The main problem in this research is criminal liability for the attempted criminal act of trafficking in persons and the judge's consideration in sentencing the perpetrators who attempted the criminal act of trafficking in persons in the decision Number 54/Pid.Sus/2021/PN.Lsm. This type of research is included in the normative juridical law research group. Meanwhile, judging from its nature, this research is a complete, detailed, and clear description of a reality. Criminal liability for attempted criminal acts of trafficking in persons in Law Number 21 of 2017 concerning the Eradication of the Crime of Trafficking in Persons is different from liability for attempted criminal acts regulated in the Criminal Code. The difference is that in Article 53 paragraph (2) and paragraph (3) of the Criminal Code the sentence imposed is reduced by one third, while according to Article 10 of Law Number 21 of 2017 concerning the Eradication of the Crime of Trafficking in Persons, the criminal sanctions imposed are not reduced by one third, but are equated with the deed is done. The judge's consideration in imposing a criminal sentence on the attempted criminal act of trafficking in persons in the decision Number 54/Pid.Sus/2021/PN.Lsm is based on evidence, testimony of witnesses, testimony of the defendant and based on the facts revealed in the trial and also consider the aggravating reasons and mitigating reasons from the defendant,  and with the judge's conviction, the verdict handed down in this case is a prison sentence of 3 (three) years and a fine of Rp.120,000,000, - so that the judge's consideration in The author considers that the sentence is appropriate because it is appropriate and fulfills these elements.  It is recommended that the criminal liability imposed can provide a deterrent effect on the perpetrators. Judges in making decisions are expected to consider everything presented in the trial, in addition to juridical considerations, judges are also expected to carry out non-juridical considerations.

EXPANSÃO DO COMPLEXO CAFEEIRO E MUDANÇAS SOCIAIS:
Authors: Bandeira Felipe de Lima
Published: March 2023

O objetivo desse livro é compreender as dinâmicas do complexo cafeeiro e suas relações com o processo de modernização e constituição do capitalismo no Brasil. Neste sentido, à medida que prosperava a economia cafeeira, ampliavam-se os fluxos de trocas, como resultado direto da expansão interna da renda, criando uma classe de comerciantes suficientemente capitalizados para aproveitar as oportunidades de investimentos. A novidade das modernas transações bancárias e de compra e venda de ações de companhia ferroviárias, por exemplo, colocavam-se como oportunidades de investimentos aos comerciantes, e mesmos aos fazendeiros mais audazes, entusiastas da expansão do crédito, diferenciando-se em certa medida dos setores mais tradicionais afeiçoados à propriedade da terra e mais duramente atingido pela proibição do tráfico negreiro em 1850 (Lei Eusébio de Queiroz). Em alguma medida, descolava-se a arcaica estrutura agrária para atividades que progressivamente foram ganhando feições modernas e aparelhadas em torno de uma nova recomposição política que ligava os interesses da expansão cafeeira aos grupos comerciais interno e externo, que se formavam a partir do capital agrário, mas organizados em núcleos urbanos. Assim, diante dessa profusão de interesses, acentuam-se as contradições em torno da expansão cafeeira e se produz um intenso processo de modernização e transformação social.

MANIFESTAÇÕES CLÍNICAS DA DEFICIÊNCIA DA ENZIMA GLICOSE-6-FOSFATO DESIDROGENASE (G6PD)
Authors: Dias Ana Cristina Mandu , Lima Izabele Gonçalves
Published: March 2023

O presente trabalho consiste em uma revisão de literatura, visando levantar dados que seja de grande relevância para o profissional Biomédico referentes às manifestações clínicas da deficiência da glicose-6-fosfato desidrogenase (G6PD) e assim auxiliar no desenvolvimento de novas estratégias terapêuticas. A G6PD é uma enzima que catalisa o primeiro passo da via das pentoses fosfato, produzindo NADPH, um importante cofator que protege as células contra o estresse oxidativo. É encontrada em todos os tecidos, porém sua deficiência ocorre essencialmente nas hemácias. No mundo, cerca de 400 milhões de pessoas são afetadas pela deficiência de G6PD, sendo os indivíduos do sexo masculino os que são mais acometidos, com maior taxa de morbidade, devido ao caráter recessivo da herança ligada ao sexo. A Pesquisa bibliográfica foi realizada em bancos de dados da Google Scholar, SciELO, NIH-PubMed, LILACS, a BVS, e Revistas Científicas, onde se buscou filtrar por pesquisas em formato de artigos, monografias e teses publicadas nos últimos 10 anos, com exceções de obras de autores renomados. Observou-se ao longo do estudo nas publicações analisadas que no Brasil a prevalência de G6PD está entre 1% a 10%, e as variantes mais presentes são a africana e a mediterrânea, sendo os maiores índices nas populações afrodescendentes. Muitos portadores da deficiência de G6PD são assintomáticos, sendo que dentre as manifestações clínicas mais frequentemente encontradas, temos o favismo, a icterícia e a palidez. Observou-se também, que há a necessidade de maiores estudos sobre a prevenção das manifestações clínicas da deficiência de G6PD, assim como da importância da detecção de portadores dessa enzimopatia, uma vez que a maioria dos portadores são assintomáticos e só descobre a deficiência desta enzima após o uso de algum fármaco, corante ou alimento.

Published: March 2023

Introdução: Anemia Falciforme está relacionada a uma alteração hereditária e genética que ocorre na hemoglobina S (HbS), que altera a morfologia das hemácias assumindo um formato de foice, reduzindo a velocidade da circulação sanguínea, ocasionando crises dolorosas, vaso oclusão e isquemia, além da hemólise precoce crônica. Objetivos: Descrever o perfil clínico, diagnósticos laboratoriais e tratamento da anemia falciforme. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma pesquisa de revisão integrativa da literatura. Como estratégia de busca, adotou-se a lógica baseada em descritores específicos e ao operador booleano (AND/OR) o qual desenvolvido nas bases de dados da SciELO e BVS. Resultados: Após as buscas, foram selecionados 11 artigos, demonstrando que no Brasil os exames realizados para identificar as alterações da HbS são análise da hemoglobina por cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência, eletroforese ou focalização isoelétrica. O perfil clínico- epidemiológico tem maior prevalência em indivíduos afrodescentes. Entretanto, embora a AF possua uma forte relação com a genética negroide a sua distribuição tem tendenciado a um atingir a população que possui 97% de miscigenação com a presença de síndromes vaso-oclusivas e anemia hemolítica crônica. Já o aconselhamento genético demonstrou ser uma medida de suma importância para vida dos indivíduos portadores da doença e do traço falciforme Conclusão: O estudo possibilitou verificar a importância do diagnóstico precoce por meio dos exames de triagem neonatal, os quais são importantes para nortear a conduta médica dos pacientes com a anemia falciforme e aumentar a sua sobrevida.
Responding to disasters: about the governance of post-nuclear accident situations
Authors: Jacques Lochard
Published: March 2023

Every society organizes itself to reduce the complexity of living together in order to ensure relative peace of mind for its members. Major technological accidents such as the Chernobyl or Fukushima nuclear accidents are violent disruptions that affect the quality of life of tens of thousands of people and generate increased distrust and anxiety among them as well as the questioning of the state system’s ability to restore some peace of mind. Past experience has shown that the measurement of radiation and the development of local projects with the support of professionals and experts prove to be effective levers for those affected to regain the ability to make decisions for their protection and to assess the protective actions implemented collectively. It also showed that restoring confidence and restoring the dignity of these people, seriously impaired by the accident, takes time.
Surviving COVID Isolation: A Phenomenological Study Exploring High School Teachers’ Lived Experiences in a Rural Setting
Authors: Collier Karen Marie
Published: March 2023

In March 2020, much of the United States shifted to virtual learning with little preparation. Many people tried to adjust to the new normal of quarantine and create a sense of regularity, especially in education. To understand teachers’ experiences during this time, a phenomenological study was used to explore the sudden transition to virtual learning for two teachers at a lower socioeconomic, rural high school in the southeastern United States. Through semi-structured interviews, the teachers recounted their personal experiences during the virtual learning transition in the Spring of 2020. They shared their experiences teaching virtually and concerns over students’ academic growth, as well as physical and mental health. The teachers provided a creative artifact representing Remote Learning as a secondary data source. As interviews and artifacts were analyzed to derive meaning from their experiences, the study discovered the essence of the teachers’ experiences during the remote transition. Teachers accepted a survival mentality as they were overwhelmed with responsibilities and arduous tasks. Disappointment and sadness surfaced in the teachers as students displayed apathy towards assignments, yet they discovered happiness in increased social interactions with their students. Teachers acted as mentors for students, guiding them through the educational transition while focusing on students’ physical and mental well-being. The study’s findings can be utilized to develop high-quality, equitable remote education models by identifying assistive and inhibitive factors.
Endocannabinoid system: An untold story in hypertensive nephropathy
Authors: Ahmad Ashfaq
Published: March 2023

Prognosis of hypertension leads to organ damage by causing nephropathy, stroke, retinopathy and cardiomegaly. Kidney, retinopathy and blood pressure (BP) have been discussed in plenty in relation with catecholamines of autonomic nervous system (ANS) and angiotensin II of renin angiotensin aldosterone system but very little have been told about the role of endocannabinoid system (ECS) in the regulation of kidney function, retinopathy and BP. ECS is a unique system in the body, which can be considered as master regulator of body functions. It encompasses endogenous production of its cannabinoids, its degrading enzymes and functional receptors, which innervate and perform various functions in different organs of the body. Kidney, retinopathy and BP pathologies arise normally due to elevated catecholamine and ang II, which are vasoconstrictor in their biological nature. Question arise which system or agent counterbalances the vasoconstrictors effect of noradrenaline and ang II in normal individuals? This review will not only try to illustrate the significance of ECS in the kidney and BP regulation but also establish the connection of ECS with ANS and ang II. This review will also explain that ECS, which is vasodilator in its action either independently counteract the effect produced with the vasoconstriction of ANS and ang II or by blocking some of the common pathways shared by ECS, ANS, and ang II in the regulation of kidney and BP regulation. This article conclude that persistent control of BP and normal functions of kidney is maintained either by decreasing systemic catecholamine, ang II or by up regulation of ECS, which will result in the regression of nephropathy, stroke, retinopathy, and cardiomegaly induced by hypertension.
Peer assessment processes in a problem-solving activity with future teachers

Published: March 2023

Assessing problem-solving remains a challenge for both teachers and researchers. With the aim of contributing to the understanding of this complex process, this paper presents an exploratory study of peer assessment in mathematical problem-solving activities. The research was conducted with a group of future Secondary mathematics teachers who first were asked to individually solve an open-ended problem and then, to assess a classmate’s answer in pairs. We present a study of two cases involving two pairs of students, each of whom assessed the solution of a third classmate. The analysis was carried out in two interrelated phases: (a) individual solutions to the mathematical problem and (b) the peer assessment process. The results show that, in both cases, the assessors were strongly attached to their own solutions, which directly influenced the assessment process, focused on aspects that involve the general problem-solving process and the results. The main difference between the evaluation processes followed by the two pairs lies in the concept of assessment. While the first pair focuses on assessing the resolution process and errors, the other focuses its discussion on giving a numerical grade.

Published: March 2023

Background: This study aims to estimate the knowledge, attitude, and practices of patients with diabetes towards the disease and to assess the predictors of a higher awareness of diabetes. Methods: A multi-center cross-sectional study was performed targeting 384 patients from five endocrinology clinics in Lebanon. A self-reported survey was developed and validated and an awareness score was generated. Results: Around 18% of patients reported that they stopped taking diabetes medication when feeling good and 21.1% stopped them when in bad health status. In the case of hyperglycemia, 16.6% said that they doubled the dose of medication, and 14.6% stopped taking it when fasting. The mean awareness score of patients was 15.7±3.9 over 25. After adjusting for covariates, The odds for higher awareness were 2.24 and 3.11 times higher among patients with higher education levels. These odds were 38% lower among patients with medical assistance at home. Physical activity significantly increased the odds of high awareness than those not practicing. Conclusion: Moderate awareness was noted among patients with lower knowledge of the symptoms of diabetes and good practices. Practice implications: Based on the findings of this study, healthcare stakeholders can explore the knowledge gaps and promote targeted interventions.

Authors: Ikiriko Tamunoikuronibo Dawaye  , Enwin Anthony Dornubari
Published: March 2023

This paper aims to investigate the spatial equity and accessibility of public primary schools in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of Rivers State, Nigeria. The study analyzed the distribution of public primary schools and identified spatial disparities or inequities in accessibility to these schools. Both primary and secondary data sources were utilized to determine the spatial distribution of public primary schools and population distribution in the area. The results reveal that the distribution of public primary schools was uneven and not based on population distribution in the study area. To address this, the study proposes the establishment of more than 120 primary schools to ensure that each ward has an adequate number of schools to serve its population. The study recommends policy interventions to address these spatial inequities and ensure that all children, regardless of their geographic location, have equal access to education. The study seeks to promote spatial equity and ensure that all children in the study area have equal opportunities to access quality education.

Human activity recognition is highly required to develop an assistive technology. This study proposes the use of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to classify Sit to Stand (STS) activity based on the sensor's orientation angle. There are four main phases in this research which are Sit Phase, Flexion Phase, Extension Phase, and Stabilization Phase (Stand). Human activity recognition is highly required to develop an assistive technology. STS activity is an important movement for every human being despite the inability of certain age groups to perform this movement due to weakened muscle function. The limited information from previous on the difficult phases experienced by the subjects to perform STS causes the development process of assistive devices slower. Our solution can classify those phases in real-time using the angles on Korpus Sterni (chest) and Tibia (calf) to gather information on which phase is difficult to be performed. It manages to gather and process the sensor data on application with approximately 3 seconds delay, resulting in the extension phase being a difficult phase to classify. A dataset of 32,000 samples was obtained from 8 subjects consisting of 6 subjects aged 20-30 years and 2 subjects aged 40-50 years. After experimenting and testing the performance of the ANN architecture, the neural network architecture consisted of 4 input nodes, 4 hidden layers (93-69-89-76) with appropriate hyperparameters, and 4 output layers. The training accuracy and testing accuracy reached 86% and 72% respectively.

Composite soil sediments samples were randomly collected from three polluted sites in Okrika local Government Area of Rivers State. Old Isakka (01), Imonitanbie (1M) and AgiahiAma (AA). The samples were investigated to examine the effects of crude oil pollution and heavy metals status of soil sediments and plant tissue samples from mangrove ecosystems.The soil sediments were collected at a distance of 0, 20, 40 meters and a control sample taken from distance of 140 meters away from the polluted sites near the river with a spade from each of the locations. Six samples were taken from each location (four soil sediments and two plant samples) totaling twelve sediments and six plant samples. The samples were analyzed for: Total hydrocarbon contents (THC), and heavy metals (Pb, Cd and Zn) using conventional methods of analysis. Result revealed a significant (P<0.05) increase in THC in polluted samples over control in the three locations studied. The concentration of THC in the locations decrease in order of 01>1M>AA, the pollution decreased with increase in distance. The three locations were highly polluted with hydrocarbon thus posing a threat to aquatic organisms and human that consume the sea food. THC exceeded the alert and intervention limit for sensitive and less sensitive soils. Significant (P<0.05) difference was observed in Cd concentration in control (D) over the polluted (A, B, C) in all the locations meaning that crude oil may not be responsible for the Cd in the sediments. Cadmium concentration was below the permissible limit for soil. Pb was significantly higher in polluted sediment than control in all the locations. The concentration of Pb decreases in the order of 01>1M>AA. Value of zinc was significantly higher in control than polluted. The order of increase was 01>1M>AA. Both Zinc and Pb were below the permissible limit. There was a significant (P<0.05) increase in accumulation of THC, and Pb in plant tissues in polluted than control while the converse was observed in both Zn and Cd in the three locations studied. Generally, Old Isakka (01) has higher amount of pollution in both the sediments and plant tissues than Imonitanbie and Agiahi-Ama.

Published: March 2023

Pembicaraan tentang literasi digital di Indonesia masih dominan pada keterampilan penggunaan teknologi komunikasi & informasi dan internet serta pencegahan dari pengaruh negatif yang ada. Artikel ini bertujuan memberikan rujukan tambahan di dalam kepustakaan literasi digital agar pembicaraan tentang literasi digital dapat diperluas tidak sekadar pada isu tersebut. Artikel ini adalah artikel tinjauan pustaka. Tinjauan pustaka dilakukan terhadap artikel-artikel yang diperoleh dengan metode survei internet melalui penelusuran dengan menggunakan kata kunci “literasi digital” melalui Google Scholar. Literatur lainnya di dalam pembahasan adalah peta jalan literasi digital dari Kominfo dan tulisan-tulisan akademisi internasional yang dipilih secara selektif berdasarkan jumlah kutipan tertentu melalui metode gelinding bola salju (snowballing). Hasil dari tinjauan pustaka berkenaan dengan literasi digital menghasilkan satu pendefinisian literasi digital sebagai seperangkat keterampilan (skill), pengetahuan (knowledge), pemahaman (understanding), dan kesadaran (awareness) yang dapat membuat seseorang untuk kritis, kreatif, produktif, bertanggung jawab, dan aman di dalam menggunakan teknologi informasi & komunikasi dan internet serta hadir ke dalam dunia digital sesuai dengan konteks kebutuhan dan atau lingkungan tertentu. Artikel ini juga sampai pada kesimpulan bahwa integrasi literasi digital di dalam pembelajaran di sekolah merupakan satu kemestian meskipun perlu dicermati pula akan adanya hambatan kesenjangan digital (digital divide) dalam konteks keindonesiaan.
