Published: April 2024

Abstract
The inclusion of "living law" in Article 2 of the Criminal Code (KUHPN) has sparked a national debate concerning the static character of criminal law against the dynamic essence of living law. This study aims to investigate the growth of the concept of living law and the material legality principle following its development in the KUHPN. It is conducted as normative legal research and essentially consists of evaluating relevant documents and legislation. The results indicate that the KUHPN have the potential to alter the nature of living law, which was originally dynamic and encompassed both criminal and civil realms, into a static framework largely focused on criminal issues. The expansion allows for a softer application of the criterion of legality in criminal law enforcement, as punishment is regulated not only by laws but also by area rules.

Abstrak
Akomodasi “hukum yang hidup” pada Pasal 2 Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana (KUHPN) menimbulkan perdebatan nasional karena hukum pidana bersifat statis sedangkan hukum yang hidup bersifat dinamis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggali pergeseran konsep hukum yang hidup dalam masyarakat dan dampak dari perluasan asas legalitas materiil terhadap paradigma asas legalitas setelah diatur dalam KUHPN. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian hukum normatif yang fokus melakukan studi pustaka terhadap literatur dan peraturan perundang-undangan yang relevan. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa akomodasi hukum yang hidup pada Pasal 2 KUHPN berpotensi menggeser maknanya yang semula bersifat dinamis dan tidak membedakan ranah pidana dan perdata menjadi bersifat statis serta cenderung menjadi ranah pidana saja. Perluasan asas legalitas di dalam KUHPN tidak hanya berimplikasi pada eksistensi hukum yang hidup tetapi juga berdampak pada penegakan hukum pidana. Perluasan itu memberikan ruang bagi pelunakan penerapan asas legalitas dalam penegakan hukum pidana karena pemidanaan tidak hanya diatur di dalam undang-undang tetapi juga diatur dalam peraturan daerah.

Abstract

The antifeedant, larvicidal and histological effects of Solanum torvum leaf extracts were investigated against Spodoptera litura. The study found that the S. torvum ethyl acetate leaf extract showed a significant antifeedant effect against S. litura of (86.16%) at 5%. Ethyl acetate extract showed a larvicidal activity against S. litura of 88.21% and the LC50 value was 2.05%. Exposure of larvae to ethyl acetate leaf extract resulted in significant histological damage, particularly affecting epithelial, goblet and digestive cells. The molecular docking observation of insect chitin protein was noted in campesterin resulting in -7.8 kcal/mole energy. The results suggest that the inclusion of these plant extracts in integrated pest management approaches can promote sustainable and environmentally friendly pest control methods in agriculture.

Abstract

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a common endocrine disorder in reproductive-age women, often results in infertility due to anovulation, increased immature oocytes, and reduced oocyte quality. Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART), specifically in vitro maturation (IVM), offers potential solutions. This study explores in vitro oocyte maturation using a novel microfluidic device. We investigate the impact of Follicular fluid meiosis-activating sterol (FF-MAS) under dynamic and static conditions to enhance oocyte competence. 406 immature germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes from PCOS patients were divided into five groups. Group 1: GV oocytes cultured in standard medium. Group 2: same as Group 1 In addition 10 µM FF-MAS supplement. Group 3 experienced dynamic microfluidic culture for 24 hours. Groups 4 and 5 also utilized dynamic microfluidic culture, but in Group 4, FF-MAS was provided to the oocytes for the first 2 hours, and in Group 5, it was provided for the entire 24 h. Groups 4 and 5 showed significantly improved maturation, fertilization, and high-quality embryo development. Gene expression analysis revealed differences in BRCA1, TP53, PADI6, and TLE6 genes. Ultrastructural features indicated cortical granule distribution and cytoplasmic observations in mature oocytes. Dynamic microfluidic culture and FF-MAS supplementation enhance developmental competency compared to static conditions.

Published: April 2024

Abstract

Heat transport is facilitated by thermal bridges, which raises air conditioning demands. The influence of thermal bridges and their detrimental effects on building energy efficiency are the main scope of this study. This study intends to identify and present the most effective design for curtain wall facades located in hot arid climate to reduce thermal bridge and enhance energy consumption. Based on previous studies, the five main variables affecting the percentage of thermal bridges in building facades are window wall ratio, glazing type, frame U-value, thermal Break, window wall ratio and system joint thermal insulation. In this study five scenarios using different curtain wall facades design for the five parameters were applied and simulated using design builder software for an existing office building located in Egypt as an example for hot arid climate. Results showed that scenario four is the most effective design for curtain wall facade which reduced thermal bridge up to 50% in hot arid climate. The design of case scenario four consists of double low-e glazing, frame made of aluminum with a thermal break, and 40% is the window to wall ratio, which reduced the energy consumption by 19247.96 kwh/month.

Abstract

Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) uses high voltages and helium or argon feed gases to generate and deliver atmospheric reactive oxygen or nitrogen species. Over the past decade, there has been an increasing number of successful demonstrations of CAP in oncology with anti-tumor effects demonstrated both in vitro and in vivo, including in glioma. Chordomas remain one of the most difficult-to-treat of the skull base tumors. The best chance of survival and cure to date is with radical surgical resection, followed by adjuvant radiation therapy. Oftentimes, tumor infiltration into functionally critical, or difficult-to-access areas, precludes radical resection. CAP has been shown to increase sensitivity to chemoradiation and could therefore be a useful tool in improving chordoma recurrence rates as an intraoperative adjuvant therapy to the current standard of care. To date, there are no studies in the literature examining the effect of CAP on chordomas. We treated UM-Chor1 chordoma cells with a plasma jet and measured cell viability and intracellular ROS production. Our experiments show a dose-dependent increase in intracellular ROS and cell death with direct CAP exposure in vitro. Further studies are needed to better determine the mechanisms of cell death and factors contributing to chordoma sensitivity to CAP.
