Authors: Kansil Christine S. T. , Chang Yiupy
Published: April 2024

PMDN menurut Pasal 1 angka 2 Undang-Undang Penanaman Modal adalah kegiatan menanam modal untuk melakukan usaha di wilayah negara Republik Indonesia yang dilakukan oleh penanam modal dalam negeri dengan menggunakan modal dalam negeri. Penanaman modal dalam negeri (PMDN) mimiliki pengaruh positif dan tidak signifikan terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi di Indonesia. Kondisi ini dapat dilihat Probabilitas penanaman modal dalam negeri yang kecil dari 0,05. Tidak signifikannya pengaruh PMDN terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi mengindikasikan dengan naik turunnya pertumbuhan ekonomi ditentukan dari penanaman modal dalam negeri (PMDN). Jumlah investasi penanaman modal dalam negeri yang ditanamankan oleh perusahan akan dapat menambah atau mengurangi jumlah kesempatan kerja yang tersedia yang juga akan berdampak bagi pertumbuhan ekonomi. Berdasarkan hasil pengolahan data dan pembahasan maka dapat ditarik kesimpulan dimana investasi penanaman modal dalam negeri (PMDN) memiliki pengaruh positif yang signifikan terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi di Indoensia. Artinya semakin tinggi PMDN maka semakin meningkat juga Pertumbuhan ekonomi.

Published: April 2024

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana desentralisasi fiskal dan politik dalam pelaksanaan otonomi daerah di Indonesia. Metode yang digunakan adalah dengan pendekatan kualitatif yang berasal dari jurnal,buku,makalah skripsi dan majalah lainnya. Pada pembahasan penelitian ini yaitu fenomena yang sedang berlangsung dalam kebijakan desentralisasi fiskal dan hubungannya dengan kontrol politik terhadap kepentingan elit adalah kecenderungan daerah untuk membentuk daerah otonomi baru, yang pada dasarnya tidak didasarkan pada aspirasi atau tujuan. Fenomena lain yang berkembang dalam penerapan desentralisasi fiskal terlihat pada semakin leluasnya daerah otonom khususnya kabupaten/kota untuk meningkatkan anggaran belanja pegawai daerah pada APBD. Anggaran transfer fiskal khususnya Dana Alokasi Umum (DAU) yang dimana menunjukkan bahwa pemerintah daerah, khusunya kabupaten/kota tidak dapat diatur sebagai otoritas atau tunduk pada kendali pemerintah yang lebih tinggi.

Authors: Vido Vionno Vedric
Published: April 2024

Kekerasan seksual adalah setiap perbuatan merendahkan, menghina, melecehkan, dan / atau menyerang tubuh, dan / atau fungsi reproduksi seseorang, karena ketimpangan relasi kuasa dan / atau gender, yang berakibat atau dapat berakibat penderitaan psikis dan / atau fisik termasuk yang mengganggu kesehatan reproduksi seseorang. Kekerasan seksual sendiri sering terjadi di tempat menimba ilmu yag dimana kasus kekerasan seksual mengalami peningkatan setiap tahunnya. Oleh karena itu beberapa pihak mengajukan pengesahan RUU PKS agar efektif dalam mencegah segala bentuk kekerasan seksual, menangani, melindungi, memulihkan korban serta melaksanakan penegakan hukum, merehabilitasi pelaku, mewujudkan lingkungan tanpa kekerasan seksual, dan menjamin ketidakberulangan terjadinya kekerasan seksual. Maka dari itu disahkannya RUU PKS menjadi UU TPKS yang diharapkan efektivitasnya dalam mengurangi dan menekan kasus kekerasan seksual yang terjadi di Indonesia. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode penelitian hukum normatif yang bersifat deskriptif, dengan data sekunder yang bersumber dari bahan hukum primer dan tersier, serta teknik analisis kualitatif yang mendasarkan pada satu atau lebih dari tiga metode yaitu mengumpulkan, mengkakses, atau menghasilkan data pengamatan, apapun tingkat partisipasi; wawancara dalam bentuk percakapan; dan pembicaraan cermat atas dokumen terkait topik.
Pelanggaran Terhadap Undang Undang Ketenagakerjaan (Hotel Lombok Plaza)
Authors: Max Alessandro Christian , Lie Gunardi , Putra Moody Rizqy Syailendra
Published: April 2024

Salah satu latar belakang lahirnya Undang-undang Nomor 13 Tahun 2003 Tentang Ketenagakerjaan adalah karena beberapa peraturan perundang-undangan yang berlaku selama ini menempatkan pekerja pada posisi yang kurang menguntungkan dalam pelayanan penempatan tenaga kerja dan sistem hubungan industrial yang menonjolkan perbedaan kedudukan dan kepentingan sehingga dipandang sudah tidak sesuai lagi dengan kebutuhan masa kini dan tuntutan masa yang akan datang. Indonesia sebagai negara hukum memberkan jaminan hidup dan bebas dari perlakuan bersifat diskriminatif. Demikian pula perlindungan hak asasi manusia merupakan kewajiban pemerintah dalam melaksanakan fungsi pelayanan, pengawasan, maupun penindakan pelanggaran hukum ketenagakerjaan. Cita hukum dalam rangka menjamin kesejahteraan masyarakat, pekerja, dan pengusaha dalam hubungan kerja wajib menjamin aspek keadilan, yang pada gilirannya dapat mewujudkan nilai kemanfaatan bagi kepentingan pelaku ekonomi dan pengguna produksi.
Perlindungan Hukum Terhadap Anak di Bawah Umur yang Dikeluarkan dari Sekolah Karena Telah Melangsungkan Perkawinan
Authors: Sriyanto Mohammad Rubby
Published: April 2024

Anak merupakan subjek hukum dimana perlindungan hak-hak konstitusionalnya harus dapat dijamin dengan baik. Hampir seluruh komponen masyarakat telah menyadari bagaimana pentingnya menjaga pergaulan anak karena pertahanan diri anak yang masih terbatas dan belum sempurna. Masa anak-anak memiliki peran yang strategis dan memiliki sifat khusus, oleh karena itu diperlukan adanya pembinaan dan perlindungan demi terjaminnya pertumbuhan dan perkembangan anak, baik dalam segi fisik, mental, dan sosial. Namun akan tetapi, dalam realitanya di Indonesia masih terjadi beberapa pelanggaran sehingga penjaminan perlindungan pertumbuhan dan perkembangan anak tidak dilaksanakan sebagaimana mestinya. Sebagaimana dalam penelitian ini menggunakan yuridis normatif, yang memuat dua rumusan masalah sebagai berikut: Pertama, Bagaimana perlindungan hukum yang didapat oleh siswi di bawah umur yang telah dikeluarkan dari sekolah karena telah menikah ditinjau dari Undang-Undang Hak Asasi Manusia. Kedua, bagaimana seharusnya pihak sekolah bertindak dalam memberikan sanksi kepada siswi tersebut apabila ditinjau dari Hak Asasi Manusia. Hasil penelitian dalam penulisan ini ialah, pertama APM merupakan kelompok rentan yang harus mendapatkan perlindungan hukum terhadap sanksi yang diberikan oleh pihak sekolah, karena sanksi yang diberikan tersebut dirasa tidak tepat karena sanski tersebut merupakan keputusan yang tidak memberikan keadilan dan dapat berdampak buruk bagi kehidupan Sudirman. Kedua, Seharusnya pihak sekolah dalam memberikan sanksi kepada APM harus benar-benar didasari rasa adil dan efektif serta diutamakan prinsip kepentingan yang terbaik bagi anak sebagaimana hal tersebut sesuai dengan Pasal 2 Undang-Undang Perlindungan Anak. Maka tindakan pemberian sanksi tersebut sudah sepantasnya dilakukan secara bijaksana dan tidak mengabaikan hak yang dimiliki APM.

Pergaulan Bebas di Kalangan Remaja
Authors: M. Mbayang Chrissonia
Published: April 2024

Pergaulan bebas di kalangan remaja di Indonesia merupakan masalah yang semakin mendalam dan meresahkan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi faktor-faktor penyebab pergaulan bebas dan strategi mengatasi permasalahan tersebut. Dalam analisisnya, penelitian ini mengacu pada kasus konkret pembuangan bayi oleh sepasang remaja di Cimahi, Jawa Barat, yang menjadi gambaran nyata dampak tragis dari pergaulan bebas. Penelitian ini mengungkap bahwa faktor penyebab pergaulan bebas di antara remaja melibatkan kurangnya pendidikan seks yang komprehensif, tekanan sosial dari teman sebaya, peran orangtua yang kurang aktif, akses mudah terhadap konten seksual, dan kurangnya kesadaran tentang konsekuensi tindakan. Oleh karena itu, upaya mengatasi pergaulan bebas harus melibatkan pendidikan seks yang lebih baik di sekolah, peran orangtua dalam membimbing anak-anak mereka, peningkatan kesadaran masyarakat, akses terhadap layanan kesehatan reproduksi yang mudah, pendekatan yang bersifat positif, dan penciptaan lingkungan yang mendukung bagi remaja. Dalam menghadapi tantangan ini, perlu ada kerja sama antara pemerintah, keluarga, sekolah, masyarakat, dan individu untuk memberikan remaja pemahaman dan keterampilan yang mereka butuhkan untuk membuat keputusan yang bijak dan menjalani kehidupan yang sehat. Dengan pendekatan holistik ini, diharapkan dapat mengurangi pergaulan bebas di kalangan remaja dan melindungi generasi muda dari konsekuensi yang merugikan.

Authors: Dalimunthe Nikmah , Irawan Ryan
Published: April 2024

Jurnal ini mengkaji dampak dari revolusi industry 4.0 yaitu berupa pemanfaatan inovasi kekuatan otak (kecerdasan berbasis komputer) buatan manusia di bidang industri di Indonesia. Inovasi intelijen buatan manusia dapat meningkatkan produktivitas di beberapa bidang kerja, namun juga dapat menggantikan beberapa posisi. Meskipun kecerdasan berbasis komputer membuka pintu-pintu baru, misalnya pergantian peristiwa dan dukungan terhadap inovasi-inovasi ini, penting juga untuk menyesuaikan kemampuan manusia untuk memanfaatkan pintu-pintu terbuka ini sebaik-baiknya dan mengurangi dampak pengangguran. Studi ini memberikan gambaran tentang berbagai bidang modern yang telah menerapkan inovasi kecerdasan berbasis komputer dalam penciptaan dan siklus fungsionalnya. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa meskipun penerimaan inovasi intelijen berbasis komputer meningkatkan produktivitas, terdapat perubahan penting dalam permintaan keahlian bagi angkatan kerja. Posisi-posisi rutin akan lebih sering tergantikan, sementara pekerjaan-pekerjaan yang membutuhkan daya cipta, kemampuan ilmiah, dan komunikasi antarmanusia akan lebih sering berkembang. Dalam situasi unik ini, pentingnya pelatihan ulang tenaga kerja dan strategi yang membantu variasi terhadap inovasi baru merupakan isu utama dalam menjaga kelangsungan pekerjaan di Indonesia.

Published: April 2024

Pendapatan pemerintah selain pajak merupakan salah satu sumber penerimaan negara. Untuk mencapai tujuan negara yang dituangkan dalam UUD 1945, pemerintah menyelenggarakan urusan pemerintahan dan pembangunan negara. Penerimaan Negara Bukan Pajak (PNBP) merupakan salah satu penyumbang pendapatan nasional yang sangat penting. Selain penerimaan negara lainnya, PNBP juga menjadi penopang keuangan negara.. Sayangnya, informasi mengenai PNBP masih sebatas pencatatan hasil dan informasi pendukung untuk mencapai tujuan tersebut. Situasi ini membuat  PNBP sulit dipahami di kalangan masyarakat. Dengan begitu luasnya cakupan Penerimaan Negara Bukan Pajak, yang banyak disorot hanya sebatas skor dan proses terjadinya gol saja. Secara keseluruhan, pendapatan negara bukan pajak memiliki peran yang penting dalam mendukung keuangan negara dan pertumbuhan ekonomi. Dengan pengelolaan yang baik dan penggunaan yang tepat, pendapatan ini dapat memberikan manfaat jangka panjang bagi pemerintah dan masyarakat secara keseluruhan.
Analisis Elemen-Elemen Penting dalam Asuransi Berdasarkan Undang-Undang No. 40 Tahun 2014
Authors: Kansil Christine S. T. , Sulistio Felicia Amanda
Published: April 2024

Asuransi tidak dapat dilepaskan dan dipisahkan dari kehidupan masyarakat, karena terdapatnya risiko-risiko yang mungkin terjadi dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Asuransi adalah perjanjian hukum yang mengikat dua pihak yaitu pihak penanggung dan pihak tertanggung. Dalam asuransi, pihak penanggung memastikan pertanggungan keuangan dari kerugian yang mungkin dialami pihak tertanggung dalam keadaan tertentu. Di dalam Pasal 1 angka 1 Undang-Undang No.40 Tahun 2014 berisi tentang “asuransi adalah perjanjian antara dua pihak, yaitu perusahaan asuransi dan pemegang polis, yang menjadi dasar bagi penerimaan premi oleh perusahaan asuransi dan pemegang polis yang menjadi dasar bagi penerimaan premi oleh perusahaan asuransi sebagai imbalan”. Menurut Otoritas Jasa Keuangan (OJK), asuransi merupakan perjanjian di antara perusahaan asuransi dengan pemegang polis. Adanya peran Otoritas Jasa Keuangan (OJK) untuk melindungi para pemegang polis atau nasabah asuransi agar terjamin keberlangsungan selama kedua belah pihak, peran OJK didukung dalam Bab XIII Undang-Undang Nomor 40 Tahun 2014. Jika pihak Otoritas Jasa Keuangan (OJK) dan pihak asuransi memberikan perlindungan hukum kepada pemegang polis dengan sebaik-baiknya, maka meminimalisir terjadinya sebuah sengketa.

Background. Differential diagnosis of neuromuscular diseases is one of the most difficult areas in neurology. Molecular genetic research in these patients is of particular importance. The article presents a clinical case of 5q spinal muscular atrophy type III (Kugelberg – Welander disease), confirmed by molecular genetic testing. Description of the clinical case. The article presents the clinical observation of a patient with an initial diagnosis of Erb – Roth myopathy. A genetic study was carried out. The analysis of the presence of exon 7 of the SMN1/SMN2 genes showed the absence of a signal corresponding to exon 7 of the SMN1 gene. A search for deletions in the SMN1 gene showed the homozygous deletion of exons 7–8 of the SMN1 gene in the proband. Homozygous deletion of exons 7–8 of the SMN1 gene causes 5q proximal spinal muscular atrophy. As a result of determining the num-ber of copies of the SMN1 and SMN2 genes, 0 copies of exons 7–8 of the SMN1 gene and 4 copies of exons 7–8 of the SMN2 gene were registered, which confirms the diagnosis of 5q spinal muscular atrophy type III. Conclusion. Adult patients suffering from neuromuscular diseases are recommended to undergo confirmatory DNA diagnostics to prescribe pathogenetic treatment, which increases their chances of survival. In young people with a clinical diagnosis of neuromuscular disease, genetic testing is required to clarify the diagnosis and further treatment tactics.

Published: April 2024

Sustainable mangrove management plays a pivotal role in advancing various sustainable development goals (SDGs). These encompass poverty and hunger eradication, fostering livelihoods and economic growth, countering the impacts of climate change, and protecting biodiversity. To investigate this matter, our study employed participatory rural appraisal (PRA) and focus group discussion (FGD) techniques. The study engaged with local government officials, fishermen, farmers, non-governmental organizations, women leaders, community leaders, and the general public actively involved in mangrove forest regions. The purposive sampling method ensured a representative sample. A comprehensive analysis was conducted, integrating SWOT analysis and the analytical hierarchy process (AHP). The findings revealed several key strategies: promoting the development of the potential of economically and sustainably valuable mangrove ecosystems through environmentally friendly planting and harvesting; empowering communities through farmers, fishermen, and women’s groups to generate household-scale mangrove-based industries; providing all necessary facilities and infrastructure for mangrove ecotourism visitors; expanding the role of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in improving community awareness and knowledge on the management of mangroves; and providing training to increase the diversification of mangrove economic products.
The Inclusion of Bitcoin and Other Cryptocurrencies in Investors’ Portfolios
Authors: Lamothe-López Prosper , Lamothe-Fernández Prosper , Rodríguez-Valencia Leslie
Published: April 2024

Cryptocurrencies have become an attractive asset class for all types of investors. A relevant question is whether their inclusion in portfolios improves their risk-return output. In this chapter, we conduct an empirical study of the effect of the inclusion of Bitcoin and Ethereum in the portfolio of a European investor. Additionally, we analyze the results of previous studies on this question under other assumptions. The empirical data are overwhelming regarding the attractiveness of Bitcoin and by extension other cryptocurrencies as an asset class. The important question is whether this appeal is temporary and will eventually disappear so investors do not have to worry about this new asset class. In the chapter we discuss this issue.
Perspective Chapter: Approximate Kalman Filter Using M-Robust Estimate Dynamic Stochastic Approximation with Parallel Adaptation of Unknown Noise Statistics by Huber’s M-Robust Parameter Estimator
Authors: Kovačević Branko , Banjac Zoran , Unkašević Tomislav
Published: April 2024

The problem of designing a feasible adaptive M-robustified Kalman filter in a case of a thick-tailed Gaussian environment, characterized by impulsive noise-inducing observation and innovation outliers, and/or errors in mathematical model-inducing structural outliers, has been considered. Firstly, the time-varying criterion is used to generate a family of dynamic stochastic approximation algorithms. The M-robust estimate stochastic approximation is derived by minimizing the minimum variance criterion, the estimates of the latter being combined with the one-step minimum mean square error prediction to design M-robust estimate Kalman filter. Finally, the latter is combined with the Huber moving window M-robust parameter estimator of the unknown noises statistics, in parallel with the M-robust state estimation to design an adaptive M-robust estimate Kalman filter. Simulated maneuvering target tracking scenario revealed that the proposed adaptive M-robust estimate-based Kalman filter improves significantly the target estimation and tracking quality, being effective in suppressing multiple outliers with contamination degrees less than thirty percent. Moreover, the achieved improvement comes with additional computational efforts. However, these efforts are usually not significant enough to prevent real-time application.
Kalman Filtering Applied to Investment Portfolio Management
Authors: J. Hoffman Alwyn
Published: April 2024

Arbitrage is an approach to portfolio composition that times the selection of investment instruments based on deviations between price and true value, exploiting the expected movement of price toward true value. Pairs trading is an early form of statistical arbitrage, exploiting temporary deviations from equilibrium for instruments that tend to move together. To extend the potential investment, universe statistical arbitrage was extended to include several co-integrated instruments that display mean reverting model errors. A weakness of these methods is the possible breakdown of the observed relationships when the model error becomes a random walk, resulting in trading losses. Partial co-integration addresses this limitation by allowing for model errors that include both random walk and mean-reverting components. As both the mean-reverting and random walk components are non-observable, a Kalman filter approach is employed to estimate these system states. Partial co-integration is shown to outperform market returns and normal co-integration. Higher returns are observed during bear cycles, making it an attractive strategy to combine with bull market strategies. It is furthermore illustrated how partial co-integration can be further improved using convolutional neural networks to predict breakdowns in mean reversion and reinforcement learning to optimize the levels for entering and exiting trades.
Neuropsychiatric morbidities in non-cardiac surgical patients related to perioperative anaesthesiologic and intensive care
Authors: Kietaibl Clemens
Published: April 2024

This book chapter provides neuropsychiatric morbidities related to perioperative patient care including both surgeries under general or regional anaesthesia and postoperative intensive care. While detailed guidelines have been already developed for the perioperative care for patients with cardiac comorbidities, guidelines for patients with pre-existing neuropsychiatric morbidities are currently limited. In particular, these limitations may affect non-cardiac surgical and non-neurosurgical patients, which is why it seems important to develop treatment guidelines which are applicable to patients undergoing major general surgeries under general or regional anaesthesia including postoperative intensive care. Hence—although provided neuropsychiatric aspects and morbidities related to anaesthesiologic perioperative patient care are applicable to all surgical disciplines—the provided treatment recommendations primarily apply to patients undergoing general surgeries.
Molecular Hydrogen and Its Effect on Wound Healing and Tissue Regeneration
Authors: Yu. Artamonov Mikhail , W. LeBaron Tyler , A. Pyatakovich Felix , A. Minenko Inessa
Published: April 2024

Chronic, non-healing wounds represent a major clinical challenge with substantial economic burden. Impaired wound healing stems from excessive inflammation, infection, ischemia, and oxidative stress. Molecular hydrogen has recently emerged as a therapeutic medical gas with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective properties through selective free radical scavenging, activating antioxidant enzymes, reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines, and potentially modulating cell signaling. Arly preclinical evidence shows hydrogen therapy may promote wound healing through accelerated closure, decreased inflammation, and mitigated tissue injury. Initial small-scale human pilots and case reports demonstrate feasibility and apparent safety of administering hydrogen via inhalation, ingestion, topical application, or baths. However, rigorous clinical trials validating therapeutic efficacy are lacking. Further research should optimize delivery, dose, timing, and tissue bioavailability to translate promising preclinical findings into effective clinical hydrogen treatments for wound care. Definitive large-scale studies are critical next steps.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Universities studied safe ways to return to activities, which pointed out that the effective biosecurity measures were the use of masks, social distancing, personal hygiene, and monitoring programs by testing and isolation of contaminated individuals. Not only monitoring and testing itself but also the entire community orientation process is essential for the successful mitigation of SARS-CoV-2 infections. The aim of this study was the development of communication tools for monitoring SARS-CoV-2 by testing a Brazilian University community, during the gradual return to face-to-face activities, from May 2021 to December 2022. The tests were performed by RTqPCR, in a laboratory with biosafety level 2, using saliva samples self-collected, on dry cotton, in a dry collection tube, wrapped in a 70% isopropyl alcohol wipe, transported in an envelope with individual epidemiological and symptoms data, and maintained at room temperature until analysis. The results were delivered by a health professional by email and WhatsApp which was a humanized channel constituted to receive doubts and anxieties, as well as contact and guidance regarding the biosafety protocols adopted at the university, and health issues in general, which subsidized the monitoring by providing a rich and detailed collection of data.
In the Shadow of the Giant: Gun Violence in Latin America and the Caribbean
Authors: David Eller Jack
Published: April 2024

The United States dominates most policy debates and academic studies of gun violence, but this dominance overshadows the often much higher rate of firearm-related injury and death inflicted in its southern neighbors. This chapter explores guns and gun violence in Latin America and the Caribbean, where some countries experience war-level death rates from firearms despite considerably lower rates of gun ownership in those countries. The chapter presents data—which is unfortunately often scarce, incomplete, or dated—on the region as a whole and on specific countries, identifying trends but also distinct and important variation, both geographically and historically. This variation challenges simplistic explanations in terms of the region’s violent past or an enduring “culture of violence.” The discussion thus then turns to the elucidation of factors that influence the incidence of gun violence, from poverty, urbanization, gangs, and drug trafficking to concerns about weak states and personal security. Finally, the chapter shares some of the gun policies and regulations in the region, surveying the steps that countries have taken—and others like its great northern neighbor can take—to curtail the damage and loss of life attributed to guns.
NMDA Receptors in Health and Disease
Authors: Huang Yue-Qiao
Published: April 2024

NMDA receptors (NMDARs) are a subtype of ionotropic glutamate receptors that mediate excitatory neurotransmission and synaptic plasticity in the brain. NMDARs play important roles in various normal brain functions such as learning, memory, and cognition, but also contribute to the pathogenesis of several developmental, neurological, and psychiatric disorders. Alterations in NMDARs can result in either hypo- or hyperfunction of NMDARs, which can impair neuronal viability, synaptic efficacy, and network oscillations. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on the involvement of NMDA receptors in Alzheimer’s disease, autism spectrum disorder, epilepsy, and schizophrenia. We also highlight the potential therapeutic strategies that target NMDAR modulation and dysfunction in these disorders.

International Drug Repurposing Patent Landscaping, Part 1: Rare Diseases
Authors: Mucke Hermann
Published: April 2024

In this first installment of a series of papers on landscaping of drug repurposing patents we present an analysis in the context of rare diseases. Using the RepoScope drug repurposing database, developed as part of the REPO4EU Horizon Europe project, we identified 190 documents that were published through the international PCT patent system from 2010 to 2023. These documents claimed utility in a total of 98 rare diseases. We provide detailed tabulated summaries for two representative disease classes: lysosomal storage diseases and muscular dystrophies. High variability in active pharmaceutical ingredients indicated high levels of innovation. Seventy-five percent of rare disease drug repurposing patents were filed by small/medium pharmaceutical companies or universities, often university spin-offs. Big pharmaceutical companies show limited interest in this area, as reflected in their low representation. Approximately one-third of all patent disclosures came from the United States and the European Union. The EU demonstrated a stronger position in patenting for rare diseases than in general pharmaceutical patenting. Patentees from China, Korea, and Japan, who are notable in the general pharmaceutical field, showed limited interest in rare disease drug repurposing patents, in contrast to their publication record in this area.

O conceito de "proporção" em El Criticón de Gracián
Authors: Pugliesi Lucas Bento
Published: April 2024

Este artigo intenta explorar a partir de uma breve passagem da novela alegórica El Criticón o sentido do conceito de “proporção” e as consequências epistemológicas de seu uso para Baltasar Gracián. À luz das práticas retórico-poéticas em voga no período de elaboração da obra (1651), espera-se pormenorizar o sentido técnico que o conceito pode apresentar, desnudando uma radical crise epistêmica que implicou uma reavaliação crítica da possibilidade de se conhecer ao longo do século XVII. Assim, o percurso arqueológico visa recolocar o central conceito de “proporção” em seus vínculos como uma teoria do conhecimento, conforme se apresenta na Crisi II do volume 1 do Criticón, partindo de tratados de arte retórica coevos e então refletir sobre a viragem que a obra parece operar sobre a categoria.
