egitimación de la empresa para recurrir en suplicación en el proceso por sanciones y límites al control judicial sobre el poder disciplinario empresarial.
Authors: Martínez Moya Juan
Published: February 2022

La empresa tiene legitimación para recurrir en suplicación la sentencia que confirma judicialmente la calificación de la falta como muy grave, pero revoca la sanción impuesta. El gravamen justifica la legitimación para el recurso. Se reitera la doctrina que limita el control del juez solo a la calificación de la falta y no a la elección de la sanción que solo corresponde a la empresa cuando judicialmente se ha apreciado que resulta ajustada a normas legales o convencionales.
L'entreprise a le droit de accès aux recours de la sentence qui confirme judiciairement la qualification de l'infraction comme très grave, mais révoque la sanction imposée. Le préjudice justifie la qualité pour l'appel. C'est la doctrine réitérée de la Cour suprême qui limite le contrôle du juge à la seule qualification de la faute et non au choix de la sanction qui ne correspond qu'à l'entreprise lorsqu'il a été judiciairement apprécié qu'elle s'ajuste aux normes légales ou conventionnelles.
La Resolución del INSS declarativa de la incapacidad permanente total prevista en el art. 49.1.e) ET extingue el contrato de trabajo sin necesidad de comunicación formal de la empresa, no resultando aplicable lo preceptuado en el art. 55 ET.
Authors: Ballester Pastor Inmaculada
Published: February 2022

La Resolución del INSS que declara a un trabajador pensionista de IPT -ex. art. 49.1.e) ET- es inmediatamente ejecutiva, no siendo exigible lo preceptuado en el art. 55 ET para que el contrato quede válidamente extinguido. Asimismo, la posibilidad de compatibilizar el trabajo con la IPT no obliga tampoco a ofrecer la empresa al implicado una novación del contrato dado que la mentada novación precisa un acuerdo previo o una imposición vía convenio colectivo.
The INSS Resolution declaring an IPT-ex. art. 49.1.e) ET- is immediately enforceable. It is not necessary to use the provisions of art. 55 ET for the contract to be validly terminated. Likewise, the possibility of making work compatible with the IPT on the part of the pensioner does not oblige the company to offer the person involved a novation of the contract, since the aforementioned novation requires a prior agreement or an imposition via a collective agreement.
Límites a la adaptación de jornada para la conciliación de la vida familiar (art. 34.8 ET).
Authors: Viqueira Pérez Carmen
Published: February 2022

La regulación del derecho a adaptar la jornada compele a la empresa a acoger la propuesta del trabajador o, en su defecto, a ofrecer alternativas a esa propuesta, admitiéndose la negativa de la empresa sólo en última instancia y sólo cuando ésta pueda legitimar su oposición en la existencia de una "razón objetiva". Acerca de la negativa empresarial gira la sentencia comentada.
The regulation of the right to adapt the working time compels the company to accept the worker's proposal or, at least, to offer alternatives to that proposal, admitting the refusal of the company only as a last resort and only when it was possible to legitimize this opposition under the existence of an "objective reason." The commented sentence turns about that refusal of the worker´s proposal.
Politik Kekerabatan Dalam Keterwakilan Perempuan Pada Rekrutmen Politik Partai Nasdem Pada Pemilu 2019
Authors: Siti Zaetun  , Mar'iyah Chusnul
Published: February 2022

The big wave of the women's movement in the world, apart from demanding rights and equality between men and women, also encourages women's representative participation in decision-making process. Previous studies often analyze women's representation based on cultural and institutional barriers without specifically showing the role of political parties in carrying out the gatekeeping activities, especially in women's candidacy. This article uses Pippa Norris' theory of political recruitment with descriptive qualitative analysis methods to analyze the increase in women's representation from Nasdem Party in the 2019 general elections. The results are (1) general election rules and political parties affect the increase in women's representation, (2) representation and women's interests have not become the main criteria in the political selection process of Nasdem Party, (3) the survey culture in the balancing of women's candidacy in addition to providing opportunities for female candidates also fostering kinship politics, (4) Nasdem’s  commitment to women's representation and interests is still untested, and the most obvious is (5) as a political commodity where an increase in the representation of women with kinship political backgrounds contributed to the increase in the votes of  Nasdem Party in the 2019 elections.

Background: Blood transfusion is one of the major concerns following Total Knee Arthroplasty. We assessed the incidence rate of blood transfusion (packed red cells) in our geographical group based on age, gender, preoperative Haemoglobin and following both unilateral and bilateral primary TKA done either in single-stage or sequentially after a week. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective observational study that included 200 patients who underwent primary TKA unilateral, bilateral done in single-stage and sequential from June 2015 to May 2016. Two doses of parenteral Tranexamic acid and periarticular cocktail injection was given. Transfusion was indicated with postoperative Hgb below 8 g/dl associated with or without clinical signs of tissue hypoperfusion. Results: The study group was 200 patients with the age group of 50-81 years, of which 154 (77%) were female and 46 (23%) were male and had a mean preoperative Hgb level of 12.6 g/dl. 88 (44%) unilateral, 40 (20%) bilateral and 72 (36%) sequential TKA were performed and 7 (7.95%), 12 (30%) and 26 (36%) patients received blood transfusion respectively. Among the transfused 45 patients, 38 patients were bilateral group, of which 30 (66.6%) patients had a preoperative Hgb level of 10–12 g/dl, indicating a high incidence of transfusion in bilateral cases compared to unilateral and with preoperative Hgb levels of 10–12g/dl which was statistically significant with p-value <0.05. Conclusion: In our study, age and gender were not the major factors for blood transfusion, but low preoperative Hgb levels and bilateral single stage and sequential TKA showed a significantly higher incidence of blood transfusion.

An account of Drosera section Lasiocephala
Authors: Nunn Richard , Lowrie Allen
Published: February 2022

Over the past two decades interest has grown in the tropical Drosera of northern Australia. As more botanical research is conducted in this remote region, new species have been described, new undescribed taxa discovered and we have gained a greater understanding of their ecology. Lowrie (1998) provided the first detailed account of Drosera section Lasiocephala, additional accounts were published in Lowrie (2014) and Lowrie et al. (2017), since then further field work has been undertaken, phylogenetic studies (Fleischmann et al. 2018), and a new species has been described (Baleeiro et al. 2020). The aim of this paper is to synthesize the current body of knowledge into the most up to date summary of this section, and draws extensively on previous text created by the authors (Lowrie 1998; Bourke & Nunn 2012; Lowrie 2014; Lowrie et al. 2017), with the addition of new studies (Fleischmann et al. 2018; Baleeiro et al. 2020) and many new images.
Additional features for the recently described Pinguicula (Lentibulariaceae) species from Spain
Authors: Roccia Aymeric
Published: February 2022

Two new butterwort species, Pinguicula casperiana and P. tejedensis, from Central Spain have been recently described, and the name P. submediterranea has been resurrected in the same publication. My article describing “P. conquensis” was under review at that time and this plant is exactly the same as P. casperiana. As it gives additional morphological diagnostic characters, it is worth bringing it to everyone’s attention for a better understanding of this species. Additional comments are made about P. submediterranea and P. tejedensis as those populations were also studied in my article: those names are here considered later synonyms of P. dertosensis. Pinguicula casperiana raises to eleven the number of Pinguicula species from Spain, being the sixth endemic to the Iberian Peninsula.

Authors: Parrilli Federico Ezequiel , Coppini María Victoria
Published: February 2022

In Argentina there are two species of carnivorous plants of the genus Pinguicula, P. antarctica, and P. australandina. These species, also present in Chile, have a distribution in Argentina limited to the Andean Patagonian Forest ecoregion, which ranges from southern Neuquén to Tierra del Fuego and Isla de los Estados. To date, no cases of overlap between these two Pinguicula species have been reported. Knowing the distribution of species is a key component to understanding their ecology and conservation. The study of the carnivorous plants of Argentina contributes to increase the knowledge of the native flora.

Published: February 2022

Objectives: To study the prevalence of fluoroquinolone-resistant and extended spectrum β-lactamase-producing isolates at Phramongkutklao Hospital, Thailand, and to identify the risk factors predicting the carriage of these organisms. Methods: Menundergoing transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy were prospectively enrolled between February and October2015. Rectal swab culture was obtained before antimicrobial prophylaxis andprostate biopsy. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the independent risk factors associated with antimicrobial-resistant flora. Results: In total, 99 patients underwent biopsy, of whom 38 (38.4%) had antimicrobial-resistant rectal flora,with 26 (26.3%) having fluoroquinolone-resistant rectal flora and12 (12.1%) having both fluoroquinolone-resistant rectal flora and extended spectrum β-lactamase.The incidence of postbiopsy infections was 6.1%. The use of antibiotics in the past 6 months was found in 23.7% of the resistant group vs.6.6% of the sensitive group(odds ratio = 4.86,p= 0.030),with the previous biopsy history being 31.6% and14.8% (odds ratio = 3.17, p= 0.036),respectively. Postbiopsy infectionsoccurred in13.2% and1% (odds ratio = 10.69,p= 0.045) of patients in the resistant and sensitive groups, respectively. Conclusions: The prevalence offluoroquinolone-resistant rectal flora increased in patients undergoing transrectal prostate biopsyat Phramongkutklao Hospital, Thailand. A history of antibiotics in the past 6 months, previous biopsy, andpostbiopsy infections were associated with antimicrobialresistance. Culture-directed prophylaxis antibiotics may reduce postbiopsy infections after transrectal prostate biopsy.

Published: February 2022

Background: : Retreating with prior chemotherapeutic regimens is a possible option for palliative treatment for patients with advanced stage colorectal cancer (CRC). Objective: This study aimed to examine the feasibility and clinical outcomes of oxaliplatin re-introduction therapy.

Methods: The present study was a prospective case series of patients with advanced stage colorectal adenocarcinoma who were previously treated and re-treated with oxaliplatin combination therapy at Phramongkutklao Hospital between April 1st, 2011 and March 30th, 2014. Treatment regimens are described below. First, FOLFOX4 (14-day cycles of oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2, folinic acid 200 mg/m2) was given days 1-2 plus fluorouracil 400 mg/m2 (bolus) and 600 mg/m2 (continuous 22 hours infusion). Second, modificd FOLFOX6 (oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2) was given day I with calcium folinate 400 mg/m2 as a 2-hour infusion followed by bolus 5-fluorouracil 400 mg/m2 and a 46-hour infusion of 5-fluorouracil 2,400 mg/m2). Similarly, XELOX (130 mg/m2 intravenous oxaliplatin) was provided for 2 hours day 1 plus oral capecitabine 1,000 mg m2 twice daily for 2 weeks from day 1. Treatment was continued until disease progression (PD), intolerability to therapy, poor performance status, withdrawal of consent or death occurred. Authors evaluated tolerability, feasibility, types and rate of untoward medical occurrences due to adverse reactions of PD.

Results: Thirteen patients with CRC were recruited in the study. The median cycles (range) of receiving oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy before re-introduction therapy was 8 (3-15) cycles. The median age (range) was 50 (27-78) years. Etiologies of treatment cessation were recorded by number of patients as follows: tumor progression (6), lost to follow-up (1), refused to receive further treatment (1), allergic reaction (2) and physical deterioration (2). Eflicacy of the treatment was assessed in 10 of 13 patients. Of 10 patients, 2 developed drug allergies and 1 was lost to follow-up. Six patients (60%) had PD while 4 patients (40%) had stabilized disease measured by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST).

Conclusion: Reintroducing oxaliplatin combination chemotherapy is one of the treatments in advanced stage CRC. In this study, physical deterioration and tumor progression were the main etiologies of treatment cessation.

Authors: Khuangsirikul Saradej , Popuk Sirapat , Heebthamai Danai , Phruetthiphat Ong-art , Chotanaphuti Thanainit
Published: February 2022

Background: Navio Surgical System, a newer-generation robotic technology, is an image-free roboticassisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) offering several advantages over older versions, including CT scan, the potential to dynamically assess soft tissue over a range of motion and the ability to use haptic control in bone preparation.

Objective: The study aimed to compare the accuracy of component alignment between image-free robotic-assisted and conventional TKA.

Methods: Forty patients were randomly assigned to two groups, 20 image-free robotic-assisted and 20 conventional TKA. The primary outcome was prosthetic alignment including mechanical axis alignment, epicondylar axis alignment and posterior tibial slope. The secondary outcomes included postoperative blood loss and operative time.

Results: Significant difference were found in the postoperative mechanical axis between the image-free robotic group and the conventional group (1.15°±1° vs. 1.88°±1.19° deviated from neutral mechanical alignment, p = 0.043). There was significant difference in femoral rotational alignment between groups (1.00°±0.75° vs. 2.33°±0.96° deviated from the epicondylar axis, p<0.001). The mean posterior tibial slope did not significantly differ (3.89°±1.66° vs. 4.12°±1.37°, p=0.639). The operative time in the image-free robotic group was significantly longer than that of the conventional group (102.80 ± 11.18 min vs. 62.90 ± 3.28 min, p <0.001). Total blood loss in the image-free robotic group was significantly higher than conventional group (2.24±0.49 g/dl vs. 1.64±0.68 g/dl, p = 0.001).

Conclusion: Image-free robotic-assisted TKA constituted a surgical procedure which could provide better accuracy in prosthetic alignment in both mechanical axis and rotational axis compared with conventional TKA. However, the image-free robotic assisted TKA involved higher blood loss and longer operative time.

Published: February 2022

Background: Posterior spinal surgery is a common procedure in orthopedic practices that causes severe pain after surgery. Proper postoperative pain controls not only benefit early mobilization and initiation of physiotherapy but they also play important roles in reducing morbidity and mortality.

Objective: This prospective, double-blinded, randomized controlled study investigated the efficacy of anesthetic cocktail wound instillation for postoperative analgesia following posterior spinal surgery.

Methods: After posterior spinal surgery, 54 patients were randomized to instill 20 mL of normal saline (Group N) or anesthetic cocktail consisting bupivacaine, ketorolac and morphine (Group A) in the wound after securing hemostasis and leaving a contact time of 60 seconds. After a dwell time of 60 seconds, the wound layers were closed without mopping or suctioning. All patients in both groups received patient-controlled analgesia using morphine for 24 hours post surgery, followed by standard analgesia. The analgesia consumption (morphine), visual analog scale (VAS) at specific hours after the operation, and time for first demand of analgesia were recorded. Morphine-related side effects were also monitored.

Results: The patients in group A consumed significantly less morphine at 4, 8, 12 and 16 hours after the surgery (p=0.048, 0.007, 0.005 and 0.026, respectively). In addition, they had lower VAS over the first 24 hours (p<0.05) and longer median duration of first demand of analgesia (p=0.013). Morphinerelated side effects were also lower in group A (p=0.024). Conclusion: The simple technique of wound instillation with anesthetic cocktail significantly reduced postoperative requirements of morphine and improved pain control with lower rates of nausea and vomiting over the first postoperative day after posterior spinal surgery.

A range of scientific works show that sociological intervention is rooted in two main theoretical branches – psychosociology and microsociology. Although the concepts and foundations of these two major scientific branches are, of course, different, their relationships with the subject mix proximity and self-analysis, resulting in an enlightening common factor. Our intention with this article is not only to identify the primary theories and concepts developed over the past two centuries, but also, and above all, to be able to look beyond their unique features to better visualize the probable points of convergence so as to provide a coherent framework that unifies the different psychosociological forms of intervention.
Postcapitalist Decision Making
Authors: Albert Michael
Published: February 2022

mέta Working Papers’ series “Towards (a Better) Postcapitalism: A Handy How-To Guide” publishes solicited policy papers on aspects of how would a non-dystopian postcapitalism look like. The series focuses on three ‘pillars’: Production | Allocation | Decision Making i.e., how could/would postcapitalist production be like (and who would own the means of production), what shape would the allocation of goods take (and which alternatives to the market economy may be explored), and what would be the main tenets of postcapitalist decision making and democracy. In this paper, Michael Albert addresses the third pillar: postcapitalist decision making.

Pleidooi voor de (door)ontwikkeling van de taakstraf en thuisdetentie ter vervanging van de korte gevangenisstraf

Naar aanleiding van een op 29 oktober 2021 verschenen RSJ-rapport (titel: Korte detenties nader bekeken) en een op 25 november 2021 door de RSJ georganiseerd online-congres inzake kortdurende detentie (titel: Kort, maar krachtig. Over de toekomst van korte detenties) schrijft Claessen een vervolg op zijn eerder in dit tijdschrift verschenen pleidooi voor de terugdringing van de korte gevangenisstraf (NTS 2021/40). In deze bijdrage gaat de auteur nader in op de volgende twee alternatieven voor kortdurende detentie: de taakstraf en thuisdetentie. Daarbij staan per alternatief de volgende drie vragen centraal: 1. Wat is op basis van de huidige wet- en regelgeving mogelijk en zit daar nog ruimte?; 2. Wat kan door middel van (relatief kleine) wijzigingen van de bestaande wet- en regelgeving nog meer mogelijk worden gemaakt?; en 3. Wat is de stip op de horizon bezien vanuit een maximalistisch herstelrecht?

Feiten van algemene bekendheid betreffende geweldhandelingen tegen het hoofd

In deze bijdrage wordt onderzocht hoe gerechtelijke instanties met gebruikmaking van algemene ervaringsregels tot een bewezenverklaring komen van een geweldsdelict waarbij het geweld op het hoofd is/zou zijn gericht en beantwoordt zij de vraag of er wetenschappelijk bewijs bestaat voor de feiten van algemene bekendheid die in strafzaken worden aangenomen bij zaken betreffende geweld op het hoofd gericht. De auteur schrijft dat algemene ervaringsregels een enorme invloed lijken te hebben op de rechtspraak over geweld gericht op het hoofd, er vaak bewijsnood mee wordt opgelost, voor een deel van de ervaringsregels, zoals de algemene kwetsbaarheid van het hoofd en de gevoeligheid van het gelaat, geen enkele wetenschappelijke onderbouwing bestaat en de rechtspraak geholpen zou zijn met feitelijke onderbouwing van gevolgen van geweld op het hoofd in de vorm van forensisch medisch bewijs.

Published: February 2022

Introduction: Blunt trauma chest contributes to significant number of trauma admissions globally and is a cause of major morbidity and mortality. Many scoring systems and risk factors have been defined in past for prognosticating blunt trauma chest but, none is considered to be gold standard.
 Aim: This study was conducted to reassess the significance of available scoring systems and others indicators of severity in prognosticating blunt trauma chest patients.
 Materials and Methods: In this prospective observational study from November 2016 till March 2018, 50 patients with age more than 12 years with blunt chest trauma who required hospitalization were included. Nine risk factors were assessed namely- age of the patient, duration of presentation after trauma, number of ribs fractured, bilateral thoracic injury, evidence of lung contusion, associated extra thoracic injury, need for mechanical ventilation, Revised trauma Score (RTS) and Modified Early Warning Sign Score (MEWS). Severity of blunt thoracic trauma was assessed on following outcomes-SIRS, ARDS and Death. The inferences were drawn with the use of statistical software package SPSS v22.0.
 Results: The age of 50 patients included in our study with a range of 15 to 76 years, the median age was 35.5 years. Statistically significant association was observed between occurrence of SIRS and multiple ribs fractured (p-value- 0.049), associated extra-thoracic injury (p-value-0.016) and higher MEWS score (p-value-0.025). ARDS occurrence was statistically significantly associated with all the risk factors except age.Death occurred more in patients with delayed duration of presentation to hospital (p-value <0.001), multiple ribs fractured (p-value-0.001), bilateral thoracic injury(p-value<0.001), associated extra-thoracic injury (p-value-0.004), patients who required ventilatory support (p-value<0.001), low RTS (p-value-0.006) and high MEWS (p-value-0.005) on admission. This association was found statistically significant.
 Conclusion: High MEWS, associated extra-thoracic injuries and multiple rib fractured can very well predict poor outcome in terms of SIRS, ARDS and death. Aggressive treatment protocols should be established for better outcome in these patients with blunt trauma chest.
Architektura wobec kryzysu społecznego projektu dzieciństwa – muzeum dziecięce jako pole innowacji
Authors: Balcer-Zgraja Małgorzata
Published: February 2022

Artykuł w syntetycznej formie przedstawia kierunki rozwoju współczesnej
architektury dla dzieci, gdy tradycyjna dychotomia dziecko/dorosły zanika, ustępując miejsca rozwiązaniom zintegrowanym. Celem opracowania jest zbadanie wybranych współczesnych przykładów muzeów dziecięcych w kontekście kryzysu społecznego „projektu dzieciństwa”, którego integralną częścią w XX wieku stała się architektura. Zestaw metod badawczych: przegląd i analiza dostępnej literatury przedmiotu, źródeł internetowych, studium przypadku, badania empiryczne
in situ. Krytyczna analiza porównawcza zebranych danych posłużyła wyprowadzeniu wniosków o tym, że muzeum dziecięce jest obecnie polem innowacji w zakresie definiowania miejsca dziecka w architekturze.

REPATRIATION AS THE WAY OF ACQUIRING POLISH CITIZENSHIP – THE ANALYSIS OF LEGAL REGULATIONS INCLUDING KEY LEGAL ACTS
Authors: Doroszczak Jan
Published: February 2022

Repatriation after the collapse of the USSR quickly became an important element of public debate. The necessity to reward Polish citizens for the fate brought about by the political trials and the Stalinist regime was emphasized. The aim of the presented article is to analyze the concept of repatriation and to discuss the phenomenon of this process as well as to analyze the currently applicable regulations enabling the acquisition of Polish citizenship through repatriation. Indirectly, the comparative analysis will also refer to other legal acts related to the issue of Polish citizenship. The legislator, despite his sincere intentions (expressed in the preamble to the Repatriation Act), the statutory provisions remain full of unclear structures and, above all, are devoid of specific information that allows interested persons to obtain the necessary data and directions of action. Additionally, some of the provisions contradict or do not implement the basic principles of administrative law.

SUBJECT OF POSSESSION IN AGRICULTURAL RELATIONS
Authors: Czerwińska-Koral Katarzyna
Published: February 2022

Today, possession is the basic category of agricultural law. The purpose of this article is to attempt to characterize the object (reference point) of agricultural ownership, and indirectly to show the specific features of the institution of ownership in agricultural relations. The subject of agricultural ownership seems special, in agricultural and legal regulation sit is defined in a different way from the traditional, civilist approach. Civilian constructions, although they may be helpful in determining the subject of agricultural ownership, are not always sufficient, as they are not very flexible. Owing to its dynamics, possession is expressed in the development of a traditional object of possession.
Měkkýši přírodní rezervace Oheb v Železných horách (východní Čechy) [Molluscs of the Oheb Nature Reserve in the Železné hory Mts. (Eastern Bohemia)]
Authors: Kosová Tereza
Published: February 2022

The castle ruin of the Oheb is located above the Seč reservoir in the hilly part of Eastern Bohemia (Czech Republic). The mollusc inventory of this favourable site has already started in the first half of the 20th century (Culek 1944) and has been continuing over the last 50 years (Brabenec 1971, Juřičková 1999). Therefore, the Oheb represents one of the best explored sites in the Czech Republic. The last survey was conducted during the summer 2018 by hand picking and litter sampling at several selected stations. In total, 57 terrestrial mollusc species were recorded during the period 1944–2018. This unusually high species richness is unique, considering relatively poor mollusc fauna of the surrounding area, and represents a classical example of the so-called castle phenomenon. Alinda biplicata, Aegopinella pura, Arianta arbustorum, Helicigona lapicida, Monachoides incarnatus, and Ruthenica filograna were the most frequently recorded species. Arion vulgaris, Oxychilus cellarius, Nesovitrea hammonis, and Malacolimax tenellus have been recorded for the first in 2018 and likely represent modern colonization of the site.
