IMPLEMENTASI PROGRAM iâ��SUF OLEH BLUD GRIYA LAYAK HUNI PEMERINTAH KOTA SURAKARTA by , DETI INDRA KUSUMA, , Dr.  Agus  Pramusinto,  MDAÂ

“…iâ��SUF  is  one  of  Local  Government  of  Surakartaâ��s  policy  which  aim  to  alleviate the slums. It is managed by Badan Usaha Layanan Daerah Griya Layak  Huni  and  the  fund  was  supported  by  UN  Habitatâ��s  grant.  This  program  is  addressed to low income slum dwellers and provides two kinds of services, they  are technical assistance and credit enhancement.   This research aims to analyze (1) the effectiveness of iâ��SUF program and  (2) the factors that affects the effectiveness of iâ��SUF program. Effectivness is one  of the criteria of evaluation to examine if a policy alternative could reach its goal.  The  goal  for  this  program  is  to  help  people  build  their  healthy  and  affordable  habitat  and  access  financial  services,  thereby  improving  their  productivity  and  capacity to successfully manage their social and commercial endeavor.    This  researchâ��s  result  shows  that  this  program  still  encounters  some  constraints that hold up the effectivity of the implementation. Itâ��s shown in the  small number of the coverage, where the ratio between the number of recipient  is very small compared to the number of slum dwellers. The accessibility of this  program is also still limited for the poors due to their limited ability in providing  the  requirements  needed.  Peopleâ��s  participation  in  decisionâ��making  process  hasnâ��t  been  accomodated  properly  especially  when  the  financial  institutionâ��s  services involved.The low effectiveness of this program is due to some affecting  factors,  they  are:  (1)  Characteristic  of  the  implementing  organization,  (2)  Characteristis of program treatment, (3) Public perception, (4) Carrying Capacity  Of Stakeholder  It is recommended that BLUD GLH to work together with cooperatives as  the financial institutions…”

Women in management : barriers to career progress by Geddes, Jean

“…Finally, a pragmatic approach to undertaking the study underpinned the dialogue between researcher and case study organisation as ways were explored for carrying out the investigation. While it cannot be assumed that the same barriers to progress for women managers found in the case study organisation exist for women managers in other organisations, the findings of this study have nevertheless highlighted issues beyond the borders of the organisation. …”

Quantum reconstruction, understanding, and information: on the insight provided by reconstructing quantum theory from information-theoretic principles by Oughton, N

“…In particular, I argue that we should not expect to gain interpretational insight into the inner workings of quantum theory by locating its boundaries in the context of more general theories, nor should we expect to learn what quantum theory is about or endow the principles with a particular metaphysical status, since the features and principles privileged through each reconstruction are, at least to some extent, dependent on what one chooses to focus on. In carrying out reconstructions, one has the freedom to choose principles that privilege, or abstract away from, particular entities or features of quantum theory, so that quantum theory can be reframed along the lines of one’s choosing.…”

A randomised controlled study of the effectiveness of breathing retraining exercises taught by a physiotherapist either by instructional DVD or in face-to-face sessions in the mana... by Thomas, M, Bruton, A, Little, P, Holgate, S, Lee, A, Yardley, L, George, S, Raftery, J, Versnel, J, Price, D, Pavord, I, Djukanovic, R, Moore, M, Kirby, S, Yao, G, Zhu, S, Arden-Close, E, Thiruvothiyur, M, Webley, F, Stafford-Watson, M, Dixon, E, Taylor, L

Assessing methods to specify the target difference for a randomised controlled trial: DELTA (Difference ELicitation in TriAls) review. by Cook, J, Hislop, J, Adewuyi, T, Harrild, K, Altman, D, Ramsay, C, Fraser, C, Buckley, B, Fayers, P, Harvey, I, Briggs, A, Norrie, J, Fergusson, D, Ford, I, Vale, L

“…There were three interlinked components: (1) systematic review of methods for specifying a target difference for RCTs - a comprehensive search strategy involving an electronic literature search of biomedical and some non-biomedical databases and clinical trials textbooks was carried out; (2) identification of current trial practice using two surveys of triallists - members of the Society for Clinical Trials (SCT) were invited to complete an online survey and respondents were asked about their awareness and use of, and willingness to recommend, methods; one individual per triallist group [UK Clinical Research Collaboration (UKCRC)-registered Clinical Trials Units (CTUs), Medical Research Council (MRC) UK Hubs for Trials Methodology Research and National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) UK Research Design Services (RDS)] was invited to complete a survey; (3) production of a structured guidance document to aid the design of future trials - the draft guidance was developed utilising the results of the systematic review and surveys by the project steering and advisory groups. …”

Systematic reviews of clinical decision tools for acute abdominal pain. by Liu, J, Wyatt, J, Deeks, J, Clamp, S, Keen, J, Verde, P, Ohmann, C, Wellwood, J, Dawes, M, Altman, D

“…It also showed that the earlier in the year the study was performed the higher the performance (RDOR 0.88, 0.83 to 0.92), that when developers evaluated their own DT there was better performance than when independent evaluators carried out the study (RDOR = 3.0, 1.3 to 6.8), and that there was no evidence of association between other quality indicators and DT accuracy. …”

Population-specific HLA impact in immune control of HIV in Mexico and non-Mexican HIV infected cohorts by Juarez Molina, C

“…These data therefore support the Gag hypothesis, and suggest that targeting of certain regions of the HIV-1 genome may have a positive effect in disease outcome, even for individuals carrying “detrimental” alleles.</p> <p>The extensive diversity of the HIV-1 genome and rapid viral adaptation are the main chal- lenges to vaccine design. …”

Vegetation response to climate change: a functional traits-based approach by Kühn, N

“…A systematic review of 148 studies published between 2000-2017 was carried out. Results from this work present a suite of eight key traits that best predict positive plant responses: greater water-use efficiency (WUE), greater resprouting ability, lower relative growth rate, greater clonality/bud banks/below-ground storage, higher wood density, greater rooting depth, lower or higher specific leaf area (SLA) and lower or higher plant height (the latter two varying across biomes). …”
