The European Union as a Community of Values: the Importance of the Dialogue between the Court of Justice of the European Union and National Courts
Authors: Jarukaitis Irmantas 
Published: August 2024

The article deals with the gradual development of the EU as a community of values and the role of the CJEU and national courts in upholding and developing these values. The analysis of judicial practice reveals the crucial role performed by national courts and the CJEU in protecting the fundamental rights and the principle of the rule of law both at the EU and national levels. On the one hand, „upstream“, national courts act as guardians of the fundamental values at the EU level by referring questions to the CJEU concerning the interpretation of the Charter and the legality of the secondary EU legislation vis-à-vis the Charter, thus contributing to the functioning of a decentralised constitutional control of EU legislation and stabilising the EU level of governance. On the other hand, “downstream”, recent developments of the CJEU jurisprudence interpreting Article 19 of the Treaty on the European Union confirm the thesis that the CJEU treats national courts as European courts that are cornerstones of the decentralised EU judicial system. The CJEU practice shows that differently from Article 47 of the Charter, Article 19 of the TEU is perceived not as providing protection of individual rights but rather as a systemic and permanent guarantee of judicial independence as a part of a fundamental value of the Union, thus aiming at stabilisation of national judicial systems and assuring the effectiveness of protection of the rights stemming from EU law at the national level.

Abstrak: Manusia adalah makhluk yang memiliki kelebihan dan kekurangan. Puncak kelebihannya bisa lebih mulia dari malaikat, dan titik terendah kekurangannya lebih hina dari binatang. Tetapi dibalik kelebihan dan kekurangannya itu, manusia adalah makhluk yang penuh misteri. Tidaklah mengherankan jika kemudian muncul begitu banyak kajian, penelitian ataupun pemikiran tentang manusia dalam segala aspeknya. Salah satunya adalah tentang jiwa. Jiwa merupakan salah satu topik yang sangat menarik perhatian para ilmuwan barat. Tidak sedikit dari mereka yang menghabiskan waktunya untuk mengkaji masalah ini. namun, kajian mereka tidak dilandasi dengan agama. Berbeda dengan ilmuwan muslim yang menjadikan agama sebagai pijakannya. Salah seorang ilmuwan muslim yang membahas tentang jiwa manusia adalah Ibn Sîna. Ibn Sîna mengemukakan bahwa jiwa manusia terdiri dari tiga bagian, diantaranya yaitu: jiwa tumbuh-tumbuhan (al-nafs al-nabatiyah), jiwa binatang (al-nafs al-hayawaniyah), dan jiwa manusia (al-nafs al-insaniyah). Jiwa tumbuh-tumbuhan memiliki tiga fakultas, yaitu daya makan (al-quwwah al-ghadziyah), daya tumbuh (al-quwwah al-munammiyah), dan daya reproduksi (al-quwwah al-muwallidah). Jiwa binatang memiliki dua daya, yaitu daya penggerak (al-quwwah al-muharrikah), dan daya persepsi (al-quwwah al-mudrikah). Jiwa manusia mempunyai daya berfikir yang disebut dengan al-aql. Dan manusia juga memiliki tiga sekaligus jiwa tersebut. Abstract:Humans are beings that have strengths and weaknesses. The peak of its virtues can be more noble than that of angels, and the lowest point of its shortcomings can be more despicable than that of animals. But behind its strengths and weaknesses, humans are creatures full of mystery. It is not surprising that so many studies, research, or thoughts about humans in all their aspects have emerged. One of them is about the soul. The soul is one of the topics that has captured the attention of Western scientists. Many of them spend their time studying this issue. However, their study is not based on religion. Unlike Muslim scientists who use religion as their foundation. One of the Muslim scholars who discussed the human soul is Ibn Sîna. Ibn Sîna proposed that the human soul consists of three parts, namely: the vegetative soul (al-nafs al-nabatiyah), the animal soul (al-nafs al-hayawaniyah), and the human soul (al-nafs al-insaniyah). The vegetative soul has three faculties, which are the nutritive power (al-quwwah al-ghadziyah), the growth power (al-quwwah al-munammiyah), and the reproductive power (al-quwwah al-muwallidah). The animal soul has two powers, which are the motive power (al-quwwah al-muharrikah) and the perceptive power. (al-quwwah al-mudrikah). The human soul has a thinking capacity known as al-aql. And humans also possess three of these souls simultaneously.

Published: August 2024

The presence of regional autonomy gives regional governments the authority to regulate their regional opinions. However, at the same time, regional development often results in a lack of ability of local governments to manage their budgets properly. This research then aims to look at how local governments manage their budgets to optimize Regional Revenue. This research was carried out using a descriptive qualitative approach. This research then found that regional budget management is the key to optimizing revenue. In overcoming central government dependency, efficient budget management is needed. Through monitoring, planning, and evaluation, the budget is maximized. A performance-based approach strengthens resource allocation and project assessment. Increasing regional income occurs through taxation, levies, community participation, and transparency. With good management, community involvement, and a focus on results, local governments achieve fiscal independence and local prosperity.

Published: August 2024

AbstractThe quality of the air void system is essential for the frost resistance of concrete. Therefore, it is crucial to assess the quality of the air void system in hardened concrete in an appropriate way. In this study, the shape from focus (SFF) method is applied to identify the focused image of each point on the polished surface of hardened concrete and thereby acquire the depth information of the entire surface. The performance of various focus measure operators and window sizes is evaluated. Thereafter, the selected focus measure operator and window size are applied for the SFF analysis of all samples. Based on the obtained depth map, the voids are identified, and the void parameters of the hardened concrete are determined by an automated procedure. The main advantage of the SFF method is that it is possible to carry out an automated air void analysis without contrast enhancement.

Published: August 2024

Summary
This paper addresses Bayesian-based data-driven site characterization (DDSC) methods for estimating soil parameters used in tophole casing design. Different models are applied to data sets of piezocone tests (CPTu) conducted in Brazilian fields, and their performance is compared to some characterization techniques currently used by the oil and gas industry. Regression models are crucial for soil characterization for tophole casing design. Data-driven methods consist of a powerful tool for this purpose, allowing handling uncertainties originating from soil variability. This paper addresses regression models devoted to sparse data, namely geotechnical lasso (Glasso) and Gaussian process regression (GPR) from a Bayesian perspective considering prior knowledge of site information. This approach provides statistical information on soil parameters like undrained shear strength, supporting structural analysis of wellhead systems, and conductor/surface casing strings. Data sets were collected from in-situ CPTu tests conducted in the Campos basins in eastern Brazil. The first case study addressed primary CPTu data, including cone tip resistance, friction sleeves, and total pore pressure, to characterize undrained shear resistance as a random variable. In this context, the parameter was modeled using Phoon’s modified Bartlett test to calculate sample sizes that ensure stationarity. This approach presented relevant results in assessing the probability of failure for conductor and surface casing design based on the operator’s internal design criteria. In these applications, more robust techniques were used to improve data characterization. Glasso and GPR models are used to model parameter tendencies and evaluate the random data. These methods differ in prior probability density functions adopted—Laplace and Gaussian, respectively—and they are compared with regression techniques widely used in design practice. All the models were trained to estimate undrained shear resistance. Preliminary results confirm that the technique improves the characterization of soil strata and undrained shear strength, with a beneficial effect on the analysis of offshore tophole structural design cases. Some metrics, such as mean absolute error (MAE) and root mean squared error (RMSE), indicate that GPR outperforms other methods. This is an innovative methodology applied in real-case scenarios with data ceded from the partner operator. The formulation evaluates uncertainties associated with the spatial heterogeneity of the material, continuously improving robustness with each new project data. This enables a better understanding of soil behavior in specific oil fields and can assist the decision-making process in well design, improving operational safety. Furthermore, the results of the statistical modeling support reliability-based analysis to deliver probability-based indicators for well integrity design.

Published: August 2024

Abstract

Neonatal seizures require urgent treatment but can go undetected without expert EEG monitoring. We develop and validate a seizure-detection model using retrospective EEG data from 332 neonates. A convolutional neural network was developed on over 50k hours (n=202) of annotated single-channel EEG containing 12k seizure events. This model was validated on two independent multi-reviewer datasets (n=51 and n=79).

Increasing data and model size improves performance: Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC) and Pearson's correlation (r) increased by up to 50% (15%) with data (model) scaling. The largest model (21m parameters) achieves state-of-the-art on an open-access dataset (MCC=0.764, r=0.824, and AUC=0.982). This model also attains expert-level performance on both validation sets, a first in this field, with no significant difference in inter-rater agreement when the model replaces an expert (Δκ < -0.095, p>0.05).

Abstract

Background
Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women. Early detection is crucial for improving treatment outcomes and reducing costs. Systematic screening programs using mammography pose significant challenges in developing countries due to high-costs and skill shortages. Thermalytix is an affordable, portable, artificial intelligence (AI) based test that has demonstrated good clinical efficacy and economic feasibility for population-screening. This paper presents insights and data from implementing Thermalytix test on over 100,000 women in India.
Methods
Thermalytix was deployed at 150 clinical sites and at 1000 + screening camps outside hospitals. All women who took the test with informed consent, in either of these modes, were included to form a diverse cohort of 104,411 women from various socioeconomic backgrounds across 20 Indian-states. Thermalytix AI algorithms analyzed thermal patterns and automatically triaged women into three risk categories (red-yellow-green). Test Positivity Rate (TPR), assuming Red as test-positive, was computed for different cohorts.
Results
Thermalytix showed a TPR of 6.64% across the entire population. TPR in symptomatic women was 4x higher than in asymptomatic women. Women tested in hospitals exhibited a 1.6x higher TPR than those tested in screening camps. Highest TPR was observed in women aged above 60, followed by those aged 41–50 with complaints and those aged 31–40 without complaints. Postmenopausal women had a higher TPR than premenopausal women. Prior breast cancer led to a higher TPR than those without.
Conclusion
This study demonstrated the feasibility of implementing Thermalytix for community screening in resource-constrained countries, and the findings correlated with known risk-factors.

Published: August 2024

Abstract

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that causes the death of brain cells and is the leading cause of dementia. The disease is characterized by the progressive accumulation of plaques and neurofibrillary tangles formed by beta-amyloid peptides (Aβ), which lead to neuronal death and decline in cognition and memory. To mitigate this process, different mechanisms and molecular targets have been explored for the prospecting of new drugs, and computational techniques play an important role in this screening process. In this work, a combination of QSAR models was trained to facilitate the screening of molecules against different targets of AD. In addition, a multi-target screening of FDA-approved drugs was performed using the QSAR models and molecular docking, and an analysis of the hit molecules revealed the potential of this approach in the screening and repurposing of molecules for AD drug discovery.
