Comparison of hemoglobin, hematocrit, and lactate values measured by bedside blood gas analyzer with laboratory auto-analyzer values and investigation of their correlations in multiple trauma patients
Authors: Avcı Mustafa
Published: January 2025

Aim: In this study, we aimed to compare venous Hemoglobin (Hb) and Hematocrit (Hct) values measured by bedside blood gas analyzer with standard laboratory auto-analyzer values in multiple trauma patients and to investigate if lactate level is adequate in this correlation.
Methodology: Vascular access was obtained in the antecubital regions of the patients. Simultaneous venous blood samples were drawn, and a blood gas analyzer measured Hb, Hct, and lactate values, and Hb and Hct values were also measured by a laboratory auto-analyzer in the emergency laboratory. The correlation between the values was calculated. In addition, the prediction of laboratory auto-analyzer values from venous blood gas analyzer values was performed using linear regression equations (Regression Equation (y) = a + bx).
Results: A total of 51 patients were included in the study. The median difference between peripheral vein laboratory auto-analyzer values and venous blood gas analyzer values was 0.40 g/dL for Hb and 1.10% for Hct. There were high and very high positive correlations between peripheral vein laboratory auto-analyzer values and venous blood gas analyzer values, with correlation coefficients of 0.693 and 0.862 for Hb and Hct, respectively. The correlation coefficient for Hb increased from 0.693 to 0.827 in 26 patients with lactate values below the 2.5 mmol/L cut-off limit.
We also measured Hb and Hct by laboratory auto-analyzer and blood gas analyzer from simultaneous femoral artery-sourced samples from 40 patients. The median difference between femoral artery-sourced laboratory auto-analyzer values and femoral artery-sourced blood gas analyzer values was 0.20 g/dL for Hb and 0.80% for Hct. There were very high positive correlations between femoral artery-sourced laboratory auto-analyzer values and arterial blood gas analyzer Hb value and femoral artery-sourced laboratory auto-analyzer and arterial blood gas Hct value with correlation coefficients of 0.949 and 0.851, respectively.
Conclusion: In both venous and arterial samples, the differences between the laboratory auto-analyzer and the blood gas analyzer are limited, and the correlations between them are significantly high. Furthermore, the correlation between the venous blood gas auto-analyzer value and the laboratory auto-analyzer value for Hb is even higher when the lactate value is below the 2.5 mmol/L cut-off limit.

Authors: Subhan Subhan , Rahman Fuad , Alfikri Albert
Published: January 2025

This study explores the transintegration of customary law and Islamic law in Jambi in the context of history and culture. With a descriptive qualitative approach, this study uses data collection methods: in-depth interviews with traditional figures, ulama, and the community, field observations, and analysis of historical documents and related legal regulations. Data analysis techniques are carried out by identifying patterns, themes, and changes in the relationship between customary law and sharia. The study results indicate that the integration of customary law and sharia in Jambi has been going on since the time of the Jambi Sultanate, with the important role of figures such as Datuk Orang Kayo Hitam. In family law, Jambi customs accommodate sharia principles such as the prohibition of marrying siblings, although there are differences in specific customary rules. In criminal law, the application of qisas is adapted into customary fines, reflecting an effort to compromise sharia values ​​in the structure of customary law. The challenges of modernization and plurality create dynamics in maintaining the principle of "custom is based on syarak, syarak is based on the Book of Allah". The majority of the community supports preserving customary law that is in line with Islamic values. This study emphasizes the importance of inclusive dialogue between traditional leaders, religious scholars, and the younger generation to ensure the relevance of customary law integrated with Islamic values.

Published: January 2025

Frequently admitted patients (i.e., ‘high utilizers’) comprise a small percentage of all patients yet consume a relatively large proportion of hospital resources. This quality improvement project aimed to reduce hospital resource utilization by implementing individualized care plans (ICPs) for high utilizers. An electronic health record (EHR) report identified high utilizers. A hospitalist workgroup then selected patients who were relatively young with frequent low-risk admissions. The workgroup created and documented ICPs in the EHR, then linked to the ICPs from numerous locations. For the selected patients, total admissions per year were reduced from 125 to 41 (-67%) and days per year in hospital from 497 to 219 (-56%), while length of stay was increased from 4 to 5.4 (+26%) days. Implementation of ICPs can allow high utilizers to spend more time at home, while simultaneously freeing up valuable hospital resources for the community. Making ICPs easily accessible is key to success.

Authors: Kim Joshua , Hoque Farzana
Published: January 2025

Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (pNET) is a rare condition which may present with abdominal pain, dyspepsia, and jaundice. pNETs that do not produce hormones are considered non-functioning and are associated with morbidity through metastasis to nearby organs or mass effect. Metastatic pNET lesions have a propensity to bleed and may lead to significant hemorrhage. We present a case of an older adult who presented with an abdominal wall hematoma in the setting of metastatic pNET. This was resolved with embolization of nearby arteries and subsequent management of pNET with octreotide. This case highlights the importance of recognizing acutely deteriorating progressions of initially stable malignancies.
Lentiform Fork Sign Secondary To Metformin-Induced Encephalopathy
Authors: Santos Michael A
Published: January 2025

The Lentiform Fork sign is an imaging finding on brain MRI described by bilateral, symmetric hyperintensities in the basal ganglia. It is described in the setting of metabolic acidosis of many etiologies and is a sign of vasogenic edema. Both imaging findings and symptoms are often reversible with correction of the acidosis and removal of any identifiable triggers. We report a case of confusion and ataxic gait in a patient with end stage renal disease and ongoing metformin use. The mechanism of metformin-induced encephalopathy remains unclear, but could be due to vulnerability of mitochondria to metformin within the lentiform nuclei.

Published: January 2025

Immune competence, as indicated by the levels of antibody titres, represents a vital component in the production of layer poultry. It contributes significantly to enhancing disease resistance, thereby reducing production losses associated with infections and promoting overall performance in poultry farming. An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary nucleotide supplementation on the immune response of White Leghorn layers, with a specific focus on antibody titre against sheep red blood cells (sRBC) over a 40-week period. A total of 160 birds, aged 15 weeks, were randomly assigned to four dietary treatments (T1: basal diet for layer chicken phase I (BD), T2: BD + 0.5 g nucleotide/kg, T3: BD + 0.75 g nucleotide/kg, T4: BD + 1.0 g nucleotide/kg) in a completely randomized design, with five replicates per treatment and eight birds per replicate. Following a two-week adaptation period (15–16 weeks) for nucleotide supplementation, the birds were fed experimental layer diets from 17 to 40 weeks of age. The humoral immune response to sRBCs was assessed using the haemagglutination (HA) test. Blood was collected at 15 weeks of age from six birds in each treatment group to quantify the pre-inoculation titre value. A primary and booster dose of 25% sheep RBC suspension was administered at 17 weeks of age, followed by additional blood collections at three-week intervals from 18 to 40 weeks of age to estimate the humoral immune response. The results showed no significant differences in antibody titres during the early weeks (15–27 weeks of age). However, significant improvements in antibody titres were observed in T2, T3, and T4 groups at 36 and 40 weeks, with these groups exhibiting significantly higher titres (p<0.05) compared to the control group (T1). Dietary supplementation with nucleotides at 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0 g/kg of diet enhanced humoral immunity, as indicated by elevated antibody responses in later weeks. These findings underscore the importance of dietary nucleotide supplementation, to strengthen the immune system in layer birds. Enhanced antibody titres, particularly in later production phases, contribute to improved disease resistance and sustained productivity, emphasizing the value of nutritional interventions in optimizing health and performance in commercial layer production.

Modulatory Effects of Achyranthes aspera Extracts Pre-Treatment on Cyclophosphamide Induced Alterations in Lipid Profile Parameters in Albino Rats
Authors: Samdershi Deepshikha
Published: January 2025

Cyclophosphamide is one of the widely used chemotherapeutic drugs to treat various sorts of cancer and immune- related diseases. However, its use is restricted due to pro- oxidant activity that can damage healthy cells leading to altered metabolism. The liver becomes a susceptible target for xenobiotics toxicity due to its involvement in metabolic reactions. In the present study, an effort has been made to deduce the effects of pre- treatment with extracts of Achyranthes aspera on lipid metabolism in cyclophosphamide treated rats. 30 male albino rats were randomly divided into 6 groups, namely, group I (VC), group II (CYP), group III (AAML), group IV (AAMS), group V (AAML + CYP) and group VI (AAMS + CYP). Methanolic extracts of leaves and seeds of A. aspera were administered orally at the dose of 400 mg/kg body weight. A single dose of cyclophosphamide was injected intraperitoneally at the dose of 50 mg/kg body weight in rats of group II, V and VI on the 14th day of the experiment. The experiment was conducted for a duration of 16 days. Cyclophosphamide caused a significant elevation in serum level of TC, TG, LDL- C, VLDL- C and the atherogenic index, along with a decline in HDL- C. However, this effect was effectively countered by Achyranthes aspera extracts in pre- treatment groups (V & VI), showing its ameliorative effect against cyclophosphamide induced dyslipidemia and cardio- toxicity. % protection against cardiac risk was more in case of leaf extract pre- treatment. Treatment with extracts only did not show toxic alterations. Achyranthes aspera extracts potentially alleviated the cyclophosphamide- induced disturbances caused in lipid profile markers in albino rats. The anti- dyslipidemic property exhibited by the extracts can be possibly attributed to their phytochemical constituents responsible for anti- oxidative actions. Further pharmacological utilization of the plant warrants more scientific explorations.

Workload is a challenging factor that is often faced by organizations or companies in the process of achieving the desired targets. Workload is a challenge for companies because workload will have a major effect on employee performance. If the company cannot identify the workload on employees properly, it will cause uneven distribution of work. The phenomena that will often appear are overload which causes employees to experience physical and mental fatigue or the phenomenon of underload which causes employees to often have a lot of free time in working hours and results in inefficiency in work. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the workload using the Full Time Equivalent (FTE) method to determine how much workload is ideal for employees to receive. This workload analysis will be conducted in the Laboratory Department of PT X. In the Laboratory department there is an unequal distribution of work. The positions of Vice President Laboratory, Senior Manager Laboratory, and Strength Test Technician are overloaded. For positions that fit occurs in the position of Laboratory Supervisor and Consolidation Technician. For positions that are underloaded occur in the positions of Data Processing, Sample Handling, Compaction & CBR Technician, Index Properties Technician. The need for implementation and evaluation of the workload measurement and determination system to be useful for future recruitment planning.

These ads and digital campaigns are designed to influence voter preferences, sway undecided voters, and boost engagement, fundamentally transforming modern electoral campaigns. This paper aims to analyze practical aspects of political advertising that target voters and the effectiveness of the different ad types to elicit greater political participation. The current state of affairs is described within the context of the American presidential election of 2016, which was notable for its unconventional aspects. In particular, the paper illustrates how Trump’s campaign deployed strategically micro-targeted advertisements to specific demographics of American voters.
The research integrates the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM) which is a psychological theory of persuasion with the statistics of the voting and advertisement. The research as well points to some ethical problems, like risk for the voters being deceived, misuse of data, and the increase of the scope of political partisanship.
By examining both the benefits and drawbacks of targeted advertising, this paper contributes to the broader understanding of its role in democratic processes. From the findings, there is a problem of how the positive aspects of voter’s participation can be obtained without the chances of negative manipulation.

Perspektif Baru dalam Manajemen Nyeri: Pendekatan Multidisiplin
Authors: Raymond R Tjandrawinata
Published: January 2025

Nyeri merupakan pengalaman yang kompleks dan memiliki banyak sisi, tetap menjadi salah satu tantangan paling signifikan dalam dunia kedokteran. Karena sifatnya yang subjektif, terkait dengan dimensi fisik, emosional, dan psikologis, menjadikan nyeri sebagai kondisi yang relatif sulit untuk diobati secara efektif. Namun, kemajuan terkini dalam penelitian dan teknologi telah mengubah pemahaman kita tentang nyeri dan membuka jalan baru untuk penanganannya. Dari penemuan farmakologis hingga terapi psikologis yang inovatif, pendekatan multidisiplin membuka jalan bagi strategi yang lebih efektif, individual, dan holistik untuk meredakan nyeri. Salah satu perkembangan paling menarik dalam manajemen nyeri berasal dari penemuan inhibitor monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL). Para peneliti dari Weill Cornell Medicine dan Temple University telah menunjukkan bahwa inhibitor ini dapat memblokir sifat adiktif opioid dengan tetap mempertahankan kemampuan penghilang rasa sakitnya yang kuat. Dengan meningkatkan kadar endocannabinoid alami otak, 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG), inhibitor ini mengurangi pelepasan dopamine yang berperan dalam proses terjadinya adiksi. Mekanisme ini menawarkan alternatif yang menjanjikan untuk penatalaksanaan nyeri kronis tanpa risiko kecanduan yang menghancurkan, menandakan potensi pergeseran paradigma dalam farmakoterapi nyeri.

Rekayasa Penguraian Kepadatan Lalu Lintas pada Persimpangan (Studi Kasus: Jalan Abdullah Daeng Sirua dan Jalan Adyaksa Baru Makassar) (dibimbing oleh Yuada Rumengan dan Mursalim).
Persimpangan ialah bagian yang sangat krusial dari jalan raya sebab sebagian besar efisiensi, keamanan, kecepatan, biaya operasional serta kapasitas lalu lintas tergantung di perencanaan persimpangan. Adanya perencanaan persimpangan yang baik menghasilkan lalu lintas yang lancar.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk  mengetahui panjang antrian pada persimpangan Jalan Abdullah Daeng Sirua dan Jalan Adyaksa Baru Makassar dan untuk mengurai panjang antrian pada persimpangan Jalan Abdullah Daeng Sirua dan Jalan Adyaksa Baru Makassar.
Penelitian ini memodelkan 11 alternatif perencanaan dengan   mengubah ubah waktu siklus  lalu lintas (APILL) . Software yang digunakan untuk membantu penelitian adalah PTV Vissim 2022 dan Measure Distance untuk membantu mengukur panjang antrian yang terjadi.
Hasil penelitian dari 11 pemodelan alternatif  tersebut , menunjukkan bahwa  model  awal perencanaan yang ada di lapangan dengan waktu siklus 90 detik   memiliki panjang antrian pada Jalan Abdullah Daeng Sirua (Utara) sepanjang 152m, Jalan Abdullah Daeng Sirua (Selatan) sepanjang 95m, dan jalan Adyaksa Baru (Timur) sepanjang 119m. Setelah melakukan banyak percobaan maka disimpulkan alternatif yang diambil adalah alternatif 3 dengan waktu siklus 60 detik  serta memiliki panjang antrian  pada Jalan Abdullah Daeng Sirua (Utara) sepanjang 152m, Jalan Abdullah Daeng Sirua (Selatan) sepanjang 82m, dan Jalan Adyaksa Baru (Timur) sepanjang 84m.

Produksi beton merupakan salah satu pekerjaan utama pada proyek konstruksi seperti bendungan. Untuk memastikan bahwa beton yang dihasilkan tepat waktu, biaya dan mutu, maka dibutuhkan sebuah sistem untuk mengatur ketersediaan material yang akan digunakan. Supply chain management (manajemen rantai pasok) adalah integrasi aktivitas pengadaan bahan dan pelayanan, pengubahan menjadi barang setengah jadi dan produk akhir, serta pengiriman hingga tiba ke tangan konsumen. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh supply chain management terhadap produksi beton. Metode analisis data yang digunakan untuk menganalisis hasil dari penyebaran kuisioner adalah analisis regresi linier berganda dengan 3 variabel bebas yang menyatakan supply chain management yaitu aliran material, aliran informasi dan aliran finansial serta variabel terikat yaitu produksi beton. Dari hasil penelitian yang telah dilakukan, terdapat pengaruh positif dari suppy chain management terhadap produksi beton sebesar 71,2% Variabel yang memengaruhi produksi beton secara dominan adalah aliran finansial yang memiliki nilai koefisien sebesar 0,970 dengan poin “Penetapan harga dan kesepakatan pembayaran selalu dilakukan dan disetujui oleh kedua belah pihak” menempati peringkat pertama pada mean 4,325.

Kepemimpinan merupakan salah satu aspek penting dalam pengendalian proyek. Biaya mutu dan waktu dapat dikendalikan dengan serangkaian prosedur yang dilaksanakan oleh personil proyek terhadap sumber daya proyek. Tenaga kerja adalah salah satu sumber daya terpenting dalam proyek. Penelitian mempelajari lebih lanjut teori kepemimpinan Hershey – Blanchard sebagai acuan dalam interaksi antara pemimpin dalam hal ini staff atau manajer proyek dengan individu – individu yang dipimpinnya dalam hal ini tenaga kerja (tukang) dan pengaruhnya terhadap ketepatan waktu pelaksanaan proyek di Kota Makassar. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode kuantitatif dengan uji Hipotesis Wilcoxon dan Uji Korelasi Spearman. Hasil yang diperoleh dari uji hipotesis yaitu terdapat perbedaan antara kelompok yang kurang percaya diri  (Kelompok1) dan kelompok kurang berkompeten tetapi percaya diri (Kelompok 2)  serta antara kelompok berkompeten namun tidak termotivasi (Kelompok3) dan kelompok sangat berkompeten terhadap keterlambatan proyek (Kelompok4) terhadap keterlambatan proyek gedung di Kota Makassar. Hasil uji hipotesis juga menunjukkan tidak  ada perbedaan antara  kelompok  kurang  berkompeten namun percaya diri (Kelompok 2) dan kelompok berkompeten namun tidak termotivasi (Kelompok 3) terhadap keterlambatan proyek.  Uji korelasi menunjukkan koefisien korelasi  untuk kelompok  1,  2, 3, 4 terhadap keterlambatan proyek berturut – turut adalah 0.20922, 0.13075, -0.34738, -0.13911 yang artinya bila Kelompok 1 dan 2 diberikan pendekatan profesional maka hal tersebut mungkin akan menjadi salah satu penyebab keterlambatan proyek Gedung di Kota Makassar dan bila Kelompok 3 dan 4 diberikan pendekatan professional maka tidak menjadi salah satu penyebab terjadinya keterlambatan proyek di Kota Makassar.

This study uses secondary data and qualitative descriptive methodologies to investigate how government policies affect the growth and empowerment of MSMEs in Purwakarta Regency. The study's findings demonstrate that although the government has aided the MSME sector, obstacles such low productivity, lack of product certification, administrative restrictions, and access to technology and skills continue to impede the expansion of MSMEs in Purwakarta Regency. This suggests that more efficient policies are required to boost MSMEs' share of the regional and national GDP.
