Children involved in criminal acts, the first thing that should not be forgotten is to see their position as children with all their particular characteristics and characteristics. Thus, their orientation is based on the concept of child protection in their handling process so that this will rest on the concept of prosperity children and children's interests. Providing protection and a sense of justice given that children must get protection, then in violations committed by the child still and must be considered and considered the background and causes of violations committed by the child so that the child will not lose hope to look at the future. Legal problems seem to be one of the phenomena that have never subsided in the life of society, nation, and state. As the phenomenon of legal problems increases, legal studies are also increasing, which aim to explore various problems from the perspective of existing law and legislation. Penal punishment is not merely revenge but an aim to influence human behavior by legal rules. Child protection is all efforts made to create conditions so that each child can exercise his rights and obligations for the development and growth of children in a reasonable manner both physically, mentally and socially. Child protection is an embodiment of the existence of justice in a society. Thus, protection of children is cultivated in various fields of life and state of society.

This cross-sectional community-based study was conducted with the objective of determining the knowledge and awareness of diabetes mellitus among the general population in a metropolitan city in order to plan intervention programmes for early case detection. The respondents were apparently healthy individuals aged 18+ years, of either gender, who were residents of Thane city, Maharashtra, India. The prospective respondents were explained about the study and informed consent was obtained before they were interviewed using a pre-tested, formatted and validated questionnaire containing 20 questions (2 marks per question). A total of 255 persons (males=106; 41.57%; females=149; 58.43%) participated in the study. The gender difference in age of participants was not significant (Z=0.503; p=0.614). Significant gender differences were observed among separated and divorced respondents (Z=2.459; p=0.014); graduates (Z=2.421; p=0.015); retired persons (Z=3.896; p<0.0001) and those employed in the private sector (Z=3.308; p<0.0001). Female respondents obtained significantly higher scores in four out of 20 questions, while the gender differences were not significant for scores in the remaining 16 questions. The findings reveal moderate level of diabetes awareness. Large-scale awareness programmes would be necessary after identifying knowledge gaps

The labial mucosa is an unusual site for basal cell carcinoma. Only a few cases have been reported in the literature. We present a case of basal cell carcinoma wich involved the vermilion of the lower lip. A 77-year-old man presented with an ulcer taking half of his lower lip and extending to the skin evolving for two years. There were no cervical lymph nodes. Diagnosis of infiltrative basal cell carcinoma was made by histological study which showed a tumoral proliferation starting from epidermal basal layers infiltrating the hypodermis with perineural infiltration. The pathogenesis of basal cell carcinoma of the vermilion lip is not clear. While basal cell carcinoma originates from pilar structures, the lack of pilosebaceous follicles in the normal lip mucosa has led to several hypotheses to explain the pathogenesis of mucosal basal cell carcinoma. Our case shows a very rare location of basal cell carcinoma. The ulcer that originally started in the vermilon, has extended and reached the mucosa and the skin areas. Therefore, basal cell carcinoma should be considered among the differential diagnosis of ulcerative lesions of the lip

The present study was undertaken to investigate the variations of anthropometric indices, inflammatory oxidative stress and anti-oxidant markers in subjects with metabolic syndrome (MetS) compared to their age & sex-matched controls, and to evaluate the correlations, if any of the anthropometric indices with the pro-oxidant state in subjects with MetS. One hundred and fifty-three subjects with MetS and one hundred and fifty-five controls were recruited for the study according to the NCEP ATP III (National cholesterol education program – Adult treatment panel III) criteria for MetS. Anthropometric characteristics of all subjects were recorded using clinical Proforma. Blood samples were collected after taking informed written consent from subjects. Plasma glucose, lipid profile analysis, malondialdehyde (MDA), total antioxidant capacity and C reactive protein (CRP) was estimated in all blood samples. This study clearly indicates that obesity measured by anthropometric measurements including BMI and WC were increased in MetS patients as compared to controls. Inflammatory marker CRP was found to be significantly high in patients with metabolic syndrome. The oxidative stress as assessed by serum MDA was significantly higher, whereas total antioxidant capacity (TAOC) was lower in MetS patients than that of age & sex matched controls

Painting is recognized as the mainstay for preventing corrosion of structural components or systems and decorating
objects. Paint is a heterogeneous liquid solution of many solid components that is daily needed to be blended in large
quantities to requisite homogeneities and properties in many industries and units before application to ensure
consistencies in the desired paintwork qualities and reliable effective corrosion protection at economical costs. Efficient
and fast mixing of paint is done by mechanical agitation. Mechanical agitation also removes the drudgery of human folk
in blending large quantities of paint and reduces exposure time of personnel to some paints that are toxic. No universal
system till now has been found valid for agitating paint and other fluid quantities in different container sizes and shapes.
For optimal functionality, efficiency, productivity, reliability, and economy agitators are usually not mass-produced and
kept in storage but designed and developed to meet individual customer’s requirements. Design specifications of agitators
for mixing paint can be different from those of other liquid solutions for the same mixing quantities due to distinctiveness
of paint properties such as viscosity, density, segmentation level, and environmental susceptibility. In this paper, some
previous revolutionary works on means of agitating fluids are reviewed to provide a compendium of basic concepts that
need to be understood for meaningful advancements in designs of mechanical agitators to optimally meet various paint
mixing requirements with given equipment sizes and shapes. The review showed that the required mixing quantity per
unit time, shape and size of paint container, impeller size and rotational speed, shaft strength, powering system, agitation
time, and, structural anchorage system for the container are the basic design parameters for the agitators. These
parameters along with basic considerations such as: ease of operation, operational efficiency and integrity, reduction of
agitation time, cost reduction, reliability, durability, safety, reduction of paint exposure time to environment, ease of paint
pouring in and out of containers and, easy means of loading heavy paint containers in place and unloading them were
seen to be crucial in advancing the agitator designs.

The prevalence of Polycystic Ovarian syndrome is very common nowadays. In this syndrome there is marked decrease in the female characters with irregular or no menstruation, excess hairs on face, chest, stomach, thumbs, or toes, decrease in breast size, hair loss, acne, depression, weight gain, pelvic pain and infertility. It affects mainly the females of reproductive age. If left untreated, may result in infertility and even uterine cancer. Very little is known about status of lipid profile in this syndrome so the objective of the study was to compare lipid Profile in women suffering from polycystic ovarian syndrome and healthy women. The study comprised of 200 women of same reproductive age. Out of which 100 were healthy women and 100 were women suffering from polycystic ovarian syndrome. Lipid Profile was tested on auto analyzer by available commercial kits. Student t test were applied to determine difference between the two. SPSS software 20.0 was used for statistical analysis. We found the women suffering from polycystic ovarian syndrome had dyslipidemia as comparison to healthy women. This shows that dyslipidemia can be a risk factor for developing polycystic ovarian syndrome

Plastic synthetic is widely used in various purposes, ranging from household to industrial purposes. However, in spite of
its superior, conventional plastic has several weaknesses, which the plastic waste can pollute the environment. It is
important reason for replacing the use of conventional plastic with degradable plastics. Biodegradable plastic is a plastic
that can be decomposed naturally by bacteria. The biodegradable plastic can be made from agricultural products such as
cellulose and starch. Biodegradable plastic in this report was made from starch of purple taro tuber (Xanthosoma
sagittifolium) and chitosan. The materials was perform using variables i.e. temperature, times and ratio of chitosan and
starch. The mechanical and physical properties of biodegradable plastic were investigated by tensile strength testing,
plastic degradation test by soaking in EM4 (Effective Microorganism) solution, and Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR)
was used to identify the chemical structure in biodegradable plastics. The specimens of the research were made by using
starch of purple taro tuber with a weight of 10 g, 100 ml of 0.5% acetic acid, 2.5 ml of glycerin, a ratio of starch and
chitosan of 0.075, with a temperature of 80 ºC, stirring speed of 300 rpm and a processing time of 75 minute. The result
of the research showed a tensile strength of 2.32 MPa with elongation of 44.62%. The biodegradable plastic from the
starch of purple taro tuber and chitosan can be degraded with the of EM4 solution until of 35 days. The investigated by
using FTIR showed chemical structures of OH phenolic alcohols, C=O carbonyls, and CO esters, that can be easy
decomposed. Thus, the plastic from the starch of purple taro tuber is environmentally friendly plastic.

This study sought to determine the effect of senior secondary school students’ prior knowledge of instructional objectives on their achievement in chemistry. Three research questions and three null hypotheses guided the study. The design employed was a pretest posttest experimental design. The population was four thousand six hundred and ninety-three (4393) SS2 students who were offering chemistry in all the secondary schools in Awgu Educational Zone. Chemistry achievement test (CAT) developed by the researcher was used to collect relevant data from a sample of 184 senior sec. students selected from single sex schools in Awgu Educational Zone. The CAT was face and content validated by experts in educational measurement and evaluation and chemistry education. Reliability coefficient of 0.80 was obtained for CAT using Kuder Richardson formula -20. Mean and standard deviation scores were used to test the three null hypotheses at an alpha level of 0.05. the study revealed that students taught with prior knowledge of instructional objectives (experimental group or Wipkoiob) achieved better results than students taught without prior knowledge of instructional objective (control group or Wopkoiob) and males achieved better than the females. There is no significant interaction of gender and strategy on students’ chemistry mean achievement. The researcher therefore recommended that chemistry teachers in Nigeria should present instructional objectives in their lesson plans to their students ahead of instruction.

Pain is the most common complaint from patients undergoing prostate biopsy. With the increase in patients requiring prostate biopsy following massive screening for prostate cancer, more men would therefore complain about pain. Observing that the perception of pain varies amongst patients, we set out to find the influence of these factors on pain experienced during prostate biopsy. We also sought the incidence of complications which may arise from this procedure. A total of 132 patients scheduled for transrectal prostate biopsy were randomly assigned to two groups. All patients had 20 mls of 2% lidocaine gel administered per rectum10 minutes before transrectal ultrasound probe insertion. The severity of pain during the procedure was assessed using the 10-point numerical rating scale. A weak positive correlation was found between the prostate volume and level of pain perceived by patients (r = 0.084) & (r = 0.339). Pre-biopsy anxiety was found to have no influence on pain. There was moderate correlation (r=0.497) between pain and age of participants during needle insertion, whereas a weak correlation(r=0.173) was found between the latter and pain perceived during probe insertion. Age was found to be the only predictor of level of pain on regression analysis (P = 0.016).Post biopsy, 25% of patients had haematuria while 12% complained of rectal bleeding. Haematospermia and fever were seen in 5.5% and 0.8% of patients respectively. Increasing age was found to influence pain perceived during transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy. Haematuria and rectal bleeding were found to be the most common complications following TRUS-guided biopsy of the prostate
