“…Results: After the data analysis and coding process, the conceptual model of causes and consequences of pregnancy in adolescents emerged, including 1) predisposing conditions (sociocultural factors: Social learning, misconceptions about fertility and childbirth, preventing stigma), 2) causal conditions (individual factors: lack of knowledge on how to prevent pregnancy, improper use of contraceptives, inadequate knowledge about the risks of pregnancy in adolescence, fear of the side effects of using contraceptives, filling the vacuum of loneliness, family factors: husband's and his family's pressure, committing her husband to life, consolidating her position in family), 3) intervening conditions (structural factors: no barriers to pregnancy, difficult access to contraceptives), 4) strategies and interactions (positive reactions: trying to prepare herself for raising a child, taking better care of herself and her child, negative reactions: trying to kill herself and the kid, fear and concealment), and 5) consequences (destructive consequences: threats to the health of the child, threat to mother's health, inadequate access to health services, constructive consequences: increase of support, strengthen the sense of empowerment). …”

Soil classification in a seismically active environment based on join analysis of seismic parameters by Y. Asnawi, A.V.H. Simanjuntak, U. Muksin, M. Okubo, S.I. Putri, S. Rizal, M. Syukri

“…The classification of soil properties from the combination of shear wave and horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio data correlates with the geology of the study area.CONCLUSION: The Banda Aceh city, flanked by the two active faults, is characterized by low shear wave velocity and high amplification because the city stands on the sedimentary basin; thus, it requires a detailed investigation prior to constructing infrastructures. The other clusters are located on the relatively less vulnerable areas, indicated by moderate shear wave velocity and moderate to low seismic vulnerability indexes. …”

miRNA-541-5p regulates myocardial ischemia–reperfusion injury by targeting ferroptosis by ZhiYu Zhao, BoXia Li, DianWei Cheng, YuFang Leng

“…Subsequently, the target gene miRNA-541-5p was obtained by miRNA sequencing screening, and further validation revealed that miRNA-541-5p expression was increased in the myocardial tissues of rats in the I/R injury model group compared with those of rats in the NC group, P < 0.05. Subsequently, by constructing H9C2 cell lines with miRNA-541-5p overexpression and miRNA-541-5p expression inhibition, miRNA-541-5p expression was inversely correlated with the survival of H9C2 cells after hypoxia-reoxygenation injury. miRNA-541-5p up-regulation led to a decrease in SOD and GSH, an increase in ferritin and MDA, and an accumulation of ROS. wb and qRT-PCT demonstrated that high miRNA-541-5p expression up-regulated the expression of protein/mRNA expression of ACSL-4, HO-1, ferritin, and TFR-1, but down-regulated protein/mRNA expression of GPX-4. …”
