a case study design. The research results show that although the legal framework already exists, effective implementation still requires improvement. MSMEs face various challenges in partnerships with large companies, including access to resources and greater risks in business transactions. Recommendations are prepared to strengthen legal protection through regulatory revisions, strengthening legal institutions, legal education, developing partnerships, and stricter law enforcement. The main aim is to increase fairness in business relations between MSMEs and large companies, as well as support inclusive and sustainable economic growth in Indonesia. It is hoped that the implications of this research can provide a positive contribution in renewing policies that support the development of MSMEs as the backbone of the national economy.

Understanding art therapy graduate employability: a mixed methods study
Authors: Griffin Caryn , Hugrass Laila , Van Lith Theresa
Published: August 2024

Understanding employability for art therapy graduates is crucial for training programs because it allows for tailored teaching approaches and better preparation for students entering the job market. Employability includes student attributes such as professional and discipline-specific skills and competencies, as well as contextual or structural factors that influence work abilities. However, there is little evidence on what contributes to employability in art therapy. This study surveyed placement supervisors to identify the strengths and challenges they perceive in student competencies and report on contextual factors impacting employability at their organisations. Thirty placement supervisors from various community and clinical settings completed a 26-item mixed-methods online survey. The findings highlighted the strengths of art therapy students, such as their use of client-centred approaches and engagement in reflective practice. However, the results also pointed to a greater need for work-life balance and knowledge of culturally safe practices. Limited budgets were found to affect employability prospects for recent graduates as well as the need for more advocacy efforts was emphasised to demonstrate the benefits of art therapy in healthcare settings. This paper offers several recommendations for teaching programs and art therapy professional bodies to improve employability outcomes for graduates.
Utilization of Artificial Intelligence to Improve Door-In Door-Out Times for Mechanical Thrombectomy-Eligible Patients at a Hub-and-Spoke Community-Based Comprehensive Stroke Center: A Single Case Study Presentation
Authors: Robertson Tracy , Taylor Diana , Taylor Cole , Patterson Jennifer
Published: August 2024

Background:
Delays in the transfer of patients with hyperacute stroke may lead to treatment ineligibility due to the degree of cerebral hypoxic injury suffered. Cloud-based artificial intelligence applications may improve transfer times and expand access to advanced therapies. One case between a community-based comprehensive stroke center (CSC) and a primary stroke center (PSC) using a third-party telemedicine service and shared cloud-based artificial intelligence application may provide insight in opportunities to improve stroke systems of care. 
 Case Presentation:
A 62-year-old female with a past medical history of hypertension, current everyday tobacco smoker, and marijuana user presented to an outlying emergency department (ED) with dense left-sided hemiplegia affecting the arm and leg, right-sided gaze preference, and severe dysarthria. Her last known well (LKW) time was 0900 hours. CNS imaging revealed a right middle cerebral artery occlusion, visible to members of the CSC stroke team through the use of a cloud-based artificial intelligence cell phone application. The patient was treated with intravenous thrombolytics at the PSC, and she was transferred to the CSC, where she underwent a diagnostic cerebral arteriogram with carotid artery stenting. Later, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the brain revealed a 3.5 cm x 2.5 cm hemorrhagic lesion in the right frontal lobe and diffusion restriction in the right frontal and right posterior temporal lobes. The patient’s hospital stay was three days and, at the time of discharged, her modified Rankin score and NIHSS were zero. She was discharged on dual antiplatelet therapy, statin therapy, and nicotine replacement. 
Utilization of Artificial Intelligence:
            Transfer delays are complicated by organizing care at PSC and CSC and can be lengthy when communication across different facilities and subspecialties. Implementing cloud-based AI image sharing in stroke systems of care has reduced DIDO times by providing rapid imaging interpretation, streamlining communication, and enhancing coordination between PSCs and CSCs. 
Conclusions:
Our case presentation showed how a hub-and-spoke model combined with cloud-based AI utilization can improve DIDO times and enhance stroke systems of care.

Pemberian Perlindungan Hukum terhadap Pemegang Polis Asuransi dalam Peraturan Perundang-undangan di Indonesia
Authors: Nurrahayu Feby Dian
Published: August 2024

Insurance has become a popular investment vehicle due to its offering of certainty and assurance. One common issue faced by policyholders is the difficulty in receiving intermittent reimbursements for specific payments, whereas the primary objective of a policyholder or any party involved in an insurance agreement is to receive compensation when the insured object experiences an unexpected event. Normative legal research methodology is employed as an approach in composing this writing, relying on legal materials obtained through literature research, which includes primary and secondary legal materials. Primary legal sources refer to statutory regulations relevant to the discussion material, while secondary legal sources involve various legal literature and other law-related sources such as legal dictionaries. It can be concluded that legally, an individual possessing an insurance policy holds the position of the insured party entitled to receive premium payments. This is aimed at providing compensation for losses, damages, or potential profit losses that may occur due to an unpredictable event. Individuals holding important roles as insurance policyholders, undoubtedly bound to the insurance company through their insurance agreement, are entitled to legal protection in various legal matters, particularly considering that the majority of insurance policy shareholders are individuals with vulnerable economic conditions. Therefore, several regulations are designed to provide more intensive attention and legal protection to insurance policyholders, preventing potential legal violations that may occur from insurance company entities. This concise abstract falls within the range of 150-200 words and is crafted in academic English.

The term Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) refers to a complex injury entity which is based on ultrastructural injury patterns. The injury is usually harmless and heals within a few days without sequelae. However, at the time of the manifestation there are (sometimes considerable) performance limitations and the risk of possible secondary injuries is increased. Thus, prevention and treatment of DOMS, especially in high-performance sports, are of particular value. Insights into muscle biomechanics are necessary to understand the background and mechanisms of DOMS. The definition and classification of overload-related muscle injuries has not yet been uniformly determined. Fluid transitions between physiological, metabolic and neuromuscular fatigue as well as the actual occurrence of injuries with clinical symptoms make clear delineation difficult. The “Munich Classification” terms Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) as Type 1b muscle injury, “delayed onset muscle pain”. The central target of prevention of DOMS is to prevent or alleviate the onset of the initial damage, known as “Exercise Induced Muscle Damage” (EIMD). In case of manifest DOMS, the intention is both to relieve the attendant symptoms and to promote rapid restoration of muscle function. In clinical practice as in scientific research, diverse procedures and interventions have proven valuable, whereby especially physical therapy procedures like cryotherapy, heat therapy or compression therapy show promising study results.

Published: August 2024

This article discusses the application of the principle of justice in the resolution of Islamic civil disputes in Indonesia by using qualitative methods through literature studies and research in libraries. Justice is one of the important aspects in the resolution of Islamic civil disputes to ensure that individual rights are defended in accordance with the principles of fair and balanced Islamic law. This study explores various sources of literature related to Islamic civil law practice, justice, and dispute resolution in Indonesia. In the context of Islamic civil law, justice refers not only to compliance with formal law, but also to the moral, ethical, and social justice aspects that underlie Islamic teachings. This article reviews the concept of justice in Islam which includes individual rights, protection of the public interest, and dispute resolution mechanisms that prioritize mediation and peace. The results of the study show that the application of the principle of justice in Islamic civil dispute resolution in Indonesia still faces various challenges, such as obstacles in the implementation of the law, a culture of conflict resolution, and limited access to the judicial system. Nevertheless, measures to improve justice in Islamic civil dispute resolution continue to be developed, including through increasing understanding of Islamic law, training for law enforcement officers, and promoting alternative dispute resolution that is deliberative.

Among the plant extracts, all the plant extracts inhibit the mycelial growth of Exserohilum turcicum, Neem (Azadirachta indica) seed kernel extract @ 10% was effective in reducing the growth of Exserohilum turcicum. Foliar spray of Azadirachta indica seed extract was also found most effective among plant extract showing the minimum disease severity (25.4%) and maximum grain yield (24.1q/ha). while Eucalyptus citriodora 10% concentration were low effective as comparison to Azadirachta indica and Ocimum sanctum in inhibition of Exserohilum turcicum growth and produced 72.8% lower grain yield as compare to Azadirachta indica. Minimum grain yield was recorded in check plots. Six fungicides also tested, Zineb 75 WP @ 0.25 % concentration found most effective in inhibiting the growth of E. turcicum, low in disease severity and ultimately produced higher grain yield of maize. Mancozeb 63%+Carbendazim 12% @ 0.25% was found equally effective which can be used as an alternative to Zineb.

Tasavvuftaki gayb erenleri ifadesi üçleri, yedileri ve kırkları karşılamak için kullanılmaktadır. Buna göre sufiler, velileri hadislere dayanarak farklı derece ve sınıflara ayırmışlardır. Gayb erenleri de olarak bilinen kırklar ululuk/ermişlik sıralamasında yer almalarına karşın onların kim oldukları bilinmez. Fakat varlıklarına ve kutsallıklarına inanılan evliyalar topluluğu olarak kabul edilir. Dünyayı idare eden bu erenlerin başında kutb yahut kutbu’l-aktab denilen kişiler bulunur. Gayb erenleri olarak bilinen üçler, yediler ve kırklar kültü Türk kültürünün ortak inançlarından biridir. Bu inanç kuvvetli bir evliya kültüne sahip olan Türk toplumunda Sünnilerde özellikle de Alevilerde yoğun bir şekilde yaşatılmış ve günümüze kadar da varlığını sürdürmüştür. Alevilere göre Kırkların başı Hz. Ali’dir. Hz. Ali ve Hz. Muhammed’in katıldığı Kırklar meclisinin zamanı ve mekânı belli değildir. Üçler, yediler ve kırklar olarak ifade edilen fakat kim oldukları meçhul olan gayb erenlerinin adına pek çok yerde makam ve ziyaretgâhlar inşa edilmiştir. Onlara saygı duyulması halinde burayı ziyaret edenleri koruyacakları ve onların dileklerini yerine getireceklerine inanılır. Ayrıca bu isimlerle anılan pek çok mezar, dağ, köy, zaviye ve mescit mevcuttur. Mezar, dağ, köy, zaviye ve mescitlere Kırklar adının verilmesinin altında da bu inancın yattığı söylenebilir. İşte bu çalışmada Evliya Çelebi seyahatnamesiyle Osmanlı döneminde hazırlanmış arşiv vesikalarından hareketle üçler, yediler ve kırklar kültünün izleri takip edilip bahsedilen isimlerle anılan makam, ziyaretgâh, mezar, dağ, köy, zaviye ve mescitlere dair bazı bilgiler verilmiştir.

This technical report presents a structured methodology for describing and assessing auto-mated vehicle (AV) features, with a focus on ensuring consistent and reproducible testing across various scenarios. The document delineates a systematic approach to integrating operational design domains (ODD), levels of automation, and vehicle behaviors into AV feature descriptions. Through the development of a feature description framework and a corresponding testing template, the report provides guidance on how to measure and validate the performance of AV features under controlled and variable conditions. Key elements of the methodology include detailed behavior specifications, performance metrics, and scenario-based testing, which are essential for evaluating the effectiveness and safety of AV technologies. The report also explores the application of simulation-based testing to assess AV feature behaviors in a dynamic and virtual environment, providing a critical link between theoretical frameworks and practical implementation. The outcomes aim to enhance communication among manufacturers, regulators, and other stakeholders, promoting a unified understanding of AV capabilities and compliance.
