Authors: Hafansyah Hisan , Syahuri Taufiqurrohman
Published: July 2024

Terbentuknya organisasi kemasyarakatan merupakan salah satu bentuk dari kebebasan berserikat dan berkumpul dalam kehidupan negara hukum yang berdemokrasi. Front Pembela Islam (FPI) adalah salah satu contoh organisasi masyarakat yang ada di Indonesia. Akan tetapi, FPI telah dibubarkan oleh pemerintah melalui Surat Keputusan Bersama (SKB) tentang Larangan Kegiatan, Penggunaan Simbol dan Atribut, serta Penghentian Kegiatan Front Pembela Islam yang dikeluarkan pada tanggal 30 Desember 2020. Tindakan pemerintah ini menimbulkan polemik dan memunculkan beberapa pertanyaan apa penyebab dibubarkannya ormas FPI oleh pemerintah, kemudian bagaimana perspektif hukum tata negara tentang pembubaran ormas FPI. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui penyebab dibubarkannya ormas FPI oleh pemerintah, kemudian untuk mengetahui bagaimana perspektif Hukum Tata Negara tentang pembubaran ormas FPI. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian hukum normatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan (statute approach) dan pendekatan konseptual (conceptual approach). Hasil penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa beberapa penyebab organisasi Kemasyarakatan FPI dibubarkan oleh pemerintah yaitu, pertama, FPI telah dianggap bubar secara de jure oleh pemerintah sejak tanggal 21 Juni 2019 karena sudah tidak memiliki legal standing sebagai ormas. Kedua, FPI dalam menegakkan amar ma´ruf nahi munkar kerap disertai dengan tindakan anarkis dan kekerasan, bahkan sampai kepada perbuatan melanggar hukum. Maka dari itu, pemerintah mengeluarkan SKB untuk melarang dan menghentikan kegiatan FPI. Berdasarkan perspektif Hukum Tata Negara, pembubaran ormas FPI telah sesuai dengan peraturan perundangan-undangan yang berlaku. Selain itu, penggunaan SKB untuk melarang dan menghentikan kegiatan FPI dari segi hukum normatif ini menggunakan menggunakan penelitian kualitatif, Selain itu telah sesuai dengan prinsip-prinsip negara hukum dan prinsip-prinsip negara demokrasi.

Published: July 2024

Salah satu unsur yang harus ada dalam negara hukum dan demokrasi adalah perlindungan hak asasi manusia, termasuk  perlindungan anak, yang akan menentukan masa depan negara Indonesia dan menjamin generasi penerus memiliki peraturan yang jelas. Menerima hak dalam hal ini di bawah perlindungan hukum. Prinsip perlindungan anak merupakan prinsip tanpa kekerasan yang menitikberatkan pada kepentingan anak dan hak atas perlindungan kehidupan, kesejahteraan, tumbuh kembang anak, termasuk anak yang melakukan kejahatan. Penilitian ini adalah penelitian hukum normatif yaitu penelitian hukum yang meletakkan hukum sebagai sebuah bangunan sistem norma. Sistem peradilan pidana anak digunakan oleh penegak hukum untuk memutuskan sanksi pidana terhadap anak yang melakukan tindak pidana atau anak yang berhadapan dengan hukum. Kepentingan terbaik anak harus menjadi prioritas utama dalam pemidaan anak. Namun menurut Undang-undang Nomor 11 Tahun 2012 tentang Sistem Peradilan Pidana Anak. Peradilan Pidana Anak berada di bawah ruang lingkup Peradilan Umum. Dalam menyelesaikan prosedur pengalihan dan keadilan restoratif yang sesuai dengan ketentuan perundang-undangan untuk anak yang berhadapan dengan hukum. Upaya penyelesaian menggunakan metode mediasi, konsiliasi, dan restitusi secara bersamaan untuk menyatukan pihak dengan penyelesaian. Oleh karena itu, kasus anak yang berkonflik dengan hukum wajib diusahakan untuk tidak melibatkan proses peradilan. Sebaliknya, kasus tersebut dialihkan ke luar proses peradilan (non-litigasi).

The researchers either as Psycholinguistics scientists, linguists and others, agree about the fact of language acquisition, but they disagree in their interpretation to this process. They also have multiple views about that because of disagreement in theoretical trends that they issue about it, which forms their vision of what can be subdivided from that of concepts and models.
The two most notable theoretical trends that affected the study of language and thinking, language and acquisition are: The structural behavioral trend with its psychological and linguistic theories, as well as the cognitive rational direction which is represented by the views of Chomsky and Steven Pinker, who adopted this trend.
This study considers language as a gift for the humans, according to Chomsky, man is born provided by the programmed knowledge initially, or a basic plan for language, it was also said that there are  some restrictions which are considered to be as a foundation for  language acquisition, which is accompanied by a small system of media / (the variables), which are similar to a list of the available choices, that languages differ in installing their values.

OUTCOME OF INGUINAL HERNIA REPAIR BY MESH AND NON-MESH REPAIR
Authors: Patel Gaurav , Vishwakarma Anshuman , Kumar Akhilesh
Published: July 2024

Inguinal hernia is common, particularly in males (around 25% incidence) and less so in females (about 2%). Various procedures are used to repair
inguinal hernias, each with different techniques and surgical approaches. The present study aimed to assess the efciency of mesh tissue repair in
comparison with non-mesh tissue repair. This prospective observational comparative study was conducted at Bokaro General Hospital, Jharkhand,
over 18 months with institutional ethical approval. The study included 100 patients randomly assigned to either the mesh repair group (n=50) or the
non-mesh repair group (n=50). All patients were assessed for duration of hospital stay, postoperative pain, complications, and return to work. Mesh
repair was associated with shorter hospital stays (4.42 days vs 5.12 days, P=0.001) and lower postoperative pain scores at various intervals (Day 3:
2.64 vs 3.2; 1 month: 0.98 vs 2; 3 months: 0.74 vs 1.5; 6 months: 0.14 vs 0.16, all P<0.05). Rates of complications (hematoma, wound infection,
recurrence) were comparable between groups (P>0.05). A signicantly higher proportion of mesh repair patients returned to work compared to
non-mesh repair patients (100% vs 88%, P=0.011). The study showed that mesh repair for hernias is associated with shorter hospital stays and
comparable complication rates to non-mesh repair. Initial differences in return-to-work rates between the groups diminish over time, indicating
both approaches are effective, though mesh repair may offer faster recovery.
A CASE SERIES OF HAPHEPHOBIA: A RARE SPECIFIC PHOBIA
Authors: Deb Arnab , Chakma Priyajyoti , Debbarma Siddhartha
Published: July 2024

Background: Haphephobia is the fear of being touched. People with this type of phobia experience intense, irrational distress at the thought of
being touched. It comes under the diagnosis of specic phobias as per DSM 5 and ICD 11. The Cases:We present a series of four cases, seen by our
psychiatry consultation service over last 2 years period, where all 4 of them had been diagnosed with haphephobia, with two having past history of
triggering incidents. They were successfully managed by pharmacological agents (SSRIs and Benzodiazepines) along with non-pharmacological
approaches like exposure therapy, insight-oriented psychotherapy. Conclusion: Because patients with isolated specic phobia like haphephobia
rarely present for treatment, there is little research on them. We advocate for further research on the specic phobias and all physicians to be aware
about them, to improve the outcome of the patients.

Authors: Joshi Sachin , Patni Aaditya , Bairwa Nitin Kumar
Published: July 2024

Context: Clavicular fracture is a common trauma presentation due to supercial location. Common techniques of xation include an open
reduction and internal xation by antero-superior precontoured locking plate or open/closed intramedullary xation with Titanium Elastic Nail.
Aims: Aim of this study was to evaluate and compare results of internal xation of displaced middle third clavicle fractures using these two
modalities. Settings And Design: Hospital based Prospective Comparative Randomized interventional study Methods And Material: Two
groups were made for each modality with 25 cases each. Patients were followed for up to 6 months. Primary outcome measures were Constant and
Murley scores, and clinical and radiological union. Secondary outcome measures included complications. Statistical Analysis: Chi square test,
and independent t tests were performed to calculate p value and hence the signicance of the results. Results: Mean time of clinical union of plating
group was 7.36 weeks v/s 9.68 weeks for the nailing group. Mean time of radiological union was 9.60 weeks in plating group v/s 12.16 weeks for
nailing group. Constant scores were 91.24 for plating group while it was 87.36 for nailing group at the end of the 6 month follow up. 76% of patients
in plating group had no complications while 64% of patients in nailing group were free of complications. Nailing group had more delayed union,
nail migration, skin irritation, and 1 case had peri-implant fracture. Conclusions: Open reduction Internal xation of displaced middle third
clavicle fractures with precontoured locking plate led to better fracture union rates, less complications, and better functional outcomes as compared
to Closed/open reduction internal xation with titanium elastic nail system.

Vaseline dressing and the other group of patients was dressed with combination of papain urea cream on deep burn wounds & supercial burn
wounds were treated with 1%SSD/Nanocrystaline silver cream. The wound dressing was changed everyday after proper bathing with fresh tap
water and followed by normal saline. Wound parameters were assessed regularly , using clinical methods and photographs. The obtained data
were statistically analyzed and results produced. Results:In our study, most patients were noted to have early separation of slough , decreased
blood loss, less painful, less number of surgical debridement , early skin grafting following dressing with papain urea on deep burn wounds &
SSD/Nanocrystaline silver combination (PUC group) when compared to 1% silver sulfadiazine cream with Vaseline (SSD) group. The mean
hospital stay was less in of patients who were undergoing dressing with papain urea on deep burn wounds & SSD/Nanocrystaline silver
combination(PUC group) when compared to 1% silver sulfadiazine cream and Vaseline group (SSD group) . The papain urea Conclusions:
cream on deep burn wounds & SSD/Nanocrystaline silver on supercial burn wounds combination resulting in early & easy separation of slough
from wound bed , early preparation of wound for grafting & thereby decreasing hospital stay has been estabilshed. Considering the above ndings
papain urea is more recommended to be used for deep burn wounds for enzymatic debridement.

Macrodystrophia lipomatosa is a rare congenital non-hereditary disorder that has signicant impact on patient morbidity.[1]It is characterised by
progressive proliferation of all mesenchymal elements, with disproportionate increase in broadipose tissue.[2]Macrodystrophia lipomatosa
presents as localised gigantism of the hand or foot and comes to clinical attention for cosmetic reasons, mechanical problems secondary to
degenerative joint disease, or development of neurovascular compression.[3,8] It is a hamartomous enlargement leading to localized or
generalized gigantism of a limb which can present anywhere from infancy to late adulthood.This disease is characterized by progressive
enlargement of the brofatty tissue.[4,6]Imaging ndings include hypertrophy of the mesenchymal elements of the involved digits and/or limbs
predominantly bro adipose component with associated overgrowth of the phalanges.[5,6] Macrodystrophia lipomatosa affects either the upper or
lower limb, classically occurring in a median or plantar nerve territory.[7]In the vast majority of patients, overgrowth is unilateral and localized in
the ngers or toes.[8]In this case report, we present a case of unilateral involvement of ring nger and middle nger of right hand with associated
macrodactyly with a diagnosis of Macrodystrophia lipomatosa.

Published: July 2024

Etiology of inammatory periodontal disease is multifactorial with both infectious and inammatory components. The etiological signicance of
biological and behavioral risk factors includes smoking. Smokers have been classied as current smokers, former smokers and passive smokers.
Byproducts of smoking inhibit the mechanisms that restrict the growth of pathogenic bacteria in the oral cavity and gives a favourable environment
for bacteria in the mouth like P.gingivalis, P.intermedia and A.actinomycetemcomitans. This paper reviews the effects of smoking on various
aspects of periodontal disease process and focuses on the change brought about by smoking and its effect on the initiation and progression of
periodontal diseases.

Introduction: Iron deciency (ID) is a signicant comorbidity of heart failure (HF). However, ID remains insufciently detected(Manceau et al.,
2022). The symptoms of ID are non-specic and often confused with those of HF or comorbidities. HF patients with ID are often re-hospitalized
and have decrease life expectancy. Aim: Method: Evaluation of iron status in patients with chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. It is
a cross sectional study of 80 adult patients of chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction attending medicine outpatient department in SSG
hospital, Vadodara, India. Result: Prevalence of ID in heart failure patients was 43.8% in this study. In ID group 40.0% of patients had two past
history of hospitalization and in non-ID group majority (64.4%) of patients had only 1 past history of hospitalization. In ID group most (82.9%) of
patients had <30% LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction) and 17.1% of patients had LVEF between 31% and 40%. Conclusion: This study
reinforces the usefulness of iron status evaluation in the routine assessment of chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction as it is common to
have iron deciency in them and it is amenable to correction reducing morbidity

Authors: Kumar Bhuvnesh , Chaubey Neelesh , Shah Sunil Kumar
Published: July 2024

Rapimelt tablets oral drug delivery is currently the gold standard in the pharmaceutical industry where it is regarded as the safest, most convenient
and most economical method of drug delivery having the highest patient compliance. Methods to improve patient's compliance have always
attracted scientists towards the development of fancy oral drug delivery systems. Among them, Rapimelt tablets drug delivery systems (RmDDS)
have acquired an important position in the market by overcoming previously encountered administration problems and contributing to extension of
patent life. (RmDDS) have the unique property of rapidly disintegrating and/or dissolving and releasing the drug as soon as they come in contact
with saliva, thus obviating the requirement of water during administration. Therefore, these dosage forms have lured the market for a certain
section of the patient population which includes dysphagic, bed ridden, psychic, and geriatric and paediatric patients. Research in developing
repadily disintegrating systems has been aimed at investigating excipients as well as technique to meet these challenges. Technologies used for
manufacturing of Rapimelt tablets are either conventional technologies or patented technologies. In conventional freeze drying, tablet molding,
sublimation, spray drying etc. and in patented Zydis technology, Orasolv technology, Durasolv technology, Wowtab technology, Flashdose
technology are important. Important ingredients that are used in the formulation of ODTs should allow quick release of the drug, resulting in faster
dissolution.

Authors: Josefina S. Viernes , Randy G. Olano
Published: July 2024

This study aimed to examine respondents' financial planning status, their familiarity with various investment vehicles, and their investment preferences. Using the Theory of Planned Behavior, the researchers analyzed whether there is a correlation between financial literacy, financial planning, and awareness of investment vehicles and the investment preferences of public-school teachers. The researchers utilized a mixture of snowball and quota sampling method to gather data. By the end of the allotted time period, a total of 55 responses were gathered. Results showed that there is a significant relationship between subjective financial literacy and financial planning. However, there is no significant relationship between financial literacy and investment preference except for three occasions. Findings also revealed that there is a significant relationship between financial planning and investment preference in the areas of financing large purchases, protecting life and assets, investing savings, planning retirement. Lastly, the level of awareness about most investment products and the respondents' investment preference was found to be significant except for the following investment vehicles: Small Business, Networking, Time Deposit, Corporate and Government Bonds, Treasury Bills, and Long Term Negotiable Certificate of Deposit. These findings revealed that relationships between variables are not entirely significant there fore, investment preference may not be predicted using these constructs. However, due to the limitations in the time allotted to gather the data, the results might have been severely affected, thus, it is recommended that other researchers continue what has been started by this study. Future researchers may course through their survey for public school teachers through the heads of the Department of Education or the presidents of the two state universities in the province to get a higher number of responses.

Authors: Sudiro  , Liddini Laily
Published: July 2024

The Arabic competence of students in Indonesia is in the low category. The low proficiency in Arabic is due to various reasons, especially because the process of learning Arabic in Indonesia only focuses on certain competencies, not comprehensively. The Ta'riji method seeks to introduce a more comprehensive Arabic learning method and improve all aspects of Arabic language skills. Various discussions used in this method can be practically applied in everyday life. This method was introduced and taught to Madrasah Diniyah teachers in Purwojati District, Banyumas Regency. As a result, there was an increase in the Arabic language skills of students taught by madrasah diniyah teachers who had attended intensive Ta'riji Method training.

Our global community is experiencing the highest numbers of internally displaced persons and refugees brought about by crises and war. Not since World War II have we seen such huge numbers of persons who have been separated from their families and communities and are without homes. The war in Ukraine alone, caused by Russia’s illegal invasion, has contributed to over 14 million refugees and displaced persons, of which, according to UNICEF, 4.6 million are children. This panel explored how the arts can contribute towards restoring common humanity and dignity to those in crisis. Practical examples of how the arts and arts therapies are being used with refugees and displaced persons across the globe were presented. Topics such as safety, space and place, peer support, and collaboration were revisited as these relate to resilience, wellness, and empowerment. Three major questions guided the presenters as they shared their experience in working with people in crisis:

Why use the arts when working with refugees and displaced persons?
How are the arts understood/perceived as they are being integrated in this field of work?
How do we restore common dignity and humanity to persons living in crisis?

As massas cardíacas são formações sólidas de etiologia variável, sendo fundamental o diagnóstico acurado, sobretudo nas de natureza maligna, que estão associadas à pior prognóstico. Em decorrência dessa diversidade, frequentemente é necessário associar diferentes métodos de imagem na sua investigação. Os métodos convencionais de imagem cardiovascular incluem o ecocardiograma transtorácico, a ressonância magnética e a tomografia cardíaca, que permitem caracterizar aspectos anatômicos e repercussões hemodinâmicas associadas à massa. No entanto, em decorrência de suas limitações, maior precisão no estudo etiológico da massa é alcançada quando a Medicina Nuclear é associada à propedêutica, através da tomografia por emissão de pósitrons associada a tomografia computadorizada com a fluordeoxiglicose-Flúor-18 (FDG PET/CT). Suas especificidades incluem a eficácia na avaliação da atividade metabólica das massas cardíacas, especialmente na diferenciação entre benignas e malignas, na capacidade de indicar o melhor sítio de biópsia e de estadiar o corpo inteiro.
O valor máximo do Standardized Uptake Value (SUVmax) é usado como parâmetro quantitativo do grau de captação de FDG pela massa, sendo um SUVmax elevado sugestivo de malignidade. A interpretação dos achados da FDG PET/CT deve ser feita em conjunto com a clínica e as imagens convencionais para uma conclusão mais assertiva. Desse modo, a abordagem multimodal, especialmente com a inclusão da FDG PET/CT, permite uma diferenciação mais precisa entre massas cardíacas benignas e malignas, contribuindo para o manejo adequado do paciente.

Environmental sustainability refers to maintaining ecological balance. Human activities have historically contributed to carbon emissions and environmental degradation, exacerbating global climate change and threatening the planet's habitability. To address these challenges and achieve sustainability goals, the LIFE initiative was introduced. It aims for widespread global adoption to yield significant benefits such as reducing energy inequalities, mitigating air pollution, achieving cost savings, and enhancing overall well-being and health.India faces several pressing environmental issues, including increasing atmospheric CO2 levels, accelerated melting of Himalayan ice sheets at rates ten times faster than in previous centuries, projections of a 2-6 feet rise in global sea levels by 2100, and potential economic losses estimated at 18% of GDP by 2050 if no climate action is taken (Source: Swiss Re). This paper will comprehensively explore the expansive scope and objectives of the LIFE campaign, emphasizing its focus on promoting a sustainable lifestyle for the environment. Additionally, it will detail strategies for effective implementation, particularly through widespread awareness campaigns aimed at fostering a global community committed to environmental stewardship.

Published: July 2024

The purpose of the study is to assess the radiation safety of agricultural products in agricultural landscapes with additional radiation load. The work provides a literature review on assessing the radiation safety of feed and livestock products produced in agrobiocenoses contaminated as a result of radiation accidents in the territories of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus. The paper reflects the radioecological situation in the central parts of the Krasnoyarsk Region. The studies were conducted in the period 2016–2018 on the basis of the laboratory of the Federal State Budgetary Institution GCAS Krasnoyarskiy and the radiation monitoring laboratory SHANECO Siberia – a branch of JSC SHANECO Group JSC. In this work, based on a radioecological survey of agricultural landscapes in the central parts of the Krasnoyarsk Region, landscapes with anthropogenic pollution were identified, data on the specific activity of 137Cs in green and roughage harvested in hay-pasture agrobiocenoses of agricultural landscapes in the central parts of the Krasnoyarsk Region were obtained. The content of 137Cs in livestock products produced in agricultural landscapes with additional technogenic load was assessed. The content of 137Cs in the feed of agricultural landscapes with absorbed doses of 1.33 and 1.55 mGy/year exceeds the value of the specific activity of technogenic cesium in the Krasnoyarsk Region. In agricultural landscapes with additional technogenic pollution, the specific activity of the daily diet for 137Cs is higher than in the rest of the region. In agricultural landscapes with doses of 1.33 and 1.55 mGy/year, the content of 137Cs in feed does not reach the control levels established by instruction № 13-7-2/216; accordingly, radiation-safe feed is produced in the Krasnoyarsk Region. In agricultural landscapes with absorbed doses of 1.33 and 1.55 mGy/year, the specific activity of 137Cs in cow's milk was found to be exceeded, but the established content of technogenic 137Cs does not exceed the requirements of SanPiN 2.3.2.1078-01.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate new broccoli hybrids as raw materials for the production of new generation puree products with increased nutritional value and a high degree of readiness for consumption, including components of children's, dietary and gerontological nutrition. The object of the study is a puree prepared from 6 new broccoli hybrids (2 domestic and 4 foreign). Studies of raw materials and purees were carried out according to generally accepted methods. Biochemical analyzes were fulfilled before and after the end of the storage period: dry matter was determined according to GOST 28561-90 by drying the sample at a temperature of 105 °C until a constant mass appeared; vitamin C – according to GOST 24556-89 by extracting it with a solution of hydrochloric acid, followed by visual titration; sugars – accor-ding to GOST 8756.13–87, by a method based on the ability of the carbonyl groups of sugars to reduce copper (I) oxide to copper (II) oxide in an alkaline medium; nitrates – according to GOST 29270-95 using the ionometric method. Pigment content was carried out by spectrophotometric method as modified by J. Oliver (2000). To calculate pigment concentrations, the formulas of Wintermans and De Mots were used. Correlation analysis was performed using MS Excel 2007. Organoleptic properties – according to GOST 8756.1-2017. Purees made from domestic broccoli hybrids contained, on average, more vitamin C (by 5.9 mg%), monosaccharides (by 0.19), disaccharides (by 0.02), and total sugars (by 0.21 mg%). At the same time, purees from domestic hybrids contained less nitrates (by 0.6 mg/kg) and dry substances (by 0.1 %). The best in terms of organoleptic indicators were purees made from the hybrids Children's Delicacy (4.6 points), Macho (4.46 points) and Batavia (4.52 points). Hybrids of domestic selection Children's delicacy and Macho, as well as the foreign hybrid Batavia, are promising raw materials for the production of puree products with increased nutritional value and a high degree of readiness for consumption.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the possibility of using the plant component of the peduncle Allium Sativum in the formulations of meat snacks. Objectives: to establish a rational amount of Allium Sativum peduncle added to minced meat snacks; to determine the qualitative characteristics of prototypes and comparison with those of the control sample; to develop stages for preparing meat snacks from chi-cken meat with the addition of a plant ingredient. The traditional recipe for making meat snacks was used as a control sample. The peduncle of Allium Sativum was collected in the vicinity of the city of Krasnoyarsk during its technical maturity in July 2023. After collection, it was dried at a temperature of 60 °C in a vegetable dryer, after which it was crushed. Experimental samples were prepared based on the recipe of the control sample with the addition of a new ingredient of the peduncle Allium Sativum, which was added to the minced meat in powder form in various dosages. An organoleptic and tasting assessment of the samples was carried out, on the basis of which the best prototype was selected. According to the obtained results of quality indicators of meat snacks with the addition of Allium Sativum peduncle, it was established that the rational dosage of the introduced plant ingredient is 1 % instead of raw meat. A basic scheme for producing snacks from chicken meat with the addition of the Allium Sativum peduncle, which is introduced into the minced meat system during its formation, is proposed. The introduction of the Allium Sativum peduncle into the recipe of meat snacks instead of minced meat will help improve the consumer properties of meat products, increase the biologically active substances in its composition, expand the range, and reduce the cost of finished products.
