Abstract

This study aims to determine the sensitivity of the increase or decrease in the selling price of sugar and drops, then the investment value, and the cost of production to the IRR obtained from the investment decision to increase the capacity of the Sragi Sugar Factory. Hypothesis testing is carried out on the results of the calculation of investment analysis which includes several commonly used parameters, namely Net present value (NPV), Internal rate of return (IRR), Profitability Index (PI), and Payback Period (PP), in this case as a comparison used The results of the IRR calculation. The results of the sensitivity study found that the selling price has the highest sensitivity, then the second is the investment value, while the cost of goods manufactured has the lowest sensitivity. The results of tests carried out on three parameters show that there is a significant change between the Selling Price, Investment Value and Cost of Production with the calculation of the IRR of an investment.

Abstract

Introduction: Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by impaired neuromuscular transmission, leading to muscle weakness and fatigue. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) has emerged as a key therapeutic option for MG, particularly in acute exacerbations and myasthenic crises. This systematic review evaluates the efficacy, safety, and optimal use of IVIg in MG management. Methods: Following SWiM guidelines, this review synthesizes data from randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, and other high-quality evidence published between 2015 and 2025. The analysis focuses on IVIg's mechanisms of action, including neutralization of autoantibodies, inhibition of complement activation, and modulation of cytokines. Results: Studies indicate that IVIg improves clinical outcomes in 73-76% of patients, with a favorable safety profile compared to plasma exchange (PLEX). However, questions remain regarding its role in chronic maintenance therapy, corticosteroid-sparing effects, and long-term outcomes. Emerging therapies, such as subcutaneous immunoglobulin (SCIG), FcRn inhibitors (e.g., efgartigimod), and complement inhibitors (e.g., zilucoplan), offer promising alternatives with potential advantages in convenience and specificity. Conclusion: While IVIg remains a cornerstone in MG management, the evolving therapeutic landscape provides new opportunities to enhance patient outcomes and quality of life. Future research should focus on long-term comparative studies, patient adherence, and cost-effectiveness to optimize MG treatment strategies. Keywords: Myasthenia gravis, intravenous immunoglobulin, IVIg, plasma exchange, FcRn inhibitors, complement inhibitors, corticosteroid-sparing, immunomodulation

Abstract

Background: Migraines and cluster headaches are severe neurological disorders characterized by complex pathophysiological mechanisms, particularly involving the trigeminal nerve and vascular inflammatory responses. Both conditions primarily affect the trigeminal nerve, a key pathway in pain transmission, and are closely associated with vascular inflammation. Migraines are typically characterized by recurrent, unilateral, and intense headaches, whereas cluster headaches are marked by excruciating pain, often localized around the eye. These disorders are multifactorial, with various mechanisms contributing to their initiation and persistence. Civamide nasal spray, which modulates neural pathways, has emerged as a promising therapeutic option for targeted pain relief. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Civamide nasal spray in managing these debilitating headaches. Objective: To assess the efficacy of civamide nasal spray in treating migraine and cluster headache attacks. Methods: This study followed the Synthesis without Meta-analysis (SWiM) guideline. A systematic search was conducted using a predefined query in Medline, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Central Library. Eight independent reviewers screened studies for eligibility based inclusion criteria and assessed the risk of bias using the Cochrane RoB 2.0 tool. Results: Two eligible studies were analyzed. Participants receiving civamide demonstrated a greater reduction in weekly headache frequency compared with those receiving a placebo. Additionally, civamide treatment was associated with decrease in pain intensity. Conclusion: The findings suggest that civamide nasal spray effectively reduces both the frequency and severity of headaches. Nonetheless, further investigations, particularly evaluating its long-term preventive use, are required to establish its clinical role in migraine and cluster headache management.
