Evaluation Of The Safety Of Visitors To The Umbul Besuki Tour In Ponggok Village In Terms Of The Construction Of Facilities And Infrastructure

Tourism cannot be separated from human life, because it is closely related to social and economic activities that can be enjoyed and is a way for humans to socialize. The city of Klaten is known to have many potential objects and tourist attractions that are able to attract tourists. This is what is then captured by tourism business actors to create new tourist objects and attractions that contain educational, creative, and attractive messages by taking the concept of nature. Umbul Besuki is a water recreation park in Ponggok Village Tourism, precisely in Kringan-Ponggok Hamlet. This area was developed as an unspoiled green area typical of a rural atmosphere. There were some visitors who were worried when swimming in the pool, for example slipping on the stairs, drowning because there was no sign of the depth of the pool, and falling from a temporary rest area. The importance of a material selection in planning a tourist attraction and complete safety support facilities, this is because many visitors of various ages. from the analysis and monitoring results, there are still many technical provisions that have not been considered, with the conclusion of the architectural design design

Prevalence of anti-Leptospira antibodies and associated risk factors in the Malaysian refugee communities

Background Refugees in Malaysia, who are afflicted by poverty, conflict and poor health, are vulnerable to a range of zoonotic infections in the deprived environmental and social conditions under which they live. Exposure to infections such as leptospirosis, for which rodents are primary hosts, is of particular concern. Methods A wellness program was conducted to determine the presence of antibodies against Leptospira (seroprevalence) in 11 refugee community schools and centers in the Klang Valley, Malaysia. A total of 433 samples were assessed for IgG and IgM antibodies against Leptospira, using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). Results Overall Leptospira seroprevalence was 24.7%, with 3.0% being seropositive for anti-Leptospira IgG and 21.7% for anti-Leptospira IgM. Factors significantly associated with overall Leptospira seroprevalence included: age, ethnicity, pet ownership, knowledge of disease and awareness of disease fatality. For IgM seroprevalence, significant risk factors included sex, ethnicity, eating habits with hands, pet ownership, the presence of rats, walking in bare feet and water recreation visits. Conclusions These findings highlight the need for improvements in health and well-being among the refugee community through disease awareness programs and provision of healthy behavior programs, particularly in hygiene and sanitation through community engagement activities.

Changes in eating and residence customs: case study of the native community of Mayuriaga, Loreto

This research work aims to provide a referential framework of assessment in the context of social damage from the anthropological interpretation of the inhabitants of the native community of Mayuriaga, due to the loss of quality of life, five years after the crude oil spill by part of the Petroperú company occurred in the North Peruvian Pipeline in the Morona River area in the Morona district, Daten de Marañón province, Loreto department, Peru; affecting the lifestyle of the surrounding ethnic communities. This extra-patrimonial damage is expressed and evidenced in eating habits; and residence, in the customs of the traditional use of water, recreation, social stability (tranquility), in the economy, in medicine and in the physical spaces of socialization and social incorporation. Likewise, to know these characteristics, the ethnographic method and on-site visits to the locality that were the subject of our research were used. Finally, we indicate that a quantity of relevant information was collected on the perceptions and changes in the lifestyles of the inhabitants, this thanks to the techniques of interview and observation. El presente trabajo investigación pretende brindar un marco referencial de valoración en el contexto del daño social desde la interpretación antropológica de los pobladores de la comunidad nativa de Mayuriaga, por la pérdida de la calidad de vida, a cinco años después del derrame de petróleo crudo por parte de la empresa Petroperú ocurrido en el Oleoducto Norperuano en la zona del río Morona en el distrito de Morona, provincia del Daten de Marañón, departamento Loreto, Perú; afectando el estilo de vida de las comunidades étnicas aledañas. Este daño extrapatrimonial se expresa y evidencia en los hábitos alimenticios; y de residencia, en las costumbres del uso tradicional del agua, la recreación, la estabilidad social (tranquilidad), en la economía, en la medicina y en los espacios físicos de socialización e incorporación social. Asimismo, para conocer estas características, fue empleado el método etnográfico y las visitas in situ a la localidad motivo de nuestra pesquisa. Finalmente, indicamos que, fue recolectada cantidad de información relevante sobre las percepciones y cambios en los estilos de vida de los pobladores, esto gracias a las técnicas de la entrevista y la observación

Dynamic and Structure Profiling of Kampar River, Slim River and Sungkai River: White Water Recreation Rivers in the State of Perak, Malaysia

In Malaysia, there are many rivers that are being the attraction for white water river activities. Perak, is a state on the west of Peninsular Malaysia has several rivers that are suitable for white water river activities and being among the favourite location for white water river activities enthusiasts. Among the well-known white water rivers in Perak state are Kampar River, Slim River, Sungkai River, Singgor River and Sungai Bernam River. The attraction of a white water river depends on several factors. One of the important factor is the classification of rapid difficulty level. To date, the classification of rapid difficulty level in Malaysia is based on the international standard scale and certified by The International Canoe Federation (ICF). Apart from that, other attraction factors such as river water quality, geographical location, logistics facilities, transportation access, facilities, operator reputations and promotions are among other attraction factors. This present study aims to identify the main attraction factors in the white water rivers in Perak State. Dynamic and structure profiling of the rivers was produced. The white water rivers selected in this study were Kampar River, Slim River and Sungkai River. From the study, Kampar River was identified to be the most preferred river for white water activities compared to Slim River and Sungkai River. Findings from the study was resourceful in the effort of constructing a complete profile of white water rivers structure located in the state of Perak besides promoting white water river activities as a structured recreational tourism activity in Perak.

Anorectal injury related to a personal watercraft: a case report and literature review

Background Douche injury is a rare consequence of water recreation activities. Generally, this type of trauma occurs when people fall into the water in a sitting position during high-speed activities such as using a personal watercraft (PWC). Here, we report a rare case of anorectal injury caused by water jets from a PWC during sudden acceleration from rest. Case presentation A 21-year-old male passenger on a PWC fell off backward from the rear seat when the craft suddenly accelerated. He fell into the water in a supine position with his legs open, and the water jets of the PWC struck his perineum directly. Thereafter, bleeding from the anus was seen, and he was transferred to our hospital. On physical examination, there was a deep laceration interrupting the external anal sphincter in the posterior rectal wall. Abdominal computed tomography revealed a full-layer perforation of the posterior rectal wall and leakage of feces into the extraperitoneal space, but intraperitoneal free air was not seen. Laparoscopic sigmoid loop colostomy and primary suturing of the sphincter and mucosa were performed. He did not have any complications and was discharged from our hospital 16 days after the surgery. His anal function was almost perfectly preserved, and his diverting colostomy was closed 4 months later. Conclusion Anorectal injuries related to PWCs can occur not only while traveling at high speeds, but also when suddenly accelerating from rest. A diverting colostomy should be performed for this type of trauma. In these trauma cases, clinicians must suspect complex and life-threatening anorectal injuries early.

SARANA REKREASI AIR DI BEKASI SELATAN

The rapid development of the population in this current era leads the growing population density. In daily life, we know the terms of first-place and second-place (the place of work/school). As the era developments, each function of first-place and second-place is often combined and in the end it has no clear separation of functions between the two. From the issue, comes third-place to be an intermediate space between first-place and second-place to host activities that should be done outside of the both places. Bekasi as one of the most populous city in Indonesia has a large potential source such as Irrigation Channels Kalimalang which can be utilized as recreational facilities and also water treatment as an educational platform for the community and utilize existing technology. The method used in this project is the Behavior Setting Method, by observing the behavior patterns of surrounding communities supported by other methods such as mapping the pattern of human movements and the place that is the goal of the movement. With this method, the goals that we hoped is we can create a program that fits the habits of the community. The results obtained are a third-place with the main water recreation program, and supported by supporting program such as food-street, waterfront garden, cultural show, and commercial to suit the needs of the surrounding community. AbstrakPerkembangan penduduk yang pesat di era sekarang ini menyebabkan kepadatan penduduk yang terus meningkat. Dalam kehidupan sehari-hari, kita mengenal istilah first-place (rumah) dan second-place (tempat bekerja/sekolah). Seiring perkembangan jaman, masing-masing fungsi dari first-place dan second-place seringkali menyatu dan pada akhirnya tidak memiliki pemisahan fungsi yang jelas diantara keduanya. Dari permasalahan tersebut, terbentuklah third-place untuk menjadi ruang perantara antara first-place dan second-place untuk mewadahi aktivitas yang seharusnya dilakukan di luar kedua tempat tersebut. Bekasi sebagai salah satu kota terpadat di Indonesia memiliki sumber potensi besar seperti Saluran Irigasi kalimalang yang dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai sarana rekreasi dan juga pengolahan air sebagai wadah edukasi bagi masyarakat dan memanfaatkan teknologi yang telah ada. Metode yang dipakai dalam proyek ini adalah Metode Behavior Setting, yakni dengan melakukan pengamatan terhadap pola perilaku masyarakat sekitar yang didukung dengan metode lain seperti melakukan pemetaan terhadap pola pergerakan manusia dan tempat yang menjadi tujuan dari pergerakan tersebut. Dengan metode ini, diharapkan dapat menciptakan program yang sesuai dengan kebiasaan yang ada di masyarakat. Hasil yang diperoleh ialah berupa sebuah third-place dengan program utama rekreasi air, dan didukung oleh program pendukung seperti food-street, waterfront garden, pertunjukkan budaya, dan komersial yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan masayarakat sekitar.

Metagenomic analysis of planktonic riverine microbial consortia using nanopore sequencing reveals insight into river microbe taxonomy and function

Background Riverine ecosystems are biogeochemical powerhouses driven largely by microbial communities that inhabit water columns and sediments. Because rivers are used extensively for anthropogenic purposes (drinking water, recreation, agriculture, and industry), it is essential to understand how these activities affect the composition of river microbial consortia. Recent studies have shown that river metagenomes vary considerably, suggesting that microbial community data should be included in broad-scale river ecosystem models. But such ecogenomic studies have not been applied on a broad “aquascape” scale, and few if any have applied the newest nanopore technology. Results We investigated the metagenomes of 11 rivers across 3 continents using MinION nanopore sequencing, a portable platform that could be useful for future global river monitoring. Up to 10 Gb of data per run were generated with average read lengths of 3.4 kb. Diversity and diagnosis of river function potential was accomplished with 0.5–1.0 ⋅ 106 long reads. Our observations for 7 of the 11 rivers conformed to other river-omic findings, and we exposed previously unrecognized microbial biodiversity in the other 4 rivers. Conclusions Deeper understanding that emerged is that river microbial consortia and the ecological functions they fulfil did not align with geographic location but instead implicated ecological responses of microbes to urban and other anthropogenic effects, and that changes in taxa manifested over a very short geographic space.
