Abstract: The recent introduction of Hybrid Annuity Model (HAM) for highway up gradation projects in India marks a significant policy departure. This is aimed at revitalizing private sector led infrastructure development. The model has been pitched as a panacea to the numerous ills plaguing the highway sector, which had led to a record fall in the award of new projects, both in numbers and in value. Taking a dispassionate look, this paper critically examines the extent to which HAM has fulfilled its stated objectives during its introductory stage. The analysis of project award data provides mixed empirical evidence of HAM’s initial success. We find that as a development imperative, HAM does encourage private participation in highway infrastructure, and it is a step forward. However, HAM also suffers from extensive de-risking of the private sector, to the extent of making them unattractive for both debt and equity investment. By this, HAM takes the re-engagement of private sector two steps back. We concede that HAM is still in its infancy and a true performance would only be evident once enough number of projects have been delivered through this model. With this view, this paper adopts a more analytical stance, to identify possible pitfalls based upon the tell-tale signs. This is important as infrastructure projects have a long-life cycle, and an early stage dispassionate analysis and course correction is necessary, lest we move too far down the wrong path. Keywords: Hybrid Annuity Model, Road development, Financial model, Influencing factor
The Influence of TAP MPR's Position on The Hierarchy System of Indonesian Laws and Regulations
Authors: Gustama Briliant , Al-Fatih Sholahuddin , Sarita Sarita
Published: April 2022

This study aims to analyze the influence of TAP MPR in Indonesia. Placement of MPR Provisions in Law No. 12 of 2011 on the hierarchy of Legislation in Indonesia becomes one of the problematics that needs to be discussed, on the grounds of the position of MPR provisions that are under exactly the Constitution of 1945. This is based on the position of the MPR Decree itself which will automatically become a reference to the rules under it, in accordance with the theory of stairs put forward by Hans Kelsen. Although from the point of view of the position of MPR determination is still understandable if Hans Nawiasky theory is used as the basis. But in terms of testing itself of course this will raise a big question mark for all of us because in the Constitution of 1945 institutions or institutions that have the right to conduct a test of the Law is the Constitutional Court and the Supreme Court, but within its own scope the Provision of MPR is outside the juridical territory of the two Institutions themselves. Therefore, there needs to be a solution if at any time the MPR Decree is not in accordance with the basis of the 1945 Constitution so that there will be no defects in one of the legal sources of the State of Indonesia.
Abstrak
Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh TAP MPR di Indonesia. Penempatan Ketentuan MPR dalam Undang-Undang Nomor 12 Tahun 2011 tentang Hierarki Peraturan Perundang-undangan di Indonesia menjadi salah satu problematika yang perlu dibahas, dengan alasan kedudukan ketetapan MPR yang berada di bawah UUD 1945. Hal ini berdasarkan posisi Ketetapan MPR sendiri yang secara otomatis akan menjadi acuan aturan di bawahnya, sesuai dengan teori tangga yang dikemukakan oleh Hans Kelsen. Meski dari sudut pandang posisi penentuan MPR masih bisa dimaklumi jika teori Hans Nawiasky dijadikan dasar. Namun dalam hal pengujian sendiri tentunya hal ini akan menimbulkan tanda tanya besar bagi kita semua karena dalam UUD 1945 lembaga atau lembaga yang berhak melakukan uji materi UU adalah Mahkamah Konstitusi dan Mahkamah Agung, namun dalam lingkupnya sendiri Ketentuan MPR berada di luar wilayah yuridis kedua Lembaga itu sendiri. Oleh karena itu, perlu ada solusi jika sewaktu-waktu Ketetapan MPR tidak sesuai dengan dasar UUD 1945 sehingga tidak akan terjadi cacat pada salah satu sumber hukum Negara Indonesia.

Programmed cell death in the epithelial cells of the nasal mucosa in allergic rhinitis
Authors: Liu Ziyu , Sun Liwei , Li Yanan , Zhang Ying
Published: April 2022

Abstract In allergic rhinitis (AR), the epithelial barrier
composed of nasal mucosal epithelial cells is the first line of defense,
which is crucial to protect the host immune system from harmful stimuli.
Moreover, irreversible structural changes in nasal mucosal epithelial
cells can occur in response to different allergens, but the mechanism
leading to such abnormal changes has not been determined. Programmed
cell death is regulated by genes and interacts with multiple cell
signaling pathways. To explore the regulatory mechanism and signal
pathway of programmed cell death in epithelial cells of allergic
rhinitis, is helpful to clarify the pathogenesis of AR and put forward
treatment strategies. In this paper, the regulation mechanisms of
programmed cell death such as apoptosis, pyroptosis, and autophagy
occurring in epithelial cells in AR, are retrospectively summarized to
better understand the pathogenesis of AR. FIG. 1 Programmed cell death

Published: April 2022

Recurrence after conservative resection of pleomorphic adenoma is a rare
and late phenomenon that poses a difficult management problem. All
recurrences at 6 years after capsular dissection were detected
clinically (recurrence rate 3.2%). Magnetic resonance imaging failed to
detect early occult recurrences after conservative surgery and thus a
“single shot” imaging modality for follow up is not recommended.
Regular ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging have been used after
surgery for early detection of a recurrence. The pickup rate is low so
the additional cost and effort of radiological surveillance is not
justified. Follow up after parotid surgery for pleomorphic adenoma
remains clinical. There may be a benefit in regular surveillance imaging
of high risk patients (prior enucleation or resection after recurrence).

Authors: Keizman Eitan , Frogel Jonathan K. , Ram Eilon , Volvovitch David , Jamal Tamer , Levin Shany , Raanani Ehud , Sternik Leonid , Kogan Alexander
Published: April 2022

Background and aim of the study: A regular post-cardiac surgery
course does not require a prolonged stay in the cardiac surgery
intensive care unit (ICU). However, a complicated postoperative period,
can lead to prolonged ICU stay and prolonged ventilation, and may
require a tracheostomy. Nonetheless, there is currently no consensus
regarding the proper timing of tracheostomy. Data regarding long-term
outcomes of early versus late tracheostomy are limited. This study
represents the largest single-center experience with post-cardiac
surgery tracheostomy. The aim of this study was to assess the timing of
tracheostomy as a risk factor for mortality. Methods:
This is a retrospective study of prospectively collected data. Patients
were divided into three groups according to the timing of tracheostomy;
early (4-10 days); intermediate (11-20 days) and late (≤21 days). The
primary outcomes were early, intermediate, and long-term mortality. For
statistical analysis we use multivariable Cox proportional hazards
model. Results: Between 09.2004 and 08.2021, 12,782
patients underwent cardiac surgery at our institution, of whom 407
(3.18%) required postoperative tracheostomy. 147 (36.1%) had early,
195 (47.9%) intermediate and 65 (16%) late tracheostomy. The three
groups were similar regarding their baseline characteristics and
operative data. Early, 30-day and in-hospital mortality was similar for
all groups. However, patients, who underwent early- and intermediate
tracheostomy, demonstrating statistically significant lower mortality
after 1- and 5-year (42.8%; 57.4%; 64.6%; and 55.8%; 68.7%; 75.4%,
respectively; p<0.001). In our patient’s cohort Cox
model show age [1.025 (1.014-1.036)] and time to tracheostomy
[0.315 (0.159-0.757)] as significant factor for mortality.
Conclusions: This study demonstrates a relationship
between the timing of tracheostomy after cardiac surgery and mortality:
early tracheostomy within 4-10 days of mechanical ventilation associated
with better intermediate- and long-term survival. Short-term mortality
does not seem to be affected by the timing of tracheostomy. Optimal
timing of tracheostomy requires further evaluation.

Aims: We aimed to further evaluate the effectiveness and safety between
high-power short-duration (HPSD) radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and
conventional RFA in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods:
Studies comparing HPSD and conventional applications from inception
through December 2021 were searched on Pubmed, Medline, Cochrane and
Clinicaltrials.gov. Results: The meta-analysis included seventeen
studies with a total of 4934 patients. HPSD group decreased procedure
duration [mean difference (MD) -38.28 min, 95% confidence interval
(CI) -47.08 to -29.49, P＜0.001], RF duration (MD -20.51 min, 95% CI
-25.96 to -15.06, P＜0.001) and fluoroscopy duration (MD -5.19 min, 95%
CI -8.02 to -2.37, P＜0.001), while improving the rates of first-pass
isolation [Odds Ratio (OR) 8.92, 95% CI 2.40-33.09, P=0.009].
Compared with conventional group, freedom from atrial arrhythmia at
1-year-followup was higher in the HPSD group with a power setting of
40-50W (OR 1.93, 95% CI 1.27-2.91, P=0.002), nevertheless, two groups
had similar effectiveness with a power setting of 50W in the HPSD RFA
(OR 1.10, 95% CI 0.83-1.46, P=0.52). Acute pulmonary vein reconnection
(P＜0.001) was significantly lower in the HPSD group. There was no
difference in complications between the two groups (P=0.71). Conclusion:
HPSD RFA was associated with shorter procedure duration, higher freedom
from atrial arrhythmia and comparable safety when compared with
conventional RFA.
Innovative restoration for eutrophic drinking water sources: approaches, application and evaluation

Drinking water sources have higher water quality requirements because of
their special uses. Many drinking water sources in the world have been
polluted or are being polluted for a long time, resulting in
eutrophication. We define the approaches that have been developed in the
last 10 years and achieved good effect as innovative restoration
approaches. In this paper, the traditional, and frequently used
restoration approaches in recent 30 years were briefly reviewed, and the
innovative technologies and methods were summarized and evaluated in
detail. In light of the impact of COVID-19, we have also put forward
rational suggestions on water quality restoration of transboundary
rivers to provide scientific reference for global public health safety
and protection.
Driving Method for Improving Efficiency of transportation system based on long-stator Linear Motor
Authors: Jo Jeong-Min , Oh Ye-Jun , Lee Chang-Young , Lim Jung-Youl
Published: April 2022

The transportation system using the Long-stator linear motor propulsion
system has the advantage of directly transmitting propulsion force to
the vehicle regardless of adhesive friction at high speed, and is used
for high speed maglev. However, the initial installation cost is high
and as the length of the segmented stator increases, the operating
efficiency and power factor are low, resulting in an increase in the
capacity of the propulsion inverter and in operating costs. The paper
proposes a section switching method using BCT (Bi-directional Controlled
Thyristors) in order to minimize the length of the segmented stator. And
in order to verify the excellence of section switching method using BCT,
a small scale circular test-bed based on a linear motor was
manufactured. The experimental result showed that the output current of
the inverter fluctuates by motor impedance change when the vehicle moves
between stator blocks, and a current ripple occurs due to a position
error of the discontinuous position detection signal. In order to solve
these problems, a position estimator using full-state observer was
presented and the excellence was verified through a test using the
test-bed.

Objective To examine the change in maternal body mass index (BMI)
between the first two deliveries and outcomes in the second delivery.
Design Cohort study using electronic medical records. Setting and
population Medical records of women with their first two consecutive
deliveries between 2015 and 2020 at KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital,
Singapore were retrieved. Methods Analysis was limited to women with BMI
available for both pregnancies, which was standardised/adjusted to 12
weeks gestation. The difference between gestational-age-adjusted BMI in
both pregnancies was calculated as the change in interpregnancy BMI. The
risk ratios (RR) of pregnancy outcomes were estimated using modified
Poisson regression models with confounder adjustment. Main outcome
measures Low birthweight (<2.5 kg), high birthweight (≥4 kg),
small-for-gestational-age, large-for-gestational-age, preterm delivery,
gestational diabetes, elective and emergency caesarean deliveries.
Results Of 6264 included women with a median interpregnancy interval of
1.44 years, 40.7% had a stable BMI change within +1 kg/m2, 10.3% lost
>1 kg/m2, 34.3% gained 1-3 kg/m2 and 14.8% gained ≥3
kg/m2. Compared to women with stable BMI change, those with
>1 kg/m2 loss had a higher risk of low birthweight delivery
(RR 1.36; 95% confidence interval 1.02, 1.80), while those with 1-3
kg/m2 gain had higher risks of large-for-gestational-age birth (1.16;
1.03, 1.31), gestational diabetes (1.25; 1.06, 1.49) and emergency
caesarean delivery (1.16; 1.03, 1.31); these risks were higher in those
with ≥3 kg/m2 gain. Conclusion Our study demonstrated the importance of
returning to pre-pregnancy weight and maintaining a stable
interpregnancy BMI, to achieve better pregnancy outcomes.

Authors: Jovanovic-Medojevic Milica , Neskovic Jelena , Popovic-Bajic Marijana , Stratimirovic Djordje , Zivkovic Slavoljub
Published: April 2022

Introduction/Objective. of this study is to use scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis to examine surfaces of new and same sets of Ni-Ti instruments after canal preparations, to check their suspectability to corrosion. Methods. In this study, we used five different endodontic Ni-Ti instruments: K3, Mtwo, ProTaper Universal, HyFlex and BioRaCe. Instruments were analyzed before and after preparation of canals of different curvature, using SEM (150?2000 ?). Results. Corrosion of the working part was observed in 5.5% of new Ni-Ti instruments of the K3 system (apical and middle segment), in 5.5% of Mtwo instruments (apical third), and in 11.1% of ProTaper Universal systems (apical and middle third). Corrosion was not observed on the new instruments of the HyFlex and BioRaCe kits. After instrumentation, disinfection, and sterilization, corrosion was observed in all sets of K3 and ProTaper Universal systems and in all HyFlex instruments of the first group. Corrosion was observed in the HyFlex system in the second group in 16.7% of instruments (apical and middle third) and in the third 83.3% in the apical and 66.7% in the middle segment. In the Mtwo set, corrosion was observed in 16.7% of instruments in the first (apical and middle third), in the second group in 33.3% of instruments in the apical part and 50% in the middle third, while in the third group, corrosion was observed in 16.7% of instruments in the middle third of instruments. Conclusion. Rotary Ni-Ti instruments K3 and ProTaper Universal are susceptible to corrosion in a very high percentage. Ni-Ti systems with post-heat treatment of the working part (HyFlex) are somewhat more resistant to corrosion, while in Ni-Ti systems with electropolished surface (BioRaCe), corrosion is not observed.

Published: April 2022

Objective: To assess test-retest reliability and validity of a new diagnostic device, the Shoulder Elbow Perturbator, to quantify muscle weakness, abnormal synergy, (muscle activity-related) spasticity, and changes in viscoelastic joint properties of the elbow.Subjects: Stroke patients, adults with cerebral palsy and healthy controls.Methods: Test-retest reliability was evaluated using intra-class correlations (ICC) and assessment of measurement error. The device’s validity was evaluated by demonstrating differences between patients and healthy controls, and correlations of spasticity and abnormal synergy outcomes using the clinical Modified Tardieu Scale, the Fugl-Meyer Assessment, and the Test of Arm Selective Control.Results: Reliability was excellent, with an ICC > 0.75 for synergy and ICCs > 0.90 for all other impairments, with relatively small measurement errors. Validity was confirmed by group differences between patients and healthy controls for muscle weakness, spasticity, and viscoelastic joint properties, but not for abnormal synergy. Correlation analysis with clinical scales confirmed validity for spasticity, while, for synergy, correlations were found in the patients with stroke, but not those with cerebral palsy.Conclusion: This new diagnostic device is a reliable and valid instrument to assess multiple upper limb impairments in patients with neurological conditions, supporting its use in clinical practice. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings.
LAY ABSTRACTReliable and valid quantitative measurement of arm impairments due to neurological conditions is important for clinical decision-making. Current clinical measurement tools are subjective and not reliable. The aim of this study was therefore to assess the reliability and validity of a new diagnostic device to quantify multiple arm impairments (muscle weakness, abnormal synergy, spasticity, changes in viscoelastic joint properties) in patients with stroke, adults with cerebral palsy (CP), and healthy controls. Reliability was excellent for all impairments and was analysed by testing the consistency of the results on 2 occasions in the same subject. Validity was confirmed by group differences between patients and healthy controls for all impairments, except for synergy. Also, correlations of the results with clinical measurement tools were found for spasticity and synergy, except for synergy in patients with CP. In conclusion, this new diagnostic device is a reliable and valid instrument to assess multiple impairments of the elbow in patients with neurological conditions. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Background: Enzymes have been used for therapeutic applications for decades owing to their anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. Probiotics are well known to reduce the incidence and severity of several health-related conditions. To our knowledge, no clinical trial has evaluated the effects of a combination of systemic enzyme and probiotic supplementation in Covid-19 patients infected with the SARSCoV-2 virus. Objective: We investigated the safety and efficacy of the health supplements ImmunoSEB (systemic enzyme complex) and ProbioSEB CSC3 (probiotic complex) as supplemental therapy in confirmed mild to moderate COVID-19 patients. Methods: A randomized, open label, 2-arm, prospective study in patients with an RT-PCR confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 with a mild to moderate condition was conducted. The control arm (n=30) received standard of care (SOC) treatment and the test arm (n=30) received the oral supplements ImmunoSEB (500 mg/cap.) + ProbioSEB CSC3 (5 billion CFUs /cap.) for 14 days in addition to SOC. The efficacy and safety of the experimental regimen was compared with the control arm at various timepoints from days 1 to 21. Results: A significantly higher proportion of patients in the test arm showed clinical improvement on day 10 vs the controls (93.33% vs 60%; p<0.05). No adverse events were reported in the test arm at any time during the study suggesting the safety of supplementation with ImmunoSEB + ProbioSEB CSC3. Patients in the test arm also had a shorter duration of hospitalization, quicker recovery and faster reduction in CRP levels as compared to the control arm. Conclusions: The present study concludes that supplemental therapy with ImmunoSEB + ProbioSEB CSC3 accelerates clinical improvement in mild to moderate COVID-19 patients. While there is no vaccine or specific drug to completely cure SARS CoV-2 infection, the proposed supplemental therapy could be a potential tool to aid in the recovery of COVID-19 of patients.

Este artigo problematiza a conexão da Biologia e da Matemática, considerando a prática pedagógica, por meio de uma revisão bibliográfica a partir da busca de produções que descrevem situações da relação da Biologia e da Matemática, considerando práticas efetivas pautadas nessa relação, utilizadas para potencializar principalmente o ensino de conteúdos de Genética na educação básica. A coleta de dados foi realizada utilizando-se para a pesquisa as bases de dados: Biblioteca digital USP – Teses e Dissertações, Acervo UNESP e no Portal de Periódicos Capes/MEC, dentro de um recorte temporal entre os anos de 2010 a 2020. Os resultados apontam existir escassez de pesquisas com foco na relação destas duas unidades curriculares associadas a práticas de ensino e aprendizagem. Observa-se a importância da conexão entre a Biologia e Matemática em situações de ensino e de aprendizagem e a relevância de se buscar que o aluno seja autônomo, reflexivo no seu processo de aprendizagem.

Craft beer revolution: formation of a new segment in Slovakia
Authors: Savov Radovan , Szarková Xénia
Published: March 2022

Research background: Globalization has significantly affected the brewing sector worldwide during the last three decades. The industry consolidation and many acquisitions led to a reduced number of breweries and consequently to the homogenization of beer. It was an important factor affecting the significant decline in beer consumption in the world. However, over the years, this negative phenomenon also brought a new wave ? the development of craft breweries, and resulted in the formation of a new segment with specific preferences in the market.
Purpose of the article: As a result of the craft beer revolution in the world and the wider offer on the beer market, customer preferences changed, and a new segment was subsequently formatted. In the past, lagers were the preferred choice, but due to the new wider range of beers offered in the market, they are about to lean towards other types of beer. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to identify a new segment of craft beer consumers based on characteristics such as age, gender, education, income, residence, marital status, work, and leisure activities.
Methods: For data collection, a questionnaire was used as a tool and, therefore, we analyzed the answers of 685 respondents from Slovakia. The questionnaire is evaluated through dependency analysis using nonparametric methods (Kruskal-Wallis Test, Mann-Whitney Test) to identify the differences between groups of customers and to describe the characteristics of a typical consumer of craft beer.
Findings & value added: The craft beer revolution in the world brought a formation of a new segment, which considers the taste and quality more compared to price. Our research has confirmed that this segment consists of highly educated men (26?40 years old), with above average income. However, it is important for beer producers to know this segment more to meet its requirements. Nevertheless, deeper studies of this segment were missing. Therefore, our research was focused on other parameters of the segment and according to our findings, these consumers are from bigger cities, working more mentally, and doing sports in leisure time.
La mujer y la paz y la seguridad: algunas cuestiones jurídicas a 21 años de la adopción de la resolución 1325 del Consejo de Seguridad de Naciones Unidas
Authors: Llanos Mardones Hugo Ignacio
Published: April 2022

La resolución 1325 (2000) del Consejo de Seguridad lanzó en Naciones Unidas la Agenda de la mujer y la paz y la seguridad. Un conjunto de diez resoluciones ha contribuido a consolidar la Agenda, creando un corpus juris que desarrolla y, en ocasiones, revisa normas del derecho internacional, incorporando una perspectiva de género en el conflicto armado y en el post-conflicto. Desde un inicio se presentaron divergencias entre algunos aspectos de la Agenda y el derecho internacional humanitario. El desarrollo normativo se ha realizado a través de instrumentos de soft law. La resolución 1325 (2000) ha sido el punto de partida de una norma consuetudinaria que incorpora la perspectiva de género en el derecho internacional humanitario y el derecho internacional de los derechos humanos. A partir de la resolución 1820 (2008) la violencia sexual contra las mujeres y niñas en un conflicto armado y en el post-conflicto es una cuestión que atañe al mantenimiento de la paz y la seguridad internacionales en el sentido de la Carta de Naciones Unidas. La Agenda ha impactado las relaciones con fuentes convencionales del derecho internacional.

Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui permasalahan tentang konflik kepemilikan lahan baik antar masyarakat-pemerintah, masyarakat-swasta, masyarakat-masyarakat. Dalam tulisan ini, penulis melihat konflik itu mewujud antar masyarakat dan pemerintah. Keluarnya keputusan Menteri Kehutanan R.I No. Sk.5536/Menhut-VII/KUH/20114 tanggal 2 September 2014 tentang Penetapan Kawasan Hutan pada Kelompok Hutan Niniconnang di Kabupaten Soppeng Propinsi Sulawesi Selatan, adalah dasar sangkaan aparat penegak hukum menindak masyarakat yang mengelola lahan kehutanan di Kabupaten Soppeng. Konflik agraria pun berujung di meja pengadilan dengan 3 dakwaan berbentuk alternatif, mengenai pengrusakan lahan kehutanan yang tertuang di Undang-Undang No. 18 Tahun 2013 tentang Pencegahan dan Pemberantasan Perusakan hutan (UU P3H). Hasil penelitian membuktian fakta-fakta hukum dalam persidangan, putusan hakim membebaskan terdakwa sebagaimana ketentuan yang diatur dalam Pasal 191 ayat (1) KUHAP dikatakan, bahwa yang dimaksud perbuatan yang didakwakan kepadanya tidak terbukti secara sah dan meyakinkan dalam putusan bebas adalah tidak cukup terbukti menurut penilaian hakim atas dasar pembuktian dengan menggunakan alat bukti menurut ketentuan hukum acara pidana.
