Published: November 2023

Selama proses produksi, mesin pemotong memproduksi beragam tipe produk baja, seperti Equel Angel, I beam, H beam, WF beam, dan U channel sesuai dengan standar pabrik dan sesuai dengan permintaan pelanggan. Operator QC (Quality Control) memotong sampel baja profil dengan hot saw di pabrik Krakatau Baja Konstruksi. Penelitian ini memastikan bahwa bar baja yang dibuat sesuai dengan kriteria perusahaan melalui penggunaan hot saw. Penelitian ini menggunakan observasi dan wawancara. Saat sebuah mesin menggunakan sensor dan tidak ada operator yang membantunya, mesin tersebut dianggap otomatis. Sistem kontrol mesin hot saw PT. Krakatau Baja Konstruksi sebagian besar adalah semi otomatis. Siemens WinCC digunakan untuk membuat HMI (Human Machine Interface) pada sistem kontrol mesin pemotong besi panas di PT. Krakatau Baja Konstruksi. Hal ini berfungsi sebagai gambar grafis mesin pemotong besi di area cooling bed pabrik produksi baja profil. Kondisi ini memudahkan operator untuk mengoperasikan mesin pemotong besi. Standar kontrol kualitas juga memiliki toleransi untuk batas deviasi toleransi atau patokan baja profil yang ditetapkan oleh PT. Krakatau Baja Konstruksi. Hasil penelitian menjelaskan bahwa semakin besar nilai volume dimensi produk yang dipotong oleh mesin hot saw, maka durasi pemotongannya semakin lama. Hal ini ditunjukkan dengan data volume dimensi produk 200 mm x 200 mm x 20 mm memiliki durasi pemotongan 6,19 detik.

The immune system is a defense system of the human body that has a function to protect humans from foreign. One of the indicators of an increased immune system is an increase in the number and type of the leukocyte cell (lymphocytes and monocyte) and lymph weight. In Indonesia, many natural ingredients can be used as an alternative medicine to maintain the immune system, including the Lingzhi mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum). The purpose of this study was to determine the pharmacological activity of Lingzi mushroom extract on the number and type of leukocytes (lymphocytes and monocyte) as well as spleen weight in white male swiss webster mice. The method of this research is an experimental laboratory with a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) using a post-test control group design. The sample population taken was 25 mice divided into five groups including negative, positive, test 1 (5.6mg/20g BW of mice), test 2 (11.2mg/20g BW of mice), test 3 (16.8 mg/20 g BW of mice). Each group consists of 5mice. The data collection was obtained from the result of the cell count, leukocyte cell count, and lymph weight in mice which was carried out after the treatment with lingzhi mushroom extract for 6 days. The results showed that a test 2 (11.2mg/20g BW in mice) was effective to increase the number of a leukocyte, test 3 (16.8mg/20gr BW of mice) was effective to increase leukocyte, lymphocytes and lymph weight. However, test 1, 2, and 3 reduced amount of neutrophil segment. Lingzhi mushroom extract test 3 showed better than other groups due to increase of leukocyte, monocyte, lymphocyte and lymph.

Published: November 2023

The aim of this research is to provide empirical evidence regarding the effect of Covid-19 on earnings quality with corporate governance as a moderator. Based on agency theory, corporate governance is a monitoring mechanism to improve quality. All manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) with a research period of 2017-2022 were used as samples for this research. Using purposive sampling technique, the total of observations was 624 from 104 samples. Covid-19 is a dummy variable with the value (1) being in the Covid-19 period (2020-2022) and (0) other than the Covid-19 period (2017-2019). Corporate governance used in this research is the size of the board of directors and the proportion of independent commissioners. All hypothesis tested by using multiple linear regression techniques, IBM SPSS 25. Earnings quality is proxied by accrual earnings management and real earnings management. The research results prove that real earnings management occurs in the form of RM1, RM3 and RM TOTAL. Covid-19 does not cause the practice of accrual earnings management and real earnings management in the form of RM2. Furthermore, corporate governance is unable to moderate in explaining the relationship between Covid-19 and earnings quality.

Authors: Silalahi Heriantonius , Budi Kurnia
Published: November 2023

This study addresses a significant issue within Indonesia's income tax policy, focusing on the taxation of fringe benefits and non-monetary compensations. Fringe benefits, being non-monetary rewards granted to employees, have gained prominence in various sectors' remuneration structures. The evolving landscape of in-kind taxation, encompassing natural elements, prompts inquiries into the determinants of tax imposition choices and their equity ramifications. The study aims to explore the income tax perspective on fringe benefits and non-monetary gains, emphasizing the applicability of the matching principle and its implications for equitable taxation. Despite the rising importance of fringe benefits, scholarly discourse on the alignment of conformity principles with in-kind taxes remains sparse. Therefore, this study offers a fresh contribution in comprehending this matter. Employing both a policy analysis and taxation approach, the study draws data from literature, tax statutes, and the latest economic reports. The findings underscore the significance of integrating the conformity principle in the taxation of fringe benefits and non-monetary rewards. This integration can augment the efficiency and transparency of state financial management, curbing detrimental tax avoidance practices that undercut state revenue. In summary, this study validates that adopting the conformity principle in taxing fringe benefits and non-monetary gains holds the potential to bolster state revenue and enhance fiscal management efficiency. The research's implications can guide policy makers in refining the national tax framework and fostering equitable taxation in Indonesia.

Tax avoidance is a deliberate strategic approach that companies employ to reduce their tax liabilities while remaining compliant with relevant tax regulations. The complexity of tax avoidance arises from its dual nature, where, on one side, it remains within the bounds of legality, and yet, on the other side, it is deemed undesirable by the government due to its adverse impact on national revenue. The objective of this research is to investigate how both the size and profitability of a company influence its engagement in tax avoidance between mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) from 2018 to 2022. This research utilized a descriptive quantitative methodology and for sample was selected through purposive sampling, identifying 14 companies meeting predefined criteria. The data collected was subjected to analysis using IBM SPSS Statistics 25, which included Classical Assumption Tests, Multiple Linear Regression Analysis, and Hypothesis Testing. The results of this study indicated a noteworthy impact of profitability on tax avoidance, while the size of the company did not demonstrate a significant influence on tax avoidance. Moreover, the observation revealed that the joint consideration of both profitability and company size had a significant impact on tax avoidance.

The Effect of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) on Firm Performance With Earnings Management As a Moderation: Empirical Evidence Around COVID–19
Authors: Rahcmatulloh Redho , Suranta Eddy
Published: November 2023

The primary goal of this research is to elucidate the influence of Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG) performance on a company's overall performance. The research employs the ESG level as the independent variable for evaluation, which is the novelty of the study. The performance of the corporation is evaluated using various indicators, including financial performance (ROA), profitability (ROE), and Tobin's Q, which are regarded as reliant variables. Additionally, the study introduces the Modified by Jones Model of earnings management as a moderating factor. The analytical approach encompasses the application of multiple linear regression techniques. To ensure a representative sample, we conducted purposive sampling to select 120 observations from manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange that consistently maintained their ESG index during the period spanning from 2018 to 2022, including the turbulent period of the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings of this research reveal that the ESG index exerts a positive and statistically significant influence on ROA, ROE, and Tobin's Q. Furthermore, it is noteworthy that earnings management does not possess the capacity to moderate the relationship between ESG and company performance. The implications of this study are substantial, as it lends support to the application of legitimacy theory and agency theory in the context of ESG and corporate performance. However, it's important to acknowledge that the study's scope is limited to Indonesia, and consequently, the findings may not be directly applicable to other developing nations.

Metakognitiv terapi
Authors: Nordahl Henrik , Hjemdal Odin , Johnson Sverre U. , Nordahl Hans M.
Published: November 2023

Metacognitive therapy (MCT) was developed by Adrian Wells and is founded on the self-regulatory executive function (S-REF) model, often referred to as the metacognitive model of psychological disorder. The metacognitive model assumes that symptoms of psychological disorder will naturally subside through a process of reflexive self-regulation. However, this process can be blocked by a cognitive attentional syndrome (CAS), consisting of worry, rumination, threat monitoring and maladaptive coping behaviours, and lead to prolonged emotional distress. The CAS is under the influence of a metacognitive control system, and biases in metacognitive knowledge held by this system are assumed to constitute the central mechanisms underlying the CAS and therefore psychological disorders in general. MCT was specially developed to achieve metacognitive change and enhance self-regulation using a set of transdiagnostic treatment techniques and procedures. In the current paper we present MCT, its conceptual foundation and central features. We briefly present some of the empirical evidence supporting the metacognitive model and therapy and how MCT can be applied to a case named Nadine.

Published: November 2023

Unified Protocol (UP) is a transdiagnostic treatment aimed at promoting emotion regulation skills in patients with emotional disorders. The approach targets maintaining factors common to many disorders, in line with recent knowledge about broad dimensions of personality underlying various diagnoses. It allows for the simultaneous treatment of comorbid disorders and can simplify training and treatment implementation. Central to emotional disorders is the individual’s negative reaction to their own emotions, and attempts to cope with them through avoidance or suppression. The goal of UP is to strengthen core skills that enable more adaptive ways of dealing with one’s emotions. These skills include understanding emotions, non-judgemental awareness, flexible thinking, the ability to do the opposite of avoidance behaviours, increased tolerance for physical sensations, and the ability to plan and carry out emotional exposure. In this article, we provide an overview of what a UP approach entails and illustrate this through the case of ‘Nadine’.

Este estudo se propõe a refletir a respeito da repercussão de campanhas contrárias à doação de esmolas a pessoas em situação derua, que vêm se tornando frequentes em algumas cidades brasileiras. Nosso objetivo é identificar quais as principais teses defendidas pelos segmentos responsáveis por essas campanhas e pelas pessoas que as apoiam. Para isso, vamos tomar como corpus alguns cartazes que foram publicados no Instagram do Padre Júlio Lancellotti e os comentários de internautas a favor das campanhas, publicados no mesmon Instagram. Para a descrição e análise dos dados recorremos aos pressupostos da Teoria Semiolinguística do Discurso, o que nos permitiu, a partir da descrição dos principais procedimentos associados aosmodos de organização enunciativo, descritivo, narrativo e argumentativo, propostos por Charaudeau (2008)1, identificar os imaginários representados nos discursos em questão. A partir das análises, constatamos que os discursos contrários às esmolas se fundamentam em valores de ordem ética e pragmática pautados na tese de que as doações são diretamente responsáveis pela manutenção das pessoas na rua e por todos os prejuízos que isso pode causar.

Background: The Extension for Community Health Outcomes (ECHO) model has been used extensively to link care providers in rural communities with experts with the aim of improving local patient care. Objective: The aim of this qualitative research study was to assess the feasibility, acceptability, perceived needs, and contextual factors to guide implementation of a hypertension focused ECHO program for Community Health Extension Workers (CHEWs) in the Federal Capital Territory, Nigeria. Methods: From September 2020 to December 2020, key informant interviews were performed with seven global organizations (hubs) providing ECHO training focused on cardiovascular disease or nephrology to identify contextual factors and implementation strategies used by each hub. In February 2022, seven focus group discussions were performed with 42 frontline healthcare workers in the Federal Capital Territory to inform local adaptation of a hypertension ECHO program. Directed content analysis identified major themes which were mapped to the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research. Qualitative analyses were performed using Dedoose, and results were synthesized using the Implementation Research Logic Model. Results: We found both barriers and facilitators across the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research domains that mapped to a number of constructs in each one. The results of these analyses confirmed that the core components of the ECHO model are a feasible and appropriate intervention for hypertension education of healthcare workers. However, implementing the ECHO program within the Federal Capital Territory may require strategies such as utilizing communications resources effectively, developing incentives to motivate initial participation, and providing rewards or recognition for ongoing engagement. Conclusions: These results provide valuable formative insights to guide implementation of our proposed hypertension ECHO program for CHEWs in the Federal Capital Territory, Nigeria. This information was used for key decisions around: 1) scope and content of training, 2) format and frequency, 3) selection of implementation strategies, and 4) building a community of practice.

Published: November 2023

Excavations at Şanlıurfa Castle are carried out with the permit of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, General Directorate of Cultural Heritage and Museums under the presidency of Prof.Dr. Gülriz Kozbe (Batman University) since 2020. Şanlıurfa Castle is situated on Dambak Hill just south of Balıklıgöl (Pool of Abraham), in the city center. The castle is surrounded by the fortification walls built with cut limestone block stones having the same characteristics with the limestone bedrock on which it was built. Since Şanlıurfa Castle has been excavated for only four years, the knowledge about its foundation and historical sequence are mainly based on Latin, Armenian, Syriac and Arabic written sources. After the death of Alexander the Great, the Seleucid Kingdom (312 BC-63 BC), including Urfa region founded by Seleucus I Nicator, one of his generals during Hellenistic period. He had built a new city on the ruins of the old settlement and named the city as “Edessa”. As a result of the weakening of the Seleucids, the Syriacs declared the Kingdom of Osrhoene (Edess) under the leadership of Aryu (Leo) in132 BC. Thus, it’s the first independent local kingdom seen in Urfa region. Osrhoene, which ruled for about 375 years, was become a Roman Colony in 214. On the basis of the recent archaeological evidence, the earliest data in the castle is the Monument Columns erected just behind the North Wall. Due to its Syriac inscription carved on the eastern column, they are attributed to the 3rd century. Various great or small powers, such as Arameans, Osrhoenes, Eastern Romans, Abbasids, Marwanids, Arab Emirates and Dynasties, Crusaders, Zangids, Ayyubids, Seljuks, Mongols, Mamluks, Aqqoyunlus, Qaraqoyunlus, Safavids and Ottomans wanted to take control of the city, often intervened in the castle and were implementing their own defense strategies. The 2020-2023 archaeological excavations at Şanlıurfa Castle were carried out in three different areas such as “Sector A” which covers the remains of two Monument Columns in the center of the castle adjacent to the Northern Wall; “Sector B” situated in the western part of the castle where a monumental building (mansion) with vaults and stairs exposed and the “Western Towers Sector” where three towers appear at the far west of the castle. There is no doubt that the historical and cultural details of the castle will gain more meaning when the architectural remains are evaluated together with the artifacts such as pottery assemblages, weapons, tools, coins, and etc. For more detailed information, please refer to the Extended Abstract at the end of the text

This article presents an overview of the use in folk medicine of yarrow (Achillea L.) genus plants. The purpose of the review is to systematize and summarize the existing scientific data on the ethnopharmaceutical use and distribution of yarrow species. Yarrow is a genus of herbaceous plants known for its medicinal properties and wide use in folk and contemporary medicine. The genus Achillea, one of the most famous genera of this Asteraceae family, has about 150 species growing throughout the northern hemisphere, 14 species of which are found on the territory of Kazakhstan. The data being reviewed show a wide range of uses for Achillea plants ranging from central nervous system diseases to gastrointestinal disorders. It is noted that only three Kazakh species of yarrow are known to be used in folk medicine: A. filipendulina, A. millefolium, A. nobilis. At the same time, only A. filipendulina has found application in local folk practice as a remedy for gastrointestinal diseases and as an abortive agent. According to this observation, it was accepted that the species of A. filipendulina is of significant scientific and practical interest as an object of research.

Through dental extraction, dentists are able to eliminate infectious foci that can lead to systemic problems in patients during their admission to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Therefore, the objective of this study was to analyze the influence of dental extraction on laboratory exams of ICU patients, identify the profile of patients undergoing dental extraction in the ICU, and assess the safety of performing this procedure in critically ill patients. A retrospective analysis of medical records was conducted for patients admitted to the ICUs of two public hospitals, both before and after the dental extraction procedure. The following tests were examined: daily laboratory glucose levels and daily leukocyte counts for a period of ten days. The profile of patients requiring dental extractions in the ICU, in order, includes those admitted for respiratory diseases, sepsis, heart disease, and kidney problems. There were no statistically significant differences in blood glucose and leukocyte values after the dental extractions. Therefore, this study suggests that when dental extractions are properly indicated, they are a safe procedure as they do not cause significant worsening in leukocyte counts or glycemia, and they do not increase mortality in ICU patients.
Cultural identity in the Amazon: ethnography of indigenous people day in Aipã Anambé (PA/Bazil)
Authors: Araújo Ezequiel Fonseca , Cruz Fernando Manuel Rocha da
Published: November 2023

This reflection deals with the culture and identity of a traditional indigenous community in the interior of the Amazon. Through the process of reconfiguring identities, in dialogue with modernity, we analyze the negotiations and conflicts between a traditional way of life and external references to the community. Methodologically, we draw on the ethnography of social practices of self-affirmation in the Aipã Anambé indigenous community, the locus of the research, analyzing the subjects who, displaced and decentered from themselves, reconfigure their identities while maintaining cultural traditions, customs, ritualizations and other identity elements. The thesis that guides this reflection is based on the fact that the Anambé, due to a series of social, economic and cultural factors, have currently gone through a significant process of (re)construction of their identities, modifying customs and traditions, in addition to the incorporation of new identity and cultural elements arising from coexistence with modern society.

Charcoal is a product used for various purposes in the pharmaceutical, chemical, steel and metallurgical industries, as well as for domestic use, gasifiers for producing electricity in rural areas, among others. The aim of this study was to analyze the production of charcoal from planted and native forests in Brazil and in the state of Pará. The databases used to compile scientific articles were: Periódicos Capes, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Scopus and Scielo, using the keywords: charcoal, production, economics, extractivism and forestry. Charcoal production in Brazil and Pará is mainly directed towards steel and metallurgical plants. In Brazil and Pará in the years studied, there was a reduction in the production of charcoal from extractivism, while the production of charcoal from planted forests increased.

Objective: To assess anthropometric evolution and neuropsychomotor development (DNPM) in children with congenital syphilis (CS). Method: A longitudinal and prospective study involving 66 mother/baby pairs, utilizing data from hospital discharge summaries, pregnancy cards, and quarterly outpatient follow-up appointments. Children who had not been followed up for 18 months, anoxic, premature or had a syndrome were excluded. Socioeconomic data, prenatal care, treatment, birth conditions, dietary history, anthropometric data and NPMD were collected. Results: A progressive deterioration in diet quality was observed, with 22.7% overweight/obesity, 22.4% at risk of DNPM delay, and 10.3% potentially delayed with statistical significance due to a diet rich in flour and simple carbohydrates, inadequate maternal treatment, and a higher number of children. Conclusion: Missed prenatal care opportunities and social vulnerability are related to the growth and DNPM of children with CS.

The insufficiency of public policies that guarantee access to social rights such as health have mobilized citizens to seek, through the judiciary, the provision of health products and services. In the field of public health, compliance with court decisions is reflected in the management of resources by federated entities that carry out health actions based on the organization established in the Federal Constitution and infraconstitutional legislation, which is not always observed in the numerous processes that deal with the matter. in Brazilian courts. The work intends to analyze, through the study of a concrete case, which is the judicialization of access to the treatment of Spinal Muscular Atrophy - SMA, given the extremely high cost of drugs for the treatment of the disease, what are the parameters adopted by the judges when determining the obligation to supply by a public entity and make a comparison with the existing public policy in the SUS, promote interdisciplinarity between the two areas of knowledge, legal and public health, aiming to contribute to rational use of public resources resulting from judicial decisions and in the development of public policies for the treatment of AME.

This study investigated the experiences of women with higher education on fertility rate in Mazabuka district, Zambia. It is based on contraceptive practice and reproduction, transcendence of cultural beliefs and practices that suppress women on fertility control. The study invoked the theory of demand and supply promulgated by Gary and Becker. The interpretive phenomenological research design was utilised. A sample of fifteen educated women, possessing a minimum of master’s degree, were purposively sampled. Data was collected through face-to-face interviews was analysed, using Inductive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) thematic analysis. The findings of the research among others, revealed that the years of schooling had affected educated women’s fertility because they postponed marriage and child bearing due to schooling. The study also found that years of schooling had promoted, empowered and given women the independence to an extent that some men were intimidated to marry them. The women were also aware of the benefits, risks, effectiveness, effects and the correct use of contraceptives. Based on the findings, the study recommends, among others, the need for society to be sensitised on the social, economic and private benefits of marrying and having children with an educated woman.
