RUSSIAN CIVILIAN PRISONERS IN GERMANY (1914-1918). REPRESENTATIVENESS OF THE DOCUMENTS IN THE SAXON MAIN STATE ARCHIVE
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Rostislavleva Natalia V.
Published: October 2023

The article considers the informative value of the documents in the Saxon Main State Archive (Dresden, Germany) about persecution and restrictions during the First World War against the “enemy aliens”, subjects of the Russian Empire. The main idea in the documents of the archive funds is the rationale for the need of civilian captivity to ensure national security. The archive funds contain information about how the persecution of “enemy aliens” began in Germany, reveal the specifics in the situation with such categories of civilian captives as the interned and confined ones. The documents illustrate the position that the policy of internment is a mirror policy. It depends on the decisions of the government of the Russian Empire in regard to German subjects, who were deported and interned on the territory of Russia. There is an important information is contained on possible ways of humanitarian support for Russian civilian prisoners. The analysis of documents confirms that the least studied segment of the phenomenon of civilian captivity during the First World War is their repatriation
ORGANIZATION OF PROVINCIAL GENDARMERIE ADMINISTRATION IN THE 7TH KAZAN GENDARMERIE DISTRICT ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE PERM PROVINCE
Authors:   Perm State Humanitarian Pedagogical University, Shteinikov Sergei N.
Published: October 2023

The Russian political police were constantly reformed depending on changes in the domestic political situation in the country. Since 1867, provincial gendarmerie administration became an important part of it. Starting their activities as controlling bodies, the State Police gradually turned into basic units of political investigation with broad investigative powers and with a fairly extensive range of responsibilities in general. At the same time, at the local level they remained the most massive institutions of political investigation, which existed until the fall of the tsarist regime in 1917. In the article, on the basis of archival material, the author for the first time considers the process of formation of the Perm provincial Gendarmerie Administration (PPGA) and identifies the issues faced during the formation. He also identifies PGWU officer personnel as well as for the first time he publishes lists of non-commissioned officers of the first enlistment to the PGWU observation staff.
AUDIENCE AND SPECTATORS OF SOVIET HOLIDAYS IN 1920S - 1930S
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Barysheva Elena V.
Published: October 2023

This article attempts to consider the audience as a specific community of spectators, listeners, and visitors of various performances at the stage of its formation in the early Soviet period. Numerous means were used to form the ability to perceive and understand the language of arts, aesthetic ideas and social attitudes; among which public holidays were the most effective. The festive culture of the first decades of Soviet government was focused on the active citizens’ mass participation in the events. The public was not supposed to remain indifferent to the holidays held by the state, primarily revolutionary ones. The roles of the spectator and the actor/participant of theatrical festive performances united in the space of festive culture. The task of Soviet citizens’ ideological upbringing meant their involvement in mass action. Active participation was supposed to foster a sense of collectivism, to form social identity and spiritual values. The state and public organizations’ study of the festive audience composition and spectator interest contributed to the development of methodological recommendations for holding festive events. The article discusses the techniques and methods of studying the audience in the festive practice of social construction of a “new” person in the 1920s–1930s.
MUSEUMS OF SMALL TOWNS IN RUSSIA. FEATURES OF LOCAL HISTORY MEDIATION
Authors:   Ural Federal University named after the first President of Russia B.N. Yeltsin, Mazur Ludmila N.
Published: October 2023

The museum functions as an institution of memory, constructing images of the past and transmitting them to new generations. They are based on scientific ideas, social order and visitor requests, i.e. they differ from historical reality. This process is defined by the term “mediation”, which correlates with the concepts of “communication” and “interpretation”. Taking into account the specifics of the museum (historical, memorial, art), the features of mediation, the images of the past have their own differences and complement each other, constructing a unique image of the place. A special role in this process is played by local history museums aimed at comprehensive modeling and presentation of the local past. The image of the local history created by historical museums is reflected in the exposition and has some specifics. It has a space-time dimension, often supplemented by “action” (interactivity), and is also characterized by abstractness and conventionality, which is directly related to the language of description (scientific and / or literary). The current trend is characterized by active visualization and mythologization of the historical image, which is especially typical for museums in small towns. The article is based on the materials of a historical and sociological survey of 12 small towns in Russia using interview, observation, mind map methods (RSF grant No. 21-18-00418 “Museum of a small town. Tthe multiplicity of cultures of memory”). The program included the study of not only museums (state, municipal, school, home, folk, private), but also archives, libraries, media, i.e. all institutions of memory. Such an integrated approach made it possible to clarify the specifics of the museum “genre” of memorization.

Authors:   Belgorod National Research University, Denisova Irina V. , Lyu-Ku-Tan Viktoria A. ,   Belgorod National Research University
Published: October 2023

Based on a wide range of historical sources, including published reference and anniversary editions, periodicals and documents from the collections of the Russian State Historical Archives and the Department of Manuscripts of the Russian State Library, the professional biography of Paktovskii Fedor Egorovich, a teacher, philologist and public figure, was restored. The research paper introduces previously unknown photographs of him and his family into scientific circulation for the first time, and also presents the attribution of an exhibit, i.e., a book by F.E. Paktovskii, kept in the funds of the Museum of History of the National Research University “BelSU”. In accordance with the geography of his career movements, five main periods of his life (Saratov, Kazan, Morshansk, Belgorod, Khar’kov) were identified and studied in chronological order. It is established that the professional path of F.E. Paktovskii is a movement from the position of a teacher to the position of a gymnasium director, and his social activism was aimed not only at the development of educational institutions, but also the cities in which he served. The research activity of F.E. Paktovskii, as a philologist, that he practiced for many years, is also of interest to researchers. Based on the information from the materials of the periodical press, it was possible to find that he was loved by his students and the intelligentsia

Authors: Ліпкан Наіра , Кучменко Олена
Published: October 2023

В розвитку і прогресуванні хронічної серцевої недостатності (ХСН) беруть участь різні ендогенні механізми. Метою дослідження було вивчення вмісту прозапальних цитокінів, а саме фактору некрозу пухлин-α (ФНП-a) та інтерлейкін-6 (ІЛ-6), у пацієнтів з ХСН. У дослідження було включено 149 пацієнтів з ХСН. За методом імуноферментного аналізу у сироватці крові та супернатантах визначали ФНП-a і ІЛ-6. Продемонстровано зростання (р ≤ 0,05) рівнів ФНП-α і ІЛ-6 в сироватці крові пацієнтів із ХСН. Більший рівень ФНП-a і ІЛ-6 спостерігався у пацієнтів за наявності фібриляції передсердь порівняно із пацієнтами із синусовим ритмом. Рівні ФНП-α і ІЛ-6 зростали із зростанням функціонального класу. Найбільші рівні спостерігалися у пацієнтів із фракцією викиду лівого шлуночка ≤ 25 % і 26-35 % порівняно із групою пацієнтів із фракцією викиду лівого шлуночка ≥ 36 %. Також рівень даних прозапальних цитокінів зростав із зростанням давності захворювання. Залежно від діагнозу найбільший рівень ФНП-α спостерігався у пацієнтів з дилятаційною кардіоміопатією, а найнижчий (на рівні контролю) – у пацієнтів з ішемічною хворобою серця без гіпертонічної хвороби. За цього стану рівні ІЛ-6 в крові у цих пацієнтів протилежні. Також показано зростання (р ≤ 0,05) цитокінпродукуючої здатності мононуклеарів периферичної крові пацієнтів із ХСН, як спонтанної, так і індукованої. При цьому зміни величин показників, що вивчаються, в різних підгрупах були подібними до змін вмісту цитокінів в крові пацієнтів. В результаті проведених досліджень було встановлено підсилення імунозапальної активації імунокомпетентних клітин у всіх пацієнтів з ХСН.
HEALTH EMERGENCIES POST COVID-19: WHAT GUIDANCE CAN AFRICA’S DISABILITY PROTOCOL PROVIDE?
Authors: Mgijima-Konopi Innocentia , Auma Mary
Published: October 2023

Several African countries recorded their first cases of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in March 2020, the same month the World Health Organisation (WHO) declared it a global pandemic. Within three months the virus has spread throughout the continent. By 29 December the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention put the total number of COVID-19 cases in Africa at 2.6 million with 63 300 deaths recorded. Though there are no official statistics on the number of persons with disabilities in Africa who have tested positive for or succumbed to COVID-19, the Working Group on The Rights of Older Persons and People with Disabilities in Africa in its statement on International Day of Persons with Disabilities acknowledged the potential heightened vulnerability of persons with disabilities on the continent to the pandemic reiterating that many persons with disabilities have pre-existing health conditions that may make them more susceptible to contracting the virus and experiencing more severe symptoms, leading to elevated mortality rates. The discussion that follows focuses on aspects of the monitoring report related to gaps in the protection of right to health of persons with disabilities in Africa during the pandemic. The commentary will use the survey results to illustrate how the Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in Africa (African Disability Protocol), once in effect, may provide additional guidance to states in responding more effectively to the health needs of persons with disabilities during possible further ‘surges’ of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as future health care emergencies. It concludes with a call for African states to expediently ratify the African Disability Protocol so it can come into force.
THE ROLE OF NATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS INSTITUTIONS IN ADVANCING ARTICLE 19 OF THE UN CONVENTION ON THE RIGHTS OF PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES
Authors: Kamundia Elizabeth , Sidi Faizah
Published: October 2023

National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) established in accordance with the Principles relating to the Status of National Institutions (Paris Principles) have been identified as an essential pillar in the promotion and protection of the rights of persons with disabilities under article 33(2) of the CRPD. This article examines how NHRIs can leverage their respective mandates to address concerns on implementation of article 19 of the CRPD on the right to live independently in the community. Article 19 is especially important in the African context where persons with disabilities lack access to a range of in-home, residential and other state funded community support services as highlighted by the Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in concluding observations to African states. The article looks into the role played by NHRIs in realising article 19 of the CRPD, with reference to Kenya where the National Human Rights Institution has been designated as the monitoring agency under article 33(2) of the CRPD. The article also explores the potential role of NHRIs in promoting article 19.
THE LINK BETWEEN THE RIGHT TO LIVE INDEPENDENTLY AND TO BE INCLUDED IN THE COMMUNITY FOR PERSONS WITH PSYCHOSOCIAL DISABILITY, AND THE RIGHT TO WORK AND EMPLOYMENT: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF KENYAN LAW
Authors: Genga Shirley
Published: October 2023

The right to live independently and to be included in the community is especially important for persons with psychosocial disabilities as they often find themselves isolated from the community. This paper will delve into what the right to live independently in the community means for persons with psychosocial disabilities. Specifically, it will discuss the link between the right to work and employment, and the right to live independently and in the community. In fact, it will make the argument that if the Kenyan legal framework does not adequately protect the right of persons with psychosocial disabilities to work and employment, then it has failed to protect the right of persons with disability to live independently and to be included in the community. In order to make a determination, this paper will engage in a critical analysis of the Kenyan legal framework on the right to work.

Published: October 2023

The most common factor contributing to visual abnormalities that result in blindness is known as diabetic retinopathy (DR). Retinal fundus scanning, a non-invasive method that is integral to the picture pre-processing phase, can be used to identify and monitor DR. Low intensity, irregular lighting, and inhomogeneous color are some of the main issues with DR fundus photographs. Analysis of aberrant characteristics on retinal fundus images to identify diabetic retinopathy is one of the key responsibilities of image enhancement. However, a variety of approaches have been created and it is unknown whether one is best suited for use with images of the retinal fundus. This study investigated various image enhancement methods in order to see aberrant abnormalities on retinal fundus pictures more clearly. This study investigated various image enhancement methods in order to see aberrant abnormalities on retinal fundus pictures more clearly. The contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) method, the gray-level slicing method, the median filtering method, and the low light method are image improvement methods used to enhance images of the retinal fundus. The parameters Natural Image Quality Evaluator (NIQE), Mean Squared Error (MSE), Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), and entropy will be used to assess each image enhancement technique's performance. An ophthalmologist from Sains University Hospital (HUSM) provided the image data. The findings indicate that while each technique has its own benefits, the CLAHE technique, with a standard deviation MSE of 0.0004, is the best.

We have herein developed a glass-forming composition and the related sol-gel technology for bonding monocrystalline silicon wafers to produce «silicon–insulator–silicon» structures. A possibility to fabricate defect-free glass-like bonding layers at the annealing temperature decreased to 1000–1100 °C is demonstrated. The composites obtained by the sol-gel method can be used in technological processes of formation of the solid compound of silicon wafers.
Sobre las lenguas indí­genas habladas en las zonas Andina y los Llanos Orientales de Colombia: propuesta de clasificaciones desde la tipologí­a areal
Authors: Dí­az Romero Camilo Enrique
Published: October 2023

Este estudio hace observaciones sobre las lenguas indígenas habladas en las zonas Andina y los Llanos Orientales de Colombia desde la tipología areal. Adelaar y Muyken (2004) reportaron la existencia de una macroárea lingüística andina, que se distingue de una zona amazónica. Van Gijn et al. (2017) dividieron lo andino, separando lo llanero de lo estrictamente existente en la región montañosa, aunque sólo lo establecieron a partir de las configuraciones del sintagma nominal, dejando de lado lo fonológico y otros criterios gramaticales, y sin georreferenciaciones de las locaciones concretas de las lenguas. Por ello, se hizo necesario un estudio enfocado en lenguas de estos territorios con datos compilados en González de Pérez y Rodríguez de Montes (2000), pero especificados con propiedades fonológicas y gramaticales basadas en Donegan y Stampe (1983, 2004) y la experiencia en la ponderación sistemática de divisiones territoriales de Nerbonne et al. (2018). Lo más consistente en los resultados fue encontrar divisiones con alcance de áreas lingüísticas y una zona wayuunaiki significativamente consistente en sus contrastes con las demás regiones reconocidas. Se concluyó que la división de lo andino se restringe a lenguas cuyas ubicaciones comprenden desde la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, en el norte, hasta Nariño y Putumayo, territorios inga y kamsá, en el sur, y esto se contrapone a los llanos, que se escinden en dos áreas a nivel gramatical.

Increasing prevalence of overweight and obesity among Tanzanian women of reproductive age intending to conceive: evidence from three Demographic Health Surveys, 2004-2016
Authors: Kikula Amani I , Semaan Aline , Balandya Belinda , Makoko Naku K , Pembe Andrea B , Peñalvo José L , Beňová Lenka
Published: October 2023

Background

The prevalence of people who are overweight or obese is increasing globally, especially in low- and middle-income countries. High body mass index (BMI) among women of reproductive age is a risk factor for various adverse reproductive and pregnancy outcomes. This study aims to describe trends over time in the distribution of BMI among Tanzanian women of reproductive age intending to conceive between 2004/5 and 2015/16, and identify factors associated with high BMI.

Methods

We used data on 20,819 women of reproductive age (15-49 years) intending to conceive who participated in the Tanzania Demographic and Health Surveys in 2004/5, 2010 and 2015/16. We estimated the prevalence of high BMI (being overweight [≥25 to <30 kg/m2] and obesity [≥30kg/m2) and trends in the prevalence of high BMI across the three surveys. Using survey-weighted multivariable logistic regression, we used the most recent 2015/16 survey data to identify factors associated with high BMI.

Results

Median BMI increased from 21.7kg/m2 (inter-quartile range, IQR=19.9-24.1 kg/m2) in 2004/5 to 22.0 kg/m2 (IQR=20.0-24.8 kg/m2) in 2010 to 22.7 kg/m2 (IQR=20.4-26.0 kg/m2) in 2015/16. The prevalence of overweight women increased from 11.1% in 2004/5 to 15.8% in 2015 (P <0.001). The prevalence of obesity increased from 3.1% in 2004/5 to 8.0% in 2015/16 (P<0.001). Women in the highest wealth quintile had higher odds (adjusted odds ratio, aOR= 4.5; 95%CI 3.4-6.3, P<0.001) of high BMI than women in the lowest quintile. The odds of high BMI were about four times greater (aOR=3.9; 95%CI=2.9-5.4, P<0.001) for women 40-44 years compared to 20–24-year-olds. Women in the high-paying occupations had greater odds of high BMI than those working in agriculture (aOR=1.5; 95% CI=1.1-2.2, P=0.002). Women residing in the Southern zone had 1.9 (95%CI=1.5-2.5, P<0.001) greater odds of high BMI than Lake zone residents.

Conclusions

In Tanzania, high BMI affects almost 1 in 4 women of reproductive age who intend to conceive. This contributes to the burden of poor maternal and reproductive health outcomes. We recommend developing and implementing health-system strategies for addressing high BMI, tailored to the modifiable risk factors identified among women of reproductive age.

The protracted conflict in the North West and South West regions of Cameroon, and the North East states of Nigeria, has led to the closure of 29% and 26% of the health facilities, respectively. This has caused the displacement of over 2.21 million persons internally and 350,000 returnees in both countries. In turn, this has created a massive gap in service delivery, prompting humanitarian organisations and the government to use different models of primary health care delivery to affected communities. As part of a larger study, we developed and piloted the interview guides for the qualitative arm of the project since we found none exist for conflict-affected countries to orientate how to navigate the complexities of conducting quality qualitative research in fragile and challenging operating environments. Piloting interviews is important for the reliability of the interview guides to obtain good quality data from interviews. We present an eight-step process for piloting qualitative studies in multiple conflict-affected settings. These includes the development of interview guides, expert consultation, translation of interview guides, risk assessment/mobilisation, recruitment of participants, piloting interviews, modifying interview guides, reflecting on the process and reporting the pilot results.
Barriers, promoters, and strategies for improving task shifting and task sharing implementation in Nigeria: qualitative perspectives of policymakers
Authors: Okoroafor Sunny C , Christmals Christmal Dela
Published: October 2023

Background

Nigeria developed a National Task Shifting and Sharing Policy due to protracted inequitable distribution of health workers, especially at the primary level of care, and the low stock and production rate of skilled health workforce. Following the development of Nigeria’s task shifting and sharing policy and strategy, implementation was promulgated at various levels, with States adopting and implementing the national policy. However, the policy environment for task shifting and sharing varies widely. Consequently, evidence on barriers to and factors promoting successful implementation are inconclusive. Hence, strategies for improving implementation are needed. The evidence from this study can inform the scale-up and strengthening of implementation approaches as Nigeria strives to achieve the national goals, universal health coverage and sustainable development goals.

Methods

An explorative, descriptive research study approach was applied with 20 key informant interviews conducted to explore the perception of policymakers on barriers and promoters of task shifting and sharing in Nigeria. In addition, strategies for improving task shifting and sharing implementation were explored.

Results

The barriers to effective implementation of task shifting ad sharing from our study were the persistent shortage of health workers, inter-cadre rivalry, perceived sub-optimal capacity of the beneficiary cadres, and lack of adequate equipment for delivery of needed services. The factors promoting the implementation of task shifting and sharing were the availability of adapted policies, the political will of the health sector leadership, acceptance of task shifting and sharing implementation by health workers, and the implementation of actions to improve knowledge and skills of health workers to implement shifted or shared tasks by various actors. The strategies to improve future task shifting and sharing implementation include improving staffing levels, scaling up training and periodic retraining, mentoring and supportive supervision, and improving the, use and dissemination of evidence generated.

Conclusions

Several factors influence the implementation of task shifting and sharing. Hence the identification and implementation of relevant strategies are pertinent in achieving set objectives and national goals. In policy and practice, therefore, a proactive exploration of the contextual understanding, barriers to implementation, enablers and learning from the performance of similar interventions is pertinent in shaping strategies for translating evidence to practice through an implementation framework. This should be done in collaboration with stakeholders to foster acceptance and participation.

Overcoming Problems Combination of Server and Client Side Encryption on Web Code Security Using the Slice Code Method
Authors: Kamarudin Kamarudin , Akbar Maulana Fajar
Published: October 2023

Web security protection that is carried out by some web developers is to protect the source code of web applications by encrypting the source code, both the source code that runs on the web server or the source code that runs on the client browser. Combining these two encryption technologies is a problem for web developers. If using server side encryption, the client side source code is not protected. However, if you use client-side encryption, the server source code becomes unreadable by the web server. This study aims to overcome the problem of the combination of these two encryption technologies, so the Slice Code method is used, which is a method that the researchers themselves have developed and used to encrypt server and client source code simultaneously and combine the two. With this method, the original source code is separated into 2 parts, then the pure client source code is encrypted using client encryption technology, then embedded into the pure server source code. The next step is to encrypt the pure server source code. The result is that web applications can run perfectly by having source code encryption from both sides, namely the server side and the client side.

Dogs, as companion animals, have many positive effects on the health and quality of life of dog owners, if the purpose of dog ownership is not as a watchdog but as a companion animal. Dogs can encourage the owner to engage in daily walks, play, sports and other interactions, which are beneficial for physical, mental and social well-being, as has been proven by various studies. The aim of our research was to investigate the role and impact of dogs on dog owners' physical activity, dog interactions and mental health. To achieve our goal, we created an online questionnaire that was completed by 220 dog owner respondents. Our research sought to understand how dog owners develop a relationship with their companion animal, the role of the dog in their active leisure time and the impact of the dog on the owner's mental health. We used a four-part questionnaire to obtain our answers. The first part covered demographic questions, the second part focused on the respondent's dog and the time spent with him/her doing sports. In the third part, the Monash Dog-Owner (MDORS) (Cavo et al., 2016) questionnaire was used and in the last part, the Mental Health Test was used. Our research has confirmed that exercising with dogs has positive effects on humans. Walking with a dog encourages exercise and also encourages the owner to spend time outdoors. Around 26% of the people in the study exercise together and 77.3% walk with their dog. The mental health of dog owners is medium and the level of happiness is above average. These results confirm that promoting dog ownership can help to achieve the objectives of public health strategies to encourage people to be more active, to exercise or to improve quality of life and health.

Published: October 2023

Technological developments are needed in today's digital era because they can help all human activities. PT. Sinarmas LDA Maritime created an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application. The ERP application is used to simplify employees' work in inputting data and monitoring the working period of the crew and the validity period of documents. However, in using the ERP application, there are obstacles to the crew contract extension system, which still uses paper forms, so inputting data into the application takes a long time. Besides that, the ERP application is very dependent on the internet network. This study aims to determine the constraints in optimizing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) applications on the crew contract extension system with the addition of problem solvers. This research method uses a qualitative description approach by conducting observations, interviews, literature studies, and documentation directed at competent and directly involved informants and using SWOT analysis techniques to determine strategic factors for optimizing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) applications by linking research data results. Based on the research that has been done, it was found that optimizing the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application in the crew contract extension system is filling in crew data that still uses paper forms and is dependent on the internet network. Using a paper form is changed to using a G-form so that the input of crew data for extended counters is more effective and efficient. As well as the need for outreach to the ship's crew in order to know the stages of filling in the data. The results of the SWOT analysis show that the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application is in a progressive strategy position, meaning that obstacles in optimizing ERP applications can be overcome because the company is able to take advantage of its strengths and opportunities.
Primjena načela zabrane diskriminacije u izradi općenormativnih akata s posebnim osvrtom na uređivanje novčane pomoći povodom rođenja djeteta
Authors: Ofak Lana
Published: October 2023

Cilj je ovog rada istražiti način na koji se načelo zabrane diskriminacije primjenjuje u izradi općenormativnih akata. Načelo zabrane diskriminacije jedno je od glavnih elemenata vladavine prava. Zabrana diskriminacije propisana je Ustavom Republike Hrvatske, kao i relevantnim međunarodnim izvorima za zaštitu ljudskih prava. Svi propisi i općenormativni akti u Republici Hrvatskoj moraju biti usklađeni sa zahtjevima koje u sebi sadrži zabrana diskriminacije. Rad započinje upućivanjem na glavne pravne izvore zabrane diskriminacije u Republici Hrvatskoj (Ustav, Konvenciju za zaštitu ljudskih prava i temeljnih sloboda te na pravne izvore Europske unije). Navedeni pravni izvori međusobno će se usporediti i identificirat će se razlike u zaštiti koju pružaju od diskriminacije. Premda postoje i drugi značajni međunarodni ugovori koji također propisuju zabranu diskriminacije, zbog opširnosti teme oni neće biti razmatrani u ovom radu. Zbog jednakog razloga, rad se neće moći baviti svim vrstama (oblicima) diskriminacije, nego samo formalnom i materijalnom te izravnom i neizravnom diskriminacijom. Također će se pojasniti tzv. test diskriminacije kojim se ispituje postoje li moguća opravdanja različitog postupanja. U posljednjem dijelu rada analizirat će se odredbe općih akata pojedinih jedinica lokalne samouprave u kojima se na diskriminatoran način uređuje jednokratna novčana pomoć povodom rođenja djeteta. Ovo je područje odabrano imajući u vidu da se u radu pučke pravobraniteljice i specijaliziranih pravobraniteljica za ravnopravnost spolova i djecu svake godine rješavanju pritužbe roditelja koji se smatraju diskriminiranima s obzirom na pretpostavke koje jedinice lokalne samouprave propisuju za ostvarivanje tog prava.

Kontinuirani razvoj zakonodavnog okvira u Republici Francuskoj rezultirao je formiranjem općeg stava o potrebi uspostavljanja „načela kvalitete pravnih propisa“. Ograničenja tog načela i načina njegove provedbe, u procesu donošenja od strane javnopravnih tijela, istakla su se posebno kroz primjedbe iznesene tijekom javnog savjetovanja s ciljem poboljšanja kvalitete njegove učinkovitosti. Usprkos svim nastojanjima, može se zaključiti kako kvaliteta pravnog sustava u posljednje vrijeme nije pokazala znatan napredak.

Published: October 2023

This paper presents a reliability, availability, and maintenance (RAM) analysis framework to evaluate the performance of Power Generation Machines (MPL) as part of office infrastructure. MPL performance is evaluated by calculating maintenance performance, including Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) to see reliability aspects, Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) to see maintainability aspects, and availability to see its operational availability. This research used data as maintenance log sheet data from three MPLs from January to September 2021. The results showed that MPL1 had the most optimal condition with an availability value of 93.48%, MPL2 was 82.19%, and MPL3 was 70.55%. Root cause analysis was carried out using Fishbone Diagram. It was able to identify the main problems in the machine's age and the procedure for submitting maintenance. Maintenance performance improvement is very much needed, especially the availability aspect for MPL2 and MPL3, as well as the valuation of existing preventive care. In addition, determining qualification standards for availability, MTBF, and machine MTTR needs to be carried out as a quantitative consideration in making MPL replacement decisions.

XYZ Laboratory has main tasks and functions to carry out technology service activities in the field of machine tool technology, production and automation. One kind of technology service to the industry is as a testing laboratory. SNI ISO/IEC 17025:2017 is a testing laboratory standard that is suitable to support the XYZ Laboratory in carrying out technology service tasks in the field of testing. Because the XYZ Laboratory has been accredited by KAN (National Accreditation Committee) as a testing laboratory, the XYZ Laboratory has an obligation to participate in an external audit conducted by KAN. This needs to be done to maintain the quality of testing laboratory services so that they remain in accordance with applicable standards. Considering that this external audit will be carried out routinely as long as it is accredited as a testing laboratory, it is necessary to carry out an analysis regarding the findings that often appear at the XYZ Laboratory. This will be useful for formulating preventive and corrective actions in the future. The research used descriptive qualitative with the research subject was a testing laboratory, which consisted of laboratory management and implementer. Data collection is used in this study through semi-structured interviews with employees who have been directly involved in accreditation at the XYZ Laboratory for the formulation, management and application of SNI IEC/ISO 17025: 2017 and non-conformance sheets from 2019 to 2021 from the results of an external audit by the Accreditation Committee. Evaluation of the results of external audits conducted by KAN during 2019, 2020 and 2021, shows that clause 6.4 Equipment, clause 6.2 Personnel, and clause 7.2 Selection, verification and validation of methods, are clauses that often encounter discrepancies. The discrepancy between clauses 6.4 and 6.2 intersects where frequent employee turnover makes employee competence management not run optimally, as evidenced by the discovery of the competence of several employees who do not comply with competency requirements causing equipment maintenance to be hampered.

Published: October 2023

Coronary chronic total occlusion occurred in approximately 15 to 20% of patients. The most common challenges associated with successful percutaneous coronary intervention in chronic total occlusion are undilatable and uncrossable lesions. Uncrossable lesions are characterized as those lesions in which the balloon cannot cross the lesion. These types of lesions are commonly seen in calcified and tortuous arteries, and in chronic total occlusion. Various techniques, such as side branch anchoring, rotational, orbital, or laser atherectomy can be used to treat these challenging lesions. In this article, we describe the tips and tricks which can be commonly used to cross uncrossable lesions.
