Published: December 2024

Bile duct stones is one of common  cause of obstructive jaundice.Endoscopic procedure less expensive open surgical approach. Cross sectional study was done.Objectives to compare the therapeutic outcome of ERCP in comparison to open bile duct exploration.The study was carried out in the department of surgery in BSMMU from 1st july 2007 to june 2009.
Methods : A total of 50 patients with choledocholithiasis were evaluated in the department of surgery, BSMMU . Initial evaluation of the patients by history, clinical examination were performed and associated with or without increased alkaline phosphates, serum bilirubin, SGOT, SGPT, and prothrombin time and common bile duct stones or a CBD diameter dilated or not on ultrasonography.  Patient’s prothrombin time and control time difference more than 3 were excluded due to avoid massive bleeding in ERCP and they were treated accordingly to perform ERCP. Baseline laboratory investigation  were done for each patient as pre-requisite of ERCP or open cholidocholithotomy.
Results: out of 50 patients 11 were male and 14 were female in group I. In group II 12 were male and 13 were female. The male female ratio 1:2. Post-operative jaundice was found 1 (4%)  in group I, wound infection 3(12%) in group II.
Conclusion : ERCP is a safe and highly accurate diagnostic procedure in experience hands. Therapeutic potential associated with cholangiography includes endoscopic sphingterotomy, stone removal from bile ducts and placement of various kinds of stents to bridge benign and malignant stenosis. So, the management of bile duct stones and the palliation of malignant biliary stricture have largely shifted from surgery to endoscopy.

Authors: Prajoko Yan Wisnu , Korwa Ivani Yunita , Junita Dila
Published: December 2024

Background: Breast-related Symptom Questionnaire (BREAST-Q) has been globally used and validated to measure the outcomes among women undergoing various breast surgery. There was a lack of tools to evaluate patient’s quality of life and satisfaction after mastectomy in Indonesia. In addition, most patients in Indonesia may feel reluctant to express their honest opinions regarding the post-operative outcome openly. Prior to this issue, this study aims to translate and validate the BREAST-Q Mastectomy Module into Bahasa Indonesia, which can be applied to the Indonesian population. Method: Primarily based on the guidelines from the International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcome Research (ISPOR), the process includes preparation, forward translation, back translation, panel discussion, cognitive debriefing interview with 57 respondents, statistic evaluation of validity and reliability, and final consensus. Results: Two translators worked on two different forward translation, while a third translator handled the back translation. The translations were then discussed and reviewed to reach an agreement on the finalized version. Statistic evaluation showed Pearson’s r value 0.26 in all items, with Cronbach’s alpha range 0.72–0.92 ( 0.70). Bland-Altman plots comparison showed that the direction of the mean difference between score 1 and score 2 is close to zero. At the same time, the limits of agreements exceed the minimally detectable change for both scales, indicating all items are valid, reliable, and reflect the concepts of the BREAST-Q Mastectomy Module. The final version of the Bahasa Indonesia Translation is then approved by the Q-Portfolio team.Conclusion: The translation of BREAST-Q questionnaire Mastectomy Module in Bahasa Indonesia is valid and reliable. It is a suitable instrument to assess the quality of life of patients who underwent mastectomy in the Indonesian population.

Authors: Sriwidyani Ni Putu , Dewi I Gusti Ayu Sri Mahendra , Sinaga Naomi Juliana , Dewi Ni Putu Wulan Tantri
Published: December 2024

Background: Breast carcinoma is a heterogeneous disease, morphologically and molecularly. GATA binding protein 3 (GATA3) is an important marker in breast cancer origin. GATA3 expression and its prognostic value in breast carcinoma are inconsistent. Tumor budding is a small cluster of malignant cells in the invasive edge of the tumor. Breast carcinoma with highgrade tumor budding has an unfavorable prognosis. The objective of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between GATA3 expression and clinicopathological parameters in breast carcinoma including with tumor budding grade. Another objective of this study was to determine the association between GATA3 expression and other clinicopathological factors with nodal status. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study involving breast carcinoma patients at Prof. Dr. I.G.N.G Ngoerah Hospital during the year 2022 who underwent mastectomy and axillary node dissection. GATA3 expression was determined by immunohistochemistry and categorized into weak and strong expression. Tumor budding was evaluated in Hematoxylin Eosin slides and categorized into low and high grades. The association between GATA3 expressions and clinicopathological parameters, and the association between GATA3 expression and clinicopathological parameters with nodal status, were assessed with a chi-square test with a significance level determined at p 0.05. Results: There were 61 breast carcinoma patients with mastectomy and axillary node dissection that fulfilled inclusion and exclusion criteria. GATA3 expression was significantly associated with the histological type (p = 0.012) and molecular subtype (p 0.001) of the tumor. There was an association between nodal status and molecular subtype of tumor (p = 0.012), tumor stage (p = 0.005), and tumor budding grade (p = 0.024), but there was no association between GATA3 expression and nodal status (p = 0.066). Conclusion: GATA3 expression is associated with the histological type and molecular subtype of tumor in breast carcinoma, but not with nodal status. Nodal status was associated with molecular subtype, T stage, and tumor budding grade of tumor.
Myeloid Sarcoma in the Sinonasal Cavity with Orbital Involvement: A Case Report
Authors: Fitriani Dianli , Murti Krisna , Eriza Eriza
Published: December 2024

Introduction: Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a tumor mass that arises outside of the bone marrow area and is composed of either mature or not myeloid blasts of white blood cells. Acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) with an imminent blast crisis, and other underlying undiagnosed myeloproliferative disorders are frequently linked to MS, an uncommon disease. Without a history of leukemia, MS is difficult to diagnose and might be misdiagnosed for lymphoma or undifferentiated carcinoma. For patients, correct tissue diagnosis based on immunohistochemistry and histomorphology is important.Case Presentation: Here, we present a 27-year-old woman who had a surgical procedure in The Department of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery with the chief complaint of right nasal congestion and growing right eye protrusion. A solid mass in the right sinonasal region with infiltration into the retrobulbar area was confirmed by a head computed tomography (CT) scan. Cells with small to medium-sized cells, finely distributed chromatin, tiny nucleoli, and sparse cytoplasm were examined under a microscope. These cells were grouped in diffuse, linear, or Indian file patterns. Microscopic examination revealed morphology of myeloid tumor. Immunohistochemistry analysis emphasized the diagnosis of myeloid sarcoma. The patient then had chemotherapy, comprising of six cycles of docetaxel and carboplatin. After completing chemotherapy, a reduction in the size of the tumor mass was observed.Conclusions: MS was diagnosed based on histological, radiographic, and immunohistochemical studies. Additional immunohistochemistry analysis testing is necessary to rule out a number of differential diagnoses when diagnosing MS in patients without a history of leukemia or hematological malignancy. The positive expression of myeloid markers such as CD68, CD15, CD33, and CD34 supports a diagnosis of MS.

Authors: Andinata Bob , Marleen Stella , Partahi Jeremy Romeo
Published: December 2024

Introduction: Commonly referred to as paragangliomas or glomus caroticum, carotid body tumors (CBT) are rare tumors that develop close to the carotid artery’s branching point and are generally benign. Only 0.6% of all head and neck tumors in humans are CBT, which are rare malignancies of chemical receptors. The surgical classification presented by Shamblin et al. is a significant turning point in assessing the resectability of these tumors. These tumors are frequently diagnosed and surgically prepared using magnetic resonance imaging, which provides crucial information for surgical planning. The purpose of this case report was to describe the diagnosis and treatment of CBT.Case Presentation: A 26-year-old woman with a carotid body tumor is presented. She had a painless, progressively growing bulge on the right side of her neck. The patient previously had a history of a lump appearing in the same location and was operated in 2015; the results of anatomic pathology were non-specific chronic lymphadenitis. The diagnosis was made based on history, and clinical and radiological examination findings. The results from the MRI were a mass in the right carotid bifurcation region to the right carotid space. Therefore, surgical excision was performed. Conclusions: Surgical excision was performed after the carotid body tumor was determined to be Type I according to Shamblin’s categorization. The conclusion of the histopathology report was histologic consistent with Schwannoma. The patient showed no signs of surgical complications. Comprehensive surgical methods reduce the possibility of complications and ensure a safe resection.n’s type I, surgical exicision

The concept of vectors in mathematics is defined as a quantity that has a value and direction. Students' interpretation of the concept of vector value and direction becomes a problem because of the adjustment of the sources of understanding used by students in learning. This study aims to analyze the introduction of the concept of vector value and direction in mathematics textbooks. A mathematics textbook for grade X high school in the independent curriculum was reviewed using the theory of praxeology. The analysis process was carried out in three main stages, namely the examination of the praxis block, analysis of the logos block, and evaluation of the structure of the praxis textbook. The test results showed that there were problems in the praxis block, namely the presentation of unclear visual data and the problem of the sequence of material in the logos block and learning was only limited to one context. The results can explore the potential for ontogenic obstacles, namely in the praxis block and the potential for didactic and epistemological obstacles in the logos block. The findings in this study indicate the need for improvements to textbooks.
Unearthing Sunken Treasures: Harnessing Underwater Cultural Heritage For Tourism Growth In Galle, Sri Lanka
Authors: Lathisha Jayangi Ramanayaka Suduweli Kondage
Published: December 2024

The allure of delving into ancient, submerged realms has catapulted underwater cultural heritage to prominence within the marine tourism sector. Among the coastal jewels of Sri Lanka, Galle stands out as a city steeped in historical significance, having functioned as a bustling harbour for generations. Beneath its waves lies an underwater museum of artifacts that hold the potential to redefine the tourism landscape of the city. This study ventures into the depths to explore how these sunken treasures could be harnessed to invigorate tourism in Galle. The primary aim is to unravel the role that underwater cultural heritage could play in shaping and enhancing the tourism narrative of Galle City. By evaluating Galle’s capacity to leverage this unique resource, the research seeks to determine how well the city is equipped to cater to this emerging niche and how it can turn its underwater assets into a vibrant tourism draw. To achieve this, the study employs a qualitative research methodology, drawing insights through semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders, including tourism service providers, maritime archaeologists, and museum officials. This approach allows for a nuanced understanding of the existing perceptions and potential of underwater heritage tourism. The data collected were subjected to rigorous content analysis, revealing several critical findings: the substantial underwater cultural heritage assets of the Galle City, the growing interest among tourists in these submerged artifacts, and the current shortcomings in managing and promoting these resources effectively. The findings of the study suggest that an integrated approach—one that intertwines tourism development with the preservation and promotion of underwater heritage—could create a symbiotic relationship. Such a strategy promises to not only enhance the appeal of Galle as a tourist destination but also ensure the sustainable management of its underwater cultural treasures. By fostering this harmony, both the tourism sector and the heritage assets can thrive, enriching the historical and economic landscape of the Galle City

Published: December 2024

This study aims to examine the influence of perceptions of accessibility to tourism on the prestige motivation of visitors to Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, categorizing accessibility into physical and non-physical. This research employs a quantitative approach, utilizing multiple regression statistical analysis to explore the relationship between independent and dependent variables. 200 samples were obtained through a questionnaire distributed to Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park visitors who had visited at least once. The collected data were subsequently analyzed using multiple linear regression testing. The findings of this study reveal that: 1) perceptions of both physical and non-physical accessibility simultaneously influence the prestige motivation of visitors to Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park; 2) perceptions of physical accessibility, when analyzed separately, do not have an impact on prestige motivation, while perceptions of non-physical accessibility do have a significant effect; 3) the combined influence of perceptions of physical and non-physical accessibility on prestige motivation is relatively low, accounting for only 15.7%, while the remaining 84.3% is influenced by other variables not addressed in this study. This research recommends that future studies expand on the concepts of physical and non-physical accessibility by incorporating additional indicators based on other tourism theories.
Ottoman Millet System and its Significance to Contemporary Holistic Interreligious Dialogue
Authors: Rizal Maulana Abdullah Muslich , Musdalifah Sitti Amalia
Published: December 2024

The issues of religious freedom and interreligious relations have been extensively debated. While the emergence of new theories and views often leads to the destruction of religious identity, in fact, tolerance and freedom lead to a strong religious identity. The Ottoman Turkish Empire, which once oversaw a third of the world's territory, presented a system that regulated existing differences. The system, named the Ottoman millet system, allegorized its people into religious communities to make it easier for religious believers to express their religious identity. The purpose of this study is to reveal the relevance of the system to the form of interreligious dialogue and harmony that occurs in the lives of religious communities. To reveal the answer fot this research question, the researcher used the content analysis method and the qualitative-phenomenological approach by looking at the object of research based on the phenomenon of how people under the Islamic rule of Ottoman Turkey as the subject of research could coexist despite coming from different nations and religions. The result found that the Ottoman millet system was implemented successfully because of the agreement of two elements in the state, namely its citizens in carrying out their obligations and the government that gave them their citizenship rights. The level of religiosity is one of the critical factors in applying this system in that era because of a deep understanding of tolerance between religious communities.
An Analysis of the Criminalization of Forced Marriage from the Perspective of Dzari'ah Theory
Authors: Sunarto Muhammad Zainuddin , Fadil Fadil , Suwandi Suwandi
Published: December 2024

The practice of forced marriage that is cultured in society has many negative effects, one of which is that women are a group that is vulnerable to various forms of domestic violence, both physically, psychologically, sexually, and economically. Criminal law is expected to overcome the high rate of domestic violence that occurs due to forced marriage. In the case of forced marriage, criminal law is important in anticipation of domestic violence. The focus of this research is how forcing marriage as a criminal act uses the theory of dzari'ah. The factors that affect the occurrence of forced marriage are patriarchal culture and ideology that are socialized in society. In the patrilineal system, marriage is often a tool to strengthen inter-clan or family relationships. The correlation between forced marriage and the right of ijbar wali shows that the practice of forced marriage in the community is also greatly influenced by the right of ijbar wali. The criminalization of forced marriage has been by dzari'ah, in practice there is a certain motivation from the perpetrator of coercion to make the victim forced to carry out marriage on the one hand, and on the other hand, the consequences arising from the marriage on which one of the spouses is forced to carry out the marriage. The TPKS Law has translated the basic values of Grundnorm into daily legal practice. This shows how the implementing norm expresses Grundnorm's values through concrete legal sanctions that are in line with the mandate of the 1945 Constitution to protect citizens.

Islamic religion teachers act as educators who not only teach religious materials, but also shape students' characters. This study aims to explore the role of Islamic religion teachers in overcoming students' egocentrism in madrasah. Egocentrism, which is characterized by excessive focus on oneself, can hinder students' social interaction and character development. The research method used is qualitative, with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. The research subjects involved religion teachers, students, and parents at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Ibrahimy Sukoerjo, Situbondo, East Java. The results showed that religion teachers have an important role in instilling moral and ethical values through interactive teaching methods. The strategies applied include example-based learning, group discussions, and social activities that prioritize empathy and cooperation. In addition, parental support and a positive school culture contribute significantly to reducing students' egocentrism. However, challenges such as a lack of training for teachers and academic pressures remain limiting factors. The findings emphasize the importance of collaboration between teachers, parents and the community in creating a learning environment that supports students' character development. This research is expected to provide insights for the development of more effective educational programs in shaping empathic and social attitudes among madrasah students.

Authors: Danil Danil , Rahmadanita Annisa
Published: December 2024

One way to accelerate the digitalization of public services is through digital population identity (IKD) innovation. However, in its implementation, the percentage achievement of Digital Population Identity in Sambas Regency has only reached around seven percent. This is yet to be in accordance with the government's mandate that the national target was 25 percent of the total population in December 2023; even in 2024, it is targeted to be 30 percent. The purpose of the research is to obtain an overview and analyze the innovation of IKD implementation at the Population and Civil Registration Office of Sambas Regency. The research method is quasi-qualitative. Researchers used semi-structured interviews, observation, and documentation. The results showed that the knowledge stage was shown through the socialization carried out by the Sambas Regency Population and Civil Registration Office through social media and ball pickup and the existence of clear procedures related to IKD activation. The persuasion stage is shown through the good attitude and response of the Sambas Regency Disdukcapil apparatus to follow up on IKD innovations. The decision stage is shown through the existence of good internal and external communication. The implementation stage shows that the development of achievements since the beginning of the implementation of IKD has not been significant due to the adjustment factor to its use in the community, especially for people who are elderly and technology illiterate. The confirmation stage is shown through the support of regional leaders in continuing the implementation of IKD innovations. However, there are still obstacles related to internet networks, especially in remote areas. In conclusion, the innovation of implementing the IKD application at the Population and Civil Registration Office of Sambas Regency is implemented quite well, and this is because of the five dimensions used; there are still two dimensions that require improvement, namely the Implementation and Confirmation dimensions.

Pemerintah daerah memiliki kewenangan dalam penyediaan dan pengelolaan barang milik daerah untuk mendukung pelaksanaan tugas, fungsi, dan pelayanan kepada masyarakat. Optimalisasi aset daerah menjadi tantangan utama dalam menciptakan sistem manajemen yang efektif dan efisien. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis optimalisasi pemanfaatan aset tetap tanah dalam meningkatkan pendapatan asli daerah di Kabupaten Manokwari, serta mengidentifikasi faktor penghambat dan upaya penanggulangannya.
Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kualitatif deskriptif, dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui wawancara mendalam dan studi dokumentasi. Penelitian dilaksanakan dari Agustus 2023  hingga Juni2024, melibatkan 5 informan kunci dari Badan Pengelola Keuangan dan Aset Daerah Kabupaten Manokwari. Analisis data menggunakan teori pemanfaatan aset Siregar (2021) yang mencakup lima dimensi: inventarisasi aset, legal audit, penilaian aset, optimalisasi aset, serta pengawasan dan pengendalian.
Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemanfaatan aset tetap tanah dan bangunan oleh Badan Pengelola Keuangan dan Aset Daerah Kabupaten Manokwari belum sepenuhnya optimal. Dari lima dimensi yang diteliti, hanya dimensi pengawasan dan pengendalian yang telah berjalan optimal, sementara empat dimensi lainnya masih memerlukan peningkatan. Faktor-faktor penghambat utama meliputi: 1) belum adanya pemetaan potensi aset tetap secara komprehensif, 2) kurangnya sosialisasi potensi kerjasama pemanfaatan aset kepada pihak ketiga, dan 3) kompleksitas proses birokrasi dan regulasi terkait. Upaya-upaya yang telah dilakukan untuk mengoptimalkan pemanfaatan aset meliputi: 1) melaksanakan inventarisasi aset secara menyeluruh dengan fokus pada potensi pemanfaatan, 2) meningkatkan pendataan administratif untuk memperkuat pengamanan dan pengendalian aset, serta 3) mengevaluasi prosedur perizinan dan regulasi terkait pemanfaatan aset tanah dan bangunan.
