Published: August 2019

Chest pain can be a “mask” of a life-threatening condition, which the practitioner must remember. One of such life-threatening condition is aortic aneurysm, which diagnosis presents significant difficulties in routine clinical practice. Clinical manifestations of thoracic aortic aneurysms are extremely variable and non-specific and are mainly depends on the size of the aneurysmal sac, its localization and extent, as well as the etiology of the disease. Here we present a clinical case report of a 48 y.o. patient who died because of the acute cardiac tamponade as a complication of dissecting thoracic aorta aneurysm. The lack of symptoms and clinical instrumental data, initially suggesting the presence of life-threatening disease did not allow the physician to suspect aortic aneurysm and urgently take action regarding it.

Background. Periarticular cysts of the facet joint, due to their rare occurrence, often slip away from the attention of clinicians. However their formation and progression may cause compression of vascular-neural structures with subsequent manifestations of severe neurological disorders.
Description of the clinical case. We present a rare clinical case of surgical treatment of a periarticular cyst of the facet joint. A comprehensive examination of the patient S. revealed: Dorsopathy with degenerative spinal canal stenosis at LV-SI level; spondyloarthrosis; periarticular facet cyst at LV-SI level on the left; radiculopathy LV on the left, in the acute stage; pronounced pain and musculo-tonic syndrome. Complaints of the patient: constant pain in the lumbar spine, extending to the left lower extremity and aggravating when walking at a distance of 50-100 meters; feeling numb when walking on the plantar surface of the left foot. When examining the local status, a forced posture with a bowed head and torso forward was noted; smooth lumbar lordosis and antalgic right-sided scoliosis; tension of paravertebral muscles. Neurological examination revealed LVradiculopathy on the left with moderate paresis of the extensor muscles of the left foot and ipsilateral Lasègue's positive test. MRI examination revealed spinal canal stenosis, facet joint cyst at the level of LV-SI with dimensions of 14×8×8.5 mm. An operative intervention was performed: reconstructive decompressive-stabilizing spinal surgery with a single block removing the articular facet with a periarticular cyst at the left LV-SI level with subsequent posterior transpedicular fixation of the vertebral motor segment. Two months after the operation, complete medical and social rehabilitation of the patient was achieved. No complaints.
Conclusion. In case of compression of a periarticular cyst of vascular-neural structures with severe neurological disorders, surgical treatment with the cyst removal is recommended.

Published: August 2019

In Colombia, water quality studies have been based mostly on physicochemical or bacteriological information, and it wasn´t until the last decades that bioindication began to be integrated and implemented. The purpose of the study was to characterize the water quality of the Frío river, using benthic macroinvertebrates as biological indicators, jointly with physicochemical parameters. With this integration between the biotic and physicochemical indices the water quality was determined more precisely, because it generated a more detailed approach to the state of the Frío river. Once the macroinvertebrates were sampled and identified, it proceeded to calculate water quality indexes (BMWP/Col, ASTP, IBF, EPT), and biodiversity indexes (Shannon-Weaver, Specific Wealth, Margalef Diversity, Menhinick). 687 individuals were sampled belonging to 12 orders, 24 families, and 25 genders. Additionally, an Analysis of Variance and a multivariate analysis were carried out through a Canonical Correlation. Finally, it was determined that the water quality of the Frío River is moderately polluted; In addition, it presents a low bidiversity of macroinvertebrate species, and it was found that the results of the índices are independent of the climatic seasons.

The Possibility of Non-Litigation Advocacy Through Comedy and a New Media: Analysis of the Indonesian Comic “Sakdiyah Ma’ruf”
Authors: Marianto Dian Adi
Published: August 2019

Conventional prosecutions in Indonesia have failed to protect religious freedom and belief as they are often ineffective, unequal, political and authoritarian in decisionmaking for vulnerable groups (grassroots). The state, which should be responsible for protecting the rights of its citizens, instead has a tendency to criminalize victims through inflexible laws. The failings of the legal system has developed a need for non-litigation advocacy to influence public awareness, to balance information, enlarge group support and strengthen the grassroots position. This can be achieved through means such as demonstrations and campaigns through performing arts, as well as conventional arts by the educated middle class. The difficulty in these forms of advocacy has been that grassroots groups still perceive demonstrations as anarchist actions and campaigns through conventional art also less interactive, making it very difficult to engage grassroots communities. The objectives posed in this paper then, are to find the possibility of interactive non-litigation advocacy in a “new media”, and to understand to what extent the public has responded to the campaign conducted by the comic Sakdiyah Ma’ruf. This study uses descriptive content analysis focused on the issue experienced by the comic Sakdiyah Ma‘ruf. In analyzing the data, this research reveals that standup comedy presented by Sakdiyah Ma‘ruf can be used as a form of interactive non-litigation advocacy that can enlarge group support through new media about the conditions of freedom for Muslim women in Indonesia and on wider human rights discourse.

Published: August 2019

In conducting agribusiness, young farmers are connected with each other in a farmer group. Cooperation becomes the major requirement for maintaining their existence. Furthermore, in the digital era, many people use the internet to help their work and present it to the public through social media. Additionally, to develop their agribusiness, young farmers develop good relationships with extension workers who assist them and connect them to the government. Meanwhile, the government develops policies and supporting materials for young farmers such as fertilizer. Therefore, based on this phenomenon, this quantitative research is aimed at understanding young farmers’ cooperation behavior, especially in using social media in supporting their agribusiness and whether there is difference in cooperation between those utilizing social media and those who do not. It employed 39 young farmers in Kalasan and Prambanan Subdistrict who plant chili as horticulture commodities. It showed that young farmers’ cooperation was described in their activities on seedling, irrigation, crops maintaining, and marketing, but their cooperation practice was not high. On the other hand, they did not always use social media and Kolmogorov Smirnov’s analysis resulted that there was not any difference in cooperation practice due to the social media application. Moreover, not all of them were familiar with social media in the implementation of agribusiness. In this case, they need more assistance from extension workers so they should introduce social media as part of agribusiness to all of young farmers through agricultural extensions to connect young farme the worldwide.

Published: August 2019

The headway of information and communication technology has brought into the world a digital era with the emergence of new media such as Twitter social media. Nowadays social media is increasingly used by the community and can support various activities. This condition has also encouraged a new approach to public relations activities known as online public relations (online PR). This online PR activity is very important in addition to traditional PR activities, Grunig (2009) argues that new media has the potential to make public relations more strategic and global. Currently, Twitter is increasingly being used by government public relations, the Directorate General of Tax (DGT) public relations is no exception. But so far there has been no research related to aspects of communication patterns on DGT’s official Twitter account, so research needs to be carried out as input and evaluation material. This study aims to determine the communication pattern based on Grunig and Hunt’s public relations models in a message or tweet delivered by DGT public relations (Taxmin) on DGT’s official Twitter account (@DitjenPajakRI) by referring to the research conducted by Waters and Williams (2011) at government agencies in the USA. The method used in this study is a quantitative method, with a content analysis approach. This study will analyze the content of tweets in the period of July-August 2018. The results of this study found that overall DGT public relation still relies on one-way communication rather than two-way communication. From 565 taxmin tweets, 70.3% public information, 15.8% two-way symmetry, 12.2% publicity, and 1.8% two-way asymmetry. These results indicate that DGT public relation has used all four public relations models together, although it is not yet ideal, which Taxmin is using public information pattern more than other communication patterns.

Authors: Salma Aqida Nuril
Published: August 2019

In this era, people’s lives are intertwined with the Internet and digital media although society might have to bear potential negative effects of these platforms. Free flow of information and the rise of hate speech, fake news and disinformation on the Internet have no doubt increased social polarization. Furthermore, a new phenomenon has arisen, which combines hate speech with indignation or offence-taking, and that is hate spin. Hate spin uses hate speech and fake news as a weapon to gain access to political power. Hate spin is considered to be one of the biggest threats to any democratic country, including Indonesia. A relatively young democracy and its reputation for religious moderatism and diversity, Indonesia has not been immune to the hoax epidemic plaguing societies around the world recently. Scholars assume that improving digital literacy is the best solution against hate spin in Indonesia. However, the current concept of digital literacy has been limited as merely a matter of technical skill. This paper offers an analysis on how to define the contemporary digital literacy concept that has moved beyond basic Internet access, and on how the technology works and is used by political elites with evidence of computational propaganda delivered through political bots, fake accounts and false news during recent political events in Indonesia.

Published: August 2019

Land re-adjustment (LR) is a practical model in the management of land development in the urban development process. One of the most prominent issues in the management of slum improvement is the multiple ownership of the land. Most cities in developing countries, relocate and provide apartments for the inhabitants in handling a slum area. Tangerang City also has its problems in handling slums. In order to achieve sustainable development, we attempt to develop slum areas by considering three aspects: social acceptability, affordability, and environmental sustainability. The environmental aspect is analyzed by considering carbon footprint generated by community activities in the area with and without land re-adjustment. The Dynamics model then is chosen to formulate the relation between the availability of land, water resources, landfill capacity (landfill) and electricity supply capacity with consumption pattern of carbon footprint. There are major dynamic loops, namely: utility, population and housing causal loops. The dynamic model shows a causal link that population has generated the most variable loops, which then contribute to housing and utility needs. In managing slum areas, Land re-adjustment model is able to reduce carbon emissions to about 40 % compared to the other model from business as usual scenario.

Authors: Bintang Koesalamwardi Ario , Fatena Rostiyanti Susy
Published: August 2019

The continuous growth of population in sub-urban areas leads to increasing demand for mid-rise housing. Recent studies found that greenhouse gas emission in Indonesia continues to escalate at an alarming rate, and housing development is considered as one of the greenhouse gas contributors. Zero-Energy Residential Building, a highly energy efficient and low carbon housing design concept, is regarded as the answer for this environmental issue. Application of Zero-Energy Residential Building concept can reach almost zero sites electrical consumption and reduce greenhouse gas emission since this concept utilizes clean and renewable energy sources, e.g. solar cell, to generate electricity independently. However, this design concept has not been implemented widely since the utilization of solar panels, and other energy conservation components are still too expensive. This study is proposed to find out an optimum combination of design parameters that contribute to cost optimization housing design using sequential search algorithm. Comprehensive study literature and experiment using software are applied in this research. Hence, using the parameter combination in designing a mid-rise dense housing and Zero-Energy Building concept can generate optimum life cycle cost performance. As a result, the study concludes that the life cycle cost of optimized mid-rise Zero-Energy Building is better than the conventional mid-rise housing with annual electrical cost saving up to 98 percent.

Published: August 2019

The construction of a townhouse built today no longer has roof vents, compared to colonial buildings as well as traditional architecture scattered in humid tropics. In Indonesia, many buildings are made with a zinc roof, even in North Sulawesi province 92 percent of zinc roofed buildings or metal aluminum. This article has two purposes, the first is to assess the benefits of attic ventilation, especially for zinc roofed buildings and the second is to find out why the ventilation loft is no longer used to present buildings. Research by building two same test cells where one cell has roof vents, and the other cell does not. The test cell with ventilated roofs has the advantage that the interior temperatures are lower on average by 1.2 ∘C than those in a cell without ventilation. Almost all buildings today have a modern and minimalist style where the shape and pattern are delicate and do not allow for roof ventilation; such structures cannot form adequate attic spaces. Based on observation and evaluation, this is the leading cause of the disappearing of attic ventilation.
Another thing was caused by efforts to reduce the selling price of a house with consideration of people’s purchasing power. Ignorance from building owners and developers on the benefits of attic ventilation to reduce room temperature and lighting is one of the factors found in this study; even this problem is made worse by architects who often ignore these benefits in their designs. Comprehensive knowledge is needed for the general public and also for architects for the use of roof ventilation which in turn is an effort to achieve thermal comfort and energy savings in the domestic sector

Published: August 2019

The existence of Green Open Spaces (GOS) in big cities tend to decrease and not evenly distributed. Whereas, the role of GOS is essential for ecological, social, and economic function, also as the city’s aesthetic. Bandung City attempted to meet the needs of GOS by developing many thematic parks, the park which added by unique theme. Thematic parks were built to improve citizen happiness index, but its locations were mostly located in the city center as it is a revitalization of many old city parks. This research is addressed to evaluate the thematic parks provision from spatial equity perspective which seen from the distribution pattern and service range. The distribution pattern analyzed by nearest neighbor analysis of GIS while the service range will be viewed both from normative sight and user. The results showed that the provision of thematic parks in Bandung City only focused on the particular area and had lack of service coverage which indicates spatial injustice. Some areas oversupply and at the same time not serviced at all by thematic parks. None of the thematic parks meets the city scale category. People feel the presence of thematic parks in their neighborhood is very beneficial. Proximity distance is not only the main reason for visiting the park but also influenced by attractiveness and the suitability of the theme with the community’s characteristics.

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) is one of the critical issues in sustainable development related to human health as the primary goal. Sustainable development should address potential human exposure to pollutants and health impacts. The laboratory, as educational support in the university, has specific contaminants, but studies on IAQ and thermal comfort in the laboratory have not been studied. IAQ and thermal comfort in a laboratory are essential as they can affect the work and health of the researchers and staffs. The purpose of this study is to analyze indoor air quality in an integrated laboratory of UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya. This research is a cross-sectional study. Data analysis was done by a quantitative descriptive method. The air quality parameters in the laboratory were temperature, relative humidity, and carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration. All settings compared to the air quality standard. The analysis on carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration, relative humidity (%RH), temperature (∘C) has shown that the indoor air does not exceed the standard according to ASHRAE standard and Health Ministry Regulation with the maximum concentration was 444,3 ppm. The fan installation and increased air filter to controlled humidity are the option to improve the indoor air quality.

All around the world, Green Banking has gained a tremendous moment in the last few decades. The green movement in the banking sector was triggered due to the escalating global climate change being caused by environmental degradation. Mostly attributed to the manufacturing sector, it has now been realized that banks are one of the major causes of the global climate change both directly and indirectly. This has caused an increased focus and stakeholder pressure for Green Banking adoption at the global level. Based on the Institutional theory, this study proposes a framework for examining the relationship between organizational adoption determinants and the adoption of Green Banking. The proposed framework is based on Institutional theory and justified through the existing literature. The study proposes the hypothesis for examining the relationship between determinants and Green Banking adoption. External or institutional factors are proposed to play an essential role in influencing a bank’s adoption of Green Banking practices. The proposed framework can be adopted by a country’s regulatory authorities and the individual banks in order to identify the factors that can positively influence and facilitate the adoption of Green Banking.
