Peran Lembaga Perlindungan Saksi Dan Korban Dalam Memberikan Perlindungan Hukum Terhadap Korban Tindak Pidana Kekerasan Seksual

Abstract: A criminal act is an act that is prohibited by a rule of law, which prohibition is accompanied by threats or sanctions in the form of certain crimes, for anyone who violates the prohibition. It can also be said that a criminal act is an act which is prohibited by a rule of law and is punishable by punishment, as long as it is kept in mind that the prohibition is aimed at an act, namely a situation or an event caused by a person’s behavior, while the criminal threat is directed at a person who causes a crime. that incident. Between prohibition and punishment there is a close relationship, because between the incident and the person who caused the incident there is also a close relationship, which cannot be separated from the others. Sexual intercourse is any act that ranges from sexual harassment to the act of forcing someone to have sexual intercourse without the victim’s consent or when the victim does not want it, and/or having sexual intercourse in ways that are unnatural or not liked by the victim and distances him from his sexual needs.

Witnesses and Victims are entitled to: obtain protection for personal safety, family. Keywords: Crime, Sexual Violence, Witnes

The study of slurry recirculation to increase biogas productivity from Jatropha curcas Linn. capsule husk in two phase digestion

The purpose of this study was to obtain the best slurry recirculation treatment for two-phase digester system which produced the highest biogas production in the DH-JcL substrate. The study was conducted in the laboratory using 750 mL and 2 L of plasticdigester and biofilter plastic as growth immobilize. The slurry recirculation treatment consisted of the recirculation of 50 %slurry to methanogenesis digester, 50 % slurry to hydrolysis digester, and 25 % slurry to hydrolysis digester combined with 25 % to methanogenesis digester. The highest daily biogas production was obtained from the recirculation of 50 % slurry to hydrolysis digester. However, the best slurry recirculation treatment, which was more stable in longer period, was 50 % slurry to methanogenesis digester

Optimization of Concentration and EM4 Augmentation for Improving Bio-Gas Productivity From Jatropha Curcas Linn Capsule Husk

Most literature suggests that two-phase digestion is more efficient than single-phase. The series of two-phase digestion studies have been conducted from 2011 to 2013 at the research farm of PT Bumimas Ekapersada, West Java, Indonesia. This paper reports on a research on optimation of concentration and augmentation of EM-4 (effective microorganism-4), a local commercial decomposer, as efforts to stabilize a biogas technology which made ​​from husk capsules of Jatropha curcas Linn (DH-JcL). The studies of increasing organic loading rate (OLR) for the two-phase digestion was conducted to improve efficiency. The concentration variable studied was 1: 8 (1 part DH-JCL and 8 parts water), compared to 1: 12 as a control. The augmentation treatment is the addition of EM-4 by 5% (v/v). It was also examined the augmentation of F2-EM4 (150 times duplication of EM-4) due to cost consideration. The studies were conducted in the laboratory which using a liter and two liters of glass digester and glass wool as immobilized growth. The results of this study support the previous studies: the optimum concentration was 1: 8, EM-4 was able to increase biogas production in two-phase digestion, yet biogas production decrease at single-phase. F2-EM4's ability to support production of biogas were equivalent to that of EM-4

Direct correction of haemoglobin E β-thalassaemia using base editors

Haemoglobin E (HbE) β-thalassaemia causes approximately 50% of all severe thalassaemia worldwide; equating to around 30,000 births per year. HbE β-thalassaemia is due to a point mutation in codon 26 of the human HBB gene on one allele (GAG; glutamatic acid → AAG; lysine, E26K), and any mutation causing severe β-thalassaemia on the other. When inherited together in compound heterozygosity these mutations can cause a severe thalassaemic phenotype. However, if only one allele is mutated individuals are carriers for the respective mutation and have an asymptomatic phenotype (β-thalassaemia trait). Here we describe a base editing strategy which corrects the HbE mutation either to wildtype (WT) or a normal variant haemoglobin (E26G) known as Hb Aubenas and thereby recreates the asymptomatic trait phenotype. We have achieved editing efficiencies in excess of 90% in primary human CD34 + cells. We demonstrate editing of long-term repopulating haematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSCs) using serial xenotransplantation in NSG mice. We have profiled the off-target effects using a combination of circularization for in vitro reporting of cleavage effects by sequencing (CIRCLE-seq) and deep targeted capture and have developed machine-learning based methods to predict functional effects of candidate off-target mutations

Habituation based synaptic plasticity and organismic learning in a quantum perovskite

A central characteristic of living beings is the ability to learn from and respond to their environment leading to habit formation and decision making. This behavior, known as habituation, is universal among all forms of life with a central nervous system, and is also observed in single-cell organisms that do not possess a brain. Here, we report the discovery of habituation-based plasticity utilizing a perovskite quantum system by dynamical modulation of electron localization. Microscopic mechanisms and pathways that enable this organismic collective charge-lattice interaction are elucidated by first-principles theory, synchrotron investigations, ab initio molecular dynamics simulations, and in situ environmental breathing studies. We implement a learning algorithm inspired by the conductance relaxation behavior of perovskites that naturally incorporates habituation, and demonstrate learning to forget: A key feature of animal and human brains. Incorporating this elementary skill in learning boosts the capability of neural computing in a sequential, dynamic environment.United States.

How Do I Look? Body Image Perceptions among University Students from England and Denmark

This study examined differences in body image perception between university students in two European countries, United Kingdom and Denmark. A total of 816 British and 548 Danish university students participated in a cross-sectional survey. A self-administered questionnaire assessed socio-demographic information, body image perception (as “too thin”, “just right” or “too fat”), and the association of related factors with body image perception (nutrition behaviour, social support, perceived stressors and quality of life). The proportions of students who perceived themselves as “too thin”, “just right”, or “too fat” were 8.6%, 37.7%, and 53.7% respectively. Multi-factorial logistic regression analysis showed that students who perceived themselves as “too fat” were more likely to be from the British university, to be females, to be older than 30 years, to report stress due to their financial situation and were less likely to have a high quality of life. The findings highlight the need for interventions with focus on healthy food choices whilst acknowledging financial stressors and quality of life

Translating discoveries in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder genomics to an outpatient child and adolescent psychiatric cohort

Objective Genomic discoveries should be investigated in generalizable child psychiatric samples to justify and inform studies that will evaluate their use for specific clinical purposes. In youth consecutively referred for neuropsychiatric evaluation, we examined: 1) the convergent and discriminant validity of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) polygenic risk scores (PRS) in relation to DSM-based ADHD phenotypes; 2) the association of ADHD PRS with phenotypes beyond ADHD that share its liability and have implications for outcome; and 3) the extent to which youth with high ADHD PRS manifest a distinctive clinical profile. Method Participants were 433 youth, ages 7 to 18, from the Longitudinal Study of Genetic Influences on Cognition. We used logistic/linear regression and mixed effects models to examine associations with ADHD-related polygenic variation from the largest ADHD GWAS to date. We replicated key findings in 5140 adult patients from a local health system biobank. Results Among referred youth, ADHD PRS associated with ADHD diagnoses, cross-diagnostic ADHD symptoms and academic impairment (OR’s ∼1.4; R2‘s ∼2-3%) as well as cross-diagnostic variation in aggression and working memory. In adults, ADHD PRS associated with ADHD and phenotypes beyond the condition that have public health implications. Finally, youth with a high ADHD polygenic burden showed a more severe clinical profile than those with low burden (beta’s∼.2). Conclusion Among child and adolescent outpatients, ADHD polygenic risk associated with ADHD and related phenotypes as well as clinical severity. Results extend the scientific foundation for studies of ADHD polygenic risk in the clinical setting and highlight directions for further research
