Anaemia is a public health problem that affect both the rich and poor, and it possess a serious challenge to the health care profession, consequently this research is therefore aim at investigating the anti - anaemic potentials of Tigernut (C. esculentus) extract administered to albino wistar rats exposed to Phenylhydrazine induced toxicity. Forty (40) male albino Wistar rats weighing between 180- 250g were used for this study. They were randomly divided into four (4) groups of ten (10) rats each. Control group received normal feed and drinking water. Extract group received 600mg/kg bw of aqueous extract of Tigernut orally, PHZ group received PHZ induction and PHZ + Extract group received PHZ induction + 600mg/kg bw of aqueous extract of Tigernut. The feeding regimens lasted for 4 weeks, after which blood samples were collected via cardiac puncture for estimation of different parameters. Results showed that ingestion of aqueous extract of C. esculentus was able to reverse the significant decrease in RBC (p<0.01), HB (p<0.001), PCV (p<0.001) and Fe+ (p<0.01) values occasion by PHZ induction, back to appreciable level. In conclusion ingestion of C. esculentus extract is capable of reversing the derogatory effect imposed on hemopoietic processes following PHZ induction. Since C. esculentus is cheap and readily available it can therefore be recommended for the management of anaemic condition pending the availability of a viable health facility.

The objectives of this research are to analyze and find legal weaknesses in the settlement of traffic accident cases using a restorative justice approach and how to reconstruct the legal settlement of traffic accident cases with a restorative justice approach. The method used in this study uses an empirical approach and a normative juridical approach with the paradigm used by the constructivism paradigm. The results of the research show that the Weakness of the law in the settlement of traffic accident cases is in the lack of integration of legal arrangements for the settlement of criminal cases in the criminal law system, especially in the Criminal Procedure Code according to the rules of each institution. As a result, arrangements for settling cases based on restorative justice have not been able to guarantee legal certainty Therefore the legal reconstruction of the settlement of traffic accident cases with a restorative justice approach proposed by the author can be done by revising the provisions of Article 230 and Article 235 of Law no. 22/2009 concerning LLAJ, so that light, moderate and severe traffic accident cases can be resolved based on restorative justice. In addition to this, for heavy traffic accidents that cause fatalities, the settlement of cases based on restorative justice must not abort the prosecution of cases as it involves fatalities and therefore it must be processed normally.

The aim of this research is to find and analyze the weaknesses of the judge's decision on the obscure lawsuit exception in Indonesia and how to reconstruct it based on justice value. This study uses the constructivism paradigm, the approach method is sociological research, the research specifications are analytical descriptive, the data used are primary data and secondary data, primary data is obtained by interview while secondary data is obtained by means of literature study, data analyzed qualitatively by using the Dignified Justice Theory, Legal System Theory, and Progressive Legal Theory. The results of the study show that the Weaknesses include weaknesses in legal substance, namely weaknesses in the provisions of Article 136 HIR. Weaknesses in Legal Culture are that positivism is still the mainstream of judges therefore the Panel of Judges often does not read and study cases together from the start and the Chairperson of the Panel of Judges as a senior judge is still decisive in making decisions, next, the weaknesses in the Legal Structure including the acceptance stage, where, after starting their career as a judge, they must submit themselves to the supervision of judges and structures outside the court. Therefore, the legal Reconstruction intended by the author is related to the values of Pancasila, as the Reconstruction of the Norm is an exception to the obscure lawsuit being considered and decided before the examination of the main case.

The objectives of this research are to analyze and find out the weaknesses in the legal construction of the authority to implement Deponering (the authority of the attorney general not to prosecute a case for policy reasons) in relation to the principle of opportunity by the prosecutor's office and how to reconstruct the law based on justice value. The method used in this study uses an empirical approach and a normative juridical approach with the paradigm used by the constructivism paradigm. The results of the research show that the Weaknesses in the legal construction of the implementation of Deponaring by the Attorney General in relation to the application of the opportunity principle, one of which, is the basis for consideration of the public interest which does not yet have clear and measurable indicators. In addition, minimal supervision of the implementation of the Attorney General's authority. In order to tackle this, a legal reconstruction of the authority to implement Deponaring in relation to the principle of opportunity based on the value of justice is needed to determine the indicators and conditions for the Attorney General in making decisions overriding cases in Government Regulations, so that the implementation of the Attorney General's sole authority does not escape supervision and fulfills justice for society. As a counterweight to Deponering authority, the public prosecutor must be given the authority to stop prosecution based on restorative justice which is based on the discretionary authority of the Attorney General's Office as a response to the development of society that wants misdemeanor crimes and crimes with low economic value not to be continued with the prosecution process, by prioritizing the principle of restorative justice. Termination of prosecution based on restorative justice by the public prosecutor, which in practice is very beneficial for the wider community, especially for victims and perpetrators of crimes.

This research article presents a numerical simulation of the extensive severe cyclonic storm Fani and its impact along the coast of Bangladesh, which made landfall in the coastal region of Odisha, India, on May 3, 2019. A semi-implicit finite difference method in Cartesian coordinates was employed in this study to solve vertically integrated shallow water equations. The approach allowed for effective forecasting of the storm Fani's impact on the region of choice. Our considered physical domain is discretized with high-resolution gird to cover all the big and small offshore islands. The model predicted water levels for a total of sixteen coastal stations of the Bay of Bengal along the coast of Bangladesh (from 2 May to 03 May 2019, at 3-h interval). Simulated water levels are found closely co-related to the reported data. The simulation results demonstrate that the semi-implicit finite difference method is an effective tool for simulating the storm surge and flooding caused by any severe cyclonic storm. The study also shows that the storm surge and flooding caused by Fani were significant, with a maximum surge height of over 5 meters in some areas. The simulated results provide insights into the spatial and temporal evolution of the storm surge and flooding, which can be useful for designing and implementing appropriate disaster management strategies in the affected regions. Overall, this research article contributes to the scientific understanding of the behavior of severe cyclonic storms and the associated storm surge and flooding, and provides a valuable tool for policymakers and stakeholders to develop and implement effective disaster management strategies in cyclone vulnerable coastal regions.
