Legal Results of Tripartite Mediation Termination of Employment Without Including Employment Service Provider Companies
Get PDFIndustrial Relations Mediation, hereinafter referred to as mediation, is the settlement of rights disputes, disputes of interest, disputes concerning termination of employment, and disputes between trade unions / labor unions in only one company through deliberations mediated by one or more neutral mediatorsThe issues discussed are (1) How is the implementation of Industrial Relations Dispute Settlement through tripartite mediation at the Padang City Manpower and Industry Office? (2) What is the legal consequence of tripartite mediation due to Termination of Employment without involving workers' service providers?This writing was made in the form of normative juridical writing, coupled with a sociological juridical approach as a support. In principle, the implementation of tripartite mediation in the Settlement of Industrial Relations Disputes by the Department of Labor and Industry of the City of Padang has supported its functions as mandated by the Law. According to Minister of Manpower and Transmigration Regulation No.19 of 2012 in a Work Agreement on the Provision of Workers' Services, three) legal subjects, namely employer companies, worker service providers and workers / laborers. Exclusion of workers service providers
Application Criminal Chamber Formulation Number 6 in Circular of the Supreme Court No. 4 of 2016 concerning the Authority of the State Audit AgencyDeclares State Losses Case Study in the Corruption Court at the Padang District Court
Get PDFIn the formulation of the criminal chamber number 6 of the Supreme Court Circular Letter Number 4 of 2016 states that the authorized agency states that there is no state financial loss is the State Audit Agency while other agencies such as the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency or other institutions are still authorized to conduct audits and audits of state financial management but not authorized to declare a state financial loss. The Supreme Court Circular was not in line with the decision of the Constitutional Court Number 31 / PUU-X / 2012 dated October 8, 2012 which stated that both the Supreme Audit Agencyand the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency could calculate and declare state financial losses. Based on this, this study raises the problem, namely: First, How is the application of the Supreme Court Circular Letter Number 4 of 2016 (formulation of criminal chamber number 6) in the Corruption Court at the Padang District Court from 2016 to 2019. Second and What are the Judges' considerations in applying / not applying the Supreme Court Circular No. 4 of 2016. The research method used is the empirical juridical research method. Based on the results of research that has been done, the application of the criminal chamber formula number 6 in the Supreme Court Circular is not yet fully carried out. This can be seen from the case data submitted to the Corruption Criminal Court showing the low application of the Supreme Court Circular Letter Number 4 of 2016. From the number of cases that have been tried and decided during 2016 to 2019, there are only 16 cases of corruption that use experts from the Supreme Audit Agency. The amount is far less when compared to cases that use experts from the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency and other institutions that is 127 cases. This means that throughout 2016 until 2019, only as many as 11.11% of the total cases of 144 cases that apply the Criminal chamber formula number 6 of the Supreme Court Circular. Although the basis of authority of the Supreme Audit Agencyis clearly and firmly regulated in article 23E of the 1945 Constitution. The legal basis of the authority of the Supreme Audit Agencyis governed by regulations at the highest level. Unlike the basic authority of the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency which is only based on government regulations and regulations below, the position of the Supreme Audit Agencyis very strong. The reality is that in practice there is dualism in the application of the authorized institution in declaring state losses in the Corruption Court at the Padang District Court. In consideration, Judge's consideration in applying or not applying the Supreme Court Circular Letter is that the judge is not bound by the Supreme Court Circular and the judge himself can assess the existence of state financial losses
Extravascular lungwater (EVLW) in overweight patients: Correlation of extravascular lungwater index (ELWI) to oxygenation-parameters and its dependency on the indexation
No full textDer extravaskuläre Lungenwasserindex (ELWI) spielt eine herausragende Rolle im Rahmen des hämodynamischen Monitorings und gilt als ein Prädiktor für die Mortalität. ELWI wird mit Hilfe des Körpergewichts indiziert. Der stetige Anstieg an übergewichtigen Patienten wirft die Frage auf, ob durch die Verwendung von Korrekturformeln die Korrelation des ELWI mit Oxygenierungsmarkern verbessert werden kann. Dazu wurden in einer prospektiven Studie an 50 Patienten, von denen 15 einen BMI>30 kg/m2 aufwiesen, 696 Thermodilutionsmessungen (PiCCO, Pulsion) durchgeführt. Zusammenfassung: ELWI korreliert signifikant mit PaO2/FiO2 und dem Oxygenationsindex, wobei die höchste Korrelation für die Indizierung gemäß dem Predicted Bodyweight (PBW) erreicht wurde. Sowohl der Vorhersagewert für die Mortalität als auch Sensitivität und Spezifität für klinisch relevante Grenzwerte (ARDS: PaO2/FiO230 kg/m2. Conclusion: ELWI correlates significantly with PaO2/FiO2 and with oxygenation index, with the highest correlation using the predicted body weight (PBW) for indexation. Both, the predictive value of mortality and sensitivity/specificity for clinical relevant thresholds (ARDS: PaO2/FiO2<200mmHg) were improved using the PBW
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Predictive value of ELWI combined with sRAGE/esRAGE levels in the prognosis of critically ill patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome
No full textAbstract Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening condition. Accurate judgement of the disease progression is essential for controlling the condition in ARDS patients. We investigated whether changes in the level of serum sRAGE/esRAGE could predict the 28-day mortality of ICU patients with ARDS. A total of 83 ARDS patients in the ICU of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from January 2021 to June 2022 were consecutively enrolled in this study. Demographic data, primary diagnosis and comorbidities were obtained. Multiple scoring systems, real-time monitoring systems, and biological indicators were determined within 6 h of admission. The clinical parameters for survival status of the ARDS patients were identified by multivariate logistic regression. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was employed to verify the accuracy of the prognosis of the related parameters. The admission level of sRAGE was significantly higher in the nonsurvival group than in the survival group (p 0.05). Model C (esRAGE + sRAGE) was proven to have no significance because it had a predictive value similar to that of the serum levels of esRAGE (Z = 0.993, p = 0.351) or sRAGE (Z = 1.116, p = 0.265) alone. Subsequently, Model D (sRAGE + esRAGE + ELWI) showed the best 28-day mortality predictive value with a cut-off value of 0.426 (AUC 0.841; p < 0.001), and Model A (sRAGE + ELWI) had a cut-off value of 0.401 (AUC 0.820; p < 0.001), followed by sRAGE (AUC 0.704, p = 0.004), esRAGE (AUC 0.717, p = 0.002), and ELWI (AUC 0.637, p = 0.028). In addition, there was no statistically significant difference between Model A and Model D (Z = 0.966, p = 0.334). The admission level of sRAGE was higher in the nonsurvival group, while the serum esRAGE level showed the opposite trend. Model A and Model D could be used as reliable combined prediction models for predicting the 28-day mortality of ARDS patients
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
