Investigating the Concept of “Progressive Development of Law” In the System of International Human Rights Law and Comparing It with the General International Law by Amirhossein Mohebali

“…While in international law, progressive development brings to mind the concept of establishment and creation of rights.Examining keywords such as "progressive development of rights" and identifying and explaining their exact meaning in the subject area will have the benefit that human rights obligators, who are the governments in most cases, understand the nature and scope of their obligations correctly and implement them in a timely manner and in accordance with the protectionist goals of human rights.By explaining the characteristics of international law and international human rights law, The present study works on the semantic difference of the term "progressive development of rights" in international human rights law and in the field of general international law, and the alternatives to progressive development in international human rights law and what they mean.Examining keywords such as "progressive development of rights" and identifying and explaining their exact meaning in the subject area will have the benefit that human rights obligators, who are the governments in most cases, understand the nature and scope of their obligations correctly and implement them in a timely manner and in accordance with the protectionist goals of human rights.By explaining the characteristics of international law and international human rights law, The present study works on the semantic difference of the term "progressive development of rights" in international human rights law and in the field of general international law, and the alternatives to progressive development in international human rights law and what they mean.…”

Predictive value of epicardial fat thickness for left ventricular reverse remodeling after radiofrequency ablation in atrial fibrillation patients with left ventricular hypertrophy by Ke Hu, Wenhui Wang, Junping Zhen, Chunsong Kang

“…[Results] A total of 28 patients who did not achieve reverse remodeling were included in the control group, and 22 patients who achieved reverse remodeling were included in the reverse remodeling group.There were significant differences in age, atrial fibrillation classification, duration of atrial fibrillation, left atrial diameter (LAD), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter index (LVEDI), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), platelet distribution width(PDW), red cell distribution width, fibrinogen to albumin ratio (FAR) and EFT between the two groups (P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that EFT, LAD, LVEDI, NLR, hsCRP, PDW and FAR were independent factors for left ventricular reverse remodeling(P<0.05).The cut-off value of EFT for predicting postoperative left ventricular reverse remodeling was 0.848, sensitivity was 95.5%, specificity was 89.3%, and AUC was 0.937 (95% CI: 0.868-0.983). …”
