Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan peran Badan Narkotika Nasional (BNN) dan ASEAN Senior Officials on Drugs Matters (ASOD) dalam menangani kejahatan narkoba di Indonesia Tahun 2018-2021 dan bagaimana implementasi dari kerjasama BNN dengan ASOD tersebut diharapkan dapat menyelesaikan permasalahan narkoba di Indonesia. Mengingat kompleksnya bentuk kejahatan narkoba yang merupakan kejahatan transnasional tersebut yang melibatkan aktor-aktor baru, sehingga BNN dalam menangani kejahatan narkoba di Indonesia membentuk kerjasama dengan ASOD untuk dapat menangani kejahatan narkoba di Indonesia. ASOD merupakan rezim internasional di kawasan Asia Tenggara yang khusus menangani permasalahan kejahatan narkoba di kawasan. Kejahatan narkoba merupakan salah satu bentuk dari banyaknya kejahatan transnasional yang kini mengancam keamanan nasional Indonesia. UNODC telah mencatat bahwa Indonesia telah masuk dalam jajaran segitiga emas yang mana perdagangan narkoba bersama dengan Jepang, Australia, Selandia Baru dan Malaysia. Fakta lain yang lebih mengkhawatirkan adalah bahwa Indonesia menempati posisi ketiga di dunia dalam hal penyalahgunaan narkoba, di bawah Meksiko dan Columbia. Sedangkan di tingkat ASEAN, Indonesia menjadi negara dengan tingkat transaksi narkoba tertinggi. Ini menunjukkan bahwa Indonesia berada dalam kondisi darurat narkoba. Digunakan metode penelitian deskriptif kualitatif, penulis mencoba menjelaskan peran BNN dan ASOD dalam menangani kejahatan narkoba di Indonesia Tahun 2018-2021 dengan konsep Transnational Organized Crime (TOC) untuk menganalisis permasalahan narkoba di Indonesia dan konsep kerjasama regional untuk menganalisis upaya BNN dengan ASOD dalam memberantas narkoba di Indonesia.

Published: February 2024

This research aims to explain the relationship of bilateral trade cooperation between Indonesia and China in coal commodities, the influencing factors and the opportunities and defiances of Indonesia in trade cooperation of coal energy with China during the period of President Joko Widodo’s administration in 2014-2021. Indonesia and China are two countries that have very close relations in the energy sector, as seen from a lot of policies and cooperation agreed upon by the two countries. However, the existing social, economic and political dynamics also affect the cooperation between the two countries. Seeing these dynamics, this research tries to answer the reason why Indonesia and China did the coal trade cooperation, how was the bilateral cooperation between the two countries and what is Indonesia’s opportunity and defiance of coal bilateral trade cooperation with China. This research uses the Heckscher-Ohlin international trade theory, international cooperation and new trade strategy concepts to answer the questions. The data collection technique used in this research is a secondary data collection technique with a  literature review method. From the analysis, the coal bilateral trade cooperation between Indonesia-China does not escape from their national interest which is over production of coal in Indonesia and the lack of domestic coal energy resources in China. So the author concludes that domestic and global factors, big opportunities and defiances play a very important role in relation to coal bilateral trade cooperation between Indonesia and China.

Published: February 2024

Abstract

Background Seizures in meningiomas occur in approximately 30% of patients. Meningiomas that press on the cortical area, as well as larger meningiomas have a greater tendency to cause focal or generalized seizures. The risk of seizures is increased in tumors that grow along the surface of the brain compared to the base of the calvaria because these tumors are more often located in areas where they can compress cortical tissue that is susceptible to epileptogenesis. The study also aimed to discuss the predictors of seizure/epilepsy in post-operative patients.

Methods We searched PubMed gateway database and searched the studies published between the years 2020 and 2023. The following keywords were used to search for the specific article, single and/or in combination: meningioma, seizure, epilepsy, primary brain tumor, craniotomy, predictor, and surgery. the inclusion criteria for the studies were published in English and with “human” specified as the study category. We excluded review articles, expert opinions, and other language articles.

Results We included 10 studies we found that most seizures in meningioma post-operative patients are male gender, size > 8 cm, cortical location, peritumoral edema, and history of previous seizures. The occurrence of early in-hospital seizures was associated with motor cortex involvement, postoperative Karnofsky performance score <70, postoperative complications, and preoperative seizures

Conclusion This systematic review shows are several predictors that can used to predict the seizure/epilepsy outcome in patients who underwent surgery for meningioma

Keywords: meningioma, post-operative, seizure, epilepsy, predictors

Cartografia audiovisual da produção artística e estética de jovens nos cotidianos de uma escola pública
Authors: Almeida Edivan Carneiro de , Victorio Filho Aldo
Published: February 2024

Os cotidianos de escolas públicas são compostos por uma inapreensível e rebelde multiplicidade de práticas, experiências e modos de existência, realizados-criados no intenso encontro coletivo dos corpos de estudantes, professores e demais sujeitos que habitam esses cotidianos e, ininterruptamente, engendram suas práticas e desenvolvem táticas de resistência e desvios (CERTEAU, 2012) frente às forças políticas hegemônicas e suas estratégias de determinação da organização, da instituição dos currículos e da formação de corpos, em consonância com os interesses de uma sociedade capitalista, produtivista, consumista etc.. Partindo deste entendimento, neste trabalho apresentamos parte de uma pesquisa de doutorado (UERJ/CAPES) na qual estamos produzindo uma cartografia (DELEUZE; GUATARRI, 1995) audiovisual com um grupo de estudantes-interlocutores envolvidos nas oficinas de criação artística (poemas, músicas, filmes, telas, álbuns fotográficos etc.) ao longo do ensino médio em uma escola pública na Bahia. Na composição desta cartografia os estudantes foram convidados a produzir vídeos sobre suas experiências nas oficinas de criação artística e sua consequente participação nos saraus, festivais e exposições, em que suas criações são apresentadas para a comunidade escolar e externa. No processo de criação dos vídeos, em andamento, os estudantes foram convidados a perambular por um acervo de imagens (fotografias e vídeos), sons e textos produzidos na escola para e sobre esses eventos e disponibilizados em um site (https://www.criarteceaco.pictures/) criado durante a pesquisa. A partir dos vídeos dos estudantes, buscamos compreender o imaginário e os diversos sentidos que eles produzem sobre as experiências de criação artística e estética vividas na escola, sobre os pensamentos, sentimentos e influências que elas provocaram em suas vidas, sobre como elas afetam a formação de seus corpos/subjetividades, sobre como os estudantes se veem a partir dessas experiências e como visualizam a escola com elas e sem elas, quais significados lhes atribuem e como as consideram no conjunto das experiências formativas que a escola lhes proporciona, bem como essas experiências contribuem para a singularização dos cotidianos e do currículo da escola. A partir dos primeiros encontros com os estudantes-interlocutores, como também do meu envolvimento na realização das oficinas de criação artística ao longo de uma década, enquanto professor, percebemos que essas experiências, realizadas fora dos espaçostempos e obrigações disciplinares, constituem uma produção estética (HERMANN, 2010) que atravessa as fronteiras da escola e, provavelmente, afeta os estudantes na “criação de si” e da escola como obra de arte (DIAS, 2011) e constituem experiências marcadas por momentos de alegria, festa, fruição e gozo coletivo.
BIOALFABETIZAÇÃO E PRÁTICAS DOCENTES NO ENSINO MÉDIO

Published: February 2024

Na atual conjuntura globalizada, marcada pelos avanços
científicos e tecnológicos, faz-se necessário realizar uma
análise da realidade educacional. Mais especificamente neste
cenário, destacamos a disciplina Biologia como essencial para
a compreensão do mundo contemporâneo, caracterizada
enquanto ciência que se preocupa com os diversos aspectos
da vida no planeta e com a formação de uma visão do homem
sobre si próprio e de seu papel no mundo. Esta postura exige
docentes preparados para desenvolver e contextualizar temas
pertinentes em sala de aula, por meio de uma formação que
proporcione um ensino voltado não apenas ao acúmulo e
reprodução de saberes, mas à aquisição de competências
e conhecimentos que permitam ao aluno condições para
compreender as informações, refletir sobre o seu cotidiano e
nele agir com autonomia, valendo-se dos conhecimentos da
ciência, da tecnologia e do mundo vivo.
Esta pesquisa tem como objeto de estudo a bioalfabetização
no Ensino Médio e as interfaces com a prática docente de
professores de Biologia, em que se torna relevante desenvolver
uma reflexão sistemática a respeito desse processo, em
consonância com a prática do professor, pois o ensino da
Biologia tem sido marcado, em regra, pela dificuldade de
compreensão de alguns de seus termos por parte dos discentes,
os quais, em grande número, limitam-se à compreensão e
memorização de termos técnicos, em detrimento da construção
de uma visão ordenada e integrada dessa ciência.
Enhancing students’ performance on least taught topics in basic calculus through Moodle-based courseware package
Authors: Evardo Jr Orville Jardinico , Itaas Estela Corro
Published: February 2024

This study utilized the developmental research design to identify the least taught topics in basic calculus and design and investigate the effectiveness of a Moodle-based courseware package. Data were collected from seven basic calculus teachers and five academic administrators through survey questionnaires, interviews, and validation sheets. The quasi-experimental phase of the study used a pre-/post-test control group design with a sample of 69 students, 34 students in the experimental group and 35 students in the control group. The experimental group received instruction using an asynchronous Moodle-based courseware package, while the control group received instruction through lecture notes. Results showed that the least taught topics include infinite limits, limits at infinity, and limits of trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions. These topics were least taught due to time constraints, students’ capacity, scheduling, complexity, and relatability. Validation of the courseware package showed a very high validity. It was found that the use of Moodle-based courseware package and lecture notes effectively increased the students’ performance. However, one-way analysis of covariance results showed that the experimental group gained considerably greater than those in the control group. It was recommended that teachers continue to update their knowledge of different teaching methodologies to develop an encouraging and dynamic learning environment.

Authors: J. Kallo 0. , A. Zaidan H. , K. Delaimi A.
Published: February 2024

This study was carried on 50 calves with septic arthritis. Synovial effusion was obtained by arthrocentesis from the joints of these calves and examined bacteriogically to determine the antibiotic sensitivity patterns of the isolates to 14 antibacterial agents. The results showed that the incidence of septic arthritis was higher in male calves (74%) than in females (26%). The higher incidence was found in calves under two months of age. The most frequent bacterial isolates were Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp., Proteus mirablis, Corynebacterium pyogenes, beta-haemolytic Streptococcus spp., Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. 

It was shown that most of gram positive isolates were susceptible to ampicillin, cloxacillin, erythromycine, fucidin, garamycin and pencillin. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was the most resistant microorganism to all antibiotics used except amikac in and garamyc in.

Background: For the effective management of type 1 diabetes, patients are called upon to adopt changes in lifestyle, diet, and exercise. However, it appears that living with diabetes often disrupts their quality of life. Methods: The study involved recording reports from pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes aged 5-18 years, as well as their parents, to assess the quality of life of the affected individuals. The questionnaire used was the PedsQL Diabetes Module Version 3.0, which evaluates: the symptoms of type 1 diabetes, treatment-related issues, concerns about the disease, and communication. Results: The study sample consisted of 102 patients with type 1 diabetes. The collected data revealed that living with the disease affects the quality of life. Some indicative examples of this would be how high levels of HbA1c and episodes of hypoglycemia or diabetic ketoacidosis, can complicate the lives of patients who suffer from type 1 diabetes. Additionally, the quality of life depends on various demographic factors, such as father's educational level, presence of siblings in the family, place of residence, and age of the patients. Conclusions: Although this study has some limitations, it is evident that living with type 1 diabetes complicates daily life. Therefore, it is important to design strategies to help patients and their families better manage the disease, ensuring they receive the required psychological support for optimal disease management.

Background: The microbial population of wound isolates remains a public health concern because of its role in spread of infections. The microorganisms present in wound swab of patients have been reviewed in order to ascertain the presence of emerging and re -emerging pathogens in hospital environment. These microorganisms are generated from nosocomial and opportunistic origin as well as immune compromised individuals. The purpose of this study is to determine the occurrence of microorganisms in wounds of patient’s attending clinic in National Orthopedic Hospital Enugu, Nigeria. Methodology: A cross sectional study of 230 wound patients was selected using convenient sampling technique. Conventional methods and 16SrRNA sequencing was used for characterization of some organisms that could not be identified in the conventional methods. Questionnaire structured from literature review was also deployed for demographic studies obtained from consented participants. Results The frequency distribution of wound isolates showed an increase in Pseudomonas aeruginosa 7(10%) and Klebsiella pneumonia 6(8.6%) respectively. Mixed growths had a notable increase of 42(18.3%),while culture with no bacteria growth had 37(16.1%). Staphylococcus aureus was prevalent with 32(13.9%), Staphylococcus epidermis 15(6.5%) and the least isolates had 1(1.4%), Male gender had the highest wound isolates of one hundred and fourty one (141) with meanSD 21.11 and median of 19.00 while the female had 88 with meanSD 20.3113.457, median of 16.50. The socio demographic data findings for participant’s age were higher in the range of 21-40yrs (94) and 41-60yr (74) while the least was >80 years (5). The mean age of the 230 participantswas 43.15±17.284yrs.Wound type had a notable increase in accident cases (63)27.4%, surgical cases (44)19.1% and lowest was laceration cases (2) 0.9%, The most prevalent population of wound cases according to occupational status was observed in artisans (148) 64.3%, students (33)14.3%, civil servants (29)12.6%, least population was the retired (20)8.7%. The portion of wound site was highest in the leg region (174), trunk (22) and the hand (12). Conclusion: it is advocated that proper measures such as adequate sanitation, personal hygiene, sterilization of hospital equipment and environment should be beefed up to prevent the spread of these microbes to the public.

Aims: The main objective of this observational study is to develop a linear regression model that incorporates age, menopausal status, and family history to predict the risk and severity of ovarian cancer. Methods: In early 2023, the King Hussein Medical Centre's gynaecological clinic began using PET/CT scanning and histopathological analysis to identify ovarian cancer cases. The data was then used to strategize interventions for each patient. The study aimed to assess the probability of ovarian cancer in female patients by analysing their age, menopausal onset, and family history. Patients were classified as pre-menopausal or post-menopausal, and PET/CT scan results were converted into FIGO classifications. Histopathological findings were analysed using ROC and binary logistic regression analyses. The study also used multiple linear regression to determine correlations and variations in the estimated Federation of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (FIGO) grade for females with suspected ovarian cancer. The research developed a pragmatic model to forecast ovarian cancer likelihood and severity levels. Results: The study examined 105 patients with suspected ovarian cancer at King Hussein Medical Centre between 2021 and mid-2023. Only 97 patients (92.38%) had matched FIGO-derived PET/CT scans with biopsy-based histopathological positivity. The optimal FIGO grade was 3.5, with a sensitivity of 77.2%, a specificity of 76.92%, a positive predictive value of 95.95%, a negative predictive value of 32.26%, an accuracy index of 77.14%, and a Youden index of 54.10%. Conclusion: A regression-based model was developed to triage the risk of ovarian cancer. This model enables us to early prioritise suspected females who should undergo PET/CT at the clinic level, with a high positive predictive value of over 90%.

Pisang Cavendish merupakan salah satu komoditas buah tropis yang sangat terkenal di dunia. Pisang Cavendish lebih dikenal dengan sebutan pisang ambon putih di Indonesia. Dalam perbanyakan tanaman pisang biasanya menghasilkan anakan yang sedikit dan memerlukan waktu yang relatif lama. Solusi untuk mendapatkan persediaan bibit dalam jumlah banyak yaitu dengan cara kultur jaringan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh pemberian NAA dan kinetin terhadap pembentukan eksplan pisang Cavendish secara in vitro dan untuk mengetahui konsentrasi dari kombinasi NAA dan kinetin yang tepat terhadap pertumbuhan eksplan pisang Cavendish secara in vitro. Penelitian ini diselesaikan di Laboratorium kultur jaringan Taman Anggrek, Dinas Ketahanan Pangan dan Pertanian, Kota Surabaya. Eksplorasi ini dilakukan pada bulan Oktober sampai dengan Desember 2023. Penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak lengkap Faktorial dengan 2 faktor perlakuan. Konsentrasi NAA (tiga taraf yaitu 0, 1, dan 2 ppm) menjadi faktor pertama. Elemen selanjutnya adalah konsentrasi Kinetin (3 taraf, yaitu 0, 3 dan 6 ppm) yang diulang sebanyak 3 kali. Tiap unit percobaan terdiri dari 5 botol, sehingga total keseluruhan 135 botol, tiap botol diisi 1 eksplan. Satu eksplan ditempatkan pada setiap wadah. Data yang diperoleh dari penelitian ini dianalisis menggunakan analisis ragam (ANOVA) dengan uji beda rata-rata Duncan (DMRT) pada taraf uji 5%. Dari hasil penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa: 1) Pemberian konsentrasi NAA sebesar 2 ppm secara mendasar mempengaruhi perkembangan jumlah akar dan konvergensi NAA sebesar 1 ppm berpengaruh nyata terhadap pertumbuhan panjang akar. Pemberian konsentrasi Kinetin sebesar 3 ppm berpengaruh nyata terhadap perkembangan tinggi tanaman, panjang akar dan jumlah daun. 2) kombinasi konsentrasi antara NAA dan kinetin tidak memberikan pengaruh yang nyata terhadap pertumbuhan eksplan pisang Cavendish. Kombinasi zat pengatur tumbuh terbaik yang dapat mendorong pertumbuhan panjang akar adalah dengan memberikan konsentrasi N1K1 (1 ppm NAA + 3 ppm kinetin).

Filosofia della vulnerabilità, affetti e migrazioni
Authors: Casalini Brunella
Published: February 2024

In this article, I first dwell on the general features assumed by the philosophical discussion on the topic of vulnerability, especially in the sphere of moral philosophy and political philosophy; then I mention Judith Butler's contribution. Once Butler's reflection has been illustrated, I try to show how the theoretical framework she offers can help us read the Western world's response to the migration phenomena, as well as the forms of vulnerabilization experienced by the protection-seeker; in particular, by way of exemplification, I dwell here on their epistemic vulnerabilization. Lastly, again through the Butlerian theoretical framework, I show how vulnerability can be played out as a form of resistance, either in the form of micro-resistance or in the form of collective resistance.
La nozione giuridica di vulnerabilità in un’ottica di genere e intersezionale
Authors: Giammarinaro Maria Grazia , Palumbo Letizia
Published: February 2024

This chapter critically looks at the legal notion of vulnerability to exploitation, examining relevant international instruments, as well as European and Italian legislation and case law of the European Court of Human Rights. We focus on the ‘situational’ dimension of vulnerability drawing from a gender and intersectional perspective. By questioning the use of vulnerability as a selective tool, we argue that vulnerability is potentially a powerful notion to address situations such as the exploitation of migrant workers. Such potential is correctly developed when the concept of vulnerability is used to grasp the intersections of personal and structural factors contributing to the making of migrants’ life experiences.
Quale vulnerabilità? Il punto di vista di persone in migrazione
Authors: Marchetti Sabrina
Published: February 2024

This chapter discusses migrants’ views on how the concept of ‘vulnerability’ is conceived in institutional settings, in policies and norms that adopt this perspective. This critique is based on observations regarding the tensions of daily life in reception centres, the difficult relationship with other migrants, with reception workers, and in particular the contrasts with authorities, their practices and decisions. The lack of an adequate shared notion of vulnerability capable of encompassing the totality of its possible applications strongly hampers the integration and reception process. The chapter compares migrants’ views from Italy, Germany, Norway, Belgium, Canada, Uganda and Lebanon where the Horizon 2020 project VULNER was conducted.

ALEKSANDR ÇATSKİY ODAĞINDA RUS EDEBİYATINDA ‘GEREKSİZ İNSAN’ TARTIŞMASI
Authors: AYDIN Onur
Published: February 2024

Rus edebiyatında gereksiz insan imgesini temsil eden ilk kahramana dair farklı görüşler bulunmaktadır. Gerçekleştirilen alan yazını taramasında Aleksandr Griboyedov’un Akıldan Bela oyununun ana kahramanlarından Çatskiy ya da Aleksandr Puşkin’in Yevgeniy Onegin adlı şiirsel romanının ana kahramanlarından Onegin isimleri öne çıkmaktadır. Bir diğer fikir birliği olmayan konu da Çatskiy’in gereksiz insan olup olmadığıdır. Çalışmamız kapsamında Rus edebiyatında ilk gereksiz insan imgesinin kim olduğuna ve Çatskiy’in bu kapsamda değerlendirilip değerlendirilemeyeceği sorularına yanıt aranmıştır. Çalışmada tümdengelim, karşılaştırmalı analiz ve imge merkezli çözümleme yöntemlerine başvurulmuştur. Araştırma materyallerini Akıldan Bela ve Yevgeniy Onegin eserlerinin yanı sıra gereksiz insan imgesi üzerine yapılan araştırmalar oluşturmuştur. İncelemede gereksiz insanın genel karakteristik özellikleri saptanmış ve bunlar Çatskiy’e uyarlanmıştır. Bunun sonucunda Çatskiy’in gereksiz insan özelliklerini genel olarak taşımadığı görülmüştür. Kahramanın neden gereksiz insan sayılması ya da sayılmaması gerektiğine dair çıkarımlar ortaya konmuştur. Çatskiy için gereksiz insan yerine zamansız insan nitelendirmesinin daha uygun olabileceği sonucuna varılmıştır.
Anastomosis coloanal en dos etapas mediante técnica de Turnbull-Cutait pull-through en un caso de fístula recto vaginal alta secundaria a trauma colorrectal

Introducción. La fuga anastomótica es la complicación más temida en las anastomosis colorrectales, especialmente en pacientes con cáncer de recto bajo. Descrita desde hace más de cincuenta años, la técnica de anastomosis coloanal manual diferida después de una resección anterior ultrabaja se realiza en dos tiempos para preservar la función de los esfínteres. Este procedimiento puede reducir las complicaciones asociadas a la filtración anastomótica y la necesidad de derivación intestinal de protección. Aunque se ha utilizado principalmente en casos de cáncer colorrectal, también se ha descrito en enfermedades congénitas, malformaciones anorrectales y fístulas rectovaginales complejas, así como una técnica para salvamento de anastomosis colorrectales ultrabajas en el evento de una dehiscencia.
Caso clínico. Mujer de 30 años con antecedente de cirugías por traumatismo colorrectal, que necesitó una colostomía terminal, y posteriormente hizo una obstrucción intestinal y fue atendida en el contexto de una fístula recto-vaginal postraumática.
Resultados. Se llevó a una resección anterior de recto, histerectomía y colpectomía parcial, con anastomosis coloanal en un segundo tiempo, utilizando la técnica pull-through. Tuvo una adecuada recuperación postoperatoria, sin necesidad de derivacion intestinal.
Conclusión. La anastomosis coloanal en dos etapas según Turnbull-Cutait, se mantiene como una opción a considerar en el cáncer de recto medio-bajo. Aunque se ha estudiado principalmente en casos de malignidad, se ha observado una reducción significativa en la fuga anastomótica y en la necesidad de un estoma derivativo, por lo que se ha extendido su uso también a condiciones benignas.

Los tumores malignos de la vaina del nervio periférico (TMVNP) son sarcomas de tejidos blandos (STB) agresivos y de mal pronóstico. Su origen exacto es desconocido, no obstante, su ubicación cerca de las raíces nerviosas principales de las extremidades y la pelvis hace suponer un origen neural1. Los TMVNP corresponden al 10 % de los STB, el 50 % son esporádicos y el otro 50 % ocurren en pacientes con neurofibromatosis tipo 1 (NF1), condición que confiere un riesgo 30 veces mayor de desarrollar la enfermedad comparado con la población general2. Su incidencia es similar en ambos sexos y la edad de presentación oscila entre los 20 y 50 años3. Son síntomas frecuentes el dolor y el déficit neurológico4. La cirugía oncológica y la radioterapia adyuvante son el estándar de manejo en pacientes con tumores resecables1. La supervivencia global a 5 años es de sólo 25 %5.

The Unitomo Employee and Lecturer Business unit in the city of Surabaya, Indonesia, has several problems arising from the implementation of a manual system in the form of a paper-based system, which has the potential risks, such as 1) Damage and Risk of data loss, 2) Ineffectiveness in making reports; 3) Increased risk of human error caused by transaction volume, lack of management, and non-integration data; 4) Limited user accesses to the ledger, Time-consuming processes, and no collaboration. This research aims to overcome this problem by developing an inventory recording system using an Agile approach with the Scrum framework, PHP with the Slim 3 framework, MySQL, black box testing, and adding revenue and sales features as a difference from previous research. The research results show that the system developed was successful in helping Unitomo Business unit employees and lecturers overcome their problems, especially in monitoring the amount of inventory stock. The proposed system has features for recording incoming and outgoing goods transactions and sales and income reports. The use of the Agile Scrum method in software development helps teams in project planning and monitoring progress throughout the design process.
