ANALISIS PASAL 222 UNDANG-UNDANG NOMOR 7 TAHUN 2017 TENTANG PEMILU BERKAITAN DENGAN PRESIDENTIAL THRESHOLD DALAM SISTEM PEMILU DI INDONESIA
Authors: Satrio Nugroho
Published: November 2023

Tulisan ini dimaksudnya untuk menelaah presidential threshold dalam hubungannya dengan pemilu serentak 2019. Pasca putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Nomor 14/PUU-XI/2013 yang mengamanatkan pemilu serentak menimbulkan pro dan kontra tentang pengaturan presidential threshold. Dalam prespektif konstitusi, menggunakan atau tidak menggunakan presidential threshold sesungguhnya tidak bertentangan dengan konstitusi, karena presidential threshold merupakan kebijakan hukum terbuka dari pembentuk Undang-Undang. Pembentuk Undang-Undang perlu memikirkan kembali tentang ketentuan presidential threshold terutama dalam hubungannya denga pemilu serentak, dengan mempertimbangkan kelebihan dan kekurangan dalam penerapan atau penghapusan presidential threshold, agar tujuan untuk memperkuat sistem presidensial dapat tercapai. Adanya pemilu serentak sejatinya secara substansi telah menghapuskan ketentuan presidential threshold, sehingga persyaratan ambang batas untuk mencalonkan Presiden dan Wakil Presiden menjadi tidak relevan. Namun, apabila pembentuk Undang-Undang menghendaki adanya presidential threshold, maka jalan tengah yang dapat dipilih adalah menerapkan presidential threshold dengan menggunakan perolehan suara pemilu legislatif 2014 dengan catatan melembagakan koalisi.

Assimetrias de rendimentos na Região Nordeste: gênero e raça entre as desigualdades persistentes
Authors: Fonseca Edna Silva , da Silva Kecia Cristina Miranda , de Sousa Filho José Firmino
Published: November 2023

Os desequilíbrios regionais e de rendimentos do trabalho são problemáticas persistentes no contexto brasileiro. Este artigo analisa os diferenciais de rendimentos no mercado de trabalho na Região Nordeste nos períodos de 2012, 2016 e 2019, a partir dos microdados da Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios Contínua (PNAD Contínua), do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE). Destacam-se os principais componentes que contribuíram para as distorções de rendimentos entre os grupos classificados por gênero e cor/raça, por meio da decomposição salarial proposta por Oaxaca e Blinder (1973) com a correção do viés de seleção de Heckman (1979), em conjunto com a normalização de Yun (2003). Os resultados indicam que os desequilíbrios salariais motivados por gênero se devem em maior grau ao efeito residual em todos os períodos analisados. Pelo critério racial, as diferenças salariais em detrimento dos não brancos foram ocasionadas em maior medida pelos efeitos dotacionais. Ao contrapor as estimações pelos critérios de gênero e raça, homens versus mulheres não brancas, o diferencial de rendimento recua no período final da análise. No entanto, os rendimentos dessas mulheres continuam depreciados pela maior contribuição do componente discriminatório. Esta pesquisa, portanto, contribui para identificar aspectos relacionados às assimetrias salariais ainda marcantes na sociedade brasileira e discute como amenizar tais questões que ainda hoje são persistentes. Palavras-chave: decomposição salarial; desigualdades; gênero; raça; Nordeste.

Neuroticism and Fibromyalgia Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Authors: Vesal Mina , Asgari karim , Roohafza Hamidreza , Adibi Sedeh Peyman
Published: November 2023

Context: Neuroticism is associated with a heightened experience of bodily sensations and pain. This suggests that psychosocial factors can affect biological mechanisms. However, it is unclear whether fibromyalgia (FM) is associated with neuroticism and how these factors may be related. Objectives: This study attempted to incorporate recent studies on fibromyalgia and neuroticism to comprehensively explain it. Methods: In this systematic review and meta-analysis based on the PRISMA guidelines (2020), PubMed, Psych INFO, Social Sciences, Scopus, ProQuest, and Google Scholar were searched for quantitative studies published up to August 31, 2022. Results: Nineteen cross-sectional studies met the meta-analytic inclusion criteria, totaling 7,881 participants. The meta-analysis demonstrated high levels of neuroticism in fibromyalgia patients compared with control groups (Hedges’ g = 0.78; 95% CI = 0.54 − 1.02; P < 0.001). This meta-analysis provides evidence of the role of neuroticism as a contributing factor in the development and manifestation of fibromyalgia. Meta-regression and subgroup analyses were also conducted to investigate the potential moderators that might have influenced the effect size. The results of the meta-regression and subgroup analyses revealed that the health condition of the control group and the sex of the participants were significant moderators affecting the effect size. Conclusions: The results suggest that neuroticism should be specifically assessed and targeted in fibromyalgia interventions, especially in women. Furthermore, there should be particular emphasis on the mechanisms through which neuroticism may contribute to an increased risk of persistent pain and somatic complaints. As a result, fibromyalgia patients with high neuroticism levels should receive multimodal interventions to address neuroticism.

Published: November 2023

21. yüzyıl mimarlık pratiğinde yapıların kullanım enerjilerini %50 oranında düşürebilen uyarlanabilir kinetik cephe sistemleri (UKCS) ön plana çıkmaktadır. Literatürde çoğunlukla kullanım enerjileri üzerinden incelenen bu sistemlerin sahip oldukları gömülü enerjiler bağlamında kısıtlı sayıda çalışma bulunmaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında sürdürülebilir bir yaklaşımın geliştirilebilmesi için UKCS’lerin performans değerleri yitirilmeden gömülü enerjilerinin değerlendirilmesi ve azaltılması amaçlanmıştır. Bu bağlamda diğer malzemelere göre daha yüksek gömülü enerjiye sahip olan alüminyum ve paslanmaz çelik gibi malzemelerden imal edilmiş bileşenlerin aynı seviyede performans değerlerini sağlayabilecek ahşap esaslı malzemeler gibi gömülü enerjisi görece daha düşük olan malzemeler ile değiştirildiği varsayılmıştır. Konunun sayısal veriler üzerinden incelenebilmesi için bir yapı cephesi değerlendirilmiştir. Yapı seçimi konusunda gömülü enerji bakımından cephenin hangi malzemeden üretilmiş olduğuna ve güvenlik açısından da cephenin yüksekliğine dikkat edilmiştir. Bu koşullara uyan Kiefer Teknik Galerisi UKCS’si çalışma kapsamında incelenmiştir. Cephe sistemi alüminyum paneller, alüminyum raylar, paslanmaz çelik konsollar ve paslanmaz çelik ızgaralar olmak üzere dört temel bileşene ayrılmıştır. Bu dört bileşenin toplam gömülü enerjileri literatürdeki teknik çizimler, bilgiler ve fotoğraflar aracılığı ile hesaplanmıştır. Avrupa Standartlarına (EN 15804:2012) göre UKCS’nin hammadde temini için gereken enerji (raw material supply, A1) tespit edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler ile UKCS tasarımında gömülü enerjiyi azaltabilmenin yolları, alternatif malzemeler ve detaylandırma prensipleri ile tartışılmış ve bir detay önerilmiştir. Önerilen detay sayesinde UKCS’nin toplam gömülü enerjisinin % 52 oranında düşürülebileceği hesaplanmıştır. Bu sayede tasarım aşamasında yalnızca malzeme tercihleri değiştirilerek UKCS’lerin gömülü enerjilerinin düşürülebileceği ve UKCS tasarımlarında performans verileri göz önünde tutularak malzeme nitelikleri ve malzemelerin gömülü enerjilerine dikkat edilmesinin önemi vurgulanmıştır.

This research examines fashion from Islamic and Christian views. The methodology used in this research is qualitative with a library research research design. And the data sources obtained from this research are primary and secondary data sources that are in accordance with the discussion. Then this research uses a phenomenological approach method, where the phenomenological approach method is an approach that attempts to capture various problems that exist in society. Meanwhile, the theoretical approach is a comparative-descriptive theory. This research aims to explore how religion regulates its people in fashion, especially clothing, and also to find out whether there are similarities and differences in clothing in Islam and Christianity. Based on this research, the results showed that dressing in Islam and Christianity requires women to dress to cover their bodies and requires women to wear clothing appropriate for women. In Islam, there is more emphasis on dressing to cover the private parts, the clothes worn are thick and loose, not tasyabbuh, not required to wear fragrance/perfume, not glamorous clothes and not as jewelry. And the essence of clothing for Muslim women is to cover their private parts, not for the purpose of showing off and arrogance which will have a bad impact on themselves. Christianity emphasizes on its followers to dress appropriately and fulfill the requirements stated in the Bible.

The purpose of this study was to examine effect of the Self-Management Promotion Program (SMPP) on blood pressure and body mass index of persons with prehypertension and obesity. This study applied a two-group quasi-experimental with pretest and posttest design. Sixty-six persons with prehypertension and obesity were randomly assigned to either the experimental or control group by using drawing lots, consisting of 33 participants in each group. The participants in the experimental group participated in the SMPP and conventional care, while those in the control group received the conventional care. The SMPP was designed to enhance knowledge and promote management of health behaviors in participants to reduce risk factors of hypertension including poor eating and lack of exercise. The SMPP comprised three phases: 1) health assessment and motivation, 2) self-management skill training, and 3) self-management practice monitoring. The participants in the experimental and control groups were assessed blood pressure and body mass index at baseline and the 12th week. Data was analyzed using the independent t-test and the paired t-test. The findings revealed that the participants in the experiment group had lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure than those in the control group (p<.05). In addition, after participating in the SMPP, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and body mass index in the experimental group were significantly lower than before participating in the SMPP. These findings indicated that the SMPP was an effective nursing intervention to reduce systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and body mass index for persons with prehypertension and obesity.
Oral epithelial-derived mediators suppress RANKL expression in human mandibular-derived bone cells

Published: November 2023

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) accumulates in inflamed periodontal tissue and induces RANKL/RANK/OPG signaling associated with bone resorption. Although oral epithelial cells maintain tissue homeostasis, the role of oral epithelial cells in RANKL regulation remains unknown. To investigate the epithelial mediators involved in regulating RANKL expression in PGE2-stimulated human mandibular bone-derived cells (HMBCs) and RANKL driven osteoclastic-cell activity. HMBCs were stimulated with 0.1 μM PGE2 for 24 h to increase RANKL expression. Concurrently, cells were treated with epithelial supernatant containing constitutively released or P.gingivalis Lipopolysaccharide (PgLPS)-stimulated epithelial mediators, or recombinant IFN-γ. Some cells were pretreated with an anti-IFN-γ antibody before PGE2 stimulation. The expression of RANKL, OPG, and inflammation-related cytokines was assessed by quantitative PCR, and proteins levels were evaluated by ELISA and western blot. THP-1 human monocytes and HMBCs were cocultured to determine the ability of HMBCs to drive THP-1 differentiation into osteoclast-like cells. Osteoclast function was determined using a bone resorption pit assay. PGE2 significantly increased RANKL mRNA expression and RANKL protein in HMBCs dose-dependently, however, the OPG protein levels remained similar. Epithelial cells constitutively released IFN-γ, which was substantially increased by PgLPS. HMBCs treated with epithelial supernatant or recombinant IFN-γ, concurrently with PGE2 stimulation, reduced RANKL, but not OPG, expression similar to baseline. In contrast, the anti-IFN-γ antibody reversed the effect of the epithelial mediators on RANKL expression. THP-1 osteoclast activity increased when cocultured with PGE2-stimulated HMBCs. However, epithelial-derived IFN-γ decreased PGE2-induced RANKL expression in HmBCs, resulting in decreased THP-1-derived osteoclast activity. PGE2 stimulation significantly increases RANKL expression in HMBCs. However, recombinant IFN-γ, or IFN-γ derived from oral epithelial cells, suppresses RANKL expression at both the mRNA and protein level. Therefore, oral epithelial cells, by releasing IFN-γ, suppress RANKL upregulation in HMBCs and reduce osteoclast activity.
Effect of low level laser stimulation on salivary gland function in diabetic patients with hyposalivation

Published: November 2023

Saliva plays several functions and the most important roles among of those are the lubrication and the protection by defensive proteins. Salivary gland hypofunction showed a high prevalence in patient with diabetes. Previous studies indicated that protein mucin 5B concentration, which is important to lubrication, tended to decrease in hyposalivation patients and a decrease in histatin 5 was found in disease with fungal infection. The several previous studies indicated that low level laser therapy (LLLT) can stimulate salivary gland function with an increase in salivary flow rate in systemic disease patients with dry mouth complication. Therefore, LLLT may be applied as the treatment choice for patients with dry mouth symptom. This study aimed to investigate the effect of low-level laser stimulation on salivary gland function in diabetic patients with hyposalivation. The assessment of  salivary flow rates, mucin 5B (MUC5B), mucin 7 (MUC7), histatin 5 concentrations, and questionnaires were performed.  A total of twelve diabetic patients under criteria set in this study at Bangkok Hospital were participated on a voluntary basis. A low power laser was used to stimulate major salivary glands with an irradiation time of 40 s on 6 occasions (3 times in 2 consecutive weeks). Questionnaire related to dry mouth symptoms were given. Salivary flow rates and questionnaire were assessed as well as MUC7, MUC5B, and histatin 5 protein concentration in saliva at the 1st visit, 6th visit, and 6th week follow-up visit. The unstimulated salivary flow rate and MUC5B concentration at the 6th week follow-up visit were significantly increased compare with at the 1st visit. By contrast, the concentration of histatin 5 exhibited a significant decrease at the 6th week follow-up visit compare with at the 1st visit . The mean dry mouth score revealed a significant decrease regarding to dry mouth symptoms at the 6th visit and 6th week follow-up visit compared with at the 1st visit. The correlation between overall dry mouth score and flow rate showed the strongest positive correlation at the 6th visit. There were no significant differences found on stimulated salivary flow rate and MUC7 concentration. Our results indicate a beneficial effect of LLLT on diabetic patients in increasing salivary flow rate and maintaining oral lubrication.

Published: November 2023

Objective: This study aims to investigate an adaptation of acid production of S. mutans to long-term exposure to human breast milk (HBM).

Materials and Methods: S. mutans UA 159 were grown in pooled HBM from 11 mothers. To create the adaptation condition, S. mutans were sub-cultured up to the 15th passage (11 hours/passage) in HBM, BHI supplemented HBM (HBM+BHI) and BHI control. The bacterial cells were collected at the baseline (the 0 passage), the 1st, 5th, 9th, 13th and 15th passage to immediately determine the acid production and growth in HBM and 7% sucrose supplemented BHI (BHI+Sucrose). The pH and the number of bacteria were measured every hour for 6 hours and after 12 hours of incubation. The acid production rate was calculated at the fastest pH-dropping duration.

Results: The acid production in HBM and in BHI+Sucrose of S. mutans was changed after exposure to all three media for 11 hours (the 1 passage). The acid production in HBM of HBM and HBM+BHI grown cells reached the critical pH of enamel after 2-3 hours which was faster than the baseline HBM (4 hours). The acid production rate in HBM and in BHI+Sucrose of all tested group was not significant difference. Moreover, the longer period of exposure was performed; there was not obvious discrepancy of acid production among the 1st through the 15th passage.

Conclusion: After exposure to HBM, S. mutans increase its ability to utilize HBM leading to the shorter time to reach critical pH than its usual condition.
