Kebakaran lahan gambut dapat menimbulkan emist GRK Identifikasi yang ada di di Desa Rimbo Panjang, Kecamatan Tambang, Kampar, dimana adanya keluhan masyarakat tentang kondisi lingkungan atau kabut asap. Tujuan kegiatan ini adalah untuk menerapkan eko teknologi pencegahan kebakaran di lahan gambut di Desa Rimbo Panjang, Kecamatan Tambang Kabupaten Kampar Provinsi Riau. Adapun metode yang diterapkan adalah Eko Teknologi dengan sistim solidifikasi artinya memperkecil pori-pori tanah gambut sehingga dapat memadamkan api dengan cepat. Metode lainnya yang digunakan adalah dengan menghambat kontak api dengan udara luar (oksigen) yaitu dengan cara penyiraman menggunakan campuran deterjen. Hasil yang diperoleh dari kegiatan ini menunjukkan bahwa berdasarkan water table pada lahan gambut ditemukan bervariasi dan termasuk kategori gambut dalam, hanya sebagian kecil di dusun 1 yang ditemukan water table pada kedalaman 20 cm. Berdasarkan kondisi lapisan lempung ternyata juga bervariasi ditemukan pada kedalaman antara 2,5 m sampai 6 meter. Berdasarkan hasil observasi di lapangan, maka kondisi gambut di Rimbo Panjang ini rentan dengan kebakaran. Simulasi kebakaran yang telah dilakukan dengan cara membuat kondisi gambut buatan yang kemudian dilakukan pembakaran menunjukkan bahwa metode Eko Teknologi telah mampu melakukan pemadaman kebakaran pada lahan gambut dengan cepat.

Aresearch was conducted to determine the nutrients (dry matter, organic matter and crude protein) degradabilities of ration for Friesian Holstein crossbred cattle (PFH) fed with rice straw as basal diet which was formulated based on degradable protein in the small intestine system. The benefit ofthis research is to give information regarding protein evaluation system to increase nutrient efficiency for ruminants.

Objectives: Since there are no recent data on the short and long-term mortality of pediatric stroke, we examined the 30-day, 1 year and 5 year mortality of children admitted to New Jersey (NJ) hospitals with a diagnosis of stroke using a statewide administrative database. Methods: We used the Myocardial Infarction Data Acquisition System (MIDAS) database, which includes demographic and clinical data on children (aged > 30 days to ≤ 19 years) admitted with a first time diagnosis of stroke to all non-federal hospitals in NJ between 1994 and 2007. Deaths were ascertained by matching the MIDAS records to death information from NJ Death Registration Files within 30 days, 1 year and 5 years from the index admission. Cox proportional hazards regression models were fitted to assess the effect of demographic characteristics and predisposing conditions of stroke on time to death. Results: Thirty-day, 1-year and 5-year mortality rates were 10.2%, 13.7% and 16.2% respectively (Figure 1a) among 1,034 children admitted during the study period. At all time periods, mortality rates from hemorrhagic stroke were 2-3 times higher compared to ischemic stroke and adjusted survival from hemorrhagic stroke was significantly lower compared to ischemic stroke (p< 0.0001) (Figure 1b, 1c, 1d). Twenty-four percent of the deaths were due to a cardiovascular cause, mostly comprising of cerebrovascular hemorrhage and congenital malformations of the circulatory system. The remaining 76% percent of the deaths were due to a non-cardiovascular cause such as cancer, diseases or malformations of nervous system. After adjusting for all covariates, important predictors of mortality were: type of stroke, prior history of cardiac dysrhythmia, CNS tumor, leukemia, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and meningitis. Conclusion: At 5 years, roughly 85% of the children with stroke were alive. However, children with hemorrhagic stroke were at a much higher risk of death compared to those with ischemic stroke.
