Abstract	Abstract Background Drug-related psychiatric comorbidity or death among adolescents has grown to become a public health threat in Taiwan. In an atmosphere of abstinence, few alternatives or rehabilitative options for troubled young people have caused many juveniles to be driven away from home and placed in closed institutions. The intersectionality of illegal substance use, deviant behaviours, and criminal offences among adjudicated adolescents is a challenge for the development of adolescent users’ harm reduction strategies. In addition, the relationships among the adolescents, their families, and practitioners might be undermined by coercive and mandatory court measures. As developing a harm reduction approach includes minimizing the negative effects on not only adolescents and also their families, this study aims to explore Taiwanese practitioners’ perspectives of family-based programmes for drug-using adolescents. Methods This study adopted a qualitative approach. Through face-to-face interviews and a focus group, accounts were collected from 28 key informants working in youth delinquency. The interviews were transcribed for analysis using qualitative analysis software, namely NVivo10. Results Practitioners tend to refer to an “adolescent-centred model” when describing their work with drug-using young people. From the frontline practitioners’ descriptions, the families of those youth needing treatment services are often vulnerable and disadvantaged. These families are seldom onboard because of low readiness and scarce resources. Although a legal framework is in place, resources, workforce, and programmes to engage and involve parents in the intervention are lacking. Despite the obstacles, practitioners have utilized a variety of strategies to obtain limited success, such as parent meetings, resources referrals, parent counselling, court support, voluntary parenting courses, illicit substance information sharing, and home visits. Practitioners also pointed out that therapeutic interventions are more effective ...

Abstract	Background: Drug-related psychiatric comorbidity or death among adolescents has grown to become a public health threat in Taiwan. In an atmosphere of abstinence, few alternatives or rehabilitative options for troubled young people have caused many juveniles to be driven away from home and placed in closed institutions. The intersectionality of illegal substance use, deviant behaviours, and criminal offences among adjudicated adolescents is a challenge for the development of adolescent users' harm reduction strategies. In addition, the relationships among the adolescents, their families, and practitioners might be undermined by coercive and mandatory court measures. As developing a harm reduction approach includes minimizing the negative effects on not only adolescents and also their families, this study aims to explore Taiwanese practitioners' perspectives of family-based programmes for drug-using adolescents. Methods: This study adopted a qualitative approach. Through face-to-face interviews and a focus group, accounts were collected from 28 key informants working in youth delinquency. The interviews were transcribed for analysis using qualitative analysis software, namely NVivo10. Results: Practitioners tend to refer to an "adolescent-centred model" when describing their work with drug-using young people. From the frontline practitioners' descriptions, the families of those youth needing treatment services are often vulnerable and disadvantaged. These families are seldom onboard because of low readiness and scarce resources. Although a legal framework is in place, resources, workforce, and programmes to engage and involve parents in the intervention are lacking. Despite the obstacles, practitioners have utilized a variety of strategies to obtain limited success, such as parent meetings, resources referrals, parent counselling, court support, voluntary parenting courses, illicit substance information sharing, and home visits. Practitioners also pointed out that therapeutic interventions are more effective than coercive or mandatory interventions for adolescents and also for their families. Conclusions: Since most practitioners have an adolescent-centred work principle, their work with parents falls into professional-centred or family-allied work models. It is therefore suggested that resources be reallocated to involve parent counselling and intense treatment instead of mandatory parental education.

Abstract	It has been difficult to establish velocity models that use reflected seismic signals with advanced prediction ahead of the tunnel face. The accurate establishment of advanced velocity models face issues including artifacts in migration results and incorrect calculation of velocity. This study presents a polarization migration velocity model building method to solve these issues. First, the artifacts in migration interfaces were eliminated by the polarization characteristics of three-component reflected signals. Second, the optimum velocity ahead of the tunnel face was determined according to the energy stack characteristics of common interface points. Finally, the velocity model was established based on optimum velocity parameters and corresponding polarization migration interfaces using a three-dimensional and three-component numerical simulation conducted on faults with high dip and different inclinations. The results indicate that the velocity errors in the advanced velocity model were 1 and 2% for each of the two layers, and the position errors of the two interfaces were smaller than 3 and 2%. The experimental results of the Maanshan tunnel verified the effectiveness of the polarization migration velocity model building method.

Abstract	Victim support services, in mature societies, aim to help victims recover after suffering a traumatic event. The effectiveness of victim support has traditionally been evaluated through rates of service utilization and incidence of psychopathology such as posttraumatic stress disorder. The current study, instead, inquires into service users' unmet needs and satisfaction, and identifies factors that mediate such subjective measures, using data from a national cross-sectional survey on victims and surviving families of violent crime in Taiwan in 2011. The results reveal: 1) a gap between available and expected services, and 2) a correlation between service utilization and satisfaction, both consistent with previous studies. In addition, the current study identifies unsatisfied service users: They are homicidally bereaved, live with their spouse, suffer from post-crime financial distress and are still waiting for a court verdict on the incident. Victim support that helps victims heal through tailored services incorporating relationship counseling is proposed.

Abstract	Rationale: Transverse spinal cord infarction (SCI) is rare but highly disabling. Aortic thrombosis was described as one of the most common etiologies. Thromboembolic complications associated with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) have been reported. Patient concerns: A previously well, 64-year-old man who was given the treatment of IVIG (0.4 g/kg/d for 5 days) for exfoliative dermatitis 2 weeks before, progressively developed flaccid paraplegia of lower extremities, loss of all sensations below T3 level and urinary incontinence within 50 minutes. Diagnoses: A diagnosis of SCI and pulmonary embolism was made. IVIG was considered the possible cause. Interventions: Anticoagulation treatment and continuous rehabilitation were administered. Outcomes: The neurologic deficiency of the patient was partially improved at the 3-year follow-up. Lessons: The rapid development of severe deficits within 4 hours mostly contributes to the diagnosis of SCI. Heightened awareness of possible thrombotic events is encouraged for a month-long period following IVIG therapy.

Abstract	Victim support services, in mature societies, aim to help victims recover after suffering a traumatic event. The effectiveness of victim support has traditionally been evaluated through rates of service utilization and incidence of psychopathology such as posttraumatic stress disorder. The current study, instead, inquires into service users' unmet needs and satisfaction, and identifies factors that mediate such subjective measures, using data from a national cross-sectional survey on victims and surviving families of violent crime in Taiwan in 2011.

Abstract	Abstract Background Prior to the passing of 2009 Human Trafficking Prevention Act (HTPA), human trafficking was underestimated in Taiwan. In the past, domestic trafficking in women and girls often targeted vulnerable groups such as young girls from poor families or minority groups. Since the 1990s, an increasing flow of immigrant women, mainly from Vietnam and Indonesia and some from China, into Taiwan has created a new group of Human Trafficking victims. The current study intends to identify, describe, and categorize reported and prosecuted human trafficking cases involving women and girls according to the HTPA in Taiwan. Methods Using the court proceedings of prosecuted trafficking in women and girls cases under Taiwan’s HTPA from all 21 districts in Taiwan from 2009 to 2012 under the title keyword of ‘Human Trafficking’, this current study aims to categorize different patterns of existing trafficking in women and girls in Taiwan. The analysis is based on 37 court cases, involving 195 victimized women and girls and 118 perpetrators. Results This study identifies six forms of Human Trafficking victims according to their country of origin, vulnerability status, and means of transport. This study found that women and girls suffer from both labor and sexual exploitation, from mainly domestic male perpetrators. While sexual exploitation is more evenly distributed among citizens and immigrants and affects both adults and minors, labor exploitation seems to be an exclusive phenomenon among women immigrant workers in the data. Conclusions Human Trafficking cases in Taiwan share many of the similarities of Human Trafficking in other regions, which are highly associated with gender inequality and gender-based vulnerability.

Abstract	Objective To investigate the effect of miR-142-3p on the apoptosis of rat pancreatic exocrine cell line AR42J by regulating Hmgb1. Methods AR42J cells were divided into blank group (blank), acute pancreatitis model group (AP, 100 nmol/L cerulein for 24 h), and then transfected with miR-142-3p mimics, mimics NC,miR-142-3p inhibitor and inhibitor NC, respectively. The cells in the model group were recorded as miR-142-3p mimics group, mimics NC group, miR-142-3p inhibitor group and inhibitor NC.The expression of miR-142-3p in cells was detected by RT-qPCR. The protein expressions of HMGB1, caspase-3, Bax and Bcl-2 were detected by Western blot. Hoechst staining was used to determine cell apoptosis. The apoptosis rate of cells was detected by flow cytometry. The targeting relationship between miR-142-3p and Hmgb1 was determined by dual luciferase reporter gene assay. Results Compared with blank control group, the expression level of miR-142-3p in the AP group was significantly down-regulated (P＜ 0.01), the expression level of HMGB1 and caspase-3 proteins was up-regulated(P＜ 0.05), the expression level of Bax protein was significantly up-regulated (P＜ 0.01), the expression level of Bcl-2 protein was significantly decreased(P＜ 0.01) and the apoptosis rate increased significantly (P＜ 0.01). Compared with the mimics NC group, the level of miR-142-3p in the miR-142-3p mimics group was significantly up-regulated(P＜ 0.01), the expression of HMGB, caspase-3 and Bax proteins was significantly down-regulated (P＜ 0.01), the expression of Bcl-2 protein was up-regulated (P＜ 0.05), and the apoptosis rate decreased significantly (P＜ 0.01).Compared with inhibitor NC group, the expression level of miR-142-3p in miR-142-3p inhibitor group was down-regulated (P＜ 0.05), the expression levels of HMGB1, caspase-3 and Bax proteins were significantly up-regulated (P＜ 0.01), the expression level of Bcl-2 protein was decreased (P＜ 0.05) and the apoptosis rate increased significantly (P＜ 0.01) .The dual luciferase reporter gene assay showed ...
