Authors: Azura Audilia Hany , Akhmad Budi Cahyono
Published: August 2024

The notary's covernote itself is issued because the authentic deed relating to the bank credit disbursement process has not been completely completed by the notary, so the covernote is issued as a temporary legal umbrella while the process of making the authentic deed is completed by the notary. So the aim of this research is to find out the legal position of notary covernotes which are used as the basis for credit disbursement if they cause problems in the future and what the responsibilities of notaries are in issuing covernotes that are not regulated in statutory regulations. This research uses normative juridical research methods. The results of this research show that the practice of making covernotes by notaries is a habit carried out by notaries because creditors or banks want credit disbursement to be carried out so they need a basis for this so that making covernotes by notaries is not regulated by law and is not is a legal product from a notary which results in the absence of legal certainty in the covernote.

Published: August 2024

Execution of collateral objects is basically uncomplicated. The holder of the first Mortgage is also entitled to carry out direct execution of the object of the Mortgage that is used as collateral because in addition to the deed of Mortgage it also functions as proof of the existence of a Mortgage. Mortgage is a guarantee institution for land rights in the codification of national land law since the Mortgage Law was promulgated on April 9, 1996 , Mortgage rights function to provide protection for certain creditors and certain positions. where the deed is affixed with the irah-irah "For the sake of Justice Based on Belief in the One and Only God", which has executive powers which is the same as a court decision that has permanent legal force. Despite the fact that the auction procedure is likewise governed by a Minister of Finance Regulation, many lawsuits seeking the cancellation of auctions are nonetheless filed with the District Court on a regular basis. This research is included in the category of normative legal research, which analyzes laws and regulations in a comprehensive legal system. With regard to authority, in essence, an owner (eigenaar) has the power to control (beschikkingsbevoegdheid) and is authorized to act (handelingsbekwaanheid), but a person who is not an owner does not have power (beschikkingssonbevoegdheid) and may not act. Parate executie arrangements were prepared by legislators as a form of legal protection for the parties and are an excellent means of adjusting to legal requirements in the economic field.

Published: August 2024

Government Regulation Number 24 of 2022 concerning the Implementation of Law Number 24 of 2019 concerning the Creative Economy aims to optimize intellectual property as credit or financing collateral for creative economy actors. From the banking side, intellectual property as an object of collateral cannot be implemented for various reasons, including those related to the execution of intellectual property in the event of bad credit or financing. Eventhough auction regulations recognize intellectual property as intangible assets that can be executed, they still don’t provide legal certainty for both creditors and debtors. This research aims to analyse regulatory constraints in intellectual property execution auctions and renewal in auction regulations that need to be carried out to support creative economy financing schemes. This research uses a normative juridical approach with analytical descriptive research specifications and qualitative juridical data analysis. Based on the research, the following results were obtained: Although intellectual property is recognized as an object of execution auctions, regulation haven’t provide certainty regarding the execution mechanism, especially regarding the transfer of intellectual property rights. So, the idea is to make the rules stricter so that execution auctions can support intellectual property-based financing schemes for people working in the creative economy.

The Role of Cornichons in the Biogenesis and Functioning of Monovalent-Cation Transport Systems
Authors: Papoušková K , Černá K , Radová V , Zimmermannová O
Published: August 2024

Monovalent-cation homeostasis, crucial for all living cells, is ensured by the activity of various types of ion transport systems located either in the plasma membrane or in the membranes of organelles. A key prerequisite for the functioning of ion-transporting proteins is their proper trafficking to the target membrane. The cornichon family of COPII cargo receptors is highly conserved in eukaryotic cells. By simultaneously binding their cargoes and a COPII-coat subunit, cornichons promote the incorporation of cargo proteins into the COPII vesicles and, consequently, the efficient trafficking of cargoes via the secretory pathway. In this review, we summarize current knowledge about cornichon proteins (CNIH/Erv14), with an emphasis on yeast and mammalian cornichons and their role in monovalent-cation homeostasis. Saccharomyces cerevisiae cornichon Erv14 serves as a cargo receptor of a large portion of plasma-membrane proteins, including several monovalent-cation transporters. By promoting the proper targeting of at least three housekeeping ion transport systems, Na+, K+/H+ antiporter Nha1, K+ importer Trk1 and K+ channel Tok1, Erv14 appears to play a complex role in the maintenance of alkali-metal-cation homeostasis. Despite their connection to serious human diseases, the repertoire of identified cargoes of mammalian cornichons is much more limited. The majority of current information is about the structure and functioning of CNIH2 and CNIH3 as auxiliary subunits of AMPAR multi-protein complexes. Based on their unique properties and easy genetic manipulation, we propose yeast cells to be a useful tool for uncovering a broader spectrum of human cornichons´ cargoes.

Authors: Rakusanova S , Cajka T
Published: August 2024

Metabolomics and lipidomics have emerged as tools in understanding the connections of metabolic syndrome (MetS) with cardiovascular diseases (CVD), type 1 and type 2 diabetes (T1D, T2D), and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). This review highlights the applications of these omics approaches in large-scale cohort studies, emphasizing their role in biomarker discovery and disease prediction. Integrating metabolomics and lipidomics has significantly advanced our understanding of MetS pathology by identifying unique metabolic signatures associated with disease progression. However, challenges such as standardizing analytical workflows, data interpretation, and biomarker validation remain critical for translating research findings into clinical practice. Future research should focus on optimizing these methodologies to enhance their clinical utility and address the global burden of MetS-related diseases.

Assessing supplementing strategies for beef cattle in a bale grazing system using grass hay during variable winter conditions
Authors: Undi Michael , Sedivec Kevin , Bachler Jessalyn
Published: August 2024

Introduction

Beef cattle in the Northern Great Plains of the United States of America are normally kept in open dry lot pens in winter. Practices such as bale grazing, swath grazing, stockpiling, and corn residue grazing, can be used to extend the grazing season and minimize dry lot use. Extending the grazing season has several advantages over dry lot use but arguably the most important benefit is cost savings due to lower labor and input costs. Strategies selected to supplement cattle in extended grazing systems should maintain cost savings while providing required nutrients to cattle. This study was conducted to evaluate supplementing strategies for beef cattle in a bale grazing system using grass hay during variable winter conditions. The study was conducted across variable winter conditions that are encountered in winters in the US Northern Great Plains.

Methods

The study extended over four years. Each year, non-lactating pregnant beef cows (n = 64, year 1; n = 80, year 2, 3, 4) were divided into eight groups of similar average body weight and randomly assigned to one of four bale grazing treatments as follows: a) bale grazing grass hay, b) bale grazing grass hay treated with a liquid supplement, c) bale grazing grass hay and alfalfa hay, and d) bale grazing grass hay and plus 1.8 kg corn DDGS/head/day. Animal performance was assessed from two-day body weights and body condition scores taken at the start and end of the study. Data analysis considered the fixed effects of treatment, year, and treatment x year interaction.

Results

Final BW tended (P = 0.09) to be greatest following corn DDGS supplementation and lowest when grass hay was offered. The treatment strategy x year interaction (P = 0.026) for ADG showed that corn DDGS supplementation resulted in positive ADG across the years regardless of environmental conditions. Liquid or alfalfa hay supplementation resulted in positive ADG when environmental conditions were favorable. Final BCS (P = 0.005) and BCS change (P = 0.004) were greater following corn DDGS supplementation, intermediate following alfalfa hay or liquid supplementation and lowest when grass hay was fed. Supplementation costs ranged from $1.33 to $1.90/head/day, the highest cost occurred with corn DDGS supplementation mainly due to cost of corn DDGS and labor required to deliver corn DDGS to cattle on pasture.

Discussion

Alfalfa hay or molasses-based liquids increased diet CP content but did not supply adequate energy in severely cold winters. Despite relatively higher supplement costs, high energy supplements such as corn DDGS may be required in severely cold winters where cattle require extra energy. Supplement selection should consider supplement effectiveness to meet animal nutrient requirements particularly in adverse winter conditions such as those encountered in the US Northern Great Plains.

Published: August 2024

The conventional real-time screening in organs-on-chips is limited to optical tracking of pre-tagged cells and biological agents. This work introduces an efficient biofabrication protocol to integrate tunable hydrogel electrodes into 3D bioprinted-on-chips. We established our method of fabricating cell-laden hydrogel-based microfluidic chips through digital light processing-based 3D bioprinting. Our conductive ink includes poly-(3,4-ethylene-dioxythiophene)-polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT: PSS) microparticles doped in polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA). We optimized the manufacturing process of PEDOT: PSS microparticles characterized our conductive ink for different 3D bioprinting parameters, geometries, and materials conditions. While the literature is limited to 0.5% w/v for PEDOT: PSS microparticle concentration, we increased their concentration to 5% w/v with superior biological responses. We measured the conductivity in the 3–15 m/m for a range of 0.5%–5% w/v microparticles, and we showed the effectiveness of 3D-printed electrodes for predicting cell responses when encapsulated in gelatin-methacryloyl (GelMA). Interestingly, a higher cellular activity was observed in the case of 5% w/v microparticles compared to 0.5% w/v microparticles. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements indicated significant differences in cell densities and spheroid sizes embedded in GelMA microtissues.
Movement pattern definitions for resistance training behavior measurement in diabetes
Authors: Brown Elise C. , Kilgore Lon J. , Pierce Kyle , Knox Allan , Haworth Joshua L.
Published: August 2024

Type 2 diabetes can result in debilitating vascular complications, and resistance training (RT) is an effective therapy for improving cardiovascular outcomes. However, only 10–30% of adults meet the public health guidance for RT. While current RT guidelines focus on targeting major muscle groups, guidance specific to simplified movement categorization may augment understanding of RT programming and improve uptake and outcomes. Current movement pattern definitions and descriptions lack clarity, accuracy, and consistency. This paper proposes movement definitions and descriptions to be used for RT intervention design and prescription, and includes the following categories: hip, knee, ankle, vertebral column, vertical push, horizontal push, vertical pull, and horizontal pull. These categories are intended to aid clinicians, researchers, and trainers in RT surveillance and RT intervention design for improving vascular complications in type 2 diabetes. Simplified RT program design using these categories may also facilitate greater RT program understanding and adherence for patients.

Introduction

Normalization of blood pressure in hypertensive patients is a major challenge for practitioners. Knowledge of the factors associated with normalization of blood pressure could help optimize management of these hypertensive patients. In this study, we analysed the factors predictive of this in a population of hypertensive patients followed as outpatients in a specialised department.

Patients and methods

Retrospective and analytic study (January 2021–May 2022) of adult hypertensive patients over 40 years old who had been receiving antihypertensive treatment as outpatients in the Cardiology Department of the Bouake Teaching Hospital for at least 6 months. We studied the epidemiological and clinical parameters as well as the factors involved in the normalization of blood pressure in this population. Statistical analysis was performed using SPPS version 26 software (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA).

Results

We collected 194 patients records (57.7% women). The mean age was 59.13 years [extremes: 40–89 years]. One hundred and nine (56.2%) patients had a low socioeconomic status and 151 (77.83%) had at least 2 cardiovascular risk factors. The mean systolic blood pressure on admission was 171.12 ± 22.38 mmHg [extremes: 140–259 mmHg] and the mean diastolic blood pressure was 97.98 ± 17.83 mmHg [extremes: 60–168 mmHg]. First-line treatment consisted of dual anti-hypertensive therapy (n = 133; 68.55%) and fixed combination (n = 152; 78.35%). Only 25.25% (n = 49) of patients achieved normalization of blood pressure with therapeutic adherence estimated at 37.62% (n = 73). In multivariate analysis adjusted for anti-hypertensive treatment adherence, age (OR = 1.03; 95% CI = 1.002–1.059; p = 0.039), absence of alcoholism (OR = 9.48; 95% CI = 2.13–42.11; p = 0.003), number of cardiovascular risk factors <2 (OR = 1.52; 95% CI = 1.06–2.16; p = 0.021), normalization of uricemia (OR = 1.05; 95% CI = 1.00–1.11; p = 0.039) and natraemia (OR = 1.01; 95% CI = 1.00–1.03; p = 0.021), dual therapy (OR = 0.40; 95% CI = 0.18–0.90; p = 0.027), change in treatment for optimization (OR = 4.22; 95% CI = 1.71–10.37; p = 0.002), intellectual education (OR = 10.40; 95% CI = 4.31–25.10; p < 0.001) and health insurance (OR = 0.09; 95% CI = 0.04–0.21; p < 0.001) were the main factors predicting normalization of blood pressure.

Conclusion

Control of cardiovascular risk factors and compliance with treatment are the main factors in normalizing blood pressure.
Endometriosis and aspirin: a systematic review
Authors: Yang Yi , Lai HanHong , Li ZhengJuan , Zhang Jun
Published: August 2024

Introduction

Endometriosis is delineated as a benign yet steroid-dependent disorder characterized by the ectopic presence of endometrial glandular and stromal cells outside the uterine cavity, affecting estimated 10%–15% of women of reproductive age, 20%–50% of all women with infertility and costing a great economic burden per-patient. Endometriosis exerts pervasive influence on multiple facets of female reproductive physiology. Given its characterization as a chronic inflammatory disorder, escalated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines were unequivocally recognized as well-established characteristics of endometriosis, which might attribute to mechanisms like retrograde menstruation, progesterone receptor resistance, and immune dysregulation. Therapeutic utilization of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like aspirin, analgesic agent for reducing pain, inflammation, and fever, could be holding promise in augmenting reproductive outcomes of endometriosis women. Therefore, the objective of this comprehensive review is to elucidate the intricate interplay between endometriosis and aspirin, both within the context of infertility and beyond. We meticulously explore potential pharmacological agents targeting endometriosis, which may concurrently optimize the efficacy of reproductive interventions, while also delving into the underlying mechanistic pathways linking endometriosis with inflammatory processes.

Methods

We conducted a comprehensive search in the data available in PubMed and the Web of Science using the terms ‘endometriosis’ and ‘aspirin’. Then analyzed the identified articles based on established inclusion and exclusion criteria independently by three reviewers.

Results

The survey of the chosen terms revealed 72 articles, only 10 of which were considered for review.

Discussion

Based on the research available currently, it is not substantial enough to address the conclusion that aspirin shall be an effective therapeutic choice for endometriosis, further studies are needed to elucidate the efficacy, safety profile, and optimal dosing regimens of aspirin in the context of endometriosis treatment.
Impact of anti-fracture medications on bone material and strength properties: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Sharma Shivani , Shankar Vijay , Rajender Singh , Mithal Ambrish , Rao Sudhaker D. , Chattopadhyay Naibedya
Published: August 2024

Background and aims

Reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and microarchitectural deterioration contribute to increased fracture risk. Although the effects of anti-fracture medications (AFMs) on BMD are well-documented, their impact on bone material properties (BMPs) remains poorly characterized. Accordingly, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the effects of AFMs on BMPs. Based on data availability, we further categorized AFMs into anti-resorptives, bisphosphonates alone, and strontium ranelate subgroups to perform additional analyses of BMPs in osteoporotic patients.

Methods

We did a comprehensive search of three databases, namely, PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, using various permutation combinations, and used Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software to analyze the extracted data.

Results

The 15 eligible studies (randomized and non-randomized) compared the following: (1) 301 AFM-treated patients with 225 on placebo; (2) 191 patients treated with anti-resorptives with 131 on placebo; (3) 86 bisphosphonate-treated patients with 66 on placebo; and (4) 84 strontium ranelate-treated patients with 70 on placebo. Pooled analysis showed that AFMs significantly decreased cortical bone crystallinity [standardized difference in means (SDM) −1.394] and collagen maturity [SDM −0.855], and collagen maturity in cancellous bone [SDM −0.631]. Additionally, anti-resorptives (bisphosphonates and denosumab) significantly increased crystallinity [SDM 0.387], mineral–matrix ratio [SDM 0.771], microhardness [SDM 0.858], and contact hardness [SDM 0.952] of cortical bone. Anti-resorptives increased mineral–matrix ratio [SDM 0.543] and microhardness [SDM 0.864] and decreased collagen maturity [SDM −0.539] in cancellous bone. Restricted analysis of only bisphosphonate-treated studies showed a significant decrease in collagen maturity [SDM −0.650] in cancellous bone and an increase in true hardness [SDM 1.277] in cortical bone. In strontium ranelate-treated patients, there was no difference in BMPs compared to placebo.

Conclusion

Collectively, our study suggests that AFMs improve bone quality, which explains their anti-fracture ability that is not fully accounted for by increased BMD in osteoporosis patients.
Application of data analysis techniques for characterization and estimation in electrical substations
Authors: Bustos-Brinez Oscar A. , Zambrano-Pinto Alvaro , Rosero Garcia Javier
Published: August 2024

With the continued growth of smart grids in electrical systems around the world, large amounts of data are continuously being generated and new opportunities are emerging to use this data in a wide variety of applications. In particular, the analysis of data from distribution systems (such as electrical substations) can lead to improvements in real-time monitoring and load forecasting. This paper presents a methodology for substation data analysis based on the application of a series of data analysis methods aimed at three main objectives: the characterization of demand by identifying different types of consumption, the statistical analysis of the distribution of consumption, and the identification of anomalous behavior. The methodology is tested on a data set of hourly measurements from substations located in various geographical regions of Colombia. The results of this methodology show that the analysis of substations data can effectively detect several common consumption patterns and also isolate anomalous ones, with approximately 4% of the substations being identified as outliers. Therefore, the proposed methodology could be a useful tool for decision-making processes of electricity distributors.

Published: August 2024

Introduction

Healthcare-associated infections are the main reported adverse event in healthcare, with significant economic costs that include those caused by medical malpractice claims. In Italy, there is a fault-based compensation system, but in this specific field, the burden of proof on the hospitals is particularly heavy. Hence, we aimed to verify the economic impact of the inclusion of experts in hospital infection surveillance into internal committees for claims assessment and to evaluate what would have been the economic impact of a mandatory no-fault system rather than the current system.

Materials and methods

We compared two 4-year periods (T1: 2015–2018 and T2: 2019–2022), investigating the medical malpractice claims related to healthcare-associated infections in a large tertiary public hospital in Florence, Italy. Decisions of the internal committee, evolutions of the claims after the decision, and conclusions of the claims were registered. No-fault system simulations were used to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the model.

Results

We observed a decrease in the number of claims after the implementation of infection prevention and control (IPC) experts into the committee (a 24% decrease in rejections and a 19% increase in admissions). We found a 6806.98 euros difference (not statistically significant) in compensations in T1 and T2. Moreover, our simulations found that a no-fault compensation system – if alternative to the traditional fault-based approach – could lead to gains or losses for the plaintiffs depending on the approach chosen. (We observed a 52% mean decrease in compensations with a 150000 euros maximal indemnity and a 134% mean increase with an indemnity tailored considering also life expectancy).

Discussion

Introducing experts in IPC into hospital committees for medico-legal claims management has proven to be cost-effective, offering a no-fault compensation system as an alternative to the traditional fault-based approach, supported by a properly evaluated maximal indemnity. Due to the limitations of our models, multicentric studies are recommended to verify our results.
