Published: September 2024

The production of functional foods is expanding and requiring research results in the areas of food, health, chemistry, pharmaceuticals, etc. Within this context, the inclusion of kefir in the diet has been gaining ground, as it meets the requirements of a functional food. Kefir can be defined as a fermented, acidic milk with a low alcohol content and produced from grains that contain microorganisms that carry out the fermentation process. Kefir can be produced using various means, such as milk or water-based substrates. In both process, the production is very similar. Kefir is composed of microorganisms such as bacteria and yeasts that are often welcomed by the population as a probiotic source and are regularly used in the production of food and/or medicine by the industry. To produce water kefir, sucrose is used, and the process is carried out at temperatures ranging from 20℃ to 25℃, with an incubation time between 12 and 72 hours in this context. The objective of this work was to present a literature review on the characterization of milk and water-based kefir.

Published: September 2024

This research aims to develop valid and reliable measuring tool for students' algebraic abilities that can be used in schools and the general public. The research follows a structured test development design, including stages such as preparing test specifications and items, field testing, revising items, and test development. The questions are aligned with the 2013 curriculum syllabus, ensuring relevance to educational standards. The test was given to 662 junior high school students in Kendari City, Indonesia, and their responses were analyzed using the item response theory (IRT) model with two logistic parameters: item difficulty level and item discriminatory power. The BILOG MG program was employed to estimate item and ability parameters. Before conducting item analysis with IRT, essential assumption tests were conducted, including unidimensional and model fit tests. The results of the development process, based on item analysis using BILOG MG, yielded 15 items covering various aspects of algebraic abilities. These items were derived from indicators such as recognizing algebraic forms, identifying elements within these forms, performing addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division operations on algebraic forms, presenting and solving real-world problems in algebraic contexts, and addressing contextual problems involving algebraic operations. The items demonstrated good fit with the model and exhibited an appropriate level of item difficulty and discriminatory power, making them suitable for use as a reliable assessment tool. Consequently, these developed tests are deemed effective for measuring students' foundational algebraic abilities.

Published: September 2024

This study examines the landscape of executive function (EF) assessments for Indonesian adolescents, focusing on their psychometric properties. The adolescent development phase, marked by cognitive growth, presents opportunities and risks, especially in education settings where well-developed EF is beneficial. This research used a qualitative approach, with a systematic literature review method using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis), analyzing peer-reviewed empirical studies from databases such as SCOPUS and others, focusing on EF measurements for adolescents in Indonesia from 2014 to 2024. Nine studies met the inclusion criteria, highlighting tools like the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function (BRIEF)-Indonesian version, Executive Skills Questionnaire-Revised (ESQ-R), Executive Function Questionnaire (EFQ), and performance-based measures like the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test and Stroop Test. Using content analysis, this study reveals that while the BRIEF is widely used in clinical studies, its applicability in educational settings requires improvement. The findings highlight the importance of adapting EF tools with cultural sensitivity and developing new comprehensive assessments with clear psychometric properties regarding all critical EF components. In recommendations, the study pinpoints a multi-method approach combining inventory-based and performance-based measures to provide a thorough understanding of EF while maintaining practicality for educational settings. The implications for advancing EF research and practice in Indonesia, particularly in education, are discussed, emphasizing the need for reliable, valid, culturally sensitive, and accessible assessment tools.

Ketamine plus Cervical Sympathetic Blockade (CSB) Seems to be Significantly More Effective in Reducing the Symptoms of PTSD and Depression than CSB alone in a PTSD Cohort
Authors: Lipov Eugene , Rolain Hunter , Lammers Luke
Published: September 2024

Purpose: A significant number of Americans have symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and depression. Cervical sympathetic block (CSB) combined with sub-anesthetic ketamine infusions (KI) have been shown to reduce the symptoms of PTSD and depression via a synergistic effect. We aim to report a significant improvement of PTSD and depressive symptoms by concordant use of CSB and KI as compared to CSB alone. Methods: 26 consecutive patients were recruited to study the effects of KI and bilateral CSB vs bilateral CSB alone on sleep via a WHOOP band analysis. Patients were randomized to receive CSB alone vs KI and CSB. Patients received KI and CSB via clinic protocol. Results: Patients (n=11) that received CSB only, demonstrated a PCL reduction of 56.1% and BDI reduction of 59.5%. Patients (n=12) that received CSB and KI together, demonstrated a PCL reduction of 76.9% and a BDI reduction of 83.7%. Conclusion: Bilateral CSB combined with KI seems to be more effective in treating PTSD and depression symptoms as compared to bilateral CSB alone. Considering the size of the study, a larger scale evaluation would be necessary to confirm our findings.

Published: September 2024

Background: Opioid-sparing sedoanalgesia relies on non-opioid multimodal analgesic and sedative agents. It is being developed to decrease or eliminate opioid use for the management of acute postoperative pain to avoid opioid complications. This study aimed to compare ketamine and dexmedetomidine for their efficiency and safety in inducing opioid-sparing sedoanalgesia in patients following open heart surgery. Methods: Ninety adult cardiac patients who underwent open heart surgery were enrolled. They were randomly divided into three groups. Group D received a dexmedetomidine infusion of 0.1– 0.2 μg/kg/hour, group K received a ketamine infusion of 1–2 μg/kg/min while group C received a placebo as a control group. Drugs were given after the operation in the surgical intensive care unit. Total postoperative opioid consumption was the primary outcome. Richmond agitation sedation scale, visual analog pain scale, time to first analgesic request, patient satisfaction, and incidence of any complications were recorded. Results: In this study, we found that the median (interquartile range) postoperative opioid consumption was significantly lower in groups D and K than in group C (156 (40), 140 (83), 185 (110); p < 0.001). Richmond agitation sedation scale was statistically significant until 6 hours postoperative (p-value: < 0.05). Patient satisfaction score was higher in groups D and K than in group C (p-value: 0.005). On the other side, there is no statistically significant difference between the three study groups regarding time to first analgesic request (minutes) (p-value: 0.064) or visual analog pain scale (p-value: > 0.05). Incidence of complications was highly significant between the study groups (p-value: < 0.001). Conclusions: To decrease postoperative opioid use with their multiple side effects and improve patient satisfaction scores in patients undergoing open heart surgery under general anesthesia, the use of either ketamine or dexmedetomidine is recommended in the postoperative period as an adjuvant modality and a good idea with observation of possibility of some preventable side effects.

Published: September 2024

Background: Regional anesthetic techniques including the adductor canal catheter (ACC) have aided management of post-operative pain for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The interspace between the popliteal artery and posterior capsule of the knee (iPACK), has been introduced to address posterior knee pain that is not well covered by the ACC. Studies have looked at the addition of the iPACK block to subjects who received an ACC with and without periarticular local infiltration with varying results. We hypothesized that adding the iPACK block to subjects who also received an ACC and periarticular injection (PAI) would significantly decrease opioid consumption compared to the ACC alone in TKA. Methods: Sixty subjects were randomized to receive an ACC alone (control group) or ACC plus single shot iPACK block (iPACK group) for TKA. All subjects were operated on by the same surgeon and received the same PAI. For the primary outcome of postoperative pain, we used opioid consumption as measured by morphine milligram equivalent (MME). Secondary outcomes included pain scores determined by the visual analog scale (VAS), distance ambulated, time to physical therapy (PT) and length of hospital stay. Results: We did not observe a significant difference between groups for opioid consumption, pain scores, distance ambulated (p > 0.05 across all time points), length of hospital stay (p = 0.64), or time to PT (p = 0.32). Conclusion: When combined with an ACC and PAI, the iPACK block did not significantly decrease opioid consumption, pain scores, time to first PT session or increase distance ambulated.

Published: September 2024

Background: Suicide is estimated to account for 1.4% of deaths worldwide, making it among one the leading causes of premature death. Stellate ganglion block (SGB) has been shown to reduce suicidal ideation in a single case report of a patient with comorbid post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and suicidal ideation. Aims: To report a significant reduction of suicidal ideation using cervical sympathetic block (CSB), a more advanced version of SGB, in a cohort of patients with PTSD. Methods: 254 patients were evaluated for suicidal ideation via pre- and post-suicide risk assessments by using the Depressive Symptom Index - Suicidality Subscale (DSI-SS) as part of a pre- and post-treatment clinical interview. Further included were other psychiatric measures. Patients received CSB as per clinic protocol. Results: Overall, the patients had an average DSI-SS reduction of 43.8%, PCL-5 reduction of 31.7%, GAD-7 reduction of 22.5%, and PHQ-9 reduction of 35.5%, following CSB. Limitations: Lack of control, given this is an open-labeled, case series study. Conclusion: Cervical sympathetic block is a safe and minimally invasive procedure that may provide significant reduction in suicidal ideation as well as symptoms of PTSD.

Published: September 2024

Little information is available on the destruction of Eisenia bicyclis kelp forests (Phaeophyceae: Laminariales) due to overgrazing by sea urchins. In Shizugawa Bay, on the northeastern Pacific coast of Japan, overgrazing by the sea urchin Mesocentrotus nudus caused the destruction of E. bicyclis forests between 2014 and 2015. This study investigated the recovery of an adult kelp forest in relation to sea urchin densities through the continuous removal of sea urchins at 3 permanent experimental transects spanning 100 m2 for 3.8 yr from September 2015 to June 2019. The relationship between the densities of sea urchins and kelp juveniles was also analyzed. Estimates of the threshold density and biomass of sea urchins required to trigger the phase shift from an E. bicyclis forest to a barren were 15.5 ind. m-2 and 712.0 g m-2, respectively. The removal of sea urchins expanded the offshore kelp growth area. However, an increase in adult kelp following the return of juveniles was restricted to the nearshore half of the transects. The successful recruitment of kelp juveniles, followed by the recovery of adult kelp forest, requires reduction of the density of M. nudus of 40-50 mm diameter to 0 or 1 ind. m-2. Reducing sea urchin densities in autumn, when many move from barrens to invade kelp forests, is crucial to ensure the survival of kelp juveniles. This study highlights the presence of an intensified positive feedback mechanism of the barren state due to high grazing intensity and a weakened Oyashio Current.

Published: September 2024

Marriage is a sacred ritual that religious and state laws must legalize. Most people want marriage to be a joyous occasion and a way to publicize their status as husband and wife. However, some people keep their marriages secret. In general, Nikah Sirri celebrates a marriage according to Islamic religious rules. However, many things prevent it from being legally recorded by the authorities, in this case, the government, represented by the Ministry of Religious Affairs.
This research aims to investigate providers of marriage guardian services in siri marriages that have developed in the community through social media. One of these providers can be found on the website ustadz.my.id/jasa-nikah-siri-bekasi, which offers various services related to siri marriages. This research uses qualitative methods and is centered on empirical research. This research uses a socio-legal approach, a broad social science methodological approach. as the Wali Nikah in Sirri Nikah Services. This study conducted the data collection method in two stages: observation and documentation. The study found that because there is an element of gharar or uncertainty, the practice of providing a marriage guardian in a sirri marriage through a website whose address is ustadz.my.id/jasa-nikah-siri-bekasi is not justified by Islamic legal review. Thus, this element of gharar hinders the practice of providing marriage guardians in sirri marriages. This is in line with the prohibition of the prophet Muhammad to avoid buying and selling gharar.

Published: September 2024

Public flogging is required by this jinayat law, which has existed since 2014. It is thought to be a severe and effective method of law enforcement. But there have also been a lot of complaints and criticisms of this jinayat law, particularly from the standpoint of human rights. The local community's justice, welfare, and peace are the main goals of Aceh's implementation of jinayat law. In the paper utilized for this study, the author employs normative juridical research, which is legal research done by looking through books and relevant statutes and regulations from libraries. This research employs a qualitative approach using a library research method by the study's characteristics. This research also employs a comparative methodology; specifically, the author compares Islamic law, human rights, and the Aceh Qanun Jinayat. As per the Aceh Qanun Jinayat and Islamic law, there is a whipping law for anyone who consumes alcohol. This is evident from the punishment meted out to the alcohol user, who is flogged 40 (forty) times as Uqubat Hudud. Acehnese people have lived under Islamic law for a long time, earning them the moniker "land of the porch of Makkah." When non-Muslim suspects of violating the qanun voluntarily turn themselves in for punishment, it is evident that Islamic Sharia's conceptions of justice align with the fundamental principles of legal justice and human rights. The courts denied every request for voluntary surrender made by non-Muslim defendants, although they did acknowledge the primary motivators behind their surrender.

This study aims to identify the strategies for building family resilience and welfare by the Population Control and Family Planning Agency (DPPKB) of Bekasi City and to understand these strategies from the perspective of Islamic Family Law. This research employs a qualitative method with a socio-juridical approach and descriptive analysis techniques. The study reveals that family resilience and welfare are among the objectives of family formation in Islamic Family Law. In Islamic Family Law, family welfare is depicted in the concepts of Sakīnah, Mawaddah, and Raḥmah, generally referring to conditions of tranquillity, love, and compassion. Family resilience is also strongly emphasized with provisions regarding the rights and obligations of each family member, including the stipulations on divorce, which underscore the sanctity and strength of marital bonds. Divorce is considered highly undesirable in Islam, and guidelines for family life are provided, ranging from preparation for marriage to raising better future generations. The strategies employed by the DPPKB of Bekasi City in building family resilience and welfare align significantly with the values of Islamic Family Law, particularly in general aspects. However, in detail, these strategies do not fully encompass the comprehensive concepts of family formation and development as outlined in Islamic Family Law.

The enactment of Law No. 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage and all its requirements has led to new issues, including "Nikah Siri." Nikah Siri refers to a marriage conducted secretly or, in other words, a marriage not registered according to the provisions of the Marriage Law. An exciting provision to examine in Law No. 1 of 1974 is Article 2, paragraph (2): "Every marriage shall be registered according to the applicable laws and regulations." However, this law still leaves room for debate because many married people still need to register their marriages with the Marriage Registrar (PPN) at the Office of Religious Affairs. In the decision 0369/Pdt.G/2021/PA.Bks, the Plaintiff filed for the legalization of Marriage to proceed with a divorce from the Defendant. From the perspective of Islamic Law, this legalization is based on the principle of "mashlahah mursalah," meaning for the common good. Meanwhile, the divorce is considered for the mutual benefit of both parties. This study examines the decision of the Bekasi Religious Court, focusing on the cumulative case of marriage legalization and divorce suit Number 0369/Pdt.G/2021/PA.Bks. In this decision, the Bekasi Religious Court's Panel of Judges granted the request for marriage legalization and divorce suit because the Marriage fulfilled Islamic legal requirements and there were no obstacles to Marriage or divorce according to Law No. 1 of 1974 in conjunction with amended Law No. 16 of 2019. The judges' effort in granting marriage legalization is considered a form of leniency (rukhsah) while granting the divorce is for both parties benefit.

Non-Hodgkin lymphomas are tumors that originate from lymphoid tissues, mainly lymph nodes, consisting of B cells, T cells and natural killer cells. Extranodal lymphomas can also occur in any organ of the body, and endobronchial localization is extremely rare. Cough is a condition that impairs the patient's quality of life when it lasts for a long time. Cough exceeding 8 weeks is called chronic cough. The causes of chronic cough are many and sometimes it can be difficult to diagnose. It can be difficult to make a diagnosis with the tests performed in the first place. A stepwise approach is required at the diagnosis stage. We have presented here a patient who was diagnosed with lymphoma after the examinations, who was admitted to us with a cough that did not resolve despite medical treatment, due to the rare occurrence of endobronchial lymphomas.

Re-Imagining the Offender: Exploring the Victim-Offender Overlap in the
Context of Women Perpetrators of Sex Trafficking
Authors: Galibdin Anaya Moez
Published: September 2024

This article examines the involvement of female perpetrators in sex trafficking networks. Field studies, testimonies, and court cases from around the world are analyzed to demonstrate that most female perpetrators were once victims of sex trafficking; and that they turn to the "offender" side of trafficking because of coercion, manipulation, and psychological and socioeconomic vulnerabilities. In this regard, victimization and perpetration are inextricably linked, a fact that is captured by the victim-offender overlap framework. This framework has not yet been incorporated into international legal norms, which causes the past or current victimization experienced by female perpetrators to be dismissed in courts and used for harsher punishments. This article calls for international law to make increasing efforts to acknowledge the circumstances of female perpetrators' offenses and to broaden the scope of the non-punishment principle to break the cycle of violence.
