Analysis of competitive and comparative advantages of potato production in Indonesia.

Fundamental issues in sustainable development of competitive potato production in Indonesia are production and distribution inefficiencies. This study aims to examine the potato production competitiveness through competitive and comparative analyses as well as evaluating the impacts of government policy on potato production. This study employs Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM) to analyse the cross-section data collected from six regencies in Indonesia.

Key elements of disaster mitigation education in inclusive school setting in the Indonesian context.

Children with special needs are one of the most vulnerable groups when disasters occur. They are often excluded from any risk reduction conducted during such situations; therefore, introducing disaster mitigation education at the early stage has numerous benefits. This study aims to explore the critical elements of disaster mitigation education, limiting the scope to primary schools in an inclusive setting in Yogyakarta.

Transforming Growth Factor-β1 and Runt-related Transcription Factor 2 as Markers of Osteogenesis in Stem Cells from Human Exfoliated Deciduous Teeth Enriched Bone Grafting.

Background: Stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) are one source of adult stem cells which can proliferate and differentiate into many types of tissues than any other stem cells. SHED represent potential stem cells for therapeutic therapy and tissue engineering.

Aims: The aim of this study was to compare the expression of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) in hydroxyapatite (HA) scaffold with SHED.
