The Civil Redress and Historical Memory Act of 2029: A Legislative Proposal
Authors: Aceves William
Published: March 2022

During the extant “War on Terror,” U.S. and foreign nationals who did not engage in hostilities were detained and mistreated abroad by the United States or by other countries with the acquiescence of the United States. These individuals were accused of being terrorists or were suspected of associating with terror groups, but they were, in fact, innocent. They were eventually released and were never charged by the United States with any crime. Despite their innocence, the United States has failed to provide them with any form of redress for their mistreatment. The Bush, Obama, and Trump administrations refused to apologize or provide any reparations to these individuals. The federal courts have consistently dismissed their efforts to seek redress through legal process. And, to date, Congress has remained silent.

To remedy these acts of injustice, this Article offers a legislative proposal based on the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, which Congress adopted to address the discrimination and detention of Japanese Americans during the Second World War. Based on this historical analog, this Article proposes the adoption of the Civil Redress and Historical Memory Act of 2029, which would establish a commission of inquiry to investigate these cases of arbitrary detention and mistreatment perpetrated by the United States during the War on Terror. The Act would offer an apology and provide restitution to individuals who were wrongfully detained and mistreated by the United States or by other countries with U.S. complicity during the War on Terror. The Act would also establish a public education program that would publicize the commission’s findings and promote awareness of human rights in the United States and abroad.
Criminal Certification: Restoring Comity in the Categorical Approach
Authors: Rothenberg Joshua
Published: March 2022

Federal sentencing enhancements force federal courts to delve into the world of substantive state criminal law. Does a state assault statute require violent force or just offensive touching? Does a state burglary statute that criminalizes breaking into a car or a house require prosecutors to charge the location entered as an element? Whether a person with prior convictions convicted of violating 18 U.S.C. § 922(g) faces a minimum sentence of fifteen years and a maximum of life imprisonment rather than a maximum sentence of ten years turns upon the answers to these questions. Yet, state law often does not resolve the uncertainties which exist at the edges of their criminal code. When a federal sentence turns upon a state crime, these uncertainties must be resolved by federal judges, leaving federal courts in the position of attempting to prophesize state law. As a result, two problems arise: a federal court may get a particular case wrong, sentencing a defendant to a sentence not properly applicable, and federal courts may split on the meaning of a state law, with no opportunity to get an authoritative ruling unless the precise issue arises in a new state case. There is a better way.

This problem was faced once before, in the civil context. An elegant solution was found: certification. The already constructed certification framework can and should be utilized by federal courts facing unclear, unsettled, or unencountered questions of substantive state criminal law. This would solve the federalism and accuracy problems currently inherent in federal sentencing based upon prior state conviction.

Peran Subsektor Perikanan dalam Pembangunan Wilayah dan Strategi Pengembangannya di Kabupaten Dairi
Authors: Saragih Jef Rudiantho , Lela Janidar , Harmain Ummu
Published: March 2022

Dairi Regency has natural and human resources and supports relatively adequate facilities, but fisheries do not significantly contribute to the regional economy. This study aims to describe the condition of fishing, analyze the role of the fishery subsector, and offer strategies for developing the fishery subsector. The research was conducted in Dairi Regency with 65 fish cultivators samples as the primary data source. Data and information were obtained through FGD from 7 resource persons from specialized agencies, the legislative, and other stakeholders in the fisheries subsector. Secondary data were obtained from several relevant institutions. The current condition of fisheries was analyzed descriptively, the role of the fishery sector was analyzed by Location Quotient, and development strategies were analyzed through SWOT analysis. In the 2010-2017 period, the fishery subsector contributed 2.10% to Dairi Regency's GDP. The most significant fish production is obtained from aquaculture in ponds, Minapadi, and floating nets. Capture fisheries come from lakes and rivers. The fishery subsector is a non-basic activity (LQ=0.97). Aquaculture is a primary activity with LQ=2.19, while capture fisheries are non-basic (LQ=0.49). Fishery development can be planned with a diversification strategy through: increasing utilization of natural and human resources and institutions to improve the efficiency of feed procurement and control of fish diseases; making local policies to improve the competitiveness of fisheries; and diversifying the fishery into Minapadi, ponds, and rivers; and lake capture fisheries. Regional strength can be optimized to respond to opportunities through the strategies: increasing fish production; responding to increased fish consumption as consumer demand; making policies that support institutional capacity building based on entrepreneurial activities, and improving the experience of fish cultivators and facilities and infrastructure.

Published: March 2022

Pirmą kartą Laimo ligos (LL) sukeltas karditas aprašytas 1980 m. Būdingi klinikiniai požymiai apima sinkopes, galvos svaigimą, dusulį, padažnėjusio širdies plakimo jutimus ir (arba) krūtinės skausmus. Įvairaus laipsnio atrioventrikulinė (AV) blokada yra dažniausia (90 proc.) LL sukelto kardito klinikinė išraiška. Nors dažniausiai ji būna lengvos formos, AV blokada gali greitai kisti ir progresuoti nuo prailgėjusio P–R intervalo trukmės iki visiškos blokados per kelias minutes, valandas arba dienas. Retais atvejais gali pasireikšti miokarditu, endokarditu, perikarditu, pankarditu arba dilatacine kardiomiopatija. Auksiniu diagnostikos standartu laikoma serologinė diagnostika nustatant savituosius Borrelia burgdorferi IgM ir IgG antikūnus kraujyje. Adekvati antibiotikoterapija sutrumpina sirgimo trukmę, padeda išvengti ne tik tolesnių LL sukelto kardito komplikacijų, bet ir bereikalingo nuolatinio elektrinio širdies stimuliatoriaus implantavimo jauniems asmenims, kuriems dėl šios ligos pasireiškė širdies laidžiosios sistemos sutrikimų.

Autoimuninio tiroidito klinikinis atvejis
Authors: Jackevičienė Vilma , Serapinas Danielius
Published: March 2022

Autoimuninis tiroiditas (AT) yra dažniausia hipotirozės priežastis jodo nestokojančiose žmonių grupėse. Labiausiai paplitęs tipas yra lėtinis limfocitinis tiroiditas, kitaip žinomas kaip Hašimoto tiroiditas. Šis sutrikimas dažniausiai nustatomas moterims, moterų ir vyrų dažnio santykis yra iki 10:1. Be to, yra stiprus paveldimumo veiksnys, nes tiroiditu sergančiųjų pirmos eilės giminaičiai turi devynis kartus didesnę riziką susirgti šia liga. Hašimoto tiroidito etiologija yra susijusi su prieš skydliaukės antigenus susidariusiais cirkuliuojamaisiais autoantikūnais, dėl kurių atsiranda lėtinis autoimuninis destrukcinis procesas, apimantis imuninių kompleksų ir komplemento susidarymą skydliaukės folikulinių ląstelių membranoje. Tai veda prie limfocitų įsiskverbimo į skydliaukės folikulus ir galiausiai sukelia fibrozę, dėl kurios sumažėja veiksmingas folikulų, reikalingų skydliaukės hormonams gaminti, skaičius.

Mystery Religions and their Influence on the New Testament and Early Christianity
Authors: Fai Ebenezer , Olagunju Olugbenga Samuel
Published: March 2022

This article discusses mystery religions and how they influenced the New Testament and early Christianity. It is library research and is descriptive. Data was gathered from books, journal articles, and internet sources. The research findings reveal that mystery religions influenced the New Testament to the extent that the knowledge derived from it sheds more light on the background of some New Testament texts, such as John 12:24 and Matthew 17:1-13. Also, some practices in the New Testament times, such as baptism, meal fellowship, the veiling of women, and other early Christian practices, were influenced by mystery religions. Both the mystery religions and New Testament contain the same linguistic form. Therefore, this article recommends that mystery religions be studied to gain background knowledge of particular texts in the New Testament. Also, the language in mystery religious texts can be examined since it can aid the understanding of New Testament writings at times.

IMPROVEMENT THE MODELLING OF ATMOSPHERIC EFFECTS FOR ELECTRONIC DISTANCE MEASUREMENT (EDM): ANALYSIS OF AIR TEMPERATURE, ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE AND RELATIVE HUMIDITY OF AIR
Authors: Sabzali Mansoor , Jazirian Iraj
Published: March 2022

The atmosphere is an undeniable source of error for any geodetic instruments. Surveyors require to have an accurate approximation of distance measurements in order to accurately determine the 3D coordinate of points. Electronic Distance Measurements (EDMs) are employed to measure accurate range to the target. They are typically functioning by laser in the domain of light or near infrared of electromagnetic spectrum (EM). Snell’s law has proved propagating wave through passing the different layers of atmosphere is deviated. This phenomenon is called the refractivity of wave. This deviation is introduced by different intersection between the beam and the object surface at different epochs of atmospheric change. By possessing the knowledge of group refractive index, it is possible to estimate the value of correction in ppm for measured distances caused by the variations in atmospheric elements. The changes in three components of air, temperature, pressure and humidity, in this study will be considered.

Authors: Buckley Kathleen , Tran Binh , Prandoni Cheryl
Published: March 2022

This descriptive study identified factors that influenced the receptiveness, use and acceptance of telehealth videophones by 21 family caregivers of stroke patients in the home setting. Potential obstacles to the receptiveness towards videophones included concerns by the caregiver about maintaining home security, limited need for health care support, very low or high degree of burden in caregiving, and discomfort or disinterest in using technology. Identification of possible impediments to the use of videophones is vital prior to developing and evaluating programs using telehealth as a method of rehabilitative technology.

Uma das principais manifestações patológicas em estruturas de concreto armado é a corrosão das armaduras. Neste sentido, este estudo analisou a influência da corrosão causada por ingresso de íons cloreto em vigas reforçadas com CFRP. Para isso, três modelos reduzidos de vigas de concreto armado foram executados e reforçados à flexão e/ou ao cisalhamento com mantas CFRP segundo a técnica EBR, sendo uma das vigas submetida a protocolo acelerado de corrosão com aplicação de densidade de corrente. Os resultados experimentais indicaram incremento de capacidade resistente em 18% e aumento da rigidez entre as vigas mantidas em laboratório devido à aplicação de reforço à flexão e ao cisalhamento. A viga submetida ao protocolo de corrosão teve sua capacidade resistente diminuída em 48,9% quando comparada com a viga mantida em ambiente laboratorial, além de perda de massa da armadura longitudinal de 32,2% e alteração em seu modo de ruptura.

Some other minor symptoms were seen such as weakness or pain of extremities, chest pain, lumbago, dyspnea. 7 cases complained neurological symptoms but 2 cases showed brain atrophy, One was found cerebral lesion on autopsy. 9 cases were normal in sedimentation rate, 14 have increased(60%). Hemoglobin was normal in 17. Serum protein was examined on 10 and increased in 5, and γ-globulin increased in 9. Leucocytosis was in 4, and eosinophilia was existing in all leucocytosis cases but it's not significant in entire series. Chest X-ray showed several characteristical patterns, predominantly whin walled cystic shadow bronchopneumonia type fibrosis patchy form and some other insignificant patterns. In pleural changes, there were 3 of pleuristy, 12 of pleural reaction, 3 of spontaneous hydropneumothorax. Total pleural change makes 18. Sputum test is the most definitive examination for confirming diagnosis. there is no real effective remedy for this though there are some which reduced symptoms. Only way so far, is in prevention of this disease. The way to prevent this disease might be in stopping to eat those raw crabs or cray fish.

Published: March 2022

Para-aminosalicylic acid(PAS ) is frequently used in conjunction with other antituberculous agents in the combined therapy of tuberculosis. Many patients do not tolerate PAS in adequate doses because of side effects or the inconvenience of ingesting may talets of relatively large size throughout the day. Furtermore, it is the general experience among physicians working with tuberculous patients that many who do not take the drug do not inform their physicians of this fact or vigorously deny their lack of adherence to a prescribed program. Five hundred and seventeen ambulatory pulmonary tuberculosis patients prescribed PAS as one of their antimicrobial drugs were subjected to a urine PAS test and were questioned by a physician at one of four clinics. The percentage of patients with negative urine PAS tests varied considerably from clinic to clinic, but average 13.7 percent. The percentage of patients with negative urine PAS tests varied considerably form clinic to clinic, but averaged 1.7 percent. The percentage of negative tests was higher among female patients than among mal, Negative rates increased in the are group from 20 to 49 and was considerably lower under 19 and above 50 years of age. Negative rates were higher in patients with less extensive disease and with negative bacteriologic findings. Negative rates were higher in patients with less education and in those no charged for their drugs. Negative rates increased also with the length of time that PAS was prescribed. After 19 months of therapy, however, this trend was reversed. Persuasion and adequate explanation of the necessity of regular chemotherapy will reduce the incidence of negative tests for urine PAS.

Studies on the Alteration of Tuberculin Reaction: Part 1: Alteration of the Tuberculin Reaction due to the Repeated Tests on the Same site of Human Body, Part 2: Duration of the Alteration of Tuberculin Reaction
Authors: Kahng Seun Je , Kim Kyung Sik
Published: March 2022

Repeated (2 times) tuberculin tests were performed in I to 6 years intervals on the same site of forearms to 172 men (23 to 30 years old) to investigate the duration of the alteration of tuberculin reactivity due to repeated tuberculin testings. Used tuberculins were 2.000 x diluted Old TubercuIi n and lγ/cc PPD solution. They were all non-tuberculous cases and 7 bone tuberculosis patients were selected to persue the relationship between the tuberculous disease and the alteration of tuberculin reactivity. First tuberculin tests were performed with 2,000 x diluted OT solution in all cases.1) In 137 cases. retested with 2,000 x diluted OT solution marked acceleration and increase in intensity of reaction were found in all cases until the intervals were prolonged 3 to 4 years. When the intervals were prolonged 4 to 5 years, acceleration of tuberculin reactions disappeared in 50% of all cases and when intervals were 5 to 6 years, 83% showed their maximal intensities of reactions in 48 hour readings. Consequently, when tuberculin test is repeated on the same site with same tuberculin, alteration of reactivity must be kept in mind unless the former test was performed 6 years or more before.2) When retested with PPD. accelcration and increase in intensity or tuberculin reactions were Iess prominent than retested with OT. (same tuberculin) When retested with PPD in 3 to 4 years intervals, 66% of all cases showed their maximal intensities in 48 hour readings and at 4 to 5years intervals, all cases showed no acceleration and their maximal intensities of reactions were found in 48 hour readings. It is quite different from the results obtained in the repeated tests with OT and it is sue to the use of different tuberculin when repeated.3) In 7cases of bone tuberculosis, 3 cases of them showed acceleration of reactivity and their maximal intensities were found in 20 to 24 hours reading.

Authors: Kim Ji Yoon , Choi Jimi , Vella Chantal A. , Criqui Michael H. , Allison Matthew A. , Kim Nam Hoon
Published: March 2022

Background: The weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) reflected body compositional changes with aging. This study was to investigate the association of WWI with abdominal fat and muscle mass in a diverse race/ethnic population.Methods: Computed tomography (CT) data from 1,946 participants for abdominal fat and muscle areas from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (785 Whites, 252 Asians, 406 African American, and 503 Hispanics) were used. Among them, 595 participants underwent repeated CT. The WWI was calculated as waist circumference (cm) divided by the square root of body weight (kg). The associations of WWI with abdominal fat and muscle measures were examined, and longitudinal changes in abdominal composition measures were compared.Results: In all race/ethnic groups, WWI was positively correlated with total abdominal fat area (TFA), subcutaneous fat area, and visceral fat area, but negatively correlated with total abdominal muscle area (TMA) and abdominal muscle radiodensity (P<0.001 for all). WWI showed a linear increase with aging regardless of race and there were no significant differences in the WWI distribution between Whites, Asians, and African Americans. In longitudinal analyses, over 38.6 months of follow-up, all abdominal fat measures increased but muscle measures decreased, along with increase in WWI. The more the WWI increased, the more the TFA increased and the more the TMA decreased.Conclusion: WWI showed positive associations with abdominal fat mass and negative associations with abdominal muscle mass, which likely reflects the abdominal compositional changes with aging in a multi-ethnic population.
Ferroptosis in Diabetic Nephropathy: A Narrative Review
Authors: Wang Yifan , Chen Haiyong
Published: March 2022

Abstract

The prevalence of diabetes has been sharply increasing over the past few decades. Approximately 20%-30% of patients with diabetes progress to evident nephropathy. Kidney cell deaths, for example, ferroptosis, pyroptosis, and apoptosis, are associated with diabetic nephropathy (DN). Ferroptosis is a novel regulated cell death characterized by the increase of oxidative stress and iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Laboratory or clinical findings indicate that ferroptosis plays an important role in the pathogenesis of DN. This review aimed to summarize the mechanisms of ferroptosis and relevant signaling pathways in DN and provide perspectives and clinical strategies for attenuating ferroptosis-associated DN.
Application of Speech Recognition Technology in Chinese English Simultaneous Interpretation of Law
Authors: Yang Xiao
Published: March 2022

Speech recognition is an important research field in natural language processing. In Chinese and English, which have rich data resources, the performance of end-to-end speech recognition model is close to that of Hidden Markov Model—Deep Neural Network (HMM-DNN) model. However, for the low resource speech recognition task of Chinese English hybrid, the end-to-end speech recognition system does not achieve good performance. In the case of limited mixed data between Chinese and English, the modeling method of end-to-end speech recognition is studied. This paper focuses on two end-to-end speech recognition models: connection timing distribution and attention based codec network. In order to improve the performance of Chinese English hybrid speech recognition, this paper studies how to improve the performance of the coder based on connection timing distribution model and attention mechanism, and tries to combine the two models to improve the performance of Chinese English hybrid speech recognition. In low resource Chinese English mixed data, the advantages of different models are used to improve the performance of end-to-end models, so as to improve the recognition accuracy of speech recognition technology in legal Chinese English simultaneous interpretation.

Authors: Abdulaziz K.
Published: March 2022

The economic analysis of rice value chain in Haryana has been carried out using a sample of 30 farmers, 10 wholesalers and 20 retailers which were purposively selected from Karnal district of Haryana. One government (HAFED Taraori rice mill) and 5 private rice mills in Karnal were selected as the processing units. The results revealed that retailers incurred the highest total cost in both Basmati and non-basmati (PR-fine) rice value chain (` 93.37 kg-1 and 41.73kg-1), whereas rice mills contributed the largest value addition to both Basmati and PR-fine rice (61.34% and 56.19%). The highest profit in Basmati rice and PR-fine rice was accrued by rice mills (` 37.96 kg-1 and ` 8.88 kg-1). The major production and processing constraints were lack of remunerative prices and market instability with Garrett mean score of 76.33 and 63.71, respectively, while the major wholesaling and retailing constraints was increased procurement cost as a result of per litre increased cost of fuel. Better remunerative price policy for paddy should be made to entice farmers to produce more and ensure regular supply of paddy to the processing units, which will trickle down to the entire value chain.
