Authors: Hermawatiningsih Oktaviarika Dewi , Raising Rahmawati
Published: October 2024

Stroke is a medical emergency with significant mortality and morbidity, often influenced by platelet aggregation. Antiplatelet agents are crucial in stroke prevention, as they inhibit platelet function and reduce thrombus formation. Despite antiplatelet therapy, some patients experience recurrent strokes, necessitating further investigation into coagulation parameters like Prothrombin Time (PT) and Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT). This study aims to explore the relationship between antiplatelet therapy and PT/APTT values in stroke patients to assess the risk of recurrent strokes. A comparative study was conducted on two groups of stroke patients: those using aspirin therapy and those not using it. PT and APTT measurements were taken at the start and end of a three-month observation period. Data were analyzed quantitatively, focusing on PT and APTT changes in each group. Results: PT values increased more significantly in the Non-Aspirin group (16.32%) compared to the Aspirin group (11.98%). APTT values also increased more in the Non-Aspirin group (4.97%) compared to the Aspirin group (4.73%). However, the statistical significance of the differences in PT and APTT between the groups was not observed (p > 0.05). The study concludes that there is no significant difference in PT and APTT values between patients using clopidogrel alone or in combination with aspirin, indicating no enhanced risk of recurrent strokes based on these parameters.

Authors: Putri Sekar Widyasari , Baskara Dominggo Bayu , Aditasari Krisnayanti
Published: October 2024

Transportation is one of the contributors to CO2 pollutants that cause Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, ultimately impacting global climate change. The creation of electric vehicles is concerned with clean energy and handling global climate change. This aligns with the 17 global goals of the United Nations, which are the world agenda to protect planet Earth and for everyone to live a decent life by 2030. However, creating innovations in production and transforming consumers to switch from fuel vehicles to electric vehicles, especially electric trucks, is equally difficult. In 2022, based on data from Vehicle Type Approval, electric truck sales in Indonesia have the lowest number compared to other types of electric vehicles. This study aims to discover how innovation should be carried out and how consumer desires can be fulfilled from these innovations so that the market easily accepts electric truck products with the hope that interest and sales can increase. This study uses a literature study method that provides an overview of how the customer-centricity approach is applied to support innovation during production. The results of this study provide suggestions in the development of electric trucks that companies should not only focus on technology but also focus on consumer needs to adopt electric truck technology such as cost and economic benefits, charging infrastructure available in various locations, government support and policies, social influence, economic and social factors, promotion policies and regional support.

Authors: Garwe Evelyn , Thondhlana Juliet
Published: October 2024

As Africa strides towards attaining Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Agenda 2063 for inclusive development, harnessing both internal and external expertise is crucial. Yet, the continent's vast, highly skilled diaspora remains largely sidelined in education systems and knowledge economies. This paper explores the lived experiences of the African diaspora including professionals, innovators, entrepreneurs, and African stakeholders, including academics, university leadership, policymakers, and business leaders, using the coloniality lens to develop a framework for equitable and inclusive diaspora knowledge democracy. Data collection involved interviews with 25 diaspora professionals and 15 African stakeholders. Findings revealed a complex interplay of factors which constrain equitable and inclusive diaspora knowledge democracy which promotes diaspora contribution to Africa’s development. However, both groups expressed a strong commitment to Africa’s progress. The paper proposes a framework for collaborative approaches for dismantling colonial dividers through policy supported by building blocks such as incentives and support, knowledge exchange, engagement channels, and impact reviews. By positioning the diaspora as equitable knowledge democracy partners, Africa can accelerate research translation and fuel sustainable growth.

Zimbabwe’s economic challenges beyond sanctions
Authors: Siambombe Abednico , Hupile Matora
Published: October 2024

This study examines the causes of the Zimbabwean economic crisis beyond the sanctions imposed by the West. The ruling party, ZANU-PF, blames the sanctions for the economic woes, but this research argues that other factors are also responsible. This study is purely qualitative as it synthesises the existing knowledge and uses interviews to gather data. The findings reveal that the economic crisis is rooted in colonial legacies, corruption, institutional failures, maladministration, and regional and international dynamics that have undermined Zimbabwe’s economic potential and performance. The research confirms the negative impact of sanctions on the economy but shows that they are not the main or only cause of the crisis in Zimbabwe. The research concludes with some policy recommendations for addressing economic challenges and restoring growth and stability in Zimbabwe.

In the ever-changing business environment of South-South Nigeria, it was crucial to comprehend internal capabilities and competitive tactics to achieve continuous development and success. This study aimed to fill the knowledge gap by thoroughly examining the internal capabilities and competitive strategies designed to suit south-south Nigeria’s distinctive socio-economic conditions. Utilising current theoretical frameworks and empirical data, this research assessed the internal capabilities of businesses, analysed their competitive tactics, and investigated the variables that influence the strategic environment in the area.

Notwithstanding these challenges, companies exhibit perseverance and ingenuity in their competitive approaches, such as distinguishing their products, achieving cost leadership, expanding into new markets, and forming strategic partnerships. The relationship between a company’s internal capabilities and its competitive strategies highlights the significance of investing in human resources, infrastructure, and technology to improve competitiveness. The report suggests that to fully realise the potential of South-South Nigeria and promote sustainable economic growth, it was recommended to implement comprehensive development plans that prioritise investments in infrastructure, skills development, technology, and strategic alliances.
