PERLINDUNGAN HUKUM TERHADAP ANAK KORBAN KEKERASAN SEKSUAL DI KABUPATEN ACEH BARAT
Authors: Susantri Yulia Susantri , Friwarti Sri Dwi
Published: July 2024

Abstrak – Bentuk perlindungan terhadap anak korban kekerasan seksual yang terdapat dalam UU Perlindungan Anak yang menjamin dan melindungi anak dan hak-haknya agar dapat hidup, tumbuh, berkembang, dan berpartisipasi secara maksimal sesuai dengan harkat dan martabat kemanusiaan, serta mendapat perlindungan dari kekerasan, pelecehan, dan diskriminasi tidak dapat diterapkan dengan maksimal di Aceh. Hal ini dikarenakan kewenangan penyelesaian perkara tersebut ada pada mahkamah syar’iyah dengan berlandaskan Qanun Jinayat. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian hukum berjenis penelitian normatif (gabungan) dengan menggunakan pendekatan undang-undang (statute approach). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pelaksanaan perlindungan terhadap anak korban kekerasan seksual di Aceh Barat dilaksanakan oleh Dinas pemberdayaan Perempuan Perlindungan Anak dan Keluarga Berencana (DP3AKB) Kabupaten Aceh Barat. Perlindungan terhadap anak korban kekerasan seksual dilaksanakan berdasarkan Undang-undangan terutama Undang-undang Nomor 35 Tahun 2014 Tentang Perubahan atas undang-undang Nomor 23 Tahun 2002 tentang Perlindungan Anak. Dalam proses pelaksanaannya melibatkan berbagai pihak. Anak korban kejahatan seksual mendapatkan segala hak-haknya dan memperoleh perlindungan sesuai kebutuhan anak korban. Perlindungan tersebut berupa melakukan sosialisasi ke masyarakat agar masyarakat ikut bantu membantu mencegah kekerasan seksual terhadap anak. Dinas Pemberdayaan Perempuan Perlindungan Anak dan Keluarga Berencana Kabupaten Aceh Barat juga membentuk Kelompok Forum Anak yang tersebar hampir diseluruh sekolah-sekolah yang ada di Aceh Barat yang menjadi wadah bagi anak-anak untuk bercerita masalah yg dihadapinya mencari solusi agar menjadi lebih terbuka. Adapun kasus kekerasan seksual pada anak diselesaikan di Mahkamah Syar’iyah dengan mengacu kepada Qanun Aceh Nomor 6 Tahun 2014 tentang Hukum Jinayat (Qanun Jinayat). Sehingga bentuk perlindungan yang lengkap sebagaimana dalam UU Perlindungan Anak tidak dapat diterapkan dengan maksimal.

A DISCUSSION ON AUGUSTINE'S NOTION OF PREDESTINATION AND ITS LATER INTERPRETATION IN SALVATION HISTORY
Authors: Addai-Mensah Peter
Published: July 2024

Salvation is at the core of Christianity.  It is something that can be bought.  Rather, it is offered gratuitously by God out of love.  However, each and every person has to make his/her own this salvation.  In other words, one has to make his/her own this salvation offered by God.  This article discusses the doctrine of Predestination as seen by Augustine and its later interpretation by other theologians.   In the opinion of Augustine God has the intention to save all human beings - cf. I Tim. 2:4.  God has destined this from the beginning of creation.  However, this salvation is not on a silver platter.  One has to make a conscious effort to make his/her own this salvation.  Furthermore, the article examines how later theologians have looked at the doctrine of Predestination.  Finally, the article posits that later interpretations have not been faithful to the mindset of Augustine.  It concludes that it is the intention of God to save all.  God's foreknowledge does not mean predetermination.  One has to make good use of one's Free will and choose the salvation offered by God in order to be saved.  If one misses salvation, it means one made a wrong use one's Free will.  In writing this article the author uses the literary approach that is library sources.
LUO RITUALS PERTAINING TO ANCESTRAL SPIRITS' VENERATION AND THEIR IMPLICATION ON CHRISTIAN WORSHIP - A STUDY IN THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH, KENYA LAKE CONFERENCE
Authors: Otieno Ogayo , Ayako Richard , Kandago Daniel
Published: July 2024

Purpose: This study analyzed Luo rituals pertaining to ancestral spirits veneration and their implications on Christian worship practices, in the Seventh-day Adventist Church -Kenya Lake Conference.
Methodology: The study adopted a descriptive research design and data was obtained through interviews, observations, and questionnaires. The findings were analyzed through MAXQDA 2020- qualitative data analysis software designed for companies which are analyzing different types of customer data as indicated by Radiker & Kuckartz (2020). 
Results: The results indicated that Luo rituals pertaining to ancestral spirits veneration are deeply rooted in the lives of SDA Church members and cannot be dispensed with. Moreover, Luo rituals pertaining to ancestral spirits' veneration are predominant cultural practices that seemingly engulfed every member in the community; hence affect worship practices in the Kenya Lake Conference.
Unique contribution to theory and practice: The study is informed by two major theories which are: functional and essentials of religion as presented by Durkheim (1912) and Otto (1917) respectively with a burden of explaining the benefits of various Christian worship practices and cultural veneration approaches. Essential view of Otto (1917) understands religion as binding feeling of reverence characterized with awe and fascination when worshippers are in the presence of mysterium tremendous the compelling yet repelling mystery of religion

Evolution of Nigerian Communities' Religious Beliefs and Practices
Authors: Sanusi Tobiloba
Published: July 2024

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to trace the evolution and development of religious beliefs and practices of Nigerian communities as occasioned by decades of encounter and interaction with Christianity. 
Methodology: The study adopted a desktop methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low-cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in executive's time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through the online journals and library.
Results: The results revealed that there exist conceptual and contextual gaps relating to the evolution and development of religious beliefs and practices of Nigerian communities.  Preliminary empirical review reveals that indigenous communities had developed social, economic and political organization in the pre-colonial period. They had well-established religious beliefs and practices based on ancestor veneration and the belief in the Supreme Being. The interaction between the communities and Christianity caused resistance from these communities who later accepted and blended Christian values with their indigenous culture and formed a new hybrid religion. 
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The theory of symbolic interactionism may be used to anchor the evolution and development of religious beliefs and practices of Nigerian communities. This study is important because it may provide a source of information for scholars who may wish to conduct research on similar fields as well as general readers who may be interested in reading about the culture of the indigenous communities in Nigeria.

Antisemitism in the Muslim World: An Analytical Review of Middle Eastern Dimensions of Antisemitism and Political Impact on the West
Authors: Harvey Zack
Published: July 2024

Purpose: This study aimed to increase the understanding of antisemitism in the Muslim world by conducting an analytical review of Middle Eastern dimensions of antisemitism and its political impact on the West.
Methodology: The analytical review applied a literature review approach, including primary documents (the Koran and Hadiths), books, and peer-reviewed literature. Data was extracted from the sources and subjected to content analysis, which generated relevant sections that depict antisemitism from different perspectives.
Findings: Findings from the review revealed antisemitism is becoming politically controversial due to different authors’ varied interpretations of what it constitutes. Fundamentally, antisemitism is depicted as a type of prejudice emerging from the history Muslim hatred to the Jews. Hadith were also found to influence antisemitism especially when they pronounce negative words about Jews. The study further revealed that antisemitism manifests itself in the world today through racial antisemitism and religious antisemitism. The historical Jewish persecution and genocides or pogroms in the Muslim world indicate deep-rooted antisemitism. The dangers associated with antisemitism have motivated many nations to respond to antisemitism through policies and actions intended to create a discrimination-free world. The lack of evidence of success is disputed based on the observation that while negative stereotypes and hostility persist in some areas, there are also significant efforts towards reconciliation and mutual respect.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study contributes to the understanding of the foundations of the persistent antisemitism in the Muslim world. Moreover, the study suggests that scholars may consider intensifying research in comparison with other forms of hatred or racism to develop new concepts, paradigms, and practices under which antisemitism may be studied.

A Comparative Study of Nobel Prize Winners in Chemistry and Physics over a Century Focusing on Gender and Age
Authors: Smith Jordan , Lyubartseva, PhD Ganna
Published: July 2024

The Nobel Prize is considered as one of the most prestigious awards universally. In this study, we analyzed gender and age at the time of award in two areas of physical science, chemistry and physics. Based on data from 419 laureates, we were looking for trends over the time period of one hundred twenty-three years.  We divided this period in two parts: the twentieth century and twenty-first century. Then we compared data for Chemistry and Physics Nobel Prize groups looking for similarities and differences within each field and then compared one field to another. We primarily focused on three parameters: (i) representation of women among winners, (ii) average age of all laureates and (iii) ages of men and women award winners. Our analysis indicates that women in both areas are representing a small proportion of all Chemistry and Physics Nobel Prize winners. However, there is an upward trend in women representation from the past to present century in both fields. Overall “aging” appears to be not gender-specific for both Chemistry and Physics Nobel Prize laureates. Demographic data analysis revealed an interesting fact: on average, both chemistry and physics women laureates are younger than men.  Alfred Nobel in his will of 1895 designated the prize to “those who during the preceding year have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind.” Acknowledging the global significance of a Nobel Prize, we hope that our findings will motivate more girls and women to pursue science leading to a smaller gender gap in chemistry and physics.

Published: July 2024

Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most widely planted crops globally with Argentina leading world production and exportation. Santiago del Estero province, east of Tucumán and north of Córdoba encompasses eight agro-climatic zones in the Chaco Semi-arid region, agro-ecologically characterized by a wide temperature range and frequent drought periods that expose the crop to pathogens, particularly Aspergillus flavus. This pathogen is responsible for ear rot and grain contamination with mycotoxins such as aflatoxin B1 and cyclopiazonic acid. This study obtained fungal isolates from ears of maize and characterized them according to toxigenic capability and morphotype of sclerotia (S < 400 μm, associated with high levels of aflatoxins and L > 400 μm, related to variable levels of aflatoxins). In addition, those not producing aflatoxins were studied to determine phylogenetic relationships based on sequences of a segment of the CaM gene. Fifty-eight isolates were obtained in eight localities representing each agro-climatic zone, 30 of which were non-aflatoxigenic, 28 aflatoxigenic, and all producers of ciclopiazonic acid. Six isolates did not produce sclerotia, 51 were L and only one was S, the latter being a non-producer of aflatoxins. The number of sclerotia was positively correlated with the production of aflatoxin B1, while size was negatively correlated. The CaM gene sequences corroborated that the isolates belonged to the A. flavus clade and the high nucleotide similarity among them (99.4% to 100%) revealed almost zero genetic diversity in this geographic region. No significant differences were observed in the proportion of isolates between growing seasons or among agroclimatic districts. This research revealed characteristics of fungus populations in this agricultural region of north Argentina.
Highlights:

Aspergillus flavus isolates from ears of maize were characterized according to toxigenic capability, morphotype of sclerotia and phylogenetic relationships.
Fifty-eight isolates were obtained, 30 non-aflatoxigenic, 28 aflatoxigenic, and all producers of ciclopiazonic acid.
Six isolates did not produce sclerotia, 51 were L and only one was S, the latter being a non-producer of aflatoxins.
All isolates belonged to the flavus clade. High nucleotide similarity among the isolates (99.4% to 100%) revealed almost zero genetic diversity in the region.

Authors: Bautista-Martínez Yuridia , Granados-Rivera Lorenzo Danilo , Jimenez-Ocampo Rafael , Maldonado-Jáquez Jorge A.
Published: July 2024

Goat farming is an important activity in northern Mexico. In this sense, “cabrito” or kid goat is a typical regional dish with high economic and cultural value. However, information on the morphostructural composition and meat quality of these local specimens is scarce. Given this, the objective was to evaluate morphostructural characteristics, carcass and meat quality in local kids according to sex in the northeastern region of Mexico. For this purpose, 14 kids (7 males and 7 females) 57 days old were slaughtered. Morphostructural composition was evaluated with 22 zoomometric and phenotypic variables. Carcass characteristics were evaluated by considering different body structures, carcass yield and degree of fatness. Meat quality was determined by physicochemical characteristics, nutritional value and fatty acid profile. The sex effect was evaluated by t-test of independent means and Chi-square. Meat physicochemical characteristics, nutritional value and morphostructure of local kids were heterogeneous and showed no differences (P≥0.05) concerning sex. Carcass, kidneys, head, neck, rib and loin weights were higher in males than in females (P≤0.05). Fatty acids (FA) found in greater proportion were palmitic (C16:0), oleic (C18:1, n-9), stearic (C18:0), and myristic (C14:0). These FA comprised 80.85 % of the lipid profile of male meat and 76.83% of females. These results are the basis for future programs aimed to improve production systems. Differences found could shed light on future efforts on how to differentiate goat meat from this region of Mexico and enter new markets directly benefiting small producers.
Highlights:

“Cabrito” or goat kid is a typical regional dish with high economic and cultural vale in north of México.
Carcass structures like head, neck, rib and loin were higher in males.
Fatty acids found in greater proportion in kid meat were palmitic (C16:0), oleic (C18:1, n-9), stearic (C18:0), and myristic.
These fatty acids comprised 80.85% of lipid profile in males and 76.83% in females.
Kid meat contains Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) (C22: n-3), in quantities of 0.174 to 0.225 g/ 100 g of fat. This fatty acid is very important for brain development, as well as the cognitive and visual systems.

Published: July 2024

Los gasterópodos (Mollusca: Gastropoda) comprenden las babosas y caracoles, los cuales representan uno de los grupos más diversos del reino animal con más de 100 mil especies conocidas alrededor del mundo y ocupan diferentes hábitats. Algunos son plagas en diversos cultivos hortícolas, principal actividad económica en Cerro Punta, distrito de Tierras Altas, Chiriquí, Panamá. El presente trabajo es una revisión bibliográfica sistemática sobre las alternativas de manejo integrado de plagas (MIP) disponibles para el control de gasterópodos, con un enfoque orientado a la sostenibilidad del agroecosistema; como el uso de trampas con carnada, barreras físicas, repelentes y aplicaciones de productos de bajo riesgo. Para ello, se consultó un total de 51 referencias relacionadas con la temática y publicadas en su mayoría durante los últimos 10 años; las cuales fueron ubicadas mediante plataformas como Google Scholar y ResearchGate. Para reforzar el contenido teórico, se presentan imágenes originales tomadas en campo durante el inicio de la época lluviosa (abril – mayo) y se realizaron seis entrevistas sobre alternativas de control de estas plagas; siendo la lechuga, el apio y el repollo las hortalizas comúnmente afectadas. Como conclusión, las alternativas MIP disponibles aplicadas responsablemente contra gasterópodos pueden contribuir con la reducción significativa de los impactos negativos en el ambiente y en la salud humana, dando oportunidad a que la biota funcional presente en el agroecosistema pueda actuar mediante el control biológico natural de estos organismos. Es necesario continuar investigando sobre la materia, a fin de que los productores puedan contar con mejores agrotecnologías.

Published: July 2024

El planeta a lo largo de su historia ha experimentado cambios extremos en el clima.  En el Pleistoceno, se sucedieron extensos períodos de glaciaciones e inter glaciaciones que cubrieron la mayor parte de América del Norte y Europa con gruesas capas de hielo de varios kilómetros de espesor.  En el caso del Istmo de Panamá, la isla de Coiba se encontraba anexada al territorio continental.   El estudio se basó en analizar el aumento del nivel del mar por efecto de las emisiones de GEI y la erosión en las costas de Punta Chame en el litoral Pacífico de Panamá.  La metodología que se utilizó fue descriptiva con enfoque cuantitativo y experimental, recolectando datos prospectivos de manera transversal.  Se midieron las áreas afectadas mediante la comparación de imágenes satelitales, consideramos el período comprendido del 2003 al 2023. Empleando el software ArcGIS Pro a fin de digitalizar los cambios en las líneas costeras y luego se aplicó la herramienta de Análisis de Diferencias Simétricas del mismo software para encontrar el comportamiento de las líneas costeras con mayor efecto erosivo.  El resultado de la comparación de imágenes fue la transgresión marina, con mayor énfasis en las líneas costeras nororiental y suroccidental de Punta Chame.  Se concluye que el aumento del nivel del mar plantea un desafío inevitable para el istmo de Panamá, que cuenta con costas en el Mar Caribe y el Océano Pacífico, ambas presididas por llanuras costeras.  El empleo del software ArcGIS Pro nos permitió obtener puntos de referencia para conocer de la transgresión marina en los últimos 20 años y calcular el porcentaje de erosión en las costas.  El empleo de este software podria ser la alternativa para monitorar nuestras costas a falta de equipos de mareografos en ellas.

Ruh sağlığı sadece zihinsel bozukluğun olmaması değil bütüncül sağlık tanımının önemli bir parçasıdır. Toplum ruh sağlığı ise toplumun psikolojik olarak iyi olma durumunu ifade eder. Bireylerin ruh sağlığıyla da yakından ilişkili olmakla birlikte bireylerin toplum içerisinde diğer bireylerle olan ilişkilerindeki algıları, tutum ve davranışlarının tümünü kapsar. DSÖ ruh sağlığını “bireyin kendi yeteneklerini gerçekleştirdiği, yaşamın normal stresleriyle baş edebildiği, verimli çalışabildiği ve içinde bulunduğu topluma katkı sağlayabildiği bir iyilik halidir” şeklinde tanımlamaktadır. Ruhsal sorun ve bozuklukların yaygınlığının artması ve kronikleşmesi sonucu ruhsal hastalıkların da toplum sağlığı sorunu olmasına neden olmuştur. Bireylerin, ruhsal sorunlarıyla baş etmelerine yardımcı olmak ve hastalık nedeniyle kaybettikleri rollerini yeniden kazanmalarını sağlamak amacıyla yapılan uygulamalar toplum ruh sağlığı hizmetleri içerisinde yer almaktadır. Ruh sağlığı ve ruhsal bozuklukların belirleyicileri, yalnızca kişinin bireysel nitelikleri değil, aynı zamanda ulusal politikalar, sosyal koruma gibi sosyal, kültürel, ekonomik, politik, yaşam standartları, çalışma koşulları ve toplumsal sosyal destekler ve çevresel faktörleri de içermektedir. Ruh sağlığındaki amaç sadece hasta bireyleri iyileştirmek değil sağlıklı insanların yaşam kalitelerini artırmak olmalıdır. Bu derlemede toplum ruh sağlığını geniş perspektifte açıklayarak halk sağlığı hemşireliğinin önemli bir kolu olan toplum ruh sağlığı hemşireliğinin rolünü ve toplum ruh sağlığı merkezlerinin fonksiyonlarını genel bir çerçevede sunmak ve ülkemizdeki mevcut durumu açıklamak amaçlanmaktadır.

Yenidoğan yoğun bakım üniteleri önemli sağlık sorunları olan yenidoğan bebeklerin tedavi edildiği teknolojik açıdan donanımlı birimlerdir. Bu teknolojik donanım bugün preterm doğan birçok bebeğin yaşama şansını arttırmıştır. Ancak hala enfeksiyon, preterm doğum, düşük doğum ağırlığı ve yoğun bakım ortamındaki olumsuz çevresel faktörler (ısı, ışık, ağrılı uyaranlar, vb.) prematüre bebeklerin gelişimlerini olumsuz etkilemekte yatış süresini uzatmakta dolayısıyla maliyeti arttırmaktadır. Literatürde çoğu çalışma hastanede yatışla paralel olarak stres ve travmanın prematüre bebekler için uzun vadede olumsuz psikososyal etkilerinin olabileceği belirtilmiştir. Olgu 35+6 GH preterm bebek sepsis tanısıyla takip edilmektedir. Üçüncü düzey yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitesinde ilk yatış ve sonrasında post-op takip edilen preterm bebek A’nın hemşirelik bakım süreci 50 gündür devam etmektedir. İlk değerlendirmede ağrı skoru yüksek, konfor düzeyi düşük belirlenen bebeğin bakımdan primer sorumlu olan hemşirelerin bebeğe verdiği hemşirelik bakımı kritik rol oynamaktadır. Hemşirelik kuramlarına dayalı uygulanacak bir bakım planı bebeğin konforunu arttırarak refahına kavuşması için yol gösterici olmaktadır. Prematüre bebeği bütüncül bakış açısıyla değerlendirerek, bebeğe özgü hastalık girdilerini belirlemek ve bakımı sistematize etmek arasındaki ilişki oldukça önemlidir. Kolcaba’nın Konfor kuramını kullanarak oluşturduğumuz bakım planının, sepsisli preterm bir bebeğin sağlık çıktılarına etkisini incelediğimiz bu çalışmada kurama dayalı oluşturduğumuz girişimler bebeğin konfor düzeyini yükselterek ağrı puanını düşürmüştür.

Trabalhar a promoção da saúde consiste em produzir ferramentas que auxiliem a comunidade a desenvolver a criticidade diante de hábitos e atitudes que se tornam rotineiros, e que acabam prejudicando a saúde individual e coletiva. Assim, o trabalho consiste em relato de experiência realizado através de atividades desenvolvidas pela Liga Acadêmica de Saúde e Meio Ambiente (LiASM) da Universidade Regional Integrada do Alto Uruguai e das Missões – URI/Santiago, onde ocorreu a realização de oficinas de extensão para trabalhar o descarte incorreto de medicamentos, as principais zoonoses emergentes e uma campanha de vacinação junto ao Interact. As atividades ocorreram em espaços formais e informais de aprendizagem, envolveram planejamento, coleta de medicamentos vencidos, visualização de espécies de morcegos da coleção zoológica da Universidade e incentivo a vacinação de poliomielite. Para análise dos resultados utilizou-se a Teoria Fundamentada dos Dados (TFD) onde ocorreu a elaboração da categoria central, intitulada: Promoção da saúde e saber científico, delimitando 3 categorias de análise: promoção da saúde na escola; saúde em espaços não formais, protagonismo acadêmico e disseminação de conhecimento. Conclui-se que ações educativas que envolvem as ligas acadêmicas promovem conhecimento, disseminação de informações, alfabetização científica; além de auxiliar a comunidade local a desenvolver a criticidade, auxiliando a promoção da saúde de forma individual e coletiva.

INTRODUÇÃO: A fitoterapia, enraizada em práticas ancestrais, integrou-se ao cotidiano. Contudo, com o avanço da pesquisa sobre plantas medicinais, a cautela em sua utilização, devido aos metabólitos secundários, tornou-se crucial, especialmente para crianças, dadas as diferenças fisiológicas e os desafios na fundamentação científica pediátrica. A lacuna entre conhecimento tradicional e perspectivas científicas destaca a necessidade de investigar a fitoterapia nesse grupo. MÉTODOS: Realizou-se uma revisão sistemática da literatura abrangendo os aspectos da fitoterapia pediátrica. Foram exploradas bases de dados como PUBMED, SCIELO e ResearchGate, utilizando termos relacionados ao tema, em português e inglês, e aplicando critérios de inclusão e exclusão para a seleção dos estudos. A análise priorizou a segurança e eficácia da fitoterapia em crianças, com o objetivo de identificar padrões e tendências. RESULTADOS: A análise destaca desafios, como a falta de padronização nos materiais vegetais e escassez de estudos sobre fitoterapia em crianças, prejudicando avaliações precisas. Fatores como a imaturidade dos sistemas e órgãos infantis, a falta de conscientização dos pais e a omissão de informações durante consultas médicas são obstáculos à implementação segura. Enfatiza-se a importância da orientação especializada para otimizar benefícios e reduzir riscos em crianças, sublinhando a necessidade de supervisão. CONCLUSÃO: A fitoterapia pediátrica requer análise cuidadosa de desafios, com ações para preencher lacunas na pesquisa. Estudos futuros devem focar em ensaios clínicos para estabelecer protocolos seguros e eficazes, destacando sua eficácia com acompanhamento médico. Sublinha-se a importância da colaboração entre saberes populares e medicina convencional para orientação segura no cuidado à saúde infantil.
