Pengantin Pesanan Pos (Mail Order Bride): Modus Operandi Human Trafficking di Indonesia
Authors: Lessy Zulkipli 
Published: April 2019

Marriage for some people is a sacred thing: it is a part of the important forms of worship of God. The sacredness, nevertheless, to some extent disappears when the marriage mainly becomes a trap that concludes with prostitution and slavery. This article examines mail-order bride as a form of human trafficking. Women in this kind of trafficking are primarily trafficked for prostitution industries. The mail,order bride arrangements occur in Indonesia and, also, in many countries in South Asia and Southeast Asia, including Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Vietnam, and Malaysia. This form of trafficking is more difficult to deal with because of its hidden schema: marriage is commonly considered an individual privacy wherein outsiders cannot easily interfere.

Optimization of the proposed hybrid denoising technique to overcome over-filtering issue
Authors: Kushwaha Sumit , Singh Rabindra Kumar 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
Image denoising has become a crucial task in medical ultrasound (US) imaging due to the presence of speckle or multiplicative noise and additive Gaussian noise. Recently, several denoising techniques such as adaptive wavelet thresholding & joint bilateral (AWT + JB) filter, adaptive fuzzy switching weighted mean (AFSWM) filter and median patch-based locally optimal Wiener (MPBLOW) filter have been proposed to remove the speckle noise. However, these denoising techniques were found to remove noise along with the essential parts of the actual image data which is known as over-filtering. Thereby, it reduces the accuracy of the recognition process. In this paper, a new hybrid filter technique is proposed by combining anisotropic diffusion (AD) with Butterworth band pass filter to overcome over-filtering of the image. In addition, the performance of the proposed hybrid filter and its design parameters are enhanced using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The simulation results show that the proposed filtering technique achieves a better denoising performance when compared with other filtering techniques in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), structural similarity index (SSIM) and edge preservation index (EPI). Moreover, the results validated that the proposed filtering technique using PSO achieves effective performance than using the harmony search algorithm (HSA) and other filtering techniques.

Published: April 2019

Abstract

Background
Diagnostic biomarkers for the detection of colorectal cancers (CRCs) are lacking. Recent studies have demonstrated that circulating long non-coding RNAs have the potential to serve as biomarkers for the detection of cancers. We analyzed the significance of lncRNAs 91H, PVT-1 and MEG3 in the detection of CRC.

Methods
We examined the expression levels of 13 candidate lncRNAs in the plasma of 18 CRC patients and 20 non-cancerous controls. Then, we validated our findings by determining the expression levels of six promising lncRNAs in CRC tissues and normal colorectal tissues. Finally, we evaluated the clinical relevance of lncRNAs 91H, PVT-1 and MEG3 in the plasma of 58 CRC patients and 56 non-cancerous controls.

Results
Our data revealed that the expression levels of lncRNAs 91H, PVT-1 and MEG3 were significantly higher in plasma samples from CRC patients than in those from non-cancerous controls. The combination of 91H, PVT-1 and MEG3 could discriminate CRC patients from non-cancerous controls with an area under the receiver-operating curve (AUC) of 0.877 at a cut-off value of 0.3816, with a sensitivity of 82.76% and 78.57% specificity. More importantly, the combination of lncRNAs shows more sensitivity in the detection of early-stage CRC than the combination of CEA and CA19-9, biomarkers currently used for CRC detection (p < 0.0001).

Conclusions
lncRNAs 91H, PVT-1 and MEG3 are promising diagnostic biomarkers for early-stage CRC.

摘要
20 世纪 90 年代，随着王朔的小说《过把瘾就死》的出版和由其改编的电视剧《过把瘾》的热播，流行构式 “X一把” 产生。这一构式中的 X 为非手部动作动词、形容词和名词，“把” 表示抽象的动作量，整体具有[+量度较强]的特征。当代汉语流行构式的出现不仅表现为对原构式的发展，而且还有理据性不太明显的全新创造；在扩散方面，以辐射式为主，速度也非常快，这些正是流行构式的当代特色之所在。
Stress wave evaluation for predicting the properties of thermally modified wood using neuro-fuzzy and neural network modeling
Authors: Nasir Vahid , Nourian Sepideh , Avramidis Stavros , Cool Julie 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
This study investigated using the stress wave method to predict the properties of thermally modified wood by means of an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and neural network (NN) modeling. The stress wave was detected using a pair of accelerometers and an acoustic emission (AE) sensor, and the effect of heat treatment (HT) on the physical and mechanical properties of wood as well as wave velocity and AE signal is discussed. The AE signal was processed in the time and time-frequency domains using wavelet analysis and different features were extracted for network training. The auto-associative NN is used as a dimensional reduction method to decrease the dimension of the extracted AE features and enhance the ANFIS performance. It was shown that while the stress wave velocity using the accelerometer did not result in an accurate model, the network performance significantly increased when trained with the AE features. The AE signal exhibited a significant correlation with wood treatment and porosity. The best ANFIS performance corresponded to predicting the wood swelling coefficient, equilibrium moisture content (EMC) and water absorption (WA), respectively. However, the AE signal did not seem suitable for predicting the wood density and hardness. The performance of ANFIS was compared with the “group method of data handling” (GMDH) NN. Both the ANFIS and GMDH networks showed higher accuracy than the multivariate linear regression (MVLR) model.
Mass spectrometry of membrane protein complexes
Authors: Bender Julian , Schmidt Carla 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
Membrane proteins are key players in the cell. Due to their hydrophobic nature they require solubilising agents such as detergents or membrane mimetics during purification and, consequently, are challenging targets in structural biology. In addition, their natural lipid environment is crucial for their structure and function further hampering their analysis. Alternative approaches are therefore required when the analysis by conventional techniques proves difficult. In this review, we highlight the broad application of mass spectrometry (MS) for the characterisation of membrane proteins and their interactions with lipids. We show that MS unambiguously identifies the protein and lipid components of membrane protein complexes, unravels their three-dimensional arrangements and further provides clues of protein-lipid interactions.

Authors: Yuvaraj Krishnamoorthy , Kumar Dinesh , Priyan Shanthosh , Subitha Lakshminarayanan , Tanmay Gokhale , Vaishnavi Sreenivasan 
Published: April 2019

Abstract

Background
The health of children and adolescents can be promoted through schools as they spend most of their time in school. The Health Promoting Schools (HPS) framework provides a set of policies to be followed in schools for improving the health status of school-going children and adolescents. The current study was done to assess this framework among schools in rural Puducherry.

Methods
Key informant interviews were done with the teachers under the six World Health Organisation (WHO) HPS framework domains to develop an observation checklist for the assessment of schools in the study area. After the survey, in-depth interviews were conducted as an approach to explore the existing health promotion activities, facilitating or hindering factors in the implementation of health promotion framework and suggestions for improving the same.

Results
A quantitative survey on nine schools showed that almost all the schools were lacking in domains such as health promotion policy, behaviour counselling and mental and social support. Physical education, facilities and policies for nutrition and community collaboration exist in only some of the schools. Qualitative interviews also showed similar findings and most of the teachers suggested to include training for general health emergencies and behaviour counselling.

Conclusion
The current study showed that most of the schools were lacking in almost all the domains under the HPS framework. Hence, stakeholders at all levels should be made aware of this framework and develop a strategy for uniform implementation of it in all the schools in the region.

Published: April 2019

Abstract
Participation of adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer in randomized clinical trials (RCTs) is necessary to advance treatments and psychosocial programs. Exploring AYAs experiences in an RCT will inform strategies to support recruitment and retention. A qualitative design was used to study the experiences of 13 AYAs in the Stories and Music for Adolescent and Young Adult Resilience during Transplant I (SMART I) trial. Key themes included: Weighing the Pros and Cons; Randomization Preferences; Completing Measures; and Worthwhile Experience. The experiences of AYAs during RCTs can bring insights that inform the design and management of AYA trials. Strategies include improving assent/consent processes, design of electronic interfaces and encouraging researcher flexibility.
Noticing without negotiation?: What L2 Spanish learners report hearing in peer-produced language
Authors: Peace Meghann M. 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
Peer interaction and corrective feedback are beneficial in promoting second language development (e. g. Lyster et al. 2013; Philp et al. 2014; Sato 2017; Sato and Lyster 2012). A prerequisite of providing feedback is that learners first be able to notice elements of their peers’ language. This study seeks to analyze the latter, examining what L2 Spanish learners report hearing in peer-produced language. Data came from notes taken during the task and a subsequent stimulated recall. Content was reported more than form, the verb phrase was noticed more than any other linguistic feature, and a portion of the learners’ comments consisted of mostly-accurate unsolicited feedback. The results may have been constrained by task specifics, assumed relative proficiency, and classroom experience. The formal study of a third language may have facilitated the learners’ ability to notice, even in the absence of attention-directing strategies. These results correspond with previous work in feedback and negotiation, but separating learner perceptions from interaction permitted a closer look at the first step involved in peer communication.
Ein astronomisch-astrologisches Gedicht des persischen Dichters Ḥusain Ḥakīm Ṯanāʾī Mašhadī auf der Berliner Indischen Weltkarte
Authors: Niewöhner Elke 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
One does not encounter short astronomical-astrological poems in Persian very frequently. One such poem, by the Persian-Indian poet Ṯanāʾī (d. 1587/8) is inscribed on the Indian world map in the Museum of Islamic Art in Berlin. This map probably originated in the sphere of the court of the ruler of Rajastan, Sawai Jai Singh II. (1700‒1743). The poem does not bear a relationship to the other inscriptions and paintings found on the map, and is known only from this map. It presupposes a significant degree of knowledge of astronomy and astrology on the reader’s part, especially since Ṯanāʾī had developed a style in India by means of which he was able to “pack longwinded ideas and multiple meanings into a succinct expression”. The poem reflects a world view that is based on the cosmology of Aristotle and the planetary theories of Ptolemy. In particular, it addresses the heavenly spheres, with the earth at their center, the system of astronomical coordinates, the course and the characteristics of the planets, including Sun and Moon, and a short characterization of the four elements and the twelve signs of the zodiac. This article provides a philological reading, translation, and line-by-line commentary of the poem.
Institutional Law and Development Governance: An Introduction
Authors: Dann Philipp 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
This paper argues that the intersection of international institutional law and “law-and-development” studies provides a rich field of themes that help to understand inequality and agency in the global order. It sketches a first overview of how this field could be understood and analysed, describing characteristics, principles and scholarly approaches to the field, some structural features (institutions and finances) as well as central mechanisms and instruments. Dealing with the distribution of power, finance and knowledge, it is an obvious object for a variety of scholarly approaches, in particular critical legal and public law scholarship.
Surface forces measurement for materials science
Authors: Kurihara Kazue 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
This article reviews the surface forces measurement as a novel tool for materials science. The history of the measurement is briefly described in the Introduction. The general overview covers specific features of the surface forces measurement as a tool for studying the solid-liquid interface, confined liquids and soft matter. This measurement is a powerful way for understanding interaction forces, and for characterizing (sometime unknown) phenomena at solid-liquid interfaces and soft complex matters. The surface force apparatus (SFA) we developed for opaque samples can study not only opaque samples in various media, but also electrochemical processes under various electrochemical conditions. Electrochemical SFA enables us to determine the distribution of counterions between strongly bound ones in the Stern layer and those diffused in the Gouy-Chapman layer. The shear measurement is another active area of the SFA research. We introduced a resonance method, i.e. the resonance shear measurement (RSM), that is used to study the effective viscosity and lubricity of confined liquids in their thickness from μm to contact. Advantages of these measurements are discussed by describing examples of each measurement. These studies demonstrate how the forces measurement is used for characterizing solid-liquid interfaces, confined liquids and reveal unknown phenomena. The readers will be introduced to the broad applications of the forces measurement in the materials science field.
Einfache Sozialsysteme
Authors: Luhmann Niklas 
Published: April 2019

Zusammenfassung
Systemtheoretische Analysen können auch auf einfache, situationsgebundene Interaktionen angewandt werden. Immer, wenn Anwesende einander wahrnehmen können, bilden sich Sozialsysteme besonderer Art, die sich durch angebbare Eigenarten der Selektion von Struktur und Verhalten unterscheiden von Gesellschaften und von organisierten Sozialsystemen. Die Grundannahmen der Systemtheorie - eine Komplexitätsdifferenz zwischen System und Umwelt und ein selektiver Aufbau system spezifischer Ordnungen - gelten auch hier. Die Besonderheiten liegen im gleichzeitigen Ablauf von Wahrnehmungsprozessen und thematisch konzentrierter verbaler Kommunikation, in der Verwendung der Interaktionsgeschichte als Struktur, in einem wenig differenzierten Umweltverhältnis, in der Benutzung moralischer Ebenen der Steuerung und Störungsabwehr und in geringen Ansätzen zu Abstraktionsleistungen und zur Systemreflexion, die vor allem dann ausgebildet werden, wenn es zu wiederholten Zusammenkünften kommt.
Delta Shock Wave in a Perfect Fluid Model with Zero Pressure
Authors: Pang Yicheng , Ge Jianjun , Hu Min , Shao Liuyang 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
The Riemann problem for a perfect fluid model with zero pressure is considered, where the external force is a given continuous function of time. All of exact solutions are given. In particular, a vacuum occurs in the solutions, although initial data stay far away from the vacuum. It is shown that a delta shock wave in which density and internal energy contain a Dirac delta function develops in the solutions. The position, velocity, and weights of the delta shock wave are presented explicitly. Moreover, all of the solutions are not self-similar because of the presence of the external force.

Published: April 2019

El objetivo de este trabajo es identificar las principales políticas y programas estatales en Latinoamérica para el fomento de la salud rural. Se utiliza como método el estudio transversal retrospectivo para determinar las principales leyes que han permitido el surgimiento de políticas y programas rurales para la promoción de la salud, dirigidos a pobladores de zonas rurales en Latinoamérica, con ello se comprenden las acciones que se han trabajado en el ámbito rural. La revisión de la literatura muestra que existen diversos programas que dan respuesta parcial a los problemas de salud existentes en las zonas rurales. Respecto a los programas de fomento rural en América Latina, la mayor parte son programas de lucha contra la pobreza, algunos de ellos tienen impacto en los indicadores sanitarios, sin embargo, existen programas que ya expiraron y para el caso de Colombia, es necesario tener más en cuenta las zonas rurales para dar mayor alcance en salud.
Descenso, transgresión y creación: el erotismo en la poesía de Raúl Gómez Jattin
Authors: Niño Arteaga Yesid 
Published: April 2019

Este artículo propone un acercamiento a la obra poética del colombiano Raúl Gómez Jattin a través de la crítica a los poemas “Veneno de serpiente cascabel” y “Elogio de los alucinógenos”, escritos en el periodo de 1983 a 1986. Bajo el intento de mostrar la multiplicidad de su poesía desde un acercamiento filosófico-literario que intente indagar en el decir poético y las connotaciones de erotismo, inmanencia y transgresión presentes en el mundo de la creación literaria. Puesto que la poesía de Raúl Gómez Jattin puede pensarse como descenso, posibilidad y desafío de indagar en la creación literaria, toda vez que puede propiciar elementos para comprender la manifestación de una transgresión interior que el poeta precisa inexcusable para la afirmación de la vida y del hecho literario.

The aim of this
study is to determine the vascular plant diversity of forest vegetation in Türkmendağ
and to reveal vegetation-environmental relationships. The sampling was done using the Braun-Blanquet method in 95 grids. Two
subplots were sampled in each grid. Plant
groups were determined by hierarchical classification clustering analysis. The
relations between plant groups and environmental variables were examined by
non-parametric test statistics. Alpha, beta and gamma (α, β, γ) values, which
are the species diversity indices of plant groups and sample areas were
calculated. The interrelationships among the diversity components (α, βw and
γ) of the sample areas, and the site factors were analysed by regression tree
method. The best regression tree model was built by tree layer, shrub layer,
slope, RI, limestone and altitude respectively. According to statistical
analysis, the same variables played dominant roles for the distribution of
plant groups. When we evaluate all three plant species diversity components
together, plant groups endowed with the highest species diversity are Group 1,
Group 2, Group 4 and Group 8.
