Nanoherbicides are articulated by exploiting the prospective of nanotechnology for effectively delivering chemical and biological herbicides using nanomaterial‐based herbicide combinations. The nanoparticles were characterized using X-ray diffraction and FT-IR. On the targeted weeds, the nanoherbicides were sprayed at the third to fourth leaf stage. Six different doses were applied. The mortality and visual injury caused by both chitosan-based nanoherbicides reached 100% at the recommended dose of standard herbicide. The 5-fold lower dose exhibited weed density and maximum wheat yield and related parameters. For the same traits, the nanoherbicide at 10-fold lower dose of commercial herbicides showed a comparable influence as the suggested dose. The size of both herbicides was found to be 35–65 nm. It was observed that the clodinofop-propargyl nanoherbicide has an intense peak appearing at a 2θ value of 29.83°, corresponding to the (176) plane of the anatase phase and NPs of fenoxaprop-P-ethyl showed an intense peak around the 2θ value of 30.55° corresponding to the (74) plane of the anatase phase. The FT-IR spectra of fenoxaprop-P-ethyl clearly showed that the major functional groups were located in the FT-IR region between 610 and 1,840 cm−1 and the major functional ones of clodinofop propargyl were located in the FT-IR region between 640 and 1,740 cm−1. Nanoherbicides could restore the efficacy of conventional herbicides by improving stability and reducing toxicity.

Published: November 2023

As a high metastatic tumor, patients having hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) show poor prognosis. The carcinogenic roles of circMMP11 are generally described in the development of other cancers. However, there is a lack of studies on its involvement in HCC. Therefore, we investigated the potential role and molecular mechanisms of CircMMP11 in the development of HCC in vitro, providing preliminary evidence for the clinical treatment of HCC. First, we examined the expression of CircMMP11 in HCC tissues and cell lines in both clinical and in vitro experiments. We then used a loss-of-function assay to determine CircMMP11’s regulatory role on the malignant characteristics of HCC cells. The results showed that high expression of CircMMP11 in HCC was associated with patient overall survival. Serum CircMMP11 had good diagnostic efficacy in distinguishing HCC patients from the control group. In vitro, inhibiting CircMMP11 suppressed the malignant characteristics of human HCC cell lines by directly sequestering miR-361-3p, which further affected the downstream gene HMGB1 expression. In addition, we knocked down CircMMP11 and found that its deletion inhibited the malignant characteristics of HCC cells through the miR-361-3p/HMGB1 axis.

Forceful patterning: theoretical principles of mechanochemical pattern formation
Authors: Rombouts Jan , Elliott Jenna , Erzberger Anna
Published: November 2023

Biological pattern formation is essential for generating and maintaining spatial structures from the scale of a single cell to tissues and even collections of organisms. Besides biochemical interactions, there is an important role for mechanical and geometrical features in the generation of patterns. We review the theoretical principles underlying different types of mechanochemical pattern formation across spatial scales and levels of biological organization.
Multimodal Student Voice Representation Through an Online Digital Storytelling Project
Authors: Ruiz-Pérez Sergio
Published: November 2023

A thriving body of literature has identified student voice as being vital to education and literacy development. However, the understanding of multimodal student voice representation is still modest in literacy-based pedagogical practices. Thus, this article presents a study that examined the development of students’ multimodal authoring through the inclusion of multiliteracies in the higher education foreign language curriculum based on design analysis (Kalantzis et al., 2016) and the protocol Voice and Choice (Sheya, 2018) as a way to aid student voice representation. Specifically, the article describes the qualitative analysis of the design choices resulting from the collaborative work of three students during an online course project (CP) implemented in an intermediate intensive L2 Spanish undergraduate hybrid course. The CP was based on the tenets of (1) multiliteracies and (2) digital storytelling in combination with (3) a protocol that guides students to look into the voices and perspectives of specific content. The results showed that participants described the elements of digital storytelling design in depth, monomodally, and multimodally. Also, when creating their digital story, they expanded their authorial choices, honed their sensitivity in selecting fitting voices and perspectives to express an intentional message, and reflected on whose voices were missing from the content. This investigation offers insight into and advances understanding of the existing body of literature on multiliteracies, multimodal authoring, and student voice representation.

Published: November 2023

Background: The present study aimed to evaluate the quality of life, depression, and anxiety scores of children with primary immunodeficiency (PID) and depression, anxiety scores, and the caregiving burden of their mothers.
Methods: A total of 149 children aged 2-18 years and their mothers were included in the present study, along with 125 healthy children and their mothers as a control group. The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL), Child Depression Inventory (CDI), and Screening for Child Anxiety-Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED) questionnaire were used based on the views of children and their mothers. The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Temperament Evaluation of Memphis, Pisa, Paris, San Diego Autoquestionnaire (TEMPS-A), and Zarit Caregiver Burden Scale (ZCB) were used for the mothers.
Results: According to children and their mothers, the scores of the PedsQL were lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). In addition, according to the views of children and mothers, we found that PID children had higher depression and anxiety scores than healthy children (P < 0.05). The depression and anxiety levels of mothers in the patient group were also significantly higher than those in the control group (P = 0.05 and P = 0.001).
Conclusion: Statistically, we found significantly lower psychosocial health summary scores and total scale score levels from the subclass of PedsQL in the patient group than in the control group. According to the views of both children and mothers, we observed that PID children had higher depression and anxiety scores than healthy children. It was also found that the BDI and BAI values in case of mothers in the patient group were significantly higher than those in the control group.

Authors: Jonassen Kjetil Høyer
Published: November 2023

The purpose of this article is to contribute more knowledge about digital technology in music therapy and public health, focusing on portable tablet technology. The article presents the findings from a multiple case study in which four adolescent outpatients from a mental health institution for children and adolescents participated in an iPadbased music workshop. The empirical data is sourced from qualitative interviews and participatory observation conducted during the workshop. The analysis suggests that the activity of making music with an iPad establishes and develops social relations, promotes self-esteem, and develops identity, enhances subjective wellbeing, and aids in dealing with daily life problems. Furthermore, it is suggested that the activity has value in terms of affording co-creation, strengthening agency, and building self-efficacy. The discussion includes reflections and critique concerning health-affordance, health musicking, and identity, and it argues for the benefits of using digital music technology with adolescents in mental health care.

Published: November 2023

The study examined snail production cost and return analysis in Obio-Akpor Local Government Area of Rivers State, Nigeria. The study draws its essence from the fact that the supply of protein to the increasing population of Nigeria is inadequate. Given its profitability level, snail farming can serve as an important protein supplement to bridge the food insecurity gap. Through field surveys, copies of structured questionnaires were employed for collecting data from 40 snail farmers, who were randomly sampled. The analytical tools include frequencies, percentages, budgetary techniques, multiple regression, and mean scores. The results showed that snail farming was dominated by males (65%). The farmers were predominantly aged between 21 and 59, with a 67.5% score. Budgetary analysis showed that the farmers received a monthly net farm income of ₦113,000 (275.494 USD) and a gross margin of ₦1 345 000 (3279.11 USD), thus entailing the enterprise's profitability. Results of the multiple regression showed that variables like marital status and the purpose for farming were significant in determining the profitability status of snail farmers. Lack of collateral to secure loans to support farming and the problem of disease infected from contamination were some of the critical factors which constrained snail production, both jointly having a mean score of 3.35. It is recommended that the government give surety to registered farmers who do not have collateral to secure loans.

Published: November 2023

TPACK questionnaires have been extensively developed, but measurements considering biological content insights still need to be explored. This study aimed to develop and validate TPACK questionnaires by assessing core competencies, core content, and interdisciplinary biology knowledge for preservice biology teachers. We performed development and validation through focus group discussions with biological education experts, and survey studies. The survey was conducted in three phases with a total number of 732 preservice biology teachers. In phase 1, descriptive analysis was calculated based on 232 participants. In Phase 2, Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) was calculated based on 250 participants. In phase 3, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was calculated to validate and confirm the final dimension of the instrument recently developed based on 250 participants. This series of analyses resulted in 44 items with eight dimensions: Technological Pedagogical Biological Content Knowledge of Biology (TPACKB) comprises 12 items; Technological Knowledge (TK) of biology, Biological Knowledge (BK), and Technological Pedagogical Knowledge (TPK) of the biology consist of 6 items respectively; Technological Biological Knowledge (TBK) comprises of 5 items; Pedagogical Knowledge (PK) of biology, Pedagogical Biological Knowledge (PBK), and Biological Context Knowledge (BCxK) comprise of 3 items respectively. Our study recommended a TPACK questionnaire to assess preservice biology teachers' holistically interdisciplinary understanding, core content, and core competencies as necessary steps to empower biological resolution for their students.

Published: November 2023

The COVID-19 pandemic has undeniably disrupted the education system, prompting many universities and schools to suspend in-person classes in favour of online learning. This transition has been linked to increased levels of academic stress and mental health issues among university students. This study aimed to (i) assess the coverage of articles addressing the challenges faced by students in higher education institutions during lockdown and (ii) identify the coping mechanisms employed by these students. Employing a scoping review methodology, researchers selectively reviewed articles published from 2019 to 2023. Databases such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and Sabinet Africa Journals served as sources for data collection, which was subsequently analysed thematically. Findings indicate that psychology students faced multiple challenges during online learning, including elevated stress and anxiety levels, data limitations, and poor network connectivity. To cope with these challenges, students relied on support from family and friends, self-motivation, and effective time management. Consequently, the study highlights the need for pedagogical adaptations, recommending that educators modify their teaching approaches to better engage students in discussions and mitigate the noted challenges.

Published: November 2023

Improper pharmaceutical waste disposal is a rising environmental pollutant around the world. Pharmaceutical waste disposal legislation and regulations are available to some extent but limited to industrial premises and health-care institutions. Information on the disposal of pharmaceutical waste in public hands, known as domestic pharmaceutical waste (DPW), is limited. This scoping review aims to comprehend the global practice of DPW disposal by following the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews guideline. Three online databases were searched for eligible articles: peer-reviewed in English language, describing the methods that the public disposed of unwanted or expired pharmaceuticals at home (DPW Disposal) and the public’s participation in their local DPW programs (DPW Program). Search terms were derived from Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) and free text when applicable. One expert report and thirty research publications were analysed. The articles originated from Asia (n=13), the Middle East (n=6), Africa (n=4), Europe (n=3), the United States (n=3) and Australia (n=1). Most pharmaceuticals are disposed of as household garbage (58.8%), returned to health facilities (17.9%) and flushed down the toilet drain (8.1%). There is a large range of diversity in public awareness (range: 14% - 82%) and participation in DPW Programs (range: 8.3% to 64%) with higher percentages reported from European countries. Existing regulations and policies have modest to moderate impact on proper DPW disposal. Our findings provide new information that may be utilised by policymakers in the process of laying the groundwork for a national plan outlining the most effective methods for disposing of DPW.
Problems of liability for injury to the health caused by the use of genome editing systems of germ line cells
Authors: Belova D. A.
Published: November 2023

The problem of the admissibility of compensation for harm caused to the health of a person by an act committed before his birth, in particular, due to editing of the genome of human germ line cells, is investigated. It is argued that in the case of a live birth, a child acquires the right to compensation for property and moral damage caused by an act committed before his birth. It is substantiated that such an act is illegal, as violating an objective right and encroaching on an intangible good (health) protected by law. Due to the fact that the modern level of development of science and medicine allows to directly affect human health long before it is born, such an intangible good as health should begin its legal existence "in anticipation" of the subject of civil law due to its special significance for the future participant of property and personal non-property relations that constitute the subject of civil law regulation.

Authors: Zhu Xuelin
Published: November 2023

The Article 33 of the Chinese Civil Code provides written voluntary guardianship agreements and the Article 11 of the newly issued Interpretation provides arbitrary rescission rights and statutory rescission rights concerning the agreements. Some aspects related to exercising the rescission rights including fiduciary relationship, time limit, legal effects and circumstances, are interpreted in detail in this paper firstly and then rescission rights by agreement stipulated in the Article 562 of the Chinese Civil Code are discussed in terms of connotation and civil subjects. There after, the two principles including the principle of best interests and the principle of protecting self-determination rights for exercising rescission rights are examined in theory and in practice. In the end, in terms of practical application of rescission rights, it is pointed out that some problems regarding possible abuse and time limit of rescission rights remain to be solved for the future interpretation of the Chinese Civil Code.

The prevalence of shingles disease has become a significant concern in the healthcare industry, and the search for effective treatment options has intensified. In this research paper, we investigate the anti-microbial and anti-viral efficacy of a mixture of extracted Piper Betle Linn leaves and Cynodon Dactylon with curd and calcium oxide against shingles disease.

The study employed a randomized controlled trial design, with participants divided into four groups. The first group was administered the mixture of extracted Piper Betle Linn leaves and Cynodon Dactylon, the second group received the same mixture with curd, the third group was given the mixture with calcium oxide, while the fourth group served as the control and received a placebo.

Results from the study revealed that the mixture of extracted Piper Betle Linn leaves and Cynodon Dactylon with curd and calcium oxide demonstrated potent anti-microbial and anti-viral efficacy against shingles disease, as evidenced by a significant reduction in the severity and duration of symptoms. The mixture was also found to be safe and well-tolerated by participants, with no adverse effects reported.

The findings of this research paper have significant implications for the treatment of shingles disease, as the mixture of extracted Piper Betle Linn leaves and Cynodon Dactylon with curd and calcium oxide presents a promising alternative to conventional treatment options. The use of natural extracts and compounds in the mixture also provides a safer and more sustainable approach to treating the disease.

In conclusion, the results of this study demonstrate the effectiveness of the mixture of extracted Piper Betle Linn leaves and Cynodon Dactylon with curd and calcium oxide in treating shingles disease. Further research is needed to fully explore the potential of this mixture in combating other viral and microbial infections.

The Management of Acute Ischaemic Stroke – A Review and South African Perspective
Authors: Sadiq Eitzaz , Kroon Louis , Brey Naeem , Mochan Andre
Published: November 2023

Reperfusion therapy in acute ischaemic stroke, namely intravenous thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy, have traditionally had strict time-based eligibility criteria. Recent advances in diagnostic and imaging modalities have resulted in a more dynamic view of eligibility for these therapies. The time clock concept may soon be superseded by the “tissue clock” concept, where accurate identification of the extent of the salvageable penumbra has been shown to result in favourable outcomes well beyond the traditional time limits in carefully selected patients. However in a low-middle income country like South Africa, the social, economic and geographic barriers to an effective acute stroke management service are often overwhelming. In this review we provide an update on the current evidence guiding management of acute ischaemic stroke, with a particular emphasis on the challenges faced in resource-constrained regions.
Forma i treść. Polski i zagraniczny feature radiowy oraz jego odmiany gatunkowe
Authors: Kowalska Natalia
Published: November 2023

Książka jest poświęcona gatunkowi radiowemu feature zbliżonemu do reportażu artystycznego. Autorka prezentuje stan badań, precyzuje terminologię, wyznacza granice omawianego gatunku i jego odmian. Kreśli historię feature’a i pokrewnych form wypowiedzi, odwołując się zarówno do przykładów polskich, jak i obcych, głównie zachodnioeuropejskich – czytelnik znajdzie tu m.in. podrozdział o roli reportażu artystycznego w programie Radia Wolna Europa. Publikacja zawiera też analizę takich kategorii, jak narrator, aktor i elementy „słuchowiskowe” w twórczości z gatunku feature. * Opracowania dotyczące feature’a w polskiej literaturze przedmiotu są właściwie nieliczne. Nie chciałbym dokonywać porównań wartościujących, odnoszę jednak wrażenie, że książka Natalii Kowalskiej jest nie tylko wyraźniej ukierunkowana w swych celach i wywodach, lecz także pełniejsza, obszerniejsza, bardziej wyczerpująca. Dla „utwierdzenia” gatunku na gruncie polskim wydaje się niezwykle pożyteczna i na chwilę obecną trudna do zastąpienia. […] Pod wieloma względami jest dziełem pionierskim i w zakresie podjętego tematu stanie się bezsprzecznie ważnym punktem odniesienia.
УКОРЕНЕННОСТЬ СХЕМ ВОСПРИЯТИЯ И БЫТОВЫХ ПРАКТИК СТАРШЕГО ПОКОЛЕНИЯ В ОЦЕНКАХ БЛАГОПОЛУЧИЯ
Authors: Рыжкова Марина Вячеславовна , Дукарт Сергей Александрович , Петренко Максим Степанович
Published: November 2023

Статья посвящена анализу устойчивых схем восприятия и бытовых практик старшего поколения и их влияния на субъективную оценку социального благополучия. Описывается опыт проведения глубинного интервью, на основе которого были выявлены нарративные переживания, связанные с прошлым социальным опытом. Это позволило реконструировать комплекс предрасположенностей пожилых людей и описать повседневные социальные практики, сложившиеся в период детства респондентов. Логика и содержание глубинного интервью были направлены на установление связи между оценкой уровня текущего благополучия с оценкой уровня жизни в период формирования личности респондента. Актуальность обусловлена необходимостью расширения фактологической и методологической базы исследования проблемы благополучия пожилых людей в разные исторические периоды. Общей методологией послужили научные принципы структурного конструктивизма, утверждающие существование устойчивой зависимости между представлениями агента и приобретенными в прежние годы диспозициями. Цель: проверка гипотезы, что восприятие существующей реальности и оценка уровня благополучия старшим поколением являются результатом столкновения сформированных предыдущим опытом и укорененных в сознании стереотипов мышления и бытовых практик с новой социальной реальностью и ожиданиями общества. Результаты: пожилые люди в целом высоко оценивают собственное благополучие, сравнивая его с послевоенным десятилетием. Вспоминая то время, респонденты обращают внимание на упорный труд, отсутствие интенсивной конкуренции, высокую роль государства в решении бытовых проблем. Выявлены рационализация суждений и новые объясняющие шаблоны, направленные на примирение сложившихся моделей восприятия с ожиданиями окружающих.
THE REGULATORY IMPROVEMENT OF INSURANCE LAW REFORM IN ORDER TO PURSUE THE LEGAL CERTAINTY FOR THE PEOPLE AND THE INSURANCE COMPANY
Authors: Wijanto Wihadi
Published: November 2023

The growth of insurance sector in Indonesia so far shows a significant development. The data from the Financial Services Authority (OJK) recorded that in 2020 there were 139 insurance companies had obtained the permits to run their business in Indonesia. This number has been decreasing over the past five years due to the failure of several big insurance companies in managing the customer's insurance premium. For example, Bakrie Life and Bumi Asih Jaya Insurance. The research methods on this dissertation are normative with an empirical support to verify the basic research problem and to regulate an ideal formulation of legal protection for all insurance policyholders against the intentional mismanagement by the insurance companies. The results show that until now the rights of all insurance policyholders are still referring to the Commercial Law ( Trade Law Book ) and the Insurance Law. Both regulations do not specifically regulate the rights of insurance policyholders, especially those related to the investments or funds in the non-state-owned (non-BUMN) insurance companies with the priority of refunding if there is an intentional mismanagement or criminal acts committed by the director of the insurance company. The research concluded that the existing regulations do not provide a legal certainty for the insurance policyholders to get refunds for their deposit funds. This means, there is no legal protection for the insurance policyholders when the above mentioned crime occurs or when a violation occurs, or when there is a reinvestment failure. Therefore, it is recommended that the insurance law regulatory improvements be carried out, specifically those related to: 1) Non-litigation settlement mechanisms such as Arbitration (BANI), 2) Litigation settlement mechanisms including private law suit, force majeure, illegal act, bankruptcy suit against the investment managers, or criminal charges for embezzlement, fraud, or money laundering. In addition, it is necessary to have improvements of the technical provisions POJK No. 06/POJK.07/2022 concerning Consumer and Public Protection in the Financial Services Sector.

Background: This study examines the adverse effects of COVID-19 pandemic on pediatric orthopedics globally, including decreased patient admissions. The adverse effects of pandemic on pediatric orthopedic patients and surgeries have not been determined. This study aims to conduct a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the specific impact of COVID-19 pandemic on pediatric orthopedic admissions and surgical cases.Methods: A thorough examination of published literature was performed by searching databases such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane Library, using PRISMA guidelines, and limiting the search to articles published up to January 2022. The primary focus of this review was to inspect the ratio of admission and surgical cases, expressed as a risk ratio (RR) with a 95% confidence level. The study also evaluated any variation among outcomes using the I2 test and examined potential bias using the Egger test. The study findings were calculated using Review Manager 5.4.Results: Fifteen studies were reviewed, revealing a 70% decrease in pediatric orthopedic admissions during the pandemic but no significant difference in admissions between the pandemic and pre-pandemic eras (RR 1.08, 95% CI 0.76-1.54, p=0.66). Furthermore, in the perspective of the pediatric orthopedic surgical case, the pooled analysis also did not show any significant difference between both periods (RR 1.05, 95% CI 0.95 to 1.17, p=0.35). Egger's test result showed no evidence of small-study effects (p = 0.22).Conclusion: This study found that the number of children admitted for orthopedic surgeries and other orthopedic treatments was not greatly impacted during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Introductions: Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder. Many factors could increase someone’s risk of schizophrenia, including childhood trauma. There are many kinds of childhood trauma, including abuse and neglect. This report aims to emphasize the unwanted effects of childhood trauma in a schizophrenic patient and, therefore, the importance of its screening. Case: A hospitalized male hebephrenic patient was admitted and observed in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital for almost a month. The patient came to the hospital with a chief complaint of rage and grandiose delusion. He could neither eat nor sleep for about 2 weeks. He also had a history of neglect by his parents during childhood. Discussions: The patient, in this case suffered an acute psychosis that progressed into hebephrenic schizophrenia. He had a history of childhood trauma that made him vulnerable when faced with meaningful stress in his early adulthood. He had the grandiose delusion that was quite resistant with second generation of anti-psychotics and responded better with first generation of anti-psychotics. He was discharged on the 29th day of hospitalization and continued to take his antipsychotic medication orally at home. Conclusions: Childhood trauma has a huge contribution in risk for schizophrenia. Someone with history of childhood trauma tends to have vulnerability to a stress in adulthood that could make him fall into a psychosis and even schizophrenia. Therefore a screening for history of a childhood trauma is important.

Introductions: Various studies showed that medical students were more prone to exposure to stress and anxiety than their peers. Along with the rising popularity of smartphones, university students tend to spend time on smartphones to distract themselves from stress. However, the overuse of smartphones may lead to addiction. Methods: This study applied a modified version of the Smartphone Addiction Scale (SAS) to assess the level of addiction and Zung’s Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (ZSAS) to quantify the severity of anxiety. Based on Spearman’s rho statistical test, the value of p = 0.000 and r = 0.297. Results: There are 374 preclinical students included in this study. Most students (47.06%) use smartphones 5-10 hours daily. The majority of students were having mild anxiety (54.81%), followed by moderate anxiety (39.84%) and severe anxiety (5.35%). The results showed that smartphone addiction relates significantly to students’ anxiety (p<0.05). Conclusions: From this study, it can be concluded that there is a positive and signiaficant correlation between anxiety and smartphone addiction among preclinical students in the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Airlangga.

Introductions: Depressive disorders are expected consequences of experiencing child maltreatment. Many depressive disorders can occur with or without psychosis, which has different implications for treatment and prognosis. This condition raises the challenge of treating depression in maltreated adolescents because the patient has inadequate family and social support. Consequently, it is difficult for the patient to undergo psychotherapy that involves family.  Case: A 17-year-old female was diagnosed with psychotic depression. The patient had symptoms of depression, accompanied by hallucinations, since five years ago. The patient was hospitalized for suicidal ideation and food refusal for days. Patient had a history of child maltreatment by family and experienced bullying since elementary school. Patient believes that her family, especially her mother, had hated her from the beginning. Discussions: After stabilization of the patient’s general condition, psychopathology exploration was done together with selection of appropriate treatment. Combined Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor (SSRI) and atypical antipsychotic treatment are the evidence-based treatments for psychotic depression in maltreated adolescents. Studies involving patients with psychotic depression which were treated by combination of sertraline and olanzapine showed significant improvement of depression and psychotic symptoms and reduced the risk of relapse over 36 weeks, compared to sertraline plus placebo. Conclusion: Combination of SSRI, atypical antipsychotic and CBT with a trauma-informed approach should be considered as treatment for psychotic depression in maltreated adolescents.

Introductions: The global coronavirus-19 (COVID-19) pandemic disproportionately burdens people with schizophrenia and related disorders. Access to mental health providers in rural areas was still far from expected. People with schizophrenia in low and middle-income countries, including Bangkalan City, often lack access to evidence-based treatments. We hypothesized that psychoeducation might improve Mental Health Volunteers’ (MHV) knowledge and skills to help people with schizophrenia in rural areas. Furthermore, we want to identify the obstacles and practical solutions essential to improving the community’s mental health in Bangkalan City. Methods: The total participants were 134 MHV from the Department of Health, Bangkalan City. The data was collected in pretest and posttest on each workshop session and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). Results: There were significant improvements in the knowledge and skills about Schizophrenia of MHVs and programmers from the Department of Health, Bangkalan City (p<0.01). The three most common problems raised in FGD were communication with people with schizophrenia and their families due to health protocols, appeals from community leaders contrary to health policies, and family conflicts. Conclusions: Training for MHV in the Department of Health, Bangkalan City, has improved their understanding of schizophrenia and its interventions, their communication skills with people with schizophrenia and their families, and their skills to handle psychiatric emergencies related to schizophrenia. The three most common problems and the solutions were agreed upon during FGD.

This research is legal research using several problem approaches, namely statutory approaches, comparative approaches, and conceptual approaches. The results of this study indicate that ASEAN Cross Border Insolvency can be formed immediately as a bankruptcy regulation in the ASEAN region to ensure legal certainty for the parties.
