Pengadaan Tanah untuk Pembangunan Bandar Udara Kulon Progo
Kepadatan Bandara Adisutjipto di Yogyakarta dikarenakan kesediaan lahan sangat terbatas. Berdasar kondisi tersebut PT Angkasa Pura I (Persero) selaku pengelola bandara mulai mencari alternatif lahan baru. Setelah melalui pencarian dan pertimbangan beberapa tempat, maka dipilihlah lahan di Kecamatan Temon, yang terdiri dari 5 desa, yaitu Desa Jangkaran, Desa Sindutan, Desa Pilihan Desa Kebonrejo, dan Desa Glagah. Dalam rangka pembebasan tanah ini banyak hal dan peraturan yang harus diperhatikan dan dipatuhi. Undang-Undang Nomor 2 tahun 2012 tentang Pengadaan Tanah bagi Pembangunan untuk Kepentingan Umum, dan Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 71 tahun 2012 tentang Penyelenggaraan Pengadaan Tanah Bagi Pembangunan Untuk Kepentingan Umum merupakan peraturan utama yang dipergunakan untuk melaksanakan pembebasan tanah guna lokasi pengganti Bandara Adisutjipto. Oleh karena itu kami ingin meneliti lebih jauh lagi tentang pelaksanaan pembebasasan tanah tersebut serta dampaknya bagi masyarakat sekitar. Hasil penelitian ini adalah pelaksanaan pengadaan tanahuntuk pembangunan bandara di Kulon Progo di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta saat ini sedang berlangsung. Hal ini terjadi karena pembangunan bandara baru di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta merupakan pelaksanaan Program Nasional sektor Perhubungan Udara (Berdasar RPJMN tahun2010-2014 dan RPJMN 2015-2019). Pembangunan ini juga menimbulkan manfaat sosial dan ekonomi bagi masyarakat sekitar di Kulon Progo di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta
The most creative organization in the world? The BBC, 'creativity' and managerial style
The managerial styles of two BBC directors-general, John Birt and Greg Dyke, have often been contrasted but not so far analysed from the perspective of their different views of 'creative management'. This article first addresses the orthodox reading of 'Birtism'; second, it locates Dyke's 'creative' turn in the wider context of fashionable neo-management theory and UK government creative industries policy; third, it details Dyke's drive to change the BBC's culture; and finally, it concludes with some reflections on the uncertainties inherent in managing a creative organisation
Hierarchical contributions of allorecognition pathways in chronic lung rejection
The role of allorecognition in initiating lung graft rejection is not clearly defined. Using the heterotopic tracheal transplantation model, we examined the contributions of the indirect and direct allorecognition pathways in chronic airway rejection. Fully mismatched, wild-type grafts were transplanted into major histocompatibility complex (MHC) II-/-, class II-like accessory molecule (H2-DMα)-/- using MHC I-/- and wild-type allorecipients as control subjects. Similarly, MHC I-/-, MHC II-/-, or MHC I/II-/- allografts were transplanted into wild-type mice with appropriate control subjects. Grafts from nonimmunosuppressed recipients were evaluated at Weeks 2, 4, and 6. Grafts transplanted into MHC II-/- and H2-DMα-/- allorecipients showed a more intact epithelium and reduced lumen obliteration compared with grafts transplanted into wild-type or MHC I-/- allorecipients (p < 0.05 for each). These grafts exhibited abundant CD4+ and CD8+ cell infiltrates similar to control allografts. MHC I-/- and MHC I/II-/- but not MHC II-/- allografts placed in wild-type animals demonstrated less severe rejection compared with allograft control subjects (p < 0.05 for each). Although the indirect allorecognition pathway has the strongest influence on rejection, the direct pathway is sufficient to ultimately cause chronic airway rejection. In addition, these results suggest that MHC class I molecules are the principal alloantigens in the mouse heterotopic tracheal model of obliterative bronchiolitis
Repositioning of the global epicentre of non-optimal cholesterol
High blood cholesterol is typically considered a feature of wealthy western countries1,2. However, dietary and behavioural determinants of blood cholesterol are changing rapidly throughout the world3 and countries are using lipid-lowering medications at varying rates. These changes can have distinct effects on the levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol, which have different effects on human health4,5. However, the trends of HDL and non-HDL cholesterol levels over time have not been previously reported in a global analysis. Here we pooled 1,127 population-based studies that measured blood lipids in 102.6 million individuals aged 18 years and older to estimate trends from 1980 to 2018 in mean total, non-HDL and HDL cholesterol levels for 200 countries. Globally, there was little change in total or non-HDL cholesterol from 1980 to 2018. This was a net effect of increases in low- and middle-income countries, especially in east and southeast Asia, and decreases in high-income western countries, especially those in northwestern Europe, and in central and eastern Europe. As a result, countries with the highest level of non-HDL cholesterol—which is a marker of cardiovascular risk—changed from those in western Europe such as Belgium, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and Malta in 1980 to those in Asia and the Pacific, such as Tokelau, Malaysia, The Philippines and Thailand. In 2017, high non-HDL cholesterol was responsible for an estimated 3.9 million (95% credible interval 3.7 million–4.2 million) worldwide deaths, half of which occurred in east, southeast and south Asia. The global repositioning of lipid-related risk, with non-optimal cholesterol shifting from a distinct feature of high-income countries in northwestern Europe, north America and Australasia to one that affects countries in east and southeast Asia and Oceania should motivate the use of population-based policies and personal interventions to improve nutrition and enhance access to treatment throughout the world.</p
A century of trends in adult human height
Being taller is associated with enhanced longevity, and higher education and earnings. We reanalysed 1472 population-based studies, with measurement of height on more than 18.6 million participants to estimate mean height for people born between 1896 and 1996 in 200 countries. The largest gain in adult height over the past century has occurred in South Korean women and Iranian men, who became 20.2 cm (95% credible interval 17.5-22.7) and 16.5 cm (13.3-19.7) taller, respectively. In contrast, there was little change in adult height in some sub-Saharan African countries and in South Asia over the century of analysis. The tallest people over these 100 years are men born in the Netherlands in the last quarter of 20th century, whose average heights surpassed 182.5 cm, and the shortest were women born in Guatemala in 1896 (140.3 cm; 135.8-144.8). The height differential between the tallest and shortest populations was 19-20 cm a century ago, and has remained the same for women and increased for men a century later despite substantial changes in the ranking of countries

Rising rural body-mass index is the main driver of the global obesity epidemic in adults
Body-mass index (BMI) has increased steadily in most countries in parallel with a rise in the proportion of the population who live in cities 1,2 . This has led to a widely reported view that urbanization is one of the most important drivers of the global rise in obesity 3�6 . Here we use 2,009 population-based studies, with measurements of height and weight in more than 112 million adults, to report national, regional and global trends in mean BMI segregated by place of residence (a rural or urban area) from 1985 to 2017. We show that, contrary to the dominant paradigm, more than 55 of the global rise in mean BMI from 1985 to 2017�and more than 80 in some low- and middle-income regions�was due to increases in BMI in rural areas. This large contribution stems from the fact that, with the exception of women in sub-Saharan Africa, BMI is increasing at the same rate or faster in rural areas than in cities in low- and middle-income regions. These trends have in turn resulted in a closing�and in some countries reversal�of the gap in BMI between urban and rural areas in low- and middle-income countries, especially for women. In high-income and industrialized countries, we noted a persistently higher rural BMI, especially for women. There is an urgent need for an integrated approach to rural nutrition that enhances financial and physical access to healthy foods, to avoid replacing the rural undernutrition disadvantage in poor countries with a more general malnutrition disadvantage that entails excessive consumption of low-quality calories. © 2019, The Author(s)
Population Aging and the Three Demographic Dividends in Asia
The present study first examines the trends in age structural shifts in selected Asian economies over the period 1950–2050 and analyzes their impact on economic growth in terms of the first and second demographic dividends computed from the system of National Transfer Accounts. Then, using the National Transfer Accounts, we analyze the effect of the age structural shifts on the pattern of intergenerational transfers in Japan; the Republic of Korea; and Taipei,China. A brief comparison of the results reveals that, in the next few decades, the latter two are likely to follow in Japan's footsteps by increasing public transfers and asset reallocations, and by reducing familial transfers, particularly among older persons. Next, we consider a newly defined demographic dividend, which is generated through the use of the untapped work capacity of healthy older persons and to which we refer as “the silver” or “the third” demographic dividend. By drawing upon microlevel datasets obtained from Japan and Malaysia, we calculate the magnitude of the impact of that dividend on macroeconomic growth in each of the two economies, concluding that while in Japan the expected effect is substantial, in Malaysia it will take several decades before the country can enjoy comparable benefits
