Amendments to Law No. 16 of 2019 concerning changes to the provisions for the age limit of marriage, which were originally stipulated in the 1974 Law Article 7 paragraph 1 for women at least 16 years old and 19 years old for men to marry has now changed to 19 years for men. and women. The Office of Religious Affairs in Ponggok District has implemented a marriage age limit in accordance with Law No. 16 of 2019, which is 19 years for men and women, however the impact of this has resulted in an increase in potential partners who are still underage. This is influenced by the prospective couples who are already pregnant and some of them are sure to get married and have the blessing of their parents. The efforts made by
the Ponggok District KUA in minimizing early marriage in its working area are by providing insight into the consequences of early marriage and providing information on the latest Law on community social activities such as yasinan and tahlilan. The purpose of this study was to determine the role and efforts of the Office of Religious Affairs in Ponggok District in minimizing early marriage after the amendment of law No.16 of 2019. In this study the approach used was a qualitative research method. This study uses primary data, namely the interviewer meets directly with the source. Qualitative research is research that intends to understand the phenomena experienced by research subjects. From this research it is known that the KUA of Ponggok sub-district also plays an important role in minimizing early marriage, which is playing a role in administrative matters such as checking the requirements for a prospective partner to marry, if the age is not sufficient then the KUA will reject.

The Corona virus can cause disorders of the respiratory system, acute pneumonia and even cause death. This virus spreads very quickly and has spread to almost all countries, including Indonesia. Preventive efforts in the health protocol implemented by the community in breaking the chain of transmission of COVID 19 during the New Normal period, namely by getting used to using masks, washing hands with soap (handsanitanizer), maintaining distance (social distancing), staying away from crowds and avoiding traveling outside the area, especially the areas that have been declared as red zones. In Pulau Jambu Village, there is still low public awareness of compliance in implementing health protocols in the new normal era in preventing Covid-19. Many people still don't use masks in public places, don't pay attention to social distancing and still have low awareness of washing hands. Health promotion regarding the prevention of Covid-19 is carried out to increase public knowledge and awareness to decide the transmission of the Covid-19 virus. This activity starts from the preparation stage, implementation of activities. After the PKM was carried out on July 17 2020. The result was that there was an increase in public knowledge about how to prevent Covid 19. With this PKM activity it is hoped that the community can increase their awareness to improve health and prevent disease.

Electron collision with Ammonia and phosphine at wide range of energies
Authors: Yassee Ahlam , Basil Ahmed 
Published: February 2023

The NH3 and PH3 molecules achieve differential electron elastic scattering cross-sections for energies ranging from 15 eV to 500 eV for ammonia and from 5 to 500 eV for phosphine. Calculations are performed using partial waveforms describing the target molecule using a single Hartree-Fock Molecular Function Center. The potentials used include a constant part—numerically obtained from quantum computation in addition to subtle effects such as correlation, polarization, and potential exchange, results of this model clearly show the role of the exchange, as well as the contributions of correlation and polarization, especially at low scattering angles and incident energies. The differential cross-sections obtained were compared with a large amount of experimental data from the research, and good agreement was found. Throughout the scattering angles and power ranges examined here.

Research competence as the basis for the readiness of the future coach to carry out sports selection
Authors: Proskurin A. , Stadnichenko V. 
Published: February 2023

The article explores the peculiarities of the formation of scientific and research competence of future coaches as a factor of readiness for the implementation of effective sports selection. It is proven that the long-term process of physical education and sports training can be carried out successfully taking into consideration the age and individual characteristics of a person's development, the level of readiness, the specifics of the chosen sport, the characteristics of the physical qualities development and the formation of motor skills.
A rational system of selection and sports orientation makes it possible to identify the aptitudes and abilities of children and adolescents in a timely manner, to create favorable conditions for the fullest disclosure of their potential, to achieve spiritual and physical perfection, and on this basis to master the basics of sportsmanship. An objective assessment of the individual characteristics of young athletes is formed taking into account complex studies of children, adolescents, young men, and girls, since it does not have any criterion of sports prospects. Even such an integral indicator as a sports result cannot be of decisive importance in the process of selecting athletes, especially in relation to children and adolescents, in whom the process of body formation continues; morphological, functional, biomechanical, pedagogical, psychological indicators considered separately are insufficient for rational sports selection. Effective selection of children and adolescents for sports is possible only on the basis of a complex method of identifying inclinations (genetic predispositions) and abilities necessary for mastering the heights of sportsmanship.
A modern coach should become a specialist with research and prognostic activities, actualizing the formation of research competence in the system of professional training in institutions of higher education. The article formulates a working definition of the terms “research competence of the future coach” and “readiness for the implementation of sports selection.”

Background: Diffusion kurtosis imaging provides in vivo measurement of microstructural tissue characteristics and could help guide management of Parkinson’s disease. Objective: To investigate longitudinal diffusion kurtosis imaging changes on magnetic resonance imaging in the deep grey nuclei in people with early Parkinson’s disease over two years, and whether they correlate with disease progression. Methods: We conducted a longitudinal case-control study of early Parkinson’s disease. 262 people (Parkinson’s disease: n = 185, aged 67.5±9.1 years; 43% female; healthy controls: n = 77, aged 66.6±8.1 years; 53% female) underwent diffusion kurtosis imaging and clinical assessment at baseline and two-year timepoints. We automatically segmented five nuclei, comparing the mean kurtosis and other diffusion kurtosis imaging indices between groups and over time using repeated-measures analysis of variance, and Pearson correlation with the two-year change in Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale Part III. Results: At baseline, mean kurtosis was higher in Parkinson’s disease than controls in the substantia nigra, putamen, thalamus and globus pallidus when adjusting for age, sex, and levodopa equivalent daily dose ( p < 0.027). These differences grew over two years, with mean kurtosis increasing for the Parkinson’s disease group while remaining stable for the control group; evident in significant “group ×time” interaction effects for the putamen, thalamus and globus pallidus ([Formula: see text]= 0.08–0.11, p < 0.015). However, we did not detect significant correlations between increasing mean kurtosis and declining motor function in the Parkinson’s disease group. Conclusion: Diffusion kurtosis imaging of specific grey matter structures shows abnormal microstructure in PD at baseline and abnormal progression in PD over two years.
Deep learning image reconstruction for quality assessment of iodine concentration in computed tomography: A phantom study
Authors: Jeon Pil-Hyun , Lee Chang-Lae 
Published: February 2023

BACKGROUND: Recently, deep learning reconstruction (DLR) technology aiming to improve image quality with minimal radiation dose has been applied not only to pediatric scans, but also to computed tomography angiography (CTA). OBJECTIVE: To evaluate image quality characteristics of filtered back projection (FBP), hybrid iterative reconstruction [Adaptive Iterative Dose Reduction 3D (AIDR 3D)], and DLR (AiCE) using different iodine concentrations and scan parameters. METHODS: Phantoms with eight iodine concentrations (ranging from 1.2 to 25.9 mg/mL) located at the edge of a cylindrical water phantom with a diameter of 19 cm were scanned. Data were reconstructed with FBP, AIDR 3D, and AiCE using various scan parameters of tube current and voltage using a 320 row-detector CT scanner. Data obtained using different reconstruction techniques were quantitatively compared by analyzing Hounsfield units (HU), noise, and contrast-to-noise ratios (CNRs). RESULTS: HU values of FBP and AIDR 3D were constant even when the iodine concentration was changed, whereas AiCE showed the highest HU value when the iodine concentration was low, but the HU value reversed when the iodine concentration exceeded a certain value. In the AIDR 3D and AiCE, the noise decreased as the tube current increased, and the change in noise when the iodine concentration was inconsistent. AIDR 3D and AiCE yielded better noise reduction rates than with FBP at a low tube current. The noise reduction rate of AIDR 3D and AiCE compared to that of FBP showed characteristics ranging from 7% to 35%, and the noise reduction rate of AiCE compared to that of AIDR 3D ranged from 2.0% to 13.3%. CONCLUSIONS: The evaluated reconstruction techniques showed different image quality characteristics (HU value, noise, and CNR) according to dose and scan parameters, and users must consider these results and characteristics before performing patient scans.

Published: February 2023

In the investigation of corruption offenses, the most effective procedural form of using special knowledge is a forensic economic examination. However, the procedure for conducting forensic economic expertise in Ukraine is not without drawbacks, and when carried out within the framework of the investigation of specific corruption crimes is characterized by certain features. The purpose of the article is to generalize and systematize key features, as well as to identify weaknesses in the process of forensic economic examination in the investigation of corruption crimes in Ukraine.
In order to achieve the goal, the legislative interpretation of the concept of “corruption crime” has been investigated. On the basis of statistical information, indicators have been calculated and the dynamics and structure of recorded corruption criminal offenses in Ukraine in 2018–2022 have been analyzed. On the basis of analysis, systematization and generalization of normative and scientific sources the essence, process of emergence and development of the concept of forensic economic expertise has been investigated. The role and importance of forensic economic expertise in the investigation of corruption crimes has been substantiated. The list of basic documents, thorough examination of which by a forensic expert is the basis for detecting corruption, has been systematized. The features of forensic economic examination in the investigation of specific corruption offenses defined by the current legislation of Ukraine have been investigated. The procedure for appointing and conducting forensic economic expertise in Ukraine has been analyzed and its shortcomings and weaknesses have been identified.
Prospects for further research in this area are the study of foreign experience in conducting forensic economic examination in the investigation of corruption crimes, the development of practical recommendations for eliminating the identified shortcomings and improving the procedure for appointing and conducting forensic economic examinations in Ukraine. Purposeful, though gradual, movement in the direction of solving the problem of corruption in Ukraine is a guarantee of strengthening all spheres of public life.

BackgroundThe relationship between elevated serum uric acid (SUA) levels and cardiovascular outcomes after stent implantation remains uncertain. This study sought to evaluate the impact of SUA on 12-month cardiovascular outcomes after stent implantation.MethodsWe performed a retrospective study of patients who successfully underwent stent implantation and enrolled 3,222 patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) from a single center. SUA levels were measured before stent implantation. The patients were divided into six groups (&lt;4, 4–4.9, 5–5.9, 6–6.9, 7–7.9 and ≥ 8 mg/dL) at SUA intervals of 1.0 mg/dL. The incidence of cardiovascular outcomes in the six groups was monitored for 1 year after stent implantation and the hazard ratios were estimated. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for cardiovascular outcomes were estimated using a Cox proportional hazard regression analysis. The primary endpoint was all-cause death. The secondary endpoint was a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization, stent thrombosis and stroke. The follow-up duration was 12 months.ResultsOver the 12-month follow-up period, there were 101 all-cause deaths and 218 MACCE. After adjustment for several parameters, the group with SUA levels of more than or equal to 8 mg/dL had significantly higher hazard ratios in the incidence of all-cause death or MACCE. The group with &lt;4.0 mg/dL had significantly higher hazard ratios in all-cause death only in male patients. In contrast, there were no significant differences observed for cardiovascular outcomes in female patients.ConclusionsOur study identified a U-shaped association between SUA levels and cardiovascular outcomes during 12-month follow-up for males, but not for females. Further studies are warranted to clarify the sex differences between SUA levels and clinical outcomes.

ObjectiveThis study was performed to develop a murine model of elastase-induced proximal thoracic aortic aneurysms (PTAAs).MethodsThe ascending thoracic aorta and aortic arch of adult C57BL/6J male mice were exposed through a midline incision in the anterior neck, followed by peri-adventitial elastase or saline application. The maximal ascending thoracic aorta diameter was measured with high-resolution micro-ultrasound. Twenty-eight days after the operation, the aortas were harvested and analyzed by histopathological examination and qualitative polymerase chain reaction to determine the basic characteristics of the aneurysmal lesions.ResultsFourteen days after the operation, the dilation rate (mean ± standard error) in the 10-min elastase application group (n = 10, 71.44 ± 10.45%) or 5-min application group (n = 9, 42.67 ± 3.72%) were significantly higher than that in the saline application group (n = 9, 7.37 ± 0.94%, P &lt; 0.001 for both). Histopathological examination revealed aortic wall thickening, degradation of elastin fibers, loss of smooth muscle cells, more vasa vasorum, enhanced extracellular matrix degradation, augmented collagen synthesis, upregulated apoptosis and proliferation capacity of smooth muscle cells, and increased macrophages and CD4+ T cells infiltration in the PTAA lesions. Qualitative analyses indicated higher expression of the proinflammatory markers, matrix metalloproteinase-2 and -9 as well as Collagen III, Collagen I in the PTAAs than in the controls.ConclusionWe established a novel in vivo mouse model of PTAAs through a midline incision in the anterior neck by peri-adventitial application of elastase. This model may facilitate research into the pathogenesis of PTAA formation and the treatment strategy for this devastating disease.

BackgroundImplantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) are effective as a primary prevention measure of ventricular tachyarrhythmias in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and depressed left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). The implications of using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) instead of echocardiography (Echo) to assess LVEF prior to the indication of ICD in this setting are unknown.Materials and methodsWe evaluated 52 STEMI patients (56.6 ± 11 years, 88.5% male) treated with ICD in primary prevention who underwent echocardiography and CMR prior to ICD implantation. ICD implantation was indicated based on the presence of heart failure and depressed LVEF (≤ 35%) by echocardiography, CMR, or both. Prediction of ICD therapies (ICD-T) during follow-up by echocardiography and CMR before ICD implantation was assessed.ResultsCompared to echocardiography, LVEF was lower by cardiac CMR (30.2 ± 9% vs. 37.4 ± 7.6%, p &lt; 0.001). LVEF ≤ 35% was detected in 24 patients (46.2%) by Echo and in 42 (80.7%) by CMR. During a mean follow-up of 6.1 ± 4.2 years, 10 patients received appropriate ICD-T (3.16 ICD-T per 100 person-years): 5 direct shocks to treat very fast ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation, 3 effective antitachycardia pacing (ATP) for treatment of ventricular tachycardia, and 2 ineffective ATP followed by shock to treat ventricular tachycardia. Echo-LVEF ≤ 35% correctly predicted ICD-T in 4/10 (40%) patients and CMR-LVEF ≤ 35% in 10/10 (100%) patients. CMR-LVEF improved on Echo-LVEF for predicting ICD-T (area under the curve: 0.76 vs. 0.48, p = 0.04).ConclusionIn STEMI patients treated with ICD, assessment of LVEF by CMR outperforms Echo-LVEF to predict the subsequent use of appropriate ICD therapies.
