Keberadaan lahan bagi kehidupan manusia adalah satu kesatuan utuh dan tidak dapat dipisahkan. Lahan atau tanah adalah kebutuhan pokok bagi manusia dalam kehidupan di dunia. Kedekatan hubungan manusia dengan wilayah, menjadikan wilayah sebagai harta yang sangat berharga bagi kehidupan manusia. Untuk meningkatkan kualitas hidup manusia, pembangunan merupakan sebuah kewajiban. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan kebijakan dan peraturan yang adil untuk mewujudkan pembangunan. Dalam melaksanakan pembangunan, pemerintah memerlukan tanah untuk lokasi kegiatan proyek yang akan dibangun. Pada perkembangannya, pemerintah telah mengeluarkan berbagai kebijakan dalam rangka pengadaan tanah untuk kepentingan pembangunan. Pengadaan tanah untuk kepentingan umum bertujuan menyediakan tanah bagi pelaksanaan pembangunan guna meningkatkan kesejahteraan dan kemakmuran bangsa, negara, dan masyarakat dengan tetap menjamin kepentingan hukum pihak yang berhak. Kegiatan pengadaan tanah perlu dilakukan secara cepat, tepat, dan terbuka dengan tetap memberikan perhatian dan prinsip untuk menunjukkan penghormatan terhadap hukum atas tanah kepada masyarakat. Pengadaan tanah adalah kegiatan untuk mendapatkan tanah dengan cara memberikan ganti rugi kepada masyarakat dan/atau badan hukum yang menyerahkan tanah, bangunan, maupun benda-benda yang berkaitan dengan pencabutan hak atas bangunan. Dengan demikian, kebijakan pengadaan tanah telah memenuhi kriteria keadilan prosedural. Pengadaan tanah dianggap selesai dengan telah diterimanya ganti kerugian oleh pihak yang terdampak.
Impact of Teacher Empathy and Motivation on Student Academic Achievement: Mediated by Sense of School Belongingness
Authors: Sarwer Sidra , Tariq Asma , Abid Muhammad Naseem
Published: July 2024

This quantitative study investigates the influence of teacher empathy and motivation on student academic achievement, with a focus on the mediating role of students' sense of school belongingness in secondary schools in Punjab, Pakistan. The research employs a survey methodology, gathering data from 778 secondary school teachers to explore how these teacher traits directly impact student outcomes and how the school environment potentially mediates such effects. Results from structural model analysis using Smart-PLS4 indicate that teacher empathy and motivation directly enhance student academic achievement. However, when mediated by the sense of school belongingness, the effects, while still positive, appear less potent. As a result, direct teacher-student interactions have a greater impact on student outcomes than broader educational environments. In addition to pointing out the important role of teacher behaviors in educational success, these findings suggest that enhancing teacher empathy and motivation may be more effective than improving school environments alone. Study implications extend beyond the immediate educational setting, offering insights into effective strategies for teacher development and student engagement. To validate these findings further and explore additional mediating factors, future research should consider broader demographic variables and include objective measures.

Assessment of Factors Associated with Adherence to Antiretroviral Therapy among HIV Patients at Kampala International University Teaching Hospital in Ishaka, Uganda
Authors: Bayati Namulondo ,   Faculty of Clinical Medicine and Dentistry Kampala International University Western Campus Uganda
Published: July 2024

HIV has increasingly become a chronic, manageable disease due to the introduction of antiretroviral therapies (ARTs). For the effectiveness of antiretroviral therapy, a high level of adherence is required. This study therefore seeks to assess the adherence level and the influence of its determinants in HIV patients on antiretroviral therapy at the Kampala International University Teaching Hospital (KIUTH) HIV clinic in Ishaka, Uganda. Quantitative cross-section study approach was conducted to assess the factors associated with adherence to a-ntiretroviral therapy among HIV patients at KIUTH in Ishaka, Uganda. Data was collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire in 150 respondents in this study. The qualitative data collected was statistically analysed and documented using Microsoft Excel and Word version 2019, which were then analyzed. The analysed data was presented in the form of tables and graphs, which formed the basis for discussion and conclusion. Of a total of 150 clients interviewed, equal proportions of 26% were in the age groups of 40–49 and 50–59 years, with a mean age of 46 years. The majority (65%) were female, with most (45%) being Anglicans, followed by Catholics (32%), Muslims (14%), and other religions (9%). Nearly half (45.1%) of the respondents were married. About 7% had tertiary education, while 37% had completed the ordinary level of high school. Nearly half (47%) knew the name of the ART they were taking, while 17% did not. Less than a third (26.7%) did not know the name of the ART drug they were taking. A large proportion (93%) stated that ART prevents mother-to-child transmission of infection, while 7% reported that they did not know. Nearly all (96%) respondents knew HIV could be controlled by ART. The majority (87%) stated that taking ART prevents disease progression, and 63% opined that missing ART drugs can lead to transmission of the disease. Overall, adherence to ART was 39% while non-adherence was 61%. In conclusion, the study discovered a high degree of awareness but a low level of adherence to ART among patients living with HIV. Forgetfulness, financial level, employment status, and knowledge of the benefits of the intervention are all important factors in nonadherence among some HIV patients. As a result, ART clinics should increase the level of education provided to customers to encourage patients to take complete responsibility for their health status.

Published: July 2024

The aim of this study was to determine the role of surgical stress on the formation of p53-positive and dark neurons (DN) in the hippocampus, and to examine the parallelism of their formation in the pyramidal layer of the hippocampus. Simulated septoplasty was performed on 20 Wistar rats. The hippocampus and dentate gyrus (DG) were examined, in which the number of DN and p53-positive neurons was determined at 2, 4 and 6 days after surgery. Compared with the control group (n = 5), the number of DN and p53-positive neurons increased in experimental animals at all periods. A direct relationship was obtained between the increase in the number of DN and p53-positive neurons in the hippocampal formation. Septoplasty simulation in rats results in the pathogenetic cascades onset, which, in its turn, changes the morphofunctional properties of neurons of the pyramidal layer of the hippocampus and contributes to their neuroplasticity.Activation of NMDS receptors of neurons during stress apparently, initiates two ways of neuron life – the beginning of p53 protein expression and the DN formation. Both ways can finally lead to apoptosis. The formation of dark neurons and the expression of the p53 protein in them are most likely to be interconnected and can probably provide neuroprotective mechanisms.

The Emerging of Patron-Client Relationship in Contemporary Peasant Social Movement Articulation
Authors: Setiawan Tomi
Published: July 2024

This paper is a literature review in the study of contemporary peasant social movements. Peasant social movements, especially in Indonesia, are always interesting because of the complex problems that have yet to be resolved.  This paper uses a qualitative method with an Integrated Literature Review (ILR) approach. The search for article data was carried out using the Google Scholar database using the keywords: "peasant social movements", "articulation", and "patron-client relationships". Furthermore, articles were sorted based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Articles that have been obtained are then extracted. The study results show that in articulating their interests, peasants often do so by using a combination of internal organizational networks known as resource mobilization theory and external activism better known as political opportunity theory cluster. Articulating their interests through subsequent social movement actors gives rise to patron-client relationships between them. In conclusion, we argue that the emergence of patron-client relationships has an impact on the articulation of interests through social movement actors.

The placenta which is a crucial intermediary in maternal-fetal exchanges, undergoes intricate structural changes throughout gestation, culminating in its fully developed form at term. The potential impact of maternal age on pregnancy and fetal outcomes has generated interest. This study aimed to investigate the intricate relationships between maternal age, and placental morphology and morphometry at term pregnancy. This study was a hospital-based, cross-sectional study with a systematic sampling technique, which meticulously collected and examined 250 placentae postpartum. Rigorous cleansing under running water preceded comprehensive assessments and precise measurements. Detailed maternal histories were obtained to facilitate comprehensive contextual analysis. Descriptive statistics (frequency and percentage) were complemented by inferential analyses (ANOVA and Pearson correlation), with significance level set at p<0.05. Among the reviewed placentae (n=250), statistically significant relationships exist between maternal age and some placental parameters. Notably, maternal age exhibited positive associations with placental thickness (p=0.048), placental weight (p=0.014), and the number of cotyledons (p=0.028). However, no statistically significant relationships were identified between maternal age and placental shape (p=0.977) or placental diameter (p=0.070). Maternal age significantly influences pregnancy outcomes. Maternal age affects placental morphometry more than placental morphology.

Published: July 2024

Introduction: Pancreatic trauma is a rare but potentially fatal condition. Blunt pancreatic trauma can lead to severe hemorrhagic pancreatitis, a life-threatening complication. This case report presents a fatal instance of blunt severe hemorrhagic pancreatitis resulting from an assault.
Case presentation: A 21-year-old male victim was found unconscious in a student dormitory after suffering multiple punches to the abdomen during an assault. Despite being rushed to the hospital, the victim succumbed to his injuries. A post-mortem examination revealed extensive bruising on the abdomen, along with internal injuries including cardiovascular enlargement, colonic vasodilation, and blood on the surface of the pancreatic tissue. Histological analysis of the pancreas showed severe necrosis, cytoplasmic necrosis, and widespread hemorrhagic hyperemia of the peripancreatic tissue. Toxicological tests for drugs, alcohol, and other substances were negative.
Conclusion: This case highlights the potential severity of blunt pancreatic trauma and the importance of prompt diagnosis and treatment. The retroperitoneal location of the pancreas can make diagnosis challenging, leading to delays in care and potentially fatal outcomes. In cases of suspected abdominal trauma, a thorough examination of the pancreas is crucial, including histological analysis if necessary. This case underscores the need for increased awareness of pancreatic trauma among healthcare professionals and the public.
Development of a method for determining the parameters of energy storage devices to ensure uninterrupted power supply for auxiliary needs of an electric train
Authors: Istomin Stanislav , Shatohin Andrey
Published: July 2024

The aim of this article is to conduct experimental research to determine the energy storage parameters for providing uninterrupted power supply to the auxiliary needs of electric trains. Analytical power calculations for the auxiliary equipment of electric trains were performed based on the operating manual data. Additionally, a statistical method of data processing on the energy consumption of electric trains was applied. The operational fleet and service routes of the motor wagon depot TCh-31 Omsk and OAO "Omsk-Prigorod" of the West Siberian Railway were examined. The ED4M series electric trains were selected for analysis, as they are the most common in the TCh-31 Omsk depot. The auxiliary equipment of ED4M electric trains was investigated, and the nominal power values of units and devices providing auxiliary needs for the motor wagon rolling stock were determined. Key performance indicators of the motor wagon rolling stock were obtained on different operating sections under varying ambient temperatures, based on data from the motion and control parameter recording systems (RPDA-E). This allows for the identification of the most optimal parameters for the electric energy storage system. The developed method will enable potential manufacturers of energy storage systems to define their essential parameters, as well as assess the feasibility of their application on specific electric trains and operating sections. In summary, for the example considered in this article, it is noteworthy that the energy storage system operates in brief intervals. The average duration of the charging mode is 60 seconds, and the returned energy volume by the motor wagon rolling stock, determining the energy capacity, averages 28 kWh at a maximum power of 0.8 MW. Based on these values, it can be concluded that the recuperation energy volume and, consequently, the energy capacity of the storage system are insufficient to cover the electric energy consumption of the electric train in traction mode. Therefore, the storage system, including its use for reducing peak loads during traction mode, can be considered. It is important to note that, for providing uninterrupted power supply to the electric train's own needs throughout the entire journey, the returned electrical energy volume during regenerative braking is also insufficient. This necessitates exploring the charging of the energy storage system at the departure station or during motion from the converter of own needs at times of minimal loading.
The general state of water resources in Montenegro

Published: July 2024

Water resources are essential for the functioning of societies and ecosystems, affecting public health, food production, industry and overall environmental stability. A country's ability to manage and maintain its water resources is closely related to economic prosperity, social well-being and ecological health. The paper shows Montenegro's current state of water resources, highlighting negative trends and challenges. It focuses on three significant issues: difficulties securing sufficient water quantities, escalating problems related to water protection from floods, and growing threats to humans and the environment due to water pollution and ecosystem destruction. Global climate change exacerbates these challenges, affecting rainfall patterns and leading to destructive water waves. Despite the apparent abundance, the irregular distribution of water resources poses a significant problem, particularly in the Dinaric karst area. The paper discusses limitations in water resource management, emphasising the challenges posed by spatial, ecological, urban, and sociological factors. It also addresses the untapped hydro energy potential in Montenegro, highlighting the country's dependence on electricity imports despite having the capability to generate a substantial portion through hydro energy. The general conclusion emphasises the need for a comprehensive and sustainable approach to solving the complex challenges facing water resources in Montenegro. Finally, the paper calls for increased international cooperation in developing and implementing effective policies for the sustainable use and preservation of water resources as one of the most critical resources of a country.
Experimental investigation of aluminum welded lattice girders
Authors: Kalač Šemso , Zejnelagić Naja , Đuričić Đorđe , Lučić Duško
Published: July 2024

Aluminum and its alloys are valued for their corrosion resistance, lightweight and versatile functionality within extruded profiles. However, the integration of aluminum into welded truss systems is complicated due to the formation of heat-affected zones (HAZs). In these zones, as a result of the softening effect, the reduction of load-bearing capacity is up to 50%. This complicates the design of welded joints, introducing a significant challenge to the seamless application of aluminum in such structural frameworks. The lack of specific rules for welded aluminum joints in the regulatory standard EN 1999-1-1 (EC 9) contributes to the issue. Consequently, engineers decided to use EN 1993-1-8 (EC 3), a standard not specially designed for aluminum applications, but for steel. This approach obliviously results in a conservative design process that ignores all of the advantages that aluminum alloys provide. In response to this discrepancy, our study examines the behaviour of welded joints within lattice girders, crafted from the EN AW6082 T6 alloy. This is the most widely used aluminum alloy for structures, which has yielding strength values up to those of steel S235. It is known that due to material softening during the welding process, the yield strength in the heat-affected zone (HAZ) of this alloy might drop by up to 50%. All tested lattice girders have the same chord members, which are square hollow section (SHS) 100x5 profiles. The brace members' sizes and shapes have been variated in order to perform the parametric investigation. The three trusses were built using brace members from square hollow section profiles (SHS) with widths of forty, fifty, and sixty mm; the remaining three trusses were built using braces from circular hollow section (CHS) profiles with diameters of forty, fifty, and sixty millimeters. The extensive experimental investigation combined with parametric analysis indicates complex load-bearing behavior depending on cross-section types and size. These results highlight the complex structural behaviour of aluminum lattice girders due to the peculiarity mentioned above which occurs in aluminum due to the heat input as a result of welding.
Not just theory
Authors: Quell Philipp
Published: July 2024

Donna Haraway suggests that traditional Western knowledge is inherently linked to the marginalization of non-Western visions. Similarly, Walter Mignolo criticizes the “colonial matrix of power” that dominates not only epistemology but also excludes incommensurable perspectives. He embraces Humberto Maturana’s idea of “objectivity-without-parenthesis” to highlight the exclusive nature of Western knowledge and its aspiration toward universality. On this basis, this essay argues that the traditional view of academic authors as impartial and detached needs to be reconsidered. Academic practice must move beyond this framework to create a more comprehensive and inclusive understanding of knowledge. To achieve this, the text will explore the concept of “queer writing,” which views the context in which academic expression occurs as the necessary condition for its possibility. Therefore, the text will (1) specify the image of Western knowledge and universality, (2) identify the crucial shifts in the course of its development, and (3) outline possible interventions.
Crip sovereignty
Authors: Jorn Andrew
Published: July 2024

Crip theory traces a line of flight away from liberal disability studies in the direction of an ethics of degradation which revels in and exploits disability’s destabilising and disruptive potential. The danger of such an ethics, however, is that it risks romanticising disability and, in so doing, unintentionally underwriting ableist prejudices by continuing to index human worth to the capacity for self-determination, here in the form of a subversive “indeterminacy” and “heterogeneity”. Georges Bataille’s work can supplement crip theory insofar as it likewise joyfully affirms the scandalousness of degradation (uselessness, waste, etc.) while grounding this affirmation in an ontology of productive life überhaupt that shifts the responsibility for transgression from the individual onto society. For Bataille, more specifically, the point is that there is a categorical imperative to celebrate degradation as the a priori condition of a collective commitment to prevent global catastrophic suffering.
Intimate places

Published: July 2024

Our essay starts from our first-person experience of visiting El Eco Experimental Museum in Mexico City. Over the course of our visit, El Eco became, what we will call an ‘intimate place’ in which we were able to explore personal thoughts, memories, and feelings. We go on to compare El Eco to Black Water (2021), a site-specific art installation by RAAAF. We draw on Donald Winnicott’s work on play to show how intimate places like the El Eco museum have commonalities with the therapeutic setting of psychotherapy. They are places that enable people to freely associate by enabling a visitor to be in a state of relaxation, and by affording a rich array of disruptive possibilities for self-exploration. We understand such intimate places as playgrounds that can (temporarily) disrupt rigid patterns of resistance or avoidance, enabling a person to confront difficult emotions and experiences that might otherwise go unnoticed.

La paulatina constitucionalización del derecho al recurso
Authors: Nieva-Fenoll Jordi
Published: July 2024

No es evidente que la interposición de recursos contra resoluciones judiciales deba ser objeto de un derecho fundamental. Existen multitud de regulaciones constitucionales en el mundo, muy diferentes entre sí, siendo que unas lo reconocen expresamente, otras lo dan por supuesto y un tercer grupo simplemente no menciona el tema. Las tendencias de los países suelen reflejar su trayectoria histórica, pese a que existen casos verdaderamente curiosos en este sentido. Realmente, se ha hecho de todo con la primitiva appellatio del Derecho Romano.
En este artículo se repasan las regulaciones constitucionales a nivel mundial, no distinguiendo por regiones geográficas propiamente, sino por las tendencias antes mencionadas. Asimismo, se tratan los recursos ante tribunales supranacionales, allí donde existen, siendo un caso destacable el del Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos, que de hecho se ha normalizado como una especie de último remedio, muy excepcional, pero realmente efectivo. También se dedica atención al modelo de la Corte Interamericana de los Derechos Humanos, y se trata asimismo el muy reciente caso del Tribunal Africano de los Derechos Humanos y de los Pueblos, que convendrá vigilar en el futuro.
Tras todo ese análisis descriptivo y crítico a la vez, se concluye que a los efectos de garantizar una mejor protección a los ciudadanos, convendría que el derecho al recurso fuera expresamente constitucionalizado. Con ello se eliminarían dudas, se reflejaría al mismo tiempo una tradición jurídica muy arraigada en el mundo, y finalmente se podría acabar poniendo freno al habitual formalismo en la admisión de los medios de impugnación.
La autonomía del Rey en la democracia del 78: alcance de sus funciones y el necesario equilibrio entre las voluntades regia y refrendante
Authors: Teruel Lozano Germán
Published: July 2024

Este trabajo se propone estudiar la posición y funciones del rey en el ordenamiento constitucional español realizando una lectura adecuada al entendimiento democrático de la monarquía parlamentaria. En especial, a la luz de las normas y principios constitucionales, pero también de la práctica en democracia, se analizará el margen de autonomía en las distintas intervenciones regias y el alcance del refrendo. A tales efectos, se concluirá realizando una clasificación de los actos del rey en la que se distinguirán, principalmente, entre actos formalmente regios, actos formal y materialmente regios e intervenciones duunvirales o complejas. En ellas, se verá cómo el refrendo jugará un papel no sólo como un mecanismo para la transmisión de la responsabilidad jurídica y política, que comporta la transferencia del poder de decisión -allí donde el rey lo tuviera-, sino como un instrumento de contrapeso o control político-institucional que tiene que resultar compatible con el respeto de la autonomía funcional del jefe del Estado.
Disposiciones constitucionales en materia de igualdad de mujeres y hombres: análisis comparado en América Latina y España
Authors: Nuño Gómez Laura , Martínez de Aragón López Lara
Published: July 2024

La configuración de la igualdad en el constitucionalismo contemporáneo representa un parámetro o indicador de coherencia en sistemas democráticos pretendidamente igualitarios. El presente artículo recoge un análisis del tratamiento de la juridificación de las disposiciones específicas en materia de la igualdad de mujeres y hombres en las Constituciones de América Latina y España. Con tal finalidad, se examina su presencia o integración en la declaración motivacional que suponen los Preámbulos, su consideración como valor superior del ordenamiento jurídico, su contenido formal -propio del primer constitucionalismo- y la formulación del principio antidiscriminatorio como expresión de un mandato general de interdicción de un trato arbitrario o diferenciado. A su vez, dicho tratamiento se conecta con el reconocimiento de un contenido material que transita desde la igualdad de trato a la igualdad sustantiva y que se configura como reto aspiracional de un estado social que justifica y legitima un trato diferencial siempre que sea objetivo y razonable. Conviene advertir que, hasta la fecha, en el ámbito territorial objeto de estudio, sólo cinco Constituciones incluyen una disposición específica que obliga a la promoción de la igualdad material de mujeres y hombres y cuatro incluyen dicha previsión, pero sin mención expresa a colectivos o destinatarios específicos, como en el caso español. En suma, el presente artículo ofrece un análisis comparado que permite identificar el tratamiento de la igualdad en el constitucionalismo contemporáneo, así como ámbitos subjetivos de aplicación, medidas o políticas públicas contempladas, atribución competencial de las mismas y formulaciones concretas en su reconocimiento. Un estudio que no sólo brinda una cartografía de la configuración constitucional del derecho a la igualdad en el ámbito territorial objeto de estudio, sino que ofrece un diagnóstico sobre las diferentes fórmulas constitucionales que han transformado el contenido y alcance del derecho a la igualdad, así como del tratamiento de la igualdad en la Constitución española desde una perspectiva comparada.
La institucionalidad política en el Perú tras el fallido golpe de estado a la Constitución de 1993
Authors: Hakansson Carlos
Published: July 2024

El pasado 7 de diciembre de 2022 fracasó un golpe de Estado perpetrado por el propio jefe de Estado. Sin embargo, la oposición política no está de acuerdo con la sucesión presidencial. Un grupo de vándalos y desórdenes públicos en la capital produjeron varias víctimas entre ciudadanos y policías. Por su parte, la nueva presidenta, Dina Boluarte, manifestó durante su primer discurso la voluntad de adelantar elecciones presidenciales y parlamentarias. El Congreso de la República no aprobó la iniciativa de reforma constitucional para hacerlo posible.
Los presidentes de Argentina, Colombia, México y Venezuela deciden no reconocer al nuevo presidente y deploran la detención del expresidente Pedro Castillo en la cárcel con condiciones especiales como Alberto Fujimori y Alejandro Toledo. Evo Morales de Bolivia movió al sur del país a quejarse contra el gobierno. López Obrador en México aprobó asilo a esposa e hijos de Castillo. Petro en Colombia rompe relaciones con Perú. Además, la Comisión Internacional de Derechos Humanos publicó un polémico informe sobre los derechos y libertades en el Perú (abril 2023). El trabajo contiene más de una inexactitud sobre los hechos y causas de la crisis política, además de argumentos parciales utilizando únicamente periódicos, diarios y entrevistas de la oposición política sin contrastar las posiciones del oficialismo y otros medios.
Hoy, la presidenta Boluarte carece de aprobación. Las consecuencias del fracaso de las políticas durante la presidencia de Castillo afectaron la economía, la seguridad y el aumento de la corrupción en torno a la administración pública. Los analistas dicen que necesita cambiar de Gabinete y de primer ministro en unas semanas para conseguir estabilidad y gobernabilidad. El trabajo quiere hacer una explicación utilizando las disposiciones y antecedentes constitucionales para argumentar la legitimidad de la sucesión presidencial y las principales reformas para preparar las próximas elecciones de 2026.

Published: July 2024

Evitar el sufrimiento y la preocupación excesiva ha propiciado que aparezcan nuevos enfoques terapéuticos complementarios, como son las terapias de tercera generación. En ocasiones, este sufrimiento viene derivado de las disfunciones sexuales. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la efectividad de las Terapias de Tercera Generación, en concreto EMDR; Mindfulness; Terapia de Aceptación y Compromiso; y Psicoterapia Analítica Funcional; en las Disfunciones Sexuales. Tras una búsqueda bibliográfica en las principales bases de datos, y una vez realizado un proceso de selección, treinta y siete son los artículos seleccionados. Para realizar la revisión se ha utilizado el Análisis Textual (Text mining), a través del software IRaMuTeQ 0.7 alpha 2. Los resultados muestran que estas terapias de tercera generación muestran mejoras significativas en el tratamiento de las disfunciones sexuales en su gran mayoría, destacando el uso de Mindfulness. Se concluye con la necesidad de realizar investigaciones con muestra más heterogénea para que los datos puedan generalizarse al resto de la población.
