Authors: Zainul Wasik  , Iswanto Dedy , Saifuddin Muchammad
Published: May 2024

Small and medium-sized businesses, or SMEs, are the foundation of the majority of economies in the world. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) will find it extremely difficult to improve their performance and hard to meet their sustainability objectives in the absence of qualified technological innovation. Hence, Industry 4.0 (I4.0), the next technology frontier, should be embraced by small firms. This study's primary goal is to comprehend the connection between sustainability objectives and the adoption of Industry 4.0 (I-4.0) technologies. It also examines how innovative features facilitate the adoption of I-4.0 by small enterprises.  In order to address the research inquiries and scrutinize the intricate data, AMOS software was used to conduct a structural equation model in this study. The findings showed that the adoption of I-4.0 and sustainability objectives are positively and significantly impacted by the features of technological innovation. With the exception of observability, effective I-4.0 implementation mediates the relationship between innovation traits and sustainability goals. According to the research's conclusions, SMEs should create an effective I-4.0, put it into practice, and cultivate innovative traits in order to meet sustainable objectives.

Authors: Nursa’adah  , Dauman
Published: May 2024

The changing landscape of the millennial-era business world demands affordability and quality, necessitating a minimal cost strategy for optimal performance. Before 2000, permanent employment was the norm, but thereafter, employers began using fixed-term employment agreements managed by outsourcing firms. Various aspects of the employer-employee relationship have been regulated in employment law, including Law No. 13 of 2003 on Manpower and Law No. 11 of 2020 on Job Creation. However, implementing these regulations, particularly concerning compensation for fixed-term employment under Law No. 11 of 2020, has created legal challenges, notably for employers in sectors like cleaning, parking, security, and more. This study employs a normative legal research approach, analyzing legal provisions and their real-world applications. It aims to assess the applicability of severance compensation rules for fixed-term employment agreements in outsourcing companies. The findings will be presented in a report scheduled for publication in July 2023.

Investigating Specific Criminal Intent within the Framework of the Material Element of the Crime
Authors: Wamiq Mohmmad Tariq
Published: May 2024

One of the elements of a crime is the mental element. This element, which plays a crucial role in criminalization and the severity of punishment, has a complex nature attributed to its internal and mental aspects, making its evaluation and analysis challenging. One of the constitutive elements of a crime is the mental element, which this research examines regarding specific criminal intent in limited crimes. Accordingly, the realization of specific criminal intent in limited crimes results from the direct relationship between the mental actions of the perpetrator and the criminal outcome. (Intention to result) is a mental state that, according to all jurists and based on criminal laws, while establishing a direct relationship between the mental actions of the perpetrator and the criminal outcome, embodies specific criminal intent. The perpetrator's knowledge and awareness of the criminal outcome can currently form specific criminal intent in two ways: (knowledge of occurrence and the criminal outcome) and (knowledge of the ability to act in creating the outcome), according to current criminal legislations. Although (knowledge of occurrence) can constitute specific criminal intent in all limited crimes, (knowledge of the ability to act in creating the outcome) is not as universally applicable.

Authors: Gul Sehrash , Ahmed Waseem
Published: May 2024

The textile sector has become a significant source of pollution due to increasing carbon emissions, heightened greenhouse gas emissions, and growing landfill contributions. In response, the industry is turning towards sustainable fashion, which is gaining popularity as an eco-friendly practice. This study utilized the theory of planned behavior (TPB) alongside variables such as environmental concern, personal moral norms, and perceived consumer effectiveness to predict eco-friendly apparel purchasing intentions among educated Indian youth. The research applied variance-based partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) to assess the proposed model. Results revealed that perceived behavioral control significantly and positively impacts purchasing intentions, followed by personal moral norms, general attitude, and perceived consumer effectiveness. Environmental concern was shown to indirectly influence purchasing intentions via the primary TPB variables and personal moral norms. Additionally, multi-group analysis (MGA) was used to investigate the moderating effects of perceived consumer effectiveness on the attitude-intention relationship, finding that individuals with higher perceived effectiveness displayed a more consistent attitude-intention correlation compared to those with lower perceived effectiveness. This study offers valuable insights for professionals and policymakers, suggesting the development of tailored sustainable marketing strategies and policies to address local market conditions.

Evaluation of the relationship between patient blood management and anesthesia method in cesarean section: A single-center study
Authors: Topal Serra
Published: May 2024

Objectives: Patient blood management (PBM) aims to improve patient outcome and safety by reducing the quantity of unnecessary blood transfusions and vitalizing patient-specific anemia reserves. We aimed to determine the efficiency and practicality of patient blood management in the cesarean section operating room in our hospital and the effects of the anesthesia method in cesarean section.
Methods: Between 2019 and 2021, 6011 patients who underwent cesarean section were reviewed at Bursa City Hospital. Patients who received perioperative or postoperative blood product transfusion were divided into two groups as Group I (n=614) and patients who were not transfused into Group II (n=5397). Demographic data of the patients, preoperative hemogram laboratory values, performed anesthesia methods, transfusion rate were recorded from the database.
Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of demographic data (p>0.05). The preoperative anemia rate was 35.91% (n=2159) and in these patients the blood transfusion rate was 21.86% (n=472). Total transfusion rate was reported as 10.21% (n=614). Preoperative hemoglobin levels were statistically lower in Group I. The spinal anesthesia method was found to be statistically higher in both groups.
Conclusion: Patient blood management is very important. In line with the guidelines on this subject, it will reduce unnecessary transfusions and therefore the risks of transfusion complications. In addition, considering the difficulty of supplying blood products, blood transfusion should not be considered primarily as a treatment. Anemia treatment should be planned before surgery and hemoglobin levels should be optimized. It is recommended to prefer regional anesthesia for PBM at cesarean section. In this way, we think that we will both increase the efficiency of patient blood management and reduce the cost and complications of blood transfusion.

Authors: Wang Wei
Published: May 2024

Ecological compensation plays a crucial role in balancing stakeholder interests, aligning with the principles of ecological civilization and sustainable development. However, research on tourism ecological compensation, especially concerning community residents' perspectives, remains limited. This study addresses this gap by examining the case of Zhujiawan Village in China's Qinba Mountain region. Through surveys and analysis, the study investigates community residents' perceptions, preferences, and factors influencing their willingness to accept tourism ecological compensation. The findings reveal that while residents acknowledge the positive economic impacts of rural tourism development, they also express concerns about environmental pollution, particularly waste and noise. They largely attribute responsibility for ecological compensation to the government and tourism developers. Cash compensation emerges as the preferred method, with employment opportunities also valued. Additionally, residents expect an annual compensation standard of 1,033 RMB, influenced by their satisfaction with the local ecological environment and awareness of ecological compensation policies. The study highlights the importance of balancing economic development with environmental protection in rural tourism destinations. It underscores the need for diversified compensation mechanisms and emphasizes the significance of community involvement in decision-making processes for sustainable tourism development.

Transformator tenaga merupakan material transmisi utama pada Gardu Induk 150 kV, pada sisi sekunder transformator terdapat kabel ground untuk mendeteksi arus bocor yang terjadi pada kabel power 20kV. PLN menggunakan cara manual dalam melakukan pengukuran arus bocor pada kabel power 20kV secara periodik sehingga arus bocor pada kabel tidak terdeteksi secara dini. Peningkatan arus bocor kabel tanah pada transformator 150/20 kV dapat menimbulkan gangguan pada penyaluran listrik. Penelitian ini merancang alat monitoring arus bocor kabel tanah pada transformator 150/20 kV secara realtime. Arus bocor ini dideteksi dengan menggunakan sensor arus SCT-013 5A dan diolah oleh Arduino mega 2560, kemudian ditampilkan pada HMI (Human Machine Interface). HMI yang digunakan dalam pengukuran arus bocor kabel tanah pada transformator 150/20 kV memanfaatkan aplikasi VTScada. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa ground kabel power trafo 4 GI Semen Baru 150kV masih dalam kondisi normal dan layak beroperasi karena nilai arus yang terbaca tidak ada yang lebih dari 1 Ampere. Perbandingan hasil pengujian alat dengan tang ampere menunjukkan rata-rata error pembacaan nilai arus dari alat sebesar 2,92%. Arduino Mega 2560 sebagai pusat pengendali alat mampu bekerja sesuai dengan program yang telah dimasukkan dan penggunaan aplikasi VTScada sebagai HMI berhasil dijalankan dengan pengujian berupa telemetering dan telesignaling.

INTRODUCTION. The article discusses the problem of managing patients suffering from metabolic syndrome and chronic cerebrovascular disorders. Metabolic syndrome is an important interdisciplinary problem. Metabolic syndrome significantly increases the incidence of strokes. Systemic metabolic disorders, insulin resistance and oxidative stress, as well as large vessel damage and microangiopathy play an important role. In addition, special attention is paid to low-grade chronic inflammation, which may be associated with the patient’s age. The most important risk factor for the development of acute cerebral ischemia is the combination of components of the metabolic syndrome, in particular, the combination of insulin resistance and arterial hypertension, which increase the likelihood of developing atrial fibrillation and increase the risk of an unfavorable outcome. CONCLUSION. Cognitive impairment is quite common in metabolic syndrome. When treating cognitive impairment as part of metabolic syndrome, it is advisable to use neuroprotectors. The use of citicoline (the drug “Ronocit”) has a clinically significant effect in restoring cognitive functions and reducing the risk of developing post-infarction and post-stroke dementia in patients with metabolic syndrome. The use of various approaches to the treatment of cognitive impairment in metabolic syndrome increases the likelihood of a favorable outcome. It is recommended to use the drugs “Ronocit” and “Cocarnit®” together in the treatment of patients with a predominance of cognitive and asthenic impairments and a clinical symptom complex of diabetic polyneuropathy.

This research investigates precipitation deviations using the Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Station (CHIRPS) dataset within the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform. CHIRPS, developed by the Climate Hazards Group at the University of California, Santa Barbara, in collaboration with the U.S. Geological Survey, provides high-resolution daily precipitation data from 1981 to the present. Leveraging its spatial resolution of 0.05 degrees, we analyzed precipitation patterns over a specified region from 1982 to 2022. The methodology involves comprehensive data preprocessing, including loading, subsetting, and handling missing values using JavaScript in GEE. Climatology was calculated by aggregating the data monthly to establish a baseline of expected precipitation patterns. Deviations from this baseline were computed to identify anomalies. The CHIRPS dataset’s integration into GEE enabled robust spatial and temporal visualization and statistical analysis of precipitation anomalies. This study underscores CHIRPS’s crucial role in enhancing our understanding of precipitation variability, informing climate adaptation strategies, and improving hydrological, agricultural, and disaster risk management practices. The findings contribute valuable insights into precipitation trends and their implications in the context of global climate change.

Making combined materials that consist of unsaturated polyester and coconut fiber is the target of this research. The samples were tested by tensile and hardness tests before and after warm-up, and obtained by the result was that the trend value of hardness of unsaturated polyester+coconut fiber experienced proportional degradation with the addition of the composition of coconut fiber. The composition of 3% coconut fiber+97% unsaturated polyester has the highest hardness value, reaching 46,7 kg/mm2, and downhill becomes 43,1 kgf/mm2 moment heated at a temperature of 500C for 1 hour. Analog to the tensile test, 3% coconut fiber + 97% unsaturated polyester composition has the highest ultimate tensile strength and yield point. Adding fiber can boost the elasticity modulus, but the warm-up treatment causes the expansion of coconut fiber. The result is that the value of the tensile and hardness of the polyblend will go downhill.

Energy drinks are stimulants that men or women generally use to handle sleepiness while driving with sleep deprivation. There is no study about energy drink’s effect on gender. This study aims to learn about energy drinks in different genders while driving with sleep deprivation. Research is done using a laboratory approach using a driving simulator. Ten men and ten women were participants (21 ± 0.95 years). Participants were asked to drive for 90 minutes, and before driving the simulator, participants drank coconut water or Kratingdeng based on the planned order. PVT measured awareness before and after participants used the simulator. Dependent variables measured are mean RT, %minor lapses, and mean 1/RT. EEG evaluated sleepiness during the driving session. Based on ANOVA, energy drinks did not influence mean RT (p-value = 0,088), mean 1/RT (p-value= 0,058), %minor lapses (p-value =0,571), and EEG (p-value = 0,348). Meanwhile, EEG measured sleepiness and was only influenced by gender (p-value = 0,048). Based on the test, there is no difference between the two energy drinks. It is caused by an energy drink’s material that gives the body the same stimulant level. There is a difference in Mean 1/RT between gender and energy drinks. It is caused by composition such as potassium in coconut water or taurine and caffeine in Kratingdeng. The research shows that energy drinks do not influence awareness and sleepiness while driving for 90 minutes. However, energy drinks give different results in awareness of different genders.
