In Indonesia, maritime safety remains a problem. Ship captains and ship owners often disregard maritime safety standards, particularly for fishing vessels. Provisions for criminal liability for domestic fishing vessels that fail to meet maritime safety standards are an important legal instrument for regulating and enforcing maritime safety regulations in the fisheries sector. Failure of vessels to comply with safety requirements, such as the completeness of safety equipment, engine condition, and vessel structure, can potentially lead to accidents that endanger the lives of crew members and negatively impact the marine environment. This study uses a normative research method with a legislative approach. This article focuses on examining aspects of criminal liability, including the subjects, objects, and legal sanctions imposed for violations of maritime safety standards. The results indicate that perpetrators of violations can be subject to criminal sanctions in the form of fines, detention, and even revocation of vessel operating permits, taking into account human rights and environmental protection. Effective and synergistic law enforcement between relevant authorities is essential to provide a deterrent effect, encourage compliance with safety standards, and improve the system for the sustainability of marine resources.

Derivatives of substituted oxazol-5-one (1–3) and substituted oxazolo-isoxazole (4–6) were successfully synthesized through a multi-step reaction process. Initially, glycine was reacted with acetic anhydride to produce acetyl glycine as a key intermediate. This intermediate subsequently underwent a condensation reaction with various substituted benzaldehydes, leading to the formation of oxazol-5-one derivatives (1–3). In the final synthetic step, these oxazol-5-one derivatives were reacted with hydroxylamine hydrochloride to yield the corresponding oxazolo-isoxazole compounds (4–6). The chemical structures of all synthesized compounds were characterized and confirmed using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR) spectroscopy. Furthermore, molecular docking studies were carried out to evaluate the potential biological interactions of the prepared compounds. Docking simulations were performed using PyRx software, while visualization and interaction analysis were conducted employing PyMOL and Discovery Studio. The combined experimental and computational approaches provide valuable insights into the structural properties and potential biological relevance of the synthesized compounds.

In high-performance computing (HPC) environments, the need to balance memory efficiency and query performance is crucial for ensuring optimal system performance. Traditional data structures, such as B-trees and hash tables, often prioritize either memory usage or query speed, leading to suboptimal performance in memory-constrained systems. This paper proposes a hybrid data structure that combines the strengths of multiple traditional data structures to optimize both memory usage and query processing speed. The proposed hybrid structure integrates cache-conscious algorithms, dynamic memory allocation, and compression techniques for intermediate query results. The approach is evaluated through extensive benchmarking tests comparing it to standard data structures like B-trees and hash tables under various workloads. Results show that the hybrid data structure reduces memory overhead by up to 30% while maintaining query processing speeds up to 1.5 times faster than conventional methods. Furthermore, the hybrid structure demonstrates robust performance across different types of queries, including both point and range queries, ensuring versatility and efficiency. The findings indicate that this hybrid approach provides a promising solution for HPC systems, where both memory efficiency and query speed are essential. Future research can explore extending the hybrid structure to distributed systems and emerging technologies, further improving its scalability and adaptability to new computational paradigms.

This study aims to analyze the effect of workload on employee loyalty at the Class I TPI Immigration Office in Jambi, with performance allowance policies acting as a mediating variable. The research employed a quantitative approach involving 88 respondents selected from the total employee population. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using statistical methods to examine both direct and indirect relationships among variables. The results indicate that employees generally perceive their workload as being at a moderate level; however, workload has a significant negative effect on employee loyalty. In contrast, performance allowance policies demonstrate a significant positive influence on loyalty. Furthermore, the findings reveal that performance allowance policies partially mediate the relationship between workload and employee loyalty, indicating their role in mitigating the negative impact of workload. These results suggest that effective performance allowance policies can enhance employee loyalty despite increasing workload demands. Therefore, organizations should balance workload management with fair and performance-based compensation policies to maintain employee loyalty.

This study examines the impact of Dutch Military Aggression I (1947) and Dutch Military Aggression II (1948–1949) on the political development of Indonesia during the early years of independence. Employing the historical method (heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography) and a qualitative diachronic-synchronic approach, the research analyses primary and secondary sources concerning internal political dynamics and the Republic of Indonesia’s international relations in the period 1947–1949. The findings reveal that both Dutch military aggressions paradoxically served as crucial catalysts for the acceleration of national political consolidation and maturation in Indonesia. The First Aggression triggered international condemnation, transformed the Republic’s status from “rebels” to a sovereign state defending its independence, strengthened national solidarity, and gave birth to the integration of armed struggle and diplomacy—the precursor to the Total People’s Defense doctrine. Meanwhile, the Second Aggression, marked by the occupation of Yogyakarta and the arrest of republican leaders, led to the establishment of the Emergency Government of the Republic of Indonesia (PDRI), closer civil-military coordination, unification of political parties and societal organizations, and heightened global pressure that ultimately resulted in the recognition of sovereignty in 1949. Overall, Dutch military pressure expedited the transformation of political structures, bolstered the legitimacy of the Republican government, and secured both de facto and de jure recognition of Indonesian independence.

Stevens–Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) are rare, life-threatening mucocutaneous reactions characterized by extensive epidermal necrolysis and mucosal involvement. The entities represent a clinical continuum distinguished by the extent of epidermal detachment (SJS <10% body surface area [BSA], SJS/TEN overlap 10–30%, TEN >30%). Most cases are drug-induced, making early culprit-drug withdrawal and structured supportive care the cornerstones of management. Immunopathogenesis is primarily mediated by drug-specific cytotoxic T cells and NK cells through granulysin, Fas–Fas ligand, and perforin/granzyme pathways, with emerging roles of necroptosis and candidate biomarkers such as RIP3 and galectin-7. Diagnosis relies on timely recognition of the characteristic painful erythematous/targetoid lesions, Nikolsky/Asboe–Hansen signs, multi-site mucositis, accurate BSA assessment, and early severity scoring (e.g., SCORTEN) to guide referral and monitoring. Systemic immunomodulators (corticosteroids, cyclosporine, IVIg, anti-TNF agents) have variable evidence; thus, individualized selection and early multidisciplinary care particularly ophthalmologic involvement are essential to reduce acute mortality and long-term sequelae.
