ABSTRACT Local Excellence (KL) is a process and realization of increasing the value of a regional potential so that it becomes a product /service or other work of high value, is unique and has a comparative advantage. The quality of the process and the realization of local excellence is greatly influenced by the available resources, which are better known as 7 M, namely Man, Money, Machine, Material, Method, Marketing and Management. The concept of developing local excellence is inspired by various potentials, namely the potential of natural resources (SDA), human resources (HR), geographical, cultural and historical. Natural resources (SDA) are the potential contained in the earth, water, and aerospace that can be utilized for various life purposes. Human resources (HR) are defined as humans with all the potential they have that can be utilized and developed to become social creatures that are adaptive and transformative and able to utilize the natural potential around them in a balanced and sustainable way. Geographic objects include, among others, formal objects and material objects. Culture is attitude, while the source of attitude is culture. Local excellence in historical concepts is historical potential in the form of relics of ancient objects and traditions that are still preserved today.

Leader merupakan salah satu intisari, sumber daya pokok dan titik sentral dari setiap aktivitas yang terjadi dalam suatu organisasi ataupun perusahaan. Kreativitas dan dinamikanya seorang leader dalam menjalankan wewenangnya akan sangat menentukan apakah tujuan organisasi atau perusahaan tersebut dapat tercapai atau tidak. Hal yang perlu di tekankan adalah bahwa tidak selamanya manajer buruk dan leader adalah baik. Metode penelitiannya adalah studi kepustakaan (Library Research) yaitu studi kepustakaan. Metode pengumpulan data yang digunakan dalam kajian ini adalah metode dokumentasi. Teknik analisa data yang digunakan content analysis adalah metodologi penelitian dari sebuah dokumen. Kajian isi adalah teknik penelitian yang dimanfaatkan untuk menarik kesimpulan yang replikatif dan sahih dari data atas dasar konteksnya. Hasil Penelitiannya adalah Kepemimpinan didefinisikan secara luas sebagai proses mempengaruhi, yang mempengaruhi interpretasi mengenai peristiwa-peristiwa para pengikut, pilihan dari sasaran-sasaran bagi kelompok atau organisasi, pengorganisasian dari aktivitas-aktivitas tersebut, motivasi dari para pengikut, untuk mencapai sasaran, pemeliharaan hubungan kerja sama dan teamwork serta perolehan dukungan dan kerjasama dari orang-orang yang berada di luar kelompok atau organisasi. Gaya kepemimpinan merupakan hasil interaksi antara pemimpin dan orang-orang yang dipimpinnya dalam berbagai keadaan yang mempengaruhinya. Gaya kepemimpinan yang menggambarkan perilaku dalam interaksi tersebut, bila dihimpun berdasarkan kesamaannya yang dominan, akan menghasilkan berbagai tipe kepemimpinan yang tetap terlihat meskipun kondisi yang mempengaruhinya berubah-ubah, karena bersifat insedental. Adapun gaya kepemimpinan yang pokok atau dapat juga disebut ekstrem ada tiga macam yaitu: 1) Kepemimpinan yang otokrasi . Tipe ini menempatkan atau menunjukkan kekuasaan pada satu orang. 2) Kepemimpinan Demokratis. Kepemimpinan gaya ini lebih berorientasi pada manusia dan memberikan bimbingan yang efisien pada bawahan. 3) Kepemimpinan Laissez Faire (bebas). Pada gaya kepemimpinan ini pemimpin tidak memimpin, dia hanya membiarkan kelompoknya berbuat semaunya sendiri.
Insect Herbivores of Ferns along the Pacific Northwest Coast of North America

Published: August 2021

Fifteen species of insect herbivores were discovered on ferns growing along the Pacific northwest coast of North America. These included insects from the orders: Diptera in the families Anthomyiidae, Cecidiomyiidae and Syrphidae: Lepidoptera in the families Erebidae, Tortricidae and Noctuidae: Hymenoptera in the family Tenthredinidae: Hemiptera in the family Aphididae and Coleoptera in the family Curculionidae. The present study illustrates these associations that provides new world and North American host records of fern herbivores. The fossil record of these families is used to determine if the most ancient of these insects (dating from the Mesozoic) are now mostly restricted to ferns and the most recent ones (dating from the Cenozoic) are mostly polyphagous, feeding on ferns as well as various angiosperms. Results indicate that the insect clades belonging to the most ancient families, such as Aneugmenuss and Strongylogaster in the Tenthredinidae and Dasineura and Mycodiplosis in the Cecidiomyiidae, appear to be monophagous on ferns.
What's in a Name? Why it is of vital importance to get the pronunciation right?
Authors: Chakravorty Indranil 
Published: August 2021

Health services across the world are on the one hand the most regulated of all professions, the workforce planning is the most advanced and the restrictions on licence to practice most stringent, especially across borders- yet the workforce is dependent on the ability of large scale movement of professionals across nation-states. The UK NHS has over 41% of its doctors and a quarter of all nurses who were born / trained overseas. This is not much different to many other advanced health systems.
It is also recognised that patient outcomes, recruitment and retention of healthcare professionals who are in great demand depends on autonomy, job satisfaction and a sense of value, equality and a just environment.
A fundamental tenet of equality, celebrating diversity and inclusion is how organisation or society deals with the immigrant professionals or ‘foreigners’. The ability to correctly pronounce ‘foreign’ names is one of the fundamental and most obvious demonstration of respect one accords to a fellow human.
There is a long standing practice of transfiguring foreign sounding names to anglicised or westernized versions for ease of use. The westernization of foreign names is predominantly imposed by the dominant segments of populations on those considered inferior. There is clear evidence of social inequalities linked to one’s race, ethnicity, immigration and gender. Transfiguring one’s name is a clear example of such discrimination, microaggression and a form of bias.
It is time that we understood the impact of such microaggressions of colleagues and our patients. It should be vital for all professionals to take the time and attention needed to get the pronunciation right and in the process understand the cultural diversity, identity and demonstrate due respect and equality. It is also imperative on those of us with foreign sounding names that we help colleagues navigate the rich heritage of our culture and identity and do so with humility. It can only then be a win-win for all.

ObjectiveEpionics SPINE (ES), a novel device that measures spinal movements using electronic sensors including range of motion (RoM) and speed (range of kinematics [RoK]), has already been validated in patients with mechanical back pain and healthy individuals. This study aimed to evaluate ES for quantification of spinal mobility in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA).MethodsA total of 153 individuals, 39 female and 114 male, were examined including 134 patients with axSpA, of whom 40 had nonradiographic (nr)-axSpA, 94 had radiographic (r)-axSpA; 19 were healthy controls (HCs). The results were compared using mean ES scores and modeling was performed using multivariable logistic regression models resulting in good validity and high discriminative power.ResultsES measurements showed meaningful differences between patients with axSpA and HCs (allP< 0.001), as well as between r- and nr-axSpA (P< 0.01). In patients with axSpA, a negative correlation between ES and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index values was found: –0.76 ≤r≤ –0.52 (P< 0.05). Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index scores showed a similar trend (r> –0.39). Patients with r-axSpA had a more limited and slower spinal mobility than those with nr-axSpA. Other patient-reported outcomes almost did not correlate.ConclusionThis study shows that the ES is an objective performance measure and a valid tool to assess spinal mobility in axSpA, also based on the Outcomes Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) criteria. RoK and RoM scores provide additional information on physical function of patients with axSpA.

ObjectiveTo examine the efficacy and safety of interleukin-6 inhibition by tocilizumab (TCZ) in difficult-to-treat, real-world patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc).MethodsTwenty-one patients (20 women; 16 diffuse cutaneous SSc; mean age: 52 ± 10 yrs; 10 with early disease [< 5 yrs]; and 11 with long-standing disease [mean disease duration 6.4 ± 3.7 yrs]) with active joint and/or skin involvement refractory to corticosteroids (n = 21), methotrexate (n = 19), cyclophosphamide (n = 10), mycophenolate mofetil (n = 7), rituximab (n = 1), leflunomide (n = 2), hydroxychloroquine (n = 2), and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (n = 2), who received weekly TCZ (162 mg subcutaneously) in an academic center, were monitored prospectively. Changes in modified Rodnan skin score (mRSS), Disease Activity Score in 28 joints (DAS28), lung function tests (LFTs), and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were analyzed after 1 year of treatment and at end of follow-up.ResultsOne patient discontinued TCZ after 3 months due to inefficacy. During the first year of treatment, improvement was evident in the remaining 20 patients regarding skin involvement (mean mRSS change: –6.9 ± 5.9,P< 0.001), polyarthritis (mean DAS28 change: –1.9 ± 0.8,P< 0.001), and PROs (allP< 0.001); LFT stabilization was observed in 16/20 patients. During the second year, 3 patients discontinued TCZ (cytomegalovirus infection in 1, inefficacy in 2) and 1 died. Beneficial effects were sustained in all 16 patients at end of follow-up (2.2 ± 1.1 yrs), except LFT deterioration in 3 patients. Apart from recurrent digital ulcer infection in 3 patients, TCZ was well tolerated.ConclusionTCZ was effective in refractory joint and skin involvement regardless of SSc disease duration or subtype. Long-term retention rates and disease stabilization for most real-world patients suggest that TCZ might be a valuable choice for difficult-to-treat SSc.

ObjectiveTo examine the association between ultrasound (US)-detected knee inflammation and intermittent and constant pain experiences in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).MethodsParticipants with radiographically early-stage (Kellgren-Lawrence arthritis grading scale [KL] ≤ 2) and late-stage (KL ≥ 3) disease and frequent symptoms underwent musculoskeletal US measures of inflammation using the Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) knee US scoring system. Pain experiences were captured using the Measure of Intermittent and Constant Osteoarthritis Pain (ICOAP) tool. We assessed the association between US-synovitis and ICOAP pain experiences using a series of linear, logistic, or multinomial logistic regression models (as appropriate for each variable), while adjusting for age, sex, BMI, and radiographic stage. Secondary analyses were performed similarly by radiographic stage.ResultsPain and synovitis measures from 248 patients (453 knees) were included. Worse synovitis was associated with higher ICOAP constant pain scores (β 8.05, 95% CI 0.67–15.43), but not intermittent pain scores. Moderate-to-severe synovitis was associated with a 4.73-fold increased relative risk (95% CI 1.06–17.00) of a constant pain pattern. In secondary analyses, moderate-to-severe synovitis in early radiographic OA was associated with 2.70-higher odds (95% CI 1.04–7.02) of any constant pain, 3.28-higher odds (95% CI 1.43–7.52) of any intermittent pain, and with higher intermittent (β 10.47, 95% CI 1.03–19.91) and constant (β 12.62, 95% CI 3.02–22.23) pain scores. No associations were identified for synovitis in those with late radiographic OA.ConclusionIn patients with knee OA, moderate-to-severe synovitis is most strongly associated with constant pain. Inflammation may play context-specific roles across pain experiences, especially in earlier radiographic stages of knee OA.

ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence and 4-year incidence of acute anterior uveitis (AAU), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and psoriasis (PsO), and to explore associations of newly developed extraskeletal manifestations (ESMs) with clinical disease outcome in a large cohort of patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA).MethodsAll consecutive patients included in the Groningen Leeuwarden Axial Spondyloarthritis (GLAS) cohort between 2004 and 2011 were analyzed. History of ESMs at baseline and newly developed ESMs during 4-year follow-up were only recorded when diagnosis by an ophthalmologist, gastroenterologist, or dermatologist was present.ResultsOf the 414 included patients with axSpA, 31.4% had a positive history of ≥ 1 ESMs: 24.9% AAU, 9.4% IBD, and 4.3% PsO. History of PsO was significantly associated with more radiographic damage, especially of the cervical spine. Of the 362 patients with 4-year follow-up data, 15.7% patients developed an ESM: 13.3% patients had AAU (of which 3.6% had a first episode and 9.7% had recurrent AAU), 1.9% developed IBD, and 0.8% developed PsO. Patients with newly developed ESMs (without history of ESMs) had worse Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life scores (mean 10.0 vs. 5.8, P = 0.001), larger occiput-wall distance (median 6.3 vs. 2.0, P = 0.02) and more limited modified Schober test (mean 12.6 vs. 13.6, P = 0.01) after 4 years of follow-up. The majority of patients developing an ESM used anti–tumor necrosis factor therapy.ConclusionHistory of ESMs was present at baseline in one-third of patients with axSpA. The 4-year incidence of ESMs was relatively low, but patients who developed a new ESM reported worse quality of life.
EU’s Civilian Power Preference in the International System
Authors: KAYA Ferat 
Published: August 2021

The EU, which aims at economic integration in Europe with a neo-functionalist approach and then moves towards political unity, did not focus on the foreign policy dimension. Duchene, who made a conceptual classification of the EU's effectiveness in the international arena in the 1970s, defined the EU as "civilian power". The EU, combined the common foreign and security policies in the Maastricht Treaty’s second column, aimed to be univocal and more effective in the international system. The EU, preferring positive conditionally with diplomatic and economic assistance, aimed to be an effective actor in the international system. Although the EU has recently mentioned its name with military missions, it has preferred positive sanctions with economic aid, incentives and privileged trade agreements. This study concludes that the EU, which reinforces and actively uses civilian power instead of military preferences, is a civilian power.
Is Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) Ready to Run a Factory?
Authors: Seidelson Craig Eric 
Published: August 2021

With smart factory investment expected to increase 20% year-on-year over the next five years and total investment expected to reach $275 billion worldwide by 2027, the use of Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) to manage operations is receiving considerable attention. This paper takes an in depth look at how factory data is being generated, stored, processed, transferred, trained and ultimately validated using A.I. The conclusion is that deep machine learning is more than capable of controlling devices. Yet, research shows only 14% of smart manufactures would describe their A.I. efforts as successful. The problems are cost and application. Smart manufacturing is almost exclusively done by multi-billion dollar operations. Is this money well spent? Factories aren’t closed, linear systems. In these chaotic systems infinitesimal changes in any one of the myriad of input variables are capable of producing disproportionate changes in output values. As a result, no matter how much scrap, downtime, sales or on-time delivery data a company collects actual values will diverge exponentially from what existing A.I. algorithms are predicting. Until more research is done predicting dynamic, nonlinear systems A.I. will not be capable of running a factory without human involvement.
