Authors: SUKLA PRADEEP , KUMAR SANJEEV , YADAV SACHIN SINGH , GUPTA SHUBHANSHU
Published: May 2022

Objectives: (1) The aim of the study was to compare the effectiveness of problem-based learning (PBL) in classroom and problem-based mobile learning using a mobile application (PBML) and (2) to study the perception of students to problem-based m-learning (PBML) and problem-based learning (PBL) in classroom.
Methods: After getting clearance from Institutional Ethics Committee, an interventional study was conducted for a period of 2 months among 150 Phase II MBBS students of Government Medical College, Datia (MP). Students who gave consent for the study were divided into two groups, namely, R-1 and R-2, and analyzed for the effectiveness of problem-based mobile-learning (PBML) as a teaching learning method in comparison with problem-based learning in classroom (PBL). Perception of students toward use of PBML and PBL as teaching learning method was collected using validated questionnaire.
Results: It was observed from the study that in all the sessions, post-test mean scores were significantly higher than pre-test scores in both PBL and PBML. Before the intervention, there was no significant difference in the pre-test mean scores in topics done by PBL and PBML. After intervention, the only the post-test mean scores significantly improved. When the total post-test scores of PBL and PBML compared, it was found that PBML mean score is significantly higher than PBL mean score. In the student’s perception analysis, it was found that both methods are effective in concept building, stimulating, helpful in passing examinations, and development of problem-learning skills.
Conclusion: From the study finding, we can conclude that both PBL and PBML are effective modes of teaching applied community medicine for Phase II MBBS students. PBML is more effective than PBL in teaching applied community medicine in Phase II MBBS students. Perception analysis shows that interaction with the students and doubt clearance is more effectuated with PBL than PBML.
A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF LATERALIZED TRANSVERSE INCISION APPENDECTOMY VERSUS LAPAROSCOPIC APPENDECTOMY
Authors: MAHNA ABHISHEK
Published: May 2022

Objectives: The objective of this study were to compare the effectiveness of lateral transverse cosmetic incision (LTCI) versus laparoscopic appendectomy in terms of operative and post-operative parameters.
Methods: One hundred and forty patients who were admitted after the diagnosis of appendicitis were divided into two groups of 70 each. Patients in Group A were treated by lateralized transverse incision appendectomy, while Group B patients underwent laparoscopic appendectomy.
Results: In the present study, male: female ratio was found to be 2:1 with majority of the patients belonging to age group of 21–50 years (75.72%). Post-operative hospital stay in Group A patients was 2±0.68 days in comparison to 2±0.75 days in laparoscopy group which was comparable. Duration of surgery in minutes in Group A was 46±18.65 while in Group B, it was 91±17.75 with a significant P ≤ 0.0001. The cost of surgery was Rs.3200±450 in LTCI, while it was Rs.4200±600 in laparoscopic group with P < 0.0001 which was found to be highly significant.
Conclusion: Lateral transverse incision appendectomy was found to be as effective as laparoscopic appendectomy. The method is a preferred procedure, particularly in those set ups where the advanced equipments and specially trained doctors and technicians are not available. In the present study, lateral transverse technique was found to be safe, cosmetically much better, and without mortality and negligible morbidity. Furthermore, less hospital stay, less need for analgesics, less need for skilled personnel, early return to the routine, less surgery duration, and less expensive as compared to laparoscopic surgery make the conventional method equally preferable.
A Chinese Diasporic Translator: Chi-Chen Wang and his Translation of Chinese Literature
Authors: Saisai Huang
Published: May 2022

The diasporic translator Chi-Chen Wang did much to disseminate modern Chinese literature in the West. This article draws attention to Chinese diasporic translators in the West in the 1940s through the neglected figure of Chi-Chen Wang (1899-2001). This paper of Chi-Chen Wang is an integrated study of two perspectives, an overview of present studies on Wang’s translation and a detailed analysis on Wang’s translation principles by examining his translation revisions. The research finds out that Wang’s translations in the 1940s years centered on socially conscious types of writing, which bear a close relationship to his sympathy and expectation for China. Wang was guided by the principles of both capturing the original flavor and enhancing the readability of the target text.

Authors: Maithani Aditya , Mall Vaibhav , roy Sarthak Guha
Published: May 2022

Abstract: Conventional brake pad friction materials are made of organic, metallic and ceramic materials but they suffer from various shortcomings like dampening effects, formation of undesirable phases, sensitivity to high temperature and brittleness. However, in the recent years due to better tribological properties of magnesium and its composites they have gained considerable importance to be used as brake pad friction material. In present article the structural and thermal analysis of six magnesium composites (viz., AZ91 + 0.5 wt.% GNP, AZ91 + 30 wt.% TiC, Mg + 1 Al + 0.6 wt.% CNT, AZ91D + 1.5 wt.% B4C, Mg + 10 % TiC + 5 wt.% MoS2, Mg+ 5 wt.% Graphite) in ANSYS software has been carried out. During the structural and thermal simulation it was observed that AZ91+0.5wt%GNP and Mg+1Al+0.60CNT gave the best results for total deformation, equivalent stress and strain and were found to be the most suitable composites for making brake pad friction material. This behaviour of the GNP and CNT composites can be attributed to their respective honey-comb and cylindrical structure lattice and high thermal properties.

Published: May 2022

This study aims to determine the level of income inequality, the relationship between Economic Growth and Income Inequality, and the Kuznets Hypothesis. The method used is the Williamson Index, Theil Entropy Index, Pearson Correlation, and the Kuznets Hypothesis. The results obtained from the Williamson Index and Theil Entropy Indeks between districts/cities in the Province of NusaiSoutheastern West 2001-2020 show a trim income inequality level with values ​​of 0.22 and 0.02. The results obtained from the Pearson Correlation between Regencies/Citiesiin West Nusa Tenggara Province in 2001-2020 showed a relationship. Still, it was less intense because it was at 0.257 and 0.303. The results obtained from the visual analysis illustrate the relationship between Economic Growth and Income Inequality, forming an inverted U, which means that in the early period of economic growth, there was an increase in income inequality, as evidenced by the continued growth of economic growth from 2001 to 2010 but was followed by the rise in income inequality—rising income inequality. Then, in the next period, namely in 2011 to 2020, economic growth continued to grow but was followed by a decrease in income inequality, meaning that the Kuznets Hypothesis turned out to be valid in the Province of West Nusa Tenggara in 2001-2020.

Authors: Fadhillah Arief
Published: May 2022

This paper purposes to examine the principles and implementation of contemporary advertising in an Islamic perspective. The research employs the method of literature study, by examining the perspective of Islamic advertising from various research literatures, the opinions of scholars and the Qur'an and Hadith. Based on literature review, the development of advertising is still trapped in the practice of materialistic advertising that overrides the ethics of Islamic communication. For this reason, this study formulates six advertising principles referring to the Qur'an and Hadith as well as the opinions of scholars, namely the principle of monotheism, the principle of honesty, the principle of justice, the principle of trust, the principle of education and the principle of Istiqomah/consistent. This study can be developed by referring to technological developments and the need for communication and religious research in the future.
When CEO and board chair are in conflict: A resource dependence perspective
Authors: Ahmed Rawia , Eramudugoda Randika , Wagstaff M. Fernanda
Published: May 2022

The board of directors serves two functions in the organization: monitoring and resource provision. Agency theory mainly addresses the former, while resource dependence theory focuses on the latter. However, these theories consistently assume that board members are not only able but also consistently willing to fulfill their roles. From a resource dependence perspective, this means that board members are generally inclined to share their resources (information, social and political connections, and functional experience) with the CEO. We challenge this assumption by postulating that in the context of dyadic conflict between the CEO and board chair, these resources will not be accessible to the CEO, hence the resource provision function of the board will be interrupted. We, therefore, unpack the black box of the board dynamics by merging resource dependence theory with conflict literature to a) present an in-depth description of the CEO-board chair conflict and b) its implications for the CEO (heightened turnover intentions), the board (board cohesion and board’s monitoring role), and the organization. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

Today, the use of information technologies has made life easier and helps people to take precautions against problems that may arise in the future. 3D Geographic Information Systems is also used for various purposes to facilitate human life today. One of these goals is to improve the foresight ability in plans. In the studies carried out until today, the power of 3D to produce solutions to various problems in the world is revealed. In this study, the effects of urban shadowing because of wrong urbanization have been investigated by using the power of 3D Geographic Information Systems. The data was provided via Open Street Map, which is an open-source map provider. The obtained data were analyzed and a park which is the surrounding area is not yet developed was determined. In the aim of the study, new buildings were added around the park by evaluating the direction of urban growth and possibilities, and the effect of the shadow it created on the sunbathing time of the park was investigated. It is obvious that social areas such as park areas are important for people to reach the sun they need. As a result, it is necessary to investigate the shadow effects of newly constructed buildings in order to increase the sunshine duration in the park areas.

Travelling waves for generalized Fisher-Kolmogorov equation with discontinuous density dependent diffusion
Authors: ZAHRADNÍKOVÁ Michaela , Drabek Pavel
Published: May 2022

We are concerned with the existence and qualitative properties of
travelling wave solutions for a quasilinear reaction-diffusion equation
on the real line. We consider a non-Lipschitz reaction term of
Fisher–KPP type and a discontinuous diffusion coefficient that allows
for degenerations and singularities at equilibrium points. We
investigate the joint influence of the reaction and diffusion terms on
the existence and nonexistence of travelling waves and, assuming these
terms are of power-type near equilibria, we provide classification of
solutions based on their asymptotic properties. Our approach provides a
broad theoretical background for the mathematical treatment of rather
general models not only in population dynamics but also in other applied
sciences and engineering.

Coping with antagonistic predation risks: Predator-dependent unique responses are dominant in Ceriodaphnia cornuta
Authors: Gu Lei , Qin Shanshan , Sun Yunfei , Huang Jing , Akbar Siddiq , Zhang Lu , Yang Zhou
Published: May 2022

Inducible defenses of prey are evolved under diverse and variable
predation risks. However, during the co-evolution of prey and multiple
predators, the responses of prey to antagonistic predation risks, which
may put the prey into a dilemma of responding to predators, remain
unclear. Based on antagonistic predation pressure from an invertebrate
(Chaoborus larvae) and a vertebrate (Rhodeus ocellatus) predator, we
studied the responses of multiple traits and transcriptomes of the
freshwater crustacean Ceriodaphnia cornuta under multiple predation
risks. Chaoborus predation risk altered the expression of genes encoding
cuticle proteins and modulated the biosynthesis of steroid hormones,
cutin, suberine, and wax, leading to the development of horns and
increase in size at the late developmental stage. Meanwhile, fish
predation risk primarily triggered genes encoding ribosomes and those
involved in unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis and cysteine and
methionine metabolism, resulting in smaller individual size and earlier
reproduction. Inducible responses of both transcriptome and individual
traits revealed that predator-dependent unique responses were dominant
and the dilemma of antagonistic responses was relatively limited.
However, the unique individual traits in response to invertebrate
predation could be significantly impaired by vertebrate predation risk,
even though the unique responses to different predators were extremely
weakly correlated and could be elicited simultaneously. These results
indicate that diverse predator-dependent unique responses are favored by
Ceriodaphnia during its co-evolution with multiple predators.
Nonetheless, Ceriodaphnia is not a generalist that can fully adopt all
predator-dependent unique responses simultaneously under multiple
predation risks.
The adaptive value of density-dependent habitat specialization and social network centrality
Authors: Webber Quinn , Laforge Michel , Bonar Maegwin , Wal Eric Vander
Published: May 2022

Density dependence is a fundamental ecological process. Patterns of
animal habitat selection and social behaviour are often
density-dependent and density-dependent traits should affect
reproduction and survival, and subsequently affect fitness and
population dynamics. The Ideal Free Distribution and Optimal Foraging
Theory present distinct predictions about how the effect of habitat
selection on fitness differs across a population density gradient. Using
a social ungulate (Rangifer tarandus) as a model system, we test
competing hypotheses about how (co)variance in habitat specialization,
social behaviour, and fitness vary across a population density gradient.
Within a behavioural reaction norm framework, we estimated
repeatability, phenotypic plasticity, and phenotypic covariance among
social behaviours and habitat selection to demonstrate the adaptive
value of these phenotypes across a population density gradient. In
support of Optimal Foraging Theory, but not the Ideal Free Distribution,
we found that at high density habitat specialists had higher fitness
than generalists, but were also less social than habitat generalists,
suggesting the possibility that specialists were inhibited from being
social. Our findings illustrate that social strength and habitat
specialization varied consistently among individuals across a density
gradient, but that habitat specialists maximized fitness at high
density. Taken together, our study provides preliminary support for
Optimal Foraging Theory as the driving mechanism for density-dependent
habitat specialization.

Prosthetic valve endocarditis with mechanical complications causing
pulmonary edema is fatal, therefore it needs to be diagnosed early and
should be treated surgically in emergency setting. Transesophageal
echocardiogram is crucial for recognizing the mechanical complications,
which can be encountered on daily practice, but the coexistence of
complications occurring on different mechanism is rather uncommon.
Herein, we report a 21-year-old gentleman presenting with acute heart
failure, whose imaging tests showed a combination of dehiscence of
mechanical aortic valve prosthesis, aortic dissection, pseudoaneurysm
and hematoma causing right ventricular collapse.

Authors: Lu Wenchao , Guo Qixiang , Wang Tiansheng , Gou Zhouyue , Zhang Hao Chi , Zheng Kai , Wang Yinghong , Liu Li-Hong , Zhao Zhixia
Published: May 2022

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), including anti-PD-1/L1
therapy and anti-CTLA-4 therapy, are associated with a unique spectrum
of immune-related adverse events (irAEs). The association and clinical
features of ICIs-related biliary disorders are not well characterized.
Methods: Data were extracted from the US Food and Drug Administration
Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. Bile duct and
gallbladder diseases were defined by the Medical Dictionary for
Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). We performed disproportionality analysis
using reporting odds ratios (ROR) and information component (IC). The
result was defined as a signal if the lower limit of the 95% confidence
interval for ROR is over 1 and the number of cases ≥5, or the lower
limit of 95% confidence interval for the IC (IC025)>0.
Results: 906 reports of ICI-related bile duct and gallbladder events
were identified. The mean age was 64.8±12.1 years and the AEs occurred
more in men (60.1% vs 39.9%). ICIs were associated with increased
reporting of bile duct diseases (ROR 3.35, 95%CI 3.07-3.66; IC0251.41),
especially cholangitis (ROR 5.52, 95% CI 4.94-6.17; IC0251.93); while
we didn’t identify signal of gallbladder disease (ROR 0.96, 95%CI
0.86-1.08; IC025 -0.22). PD-1/L1 inhibitors and combination regimen were
associated with a spectrum of distinct classes of bile duct disease
while anti-CTLA-4 therapy (ipilimumab) had no association with any bile
duct and gallbladder diseases. Conclusions: PD-1/L1 inhibitors showed
increased reporting of cholangiopathy, especially for cholangitis.
Physicians should be aware of this potential adverse event.

Artikkelissa tarkastellaan sosiaalialan korkeakoulutettujen ammattilaisten arvioita käyttämistään asiakastietojärjestelmistä. Artikkelissa arvioidaan Sote-tieto hyötykäyttöön strategian tavoitteiden toteutumista sosiaalialan ammattilaisten näkökulmasta ja tuotetaan tuotemerkkikohtaista tietoa käyttäjäkokemuksista kehittämisen tueksi. Artikkelin tutkimuskysymyksenä oli: Minkälaisia arvioita sosiaalialan korkeakoulutetut ammattilaiset antavat käyttämilleen asiakastietojärjestelmille vuonna 2020 käyttäjäkokemuksiinsa perustuen? Tutkimusaineistona hyödynnettiin STePS 3.0 -hankkeessa syys-lokakuussa 2020 ammattiliittojen kanssa yhteistyössä kerättyä tutkimusaineistoa (n=990), josta tähän artikkeliin valittiin ne vastaajat, joilla oli käytössä sähköinen asiakastietojärjestelmä (n=974). Aineistoa analysoitiin kuvailevin menetelmin hyödyntämällä suoria jakaumia ja ristiintaulukointia. Kouluarvosanoista esitettiin keskiarvot, keskihajonnat, keskiarvojen 95% luottamusvälit sekä heikkojen ja kiitettävien arvosanojen osuudet.
Tulokset osoittavat, että sosiaalihuollossa käytössä olevien tuotemerkkien välillä on vaihtelua toimivuudessa, käytettävyydessä, työn ja yhteistyön tuessa sekä koetuissa hyödyissä. Tuotemerkkien arvosanojen keskiarvot vaihtelivat kohtalaisesta (6) hyvään (8). Parhaimmat arviot saivat Nappula ja Domacare, joita käytetään yleensä rajatummissa sosiaalihuollon toimintaympäristöissä. Laajasti sosiaalihuollossa käytössä olevista asiakastietojärjestelmistä parhaimman arvion sai Pro Consona (tyydyttävä). Asiakastietojärjestelmien suunnittelu ja mukauttaminen pienemmän ja rajatumman käyttäjäryhmän tarpeisiin on luonnollisesti yksinkertaisempaa ja järjestelmän käytön oppiminen nopeampaa verrattuna suurten käyttäjäryhmien ja monipuolisten toiminnallisuuksien asiakastietojärjestelmiin. Kaikkien asiakastietojärjestelmien kehittämiskohteiksi tunnistettiin yhteistyön ja tiedonvaihdon tukeminen, asiakkaan palvelukokonaisuuden hahmottaminen sekä asiakkaan sähköisen asioinnin kehittäminen. Paikannetut kehittämiskohteet ovat merkittäviä tulevia hyvinvointialueita ajatellen. Asiakastietojärjestelmillä olisi potentiaalia tukea sote-uudistukselle asetettuja tavoitteita, mikäli niitä kehitetään tulevaisuudessa vastaamaan paremmin ammattilaisten tarpeisiin.

Published: May 2022

The use of interactive multimedia as learning media is necessary to assist the learning process. The use of Autoplay in developing learning media enables the teachers to produce very good media in facilitating students' needs in learning excretory system material. The addition of an Engklek  game is also very helpful in developing cognitive levels and activating students' motor skills. The method used in the use of Autoplay to develop learning media refers to the model developed by Lee and Owens 2004, namely the Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation (ADDIE) model. This development research stage is only carried out until the Analysis, Design, Development stage, because this research is only limited to developing learning media.

PENGATURAN PRINSIP KEHATI-HATIAN PADA LEMBAGA KEUANGAN BUKAN BANK
Authors: Wibawanti Sabatika Sinung
Published: May 2022

Sebagai sebuah industri keuangan, lembaga keuangan bukan bank juga dituntut untuk melakukan usahanya dengan memperhatikan prinsip kehati-hatian. Tetapi, tidak ada pengaturan yang secara tegas menyatakan bahwa lembaga keuangan bukan bank menganut prinsip kehati-hatian. Tidak adanya undang-undang yang secara khusus mengatur tentang lembaga keuangan bukan bank seperti layaknya UU Perbankan menjadi salah satu penyebab ketidaktegasan prinsip kehati-hatian pada lembaga keuangan bukan bank.

Unifikasi pengaturan sistem keuangan menjadi salah satu pilihan dalam mengatasi persoalan ketidaktegasan pengaturan prinsip kehati-hatian dalam lembaga keuangan bukan bank. Dalam konteks sistem hukum Indonesia, Lembaga Keuangan Bukan Bank membutuhkan pengaturannya sendiri yang tegas mengatur mengenai prinsip kehati-hatian dan terlepas dari pengaturan perbankan, tetapi masih dalam satu konstruksi harmonisasi hukum.
PENGGUNAAN NAMA DAERAH SEBAGAI TANDA PEMBEDA DALAM SUATU PRODUK
Authors: Ferdinandus Leonard Umbu Saingu
Published: May 2022

Suatu tanda yang menjadi milik umum  tidak dapat didaftarkan/digunakan sebagai merek suatu produk. Seperti yang digunakan oleh sebuah perusahaan yang menggunakan nama daerah sebagai merek produk kopi yang diberi nama “Kopi Sumba”. Dalam Pasal 20 Undang-Undang Nomor 20 Tahun 2016 tentang Merek dan Indikasi Geografis memuat unsur-unsur yang tidak dapat didaftarkan sebagai merek. Tanda milik umum tidak dapat didaftarkan sebagai merek oleh karena tanda milik umum merupakan suatu tanda yang merepresentasikan khalayak banyak dan secara otomatis tanda tersebut tidak dapat dikuasai secara individual. Tetapi tanda milik umum dapat diterima pendaftarannya melalui rezim indikasi geografis. Menurut penulis seharusnya tanda-tanda yang sudah diketahui menjadi milik umum untuk tidak dijadikan sebagai merek suatu produk oleh karena bertentangan dengan prinsip dalam hukum merek dan indikasi geografis.

A sign that has become a public property cannot be registered as a trademark. This article discusses a case in which the name of “Kopi Sumba” is used as a coffee brand product deriving the name of a region ‘Sumba’ by a company. Accordance with Article 20 of Law Number 20 of 2016 concerning Trademarks and Geographical Indications, certain categories cannot be registered as trademarks. One of them is signs of public property, which cannot be registered as trademarks because the sign of public property is a sign representing the public, so it cannot be owned by an individual. In this article, the author argues that public signs should not be used as a trademark of a product because it is against the principles in trademark law and geographical indications.

Hak atas persamaan di hadapan hukum serta hak atas upaya hukum yang efektif merupakan hak konstitusional yang melandasi undang-undang. Kedua hak tersebut, menghendaki setiap orang yang ingin memperjuangkan keadilan dan kebenaran harus difasilitas dan tidak boleh dibatasi oleh undang-undang. Pasal 158 ayat (1) dan ayat (2) UU No. 10 Tahun 2016 memuat kaidah persentase selisih suara sebagai syarat untuk dapat mengajukan permohonan perselisihan hasil Pilgub, Pilbup dan Pilkot di Mahkamah Konstitusi Republik Indonesia yang pada dasarnya membatasi pemohon untuk memperjuangkan keadilan dan kebenaran yang ketika proses pemilukada dan penetapan hasil pemilukada tercederai akibat tindakan kejahatan secara terstruktur, sistematis dan masif. Menurut Penulis seharusnya kaidah tersebut tunduk pada dikte hak atas persamaan di hadapan hukum dan hak atas upaya hukum yang efektif.

The right to equality before the law and the right to effective remedies are constitutional rights on which the law is based. Both of these rights require that everyone who wants to fight for justice and truth must be facilitated and must not be limited by law. Article 158 paragraph (1) and paragraph (2) of Law No. 10 of 2016 contain the principle of percentage difference in votes as a condition to be eligible to submit disputes Constitional Court  of the Republic of Indonesiaon the results of the election of governor, regent, and major (local election). The principle on the provisions basically hamper the applicants whose rights are violated by structured, systematic and massive acts during the process of local election to fight for justice and truth concerning on the decision of the election result. According to the author, the rule should be subject to the dictation of the right to equality before the law and the right to effective legal remedies.
PENETAPAN TERSANGKA SEBAGAI OBJEK PRAPERADILAN DALAM PUTUSAN MK NO. 21/PUU/XII/2014 SEBAGAI PEMENUHAN HAM DAN TERCAPAINYA SISTEM PERADILAN PIDANA TERPADU
Authors: Teslatu Leo Christy Menoha
Published: May 2022

Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi No. 21/PUU-XII/2014 menambahkan objek praperadilan dalam ketentuan Pasal 77 KUHAP, sehingga objek praperadilan diperluas, yaitu termasuk sah atau tidaknya penetapan tersangka, sah atau tidaknya penggeledahan dan sah atau tidaknya penyitaan. Akan tetapi yang menjadi persoalan adalah dengan adanya perluasan objek praperadilan tersebut apakah mencerminkan keadilan, kepastian serta kemanfaatan atau malah sebaliknya mencerminkan ketidakadilan, ketidakpastian serta tidak bermanfaat. Oleh karena itu dalam penelitian ini, penulis akan menganalisis mengapa Mahkamah Konstitusi memutuskan penetapan tersangka sebagai objek praperadilan. Alasan diputuskannya penetapan tersangka sebagai salah satu objek untuk mengajukan praperadilan oleh Mahkamah Konstitusi adalah (1) untuk melindungi setiap warga negara terhadap penyalahgunaan kekuasaan oleh lembaga negara yang dapat merugikan hak setiap individu warga negara, (2) bentuk pengawasan dan mekanisme kontrol terhadap proses penegakan hukum yang terkait erat dengan jaminan perlindungan hak asasi manusia, (3) penyeimbang dalam hal adanya benturan antara hak-hak individu dengan kekuasaan negara. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian hukum normatif.

Decision of the Constitutional Court No. 21/PUU-XII/2014 has expanded the pretrial object regulated in the provisions of Article 77 of the Criminal Procedure Code. The pretrial object has expanded to the validity of the suspects, the search, and the confiscation. However, the problem arises with the expansion of the pretrial object whether it reflects justice, certainty and usefulness or even, on the contrary, reflects injustice, uncertainty and not useful. Therefore, the author will analyze the legal reasoning of the Constitutional Court which ruled the determination of the suspect as a pretrial object. It is found that the reasons are: (1) to protect every citizen from abuse of power by state institutions that can harm the rights of each individual citizen, (2) to supervise and control mechanisms for the process of law enforcement which is closely related to guaranteeing the protection of human rights, (3) to balance between individual rights and state power. This research is a normative legal research.

A new water mite species of the genus Teutonia Koenike, 1889 from Corsica, France, based on morphological data and DNA barcodes (Acari, Hydrachnidia, Teutoniidae)
Authors: Pešić Vladimir , Smit Harry
Published: May 2022

We describe a new species, Teutonia corsicana sp. nov. from Corsica, France using morphological data and DNA barcodes. Morphologically the new species can be separated on the basis of the female pregenital sclerite partially covered by genital flaps, and in both sexes a broad-based, triangular ventral projection of P-2 and slender P-3 (L/H ratio 1.6-1.7). The average K2P-distance between DNA-barcode sequences of T. corsicana sp. nov. and widely distributed T. cometes (Koch, 1837) was estimated at 18.7±1.9 %. An updated key for the European species of Teutonia is provided.
