Review-Meningkatkan Daya Saing Pabrik Gula di Indonesia
Authors: Fahrudin M. Fikri
Published: February 2019

Pembangunan industri berbasis tebu di Indonesia yang lebih bermakna ternyata belum terwujud hingga kini karena ketidakmampuan mengatasi aneka masalah yang sifatnya mendasar, seperti tingginya biaya operasional, rendahnya rendemen, kinerja mesin yang tidak maksimal, impor gula yang tidak sesuai dengan kebutuhan dalam negeri sehingga menjadi berlebih di pasar, dan lain-lain. Pengembangan industri berbasis tebu di Indonesia untuk menuju swasembada gula dan beyond sugar ternyata masih dibayangi potensi timbulnya konflik internal antar pabrik gula dan ketidakharmonisan antara petani tebu dengan pihak petugas pabrik gula sehingga menambah angka kehilangan bahan baku tebu setiap tahun dan berpengaruh pada pasokan tebu ke dalam pabrik gula. Sikap pemerintah yang lebih memanjakan sebelas pabrik gula rafinasi sangat merugikan pabrik gula di dalam negeri dan petani kebun karena pasar domestik mengalami kebanjiran gula. Pabrik-pabrik gula BUMN harus terus direvitalisasi guna meningkatkan rendemen dan produksi gula, termasuk pembenahan lahan perkebunan tebu melalui mekanisasi dengan didukung teknik penanaman, pemeliharaan, dan penanganan panen yang lebih efektif dan lebih efisien. Manajemen mekanisasi pertanaman tebu yang tepat akan membuat penggunaan alat mekanisasi menjadi efektif dan efisien.

ABSTRACTThe 1930s was the heyday of the Indonesian sugar industry that is capable of exporting to many countries and has become the country an exporter of sugar to two after Cuba, but the situation is reversed since 1967 in which Indonesia would import sugar from Brazil, India, and Thailand in order to meet the needs raw material consumption and food and beverage industry. The results showed that the cost of sugar production is very uneconomical because of inefficiency that stretches from the cultivation to processing in the factory so difficult to obtain profit margins. Target and beyond sugar self-sufficiency can not be achieved because highly regulated, there is no synergy and tends to conflicts of interests among ministries or agencies, and internal conflicts often occur between the sugar mill and the disharmony between sugarcane farmers by the sugar mill officials.In the competition of the sugar industry are more stringent, in the era of the Asean Economic Community, it means the level of efficiency of sugar factories in the country need special attention, the same thing also applies to industrial users of sugar, and sugar as a raw material components contribute to the creation of products food and beverage efficient so as to compete with similar products from other countries. Observing how the intense competition in the Asean Economic Community is based on free trade, the yield of sugar that’s a cost efficient production is very important and urgent at this time, including work to improve the welfare of farmers.

A associação de fiéis como chave hermenêutica da sinodalidade
Authors: Geraldo Denilson
Published: February 2019

No sistema canônico o direito de associar-se deriva do Batismo e, através dele, a pessoa é reconhecida juridicamente. A história do apostolado associado se encontra na base da própria Igreja, uma vez que o Concílio Vaticano II e o Código de Direito Canônico o reconheceram como um direito dos fiéis, destacando a sua necessidade enquanto canal de diálogo com a cultura contemporânea. O conceito de sinodalidade é apresentado na perspectiva associativa para demonstrar que as associações possuem, por sua própria natureza, uma estrutura sinodal e com a capacidade de responder adequadamente às exigências teológicas, eclesiológicas e culturais.

The Sermon from the Mount: The Messages in the Canadian Opera Company’s Remount of the Riel Opera
Authors: Teillet Jean
Published: February 2019

The Canadian Opera Company chose Canada’s centennial to commission and mount a new Canadian opera – Louis Riel. It chose to remount the opera fifty years later for Canada’s sesquicentennial. This article explores this curious choice by discussing three themes: (1) the tension that results from using the highly stylized Western medium of opera to tell the story of an Indigenous leader, Louis Riel; (2) the opera’s plot, which justifies the state execution and, in so doing, exonerates Canada; and (3) the message conveyed by the choice to mount an opera with such a plot in order to celebrate Canada’s centennial and sesquicentennial.
Can Opera Listen? Canada’s (Sesqui) Centennial Opera, Louis Riel
Authors: Koval Sarah , Dubois Taryn
Published: February 2019

Engaging with recent work on Métis history, this article situates Harry Somers’s Louis Riel (1967) within a framework of changing public perceptions about Riel, the historic Métis leader. We cast the opera as a sonic technology through which Riel is reanimated and ventriloquized in displays of Canadian nationalism. Our argument draws on interviews with musicologists, historians, and members of the cast and crew from our podcast, Riel Opera Talk. We scrutinize the extent to which the Canadian Opera Company’s new production of Louis Riel (2017) enacted cultural attentiveness both on stage and, crucially, through its music. Turning to literature on the ethics of listening, we propose that the score itself can listen to its changing cultural context and articulate an attentive response. Challenging the colonizing impact of the opera, we conclude, necessitates a willingness to dismantle the very score in which it is written.
“Decolonizing” Riel
Authors: Simonot-Maiello Colette
Published: February 2019

Harry Somers and Mavor Moore’s opera Louis Riel embodies inherently conflicting messages. While the opera was intended to celebrate nation building and suggest a new, postcolonial Canadian nationalism in 1967, it also conveys a distrust of its own nationalizing message. Setting the opera in the broader context of works created about Louis Riel (whether historical, literary, socio-political, or musical) makes clear that it participates in a mythmaking enterprise surrounding the Métis leader. This process aims to present Riel as the quintessential Canadian hero. However, because this paradigm suggests a collapsing of Canadian-ness and Indigeneity, it is at odds with calls for decolonization and Indigenization. Examining more recent musical works about Louis Riel by Andrew Balfour and Karen Sunabacka highlights some of the limitations of the nationalizing discourse around the opera and provides alternative musical representations of Riel that foreground his Indigeneity and, specifically, his Métis identity.
Perancangan Boiler untuk Proses Sterilisasi pada Baglog Jamur Tiram
Authors: Akbar Ronald
Published: February 2019

The production process is the core of an industry that certainly relies on a variety of equipment to help the process run. Oyster mushroom baglog industry is one of the agricultural industries that needs to be developed in its production equipment because of its good market prospects and high economic potential with a clear market segment. But there is a problem that often faced by the baglog farmers, the problem is the sterilization process from baglog itself is not good, so the quality of the oyster mushroom will decrease or worse is the crop failure. Therefore an appropriate boiler is needed that it can increase the yield and quality of a baglog oyster mushroom industry. Boilers that are designed will follow the existing standards, which are in accordance with the ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC) standards and coupled with simulations in the form of adding loads to the boiler model using Pro Engineer Wildfire 4.0 software.
Single-approach vertebral osteosynthesis in the treatment of spinal osteolysis by spondylodiscitis
Authors: Rustemi Oriela , Raneri Fabio , Alvaro Lorenzo , Gazzola Luca , Beggio Giacomo , Rossetto Ludovico , Cervellini Patrizio
Published: February 2019

OBJECTIVE

Both spontaneous and iatrogenic spondylodiscitis are becoming ever more frequent, yet there are no definite treatment guidelines. For many years the treatment protocol was conservative medical management or surgical debridement with patients immobilized or bedridden for weeks and often resulting in spinal deformity. The eventual development of spinal deformity can be difficult to treat. Over the last few years, the authors have preferred a single-approach instrumented arthrodesis when spondylolysis that evolves in deformity from somatic wedging occurs.

METHODS

The authors retrospectively reviewed the clinical, radiological, and surgical records of 11 patients treated over the past 3 years for spondylodiscitis with osteosynthesis.

RESULTS

Overall, the authors treated 11 patients: 3 cases with tuberculous spondylodiscitis (1 dorsal, 2 lumbar); 6 cases with Staphylococcus aureus spondylodiscitis (1 cervical, 2 dorsal, 2 lumbar, 1 dorsolumbar); 1 spondylodiscitis with postsurgical lumbar deformity; and in 1 dorsolumbar case the germ was not identified. Surgical approaches were chosen according to spinal level: In 8 dorsolumbar cases a posterior osteosynthesis was achieved. In 1 cervical case an anterior approach was performed with autologous bone graft from iliac crest. In 2 thoracolumbar cases a posterolateral costotransversectomy was needed. In 1 lumbosacral case iliac somatic grafting was used. Ten patients received adequate antibiotic treatment with clinical remission, and 1 case is in initial follow-up. No complications due to instrumentation were recorded. Spinal deformity was prevented in 10 cases, whereas preexisting spinal deformity was partially corrected in 1 case. In all cases, arthrodesis achieved vertebral stability.

CONCLUSIONS

This study has the limitations of a retrospective review with a limited number of patients. Instrumentation does not appear to hamper healing from infection. Moreover, spinal stabilization, which is assisted by the infectious process even in the absence of bone graft, allows early mobilization. Instrumented osteosynthesis should be preferred for spondylodiscitis with osteolysis and spinal instability because it allows early mobilization and rehabilitation whenever necessary. It prevents spinal deformity and does not hamper healing of infections.
Insights into complication rates, reoperation rates, and healthcare utilization associated with use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein–2 in patients with spine infections
Authors: Sharma Mayur , Dietz Nicholas , Alhourani Ahmad , Ugiliweneza Beatrice , Wang Dengzhi , Drazin Doniel , Boakye Maxwell
Published: February 2019

OBJECTIVE

Use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein–2 (rhBMP-2) in patients with spine infections is controversial. The purpose of this study was to identify long-term complications, reoperations, and healthcare utilization associated with rhBMP-2 use in patients with spine infections.

METHODS

This retrospective study extracted data using ICD-9/10 and CPT codes from MarketScan (2000–2016). Patients were dichotomized into 2 groups (rhBMP-2, no rhBMP-2) based on whether rhBMP-2 was used during fusion surgery for spinal infections. Outcomes of interest were reoperation rates (index level, other levels), readmission rates, discharge disposition, length of stay, complications, and healthcare resource utilization at the index hospitalization and 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months following discharge. Outcomes were compared using nonparametric 2-group tests and generalized linear regression models.

RESULTS

The database search identified 2762 patients with > 24 months’ follow-up; rhBMP-2 was used in 8.4% of their cases. The patients’ median age was 53 years, 52.43% were female, and 15.11% had an Elixhauser Comorbidity Index ≥ 3. Patients in the rhBMP-2 group had higher comorbidity indices, incurred higher costs at index hospitalization, were discharged home in most cases, and had lower complication rates than those in the no–rhBMP-2 group. There was no statistically significant between-groups difference in complication rates 1 month following discharge or in reoperation rates at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months following the procedure. Patients in the no–rhBMP-2 group incurred higher utilization of outpatient services and medication refill costs at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months following surgery.

CONCLUSIONS

In patients undergoing surgery for spine infection, rhBMP-2 use was associated with lower complication rates and higher median payments during index hospitalization compared to cases in which rhBMP-2 was not used. There was no significant between-groups difference in reoperation rates (index and other levels) at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after the index operation. Patients treated with rhBMP-2 incurred lower utilization of outpatient services and overall payments. These results indicate that rhBMP-2 can be used safely in patients with spine infections with cost-effective utilization of healthcare resources and without an increase in complications or reoperation rates.

OBJECTIVE

Few studies have been published specifically examining intravenous drug abuse (IVDA)–associated spinal epidural abscesses (SEAs), an unfortunate sequela of the opioid crisis in the United States. Here, the authors examined a series of patients with IVDA-associated SEAs in order to shed light on this challenging disease entity.

METHODS

This study is a retrospective chart review of patients presenting with IVDA-associated SEAs at the authors’ institution from 2013 to 2018, spanning the statewide implementation of opioid-prescribing restrictions.

RESULTS

A total of 45 patients presented with IVDA-associated SEAs; 46.5% presented with a neurological deficit. Thirty-one patients underwent surgery for neurological deficit, failure of medical therapy, or both. Nineteen surgical patients underwent a fusion procedure along with decompression. The complication rate was 41.9%, and the mortality rate was 6.7%. The average length of stay was 27.6 days. Patients who underwent surgery within 24 hours of onset of neurological symptoms trended toward more improvement in their American Spinal Cord Association Impairment Scale grade than those who did not (0.5 vs −0.2, p = 0.068). Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus was isolated as the causative pathogen in 57.8% of patients. Twenty-three patients (51.5%) kept their scheduled clinic follow-up appointments. Of the fusion patients with adequate follow-up, 5 showed bony arthrodesis and 3 had pseudarthrosis. The rate of IVDA-associated SEAs increased after opioid-prescribing restrictions were put in place, from 0.54 cases per month to 1.15 cases per month (p = 0.017).

CONCLUSIONS

Patients with IVDA-associated SEAs are challenging to treat, with high complication rates and poor follow-up. This disease is increasing in frequency, and opioid-prescribing restrictions did not slow that rise. Community outreach to promote prevention, early medical attention, and medication compliance would benefit this largely publicly funded patient population.
CNS inflammation and neurodegeneration: sequelae of peripheral inoculation with spinal cord tissue in rat

OBJECTIVE

Recent research demonstrates that victims of spinal cord injury (SCI) are at increased risk for dementia and that encephalitis can occur as a consequence of isolated SCI. We theorize that autoimmunity to the central nervous system (CNS) could explain these phenomena and undertook this study to determine whether peripheral inoculation with spinal cord homogenate on 1 or 2 occasions is associated with CNS-directed autoimmunity and neurodegeneration in a rat model.

METHODS

Rats were subcutaneously inoculated with saline or 75 mg of allogeneic spinal cord tissue on 1 or 2 occasions. Animals underwent Morris Water Maze testing, and serial serum samples were collected. Animals were sacrificed 8 weeks following the first inoculation. Autoantibody titers to myelin antigens MAG and GM1 were measured in serum. Immunohistochemistry was used to identify autoantibodies targeting NeuN-labeled neurons and CC1-labeled oligodendrocytes. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and western blotting were performed for pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 and the cell death marker caspase 3 as well as the neurodegenerative proteins tau and β-amyloid in both brain and spinal cord. Fluoro-Jade B was used to stain degenerating neurons, facilitating counting.

RESULTS

Animals inoculated with spinal cord homogenate exhibited increased titers of autoantibodies to MAG and GM1 and autoantibodies binding to neurons and oligodendrocytes. Double-inoculated animals demonstrated a significant increase in the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the brain (TNF-α, p = 0.016; IL-6, p = 0.009) as well as the spinal cord (TNF-α, p = 0.024; IL-6, p = 0.002). The number of degenerating neurons was significantly increased in the brain and spinal cord of inoculated animals (p < 0.0001 and p = 0.028, respectively). Elevated expression of tau and β-amyloid was seen in brain of double-inoculated animals (p = 0.003 and p = 0.009, respectively). Inflammatory marker expression in the brain was positively correlated with anti-myelin autoimmune antibody titers and with tau expression in the brain. Inoculated animals showed impaired memory function in Morris Water Maze testing (p = 0.043).

CONCLUSIONS

The results of these experiments demonstrate that peripheral exposure to spinal cord antigens is associated with CNS-directed autoimmunity and inflammation in the brain and spinal cord as well as degeneration of CNS cells, memory impairment, and production of neurodegenerative proteins particularly when this exposure is repeated. These data support CNS autoimmunity as a candidate mechanism for the dementia that can follow SCI and perhaps other posttraumatic dementias such as chronic traumatic encephalopathy.

OBJECTIVE

Although epidural blood patch (EBP) is considered the gold-standard treatment for drug-resistant orthostatic headache in spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH), no clear evidence exists regarding the best administration method of this technique (blind vs target procedures). The aim of this study was to assess the long-term efficacy of blind lumbar EBP and predictors on preoperative MRI of good outcome.

METHODS

Lumbar EBP was performed by injecting 10 ml of autologous venous blood, fibrin glue, and contrast medium in 101 consecutive patients affected by SIH and orthostatic headache. Visual analog scale (VAS) scores for headache were recorded preoperatively, at 48 hours and 6 months after the procedure, and by telephone interview in July 2017. Patients were defined as good responders if a VAS score reduction of at least 50% was achieved within 48 hours of the procedure and lasted for at least 6 months. Finally, common radiological SIH findings were correlated with clinical outcomes.

RESULTS

The median follow-up was 60 months (range 8–135 months); 140 lumbar EBPs were performed without complications. The baseline VAS score was 8.7 ± 1.3, while the mean VAS score after the first EBP procedure was 3.5 ± 2.2 (p < 0.001). The overall response rate at the 6-month follow-up was 68.3% (mean VAS score 2.5 ± 2.4, p < 0.001). Symptoms recurred in 32 patients (31.7%). These patients underwent a second procedure, with a response rate at the 6-month follow-up of 78.1%. Seven patients (6.9%) did not improve after a third procedure and remained symptomatic. The overall response rate at the last follow-up was 89.1% with a mean VAS score of 2.7 ± 2.3 (p < 0.001). The only MRI predictors of good outcome were location of the iter > 2 mm below the incisural line (p < 0.05) and a pontomesencephalic angle (PMA) < 40° (p < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONS

Lumbar EBP may be considered safe and effective in cases of drug-refractory SIH. The presence of a preprocedural PMA < 40° and location of the iter > 2 mm below the incisural line were the most significant predictors of good outcome. Randomized prospective clinical trials comparing lumbar with targeted EBP are warranted to validate these results.
Ganglion cyst of the temporomandibular joint with intradural extension: case report
Authors: Kamer Aaron P. , Bonnin Jose M. , Spinner Robert J. , Cohen-Gadol Aaron A.
Published: February 2019

Intracranial extension of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ganglion cysts is very rare. Two previously reported cases presented clinically due to effects on cranial nerves and had obvious association with the TMJ on imaging. To the authors’ knowledge, intracranial extension of a TMJ ganglion cyst presenting with seizures and mimicking a primary brain tumor has not been previously reported. The patient underwent resection of a presumptive primary cystic temporal lobe tumor, but the lesion had histopathological features of a nonneoplastic cyst with a myxoid content. He was followed with serial imaging for 5 years before regrowth of the lesion caused new episodes of seizures requiring a repeat operation, during which the transdural defect was repaired after the adjacent segment of the TMJ was curetted. A thorough review of all imaging studies and the histopathological findings from the repeat operation led to the correct diagnosis of a TMJ ganglion cyst. This case highlights an unusual presentation of this rare lesion, as well as its potential for recurrence. TMJ ganglion cysts should be included in the differential diagnosis of cystic tumors involving the anterior temporal lobe, presenting with or without seizures. Focused imaging evaluation of the TMJ can be helpful to rule out the possible role of associated TMJ lesions.
