Authors: Baudino Verónica
Published: September 2023

El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar cómo se expresaron políticamente los capitalistas industriales miembros de la Unión Industrial Argentina durante la última dictadura militar. Nos interesa indagar su posición frente a las principales medidas adoptadas durante la gestión de José Martínez de Hoz al mando del Ministerio de Economía. Especialmente, nos interesan aquellas que nos den pistas sobre la evaluación de los capitalistas en relación con el rol del Estado en la economía.

Nuestra metodología consiste en el análisis cualitativo y cuantitativo de documentos de la época (periódicos, fuentes institucionales, revistas especializadas). Partimos del estudio de las singularidades de la acumulación de capital y del Estado durante el período seleccionado. Analizamos las características de los capitalistas objeto de este trabajo, así como del espacio de acumulación en el que se desenvuelven, con el fin de dar cuenta de las principales determinaciones de la acción política de los sujetos en cuestión.
A RARE CAUSE OF RADICULOPATHY: FEMORAL HEAD AVASCULAR NECROSIS
Authors: Aksan Ozgur , Secer Mehmer
Published: September 2023

Insufficient blood flow to the proximal femur causes osteonecrosis of the femoral head, which is known as femoral head avascular necrosis (AVN). The underlying pathogenesis is unclear, risk factors are likely to influence microcirculation somewhat, but this has not been confirmed by research. In more than 75% of cases, avascular necrosis affects the femoral head. Methods: From August 2019 to March 2022, 4 patients with FBAN were analyzed retrospectively. The findings seen in the hip MRI radiographs of the patients were reported radiologically as FBAN. It was staged with the Ficat and Arlet classifications. Visual analog scale (VAS) was used in the current clinics of the patients. Results: Patients with severe back, hip, and leg pain whose clinic and radiology do not match with lumbar pathology should plan a hip MRI. Because of this, it may be misleading for people with severe radiculopathy, and this radiculopathy may not even be real. The pain is really coming from the hip, but it is often felt in the lumbosacral region and the buttocks. This makes it easy to make the wrong diagnosis.

Ternary manganese-doped (1−x−y)Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-xPb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-yPbTiO3 (Mn-doped PIN-PMN-PT) single crystals have demonstrated remarkable pyroelectric properties alongside enhanced temperature stability. These attributes hold substantial promise for the advancement of high precision nondispersive IR (NDIR) applications. In this study, Mn-doped 0.21Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-0.49Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.30PbTiO3 single crystals were introduced and carefully investigated. A compensated structure of pyroelectric IR detector based on Mn-doped PIN-PMN-PT single crystal was designed and fabricated, and a CO2 gas concentration monitoring module was built. Results showed that Mn-doped PIN-PMN-PT single crystals exhibit high pyroelectric coefficient, and better thermal stability than binary (1−x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3 system. The compensated pyroelectric IR detectors using Mn-doped PIN-PMN-PT single crystals as element chips showcase a performance that is approximately fourfold higher than that of commercial LiTaO3 pyroelectric detectors. The NDIR CO2 gas sensor module was assembled and exhibited remarkable accuracy along with an impressively low minimum detection concentration. These outcomes underscores its substantial potential for practical utilization in gas monitoring applications.

Authors: Hernawan Hernawan , Widigdo Mohammad Syifa Amin
Published: September 2023

Dispensasi kawin pada dasarnya merupakan penyimpangan dari batas usia minimum untuk menikah, yaitu 19 tahun baik bagi laki-laki maupun perempuan. Paradigma penanganan perkara permohonan dispensasi kawin di Pengadilan Agama berubah dengan keluarnya Undang-Undang Nomor 16 Tahun 2019 dan PERMA Nomor 5 Tahun 2019. Peraturan tersebut mengutamakan asas kepentingan terbaik bagi anak dalam rangka melindungi hak-hak anak. dengan membatasi alasan-alasan untuk mengajukan dispensasi perkawinan. Undang-Undang Nomor 16 Tahun 2019 mengatur tentang pengajuan dispensasi nikah karena alasan yang mendesak disertai dengan bukti yang cukup. Namun fenomena pernikahan dini masih menunjukkan angka yang tinggi. Untuk itu diperlukan peran aktif hakim dalam mengadili perkara ini, termasuk mengutamakan kepentingan terbaik bagi anak. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif yaitu penelitian hukum normatif-empiris. Sumber data dalam penelitian ini adalah bahan hukum primer yang meliputi peraturan perundang-undangan dan putusan pengadilan agama, sedangkan bahan hukum sekunder adalah jurnal dan artikel. Makalah ini menggunakan pendekatan studi kasus, data dianalisis dengan analisis deskriptif. Temuan dalam penelitian ini adalah bahwa tidak semua pertimbangan hakim dalam memutus perkara dispensasi perkawinan di Pengadilan Agama Wonosari secara jelas mencerminkan prinsip kepentingan anak dalam memutus perkara permohonan dispensasi perkawinan. Hal ini terlihat dari (1) dispensasi kawin yang diberikan masih tinggi yaitu 90% (2) Penafsiran hakim dengan alasan mendesak masih bersifat antisipatif dan (3) Pendampingan psikologis terhadap anak yang diberikan dispensasi nikah tidak semuanya diperintahkan oleh hakim dalam putusan pengadilan.
Konsep Pertanggungjawaban Pelaku Pidana Korporasi Menurut Vicarious Liability Theory
Authors: Sari Nur Khalifah Agustin , Saly Jeane Neltje
Published: September 2023

Perkembangan korporasi makin hari memposisikan sebagai sebuah entitas yang semakin kuat dan berkuasa karena memiliki kelebihan dibandingkan entitas berupa manusia alamiah. Kelebihan itu dapat diwujudkan melalui gabungan sekumpulan manusia dan kekayaan sehingga dapat menciptakan dampak sosial di sekitarnya. Korporasi yang telah dijatuhkan pidana berupa denda memunculkan ketidakadilan, karena korporasi terdiri dari kumpulan orang dari berbagai tugas dan fungsinya masing-masing, sehingga hanya beberapa orang saja yang memiliki kewenangan dan menentukan arah kebijakan korporasi tersebut, oleh karenanya adanya putusan berupa denda itu menjadikan semua sektor pada korporasi tersebut harus ikut menanggung beban denda. Hal ini memberikan gambaran bahwa pengurus korporasi sebagai pihak yang bertanggung jawab atas tindak pidana korporasi. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode yuridis normatif dengan mengurai doktrin vicarious liability. Hasil penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa untuk mencari siapa yang paling bertanggung jawab atas perbuatan pidana dari korporasi melalui pendekatan Vicarious Liability Theory adalah pengurus, dimana langkah gerak korporasi merupakan kewenangan dan kehendak dari pengurus sehingga pengurus korporasi menjadi pihak yang paling bertanggungjawab atas korporasi yang melakukan perbuatan pidana.
Upaya Optimalisasi Restorative Justice di Indonesia
Authors: Firmansyah Dimas Verdy
Published: September 2023

Dinamika penegakan hukum di Indonesia telah mengambil suatu konsep baru yang disebut sebagai restorative justice. Restorative justice ini dapat dipahami sebagai upaya penyelesaian tindak pidana secara alternatif yang tidak melibatkan aspek penal atau penghukuman. Mekanisme ini diterapkan kepada pelaku tindak pidana yang baru melakukan tindak pidana pertama kali karena “terpaksa” oleh keadaan yang dihadapinya. Maka, restorative justice ini tidak berlaku terhadap tindak pidana lain yang berpotensi merugikan warga masyarakat dan negara. Hal ini telah diuraikan dalam dua peraturan yang sampai saat ini digunakan sebagai landasan hukum dalam implementasi restorative justice yaitu: (1) Peraturan Kepolisian Negara Republik Indonesia Nomor 8 Tahun 2021 tentang Penanganan Tindak Pidana Berdasarkan Keadilan Restoratif; dan (2) Peraturan Kejaksaan Nomor 15 Tahun 2020 tentang Penghentian Penuntutan Berdasarkan Keadilan Restoratif. Implementasi restorative justice ini diyakini dapat menurunkan laju kriminalitas di masyarakat seiring pelaku mendapatkan kesempatan kedua setelah menyadari kesalahan yang dilakukan dan melakukan ganti rugi terhadap korban dalam proses mediasi yang dilakukan. Namun, implementasi restorative justice ini masih memerlukan pendekatan dan optimalisasi agar mekanisme penyelesaian tindak pidana secara alternatif dapat memberikan hasil yang efektif dan efisien. Maka, dalam artikel ini pendekatan dan optimalisasi mekanisme restorative justice akan dibahas.

COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF INTRAOCULAR PRESSURE MEASUREMENT WITH INDENTATION (SCHIOTZ) AND NON-CONTACT TONOMETRY: AN OBSERVATIONAL STUDY
Authors: Bhuyan Pranjal , Das Babi , Saikia Santana
Published: September 2023

Introduction: Estimation of Intra Ocular Pressure (IOP) is an essential part of comprehensive ocular examination and
should be measured in every patient, specially over 40 years of age. IOP being the only modiable risk-factor of
glaucoma, its use in screening is of immense importance. In our study we have compared indentation tonometry (Schiotz) with Non-Contact
Tonometry (NCT) to nd an agreement in measurement of IOP by both the instruments. T AIM: o compere IOP measured with NCT and Schiotz
tonometry. Our study is a cross-sectional observational study including 50 individual Materials and Methods: (100 eyes) including both male
and female patients in the age group of 21 – 50 years. In all patients NCT was done rst followed by Schiotz tonometer. Bland–Altman method is
used to nd out any agreement between the IOP measured by both the methods. Afte Results: r analysing the IOP measured for 100 eyes, we found
that IOP measured with NCT is slightly Higher than Schiotz tonometry. However, this difference is statistically insignicant. Our Conclusion:
study's ndings lead to the conclusion that when screening a signicant number of patients in an OPD setup or in a screening camp within a
relatively short time frame, IOP measurement using the Non-Contact Tonometer (NCT) is a viable alternative to the Schiotz tonometer.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is normally performed under general anaesthesia, but regional techniques like segmental
spinal have been emerging and found benecial. Nowadays laparoscopic surgeries are commonly performed on a day
care basis. Although of less intensity, laparoscopic surgeries do have some amount of pain. This post-operative pain, to some extent, limits early
post operative recovery and extends hospital stay. Segmental spinal provides excellent post operative analgesia. Total Materials and methods:
40 patients aged between 18 and 65 years of either sex, with American Society of Anaesthesiologist status(ASA) I/II and body mass index >18.5
to <25, scheduled to undergo elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy were enrolled for the study. Patients were randomized into two groups with
20 patients in each group using coded sealed envelopes. Segmental spinal anaesthesia was given at T9-10 space using 27 gauge spinal needle,
Group L received 1.5ml Levobupivcaine(0.5%)+Inj Fentanyl (25mcg) while Group R received 1.5ml Ropivacaine (0.5%)+ inj Fentanyl(25mcg)

Harlequin ichthyosis (HI) is a rare type of congenital ichthyosis.It is
associated with poor survival. Although previously thought to be
lethal, there are reports of prolonged survival, following improved
1
supportive care and judicious use of systemic retinoids. Harlequin
ichthyosis is caused by mutations in the ABCA12 gene. Mutation in
the gene leads to defective lipid transport and ABCA12 activity is
required for the generation of long-chain ceramides that are essential

for the development of the normal skin barrier .

Application of a wound healing inhibitor is a new treatment modality in endoscopic lacrimal surgery, intraoperative use
of Mitomycin C in endonasal DCR is safe and effective in increasing the success rate as a useful adjunct in DCR surgery.
The prospective observational study was carried out in patients, who were admitted in the department of ENT at RNT medical college Udaipur, a
tertiary care teaching hospital of Rajasthan during timeline January 2014 to December 2014 (approximately for one year). In the study, sixty
patients were suffering from chronic dacryocystitis included and all of them were subjected to Endonasal Endoscopic Dacryocystorhinostomy.
All patients were divided into two groups, the control and mitomycin C group, each comprising of 30 cases. The Mitomycin C drug was applied
topically intraoperatively after completion of surgery to one group and control group was withheld. The results of both groups were evaluated
during follow up, scheduled at one week, one month,3 months and 6 months after day of surgery. The operation was considered as successful if
patients had no symptoms and patent nasolacrimal drainage system conrmed by endoscopy and irrigation at completion of follow up period. In
all 22 primary DCR surgeries were done in Control group out of which 20 were successful and 2 failed, whereas in Mitomycin C group 23
primary DCR surgeries were done in which 22 were successful and 1 failed. There were 15 cases of revision DCR surgeries were done in our
institute in which 8 surgeries were done in control group, out of these 8 cases, 3(37.5%) cases were successful and 5 (62.5%) cases failed; and 7
revision surgeries were performed in Mitomycin C group, out of which 6(85.7%) cases were successful and 1(14.3%) case was failed. The use of
Mitomycin C in revision cases signicantly improved the success rate although no much difference is seen in primary cases.
EMERGENCE OF ANTI-DEFECTION LAW IN INDIA

Political defections became the most conspicuous phenomenon of the
politics of Indian States after the fourth General Elections. It does not
mean that defections did not exist before, but the cases were very few,
and whenever there was any, did not attract much public attention and
did not affect the fortune of the ruling party or of the defector in any big
way. The evidence of this assertion was that prior to that Election no
scholar, either in India or abroad, writing on Indian government and
politics, had said a word on this; in fact, the term did not nd any place
anywhere in their publications. After that Election, the subject of
political defections became so important that it was talked about inside
State Legislatures, inside Parliament, in public forums, party
platforms, and academic institutions, and even in common parlance.

Morocco is ranked, according to World Health Organisation (WHO)
data, among the intermediate prevalence countries for viral hepatitis B
(prevalence between 2 and 7%) and C (prevalence between 1 and
2.5%) [1, 2]. This classication is based on old epidemiological data.
Several recent studies have reported lower prevalence rates of hepatitis
B and C in the general Moroccan population. In this sense, and in order
to better understand the evolution of the prevalence of hepatitis B and
C in Morocco, we carried out a retrospective analysis of data from the
Virology laboratory of Mohammed V Military Teaching Hospital
(Rabat, Morocco) over a period 6 years (2017-2022). HBs antigen
(HBsAg) and hepatitis C antibody (HCVAb) were detected by
Chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay on the Architect
i2000SR analyzer according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
The results are expressed in S/CO ratio. HBsAg-positive samples with
an S/CO ratio superior to 1 were conrmed by the neutralization
reaction. Demographic data was extracted from the laboratory
information management system (LIMS). Duplicate results or results
from non-Moroccan patients were excluded. All these analyses were
done for hepatitis diagnosis, and therefore we did not seek ethical
approval to use these samples for research purposes and was not
required for this study in accordance with national guidelines.
FULL-MOUTH REHABILITATION OF A PATIENT WITH SEVERE ATTRITION USING THE HOBO TWIN-STAGE PROCEDURE – A CASE REPORT
Authors: Nijhawan Ojasvi , Kundra Shrey , Sindwani Suruchi
Published: September 2023

The gradual wear of the occlusal surfaces of teeth is a customary process during the lifetime of a patient.
However, excessive occlusal wear can result in pulpal injury, occlusal disharmony, impaired function and aesthetic
deformity. In many cases, the Vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) is maintained by tooth eruption and alveolar bone growth. Loss of
anterior guidance can result from severe wear of anterior teeth, which protects the posterior teeth during excursive movement. The
collapse of posterior teeth also results in the loss of normal occlusal plane and the reduction of the vertical dimension. Increasing the
VDO in bruxers puts a severe overload on the teeth and often results in the destruction of the restorations or of the teeth themselves.
This clinical report highlights the use of the Hobo twin-stage procedure for rehabilitation of a patient with severe tooth wear, resulting
in reduced VDO.

Background: Posterior cervical spine xation for subaxial spine is one of stabilising procedure for various cervical spine
pathologies. Modern fusion techniques like lateral mass screws(LMS), transfacetal screws(TFS), pedicle and
interlaminar screw proved to be safe, inexpensive, better biomechanical stability and neurological outcome. Transfacetal screw is an evolving
technique due to its safety, ease of doing, less expensive with a better or equivalent biomechanical stability. Aim: Outcome of transfacetal screw
and decompressive laminectomy in cervical spondylotic myelopathy by comparing with lateral mass screw. This study was Methodology:
conducted with 20 patients, operated for cervical spondylotic myelopathy. They were grouped in to group 1 and group II. Group I (10 patients)
operated with transfacetal screw and decompression and group II(10 patients)operated with lateral mass screw xation. The neurological
outcomes were analyzed with NURICK and mJOA. Other parameters like duration of surgery, blood loss, no: of uoroscopic shots, post op pain
and length of hospital stay were also compared. Group I, neurological improvement is Results: 90 % and in group II, it is 80%. On follow up after
3 months, both group showed a recovery rate to 90 %. Patients improving to ≤ grade 3 and mild disability in group I is 70% and other side it is
60%. When comparing other parameters, group I showed a better results when compared to group II. Conclusion: Transfacetal xation is
simple, safer, inexpensive technique. It is better than lateral mass xation in reducing the duration of surgery, blood loss, pain, exposure to
radiation with early discharge. Transfacetal xation is a 4 cortical purchase screw, hence chances of screw pull out strength is more
