Published: December 2024

Judges play a vital role in upholding justice and public trust within the judicial system. This study examines the importance of the Judges' Code of Ethics in Indonesia, emphasizing its influence on the accountability and integrity of judicial decisions. The primary objectives are to analyze how the code serves as a guideline for judges and to assess its impact on public confidence in the legal system. Utilizing a normative juridical research method, the study relies on both primary and secondary legal materials, including legislative documents and case studies. The research involves a comprehensive literature review and a legislative approach to understand the ethical standards expected of judges in their professional conduct. The findings reveal that adherence to the Judges' Code of Ethics is crucial for maintaining impartiality, avoiding conflicts of interest, and ensuring fair trial processes. Ethical violations can significantly undermine public trust, leading to skepticism regarding judicial impartiality and the effectiveness of the legal system. The study highlights that judges must conduct themselves with integrity, uphold the principles of justice, and avoid any actions that could compromise their role. In conclusion, the Judges' Code of Ethics not only serves as a regulatory framework for judicial behaviour but also acts as a foundation for public confidence in the judiciary. For the legal system to function effectively, it is imperative that judges adhere to these ethical standards, ensuring that their decisions are perceived as fair and just.

Authors: Araminta Rifani Alya , Handayani Aisya Putri , Uranus Hanna Christina
Published: December 2024

Loneliness is an increasing problem among early adult individuals, especially at the age of 20-40 years. Locus of control, as individuals' beliefs about their ability to control outcomes in life, may play an important role in the experience of loneliness. This study aims to examine the effect of locus of control on the level of loneliness in early adult individuals. This study used a quantitative method with a survey approach, involving 250 early adult respondents selected by purposive sampling. Data were collected using an online questionnaire consisting of the UCLA Loneliness Scale and Levenson's Multidimensional Locus of Control Scale. The results of the analysis show that locus of control has a significant negative influence on the level of loneliness, with a coefficient of determination (R²) value of 0.283. This shows that 28.3% of variations in loneliness levels can be explained by locus of control. This study indicates that individuals with higher locus of control tend to experience lower levels of loneliness. The findings provide important insights in the development of interventions to support the mental health of early adult individuals and achieve the expected research objectives.

THE INFLUENCE OF SYNTOPY OF THE AORTA AND LEFT RENAL VEIN ON THE HYDRODYNAMICS OF THE LEFT RENAL VEIN BASIN
Authors:   Kemerovo State Medical University, Putintsev Aleksandr M
Published: December 2024

Relevance. The article analyzes the syntopy of the aorta and the left renal vein, as well as the hydrodynamic effect of the aorta on the hemodynamics of the left renal vein basin.

Aim. To study the relationship between the syntopy of the aorta and the left renal vein, as well as the hydrodynamic effect of the aorta on the left renal vein.

Materials and methods. One hundred corpses from 16 to 62 years old were selected for the study. All of them had no changes or damage to blood vessels in the studied area. Full name, gender, age, cause of death and date of autopsy were recorded. Calculations were carried out using mathematical and hydrodynamic research methods.

Results. With the retroaortic location of the left renal vein, the pressure in the vessel increases. From the peculiarities of the overlap of the left renal vein on the aorta, it follows that the larger the area of application, the greater the pressure exerted by the pulsation from the aorta on the renal vein. Considering that in the layer of fluid adjacent to the surface of the vein the flow velocity is close to zero, one would expect a pulsating flow in the opposite direction, but due to the presence of pressure in the vein providing blood flow, this does not happen.

Conclusion. It has been studied that the outflow of blood from the left renal vein basin is influenced by both compression of the venous vessel and pulse pressure

Authors:   Irkutsk State Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education – Branch of Russian Medical Academy of Continuing Professional Education Irkutsk State Medical University, Eniseeva Elena Sergeevna , Vlasyuk Tatiana Petrovna ,   Irkutsk Regional Clinical Hospital
Published: December 2024

Background. Myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries is defined by the presence of clinical symptoms and signs of myocardial infarction despite angiographic findings of normal or near-normal coronary arteries. Myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries can be classified into myocardial infarction type 1 or type 2. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a possible underlying etiology of myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries.

The aim. To present the diagnosis of myocardial infarction in a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Case descriptions. A clinical case of myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries in a man with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is presented. 57-year-old man presented with retrosternal chest pain that appeared at rest but during an attack of tachyarrhythmia. Electrocardiogram showed right bundle branch block and T inversion in the I, avL, V1-V6. Cardiac troponin T was with a rise and fall in the level. Echocardiography demonstrated asymmetrical septal hypertrophy with thickness of the basal and medium segments of the septum 18 mm, systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve, and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction with a peak systolic pressure gradient of 50 mmHg, diastolic dysfunction of the left ventricle. Coronary angiography revealed stenosis of the left anterior descending artery < 50 %. All these data allow us to diagnose the myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries. Type 2 infarction is most likely, however, the absence of an intracoronary imaging does not completely exclude type 1 myocardial infarction.

Conclusion. The clinical case demonstrates myocardial infarction in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease in patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. To exclude plaque disruption intracoronary imaging should be performed.
Clinical Application of Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist in Neonates with Respiratory Distress: A Systematic Review
Authors: Kadivar Maliheh , Sangsari Razieh , Soltanalian Hamid
Published: December 2024

Context: Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) is a novel mode of ventilation that coordinates the mechanical ventilator and the patient via electrical impulses of the diaphragm. Using these impulses as neural triggers, the patient’s respiration synchronizes with the ventilator. Ventilation with NAVA has successfully been performed in adults with various lung diseases but the application of NAVA in neonates is a novel issue. Objectives: The aim of this review study was to emphasize the NAVA as a new way of neonatal ventilatory support and the importance of ventilator-neonate synchrony in neonatal intensive care units. Study Selection: Several studies have evaluated NAVA in the neonatal period but we described here the cardinal studies. Therefore, we included studies performing NAVA in the neonatal and pediatric population. Results: The review of 10 studies showed that asynchrony was less frequent when using NAVA than when using the pneumatic modes of ventilation. Most of the studies observed a reduction in peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) and FIO2 with NAVA. A reduction in mean airway pressure and work of breathing and an improvement in gas exchange were also observed in some of the studies. Conclusions: We concluded that according to recent studies, the NAVA should be administered in neonates for better synchronization with ventilator and improving the gas exchange and outcomes.
Combination of Ketamine with Dexmedetomidine Infusion as Non-operating Room Anesthesia/Opioid-Free Anaesthesia for Oesophagial Dilatation in a Paediatric Patient of Epidermolysis Bullosa Dystrophica: A Case Report
Authors: Gugale Amrita , Panditrao Mridul Madhav
Published: December 2024

Introduction: Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (DEB) poses major challenges, especially for anesthetic management. The main challenge faced is a pediatric patient with a difficult airway requiring general anesthesia. Any airway manipulation leads to immediate and significant trauma with bullae formation, thereby necessitating the need for postoperative ventilation and prolonged hospital stay. It is advisable to avoid any airway interventions, if possible. Case Presentation: An 11-year-old male child (weighing 15 kg) presented with non-bilious vomiting for 3 - 4 days and dysphagia for solids for 2 - 3 months. Personal history revealed the diagnosis to be a case of DEB at the age of 10 years (genetic testing) with persistent iron deficiency anemia. The patient underwent esophageal dilatation 6 months ago under general anesthesia (propofol, fentanyl on spontaneous respiration), requiring blood transfusion and an intensive care unit (ICU) stay for a day after the procedure. Dexmedetomidine (Dex) injection was started as a low-dose infusion (0.2 µg/kg) 10 minutes before the start of the procedure, followed by (0.2 µg/kg/hour). Before upper gastrointestinal (GI) scope insertion, ketamine injection (0.66 mg/kg) 10 mg intravenous (IV) bolus was given. Upper GI endoscopy and esophageal dilatation were performed in half an hour without any complications. Dexmedetomidine infusion was stopped after the removal of the scope, and the patient awakened within 3 - 4 minutes. He remained hemodynamically stable throughout the entire procedure. Recovery was uneventful, and the patient was obeying commands with no signs of respiratory depression, postoperative nausea/vomiting (PONV), or pain. Vital signs remained stable in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU), and then the patient was moved to the ward. Conclusions: To date, there is no reported case of DEB being successfully managed with only two drugs, dexmedetomidine infusion and a single dose of ketamine for maintaining spontaneous ventilation (opioid-free anesthesia/OFA) with no airway intervention/manipulation, especially in non-operating room anesthesia (NORA) setting.

Authors: Ghofrani Mohammad Hossein , Rahimi Alireza , Alijani Eidi , Feizolahi Foad
Published: December 2024

Background: The clinical evidence supports the effective role of some transcription factors in insulin synthesis and secretion. Objectives: The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of 10 weeks of aerobic and resistance exercise on the expression of glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2) in pancreatic tissue, serum insulin, and glucose concentration in male rats with type II diabetes (T2D). Methods: Type II diabetes was induced in 18 male Wistar rats (weight: 220 ± 10 g) by administering an intraperitoneal (IP) infusion of nicotinamide (110 mg/kg) and streptozotocin (25 mg/kg). The diabetic rats were then randomly assigned into three groups: (1) Control; (2) aerobic exercise; and (3) resistance exercise. The exercises lasted for 10 weeks, 5 times per week for exercise groups. The expression of GLUT2 in pancreatic tissue, serum insulin, and glucose concentration were compared between the groups following the intervention. The data between the groups were compared using the one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results: In comparison to the control group, the resistance and aerobic exercises caused a significant reduction in fasting blood glucose level (P = 0.001 and P = 0.001, respectively) and a significant increase in serum insulin (P = 0.001 and P = 0.013, respectively) and expression level of GLUT2 in the pancreas (P = 0.007 and P = 0.001, respectively). No significant difference was observed in the expression of GLUT2 between aerobic and resistance groups (P = 0.485). Conclusions: According to the findings of this study, apart from the effect of other hormonal and genetic components on insulin synthesis, an increase in the serum insulin and a reduction in fasting blood glucose level following the aerobic and resistance exercises can probably be attributed to the increased expression of GLUT2 in response to exercise methods.

Background: Obesity is a common health concern, especially in females. Although prominent effects of the participation in sports on females’ physiological and motor outcomes have been widely investigated, comparative evidence among female athlete and non-athlete students in a Ghana University is needed. Objectives: This pilot study compared the physiological and motor performance parameters of female athlete and non-athlete students in a Ghana University. Methods: Thirty-one female students aged 17 to 26 years (21.18 ± 1.79) assigned to the two groups (athletes and non-athletes) participated in this cross-sectional study. The athletes participated in university sports for three years, while non-athletes were monitored for the same period. The evaluated parameters consisted of blood pressure, heart rate, body mass index (BMI), %body fat, muscle mass, visceral fat, VO2max, muscle endurance, arms’ and shoulders’ power, the power of legs, agility, and speed. Results: Athletes significantly had better VO2max (P = 0.004), the power of arms and shoulders (P = 0.005) and speed (P = 0.014) compared with non-athletes. Differences in heart rate, blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), BMI, %body fat, muscle mass, visceral fat, the power of legs, and agility were not significant (P > 0.05). Conclusions: There was no significant difference between female athletes and non-athletes in physiological and motor performance attributes. It suggests that the participation of these female students in sports did not affect healthy physiological and motor performance outcomes. Training of university female athletes should emphasize health outcomes, while motor performance attributes are prioritized.

Teknoloji, başta dünya toplumları arasında olmak üzere büyük ya da küçük topluluklar arasında da iletişimi kolaylaştırmış ve kendilerine ait iletileri hem kendi içlerinde hem evrensel boyutta doğru anlaşılmasını sağlamıştır. Birçok üye devletten oluşan ve aynı zamanda bir çeşitlilik oluşumu olan Avrupa Birliği de başlı başına bir iletişim konusu öznesidir. Hem üye ülkeler arasında hem işbirliği içinde olduğu birlik dışı ülke ve kuruluşlarla sürekli iletişim ve etkileşim halindedir. Bunu doğru yönetebilmek için yapay zeka çağına ayak uydurarak AB’yi daha fazla dijitalleştirme yönünde Dijital Avrupa Programı fonu oluşturmuştur. Bu kapsamda Avrupa Komisyonu çatısı altında dil çeşitliliğinin doğuracağı ihtiyaçları çeviri eyleminde, tek bir noktada toplamak amacıyla AB’de bulunan kamu/özel kurum ve kuruluşlar ve AB sınırları içinde ikamet eden serbest çevirmenler ve vatandaşların yararlanabileceği ve iletişim ihtiyaçlarını giderebileceği eTranslation sistemini uygulamaya geçirmiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Avrupa Komisyonu Çeviri Genel Müdürlüğü’nün nöral makine çeviri hizmeti olan eTranslation sisteminde girişi yapılan ya da doküman içindeki metinlerin yapay zeka destekli çeviri ürün çıktılarında bağlı oldukları özel alanlara uygunluğunu çeviride sadakatin boyutlarından işlevsellik çerçevesinde tartışmaktır. eTranslation sisteminde Fransızca, İngilizce ve Türkçe dillerinde metin ya da doküman girdileri yoluyla yine bu dillerde özellikle sistemin sunduğu Genel Metin, AB Resmi Dili, Halk Sağlığı, Fikri Mülkiyet Hukuku gibi metin seçenekleri dahilindeki çeviri ürün çıktıları incelenmiştir. Sisteme sunulan metinler rastgele tarama yoluyla söz konusu alanlar çerçevesinde seçilmiştir. Sonuç olarak üç dilde “genel metin” seçeneği kapsamındaki metinlerde işlevsellik olarak bir düşüklük ortaya çıkmıştır. Ancak yukarıda sıralanan diğer alan seçenekleri işaretlendiği sürece kaynak metne sadakatin arttığına, çeviri ürünün ise işlevselliğinin özellikle bağlam ve sözcüksel olarak kuvvetlendiğine ulaşılmıştır. Kısacası, hali hazırda devam eden ve sürekli yenilenen bir proje olan eTranslation’ın yapay zeka özelliğinin daha çok metin türü sınırlamasıyla daha etkili çalıştığını ve gelecek günlerde birçok özel alanda daha etkin çeviri ürünler oluşturabileceğini söyleyebiliriz.

Précis of Epistemic Care: Vulnerability, Inquiry, and Social Epistemology
Authors: Johnson Casey Rebecca ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: December 2024

In this precis, I explain the basic commitments and the master argument from my book, Epistemic Care: Vulnerability, Inquiry, and Social Epistemology (2023), in which I explore the normative implications of a central observation from social epistemology: we are epistemically interdependent. We depend on other inquirers as we ask questions, assess evidence, and form beliefs—in short, in our inquiry. This means that our inquiry stands to go better or worse depending on the actions that other inquirers take or have taken. We are, therefore, vulnerable in our inquiry. Vulnerability, according to care ethics, generates obligations in many cases. Care epistemology echoes this commitment. We can evaluate communities of inquiry for how well the epistemic vulnerabilities of their members are met. Adequate epistemic care is a necessary requirement for an epistemically admirable community.

Published: December 2024

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with numerous comorbidities, including muscle involvement which consists of changes in the structure and function of peripheral and respiratory muscles. Ultrasound can provide a non-invasive assessment of muscle damage. Ultrasound assessment of the quadriceps contractility index (Qci) is feasible, rapid, simple and reliable. Numerous studies have demonstrated that Qci is linked to the severity of COPD, clinical symptoms and respiratory muscle activity. Furthermore, ultrasound makes it possible to observe the dynamics of the diaphragm by measuring its amplitude, its contraction speed and the duration of each contraction phase. Ultrasound examination of muscle damage in COPD could constitute a promising new tool to assess the severity of the disease.

Despite the availability of national and international recommendations, it should be noted that treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) does not always follow the recommendations.
This study evaluated the current management of patients with COPD at their first visit to the Pulmonology Service consultation. Constantine Regional Military University Hospital
Methods
Sixty-one consecutive patients with spirometry-confirmed stable COPD were included after obtaining informed written consent. Demographic and clinical data, spirometric values, 6-minute walking distance, BMI and current treatment were collected for analysis.
This is a prospective study conducted at Constantine Regional Military University Hospital
Results
Long-acting bronchodilators without inhaled corticosteroids were prescribed in 52.5% of patients, with a preference for LABA (21.3%) over LAMA (8.2%). The combination LABA + LAMA was used in 23% of patients. The unavailability and cost of LAMA could explain this difference in prescription.
Inhaled corticosteroids were used by 39.3% of patients, with overrepresentation in B and D (66.66%).
None of our patients received inhaled corticosteroids alone, or PDE4 inhibitors or theophylline
At the time of the first consultation, 93.4% of our cohort patients were on treatment for COPD. Among those not treated, the majority were in the mild (75%) and moderate (25%) severity groups. Approximately 26.2% of patients received a combination of short-acting bronchodilators (SABA) + two long-acting bronchodilators (LABA + LAMA) + inhaled corticosteroids (IC), with higher prevalence in the most symptomatic groups (B and D), 75%.
Conclusions
The guidelines were not followed in their great majority, so COPD is not treated according to the recommendations of the GOLD, it happens that some patients do not receive any treatment despite the emergence of symptoms.
ICS are commonly administered to patients under treatment, regardless of the severity of airflow limitation.

Cybersecurity Defence Mechanism Against DDoS Attack with Explainability
Authors: Mahmood Alaa Mohammed , Avcı İsa
Published: December 2024

Application-layer attacks (Layer 7 attacks), a form of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) aimed at web servers, have become a significant concern in cybersecurity because of their ability to disrupt services by overwhelming server resources. This study focuses on addressing the challenges of detecting and mitigating the impact of such attacks, which are difficult to counter due to their sophisticated nature. The primary objective of this study is to develop an effective monitoring and defence model to detect, defend, and respond to these attacks efficiently. To achieve this, SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) technology was used to understand the behaviour of the model and to increase the efficiency of the detection classifiers. The defence model is designed with three states: normal, observing, and suspicious. The observing mode, which represents the detection part, is triggered when the server load exceeds a predefined threshold. The detection system incorporates five machine learning (ML) algorithms: decision trees (DTs), support vector machines (SVMs), logistic regression (LR), naive Bayes (NB), and K-nearest neighbours (KNNs). A stacked classifier (SC) was then employed to combine these models to achieve optimal performance. The algorithms were evaluated in terms of accuracy (ACC), precision (PRC), recall (REC), F1 score (F1), and time (T). The SC demonstrates superior accuracy in distinguishing between legitimate traffic and malicious traffic. If the server continues to suffer from overload, the suspicious part of the defence model will be activated, and the mitigation algorithm will be called, which, in turn, bans users responsible for the attack and prevents illegitimate users from connecting to the server. The effects of the mitigation algorithm were noticeable in the server traffic rate, transmission rate, memory utilization, and CPU utilization, confirming its ability to defend against application-layer attacks.

Published: December 2024

This research highlights the critical role of technology in sports, particularly in identifying and developing talent more effectively. Technology enables better athlete performance analysis; however, talent identification still relies on traditional methods. Coaches and sports teachers often select athletes based solely on competition results without leveraging technology-based analysis. As a result, important biomotor components are frequently overlooked, and the manual processing of talent data is time-consuming and less effective.

NACIONALIZAM I KRIZE (MASOVNE MIGRACIJE I COVID-19) U EVROPSKOJ UNIJI
Authors: Sejdinovic Ervin
Published: December 2024

Savremeni procesi globalizacije, u svojoj biti, imaju tendenciju nadvladavanja nacionalne države kao političke kategorije. Eklatantan primjer tih tendencija jeste formiranje nadnacionalnih institucija. U vrijeme političkih, ujedno društvenih, ekonomskih, sigurnosnih i zdravstvenih kriza pokazuje se da, ipak, nacionalne države jesu i dalje osnovne formacije koje konkretno djeluju u cilju ublažavanja i prevazilaženja tih kriza. Nadnacionalne institucije često ne reagiraju kada je to potrebno ili ne reagiraju na adekvatne načine. U ovom istraživanju prikazujemo važnost nacionalnih država u odnosu na nadnacionalne institucije u dvije konkretne političke (društvene, ekonomske, sigurnosne i zdravstvene) krize, a to su masovnije migracije u Evropu s područja Bliskog istoka i kriza izazvana pandemijom COVID-19. Važno je, prije svega, shvatiti pojam nacionalne države i samu ideologiju nacionalizma kako bismo shvatili zašto je nacionalizam često privlačan, a posebno u krizama. Po pitanju migracija, u Evropskoj uniji formirala su se dva koncepta čiji su nosioci bile nacionalne države Njemačka i Mađarska. Pristup u kojem se migranti shvataju kao „kulturni osvajači“ doprinosi tome da se kod domicijelnog stanovništva budi osjećaj šovinizma. Drugi pristup, koji je racionalniji, doprinosi inkluziji migranata u sisteme nacionalnih država, a što rezultira njihovim određenim prosperitetom. U krizi izazvanoj pandemijom COVID-19 jasno se pokazalo da svaka nacionalna država čuva svoje resurse prvenstveno za sebe, čak su i unutar Evropske unije nacionalne države zatvarale svoje granice i na taj način derogirale osnovnu tendenciju globalizacije: slobodan protok ljudi i robe. Informacije su se, također, plasirale i formirale na nivou nacionalnih država. Pojava „vakcinacijskog nacionalizma“, tačnije nastojanja da danas najmoćnije nacionalne države dođu prve do efikasne vakcine su, također, indikator da je nacionalna država još uvijek važan faktor u politici i općenito globalnim odnosima.
