Common Bile Duct Stricture Post Open Cholecystectomy
Common bile duct stricture is a common complication following open cholecystectomy. Approximately 80% of benign strictures occur following injury during a cholecystectomy. We report a female aged 70 years old, with a history of open cholecystectomy due to gallbladder stones. She was admitted to Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital with symptoms and signs of obstructive jaundice. Endoscopy retrograde cholangio-pancreaticography (ERCP) examination revealed proximal common bile duct (CBD) stricture. She underwent open laparotomy, during which, a narrowing of proximal CBD was seen due to a fibrosis involving part of the duodenum. The patient then underwent a hepatic-duodenostomy bypass surgery. The symptoms and signs of obstructive jaundice were relieved after surgery

Nearest Neighbour Decoding and Pilot-Aided Channel Estimation in Stationary Gaussian Flat-Fading Channels
We study the information rates of non-coherent, stationary, Gaussian,
multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) flat-fading channels that are achievable
with nearest neighbour decoding and pilot-aided channel estimation. In
particular, we analyse the behaviour of these achievable rates in the limit as
the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) tends to infinity. We demonstrate that nearest
neighbour decoding and pilot-aided channel estimation achieves the capacity
pre-log - which is defined as the limiting ratio of the capacity to the
logarithm of SNR as the SNR tends to infinity - of non-coherent multiple-input
single-output (MISO) flat-fading channels, and it achieves the best so far
known lower bound on the capacity pre-log of non-coherent MIMO flat-fading
channels.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure. To be presented at the IEEE International
Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT), St. Petersburg, Russia, 2011.

Paradigma Baru Pendidikan Tinggi dan Makna Kuliah Bagi Mahasiswa
The quality of higher education institutions in Indonesia to date is still is low. This can be known when compared with institutions higher education in other countries. It is also known that there is the gap between the existing reality with the goals and standards of graduate competence universities that have been formulated in laws and regulations government and related universities.
Many factors play a role in it. One is the paradigm education - including higher education - is becoming a community benchmark. This growing paradigm will then determine how students give meaning to the lecture that is being pursued. Meanwhile, meaning and any understanding they have about college, will determine their attitudes, behaviors, actions and activities in the process learning. And it will ultimately determine their success within learn.
After quite a while, in the recent paradigm behavioristik become displaced by a new paradigm. The developing and the will be more established lately is a constructive paradigm. With referring to this paradigm, students become the central point in the process learning. Therefore, whatever meaning is given by the students of lectures will determine their attitudes and actions in following learning process. Furthermore, this meaning will determine success educational goals as will be achieved together
Bank dan Riba: Implikasinya dalam Ekonomi Islam
Islamic banks are banks whose activities leave usury problems. While usury is meant is excess property in a muamalah with no compensation. The mechanism of interest-free Islamic banking / usury based on philosophical and practical reasons. The principle of Islamic banking profit sharing makes the risk of loss smaller than deposit interest, but this high profit share still cannot provide a large influence on the economy. The reason is people still choose bank interest because the negative implications of the bank interest system are not felt directly individually in the near future by the publicIslamic banks are banks whose activities leave usury problems.

Perubahan Perdagangan Bebas Ke Integrasi
Free trade towards ASEAN integration within the framework of AFTA are valid independently using the Common Effective Preferential Tariff - CEPT. Based on the implementation of the policy of economic liberalization. It is political interests and others, then this issue stated that the GCC investment regimes open and free is key in improving the competitiveness of ASEAN. Through the case study method and theory of comparative advantage, actually trade in the ASEAN region can also be increased because of the movement of the flow of goods to be not constrained by competitive production. It is mainly in an effort to attract foreign investments further strengthen comparative competition among ASEAN countries. Similarly, trade between ASEAN member countries provide space for integration by increasing the activity of industrial network in advance of the ASEAN countries. Activity ASEAN-AFTA reinforce ASEAN free trade towards the condition of an International regime heyday region.Free Trade, ASEAN Integratio
Effect of Lime Application on Soil Properties and Soybean Yield on Tidal Land
The problems of soybean cultivation on tidal land are low in soil fertility, aluminum (Al) toxicity and poor availability of macro nutrients. Soil acidity and Al toxicity are often fixed by liming. The research aimed to determine the calculation method of lime requirement and its application method for soybean on tidal land. The research was conducted on tidal land in South Kalimantan, Indonesia. Treatment consisted of two factors and arranged in randomize complete block design, replicated three times. The first factor was the method of lime rate calculation: (1) no liming,(2) liming based on10% of Al saturation, (3) liming based on 20% of Al saturation, (4) liming based on 30% of Al saturation, (5) liming based on 0.5 x exchangeable Al, and (6) liming based on 1 x exchangeable Al. The second factor was the method of application: (1) surface,and (2) mixed within 20 cm soil depth. The results showed that liming by mixing dolomite with soil within 20 cm depth resulted in 8% higher plant height compared to that applied on the soil surface. The highest yield was obtained when liming at rate equivalent to 10% of Al saturation was mixed with soil within 20 cm depth
