Hubungan Persepsi Stres dengan Kerontokan Rambut pada Mahasiswa Tingkat Pertama di Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Tarumanagara
Authors: Kumalasari Tesalonika Priska , Moniaga Catharina Sagita
Published: November 2024

Kerontokan rambut menjadi masalah yang mengkhawatirkan bagi banyak orang, karena rambut berperan penting dalam penampilan. Faktor-faktor seperti genetik, hormon, diet, konsumsi obat tertentu, penyakit, dan stres dapat memicu kerontokan rambut. Stres, sebagai respons tubuh terhadap tekanan, diyakini mempengaruhi kerontokan rambut, meskipun hasil penelitian mengenai hubungan keduanya masih beragam. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan tujuan untuk menilai hubungan antara persepsi stres dengan kerontokan rambut pada mahasiswa tingkat pertama di Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Tarumanagara. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain penelitian observasional analitik dengan metode potong lintang dengan 131 responden. Responden yang didapat melakukan pengisian kuesioner Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) sebagai instrumen untuk menilai persepsi stres dan dilakukan pemeriksaan hair pull test untuk menilai kerontokan rambut yang sedang terjadi. Lepasnya rambut >2 helai pada setiap tarikan menandakan hair pull test positif. Delapan puluh empat koma tujuh persen responden mengalami stres sedang dan 61.8% ini mengalami kerontokan rambut. Jumlah subjek yang memiliki persepsi stres sedang dan berat yang mengalami kerontokan rambut sebanyak 77 orang (67,0%). Setelah dilakukan uji chi-square didapatkan bahwa persepsi stres sedang dan berat memiliki hubungan yang bermakna dengan kerontokan rambut (p = 0.001). Penelitian ini mendapatkan nilai prevalence risk ratio sebesar 2.678 yang menunjukkan risiko seseorang yang memiliki persepsi stres sedang – berat untuk mengalami kerontokan rambut lebih tinggi 2.678 kali dari seseorang yang memiliki persepsi stres ringan. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa seseorang yang memiliki persepsi stres sedang dan berat dapat meningkatkan risiko kerontokan rambut.

Inclusive educatoin and game-based learning for learners with disabilities: Perspectives from teachers in Bulgaria
Authors: Lendzhova Vladislava
Published: November 2024

The aim of this study is to explore the role of game-based learning (GBL) approaches when utilised for the needs of learners with disabilities. The research explores the strategies and practices employed to make teaching and learning more inclusive and accessible for learners with disabilities and discusses educators’ perspectives and attitudes on the affordances and constraints of educational games for learners with disabilities. From a theoretical point of view, our study is based on the social model of disability. Data were gathered and analyzed through 51 in-depth interviews with educators and specialists across all educational levels in Bulgaria, including general and special education schools, as well as universities. The key findings following thematic analysis include: a common systemic framework highlighting the interactions between the school, teachers, and parents, the diversity in the strategies and educational procedures employed in the country; skills gaps and training needs for educators; more proactive approach to using educational games by special educators compared to general education; and constraints stemming from strict curricula, regulatory policies, and technological challenges. The paper identifies key aspects that need to be considered for leveraging GBL towards more inclusive educational practices for learners with special educational needs.

Published: November 2024

The analysis shows that the innovative transformation in the banking system of Armenia is a multi-level process that has a significant impact on the entire financial sector of the country. One of the key aspects of this transformation is the deep integration of modern technology into banking. This not only facilitates the interaction of customers and banks, but also increases the level of transparency and efficiency of financial transactions. The innovation of the RA banking system contributes to the expansion of access to financial services, enabling more people to use financial services, especially where they were previously limited. It was concluded that innovations and technological developments enable the banking system to provide faster, safer and more convenient services, reduce human errors and improve the efficiency of processes. New technologies improve the level of security. All of this is leading to greater competition in the banking industry, new ways of working and strategies, and overall improvements in customer service and financial operations (Egorova, A., A., (2015). But they also present new challenges, such as data protection and security issues, as well as the need to use new technologies.

State Liability for Trials by Judges
Authors:   Korean Administrative Law Association, Chung Nam-Chul
Published: November 2024

The Supreme Court of Korea has ruled on the liability of the state for enacting Emergency Measure No. 9 and for the actions of the investigative bodies and judges who applied and enforced it. Since the Supreme Court’s decision, the issue of the state tort liability for the judges’ trials has again become the subject of considerable debate. The Korean Supreme Court has rarely ruled on the state’s liability for the trial conduct of judges, using vague criteria. The standard of “holding a trial for an illegal or improper purpose”, which has been recognized in many cases is too subjective. In addition, most cases, such as auction, criminal, and preservation proceedings, do not involve a “judgment”. Taking into account the nature and specificity of the judiciary, it is necessary to review the rules governing the immunity of judges from trial. To this end, it is necessary to define the “subject matter” of the judicial immunity. This should be limited to judgments which are recognized as having substantial legal force, or decisions which are recognized as having an equivalent effect. It is also necessary to consider when a judge can be held liable for judicial misconduct. These include cases where a judge’s conduct materially violates the constitution or the law; where the judge's conduct constitutes a criminal ‘offense’; where the judge intentionally or grossly exceeds the scope of his or her jurisdiction; or where the judge applies in ‘bad faith’ a law that is highly suspect of being unconstitutional. The above criteria are not perfect. They need to be openly discussed by practitioners and academics in the future. In addition, there should be a system of financial compensation for damage caused by minor errors, misunderstandings, or misjudgments by judges in the course of proceedings.
Civil Objection to Administrative Disposition of General Act on Public Administration and other Acts and its Improvement
Authors:   Korean Administrative Law Association, PARK Hun-min
Published: November 2024

As enforcement of General Act on Public Administration, its Art.36 Civil Objection to Administrative Disposition System has important in Korean Legal System. In consequence of comparative legal research, it become clear that many countries - Germany, France and Dutch- have similar scheme for Civil Objection to Administrative Disposition.
However in Korean legal System, Systemic Contradiction between provision for Civil Objection to Administrative Disposition should be resolved. Not only General Act on Public Administration, but also Civil Petitions Treatment Act has general clause for Civil Objection to Administrative Disposition System.
Nonetheless provisions for Civil Objection to Administrative Disposition of two Acts is discrepant. Priority order in application of laws, Extension effect of period for filing lawsuit are still debatable. It’s even more confusing in legal terminology and provision of Other Law and Regulations. These require a solution which is a clarifying statutory amendment.
The legality of municipal ordinances related to the installation and management of political party banners
Authors:   Korean Administrative Law Association, Lee Seunghoon
Published: November 2024

The Constitution guarantees comprehensive autonomy for local governments, which includes the assurance of autonomous affairs. However, this constitutional value of guaranteeing autonomous affairs is often threatened by the distribution and management of duties centered around state affairs. In 2022, the National Assembly amended the “ACT ON THE MANAGEMENT OF OUTDOOR ADVERTISEMENTS AND PROMOTION OF OUTDOOR ADVERTISEMENT INDUSTRY” exempting regulations on party banners. If this amendment intends to separate the affairs related to the installation and management of party banners from the installation and management of the other outdoor advertisements, which fall under autonomous affairs, and classify them as state affairs, it becomes an example of threatening the guarantee of autonomous affairs. This study aims to review the classification system of affairs under LOCAL AUTONOMY ACT by analyzing a Supreme Court ruling that has highlighted this issue and to emphasize the importance of guaranteeing autonomous affairs. It is neither difficult to establish special provisions that limit the scope or effectiveness of autonomous affairs through legal amendments, nor is it impossible to strip autonomous affairs and convert them into state affairs. In such a situation where there is a threat to autonomous affairs, when amending laws related to autonomous affairs, it is necessary to ensure that the nature of autonomous affairs is maintained, and the interpretation of such amended laws should also aim to preserve the nature of autonomous affairs as much as possible.
Der Entschädigungsanspruch nach dem koreanischen Polizeigesetz : Zur Ausübung des Rückgriffanspruchs gegen den Verantwortlichen
Authors:   Korean Administrative Law Association, Park Wonkyu
Published: November 2024

Die Bestimmungen über die Entschädiung von Schäden nach dem koreanischen Polizeigesetz wurden zum Schutz der Rechte der Bürger und zur Gewährleistung einer stabilen Ausübung der Aufgaben von Polizeibeamten eingeführt. Die Entschädigung nach diesem Gesetz unterscheidet sich von dem allgemeinen verwaltungsrechtlichen Entschädigung nach Art. 23. Abs. 3 GG dadurch, dass sie nicht nur für materielle Schäden, sondern auch für Schäden an Leib und Leben, und nicht nur für beabsichtigte, sondern auch für unbeabsichtigte und zufällige Eingriffe entschädigt. Die Entschädigung nach dem koreanischen PolG ist von Bedeutung, da sie enteignungsgleiche Eingriffe, enteignende Eingriffe, und Aufopferungsanspruch, die bisher nur in der theoretischen Diskussion erörtert wurden, in das geltende Recht übernommen hat. In der Praxis der polizeichlichen Entschädigung gibt es jedoch die Tendenz, die in § 11-2 PolG festgelegten Anforderungen eher weit auszulegen. Diese Praxis mag zwar dem Zweck der polizeigesetzlichen Entschädigung entsprechen, führt aber dazu, dass die einheitliche Anwendung des Entschädiungsregelungen erschwert wird und die Abgrenzung zu anderen verwaltungsrechtlichen Schadensausgleichssystemen unklar wird. In dieser Hinsicht ist eine klare Auslegung und Anwendung der rechtlichen Anforderungen erforderlich.
§ 11-2 PolG enthält keine Bestimmung über die Ausübung des Regressanspruchs gegen den Verantwortlichen. Infolgedessen kann der Staat, selbst wenn er einem Nichtverantwortlichen eine Entschädigung geleistet hat, diese Kosten nicht vom Verantwortlichten zurückfordern. Dies wäre mit dem Gedanken der gerechten Lastenverteilung unvereinbar, da der Staat für das Fehlverhalten des Verantwortlichen haftet. Aus diesem Grund kommt es in der Entschädiungspraxis vor, dass auch dann, wenn eine Nichtverantwortliche die Voraussetzungen für eine Entschädigung erfüllt, die Ansprüche mit der Begründung abgewiesen werden, dass ein zivilrechtlicher Schadensersatzanspruch gegen den Verantwortlichen besteht. Dies ist unvertretbar, weil damit das Risiko, keinen Schadensersatz erhalten zu können, auf einen Nichtverantwortlichen übertragen wird, dessen Rechtsgüter im Interesse des Gemeinwohls, wie Strafverfolgung oder Gefahrenabwehr, beeinträchtigt wurden. Die Verantwortlichkeit des polizeilichen Veranwortlichen auf der Ebene der Ausübung von Polizeibefugnissen sollte auch auf der Ebene der Kostentragung beibehalten werden. Daher ist es notwendig, Vorschriften über den Regressanspruchs zu schaffen, um diese Situation zu verbessern.
Fecundidad adolescente: una penalidad oculta

Published: November 2024

La paternidad o maternidad prematura se ha convertido en una problemática con alcances intergeneracionales que afectan todas las facetas del adolescente y su familia. El alcance de estas repercusiones puede afectar de forma diferente según el género y el entorno socioeconómico. Este artículo analiza la relación entre el rendimiento académico y los adolescentes que enfrentan una maternidad o paternidad prematura, a partir de un enfoque de género y tipo de sostenimiento del colegio. Para el análisis se emplean estimaciones econométricas con base en un modelo de efectos fijos, que revelan una realidad oculta. En donde, si bien la fecundidad adolescente se asocia con un menor rendimiento académico, el deterioro es mayor en los hombres que en las mujeres. Este resultado visibiliza los alcances del sistema patriarcal y la discusión sobre masculinidades que es poco explorada.

Hermona Soreq: Revolutionizing neuroscience by elucidating the roles of poly(A) tails, mRNA stability, and acetylcholine in brain-body communication throughout the lifespan
Authors: Soreq Hermona
Published: November 2024

Hermona Soreq, PhD, holds the Endowed Slesinger Professorship of Molecular Neuroscience at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. She is an internationally recognized molecular neuroscientist known for her research into the cholinergic system and the small RNA regulators driving the parasympathetic system in men and women under daily and acute stress responses and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases (AD, PD). Her studies have long been focused on the roles of acetylcholine in the mammalian nervous system. In the 1980s, Professor Soreq and coworkers cloned the human cholinesterase genes, identified several disease-related mutations and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that may impair their functions, and described the unusual features these mutations conferred on carriers under acute stress, exposure to anticholinesterase poisons and diverse disease conditions, including but not limited to myasthenia gravis, ischemic stroke, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, AD and PD as well as daily stress responses. Soreq further identified microRNA-132 as a principal controller of the cholinergic pathway and studied its impact as well as of other cholinergic-targeted microRNAs as regulators of parasympathetic brain and body functions and neuroinflammation. More recently, she has shifted her interest to the re-discovered transfer RNA fragments (tRFs), and showed that their rapidly declined control over cholinergic transcripts may lead to the fast cognitive deterioration of women living with AD; that they are prominently altered in PD patients’ biofluids and that their levels are sex-relatedly modified in the blood of newborn babies, dependent on pre-delivery stress. Her multi-leveled interests in the stress and sex-related cholinergic aspects of AD, PD, adult, and pre-delivery trauma further reflect the impact on acute stress responses as the kernel of the neuroscience research in the current Israeli landscape and has further enabled her a wide-angle view of diverse cholinergic-regulated states and diseases. We are delighted that Professor Soreq answered the Genomic Press Interview, generously sharing her life's trajectory with our readers.

Authors: Grieco Steven F. , Johnston Kevin G. , Xu Xiangmin
Published: November 2024

On January 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared that Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) had become a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC) and was assessed as a pandemic in March 2020. For the next 2–3 years, Americans followed stay-at-home orders, and used virtual technologies, while struggling with pandemic-related stressors (1). This affected mental health (2). Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms increased (3), resulting in an uptick in ADHD prescriptions (4). A shortage of Adderall was announced by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in October 2022. As actual prescription usage data were not available on the short time frame of the pandemic, we explored the potential of using internet searches as a proxy for real health behavior, with prevention of future shortages in mind. We used Google Trends (GT) data (5) to estimate public interest in ADHD medications during the pandemic.
