Rapid technological developments have implications for the development of online transportation modes, one of which is Taxi-bike online. Many online Taxi-bike transportation drivers generally carry out professions with the status of a partnership relationship pattern with the company as the partnership is regulated in a civil law agreement. The pattern of relationships that occur between online Taxi-bike drivers and companies that are not based on a working relationship has an impact on the invalidity of Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Employment, one of which is related to the absence of legal certainty over guaranteed work safety protection for online Taxi-bike drivers. This research provides an understanding of how online Taxi-bike drivers stand with companies and how to guarantee legal protection for work safety for online Taxi-bike drivers according to regulations in Indonesia. The research method in this research is normative juridical with the approach of library materials or secondary data. The results of this study indicate that first, the Taxi-bike company as a partnership-based transportation company has not provided guaranteed protection for the recognition of legal status for its working partners, in this case, the online Taxi-bike driver. Second, there is no regulation on work safety guarantees for online Taxi-bike drivers that are based on partnerships or have not been regulated in laws and rules, so this reason is used as the basis for online transportation companies not to provide compensation or compensation when an accident occurs to online Taxi-bike drivers.

Objective: To evaluate the outcomes of infrapopliteal revascularization for diabetic hemodialysis patients with ischemic diabetic foot. Methods: From 2017 to 2021, 250 patients with diabetic foot identified as stage C (ischemia) or D (ischemia and infection) of Texas Wound Classification underwent successful infrapopliteal surgical and endovascular revascularization at the vascular surgery department of Moulay Ismail Military Hospital in Meknes. The outcomes were retrospectively compared in hemodialyzed patients (HD group: 48 patients), and not hemodialyzed patients (not HD group: 202 patients) during the same period. Results: Outcomes were expressed as healing, major amputation, revascularization patency and mortality rate. Hemodialysis was a negative predictor of healing and a positive predictor of major amputation. Outcomes for HD and not HD groups were respectively: healing (62.5 vs 82 %), major amputation (37.5 vs 18 %). There was no significant difference in revascularization primary patency between the two groups (70 vs 73.6%). The mortality rate was higher in the HD group than in the not HD group (21 vs 10%). Conclusions: Our study shows that ischemic diabetic foot associated with hemodialysis have a bad prognosis with a higher risk of major amputation and death. Infrapopliteal revascularization with infection control should be performed to enhance the rate of limb salvage in this risk group.

This study examined the basic measurement theories (classical test and item response theories) and psychometric properties of the adopted 2016 - 2017 National Examination Council (NECO) mathematics examination instruments in Calabar Education Zone of Cross River State, Nigeria. The research design adopted for the study was the instrumentation design. The stratified random sampling technique was used to select a sample of one thousand three hundred and fifty one (1,351) students across the local government area in the zone. Two instruments, namely the 2016 and 2017 NECO mathematics multiple choice tests were used for data collection. A trial test of the instruments on 60 comparable non sample group showed reliability (KR20) indices of .91 and .94 for the 2016 and 2017 versions respectively. Difficulty indices ranged between .20 and .85 as well as .10 and .91 respectively for the two years. Discrimination indices were .42<d< 1.00 and .31< d< .89 respectively for the two versions. The final administration yielded data that were collated and analyzed using 2-way repeated measure ANOVA and chi-square statistics. Statistical analysis, showed that the item difficulty and item location, item discrimination indices and ‘a’ parameter and the option distraction powers of the 2016 and 2017 NECO mathematics multiple choice tests were significantly different. It was concluded that significant difference exist between psychometric properties using the different measurement theories. Based on these findings, it was recommended that NECO should use the item response theory (IRT) in assessment for its relative merit over the CTT among others.

Background: In the world of football, the success or failure of a match is not only the responsibility of the players, manager, or coach but is more dominantly determined by the leadership of the referee. Objective: The purpose of the present study is to find out the anxiety level between state and national level football referees. Method: Total hundred football referees (fifty state level and fifty national levels) were selected from Calcutta Football League (CFL) in West Bengal, B.C. Roy Trophy at Una in Himachal Pradesh, Santosh Trophy at Nayveli in Tamil Nadu, B.C. Roy Trophy at Bhubaneswar in Odisha, West Zone National Football Tournament at Jodhpur in Rajasthan, U-16 I-League Tournament and U-19 I-League Tournament for the study. Sports anxiety was considered as variables and it was measured by sports competitive anxiety test (SCAT) questionnaire. Data was collected with proper instruction from the referees just prior to the sixty minutes of the competition. The age of football referees ranged between 22 to 30 years. Result: The obtained results show that significant difference is found in sports anxiety (p=0.04) between state level and national level football referees. It is also found that the anxiety of state level referees (19.28±3.04) was higher than the national level referees (15.72±2.52). Conclusion: The study concluded that state level referees have a higher level of anxiety in comparison to national level referees. The fact behind that may be as national-level referees are more experienced and they have greater opportunity to conduct more matches than state level referees and assessors’ assessment of each national level matches help them to grow more confidence and managing capacity of stress and anxiety at pre, during and post-match circumstances.

Introduction: Beta-thalassemia is thought to be the most common genetic blood condition in the world. Different kinds of Beta-thalassemia major have been shown to have lipid problems. The goal of this study is to evaluate the lipid profiles of beta-thalassemia major patients. The aim of the study was to study the association of dyslipidemia with serum ferritin levels and amount of blood transfusion among Beta thalassemia patients. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Medicine and Hematology, Sir Salimullah Medical College Hospital, Bangladesh. The study duration was 6 months, from January 2017 to July 2017. The targeted study sample size was 96, but due to the short duration of the study, a total of 40 patients were selected as the study population. Result: Hematological tests showed the mean hemoglobin level in the thalassemia group was 7.23 gm/dl, with a standard deviation of 1.23. Mean MCV, MCH, and MCHC in the thalassaemic group were significantly lower at 69.83 fl (SD8.34), 23.10 PGM (SD3.57), and 28.03 % (SD 2.58) compared to the normal range (P-value <0.001 in all parameters). Beta-thalassemia major patients had significantly lower high-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) (p<0.001) compared to the normal range. However, serum triglycerides levels of Beta-thalassemia patients (211.5±31.54 mg/dl) were significantly higher [p-value < 0.001].But total cholesterol level was not statically significant among participants ( P-value 0.428). High levels of serum triglycerides were associated with high ferritin levels and an increased amount of blood transfusion. Low levels of HDL-C and LDL-C were associated with a high level of ferritin and an increased amount of blood transfusion. Conclusion: Our study revealed that there was a significant difference in various lipid levels between patients with beta-thalassemia major and normal values which may help physicians to design the therapeutic module for the treatment of such patients.

The problem raised in this study is why the regulation of rehabilitation for children who use narcotics has not been based on the value of justice. To find answers to these problems, the study uses a sociological juridical research type where the method of qualitative analysis is used on the data obtained, and presented in the form of written words supported by quantitative and qualitative data to then draw an inductive conclusion. The Result Shows that According to Law Number 35 of 2009, there are two types of rehabilitation, namely medical rehabilitation and social rehabilitation. The judge's consideration in conducting trial examinations in narcotics cases committed by children is to impose narcotics crimes by rehabilitating the accused. The judge stated that in the Juvenile Criminal Justice System Act, children who have problems with the law are called Juvenile. The judge stated that even though in the indictment of the public prosecutor, however, the judge considered that in giving criminal penalties to narcotics users and child perpetrators, by taking into account the main principle for the child, namely the best interest of the child in imposing sanctions, it is very necessary to reconstruct the rehabilitation law for children as drug addicts fairly.

The problem raised in this study is what are the weaknesses in the implementation of controlled delivery in the investigation of narcotics crimes in realizing the protection of human rights and How to reconstruct it in order to realize the protection of human rights. To find answers to these problems, the study uses a sociological juridical research type where The method of qualitative analysis is used on the data obtained, and presented in the form of written words supported by quantitative and qualitative data to then draw an inductive conclusion. The Result Shows that the weakness referred to is contained in the definition of Controlled Delivery which is still ambiguous and the usefulness of Controlled Delivery is as stated in Law number 35 of 2009 article 45 (j) and article 49 where even though it is used to uncover drug trafficking networks, controlled delivery make investigators pretend to be drug dealers so that those caught are drug users who are the last link in the drug network (end users) so that the information obtained is certainly not as much as when investigators pretend to be buyers (Undercover Buying) even though the view is that drug users are perpetrators need to be reviewed because their condition is not as “perpetrators”, but as “victims” who need a helping hand in order to recover, not punishment. So that the reconstruction referred to in Article 49 of Law Number 35 of 2009 through the addition of the word "while still respecting and protecting the rights of victims of drug abuse as victims" can mean that the rights of victims of drug abuse are recognized and not treated as "Perpetrators" anymore.
