Nursing theory development
Authors: Sousa Valmi , Hayman Laura
Published: July 2022

This paper analyzes knowledge and theory development in the discipline of nursing. Nursing theory development is characterized by nursing’s unique perspective: a distinct focus of the discipline of nursing. In a recognized nursing theory, the nursing metaparadigm’s concepts of person, environment, health, and nursing are defined, and the interrelationships among those concepts are described. Knowledge development in the discipline of nursing has generated and continues to generate philosophical, theoretical, and scientific knowledge, which serve as a basis for further reflections, investigations, and refinement, and as a source of new knowledge. In addition, nursing theory development has been related to borrowed or shared theories from or with other disciplines such as anthropology, education, sociology, and psychology.

Published: July 2022

Although the OBJN has not complete an year of existence, it is part of the process of nursing research. The OBJN vision is to make each nurse a consumer of nursing journals so we can have, in Brazil, 90.000 lectors, soon.To realize the OBJN vision and mission, a plan of goals, strategies, rand monitoring has been set forth for the first year from April 2002 through April 2003.Our goals were and still are: * Expande the OBJN subscription and authors colaboration in Brazil and abroad as well as the Editorial Board. The strategies were the utilization of  mechanisms (members of editorial Board, eletronic newsletter, editor´s forum) available for snaring work of OBJN across nursing schools, hospitals, communities, etc; and the communication of interest in receive articles and abstracts in letters to organizations, members of editorial board, and subscribers. Our Editorial Board has 41 members from Brazil, North, Central and South America, and Europe. In 2002, the OBJN received 18 articles and 4 abstracts. After a three peer-review blind analyses, 16 articles and 3 were published.  *Include OBNJ into nursing references databases. The strategies were the dissemination of the OBJN, the publication of research articles in the journal and the exploration of potential indexation on nursing references databases (CINAHL, LILACS, etc.); and the inclusion of ONBJ internet data bases by establishing linkages with relevant groups (NurseLinx, Nurse Editor, etc) and organizations (BIREME).  *Colaborate with other nursing journals, and organizations nurses involved in research and knowledge managent in dissemination of nursing knowledge, in sepecial the Brazilian nursing knowledge nationally and internationally. The strategies were the OBJN presence on Nursing Journals Editors´Forum  and the OBJN link with specialty organization (NEPAE, NESEN, Nurse Linx, UNIFESP, BIREME, etc). I am hopeful that what was obtained in 2002 will be consolidate and more will be get in 2003. The Strategic Plan 2002-2003 will enable OBJN to continue its mission which is to share nursing knowledge for the empowerment of the Brazilian nursing profession. It will permit also to expand the OBJN vision to have 1 nurse publishing in scientific journals for each 10 nurses. Soon! By the way: the OBJN would like to thanks the nursing authors that colaborate with our journal. We are also very grateful to our subscribers and to our Editoral Board.

Conceptual analysis of self-care agency
Authors: Souza Valmi
Published: July 2022

The concept of self- care agency was developed by Orem (1980) as a component of Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory (SCD-NT). Since its development, self-care agency concept has been applied widely in the discipline of nursing to determine the relationship between self-care agency and other concepts of the Orem SCD-NT in various populations. In this paper, the author analyzes the concept of self-care agency using Wilson’s Conceptual Analysis Method as modified by Walker & Avant (1995). In particular, the use of the self-care agency concept is considered as it relates to conditioning factors, self-care actions, and specific outcomes in nursing research and practice.

Authors: Santos Sérgio Ribeiro dos , Nóbrega Maria Miriam Lima da , Rodrigues Filho José
Published: July 2022

The purpose of this work is to describe the emergence of alternative paradigms in information systems development and research showing that the crisis of the dominant paradigm has had an influence in the development of nursing information systems. An attempt has been made to focus on the dominant paradigm (positivism/functionalism) and on the alternative paradigms of inquiry in information systems. The analysis points out a paradigmatic crisis in nursing with the appearance of a new consciousness of the meaning of a paradigm which stress the practice in systems development. This new paradigmatic perspective try to define a new worldview with implications in nursing practice which claims a change of perspective in the social actors involved.
From uncertainity to accuracy: reflexions about nursing care under the perspective of heidegger´s theory
Authors: Simões Sonia Mara Farias
Published: July 2022

Introduction: The descriptive research had os objetives to describe the cientific thought influence in  breaking up of the health care and to consider the holistic care in nursing under Heidegger conception. Development: Men always have as characteristic to ask about the origin of the universe. They search to explain these questions through the mythological thought and subsequently through the cientific and technological throught. So, in the fifteen century came the science that was imposing your certainty, evidence and universality in the world. It benefited the generalization and the breaking up of the health care. Actually, new concepts of science and of the world have appeared because the last ones didn’t comprehend the human phenomena complexity. As the recently tendency of nursing is to reconsider men on a holistic way, I believe that the care and the cure under Heidegger conception promote a differentiated professional atitude. That characterized on helping the client to be trasparent for yourself and free for the your being and its possibilities. Conclusion: Getting back health care as a holistic experience, while nursing professionals can contribuite for population quality of life, for the practice of citizenships, and can be present in the society.

Relative Racialization and Asian American College Student Activism
Authors: MUSEUS SAMUEL D.
Published: July 2022

In this qualitative study, Samuel D. Museus analyzes how relative racialization processes and their dynamics shape Asian American college students’ racial justice activism. The findings from his qualitative interviews with activist Asian American undergraduates reveal how these students perceived relative racialization processes as raising barriers to their racial justice efforts. Specifically, they saw these forms of racialization as promoting racialized comparisons and competition among communities of color involved in racial justice activism and as leading to the marginalization of Asian Americans in racial justice agendas—which reinforced internalized racism that inhibited racial justice work within this population.
Amazon and the New Global Connective Architectures of Education Governance
Authors: WILLIAMSON BEN , GULSON KALERVO N. , PERROTTA CARLO , WITZENBERGER KEVIN
Published: July 2022

In this analytical essay, part of Harvard Educational Review’s symposium on Platform Studies in Education, Ben Williamson, Kalervo N. Gulson, Carlo Perrotta, and Kevin Witzenberger argue that global technology companies have begun acting as governance organizations in education. Their analysis focuses on the global technology company Amazon, which has begun penetrating education through a connective architecture of digital infrastructure and platform services. Looking at Amazon technical documentation and publicly available materials, the authors identify and examine five interlocking governance operations and their effects: inscribing commercial business models on the education sector, habituating educational users to Amazon technologies, creating new interfaces with educational institutions, platforming third-party education providers on the cloud, and seeking market dominance over provision and control of key information infrastructures of education. In showing how Amazon is potentially developing infrastructural dominance in the education sector as part of its transformation into a statelike corporation with significant social, technical, economic, and political power to govern and control state and public services, this article highlights the broader implications of increasing technological governance in education.
Quantitative analysis of the structural health of railway turnouts using the acoustic emission technique
Authors: Kongpuang M , Culwick R , Cheputeh N , Marsh A , Jantara Junior V L , Vallely P , Kaewunruen S , Papaelias M
Published: July 2022

Rail defects such as fatigue cracks have been one of the leading root causes of a number of derailments in the past. Cracks that initiate and propagate below the surface are difficult to detect using traditional non-destructive testing (NDT) methods. Acoustic emission (AE) is a more
effective method for detecting and monitoring crack growth in rails online. This study investigates the applicability of AE for quantifying damage propagation in austenitic cast manganese steel used in manufacturing railway turnouts. The relationship between AE and crack growth rate in austenitic
cast manganese steel samples that were fatigue tested in a three-point bending configuration was investigated by evaluating the AE activity with respect to direct current potential drop (DCPD) measurements and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) fractographic analysis of the tested samples.
From the results obtained, it was not possible to observe a clear relationship between AE activity and the actual crack growth rate. Based on the SEM fractographic analysis, this is likely due to the plasticity occurring at the tip of the fatigue crack in the tested samples. This is plausible
since the cast manganese steel samples had been cut off from a plate that had not been previously work hardened. The effect of carbides present in the microstructure is an additional contributing factor. Further tests should be carried out on cast manganese steel samples that have been work
hardened prior to fatigue testing.
Detecting corrugation defects in harbour railway networks using axle-box acceleration data
Authors: Heusel J , Baasch B , Riedler W , Roth M , Shankar S , Groos J C
Published: July 2022

Sea- and inner ports are intermodal traffic nodes that play an important role in transportation, especially in the transportation of goods. The appearance of track defects in a harbour railway network has a negative impact on safety, cost and comfort (for example due to noise emission).
The analysis of data obtained by embedded acceleration sensors, which are installed at the axle box of an equipped in-service vehicle, allows for continuous condition monitoring of the track infrastructure. The German Aerospace Center (DLR) develops prototypical modular multi-sensor systems
that are used in different operational environments, including on a shunter locomotive operating in an industrial harbour railway network in Braunschweig, Germany. Within the HavenZuG research project, extensive rail longitudinal profile and track geometry measurements have been performed
using established inspection methods to obtain the true underlying condition of the railway network. In the present paper, methods for gaining relevant information from the axle-box acceleration (ABA) data are presented and validated with the given reference data. The focus is on detecting
defects that are visible in the rail longitudinal profile, mainly rail corrugation. It can be shown that ABA data gathered during everyday shunting operation can be used for detecting corrugation and for inferring rail longitudinal profile parameters.
Sperm and Eggs in Consideration of Money: A Pound of Flesh for Three Thousand Ducats?
Authors: Allen Adeline A.
Published: July 2022

Donor conception is a practice in which a donor sperm or egg (or both) is used to conceive a child. Usually, the donor sperm or egg is procured in a financial transaction: gametes exchanging hands for money. The “donor” in donor conception is a bit of an oxymoron, for a donation it is not when money—and sometimes big money—is a feature of the practice, not a bug. This Article will show that donor conception is not proper to who human beings are given their nature as embodied beings, with particular attention to the children of donor conception and to the donors. The bargained-for exchange of sperm and eggs for money also does not satisfy the requirement of commutative justice, historically understood to be of paramount importance in the doctrine of consideration in contract law. Further, the aspects of both the embodied nature of the person and the impropriety of trading on the body present in donor conception are considered in light of William Shakespeare’s play The Merchant of Venice. This Article concludes that donor conception, being unjust and not oriented to human flourishing, ought not to be done. A re-orientation of the law toward aproper respect for each person’s embodied nature and toward fostering a posture of gratitude in receiving each child as a gift would be welcome.

The study was done with the aim to determine the relationship between the severity of asthma in patient and the level of serum immunoglobulin E, peripheral eosinophil count and nature of sputum.

Current research was conducted at the Department of Respiratory Medicine, GAIMS, Bhuj, India over one year. All subjects of Bronchial asthma distinct by Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) guidelines of age 17-61 year were registered. Severity of asthma was assessed by clinical features and by Forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1 in spirometry. Following evaluating the sternness of bronchial asthma all subjects undergo sputum examination for sputum eosinophil counts, blood sampling for absolute eosinophil counts and serum IgE levels.

Elevated sputum eosinophil count (>3) was significantly elevated in additional subjects with severe persistent asthma even though extra than half of them had normal sputum eosinophil. An important association amid peripheral eosinophil count, sputum eosinophil count, and serum IgE with severe persistent asthma. Mean sputum eosinophil% augments considerably according to severity, demonstrates though affirmative association which was statistically important.

The use of inexpensive and easy method with evaluation of AEC, sputum eosinophil count and evaluation of serum IgE level showed a straight measurement of inflammation of airway and allergic etiology of illness.

Then, we review how policymakers can help develop listening skills. Lastly, we review how policymakers can measure and assess listening skills.
Assessing press releases as a data source for spatial research
Authors: Ozgun Burcu , Broekel Tom
Published: July 2022

Describing the distribution and development of socio-economic activities in space is frequently limited due to data availability, as official statistical data sources are often restricted to specific topics and geographical scales. Consequently, new and alternative data sources are needed as complements. This paper presents, discusses, and empirically explores an example of such an alternative data source that promises to give detailed and novel insights into regions' socio-economic structures: press releases. While press releases have seen some use in the literature, they have hardly seen any applications in regional research. Consequently, it is still largely unknown to what extent their information content gives systematic insights into regional socio-economic patterns. The paper closes this gap by assessing the degree to which the content of press releases corresponds to the socio-economic characteristics of regions, by means of an empirical analysis of German NUTS-3 regions. The results confirm that press release content varies systematically between regions, and regional differences in socioeconomic characteristics, events, and activities seem to be well-presented by press releases. This suggests that press releases offer substantial potential and might be a useful complementary data source in regional studies.
Male factor testing in recurrent pregnancy loss cases: A narrative review
Authors: Pourmasumi Soheila , Sabeti Parvin , Ghasemi Nasrin
Published: July 2022

Recurrent pregnancy loss is a distinct disorder defined as the loss of at least 2 pregnancies before the 20th wk of gestation. With half of the genome of the embryo belonging to the father, the integrity of the sperm genome is crucial for a successful pregnancy. Semen analysis is recommended for men in such cases to evaluate sperm concentration, morphology, vitality and motility. However, other important sperm parameters such as sperm epigenetics, aneuploidy, Y chromosome microdeletion and chromatin integrity also correlate with successful pregnancy and delivery rate. This article examines the use of different sperm tests and their importance in male partners of women suffering from recurrent pregnancy loss.
Key words: DNA fragmentation, Sperm, Y chromosome, Recurrent pregnancy loss.
Sperm Retrieval in Non-azoospermic Patients with Persistent Ejaculation Dysfunction
Authors: Akhavizadegan Hamed , Sadighi Gilani Mohammad Ali , Jannati Naser Amir , Heidari Mahnaz
Published: July 2022

Infertility is a common disease that affects 15 to 20% of couples at some point in their lives. Among infertile couples, male factor accounts for 50% of infertile cases. Assisted reproductive techniques are the gold standard approach in case of failure in medical or surgical treatments. Moreover, the role of the urologist in these approaches is to provide appropriate sperm on the day of oocyte pick-up. However, sperm retrieval procedure is quite different in azoospermic and non-azoospermic men. Although most cases of infertile patients are not azoospermic, their ejaculation disorder prevents obtaining sperm for assisted reproductive techniques. This review article explains common problems of sperm retrieval in non-azoospermic patients with persistent ejaculatory dysfunction and introduces some management strategies. In fact, it is possible to design a classic approach for managing such patients, which definitely reduces the problems faced by clinicians as well.
The Association of Mitochondrial Translocator Protein and Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel-1 in Granulosa Cells with Estradiol Levels and Presence of Immature Follicles in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Authors: Mazloomi Sahar , Sanoeei Farimani Marzieh , Tayebinia Heidar , Karimi Jamshid , Amiri Iraj , Abbasi Ebrahim , Khodadadi Iraj
Published: July 2022

Background: Granulosa cells (GCs) play key roles in oocyte maturation by providing required estradiol (E2). Since the presence of immature oocytes has been reported in cases with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), in this study, the levels of mitochondrial membrane transporter proteins involved in E2 synthesis were determined. E2 concentration and parameters of oxidative status were also measured in follicular fluids of PCOS women. 
Methods: Forty-three women with PCOS and 43 healthy women who were candidates for IVF procedure due to their husbands' infertility were enrolled in this case-control study. The gene expression and protein levels of mitochondrial translocator protein (TSPO) and voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) were determined in GCs using RT-qPCR and immunocytochemistry assay, respectively. E2 level was measured with electrochemiluminescence, whereas total cholesterol, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), total oxidant status (TOS), and malondialdehyde (MDA) were determined using colorimetric methods in follicular fluids. Data were analyzed using unpaired t-test or Mann-Whitney U test, and Spearman’s correlation coefficient.  
Results: VDAC1 and TSPO were significantly lower in mRNA (p<0.05) and protein levels (p<0.001) of PCOS patients. PCOS patients had lower cholesterol, estradiol, and TAC levels, and higher TOS and MDA contents. E2 level had direct correlation with VDAC1, TSPO, and TAC while it was negatively correlated with TOS, oxidative stress index (OSI), and MDA (p<0.001). Higher E2 levels were associated with higher numbers of high-quality oocytes and conceived embryos (p<0.001).
Conclusion: Decreased E2 levels and increased oxidative stress in the follicular fluid may be the cause of immature oocytes in PCOS cases.

Authors: Janati Sima , Behmanesh Mohammad Amin , Najafzadehvarzi Hosein , Nezami Boshra , Poormoosavi Seyedeh Mahsa
Published: July 2022

Background: The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the possible effect of follicular fluid paraoxonase 3 (PON  3) on oocyte quality and sex hormones.
Methods: This descriptive-analytical study was performed on totally 90 enrolled women including fifty infertile women presenting with polycystic ovaries and unilateral tubal factor and forty fertile women with male factor infertility referring to Umm-al-Banin Infertility Clinic in Dezful, Iran for in vitro fertilization during October 2018 to November 2019. Oocyte removal was carried out under transvaginal ultrasound guidance, and follicular fluid (FF) was removed and preserved to detect PON3, estrogen, and progesterone levels. In addition, oocyte number and quality were assessed and its association with PON3 activity in the FF was evaluated. One-way ANOVA and Fisher's least significant difference (LSD) were used for data analysis and p≤0.05 were considered statistically significant.
Results: A significant increase was observed in the total number of the oocytes and mature metaphase II oocytes with ≥20 pg/ml of PON3 concentration in the FF (p≤0.05). Moreover, a positive relationship was shown between the increased estradiol level in follicular fluid and PON3, so that the highest estradiol level was observed in the amount of 31-40 pg/ml of PON3 (p≤0.05).
Conclusion: According to the results, as the number of the mature oocytes increased, the amount of PON3 as well as estradiol levels in the FF increased. This research displays an increase in the level of PON3 with mature oocytes, thus supporting the indirect evidence for the function of PON3 in follicle development.

Can we end hunger and malnutrition and reduce the impact of agriculture on global warming?
Authors: Feyen Jan
Published: July 2022

The effects of global warming are becoming more visible every day. Droughts, floods, and heat waves that used to occur once every 10 years now occur 4-6 times a decade, increasingly threatening planet Earth and the world's food supply. Climate changes and ongoing conflicts are contributing to a worsening global hunger crisis. If current trends continue, it is estimated that by 2030 the number of undernourished people will reach 840 million. Undoubtedly, expanding the agricultural area for greater food production will also increase carbon emissions, so it would be more beneficial to increase the production of the existing cultivated area. Also, switching to a more plant-based diet will help combat climate change. Responsibility for the global reduction in meat consumption falls overwhelmingly on the shoulders of the world's richest countries. If 10% of people around the world switched from meat to a plant-based diet, or if we all ate 10% less meat, 38 million hectares could be forested. With this in mind, why not adopt the diet recommended by the World Health Organization throughout the world? If we make this change, it will be possible to feed the world population in 2055, 10 billion people, with dignity, without the need to expand the current area occupied by agriculture.

Published: July 2022

El objetivo del estudio fue identificar la percepción de una población de adultos mayores con respecto a la sexualidad, abarcando prejuicios, mitos, limitaciones y actitudes. La metodología fue cuantitativa y el alcance fue exploratorio y transversal. Se observó a una población constituida por 53 personas adultas mayores que fueron parte del programa académico “Universidad del Adulto Mayor” en la ciudad de Cuenca, provincia del Azuay, al año 2018. Se recopilaron datos a través de la técnica de la encuesta, en la cual se empleó un instrumento previamente validado: el cuestionario “Actitudes hacia la sexualidad en la vejez” de Orozco y Rodríguez (2006). Se evidenció que la mayoría de los adultos mayores encuestados manifestaron una actitud positiva hacia la sexualidad, en tanto las puntuaciones obtenidas en las variables “mitos”, “prejuicios” y “limitaciones” se encuentran por debajo de la media, en la mayoría de casos. Los resultados de esta investigación aportan información actualizada sobre la vivencia de la sexualidad en personas adultas mayores; esta permite fundamentar estudios posteriores en poblaciones similares.
Educación Sexual Integral en institutos de formación docente en Argentina
Authors: Acosta-Buralli Karen
Published: July 2022

El objetivo del presente artículo fue indagar el conocimiento sobre Educación Sexual Integral (ESI) recibido en los institutos de formación docente de Educación Física en Argentina desde la perspectiva de estudiantes y recientemente recibidos. El propósito fue sumar evidencia sobre la formación docente en Educación Sexual Integral para, a posteriori, impulsar la implementación de la misma en las escuelas. Con este objetivo se realizó un estudio cuantitativo de tipo descriptivo y de corte transversal durante el mes de enero de 2021. En el mismo participaron 146 estudiantes avanzados y graduados recientes de la Licenciatura o el Profesorado de Educación física de Argentina. Los participantes respondieron un cuestionario que indagaba la formación en Educación Sexual Integral recibida. Las respuestas fueron organizadas llevando a cabo un análisis estadístico univariado. Los resultados demostraron que la mayoría de los participantes consideraron saber lo suficiente sobre ESI y haber recibido información sobre la misma, aunque calificaron que la información fue poca. A su vez, la mayor parte de los encuestados expresaron sentirse suficientemente preparados para enseñar contenidos de ESI a sus alumnos presentes o futuros. Sin embargo, continúa habiendo un porcentaje de docentes que consideran no saber nada sobre ESI, no haber recibido información sobre la misma y no sentirse preparados para impartirla. Finalmente, casi el total de los participantes consideran importante enseñar ESI. Lo que demuestra que, a pesar de sus avances, todavía queda mucho por trabajar en los institutos de formación docente para la eficaz implementación de la ESI.

The supertextual unity of the Christmas, Italian and love pretexts in the poem «I was only what» by J. Brodsky
Authors:   Far Eastern Federal University, Vladivostok, Buraya Mariya A. , Bogdanova Olga V. ,   Herzen state pedagogical university
Published: July 2022

The study was supported by a grant of the Russian Science Foundation No. 22-28-01671, https://rscf.ru/project/22-28-01671 /; Russian Christian Academy for the Humanities. The work is devoted to the study of Joseph Brodsky's poem «I was only what» (1981), part of the poetry collection «New stanzas to Augusta», compiled directly by the author himself in 1983. The article puts forward a hypothesis about the functioning of J. Brodsky's special unconventional supertext unity with a lyrical meta-plot of initiation and cognition through love, the creative work of a lyrical hero in love. In the course of the analysis the authors consider the main content and poetic features of Brodsky's chosen text as a potential semantic center of the selected supertextual unity, actualize the connections of the poetic markers highlighted at different levels of the text, establish correlations with other lyrical works of the poet that are part of a potential supertextual unity. It has been shown that in addressing his leading theme of human realization and the formation of the individual's creative potentials, Brodsky steadily synthesizes the three leading «private» texts of his own extensive metatext: Christmas, topos (in this case Italian), and love texts. The poem «I was only what» is considered as the semantic center of the designated supertext unity, embodying in a concentrated form all the main signs of the unity and integrity of the cycle. lyrical plot and the system of characters, imagery, motif and thematic structure, chronotopic originality, intertextual levels and allusive layers. The analysis demonstrates that the perspective of singling out and modeling the supertextual unity is extremely fruitful, allowing us to reconstruct the logic of the writer's artistic mindset and recreate the image of his mythopoetic world picture. Thus, in Brodsky’s poem «I was only what» the interference of the pretextual layers, «large» and «small», saturates the connotative components of the subtext and focuses the central motive line of the plot – the creation, that gives the lyrical hero the ability to gain sight, hearing, voice, that is, to speak, and potentially to create, in particular, to be a poet.

The article presents the study of the Spanish advertising text rhythmic specificity, based on the work of the computer application PRD (ProseRhythmDetector). The application was created and tested by the professors of YSPU named after K.D. Ushinsky and Yaroslavl Demidov State University. It searches for and analyzes 12 rhythmic means, including alliteration and assonance on the phonostylistic level, anaphora, epiphora, symploce, diacope, epanalepsis, anadiplosis, epizeuxis, repetition of interrogative and exclamatory sentences, and aposiopesis. For the analysis we selected texts from Spanish online advertising (40 texts with a total of 17,000 characters without spaces), obtained by continuous sampling method from the websites of sales companies. The main purpose of the study is to determine the frequency and specificity of using rhythmic means in the Spanish advertising text. The main research methods are the quantitative method, the method of analysis and synthesis, the comparative method (to compare the frequency and specifics of using rhythmic means). The main result of the study is the conclusion that the most active rhythmic means of Spanish advertising are the diacope and the anaphora. It should be noted that the volume of the advertising text practically does not provide for a variety of repetitions, which explains their rather rare use in the advertising text, however, it should also be noted that the most active tool is diaсope, since its elements are in free order when repeated, which partly explains its high frequency. Other means prove to be less active.

AbstractThe current research aims to investigate the realization of human rights in the natural resources business sector in Indonesia. Global demands and the rise of investments have resulted in the exercise of the natural resources business, which frequently intersects and affects the fulfillment of human rights in some cases. A normative legal research method was used by means of statutory, conceptual, and case study approaches. The results had shown that the real-life practices of human rights fulfilment in the natural resources sector did not run optimally, and even violated the principles of Business and Human (UNGP), in terms of protection, respect, and restoration of human rights. In fact, natural resources management policies, the most widely issued policies in Indonesia, had been the real challenges by themselves. The regulatory framework in the natural resources sector, tendentiously centralized, pragmatic, and instrumental, did need reform. This issue implied the rise of pathological problems, such as pollution and environmental damages, violence against vulnerable groups, marginalization of indigenous peoples due to land and ownership conflicts, and social inequality. In addition, adequate norms of action were needed in terms of due diligence and restoration of human rights in the natural resources business sector.Keywords: Human Right; Natural Resources Business; Realities; Challenges.
AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui realisasi HAM pada bisnis sektor sumber daya alam di Indonesia. Tuntutan global dan peningkatan investasi mengakibatkan pelaksanaan bisnis di sektor sumber daya alam sering bersingungan dan berdampak pada pemenuhan HAM. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah penelitian hukum normatif dengan jenis pendekatan peraturan perundang-undangan, konseptual, dan studi kasus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa realitas pemenuhan HAM di sektor sumber daya alam tidak berjalan secara optimal dan bahkan melanggar prinsip-prinsip Bisnis dan HAM dalam Panduan Persatuan Bangsa-Bangsa mengenai Bisnis dan HAM (United Nation Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights/UNGP), baik prinsip perlindungan, penghormatan, dan pemulihan HAM. Kebijakan pengelolaan sumber daya alam merupakan kebijakan yang paling banyak diterbitkan di Indonesia menjadi tantangan tersendiri. Kerangka regulasi di sektor sumber daya alam yang cenderung sentralis, pragmatis, dan instrumentalis perlu dilakukan reformasi. Implikasi yang ditimbulkan akibat hal itu adalah terjadi berbagai patologi permasalahan seperti pencemaran dan kerusakan lingkungan, kekerasan terhadap kelompok rentan, marginalisasi, dan masyarakat hukum adat akibat konflik lahan dan kepemilikan, kesenjangan sosial, dan lain sebagainya. Selain itu, dibutuhkan norma aksi yang memadai dalam hal uji tuntas dan pemulihan HAM pada bisnis sektor sumber daya alam.Kata Kunci: HAM; Bisnis Sektor Sumber Daya Alam; Pemenuhan dan Tantangan

Objective: The present study attempted to reveal the sociodemographic information, characteristics of violence exposed, and risk situations among women exposed to violence through the data obtained from the victim registration forms and generate a source for further research to prevent violence against women.Methods: In this descriptive study, the victim registration forms (1222 cases) of women applying to emergency departments in Burdur city due to domestic violence is utilized. Then, the data analyzed by using IBM SPSS version 20.0 and presented the descriptive data as numbers, percentages, means, standard deviations, and minimum and maximum values.Results: It was found that almost all cases (93.6%) were exposed to physical violence alone or combined with other forms of violence. The women were exposed to violence at home where they should live safely (88.1%) and from the ones they trust (97.2%; spouse/lover/ family member). About half of the women (51.6%) were exposed to violence in front of their children, and 18.0% of the children got their shares from the violence. It was also discovered that 9.7% of the women had been exposed to violence for more than ten years. Finally, it was concluded that 64.5% of the women had a high risk of being exposed to violence again soon.Conclusion: Regardless of their educational attainment and socioeconomic status, women are often exposed to violence from childhood to advanced ages. Overall, further awareness-raising activities are needed to prevent all segments of society from all kinds of violence.

Objective: to determine the high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) signs and their combinations, suggesting the presence of fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (FHP).   Material and methods. The study included 52 patients with pathologically verified diagnosis of FHP who were examined according to the 2021 consensus criteria. All patients had lung HRCT no more than 4 months prior to lung biopsy. The analysis of the changes revealed during HRCT was carried out by qualitative and semi-quantitative methods. The presence of individual signs, the degree of their severity (as percentage relative to the volume of the entire lung tissue) and the features of distribution in the axial and longitudinal planes were taken into account. To search for significant combinations of HRCT signs, a correlation analysis was carried out.   Results. The most common HRCT signs in the examined group of FHP patients were reticular changes (96 %) and ground glass opacity (88 %). Most of the patients had signs that did not correspond to the picture of “typical FHP”, such as ground glass and emphysema. Relatively rare cases were centrilobular lesions (46.2 %) and mosaic attenuation (52 %), which are traditionally part of the “typical FHP” picture. In 22 cases (42.3 %) there were signs of emphysema, the presence of which significantly complicated the interpretation of HRCT data even in the cases of characteristic signs of FHP. Correlations of almost all HRCT signs were weak. The most common combinations of features were ground glass + reticular changes, emphysema + honeycombing, reticular changes + bronchiectasis. The combination of ground glass and reticular changes had a moderate correlation, but it has low specificity.   Conclusion. The HRCT picture of changes in the lungs among patients with a morphologically verified diagnosis of FHP has important features. A weak correlation between the signs does not allow to identify their combinations that can help in the early diagnosis of FHP with sufficient reliability.
