Relationship between body mass index, fundamental movement skills, and quality of life in primary school children
Authors: AL-Nemr Alaa , Reffat Shimaa
Published: January 2024

Background: Obesity in children is a serious public health problem, affecting their physical health and quality of life. Fundamental movement skills (FMS) have been suggested to play an important role in reducing the risk of obesity in primary school children and improving their health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Objectives: This study aims to investigate the relationship between body mass index (BMI), FMS, and HRQoL in primary school children. Methods: 193 primary school children (81 boys, 112 girls) aged 6 to 8 years were included in this cross-sectional study. Weight and height, FMS, and HRQoL were measured using BMI percentiles, the Test of Gross Motor Development, Second Edition (TGMD-2) including the object control, locomotor subtests and the total gross motor quotient, and the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQLTM) respectively. Results: There was a negative significant correlation between BMI and gross motor quotient, and between BMI and the locomotor subscale of the TGMD. There was also a negative significant correlation between BMI and the PedsQL scale. There was a positive significant correlation between TGMD and PedsQoL scales. According to linear regression analysis, BMI significantly predicted TGMD gross motor quotient and PedsQL total score. In addition, the TGMD gross motor quotient significantly predicted the total PedsQL score. Conclusion: Mastery of FMS might be an important factor in avoiding obesity and improving HRQoL in primary school children.

Authors: Jandová Soňa , Bartizalova Denisa
Published: January 2024

The aim of the study was to evaluate the state of the musculoskeletal system of selected cyclists and to propose appropriate compensatory exercises, the effects of which were verified in practice. Twenty-eight MTB cyclists (men) participated in the study. They were divided into experimental (EXP) and control (CONT) groups. The Janda test, including the scaling method, was used to diagnose the condition of the cyclists' musculoskeletal system. The cyclists were tested twice after six weeks, when the experimental group was doing compensatory exercises twice a week. The results of the first and second tests were compared. The results showed a reduction in muscle mass in the arcuate neck flexion and trunk flexion tests. The results of the shortened muscle group tests showed shortening of the neck muscles and the upper part of the trapezius muscle in all the cyclists. The paravertebral back muscles and the pectoralis major muscle were shortened in 93% of the cyclists. 86% of the cyclists had shortened knee flexors and hip flexors. In the EXP, there was a significant improvement in the strength of the weakened muscle groups (p<0.001) and a significant increase in the extent of the shortened muscle groups (p=0.001) after the intervention. No significant changes were found in the CONT. After the intervention programme, movement stereotypes improved significantly in the EXP group compared to the CONT group. Cyclists should regularly incorporate compensatory exercises into their current training in order to prevent overuse injuries, correct posture and eliminate back pain.

Authors: Borecka-Biernat Danuta
Published: January 2024

The study aimed to search for a family aetiology of strategies for adolescents in situations of social conflict inherent in the pattern of parental response to situations of social conflict. The research used the Questionnaire on Coping Strategies of Parents in Situations of Social Conflict (in Polish – KSRwSK) by D. Borecka-Biernat, and the Questionnaire for the Study of Coping Strategies of Adolescents in Situations of Social Conflict (in Polish – KSMK) by D. Borecka-Biernat. Empirical research was conducted in junior high schools. They included 893 adolescents (468 girls and 425 boys) aged 13–15. The research analysis showed that the mother and Father, perceived as using destructive and constructive strategies in social conflict, contribute to modelling a process involving destructive and constructive behaviour used in cases of social conflict.

Introduction: Estimation of forensic age has gained in importance, whether for supplementary judgment or criminal responsibility. Our study reports the association between the civil age and the degree of edification of the lower third molar in Cameroon. Materials and method: We conducted a descriptive and retrospective cross-sectional study in three private imaging centers in two cities in Cameroon over a period of 7 months, from November 2021 to May 2022, over the period from 2017 to 2020, i.e. 4 years. Included were all radiographic records of individuals 10 to 25 years old. The ophthalmographic estimation was made according to the Demirjian stages. Using Epi info 7 software, data analyses were performed. The significance threshold was set at 5%. Results: A total of 419 were included. The majority of individuals in our sample were male (53%) with a sex-ratio of 1.13. The average civil age was 16.7 ± 4.4 years. The mean age of patients increased with the level of tooth edification, whether tooth 48 or 38. Individuals who constituted Demirjian stage H where predominant, 31% for the 48 and 29% for the 38. For tooth 48 they were at least 18.3 years for men and 18.6 years for women while for the 38, the minimum age for this stage was 18.3 years for men and 19 years for women. Conclusion: Our study showed that the preponderant stage of construction was stage H with a minimum age corresponding to criminal majority in Cameroon.

Authors: V Kulkarni , C Misra , S Kumar
Published: January 2024

Traumatic orbital injuries following maxillofacial trauma occur significantly with the most common etiology being road traffic accidents. Despite natural protective anatomy and reflexes of the eye the injuries to the orbital following facial fractures have a higher degree of vulnerability. The injury so sustained leads to greater morbidity, which may be due to loss of vision. Cases of traumatic amaurosis is seldom reported in the literature. The present article presents a case of closed head injury with pan-facial trauma associated with symptomatic traumatic amaurosis of the left orbit which was managed by conventional open reduction and internal fixation followed by orbital evisceration.

Distribución espacial de la mortalidad por COVID-19 y su asociación con condiciones sociodemográficas en Antioquia-Colombia
Authors: Caicedo-Velásquez Beatriz , Cifuentes-Ríos Ana María
Published: January 2024

Antioquia ha evidenciado amplias variaciones subregionales y municipales en el riesgo de mortalidad por COVID-19. Sin embargo, se desconocen factores relevantes para explicar el patrón geográfico de la mortalidad, además de las condiciones individuales. Objetivo: explorar la posible influencia de características municipales sobre el riesgo de mortalidad por COVID-19 en Antioquia ajustando por condiciones individuales. Metodología: se utilizó un estudio analítico de datos secundarios, transversal, utilizando datos de todos los casos positivos de COVID-19 identificados entre el 9 marzo de 2020 y el 29 de octubre de 2021 en Antioquia, Colombia. Se ajustó un modelo logístico multinivel para analizar la asociación entre mortalidad por COVID-19 y predictores socioeconómicos y demográficos de los municipios, independiente de edad, sexo y etnia. Resultados: después de controlar por variables-individuales, 12 de las 16 variables del nivel municipal se mostraron independientemente asociadas a la mortalidad por COVID-1. Los resultados, además, sugieren un gradiente negativo de la mortalidad por COVID-19 donde municipios con precarias condiciones mostraron mayores riesgos. Conclusiones: estos resultados sugieren la necesidad de tener en cuenta no solo el entorno inmediato, sino también el entorno más amplio al que pertenecen las personas para prevenir la propagación del virus y sus graves consecuencias

Resultados: se evidencia baja producción investigativa, dilución de su formación en los planes de estudio, desconocimiento de lineamientos internacionales, inexistencia de lineamientos nacionales y la preocupante situación que enfrenta el desarrollo de la educación para la salud en emergencias y desastres. Conclusiones: existen vacíos en la consolidación posicionamiento de la educación para la salud en gestión del riesgo en emergencias y desastres en Colombia por la ausencia de estándares básicos de competencias claros.
LACK OF SIZE-ASSORTATIVE MATING IN A WIDESPREAD TREEFROG: PSEUDACRIS CRUCIFER IN IOWA
Authors: Moran Maddox , La Rosa Emily , Hughes Daniel
Published: January 2024

The Spring Peeper (Pseudacris crucifer) is a small treefrog native to much of the Central and Eastern USA. Here, we tested if Spring Peepers exhibit size-assortative mating—non-random mate pairings based on body size—from a population in eastern Iowa. We captured 75 amplecting pairs of Spring Peepers during the 2021 breeding season, measured their body sizes, and marked them for future recognition. We found that while sexual-size dimorphism exists between males and females, there was no evidence for size-assortative mating among amplectant pairs. Our study contributes to other recent work indicating that size-assortative mating is rare among most anurans, and that previous findings of this phenomenon in frogs should be interpreted with caution.
International Justice in Social Doctrines of the Orthodox Church
Authors: Petrunin Vladimir
Published: January 2024

The article considers international justice as a political issue in social doctrines of the Orthodox Church. The author focuses on the social doctrines of the Patriarchate of Constantinople and the Russian Orthodox Church and on the social-political provisions of the documents adopted by the Council of Crete (2016). Social doctrines of the Orthodox Church mention some issues that can be attributed to the discursive field of political theology. Thus, international justice is a part of the Orthodox Church concept of contemporary international relations and global human challenges. Such social doctrines state the impossibility of achieving international justice due to the sinful depravity of human nature. This human sinfulness determines all types of global discrimination not only against individuals or social groups (religious, racial, national, gender, etc.), but also against peoples and states. In social doctrines, war is defined as an unacceptable way to solve world problems. Orthodox churches call for fair international relations based on Christian values, thereby criticizing the existing world order based on the ideology of liberal globalism and secularism. Documents of the Council of Crete directly state that true peace (international justice) is possible only after the universal triumph of Christian principles. In conclusion, the author summarizes the features of the Orthodox Church approach to international justice and political theology.
Katechon: On the Political and Theological Foundations of International Justice
Authors: Popov Dmitry
Published: January 2024

The paper examines the problems of international justice in its relation to one of the most significant concepts of Christian theology — the katechon. The main hypothesis of the article is that the katechon in international relations manifests itself as a balancing effect of a specific spatial order, expressed in the containment/transgression of forces aimed at the demarcation of “red lines”, and contributes to the displacement of the horizon for catastrophic events. In order to substantiate this hypothesis, a link has been drawn between the concept of “red lines” and the historically established international legal borders separating spheres of influence in world affairs and invariably expressing the idea of a threshold that separates order from chaos, whose transgression is perceived as a collapse of the established equilibrium. The “red lines” are related to the idea of international justice in three ways: as fixed legal boundaries (the nomos of the Earth); as a balance of forces and capabilities determined by the parties; and as rules for transgressing boundaries, which lead to the notion of just war. The analysis of the reasons for a just war leads to a katechonic threshold that can be crossed in the perspective of the loss of ideas of a “just enemy”, a just cause of war, a just war on both sides and the reduction of a law of war to an act of aggression, to a reactive response to crimes against humanity and the identification of the aggressor as a criminal. This model of just war entails the demonization of the enemy and translates the conflict into the Armageddon paradigm, which makes it possible to establish an essential link between the issues of war, international justice and katechon. The katechon, studied in the article on the basis of theological interpretations as an Empire (in particular, a Christian empire), righteousness, the power of divine grace, as well as the need to preach the Gospel around the world, appears in the political-theological paradigm as a factor restraining the forces of destruction. The restraint of the pure will to destroy allows us to see that the katechon fulfils not only an agonistic but also a liturgical function, the purpose of which is to maintain a continuous link between the content of culture, which is centered on the idea of humanity, and the actions of the actors in international relations. It is the preservation of humanity, based on the highest cultural values, that is the final “red line”, thanks to the inviolability of which international justice is preserved and the coming of the Judgment Day is restrained.

War and Church. From the Peace of Westphalia to the Peace of Versailles by Carl Schmitt and Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy
Authors: Borshch Irina
Published: January 2024

Historically, religious institutions have often played some role in determining the criteria for international justice during the war and in the post-war periods. The article aims to reflect theoretically on this phenomenon, drawing on the political theology of C. Schmitt (1888-1985) and the historical sociology of E. Rosenstock-Huessy (1888-1973). Both were prominent lawyers in Weimar Germany, but their paths diverged dramatically in 1933. They shared a view of the modern state as a restrainer of war. They also focused on the church and its role in stabilizing the new international order of the Westphalian era. The Westphalian approach to international justice rested on the idea of religious pluralism in terms of a plurality of sovereign states. It was important for Schmitt that the Roman Catholic Church (to which he belonged) recognized sovereign states and their right to declare war and make peace, even if it retained autonomy of doctrinal judgment and independent government. Unlike Schmitt, Rosenstock-Huessy believed that the main role in resolving religious conflicts was played not so much by the arrangements of sovereign states, but by the new organization of society that emerged as a result of the Reformation. This organization consisted of new social forms: the monarch-legislator, the civil servant, the civil authority, and the civil population. Rosenstock saw the separation of the military from the civil service as a kind of continental system of checks and balances that promoted international justice by limiting violence. After a historical and theoretical overview, the paper will analyze why the cultural role of ecclesiastical institutions is still important. Finally, it will be shown that the perspectives of political theology and historical sociology described above form a multi-confessional dialogue. The dialogical reflection on church and politics can be a contribution to the debate on international justice.
cDNA Exome Capture v1.0.1 v1
Authors: Biosciences Parse , Rebboah Elisabeth
Published: January 2024

This protocol describes a modified version of the Parse Biosciences Gene Capture protocol for full-length cDNA meant for both Illumina short read and Oxford Nanopore long read library prep and sequencing. We use Twist Biosciences exome panels to enrich for non-intronic reads for more meaningful long-read data. Each section matches the original protocol but with our modifications. Please see the attachment for the original Parse Biosciences protocol. The main deviations from the original Parse Biosciences protocol are 1. the use of cDNA amplification reagents instead of the amplification reagents included in the Gene Capture kit, and 2. modification of SPRI bead ratio from 1.8x to 0.8x. We perform this protocol on cDNA generated for a subset of 13,000 barcoded cells or nuclei from the WT or WT Mega kits. The product of this protocol is full-length, barcoded cDNA that excludes intron-only fragments. Each molecule should have a cell/nuclei barcode, UMI, and some fraction overlapping a region found in the Twist human or mouse exome panel. Given an input of 500 ng full-length, barcoded cDNA from the end of Section 2 (WT / WT Mega protocol), there should be plenty of captured cDNA (> 1 ug). In our experience, an input as low as 200 ng resulted in 700 ng captured cDNA. The first part of the protocol, Section 1, describes setting up hybridization repetitive sequence blockers and of the actual panel, which runs overnight. Section 2 describes capture of the hybridized molecules to streptavidin beads and amplification of the captured product. Section 2 section uses cDNA amplification reagents from the WT / WT Mega kits.
CompDuplex: Accurate detection of somatic mutations by duplex-seq with comprehensive genome coverage v1
Authors: Niu Muchun
Published: January 2024

Somatic mutations continuously accumulate in the human genome, posing vulnerabilities towards aging and increased risk of various diseases. However, accurate detection of somatic mutations at the whole genome scale is still challenging. By tagging and independently sequencing the two complementary strands of DNA, the recent development of duplex-sequencing methods has greatly improved the detection accuracy, however, the limited genome coverage and the compromised compatibility with existing sequencing platforms have constrained the broad applications of these methods. To overcome these technical challenges, here we developed a duplex sequencing method with comprehensive genome coverage, which we refer to as CompDuplex-seq. The streamlined chemistry of CompDuplex assay allows efficient generation of libraries readily compatible with standard Illumina 2x150 paired-end sequencing. In addition, we validated the accuracy of somatic mutation calling and comprehensive genome coverage of CompDuplex by profiling a single-cell expanded clone. To summarize, CompDuplex chemistry supports genome-wide coverage while maintaining high accuracy, which we believe will facilitate the whole genome characterization of somatic mosaicism in various biological systems.
Some Approaches to the Formation of Ideas about Time in Preschool Children with Speech Impairments
Authors: Antonova E.E.
Published: January 2024

Being originally a philosophical category, the concept of time plays an important role in human activity. The planning, organization, and control of activities is based on the time aspect. Time is the basis of the formation of the psyche, is inextricably linked with communication. The formation of ideas about time in preschool age is extremely difficult due to the fact that the category of time is abstract. Preschool children with special educational needs also have significant difficulties in assimilating time representations. The basis for the development of ideas about the time of children of this group is a qualitative purposeful diagnosis, the results of which determine the main direction and differentiated content of correctional and developmental work. The article presents blocks of tasks for the study and formation of time representations in preschoolers with speech development disorders. Examples of the use of individual calendars for the formation of ideas about parts of the day, days of the week, times and months of the year when working with preschool children enrolled in an Adaptive educational program for children with severe speech disorders are given.

Performance prediction of industrial robot harmonic reducer via feature transfer and Gaussian process regression
Authors: Hu Mantang , Wang Guofeng , Cao Zenghuan
Published: January 2024

This paper addresses the problem of identifying faults in the harmonic reducers of industrial robots by analysing their vibration signals. In order to solve the problem of obtaining fault data and rotation error from harmonic reducers in service, an accuracy performance prediction method
based on transfer learning and Gaussian process regression (GPR) is proposed. The Euclidean distance between the spectral sequence of each component is proposed as the fitness index to optimise the transition bandwidth of the filter banks. The optimised empirical wavelet transform (OEWT) is
used for signal decomposition to obtain sensitive frequency bands. A feature transfer method based on semi-supervised transfer component analysis (SSTCA) is proposed to achieve target domain feature transfer under missing data conditions. A prediction model based on GPR is established using
the mapped features to predict the performance and accuracy of the harmonic reducer. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through model evaluation indicators and degradation experiments.
Development of the Civil Solidarity Pact in French Law against the Comparative Background of European Countries
Authors: Mozgiel-Wiecha Kinga
Published: January 2024

The concept of a relationship between two people has begun to change over the years in French legislation. In the 1990s, more and more European countries responded with appropriate regulations to the demands of same-sex couples who wanted to enter into formal and legally accepted unions. At that time, French legislation indicated that both the concept of marriage and family were reserved for heterosexual couples. However, the need to legalize same-sex unions was noted, and the creation of the civil solidarity pact (Pacte civil de solidarité, PACS) in 1999 was a response to social needs. It allowed the persons who entered into it to inherit from each other and to be jointly responsible for their debts. The introduction of the civil solidarity pact has also raised the question of what a relationship between two people is: a contract or a form of institution.
Administrative Fines for Excessive Delays in Fulfilling Monetary Obligations as an Instrument to Combat Economic Crisis
Authors: Nowakowska Anna
Published: January 2024

The increasing phenomenon of delayed payment of obligations and the use of extended payment terms in contracts prompted the legislator to seek more radical solutions than those stipulated in the Act on countering excessive delays in commercial transactions, in the form of private law instruments aimed at reducing payment backlogs. Since 2020, this goal has been pursued through the imposition of administrative fines for excessive delays in fulfilling monetary obligations by the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection. The passage of 3.5 years since the enactment of the amendment to the law allows for an assessment of the functioning of the new regulation. The purpose of the article was to determine whether the legal regulation of administrative fines is effective, i.e. whether it has contributed to reducing payment backlogs and, therefore, whether it can be considered one of the effective methods for combating the economic crisis. The research problem was explained based on the analysis of statistical data concerning the timeliness of financial commitments by entrepreneurs, the analysis of decisions issued by the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection, and information obtained from entrepreneurs. These studies led to the conclusion that the described regulation did not contribute to reducing payment backlogs; however, an improvement in this situation can be expected when proceedings before the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection can be conducted based on the amended provisions in 2022. It does not seem possible, though, for administrative fines for excessive delays in fulfilling monetary obligations to be an effective tool for combating an economic crisis.
The Patient’s Right to Personal Contact with Visitors (Visitation Privilege) and the Issue of Patient’s Rights Limitations
Authors: Ruczkowski Piotr
Published: January 2024

The article analyzes the issue of the patient’s right to personal contact with others (so-called visitation privilege), and particular attention is paid to permissible limitations of this right, including a ban on visitors. Under Article 5 of the Act on patient’s rights and Patient’s Rights Ombudsman, a head of any entity providing health care services or a physician authorized by him/her may limit the patient’s right to personal contact with other persons in the event of an epidemic threat in order to safeguard the health safety of patients. The organizational capacities of a health care provider must also be taken into consideration. The literal meaning of the above provision implies that only the limitations on visitation privileges may be introduced but not an absolute ban on visitors. However, as it seems, in the case of a significant threat to the life and health of visitors, patients or staff of a health care provider, it may be allowed to ban any visits, also under separate regulations.
The Social Reaction to the Image of the Legal Community Presented in the Para-Documentary “Caste”
Authors: Stefaniuk Małgorzata E.
Published: January 2024

The article is of a scientific and research nature. It addresses the problem of social reaction to the image of the legal community, which was presented in the para-documentary titled Caste (in Polish: Kasta). The series aroused social emotions, was noticed by viewers and caused many comments, which is worth investigating. The main thesis of the study is based on the assumption that the television broadcast could have influenced the strengthening of the negative image of lawyers in Polish society, which can be examined by analyzing the comments of Internet users posted online, including social media. Based on the analysis carried out on specific research material – the comments from Internet users, it turned out that the supporters of the para-documentary, convinced that it presents a true picture of the Polish justice system, showed a higher level of social emotions than its opponents. There were few comments directly defending members of legal professionals. The form and manner of communication were criticized more than the general negative image of the Polish judiciary. Although the conducted qualitative research covers one country, it shows the general reaction of ordinary people to the image of the legal professionals presented in a specific television production, which has become an inspiration for a debate on the Internet focusing on the condition of the Polish justice system.
The Dichotomy of Perception of Vehicle Registration Plate Numbers in Light of the Current Definition of Personal Data
Authors: Zaborska Sylwia
Published: January 2024

Nowadays we use vehicle registration plate numbers increasingly frequently, e.g. for parking in paid parking zones or when using recordings from private on-board cameras. The processing of registration numbers can have a significant impact on the rights and freedoms of every citizen; therefore, it is essential to unambiguously determine whether vehicle registration plate numbers ought to be classified as personal data. This issue is varyingly interpreted by the case law of Polish courts and by the President of the Office for Personal Data Protection. This debate boils down to the question of whether we are able to identify a given individual based solely on a vehicle registration plate number. Administrative courts, as a rule, state that registration plates do not constitute personal data due to the fact that registration numbers identify a vehicle, not an individual. However, the President of the Office for Personal Data Protection is of a contrasting opinion, believing that indirect identification allows us to determine the owner of a vehicle based solely on the registration plate number.

The aim of the article is to present the instruments intended to ensure the correct preparation and conduct of tenders and other procurement procedures in the light of criminal law provisions. The author analyzes the current content of the provision of Article 305 of the Penal Code, penalizing behavior such as obstructing or disrupting tender procedures, especially in the context of issues relating to interpretation of the individual parts of these acts, which in turn had an undoubted impact on the provision’s application in practice, when it comes to the detection and prosecution of this type of crimes. In addition, the author discusses the changes in the provisions of Article 305 of the Penal Code, which took place in 2023, taking into account in particular the motives behind them, as well as the expectations regarding the effective and efficient application of this provision in the future.

Published: January 2024

Bu çalışmada, Kahramanmaraş ilinde satışa sunulan dökme ve ambalajlı pul kırmızıbiberlerin aflatoksin açısından gıda güvenlikleri araştırılmıştır. Kırmızıbiberlerdeki aflatoksin miktarları HPLC cihazı ile belirlenmiştir. Dökme örneklerin toplam aflatoksin ve aflatoksin B1 içerikleri sırasıyla 2.75±0.02-71.10±0.64 ve 0.26±0.01-53.01±0.57 µg kg-1, ambalajlı örneklerde ise 0-42.01±0.36 ve 0-36.01±0.27 µg/kg aralıklarında bulunmuştur. Yasal sınırlar göz önünde bulundurulduğunda, dökme tipi örneklerin %42’si en çok 10 µg kg-1 toplam aflatoksin sınırı ve %70’i en çok 5 µg kg-1 aflatoksin B1 sınırı içerisinde bulunduğu belirlenmiştir. Ambalajlı örneklerin ise sırasıyla %68’i ve %62’i bu sınırın içerisindedir. Örneklerin toplam aflatoksin veya aflatoksin B1 içeriklerinin en az birinin yasal sınırı aşması baz alındığında, dökme örneklerin %60’nın, ambalajlı örnekleri ise %36’nın sınır dışı olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Tüm örneklerin (dökme ve ambalajlı) aflatoksin düzey dağılımları için veriler belirli aralıklarda gruplandırılmıştır. Toplam aflatoksin içeriği bakımından yasal sınırı yaklaşık 10 katına kadar aşan grupta dökme kırmızıbiber örneklerine rastlanılmıştır. Çalışmadaki veriler, baharatlık kırmızıbiberlerin hasat, üretim veya satış aşamalarında yanlış uygulamaların yapıldığının bir göstergesidir. Satış şeklinin de önemli olduğu çalışmadan çıkarılacak diğer bir sonuçtur.
Workplace Violence in Healthcare Service
Authors: Hairunisa Nany
Published: January 2024

Violence in the workplace is an act or threat of violence against workers, both inside and outside the workplace, ranging from insults, threats, intimidation, and physical assault to murder. Although violence in the workplace has become a global concern, the true extent of this problem is still underreported due to low awareness and lack of awareness of the issues within the body. Therefore, if violence in the workplace is not addressed, especially in the health sector, it will become a global phenomenon that will disrupt the peace and stability of the working community and pose a risk to the health and welfare of society. Therefore, this review aims to identify the risk factors and impacts of workplace violence in health care and demonstrate the collaborative efforts needed to support managing and preventing violence in the workplace.

Prevention of Disability in Leprosy
Authors: Thiodorus Robert , Rusyati Luh Made Mas , Sadeli Marrietta Sugiarti
Published: January 2024

Leprosy, a chronic granulomatous infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium Leprae, presents a complex challenge with profound social, physical, and economic implications. The burden of leprosy is a persistent concern in many developing countries, despite substantial control efforts. The World Health Organization (WHO) initiated the "Global Leprosy Strategy 2016-2020" to combat this issue, focusing on reducing children diagnosed with leprosy, eliminating visible deformities, and enacting anti-discrimination laws. Disability in leprosy is multifaceted and preventing disability in leprosy is a critical endeavor, such as prophylaxis, early diagnosis, and comprehensive care strategies. Vaccination with the BCG vaccine provides moderate protection, and combining it with single-dose rifampicin (SDR) can enhance its effectiveness, particularly for lepromatous cases with delayed diagnoses. Improved training for healthcare providers can facilitate early detection, reducing the risk of disability. After effective leprosy treatment, longterm morbidity remains a concern. Continued education of healthcare workers and communities is pivotal in preventing damage to hands, feet, and eyes, especially in cases of peripheral neuropathy. Disability progression is a substantial risk, highlighting the need for ongoing medical assessments, even post-MDT treatment. Restructuring primary care services to ensure quality post-treatment care is essential. Stigma remains a significant obstacle in leprosy prevention. Community awareness and stigma reduction can motivate individuals to seek treatment. Epidemiological patterns transmission within households, play a crucial role in identifying new cases. Routine examinations of household contacts of leprosy patients can expedite early diagnosis. Nutrition also plays a role in leprosy prevention. Ensuring access to nutritious food is critical to reducing the risk of developing the disease. In conclusion, the prevention of disability in leprosy is a multifaceted endeavor that demands comprehensive strategies, early intervention, awareness, and community engagement. Addressing this issue is vital for improving the quality of life for individuals affected by leprosy and for achieving a leprosy-free world.

Constitutional determinants of transitional justice after the decline of the rule of law in the light of European standards: the issue of the status of judges
Authors: Górski Marcin
Published: January 2024

Celem artykułu było ustalenie parametrów wymierzania sprawiedliwości okresu przejściowego w aspekcie sprawiedliwości dyskwalifikacyjnej, które wynikają z Europejskiej Konwencji Praw Człowieka i stanowią obecnie standard wykładni Konwencji, ustalony w orzecznictwie Europejskiego Trybunału Praw Człowieka. Określone w ten sposób parametry zostały zastosowane do problemu weryfikacji statusu osób, które uzyskały stanowiska sędziowskie w wyniku procedur nominacyjnych z udziałem tzw. neo-KRS. Dokonano oceny projektów legislacyjnych, przedstawionych polskiemu ustawodawcy. Ustalono, że jedynie projekt przygotowany przez Stowarzyszenie Sędziów Polskich Iustitia realizuje ambicje wymierzenia sprawiedliwości dyskwalifikacyjnej. Przeprowadzono krytyczną analizę tego projektu, wskazując w rezultacie, że należy go ocenić ogólnie pozytywnie, z pewnymi zastrzeżeniami odnoszącymi się przede wszystkim do problemu braku sądowej kontroli nad postulowaną weryfikacją oraz do wątpliwości na tle zasady proporcjonalności. Do przeprowadzenia analizy wykorzystano metodę formalno-dogmatyczną oraz analizę orzecznictwa (zwłaszcza ETPC).
Judicial dialogue between the Constitutional Court and the Court of Justice of the EU – cooperation or confrontation?
Authors: Haczkowska Monika
Published: January 2024

Dialog orzeczniczy między Trybunałem Konstytucyjnym a Trybunałem Sprawiedliwości kształtował się ponad 20 lat. Początkowo, jeszcze przed akcesją Polski do UE, przybrał formę dokonywania wykładni przyjaznej integracji europejskiej i prawu unijnemu. Następnie przybierał różne formy konstytucyjnej rozmowy, w tym współpracy z Trybunałem Sprawiedliwości
w ramach pytań prejudycjalnych. Dialog odbywał się z poszanowaniem pozycji ustrojowych i wzajemnych jurysdykcji oraz respektowaniem zasady lojalnej współpracy i pierwszeństwa prawa unijnego. W orzecznictwie Trybunału Konstytucyjnego po 2020 roku widoczne jest odejście od dialogu na rzecz postawy konfrontacyjnej. Trybunał Konstytucyjny wybrał bowiem „kolizyjny kurs” w dialogu z Trybunałem Sprawiedliwości UE. Wydaje się, że pożądanym rozwiązaniem jest poszukiwanie wspólnego mianownika w postaci wspólnych wartości konstytucyjnych, które stanowią podstawę aksjologii systemów prawnych państw członkowskich oraz fundament funkcjonowania UE. Prawo UE opiera się bowiem na tradycjach konstytucyjnych państw członkowskich. Wspólne wartości konstytucyjne państw członkowskich powinny stanowić podstawę poszukiwania kompromisu, niwelowania napięć, które w organizacji ponadnarodowej o tak wielowarstwowej strukturze, jaką jest Unia Europejska, są nieuniknione. Celem publikacji jest przedstawienie procesu kształtowania się dialogu orzeczniczego między Trybunałem Konstytucyjnym a Trybunałem Sprawiedliwości UE. W niniejszej publikacji zastosowano metodę prawno-dogmatyczną oraz metodę historyczno-prawną.
The genesis of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland of April 2, 1997
Authors: Leszczyński Paweł
Published: January 2024

Celem niniejszego artykułu jest syntetyczne przedstawienie okoliczności towarzyszących procesowi ustrojotwórczemu w Polsce, przechodzącej transformację społeczno-ekonomiczną
oraz ustrojową od 1989 roku. Szczególny akcent został położony na opis uwarunkowań politycznych oraz głównych zagadnień problemowych, związanych z postulowanym ustrojem Polski, w okresie prac Komisji Konstytucyjnej Zgromadzenia Narodowego, złożonej z 46 posłów Sejmu II kadencji i 10 senatorów Senatu III kadencji lat 1993–1997. Badania, służące powstaniu tego artykułu, zostały przeprowadzone dzięki zastosowaniu metod historyczno-prawnej, formalnej oraz analizy literatury naukowej, przedmiotowo związanej z tematem artykułu. W wyniku zastosowanych metod badawczych ukazano złożoność procesu ustrojotwórczego w Polsce połowy lat dziewięćdziesiątych XX wieku, czyli w państwie, w którym uchwalenie nowej konstytucji było niezbędne nie tylko ze względów aksjologicznych, ale też z uwagi na dążenia do integracji z Unią Europejską oraz NATO. Istotny paradoks polegał jednak na tym, że Polska jako pierwsze państwo rozpoczęła proces odchodzenia od komunizmu, a jako – prawie – ostatnie z państw położonych dotąd za „żelazną kurtyną” przyjęła nową konstytucję. „Bieżąco-polityczne” przyczyny takiego stanu rzeczy zostały przedstawione w poniższym artykule.

The work summarizes the results of testing the technology for preparing a bifunctional cobalt catalyst for the synthesis of hydrocarbons from CO and H2, obtained by extruding a mixture of Co-Al2O3 /SiO2 catalyst powders and HZSM-5 zeolite with a binder – boehmite in industrial conditions (2 batches of 50 kg each were prepared). The catalyst technology was implemented on the equipment of Ishimbay Specialized Chemical Catalyst Plant LLC. The obtained industrial samples of the catalyst were characterized by XRF, TPR H2, DTG, and tested in the synthesis of hydrocarbons from CO and H2 at a temperature of 250 °C, a pressure of 2.0 MPa, GHSV 1000 h–1. It has been shown that the implementation of the technology of a bifunctional cobalt catalyst for the production of low pour point diesel fuel in industrial conditions makes it possible to reproduce the characteristics of the catalyst obtained in laboratory conditions. The technology for producing the catalyst can be recommended for the production of industrial batches. It was determined that changes in the heat treatment conditions of the catalyst, as well as the presence/absence of a peptizer and pore former do not lead to a significant decrease in the productivity of C5+ hydrocarbons. The content

of the diesel fraction in C5+ products obtained from industrial samples of the catalyst remains at the level of the value obtained from the laboratory sample of the catalyst. At the same time, the low-temperature properties of diesel fuel obtained using all catalyst samples have similar values. Using an industrial sample synthesized without the use of a peptizing agent and a pore-forming component, the best lowtemperature properties of diesel fuel were achieved – the cloud point and fluid loss point were minus 16 and minus 24, respectively.
