PRAVNI POLOŽAJ HRVATSKE NAKON HRVATSKO-UGARSKE NAGODBE OD 1868. GODINE
Authors: Novakovic Filip
Published: January 2021

U radu će biti prikazana analiza događaja koji su neposredno prethodili sklapanju Nagodbe između Hrvatskog sabora i Ugarskog parlamenta 1868. godine, ali i značaj same Nagodbe, te njezin utjecaj na specifičan pravni položaj koji je uživala Hrvatska kao entitet u sastavu kako hrvatsko- ugarske državne zajednice, tako i u okvirima Austro-Ugarske Monarhije nakon njezina stvaranja 1867. godine. Poseban akcenat će biti stavljen na prava i dužnosti hrvatskih provincijalnih institucija u cilju dokučivanja stvarnog pravnog statusa koji je imala Hrvatska od sredine XIX stoljeća pa sve do ulaska u zajedničku državu 1918. godine.
INTERVENCIJSKO DEJSTVO PRAVNOSNAŽNE PRESUDE
Authors: Čanovic Jelena
Published: January 2021

Predmet ovog rada je procesnopravni institut koji je kreirala teorija civilne procedure, a koji je s obzirom na postojeće materijalnopravne situacije prepoznat u sudskoj praksi i koji je potom normiran Zakonom o parničnom postupku iz 2011. godine. Intervencijsko dejstvo pravnosnažne presude donete između originernih stranaka u prethodnoj parnici, predstavlja posebno dejstvo u potonjoj, novoj parnici između stranke i trećeg lica (umešača, ali i trećeg lica obaveštenog o parnici i imenovanog prethodnika). Kao specifično dejstvo presude odlikuje se brojnim karakteristikama, pa su u radu analizirana pitanja koje se tiču suštine, subjektivnih i objektivnih granica intervencijskog dejstva, uslova pod kojima ono nastupa, kao i uslova za uspeh prigovora kojim se to dejstvo otklanja.
SISTEM ZAJEDNICE U SAVREMENOJ USTAVNOJ DRŽAVI
Authors: Ivkovic Nikola
Published: January 2021

Rad je izraz težnji za otkrivanjem „magične formule“ stvaranja sistema, odnosno moderne, ustavne države. Kako je ovo izuzetno zahtevan zadatak, pokretanje osnovne diskusije o sistemu, te državno- pravnom ustrojstvu, elementima moderne, pa sledstveno ustavne države, vrši se sa normativno-dogmatskog i političko-sociološkog stanovišta. Nakon toga sistematski prva faza ustavnog kontitucionalizma zauzima centralno mesto diskusije. Preambula ustava se analizira kako bi se zaključile zakonomernosti i razlike između pravnih i država koje teže ili bi trebalo da teže idealu sigurne, pravno uređene države. Uočavanjem već izvršenih klasifikacija i stvaranjem novih, daje se doprinos savremenijem naučnom pogledu na preambulu ustava. Povezivanje sistema sa jedne strane i znanja, nauke sa druge vrši se uporednim pregledom osnovnih zaključaka koji određuju moderne globalne tokove stvaranja države. Deficitarnost istraživanja vezanih za preambulu ustava opravdava svrhu rada, a u zaključnim razmatranjima politička vizija tvoraca državnog ustrojsta, ističe se kao spojnica socioloških komponenti sa normativnom formulom državotvornog uspeha.

DIREITO DE PROPRIEDADE E O PROBLEMA DA APLICABILIDADE DO PRINCÍPIO DO NÃO CONFISCO: O CASO DAS MULTAS TRIBUTÁRIAS CONFISCATÓRIAS
Authors: Cavalcante Caio Neno Silva
Published: January 2021

Este trabalho tem como objetivo aprofundar as definições de confisco, efeito confiscatório e princípio do não confisco, com especial atenção para o problema da aplicabilidade deste princípio a casos concretos, em face da indefinição de suas fronteiras. Para tanto, desenvolve-se uma análise histórica do desenvolvimento do direito de propriedade, bem como dos limites que a ele podem ser impostos, como foco na tributação. Apresenta-se, também, a mudança de enfoque dos antigos limites ao poder de tributar, atualmente tidos como direitos fundamentais dos contribuintes. Como exemplo de construção jurisprudencial importante, é apresentado o caso das multas tributárias, analisando-se, ao final, de que forma esse exemplo contribui para a solução do problema da indeterminação conceitual do efeito confiscatório pela jurisprudência brasileira. É utilizado o método dedutivo, por meio de pesquisa realizada em legislação, doutrina e jurisprudência das Cortes Superiores brasileiras.

Authors: Vietrynskyi I.
Published: January 2021

The article examines the prerequisites for the creation and early stages of development of the Commonwealth of Australia from the founding of the first European colonies prior to the legal formalization of the federation. Also mentioned are the variability of approaches to the development of Australia’s historiography, in particular from the positions of classical English and modern Australian views. Also, the early stages of the development of the continent that preceded the discovery of Australia by Europeans are considered. It analyzes the wide context of geopolitical processes in Europe in the era of imperialism (XVI-XIX centuries), as well as the circumstances of the formation of large colonial empires. In particular, features of the status, place and role of England in the international political processes of the XVIІ and XVIII centuries are shown, and the stages of the formation of the British colonial empire are also considered. The complex of internal socio-economic as well as foreign policy prerequisites for the beginning of the colonization of Australia by Great Britain is analyzed, in particular the attention paid to the consequences of the British Industrial Revolution XVIII. The stages of formation of the British colonies in Australia, as well as the development of the mainland from the establishment of the first settlement - New South Wales until full control of the continent are investigated. The characteristics of the economic, social, political, demographic and other aspects of the development of Australian colonies are analyzed. The article discusses the evolution of trade and administrative relations between individual colonies, as well as the stages of preparation for the creation of a federation, which was called the Commonwealth of Australia and changed the country's colonial position to the dominion status in the British Empire. Particular attention is paid to the international political processes that accompanied the development of the Australian continent, as well as the role of colonial administrations in regional geopolitical processes, in particular the colonization of New Guinea.
¿Legados prestigiosos? La revalorización del sustrato cultural indígena en la construcción identitaria argentina, entre fines del siglo XIX y los años treinta
Authors: Mailhe Alejandra
Published: January 2021

Este trabajo analiza la resignificación del legado cultural indígena en la obra de varios intelectuales argentinos vinculados al espiritualismo (Joaquín V. González, Ricardo Rojas y Ernesto Quesada) entre fines del siglo XIX y los años treinta. En contraste con perspectivas hegemónicas que devalúan la alteridad indígena — como en el caso de Estanislao Zeballos y Bartolomé Mitre —, estos autores destacan la importancia de los vínculos socio-culturales entre las elites tradicionales y los indígenas. Forjados especialmente en el noroeste argentino (NOA) desde la Conquista, estos lazos se basarían en el supuesto vínculo de los grupos indígenas con las “grandes” civilizaciones precolombinas, y en su participación en las guerras de emancipación. Al imaginar instancias de convivialidad entre actores sociales antagónicos, estos discursos tienden a ocultar asimetrías implícitas a lo largo de la historia nacional, y a negar a los indígenas como sujetos sociales activos en el presente.

ABSTRACT

Today a grateful woman is a situation that is difficult for women to do in her life. Women are hedonistic because they are detrimental not only spiritually, but also individual character and personality. Therefore, the application of women who are grateful according to the Bible is very important for women who are hedonistic and ungrateful by understanding the true Word of God, knowing their essence as God's people. God's Word is the truth that will lead believers to be like Christ Jesus. Hedonist women who are not grateful have occurred in various circles. This is a situation of concern, spiritual and moral deterioration will certainly affect the church. Departing from these problems, it is clear that hedonistic women are very dangerous. With a qualitative approach and descriptive-theological methods in this thesis, the authors provide an implementation for hedonic women, so that the results of this studycan be a reference for women in improving their spiritual quality.The second abstract is written in English.

Konsep Kesatuan Yesus dan Allah Bapa Dalam Injil Yohanes 17:22 Untuk Menghadapi Doktrin Subordinansi Tritunggal Saksi Yehuwa
Authors: Manafe Yanjumseby Yeverson , Pattinama Yenny Anita
Published: January 2021

Doktrin Trinitas atau doktrin Allah Tritunggal adalah pengajaran tentang Allah yang menyatakan diri-Nya dalam tiga pribadi, yaitu Allah Bapa, Allah Anak (Yesus Kristus), dan Allah Roh Kudus yang ketiganya adalah esa. Di satu sisi, doktrin tersebut merupakan doktrin yang sangat penting dan unik dalam kekristenan. Dikatakan penting karena doktrin ini berbicara tentang Allah Tritunggal yang menjadi pusat pujian, penyembahan dan pelayanan orang percaya. Dikatakan unik karena doktrin tersebut tidak terdapat dalam agama manapun di dunia ini. Namun, di sisi lain, doktrin tersebut merupakan doktrin yang sulit dipahami dan diterima oleh akal manusia bahkan menjadi bahan perdebatan yang hebat di berbagai tempat, masa dan kalangan manusia. Dengan studi eksegetis Yohanes 17: 22 sebagai dasar evaluasi kritis terhadap doktrin subordinasi Tritunggal dalam theologia Saksi Yehuwa, maka dapat diketahui bahwa doktrin subordinasi Tritunggal dalam theologia Saksi Yehuwa adalah doktrin yang menyimpang dari kebenaran Alkitab.

  The doctrine of the Trinity or the doctrine of the Triune God is the teaching of God revealing Himself in three persons, namely God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit of which all three are one. On the one hand, the doctrine is a doctrine that is very important and unique in Christianity. It is said to be important because this doctrine speaks of the triune God who is the center of the worship, worship and service of believers. Said to be unique because the doctrine does not exist in any religion in this world. However, on the other hand, the doctrine is a doctrine that is difficult to understand and accepted by human reason and even becomes a matter of great debate in various places, times and circles of humans. With the exegetical study of John 17: 22 as the basis for a critical evaluation of the doctrine of the subordination of the Trinity in the theology of Jehovah's Witnesses, it can be seen that the doctrine of the subordination of the Trinity in the theology of Jehovah's Witnesses is a doctrine that deviates from Bible truth.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate different VMAT planning techniques for a multi-leaf collimator (MLC)providing maximum aperture of 21 × 16 cm².
Methods: A VMAT planning study of nine prostate and nine head-and-neck cancer patients was carried out. The patients were previously treated with Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) technique during 2014-15, at radiation oncology SanBortolo Hospital, Vicenza, Italy. Three VMAT plans for each of prostate and head-and-neck cancer patient were optimized using Pinnacle treatment planning system for 6MV photon beam from ElektaSynergyS®Linac system. Single arc, dual arc and combined two independent-single-arcs were optimized for collimator angle 45°. VMAT treatment planning comparison was made among single-arc dual-arc and combined two independent-single-arcs. The student’s t-test (two-sided) with p ? 0.05 was applied for significant difference between dose volume indices of plans.
Results: All VMAT techniques produced clinically acceptable plans for prostate, while for head-and-neck, DA and ISAs significantly improved target coverage compared to SA. Single arc is sufficient for prostate, while inefficient in case of head-and-neck dose-planning. In spite of having different VMAT optimization approach dual arc and two combined independent-single-arcs provided very similar target coverage, while dual arc improved sparing of organs-at-risk. Similar treatment delivery times were observed for DA and ISAs VMAT techniques.
Conclusion: Single arc is sufficient for prostate, while inefficient in case of head-and-neck dose-planning.Dual arc and two combined independent-single-arcs provided similar PTV coverage, while DA provided better sparing of organs at risk. Continuous...

Nüzûl ortamından zaman ve zihinsel olarak uzaklaştığımız için Kur’an’ın ne dediğini anlamak zorlaşmıştır. Bulunduğumuz çağın zihin dünyası ve kelimeleriyle geçmişi okumaya çalışmak yanlış anlamalara sebebiyet verebilmektedir. Çünkü kavramlar farklı dönemlerde farklı anlamlar ifade edebilmektedir. Dolayısıyla doğru anlamı yakalama yolunda kavram çalışmaları önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada cehl kelimesi üzerinden “cehâletle günah işleyen” ifadesini barındıran üç ayete anlam verilmiştir. Kur’an öncesi şiirlerden, sözlüklerden çıkarılan sonuca göre c-h-l kökü, “sefeh, küfür, bağy ve tuğyan” kelimeleriyle eş, “tecrübe, hilm, sekinet ve müsamaha” kelimeleriyle zıt anlamlıdır. Kelimenin anlamları düşünüldüğünde “doğal eğilimlerin terbiye edilmemesi, eğitilmemesi durumunda ortaya çıkan davranış” manasına gelebileceği sonucuna varılmıştır. Bu bağıntılardan ve tefsir verilerinden hareketle özellikle meallerdeki “bilmeyerek günah işleyen” şeklinde çevirinin doğru olmayacağı ve bu anlamın “bilerek işlenen günahın tövbesinin kabul olmayacağı” gibi hatalı sonuca götürebileceği ve “kişinin yanlış davranıştan sonra tövbe ederse affedileceğini” söyleyen ayetlerle çelişkili görüneceği tespit edilmiştir. Bu ayetlerdeki cehâletin “şehvete, nefsin arzularına” uymak anlamında kullanıldığı sonucuna varılmıştır.

SELF ADAPTIVE EFFECTIVE APERTURE FOR MULTI ANTENNA SET-UPS IN FADED WIRELESS CHANNELS
Authors: KASHYAP PARISMITA A. , Sarma Kandarpa Kumar
Published: January 2021

In mobile communication, a less explored technique to mitigate fading effects is based on the physical parameter of the transmitter by varying the physical dimension of the transmitting antenna. This paper deals with a self adaptive system to eliminate severe fading effects in different multi antenna set-ups by adaptively updating the effective aperture of the transmitting antenna. The system changes the effective aperture of the transmitting antenna to adapt to a previously set system parameter. We consider here Single input-single output (SISO), Single input-multi output (SIMO), Multi input-single output (MISO), and Multi input-multi output (MIMO) system with three different modulation schemes - BPSK, DPSK and QAM. Finally, the system performance is analyzed for the different set-ups in terms of Bit error rate (BER). We will see that our results show significantly better performance.

Wireless connection is established between the general controller on the robot and the control room. A personal computer (PC) acts as the general controller which is responsible for mapping the bombs, hazardous conditions and determining some general settings for local controller. The local controller navigates the robot based on the feedbacks from several sensors to detect the barriers and bombs. The camera is attached to the robot which continuously capturing the surrounding areas and sending the same video data wirelessly with the separate channel to the control room simultaneously. If it detects any hazardous conditions, alarm should be activated manually/ automatically, which alerts people to vacate that area immediately.
A NOVEL FEATURE EXPANSION ALGORITHM FOR NONRIGID CT/MRI BRAIN IMAGE REGISTRATION
Authors: VARDHAN N. HARSHA , HUSSAIN S. ASIF
Published: January 2021

Image registration is one of the challenging tasks in medical image analysis. While coming to non rigid image registration there are mainly two issues to consider. They are i) intensity similarity and ii) gray level transformation. The issue with intensity similarity is it is not necessarily equivalent to anatomical similarity when the anatomical correspondences between source and target images are established. Another issue is choosing an appropriate registration algorithm. It should be robust against monotonic gray-level transformation when aligning anatomical structures in the presence of bias fields. Here new feature- intensity based registration method developed for nonrigid brain image registration to overcome the above stated issues named as Anatomical Region Descriptor (ARD). This method is developed on image feature, it encodes geometric properties of anatomical structures and pixel wise interaction details. It is efficient and theoretically monotonic gray level transformation invariant. This method is integrated with intensity based registration algorithm named as residual complexity for Registration purpose. This proposed method is compared with three other non rigid image registration algorithms. Experimental results of the proposed method show that it achieves the highest accuracy rate among the compared methods.

Objective. To describe outcomes of two simulation teaching methods in developing intubation skills of year level six medical students (clinical clerks). Methods. Students were shown a 6-minute video on intubation. Students were exposed to video-assisted learning, videoassisted learning with instructor-guided simulation, and videoassisted learning with experiential learning. Each student was assessed by a non-graded 11 point objective structured clinical examination. Results and Discussion. The three learning strategies: 1. Videoassisted learning, 2. Video-assisted learning with instructorguided simulation, 3. Video-assisted learning with experiential learning (self-discovery learning) simulation showed OSCE mean scores (standard deviations) of 5.76 (2.16), 7.21 (2.35) and 7.60 (1.72), respectively. Failure of intubation was 21% (8/38), 2% (1/40) and 0% (0/36), respectively. There is an absolute risk reduction of 27-30% in failure of intubation when either VGL or VEL is used. Students recognized the contribution of the simulation-based activities to the development of their intubation skills. They appreciated the opportunity to actually perform intubation in a rehearsal setting before doing the procedure on real patients. Conclusion. Medical simulation enhanced student skills development. Experiential learning or self-discovery learning method may be as effective as instructor guided simulation.

Published: January 2021

Objective. This study assessed the reliability and validity of a Filipino version of the Cardiff Acne Disability Index. Methods. In Phase 1, the Cardiff Acne Disability Index (CADI) was translated into Filipino as the Cardiff Indeks ng Kapansanan ng may Tigyawat (CIKT) following international guidelines on translation and cultural adaptation, and passed a cognitive debriefing test (a form of face validity testing). In Phase 2, the CIKT was administered to 400 public high school students (11-18 years old). Cronbach’s α was used to measure reliability while construct validity was determined by comparing 1) the CIKT scores of adolescents with acne and those without acne and 2) the CIKT scores with the scores of the Taluntunan ng Kalidad ng Buhay na Hinggil sa Dermatolohiya (TKBD), which is a validated Filipino version of the Dermatology Life Quality Index. Results. Cronbach’s α showed an adequate internal consistency of 0.7. The linear regression coefficient for those with and without acne was 0.98 (CI 0.59, 1.37) (p = 0.00) while the Spearman correlation showed a positive correlation between the CIKT and the TKBD (0.58, p=0.00), both indicating validity. Conclusion. The CIKT is a reliable and valid Filipino translation of the CADI.
Experience and Understanding of Sensory Neuropathy in the Filipino Context
Authors: Yu Chua Constantine L. , Pasco Paul Matthew D.
Published: January 2021

Background. Locally, understanding and communicating sensory neuropathy may be confounded by a “comprehension gap” during consults and limited “nerve literacy” or knowledge of patients about nerves. This may affect the effectiveness of healthcare. Objective. The study aims to describe the Filipino patients’ experience of sensory neuropathy in local terms and their understanding of its causation. Methods. A cross-sectional, descriptive study among 24 patients with sensory neuropathy was done using semi-structured individual interviews. The first part elicited Filipino terms and descriptions used to explain their experience. The second part elicited perceived cause pre- and post- consult and perceived body part affected. Results. The most common descriptors of sensory neuropathy include “manhid”, “kuryente”, “tinutusuk-tusok”, “ngalay”, “kirot”, and “naninigas”. Many would initially identify “pasma” as a cause. Post-consult, many would cease to see it as part of natural ageing and would identify structural explanations such as impingement. They would however attribute it to an affectation of "ugat" which most defined as blood vessels. Conclusion. The abovementioned terms are commonly used to describe sensory neuropathy and can be clinically useful in eliciting symptoms. There is existing confusion with regards to the nerve as a structure involved even after consultation.

Published: January 2021

Background. Family communication facilitates coping from a genetic condition by ensuring accurate understanding of the illness, its inheritance pattern, associated recurrence risks and risk perception. Objective. This paper explores Filipino mothers’ experience in communicating information about congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) to their children. Methods. Descriptive qualitative design was used. Families affected with CAH were recruited via a CAH support group. Semi-structured interviews with mothers were done on the following topics: content and understanding of information communicated, reasons for communicating, and changes and adjustments in the family. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data. Results. Five families consisting of 11 individuals, including four mothers, were interviewed. Findings revealed that while mothers are open to communicate with their child about CAH, this is often triggered by questions from the child. Mothers find it challenging to discuss about the condition and when they do discuss, this is most often done to facilitate better understanding among the siblings. There is an attempt to explain the inheritance of CAH but this is also limited to the mother’s understanding. Conclusion. The findings of the study provide guidance to health professionals on how they can support parents, particularly mothers, in discussing CAH with their children.
